Chapter 817: The fire burned the face
When Ah Gu slept in a daze, he suddenly heard a big mess outside, which made him jump up from the bed at once, and it happened that someone broke in in a panic and shouted: "Boss, something is wrong, someone outside is attacking us!" ”
Hearing the report of the tribesmen, Aguta was also frightened, and immediately put on his clothes and came to the outside of the tent, only to see that the east side of the tribe was already full of flames, and many tents were also ignited by the fire, many people were wailing and screaming in the flames, and outside the border of the flames, there were many clansmen who were resisting the rush of a team of men and horses.
Seeing this situation, Ah Guta also roared, and immediately shouted loudly to calm down the people around him, and then he organized people to kill and move forward, although the fire is burning very much by the wind, but the most important thing now is not to put out the fire, but to kill the people who attacked them, otherwise if they are killed by the other party into the tribe, I am afraid that it will cause greater panic, and then the entire tribe will be in danger.
"Boom Boom~" Just when Ah Guda led the reinforcements and was about to rush to the area of battle, he suddenly heard a violent explosion in front of him, hearing this sound, Ah Guda couldn't help but stiffen all over, and an unspeakable fear surged uncontrollably in his heart, because the last time he heard this sound, it was when he was injured in the lower body, this pain was with him all the time, and every time he thought about it, he felt pain into the bone marrow.
"Firearms!" Ah Gu froze for a moment, and finally managed to squeeze out two words from between his teeth, and his eyes shot endless hatred and anger.
Ah Guta is now almost certain that the Song people who attacked them this time must have come for their Wanyan Department, because the Great Song Dynasty has very strict control over firearms, and only the regular army of the Great Song Dynasty can equip them, and the regular army of the Great Song Dynasty will definitely not come to rob them for no reason, these poor Jurchens, the only possibility is that they are assigned by the Great Song court. In addition, there were other Jurchen tribes that attacked the Song fleet before. and the previous pretended to retreat, these are all to confuse him, and this time he killed a horse pistol to kill their subordinates.
"Well, no, why is the power of the firearm so small this time?" At this moment, Aguda suddenly noticed something strange. That is, the firearms that exploded this time were not very powerful, far from being comparable to the last time they injured him. Of course, Ah Guda didn't know that there were many kinds of firearms, and the last time he was injured was a ballista shell, but this time the other party used a grenade, and the difference between a head alone was nearly ten times, and the power was naturally not the same.
But even a grenade was enough to scare the Jurchens, especially now that it was night. When the grenade exploded, it was fire and light, and the sound was like a thunderbolt, which was like a demon law for the Jurchens who had no knowledge, not to mention those who were killed and injured, and the rest of the uninjured were also frightened and retreated, and they didn't dare to stop the Song people who came over at all.
Seeing this situation, Ah Guda in the back saw him reach out and take down his bow and arrows. A series of arrows killed several Song people who attacked them, and then roared: "The firearms of the Song people are nothing to fear. Stop them with your bow and arrows! ”
The role of the example is endless, not to mention that Ah Guta is still the leader of the Wanyan Department, with the leadership of Ah Guta, the Jurchens who were still retreating just now seemed to have found the backbone, and began to muster up the courage to open their bows and shoot arrows, and use their bows and arrows to block the attacks of the sneak attackers. This method is really effective, after all, the opponent's grenade can only be thrown by hand, which is far less than the range of a bow and arrow, so for a while the Jurchens blocked the attack.
However, before Ah Gu beat them up, they saw that the Song people who were attacking on the opposite side suddenly retreated. Then he only heard a sharp sound in the darkness behind the Song people, and then Ah Guda felt something flying overhead, and it seemed to be flickering with fire, which made him feel shocked, and the encounter of the year came to his heart again, which made him immediately shout: "Run!" ”
Before Ah Guda spoke, he himself had already hid behind a big tree, and then he only heard a loud "boom", the grenade just now was loud enough, but it was nothing compared to this explosion, and at the same time, Ah Guda only felt a wave of heat coming, which made him feel like he was about to be ignited.
This loud noise was like a signal, and then I saw that the camp of Wanyan was like a firecracker that was ignited, an explosion after an explosion, and finally almost a piece, which also made it difficult to muster up the courage to resist Wanyanbu finally collapsed again, countless people were involved in these explosions, for a time severed limbs and blood flew in the night sky, screams and cries were even more connected, among which many ballistas flew to the inside of Wanyanbu, after the explosion, it caused a fire, and the fire became bigger and bigger by the wind, At this time, no one cared about fighting fires.
Seeing this, Ah Guda's heart also sank, he was no stranger to this kind of ballista, and even he was sure that it was this firearm that injured him at the beginning, and after so many years, the firearms of the Song people seemed to be more sharp, and they had no resistance in the face of this weapon, if the Song people rushed in again at this time, I am afraid that even if they could not destroy their Wanyan Department, it would cause them extremely serious losses.
Thinking of this, Ah Guta made a decision almost instantly, only to see him bend down and carry a dead corpse as a shield, and then beckoned the other Jurchens who were not dead to retreat, the Jurchens did not have any habit of respecting the dead, seeing Ah Guta's appearance, everyone at the moment also did the same, carrying the dead corpses on the battlefield to protect themselves and retreat back.
After waiting for the range of most of the ballistas, Aguta immediately gathered his men to prepare to retreat, after all, the Song people's artillery fire was too fierce, they couldn't withstand it at all, rather than waiting in the camp for the Song people to cripple them with artillery fire, and then rush in, it was better to retreat now, the land was lost, so that there would be a chance to make a comeback in the future.
Many people objected to Aguta's decision, because the tribe stored all their materials and food, if they fled the tribe now, I am afraid that these food and materials will be looted by the other party, and it will be winter soon, without these food and materials, they will only be frozen to death and starve to death.
Seeing these opposing people, Ah Guda went up with a few lashes, after all, he was the leader of the tribe, and at such a critical moment, his orders would never allow anyone to disobey. Although his method of dealing with it was very domineering and barbaric, it was the best and most effective means of ruling for the Jurchens, at least as soon as his whip fell, those who opposed it immediately shut up and unanimously supported his decision.
However, Ah Gu Da still underestimated the Song people who attacked them, and just when they decided to retreat, they suddenly saw that the other party's ballista stopped, and no one rushed over again, which made the people in Wanyan Department stunned, and even Ah Gu Da couldn't guess what the other party was thinking?
In this way, there was a strange calm on the battlefield, but after a while, I heard a sharp sound in the darkness on the east side again, which was the sound of the ballista firing, and then I saw a round thing tumbling in the air and falling into the camp. And there is also a bad smell coming out.
"It's not good, it's the fire oil of the Song people, and our black bear department was burned to ashes by this thing!" At this time, he only heard the leader of the original Black Bear Department shouting in panic, since the tribe was almost wiped out, he and the rest of the tribe were completely engaged in the Wanyan tribe, but he still remembered the nightmarish scene that night.
Ah Guta also heard the shouts of the leader of the Black Bear Division, and when he heard that the Song people threw in the fire oil, he was also startled, and immediately understood the intentions of the Song people, it seems that they want to burn the entire Wanyan Department to ashes just like the first time they dealt with the Black Bear Division, so that even if they run out, all the materials and food in the tribe will be gone.
"Quick! Cover the oil with earth! At this time, I saw that Ah Guda reacted quickly, and immediately shouted angrily at the stunned people around him, and then saw him be the first to rush over, and use his weapon to dig up the soil on the ground and cover it with the fire oil that flowed out, so as not to be ignited by the Song army. At this time, he also knew that the Song people must have a weapon that could throw firearms and canisters of fire oil very far, similar to bed crossbows or stone throwers, but such weapons were all very large, how did the Song people transport them from the ship to the vicinity of their tribe? It was a question that he couldn't figure out.
Seeing Ah Gu's action, the others also immediately woke up, one by one they couldn't care about anything else, and began to desperately cover up the fire oil, but unfortunately the Song people who threw one side seemed to be very experienced, and after throwing the oil canister for a while, they began to replace it with ballista shells, but with a few explosions, the fire oil that fell to the ground was quickly ignited, and Ah Gu beat them didn't have time to cover it up.
The fire oil of the Song people is made with a special formula, as long as it is ignited, it is difficult to extinguish, Ah Guda watched as these fire oil was ignited, and then began to spread everywhere, and soon ignited other tents in the tribe, many old and weak women fled outside the tent, making the whole camp even more chaotic.
"It's over, I didn't expect the Song people to be so ruthless, so much food and supplies will be burned when they say they will burn us, it seems that they want to freeze us to death even if they can't burn us, they will freeze us to death and starve to death!" Seeing this situation, Ah Guda gritted his teeth at the moment. (To be continued......)
