Chapter 169: Burning the Mountain
Another gust of wind blew, blowing Cheng Yuanzhi's hair messily.
"Northwest wind! The woods are thick! The weather is dry! Not good! If at this time, the champion of Nawen leads the army to burn the mountain, then all my 50,000 sons will be buried in the sea of fire! ”
Cheng Yuanzhi's eyes widened, his heart was about to rise to his throat, and he immediately ordered the whole army to withdraw from the camp and go down the mountain.
"Report! Report!! ”
Before Cheng Yuanzhi's words could be spoken, suddenly, a yellow turban scout panted and ran in front of Cheng Yuanzhi.
Cheng Yuanzhi seemed to have guessed what was going on, and stared at the scout in front of him in a daze, shouting in his heart that he would never want it!
"Report to General Cheng, there is a team of 10,000 imperial court soldiers and horses rushing towards Daxing Mountain, can we immediately organize soldiers and horses to meet the enemy?"
Cheng Yuanzhi's head seemed to have been slammed, and he took a few steps back, but he didn't care about thinking too much, and shouted loudly.
"Quick! Fast! Pass me the word! The whole army immediately withdrew from the camp and descended the mountain! ”
"Huh? General Cheng, are we going to flee without a fight? ”
"Zhan Ru, a big-headed ghost! At this time, the northwest wind is blowing, and the weather is dry, if the 10,000 court soldiers and horses are here to set fire to the mountain, then we will all be buried in the fire! ”
"Ahh I! I! I'm going to give the order right away! ”
Cheng Yuanzhi's words frightened the scout on the spot, his face turned white, and after receiving the order in a slurred voice, he tiptoed to the various tents behind.
Soon the entire Daxing Mountain was in chaos, and countless Yellow Turban thieves hurriedly gathered together, and they were all confused by the order to withdraw from the camp and go down the mountain. However, Cheng Yuanzhi is a senior general in the army, and his orders are not something that these small soldiers can question.
"General Cheng! Why did you withdraw from the camp and go down the mountain? Do you want to flee without a fight? ”
Those little soldiers didn't dare to question it, but Deng Mao, as a deputy general, dared. He came to Cheng Yuanzhi in a rage and shouted with an accusatory attitude.
"Presumptuous! I am a senior general in the army, when will it be your turn to question my order! ”
Cheng Yuanzhi's words, just halfway through speaking, suddenly at the foot of Daxing Mountain, countless small fires converged, like a meteor shower and flew towards Daxing Mountain. Suddenly, Daxing Mountain caught fire everywhere, the fire spread extremely fast, the flames spread to the sky, and the entire Daxing Mountain became red.
"It's over!"
Cheng Zhiyuan saw that the firelight was bright everywhere on the mountain, and his face suddenly turned blue, and Deng Mao immediately understood why Cheng Yuanzhi wanted to withdraw from the camp and go down the mountain when he saw the firelight, his mouth was wide open, and his face was full of urgency.
"There are a lot of us, and now there are fires everywhere, so it is not appropriate to evacuate together. Deng Mao! Thou and I shall each lead half of our men and horses, and withdraw from the left and right directions, and if we can escape, we will seek a great sage and a good teacher to join forces with us!" ”
"Yes! General Cheng! ”
Deng Mao dared to question Cheng Yuanzhi for half a point at this time, and immediately led half of the soldiers and horses to retreat down the mountain to the right. And Cheng Yuanzhi led the other half of the soldiers and horses to the left.
Balabala.
The fire was relentless, and the Yellow Turban Army ran all the way, but was attacked by flames, and many violently burning trees collapsed, crushing or burning many Yellow Turban thieves. At this moment, the whole Daxing Mountain is like an oven, and the temperature in the mountain is constantly rising, so hot that people feel like they are about to be roasted.
The night sky is lit red by the Daxing Mountains that are blazing everywhere. Wen Han fought with drums at the foot of the mountain, and 10,000 imperial soldiers and horses were divided into five teams, each with 2,000 people, each holding a bow and arrow, and took turns shooting rockets into the Daxing Mountain. The sound of drums, bowstrings, arrows breaking through the void, and fire resonate with each other to become a hyopathy.
It is said that Deng Mao led half of the soldiers and horses, and when he rushed to the bottom of the mountain under the attack of the flames, the original strength of 25,000 people was lost, and only less than 15,000 people remained. Some of them were killed by fire, some were stoned to death by falling trees, but many more were trampled to death by their comrades.
The Yellow Turban thieves have not been trained, and when it comes to life and death, they all care about running for their lives, and whoever stands in front of him pushes hard. Many of those who walked in front were either pushed to the ground by those behind them, or they were pushed down the mountain, and some were even pushed into the fire and burned alive.
Deng Mao, as the leading general, repeatedly shouted at the ruthless behavior of the sergeant and pawn, but it had no effect, and Deng Mao was so angry that he killed twenty or thirty people in a row, and this behavior was slightly restrained.
"Woooooooooooo Darn!! Darn!! ”
Before he could fight with the soldiers and horses of the court, he died a full 10,000 people, and Deng Mao, who was still high-spirited, could not stand it, and he was unwilling to look up to the sky and roar.
"I am Xu Huang, the captain of the imperial court, Xu Gongming! According to the order of my general, I have been waiting here for a long time! The anti-country traitor, don't you get off the horse and surrender quickly, do you have to take the head of your item to know how powerful? ”
Suddenly, a team of 2,000 spearmen rushed out of the dark mountains and forests, and the leading generals were Xu Huang and Xu Gongming, the commanders under Wen Han.
"Wow! The court is mediocre, and the people are worse than dead. You don't care about the life and death of the people in the world, but you encourage the mediocrity of the court, which is an unrighteous and ruthless act. Don't be arrogant, watch me Deng Mao take your dog's life. ”
Deng Mao was furious, sat down with a snap, and rushed towards Xu Huang with a gun. Xu Huang sneered, his eyes were full of disdain, brandished the big axe in his hand, and rode his horse to meet him.
Bang! The big axe slammed the bronze spear, and suddenly sparks sprung up.
"This young man, the atmosphere is so big!"
Deng Mao secretly said in his heart, and a sharp pain came from the tiger's mouth. A cold light flashed in Xu Huang's eyes, and the axe was raised again, shouting! Deng Mao hurriedly raised his gun to block, Xu Huang's axe was violent, as if it could split the void, and the axe blade became sharper with force, shattering Deng Mao's gun blade.
"Ahh
Deng Mao screamed miserably, and it turned out that the fragment of the blade that was broken by Xu Huang's big axe splashed Deng Mao's right eye. At this time, Deng Mao, how dare he fight again with this god-like young man, endured the fatal pain, turned the horse's head, flicked the horsewhip wildly, and fled quickly towards the self-army formation.
"Wow! Little thief, look at your grandfather Zhang's spearhead! ”
Deng Mao rode his horse in the middle of the road, and suddenly, there seemed to be rolling thunder, and the sound was so loud that it gave people the feeling that the sky was falling apart. Xu Huang, who was chasing after him, rang in his ears.
And Deng Mao was even worse, he was so frightened that he was about to fall off the horse, he finally stabilized his figure, turned his head to look, and was scared again, and his soul seemed to fly.
I saw that the black man was like an evil Shura, eight feet long, with a leopard's head and eyes, swallow jaws and tiger whiskers, and his momentum was terrifying. The horses galloped as if they were full of evil spirit. The black man stood tall and speared straight out, and his hand stabbed Deng Mao, who was frightened and sluggish, in the heart, Deng Mao roared, turned over and fell off the horse, seeing that his life was not guaranteed.
"Hahaha! Kill! ”
The black man killed Deng Mao, let out a burst of laughter, and then rode his horse towards the Yellow Turban Thief Army, and violently blew a black rage, as if entering a no-man's land. The Yellow Turban Thief Army, just burned by the fire, escaped for his life, this heart has not yet stabilized, and when he saw the death of the leading general Deng Mao, they were immediately frightened and at a loss.
The black man rode in the formation of the thief army, danced the snake spear, and killed everywhere with blood. The entire fifteen thousand Yellow Turban thieves were beaten by the power of one person, and they were powerless to fight back, and the formation was in chaos.
Seeing this, Xu Huang was secretly surprised that this black man was so powerful, and he was almost as brave as his second brother Guan Yunchang.
"Third brother! Don't go deep into the enemy line, it's dangerous! ”
At this time, from the direction where the black man was running, a group of about 2,000 soldiers and horses came.
The leader is a man with a fair white face and a little bookishness, and this person has a strange life. He is seven feet five inches long, with two ears hanging down his shoulders, his hands above his knees, his eyes can take care of his ears, his face is like a crown of jade, and his lips are like grease. It faintly gives people a sense of compassion and benevolence.
The black man heard the big-eared and white-faced man shouting, but he didn't stop killing, he didn't have the slightest intention of wanting to retreat back to the formation, and laughed.
"Hahaha. Big brother, don't worry, I'm killing happily! Although there are a lot of these yellow turban thieves, they are all meat targets who will not resist, and the eldest brother does not need to worry, see how I can kill these thieves without leaving a piece of armor and add merit to my brother. ”
"Oops. The third brother is impulsive and does not listen to people's persuasion. The second brother Ru and I quickly led the army to rush there, if it was half a point slower and the third brother suffered a loss, what would it do? ”
The big-eared white-faced man was full of worry, what he called the second brother was a big man who was slightly more powerful than the black man just now, this person was burly, I saw that he was nine feet tall, his waist was twelve girths, and the terrifying big axe in his hand was a one hundred and eighty pounds of mountain opening axe.
Hearing that the big-eared white-faced man was so worried, the burly man couldn't help but show a hint of emotion in his eyes, and nodded immediately.
"Don't worry, eldest brother, I'll go over and sweep the battle for the third brother. Thou hast led the army and then pressed into battle. ”
The great man sat down on his horse with a snap, and rushed towards the Yellow Turban Thieves with great momentum, and the Yellow Turban thieves who were in front of him saw the giant axe in the hand of the Great Warrior, which was so big that it could kill several people, and was frightened by its power to pull out the mountain, and immediately fled in all directions in fright. The burly man had a cold face, and with an axe, it seemed to split the ground, and many of the people who were attacked by it were cut off irregularly, and the death was terrifying.
