Chapter 116: The Flame of Vengeance
Underestimate the enemy! Yun Yue felt a little depressed, Chang Shengjun's reputation was ruined. More than 1,300 Qiang people were killed in the battle, and the number of wounded was about the same number. It can be said that his army of four thousand Qiang people has almost collapsed. Fortunately, Yun Yue envied Timur's war elephant troops and got more than 200 elephants out of Bashu. Otherwise, he might have to run away with the Bearded Knights today.
Ao Canghai lay in the tent and did not know whether he was alive or dead, and the wailing in the military village that he had temporarily set up was endless. Many of the Qiang soldiers were clansmen, and even had brothers and sons. The elder brother cries for the younger brother, the younger brother cries for the elder brother, Lao Tzu cries for the son, and the son cries for Lao Tzu into a mess. Fortunately, there are still elite bearded knights to maintain order, otherwise something would have happened a long time ago.
The wounded barracks was even more miserable, Yun Yue glanced at it from a distance, and those disgusting pictures surged in her mind.
In fact, it is not difficult to defeat these rattan armor soldiers, and the great and wise Mr. Zhuge has already given a solution. It's just arson, and there is fire oil in the ranks. It is not difficult to set fire, the key is how to lure these vine armor soldiers to a safe place.
In the afternoon, the vine armor soldiers calmly withdrew. Yun Yue knew that the casualties brought to them by today's battle were extremely limited. With his current strength, he can't deal with them, and if he is the commander of the other party, he will definitely take advantage of the darkness to launch a night attack.
Those elephants are unreliable, and all wild animals are afraid of fire. If you throw a torch at an elephant, the frightened elephant will even trample its own soldiers.
Night Raid! The other party really attacked at night, and he could only run away. Now Yun Yue is very glad that Donghuang Taiyi did not follow. If he sees his embarrassed appearance, I'm afraid he won't follow him back to Pingliang. A capable little brother. Usually don't look up to a mediocre big brother. This...... Can...... How...... Whole!
During World War II, Germany had a very famous field marshal. That was Rommel, known as the Desert Fox. He arrived in North Africa when he first arrived. Such a famous phrase was uttered during the attack on the port of Tobruk. That is, because we have fewer people, we attack.
Sometimes, military action is a contest of courage, perseverance, and enterprising spirit. Yun Yue wanted to take a gamble to see if his gang of killers could hold up.
On a cold night, a slightly yellowed full moon hangs high in the deep night sky, and wisps of smoky pale yellow moonlight gently leak down. Draped on the long tree, the cold wind blows by, the swaying dead leaves and branches, mottled reflection on the dark dead leaves all over the ground, bleak and quiet.
A Qiang flute sounded melodiously, high and low, intermittent. The unique desolation of the northwest land echoes by the Baishui River. Maybe it's the harsh living environment, or maybe it's the geographical location of the vast and sparsely populated area. Northwest people have a unique temperament, they are rough and bold and delicate. Honest and honest, but cunning.
When the desolate Qiangqu spread all over the banks of the Baishui River. The woods under the moon are already full of shadows.
The rattan soldiers were very cautious, approaching this shabby-looking military village carefully. If it weren't for the last-minute elephants. Today they will be able to win the war during the day.
The Chinese people are always rich, they have food, treasure, and beautiful women. And they didn't come from afar, not for the so-called distant relatives. Everything is a gimmick, and there are only two words at the root, and that is profit.
rob the treasures of the Chinese people and rob them of their grain. Snatch their beautiful women, rob these Chinese people of everything. In order to achieve the goal of getting something for nothing, they climbed thousands of mountains and rivers. I came here with this simple dream of making a fortune.
Yun Yue thought about many possibilities, but she didn't figure it out. These Lingnan savages have crossed most of Sichuan, and what kind of trouble are they going to make when they come to Guangyuan?
Guangyuan Baishui Pass, here is an important pass of the Golden Bull Ancient Road. What are these guys doing all the way here? Act as a car bandit and road rage to rob passing vehicles, or block the road and set up a card to forcibly collect tolls?
The problem is that these guys have not received the legal approval of the Great Qin Imperial Court here, and thousands of people dare to come to Great Qin to engage in special operations. There are tens of thousands of people, so they have to go to Xianyang to raise funds to build houses.
Daqin will never allow such a thing to happen, and when the time comes, the anti-crime and anti-evil action will be launched. These undocumented rebels will be torn to shreds by the powerful Qin Empire's war machine. I have to say that the commander of the other side has a pig brain.
The vine armor soldiers were getting closer and closer to the military village, but they were still silent. No one spoke, no one even gave orders. The whole offensive formation is very much like a swarm of ants pounced on its prey, proceeding in an orderly manner in the chaos.
Due to the loss of too many men in the afternoon, the military fortress was very poorly built. There is a watchtower in the middle, on which are hung with gas death lanterns. Around the watchtower, there are large or small military tents. The walled wall is more like a fence, because of the lack of manpower, and even less time. There were no trenches dug at all, and naturally no bamboo sticks were inserted.
However, there are still horses and deer bars, and there are as many as two rows around this military village. There are also two watermelon-sized air dead wind lamps hanging on the pillars on both sides of the road left in the middle, swaying left and right under the blowing of the cold wind on a cold night.
The vine armor soldiers observed, and the two Qin soldiers were huddled together under the angry wind lamp. The cold wind blew their robes and swayed, and it was evident that the two men had fallen asleep from the fatigue of the day.
With a wave of his hand, seven or six rattan armor soldiers sneaked over. "Woo ......!" The blowpipe silently fired the poison dart dart.
The poison dart was inserted into the bodies of the two Qin soldiers, and the two soldiers seemed to tremble twice. Then he did not move, and the man who was the leader saw that he had succeeded, and did not delay any longer. With a wave of his hand, more than 2,000 rattan armor soldiers entered Yunyue's military village, these guys were holding sharp blades, and when they saw the military tent, they poked indiscriminately. There were even two or three hundred people, who went straight to Yunyue's Chinese army tent. They knew that in the largest tent, there were also the most good things.
They guessed the beginning, not the end.
A javelin with fire crossed a graceful arc and fell into the tent of the Chinese army, before the rattan armor soldiers could shout the words "ambush". The flames "soared", and the orange flames were like the smile of death. These rattan soldiers are scurrying around like rats doused with gasoline and lit on them. Behind everyone, an orange flame was dragged.
Wails and screams continued one after another, and screams resounded. These rattan soldiers finally broke their silence and shouted in Lingnan vernacular. A few rattan armor soldiers had just fled to the gate of the camp, and another javelin with fire was in flames, and the two Qin soldiers burned violently. The splattering flames instantly engulfed the few vine armor soldiers who ran out.
Where is this Qin soldier, it is clearly a broken skin bag filled with fire oil. Inside those military tents, there were also some scarecrows in leather armor, which could be regarded as just dipping into fire. Before and after, there was no tea effort, and the inside of the military village was already full of fire. Everywhere there are burning, dummies, fake horses, watchtowers, military tents...... Almost everything is burning.
The vine armor soldiers wept and screamed. At this moment, they are no longer the army that they defeated in the afternoon, they have completely become roast pigs.
The rattan armor on the rattan armor soldiers is made from the wild vines collected from the 100,000 mountains. After being woven into rattan armor by skilled craftsmen, and soaked in tung oil for 7749 days, this is considered to be formed. This kind of armor is low in cost and slow in effect, and the most important thing is that this armor is very lightweight. The protection is not bad, but in terms of weight, it is much lighter than iron armor.
This armor has many advantages, but the disadvantages are also prominent. Because of the long soaking in tung oil, the rattan armor is almost soaked with tung oil. It has reached the point where it is dipped in fire, and it is not difficult to understand why the rattan armor soldiers do not light torches. They didn't march into the village and set it on fire, if they did, I'm afraid they would burn themselves before Yun Yue could make a move.
The military village has become a sea of fire, and the vine armor soldiers are like small rivers in the ocean, which are undergoing the baptism of the storm. The boats screamed and perished, despite the fact that they were still burning. Fire erupted from their noses, eyes, and mouths. Large drops of human oil were roasted and turned into new fuel, making the flame even bigger.
On a small hillside two miles away, Yun Yue watched it all with a telescope. Behind him were many Qiang soldiers. They were all shivering in the cold wind, and although the flames in the military fortress were great, the heat wave could not be extinguished. Those wounded soldiers were even more pitiful, suffering such injuries and sleeping in the wilderness. There is no tetanus vaccine these days, and more than half of these soldiers may not see the sun tomorrow morning.
But for the sake of victory, Yun Yue had to make this decision. Burn these damn vine armor soldiers and make everything the way it should be.
"Let's get started!" Yun Yue commanded, and immediately a rocket shot into the air. Drawing a graceful arc, almost at the same time. Two fiery dragons lit up in the woods!
The knights of the swords put down their swords and raised their bows. At their feet, a small fire burned. As soon as the arrow in his hand swept through the fire, the arrow burst into flames.
The rocket seemed to have eyes, and shot at the vine armor soldiers who were waiting outside to respond. Every time one person is shot, a fire will soon ignite. The rattan armor soldiers screamed and fled in all directions, but the arrows of the bearded sword knights were not covered. The tower, in particular, is like a sniper. Arrows are shot one after the other.
In a few moments, a group of people running with flames appeared in front of the tower.
Some people began to take off their rattan armor, and this thing was so afraid of fire that it almost caught fire on fire. For the sake of your life, it's better to take off the insurance.
"Kill! Avenge Ao Ye. ”
The sound of horses' hooves rang out, the snow was bright and the saber was unsheathed, and it was another night of killing. Blood and fire will be the main theme of this night. (To be continued.) )
