Chapter 423, Set fire to the mountain
Tai Shi Ci frowned, his heart couldn't bear it, and he hurriedly persuaded, "Lord, there are seventy or eighty thousand people, and the fire will definitely kill and injure countless people, is it against heaven and earth to do this?" ”
"Ziyi, time is pressing, if I have enough troops at hand, maybe I won't be so decisive, but this is the most effective way at the moment." Lu Zhuo waved his hand, "I already know the situation in Xuzhou, we don't have the energy to fight to the death with Yuan Shao now." ”
"Lord, you know everything?"
Tai Shi Ci hadn't had time to tell Lu Zhuo yet.
Lu Zhuo pointed to the Yuan soldiers behind him who had just surrendered, "They told me that Yuan Shao's soldiers were far worse than Cao Bing's military discipline, and they were tricked out by me in three or two strokes." ”
"It's not good, there's a situation under the mountain!"
It was difficult not to be noticed by people about the movement under the mountain, Zhang He was the first to notice the enemy situation and hurriedly reported to Yuan Shao.
"What? How many enemy soldiers came down from the mountain? Where is Lu Zhuo now? ”
Yuan Shao's brain was not enough, the whole person froze in place, suddenly, a fire broke out at the bottom of the mountain, Zhang He's heart sank, and hurriedly reminded Yuan Shao, "Lord, without further ado, let's go down the mountain quickly, they have already started to set fire, no need to ask, Lu Zhuo has escaped safely to the bottom of the mountain." ”
"How is this possible?"
Yuan Shao muttered in disbelief, "Wasn't Lu Zhuo trapped on the mountain all the time last night?" ”
Lu Kuang hurriedly lowered his head, at this time, he didn't dare to look at Yuan Shao, Lu Kuang was not stupid at all, Lu Zhuo's last breakthrough was in his defense area.
Although Lu Kuang didn't know what was going on, once Yuan Shao tracked it down, Lu Kuang would definitely not be able to escape.
Tian Feng hurriedly stomped his feet, "Lord, it's time, hurry up and go down the mountain." ”
At this time, Yuan Shao's indecisive behavior was undoubtedly exposed, Tian Feng's words finally opened Yuan Shao's head, and he hurriedly nodded, "Yes, yes, go down the mountain quickly!" ”
However, if you want to go down the mountain, it is not so easy, the main peak of Mount Tai is thousands of meters above sea level, Yuan Shao spent a lot of effort to reach the top of the mountain, thousands of meters of high mountains, even if you run all the way down, it will take a lot of time, not to mention, there is no road here at all, one foot deep, one foot shallow, you can't go fast at all.
The more anxious the heart, the more chaotic the team will be, not long after leaving, many soldiers because of the rush to run, slipped, unfortunately fell into the cliff.
However, if you want to walk slowly, is it possible, the fire under the mountain is getting bigger and bigger, the smoke is billowing, the fire is soaring, no one wants to be burned alive on the mountain, so that 80,000 Yuan troops, you push me, fight with each other, knock down, be trampled underneath, fall into the cliff, fall into the foot, all kinds of people, countless, Yuan Shao followed the large army was also tossed not lightly, when it was dark, the team only reached the halfway up the mountain.
In fact, this is already very fast, when I originally climbed the mountain, I only arrived at the mountain in a day and a half, but now I have walked half of it in less than half a day, Yuan Shao's speed should be worthy of applause.
However, in the past half a day, there are no less than 1,000 people who have been killed and injured by falls, and the remaining eight or nine out of ten people are not lightly tired, and the mountain road is difficult to walk.
On the other hand, on Lu Zhuo's side, when it was dark, not only Tai Shici's team was all there, but Guan Hai and Guan Yu also arrived in time, and the three-way army was added together, with no less than 100,000 people.
How Yuan Shao besieged Lu Zhuo before, now Lu Zhuo is learning and using it now, and he uses his own way to give back to others.
That night, Lu Zhuo made an exception to let people put on a banquet, allowing each soldier to drink three bowls, all the food and drink, Yuan Shao's camp is ready-made, Lu Zhuo let the soldiers enjoy the joy, this night, the mountain cheered and cheered, eating meat and drinking wine was not lively, and the soldiers of the Yuan army trapped on the mountain, one by one, had mixed tastes in their hearts, quite not a taste, worried, afraid, envious, and jealous... I really want to drop it and change identities with Xuzhou Bing.
Everyone was on the rise, Zhuge Jin also came, so many things happened at once, but Zhuge Jin was worried, he thought that Lu Zhuo was trapped in the mountain must be very dangerous, for this reason, a series of things happened in Xuzhou, Zhuge Jin was temporarily pressed in his heart, in his heart, nothing is more important than Lu Zhuo's life, but, when he came to the foot of the mountain, this scene in front of him was like a dream.
The entire barracks was completely chaotic, everyone was singing and dancing, there was laughter and laughter everywhere, the smell of wine wafting everywhere, and they all grinned and laughed non-stop, Zhuge Jin finally found Lu Zhuo, I really don't know whether to be excited or worried.
"Lord, lord......" In the end, Zhuge Jin's tears fell from his choked up.
This night, Yuan Bing didn't fall asleep, the people under the mountain were boiling, the sound of joy shook the earth, and the night was endless, in addition, the fire was still approaching the mountain at a rapid pace, and under this double stimulation, even if there was no heart or lungs, he couldn't sleep.
Tian Feng sighed and shook his head at Yuan Shao, "My lord, the top priority is to quickly let people cut down trees on the spot, and first make a vacant land for us to hide, otherwise, once the fire is approaching, we will die without a place to bury!" ”
If you want to go down the mountain, this thought has to be stopped temporarily, the fire quickly swept from the bottom of the mountain to the top, even if you are in a hurry to go down the mountain, the flesh and blood can not step smoothly through the sea of fire, but if you want to cut down trees on the spot, how easy is it?
These Yuan soldiers had either knives and guns or clubs in their hands, but there were no axes, and even if they did, there were towering trees everywhere, and if they wanted to cut them down, they had to spend a lot of effort.
But no matter how many difficulties there were, the crowd had to do it.
As a result, Yuan Shao's army staged a very funny scene in the middle of the mountainside, whether it was a knife or a sword, they were all sent to cut down trees, and one used the strength of milk to desperately send the sword to the big tree.
The fire was rapidly approaching, the flames kept licking the sky, the wind was raging, the fire was rolling, a sea of fire was flowing all over the sky, and the crazy waves of fire were one after another, as if they wanted to swallow the sky.
When the fire approached Yuan's soldiers, the crowd only cut down a few trees, and the place where they could stay was really limited, which was not enough for everyone to survive the catastrophe, many people saw that the situation was not good, hurriedly dropped their blades and turned around and ran back, some people took the lead, more and more people joined the flow of fleeing people, in the face of unstoppable nature, manpower was too small.
