Liu He looked serious and gathered the soldiers who followed him.

At this time, Liu He was not in a hurry, waiting for Lou Ban and Su Yanfu to chase after him.

Soon, Lou Ban and Su Yanfu chased after them with Wuhuan cavalry, but because the road was rugged and difficult to walk in the mountains and forests, Lou Ban had already dismounted and ran away with steel knives. This is true not only of Lou Ban, but also of most of the Wuhuan soldiers.

Lou Ban looked at Liu He and Ye Tong and shouted, "You guys escaped, why didn't you escape?" ”

With that, Lou Ban laughed with a smug smile on his face.

Liu He sneered twice, slowly raised his hand, and shouted: "Archers prepare!" ”

In an instant, countless archers stood around the Willow River, and next to these archers stood a soldier with a torch. These ambushes were arranged here by Sima Yi and Fa Zheng, just to attack with fire.

"Shoot the arrows!"

Liu He gave an order, and the archer immediately ignited the rocket.

"Whew! Shout! ”

As soon as the rocket was fired, it hit the woods and immediately caught fire. Although it was already winter, the weather was dry, especially where the archers were ambushed, and within the range of the bows and arrows, tung oil was also poured and rockets were fired, which soon ignited a fire. The fire burned and burned towards Lou Ban and Su Yanfu, and then the suppression of the rocket also made Su Yanfu and Lou Ban unable to move forward.

Su Yanfu's face was anxious, and he said, "My lord, we may be tricked, retreat, withdraw quickly." ”

Lou Ban glared at Liu He and Ye Tong hatefully, and shouted, "Withdraw!" ”

With an order, Lou Ban took Su Yanfu and the Wuhuan cavalry to turn around and leave, and retreated.

Soon, a fire had already ignited in the mountain forest, and Liu He and Ye Tong naturally could not continue to stay in the mountain forest, so they immediately turned around, left from the rest of the directions, and went down the mountain. The task of the two of them was to lure Lou Ban and Su Yanfu over, then ignite the fire, block Lou Ban's pursuit, and send Lou Ban back.

At this time, Lou Ban and Su Yanfu quickly retreated, wanting to withdraw from the mountains and forests.

After walking for a quarter of an hour, a fire suddenly broke out in front of him.

The fire is raging, there is a distance of five zhang wide, if Lou Ban wants to withdraw from the mountains and forests according to the original way, he must run out of the sea of fire five zhang away, which is undoubtedly a huge test.

Lou Ban thought about it, but still denied the possibility of breaking through the sea of fire, and immediately ordered the soldiers to break through to the right, wanting to break through from the right side of the mountain forest. However, when he ran for less than half an hour, he found that a fire was also burning on the right, the same length of five zhang wide, and if he wanted to break out, he had to read through the sea of fire.

At this time, Lou Ban began to panic.

He felt like he was in a cage, surrounded by fire.

The smoke was billowing and choking, and Su Yanfu said loudly: "My lord, there is still no fire on the left, immediately break through from the left." ”

"Yes, yes, change lanes immediately."

Lou Ban seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and ran to the left with the Wuhuan cavalry.

He ran back and forth like this, but he invisibly delayed the time, so that the fire in the front, back, and right directions had been connected, and it became a sea of fire, which was difficult to break through. When Lou Ban and his soldiers were about to break through from the left, a fire broke out on the left again. The fire was raging, billowing with smoke, and the smoke made people cough loudly.

Many of the Wuhuan cavalry were disgraced and extremely embarrassed.

They didn't expect that the one who was still showing off his might before would become a lost dog fleeing in embarrassment in the blink of an eye.

Even if they are close to death, they are in danger at all times.

Lou Ban was already in a hurry, behaving at a loss, and didn't know how to deal with the next situation. He looked at Su Yanfu and hurriedly said, "Su Yanfu, now that there is a fire all around, we are surrounded by a sea of fire, and it is difficult to rush out, what should you do?" ”

Lou Ban's eyes were flustered, and he completely lost his previous high-spirited situation.

After all, Su Yanfu is a battle-hardened person with rich experience, and he can quickly shock down.

Caught in the sea of fire at this time, Su Yanfu quickly analyzed the various situations and said, "My lord, this time we are pursuing the Shu army, and we have been ambushed. Even, the Shu army's escort of grain and grass is also a part of it, and the people who designed it expected that we would pursue, so they set up a sink here. ”

Su Yanfu's analysis was like the wind blowing through Lou Ban's ears, and it had no effect. Lou Ban said: "Su Yanfu, is it time to say whether you are in the plan or not, you are thinking about how to kill it." ”

Su Yanfu said in a deep voice: "My lord, if you want to rush out, it's not impossible. ”

"What's the solution?" Lou Ban listened to Su Yanfu's words and was in good spirits.

Su Yanfu said: "We still have a war horse next to us, as long as we use our battle robes to cover our faces and hair, ride our horses down the mountain, and rush directly out of the sea of fire, we still have a chance." However, since the Shu army set fire to an ambush in the mountain, there must be an ambush at the bottom of the mountain, so it will also face the danger of the next one. Su Yanfu was worried, with a worried look on his face.

Lou Ban gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "The matter has come to this point, so I can only rush." ”

He commanded loudly: "Order, everyone get on horseback, immediately rush down the mountain, rush out of the sea of fire, kill out, and kill the Shu army raised by the son of a bitch." ”

"Kill!!"

At this time, Lou Ban still did not forget to encourage morale and cheer up the mentally exhausted soldiers.

After a while, Lou Ban and Su Yanfu organized the soldiers behind them.

At this time, there was already a sea of fire around, standing in it and feeling the rolling heat, there were many screams of Wuhuan cavalry around, obviously burned by the fire. Even, the most obedient war horses have lost control, and many war horses have thrown off the Wuhuan soldiers and quickly rushed towards the sea of fire, wanting to rush out.

"Rush out!!"

Lou Ban roared, rode his horse, and rushed into the sea of fire with his soldiers.

"Ahh

As soon as he entered the sea of fire, there were continuous screams, as well as the mournful screams of the war horse.

The fire ignited the horse's mane and tail, and when it burned, it made the war horse even more crazy. Su Yanfu and Lou Ban were superb in equestrianism, constantly slapping the war horses, prompting the war horses to rush forward. In the midst of the fire, the two of them endured the burns of the fire, felt that it was difficult to breathe, and even the robes wrapped around their bodies had begun to smoke.

But either way, both must rush forward.

At a distance of nearly ten zhang, under the frantic charge of the war horse, it was only a few blinks of time to rush out.

However, under the fire, the Wuhuan cavalry suffered heavy losses.

Because there were nearly 10,000 soldiers following Lou Ban, so many people were trapped in the sea of fire, and when their colleagues wanted to crowd out, they couldn't escape quickly because of each other's crowding, and were finally drowned in the sea of fire. Such a fire burned nearly sixty percent of the soldiers under the command of Lou Ban, and the entire mountain forest became a sea of fire, and the fire was raging and terrifying.

Su Yanfu glanced at the burnt beard of the soldier behind him and sighed.

Lou Ban was even more depressed and said, "Su Yanfu, we escaped, but we didn't meet the Shu army, are we safe?" ”

Su Yanfu shook his head lightly and said, "My lord, this is definitely the beginning. The Han people made a move, it was impossible to make a false shot, they used fire, in order to make us lose our troops, lose our combat effectiveness, and now that we have reached the goal, we will definitely kill us. ”

Lou Ban looked left and right, but found that there were no Shu soldiers.

Except for the billowing smoke rising from the mountains and forests, there were no other figures.

Perhaps, there are really no ambushes.

Lou Ban looked forward to it, and ordered the soldiers to start returning. However, many of the soldiers' horses could no longer be ridden, because the horses were wounded, and the soldiers were also burned, and they could no longer travel quickly. Lou Ban took the soldiers and slowly walked towards the place where the Shu army grain truck was on the other side.

Su Yanfu didn't care about the scars on his body, and stared around vigilantly.
