Chapter 203: The fire is fierce
Day 3
In front of the two armies, the generals on both sides did not say much else, and in this battle of life and death, neither side had anything to be polite about. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After the Southern Barbarian army pressed on, the battle began, with the marksman suppressing the soldiers on Qiguan City, and the sword and shield soldiers covering the barbarians with sandbags.
Unlike the previous two days, there were many rain and arrows on the city of Qiguan, resulting in heavy casualties in the Nanban.
Today, what puzzled the southern barbarians was that the Dayu soldiers on Qiguan City only threw some black and sticky pungent things down.
One of its feather arrows didn't shoot down, they don't know what the hell they were doing, they didn't think that the Dayu soldiers sitting on Qiguan would be missing the feather arrows.
Others don't know, but several Nanban leaders and Nanban Marshal Halba and others know it clearly.
Except for some Nanban soldiers who were injured by clay pots, in less than half an hour, the Nanban side only killed and injured less than 100 people.
Ignoring what the Dayu soldiers in the city thought, when the Nanban people saw it, they ignored the others, and increased their manpower to deliver sandbags to Qiguan City.
At the same time, the oil thrown down by the Dayu soldiers was all over the city of Qiguan, so that many Southern Barbarian soldiers often fell to the ground while transporting sandbags.
This made a group of Nanban leaders and others think that this black thing was probably to slip and block the actions of a group of Nanban soldiers.
However, its effect and impact were very limited, and the Southern Barbarian soldiers were not difficult to reach by a small slippery thing because of this.
After the soldiers fell, they all got up one after another and continued to carry sandbags under the castle.
Although the pace has slowed down, the progress has increased due to the increase in manpower.
Unlike the optimistic faces of several Nanban leaders, the Nanban Marshal Halba on the side squatted and stared at the oil on the ground.
Marshal Halba dipped his hand in the oil on the ground, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, and a pungent smell rushed to his nostrils.
Looking at this oil like water, this made Marshal Halba of the Southern Barbarians very puzzled, and couldn't help but wonder:
'What is this, and how can it be so strange?'
Soon, Shangguan Qiuyu upstairs gave him the answer, and the Dayu soldiers in Qiguan City were not throwing that black thing at this moment.
Instead, the rockets aimed at the city and hung their bows, which made the Nanban Marshal Halba, who suddenly raised his head, see a pupil constriction.
He hurriedly shouted:
"Everyone quickly retreated. ā
Before the words fell, I saw that nearly 10,000 rockets had rushed towards Qiguan City, and these rockets were not heading towards the southern barbarian soldiers, but towards the oil under their feet.
The oil that had been in existence for a long time suddenly broke out after encountering the rocket, and its monstrous fire quickly spread to the entire Qiguan City.
The Nanban Marshal Halba and the Nanban chieftain who were originally a little far away were also within the range of the fire.
Because the southern barbarian soldiers carried sand and gravel, back and forth, and between the rounds, their feet were stained with a lot of oil.
Therefore, the spread of this fire is somewhat wide.
Marshal Halba and several leaders of the Southern Barbarians quickly retreated before the fire came, but they were not consumed by the ferocious flames.
But many of the soldiers beside them were not so lucky, because they didn't have time to react, except for some guards with relatively high martial arts, other ordinary soldiers were swallowed up in the fire.
This fire directly engulfed the city of Qiguan, and nearly 200,000 Nanban soldiers saw Nanban wailing in the fire.
Many people rushed to their rear formations to save their lives, but they were greeted not by rescue, but by cold feathered arrows.
Many people were shot and killed by their own people because they were dressed in flames, which made the southern barbarian soldiers who were caught in the fire feel desperate.
In addition to the thick black smoke and the uncomfortable pungent smell, there was also a smell of barbecue in the air, which made the Dayu soldiers in Qiguan City smell it and couldn't help but want to vomit.
Fortunately, Shangguan Qiuyu had someone prepare a wet cloth towel earlier, and let them cover their mouths and noses in advance.
And he himself directly closed his sense of smell, so as not to let himself smell this kind of barbecue smell that was difficult for him to swallow.
Although there have been many armies in history, because there is not enough military rations, human flesh is used as military rations.
Man is called a man because he has a non-beastly mind, and he can kill his own kind, but he cannot eat his own kind.
Cannibalism is such a thing as a violation of human ethics, if it is not a last resort, no one will feed on it, and Shangguan Qiuyu is extremely disgusted with cannibalism.
At this time, it was the north wind blowing, but the billowing smoke was all in the direction of the Nanban military camp, which did not have any impact on the Dayu soldiers on Qiguan.
However, because of the ferocity of the fire, the Dayu soldiers on Qiguan City, who were close to the fire, felt the heat wave rolling, as if they were about to be roasted, and they were sweating.
However, compared to the price of their lives, the Dayu soldiers in Qiguan City would rather bear this heat.
Compared to the year-round summer heat in Tianyan County, this bit of heat is nothing, and it is not a big deal.
The north wind was very strong, and it once showed signs of pouring into the southern barbarian camp.
This made the Nanban Marshal Halba and several Nanban leaders see it, and they couldn't help but step forward and stop the spread of the fire with the strength of a few people.
Marshal Halba, the Southern Barbarian, flew alone above the fire, and stood in the air.
In the air, the Southern Barbarian Marshal Halba didn't say a word, and then swung down with a knife, a cold knife qi
Slash at the monstrous flames beneath you.
Suddenly, where Marshal Halba's sword qi passed, the fire was extinguished one after another, and the ground condensed into a cold ice, freezing the burning oil on the ground.
Shangguan Qiuyu saw that the monstrous fire under Qiguan City was extinguished by a quarter under the sword of Marshal Halba, and his pupils couldn't help but shrink.
Turning his head to look at the two Iron Eagle and Ying Lao beside him, the two of them understood, and they flew up together and killed the Nanban Marshal Halba in the air.
Seeing this, Shangguan Qiuyu instructed Han Qinghu beside him:
"Go on, throw me oil and don't let the fire go out. ā
"Yes, the last general understands," Han Qinghu nodded in response.
Soon, the fire that was originally frozen by Han Qinghu's true qi burned again, and it was even more violent.
The three of them are all masters of the Innate Realm, and their fighting is hugely powerful, but the combination of Tie Ying and Ying Lao is the one who suppressed the Southern Barbarian Marshal Halba to death.
In order to prevent the Nanban Marshal Halba from causing damage to Qiguan City, Tie Ying and Shadow Lao beat Halba back to the Nanban camp.
At this point, Tie Ying and Ying Lao Er let go of their hands and feet, and they shot with all their might, wanting to seriously injure the Southern Barbarian Marshal Halba and make the barbarians behead themselves.
