Chapter 804: Fire Attack

If Jin Yongsan appeared in front of Li Chen now, Li Chen would definitely not hesitate to chop Jin Yongsan alive, being deceived by a person he trusted, even the calmest person would be angry.

However, Li Chen is the commander of the first army after all, and he was not carried away by anger at the moment of crisis, and Jin Yongsan could not be found at this time, and the situation at this time did not allow Li Chen to consider other issues, after analyzing his current situation, Li Chen not only gave up the idea of chasing and killing Jin Yongsan, but also ruled out the possibility of retaking Songpu City.

As Zhen Qian thought, after Li Chen learned of the loss of Songpu City, what he thought of was how to reduce his guilt to the lightest, although the reason for the loss of Songpu City could be blamed on Jin Yongsan's treason and defection to the enemy, but Li Chen, as the main general, wanted to get through this difficulty without guilt.

Then whether you have military power in your hand has become the only criterion for whether you can save your life!

Fujiwara's death was also a huge blow to Li Chen, which not only pushed Li Chen to the edge of the cliff, but also made Fujiwara Nakamaro hate the Silla army even more.

What a sinister scheme!

As soon as Li Chen thought of Fujiwara Shuxiong dying at his hands, a cold sweat broke out all over his body, and he was likely to become a political victim.

The more Li Chen thought about it, the more scared he became, even if Li Chen was a political idiot, he knew that he was being calculated.

Someone wanted to kill the opponent with his own hands, and this opponent was likely to be nearby and watched coldly, Li Chen was the first to think of the opposition of the Wa State, and it was these people who instigated the Silla State to send troops to attack the Wa State. Now that the Silla army is preparing to withdraw from Seekaido, it makes sense that these people will naturally not let go of the Silla army and deepen the hatred between Silla and Fujiwara Nakamaro.

"Speed up the new army, and we must rush to Saga Town before dawn!"

Five or six hours had passed since Li Chen led his troops to chase and kill the Japanese people outside the city, and if it weren't for the loss of Matsuura Castle, this army would have rested in Fujiwara's camp for one night before returning to Matsuura Castle.

Since all this is a trap, it is naturally impossible to continue the implementation of the previous plan, and the only way is to rush back to Dangjin Port as soon as possible.

However, I was still more than 200 miles away from Karatsu Port, so I naturally couldn't rush back to Karatsu Port in one day, so I needed to find a place to rest on the way, and Saga Town on the way was naturally the best place.

Of course, Li Chen didn't know that on the morning when he went out of the city to attack, Saga Town had already been lost. If Li Chen knew that Saga Town was also lost, he would definitely not choose to rush back to Karatsu Port from Saga Town, but would choose to go north and bypass Matsuura City, which is why Zhen Qian would suddenly occupy Saga Town before the whole plan.

The two-hour rapid march made the 3,000 Silla army tired and tired, but in the current situation, even if Li Chen knew that he couldn't do it, he had to do it.

The 3,000 Silla army did not know that Songpu City had been lost, and they dared not speak out in anger at Li Chen's abnormal behavior, and they were lazy, and those scouts sent out to explore the way were scolding and scolding with black mouths, and they were not far from the large army at all, and the news that came back was also the same: no enemy situation was found in the front, everything was normal!

Li Chen saw it in his eyes, and he couldn't say it, if he let his three thousand soldiers know that his back road was cut off, although it was impossible to mutiny, but the absolute army's heart was completely scattered, and he could only turn a blind eye and look at the sparse team around him, which was two or three miles long, and he could only pray silently in his heart.

The Silla army walked all the way, and suddenly, Li Chen's heart jumped suddenly, and his eyes subconsciously looked around, only to see that his army had already walked into a stretch of hilly area.

The surrounding hills are not too high, and the hills are covered with sparse shrubs, but the light is good tonight, and you can see the top of the hills as far as the eye can see.

The bad premonition lingered like a nightmare, such terrain was not a good place for an ambush, and the news that had just come back from the front made Li Chen relax his mind a little, and he thought that he was suspicious?

"Swift through the hills ahead......!"

Li Chen was still thinking about whether after passing through this hill, let his soldiers rest for half an hour, and he should be able to rush to Saga Town before dawn, and then rest for another day, and there should be no problem in returning to Karatsu Port.

But before Li Chen's words were finished, he felt that the surrounding flames were soaring, and countless torches were lit from both sides, instantly illuminating the night as if it were day.

"Not good! ...... ambush! ”

At this time, more than half of the 3,000 Silla army had entered the hilly area, and Li Chen was worried that there would be a riot during the night march, so he fell behind the rear of the army to supervise the formation, which made Li Chen not fall into danger at the first time.

But Li Chen's good luck ended here!

"Don't panic, it's just a group of widows, rush over!"

Li Chen knew that the scope of this hilly area was not large, if it was under normal circumstances, it would be almost impossible to set up an ambush in this terrain, the terrain between Saga Town and Matsuura City was gentle, and there was a flat official road connection, which was why Li Chen chose to rush to Saga Town overnight.

On the contrary, the road leading from Saga Town to Karatsu Port is a bit rough, as long as Li Chen can reach Saga Town as soon as possible, even if there are pursuers behind him, there is no need to worry.

But Li Chen never dreamed that the enemy would ambush him in the most unlikely place, but Li Chen was not too alarmed, there was no formed Japanese army in Xikaido, and the rest was either the private army of some small lords, or the resistance army composed of some hungry and red-eyed Japanese people, and the combat effectiveness was a little higher than that of the defenseless people, compared with the Silla army that had been battled like a wolf and a tiger, if the Silla army did not attack these people, these people should burn high incense, and they even dared to sneak attack themselves, this is not a mouse licking the cat's ass- Looking for death?

The appearance of the enemy on the hill caused the 3,000 Silla army to panic for a short time, but when he heard Li Chen's loud shout, he immediately calmed down and formed a dense defensive formation.

As soon as the Silla army calmed down from the chaos, huge fireballs appeared on the hills and rushed down the hills.

At this time, it was the time of the intersection of winter and spring, the weather was dry, the snow on the ground had just melted, and there was a soft feeling of kicking on it, what was wrong with these Silla soldiers on the ground, and when the fireball on the top of the mountain was pushed down, the feet of these Silla soldiers were immediately ignited, as if they were in a sea ......of fire.

The dense defensive formation of the Silla army was immediately engulfed in a sea of fire, and the Silla army, which reacted faster, rushed to the slopes on both sides, trying to occupy the tops of the mountains on both sides!
