Chapter Seventy-Six: The Trapped Beast Fights
The frozen river was filled with fires, and the rolling heat waves and howling cold winds alternated, making people feel uncomfortable dizzy and drowsy, but in this sudden change of temperature difference, the spirit is awake again.
Liu Bei's 100,000 army, whether it was a veteran or a recruit or a militia, at this moment has recovered to the essence of a weak, humble and fragile person, screaming in the sea of fire, fleeing on the frozen river, the situation is chaotic, even if it is a general with strong command ability, he has no ability to organize an effective counterattack or retreat of the whole army at this moment, of course, there is no general with strong command ability in Liu Bei's army.
It is the common sense of the ancients that water and fire are incompatible, not to mention that the extreme ice and fire of water must be dissipated silently into an ethereal nothingness once they come into contact. However, at this time, on the frozen surface of the Yangtze River, the monstrous fire burned peacefully on the ice, burning more and more, and a wave of heat hit, and the 30,000 Jiangdong soldiers did not believe that this was true.
And Liu Bei's army, which fled and wailed in the sea of fire, had no free space to think about the problem of water and fire. Liu Bei began to cry from the beginning of the fire, the monstrous heat wave, the cold coming from the soles of his feet, and the screaming and fleeing soldiers all around, nothing could stop Liu Bei's crying.
At this time, Sun Gan came to Liu Bei and shouted: "Don't panic, my lord, the enemy generals are ignorant and set fire on the river, water and fire are incompatible, how can it burn big?" As he spoke, he pointed to the surface of the river where the ice had melted, and the flames on the puddles were extinguished, "Lord, you see, a lot of ice is now melting under the fire, really, how can a fire be ignited on the water, if it goes on like this, it will not be long before the fire on the ice will be extinguished." We just need to hold on a little longer, and when the fire is extinguished, we can attack it! ”
Let's not talk about what Sun Qian said about the fire can't burn on the water, right? At this time, as soon as Liu Bei heard Sun Gan's words, he suddenly felt like a person struggling up and down the water, grabbing something indiscriminately, whether it was a wooden board or a straw, and let it go. Liu Bei immediately ordered the well-trained soldiers to go down, with Liu Bei as the core, and waited for the fire on the river to be extinguished.
Sun Gan glanced at the soldiers who converged towards Liu Bei next to Liu Bei, and at the bottom of the monstrous flames on the frozen river after the soldiers retreated, there was a corpse with a collapsed head and feet and a body that was still struggling to breathe but had no way to live, which was ignited by the flames, and "Zizizi" burned brightly, emitting a pungent black smoke. Those living creatures who had been around one moment before and had looked at death as if they were at home had now become wisps of unbearable and tiresome smoke, which rose slowly under the scorching fire, and when the north wind blew, it dissipated between heaven and earth.
Patience and compassion gradually permeated Sun Gan's heart, he looked at Liu Bei, and found that Liu Bei's eyes were dazed, Liu Bei didn't find out at all that it was he Liu Bei who brought pain to these people, he didn't care, and he wouldn't care. Benevolence? Liu Bei brought these people only an ethereal hope for the future and real war and death. Sun Gan is now more and more suspicious of his own decision, although the career is the avenue, but since following Liu Bei, he has been in exile all day long, hungry, fleeing in all directions, and now he has to watch the unarmed militiamen lying on the ice and being burned alive by the fire, and his own compassion constantly tortures him, but he has no ability to save them. Although the social status of businessmen is the lowest, not to mention that he was the top figure in the entire business circle, he is highly valued and admired by his peers. Just say that you can do whatever you want to do, unrestrained, chic and free. And now, hehe.
"Lord, General Sun, the river is almost melting, you see, the fire is extinguished!" The soldiers beside Sun Qian and Liu Bei shouted.
Liu Bei and Sun Qian came back to their senses, only to see that there was already about half an inch of ice melted water on the ice around them, and only the faint light of the fire could be faintly seen on the shore of Caisang in the distance.
"Lord, the time has come, you can lead the army to charge!" Sun Qian said in high spirits.
"Okay, God help me!" Liu Bei shouted.
On the south bank of the Yangtze River, the monstrous flames burned directly on the surface of the river, although the light drift was close to nothingness, but the bursts of heat waves still reminded the Jiangdong soldiers that the fire burned directly on the river. Zhou Yu looked at Liu Beijun, who was about to charge on the ice in the middle of the river, and shouted:
"Reorganize your army and prepare for battle!" The Jiangdong soldiers were immediately on alert.
"People! Come on! Ahead is our wonderful home! Liu Bei erupted again.
Shouts, howls, hisses, and rushing sounds of killing are instantly raised, endlessly, although more than half of the 100,000 troops were killed and wounded, but the momentum is not reduced as before, Zhou Yu and others feel the momentum of the oncoming pressure, and now, there is no strategy at all, it is a hard battle. The 30,000 soldiers in Jiangdong all knew that the fire of Governor Zhou Yu burned half of Liu Bei's men and horses, which can be said to be indispensable, but now, it depends on his ability to fight.
"Boom, boom." The sound came from the surface of the river, which made everyone stunned, only to see the ice in front of them "pop" cracking, the hideous huge ice block sank into the bottom of the water in the cracking, and the corner of the water was exposed in the air, and Liu Bei, who charged on the ice, fell on the poured ice, fell into the river, splashing several meters high. Some militiamen who were full of fighting spirit were still rushing towards the south bank of the river, only to hear a few "crackling" sounds stepping on the thin ice, the ice surface was broken, and the "coaxing dong" fell into the water one by one, and the wailing came from under the ice, but the people on the ice could not do anything; There were only pits left on the ice, and the tumbling water gushed out of the pits, carrying a faintly visible heat.
Then, the ice pattern on the surface of the "Zizizi" river extended to all directions, and everyone under Liu Bei's command, who was stagnant on the ice, quietly watched the crack expand on the ice, as if numbly watching the demon attack on his own people, once the ice pattern extended to his feet, his eyes suddenly widened, and he fled in all directions after being stunned for a moment, and the ice pattern extended far away from himself, announcing that he was free from the attack of death, and breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately someone crowded over, and he quarreled with him in order to defend himself from the broken ice, and even fought.
For a time, Liu Bei's army was in chaos, and the whole army was isolated on the ice like an island. Liu Bei, Sun Qian, and other generals did not advance, nor did they retreat, it seemed that they could only wait for death.
Zhou Yu also guessed that the frozen river would be broken and unsealed after being grilled by a fire and trampled by Liu Bei's 100,000 troops, but he was still ready to fight Liu Bei's army on the ice. Now that the ice continues to melt, the last power surnamed Liu will be white, and the last faint hope of the Han Dynasty will dissipate here.
"Governor, what now? Lead the boys to rush up? Huang Gai asked Zhou Yu.
"There's no hurry." Zhou Yu said lightly, and then asked his soldiers to order the archers: "Light all the arrow feathers on fire, and shoot them one by one towards the center of the Xiangjiang River." Accelerates ice melting. ”
Sometimes sparse and sometimes dense rockets shot out one after another, Liu Bei's soldiers on the ice hurriedly dodged, and countless people who tripped and fell were lying on the gradually melting ice wailing. A rocket hit the ice covered with water, and it went out with a bang. However, tens of thousands of arrow feathers pressed onto the ice with flames, and the high temperature of the flames instantly melted the ice.
The Yangtze River in the north of the Yangtze River Caisang City has temporarily restored its original appearance, looking down from the sky, the Yangtze River like a giant dragon still has many areas that are frozen, and the unsealed ice surface in the north of Caisang City is like a small lake on the vast ice field; For Liu Bei and others who are in it, the only place they can stay in is the ice cubes between the flowing waters, struggling to stay on the ice, as if they are on an isolated island on the ocean, and there is only disappointment and despair in their hearts. And those who can't stay on the ice can only struggle in the zero river, and then the chill invades their hearts and falls asleep.
