The overwhelming fireballs brought great panic to the people of Anfeng City, these arquebuses themselves were oily, difficult to extinguish, and rolled around after landing, and ignited as soon as they encountered combustibles, the fire was raging and unstoppable, and the people were helpless.

Cao Liang sensed that the situation was serious, and personally went down to the city to direct the firefighting, he knew that if it was not handled properly, the entire Anfeng City might be reduced to a sea of fire, and then they would have no place to live.

Moreover, all the food and grass supplies are in the city, and if it is destroyed by fire, the city will not be able to defend it.

Cao Liang rushed to the city and immediately mobilized the Wei army, which was resting, to extinguish the fire.

The houses in the castle are mostly made of wood, and once ignited, the fire is difficult to contain.

Cao Liang immediately made a decision, on the one hand, he organized the army to fight the fire, and on the other hand, he sent Deng Ai Shibao to lead the troops to the next block, and before the fire spread, all the houses in this block were demolished, creating an isolation belt to ensure the safety of important buildings such as the grain depot and the Taishou Mansion in the center of the city.

Cao Liang's method is similar to fighting a forest fire, and only by abandoning some buildings and blocking the source of the fire can the safety of the entire city be ensured.

Of course, the people whose houses were demolished were not satisfied, but Cao Liang quickly announced measures to resettle the people, temporarily resettle those homeless people in schools, school fields and barracks, and provide them with food and lodging.

The people soon accepted the arrangement and there were no more complaints. During the war, what kind of situation it was, the common people also knew very well, the city gate was on fire, and the pond fish were affected, and living in a place where wars were frequent, this awareness was still there.

Now Cao Liang thinks about the people and takes the initiative to provide resettlement conditions for the displaced people, in exchange for other generals, he will pick up your house if he doesn't agree, and there is no fart compensation, and the people are helpless.

Wei Bing also chose to demolish, on the way through which the fire spreads, clear out a blank area about ten zhang wide, and the removed masonry and wood can also be transported to the city wall as rolling wood stones, killing two birds with one stone.

The fireballs of the Wu army were constantly projected in, and the dwellings next to the city wall were already reduced to a sea of fire, and Cao Liang ordered the army and the people to retreat backwards, abandoning this area.

The fire attack of the Wu army was too fierce, it had just been extinguished here, and it was led there, the fire was monstrous, and it couldn't be saved, and Cao Liang had no choice but to retreat.

The barrier has been cleared, the fireball of the Wu army cannot be projected there, and the fire cannot spread, and the center of the city is temporarily safe.

As for the area next to the city wall, it can only be allowed to burn, anyway, there are so many things such as wood that cause fire, and after burning out, there is only a pile of rubble left, what else can be burned?

Seeing the fire in Anfeng City soaring into the sky and thick smoke billowing out, Zhuge Ke and Bu Qi couldn't help but be overjoyed, it seems that this fire attack plan is really wonderful, as long as Anfeng City is burned, see what the army guarding the city eats and drinks, and if it lasts for another three or two days, it will definitely take the initiative to surrender.

But to their surprise, the fire only burned for an hour before the fire attenuated significantly, and Shu Qiu thought that the Wei army was fighting the fire in the city and extinguished the fire. So he ordered the catapults to increase their projection and project more arquebuses into the city.

This time, Buqi watched expectantly, waiting for the flames to rise again.

But to his disappointment, after these fireballs were projected into it, they were like mud cows entering the sea, quietly disappearing, and there were still a lot of fires in the city before, but at this moment he couldn't even see the firelight, only a light smoke rising from it.

Bu Qi was completely puzzled, and ordered Wu Jun to erect a fight and send people to climb up to check the situation in Anfeng City.

The soldiers on Diao Dou quickly reported that the fire had only destroyed the houses closer to the city walls, and that the buildings in the center of the city were all unharmed, and that the Wei soldiers were pouring water on the ground in the city, and when the fireballs fell to the ground, they were quickly extinguished.

It turned out that Cao Liang waited until the fire was extinguished a little, and then ordered the soldiers to bring water and pour it on the ground.

There is a big pool in Anfeng City, called Lotus Pond, the water depth is several zhang, covering an area of dozens of acres, it is not difficult for Wei soldiers to get water, just wait in a long line, prepare countless wooden barrels, buckets of water through the relay transfer of Wei soldiers, and soon pass to the front of the fire.

After pouring the ground all wet, Wu Bing's arquebus ball fell and went out, and it didn't play any role anymore.

Cao Liang turned into a qualified firefighting captain, and finally restrained the fire attack of the Wu army, and An Fengcheng was finally in danger.

After Zhuge Ke heard the news, he was frustrated, originally thought that the fire attack plan could force the Wei army to surrender, but he didn't expect it to fall short, although the fire attack burned down many houses in Anfeng City, but for the grain depot, Taishou Mansion This key building can not be injured, and it does not cause a fatal blow to the Anfeng defenders, which is equivalent to failure.

In desperation, Zhuge Ke had to order the removal of the catapult, or strengthen the siege of the city, it seems that opportunistic tricks do not work, if you want to take Anfeng City, you have to attack it hard.

The offensive and defensive battles of Anfeng City have entered a white-hot level, and the Wu army has done its best to dispatch almost all the troops that can be dispatched, and launched round after round of fierce attacks on Anfeng City.

The city wall is densely lined with ladders or shooting arrows, and Wu soldiers in black military uniforms are hanging all over the city wall, looking from a distance, like black ants, trying to climb up.

When the logs fall, the black ant colony will drop a large patch, revealing the original color of the city wall. But soon, it will be filled with jet-black color, and the ant colony will climb tirelessly, one after the other, and will not be afraid of death.

The defense of the Wei army is quite tenacious, although the Wu army is like a locust like an ant, cutting endlessly, killing inexhaustibly, but the Wei army sticks to the defense line of the city, never retreats, stuck there, so that the Wu army is always unable to cross the thunder pool half a step.

The next day, the battle came to an end in the sunset, Zhuge Ke adopted Buqi's opinion, did not insist on continuing to fight at night, but he would never give up lightly, in the early morning of the third day, the Wu army will once again gather forces, launch a round of strong attacks, and vow not to give up until Anfeng City is taken.
