On the side of the Xi-Qi coalition army, they were inexplicably excited to see their own people on the other side approaching the Tang army camp, and even the cavalry in the queue behind the Khitan who kept howling were dumbfounded at the moment, and the compatriots on the opposite bank were crowded on the dock to avoid the fire at this moment, and even some people who couldn't stand directly ran to the giant tree, and those who couldn't stand jumped straight into the Sanggan River with people and horses, trampled to death, and the drowned people and horses were simply countless.

And the fire on the other side is still spreading, but fortunately, the trebuchets of the Tang army have stopped throwing, it seems that they also know that the dock cannot be burned, or for some other reason, in short, as long as they avoid this wave of fire, they may be able to make a comeback.

But these remnants of the soldiers are already dead, fleeing, even if they are still alive, they have basically lost their fighting spirit, just this cup of tea, the whole four formations of Xi Qi coalition army were swallowed by the sea of fire, even the eighth array of cavalry who had just entered the dock were forced to retreat constantly, most of the people who trampled to death and drowned were the eighth array of Xi cavalry, they didn't want to be burned to death, but there was no way out. The ninth formation, that is, the last formation of the Xi cavalry, has blocked the vicinity of the dock of the Xi Qi coalition army, but the eighth formation is constantly pushing back, and the two groups of people have fallen into a scene where you squeeze over and I squeeze over.

Suddenly, the Xi Qi coalition army fell into chaos and panic, and the news quickly spread to Li Huaixiu's tent, this news was like a thunderbolt, and finally the Khitan generals who had fallen into various fantasies were summoned back to reality from fantasy, and now they are facing the danger of possible defeat, rather than the dream of going south to the Central Plains.

The Tang army only lost a few thousand heavy infantry in the war, and many of them were engulfed in flames caused by their own people, and almost half of the casualties on their side were almost half, but they did not even touch the edge of the Tang army's camp, which can be said to be a foregone conclusion.

There are not a few examples of defeat because of fire attack in history, in terms of the Three Kingdoms, there are the famous Battle of Chibi and the Battle of Yiling, the side that originally occupied an absolute advantage, were defeated under the fire attack, and now they encounter the same situation as those predecessors, although they do not occupy any advantage, but they Xi Qi coalition army is cavalry after all, combat effectiveness is much higher than that of the Tang army, or it can be said that there is a battle power, but under a wave of fire attack rout, finally let them realize that the Tang Army's terrible is not only limited to their soldiers, but also their various advanced weapons, not only this catapult, the Tang army should still have bed crossbows and all kinds of sharp siege weapons, but the latter should not have much chance to show up.

The herald who ran into the tent to report the news was kneeling there with a sweat at the moment, waiting for Li Huaixiu's orders, this sweat was not only because he ran back and forth to consume physical strength, or he was anxious about the situation on the other side, but also because he was afraid of Li Huaixiu, he was afraid that Li Huaixiu would kill him if he suddenly became angry, and it was not without this kind of thing in the past.

However, after the Khitan generals looked at Li Huaixiu on the main seat with some fear, they found that this guy was constantly knocking on the tea table next to him with the index finger of his right hand, covering his chin with his left hand, as if he was thinking about something. This was one of his habitual actions, and he would involuntarily do so when he was in deep thought, and the subordinates present and several generals who were more familiar with him knew that he had this habit.

It can be said that this is a proof of the current ability of the puppet worm, if it were in the past, it would never be possible for it to retain any of the habits of the host, which is equivalent to saying that although it is wearing the human skin of the host, in fact, the heart of the body is already his puppet worm. However, it is now able to keep the host in a normal state on the basis of controlling the host's mind, but everything is in accordance with its wishes, which shows that his ability has reached a high level under the guidance of Huan Chenyu.

At least even Ye Chengcheng and Huan Chenyu themselves, if they were present without knowing, they wouldn't have seen anything wrong with Li Huaixiu at all.

I saw that after pondering for a moment, he finally gave an order to the herald: "Let the next few formations continue to charge." ”

The herald was stunned, and asked as if he hadn't heard clearly: "Great chief, you, what did you say?"

The surrounding generals were also stunned, they thought that Li Huaixiu could have any good ideas after thinking about it for so long a day, after all, Li Huaixiu's brain was the best among them, and he had won a lot of battles with the Khitan over the years, but he didn't expect that such an order would suddenly pop up now, so that they didn't accept it all of a sudden, in other words, wouldn't this let the rest of the cavalry continue to die? Moreover, many of them present were generals from the back formations, which meant that they also had to rush up to fight the Tang army, instead of hiding in the back and waiting to go south to the Central Plains.

"Yes, Great Chief, is this matter to be discussed?"

"Why, you who were still discussing how to divide the spoils in the future just now are now afraid of death? Isn't it because it was the Xi clan who rushed to the front, isn't it because you can leave behind and pick up ready-made? Now the time has come for you to go up! Since the Tang army did not continue to use trebuchets, it would not be long before the fire could be extinguished, and the iron thistles and horse fences leading to the Tang army's camp should have burned out almost to the ground. The generals of the tenth formation and the next few formations are now back in the ranks for me!" Li Huaixiu scolded loudly.

Now he is the commander-in-chief of the Xi Qi coalition army, since he has said so, then these guys naturally have no room to speak, although they are afraid to death, they can only carry out Li Huaixiu's orders, otherwise Li Huaixiu will kill a few guys who do not obey the order on the spot, and kill chickens to show the monkey.

Suddenly, half of the people in the handsome tent, which was originally quite lively, went out in the dark, and the handsome tent also fell into a dead silence.

In such an embarrassing atmosphere, the remaining generals in the next few formations couldn't sit still, because Li Huaixiu was blushing and continued to knock on the table with his right index finger, maybe he might suddenly get angry at any time, so these guys suddenly thought of an excuse and planned to hurry out of the tent and return to their respective teams.
