Chapter 109: Burning Wutai

The sound of the explosion tore apart the silence of the night.

Wu Sugu, Liu Yanzong, Jiagu Xie Nu and Guo Qizhong, who were sleeping, were shocked to hear the explosion resounding in the night sky, shaking the ground for a while, and they were all shocked to rush out of their respective rooms after waking up from the woman's belly or from drunkenness.

After a rush of questioning, when Liu Yanzong saw that one of his lieutenants had lost an arm and still ran to him to make a report and passed out. The four of them were all stunned on the spot.

It wasn't until a moment later that Liu Yanzong was the first to wake up from shock and anger. As soon as he came to his senses, he gave the order to search every house in the city.

Wusu Valley and Jiagu Xie Nu, as well as Guo Qizhong, had seen the power of the explosive flame bomb, and also issued the same order after Liu Yanzong's order was issued, strictly ordering his subordinates to inspect every corner of the city. After being sure that there would be no more flame bombs hidden by the Red Turban Army, the soldiers of the Jin Army under his command were allowed to rest again......

However, what the four golden generals didn't expect was that just as Wutai City was in chaos, almost all the Golden Dog soldiers joined in the action of digging the corners of the wall and digging the roots of the wall. Outside the city, in the three directions of the west gate, the north gate and the south gate, three forces of red turban cavalry suddenly appeared.

These cavalry of the Red Turban Army, galloping to the moat, actually shot several rounds of arrows at the city wall with strong bows and crossbows. When the Jin soldiers thought that there would be a follow-up infantry army to attack the city, they all roared away and disappeared.

When the Jin soldiers in charge of the defense of the city had just breathed a sigh of relief, three waves of red turban troops rushed to the moat at a gallop, and then quickly dispersed after a round of arrow rain attacks......

It wasn't until dawn that the alarm bells in the city and the gongs in the city finally stopped.

All the golden soldiers in the city were awakened when they slept most soundly, and when the sun rose and the warm sunlight poured on them, many people fell on the spot, leaned against the wall and went to see Zhou Gong in a groggy state.

Seeing that his subordinates were exhausted, mentally and physically exhausted, and almost collapsed by the tossing and turning in the middle of the night, the four golden generals didn't want to force anything anymore, so they had to order some still energetic Jin soldiers to continue to guard strictly, and after patrolling the whole city, they all ran back to their rooms to fall asleep......

Disruptive warfare, tunnel warfare, this is just the beginning.

As soon as the hour arrived, Liu Xing, who was on the top of the hill outside the city, estimated that the Jin soldiers and even the four enemy generals should be exhausted, and even most of them had fallen asleep, and then issued a series of orders one after another.

With Liu Xingxin's order issued, on the highest peak in the south of Wutai City, suddenly fifty flying kites took off into the air, flew to a hundred zhang high in Wutai City, and threw a black stone rain towards the ground.

The golden soldiers in charge of patrolling in the city thought that the red turban soldiers in the sky were throwing explosive bombs into the city again, and dodged in all directions in surprise.

When the flying kite swept by, many Jin soldiers gradually calmed down from their fright, and when they saw clearly what the black rain was that fell to the ground, they were all confused by the second monk: it was actually a piece of huge stone coal that fell out one after another.

Just when those golden soldiers looked at the gravel and charcoal scattered all over the streets and alleys of the city, they didn't know what was going on, and fifty flying kites swept into the sky.

Countless flashes of crystal light flashed brightly, and when fifty flying kites swept through the city, bursts of tung oil turned into rain and fell into Wutai City.

Only then did Jin Bing realize that the Red Turban Army was going to burn Wutai City.

Without waiting for his exclamation to wake up the sleeping golden soldiers, outside the north and south gates and the west gate, three units of the Red Turban Army suddenly appeared.

In each unit, the cavalry is in front and the infantry is in the rear. But it's not the same as when you go around the city at night. This time, the extra infantry that followed the cavalry were all pushing, and at a glance it was clear that the trebuchets had been made by simple methods, rushed quickly to the outer edge of the moat, beyond the range of bows and arrows.

The wind was whirring, and as soon as the cavalry of the Red Turban Army rushed to the moat, the arrows rained first, and the golden soldiers at the head of the city were so crushed that they could only hide behind the battlements and did not dare to raise their heads. When the Jin soldiers were just about to prepare to counterattack, those improvised trebuchets threw dense fireballs towards Wutai City.

Exclamations and screams rang out from Wutai City one after another. Almost instantaneously there were flames rising from all over the city, and those flames were raised by fireballs falling on the mixture of charcoal and tung oil, and in an instant they turned into raging fires that burned all over the city.

At the same time, the golden soldiers were set up in the armory in the east of the city, and suddenly more than 500 soldiers of the Red Turban Army popped out of the ground.

These more than 500 people, each of them are warrior-level soldiers with strong skills and extremely fast movements. Coming out of the armory floor, it only took a small amount of time to kill the four or five hundred gold guards in the armory.

When the nearby Jin soldiers heard the news and rushed to the armory, all they saw was the building engulfed in flames.

What the four generals of the Jin Army, who were awakened from their sleep for the second time, did not expect was that the armory was just the beginning.

In the next half an hour, four golden soldiers appeared one after another in the four army granaries in the city, and the five hundred warriors who had cultivated the Red Turban Army appeared one after another. The five hundred, with one blow, disappeared from the ground as soon as they were set on fire. In just one hour, all the four major military warehouses in the city were reduced to ashes......

……

Outside the city, on top of the West Mountain. Looking at the increasingly thick black smoke over Wutai City, and listening to the continuous and increasingly loud exclamations and shouts of the golden soldiers in the city, Liu Xing slowly turned his head to look at Zeng Weijie behind him.

"Fourth Brother Zeng, how is it? This tunnel battle plus fire and thunder attack is enjoyable, right? A bloodthirsty and cunning smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Liu Xing asked Zeng Weijie.

Nodding heavily, Zeng Weijie said a little excitedly: "Give them an empty city, and the four thieves of the golden dog will think that they have won." Hehe, no matter how they can't guess, it turns out that the marshal is going to play another trick to lure the enemy and catch turtles, and turn it all into braised dog meat. ”

"Braised dog meat." Suddenly hearing such a word, Liu Xing was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Haha...... Yes, yes, golden dog, golden dog, doesn't it become braised dog meat after braised dog? ”

Halfway through his words, Liu Xing's face turned pale: "Immediately give the order to dump tung oil into the remaining wells and canals in the city." Now that it has been successfully braised, you must not give that group of golden dogs on the same plate as Chinese food any chance to save themselves. ”

Hearing this, Zeng Weijie quickly turned around and commanded a few heads behind him.

After receiving the order, the heads left immediately. After a while, a layer of sparkling tung oil appeared on the surface of the surface of the water in the surface of the surface streams and underground springs that flowed from the mountains to the wells and canals of Gotai Castle.

As Liu Xing expected, surrounded by the fire, the Jin soldiers in the city quickly formed many small forces. As soon as the small units were assembled, some of them were temporarily in charge, and some of them were to take people to rescue the armory and granary, or to find a wellhead with water to fight the fire.

At the beginning, the water from the twelve wells in the city that was carried up by the Jin soldiers did alleviate the fire in the city. Soon, however, the fire in the city suddenly grew larger again after water from the earth's streams and underground waterways, mixed with tung oil, poured into the twelve wells and was carried up by the Jin soldiers......

The explosion soon shook the sky again.

This explosion was no longer caused by the flying kite team sent by Liu Xing or the improvised trebuchet, but by the Jin soldiers who poured gunpowder mixed with tung oil on various parts of the city that had been buried before the Red Turban Army retreated.

The explosion in this round was far more violent than the previous one. In an instant, it spread to every corner of Wutai City, killing countless golden soldiers in the city who still wanted to fight the fire.
