Chapter 724: Fire Attack

This wave of roaring was still two hundred empty horses, all of them blindfolded, unable to see the dense crowd of soldiers in front of them, and could only blindly ram forward. Although Yue Xi was a little surprised, he didn't panic, but ordered loudly: "The pikemen line up, and the archers scatter to cover the attack." ”

With no knights at their disposal, the blind horses were quickly brought down without causing much trouble to the people in the camp. Fang Ronghao was angry: "Qiu Ming, did he know that our food was not good, so he specially sent us horse meat?" Ha ha. ”

In the laughter of the full battalion of soldiers, Xu You frowned and said, "Something is wrong, where are these horseback cavalry?" Not good, they're just afraid they've already slipped into the camp. Yue Xi's face also changed: "Yes, they jumped off their horses before entering the camp, you should search left and right, don't let the enemy mix in." ”

These soldiers were all improvised by Xu Yu from all directions, and they were not too familiar with each other, so they were even more angry, and they all looked at each other with suspicious eyes, and they were ready to draw their swords against each other without saying a word. Yue Xi and Xu You were also a little confused, if the people of Qiuming changed into military uniforms here and blended in with the soldiers, it was really impossible to screen them out one by one.

When he was helpless, the tents on all sides suddenly burst into flames, and Yue Xi knew that the other party did not want to blend in with the army at all, but to take the opportunity to set fire. In order to make a defenseless illusion and facilitate the other party's robbery of the camp, he had already reduced the sentry posts everywhere to a minimum, and there was a chaos just now, thinking that the defense was even more empty, but he didn't expect that the other party would sneak into the camp and set fire to it by charging the momentum.

That night, the wind was fierce, the wind helped the fire, and the fire borrowed the power of the wind, Yue Xi only glanced at it, and knew that the camp was no longer saved. Fortunately, the soldiers were all armed with weapons and armor, and few of them were still sleeping peacefully in the tent. After saying that, he took the lead and went out of the camp gate.

On a hill not far from the camp, the three boys clapped their hands and were happy when they saw the fire below.

Sima Yi shouted: "How, the empty cavalry charge I came up with was unexpected, and it really had a miraculous effect, right?" If there is an ambush, it is just a loss of some beasts, if there is no ambush, hum, the two teams of galloping horses will not be able to turn their camp upside down. ”

Fa Zheng glanced at him: "As soon as you enter the enemy camp, it is like a stone sinking into the sea, there is no movement at all, do you really think there is any effect." If I hadn't arranged the fire, your galloping horses would have been just a great gift to the other party. ”

Sima Yi was ashamed and angry, entangled Fa Zheng to theorize, Yuan Shang said weakly on the side: "Big brother, when you compete for merit, don't forget that those galloping horses are all from my Yuan family, how can you say that my family should be the first merit?" ”

Guo Yuan also immediately stood on the hillock, silently looked at the fire below, and suddenly sighed: "Chen Gongtai's clever calculation, I am not as good as it, such a robbery camp is unheard of in ancient times, it is really eye-opening." ”

Chen Gong said with a smile: "The fire just now is the idea that those little babies came up with, and the next fire is my plan." ”

This fire next? Guo Yuan was a little puzzled, but he didn't want to ask too much, so he had to continue to accompany Chen Gong to watch the play.

However, it was said that Yue Xi rushed out of the fire, and there were already reports from Tanma that there were people watching the battle on the hill in front of him, and it seemed that he was from Tyumen. Yue Xi was so angry that his mind was dizzy at this time, and before he had time to think about it, the leader rushed towards the hill.

As soon as he rushed halfway, Yue Xi smelled a pungent smell, he thought for a while, and suddenly exclaimed: "It's not good, it's hot oil, and the enemy has an ambush." Before he could give the order to turn around, a wall of fire suddenly rose in front of him, and it had become a prairie fire in an instant.

Finally, Yue Xi reined in time and did not hit the wall of fire, but he also let out a cold sweat, and the mount was even more frightened. When he finally calmed down the horses, he found himself in a very disadvantageous situation, with fire in front and fire in the rear, and the group of them were trapped in a narrow strip of land surrounded by two walls of fire, unable to distinguish the direction, and only felt the flames spread on all sides. The Henan soldiers he brought with him were fine, and the reinforcements in several other places were already showing some signs of unstable morale.

At this time, Xu You was also a little undecided, and the two had not yet decided whether to break forward or backward, when they suddenly heard someone shouting outside the fire behind them: "Is General Yue inside?" Hedong Xu Huang was ordered to come to support. ”

Yue Xi was overjoyed and hurriedly replied loudly. It turned out that this fire was so burning that it could be seen from a long distance, and several nearby reinforcements had already arrived nearby, and they all rushed over after seeing the firelight. After a while, Jiangxia Li Tong, Lujiang Zhuguang and others all led the team to arrive, and the crowd was overwhelming, and all the fires were quickly extinguished.

In order to better observe the enemy situation and control the fire, he took the team to the hillock not far from the Yuexi camp, but he didn't expect the other party to suddenly come to the reinforcements of the brigade, even if he wanted to run now, it was too late, but he was surrounded on the hill by Yue Xi and his people.

Seeing that Qiu Ming was already unable to fly, Yue Xi was not in a hurry, he first talked with Xu Huang and the others for a while, and found that they were all ordered by Shangguan to come to help, but they didn't know anything about Jin Lanpu. Yue Xi immediately knew in his heart, and only assigned reinforcements to guard the periphery, so as not to let them have direct contact with Tyumen, so as not to leak the news.

By the time the distribution stopped, it was already dawn. Tyuming looked down from the hillock, and saw that there were dense human heads everywhere, and he was afraid that there would be no 100,000 of them, and he used them to surround his thousand or so people, which was really a knife to kill chickens. He was discussing countermeasures with Chen Gong Yuan Tan, and Huangfu Song came over: "Now that the victory and defeat have been divided, the disparity between the enemy and me is too great, and there is no need to fight for will." Now that no one has died on either side, it is better to bow your head for the time being, so as not to hurt a few children. ”

Qiu Ming and Yuan Tan looked at each other and smiled bitterly, Huangfu Song didn't know about Jin Lanpu, so he could naturally be so generous, but they really couldn't surrender. Qiu Ming thought for a while, and said to Huangfu Song: "Yue Xi is not a murderous person, when they attack, I will let Dian Wei protect the teachers and children to go first, as long as they can pass Ruzhou, they will be safe." ”

Seeing him like this, Huangfu Song frowned slightly and didn't say much, just told him to be careful and went back to guard the carriage. Yuan Tan said to Qiu Ming: "Now the situation is critical, my uncle is a great responsibility for the country, but he can't be held by them. Later, I will order Yan Liangwen to protect my uncle closely, and no matter what, I will send Jinlanpu to Luoyang smoothly. ”

Chen Gong was about to speak, the flag under the hill waved, Yue Xi ran up the hill with a single halberd, and asked Qiu Ming to talk.
