Chapter 370: The camp is on fire

Meng Shu was about to ride his horse forward, but when he went to the grass pile and saw that the fire was burning, he heard Zhu Rong's words, so he restrained the horse and raised the axe in his hand.

I could only hear a series of sounds such as "boom", "boom", "dang", and "ah", and this series of sounds came out almost at the same time, and it was impossible to tell where it came from unless it was for someone with excellent ear. The first "boom" was that Meng You pulled the bowstring in the formation, the second "boom" was that Zhao Yun shot back with an arrow, and the sound of "dang" was a few sparks flashing in front of Zhu Rong, Liu Xin shot out a flying knife that was blocking the arrow cluster, and the last "ah" was Meng You's arrow in front of the door, fell off the horse, and let out a scream before dying.

When Meng Yu went back to change horses just now, he had already made up his mind, he couldn't get Zhu Rong and couldn't let Liu Xin get her, Meng You's arrow was shot at his behest, and raising the sharp axe was the code they agreed.

Today is the moment for Zhu Rong to show her "divine power", she is the protagonist of today, and she only needs to step forward alone. However, Liu Xin knew that Meng Huo was a scheming guy, Zhu Rong was simple-hearted, and he was definitely not Meng Huo's opponent, Liu Xin naturally would not rest assured that she would step forward alone, so he insisted on staying by his side.

Although Liu Xin didn't speak, he always paid attention to the movement on the other side. Not only Liu Xin, but also Zhao Yun and Dian Wei, who are not careful. As soon as Meng You launched on the battlefield over there, Zhao Yun followed closely here and shot an arrow. And Liu Xin's reaction was half a beat slower than Zhao Yun's, and it wasn't until the arrow shot by Meng You reached Zhu Rong that he sent out a flying knife to knock the arrow into the dust, and almost at the same time, Zhao Yun's sharp arrow had already penetrated through the back of Meng You's head.

All this happened between the lightning and the stone, and many people didn't see what was going on at all, and they found that Meng You screamed miserably and fell to the ground, with only half of the carved feather exposed at the door of his head, and it can be imagined how powerful Zhao Yun's arrow was.

As for the flying knife shot by Liu Xin, except for a very few people who knew Liu Xin's methods, the others didn't even know how the arrow shot by Meng You fell to the ground. In the eyes of most of the barbarians in the coalition army, the fire light emitted by the collision of the flying knife and the arrow cluster is clearly the best proof that Zhu Rong has the mana of the fire god, and anyone who wants to hurt Zhu Rong, the descendant of the fire god, will only end up the same as Meng You.

The open gun is easy to dodge, but the hidden arrow is difficult to defend, with Zhu Rong's arrogant personality, she would never have imagined that Meng You would suddenly plot, and this sudden scene also scared her. However, she soon understood that it was Liu Xin who saved her, and couldn't help but turn her head and smile gratefully at him.

For today's "performance", Zhu Rong has really put a lot of effort into it. In the past ten days, Zhu Rong and Liu Xin really did not stay in the barracks, but went to Wuling County together, and at the same time sent a meteor fast horse to summon the "old fairy" Yu Ji over.

Over the years, Yu Ji has changed from an old god stick to a well-known "artist" in Xiangyang City, he has recruited a wide range of disciples, and the content of illusion has also developed greatly. However, Zhu Rong didn't need to learn all his skills, as long as he mastered a few fire-related illusions. However, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Liu Xin still did not sit in the barracks and wait, but took Zhu Rong to take the initiative to meet him halfway, and found a secret place in Wuling City to learn illusions.

Just now, Zhu Rongyang threw out his hand, and what hit Meng Huo's horse was something similar to a firework bomb, which was not very powerful, but it was enough to frighten the untrained war horse. The seven-colored flame she unleashed was a kind of burning effect produced by some yellow phosphorus and various mineral powders, thrown out, and rubbed against the air. These things look magical, but once you understand the reason, there is nothing special about it.

In fact, Yu Ji has many more magical illusions, such as conjuring a flock of pigeons, or conjuring a few blooming peonies, and there are also many more clever illusions about "fire". But these illusions require a relatively high level of skill, and they cannot be trained in just a few days. Therefore, Liu Xin didn't think about letting Zhu Rong practice those complicated illusions, most of the barbarians on the other side had never seen anything in the world, as long as they could bluff them over.

However, that haystack can not be ignited by illusion, maybe Yu Ji has this ability, but in the past few days, Zhu Rong will definitely not be able to practice such a clever technique.

This haystack was piled up there by Meng Shucai last night. Liu Xin arranged a lot of patrols in front of the two armies, and the small actions made by Meng Xu had already been reported to Liu Xin, how could Liu Xin not understand his intentions, so he also made arrangements-for-tat.

Guo Jia had already suggested that if he wanted to attack the Meng family alone without causing too many casualties to other barbarian tribes, the only way was to make a surprise attack. And the best candidates to carry out the surprise attack are naturally the special forces he trained.

Underneath the haystack, a small squad of special forces ambushed a tunnel that led to it overnight and sprinkled some fish oil on the haystack. This fish oil is also a prop for Yu Ji to perform illusions, which is colorless and odorless, but it is extremely flammable and cannot be extinguished by water. When Zhu Rong shouted "on", the special forces who were ambushed below set fire to the haystack, and fish oil was added to the haystack, so the scene that Meng Yu imagined that the burn would be extinguished after a while did not appear. However, it was very wet under the haystack, and a puff of smoke gradually rose.

Zhu Rong not only wants revenge, but also has the heart to protect the clan, she has also thought about today's things for a long time, and when she saw the success of her "performance", she took the opportunity to shout: "There is a wrong, and there is a debtor!" Everything was picked out by Meng Huo, and I just asked! The rest of the people scattered! ”

She said this in barbarian, and Liu Xin only listened to her muttering on the phone, and then saw that the barbarian soldiers in the opposite formation made a commotion again.

Meng Shu saw that his own brother was killed by an arrow, and he listened to Zhu Rong's shouting like a knife, and shouted: "Give it to me, kill that slut!" ”

Busy Tooth Chang, Dong Dana and the others glanced at each other, but no one was there, even Yang Feng just raised his hand to restrain his team. But Meng Huo was the patriarch of the Meng family, and the barbarians of other tribes could not obey his command, but it was impossible for the people of the Meng family not to listen. With his order, more than 20,000 barbarian soldiers of the Meng family rushed over like a tide.

Liu Xin saw the barbarians on the opposite side rushing over, pulled the reins of Zhurong's fiery red horse, turned around and left. Dian Wei shouted in the middle of the formation: "Protect the lord!" ”

With Dian Wei's shout, tens of thousands of Han soldiers also rushed forward, blocking in front of Liu Xin and Zhu Rong, and collided with Meng Shu's brute soldiers.

This is a real duel, for this kind of large-scale battle, it requires martial arts, courage, but more importantly, it requires the cooperation between comrades. When the spear in your hand is stabbed out, there will be countless flaws around you, and at this time, you can only completely surrender your safety to your comrades and rely on them to protect yourself, and only in this way can you be confident and bold to assassinate with all your might. Although the barbarians were fierce, they obviously lacked such training, and in the blink of an eye, they were slaughtered by the Han army, and a seemingly evenly matched battle quickly turned into a one-sided massacre.

Zhu Rong and Liu Xin had already retreated to their main formation, watching their clansmen fall down one after another, Zhu Rong only felt his heart tight, and couldn't help but turn his head and said, "Brother......"

The situation has developed to such a point that it was completely unexpected by Liu Xin, who originally planned to use Zhu Rong to exert his "divine power" to scare off the barbarian tribes. Then he took advantage of the night to set fire to the camp of the South Central Alliance, indicating that the fire god would condemn him. Finally, taking advantage of the turmoil in the hearts of the barbarian tribes in Nanzhong, he let the Han army lurking in the woods and Lu Kai's military camp raid Meng Shu's camp. In the past few days, thousands of elite Han soldiers and special forces soldiers have sneaked over in batches, just waiting for the signal tonight.

However, in the face of Meng Huo's suicidal attack, Liu Xin naturally couldn't let go of these opportunities to hit the Meng family hard, he didn't wait for Zhu Rong to finish speaking, he pointed the horse whip in his hand towards the fighting crowd, and said: "Rong'er, now the two sides are fighting together, if I order the troops to be collected now, Meng Huo will definitely be killed later, I must be responsible for the lives of the soldiers, this is not the time to practice the benevolence of women!" ”

Zhu Rong sighed and said, "Brother, you are the commander, how to fight this battle is up to you, Zhu Rong will never dare to complain." ”

Liu Xin nodded approvingly at her, turned his head and said, "Zilong, you lead a team of men and horses to attack the opponent's right flank!" The reward for capturing Liu Dan alive is 100 taels, and the reward for taking his head is 50 taels! ”

The right flank of the South-Central Coalition Army is Yonghong and Gaoding, and Liu Dan is actually just a "cursor commander", but he trusts Yonghong the most, so he always stays with him. Seeing that the barbarian tribes were shocked by the "divine power" displayed by Zhu Rong, Liu Dan already knew that the situation was irreversible, and before the Han army rushed over, he pulled out his horse's head and quietly retreated to the rear.

Seeing that Meng Huo's barbarians were at a disadvantage on the battlefield, Yonghong turned his head and said to Gao Ding: "Lord Gao, things are not harmonious, you and I should go back to our own county and refuse to defend at risk." ”

Gao Ding was about to talk, when he saw the Han army on the opposite side killing them violently, and the target was exactly them, he couldn't help but be frightened, and said loudly: "Lord Yong, you can't stay here for a long time, quickly withdraw the troops!" ”

He turned around twice, only to find that Liu Dan had fled in front of them.

Yang Feng saw that Meng was about to be defeated, Liu Dan, Yonghong, and Gao Ding all fled, and was hesitating to send troops to help, when he suddenly heard the busy tooth chief exclaim: "Look, everyone, the camp is on fire!" ”

Jinhuan Sanjie hurriedly said: "Then what are you waiting for, go back and put out the fire!" If you burn the grain and grass, you don't need the Han army to fight, and you will be finished first! ”

Yang Feng only felt a chill in his heart, he knew that after today's battle, even if Meng Shu was able to escape with his life, the Meng family was also greatly injured, losing more than 20,000 young people, and the strength of the Meng family was not even as good as himself, and he said something to compete for the position of the barbarian king, and couldn't help shouting: "Everyone, slow down!" Don't go back! ”
