In a clearing on the south side of the woodland, two lieutenants led 400 soldiers of the Fallen Goose Army to carry piles of bundles of firewood and grass and arm-thick trees that had been cut down. These are all cut down and piled up here in this woodland by Lin Hu and his people in the past two days.

Before coming, Lin Hu thought very clearly, he wanted to use mud and rocks to block the official road as the primary means of interception. If this method is ineffective, the second method is used to intercept the enemy. The second method is to seal the road with fire.

Lin Hu believed that it was best to delay the arrival of reinforcements by the first method, otherwise he would have to use the second method of sealing the road with fire. And this method of sealing the road by fire is a means that Lin Hu learned from his Uncle Lin Jue.

When Lin Jue led the imperial court soldiers and horses to encircle and suppress the Qingjiao disciples, in the battle of Bolangsha, he used fire to block the retreat of the Qingjiao people, and forcibly blocked them on the galloping road between the swamps of Bolangsha and could not escape. In the end, the little prince Guo Kun led the army to arrive and annihilated tens of thousands of Qingjiao soldiers and horses in Bolangsha. This battle brought a huge shock to everyone. Who would have thought that Lin Jue would intercept his opponent in Bolangsha in this way, it was simply a stroke of genius. After that battle, not only the court but also the Great Zhou army praised Lin Jue, and the people around Lin Jue were also admired.

Lin Hu admired Lin Jue very much, and following Lin Jue's side, he saw Lin Jue's various wisdom and strategies, and all kinds of incredible methods. There are many things that he naturally can't understand and learn at all, and even if Lin Jue teaches him, he can't understand some things. This is not because he is stupid, but because Lin Jue knows too much, and there is too much difference in knowledge structure and insight between him and Lin Hu. What Lin Jue thought was very simple, for Lin Hu, it was almost impossible to be more profound.

However, even so, Lin Hu would still consciously imitate Lin Jue's approach. He didn't need to investigate the internal reason, he only needed to carry Lin Jue's practice. I have to say that this is a smart and trouble-saving approach. But this kind of transportation is not necessarily a good thing. For example, this time, Lin Hu remembered Lin Jue's method of intercepting the Qingjiao disciples in the first place, so he decided to follow suit. But in fact, it is extremely appropriate for the terrain of Bolangsha to block the road with fire, because it is surrounded by swampy areas, and the other party has no way to go after being blocked by fire. And here, in fact, it is a bit reluctant to block the official road with fire. Because even if the official road is impassable, the hillside next to it can still be marched. In a hurry, the Jurchen soldiers and horses could evacuate on foot from the slopes of the hills. Therefore, from the perspective of the terrain, it is actually not suitable for blocking the official road with fire.

But Lin Hu is no longer the stunned young man, and he is not completely imitating Lin Jue's practice in Bolangsha, he has his own ideas.

After Lin Hu came here, he chose this valley crossing as the location for the fire to stop the enemy army. That's not only because the slopes of this valley are densely wooded, so it is convenient to harvest timber as a trigger for blocking the road, but also because what Lin Hu wants to set off is not an official road fire at all, he wants to ignite the entire mountain forest, it will be a fire that blocks the official road of the valley and the hills and slopes on both sides, and the fire spreads to both sides, and even affects other peaks and hills. In this case, the other party will definitely not be able to pass in a short time, and they can only wait for the fire to be extinguished. What Lin Hu wants to set off is a super fire.

At this moment, while directing everyone to quickly carry and pile up the trees that had been cut down and piled up in the forest for the past two days, to the official road down the mountain, the two lieutenants opened holes with their blades the fire oil that they had worked so hard to carry. Then slowly roll down the hillside. The oil spilled on the fallen leaves and long grass in the forest along the way, and a pungent smell began to waft through the air. In the end, three barrels of fire oil were left, which were naturally reserved for the burning of miscellaneous trees and firewood on the official road.

Four hundred people made several trips back and forth, and then carried all the ignition materials that had piled up to the official road. On the official road dozens of steps wide, a super large firewood pile with a height of two zhang and a width of more than one zhang was piled up.

"Brother Wang, you are waiting here for the ignition signal, and I will go to save General Lin and them." Captain Li Dapeng said in a deep voice.

Another lieutenant, Wang Huai, hurriedly said: "You stay, I will take my brothers to reinforcements." ”

Li Dapeng smiled: "Who of you and I has high martial arts skills?" Your martial arts skills are not as high as mine, what are you fighting with me? I'm going to kill the enemy better than you, isn't that reasonable? Don't fight, General Lin Hu and they are probably already in danger. ”

Wang Huai was speechless, so he had to nod and say, "You must rescue General Lin Hu, until the last moment, I won't ignite the fire." ”

Li Dapeng promised in a deep voice, and with a wave of his hand, except for Wang Huai and more than a dozen soldiers who specially lit the fire, the remaining more than 300 soldiers of the Luoyan Army took out their blades one after another, and followed Li Dapeng to rush up to the woods in the hillside.

In the woods, the battle has entered the white heat. The Jurchen soldiers had already besieged Lin Hu and hundreds of others. Thousands of Jurchen soldiers contracted the encirclement and launched a fierce attack on Lin Hu and the others. The more than 1,000 people selected by Lin Hu to come to the Luoyan Army are all elite, with high martial skills and are familiar with the combat methods of the Luoyan Army. Hundreds of people formed a circular defense line and coordinated with each other to kill the enemy in three or three. The Jurchens didn't have much discipline in battle, and at this moment, they relied on the crowd to rush and attack, and were resisted by these hundreds of people in formation, and for a time they suffered heavy casualties and could not break through the defensive formation.

Ali scolded angrily and roared angrily. The Jurchen soldiers began to become disciplined under his organization. They have become more cautious and no longer rash. Instead, they infiltrated the city near the front under the cover of the trees. As soon as he had the opportunity, he threw a whirling scimitar to hurt someone, and as long as he injured a few opponents in one place, he concentrated on breaking through and attacking fiercely. Like a pack of bloodthirsty wolves, unless you don't get hurt, they will rush up and bite at the area where you are injured, causing your wound to expand quickly and eventually become fatal.

Although the soldiers of the Luoyan Army were brave, the enemy was outnumbered, and the other party was also a Jurchen who was good at fighting between mountains. One by one, the soldiers of the Luoyan Army fell under the attack of the other party, and each time they fell, Lin Hu was missing a helper. The more people fall, the more they will be unable to resist the attack. Lin Hu bit his lower lip, his body was covered with blood, his face was full of sweat, and his young face was full of stubbornness. The Wang Ba box in his hand kept bombarding the approaching place, but that was actually to no avail. In less than half an hour, there were less than a hundred people standing beside him, and the rest had fallen in a pool of blood. These good men who followed him had proved their indomitability with their deaths. Lin Hu was a little unwilling in his heart, but that was not fear. He thought that he might die here, and he was a little prepared. But he was reluctant to give birth to his wife, and he was reluctant to Uncle Lin Jue. He hasn't followed Uncle Lin Jue to make a career yet. Just died, and I was really unwilling.

When Li Dapeng rushed into the forest with hundreds of people, Lin Hu did not feel any joy, but he was very angry.

"Bastard, Li Dapeng, are you here to send your brothers to death? Have you done what I told you? Lin Hu scolded.

"Little general, everything has been arranged, just waiting for an order." Li Dapeng replied loudly while slashing and killing the Jurchens.

"Stupid, start when you're ready, and then you can evacuate immediately, but what are you doing here?" Lin Hu slashed down a Jurchen soldier with a knife and roared loudly.

"I'm waiting to follow the little general, how can I abandon you here? Are we still human? To die together, to live together. My brother Luoyanjun practices the creed of 'don't abandon and don't give up', has General Lin forgotten? We don't want to be unkind. Li Dapeng raised his voice and said.

Lin Hu was speechless. Li Dapeng led more than 300 people to fight a bloody way and rushed to Lin Hu's side to join him. Of course, on the one hand, it was because of Li Dapeng's ferocity, and on the other hand, the other party deliberately let them and Lin Hu converge. As they converged, the encirclement closed again. The more than 300 soldiers of the Luoyan Army brought by Li Dapeng were tantamount to throwing themselves into the net.

"Hey, brothers, why do you want to die? It cost you all your good lives in vain. It's useless to say anything. Today, our brothers will definitely not be lucky, so let us go on the road together and fight to the death with the Jurchens. Lieutenant Li immediately gave a signal and ordered the ignition. Lin Hu shouted in a deep voice.

Li Dapeng was stunned and hesitated: "Now...... Ignition? ”

Lin Hu looked at the approaching Jurchen soldiers around him and shouted, "What are you waiting for? This is the right time. Will they wait until they kill us all? Hurry up and give the order. ”

Li Dapeng nodded in a deep voice, reached out and took out a fireworks bomb from his arms, held it in the air, and lit the fuse. With a thud, the fireworks bomb dragged the bright red tail flame out of the cracks in the trees and into the sky. Between the mountains on the left and near, you can clearly see the gorgeous figure of this firework bomb. On the official road in the valley, Wang Huai looked up at the fireworks bomb rising into the air, looked at the forest on the slope where the shouts and fights came, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Light the fire." ”

More than a dozen soldiers of the Luoyan Army who lit the fire immediately started to burn, and the fire broke and ignited the firewood and grass sprinkled with fire oil, and in an instant, more than ten fires burst out and burned fiercely.
