Chapter 256: Fire!
"Hahahaha." On the war horse, Lu Bu smiled happily. Looking back, behind him was a raging wood, engulfed in flames, turning into raging forest fires, and the sound of cries and curses came from the forest. It was accompanied by a rapidly rising temperature in the air, and even when he was far away, he could still feel the heat rushing to his face.
Now many Xianbei soldiers are about to be roasted, as long as the Xianbei cavalry who follow them into the woods, except for a few, most of them will be buried in the fire, Lu Bu has to admit that this is a more difficult torture than death. There are actually two kinds of death, one is to die immediately without much pain. The other is to die later, but to endure endless pain, probably burned alive, feeling the despair and temperature of the scorching flames raging on the body, it is something more terrifying than death, but Lu Bu has no pity, on the contrary, it is just pleasure, endless pleasure.
The autumn wind was blowing on the grassland, and it swept violently along the place where Lu Bu's eyes looked, and suddenly the flames in the woods were surrounded by this area, and the fire became even bigger. The fire borrowed the wind, and in the blink of an eye, the entire forest was on fire, even the grass and trees at the edge of the forest were no exception, and they became flames in the sea of fire one by one.
The rolling flames raged, and many Bingzhou cavalry subconsciously swallowed their saliva, looking at the sea of fire not far away in a daze. In the face of this man-made disaster, which is similar to a natural disaster, no matter how brave they are, they have to admit that they are a little afraid. The crackling and falling trees, the crimson flames that seemed to soar into the sky, there was almost no doubt that in such an environment, manpower could not escape, it was just how long it lasted. However, the longer you persist, the more painful it will be, and it is better to give yourself a pleasure to be crisp and neat.
In this environment, even if it is stone and sand, the cavalry present are suspicious that it will be burned, let alone that when the fire is finished, it will be open to God if there will be a pile of bones left. Fortunately, yes, there is a kind of emotion similar to happiness in their hearts, at least each of them does not have to face such a ruthless and invincible enemy, they can also use the knives and guns in their hands to fight their way out. The Xianbei people who were caught in the sea of fire were different, and what they stepped into was a place of no return, and the irresistible flames were enough to turn them into ashes.
From the sea of fire, a group of cavalry galloped in the direction of Lu Bu, and it was Gao Shun who led the team. When they got closer, not only did the faces of many of the cavalrymen who followed Lu Bu and the others in place become interesting, but even Lu Bu's eyes became a little weird, looking at Gao Shun and his party, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
The reason is actually nothing, just embarrassed, disgraced, and some people feel ridiculous. It's Gao Shun, his face is all black, and some people can't recognize his true face. Not to mention the other cavalry, as soon as they rode their horses in front of Lu Bu, many of the cavalry could smell the strong wind that came with them, with a smell of burning plants and trees, and the smell of burning after something was burned.
"Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life." Gao Shun said to Lu Bu on the horse. At this time, he had time to wipe a handful of black ash on his face with his hand, just now he was trying to escape from the sea of fire, and it was too late to escape, who would have the time to reach out and wipe off a layer of ash on his face.
Gao Shun didn't know that his actions made him even more funny, and Lu Bu, who had been keeping a straight face, unconsciously showed a smile on his face. He coughed lightly twice, hiding the expression on his face, and Lu Bu asked, "What's the matter?" ”
He was still a little strange, everything was prepared when the division of troops was decided, including all their current cavalry with one man and two horses, and even the fire in front of him was already being planned. Long ago, Lu Bu sent people to prepare war horses in the woods, as well as all kinds of fire-igniting things, once the enemy was too strong and chased after him, then he would be dealt a hard blow. Of course, such an insidious plan was not made by any of the three of him, Zhang Liao or Gao Shun, but Yun Ting.
"Whew." Gao Shun swallowed a breath of turbidity, and after running out of the woods, he felt that the whole person was much better, but he still felt a little unhappy in his throat and eyes, as if there were burning ashes. Even though he knew it was a delusion, he couldn't help but cough.
"Ahem. The wind was too strong, and the woods were so dry that they would burn as soon as there was a spark, and if they hadn't planned in advance, and if they had run fast, they would have burned themselves. Gao Shun thought with some fear.
They didn't just set fires, they also took on the task of lubbing the Xianbei cavalry into the woods, and as soon as they entered the woods, the flames burst into flames as soon as he and the bait cavalry passed through the ambush and set the fire to the soldiers. The whole forest was literally on fire, and after a few minutes, the woods behind him were all caught in flames, if it wasn't for Gao Shun's order, I was afraid that those soldiers would stay and continue to light the fire, and then it would be too late to escape! Because not long after they left, Flame took over the task of the Xianbei cavalry and became the new pursuer, not only in hot pursuit, but also menacing.
Listening to the cries of pain coming from behind them, they raced against time, and galloped out of the woods, literally brushing shoulders with death. After all, it was a forest, and there were trees everywhere, and the horses could not exert their maximum speed in it, and they were almost caught in the fire.
Gao Shun had a feeling of the rest of his life after the catastrophe, he didn't expect that Yun Ting, who usually looked very kind and didn't have a little shelf, could come up with such a poisonous plan, and the fire burned so vigorously. Fortunately, Yun Ting let them prepare so much at the beginning, so that they could fight like this, otherwise they would have to leave one road directly.
"Let's go." Lu Bu ordered without hesitation, and the entire Qizhou cavalry army immediately took action and galloped into the distance.
This fire is just a small counterattack, but it is bound to cause the anger of the Xianbei people, so many pursuers, a small wood, a fire can not even extinguish the eleventh. This little obstacle, when the Xianbei people react, then it is not a problem.
He had to hurry up and start galloping on the grassland with the cavalry, a cavalry army, only in the non-stop action, is the real cavalry. Once you stay, it means hard fighting, death, and even total annihilation.
It's not cowardice, it's not cowardice, it's just a strategic shift, and the counterattack is just after.
