Chapter 163: The God of Fire cheers

But at this moment, from outside the army formation, there were suddenly bursts of gunfire.

Ba Xuan was stunned for a moment, couldn't figure out the situation, and shouted to the guards beside him, "What happened?" As soon as the words fell, with a "bang", a cannonball fell from about a hundred feet away from everyone, and everyone was frightened and inexplicable when they saw it, so they hurried away from here.

With a "boom", the cannonball suddenly exploded, and the orange-red fireball rose into the air, and the smoke and dust kicked up also scattered all over everyone.

"What's going on?" Ba Yu scolded.

A soldier in the distance came on horseback, his face pale: "Red Phoenix Army! Red Phoenix Army has been killed?"

"What? Ba Xuan was stunned, and his mind didn't turn his head for a while, and he shouted at the guards next to him, "Why did they kill them all of a sudden?"

They have been entangled with the Red Phoenix Army here for more than three months, and during this period of time, the two armies have never had a large-scale battle with more than a thousand people except for testing each other, why did the Red Phoenix Army launch an attack today?

"We don't know about this!"

In the face of Ba Xuan's questioning, those guards could only shake their heads and refuse.

And in this short period of time, another cannonball flew in the distance, this time the cannonball was only ten feet away from him, and the flames generated when it exploded had already made Ba Xuan feel burning.

Next time, it will definitely hit.

He stared at the two craters in the distance and shouted, "Quick, escort me out of here!" Regardless of Zhang Lu and the Han troops who gathered together, he even threw down the guards around him, and directly swept into the distance.

If you continue to stay on this tragic battlefield, you will die!

Knowing this, Ba Xuan refused to stay here any longer.

Immediately after, the guards looked at each other, glanced sideways at Zhang Lu, and then at Ba Yu who fled in the distance, estimated who was light and who was heavy, and immediately dropped the work in his hand, followed behind Ba Xuan, and retreated towards the rear.

Even if they let go of this group of Han dogs, in the face of the Red Phoenix Army, there is only one way to die!

When Baruch saw the group fleeing, he was a little anxious, and when he saw that Zhang Lu was eyeing him, he immediately took a step and chased after him.

However, his fat body had barely taken a few steps before he was hit directly by a cannonball, turning it into meat sauce all over the floor.

"Zhang Lu!"

Looking at this scene, those Han people were not frightened, and asked Zhang Lu, "Are you sure, did the Chifeng Army really take action?"

Last night, when Zhang Lu returned to the barracks, he called them in and discussed surrender.

When everyone heard it, they thought it was a fantasy, but today it seems that the Red Phoenix Army is so fast, and in just a while, it has already advanced here.

Zhang Lulang laughed loudly: "Of course, we only need to cooperate with them to find and destroy the granary and armory here, and we can make up for it." At least when the Red Phoenix Army comes up, you can also avoid death!"

"It's nature. It's just that you're sure that the Red Phoenix Army really won't hurt us?"

With their eyes slightly condensed, the group swept outside, and saw that the entire barracks were full of craters, after the previous round of baptism, the soldiers here had already been severely damaged, and the rest were also terrified and had no intention of resisting.

Zhang Lu smiled: "This is natural! As long as we follow their instructions, they will naturally not hurt us." Also, don't forget, if you want them to accept us, you have to kill them all. ”

Zhang Lu walked to the side of a guard, who was unfortunately hit by a cannonball when he fled, but he simply had the armor on his body intact, which gave Zhang Lu a chance.

"Guys, what are you waiting for here, do you really want to stay in that dark cell?"

Sweeping over those people, the corners of Zhang Lu's mouth turned up slightly, but he showed some mockery, ignoring that a few days ago, he was still like this group of people, and he was able to survive by wagging his tail and begging for mercy from villains like Baruch.

"Kill!"

Seeing a wounded soldier lying on the ground in the distance, Zhang Lu's face suddenly turned hideous, and he came to the man in an instant, and plunged the long knife in his hand into the opponent's chest.

Seeing Zhang Lu start to act, the rest of the people also woke up.

"That's right. If we continue, wouldn't it be the same as sitting still?"

Like Zhang Lu, they picked up the blades scattered on the ground, whether they were guns, hand cannons, or long knives and long swords, as long as they could hurt people, they were all held in their hands and killed all the way to the place where the granary was.

As long as that granary is destroyed, even if the Mongols repel this attack of the Red Phoenix Army, it will definitely not be able to hold on for long!

So, under the leadership of Zhang Lu, a team rushed towards the granary.

Feeling the support of everyone, Zhang Lu had an inexplicable pleasure for a while, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, if he hadn't had the adventure yesterday, I was afraid that he didn't expect that there would be a time to regain his prestige today!

The group hadn't been gone for long, and with a fierce cannon sound, the entire front immediately collapsed, and countless Red Phoenix troops from outside all poured into the military formation, killing everywhere.

Along the way, even though some Mongolian soldiers tried to lead their troops to resist, they were directly washed down in the face of this group of elite soldiers like tigers descending from the mountain, and the city walls made of clay sculptures and sand sculptures were of little use at all.

Looking at this scene from afar, Zhang Lu was frightened, and his previous ambitions were instantly extinguished.

"Fortunately, I defected to the Red Phoenix Army, otherwise I am afraid that I would not be able to resist at all. ”

Secretly glad that Zhang Lu also cheered up and ran all the way towards the granary, fortunately, the entire Mongolian army was paralyzed by the attack of the Red Phoenix Army, so they did not encounter any resistance, and soon came to the level leading to the granary.

The granary is located in the middle of the mountain, with only a narrow mountain road to pass.

You just need to guard the level in front of you to stop people from stepping into it.

When he came to this place, Zhang Lu was about to enter, but when he saw a cavalry rushing in the distance, he was shocked and hurriedly put away the weapons in his hand, but he was nervous, for fear that the other party would see through his target.

"Who are you?"

The leader shouted.

Zhang Lu was in a cold sweat, his eyes rolled, and he immediately replied: "We belong to the command of Zhang Hongsheng of the Han Attached Army, because the Red Phoenix Army was in turmoil, so we were sent here to prevent them from sneaking up on the granary!"

"It turned out to be from the Zhang family?" The man said, "It's just that you're not a team in charge of attacking, and how did you get here today to be in charge of defense?"

"Didn't it happen suddenly? All the soldiers were stunned, only we escaped by luck because we hid in the cooking room! It's a pity that the others didn't escape, and they all became the ghosts of the Red Phoenix Army. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Lu also shed a few tears, and he continued: "Because no one has gathered in a short period of time, His Royal Highness Bahui is afraid that the granary will be destroyed by the Red Phoenix Army, so he specially ordered us to come here and make sure that the granary is safe and sound!"

"That's nature!"

The man did not suspect fraud, so he led the group back to the level.

This person doesn't have much suspicion about Zhang Lu and the others, after all, these people are familiar faces, and they have a lot of contact on weekdays, so they are naturally very familiar, and looking at the Mongolian formation from here, you can also see that the formation is being ravaged by countless shells, and he doesn't doubt this statement.

Zhang Lu breathed a sigh of relief and complained, "Then let's hurry up and get ready." After all, the Red Phoenix Army may come anytime and anywhere, and if we let them burn down the granary, it will be a disaster!"

The group returned to the pass and began to busily inspect the position.

And after today's position, Zhang Lu also immediately saw the bags of grain stacked as high as a hill in the valley in the distance, and there were not a few such granaries, as for the stacked smoked beef, mutton and horse meat, it was also like leaves, hanging on the branches.

When he was secretly surprised in his heart, he asked, "There is still so much food?"

"Not much, actually. After all, we have 100,000 people, how much food do 100,000 people have to consume a day?" The general of the defending army opened his mouth and replied, "What's more, there is food reserved for retreat." ”

"Even so, this food alone should be able to sustain us for a long time. Zhang Lu sighed.

Before this, he thought that there was really a shortage of food in the army, but he didn't expect that there would be so much, and he was even more annoyed by this to Ba Xuan and the others.

If it weren't for this person secretly obstructing, how would he have these treatments?

The general of the defenders laughed, "That's just as well. After all, in order to be able to survive until spring and summer, we have to loot all the grain around us, otherwise how can we get so much food?"

"No wonder those guys treat me like this!"

Zhang Lu was at a loss for a while, remembering what happened to him in the Chifeng Army.

The food produced here is naturally limited, but there is so much food here, and the people below have only enough food to eat.

The general said lightly, but he didn't know how much blood and tears were hidden under these grains!

Hearing the general's words, Zhang Lu reluctantly let himself laugh, gestured to the people around him again, pretended to be curious and walked in front of the general, and pretended to be appropriate: "Since this is the case, I wonder if you can let me take a look?"

"I'm sorry, no!"

The defending general shook his head and refused outright.

Zhang Luqi said: "Why?"

"The Khan has a strict order. Unless you are the person holding the token, you must never touch the granary. The general replied, "If there is any offense, please apologize." ”

"It doesn't matter. Zhang Lu waved his hand and glanced at the others.

After those people entered the military formation, one by one they began to vaguely occupy the commanding heights here, and they also saw all the strongholds clearly, as long as he gave an order, they could start immediately.

"After all, I'm here to kill you!"

Estimating the distance, as soon as Zhang Lu's voice fell, his body suddenly bullied, and the dagger on his waist had already been pulled out, and it poked directly at the other party's heart.

This person is also a master, but in the face of Zhang Lu's unexpected blow, he had no ability to resist, and was pierced through the heart and died on the spot. The rest of the soldiers were taken aback for a moment, but then the sound of gunfire caused them to fall to the ground, and in a few moments, more than half of the entire barracks fell to the ground.

Although the other half of the people reacted, they were also forcibly occupied by them and directly suppressed with the artillery and guns here!

Seeing that this place was temporarily suppressed, Zhang Lu also waved his hand behind him and shouted, "Everyone immediately follow and burn this granary for me!"

In a few moments, about 100 people broke into the granary.

Looking at this huge amount of grain, they were amazed and cried out.

"These barbarians, as expected, have ill intentions towards us, and even though they have so much food, they still deduct military salaries. ”

"If so much grain is burned, I am afraid it will be a pity. Zhang Lu, can you not burn it? Even if you keep a little, you can do it. ”

"What else should we do? Stay here and let them continue to hover? Now we can only burn them all. ”

“......”

Looking at this huge amount of grain, the group was rarely quiet.

Think about it, didn't they fight to the death before just to be able to get a little more food?

However, when they came here today, they began to hesitate when faced with this huge amount of grain, and they always felt that it would be a sin to burn all this food.

What a pity it would be if so much grain were burned!

"Burn!"

Zhang Lu shouted.

"Okay, burn!"

The rest gritted their teeth and threw a series of combustibles stored here, such as thatch, oil, animal hair and cloth, onto the granaries and bacon, and then threw the torches prepared in advance directly onto them.

With a "rub", all the grain and cloth were ignited, and the fire burst out for a while, shining everyone's cheeks red.

The wind howled, bringing gusts of cold wind.

But the wind did not extinguish the fire, but made it rise higher and higher, and began to spread to other places, from the yellow weeds of the valley to the bushes, and finally even the towering ancient trees were swallowed up by the fire.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Lu was a little frightened and felt scared.

He turned his head and commanded his subordinates, "Hurry up!

With such a fire, anyone knows that something is going on here, and when the Mongolian high-level reacts, as the culprit who caused this scene, Zhang Lu will definitely not be able to escape the involvement.

That's why he had to run away from here, and the farther he went, the better, at least not to be found by those guys.

Otherwise, Zhang Lu would have to be chopped alive.

The rest of the people were also frightened, and fled from here, and the defenders here were also dumbfounded, although they wanted to draw water to fight the fire, but the fire became more and more fierce, and they could not do anything.

At this moment, the north wind is howling, but this usually cold wind now makes people feel it, but it is also full of blazing heat, making people feel as if they are in the dog days.

At the foot of the mountain, everyone also noticed the movement here and looked up one after another.

I saw that the whole mountain was full of fire, and the red sky was like the whole sky was burned red, and this scene also made everyone stunned.

There, but where the granary is!
