Chapter 182: Chestnut in the Fire
Lan Ziyi sighed after hearing the battle situation described by Tao Zhulu:
"We know that the thieves just happened to bring the elite over, but how could the soldiers who had already left the city know?
They must have thought they had been ambushed. “
After saying that, Lan Ziyi turned around and wanted to go down the city tower,
Seeing this, Tao Zhulu stepped forward with an arrow, grabbed Lan Ziyi's arm and said:
"Young master, you can't go, the enemy has already been received in front, and it's a chaotic battle, it's too dangerous, you just rush over like this, if there are three long and two short, I can't afford to lose my head."
Lan Ziyi looked back at Tao Zhulu and said:
"Second brother, I don't know that the enemy situation has been in chaos before, and the four thousand brothers who I don't go out of the city at this time will be gone."
桃扵鹿 says:
"So just let me go, as long as I tell everyone what happened, the chaos will be over."
Lan Ziyi said:
"More than 4,000 people will take a lot of effort to speak even if you are standing in the school field, not to mention that the military is in turmoil now?
The second brother and the generals who led the army are not subordinate to each other, how can you stabilize the morale of the army in the chaos in the past?
Second brother! It's urgent, and if I don't go out, we'll all die outside the city, you know that!
Second brother, if you think about how to stop me from leaving the city, you might as well think about how to protect me from letting me die outside the city. “
Tao Zhulu stared at Lan Ziyi's eyes for a long time, so long that the sergeant next to him thought that the two of them had collapsed.
In the end, Tao Zhulu gritted his teeth and said "sigh", pulled Lan Ziyi down to the city, and said as he walked:
"Then the young master must follow me and chase the rabbit, and you must not be willful,
This time out of the city is a scuffle, and the formation strategy is not used at all. “
Lan Ziyi followed Tao Zhulu on the stairs of the city wall, and when he heard this, he said:
"As long as there is a war, no matter what kind of melee strategy it is, it will always be used."
While talking, the two of them have hurried down to the city,
The soldiers defending the city have opened the gate leading to the urn city, and Tao Zhutu led the remaining Jihu battalion in the city and the soldiers brought by Tao Zhulu to join the army and wait in the urn city.
Seeing Lan Ziyi coming down, Tao Zhutu looked a little regretful, it seems that he is still counting on his second brother to persuade Lan Ziyi upstairs.
Lan Ziyi and Tao Zhulu came to Tao Zhutu and turned over on the horse, Tao Zhutu wanted to say something to Lan Ziyi, but Lan Ziyi had already opened his mouth to speak to the soldiers:
"There are no thieves in ambush outside the city, it is just the elite defenders outside the thieves' tent, but the front army does not know it, and it is in a bitter battle
Now I will take you out of the city, just to receive our soldiers back to the city.
The thieves are defenseless, and they destroy them with the power of the kings like chopping melons and vegetables; But there are many thieves, and they are also attacked by sneak attacks, and wildfires are everywhere, and they must hate our army to the bone, so you soldiers must follow me to fight quickly after leaving the city, and remember not to fall in love with war, understand? “
When the army heard this, Lan Ziyi nodded, regardless of whether the peach and rabbit next to him were worried or happy, and shouted to the defenders at the city gate:
"Open the door!"
With that, the defenders opened the city gates, and the soldiers in the city, led by Lan Ziyi, drew their sabers and swarmed out of the city.
The uninhabited belt between the Xiangcheng city wall and the bandit camp had long been illuminated by the fire on the opposite side, and Lan Ziyi and his 1,000 Tiger Battalion soldiers walked through the mud unimpeded.
As we got closer and closer to the bandits' camp, the scene in the camp became clearer and clearer.
It was already a hell, and the shacks that the thieves had built around and the supplies around the huts were excellent combustion, and the arrows and torches thrown by the soldiers could ignite a fire as soon as they landed.
One after another wildfires and quickly became one, and the flames swept into the clouds in the howling of the north wind, like a fire dragon flying into the sky, and the heat emitted by the fire dragon in the sky extracted all the surrounding air, causing the wind to be even stronger.
The people who dwelt in the huts fled in all directions, and the men's cries, the women's screams, and the children's weepings.
The dark figures in the firelight are intertwined with each other, densely packed, at this moment people no longer look like people, Lan Ziyi has never felt that human life is so cheap as now, and even ants are not as cheap, and this hell on earth was planned and implemented by him.
The forward sergeants were about to step into the line of fire, although the soldiers came in a hurry and did not bring a horse lance, but the sabers in their hands were not vegetarian, and the sharp blades were dyed red by the firelight, and they were already shrouded in a layer of blood mist before they could kill people.
Just when the soldiers were about to meet the enemy and the sabre was about to be cut down, Lan Ziyi ordered:
"The thieves and the people are all coerced, although they are in the demon law, but they are innocent, and they are suffering here tonight, so they can't kill indiscriminately!
We are only waiting to meet the enemy, so put away your sabers, and do not kill anyone who stands in your way before engaging the enemy! “
Although the soldiers were unwilling to hear this, they still put away their sabers and stopped slashing.
The panicked thieves and the people saw the soldiers of the Jihu Battalion charging and all got out of the way, shouting:
"The demon is here! The demon is coming! ”
Lan Ziyi listened to the shouts of "righteous demons", and remembered the scene he had seen in the thief camp before, and was heartbroken, why did the good people become believers in the demon law so quickly.
But now there is no time to think about these questions, and the peach rabbit on the side said:
"I can still see where the battle is on the city wall, and now when I enter the sea of fire, why can't I see anything?
Big brother, where are they? “
Although Lan Ziyi was wrapped in an arrow by everyone, he was still roasted by the flames, and the iron armor was worn on the body in the high temperature as if it were tortured, and the heat spread to the skin through the clothes on his body, Lan Ziyi felt that he was no different from being roasted on the fire.
When Tao Zhutu spoke, Lan Ziyi took out the water bladder and poured water on the armor, the water bladder had been roasted by the flame, and the warm water was poured on the armor and was scalded into steam.
After hearing Tao Zhutu's words, Lan Ziyi looked up and looked around, and he was irritable and didn't know how to find his allies.
Fortunately, Tao Zhulu stayed awake and shouted:
"Our army has been setting fire all the way, only the road ahead is not lit, and the front army will definitely be found by following the road that is caught in the middle by the fire."
After sprinkling some water, Lan Ziyi withdrew the water bladder back to his waist and loudly ordered:
"General Zhulu is right, everyone follow the fire!"
With an order, more than 1,000 soldiers plunged headlong into the raging flames,
No matter what it was like when the soldiers who left the city just now first rushed into the bandit camp, it has nothing to do with the current scene.
The monstrous fire has been erected as a cliff on both sides of the road that the soldiers passed, and the flames oppressed the road, sinking, and turned it into a valley of gods in the sea of fire, walking on it was like sliding down the throat of a giant beast step by step to the abyss, and the feeling was not swallowed by hell, but rushing to hell by oneself.
The further you go into the depths of the flames, the higher the temperature, the sweat from the horses is evaporated without a trace at the first time, and the sweat on the soldiers is distilled in the armor and is about to boil.
But this is not unbearable pain, what is more tormenting than the pain is fear.
The people who were still scattered and fleeing before were getting fewer and fewer in the depths of the thief camp, and those who occasionally appeared in front of the road had fallen to the ground and could not move, and from time to time in the flames on both sides of the road, human figures could be seen being ignited in the flames, and then they were shrouded, and then curled up on the ground and turned into ashes.
The soldiers were still shouting and charging at the beginning, but after rushing for a while, they all quieted down, although the soldiers didn't say anything, but Lan Ziyi knew that everyone was worried about whether they would turn into ashes if they rushed all the way like this, because Lan Ziyi himself was worried about this matter.
Finally, a sergeant in front shouted:
"There's someone ahead, there's someone ahead!"
Hearing the news, everyone was excited, no matter whether there was a friend or foe in front of them, as long as there were people, it was said that there was a way of life ahead, and if there was a way of life, they would not be burned to death.
The soldiers of the Tiger Battalion, who had been walking through the flames for a long time, finally howled excitedly when they saw the vitality, and rushed closer to see clearly that there were standing infantry in front of them, not friendly cavalry, so the soldiers raised their sabers and rushed out of the flames.
The cavalry warrior who tore through the flames was covered with green smoke, and the blade was wrapped in a layer of blue-blue fire, and his face was burning, and at first glance it looked like he was rushing out of the underworld to ask for his life, and the thieves with their backs to the flames were defenseless against it, and they did not feel it until the blades were crossed.
Lan Ziyi and they rushed out of the flames, thinking that they would be met with stubborn resistance from the thieves, but after fighting, they found that these thieves were not prepared to fight.
The thieves were all disheveled, many of them wore only a pair of underwear, and they were armed with a variety of weapons, not at all as if they had been brought in again, but rather as if they had picked up something and gone to the front line after being dispatched in a hurry because of the urgency of the situation.
Seeing this, how could the soldiers of the Jihu Battalion miss the opportunity, and the sabers pulled the scorching air and cut off one neck after another.
The soldiers chopped melons and vegetables all the way, easily tearing open the encirclement network of the thieves in front of them, and the soldiers of the Jihu Battalion who fought before were surrounded in the middle and could not retreat.
Seeing this, Tao Zhulu said to Lan Ziyi:
"Young master, it seems that we are not the only ones who have been stunned."
Lan Ziyi listened and nodded, indeed, the soldiers who went out to fight didn't know that the elite of the thieves was here, and the thieves themselves didn't know that the defenders would send cavalry to rob the camp, and the thieves themselves were in shock after being attacked.
Thinking about it this way, he was able to mobilize manpower to surround the officers and soldiers so quickly after being attacked by a sneak attack, and the thieves reacted very quickly.
Only this time saw that Lan Ziyi and they had already led the team to tear through the weak defense line on the south side of the thief and rushed into the middle of the soldiers who were besieged.
The besieged soldiers first saw the fire rushing out of the killing god and thought that it was the heavenly soldiers who came to help, and when they rushed to the front, they found that it was the reinforcements from the city, they were overjoyed, and quickly put down the bows and arrows in their hands to get out of the way.
Lan Ziyi also took the lead and rushed to the front and shouted:
"I am Wei Ting Hou Lan Ziyi,
Don't panic, you didn't get ambushed, here are the elite guards of the thieves guarding the big tent, they are fierce and abnormal, that's all, and they are not ambushed. “
The besieged sergeants were relieved when they heard this, and suddenly realized:
"I see, let's just say that those heavy-armored thieves only line up to defend, and they don't have the slightest intention of attacking."
Lan Ziyilie asked after preaching loudly in the cavalry group:
"Where are the three generals who led the team?"
After asking three times, he rode out of the crowd and said:
"Wei Hou! You're here! ”
