The fifty-seventh chapter of Nansun Liu divides the three states, Sima Yi plans to slaughter the royal family (12
Cao Zhang's pioneer battalion was basically dead, and the smell of blood on the battlefield was even stronger, and Cao Zhang seemed to feel that most of his body was soaked in blood, which made him breathless. What made Cao Zhang's face even more pale was the battle between Minzhuang and the Tengjia Army.
The people without a piece of armor are no different from sending them to death against the invulnerable vine armor army. It is extremely difficult for the poorly trained Minzhuang to hit the vital point of the Fuji Armor Army with rudimentary weapons, but the Fuji Armor Army can attack with all their strength without any scruples and easily harvest the lives of the Minzhuang. The crossbowmen in the rear of the Jiaozhou army are also more lethal to the people. If more than ten Cao soldiers could exchange the lives of a Jiaozhou army before, then now fifty people may not be able to kill an enemy soldier.
Cao Zhang's order before the attack was to take the position in front of him before dark, and at this time the sun was setting, not only did the position not be taken, but his own men and horses were also dead, and the rear road of the army was cut off by Nan Ye. Cao Zhang began to reflect, did he and Li Ru underestimate Nan Ye too much?
Just when Cao Zhang doubted whether 100,000 people could take the position, a crisp cracking sound of "click~" startled him. Looking for prestige, Cao Zhang saw a Minzhuang's head blooming and falling to the ground, and there were broken pottery shards around his body.
"Where did the ceramics come from?" Cao Zhang wondered in his heart. Immediately followed by the sound of "click~", at this time Cao Zhang saw watermelon-sized jars falling from the sky and smashing into the military formation, and a strong smell of wine came to his face, even overshadowing the smell of blood on the battlefield.
Min Zhuang also seemed to notice that the wooden stakes smashed in the sky had turned into wine jars, so someone shouted: "The thunderbolt is useless!" Someone else shouted, "It's wine!" Hiss ~ What a strong wine! Looks like the man had a bite to eat.
Cao Zhang wondered in his heart, even if the Jiaozhou army ran out of stakes, they could throw other things, so why use a wine jar? Although the size and weight of the wine jar are more suitable for throwing, the lethality is not large, and the characteristics of breaking when it falls to the ground make each wine jar only kill and injure one or two people, and it is not like stones and wooden stakes that can also roll to kill the enemy.
If something goes wrong, it is a demon, Cao Zhang no longer dares to underestimate Nan Ye and the Jiaozhou Army at this time, so he hurriedly reported back to Li Ru. When Cao Zhang saw Li Ru, Niu Jin was also by Li Ru's side, and was reporting to Li Ru the chaos of the rear army's cannibalism.
Li Ru frowned when he heard Niu Jin finish speaking, and saw Cao Zhang coming, so he frowned and asked, "Your Highness, is the battle ahead of you not going well?" ”
Cao Zhang didn't go well from the beginning, but he knew that in Li Ru's heart, everything went smoothly according to plan, and it didn't matter how many soldiers and horses were lost, if measured by this standard, Cao Zhang couldn't say that it didn't go well. So Cao Zhang shook his head and said: "It's no different that Minzhuang is still attacking the mountain pass, it's just that the thunderbolt of the Jiaozhou army began to throw the wine jar, and I don't know what the plan is." ”
Li Ru was stunned when he heard this, he can understand most of Nan Ye's strategies, that is, he has fallen into passivity for a while, and Li Ru can also deduce how Nan Ye uses his strategy, but what is the strategy of throwing the wine altar Li Ru really doesn't know, could it be that Nan Ye wants to get drunk and his soldiers? It's ridiculous too.
Xiahou Shang and Niu Jin also looked at each other, and couldn't guess what the idea of the Jiaozhou army was. Just when a few people were puzzled, there was a sudden chaos ahead, and some people were heard shouting: "It's on fire!" Run! ”
Cao Zhang was stunned when he heard this, he had just returned from the front line, there was a real river of blood, and there were no trees on the hillside and cliffs, how could there be a fire? However, Cao Zhang was dumbfounded when he looked back, although he could not see the fire in the Chinese army, but the smoke that rushed to the sky was very conspicuous, and it seemed that the fire was not small.
Li Ru didn't expect that the Jiaozhou army could use spirits to ignite the fire until this time, it was not that Li Ru was stupid, but that the ancient alcohol was extremely low and could not be burned at all, and only the distilled liquor made by Nan Ye in Jiaozhou could burn. The third ammunition used by Ma Yunluo and Hua Bei is not an ordinary distilled liquor, but alcohol for disinfection in the army.
I couldn't understand why the front was on fire, but it didn't affect Li Ru's order, and he said to Cao Zhang and Niu Jin: "Your Highness quickly go and lead the front army to put out the fire, and General Niu can lead the team to move forward and kill the retreating rebel army." ”
Cao Zhang and Niu Jin went their separate ways, but when the two of them returned to the front of the formation, they were all dumbfounded, and they all shouted in their hearts: "It's not good! It's late! ”
At this time, there was already a sea of fire in front of Cao Zhang, the corpses of Cao soldiers on the ground, the antlers on both sides of the road, and the wooden stakes thrown by the thunderbolt car before all became fuel at this time and turned into raging flames. The smell of blood in the air was still strong, but it was covered in a burnt smell mixed with the smell of meat.
Many of the people were on fire, screaming and wailing, some rolling on the ground, and others running back and forth. The people who didn't catch fire on their bodies also behaved differently, some took off their clothes to fight the flames on their robes, and some were afraid of setting themselves on fire, so they directly stabbed the running people with the spears in their hands.
What made Cao Zhang feel unbelievable was that the fire on several people was so big that they simply turned into a burning man, and they couldn't be extinguished, and finally they could only die in a scream, and the burning corpses also ignited a large area of burning things around.
The location of the fire was between the two armies, and Cao Zhang could no longer see the Jiaozhou army holding their positions on the opposite side, let alone know how they set the fire. So Cao Chang called a Minzhuang and asked, "Why is there such a fire here?" ”
Minzhuang knew that Cao Zhangnai was the prince, and replied carefully: "The villain only saw a rocket shot from the array, and it landed on the ground, and it could not be extinguished, some people said that it was ......" said here Minzhuang glanced at Cao Zhang and did not dare to say more.
Cao Zhang glared and said, "It's okay for you to be blunt!" ”
Min Zhuang swallowed his saliva and said: "Some people say that the road of the national teacher is boundless, and the god of fire will be punished, and God will punish our army." There are also people who say that the national teacher casts a spell in wine, turns water into oil, and burns it when it encounters fire. ”
Cao Zhang was very disdainful of what the God of Fire said, and if Nan Ye really had the ability to invite the God of Fire, he would directly burn Li Ru of the Chinese army. However, if it is said that Cao Zhang is to blame for drinking, he really believes it, which can explain why the Jiaozhou Army threw the wine altar. Seeing that the fire was burning more and more vigorously by the wind, a wall of fire was formed, and Cao Jun could not advance an inch, and Cao Zhang had to repay Li Ru again. He didn't know that the Jiaozhou army on the other side of the fire wall had already begun to collect prisoners at this time, clean up the battlefield and prepare to withdraw. Those people who were cut off by the wall of fire and chose to surrender to the Jiaozhou army as soon as possible.
The situation in front of Niu Jin was not much better than that of Cao Zhang, and the tens of thousands of people in the rear team had all turned around and killed the Cao soldiers who supervised the battle, as if these Cao soldiers were not robes but enemies who forced them to die. At this time, Niu Jin didn't need to lead the troops forward, so he directly led the Cao soldiers to fight with the people in the rear, and sent a deputy general to inform Li Ru of the situation.
When Li Ru learned that the fire was spreading in front and the people in the rear were rebelling, he knew that something was wrong. There was no water source on the mountain road, and it was impossible to fight the fire, so Li Ru immediately made a decision and ordered Cao Bing to go back with all his strength to engage Minzhuang. As long as Nan Ye behind him can be captured and killed, Li Ru, who is strong in 50,000 people, will also lose.
The column of smoke formed by the burning fire soared into the sky, like an ink dragon flying into the sky, and could be seen from miles away. Nan Ye, whose soul was floating in the air and watching the sixth road, naturally saw the wolf smoke formed by the burning of Cao Jun's corpse, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Nan Ye knew that as long as the fire blocked the Cao army's large troops, Ma Yunluo, Hua Bei and the others would be safe.
At this time, the people in front of Nan Ye had all turned their heads and fought backwards, and Nan Ye was no longer in a hurry to slaughter these people, but just ordered the Tengjia Army to act as a supervising team in front to prevent the people from counterattacking. Nan Ye himself retreated to the back and said to a mage: "Give me the pigeon that sent the message among the generals!" ”
This guard is in charge of carrier pigeons, and generally does not participate in battles, but I saw him untie a bird cage from his horse and hand it to Nan Ye, and in the cage was a pure white carrier pigeon. Perhaps because of the bumpy horses, the carrier pigeons were a little sluggish. The guards were very strange why Nan Ye wanted to ask for carrier pigeons on the battlefield to send messages to Jiaozhou, if he wanted to transfer troops for help, no matter how fast the carrier pigeons were, it would be too late.
Of course, Nan Ye didn't want to send a letter to Jiaozhou, but to use this carrier pigeon, which was usually fed well, to investigate the enemy. Under the puzzled gaze of the guards, Nan Ye gently grabbed the listless carrier pigeon in the cage, and then used the soul control skill.
After the carrier pigeon was controlled by Nan Ye, he suddenly had spirituality, and he spread his wings and flew up with a kick of Nan Ye's loose hands, and Nan Ye's soul was also suspended above the carrier pigeon at this time, and flew out with the carrier pigeon.
Although Nan Ye's star-seeking and star-revealing skills can detect the number of enemy troops, they can't detect the specific battle situation. So Nan Ye thought of a way to use the soul control skill to control the carrier pigeons accompanying the army to act as reconnaissance aircraft. In this way, Nan Ye can be like the legendary immortal who walks against the wind, driving a carrier pigeon to have an unobstructed view of the battlefield.
Looking down at the battlefield at his feet, the first thing Nan Ye saw was the scene where Niu Jin led Cao Bing to fight with the rear team of Minzhuang, which made Nan Ye smile slightly, but he didn't expect that these Minzhuang themselves had all defected without persuasion. Flying further forward was Li Ru's Chinese army, and Cao Zhang and Xiahou Shang, who were dead under their command, were beside Li Ru, urging Cao Bing to fight with the people behind him. The carrier pigeon crossed the Chinese army, and saw that the 100,000 people of the front army were also in chaos at this time, and the people in the back were still crowded forward although they were not oppressed by the supervision team, and the people in front were desperately running backwards in order to escape the fate of being swallowed by the sea of fire, so the conflict broke out between the former army and the people in the rear.
Nan Ye followed the carrier pigeon and flew across the battlefield, although the soul could not feel the breeze, but a feeling of looking down on all beings arose. At this moment, Nan Ye felt that the skill name of the Divine Eye was really appropriate. The carrier pigeon in flight was quickly blocked by the pillar of smoke rushing to the sky, and Nan Ye couldn't feel the heat wave on the ground, but he could see the air distorting in the flames, and the black smoke connected the heavens and the earth.
