Immediately, it is unknown who dropped one torch first, and then hundreds of torches were thrown down the city at the same time.

Seeing this situation, the Japanese soldiers who were fighting naturally knew what was going on, and immediately thought of retreating! But it was too late for them, and the city was already burning with gas.

At this moment, the horn of the enemy army on the opposite side also sounded in the camp of the army, but it was already too late, those enemy soldiers trapped on the city wall were still fighting at the moment and could not go back, waiting for them would be the siege of all the soldiers of the Xuanwu Legion, and those soldiers who were preparing to come up on the ladder and those enemy soldiers on the side of the city wall could not retreat. Because at this moment they fell into the sea of fire, and were swallowed up by the fire sea of fire. In an instant, there were terrible screams from the city.

Seeing this situation, the enemy soldiers on the city tower were immediately confused, and in an instant, they fell into the encirclement and suppression of the Xuanwu Legion's men and soldiers!

And several officers of the enemy camp over there were so angry that their faces changed color when they saw this scene, and the general known as Matsui was no longer black at this moment, but even turned green, and he stared at the fire opposite and his own soldiers who were flashing and howling in the sea of fire, and couldn't help but be angry: "Okay, you Xuanwu Legion, you are ruthless enough!"

However, in such a fire, it can't solve the anger in my heart. And the few people around him were also full of resentment, but there was no place to do it.

The enemy soldiers on the city wall were quickly eliminated by the Xuanwu Legion, but they did not stop and immediately threw the corpses of these enemy soldiers into the sea of fire.

"It's good to be in time!"

Seeing such a result, Long Aotian said to himself, but he didn't see a trace of a victorious smile on his face, he knew that after today, maybe he would have to bear thousands of infamy, maybe he would be spurned by the world, but he didn't regret it! The battlefield was originally a cruel place, and the ruthlessness towards the enemy was tolerance for himself! For the battlefield, a place where either you die or I die, Long Aotian didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what he did.

"Hey, Aotian, let's go, let's go and tidy up the scene together!"

Bird, who was standing beside Long Aotian, also sighed helplessly when he saw Long Aotian's appearance, Long Aotian's expression came into his eyes, and he naturally knew what Long Aotian was thinking now!

In the end, the Xuanwu Legion won the victory, but their losses were not small, and after the final statistics, they once again lost more than 3,000 soldiers in this battle, including 3,000 cavalry commanders and 21 captains! In addition to yesterday's losses, the Xuanwu Legion paid the lives of 8,000 soldiers in the past two days, including a battalion commander and 7 thousand cavalry commanders and 59 captains! The loss of these officers made the Xuanwu Legion also a missing and numerous leader. But the losses of the enemy in the past two days are not small, especially today, the soldiers who died in the sea of fire alone are at least thousands, plus the previous losses, they have also lost more than 17,000 soldiers in the past two days.

After nearly two hours of tidying up, the battlefield on the city wall was finally cleared, and the sun was still high in the air at this moment. The sea of fire in front of the city wall still did not disappear, and the bursts of smoke looked a little strange under the illumination of Yangguan, and the strong stench of the burning corpse also made everyone unbearable.

"Okay, it is estimated that this fire has not disappeared so early, let's go and rest first, the soldiers on duty today will be reduced accordingly, there is no need for such people here to let them suffer here and let the rest of the soldiers wait under the city." ”

After collecting the battlefield, looking at the tired soldiers, Knowlton said to Kimchi, looking at this fire, there is no possibility for the enemy soldiers to attack during the day today.

After arranging the soldiers on duty, Long Aotian and the others also returned to their tents to rest under the leadership of Kimchi, and the two consecutive days of fighting really consumed a lot of their energy, and now they can be said to be physically and mentally exhausted.

The fire burned for a whole day, and the heavy stench spread to miles away, and the black smoke could be said to cover the sky in front of the city wall, and the corpses of tens of thousands of soldiers were reduced to ashes here.

After a good day's rest, Long Aotian finally woke up from his sleep in the evening, rubbing his sleepy eyes, he couldn't help but stretch a long lazy waist.

After going out to wash up, Long Aotian returned to Fangjian to prepare to practice, his strength must be recovered as soon as possible, only in this way can he fully use his strength in the next battle.

Sitting on the bed, Long Aotian quickly entered the state of cultivation.

"Report!"

Just when Long Aotian had just cultivated and felt that the internal qi in his body had recovered, he didn't have time to feel the refreshing feeling when he heard a cry from outside the door.

"What's the matter?"

Walking out the door, Long Aotian saw a soldier standing here waiting for him.

"General Kimchi taught you to go over to meetings!"

Seeing Long Aotian, the soldier's obvious face showed an expression of awe.

Seeing this expression, Long Aotian smiled bitterly, maybe he had touched them too deeply in the past two days.

"You go back and tell me I'll be right there!"

Immediately, Long Aotian turned around and walked back to the house, took out a suit of armor and put it on, and hurried towards Kimchi.

a;;;;;;;; >

"Aotian, you're here. “

Seeing Long Aotian come in, Kimchi said with a smile.

As soon as he walked into Kimchi's handsome camp, Long Aotian saw that all the officers of the forward battalion had arrived here at this moment. However, Long Aotian could obviously see the strange look in everyone's eyes when they looked at him, maybe he felt more of this kind of look in the past two days, so he didn't go to his heart, maintained his normal heart, and did what should be a vacant position for himself.

"Okay, Aotian is here, then let's start the meeting!"

After seeing Long Aotian take his seat, Kimchi Na said to everyone.

"After these two days of fighting, we can say that we have initially stopped the enemy's advance, especially yesterday's battle, I think the enemy must have suffered a lot of blows, after deciding that we plan to launch a counterattack tomorrow night, today it is estimated that those enemies will not be able to attack us, so we have plenty of time to prepare. “

Thinking of the scene where the city wall has not been extinguished and occasionally there is a trace of flames, Kimchi couldn't help but smile bitterly, after a day of burning, the field below was burned out of an open space, there was only a little unburned enemy armor scattered on the ground, thinking of the scorching heat of the city wall, he knew that it was impossible for the enemy to attack today, according to the current temperature, the temperature above would be dispersed at least until tomorrow!

After a pause, Kimchi continued: "After studying, we decided to launch a counterattack tomorrow night, when it will be a second head-to-head confrontation between us and the enemy, for this we have made a specific plan, that is, tomorrow night there will be our forward battalion and heavy cavalry and light cavalry charge, the archers of the infantry battalion behind will support our front battle, and the infantry side will also draw some personnel to help us charge." After two days of fighting, the soldiers of our forward battalion also lost 2,000 men, and we plan to send two thousand cavalry soldiers to go around the enemy's rear from the trail behind the mountain, and to disrupt the enemy's battle plan and formation from behind! Of course, these are secondary, and the main task of these two thousand cavalry is to find the enemy's granary and destroy it! In this way, if there is not enough food, the enemy will disorganize the camp, and then our battle will be much easier. ”

Kimchi named the main elements of the plan.

Hearing this news, everyone couldn't help but look at each other, this task is not easy to perform, not to mention the matter of the less granary, that is, two thousand horsemen in the enemy's rear, once detected, will be attacked by the enemy's devastating attack, the most important thing is that even if they are not detected, they will be surrounded by a heavy battle, after all, even if the enemy has suffered heavy losses in the past two days, they still have at least hundreds of thousands of troops, and it is impossible to drag all their forces in the front battle. And how much more will they go and burn down their granaries when the time comes?

"I know it's a difficult task, it's a tough one, but we have to do it, and we'll just send a few soldiers to burn down the granary. After all, there must be a heavy enemy surround there, so the smaller the target, the safer, but these people must be elite! The rest of the soldiers are just in the rear of the enemy army to attract their attention, you can not attack them, but you must attract their troops, if they turn around and hit you, you will flash, if you really can't do it, they will go into the mountains and forests, they should not go in there, if they go in, it will not be good for them if their army goes in. So in a word, you can eat a little bit of their troops, and if you can't eat them, run and let them chase them, so that the battle ahead can be easier!"

Kimchi, who knew that this task was difficult, said helplessly, after all, things are so simple to say, but it is difficult to do.

There was still silence.

"Okay, my last point is that tomorrow if we complete the mission, the team behind will retreat as soon as they see the mission completed, and the team in front of us will also retreat when they see the flames. The main task this time is to burn down the other party's granary, do you have anyone to say what you think now? Is there a thousand horsemen who have volunteered to accept this task?"

Seeing everyone's silent atmosphere, Kimchi asked, and at the same time looked at Long Aotian's side!

(Tomorrow's National Day,I can only bring you a change tomorrow night.,I want to see the military parade in the morning and go to the city in the afternoon, I hope you understand!haha;;;;; 8226; Let's witness the 60th anniversary of the motherland!)
