Chapter 54: The Fire Begins
Things are completely different in reverse, the Southern Regions Army has won a big victory, at least Zhang Meng will always be invincible, as for how he will explain the distress message that Gu Song received, it is not Qiao Yue's concern, Zhang Meng will definitely handle this aspect well.
Qiao Yue continued: "We are here to celebrate the success of the army, nothing else has been done, we will rush to Jiangtuo Town after putting off the lights, we will meet each other there, the victory of the army should enjoy such treatment, they are eligible for such treatment."
Remember... Let's forget the news of the arson, I already explained it before the people on the river went out, and I don't want to hear anyone talk about it again. β
After Yan SΓΉ's explanation, the fat girl helped her to walk to the carriage not far away, and the coachman took out a horse stool and put it on the ground, waiting respectfully for Qiao Yue to come over.
There is a kind of artistic beauty when the Kong Ming lantern is raised, a raging fire rises on the burning cotton, and the heat of the flame pushes the oilcloth to the ball, and the people on both sides try to let go slowly when they feel a faint pulling force that wants to get rid of their hands.
Beautiful, really beautiful, the Kong Ming lanterns that rose into the air one by one are like women in great costumes, there is no irritability rising into the sky, but the lotus step slowly rises into the air, hundreds of Kong Ming lanterns rise into the air at the same time, the scene is so spectacular, Qiao Yue can't help but stop and watch for a long time.
Flying far away, like a twinkling star, cute and a little naughty, not long after hearing someone in the mountains shouting: "Gone fire..."
At this time, Qiao Yue instructed the coachman to wave the horsewhip, planning things in people, and success in heaven, so he could only pray secretly for his eldest brother in his heart.
The agitation on the mountain became louder and louder, and an open fire had begun to light up in the woods, and the flames were getting higher and higher, and it didn't take long for the entire Black Cliff Mountain to seem to have turned into a golden mountain, and the light he released could be seen far away, and the raging flames illuminated the surroundings as if it were day.
The flames that soared into the sky blinded their eyes, and no one could even notice the flames that were still falling from the sky, and the wind helped the fire to grow, and the fire grew strong, and the raging fire burned all over the mountains.
The people in the mountains began to be chaotic, from the beginning of the fire to flee for their lives, but in the midst of the fire, where is there a way to escape, thousands of fire points, front and back are blocked by flames, and plumes of smoke fill the mountains and forests.
The fire drained the air of oxygen, and the sweaty Black Knife Gang minions scurried left and right in the mountains before falling into the pine needle-covered woodland, and the fire would return them to nature.
It wasn't until a few fires fell into the reeds that the scene was completely chaotic, and I don't know when more than 20 fireboats appeared on the river, and the time was chosen very cleverly, just when the Black Knife Gang was in chaos, ready to desperately withdraw from the reeds, and when they entered the river, they found that the outside had been sealed.
More than 20 fireboats were connected by iron cables, and they were constantly approaching the side of the Black Knife Gang, and the fireboats lined up just blocked the exit of the entire water bend.
Chu Yao, who hurriedly woke up from his sleep, walked out of the cabin and saw the fire all over the sky, and the smoke choked him coughing a few times, so he hurriedly ordered: "Don't mess up, let's drive the boat together and break the blockade in front, as long as we retreat to the river, these fires can't help us..."
The rabble can not be compared with the well-trained imperial army, the chaotic black knife gang minions killed and injured a lot of people jumped into the water to escape, the river guests are all very good men in the water, you can sink into the water for a long time with a breath, this is a very good way to escape.
Chu Xuan, who had finally organized the three big boats, began to order the ships to crash outside, but at this moment, there was a deafening drum sound on the dark river, as if many people were shouting: "Welcome to the triumph of Lord Zhang's victorious army..."
"There is an ambush... There is an ambush..."Chu Liang stood on the board of the boat and jumped his feet in a hurry, and when he saw his subordinates jumping into the water one by one, he was so anxious: "If we lose the boat, we will not have any power to fight back when we enter the river, and we will become a live target for others, don't jump, don't jump..."
"Ahh
Feng Niangzi appeared beside Chu Liang with Mo Zhizhou's child in her arms, and she said: "For today's plan, we can only kill back and take back the tidal flats, only with the help of that tidal flats can we escape this monstrous fire, and there is no other way to go." β
"Haha... Form a formation, release the arrows..."
The Southern Regions Army, which had been aggrieved for a few days, finally found an opportunity to vent, and the bows and arrows in their hands finally had a place to use.
The subordinates of the Black Knife Gang who pounced on him were shot into hedgehogs in a blink of an eye, Zhang Chong was very proud, he didn't know who the generals who came to the rescue outside, and he really admired him for coming up with such a vicious strategy.
Oh, no, this is not a vicious strategy, this is a strategy to arrange troops, just before Chu Yi humiliated him like this.
"Haha...", laughed: "Chu Lao'er, you're here!" Didn't you say that you were slightly better than Lao Tzu in terms of arranging troops? Come and see who of us is better. β
Zhang Chong hid behind the heavy archers, moved a large rock and sat steadily, smiling at the waves of Black Knife Gang subordinates who rushed over to send them to death.
A big fire fought, Chu Ming's hair was burned, and he almost fell into the fire, the big ship was already on fire, and finally the bow of the boat rushed out of the reeds and saw that a large number of his men had been shot dead on the beach.
A mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, and he shouted in despair: "What a vicious method, such a vicious scheme, there is a kind of battle with Lao Tzu for three hundred rounds, they all have old mothers, wives and children, they are all living lives, is it good to let them live?" β
"Haha..."
Zhang Chong laughed: "Now a fool is fighting alone with you, and when the fire is over, you can still afford to hold a knife to duel with Zhang, Zhang is a good man." β
Qiao Shan snorted coldly: "Blood debts and blood repayment, the men of my Southern Regions Army also have wives and children, Qiao said that he would use your skull to make a wine cup to comfort their undead..."
With a sigh of anger, a straight big horizontal knife was pulled out of Qiao Shan's back, and as soon as everyone's eyes flickered, they saw Chu Yuren's head falling from the big boat opposite, and his body spurted a high column of blood, and he fell into the fire after taking two steps.
Speaking of Chu Ming's head, Qiao Shan looked up to the sky and laughed: "Chu Yi is dead, if you don't surrender, you won't be killed..."
"Shoot or kill..."
The sound echoed one after another, and the sound of shaking the mountains was so frightened that the souls of the people were scattered, and the men of the Black Knife Gang, who were burned to black, immediately surrendered. R1152
