Chapter 108: Burning the military camp of the Republic of China
"See? I'm afraid I'll never be able to do it in my life. Then he looked at the brocade in front of him, and said with a lot of complaints: "Brother Jin, Mei'er knows that you are no longer on Mei'er's side, so no matter what Mei'er does in the future, Brother Jin should not interfere." With that, he walked out of the tent angrily.
Standing outside the tent, Ying Mei shouted into the distance: "Ah Zhong! Ah Zhong immediately appeared in front of her and left with her.
Stygian brocade hurriedly walked out of the tent, only to see her and Ah Zhong leaving.
His face was gloomy, and he couldn't help but worry in his heart.
At this time, there was a dead silence in the military camp of the Yu Republic of China, and it was time for him to leave. Just when he left, he set a fire in his hand, and the raging fire quickly engulfed everything in the barracks.
The soldiers on Bai Shenguo's night patrol suddenly smelled the smell of burnt things, thinking that someone in the barracks had lit a fire without permission, but when they were about to go to investigate, they found that the sky in the direction of the Yumin military camp was as red as a burning cloud. was immediately shocked and immediately reported the matter to Wu Xu.
"General! General! ”
The captain of the patrol team hurriedly walked towards Wu Xu's tent, shouting as he walked, but Wu Xu had not yet walked out of the tent, and he first alarmed the valley.
Huagu frowned and said, "What are you shouting at night?" The general is resting, you can't wait! ”
"Strategist!" The captain of the patrol immediately stopped, looked at the painting valley in front of him, and said with a stern expression: "The subordinates didn't mean to disturb the general's news, but something big happened!" I had to report to the general immediately! ”
"What's the big deal?"
Wang Meng, the captain of the patrol team, immediately said: "Military, please look!" ”
Huagu looked in the direction of his finger, and was immediately shocked, the entire Yumin military camp was wrapped in a sea of fire, and the smell of choking came from there, not only the smell of burnt things, but also ...... The smell of dead people's blood.
"Quick! You take someone to check it out first, and I'll report the matter to the general immediately!" ”
Wang Meng said: "Obey! ”
Seeing Wang Meng leading a team of men and horses towards the military camp of the Republic of Yu, Huagu walked towards Wu Xu's camp tent with a panicked expression, and was blocked by two guards when he walked to the entrance of the camp tent, he immediately said: "You go to report to the general, just say ......."
"Strategist, what's wrong?" In fact, when Wang Meng shouted, Wu Xu had already woken up, and then began to get dressed and get up, just when he walked to the curtain, he heard the anxious voice of Huagu, lifted the curtain casually, looked at Huagu in front of him and asked.
"General, it's not good! Cheng Shiling's barracks are on fire! As he spoke, he pointed to a sea of fire in the distance.
"What?" Wu Xu was taken aback, and after confirming Huagu's words, he immediately said, "What's going on?" How can a good one catch fire? ”
"I don't know, the first person to find out that the Yumin military camp was on fire was the captain of the patrol, Wang Meng, and I already asked him to take a team of people to check the situation first, I think I will soon know the cause of the fire."
At this moment, Wang Meng hurried over, stood firmly in front of Wu Xu, clasped his hands into fists, and said: "General, my subordinates went to look at it and found that the fire was very big, and the other subordinates were very strange that no one in the military camp of the Republic of Yu shouted for help or escaped from the sea of fire. ”
Wu Xu's expression was grim when he heard this: "This fire came suddenly, and the generals of the Yu Republic did not move at all in this fire, could it be that they had already fled when the fire was small?" ”
The silent painting Gu pondered and said, "General, I'm afraid it's not like that. ”
"What do you mean by that?"
Huagu consciously glanced towards the place where the fire was burning, and said in a condensed voice: "The general carefully smells the smell in the air, in addition to the smell of things being burned, there is also a trace of blood. ”
Wu Xu smelled a very strange smell when he came out of the tent, and at this time, he seemed to understand a little: "Military advisor, General Ben thinks that no matter what, he should also order someone to go and put out the fire to see if there are any survivors." ”
The few wisps of survivors were slim, because the fire was too big. But even if it's not to save the survivors, as an alliance with the Republic of Yu, they should investigate the matter clearly.
"What the general said is very true, and the fire needs to be extinguished immediately." Painting Valley Road.
When Wu Xu heard this, he immediately ordered someone to go and extinguish the fire, but the fire was too big, and the effect of extinguishing it alone was very small, and the fire burned all night, and the fire was only small at dawn the next day.
After the fire was smaller, Wu Xu immediately ordered people to start a search. When they stepped into the barracks, they were both surprised and frightened by what they saw. After the fire, the military camp of the Republic of Yu has almost become a ruin, and the charred corpses of soldiers can be seen everywhere, and the military camp of the Republic of Yu at this time is like purgatory.
Wang Meng and the other two captains led the people to carry out the charred corpses in the military camp one by one, and the corpses were stacked high into a hill, and some soldiers who couldn't stand it turned around and vomited out what they had eaten yesterday.
Wu Xu's expression was complicated, and after a deep sigh, he said, "Strategist, who do you say will do this?" ”
He didn't dare to think about it, because he already understood that the enemy he was facing was too strong, but in one night, the soldiers in the Han Republic military camp were buried in the flames, and the most terrible thing was that they only noticed it after the fire was burning. But judging from the charred corpses, the arsonist must have killed them all before they set the fire.
So many people, in the silent night, died quietly.
Huagu said with gloomy eyes: "If you don't find Emperor Yan Feng and Iris, then it means that this is done by people from Yan Ling Kingdom." ”
"You think the same way as General Ben." Looking at Wang Meng, he said: "Wang Meng, immediately take someone to find Yan Difeng and the servant girl Iris, this general wants to know that the two are not among them." ”
"Yes!" Wang Meng was ordered to take people to look for it, and after a while, he brought out a headless corpse, ordered someone to put the corpse in front of Wu Xu's eyes, and replied: "General Qiyu, I didn't find Emperor Yan and the maidservant, but only found this headless male corpse in General Cheng Shiling's tent. ”
When Wu Xu heard this, he immediately stepped forward to check, and immediately confirmed that the headless male corpse was Cheng Shiling himself, then looked at Huagu, and said: "This general knows a little bit about Cheng Shiling, and it can be concluded from his body shape that this person is Cheng Shiling. ”
Huagu sighed: "The people of the Yanling Kingdom are really terrifying. ”
Wu Xu glanced at him, was silent for a moment, looked at Cheng Shiling and said, "The words you warned him earlier are echoing in General Ben's ears at this time, Huagu, you are right." ”
"What is the General going to do next?"
"In the first battle, we lost to Yan Lingguo, which is already a great insult, after all, everyone now thinks that Yan Lingguo is not as good as it was at the beginning, and our failure in this situation is simply a manifestation of incompetence. After a pause, he said in a deep voice: "Cheng Shiling wanted to win quickly, but he did something wrong, and now he has also received retribution, and it has also shown us the terrible things about Emperor Yan and Qiansang. The words stopped here, quite sad, looking at Huagu, his eyes were bright and firm, and he said word by word: "But Huagu, we are soldiers, and our duty is to protect the country and sacrifice for the country and the people." Now that something like this has happened in the military camp of the Republic of Yu, we must not retreat in the face of difficulties, and this battle will continue to be fought! ”
Painting Valley said: "The general's loyalty and righteousness Painting Valley is admired. He arched his hand and said: "Draw Gu to follow the general to the death!" ”
Wu Xu was relieved.
"It's just a general, the destruction of the entire army of the Yu Republic needs to be immediately informed of the emperor of the Yu Minguo, presumably after knowing this, the Yu Republic of China will immediately send troops to support, after all, it is really ...... to rely on us to confront the Yan Ling Kingdom alone"
"I understand your thoughts." Wu Xu said with a serious expression: "Before, we underestimated the Yanling Kingdom, after this incident, we must be cautious in sending troops, in order not to repeat the mistakes of the Yu Republic of China, we must be cautious every step we take." ”
"What the general said is very true."
"This general will immediately repair a letter to the king, about everything that happened in the military camp of the Yu Republic of China, let the king come up and talk to the king of the Yu Republic of China."
"Yes." Painted Valley nodded in approval.
