"Newspaper~~"

Ma Yue's voice fell, and a terrible long howl suddenly sounded from the front, and he looked up in shock, only to see a sudden horse flying, galloping back from the front.

"My lord, Mr. Guo Tu and General Gao Shun led more than 500 horsemen to wait for each other twenty miles ahead."

"Hmm~~ How many enemy troops are chasing?"

"No enemy troops were found."

"Huh?"

Ma Yue's expression was awe-inspiring, and he exchanged glances with Jia Xu, and both of them saw a trace of horror in each other's eyes, how could Guo Tu and Gao Shun appear twenty miles ahead? What's even more amazing is that there is no enemy pursuit! Could it be that they withdrew from the city before the enemy troops came to the city?

If this is the case, then Ma Yue's plan to lure the enemy is likely to fall short!

In order to put the bait down and ensure that the enemy army is deceived, Ma Yue did not hesitate to order Liao Hua to be the main general, Gao Shun and Guo Tu as deputy generals, urgently repaired and heightened the city wall, and put on a posture of defending Meiji and waiting for the Hou army to come back.

Even Liao Hua and Gao Shun didn't know that defending Meiji was just a trick to lure the enemy.

However, before breaking the city, Guo Tu will tell Liao Hua and Gao Shun the overall plan at the right time, and then the Meiji defenders will use Gao Shun's trap camp as the pioneer and abandon the city to break through! There are more than one enemy who will attack all the way, and they must be intriguing with each other, and they all want to break into the city as soon as possible to seize the grain, grass, baggage and women, and they will definitely not do their best to pursue and kill the army that broke through.

In this way, Gao Shun's trapping camp has a great chance to break out of the encirclement, and Ma Yue's plan to lure the enemy has been at least half successful. However, now Guo Tu and Gao Shun only led more than 500 cavalry to appear twenty miles ahead, and there was no enemy pursuit, which is a bit extraordinary!

Jia Xu's eyes flashed, and he said to Ma Yue: "Lord, whether the situation has changed, you will know when you ask after seeing the princess." ”

"Hmm." Ma Yue nodded solemnly, Huo Ran raised his right arm and said quickly, "Order, the army will speed up its march and immediately go to join Guo Tu and Gao Shun's army." ”

"Yes."

More than a dozen cavalry heralds roared, led the order, and quickly conveyed Ma Yue's military order, and in less than a moment, the nine thousand army accelerated the march and surged towards the north.

……

West of Meiji City.

Liang Xing and Ma Wanxing hurriedly came to Han Sui.

Ma Yuxi smiled and said: "Lord, there are so many women in the city, his grandmother's, this horse butcher is really generous, he actually robbed so many women!" Although the last general did not count in detail, it would be 50,000 or 60,000 to say the least. ”

Liang Xing scratched his head happily and said, "Yes, it's enough for each of the brothers to divide two, hehe." ”

Han Sui hurriedly said: "What about the general's mansion of the horse butcher?" Fenced in! ”

Han Sui was thinking about Ma Yue's women in his heart, the horse butcher snatched so many women from the Hu tribe outside the Saiwai, and he must have left many excellent women for his own enjoyment, and other women Han Sui could share with the soldiers, and he was unwilling to share these best women with the soldiers.

Liang Xing sighed and replied: "Lord, this matter is a little strange, the last general did not find the general's mansion of the horse butcher in the city. ”

Ma played: "Yes, my lord, the most humble wooden houses and grass huts are built in the city, and there is no decent mansion at all, probably because Meiji City has been abandoned for a long time, and the horse butcher has not yet had time to build his general's mansion." ”

Han Sui said: "Well, it must be so, you have to search carefully, you must not miss the woman of the horse butcher!" ”

Liang Xing and Ma Playyin said with a smile: "Don't worry, the lord will not disgrace his life." ”

Han Sui scolded with a smile: "Go quickly." ”

"Report~~" Han Sui's voice fell, and suddenly Colonel Xiliang galloped back in front of him, and said loudly, "General, our army and the Jizhou army have fought." ”

"What!" Han Suiyu's eyebrows furrowed, and he said in a condensed voice, "What's the matter?" ”

Colonel Xiliang said: "Our army first found a warehouse of grain and grass in the city, but the Jizhou soldiers insisted that they found it first, and the two sides fought without saying a word. Fortunately, the soldiers on both sides were afraid of the big problem and did not dare to use their swords, but if the situation is allowed to develop, the situation is likely to get out of control. ”

"Bastard, these Jizhou soldiers are too hateful!" Han Sui said quickly, "Let's go, take General Ben forward." ”

"Oh yes~~" Han Sui rode his horse and took two steps forward, and suddenly grabbed the reins of the horse and said to the horse, "Horse play, you immediately gather five thousand iron horses, and then rush over." ”

The horse played on the horse's back and clenched his fists and said, "The last general will take the order." ”

"Drive!"

Han Sui shouted, grabbed the horse's belly with his legs, and galloped forward, and hundreds of iron horsemen behind him followed like shadows, surging along the street.

……

East of Meiji Castle.

The guards of dozens of cavalry soldiers slowly stepped into the city gate, and as far as the eye could see, they saw that the city was built with simple wooden huts and grass huts, dense and continuous, and the wood used to build the wooden houses was still new, and the thatched grass covered by the grass huts was also green, which was not conducive to fire attack.

In the streets and alleys left between wooden sheds and thatched huts, many unkempt and barefoot women in bearded clothes are running in all directions, screaming piercing as they flee, and groups of Jizhou soldiers are chasing after these women, all with extremely silver smiles on their faces.

Many of the leading generals laughed in the streets, with no intention of stopping them.

The careful frustration also found that the ground in the city was actually black! Even the bottom layer of the surrounding city walls is black, and the effect of Meiji City is loess, so why did Ma Yue take the trouble to transport such a large number of black soil from afar to build the city? Could it be that Ma Yue has a special fetish for blackness?

I felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't think of anything wrong.

"Found it!"

When he was in shock, an extremely terrible howl suddenly sounded in front of him, and then a group of Jizhou soldiers carrying a stretcher rushed over in a hurry.

"Strategist, I found it, I found the body of General Gao Lan!"

General Gao Ran? Frustrated with his eyes, he didn't care about thinking about what was wrong, and hurriedly rode his horse towards the group of Jizhou soldiers, and Frustrated's own soldiers had already rushed forward to open the way and blasted away the Jizhou infantry in front of him. After coming to the stretcher, he found that Gao Ran's body was no longer sincere, with an open abdominal cavity, a dripping intestine, and a body covered with knife wounds and gunshot sores.

"General Gao Ran!" He sighed gloomily and commanded in a condensed voice, "Order, immediately cut down wood to build a good coffin, and send the body of General Gao Lan back to the river." ”

"Military Division~" The frustrated voice fell, and suddenly Geng Wu came in a hurry, and said quickly, "The military advisor is not good, General Pan Feng, General Pan Feng~~"

Frustrated, he hurriedly said, "What's wrong with General Pan Feng?" ”

Geng Wudao: "General Pan Feng and General Han Sui disagreed, and they were about to fight, and now the two armies of four or five thousand people are facing each other in the city. ”

"Huh!?" Frustrated and shocked, he said, "How could this happen?" ”

……

"Lord!" Guo Tu hurried to Ma Yue, knelt on the ground, and said gloomily, "Tu is incompetent~~ I failed to complete the important task of the main bus support, which disappointed you." ”

Ma Yue turned over and dismounted, helped Guo Tu up, and said in a deep voice: "Gong Zhi and take it slowly, what is going on?" ”

"Alas~~" Guo Tu sighed and said gloomily, "It's all to blame for being negligent in the next moment, I didn't expect General Liaohua to him, he~~"

Ma Yue frowned and said, "What's wrong with Liao Hua?" ”

Gao Shun said: "Lord, this matter is still up to the last general." ”

Ma Yue said: "Speak." ”

Gao Shun said: "Things need to start thirteen days ago, that is, the day after the lord led the army into the Sea of Death, Tanma discovered the whereabouts of the Liangzhou army and the Jizhou army at the same time in Linrong and Mayi!" The two armies were surging and advancing rapidly, far beyond the expectations of our army. ”

"Hmm~"

"The two armies are only ten days away from Meiji, and the lord's army is nowhere to be found, Mr. Guo Tu then ordered the last five thousand Wuhuan young men in the city to be armed, escort all the young women and children in Meiji City to transfer, and when the Liangzhou army and Jizhou army soldiers came to the city, the young women under the age of thirty and all the children in the city had already been transferred."

As long as the woman and the child are still around, there is still hope for everything.

A hint of relief flashed in Ma Yue's eyes, nodded appreciatively, and said, "Go on." ”

Gao Shun said: "Three days ago, the Meiji city wall was finally raised to four zhang, and the Liangzhou army and the Jizhou army finally came to the city. In addition to the 5,000 troops responsible for defending the city, the remaining 5,000 Wuhuan Qingzhuang have also escorted the women and children away, and the rest are all old people and women, and our army can not draw more troops to see the slaves in the city, so Mr. Guo Tu had to order more than 10,000 slaves to be shot. ”

Guo Tu said gloomily: "I failed to leave those more than 10,000 slaves behind, which disappointed the lord." ”

Ma Yue's eyes couldn't help but pass a trace of regret, this is more than 10,000 slaves! However, Guo Tu's decision was undoubtedly wise, and if he replaced him and Ma Yue himself, he would also order more than 10,000 slaves to be shot under the circumstances! In any case, the most important thing is to destroy the invading enemy and preserve the foundation of the Hetao.

"No, you're doing a good job." Ma Yue said in a condensed voice, "If General Ben himself is replaced, he will do the same." ”

Gao Shun continued: "That night, General Liao Hua found the last general, and thought that Meiji City could not be defended, and at most it could be held for two days, so General Liao Hua knocked Mr. Guo Tu unconscious when the city was deliberating, and then ordered the last general to lead troops to escort Mr. out of the southern city, and the last general sent troops to escort Mr. Guo Tu out of the city at night. ”

Ma Yue was stunned and said, "How can this be? ”

Jia Xu also choked and said: "This Liaohua, alas~~"

Guo Tu sighed and said: "When I woke up, I was already a hundred and ten miles away, but when I was rushing back, I encountered General Gao Shun's trap camp halfway, and I figured out what happened." ”

Ma Yue asked Gao Shundao, "What's going on?" ”

Gao Shun said: "After sending Mr. Guo Tu away, the Jizhou army began to attack the city the next day, the Jizhou soldiers are brave and good at fighting, and the feats are rapid, our army is mostly new soldiers, and as soon as the battle is engaged, there are heavy losses, and nearly 2,000 people were killed and wounded in less than a day!" There are less than 3,000 defenders left in the city, and the situation is already precarious! The last general intended to defend Meiji with General Liao Hua and die with the city, but he didn't want General Liao Hua to drugged the last general in the wine, and then sent the camp to escort the last general out of the city overnight, and General Liao Hua he~~"

Ma Yue lost his voice and said, "What's wrong with Liao Hua?" ”

Gao Shun said gloomily: "General Liao Hua led his army to defend the city until the city was broken and died with the enemy. ”

"Huh?"

"General Liao Hua also asked the last general to bring a word to the lord."

"Speak."

"Liao Hua is not good at leading troops and has no improper courage, let alone strategizing like Mr. Jia Xu and Mr. Guo Tu, winning thousands of miles away. Now ~~ the lord is in trouble, and Liao Hua can only kill himself to revenge, that's all. ”

"Huh?"

Ma Yue snorted, and his face turned red in an instant.

Guo Tu said gloomily: "It's all to blame for being careless at the next moment, and failing to reveal the lord's plan to lure the enemy in time to the two generals know, resulting in this mistake." ”

"Liaohua~~"

Ma Yue suddenly raised his head to the sky and let out a long howl, opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood, and fell backwards.

"Brozy!"

"Lord!"

"Lord!"

Gao Shun, Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Pei Yuanshao and other generals hurriedly rushed forward, helped Ma Yue up, and it took a long time for Ma Yue to wake up, looking at the sky, his eyes showed bitter hatred, and he gritted his teeth and said: "This general swears to the sky, and he will kill all the enemies who come to attack ~~ Martyrdom for Liao Hua!" ”

"Yes!"

"Kill all the enemies who come to you!"

"Martyrdom for Liao Hua!"

The generals responded violently, got up and faced the north, their eyes were revealing an inexplicable murderous intent, and the next moment, the soldiers of the three armies also waved the weapons in their hands, followed by a loud howl, for a time the landslide cracked, the stone broke the sky, the sky and the earth changed color, and the wind whimpered~~

In the shouts of the landslide and the crack, Jia Xu called Gao Shun, Xu Chu, Dian Wei, and Pei Yuanshao to his side, and ordered it again, and the four generals nodded one after another, and each picked up fifty elite horsemen to leave the army and scattered, and in less than a moment, these four elite horses disappeared on the vast horizon.

Not long after the departure of the four elite cavalry, Ma Yue's army marched north again, but the speed of the march slowed down, Liao Hua was dead, Meiji was lost, and the rapid march was meaningless.

……

Meiji.

Pan Fenghuan's eyes widened, and he shouted domineeringly: "If it weren't for the desperate fierce battle of our Jizhou army, how would you Xiliang barbarians enter Meiji City?" It's so unbelievable that they are now grabbing land and women with us in turn! This general restricts you to a pillar of incense to withdraw from the treasury within the time of the hoard, otherwise ~~"

Pan Feng said this, his eyes were murderous, and he said: "Hugh blames General Ben for being welcome!" ”

"Get out~"

"Get out~"

"Get out~"

The Jizhou soldiers behind Pan Feng responded three times, and the momentum was terrifying.

Opposite the Jizhou army, Han Sui's eyes were uncertain, and he was not afraid of Pan Feng's Jizhou army, but at the moment, the two armies were mixed in the city, and the terrain in the city was narrow, which was not conducive to the galloping of the Xiliang cavalry. If it was something else, Han Sui would also be regarded as a generation of heroes, and he would endure it if he could.

But Pan Feng openly slandered the Liangzhou soldiers as barbarians, and threatened the Liangzhou soldiers to withdraw from the warehouse within a pillar of incense, but this practice was not only excessive, it was simply an insult to the entire Liangzhou army! Jizhou soldiers are so aggressive, if Han Sui has nothing to say, where is his prestige?

Han Sui smiled coldly and said in a low voice, "General Pan Feng, it's too much to say that, right?" ”

"Excessive?" Pan Feng said disdainfully, "General Ben is already very polite!" Don't fucking give a shame. ”

Han Sui's facial muscles twitched suddenly, and when he gritted his teeth and was about to turn his face, a rapid shout suddenly sounded in front of him: "Stop, stop all~~"

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

Pan Feng and Han Sui turned their heads at the same time, only to see Fu Zhi galloping towards him under the escort of dozens of cavalry soldiers, and beckoned from afar: "The two generals are calm and impatient, there is an urgent military situation below." ”

"Well, emergency military intelligence?"

Pan Feng and Han Sui frowned at the same time.

He said in a deep voice: "When I was able to explore the horse, I found a large number of scout rangers of the Ma Yue Army more than a hundred miles south of Meiji, and I thought that Ma Yue's army was probably nearby. ”

"The army of Ma Yue?"

Pan Feng's face changed, and then he remembered that although Meiji had broken through, Ma Yue's army had never appeared, and now the enemy was not the time to turn his face with the Liangzhou army, thinking of this, Pan Feng's face softened instantly, and he quietly raised his right arm and pressed down, and the soldiers behind him who opened their bows and horizontal swords put away their blades one after another.

Han Sui didn't care about himself, and also signaled the soldiers under his command to return their swords to the sheath, and the tense atmosphere was suddenly eased.

Han Sui said: "General Pan Feng, Mr. Fu Zhu, since Ma Yue's army is about to return to the division, and the enemy is present, it is better to put aside the dispute for the time being, and divide the two families to guard the four gates, and after repelling Ma Yue's army, each will distribute the grain, grass, baggage, and women in the city according to the merits of the two armies, how about it?" ”

Pan Feng said: "Okay, just follow the general's words." ”

Han Sui said: "In this case, General Ben will leave." ”

Pan Feng said: "I will not send it far." ”

When Han Sui walked away, he suggested to Pan Feng: "General, Meiji City is small, there is no need to leave all the troops in the city, you can divide the troops and station them outside the city, and the city will be a horn of each other." ”

"No need." Pan Feng flatly refused, "The soldiers came to Hetao from Jizhou, and the march lasted thousands of miles? After a few bloody battles, many tired, the soldiers are also flesh and blood, after all, they are not iron bones, and before the army of horse butchers arrives, let them have a good time in the city for a few days. ”

Frustrated and helpless, he said: "In this case, the general must send more rangers to scout the horses to prevent the Ma Yuejun from sneaking up." ”

"Sneak attack!" Pan Feng snorted and asked rhetorically, "Could it be that the military division thinks that tens of thousands of Jizhou soldiers are all mud puppets?" With the benefit of elite soldiers and the danger of the city, how can Ma Yuejun sneak attack? ”

Frustrated and persuaded bitterly: "General, Ma Yuesheng's surname is cunning, and you can't be careless." ”

"That's it." Pan Feng said angrily, "Since the military advisor is so cautious, you will lead fifty personal soldiers to personally patrol the night." ”

Frustrated and stunned: "This~~"

Pan Feng said coldly: "What, does the military advisor have to disobey the military order?" ”

Frustrated and sighed: "Grant~~ obey." ”

……

It was getting dark again.

Taking advantage of the cover of night, a cavalry of forty or fifty men appeared silently hundreds of paces east of Meiji City.

Although Fu Zhi tried his best to persuade Pan Feng to divide his troops to garrison outside the city, Pan Feng did not accept it at all, and in a fit of anger, he also sent Fu Zhi out to act as a probe! At this time, Meiji City was immersed in a silvery voice, whether it was the Liangzhou soldiers or the Jizhou soldiers, they were venting their young and vigorous vitality on the women's bodies.

Except for the few guards arranged on the city walls, there were no patrols outside the city at all.

A cavalryman dismounted and searched carefully for a while, and said to Xu Chu, who was leading the army: "General, I found it." ”

"Huh?"

Xu Chu's expression moved, he hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and sure enough, he found that there was a wooden stake inserted in the grass, because the night was dark, if he didn't get close and take a closer look, it was really not easy to find.

"Well, this is it, dig down for General Ben, quick!"

Forty or fifty horsemen turned over and dismounted, and dug around the stake with their iron pickaxes they had prepared, and in less than a moment, there was a hole open for three people to enter and exit in parallel! With a wave of his hand, three diminutive soldiers bent down into the cave with the tinder and disappeared into the dark corridor, while the rest of the soldiers turned over and scattered around the entrance.

……

Meiji West City.

Han Sui was suddenly woken up from his sleep, stretched out his hand and touched his face and body, which were full of sweat, and looked up at the sky outside the window, it was still dark, and he couldn't help but wonder.

It's not dawn yet, why is it so hot?

Han Sui stepped on the ground and almost didn't scream, why is the ground so hot? It's like burning your feet! Just when he was in doubt, a terrible roar of horses suddenly sounded outside the window.

"The lord is not good, Ma Yue's army has come back!"

"What!?" Han Sui was taken aback, hurriedly put on his riding boots, and didn't bother to explore why the ground had become so hot, and hurriedly walked out of the house and asked, "How many people are there?" ”

Ma Yu took a breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and thought that it was really hot this day, and replied while pondering: "I can't really see it in the dark, but the outside of the city is densely packed with torches, and I need 50,000 or 60,000 cavalry, to say the least." ”

"So much?" Han Sui gasped and said in a condensed voice, "Let's go, let's take a look." ”

Han Sui came to the west gate under the escort of the horse play and his own soldiers, and the group hurriedly climbed the city tower, and sure enough, under the dark night sky outside the city, there were dense torches, the horses were neighing, the sound was terrifying, and the endless army actually surrounded the Meiji City on all sides, and the water could not be passed.

……

Outside the city of Meiji.

Jia Xu said to Ma Yue: "Lord, you can start!" ”

"Hmm." Ma Yue nodded, and said in a deep voice, "Order, raise the fire!" ”

"The general has an order, raise the fire~~"

"The general has an order, raise the fire~~"

"The general has an order, raise the fire~~"

Ma Yue's military order quickly spread throughout the army, and the soldiers spread the hay and dry branches prepared in advance to the ground, and then poured fire oil, butter, and mutton fat oil, and then ignited them with flints.

On the city tower, Han Sui laughed and said, "What is the horse butcher doing?" Do you want to burn down Miki Castle? ”

Ma Yu also said: "According to the general, the horse butcher has nothing to do, this is just a trick." ”

Han Sui said: "This general doesn't care what kind of mystery the horse butcher plays, he ordered that the whole army should not go out of the city without authorization, so as not to be taken advantage of by the enemy, everything~~ wait until dawn." ”

……

Outside the city of Meiji.

Jia Xu stroked his willow whiskers under his chin and said to Ma Yue: "My lord, the Liangzhou army and the Jizhou army really hit the plan, and they didn't dare to go out of the city to meet the enemy, hehe~~"

Ma Yue gritted his teeth and said: "Liao Hua has a spirit in the sky, and the death period of the Liangzhou Army and the Jizhou Army has arrived!" This time, none of them want to escape, General Ben wants them all to be reduced to ashes~~ to give Liao Hua and all the brothers who died in battle a funeral! ”

Guo Tu's expression was awe-inspiring, and he was afraid that it was not only the 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers of the Liangzhou Army and the Jizhou Army who were buried for Liao Hua and the fallen soldiers, but also the 70,000 or 80,000 innocent women and old people in the city! Although Guo Tu was the initiator of this tragedy, when he thought about it at this time, he couldn't help but feel sorry.

"Just with these thousands of cavalry, you want to swallow tens of thousands of Jizhou elite soldiers? What a shame! ”

Ma Yue's voice fell, and a clear voice suddenly sounded from not far away, Ma Yue Huo Ran turned his head, only to see a slender and handsome middle-aged scribe coming suddenly.

Ma Yue asked, "Jutu, who is this?" ”

Ju Tu replied: "Lord, when the last general led the scout team to patrol the night, he encountered a small group of enemy troops in Chengxiao, and finally annihilated the enemy army after a fierce battle. ”

Ma Yue shouted, "Who are you? ”

The man flicked his sleeves and replied without being arrogant or humble: "If you don't change your surname or change your name when you sit down, Guangping is frustrated." ”

"Frustrated?" Ma Yue frowned and pondered for a moment, but finally had no impression, and asked, "Why did Fang just say something crazy?" ”

Frustratedly, he said, "You are the one who speaks wildly. ”

"Really?" Ma Yue said coldly, "Soon you will know that General Ben did not speak wildly!" ”

"Hush." Fu Zhi sneered, "Just with this little fire, you want to burn the tens of thousands of troops in the city to ashes? Amusing. ”

Jia Xu smiled and said: "You might as well reveal that Mr. Fu Zhu knows, our army is not only arson outside the city, when the sky is just dusk, my lord has been sent to sneak into the city from the tunnel dug in advance to set fire, I think the defenders in the city should have found out at this time, however, the defenders in the city are likely not to take it seriously, hahaha~~"

Ma Yue said coldly: "Even if they take it seriously, it's too late to put out the fire!" ”

……

Meiji Castle Head.

"General, no~~ it's not good." In the sound of hurried footsteps, Geng Wu hurriedly climbed the city tower and said quickly, "Fire, fire, fire in the city!" ”

"!" Pan Feng scolded, "Although there are many wooden houses and grass sheds in Meiji City, they are all new trees and grass, how can they catch fire?" ”

"It's really on fire." Geng Wu hurriedly said, "General, please see." ”

Pan Feng looked in the direction of Geng Wu's finger, and sure enough, he saw several places in the city that were on fire, and there was faint smoke rising into the sky, many soldiers and women ran out of the house naked, standing on the street and shouting, and there were more soldiers around the side shouting, the situation was extremely chaotic.

Pan Feng said angrily: "Then what are you doing in a daze, why don't you go and put out the fire!" ”

"Uh~~ Obey."

Geng Wu agreed and hurried away again.

There was a fire in the city, Pan Feng didn't take it to heart, after all, even if there were a few fires, the fire would be difficult to spread, what he was worried about was Ma Yuejun outside the city, I don't know what tricks he would play, Pan Feng looked back at the outside of the city, and found that the burning circle of fire had gradually been extinguished.

At the other end of Meiji City, Han Sui also did not take the fire in the city to heart.

The horse played with his finger outside the city and laughed: "Look, my lord, the fire is out, hehe." ”

"That's not right." Han Sui shook his head and said, "The fire hasn't been extinguished yet, it's still burning." ”

"Oh?" Ma Play was stunned when he heard this, and after a closer look, he found that there was indeed a faint fire shining, and in less than a moment, the fire became more and more red and bright, and became clear and arguable. ”

"It seems that in order to burn this fire, the horse butcher really took a lot of pains," Han Sui said in a condensed voice, "General Ben wants to see what tricks the horse butcher can play?" ”

……

Outside the city of Meiji.

Jia Xu smiled slightly, and said to Frustration: "Sir, do you know what you are stepping on?" ”

Frustrated and said coldly: "I don't know." ”

Jia Xu said: "It's not a secret, this thing is called charcoal, which is not easy to burn, but once ignited, the fire is difficult to extinguish until it turns to ashes." ”

Frustrated, his face changed, and Huo Ran said: "Say so~~"

Jia Xu's expression was cold, his eyes showed a murderous aura, and he said in a deep voice: "Mr. guessed correctly, when repairing Meiji City, our army spread a thick layer of charcoal inside and outside the city, and reserved an arson passage underneath, so that the city was on fire first, and when the fire burned from the ground to the surface, the city was set on fire again, and when the defenders in the city found that the situation was wrong, they had fallen into a desperate situation of internal and external difficulties. ”

Fu Zhu said disapprerovingly: "What if the defenders are desperate to break through? ”

Jia Xu said: "If the defenders break through desperately, maybe some of the men and horses can be highlighted, but ~~ The defenders will not break through in the next order!" ”

"Why?"

"Because people have a fluke mentality, as long as a small number of people try to break through and die, the rest of the people will not continue to try, but would rather stay on top of the castle tower! It is precisely because of the existence of the city tower that the defenders in the city will lose the last chance to escape in the wait-and-see and hesitation, and wait until the coal is fully burned and the fire is completely spread, it is the iron man~~ I am afraid that it will have to turn into gold juice, not to mention people? ”

"What a vicious trick!" "But don't you know that in this way, along with the 80,000 innocent people in the city, will also be reduced to ashes, aren't you afraid that this move will cause peace and curse?" ”

"Damnation?" Ma Yue snorted coldly, pointed his finger at the sky very arrogantly, and said, "If the heavens can punish them, the people will not be displaced, and there will be no such troubled times in the world!" ”

"This~~"

He was stunned when he heard this, this was the first time he had heard such a rebellious remark, and he didn't know how to refute it for a while.

……

Meiji East City.

Geng Wu rushed up to the city tower in a panic and said to Pan Feng: "General~~ General, the big thing is not good." ”

Pan Feng frowned and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Geng Wu said: "The fire in the city can't be extinguished, and ~~ the more it burns, the more fierce it gets!" ”

"What?" Pan Feng said in a deep voice, "There is such a thing! ”

"General, let's go and see."

"Okay, take General Ben to take a look."

……

Meiji West City.

Han Sui Huo Ran turned around and saw that instead of extinguishing the fire in the city, it was burning more and more intensely, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "What's going on?" ”

Liang Xing hurriedly said: "The last general doesn't know, this fire seems to have burned up from the ground, and it can't be extinguished no matter how you pour it!" A bag of water was poured down, and it turned into water vapor after two clicks, and after a while, the place that had just been poured out still burst into red flames, which was really a fucking evil door. ”

"It's broken!" When Han Sui was in shock, the horse behind him shouted again, "Lord, look." ”

"What's wrong again?" Han Sui turned around impatiently, and suddenly gasped as far as his eyes could see, and said in a mouthful of air, "How can this be~~?" ”

In this way, the fire outside the city has become more and more rapid, and even red flames have risen from the ground, straight to the sky, faintly there is thick smoke coming out of the fire, the wind is blowing very strongly, the wind is helping the fire, the flames are getting higher and higher, and all of a sudden, the faint circle of fire has burned into a sea of fire.

On the city tower a hundred steps away, Han Sui could faintly feel the heat wave sent by the wind.

"Damn, something isn't right! According to this posture, it may really burn into the city. Han Sui wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Ma Yu, "Ma Wan, you take a few people down the rope to see, how did this fire burn?" There is not even a single grass outside the city, how the hell did it burn!? ”

"The last will obey."

The horse said yes and went looking for the rope.

On the other hand, Liang Xing asked anxiously: "Lord, what about the fire in the city?" ”

"Ah, inside the city?" Han Sui patted his forehead anxiously, and said with fire, "Find more people, find more water, and control the fire first." ”

"Uh~~ Obey."

Liang Xing agreed and hurried away again.

Ma Play found a rope, led a few strong soldiers down the rope to the outside of the city, and walked forward not to a few dozen steps before being forced back by the fierce fire and choking smoke, Ma Play stood at the base of the city wall and raised his head and shouted hoarsely to Han Sui: "Lord, the fire is very fierce, and the brothers can't get close at all." ”

Han Sui said helplessly: "In this case, you guys come up first, and wait until dawn." ”

……

When the east finally showed a hint of fish's belly white, the darkness finally began to subside.

A new day is coming again, but for many, it will be the last day of their lives!

Frustrated Zhi took a deep breath, the air was filled with a suffocating scorching heat, although a hundred steps away, he could still clearly feel the scorching heat, you can imagine how hot it must be in Meiji City now! Thinking that the more than 20,000 Jizhou elite soldiers in the city were about to turn into ashes, his frustrated eyes suddenly dimmed.

"Quack~~ Boom!"

The closed gate of Meiji City suddenly opened, and a group of Liangzhou cavalry poured out of the city gate, but they rode their horses forward less than ten steps, and the mounts under their crotches fell down with a wail, and the cavalry on horseback fell to the red ground one after another, and the flames that flickered up and swallowed up these Xiliang cavalry and their horses in an instant.

First, the robes and hair on the cavalrymen's bodies burned, and the soldiers and horses who had not yet breathed were constantly rolling and struggling in the sea of fire, and from time to time let out bursts of terrible howls, which were terrifying to hear, and in less than a moment, the air began to waft with the smell of roasted meat.

In less than a meal, dozens of Xiliang cavalry and cavalry were reduced to ashes, only the iron armor on the soldiers' bodies was burned red, but they still maintained their original shape.

There was a sound of inhalation from the upper floor of Meiji Castle, and all the soldiers were frightened by this terrible scene! At this moment, the entire Meiji City has already burned into a city of flames! The fire in the city, which could not be extinguished, had completely spread, igniting the wooden houses and straw huts in the city.

Everyone was forced to gather in a narrow area within the city wall, only this small area, the fire has not yet spread, and it can be accommodated for the time being, but it will not be long before the rapid spread of the fire will burn to the root of the city wall, so the soldiers go crazy and squeeze up the tower, and from time to time some unlucky soldiers are squeezed down from the tower, either breaking their arms or breaking their legs.

The situation is already chaotic, and now even Han Sui and Pan Feng are powerless to return to the sky.

Time is constantly passing, the spread of the "earth fire" finally burned to the bottom of the city wall, the charcoal at the bottom of the city wall also burned, looking from afar, the bottom of the whole city is like a red soldering iron, extremely spectacular! But only the Liangzhou soldiers and Jizhou soldiers who were crowded on the city wall knew that it was purgatory at all!

"Boom~~"

Because of the scorching heat, coupled with the fact that the city wall was crowded with people, a section of the city wall that was not rammed enough could no longer withstand the weight and collapsed, and in the scorching smoke and dust scattered, the soldiers who crowded the city head were instantly killed in the flames.
