"Kill!"

In the face of such a rabble, Zhao Feng didn't bother to make any more arrangements, so he said these two words, and the partial general Kou Feng and the captain Zhang Wei of the army began to command the Wudang Flying Army and the Wuqian Flying Army, and these two strong forces both launched, like two sharp arrows cutting through the enemy's formation. Everywhere the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info went, there was a bloody storm, and all that flew around were the stumps and broken arms of the Cham people who were chopped off by them.

"Why are these Han barbarians so powerful?" Seeing that his own warriors were like sheep facing tigers and wolves, Ruan Dan's eyes almost didn't pop out. Nearly 100,000 Cham troops, Ruan Fugui led an army of 60,000 to attack Cangwu, and the rest of the Xiangshan City still has more than 20,000 defenders. But what he never expected was that the combat strength of his army was pitifully weak compared to the other party, and the situation in the field was completely one-sided, and the Zhan people who were wantonly tortured and killed could hardly organize any effective resistance.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, it's not good, it's not good, the Han people in the city are in turmoil, and they have occupied Xiangshan City!" Just when Ruan Dan was in a hurry, another news of a blow came, Ruan Dan almost fainted when he heard this, but he still barely cheered up and asked: "Didn't I still have garrisons in the city, how could I let the Han occupy it so easily?" ”

"I don't know where the Han barbarians came from, there are thousands of people, and they have climbed into the city from the back mountain. The Han people in the city rebelled with them, and the defenders couldn't resist it, so we were the only ones who ran in! The man said with a sad face.

"Back Mountain?" Ruan Dan really fainted this time. Xiangshan City is built on the mountain, and the back mountain constitutes a natural barrier to the city. But Ruan Dan trusted this barrier too much, and he didn't send anyone to garrison it at all. As a result, after Zhao Feng confirmed that there were no defenders there, he immediately sent an elite force of 2,000 people to attack and kill him. These Wudang Flying Army was born in the mountains, and they crossed the mountains and mountains like walking on flat ground, and this time they were used to sneak attack the Xiangshan City garrisoned by the rabble, which was simply overkill, Ruan Dan introduced a bun of soil and accepted these rabble, how could he compete with this big man's elite soldiers? In addition, the Han people in the city were oppressed, and now when they saw the Han army coming, they responded immediately, and it didn't take long for the city to be occupied.

At this time, Ruan Dan woke up slowly, seeing that the field battle in the field could not take advantage, and his own back road was cut off again, and he was helpless. Fortunately, he still has a little bit of brains, and he knows that if he doesn't make a decision at the right time, I'm afraid he will really have to explain everything here. After gritting his teeth, Ruan Dan ordered: "Retreat with me to Jiaozhi and wait for the arrival of my father's reinforcements!" At that moment, he led the pro-guard army to withdraw to Jiaozhi, and as soon as the commander fled, the Zhan army was suddenly collapsed, and under the killing of the Wuqian Fei Army and the Wudang Fei Army, there were heavy casualties. It was not until the evening when the fighting stopped, and as soon as the battlefield was cleaned, he found that his losses were really minimal, and the 20,000 Cham people had basically been annihilated or captured, and it was estimated that there would be no more than 3,000 people who fled to Jiaozhi with Ruan Dan.

"After winning the first battle, I believe that Ruan Phuc Gui will definitely return to the army in Xiangshan. General, why don't we lead the army to ambush on the road that must be passed, wait for it to return to the army, and wipe it out? After expressing his disdain for the combat effectiveness of the Cham army, Zhang Wei also admonished. I didn't want Zhao Feng to smile slightly, but he said in an astonishing voice: "Why bother so much!" He immediately instructed Zhang Wei and Kou Feng to act like this, and the two hurriedly followed their own plans.

"What, Elephant Mountain has been breached?" Under Cangwu City, Ruan Fugui was also surprised to learn that Xiangshan had been breached, and his son had retreated to Jiaozhi. Xiangshan is his foundation, if it is broken like this, then if he wants to realize his dream of becoming king, then there is little hope. After hearing the news, Ruan Fugui was also so anxious that he couldn't care about anything else, and hurriedly led the more than 50,000 horses on his hand to return to the army to rescue. At the same time, Wu Ju in Cangwu City also received a military order sent by Zhao Feng, asking him to assemble the Jiaozhou army as soon as possible and prepare to attack Ruan Fugui on both sides.

"Very good, Captain Feng, you go and gather the men. Remember, General Zhao said that he is going to use fire to deal with Nguyen Phuc Gui, don't follow too closely, be careful that you are also burned! Wu Ju finally admonished, Feng Xi naturally cared carefully when he heard this, and then led the army to pursue without mentioning it.

Jiaozhou is located in Lingnan, the climate is hot and the sea is located, and it is rarely visited since ancient times, so the original forest vegetation coverage rate is extremely high. On the road from Cangwu to Yulin, almost all sides of the road are covered with grass and trees. In addition, it was the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, the season of lush vegetation, Zhao Feng saw such favorable conditions, and he was simply sorry for himself without using fire.

After a day's rapid march, the Cham army encamped at the foot of a mountain in Bushan County, Yulin territory, and rested that night. Zhao Feng, who had already received the news from the Malay Visitor, personally led people to meet this group of Zhan troops.

"The general didn't expect it badly, this Ruan Fugui really didn't know the art of war, the grass and trees here were lush, and these Cham troops actually camped in the grass. Just one fire is enough to extinguish them! On the top of the mountain, Kou Feng pointed to the camp of the Cham army under the mountain, and also talked eloquently. Behind him, not only Zhao Feng, but even Liu Feng's group of boys followed. Naturally, you can't go to the battlefield. Guan Xing and Zhang Bao were both a little excited when they heard this, only Liu Feng frowned slightly, and finally said cautiously: "General Zhao, if it is a fire attack, I am afraid that there will be no more than a few of these tens of thousands of Zhan people." Isn't that too cruel? ”

"Huh?" Zhao Feng was a little surprised when he heard this, looking at Liu Feng with a sincere face in front of him, Zhao Feng suddenly understood: this kid followed Zhang Zhao and Sun Qian all day long to learn poetry and book etiquette, but he was afraid that this bloody killing was not what he wanted to see. But now that there is such a thing as a war, I am afraid that it will not work if it is not cruel. In order to solve these little Vietnamese cubs once and for all, Zhao Feng is willing to even give up his life.

"On the battlefield, I don't care about that. When these Cham people killed our Han people, did they consider benevolence, righteousness and morality? Liu Feng is the son of the world, and Zhao Feng is not too harsh, so he has to say a few words. Liu Feng was silent when he heard this, and at this time, Zhang Wei had already sent someone to carry the sulfur and other fire-starting things that accompanied the army, and went to prepare to set fire to the mountain. And Zhao Feng and the others were on a bare mountain peak far away from them, and there was no risk of being ignited.

In a short time, there were one or two small red dots in the dark and silent woods ahead, and then the red dots became more and more numerous and larger, and finally caused the whole forest to burn. In the raging fire, those figures fleeing in all directions can be vaguely seen; Through the sound of the burning grass and trees, the screams of the Cham people could still be heard. Even in the air, you can smell a hint of barbecue. Of course, at this time, basically no one will have an appetite.

A fire burned all night, and when the fire stopped in the early morning and the smoke cleared, Rao is Zhao Feng had been on the battlefield for a long time, and he also gasped: the vast Cham camp was burned into a white ground, and there were crumpled corpses of the Cham people everywhere, looking like monkeys. Closer, in the air?
