Dou Gui heard a familiar sound, the sound was the unique impact sound of the stone thrower when it was launched, and this sound was also heard clearly through a thick city wall, but Dou Gui was very puzzled, where did the stone thrower come from in the city, if there was a stone thrower in the city, why didn't they use it for so long?

Dou Gui is not a stupid person, he thought of the role of the stone thrower long before the war, in order to ensure that he has enough advantages, he also specially sent people to Ningcheng to check the general, the stone thrower is not a small thing, as long as there is, it can't hide from the eyes of secret agents. The absence of a stone thrower in Ning City was something he had confirmed.

However, the sound was clearly the sound of the stone thrower being fired.

Dou Gui raised his head and looked at the city through the gap in the overlapping shields, he didn't see the huge figure of the stone thrower, but he saw a fire shadow flying out of the city, he looked along the whirring fire pot for a while, and the great horror was like a big hand, tightly grabbing his heart.

"Withdraw—" Dou Gui exerted all his strength and shouted wildly. He already knew from the trajectory of the oil tanks that the target of these oil tanks was the distance between the stone thrower and Feng Yuan behind him, and that large area was now full of his men, all of whom rushed forward desperately, hoping to open the city gate and rush into the city to plunder.

Originally, Dou Gui also had such thoughts, but now, he only had one thought left: run!

The Dou family, who was all focused on protecting his safety, didn't react for a while, this was about to attack the city, why did he suddenly retreat? However, they were accustomed to listening to orders, and they didn't ask why, as soon as they heard Dou Gui's heart-rending shout, they immediately began to change their formation, from a cone-shaped attack formation to a half-moon formation when retreating, protecting Dou Gui to attack in the opposite direction.

Xia Yu at the head of the city discovered Dou Gui's move at the first time, and with an order, the strong crossbow that had been prepared immediately began to fire, passing through the gaps exposed by the shield array, shooting those Dou family tribes, and damaging their morale, and at the same time ordering Liu Xiu and others to attack.

The opportunity was fleeting, Dou Gui had already discovered the danger, and it would be difficult to keep him if he didn't stop him before he withdrew from Feng Yuan. Those powerful Dou family tribes have a great chance to escort him out of this trap that has been carefully arranged for a long time.

The city gate quietly opened a crack, Liu Xiu, Zhang Fei and others quietly killed, and the city gate closed behind them.

Dou Gui didn't notice this, all his mind was attracted by the fire flying in the air, and his heart couldn't help sinking, he knew that he had been fooled, Xia Yu also had a stone thrower, whether he had it before, or just made it, in short, he must have a stone thrower, although the number is not very large, but these stone throwers replaced the heavy stones with bundles of lit oil cans at the beginning, the purpose was not to kill people, but to set fire, and threw hundreds of oil cans out of the city in one go, The fire caused by these canisters was enough to scare the unprepared besieging troops and stop the reinforcements of the winds and kill themselves.

If he didn't make it through the area early, he could be hacked, trampled to death, or burned to death by his disorganized men, if not killed by the city's crossbows.

Wealth and danger seeking, he dared to come to attack the city, of course, he was mentally prepared, but it does not mean that he has no luck in his heart, once the danger really comes to his head, he will still panic, he will still be nervous, or will be desperate to survive.

"Let's go! Come on! Dou Guiyi shouted repeatedly, his voice had been deformed due to excessive nervousness, and it was as sharp as a castrated eunuch.

"Whoosh-"

"Whoosh-"

One by one, the burning oil canisters scattered in the air, turned into a cloud of fire, and poured down on the heads of the Huns who were dreaming of entering the city and plundering the city, most of them held shields to block the rain of arrows in the sky, and did not notice the strangeness above their heads, until the oil cans smashed on their bodies or shields, and the hot flames licked their skins and squeaked, they found themselves in extreme danger, the first instinctive reaction was to fight the fire on their bodies, and the second reaction was to look up and look around, When they found that there were fires everywhere and their companions who were screaming from the fire, they finally understood that it was impossible to plunder the three days, and whether they could escape back alive was the most important thing in front of them.

Escaping, at this moment is definitely not an easy task, the Huns who were burned and dizzy did not care about the direction at all, ran around, bumped into each other, and slashed and killed with knives in order to seize a non-existent way of life, even if someone could stand up and guide everyone in the right direction, his shouts were drowned in the screams, and they could not be heard at all.

More than 2,000 people rushed like headless flies, crying, screaming, and scolding mixed together, and the distance of fifty steps outside Feng Yuan burned into a sea of fire, and the edge burned to the stone throwing machine that had just stopped firing, and the people who were riding the stone throwing machine saw the more and more fierce fire and the oil cans that kept flying out of the city, and after a moment of panic, they all threw down everything in their hands and turned around and ran wildly.

The Xianbei people in charge of supervising the war were also stupid, they opened their mouths, looked at the tragic situation in front of them, and forgot to step forward to intercept the fleeing people. Even the crack wind who was standing in the command of the formation stood up in shock, his chin almost fell on the surface of his feet, he looked at the Dou Gui Department who was originally imposing, but now he collapsed without a fight, his eyes widened, but he couldn't say a word.

Dou Gui was under the escort of Dou Hu and others, and just escaped from Feng Yuan, he found an extremely bad situation, and his eyes were full of rampage soldiers, no one cared whether he was the young master of the Dou family, nor did he care that he was the current main general of the army, as long as he saw someone blocking the road in front of him, he raised his knife and cut it, and some people simply rushed towards the city wall in order to escape the fire. Although there were extremely vicious halberds in Feng Yuan, no matter how ruthless the halberd warriors were, they were not as cruel as the fire and the thousands of burned companions, and they launched a more fierce charge at Feng Yuan under the threat of fire, but this time it was not for the siege of the city, but for the escape.

Dou Gui hit this countercurrent head-on, and was almost washed out of his ground, thanks to the fact that the Dou family is quite experienced in dealing with such things, without saying a word, he will cut it when he lifts it, and he will work in a group of five, and the finished glyph is blocked in front of Dou Gui, firmly blocking those crazy soldiers.

The Huns who fled from the Northern Xiongnu with Dou Gui did not have such good equipment as the Dou family's troops, nor did they have such good martial arts, and now they were in chaos, not to mention opponents, after being cut down more than a dozen people one after another, they instinctively avoided this group of bloody and cruel people, as for whether they were enemies or companions, no one cared about these now.

However, it is not so easy to break through these more than 50 steps and return to one's own formation. Dou Gui looked at the sea of fire in front of him and wanted to cry without tears. Dou Hu didn't have time to grieve, he looked around, immediately pointed to the city wall, and shouted loudly: "Retreat under the city wall and bypass the fire area." ”

"Whoa!" The Dou family responded loudly, escorting Dou Gui to turn around and run towards the city wall. Armed with shields to shield them from the stones and arrows that had been thrown from their heads, they ran toward the nearest gate. There is a hole in the gate, and there must be no fire there, so that you can take refuge for a while.

Xia Yu looked at Dou Gui deadly, where Dou Gui ran, he commanded the crossbowmen to shoot where, the dense rain of arrows made the Dou family members cry bitterly, and they didn't even have a chance to look up, so they could only hold the shield, gritted their teeth and ran wildly, from time to time someone was shot by the feather arrow through the gap in the shield, and fell down with a muffled hum.

Although Dou Gui was shocked, he still had a trace of reason, knowing that he couldn't mess up at this time, and if he was in chaos, there would be no hope of escape. He looked at the city gate in front of him, felt extra cordial, and couldn't help but shout: "Quick, get to the city gate......

His shout of joy was interrupted by the sudden appearance of his back in front of him, and the two Dou family members who were walking in front of him suddenly stopped, and Dou Gui, who didn't have time to react, bumped into his head, his nose was sore, and he scolded angrily: "Hurry up, why did you stop?" ”

"Because I'm waiting for you." An eerie voice sounded in front of him, Dou Gui rubbed his nose and looked up, and the two strong bodies slowly fell to the side, revealing a samurai holding a double halberd and wearing iron armor all over. Dou Gui's eyes tightened, and he felt very familiar, this person was actually wearing Xuanjia, which was only available to the elite of the Han army. In an instant, he thought that he had returned to Jingshi, surrounded by the soldiers of the Northern Army. The next moment, he was cold, terrified, and instinctively retreated backwards
