Chapter 164: Fire Attack and Fight Again
"It's on fire! It's on fire! ”
"Help!"
The screams pierced the sky in an instant, and the frightened horses raised their hooves and rampaged, completely losing control, and the three of the six-man squad could not dodge and were knocked down first.
Even if they are equipped with martial arts, but the terrain here is too narrow, people and horses are all crowded together, there is no room for manoeuvre, and their bodies have long been injured, there is nowhere to escape, as soon as the body touches the ground, the clothes are ignited by the fire, and instantly become three fireballs, trying to jump up to avoid the fire, but the high raised horse's hooves stepped down again, and the three of them rolled and howled under the trampling of iron hooves, and the scene was miserable.
"Get on board!"
"Kill the horse first!"
"Kill the horse!"
The remaining three people were accustomed to walking the rivers and lakes, and instantly saw the situation in the field, so they jumped on the horse's back one after another, drew their knives and stabbed the horse's neck.
The terrain was too dangerous, there were fires on the front and back, left and right, and even the cliffs on both sides were burning, and the frightened horses blocked all the way.
In the midst of the raging fire, horses neighed, and horses whose carotid arteries had been severed fell to the ground and screamed in a terrible sound that was different from the screams of Fang Cai.
It's just that it's a little late to kill the horse at this time, the animal has more oil than the human, and two horses are already on fire. And in just a few breaths, the fire is getting bigger and bigger, burning from the ground to the cliff, and the mountain road of more than 100 meters suddenly becomes a sea of fire.
It wasn't until this moment that the remaining three realized that they had no way out.
The fire has become overwhelming, and the Crazy Horse is also on fire blocking the road, and they have long lost their best chance to escape.
The trees and corpses burned by the fire emitted an unpleasant smell of burning, and the tongue of fire swallowed up what was left of the air, and the smoke rolled into the nose and nose, and soon made it difficult to breathe.
The vast majority of creatures that die in the fire are suffocated by smoke that blocks their airways.
"Boss help!"
"Help!"
The cry for help went from being shrill and piercing at the beginning to being inaudible at the end, and it only took more than half a moment, and soon, only the eternal sound of the wind and the "beep" sound came from the burning of the fire between the narrow mountain roads.
Looking at the red-burned corner of the sky in the distance, everyone hiding in the belly of the mountain trembled.
If, before this, these pursuers were just an abstract term in their eyes, then, at this moment, they finally understood that this was a real fight for their lives.
The scene of the two groups of people breaking into the sky, many of them have seen it, looking at those black-clothed people with swords and swords, and even Li Gong is pale, not to mention the female dependent.
At this moment, Ni and Li were holding Li Xi and He Sui respectively, the four of them were as white as paper, and the Huang mother and son next to them were even more afraid of the chaos all over, and the ten-year-old He Lun even cried, but was covered by his brother.
The situation on the Han family's side is relatively better, Guo Wan's existence plays a role in fixing the sea god needle, however, her face is also very pale, but she is far more able to control her emotions than others. At this time, she was walking around, comforting frightened women and children, and at the same time ordering the movable subordinates to bring hot water.
Ye Qing had already retreated to the position of the second carriage, and there was no emotion on his indifferent face.
According to the original plan, she was going to intercept and kill the fish that escaped from the fire, or kill people or horses.
But for now, it seems that there is no need.
This six-person team, even with men and horses, has already lost its life.
Chen Ying took the longbow, slowly walked out of the invisible, and came to Ye Qing's side.
"Fire attack, good." As soon as she approached, Ye Qing said so.
This is probably the only time she affirmed Chen Ying.
When Chen Ying heard this, there was no joy on his face, his eyebrows were still frowning slightly, and his face was worried: "Most of the oil is used there, and it can only resist for a while." ”
So far, they have killed a total of eight enemies, and there are still more than 20 survivors on the other side, and their strength is still far stronger than their own.
"It's a pity that those ten arrows are gone." Chen Ying sighed softly again.
She still had nineteen arrows left in her hand, and one less with one couldn't help but make her feel distressed.
Ye Qing turned his face to look at her, with a somewhat strange expression: "You want to kill them all?" ”
With their strength, this is nothing less than a fool's dream.
"It's impossible." Chen Ying denied her speculation, but the gloom on her face never faded: "My purpose is to delay as much time as possible and wait for reinforcements to arrive. And the best way to delay time is to damage the opponent's combat power to the greatest extent, either killing or injuring. However, at present, the effect is not very good. ”
Staring at the raging flames in front of her, her face became more and more contemplative: "We have set up a total of three lines of defense, and now, the first line of defense has lost its effect. This is the strongest line of defense, and without this barrier, we will have a hard time going forward. ”
The arrow array and fire attack are the first line of defense laid by Chen Ying, and their role is to reduce the opponent's troops, and the other is to intimidate, so that the opponent does not dare to attack rashly.
At the end of the day, it's still stalling for time.
"It's better than eating." Ye Qing gave a very divergent conclusion, a somewhat fanciful sentence, but it was specifically for the use of the oil that ignited the fire.
Hearing this, a wry smile appeared on Chen Ying's face, and he said: "That's right, it's not in vain that Ma Lao San killed three mules." ”
In order to hide the thick aroma of oil, Chen Ying had to slaughter several of the Han family's animals, collect the blood, and sprinkle it everywhere so that the bloody gas would overshadow the taste of the former. Of course, the mule's tail was also used by Chen Ying as a wig for Ye Qing, and the other party didn't dislike the smell on it.
In addition, in order to make this fire burn more violently, even on both sides of the cliff, Chen Ying poured a large amount of oil on it, so that the plotters had nowhere to escape.
As a direct consequence of this, they won't be able to eat stir-fry tonight.
Compared with this little sacrifice, Chen Ying felt that it was more appropriate to use these oils here.
Of course, this is thanks to that god-like teammate - Guo Wan.
The banner of the Han family was originally delivery, and coincidentally, there were exactly a few urns of oil in this batch of goods, which Chen Ying found out when he was at the Huangxian Post Station. Later, when she changed cars, she deliberately left the oil and cloth in the goods, and it was precisely out of a hidden sense of crisis that she always felt that these two things would be useful.
"If I had known what was happening today, I would have brought more oil on the road." I don't know when, Guo Wan also walked over, stood behind Chen Ying and the others, and said softly.
Chen Ying looked back and smiled at her: "Fourth Grandma Qiu Bingxue is smart and has already helped a lot." Without you, our set-up wouldn't be so quick and effective. ”
