I can already feel the temperature on my forehead rising sharply, and it is becoming difficult to breathe, the fire is burning with thick smoke, life and death are only a thought, and if you hesitate, it is too late to kill the horse to survive.

Whether to live or die, the wolf cavalry knows how to choose. It is a place of death, and if there is a glimmer of hope for survival, they will not hesitate to fight for it and work hard.

Killing your good partner and buddy just to be able to survive is ruthless and unjust, but it is not a choice.

People are selfish, and at the juncture of life and death, even Shi Dayong, a later generation, also chose to kill horses for his own survival, not to mention these ancients.

"Man, I'm sorry"

The hesitation was short-lived, and soon, a Matsuyama veteran gritted his teeth, hugged the horse's neck and wept silently, and his right hand holding the blade slowly wiped from the horse's neck, and a stream of blood immediately gushed out from the horse's neck.

The horse jumped and pouted like crazy, dragging the old soldier to his feet. After a few jumps, the war horse neighed and collapsed to the ground, convulsing his body without stopping, looking at his master in confusion with painful eyes, and he did not understand why his master would kill him until he died

The master's eyes were filled with tears, and pain took over every inch of his nerves.

One, two, three...

One war horse after another was slaughtered by his own master, and the air was full of the smell of horse blood; The ground was littered with the corpses of war horses; In the sky, it was the cry of horses.

Compared with those Songshan veterans, the Changping soldiers did not have a deep affection for the war horse, so when those veterans were still hesitating, the instinct of survival made them wave the butcher knife at the war horse without hesitation.

Following the example of the general, the wolf cavalry all got into the belly of the horse, covering their mouths and noses and waiting for the fire to arrive.

The temperature is getting higher and higher, and the "crackling" sound of the dead grass being ignited can be clearly heard in my ears, and the ground has also begun to heat up, and the ground that was originally a piece of blood and water was instantly roasted dry, leaving behind blood-colored black soil.

Whether it is the yellowed bitter grass or the green grass, in the face of this fire, it will eventually turn into ashes.

The wind was blowing, and the wolf cavalry under the horse's belly waited tormentedly. Not only did they have to endure the smoke between their fingers, but they also had to endure the unbearable heat.

Everyone, including Shi Dayong, gritted their teeth and struggled to support, and they didn't dare to move their bodies, even if the water in the horse's belly smelled bad and smelly, they had to shrink back again.

Without a trace of deviation, the fire burned straight towards the location of the wolf cavalry, devouring everything in an instant, and the scorching flames burned over the horse's corpse, burning the iron armor hot, and the leather rope tied to it was instantly burned into a ball, emitting a scorching smell.

Without stopping, the raging fire continued to move forward.

After the fire, all the horses were emitting faint black smoke, and there was also a light yellowish smoke floating on the ground around them, like cooking smoke.

The mane of the horse had been burned out, leaving behind a bare, burnt corpse.

Hundreds of corpses of the Jin army were lying around, and the fire burned their appearance, and everything that could be burned on their bodies was burned and became jet black.

The air was filled with a disgusting smell, and it was impossible to tell the difference between horse meat and human flesh.

In Siye, all that came was the shouting and killing of the Ming army, but here, it was quiet, there was no sign of life, only the scattered small fires were still making the sound of burning dead branches.

…………

After the fire raged, thousands of Changping soldiers searched along the riverbank, constantly shouting "General, General..."

The fire not only forced the Jin army back, but also changed everything, looking at it, except for ashes and corpses, everywhere was the same, there was no way to tell which was which, the soldiers could only rely on their previous memories to search slowly.

There were corpses everywhere in the river and on the banks, people, horses, burned, and unburned, one in the east and one in the west.

"General, you can't die, you can't die ..."

Jiang Wanli's voice trembled, and the tragic situation he saw in front of him made his heart cold to the bottom of the ice, no one would survive this fire, no one would be, but he didn't dare to really believe that the general would die in this fire that he had set up with his own hands.

If the general is really dead, isn't he the murderer who killed the general?

Pain, self-blame, and remorse were intertwined in Jiang Wanli's heart, making him tremble uncontrollably. Although he and Shi Dayong realized that it was only a few months now, one bloody battle after another had made Jiang Wanli accept the new boss, and he really couldn't accept Shi Dayong's death

Huang An barely managed to maintain some composure, and he didn't believe that the general was really dead until he saw the corpses of Shi Dayong and the wolf cavalry

"Look everywhere, turn everywhere, you must find the general and the wolf rider brothers" Huang An kept repeating the order.

"The General Is There"

Finally, a soldier found the horse corpses all over the ground in front of him, and also saw the large banner with the word "Shi" that had fallen to the ground and had been half burned.

Following the soldier's voice, Huang An and Jiang Wanli looked over at the same time, and everything in front of them made them feel like they had been electrocuted—hundreds of horse corpses and human corpses were mixed together.

"General"

A terrible shout resounded in the air, Jiang Wanli ran over nervously, ran too quickly, was shaken to the ground by a spear, and after getting up, regardless of the great pain in his knees, he stumbled towards the horse corpses.

"No, no... The general will not die..."

One corpse after another was turned over, but the corpses that had been burned by the fire were all the same, and it was impossible to tell who was who.

After turning over dozens of corpses, Jiang Wanli sat down on the ground with a haggard heart, and there was no sign of life around, it seemed that General Shi was really martyred in the fire

After closing his eyes and resisting the urge to cry out loud, Huang An gave an order to the soldiers who were still checking the exams: "Bring all the corpses back, we have to deal with the aftermath of the general and the wolf rider brothers."

"Yes, sir."

After listening to the guerrilla master's order, the nearest soldiers were about to lift the corpse under their feet with tears in their eyes, but they didn't want to, but they all fell backwards together. It turned out that the corpse had probably been burned by the fire for too long, and the hands and legs had been roasted, and the bloody flesh fell off the bones when it was pulled.

Looking at the human flesh still in their hands, the soldiers hurriedly threw them aside, their faces bloodless with fright, and one of the young ones vomited wildly.

Seeing this, Huang An sighed slightly, after all, these Changping soldiers had never been on the battlefield, and they had never seen the tragic scene of flesh and blood flying and their intestines rotting, and they would naturally be frightened when they saw this roasted human flesh.

"Everyone be careful, these corpses may have generals and wolf rider brothers, try not to damage the corpses."

After Huang An finished speaking, he motioned to the soldiers to continue to carry the corpse, and when he saw Jiang Wanli sitting there in a daze, he hesitated for a moment, but still walked over and prepared to help him up, discussing whether to counterattack with the army or withdraw the army now.

As soon as he arrived at Jiang Wanli's side, the horse corpse on the left suddenly moved

Huang An was taken aback, instinctively pressed his hand on the hilt of the knife, and looked at the horse corpse in disbelief. After a few seconds, the horse's belly moved twice, and then a bloody hand came out from under the horse's belly, and then violently wrestled at the horse, lifting the horse's carcass aside. Immediately afterwards, a big man covered in blood came out of it, with a piece of blood intestine wrapped around his neck. Xu was too suffocated in the horse's belly, and the big man immediately took a big gulp of air after he came out, ignoring the disgusting smell in the air and the faint smell of smoke.

After taking a few breaths, the big man slowly turned around, glanced at the soldiers who had seen them straight, and said weakly: "There are our brothers in the horse's belly, everyone hurry up and pull people out." ()
