Chapter 675: Kill Out
The fire burned like a tidal wave, and set the clothes of the soldiers under the castle tower on fire.
After the tung oil was dumped, the splashes of tung oil were thrown on the soldiers' clothes, staining them with tung oil. When the fire burned and sparks flew everywhere, the clothes stained with tung oil were ignited at once.
"Crackle! Crackling! β
Under the castle tower, after the raging fire was ignited by the sassal wood, the explosion continued to sound.
At this time, there was already a sea of fire under the castle tower.
"Get out of the way, get out of my way, don't get in my way." A soldier whose clothes were already on fire squeezed forward quickly, ripping off his clothes and trying to rush out.
"Huh?? Save me, save me! β
One soldier had turned into a burning man, with a fire burning all over his body, struggling incessantly.
When the soldier twisted his body, he could already smell the smell of roasted meat.
Under the city tower, there was chaos, and the soldiers were embarrassed and rushed out quickly. The ladders on the city walls also caught fire, so that the soldiers on the towers could no longer go down the stairs and had to be slaughtered. The scorching sea of fire became more and more ferocious, and it was already impossible for the soldiers below the city to continue the siege.
Wang Can stood on the city tower, his eyes swept over the city tower that had gradually calmed down.
It didn't take long for corpses to pile up on the castle tower.
Among these corpses, there were soldiers under their own command, but most of them were soldiers under Yuan Shu and Lu Bu. Moreover, there were Dian Wei, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai and Chen Zhi and others on the city tower who fought hard, and soon stabilized the situation on the city tower.
Wang Can turned his eyes, looked at Lu Bu, and shouted: "Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Chen Dao, Zhang Ren listen to orders!" β
The four of them immediately ran over, clasped their fists and said, "The last will be!" β
Wang Can commanded loudly: "Order the four of you to go downstairs immediately, lead the soldiers to wait under the city tower, and when the city gate is opened, you will immediately lead the soldiers to kill them." β
"No!"
The four of them replied, and immediately turned to carry out the order.
The remaining enemy troops on the city tower are no longer to be worried, even if Gan Ning and the others stay on the city tower, it will not be of much use. Therefore, Wang Can asked the four of them to go down to gather the soldiers and prepare to rush and kill.
Judging from the current situation, it is imperative for Yuan Shu and Lu Bu to temporarily withdraw their troops. Because the morale of the Yuan and LΓΌ armies was burned by a fire, the soldiers panicked in their hearts, and even if they reluctantly continued to fight, it would be difficult to achieve victory. In particular, the soldiers were in chaos under the castle tower, and many soldiers had already been burned to death by the fire, leaving a shadow in their hearts.
Keep fighting, it's definitely not suitable.
Wang Can leaned his hands against the women's wall, looked at Lu Bu and Yuan Shu in the distance from the city tower, and showed a hint of a smile.
These two people can't make it happen!
Lu Bu's martial arts are exquisite, but he is just a reckless man, suitable for rushing and killing on the battlefield, but not suitable for being a prince. Because Lu Bu's ability to march and deploy troops is not strong, it is difficult to command an army; Moreover, Lu Bu does not have a city government strategy, and he is arrogant, does not listen to people, and it is difficult to shepherd one side. However, Lu Bu's ambition is not small, once such a person embarks on a path that should not be taken, his end is already doomed.
As for Yuan Shu, this person's ability is good, but because he has no one in his eyes, he is self-righteous.
Wang Can led his troops to fight with Yuan Shu and Lu Bu, and as long as they fought steadily, they would definitely be able to block Lu Bu and Yuan Shu from the city.
Outside the city tower, Yuan Shu and Lu Bu looked at the fire burning under the city tower, the corners of their mouths twitched slightly, especially watching the brave soldiers turn into fire men and keep struggling, and their hearts were not even more pleasant.
At this time, Wang Can did not send troops, but the soldiers under the command of the two were already constantly retreating.
The situation on the battlefield is gradually out of the control of the two.
Zhang Liao stood beside Lu Bu with a war knife, and admonished: "Lord, Wang Can has been prepared for a long time, he is waiting to come to us to attack the city, and now Wang Can disperses the soldiers with a fire, and the fire spreads, we will definitely not be able to attack again, withdraw and rest!" Zhang Liao looked at the soldiers who were constantly struggling, and his face also showed a sad expression.
One by one, all living lives were burned to death like this, it's a pity, it's a pity.
Lu Bu looked at Yuan Shu, expecting Yuan Shu's answer.
In fact, Yuan Shu Jian'an's soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and they had long had the idea of withdrawing their troops. It's just that he saw Lu Bu sitting still, and he was embarrassed to be weaker than Lu Bu, so he was reserved and didn't make a sound.
Now Zhang Liao advised Lu Bu to withdraw his troops, and Lu Bu also had the idea of withdrawing his troops, which just gave Yuan Shu the opportunity to borrow the slope to get off the donkey, so that he could go down the steps. Yuan Shu nodded and said, "Okay, let's withdraw our troops first, wait until we go back to rest, and make a plan to attack Wang Can, and then attack Wang Can." β
When Lu Bu heard this, he ordered: "Mingjin, collect the troops!" β
As soon as the order was delivered, the sound of bells and gongs immediately sounded in the military formation.
"Bell! Clang! β¦β¦β
On the battlefield, the sound of gongs ringing is constantly transmitted. After the sound of screeching sounded, the already chaotic situation became even more chaotic.
Because the soldiers under the city tower who were constantly retreating due to the fire were already crowded, and they were constantly squeezing out. When they heard the sound of the gong, they immediately became anxious, and they longed to grow their wings and fly out directly. But the soldiers were next to each other, crowded with people, and there was not the slightest gap, and it was difficult to rush out.
The sound of the gong was like a talisman, making the situation out of control.
Wang Can stood on the city tower and knew the situation below.
He saw that the situation below was a mess, and shouted, "Open the city gates!" β
At the sound of an order, the soldiers in charge of defending the city gate opened the city gate. The moment the city gate opened, the retreating soldiers outside the city saw this situation, and their hearts were overjoyed, and they had other ideas. Some soldiers even shouted: "The city gate is open, quickly, kill back." β
As he spoke, the soldiers rushed into the city with their swords.
Immediately, countless more soldiers rushed forward.
When the city gate was first opened, it was difficult to see the situation inside the city, and these soldiers wanted to make meritorious contributions, so they rushed forward with their lives. However, the gates gradually widened, and the situation inside the city was exposed.
When the soldiers who were charging towards the city gate saw it, they braked sharply and stopped.
In the city, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Chen Zhi, and Zhang Ren stood on horseback.
The four of them were followed by soldiers wearing armor and holding Han swords, these soldiers were full of energy and fighting spirit, and they were all soldiers with full physical strength.
The army stood in array in the city, exuding an extraordinary momentum, and the momentum was like a tiger.
The soldiers who charged towards the city gate suddenly stopped, but the soldiers behind them did not see the situation in the city, and the inertia of running was too great, so it was difficult to stop for a while, so after rushing up, there was a collision between the soldiers, and several soldiers standing in front of the mouth were directly knocked to the ground, grinning in pain.
Seeing this, the corners of Gan Ning's mouth hooked up with a sneer.
He raised the Hengjiang knife in his hand and shouted, "Kill!" When the words fell, Gan Ning had already ridden his horse and killed him.
"Kill!"
Zhou Tai, Chen Dao, and Zhang Ren also carried their respective weapons and led the troops to kill.
In the city, the roar of soldiers sounded loudly, and all the soldiers roared loudly, and the sound was like thunder, and it was extremely loud. The soldiers rushed out with sharp swords and rushed towards the retreating enemy.
At this time, Lu Bu turned around and saw a group of soldiers killed in the city, and his face showed a look of surprise.
He pondered it carefully, looked at Yuan Shu and said, "General Yuan, if we keep fleeing, we will definitely be defeated and scattered by the army behind. Rather than this, it is better to lead the troops to kill back, defeat the Yizhou army that came out of the city, and then retreat. In this way, we can ensure that we will not be pursued when we retreat, what do you think? β
