Chapter 545: Arson
Seeing that Leng Feng insisted on not letting him help carry the guilt, Zhang Zhongqing no longer insisted, remembering that he was going to set fire, so he said, "There is nothing more suitable for setting fire than Molotov cocktails, there are Molotov cocktails, even if one person puts a line of fire, it is not a problem." ”
"You brought Molotov cocktails with you?"
Leng Feng was very surprised, Zhang Zhongqing, this kid really didn't treat the Turks as human beings, and he used any weapon for experimentation.
Zhang Zhongqing smiled slightly, "Then you see, your Molotov cocktail, I have improved it fiercely, that power, tsk, I'll show you one in a while." ”
However, today Zhang Zhongqing has no chance to experiment on the enemy.
In the morning, a messenger came from the grassland, conveying the meaning of their new commander, that there would be no war for three days, but only to collect the fallen soldiers.
The battlefield is deceitful, but the battlefield is also a place where credibility is particularly important. It's like meeting for an armistice to converge on the soldiers, and at this time neither army will take the opportunity to attack the opposite side.
The steppe in late autumn was already very cold, and for the soldiers who died at this time, they were relatively lucky. After all, it is not a summer that is easy to cause plague, and this time there are big money owners like the landlord of the Tianxia Loulou who accompanied the army, their bodies do not need to be cremated, and they can be transported back to Datang in a crude wooden box.
This is powerful news, and the most feared thing for those who come out to serve as soldiers is that the bones will not be able to return to their homeland. Leng Feng's move won the cheers of everyone in the army, and even the soldiers who went to the battlefield for the first time no longer worried about what happened after their deaths.
After the convergence, there is a confrontation.
Unlike the previous confrontation, this time the steppe people were killed and did not continue to maintain a dense lineup, and many soldiers would rather be wrapped in sheepskin and freeze outside, rather than squeeze into a tent with their companions.
The cavalry units of the Tang Army came too unexpectedly, and many of their companions were killed by a thunderbolt before they had time to put on leather armor and walk out of the tent.
In such a small space as a tent, the power of thunder arrows will be infinitely magnified.
The grassland chose to confront, and the Tang army was happy to do so.
Now the treasury of the Tang Dynasty is sufficient, and the grain and grass are enough for more than 40,000 troops to consume in the grassland for a year, on the other hand, the grassland people, as long as the cold winter comes and the snow falls, they will be completely wasted.
However, Leng Feng and the others obviously did not have the patience to wait.
The "Grassland Fire Prevention Letter" spread throughout Jingbei Province in just a dozen days.
Leng Feng is also the teacher of the first batch of graduates of the Academy of Letters, and with this teacher-student friendship, they all put Leng Feng's requirements in the first place.
In a short period of time, they directed the herders to harvest the grass or dig ditches to create a barrier.
The burning of the fire requires a medium, and without pasture, it is difficult for the fire to reach Keibuk-do.
When the last student's reply arrived, Leng Feng drew a line on the map and said to Su Dingfang, "It's almost, as long as there is no accident in a large area, and some other small places with not many people, don't care, tonight, let's set fire!" ”
Tang Jin had been following Leng Feng, and when he heard Leng Feng's arrangement, he asked suspiciously, "Sir, why do you have to set the fire at night?" Wouldn't it be better to put it during the day? ”
Su Dingfang and Niu Jinda were used to Leng Feng following Tang Jin, and they also saw that Leng Feng wanted to cultivate this kid.
Niu Jinda explained, "Boy, if you set fire to it during the day, won't people see it? Although we set this fire, we also have to be sneaky and not be discovered. ”
Tang Jin was puzzled, there were fires left and right, why did he still sneak around?
Su Dingfang laughed, "Boy, when you lead the army to do bad things in the future, you must remember that although you have done bad things, even you don't admit that you did this bad thing."
In other words, we are setting fires now, and the best thing to do is to help the grassland people fight the fires after setting the fire. In this way, do you think the steppe people still have a way to accuse us of setting fires? ”
Listening to Su Dingfang's explanation, Leng Feng had a black line on his face, he just felt that setting fire at night could give the grassland people a greater sense of panic, why did he think so much?
Besides, this behavior is also a little shameless, firefighting? If you don't pour oil, the grassland people probably burn high incense!
Night gradually fell, and the incendiary bombs brought by Zhang Zhongqing were split into gasoline and bottles.
Zhang Zhongqing only made two improvements to the incendiary bomb, the first was that he changed the bottle to the shape of a stabbing ball, taking advantage of the characteristics of the incendiary bottle to explode without shattering.
Second, he added sugar to the Molotov cocktail
White sugar is a little sticky and sticks to objects easily and does not fall. What's more, it has weight, it can splash, and if the bottle explodes, it will fly around with flames.
After seeing the structure of the incendiary flask clearly, Leng Feng couldn't help but extend a thumbs up to Zhang Zhongqing, "Damn, you are a natural weapon research and development expert!" ”
Zhang Zhongqing, who was praised by Leng Feng, raised his head directly, quite proud.
There are not many incendiary bottles, and after all the bottles are opened, only half a barrel is poured out, and this amount can only pull up a fire line more than 100 meters long.
"It's still not enough, we have to burn at least a 500-step line of fire before we can threaten the opposing army and make them flee. For the rest, the soldiers had to set the fire on fire. ”
It was pitch black in the night, and only the faint flame of the light of the fire fold could illuminate the figures of two or three people.
"It's better to be at the same time, so that the flames can be pushed through neatly."
"The order was given to the soldiers to disperse, and when they saw the line of fire burning with gasoline, they immediately set it on fire."
In the darkness of the night, everyone heard Suosuo's speech, like a group of wild ghosts.
There is no moon tonight, and it is really a good day to set fires.
I don't know how long later, a fire snake gradually meandered like crawling out of a hole, lasting more than a hundred meters long, and then, little by little, flames appeared.
Several lines of fire are gradually connected together, and if you look at it from above at this time, it looks like a popular snake game.
When the flames were lit, the arsonists ran wildly.
The grass of the grassland has withered and yellowed, and with the help of the evening breeze, the flames will move east and north for a while, and if it is delayed for a long time, these arsonists will also be explained to the grassland.
Because, the place where they set the fire was in the middle of the two armies, and it was still a long way from their own camp.
Only a fool set fire to the Tang Army!
It wasn't until he ran through the fire ditch that Cheng Zhihei breathed a sigh of relief, and after lighting the "granary", he began to shout "It's on fire!" Hurry up and put out the fire! ”
In the moonless night, the firelight was particularly obvious, and the sentry on the grassland people's side immediately discovered the boundless flames and the burning granary on the Tang army's side.
On fire? Why did this autumn suddenly catch fire?
The flames spread very fast on the grassland, and the steppe sentry hurriedly went down to report, if it was a little later, the fire would have burned!
