Chapter 573: The Battle of the Burning Camp
The spark can start a prairie fire, plus the fire that night was deliberately done by someone, and the wind was extremely strong, the soldiers and horses of Cao Tao's two armies burned the grain and straw in the camp at a time, coupled with the planning and arrangement of Liyi, and instantly burned the endless Yuan camp on the east and west sides.
Huge flames burned the entire company camp incessantly.
Looking up, you can already see the fire in the camps everywhere, the smoke that is tumbling and constantly changing shapes, and the black pressure behind it reveals a little red light from time to time.
Not far away, the exclamations one after another can already confirm how terrifying this sudden fire is. Occasionally, you can even hear some terrible screams, perhaps because someone was accidentally burned by the fire, or maybe someone was killed because they didn't run out of the tent while they were asleep.
"Quick, go, go put out the fire!" Yuan Shao finally squeezed such a sentence out of his mouth.
Yuan Shao had lost his usual grace at this moment, and finally squeezed out such a sentence from his mouth, his panicked expression was overflowing at this moment, and he was very moved.
"The generals and soldiers of the various departments have gone, and the manpower that the Chinese army can draw at the moment is already fighting the fire. It's just that...... It's just that the fire came too suddenly, and at this point...... I'm afraid ......"
"It's over, it's over." Yuan Shao said in despair, he had never felt so hopeless and helpless.
When he was young, he suddenly showed a hideous look: "Cao Apu, Tao Zidu, Yuan is going to crush your bones and scatter ashes!" ”
"Kill!"
I don't know when, faintly from all directions, suddenly there was a continuous shouting of killing, Cao Cao and the pottery merchant's soldiers and horses in the fire after the fire, Yuan Jun to fight the fire when they were too busy to take care of themselves, and came to attack the village.
And the crossbowmen, whom they had already prepared, began to shoot rockets at the various company camps.
The continuous fire dragons in the sky above Yuan Ying roared angrily and flew to all corners. In the mountains and forests five hundred steps away from Yuan's camp, Cao Cao and the potters had already secretly ambushed a Biao army here according to the guidance of Liyi, and they saw that the Yuan's army in front of them had caught fire, and immediately set fire to the bushes in the forest as an echo.
In this way, in addition to the fire in the company's camp, the second wall of fire in the entire Yuan army's site also successfully cut off their back road in the other direction.
Yuan Shao was stunned.
He didn't know how things could suddenly turn out like this.
Victory seems to have been firmly held in the palm of his hand, how can it suddenly fly again?
After the first batch of rockets took to the sky, Cao Cao personally went into battle and ordered his soldiers to attack the village with all their might.
The generals under the command of the potters also led their troops and horses to attack various strategic points at the same time.
Cao Jun and Tao Jun can be said to be pouring out of the nest this time, and almost all the generals of each department are out, including Cao Jun's clan Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Cao Chun, Dian Wei, Pang De, Yu Ban, Li Dian, Yan Xing, Yu Ban, Le Jin, Liu Xun, etc.
The lineup of the potters is not ambiguous, Zhao Yun, Xu Chu, Tai Shici, Xu Sheng, Xu Huang, Xu Rong, Ji Ling and others are also not left behind, and the elite battalions of various departments are also dispatched.
The campfire continued, the enemy army arrived, and Yuan's army suffered a fatal blow in this battle.
It would have been impossible to save such a big fire, but the enemy army was still coming one after another.
Wen Chou brandished his war knife and came to Yuan Shao's side all the way, and he shouted at Yuan Shao: "General, I will protect you and kill you!"
Yuan Shao was already a little stupid at the moment, he looked at the camp that could no longer be saved, listening to the cries and shouts of killing coming from everywhere, and he was stunned and speechless.
Pity the overwhelming army of hundreds of thousands, once the zombie fighting spirit, the command system is completely out of order.
"Boom!"
The fireball that fell from the sky was thrown out of the camp in front of it, and smashed not far from Yuan Shaozhong's military commander's tent, splashing sparks and dust.
"Not good!" Yuan Jun's guards shouted, "Cao Jun's thunderbolt is here!"
For the current situation of Yuan Jun, the arrival of the thunderbolt can be described as even worse for them.
Wen Chou stomped his foot heavily and said angrily: "I can't take care of it so much, general, I forgive the last general!"
After all, regardless of whether Yuan Shao was willing or unwilling, he picked up Yuan Shao and ran over on the war horse......
In the midst of the chaos, countless Yuan troops surrendered to the Tao army or the Cao army one after another because of the flames.
But there are also some generals who know that they can't surrender anyway, or that they can't surrender, so they can only desperately kill outside the village.
Among them, Zhang Yigong, the deputy general who betrayed Koji Yi and told Yuan Shao about the betrayal of Koji before.
Zhang Yigong is not stupid, he deeply understands that after Lu Yi escaped from Yuan Shaoying, he must have gone to Cao Cao or a potter.
However, he didn't take this matter seriously, in his opinion, no matter how powerful the alliance between Cao Cao and the pottery merchant is, it will definitely not be Yuan Shao's opponent, and he has a meritorious report to Yuan Shao, and in the future, Yuan Shao killed Cao, Tao, and killed Liyi, and his wealth and glory can be said to be captured.
It's a pity that the world is impermanent, and there are no absolutes in everything, so Cao Cao and Tao Shangshang gave Zhang Yigong a lesson.
Zhang Yigong's dream was still a few days away, and a monstrous fire completely shattered his sad dream.
Cao Tao burned not only Yuan Shao's overlord heart, but also the greedy heart of people like Zhang Yigong who were eager to be promoted under Yuan Shao.
And not only that, they can't even save their own lives.
Between Zhang Yicheng and a group of cronies' men galloping on horseback, Liyi and Xu Rong's troops had already blocked their way.
"Yes, is that you?"
Looking at Lu Yi's slightly hideous expression in the firelight, Zhang Yigong couldn't help but exclaim.
Lu Yiyin stared at Zhang Yigong with a smile, and said indifferently: "Ben will know that according to Yuan Shao's temperament, after Ben will be framed by you for false accusation, he will definitely appoint you to take over from me in charge of the soldiers and horses of the headquarters as a reward, hehe, so good!" Koji is also worried that he can't find you, so he just needs to find the former Xiandeng camp! Zhang Yigong, you are going to die today, what do you want to say? ”
Zhang Yigong's whole body trembled, and when he heard this, he said angrily: "Lu Yi, you don't want to slander people, which frame you!" It is clear that you yourself are unfaithful and unrighteous to the Lord, and you despicable and shameless villain are not quick to get out of the way! ”
Seeing Zhang Yi's public expression, Koji Yi couldn't help laughing.
When he had laughed enough, he saw him turn his head and say to Xu Rong, who had been silent: "General Xu, those people next to Zhang Yigong will be handed over to you, I will do this person myself, I don't know if it's okay?"
Xu Rong didn't care much, he was originally here to accompany Koji Yi this time, what Koji commanded, what he did.
However, looking at Ko Yi's arrogant and proud spirit, Xu Rong felt uncomfortable no matter how he looked at it.
What a villain.
However, his expression was obscured by the bronze mask on his face, and Koji Yi couldn't see it.
"Wrapped up in someone Xu, Koji Gong will go to take revenge." Xu Rong's tone was flat.
Lu Yi was not very happy with Xu Rong's tone, but he didn't say anything about Xu Rong, and rode straight towards Zhang Yigong. And Xu Rong led a group of Taishan troops to kill Zhang Yigong's men.
