Li Zicheng held the whip in one hand and the reins in the other, trying his best to control the war horse under the seat that was panicked by the firelight.

The lights in the direction of Dongcheng suddenly dimmed, and two fire dragons suddenly appeared under the night sky.

The sound of cries, screams, and horses' hooves swept over abruptly, accompanied by the sound of war drums and trumpets.

There had already been a change in Dongcheng, but Li Zicheng's attention was not on Dongcheng at all.

Because, there is one thing that is far more important in the west than in the east of the battlefield.

The blazing flames in the west reflected almost the entire sky, and the direction of the rear camp was as bright as day.

The sound of a loud explosion rolled along with the sky-high fire, like the rolling thunder before a rainstorm fell.

The flames danced in Li Zicheng's eyes, and the huge fire red reflected Li Zicheng's eyes and Li Zicheng's face.

There was chaos in all directions, and this terrible scene made everyone panic uncontrollably.

Li Zicheng's heart was cold. The fire started in the direction of the rear camp, which was obviously the safest place in the entire Chunhua territory.

The Ming army in Chunhua City was obviously surrounded in the city, and the lights in the front camp were not extinguished, and there was no appearance of being attacked.

But now the rear camp is on fire, and the Ming army in Chunhua City has long wings, flew over the mountains, and went around to the back camp?

Even if it really grew wings and went around to the rear camp, there were nearly 20,000 people in the two armies of the rear camp.

Just when Li Zicheng's mind was in a hurry, an extremely dull sound of trumpets and cannons burst from the south.

Immediately after that, a series of cannons sounded on the city wall again, and the gate of the northern city suddenly opened.

Behind the city gate, a group of Ming soldiers holding swords and shields and wearing armor brazenly slaughtered out of the city, instantly dispersing several surrounding military formations.

In just a moment, Li Zicheng didn't even react to what was happening.

The situation on the entire battlefield has changed completely.

Li Zicheng opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say.

There was chaos all around, and the noise, the noise, the neighing of horses, and the sound of stomping on the ground all rushed towards his head.

It disturbed Li Zicheng's mind and his mind was difficult to clear.

The explosions in the camp to the west were incessant, and the fire intensified, not only louder, but also wider.

Although the drought in Shaanxi has eased slightly, there is still not much rainfall.

The weather has been sunny for the past few days, and there has not been much rain.

The structure of the camp is mainly wooden tents, and most of the old and weak camps are self-governed, with only a small number of infantry teams for fighting and commotion.

As for camping and setting up a village, there is nothing particular about it at all, it is all done indiscriminately.

In the camp, the layout is chaotic and dry, which is helping the fire.

The fire was fierce and swept away in all directions to the west.

Countless burned-out dust was swept up by the heat wave, and then rose into the air with a strong northwest wind.

Under the reflection of the fire, the originally dark night sky was illuminated, and the sky was like a dusk and sunset, like a scene of the end of the world.

Everyone was shocked by the horrific scene.

Not only Li Zicheng, who was supervising the battle in Beicheng, but even Gao Jie, who lit the first fire with his own hands, was so frightened that he couldn't even stand firmly.

"How...... It's going to make such a big move......"

Gao Jie's hands trembled, and the fire under the foothills reflected his face red.

Xing Shi held Gao Jie's right arm, and his eyes were full of fear, but he was much calmer than Gao Jie, at least she still maintained her due calm.

At the beginning, the sentinels of the officers and soldiers infiltrated the camp, found Gao Jie, and after testing, confirmed that it was really the officers and soldiers in Chunhua City.

She knew that the opportunity had come, so she persuaded Gao Jie and expressed her willingness to cooperate with the Ming army.

The logistics were all in charge of the Xing family, and the gunpowder was also classified as ordnance by Li Zicheng.

In the past few days, the Xing clan has been arranging ordnance, grain and grass to pile them together as much as possible, and has found various reasons to prepare things for fire.

Then until today, after seeing the beacon fire and signal ignited in Chunhua City, Xing and Gao Jie immediately took action.

Gao Jie also has more than a dozen die-hard cronies, all of whom are child soldiers, and they are Gao Jie's adopted sons, most of whom are seventeen or eighteen years old.

The cultivation of cronies among the rogues is more direct than that of the generals of the Ming army, or they are fellow villagers.

Either they are directly selected from among those orphans, and a child who is still young but has a good physique, and accepts him as a adopted son and a cronie.

Later, the townsmen were basically sent out to be officers, and the guards all used their righteous sons, and their loyalty was sufficiently guaranteed.

The stakes are big, and once it is leaked, you can't survive or die.

Gao Jie couldn't even trust those cronies who followed him from the beginning, he only believed in these righteous sons he raised since childhood.

The moon was dark and the wind was high, and the battle at the front did not affect the rear camp, and a large number of ignitions were ignited in a short time.

Gao Jie and Xing had already fled all the way to the mountains with the sentinels who came to pick up the Ming army.

They had barely reached the halfway point of the mountain when the sound of explosions was heard.

The storehouse where the gunpowder was stored was ignited, causing a massive explosion that sent crimson flames almost into the air.

If it weren't for the camp and the construction of ladders, the trees on both sides of the camp would have been cut down, and the fire would have spread to the mountains on both sides.

In the camp at the foot of the mountain, a series of mournful cries were heard, and the entire camp was completely thrown into chaos.

Most of the people were still asleep, and the sudden explosion and the huge fire woke them up, causing chaos in the camp.

How could such a big fire be saved, no one was stupid enough to fetch water to put out the fire, everyone ran in the opposite direction.

Whether it is a soldier or a citizen, there is only one thought - escape!

All order, all discipline disappeared from everyone's minds, and everyone only thought about running for their lives.

The elderly, the weak, women and children are vulnerable in the crowd, the crowd is crowded, people are constantly falling to the ground, and people are constantly disappearing into the torrent.

The company camp at the foot of the mountain is like a hell on earth, in which countless people struggle desperately, but in the end they can't escape death.

The more chaotic and crowded it is, the more disorderly it will be, and the more difficult it will be to escape.

The fire has become a prairie fire, and it is rapidly spreading to all sides, and people are constantly being engulfed in flames.

Gao Jie's heart was cold, and his whole body was cold.

The fire he had laid down with his own hands was dozens of times greater than the chaos and destruction he had imagined.
