Chapter Thirty-Nine, Burning

Zhang Fei fought back, but he was no match for the Yellow Turbans and was defeated.

After Zhang Bao arrived with a large army, he could only retreat with the remnants of the cavalry.

Guan Yu led the army to ambush halfway, but he was still outnumbered and defeated again.

Along the way, you can see discarded military flags, weapons, grain and grass...... It can be seen that the official army was embarrassed by the rout.

"Sure enough, the army was already defeated, so we continued to pursue and capture Guo Jia alive."

Zhang Bao had no worries in his heart, a rout army could not organize an effective attack.

Zhang Ning followed closely beside him, always feeling that this seemed reasonable, and everything was a little strange.

Hiss~

She suddenly smelled a strange smell.

Raising his eyes and looking around, he found that the army had entered a narrow valley at this time, and the distance between the left and right was only seven or eight feet, as if it was squeezed by two mountains.

If the front and back roads are blocked......

A terrible thought surged in Zhang Ning's heart.

Bang!

At this moment, a loud thunderous bang accompanied by a sense of vibration in the ground, mixed with screams.

Bang bang bang......

The same sound followed, like the mountains on both sides trembling, and like a heavy object falling from a high place.

Zhang Bao tightened the horse's rope violently and said in a deep voice: "What's the matter? ”

A moment later, a general hurried in.

"General Yudi Gong, a boulder has fallen from the cliff, blocking the way of our army's advance, and his subordinates are ordering people to clear it."

Zhang Bao frowned, subconsciously thinking that this was Guo Jia's means to block their pursuit, and at this moment, a smell entered his nostrils.

This is...... The taste of fire oil.

He suddenly had a sense of foreboding.

At this time, Zhang Ning shouted: "Uncle, quickly order the withdrawal of the army." ”

The veil had slipped off her face, exposing her beautiful face to the air, but she ignored it, her face full of panic.

"General Digong, it's not good, a boulder has fallen from the rear, cutting off our connection with the rear army."

Guan Hai rode his horse and told him another bad news.

When Zhang Bao heard this, his heart sank to the bottom in an instant, and he could only secretly pray that it would not be what he thought in his heart, because that was the worst outcome.

"Kill the man to clear the way, !! quickly"

When he said the last word, Zhang Bao's face was hideous, and the green tendons on his forehead burst fiercely.

But there was a lost voice in my ears.

"Uncle, it's too late......"

This is Zhang Ning's voice.

Zhang Bao and the surrounding soldiers raised their heads one after another.

On the cliff, fires lit up, dispelling the night overhead.

There is a way: keep the clouds open and see the moon.

However, this fire brought endless despair.

Something fell from the cliff, it was rockets, torches, fireballs......

Although summer is not as dry and flammable as autumn, under Guo Jia's careful arrangement, this valley is like a grumpy furnace.

Zhang Ning felt the increasingly hot temperature, and the soldiers who fled wailing around him slipped two lines of tears in their eyes.

"Guo Fengxiao, you are so ruthless."

She knew that war was merciless, but it was still chilling to slaughter an army in such a way.

……

Guo Jia stood on the cliff, looking at the endless sea of fire in the valley below, and there was no happiness in his heart that his plan would succeed.

"This fire is already strong enough, and there is no need to add more firewood."

Didn't you tell us to put it?

Zhang Fei was depressed, the plan was you came up with, and now I have become a wicked person.

However, when he saw that the military adviser was in a low mood, he did not speak, but signaled the soldiers to stop.

Guo Jia looked at Su Zhe beside him again: "You did a good job, you should make a big credit." ”

Su Zhe has not followed the army since he joined the army, but led people to arrange here day and night, and he worked hard for half a month just for tonight.

Now is the time to reap the rewards.

Su Zhe's mood was a little heavy, and for the first time, he realized that the trap set by only a few dozen people could slaughter tens of thousands of people.

Strictly speaking, he is also an executor.

Guo Jia was not the only one who was depressed, Liu Bei sat on a smooth stone, looked at the purgatory-like scene below, listened to the wails all over the mountains, and the whole person fell into memory.

At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the Battle of Yiling.

At that time, he was also like Zhang Bao at this moment, powerless, sad, and desperate......

Guan Yu on the side thought that he was blaming himself for his cruel methods, so he comforted: "Big brother, there will inevitably be casualties in battlefield battles. ”

Liu Bei pulled out a smile in front of him, but he didn't know how to pour out his thoughts.

At this time, Guo Jia came head-on.

"Can Yun Chang know why Zhang Bao suffered such a big defeat?"

Guan Yu was puzzled, but still replied: "Because he is greedy and reckless, he ignores the terrain." ”

Guo Jia shook his head: "Yes and no." ”

Guan Yu knew that the other party was going to remind him of something, if it was someone else, he would definitely ignore it, but Guo Jia's intelligence had convinced him.

"Please give me advice."

"He made a mistake, a fatal mistake that a general should not have made."

"What's wrong?"

"Let your emotions influence your decision-making."

Guo Jia immediately began to talk eloquently.

"As a general, even if you can't be unhappy or angry, you should keep your mind and deal with it with a calm heart,"

When the two armies first met, he was afraid to defeat the Yingchuan Yellow Turban because he had defeated the Yingchuan Yellow Turban. After breaking through our army camp, he was complacent, despised our army, and stepped into a dangerous place. ”

"This is the reason for Zhang Bao's defeat."

After Guan Yu savored it, he found that these words did indeed tell the reason for Zhang Bao's defeat.

"A certain ...... Taught. ”

He knew that Guo Jia was alluding to his arrogant character and easy to despise others.

Liu Bei listened quietly, and said in his heart: If Kong Ming could also teach Yun Chang like this in his previous life, maybe Jingzhou would not be lost.

But he immediately put aside his thoughts, and the old dreams of the past were like a cloud of smoke, and he should remember the mistakes he made in his previous life, but he should not dwell on them.

In the valley below, flames are still burning, mercilessly slaughtering lives.

Guan Hai was directing the soldiers to clear the boulders blocking the way, but under the influence of the fire, the problem that could have been solved quickly became extremely difficult at this time.

Some people rushed into the fire without hesitation, but they turned to ashes when they did everything.

On the other side of the stone wall, Bocai and his soldiers were also doing their best to rescue.

He was in command of the rear army, and a boulder fell from the sky to break his army from the front army, so he was lucky not to set foot in that Jedi.

After a few hours, the fire subsided slightly, and Bo finally succeeded in opening a path.

However, the Yellow Turban soldiers in the valley have long been in chaos, their minds are lost, and they are no longer controlled by military orders, competing with each other, trampling and killing countless people.

People in desperate situations will always try their best to grasp the hope of survival when they see it.

"Big brother, military advisor, are you chasing and killing the Yellow Turban Army?"

"No need, after today, this army has lost the courage to fight. They are innocent people, let them live! ”

"Listen to the military advisor."
