At this time, Wang Lun and the others in front had fled into the reeds again.

In the rear, the Liangshan bandits who had originally ambushed the new forbidden army were also dead, surrendered, and were wiped out.

Yes, the new Forbidden Army was once in danger of being attacked on its back. However, in the face of absolute strength, such a trap cannot really bind the new forbidden army.

As one of the three strange books, the Book of Xuannu Tianshu, in the legend of martial arts, is a classic that explains the art of war and strategy. In fact, this book is explaining various tactics and strategies to reveal a core idea, that is: strength is king, don't be superstitious about strategy.

Just as according to the original trajectory of history, after that, the Jin soldiers and Mongol soldiers went south to attack the Song Dynasty. In terms of strategy and the number of soldiers, the Song Dynasty could also adopt tactics and strategies such as "luring the enemy into depth" and "ambushing from all sides".

However, in the face of the absolute strength of the enemy, the Song army could only be defeated like a mountain, defeating all the way until the fall of the Song Dynasty.

Strength, and only strength, is the fundamental basis for victory in war.

Although the Liangshan bandits commanded by Wang Lun were much stronger than the bandits who generally occupied the mountains at that time, they were nothing more than a rabble after all. In the face of the strong combat strength of the new forbidden army, although Wang Lun's strategy successfully trapped the new forbidden army in the danger of being attacked on the back of the enemy, it was inevitably defeated in the end.

After eliminating the bandits in ambush in the rear, when Wu Song's order to launch another fire attack was issued, the soldiers immediately carried it out and brought arson materials from Houfa again.

"Fan Rui! What about Fan Rui? Wu Song asked.

"Fan Rui is here!" Fan Rui quickly ran over an earthen ditch. He took the land route, and he had just killed and raised, and he had already hung the lottery.

Wu Song said: "Give me another observation, how long can the southeast be scraped?" ”

Fan Rui didn't pretend to be a ghost this time, he looked at the sky directly, opened his mouth and added air, as if he was tasting the density of water vapor in the air, and looked around again, closed his eyes and pondered, obviously nervously estimating in his heart.

The sky is unpredictable. Even with supercomputers in later generations, it is difficult to accurately predict the direction of the wind in a place. Fan Rui can only rely on experience to predict, and he is naturally apprehensive.

Wu Song could naturally see the concerns in Fan Rui's heart, slowed down his tone, and said, "Fan Rui, you just have to say, I don't blame you for making mistakes!" ”

This remark dispelled the concerns in Fan Rui's heart. He pondered for a moment to show his prudence, and said, "Report to the general, this southeast wind may still blow for an hour, right?" I'm not sure ...... though."

"An hour is enough!" Wu Song smiled and immediately ordered: "Ignite!" ”

The soldiers of the new forbidden army, who had already prepared, immediately set fire to the arson materials again, and set a raging fire in the remaining reeds.

It was almost noon, and the southeast wind was blowing stronger than in the morning. The fire burned more violently than before, thanks to the wind.

In the midst of the reeds, a panicked cry was soon heard.

"Arrows! Wherever there's a sound, shoot me an arrow there! Wu Song ordered again.

This order made the officers and soldiers of the new ban feel good.

Before, they suffered from the enemy on their backs, but they did not suffer less from the arrows of the Liangshan bandits. Now, it's their turn to get revenge. The soldiers immediately picked up their bows and arrows and shot indiscriminately at the reeds where there might be people. Although it was a random shot, it was also very dangerous to shoot through a dense rain of arrows.

"Ahh In the reeds, there were screams one after another.

Fan Rui's ability to look at the clouds and understand the weather, it is really not covered. Wu Song was also a little worried at first that it would be difficult for him to be 100% accurate, but he didn't want to, the weather was exactly as he predicted, for a full hour, and the southeast wind was blowing all the time.

With the help of this southeast wind, the remaining reeds in the water pool swung and quickly fell into a sea of fire. Large expanses of reeds were quickly dyed to ashes. The surface of the water is completely exposed, and the canals that extend in all directions are also visible.

Confident that the previous ambush was enough to resist any attacking officers and soldiers, Wang Lun did not arrange a large number of ambushes by digging holes in the canals in this reed swing that belonged to the rear. Even if there are ambushes, the new forbidden army has learned the previous lessons, and it is impossible to be fooled again.

Following the fire, the new Praetorian Army moved forward. If you find a remnant of the Liangshan ambush, you will be eliminated immediately.

In the water pool, there were many corpses of Liangshan bandits, some of whom were shot by arrows, and some of them could not escape, and were burned to death by fire and smoke. In fact, it was only after the reeds caught fire that the smoke became even more deadly. With the help of the southeast wind, the fire has not yet burned, and the smoke has already spread all over the world, and many Liangshan bandits were actually choked to death by this smoke.

However, Wang Lun, Li Kui and other Liangshan bandit leaders did not see any of them. Wu Yong didn't see it either. Apparently, they all managed to escape from Reeddang.

But this fierce fire is not as simple as burning all over the reeds. With the help of the wind, the fire burned over the reeds, and then spread to the shore of the water, until it burned towards the mountain.

The number on Liang Mountain is lush. Once ignited by the fire, smoke billowed and flames filled the air.

At this time, even without the help of the southeast wind, the fire will rise, and it is already overwhelming. The entire Liangshan is afraid that it will all fall into a sea of fire.

Eight hundred miles of water was originally a natural danger, and it was immediately undefendable in the face of fire attack.

What terrain is dangerous, what is easy to defend and difficult to attack, in the face of fierce fire, all are vulnerable.

Looking at the raging fire, some of the officers and soldiers of the new ban were cruel and belligerent by nature, and they couldn't help but clap their hands and applaud, and some were very excited, but they deeply felt the danger of the fire, and they couldn't help but feel chills.

At this time, Wen Huanzhang and other staff officers also came over. When they saw Wu Song, they all felt admiration: "The general's clever calculation!" This Shuibo Liangshan is so dangerous, if you don't take fire to attack, no matter how many military horses you come, you don't want to attack it! ”

Wu Song looked at the fire that swept towards the mountain, but his expression seemed a little strange, and said to Wen Huanzhang: "Strategist, you say, are we a little too damaging to the ecology?" ”

"Ecological destruction?" Wen Huanzhang and a cadre of staff officers and soldiers did not understand.

Wu Song came back to his senses and explained, "It's just a pity. The terrain of this Liangshan is dangerous, and the scenery is really beautiful. Isn't it a pity to be burned to the ground by this fire now! ”

Only then did everyone understand what he meant, and they immediately said, this is not a pity. After the attack on the lower Liang Mountain, the number on the mountain is replanted. As for the reeds that are 800 miles away, they are not burned by wildfires, and they are blown and reborn by the spring breeze, and it will not take long to grow again.

There are even some people who can pat on the back, and they have praised General Wu Song for being merciful and cherishing material resources. Such a general is the real general, and it is really the blessing of the Great Song Dynasty.
