Huo Quzhi frowned, this situation is not easy to handle now, if it is a direct attack, the army will inevitably suffer heavy losses, but if it is to be consumed, the other party's grain reserves are not very clear.

With this effort, it is better to lay a few more pieces of territory.

At this time, Jinyi quietly came to Huo Quai's side.

"The general must be hesitating to take this stockade. Jinyi gently shook the origami fan in his hand and said to Huo Quzhi.

"The military advisor is right, this stockade is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are many ways to capture it, but most of them will cost the army. Huo Quzhi sat on the horse, with a pair of eyes slightly closed, looking at the village from afar.

Then he said: "I don't know if the military division can take this stockade?"

After hearing this, Jinyi shook the folding fan, his deep dark eyes lit up, and then he said: "Fire attack, the mountains and forests here are dense, and it is completely possible to burn this without a single soldier." ”

After listening to it, Huo Qubing thought about it, which was a good way, but Huo Qubing had received an education of Confucian benevolence before, and even if he came to another world, this thought was imprinted in the depths of his mind.

"Why, we are reluctant to let these civilians go? We destroy their country, destroy their homes, and let them go, they may not be grateful to us, General Huo Quzhi should know the truth that cutting grass does not eradicate the roots, and the spring breeze blows and grows again. Jinyi saw that Huo Qubing was a little hesitant, and a touch of coldness couldn't help but appear on his face.

"No, Huo naturally knows the truth of cutting grass and eradicating roots, Huo is worried about what to do if it burns flowers and plants. This is a mountain range, and this burn is a whole mountain range. Huo Quzhi shook his head, and instead pointed to the endless mountain range.

Jinyi was stunned when he heard the second half of Huo Quzhi's words at first, but then he came back to his senses, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he said to the broken army next to him: "Broken army, bring the army of the 100,000 mountains." ”

Since it is a map of 100,000 mountains to encircle and suppress the enemy, this 100,000 mountains is natural.

The broken army quickly took the map of the 100,000 mountains to Jinyi.

Jinyi's eyes were firmly fixed on the map, staring here and there for a while.

turned to Huo Qubing and smiled and said, "Burn, even if you burn, I have a bold idea!"

Huo Quzhi saw that Jinyi was so decisive, and he also acquiesced to this idea, after all, the sooner this matter is resolved, the better.

So he ordered his men to prepare a large pile of dry firewood at once, and distributed it all over the mountains.

"Set fire!" With Huo Quai's order, the soldiers under his command began to light the torches, and a large amount of dry firewood mixed with the leafy woods.

Suddenly, a fire burst into the sky, like a fire dragon hovering over this mountain range, and the Tianyang Army had already moved away from this mountain range early, retreating to a flat land thousands of kilometers away.

The sky was lit up by a huge fire, and the entire mountain was burning like dry wood, spreading rapidly. Because there is a message in this empty plain, the fire will not spread here for the time being.

The fire burned the stockade on the mountains, which naturally included everything in the stockade, and the group of people hid in the walls, beware of both the flames and the smoke.

By now, many people had been burned to death, and the smoke had spread into the hollowed-out walls, and it was spreading rapidly.

"General, otherwise we will surrender, and we will be able to preserve our strength in the future. At this time, the other lieutenant covered his mouth and said in a weak voice.

Meng Shengming hesitated slightly, looked at the people around him, and then looked at the soldiers with yellow faces, and then said: "That's right, stay in the green mountains and don't be afraid of no firewood." ”

Preparing to go out and surrender, at the hole in the city wall, his lips squirmed for a while, and he shouted slightly: "I, Meng Shengming, am willing to surrender to the Tianyang Dynasty, and I only ask the Tianyang Dynasty not to kill these people." ”

But Huo Qubing showed no signs of stopping, but let the mountain fire burn more and more, and it burned bigger and bigger.

Huo Qubing is also a general who has been fighting for many years, and it is simply self-defeating to release them in this case.

Huo Qubing naturally wouldn't do this kind of thing of letting the tiger go back to the mountain, but in the face of the flames spreading to the south, a trace of worry appeared before Huo Quzhi's eyebrows.

After all, this is a large mountain range, and a large part of it is in the Southern Heaven Domain to the south of the next door.

Since the fire was lit on the mountain, it spread extremely quickly, but Jinyi had no intention of retreating for the time being.

Jinyi and Huo Quzhi sat side by side, just looking at the flames in the distance, watching this fire burn a large area of the woods into black powder, and the hollow city wall in the stockade has long been lifeless, and a few people can be seen between the small gaps in the city wall before, but now no one can be seen.

"Break the army, take a team of people up to have a look, be careful of deception, be careful. Jinyi's eyes narrowed, and he said to the broken army next to him, whose body was like an iron tower.

"Yes!" Breaker brought eight hundred men to the stockade for the sake of safety, and the fire was quickly extinguished because it was made entirely of stone.

However, there were still some dead trees that still flickered faintly with sparks, and most of the flames had spread to the forest deep in the distance.

Walking into the city tower, Po Jun saw one corpse after another lying in the tower, most of them were suffocated to death, and many were killed by heat alive.

It's not strange to break the army, after all, he has followed Jinyi for many years, and the name of the poisoner is not in vain.

And many of these Tianyang Dynasty troops were recruits, and this was the first time they had seen corpses on such a large scale.

"General, why didn't they take them in when they surrendered before...... Also, why the hell are they...... Because they're weak. A recruit ran directly over to Chen Yang and asked.

"If you are not of my race, your heart will be punished!" This is what the Holy Lord said, and Po Jun immediately said: "The weak do not deserve to die, but if the strong want them to die, they must die! ”

The recruit pondered for a moment, apparently understanding something, bowed to the broken army, and hurried away.

After checking that there are almost no people alive here, you can go back to standby.

"General, some soldiers and a lieutenant general are missing. At this time, the person who reported the situation hurriedly ran to the broken army and reported.

"It's okay, everyone can go back if you check it out. "I don't care if someone doesn't match, after all, it's normal for there to be deserters.

But I still have to talk to Jinyi, otherwise I always feel unsure.
