The effect of the flame attack was very good, but it also caused unexpected trouble for the Wei army, and the fire that was blown by the wind into the nearby streets quickly burst into flames, blocking the road to the other two large warehouses. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

In desperation, Yang Meng led the 40,000-strong soldiers to kill the city governor, and occupied the entire mansion with only slight resistance.

Yang Meng didn't stop doing anything, and ordered the soldiers to set a fire in the mansion of the Zhishuo.

Just as the fire was rising, a north wind suddenly began in the sky, and a dry north wind from the desert added fuel to the fire.

Soon after, the two fires became uncontrollable.

At this time, Yang Meng led his nearly 6,000 iron horsemen to retreat along the original road to the vicinity of the city gate in embarrassment.

"General, the fire is out of control! Why don't you retreat! Xu Tie suggested.

Xu Huang glanced at the monstrous fire in front of him that was dancing with the wind, and said with a wry smile: "It seems that we can't do it if we don't want to!" The order goes down, and the armies immediately withdraw!! ”

"No!"

After a few moments, tens of thousands of horsemen withdrew from the city.

At this time, many Roman soldiers were trying to stop the spread of the fire, but it was clear that they were beyond their means. Although the Wei army retreated, Yusuf did not feel relaxed at all.

Xu Huang led tens of thousands of troops to retreat to the wilderness outside the city, paused, turned his head to look back, and saw that the entire city was struggling painfully in the flames, and the monstrous flames were like a demon king with teeth and claws, which made people shudder.

Xu Huang muttered, "It seems that our task can be completed!" ”

Yang Meng on the side couldn't help but stumble: "Be good! This fire is really fierce!! ”

Duan Gang smiled: "It's not that you did a good job!" ”

Hahaha! Yang Meng laughed triumphantly.

Tens of thousands of Wei soldiers rode in the wilderness to watch the good show for more than two hours, and at this time, the fire not only did not weaken in the slightest but intensified, and it seems that the other two warehouses also caught fire!

It was not convenient for the Wei army to stay here for a long time, so they headed for the northern desert.

In the middle of the night that day, Caracalla, who was far away in Qinxifeng, suddenly woke up from his dream, touched the cold sweat on his forehead, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Caracalla felt a faint red light flickering outside the window, and couldn't help but be curious, so he put on his robe and walked out of the dormitory, looking to the west, and saw that the sky in the distance to the west was fiery red, as if it were burning.

Caracalla frowned and muttered, "What's going on?" It looks like it's Dura Europos over there!? ”

Surprised, "Could it be!?" ”

Then he shook his head and frowned: "Probably not!" How is that possible? ”

Caracalla was no longer sleepy, so he simply read under the oil lamp.

Just as it was dawn, General Schneider burst in.

Caracalla couldn't help but be startled, and said unhappily: "Being so anxious is really losing the identity of the general!" ”

Schneider said urgently: "Your Majesty, it's not good! Dura Europos! "I didn't catch my breath and choked.

Caracalla's heart couldn't help but jump, and he suddenly got up and asked urgently, "What's wrong with Dura Europos?" ”

Schneider swallowed, "Yesterday Dura Europos was raided by the Wei army's iron cavalry!" Dura Europos is in ruins! ”

"What about the grain and grass?" Caracalla asked with a pale face.

Schneider shook his head, "It's all over!" ”

Karakala only felt the world spinning for a while, and the maids around him hurriedly came up to help. Caracalla relied on the maid to stabilize his body, and said in his heart: "Four million loads of grain and grass!" Four million loads of grain and grass! ”

A flush suddenly appeared on his face, "How did Yusuf do it!" He's damned!! ”

Schneider said: "Your Majesty, now that the grain and grass have been destroyed, our army can no longer advance east!" The top priority now is to stabilize the existing line of defense and solve the food problem at the same time! ”

Caracalla calmed down, thought for a moment, and decisively ordered: "Order all armies to shrink their defensive lines!" At the same time, order a force to immediately retreat to the vicinity of Dura Europos and establish a supporting fortress! Order the Thirteen Provinces of the East to raise grain and grass again! ”

"Yes!" Schneider said yes and prepared to retreat.

"Wait!" Caracalla stopped him suddenly.

"Your Majesty, what else do you command?"

Caracalla walked up to Schneider and whispered, "You arrange it for me, I want to meet with Zhao Yun, the general of the Wei army!" ”

Schneider was stunned, "Your Majesty, why is this?" ”

Caracalla said unhappily: "If you are told to go, you will go, don't ask more!" ”

Seeing that Caracalla was angry, Schneider hurriedly agreed.

"Your Majesty, if nothing else, the last general will retire!"

Caracalla asked, "Has Karen Sa confessed his sin?" ”

Karen Sa was captured by the generals who betrayed him when the city was broken.

"Not yet!"

Caracalla said indifferently: "Whether he pleads guilty or not, this time he will be beheaded in the main square when he goes back!" ”

"Yes! Your Majesty, for the generals under Karen Sa? ”

Karakala pondered, "We were able to successfully capture this Qinxifeng City, and it was thanks to them!" No penalty! But they must be stripped of their military rights! Let them live the rest of their lives in Rome in peace! ”

Schneider understood what Caracalla meant, and said yes.

"That's it! It's all right, you go down! ”

Schneider answered and exited the backroom.

At about the same time, Cao Cao also received the relevant flying pigeon message. Cao Cao finally let go of the big stone in his heart, and said to Xu Chu with a smile: "This battle should come to an end!" ”

Seeing Xu Chu's puzzled expression, he explained: "Gongming raided the enemy's grain hoarding land yesterday and burned four million loads of grain and grass!" Hehe, the Romans just don't want a truce and have to stop! ”

Xu Chu showed an excited expression, "Your Majesty, so we can go home?!" ”

Cao Cao nodded and said with emotion: "Yes! It's time to go home! This time it's been a long time! I don't know what's going on in the country? ”

Later that day, Cao Cao received a flying pigeon message from Zhao Yun, which roughly meant that the Romans wanted a truce between the two countries!

Cao Cao pressed the book on the desk, smiled and said to the generals in the hall: "The Romans ask for a call to war!" ”

The generals smiled proudly.

Zhang Liao clenched his fists and asked, "Your Majesty, I wonder when the envoy of the Romans will come?" ”

Cao Cao smiled and said, "They asked the two sides to send envoys to each other to negotiate in front of Qingshi Ridge!" ”

Ma Chao snorted coldly: "The general of the defeated army still dares to make a request!" ”

Zhang Liao frowned and said: "Although the Romans' grain and grass have suffered heavy losses, this place is not far from their logistics base, and it can be replenished in a short time!" However, the problem of grain and grass in our army is still severe, and the grain and grass transferred from the Central Plains can be described as a drop in the bucket! Therefore, our army does not have any advantage at all now! ”

Cao Cao nodded, "What Wen Yuan said is extremely true! What's more, our army has fought viciously repeatedly, and the casualties are extremely heavy, so we have saved up to recuperate! Wen Yuan, who do you think is the most suitable envoy for peace talks? ”

Zhang Liao pondered: "It is said that Mr. Kong Ming and Mr. Zhong Da are the most suitable, but one of them is on the northern line and the other is in the Western Regions, so they can't arrive in a short time!" It's better to let Zilong go! Zilong is both wise and brave, and he is up to the task! ”

Cao Cao nodded thoughtfully, "It's okay!" Anyway, Zilong is on the front line now! However, Zilong must be told to pay attention to his own safety! ”

That night, Zhao Yun, who was in front of Qingshi Ridge, received Cao Cao's order, and Zhao Yun immediately sent someone to inform the Roman envoy, and the Roman envoy immediately returned.

That evening, the two sides set the venue and date for the talks. The place was by the creek between the two positions in front of the bluestone ridge, and the time was tomorrow at noon, and the Romans were represented by the great general Schneider.

Early the next morning, the two sides lined up in the wilderness in front of the bluestone ridge, and the atmosphere was very solemn, and there was a tendency to break out.

At noon, 300 cavalry on each side galloped out of their own formations with their respective commanders in their arms, and headed for the meeting place in the middle. By this time there were already people waiting at the place of the meeting, where two stools were set up opposite each other, and between the stools was a map of Assyria.

The two sides came to the negotiation site and looked at each other for a moment, and the atmosphere seemed a little tense.

Zhao Yun and Schneider saluted each other and sat down. The three hundred soldiers brought by both sides stood behind their respective generals and stared at each other.

Schneider first said, "You Wei people must give us back Ekbatana and Susa!" This is our territory! "A menacing look.

Zhao Yun smiled slightly, and said indifferently: "This is not your territory!" ”

Schneider snorted coldly, "Your Excellency means to forcibly occupy Ekbatana and Susa?!" ”

Zhao Yun smiled and said, "Say whatever you want!" ”

With a straight look, he said categorically: "I'm just telling you a fact, it is impossible for our army to give up these two places at such a great cost!" ”

Schneider said in a deep voice: "Then we will solve it by force!" ”

Zhao Yun laughed, glanced at Schneider, who was frowning slightly, and said in a good manner: "Your Excellency General, who do you think of us?" Is it the rest that you have destroyed, or is it a client state like the Bosphorus? ”

The tone sank, "Your Excellency, you have to make it clear that the overall strength of my Great Wei Empire is not under your Roman Empire, but the military strength"

Zhao Yun paused and said proudly: "You Rome is not the opponent of our Great Wei Empire!" ”

Schneider was furious, and Huo Ran rose, "General Wei, you are insulting me!" ”

Zhao Yun said indifferently: "You know in your own heart whether what I said is the truth or not!" During this period of time, our two armies have been fighting fiercely, and your Rome has almost exhausted its elite, and the main force of our army is basically the garrison army and the reserve army! ”

Zhao Yun's words are a bit tricky, but they are impossible to refute.

Schneider was so angry that he had nothing to say.

Zhao Yun smiled and said, "Your Excellency General, don't be so excited!" Let's sit down and talk! (To be continued.) )
