"It's done! Get ready to set fire! Liu Xie stood on the tower of Xicheng and saw Dong Zhuo leading the army to the flagpole in the center, and was overjoyed, and after igniting the arrow in his hand, he took the lead in shooting out. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Whoosh! Gao Shun and the others, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately shot rockets one after another, igniting the dry grass and firewood that they had worked so hard to find in the past few days.
Looking at the rapidly burning fire, Liu Xie clenched his fists excitedly, this battle can not only get rid of Dong Zhuo and make the princes of the world awe-inspired, but also will be famous all over the world and leave a name for thousands of years!
"Your Majesty, it's time to retreat." Gao Shun saw that Dong Zhuo had already led the army towards the Xicheng Tower, and hurriedly reminded the Son of Heaven beside him who was in awe of him.
Liu Xie looked at Gao Shun beside him with a smile, nodded lightly, and ordered: "Ignite the dry grass and firewood under your feet and retreat." ”
After Liu Xie finished speaking, he took the lead to the edge of the city wall, grabbed the rope prepared in advance, and slid outside the city wall on the city wall.
Slippery, Dong Zhuo and the others endured the smoke and fire, tried hard to control the frightened war horse, picked up the burning dry wood along the way, and came to the west city wall with difficulty.
"My lord." Xu Rong looked at the city gate hole blocked by stones, and the road leading to the city tower blocked by fire, and his heart and gall were suddenly broken.
Moo! As soon as the big scalper saw that the road he was going to was blocked, he roared extremely angrily, and wanted to carry Dong Zhuo over the flames.
cough cough cough, Dong Zhuoqiang endured the smoke of the fireworks, dragged the Jiangjiang, and shouted loudly, "East Gate, hurry to the East Gate and rush out from there." ”
"Quick, take someone to find more water, and find a way to bring it to the East City Gate." Xu Rong commanded the adjutant general and lieutenant loudly.
"Water, where is the water?" Looking at the burning houses everywhere, the lieutenant shouted anxiously.
"Quick, there's a well here, find the barrel." The soldier who found the well roared excitedly.
"Where are the barrels, there is not even a stone with a pit around here, these damn arsonists, they are really desperate." The soldiers, who couldn't find the tools, cursed incessantly.
"Ahem, cough, no matter, let's go to the well first to avoid this catastrophe." A soldier who couldn't stand it anymore walked into the well platform with his legs up, pinched his nose, closed his eyes and jumped down.
Yes! A terrifying scream came from the well, and the soldiers who were about to follow hurriedly retreated, and asked curiously, "What's the matter?" ”
"It's full of rocks down here, my leg is broken, pull me up." The soldiers below cried out in mourning.
"It's okay, I didn't jump, these people are really ruthless! Come on. The soldiers surrounding the well platform dispersed in a hurry.
Whew! Cracking sound! The fire is getting bigger and bigger, the billowing smoke has completely blocked the sky, the air inhaled is getting hotter and hotter, and it feels more and more stuffy, and some war horses are rushing and crashing in the fire uncontrollably. All of a sudden, the neighing and screaming made the still controlled horses more and more uneasy, and the soldiers on the horses gradually began to collapse, throwing away their swords, guns, and armor, and the formation became scattered and crowded.
The people who were full of hope rushed to the east gate with great difficulty, and looked at the city gate cave isolated by the fire, and the crowd rioted again.
Yikes! Xu Rong looked at the fire that was not inferior to Xicheng, and then looked at Dong Zhuo, whose face was red and sweaty, his heart was ruthless, he rushed forward with a spear, and shouted loudly: "The city gate here is...... cough cough cough, it's open, cough cough, if you want to live, immediately pick a passage with me, hurry, hurry! ”
As he spoke, some of the soldiers who had long been panicked beat their horses fiercely, and rushed towards the city gate hole with their fierce fires, and most of them fell to the ground halfway through, struggling and roaring miserably.
"Quick, pick up these dead trees first, quick." Some soldiers who were in good condition immediately picked up the burning grass and trees in front of the city gate cave with difficulty under the command of Xu Rong, and cheered when they looked at the open city gate.
"Lord, they're coming out!" Xiahou Yuan heard the cheers coming from the city gate and hurriedly reminded Cao Cao.
"Shoot the arrows, light the fire!" Cao Cao excitedly shot the arrow in his hand, igniting the grain and grass cart full of hay outside the city gate. "The archers are ready, be sure to suppress Dong Zhuo for me, and never let him rush out."
cough cough cough, Dong Zhuo rushed into the simmering furnace-like city gate cave under the protection of everyone, and saw that the soldiers in front of him were quickly retreating, and hurriedly roared: "Don't rush out quickly, what are you doing when you retreat?" ”
"Lord...... Lord, there is fire everywhere outside. Xu Rong said with a dead heart.
"Hahaha, Dong Zhuo, did you ever think that there would be today!" Cao Cao heard Dong Zhuo's roar and immediately burst out laughing.
"Cao Cao?" Dong Zhuo gritted his teeth and shouted, "When our family rushes out, we will definitely roast you and drink wine." ”
"Hahaha, Dong Zhuo, what you said is what I want to give you! Although your Dong Zhuo's meat is even more filthy than that pork, I still have to eat two pieces. Cao Cao loudly returned Dong Zhuo's words through the sea of fire, and said sarcastically, "Dong Zhuo, you led three hundred bronzes, broke through the Heyangjin camp, captured Huai County strongly, defeated tens of thousands of people, and destroyed the grain route of our allies, but you can't escape from the palm of Your Majesty's hand after all, this fire will bury you in this tiger prison, at this moment, have you ever regretted it?" ”
"Liu Xie'er! Cao Cao! If the sky does not destroy me Dong Zhuo, I vow to exhaust the bloodline of the Liu family and the bloodline of the Cao family, so that there will be no more surnames Liu and Cao in this world! Dong Zhuo roared like crazy.
"Hmph, Dong Zhuo, you've done all the bad things, and the sky can let you go!" Cao Cao sarcastically shouted, wiped the water droplets off his face, and then stared blankly at the water stains on his hands.
"Lord, it's raining." Xiahou Yuan said in a very small voice.
Cao Cao looked up at the gradually increasing rain speechlessly, closed his eyes extremely unwillingly, and said through gritted teeth: "Retreat!" ”
"Hahaha, it's raining, it's raining." Li Wei struggled to his feet, stretched out his hands childlike and followed the rain that fell from the sky, and laughed silly.
"What! It's raining? Dong Zhuo rushed out of the city gate hole in a hurry, felt the coldness of the rain, and laughed loudly, "Hahaha, I, Dong Zhuo, have Kyushu Ding, and I have the favor of God, Liu Xie'er and Cao Cao, what can you do with your efforts?" ”
"Your Majesty." Gao Shun looked at the rain falling from the sky, and looked helplessly at Liu Xie, the son of heaven.
Stretching out his hand to follow the cold rain, Liu Xie looked at the smoke billowing Tiger Prison, smiled coldly, turned to look at Gao Shun and the others, and said categorically: "If you can't burn him Dong Zhuo today, then kill him Dong Zhuo in front of the battle in the future!" Go, the soldiers sent a letter to Guguan. ”
"Liu Xie! Cao Cao! You two are waiting for me......"
