Chapter 280: Flames Shine in the Sky

The soldiers at the back of the retreating army cheered when they saw the cavalry in jet-black armor and red cherry blossoms on their heads rushing over. They knew that this was created by Gongzi, the Iron Rider of the Megatron Continent. At this time, seeing that the cavalry army was chasing after the front army that was chasing them, they did not retreat again. Then there was the cheers of the entire army, and only after everyone made a clear fuss did they know that Gongzi personally led the troops to arrive.

When everyone rested on the spot according to Childe's instructions, a follow-up supply force sent dinner and military tents after a while, saying that after everyone rested on the spot, they would fight the opponent tomorrow. While everyone was talking, the army surrounding the lonely mountain was ready, and the five-story stone thrower inside and outside began to launch at the foot of the mountain below the lonely mountain. The soldiers on the other side were all on the hill far away from the foot of the mountain, and everyone laughed at this, and these stone throwers were useless, so they could only throw things at the foot of the mountain. After a while, the catapult adjusted the angle again, and then it was able to throw things a little higher, and then the angle was adjusted again, this time close to the edge of the garrison. After a while, the stone thrower had already hit the heads of the peripheral troops, and then the soldiers found that what was thrown up was not a stone, but a clay pot, some of which fell to the ground, and some of which fell to the big tree next to it, without exception, as soon as the clay pot hit the ground or touched the tree, it immediately broke into a pile, and all that splashed out of it was a large puddle of liquid with a pungent smell. The rock-throwing machine then threw the pots all the way up the mountainside. At this time, the commander on the mountain was also alarmed, walked out of his military tent, and watched what the soldiers were doing so noisy, at this time a pungent smell rushed over, the general casually looked down the mountain, only to see the cavalry under the mountain holding torches, under the reflection of the torches, the infantry had prepared their bows and arrows, and when the general did not know what kind of trick the opponent was playing, a terrible arrow came from the direction of the capital, and the sound resounded in the air. At this time, I only heard a shout from the bottom of the mountain: "Gongzi ordered the arrow to arrive, release the arrow." When the general heard the son, he felt bad in his heart, and said in his heart: Could it be that this goblin is really here. Then he looked at the small note in his hand, which clearly said that Gongzi was still in the imperial city, although it was only transmitted three days ago, but he couldn't get here in the past three days. Just when the general was wondering, he saw the soldiers under the mountain lean the arrows in their hands on the torches, and then a fire ignited on the arrows, and the soldiers opened their bows and shot arrows. Shooting the flaming arrows at the foot of the mountain, a fire began to ignite at the foot of the mountain as a dense rocket like a meteor on all sides, and along with the fire, it spread rapidly towards the mountain. In the blink of an eye, the entire Lonely Mountain was shrouded in a sea of fire, and the fire was going upward, and after a while, the entire Lonely Mountain became a very huge bonfire. The screams from the mountain at this time were earth-shattering, and the fire of the entire lonely mountain lit up the entire night sky. The sky was red all night. At this time, the leading general of the Eastern Front was in his own barracks, telling the generals and soldiers beside him about Gongzi's arrangements and strategies, when a general asked: "How to deal with these large armies in the Eastern Capital and the Lonely Mountain." It cost a lot of soldiers' lives. The general said: "When attacking Gushan, I will be the first to attack before, and as a soldier we will go out." As he spoke, he heard the cry that shook the heavens and the earth. Just when everyone didn't know what to do, they saw that the lonely mountain standing high in the distance had become a natural bonfire. Looking at the sky-high fire that illuminated all around him, the general only understood at this time. What Childe said was worried that they wouldn't go up the mountain, and couldn't help but be secretly frightened, this Childe was too terrible, and this million-strong army was completely solved with such a fire. Thinking about it, I thought it was a big mistake to give up this lonely mountain, but I didn't expect that just now I also said that I would be the first to attack the lonely mountain, who wants to become this ending in a blink of an eye, in an instant, the general's whole face was like rain, and he said: If I lead the troops, then it must be me who will cry and howl wolf.

Xiao Jiu's aunt and uncle, since they heard that the army was defeated and came back, they began to spend their worries and anxiety, and when they heard that Xiao Jiu went to the gate of the capital, the two quietly followed, and when they looked at the army that was being chased back, the two of them suddenly felt cold in their hearts. The two of them didn't complain about Xiao Jiu's meaning at all, knowing that Xiao Jiu had just arrived, and they couldn't undo the situation that had formed at this time. Just when my uncle was thinking about how to give up the capital, he heard Xiao Jiu issue an order, and as the order was issued, when the drums and trumpets sounded, the earth-shaking sound and figure of the cavalry made the two of them suddenly refreshed, and when they saw the unique and strange handsome flag raised, the cheers of the soldiers under the capital made the two of them envious. Even in his own army, his uncle, who was the king, was not so popular with the soldiers. I saw Xiao Jiu's hand wave, and the soldiers below were suddenly silent, Xiao Jiu asked the soldiers to pass the word, and asked the generals to come to him to report, the soldiers agreed, and then began to cheer one by one. At this time, my aunt asked my uncle: "What do you think of Xiao Jiu's prestige in the army?" The uncle said: "There is no one before, I didn't expect such a half-sized doll to be so trusted and supported by the army, which is really rare." The only thing I'm worried about is that the other party's troops are too large, according to Xiao Jiu, the other party's troops will exceed two million, and in this case, if you want to win this big battle, I'm afraid the hope is still very slim. I couldn't help but sigh helplessly as I spoke.

My aunt also looked at Xiao Jiu in the distance, and also sighed: "This is really difficult for this child." Regardless of the final outcome, I admit it. ”

While the two were talking, they heard the exclamations of the soldiers under the city, and looked up to see that the distant lonely mountain began to burn into a fire, and then gradually turned into a skyrocketing fire. The two turned their heads to look at the generals inquiringly, and then an older general stood up and said, "The emperor and empress, that's the case. At that time, when we heard that the generals of the Eastern Front were in a hurry to withdraw to the capital because of the arrow, we all thought that we had completely lost this battle, and anyone with a little military vision of this lonely mountain could see its important military position. The other party must also know this, so he will definitely seize Gushan, which falls into Childe's calculations. We have just roughly discussed and calculated, this fire will bury at least a million soldiers of the other side, such a delicate arrangement, such a terrible calculation, a means that even the ghosts and gods are frightened. As he spoke, he wiped the cold sweat on his head. The two looked at the generals behind them who all changed their faces, and the two of them did not fully understand at this time, they turned their heads and still looked at the fire, and then saw the cavalry army that rushed back, and then the two of them came back to their senses, and the aunt exclaimed: "Oh my God, this fire is actually ......." Saying that, he looked at his uncle, and when he saw his uncle nodding, his aunt muttered: "This Xiao Jiu, how can he do such a black hand, this is a million people." The uncle said: "The means are frightening, but if it weren't for this means, it would be us who might be finished, and this is war." ”

At this time, Xiao Jiu said to the generals of the cavalry and infantry who had just rushed back: "You have done a good job and cooperated very well, congratulations." Now you have to rest, tomorrow's big battle, your task is like this. As he spoke, he turned around and came to the terrain plate that the women behind him had already made, pointed to the terrain and said, "The battlefield we have chosen is to let them lengthen the length of the military formation, reduce the width of the two sides, and create conditions for your assault. Your cavalry inserted from here, attacked on both sides at the same time, attacked directly in front of the opponent's command post in a diagonal line, took the heads of their commander and the generals around them, and attacked from behind with their heads. Finally, clean up the battlefield, and after receiving the infantry in the eastern capital, drive directly to the westernmost pass of the three passes, where you will rest, and I will come later. The task of the infantry is to attack in a straight line with the cavalry after entering the opponent's military formation, form a rock formation in the center of the opponent's military formation, and wait for the cavalry to return to the eastern capital as soon as possible to solve the enemy attacking the eastern capital, where the cavalry will wait to respond, and rush to the westernmost pass to rest together. Then he said to the cavalry general: "I have two letters here, and when you turn in the eastern capital, you will send cavalry to deliver these two letters to the two passes in the east and the middle." After several generals received the order to leave, they waited for a while, and the general of the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Front led a large group of generals into the gate of the capital, and Xiao Jiu turned around and walked down the city gate to welcome the arrival of these generals. When everyone came to the city gate, Xiao Jiu said to the general of the Eastern Front: "This time you have worked hard, general, you have performed this play really well, and you are the first to take credit this time." The general shook his head and said, "Childe must not say this, this is all carried out according to Childe's arrangement." "The generals around me also said that the general could act, and they all deceived them, and I really thought that the general was sick with anger. After everyone finished speaking, the general said: "Childe, just say something, tomorrow's decisive battle will be fought by us, otherwise we will not have a chance to raise our heads." The surrounding generals also nodded.

Xiao Jiu smiled and said, "Okay, tomorrow's decisive battle will be handed over to you." From the deployment of troops to the end of the battlefield, I will not say a word, and I will leave it all to you. I believe in your abilities and the combat effectiveness of your soldiers. However, there is a task, that is, to win the big battle, to send the three-way army to take over the defense of the three passes, to rush to the three passes as quickly as possible, because the troops in the three passes have other combat missions, must not stop overnight. You can do it. "The generals all thought that Gongzi was going to arrange tomorrow's decisive battle, and they just wanted to let them undertake the main attack, so as to be ashamed, but they didn't expect Gongzi to completely hand over tomorrow's decisive battle to them, which obviously gave them a chance to take revenge completely. Everyone began to talk excitedly, and then a general said: "Childe, general, I will bear the farthest pass to receive and defend, even if I am tired, I will ensure that I will arrive on time." At this time, several generals said that they promised to arrive on time. Xiao Jiu smiled and nodded: "Okay, then let's break up, when we wait for everyone to win, we will leave for the border pass, and when the whole battle is over, we will see you in the imperial city." When the generals said goodbye to Xiao Jiu, the general said: "Childe, we originally wanted to fight a good battle under your banner and glorify it, but now it seems that there is no hope, and this has become the heart disease of all our army." Xiao Jiu glanced at Xiao Qi with a smile, only to see Xiao Qi turn over his hand and take out a neatly stacked handsome flag and hand it to the general, Xiao Jiu said: "Isn't it just a flag, it's not too late to wait until you arrive in the imperial city."
