Chapter 496: Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival (27)

The sound of metal grinding sounded when the arm rotated, and the thick metal long-rod thrower was slowly pulled to the end.

Secured with a metal steel pin, the two auxiliaries worked together to place a large clay incendiary bomb on top of the dropper. There were more clay pots on top of the cart next to it.

These pots are real incendiary bombs. Packed in a special clay pot is a combustion compound made from a mixture of gasoline, white phosphorus, aluminum, magnesium powder and other special chemicals. Once it burst and burned, the huge power was enough to turn a radius of hundreds of square meters into a human purgatory.

The outer layer of Gao Yang's special clay pot from modern time and space is very fragile, and after being thrown from the sky, it will immediately shatter when it hits the ground, scattering the incendiary objects in all directions. But it was very strong until it broke. The outside of the pot is coated with a special fuse material, which will continue to burn until it is extinguished, without affecting the compounds inside the pot.

When the auxiliaries of the Changsheng Army lit the clay pots one by one with torches, Chen Ning in the Song army camp was dumbfounded.

The Chang Shengjun defeated Yan Zonghan with fire under the city of Yingzhou, and many people know about it. But not many people know what it is.

Chen Ning and the generals of the Song Kingdom happened to be one of the people who knew. Before and after the capture of Yingzhou City, the Chang Shengjun gathered a lot of scattered deserters from the Song Kingdom. Most of these defeated soldiers participated in the extremely tragic battle of Yingzhou to defend the city.

After the retreat of the Jin State's Left Route Army, Chen Ning sent many people to contact the Changsheng Army. Those who were originally in the same army robe met and quickly began to talk.

It's not something that needs to be kept secret in the first place, and these people don't have any sense of confidentiality. The information that the fire oil in the clay pot burned the golden dog was soon learned by Chen Ning.

This kind of thing is produced in Shaanxi. Chen Ning has also seen it. But he never imagined that it would be so powerful! At that time, listening to the person who reported the report tell the terrifying scene of the fire oil guarding Yingzhou City, Chen Ning heard the corner of his eyes twitch, and his heart beat in shock.

It is difficult to transport and preserve the oil. Chen Ning knew all this, what he didn't expect was that Gao Yang actually brought these terrifying things over!

In the distance, the sunset was about to sink below the horizon, shining golden light on the carts next to the stone thrower. Looking at the layers of clay pots, the corners of Chen Ning's eyes almost twitched!

One by one, the flames were ignited, like the soul-grabbing fire of eternal cause in hell, which made Chen Ning almost frightened.

Your own battalion can't withstand such a terrible fire!

Even if you desperately take the people who are determined to die at this moment to destroy those stone throwers, it is too late.

Not to mention that his side is completely unprepared, even if he wants to attack to the death, he can't find enough people. Besides, it's dense outside. Do the seemingly boundless victorious army and horses all eat white rice? Will they watch their people rush out and destroy the trebuchets?

"I can't help it." Chen Ning, whose face was ashen, came to the generals. said in a deep voice with an extremely ugly face. Tilting his head slightly, with his hands behind his back, he stood slightly sideways beside Li Ye.

"Straight sissy thief! This Gao Yang! It's his business, why do you want to stand up for those leaders?! Li Ye felt that he was about to go crazy. What happened today gave him a sense of powerlessness. Now. Facing a life-and-death situation. He can't control himself anymore.

The many generals were silent. It's just that the eyes that looked at Li Ye were full of resentment. It didn't have anything to do with them in the first place. At this moment, he was dragged into a desperate situation by the Li brothers.

Everyone in that Gao Yang has not had much contact, and when I saw it in the past, it seemed to be quite good. It's not like it's tyrannical and murderous.

Until this moment, after being surrounded by a large army, the tragic scene of burning the camp with fire oil is about to happen. That's when they understood. In such a short period of time, people started from scratch to today's Cheng DΓΉ, with tens of thousands of Jurchen blood on their hands, where can there be any kind people!

If you start fighting directly without saying a word like now, you will completely overwhelm everyone from the momentum.

The generals were starting to despair. There was nothing around them that could save their Imperial Song army. On the contrary, there are many ordinary people who want to fall into the ground. They themselves are almost the last capable army in the entire Song Kingdom, who else can be counted on to rescue them?

Besides, they originally went to King Qin of Bianliang City. Now that it's like this, Gao Yang can pat his ass and walk away, what should they do? Can the court still let them go?

Of course, if they live to see the sun tomorrow!

"Straight sissy thief! Lao Tzu had long seen that Gao Yang was not a good thing! Damn, I know very well in my heart that if I get it like this, no matter whether today's things can pass or not, he Li Ye will definitely be finished. Either die here, or after escaping the catastrophe, because he messed up King Qin's plan, instead of making a contribution at the time of King Qin, he entered Beijing without an edict, then his fate will definitely be very bleak.

Li Ye, who was completely in despair, had red eyes, and his whole person was already a little crazy. He didn't notice what the generals around him were making eye contact.

"Bang!" A blow to the scabbard slammed into Li Ye's head. immediately smashed Li Ye to the ground.

Many of Chen Ning's guards swarmed up and tied up Li Ye and his guards.

"Brother Li, I'm sorry. We can't die in a place like this. Besides, this incident was originally caused by your brothers, and now that something happens, it is naturally up to you to fight it yourself. Chen Ning looked at Li Ye, who was set up like a dead dog, sighed, and said.

His heart was not good. Everyone is a colleague of the Great Song Dynasty, but now they have to sell their robes with their own hands under the coercion of an outsider. It's a really bad feeling.

Only, he had no choice. I was thinking about fighting Gao Yang before, but after seeing those bed crossbows and stone throwers, I realized that I was completely daydreaming! People can use fire oil to burn the camp to ashes at will. But on his side, he didn't even have the strength to fight back!

This is no longer a battle, this is purely looking for death! With no other choice, Chen Ning could only hand over the Li Ye brothers to get out. As for today's vengeance, it will be avenged tomorrow!

The gates of the camp were opened. Dozens of Song sergeants with Fan Yangli ran out and removed all the antlers outside the gate.

Chen Ning rode a war horse and led dozens of people to escort Li Ye towards Gaoyang.

Gao Yang stretched out his hand to push away the face armor and waved his hand to let the former soldiers go.

Chen Ning and the others soon came to Gao Yang's side. Got down from the warhorse, clasped his hands into fists, bowed to Gao Yang, and said expressionlessly, "Lord Gao." It's a shame for us to have this happening. Don't say anything else, this scum will be handed over to the master of the high general! ”

"This man has bad intentions." Yuan Dian said softly.

"I know." Gao Yang looked relaxed, smiled, and said to Chen Ning, "Isn't it all over like this earlier." Since you dare to do it, you must dare to take responsibility. ”

lowered his head slightly, and looked at Li Ye, who was still fainting and was being held by the guards. The corners of his mouth curled, and an inexplicable smile hung on his face. said: "After all, I am not from your Song Kingdom. This time I came at the request of the people to eliminate harm for the people. How to convict and how to carry out the execution is up to you. ”

Hearing Gao Yang's words, Chen Ning immediately breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. It's good that Gao Yang didn't turn his face directly! What Chen Ning was most worried about was that Gao Yang had bad intentions and wanted to annex them!

He personally brought Li Ye over, on the one hand, because he was the nominal commander, and he couldn't shirk it. Also, he needed to test whether Gao Yang would take this opportunity to swallow them.

The other generals are watching in the camp, once something happens to him, those generals will immediately come out with military horses and fight with Gao Yang!

Fortunately, Gao Yang didn't have this thought.

Gao Yang stretched out his finger and pointed at Li Ye and said, "Just him?" ”

Chen Ning gritted his teeth and said, "There are also accomplices, these people deserve to be punished!" However, after all, they are court officials, and how to convict them can only be investigated by the decree of the court. ”

"Hmm." Gao Yang nodded and said, "That's what I said." However, you must arrest all those involved in the work and let the people identify them. You can't find someone to pretend to be guilty. ”

"Of course." Chen Ning immediately said. In his heart, he was secretly complaining that Gao Yang didn't understand the rules of officialdom. When the matter arrives at the imperial court, someone will naturally come forward to turn around. When the time comes, how to interrogate and how to convict is not something that you, an outsider, can interfere with. Today's events will inevitably be broken with you in the future!

Soon, many of the Fengxiang Army sergeants who participated in the looting were arrested. Even Li Cheng was carried out.

Some of the villagers who had been looted came forward to identify them one by one, insulting and beating them.

The victorious army also began to retreat gradually. The bed crossbow and the stone thrower were put away, and they were taken back to the camp by pack horses. Many sergeants also began to line up and return in order.

"By the way, why didn't you tell me that you were short of military supplies? How can they be reduced to plundering their own people? It's really unproductive! Gao Yang mercilessly ridiculed.

Chen Ning's face was red and speechless, and after half a sound, he sighed heavily and said, "Thousands of mistakes are my fault!" ”

"Forget it." Gao Yang waved his hand and said, "In the future, I will supply all your military supplies." There is no shortage of you mouths to eat. ”

Chen Ning immediately showed a smiling face, smiled, and said, "Thank you, General Gao." ”

"Hmm." Gao Yang nodded and said, "I'll give you three days of food first, and I'll get it from me later." ”

Soon, a large cart loaded with grain and straw came to the outside of the Song army camp. Looking at the grain and meat piled up on those carts, the Song soldiers in the barracks immediately became noisy.

The auxiliaries of the victorious army unloaded their belongings from the cart and put them in front of the gate, and when they were all done, they turned around and returned to their camp. (To be continued......)
