When the hundreds of rockets shot rapidly towards their own array, the thousands of Wei troops did not panic.

They are well-trained and experienced Great Wei Heavenly Soldiers.

Thousands of generals in the Wei army shouted out the order almost immediately.

And when those commands spread throughout the phalanx of thousands of Wei troops, thousands of Wei soldiers who had already been mentally prepared raised their shields above their heads.

These thousands of Wei soldiers firmly believed that with a shield wrapped in raw cowhide, they could easily block the flames that fell from the sky.

Guo Huai and the other Wei generals, who saw this scene, also believed in it.

When hundreds of sparse rockets fell into the phalanx of thousands of Wei troops, only some of them were shot at the shields held high in the hands of Wei troops.

And when those rockets touched the shield in Wei Jun's hand, they fell straight to the ground like a weak kite in an instant.

Originally, things had developed to this point, and everything did not exceed the expectations of the Wei army.

It's a pity that a fatal accident is about to sweep over the thousands of Wei troops.

Among the hundreds of rockets, many of them directly crossed the gap between the Wei army's shield walls and landed on the ground because of accuracy problems.

According to common sense, when an arrow with a flame touches the ground, it doesn't take long for the flame on the arrow to go out automatically.

After all, the technology of extracting fire oil in this era is still very backward, and the flammability of fire oil with low purity is not very good.

But when the flame that was supposed to disappear touched the stone grease flowing under the feet of the Wei army, a great change occurred that all the Wei soldiers did not expect.

What happens when oil meets fire?

Almost instantly, many streams of fire rose from the feet of the Wei army.

This scene is beyond the cognition of all Wei Jun.

Therefore, when many fires suddenly and violently ignited on the ground and climbed towards them at a very fast speed, many Wei troops were still a little overwhelmed by the scene in front of them.

But the sharp pain that came from their bodies next made the thousands of Wei soldiers come back to their senses all at once.

After regaining their senses, many Wei troops relied on their instincts to survive and began to flee around the mountain road.

Some of the fast-running Wei troops were the first to flee from the center of the flames, and then they quickly fell to the ground and rolled over, trying to extinguish the raging fire on their bodies.

Unfortunately, this method does not apply to oil-induced fires.

After the bottles and cans thrown by the Han army just now burst on the ground, it was inevitable that most of the Wei troops present were contaminated with some oil.

Although there are only a few, this is also enough.

Many Wei soldiers who were rolling on the ground found that their rolling not only did not extinguish the flames on their bodies, but on the contrary, because of the constant churning of the air, they even fueled the flames on their bodies.

It didn't take long, just a few breaths later, the more and more fierce fire enveloped all those Wei troops in an instant.

The sizzling sound was accompanied by the wails of countless Wei troops, constantly resounding in the deep Gushan mountain road.

In addition to the scalp-tingling sound, the smell of burning also wafted out in the breeze in all directions.

When the smell of burning wafted into the noses of the Han and Wei armies, many people's bodies naturally had a nausea reaction.

It was not the flesh of the beast that was burned, but a living human being!

And all this, in the eyes of others, almost only happened in an instant.

In the last moment, the Wei army was still majestic and wanted to capture the Han army camp.

At this moment, the Wei army was like a roast chicken, constantly tormenting in the boundless flames.

Because all this happened too fast and too unreasonable, Guo Huai looked a little sluggish after seeing all this.

What is that black paste?

For the first time, fear appeared in Guo Huai's heart.

Because of the fear in his heart, what Guo Huai didn't notice was that at some point, the drumstick in his hand fell heavily to the ground because of his loss of strength.

When the heavy drumsticks landed on the table at Guo Huai's feet, there was a heavy muffled sound.

This muffled sound was like the lament of the Wei army at this moment, constantly invading the hearts of the other generals on the nest car.

Guo Huai was afraid of something, how could they not be afraid?

Originally, they gathered with Guo Huai on the nest car today to watch how brave their tiger warriors were.

But now it's them watching how their sons and daughters are being attacked by the raging fire.

How sad and sad this is!

However, Guo Huai is worthy of being a person who has seen the world, and he is the first person to react among the Wei generals on the nest car.

He saw that there were still many Wei soldiers in the Gugu Valley Road calling for help in the flames, and he immediately issued an order:

"Help, save with water!"

Even if it takes countless amounts of water, it is necessary to use water to make an escape channel for the surviving Wei army!

Because at this moment, the Wei army in the mountain road is all elite soldiers.

Guo Huai's order soon spread to the bottom, and after receiving Guo Huai's order, there was immediately a general commanding the auxiliary soldiers to push and carry carts full of water to the mountain road.

Nearly 100,000 people live in Guo Huai's camp, and the water reserves in his camp are certainly very rich.

It's just that when the carts loaded with buckets entered the mountain road, the advancing auxiliaries soon found that they had no way to continue moving.

At this time, the raging flames almost completely enveloped the area where thousands of Wei troops were located.

The boiling fire shines brightly on the originally deep mountain road.

Similarly, the mountain road is also very hot and dry at this moment.

It's as if the scorching sun in the sky has fallen into this mountain road.

In such a sinister environment, where can people be involved?

There was no way, and the captain who commanded the auxiliaries could only let the auxiliaries pour water on this periphery first.

What the captain thought was that when the fire on the periphery was extinguished by water, he was directing the auxiliaries to push the waterwheel deeper and deeper.

But what the captain didn't expect was that when a large amount of water was poured on the flames on the ground, not only did the flames not go out, but they burned more and more vigorously as if they had been helped!

In the past, no matter how strong the flame was, as long as there was a large amount of water, it could always be extinguished.

But now?

The water he brought didn't extinguish the fire, but it would also fuel the fire, which was enough to destroy the scene of the three views, and the captain's mentality exploded directly.

When people in the world encounter things that cannot be explained by common sense, they usually think about ghosts and gods.

At this time, the lieutenant felt that the fire in front of him was not a mortal fire, but a release from the gods.

Thinking of this, the fear in the captain's heart invaded his reason, and without even thinking about it, he left a group of auxiliaries and ran towards the rear camp.

When the lieutenant fled, the auxiliaries were no longer under their control, and they all dispersed in a hurry, and they fled towards the rear in general without their lives.

So not long after, Guo Huai's method to save his regular soldiers was completely unsuccessful.

Without the school captain to reply, Guo Huai, who was standing tall on top of the nest car, saw this strange scene.

Not only did he see it, but the Wei generals behind him also saw it.

After seeing this scene, most of the people in the nest car had the same thoughts as the Wei military captain.

Could it be that the heavens have not abandoned the Han family, and the Han army has really received the help of the gods?

As soon as this thought came to mind, many Wei soldiers couldn't help but be startled.

If that's the case, then they?

At this moment, the Wei army in the mountain road was suffering from the invasion of flames on their bodies.

And these Wei generals on the nest car also seem to have a wildfire in their hearts, which is constantly tormenting their hearts.

Guo Huai quickly sensed the abnormality of the Wei generals.

With his own life, Guo Huai guessed what these Wei generals were thinking at this time.

Heaven is still on the side of the Han family?

Guo Huai didn't believe in this idea at all.

If this is the case, when the first emperor was called the king, and now the emperor is the emperor, why didn't the heavens send down a thunderbolt and directly kill them?

If there are really ghosts and gods in the world who overlook living beings, then for thousands of years, there have been constant wars in China, and countless dead and injured people, why don't they take action to stabilize the situation?

Since the saints are not superstitious about ghosts and gods, how can Guo Huai, who is a son of Confucianism, be gullible?

Guo Huai only believes in humanity!

Guo Huai knew that the reason why such a strange situation happened today was not because of the ethereal ghosts and gods, but because of the paste that he had never seen before.

There are no wonders in the world, and there is really a flammable substance that he has never seen, and what is so strange.

It's just that the emotions of the subordinates also need to be appeased, otherwise if they are allowed to think wildly, the morale of the army will be affected.

"If the Han army really has divine help, why does Ma Chao have to risk the great threat to guard this solid mountain road?

Isn't it normal to directly use the power of ghosts and gods to destroy our army? ”

When Guo Huai's words spread all over the nest car, Wei Jiang on the nest car was awakened by Guo Huai's words.

This reason is very simple, but the Wei generals did not expect this because they were panicking about the authorities in their hearts.

Now when someone woke them up, they all dispelled the panic in their hearts.

After regaining their composure, General Wei soon stepped forward to ask Guo Huai what they should do next.

How?

Hearing this inquiry, a nameless fire erupted in Guo Huai's heart.

What else can be done, if you don't withdraw at this time, do you continue to send regular soldiers in to send them to death?

Guo Huai looked at the somewhat distorted area in the distance that was faintly burned by the flames, and he knew that the thousands of Wei troops in that area could not be saved.

After knowing this, Guo Huai decisively gave the order for Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

Since it can't be saved, Guo Huai won't waste any more vitality to save it.

It's just that after the order was issued, General Guo's heart inevitably surfaced with heartache and anger.

Even the Han army's camp wall was not touched, and thousands of regular soldiers were lost.

This loss is not insignificant.

Most importantly, this loss is a strong proof that Ma Chao has solved the dilemma he has set.

Ma Mengqi, there is really you!

When Ming Jin withdrew his troops in the Wei army's camp, another order from Guo Huai spread throughout the army soon after.

The whole army retreated three miles!

Who knows if that weird demon fire will burn all the way to your own camp with the help of the wind?

Until you find out where the paste came from, it's always a good idea to be careful.

Ma Chao stood on the camp wall, with calm eyes, watching thousands of Wei troops wailing and being devoured by continuous fires.

Soon after, the wailing of thousands of Wei soldiers gradually stopped.

Under such a blazing flame, it was difficult for one of the thousands of Wei troops to survive.

In just one battle, thousands of Wei troops were easily annihilated, and such a result was remarkable.

But Ma Chao did not have a happy look in his eyes, of course, he was not like Guo Huai, who had regret and pain in his heart.

After all, all those who are consumed by the fire are his enemies.

At this moment, Ma Chao remembered many Wei army auxiliaries who were also killed in that area yesterday.

Different identities, but in the same place, got the same end.

When you think about it, it's kind of ironic.

The paste he asked the Han army to throw just now is called stone grease in some places in Liangzhou.

Stone grease is a natural creature between heaven and earth, they float to the surface of the water and are very flammable.

People in some places in Liangzhou often use stone grease as a simple lighting object.

It's just that because the stone grease is not easy to collect, there are very few people in Liangzhou who know about it.

Even though Ma Chao's family has lived in Liangzhou for hundreds of years and has a deep-rooted influence in Liangzhou, he also heard about it by chance.

At that time, Ma Chao's heart was undecided, and after hearing about it, he felt that this thing was quite magical, so he ordered someone to collect some.

I didn't expect it to come in handy today.

However, Ma Dai suggested that he use the stone grease as an oil oil, and without Ma Dai's reminder, he would not have achieved today's victory.

Thinking of this, Ma Chao planned to write a battle report to Mi Yang, informing Mi Yang of Ma Dai's performance in this battle.

If Ma Dai can be appreciated by Mi Yang, Ma Dai will have a stable backer in the Han Dynasty in the future.

Of course, if you want to mention Ma Dai's contributions, the existence of stone resin must also be mentioned to Mi Yang.

After all, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Ma Chao wouldn't have believed that the stone grease would have so much power when it encountered an open flame.

However, Ma Chao felt that Mi Yang should not be interested in such an item as stone resin, and after Mi Yang became a famous family, he should not be interested in these strange and obscene skills.

After seeing that there was no other movement of the Wei army, Ma Chao asked Ma Dai to stay on the camp wall, and then he walked down the camp wall himself.

The Liangzhou military on the camp wall watched Ma Chao leave with adoring eyes.

It was Ma Chao who led them just now and won the victory again.

The two consecutive victories were enough for Ma Chao to establish his own prestige in the hearts of the Liangzhou army.

But when Ma Chao just returned to his big tent, he got a bad news.

Mi Yang's messenger arrived.

The reason why Ma Chao felt that the arrival of Mi Yang's envoy was not a good thing, was because he knew that Mi Yang would not send an envoy if he had nothing to do.

Especially when he didn't report any of the fighting.

The sudden arrival of Mi Yang's envoy must have been because of his move of leading the army into Wudu County, and he was played to Mi Yang by Zhang Wei.

Will Mi Yang approve of his move?

Ma Chao has no confidence.

After all, there is a difference between intimacy and intimacy, Zhang Wei is Mi Yang's confidant, and Mi Yang must believe Zhang Wei's words more emotionally.

If Mi Yang is disgusted with him because of Zhang Wei's playing.

Under heavy worries, Ma Chao summoned Mi Yang's envoy.

The messenger was Lu Yi.

Well, Lu Yi was one of the people who looked down on Ma Chao the most under Mi Yang in the past.

Seeing that it was Lu Yi, a square gentleman, who arrived, Ma Chao's worry became more and more intense.

His past has almost made him a thorn in the side of all gentlemen in the world.

Mi Yang's attitude seems obvious.
