In the royal court, outside the golden tent, there are golden wolf riders and attendants of the Sadu Sect, and ordinary people can't approach them at all. The atmosphere in the big tent was solemn, the golden wolf rode in and out from time to time to report on the arrival of the war and the arrival of the tribe's supplies, and Kalu and Qu Contra stood next to the cowhide map and marked, talking in a low voice from time to time. His Holiness Badorje sat on one side, and Tiju sat on the side, glancing up at the map from time to time.

A golden wolf rode in and reported: "Holy Maiden, King of France, Huyan Khan has led 50,000 troops to the royal court. ”

Tizhu stood up with a happy face and said, "My brother-in-law is here, I'll go to greet you." ”

When Tizhu was young, her sister married far away to the Huyan tribe, and her impression of her sister Sage was weak, not to mention her brother-in-law who had only met a few times. Under the bear's head banner, a burly strong man rode on a tall horse, full of beards, looking forward to being a male, and the soldiers beside him were strong and strong, and they were powerful.

Coinciding with the appearance in her memory, Ti Zhu urged her to step forward and smiled: "Brother-in-law, you came at the right time." Are my sister and nephews okay? ”

"It's all good, Sag also asked me to bring gifts, and Damo and the others received gifts from you, and often told you to go see them. This time I led my troops south, and Damo shouted to come with me, but your sister stopped him. Hu Yanen smiled heartily.

Hu Yanen greeted Ti Zhu loudly, the little girl back then had grown up and was already a saint of the grassland tribe, who would have thought that the naughty little girl would actually appease the grassland at a critical juncture, so that the infighting that might break out at any time was extinguished, and she unanimously fought against the Zheng army. If it weren't for the fact that there had never been a female khan in the grassland, I am afraid that most of the steppe people would be willing to serve her as a great khan.

Golden Horde, Hu Yanen visited the Dharma King, met with the two brothers-in-law of Kunbo and Liman, and the family chatted a few words of family life. Hu Yanen said: "Someone broke into my station last night, and I sent someone to intercept it, but he escaped. ”

Enhan frowned and said, "The Teha tribe said that someone stole the war horse by the Egan River, this person is dressed in a fur coat and dressed like the warriors of the Huyan tribe, it is very likely that he is the Zheng spy who escaped. This spy is very skilled, killing several members of the Teha Ministry, and more importantly, this person has seen the sulfur and other materials transported by the Teha Ministry, if he returns to Zhengying to report the news, our plan may be frustrated. ”

Badorje said in a deep voice: "This person must not be allowed to go back to report the news. The Holy Maiden and several Khan kings sent wolf horsemen divided into more than 100 squads to carry out a dragnet search, urging all tribes to transport supplies in place as soon as possible, paying attention to observing Zheng Ying's movements, and preparing to set fire at any time. ”

Jiang Jian felt that the obstacles in front of him had become dense, and there were several teams of desert horses galloping past as far as his eyes could see. The goal of riding the horse was too big, Jiang Jian let go of the horse, hid in the grass, and took advantage of the gap in the search to move forward, looking at the westward sun, and estimated that there were still more than forty miles away from the camp, Jiang Jian became anxious, according to this situation, he couldn't get to the camp before, so what was the use of the information he had discovered.

The sky gradually darkened, and the desert riders searched in front did not decrease but became more and more, Jiang Jian estimated that these desert riders were aimed at himself, and it seemed that the desert people would not let themselves go back to the camp. Gritting his teeth, Jiang Jian took out the fire fold from his arms and shook it, if the desert man wants to attack with fire, he will give him a fire first, I hope that the soldiers in the camp can see the fire and prevent it in advance.

Igniting the withered grass at his feet, Jiang Jian rushed to a few feet away and then lit the withered grass, and in a moment several fires came out, the smoke rose, and the wind swept the flames and smoke, like fluttering flags. The sky was getting dark, the flames were very conspicuous in the hazy night, a desert rider found the firelight, and ran over with a shout, Jiang Jian threw the fire in his hand into a bush, and hid with bated breath.

The riders apparently had a solution to the fire, and some took off their clothes, poured the drinking water they had brought with them, and then stepped forward to pounce

Fighting the flames, some people leaned over and quickly harvested the grass with their scimitars, trying to make a clearing before the flames arrived.

Jiang Jian would let these people calmly put out the fire, rushed out of the hiding place, slashed down the indifferent man who was fighting the flames beside him with one palm, pulled out the scimitar from his waist, and killed the indifferent person who was fighting the fire. The visibility of the night was not high, and the smoke was burning, and by the time the indifferent people found out that something was wrong, Jiang Jian had already killed seven or eight people.

The indifferent people who fought the fire were very scattered, which greatly facilitated Jiang Jian's shot, Jiang Jian was as strong as a tiger, and his knife was like the wind, killing the group of indifferent people and fleeing in all directions. The fire gradually coalesced, spreading to the south at the agitation of the wind, Jiang Jian jumped on a war horse, picked a burning stick, and set fire all the way.

Soon, the news that the Zheng people spies had set fire on the grassland reported to the royal court, and Ti Zhu hurriedly said: "The fire is not big, quickly send someone to put out the fire, don't let the fire burn the grassland." ”

Qu Zhidao sighed: "I originally planned to launch a fire attack at the third watch, most of the Zheng soldiers there have already fallen asleep, and the effect of the fire is better, but the sky is not as good as the people, and it was destroyed by this spy of Zheng Jun." There are Zheng Guo's spies everywhere in the grassland, and the fire in the grassland cannot be hidden, as long as someone sends the situation to Zheng Ying, the generals of the Zheng army will definitely be vigilant and prepare for fire prevention. The time is no longer there, and the Holy Maiden and the Dharma King must immediately order a fire attack. ”

Tizhu was still hesitant, and His Holiness Badoje asked, "Karyu, are the arson points ready?" ”

The dense red dots on the cowhide map surrounded the Zheng army's camp in half, and Kalu said: "Eighty percent of the supplies have been prepared, and they can set off at any time to launch a fire attack." ”

"In that case, let's do it. Kunbo, Liman, Enhan, you lead the army to be ready to attack at any time, and the original immortal heaven blesses the children of the grassland. Badorje stood up and prayed reverently.

In the darkness, countless carts loaded with hay, sulfur, oil and other materials galloped towards Zhengying from all directions, and more than 200,000 desert troops were ready to go.

In the middle of nowhere, Wang Keming took the guards and began to patrol the camp, and the soldiers had already finished dinner, and they were laughing noisily in front of the camps, and they were going to go to bed in half an hour. Seeing the marshal coming, the soldiers got up and saluted, Wang Keming nodded, and stopped from time to time to say a few words to the soldiers.

After walking for half an hour, the horn sounded, the lights in the camp gradually went out, Wang Keming stood on the watchtower and looked forward, ten miles ahead was where the former camp was. Zhao Wei said with a smile: "Big brother, Wang Ting is just around the corner, let me go to Miao Shuai's tent tomorrow to listen to it, it's really uncomfortable to be trapped in the Chinese army and listen to others report their merits every day." ”

Wang Keming said: "Third brother, it is impossible for more than 200,000 people to surrender, and the Zuo Da Fuqu who came to ask for surrender today must have ulterior motives, I don't think it's just to delay time." After I went back, I asked the envoy of the Huang army to come to my account to speak, and I was worried that Mo Ren was thinking of some tricks, so I asked the people from the Military Intelligence Department to listen to it more. ”

"What tricks can soldiers have when they come to the city?" Zhao Wei smiled indifferently: "Big brother, the older you get, the more careful you are, I think that back then, our brothers dared to exterminate the desert people and ten thousand tribes with five hundred light horses, and they still ...... after being beaten by Zhu Dashuai's military stick."

Wang Keming remembered the years when he was young, and a smile appeared on his face, the young man who was Ren Xia had become an old man who was close to the age of sixties, and the years were stubble, which made people sigh. Suddenly, Wang Keming was attracted by a little shining in the distance, and then bright spots appeared and became one.

Zhao Wei also discovered the abnormality, looked at it intently for a moment, and exclaimed: "It's not good, it's fire." ”

"Quick, blow the horn and inform everyone to respond." Wang Keming trotted up, and while running, he instructed the guards around him: "Pass my command, let the battalions prepare to fight the fire, let the heavy cavalry and the sword team prepare to retreat first, Zhao Wei, you take my commander's order to command,

I will go to the emperor's tent of the Son of Heaven, let the Son of Heaven drive, and you will lead a team to escort the Son of Heaven to Dano Lake to avoid the fire. ”

There are 5,000 of the 20,000 heavy cavalry and 8,000 of the sword swordsmen. Dano Lake is fifteen miles southeast of the camp, where there is a store of food and grass supplies for sending troops, and 80,000 Zheng soldiers and 100,000 servants are stationed there.

The military situation was critical, Zhao Wei hurried to the tent, and Wang Keming rushed to the tent, at this time, the soldiers on the watchtowers around the camp had found that the fire was rising in the distance, and the sound of gongs and warnings sounded. The trumpets sounded, and there was a commotion in the army, and the captain shouted loudly, telling everyone to get dressed and stand by in the camp. You must know that the army is most afraid of startling the camp, after the lights are out, you are not allowed to move around, you are not allowed to make a noise, this kind of trumpet sounding in the middle of the night is very rare, and it generally occurs when the enemy breaks into the camp.

The emperor's tent, Shi Fang was really ready to go to bed, and when he heard the sound of gongs and horns outside the camp, he knew that it was not good, and said: "Liu Weiguo, you ask Wang Keming what's going on, but when the desert people came to rob the camp, why did it become a pot of porridge outside?" ”

As soon as the words fell, the guards outside said loudly: "Shen Guogong asks to see him." ”

"Xuan."

Wang Keming walked into the tent quickly, ignoring the etiquette and hurriedly said: "Long live, the desert people set fire to the plain, trying to burn the camp, please long live the move to the Dano Lake for temporary shelter." ”

Shi Fangzhen's face turned pale and asked, "What about the casualties of the front army?" Miao Tieshan, do they have a report? ”

"At the moment, the fire has just started, and there are no casualties, but Miao Tieshan and the others are all veterans of the battlefield, and I think they will deal with it properly." Wang Keming wanted to say more, but Liu Weiguo on the side was anxious first, and said anxiously: "Long live, water and fire are ruthless, if you hurt the dragon body, it won't be good." Shen Guogong, quickly prepare the carriage and horses, send troops to escort Long Live to leave, and King Luo Huai also bothered Shen Guogong to inform him. ”

After half a pillar of incense, Zhao Wei led the heavy cavalry, light cavalry and slashing team to escort the Son of Heaven out of the camp, Wang Keming breathed a sigh of relief, at this moment, the sky in the north was already full of red flames, and the black ash of the grass and trees drifted with the wind, and the smell of burnt smell came in the air.

"Give the order, tear down the tents, clear the dead grass around the camp, and prepare to put out the fire." Wang Keming knew that the speed of fire was much faster than the speed of a person's run, and if he ordered to retreat at this time, it would not take long for the fire to catch up, and there would be nowhere to escape. The correct way to deal with this is to get close to the water source, clear a clearing, and wait for the fire to burn by.

In the front army, the fire was already rolling in the sky by the wind, and Miao Tieshan roared hoarsely with black ash on his face, but everywhere the wailing was everywhere, the flames were soaring to the sky, and there were people running for their lives everywhere. The sound of the desert's horn sounded, like a ghost sound urging life, Fan Changsheng persuaded: "Dashuai, the fire is no longer controllable, the general trend has gone, give the order to retreat." ”

Miao Tieshan had tears in his eyes and choked up: "The old man has been fighting for more than 40 years, but I didn't expect the old man to be defeated so badly, the general will inevitably die before the battle, and the old man will not retreat." ”

Fan Changsheng was anxious, glanced at the guards, and shouted, "Don't protect the handsome yet, go quickly." The guards pulled Miao Tieshan's mount and fled towards the place where the fire was sparse.

Qi Xinwen and Zhu Jinfeng also ordered a retreat, and the camp of the former army burned into a raging wall of fire. Kun Bo and others led the desert army to chase and kill the defeated Zheng army, and the entire grassland was shrouded in blood.

Wang Ting, Qu Zhidao looked at the fire that rose to the sky, and smiled wildly: "Burn, burn, burn clean...... Mother, this incense is grand enough, the child has avenged you...... Jinjing locks the sycamore, sighing in the air with a gust of wind...... It's rare to see the old mother of Gaotang, how can it not make people cry...... Woohoo......"

Qu Guidao stood in front of the royal court, looking at the red flames in the sky, tears flowed down his face, and he couldn't cry.
