410.Chapter 410: Winter Thunder
On the mountain ridge on the right side of the road, Yuan Shu stood under the Huang Luo umbrella, looking at Chen Xujun and Liu Bei, who were surrounded by flames.
Although he regretted in his heart, Chen Xu did not fall for the plan.
But being able to burn Liu Bei's three brothers here is not a very happy thing.
Especially after seeing Zhang Fei's bravery, Yuan Shu hoped even more to be burned to death, this fierce general that made him fearful.
As for Liu Bei's betrayal of Yuan Shu and his going to Pusaka to inform, Yuan Shu hated him even more. If he can kill Liu Bei, he can also vent the hatred in Yuan Shu's heart.
Looking at the people struggling in the flames, Yuan Shu's face bloomed with a bright smile.
There are two flowers, one on each branch.
said that Zhang Fei felt remorse in his heart, thinking that it was because of himself that Liu Bei was in danger, and immediately wanted to draw his sword and kill himself.
Seeing this, Liu Bei was horrified, hurriedly stepped forward to hug Zhang Fei, and said, "Why did the third brother do this? Although the three of us have different surnames, we cannot be born on the same day, the same month, and the same year, but we are willing to die on the same day, the same month, and the same year. ”
"If you kill yourself here, how can Yun Chang and I live alone?"
"We have not been cornered yet, if the general learns that we are trapped here, he will definitely send troops to rescue."
"What's more, although we are in ambush now, we can't afford to die and come back to life, fighting to the death."
As soon as he said a few words, Liu Bei inhaled a lot of smoke in his mouth, choking him to cough. However, his hands still hugged Zhang Fei.
Guan Yu also came to Zhang Fei's side and reprimanded angrily: "Even if the eldest husband dies, he will die vigorously, how can he die by killing himself?" ”
"If Yide acts like this again, don't blame me for not recognizing you, the third brother!"
Hearing the words of the two, Zhang Feihu burst into tears.
He looked at Yuan Shu on the mountain through the firelight, and immediately shouted at the soldiers beside him: "We have been forced into a desperate situation, and if we stay here, we will definitely die and live." ”
"In that case, why don't we rush up the mountain and kill Yuan Shu to get out of trouble?"
Now there are droughts, and the grass and trees are dry. In addition, it is winter, and the grass and trees in the vicinity that lack water and dry up are even more abusive when they are on fire.
Therefore, it did not take long for the fire to sweep through the entire mountain road, and many soldiers were burned alive on the mountain road.
Among these soldiers, there were not only the troops under Wen Zhao's command, but also those soldiers of Yuan who had no time to retreat. At this time, they were also abandoned by Yuan Shu, struggling in the fire and smoke.
Everyone originally thought that they would definitely die, but after hearing Zhang Fei's words, whether it was the soldiers under Wen Zhao or the abandoned Yuan Jun, their eyes showed light again.
Liu Bei looked at the mountain range next to him, although it was extremely steep, he was able to climb up. Although in the process of climbing the mountain, it was inevitable to suffer the blows of the Yuan army on the mountain, but it was better than being burned to death by the fire below.
Liu Bei held the double-strand sword, swung it twice in the air, and said loudly: "Brothers, maybe we didn't know each other before, maybe we were enemies before that. ”
"However, now we all have the same goal, which is to live!"
"As long as the brothers who don't want to die, they will rush to the mountain with me. Even if you are stoned to death and shot by random arrows, it is better than being burned alive here. ”
After speaking, Liu Bei actually abandoned his war horse, took the lead in crossing the sea of fire, and began to rush towards the mountain.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei glanced at each other and threw away the long weapons in their hands. Zhang Fei held a long sword, Guan Yu carried a short knife, followed Liu Bei, and rushed towards the sea of fire.
Now that they are going to climb the mountains, if they bring the Zhangba Snake Spear and the Green Dragon Glaive Knife, it will completely affect the flexibility of the two of them.
Therefore, they did not hesitate to throw away the weapon they had in hand.
Those soldiers who were originally struggling in the sea of fire, seeing the actions of Liu Bei and the others, also followed behind them.
Yuan Shu on the mountain, seeing the actions of everyone under the mountain, not only did not panic, but laughed and said: "Sure enough, as Yang Changshi expected, Liu Bei and the others were not burned to death by the flames, but they actually wanted to rush up the mountain." ”
Yang Hong had long imagined that if Liu Bei was lucky enough not to die, and saw that the roads for advance and retreat were blocked, it was very likely that he would rush up the mountain without fear of death.
With the bravery of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, plus those soldiers under the mountain, they have been forced into a dead end, and they are bound to burst out with a strong fighting spirit.
Although Yuan Jun has a lot of soldiers, he is not afraid of how much wind and waves Liu Bei and others can set off.
However, in order to be foolproof, Yang Hong still offered Yuan Shu a plan. He asked Yuan Shu to choose one, there were no trees on the top of the mountain, only the stones were exposed, but there was a place full of dead grass at the bottom of the mountain.
This location is exactly where Yuan Shu is staying now.
In this way, as long as Liu Bei and the others dare to charge above the mountain. Yuan Shu could set fire to the withered grass on the mountainside, forming a sea of fire and blocking the path of Liu Bei and the others.
As for Yuan Shu and the others standing on the mountain, because of the bare and stone-covered isolation belt, it was completely guaranteed that the fire would not spread over.
Yuan Shu looked at Liu Bei and the others, charged up the mountain without fear of death, and immediately sneered twice, and said: "Since they want to come to death, it will be enough for them." ”
Yuan Shu waved his hand, and the archers behind him immediately shot rockets at the dead grass on the mountainside. The withered grass ignited as soon as it caught fire, and in an instant, it had already surrounded half of the mountain.
Liu Bei endured the scorching heat of the fire, and finally rushed out of a sea of fire at the foot of the mountain, and came to the mountainside that had not yet been spread by the fire.
However, a round of rockets fired a salvo, and Liu Bei and the others, who had just escaped from the sea of fire, were once again surrounded by monstrous flames.
Seeing this, Liu Bei looked at the mountains that had been surrounded by fire, and was suddenly shocked and angry, looking up to the sky and sighing: "Could it be that I, Liu Bei, really want to die here?" ”
Zhang Fei also showed a look of despair in his eyes, and said regretfully: "Brother, it's all my fault, it's all my fault!" ”
He did not fear death in the slightest, but kept blaming himself.
At this time, Liu Bei recalled his life.
remembered that when he had nothing, Zhang Fei scattered all his family wealth and followed him without hesitation, and he has no regrets for so many years.
When his life was about to come to an end, Liu Bei calmed down.
He struggled to extinguish the little flames that burned on his body, and then came to Zhang Fei's side and held his hand tightly.
"Yide, whatever you do, you are my brother. I, Liu Bei, will never regret having you as a brother! ”
Then, his eyes were full of tears, and he took Guan Yu's hand again and nodded heavily.
Guan Yu was also a little emotional, and the eyes of this iron man were also a little red, and he said astringently: "Brother, I have never regretted knowing you, brother!" ”
Zhang Fei touched a handful of tears, also grabbed Guan Yu's hand, and said: "I don't want to be born on the same day and month of the same year, but I want to die on the same day and month of the same year!" ”
After speaking, the three of them looked at each other and actually laughed.
The billowing smoke, the overwhelming fire, and the painful cries of the soldiers who were burned by the fire all around could not hide the friendship between Liu Bei and the three brothers.
Facing a desperate situation, facing death. The three characters who have left their names in history have no self-pity and no panic.
Their performance is worthy of their identity.
"Hahahaha......"
The laughter of the three of them echoed in the mountains.
Seeing this, Yuan Shu said with some doubts: "Could it be that these three people were stupid by the fire?" ”
"Hey, what's going on?"
Suddenly, Yuan Shu felt that the sky was dark, and he was very puzzled in his heart.
Yang Hong looked up at the sky and found that in just a moment, the sky had become cloudy.
"This, how is this possible? After two consecutive years of drought and no drops of water, why is it suddenly cloudy today? ”
Yang Hong was inexplicably frightened in his heart, and couldn't help but shout loudly. The generals of the Yuan army also raised their heads one after another when they heard this, staring at the dark clouds in the sky in surprise.
"Boom!"
When Yuan Jun was looking up at the sky, suddenly a lightning bolt split the dark clouds, and the thunder shook the entire mountain range.
"Thunder, thunder! It's thundering in winter! ”
Everyone was terrified when they saw that there was thunder in the cold winter. In this era, thunder in winter is a sign of disaster and a great terror to come.
Yes, after hearing the thunder, even Yuan Shu himself was pale with fright.
Yang Hong was even more like he had lost his mind, and muttered to himself: "There are seven things in the sky, there are five elements in the earth, if the five things are violated, the heaven and the earth will see the difference, and if the five things are violated, the heaven and the earth will be different!" ”
"The thunder in the first month of spring, the people do not cook, and the epidemic is mourning!"
muttered a few inexplicable words, and Yang Hong suddenly shouted: "Your Majesty, the thunder in the first month, the chaos of yin and yang, and the disorder of the four seasons are a great omen!" ”
"It is precisely because someone goes against the will of God and goes against the sky that makes this abnormal behavior."
"Bang Bang!"
As soon as Yang Hong's words fell, he felt a chill on his face, he just touched it, and found that the raindrops the size of beans fell from the sky.
He shouted: "Your Majesty, the will of heaven is like this, Liu Bei can't die today, he can't die!" ”
Even though Yuan Shu has no one in his eyes, he is still a little in awe of God. When he heard Yang Hong's words, he also felt panicked.
The world has been dry for two years, and not a drop of water has fallen. But today, when Liu Bei and the others were just besieged and were about to be burned to death by the fire, they actually became dark clouds and heavy rain.
In any case, it will make everyone think about it.
"Whoa!"
The rain became heavier and heavier, and the sea of fire above the mountain road was also extinguished by the heavy rain, and wisps of green smoke rose up. It didn't take long for even the green smoke to disappear.
"This, this ......"
Unlike the horror of Yuan Shu and the others, Liu Bei, who was trapped by the sea of fire, and those soldiers, who were desperate for their lives, couldn't help but cheer.
At this moment, a shout of killing came from outside.
Vaguely, everyone heard the voice of 'Xuande hold on, reinforcements are coming'.
The heavy rain poured on his body, Yuan Shu shivered, and hurriedly shouted: "Retreat, the whole army retreat!" ”
