Chapter 614: The Sea of Fire is merciless
The wild grass outside the city of Weizhou suddenly burned, and it burned very violently, swallowing the entire battlefield in an instant, the flames spread like flowing water, tens of thousands of people were caught in the sea of fire, struggling and roaring in a mess, even Liu Chong was hidden in the sea of fire, Liu Chengjun picked him up and jumped high, and then retreated to the sea of fire with light skills to barely save his life, Xiao Gude's light skills were not bad, and he immediately fled when he saw that the situation was wrong.
In the sea of fire, countless soldiers struggled with flames all over their bodies, and this struggle was powerless, and soon the entire battlefield was quiet, except for the flames that continued to burn, all sounds stopped.
No one could have imagined that Zong Xin had such a powerful trick, and I was afraid that even Yelu Zhenbu Xiangyang would not be able to use this trick. The entire battlefield turned into a sea of fire in an instant, how was this possible?
Everyone knows that Zongxin is very powerful, but they don't know that Zongxin is so powerful that he can instantly turn the battlefield into a sea of fire, and the flames are fierce as if something is supporting these flames, and there is a fishy smell in the flames......
"Fishy smell...... It's fishy. ”
Liu Chong immediately looked around, and found a jar on the side of the road, the jar was sealed with wax, and the temperature around it was too high, so the wax had begun to melt, and some turbid liquid flowed out of it. After Liu Chong dipped his finger a little, he put it to his nose and sniffed gently......
"Fish oil, these jars are full of fish oil. Liu Chong was surprised: "I understand, I understand...... That's what happened. ”
As soon as they heard fish oil, Xiao Gude and Liu Chengjun also understood. Zong Xin had already laid out a set as early as a month ago, and when the cavalry was pursuing in the fog, he threw these canisters full of fish oil everywhere, because they were among the wild grasses outside Weizhou City, and there was a cover of wild grass, and ordinary people couldn't see what was equipped here.
When they were besieging the city, although some soldiers would find these jars, there was nothing strange about them, they would only think that these were wine jars, and they didn't care so much when they were fighting.
Zongxin used the Seven Yang Glory to melt the wax at high temperature, and the fish oil flowed out of the jar. When the fish oil touched the wild grass, it was immediately burned by Zongxin's light. Maybe it's because some of the canisters flow out slowly, and the inside begins to burn and cause an explosion, which is a matter of turning in a flash, and everything within Zongxin's light range has become a sea of fire.
Once again, Liu Chong finally took it, this time convincingly. Zong Xin didn't do anything in this month, so these canisters full of fish oil had already been placed on the battlefield, when would it be? Obviously, as early as the first cavalry charge, the cavalry threw these canisters on the battlefield, because the first attack was on this place, so Zong Xin expected that he would attack the same place the second time.
Besides, there are so many people, as long as they come from the west gate, they will definitely gather in front of the city gate, there is no doubt about this, even an ordinary person can imagine it, let alone Zongxin?
In this month's time, Zong Xin deliberately closed the city gates, that is, he deliberately did not let people clean the battlefield, and deliberately kept the battlefield in its current state, so that the fish oil tank would not be discovered, not only the enemy, but even his own people. The smell of rotting corpses on the battlefield is just right to mask the fishy smell of fish oil, and the equipment armor and even weapons scattered all over the ground can reduce the presence of fish oil cans.
In the winter, the wax is very tightly sealed, and there is no fear that the wax will melt on its own, but after encountering high temperatures, the wax will slowly melt. In fact, there was no need for Zong Xin to use the Seven Suns to compete for glory at all, he only needed to shoot a few rockets to make the wild grass outside the city burn, and he could also ignite these fish oil canisters.
However, it is obvious that if you do this, the speed of burning will be very slow, and there will be no way to achieve the effect expected by Zong Xin, Liu Chong will also have reaction time, and after knowing that there is an ambush here, they can immediately transfer their positions, so that Zong Xin will have no way to take them. Therefore, Zong Xin wanted to use the Seven Suns to compete for glory, not to show his strength, but to achieve better results for the whole plan.
Zongxin had already thought of this plan a month earlier, even when he had just left Shioshima. Everything Liu Chong has done so far is in Zongxin's plan......
Liu Chong now knew that Zong Xin was powerful, but it was too late. All his troops were destroyed outside the Weizhou City Gate, and even 20,000 Khitan warriors were put in.
This fire almost engulfed the entire battlefield, and not many people could escape alive. Liu Chong was defeated in this battle, and he was completely defeated. Planted in the hands of Zong Xin twice in a row, Liu Chong understood the power of Zong Xin at the most tragic price. As long as there is Zongxin to protect the Great Zhou, no matter what kind of desperate situation is not a problem for him.
Although he knew that Zong Xin was powerful, because after trapping him in the cave last time, Liu Chong thought that Zong Xin's ability was nothing more than that. Now I know that maybe even he was trapped in the plan, because although Zongxin was trapped, judging from his state, it was impossible for him to starve to death in the cave, plus Lei Hong's reinforcements, Zongxin was not in any danger at all.
Liu Chong now knew that Zong Xin might have been trapped in the cave on purpose, which was also to confuse himself and think that he was not invincible. Zong Xin's resourcefulness is no longer mortal, his scheming is continuous, the reality is ethereal, it is difficult for ordinary people like himself to understand his strategy, even if he realizes it later, he is self-proclaiming.
Liu Chong's trembling lips and gray beard kept shaking with the rhythm of his lips, and at this time they could only watch the fire of the battlefield, and at this time the roaring had stopped, because the damned people were already dead.
"That's it, that's it. We are not Zongxin's opponents, as long as Zongxin protects Guo Wei, no one can destroy Da Zhou. Liu Chongdao: "I hope that after Guo Wei's death, Zong Xin and the new emperor will not agree, and that is our only chance." Go, go quickly, lest Zong Xin catch up and kill them all. ”
The group of three stumbled back, they had no intention of continuing the attack, they just wanted to get away from this place as quickly as possible. Now there is still a fire blocking the road, and after the fire stops, the soldiers of the Song valve will kill it, and everything will be over. In order to make this play more realistic, Zong Xin did not bury any ambushes, otherwise none of the three people present would have survived.
Running all the way back to the Northern Han military camp, Liu Chong immediately ordered the withdrawal of the army. There was no time to pack up the barracks, and now it was important to flee for your life.
At this time, the two Taoist priests, Chi Du and Wuwei, also rode horses to Liu Chong's side, and there was no need to ask, they knew that Liu Chong had lost and lost badly. Tens of thousands of soldiers gathered in three watches, and when they came back, there were less than 1,000 men and horses left, and they returned to the camp in a scattered manner, and the most terrible thing was that many people had more or less burns on their bodies, and this situation was obvious that Zongxin attacked with fire and annihilated all the troops of the Northern Han and Khitan in one fell swoop.
When Liu Chong and Liu Chengjun saw Wuwei Daoist, they reacted, and Wuwei said that they would use the 7749 days to make the sky rain, and they must attack the city at that time to win. Now that they have reacted, Daoist Wuwei is right, if it is a rainy day to attack the city, Zongxin's fire attack will be ineffective.
Although the weather is freezing cold, the situation on the other side is the same as that of the enemy, and everyone is fighting in the freezing rain, so what is the disadvantage? If we had listened to the words of the Taoist Wuwei, perhaps we would not have lost so badly this time, or even lost at all.
Originally, there was a chance to win, but Liu Chong actually counted down Wuwei and then asked him to get out of the camp. Now I feel regretful, Wuwei is a master in the world, although his ability is not as good as Zongxin, but he is far more powerful than himself. If you had listened to the words of Wuwei Dao Chief, whether it was a retreat or a siege in the rain, it would not be as miserable as it is now.
Liu Chong arched his hand and said: "Wuwei Daoist, please don't be surprised if you offended a few days ago, I am a mortal and don't understand the subtleties of the Xuanmen authenticity, and now it seems that ...... It would be nice if the widow had listened to the words of the Taoist of Wuwei earlier. ”
"Your Majesty is serious...... It's because the poor Taoist is not proficient, and he can't say why, even if the result is calculated, he doesn't know what it means, if he can say that the head is the Tao like Zongxin, maybe this thing won't happen. Wu Wei Dao: "Zong Xin is a high monk, this person's magic power is strong, and he is by no means comparable to ordinary people, and the poor Tao is also an ordinary man, and if he wants to win Master Zongxin, he is only afraid that the chance is slim." ”
"I understand. Liu Chongdao: "The strength of the Northern Han Dynasty has suffered a great setback in this war, and I am afraid that it will not be able to organize a decent attack in recent years." However, the widow still has a back move, as long as there is the help of the dragon vein, the Northern Han will soon be able to recover his vitality. Next, the Northern Han Dynasty will curl up in Taiyuan in order to make a comeback. ”
Guo Wuwei was surprised: "Dragon vein? Could it be that Your Majesty has a dragon vein in his body?"
"It's okay, although there is only half a dragon vein, the power of the dragon vein is strong, and it will definitely bless the Northern Han Dynasty with a bumper harvest and prosperity. Although I can't compete with the Northern Han for the time being, I still have a chance, and I can wait for a great opportunity. ”
"What chance?" Liu Chengjun was almost desperate, almost all the troops of the Northern Han were thrown outside the Weizhou city gate, not daring to say 100,000, but at least 80,000 died there. What kind of concept is this? An army of 80,000 people is enough to compete for world domination, and even a small city of Weizhou has not been captured, and even the soldiers defending the city will not suffer more than 2,000 casualties, including all the wounded......
This is the biggest failure in history, and I am afraid it will be remembered for thousands of years. has never fought such a battle, and Liu Chengjun still can't believe that all this is true.
Liu Chong gritted his teeth and said: "Guo Wei only has three years of the life of the Son of Heaven, and after Guo Wei's death, he will definitely pass the throne to his son Chai Rong. This will form a contradiction between Zongxin and Chai Rong, because Guo Xin is a disciple of Zongxin, Zongxin of course hopes that his disciple can be the emperor, Chai Rong is also a loyal minister and filial son, he will definitely govern the world according to Guo Wei's instructions, so that Chai Rong will lose the help of Zongxin, without Zongxin is not only Chai Rong is worried, but the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will be panicked because of the loss of Zongxin's help, that is the opportunity to attack again. ”
