Chapter 67: I'm Catching Up with You

Ignition?

What a relaxing two words!

But it's a lot of work to do.

After all, the Western Zhou Dynasty was not a modern society, and there were many ways to light a fire, and it took a lot of effort to light the fire at that time.

In general, there are two ways to make fire, one is to drill wood to make fire, and the other is to make fire with flint.

No matter what kind of fire method it is, it is primitive, the most basic, and it is also a laborious thing.

Drilling wood, you know, is to use something very hard to constantly drill wood, rub to generate heat, and then blow with your mouth, and finally achieve the purpose of burning.

What a complicated project! In this way, the people were faint from hunger, and the fire was not yet lit.

If it is used for lighting, I am afraid that the sky will be bright, and the fire will not be taken out.

Therefore, the ancients changed the way of making fire, and changed to drill wood to make fire for flint.

Flint is actually a stone that contains minerals, also known as "flint". Two flints rub and collide together, which can splash out sparks, and put thatch around them, and sparks splash on the thatch, which can ignite the thatch, and finally achieve the purpose of making fire.

However, there is also a chance that this way of making fire will not be accurate, and if the person who holds the flint is not accurate, the spark will not jump on the thatch, but will jump on the leader's feet. As a result, taking fire becomes a personal injury accident, and even if you are not burned to death, you will be hacked to death by the leader.

It can be seen that no matter what kind of fire is used, it is primitive and very difficult.

In view of this, the ancients thought of preserving the fire.

In order to keep the fire, ordinary people will dig a hole in the ground and constantly throw in combustibles such as branches to keep the fire, and the eunuchs will use clay pots to store the fire.

Whether it is digging a pit to store a fire, or a clay pot to store a fire, you have to constantly throw firewood into it, which is laborious and unhygienic.

So the wise ancients invented the fire fold.

The original fire fold is actually made of hemp rope or cloth strips rolled into a tight rope-like object, lit with fire and then blown out, at this time, although there is no flame, you can see the red bright spots faintly burning, like the embers in the ashes, can be kept for a long time. When it needs to be ignited, it can be rekindled with just a blow.

At this time, the soldiers led by Yinghai were actually carrying this kind of thing called Huo Zhizi.

After the blow is burned, the rest of the soldiers light the torches together.

You must know that it was already late at night at this time, and both Feng Rong and the Qin people lit torches for lighting, and no one took the little fire in the distance seriously.

"Set fire---" Yinghai gave an order, and the soldiers immediately took out torches and set fire to the camp tent of General Feng Rongzuo.

"Huhu ---" General Zuo's tent, which was set on fire by the fire, suddenly caught fire, and under the interweaving of wind and snow, it spread out in all directions.

"General Zuo, look, it's on fire---" General Zuo, who was drinking and chatting, took a look, my mother, I don't know when, my camp was on fire.

"Run--- General Feng Rongzuo, who rushed out of the camp, saw that several Qin people on horseback not far away were setting fire around with torches.

As expected, as expected!

"These dog-day Qin people are not worry-free at all, you guys follow me and destroy this group of Qin thieves who don't want to die." Seeing this, General Zuo was furious, and immediately got on his horse and led the soldiers to pursue Yinghai and others.

But Yinghai and others came to set fires, and they had no intention of fighting with General Zuo and others. Seeing General Zuo and others pursuing, he set fire to it while running towards the mountain.

How could the enraged Fengrong Zuo General let Yinghai and the others go this time, and without getting the order of Fengrong King Zaza, he led his subordinates to pursue Yinghai and the others fiercely.

"General Zuo, don't chase anymore, the king has already ordered that we will attack the Qin people again early tomorrow morning, asking us to remain calm." Seeing that General Zuo insisted on pursuing the mountain, his subordinates stopped.

"Nonsense, haven't you seen it, there are only a few people in Qin, are so many of our soldiers still afraid that Yinghai will not succeed. Let's kill Yinghai together. "Since the Qin people, with the support of the royal family, attacked Fengrong, Yinghai has been targeting General Zuo's tribe, which has long caused dissatisfaction among General Zuo and the clan soldiers.

The Qin people have a grudge against Feng Rong, which is obvious to all; But you Yinghai has been targeting my Zuo General, this is your mistake.

If I don't beat you, I can't help myself.

This time, General Zuo said that he would kill Yinghai and others.

Since General Zuo said so, what else could his subordinates do? I had to follow General Zuo to chase up the mountain.

The further you go, the heavier the wind and snow.

But General Feng Rongzuo, who was eager to win, no longer cared about this, and led the team to hurry forward and chase Yinghai and others not far away.

"Yinghai, there is a kind, you stop me, we will fight for three hundred rounds." While chasing, General Feng Rong Zuo scolded at the same time.

"Hmph, with so many people chasing me, and you still want to fight with me, do you want to win more with less, and there is no door fight, so I won't be fooled by you." This time, Yinghai did not have a hard encounter with General Zuo, but provoked the general.

"Your grandmother's, if you lead people to burn my tent, if I don't kill you, how can I be a man? Stop. This time, General Zuo would never give up the pursuit again, and rushed towards Yinghai and the others while chasing.

The closer he chased, he was less than a stone's throw away from Yinghai.

General Zuo felt a burst of joy in his heart, "Chase quickly, I'm about to take down these deadly things." ”

A "---whoosh" shot out, and a Fengrong warrior next to General Zuo fell in response.

Well?

General Zuo looked at the corpse on the ground and was not only stunned for a moment. I looked at it all up and down, left and right, and I didn't see anyone else!

"Dog 0 days, when he dies, he still wants to fight to the death! Where are the left and right, surround them. General Zuo ordered.

To die one is to die, and to die a hundred is still to die. Fighting a war is originally a dead man's thing. What's more, he has already chased after him at this time, if he doesn't kill Yinghai and the others, where will he put his face.

General Zuo gave an order, and his soldiers rushed forward from the left and right, intending to surround Yinghai and the others.

In the middle of the night, going up and down the mountain, setting fire to people, and running around, as long as it is a person, there will be times when they are tired. Yinghai and the others were also tired and couldn't run, seeing Feng Rongzuo's subordinates coming forward to surround them from the left and right, their lives were hanging by a thread.

It also takes courage to find death.

When General Zuo led his soldiers to chase him up the mountain, he was already not far from death.

Seeing that he was about to surround Yinghai and others in the mountain pass, General Zuo was overjoyed, "Yinghai, you villain who doesn't know the height of the sky, you have disturbed my tribe several times, killed my warriors, killed my people, today is the time for you to return the lives of my soldiers who lost their lives." General Zuo shouted and said to Yinghai.

"Hmph---, you wait, it's hard to say who will lose and who won?" Yinghai said without showing weakness.

At this time, the wind and snow on Longshan Mountain were tight, blowing on the faces and bodies of the soldiers on both sides, and General Zuo couldn't help but feel a spirit.
