Outside the city, the people of Lerea gathered together and gritted their teeth as the gates of the city were closed. They exhausted all their resources, and even ran to this deep mountain and old forest to take root in order to avoid the Jeruths, but what they didn't expect was that they still couldn't escape this catastrophe. The Jeruts not only brought it in, but also broke the city and took it for themselves.

"I can't take it anymore, I'm going to kill them, even if I can kill one!", one of the Leria men took the bow from his body and grabbed it in his hand, his teeth clattering, "and my grandfather is still in the city, and I don't know if they will bully the old man." ”

As he spoke, he was about to walk forward, but was immediately grabbed by several people.

One of them, who was obviously of a higher status, reassured: "What's the use of you going alone? Have you forgotten what the Archons said, they are going to leave here eventually, and if they enter the forest again, they will have their own end!"

Leria's strategy is like this, abandoning the city, which is bound to fall, and directly breaking into pieces and entering the forest. The Yerutian offensive from the outside world will not stop, and the people here will inevitably leave. Previously, due to insufficient preparation, it was not possible to effectively stop the Jeruts in the forest. But after they abandoned the city, the situation suddenly turned around. The Jeruthians were in the light and the Lerea were in the shadows, and they were constantly placing all kinds of traps and obstacles on the way out of the mountain, so the Lereas took it seriously that as long as the Jeruts left the city, it would be their time to perish.

Over the past few days, the Yeruts' jungle warfare experience has increased, and the Lerea have grown. They are more familiar with the methods of jungle warfare, and they are more proficient in it. And most importantly, the oracle of the beast god among the two remaining heroes of Leriath has returned. He didn't come back alone, but he brought back a group of demonic beasts that would become a nightmare for the enemies in the jungle!

At first, the man gritted his teeth, sighed hard, and slammed his fist on the trunk of the tree, and the branches rattled. Several people glanced at each other a few times before disappearing into the dense foliage.

On the city walls, the sentinels who were constantly watching the jungle around the city had already spotted them, but they did not light the wolf smoke. After taking over the city of the Leriates, many of the Lerea people always appeared in the trees around the city, observing the movements of the city from afar. They would not approach the city unexpectedly, and they would quickly leave when the Jerutian scouts attacked, leaving the Jeruts helpless against them.

And in the city hall in the city, the bald head endured the scarred whiplash on his back, and sat with his back straight, his face was slightly pale, and there were beads of sweat on his forehead and sideburns, "Rosie, how are things going?"

Rossi stood up, "Ready to go." ”

The bald head nodded, and also stood up. The corners of his eyes twitched suddenly, and a standing motion required the mobilization of his spine, and the pull of his back muscles made several wounds that had just healed burst a little, making him feel painful. It's not that tough guys aren't afraid of pain, it's just that tough guys have a stronger tolerance for pain than ordinary people, and it's not that they don't hurt.

"You must be confused why there are more than 3,000 people missing. "That's because Rosie gave me a suggestion before, I think it's good to try it." The people of Lerea are very smart, they have given up fighting with us, lost the city to us, and made us passive. So we have to turn the passive into the active, and there is only one way, and that is to force the Lerea people to fight us. How do you get them out? Rosie taught me one method, and that was to burn the mountain. ”

When the bald head said that he was burning the mountain, the faces of many generals changed. They are not the scholars who spend their days drinking or the officials who don't know the grain, they understand the horror of wildfires better. A wildfire is easy to ignite, but extremely difficult to extinguish, and once ignited, it would be a disaster, both for the people of Leria and for the people of Jeruth.

The bald head knew what these people were afraid of, and he laughed twice, "With Leria City as the center, light a ring of fire, the fire will make the forest that Lerians rely on as a barrier disappear, and it will also drive away the beasts and demonic beasts in the mountains." At that time, as long as they don't want to be torn apart by the monsters and used as food, it is imperative to snatch a place where they can preserve their power. And this location is the city of Leria.

The city was high enough and strong enough that they didn't want to die, so they came to attack it. Once they do come, it's not up to us to decide how to fight?"

The bald head is a little proud, and this method is really in line with his heart.

Since you have lost the city to us, then you should not think about it, and it must be very happy to force you to attack your own city.

A general asked: "What about the wildfires?" Once the wildfires break out, several nearby mountains may be affected. The people of Leria are unlucky, and I'm afraid we won't be happy. ”

The bald head glanced at Rosie, who immediately stepped forward and explained.

If there is a place where arson and devastating fires are likely to occur, it is not the mountains and forests, but the grasslands. Especially in the grasslands in winter, the cold air draws a lot of water from the branches and leaves of the plants, and once it burns, with the help of strong winds, it is easy to burn the entire grassland to ashes. On Earth, thousands of years of wisdom have given people the best way to deal with such widespread fires.

First, there are two separation zones, divide the grassland into three parts, and then ignite the one in the middle of the two separation zones. The fire burned relatively, extracting a large amount of air and creating a crazy upward diversion layer, so that the wind could not continue to roll the heat and sparks to carry the flame farther away, and in an instant it could stop the spread of the flames and keep the flames firmly within a controllable range. When the fire in the middle of the two zones burned out, the fire came to an end. During this period, it is enough to pay attention to the grassland in the third part of the country.

In the face of wildfires, this approach still works, and it works well. Because the trees themselves contain far more water than dead grass. There is a tendency for wildfires to spread before they can ignite combustible trees in the vicinity of the fire.

Once the two barriers are opened, the spread of the wildfire can be stopped in an instant. As long as the wildfires don't spread, there will be a time for them to stop.

Rossi explained very carefully, but unfortunately most of these generals were rough people, and they were even more confused after listening to the explanation. But regardless of whether this method really worked, at least at this moment, they all felt that what Rossi said was really high-end.

While they were talking, the soldiers who had straddled behind had already arrived at the various ignition points as Rossi had requested. At the same time, several heroes also began to get busy. They traveled everywhere and lit the fires.

Starting with a pile of leaves, then a tree, then several trees, and finally the flames joined together.

The first to feel the ferocity and apocalyptic devastating nature of the wildfires are always the native creatures, who leave their territory in terror and run wildly in the opposite direction of the wildfires. Animals have the property of fearing fire, and at the same time they are afraid of fire, when the fire is small, they will revolve around the fire, and when the fire is big, they will only have fear left. They don't have the cleverness to rush directly through the not yet fierce flames, and can only dodge the flames by instinct.

The creatures that had left their territory were chasing after each other, and if one had a bird's-eye view of the entire mountainous area from thousands of kilometers at this time, they would have found that the city of Leria was surrounded by a huge ring of fire.

At the same time, the people of Leria, who had been driven out of the city, began to build their first barrier.

It often takes a day to three days from the discovery of wildfires to their outbreak, and they have enough time to complete the construction of the three barriers, after all, the city of Leria is not a city on earth, and millions of people live in it at every turn. A small city, with a diameter of only two kilometers and a circumference of five or six kilometers, more than 20,000 people working at the same time, plus the presence of heroes, can build a barrier belt twenty or thirty meters wide in one day.

Because of the cover of the army, and the fear that a bold attack would lead to the Jeruts killing prisoners, the Lereas watched from afar, watching what tricks the Jeruts were trying to play.

But it was precisely because of their hesitation and hesitation that they missed the last opportunity.

The fire is coming!

========

I can't bear to have some friends who like to think too much, so I'll explain. The reason why the Lerea did not attack the Jeruts and their captives while they were repairing the barrier was because the Lereas thought that the Jeruts would leave soon. They put their main force on the road out of the mountain, believing that they could destroy the enemy as much as possible on this road. So what they have to do at this time is not to provoke, but to wait for the Jeruts to have nothing to do with them, and finally abandon the city.

The Lerea were not a race that was good at frontal combat, and as it was said in the previous wars of Leria, it was the heroes who resisted Jeruth, not the cavalry and soldiers. At the same time, their population is pitifully small compared to Jerut, and those in power will not spend the population on retaliatory attacks. Coupled with the vigilance and vigilance of the Yeruts, the sneak attack became even more difficult.
