I saw that the small Guancheng was crowded with thieves who tried to avoid the fire, but were suffocated to death by the smoke, they curled up in various postures, twisted, and hideous, and the circumference of the Guancheng was only a few hundred steps, and it was full, I am afraid that there would not be two or three thousand people!

The fire on Huanglu Ridge had been extinguished on the night when Wang Guoliang, Yi Bangcai and others led the army of Shanxi Town to Huanglu Pass. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

However, the forest fires that spread from Huangluling to the west and south continued to burn for two days and two nights!

To the south of the middle section of the entire Luliang Mountain, all the mountains and jungles were shrouded in thick smoke.

The mountains and forests where the fire had spread turned into bare black slopes, and all life was gone, leaving only thick stumps that continued to smoke.

The thick smoke on the Huanglu Ridge has long been blown away by the cool north wind in the direction of Guandi Mountain, but the sky on the Huanglu Ridge has not really opened and fogged away, on the contrary, for two consecutive days, the weather is still gloomy, so that everyone on the Huanglu Ridge feels heavy and depressed.

Without a knife and a gun fighting, but with a fire that has gone out of control, burned to death the enemy entrenched on the top of the mountain, Shanxi town officials and soldiers are happy for this victory at the same time, but also let the officers and soldiers who have seen the tragic situation on the mountain, the heart is somewhat unbearable.

After all, among them, there are only a few leaders of thieves who really kill officials and rebel and are heinous, and seven or eight percent of them are all hungry people in Shanxi who have been coerced into thieves and have no way out. ”

Of course, those who can realize this problem are the minority of the minority, and most people feel uncomfortable in their hearts, but it is just because there are too many people burned to death on the mountain.

But if it is found that there are still those who have not been burned to death, then the Shanxi officials and soldiers who can't bear it at this time will probably rush over immediately and hack them to death, and there will be no softness at all.

In fact, this is human nature, good and evil are intertwined, complex and changeable.

In two days, Wang Guoliang commanded the Shanxi Zhen Army under his command, cleaned up more than 2,500 corpses in Huanglu Pass, and found a flat land with thick soil on the slope of the mountain not far away, and buried them all.

Of course, in the past two days, there were six similar burial pits on the eastern slopes of the Huanglu Mountains, and each of them buried at least 2,000 bodies that had been burned beyond recognition.

The thieves who were captured before were also driven up the mountain by the officers and soldiers in the camp under the mountain, helping to collect the corpses everywhere, and the tragic situation on the Huanglu Ridge made the thieves who escaped one by one stunned, like walking corpses, driven by anything, and desperately digging pits and burying people everywhere.

These thieves captured and recovered Wang Shixuan's stainless steel Qi knife, the decoration of the handle had been burned, but the blade was black and shiny, still glowing with cold light.

found this Qi knife, and also found the body of the "Flying Tiger" Gao Jinku huddled in a ravine with his head hugged.

Wang Guoliang asked Yibang to cut off Gao Jinku's fleshy head, and took the Qi knife to the opposite ravine to pay tribute to the graves of Wang Shixuan and Liu Guozhen, and buried the Qi knife in front of their graves, which was considered broken, in order to show that they and their tragic deaths were completed.

As for Wu Yangui, the "king of the whole world", before the fire spread up the mountain in the early morning of that day, after giving a series of orders to put out the fire, he fled west with hundreds of guards around him.

Therefore, Wang Guoliang asked the captured thief army Xiaotou to come to Guancheng to identify the body of the thief leader, but his whereabouts have never been found.

However, the task of capturing Huangluling has been completed, and the news of capturing Huangluling has been sent out at noon on the day when Wang Guoliang led his troops to Huangluling.

Now this Huangluguan City, which is stuck on the top of Huangluling and has a circumference of more than 500 steps, has become the location of the new camp of Wang Guoliang.

The wooden buildings on the castle have been burned down, but the walls made of earth and stone are still intact, and the corpses and debris in them have been cleared and continued to be used as a garrison for the officers and soldiers.

Two days after ascending Huangluling, Wang Guoliang led 2,000 troops from Shanxi Town to enter Guancheng, and temporarily set up tents on the city wall and in the middle of the city to settle down temporarily.

At noon on the day when the garrison was settled, Wang Guoliang took Yi Bangcai and Li Xianzhong to the highest point of Guancheng and went west to observe the fire.

The Luliang Mountains have been dry for several years, and the weather is dry to the extreme, not to mention the fierce fire oil or kerosene incendiary bombs produced by the Daming Military Institute, I am afraid that it is a small spark, which may cause a mountain fire.

However, now that the northeast wind has turned into a north wind, even with the dry heat in the air before, it has also become slightly cold, Wang Guoliang looked up at the sky full of haze, full of doubts, and he didn't know if this was the smoke that had not yet drifted in the sky, or if the weather was really cloudy.

"Why does this weather look so cloudy, is it God's eyes open, it's going to rain?"

Hearing Wang Guoliang say such words, Yi Bang looked at the sky, first sighed, and then said with a smile: "It's been too long since it rained, and I forgot what a rainy day looks like!" ”

Li Xianzhong also smiled, and was about to answer, but suddenly heard a loud rumbling noise from the north, although it didn't rain for too long, but everyone heard it, this is thunder!

Wang Guoliang, Yi Bangcai, and Li Xianzhong turned around in an instant and headed north.

I don't know when, the dark clouds on the Huanglu Ridge are drifting from north to south.

"Is it really going to rain?!"

As soon as Wang Guoliang's words fell, he saw a lightning bolt pierce the dark clouds, and the roaring thunder came from the north again.

Soon the north wind blew on the Huanglu Ridge, and then the raindrops of beans crackled on the land that had just been burned by the fire, stirring up smoke and dust everywhere!

A moment later, bursts of cheers and boiling voices came from Huangluling: "It's raining!" It's raining! Oh my god it's raining! ”

The soldiers inside and outside the city were cheering in the rain, and even the prisoners, who had just been busy working, put down their work and knelt on the ground and shouted to the sky.

This burst of excited cheers was even more lasting and intense than the cheers of the soldiers of Shanxi town in the early morning three days ago, when the mountain fire had just spread.

No one sheltered from the rain, including Wang Guoliang, Yi Bangcai, Li Xianzhong, and other generals, all of whom raised their heads and closed their eyes, enjoying this long-lost heavy rain.

The smoke and fire have been burning for many days, and the soldiers of Shanxi Town, who have long been gray and smelly, have also washed away the dirt and fatigue of many days in the heavy rain.

The heavy rain fell from noon to night, and by the morning of the next day it became a dripping light rain, and this light rain continued for two whole days.

The dry ravine at the foot of the Huanglu Ridge was soon filled with rainwater left on the mountain, flowing through the large camp of the Shanxi Zhenjun at the foot of the mountain, and along the valley all the way to the east, into the larger mountain stream, roaring through the water gate that had dried up for many days under the Golden Lock, and continuing eastward, injecting Fenshui.

This long-lost heavy rain not only fell on Huangluling, but also the entire land of Shanxi, the entire land of northern Shaanxi, and even all parts of Beizhili and Jingshi, also rained heavily in the same period of time.

The rainwater flows into the creek, and the creek flows into the creek, and the small river that flows from the eastern foot of Luliang Mountain and the western foot of Taihang Mountain is finally injected with Fenshui.

The Fenshui, which had been cut off for many days due to the ongoing drought, regained its vitality within a few days and flowed bustling southward.

On the basin plains on both sides of the Fenshui, the grass seedlings that were about to die soon radiated new vitality, adding patches of tender green to this disaster-ridden land.

This heavy rain, which benefited Shanxi and northern Shaanxi, was a blessing from God for the land and people who had endured drought for a long time in these areas of northern Daming, but it was a bit too unfortunate for Li Banghua, the old superintendent of the pavilion who was personally commanding the army to besiege Shikou when the heavy rain first fell.

Outside Shikou Town, the artillery positions of the mine camp, which were constantly being shelled, were thoroughly watered by the sudden and unexpected heavy rain, which interrupted the offensive of Shimen Pass led by Lu Xiangsheng and Li Bei and others, and at the same time unexpectedly saved Shikou Pass, which was about to fall.
