Chapter 169 Burning Mountain
Another gust of wind blew Cheng Yuanzhi's hair messy.
"Northwest wind! The woods are thick! The weather is dry! Not good! If at this time, the champion of Wen leads the mountain to burn the mountain, then all my 50,000 men will be buried in the sea of fire!"
Cheng Yuanzhi's eyes stared, and his heart was almost raised to his throat. He immediately ordered the whole army to withdraw and go down the mountain.
"Report! Newspaper!!"
Before Cheng Yuanzhi's words were said, suddenly, a yellow scarf gasped and ran to Cheng Yuanzhi.
Cheng Yuanzhi seemed to guess what had happened. He stared at the scout in front of him and shouted in his heart not to do it!
"Report to General Cheng, there is a team of tens of thousands of court soldiers and horses rushing to Daxing Mountain. Can we organize soldiers and horses to meet the enemy immediately?"
Cheng Yuanzhi seemed to have been hit hard on the head. He took a few steps back, but he didn't care to think too much and shouted fiercely.
"Quick! Hurry up! Pass me the password! The whole army immediately withdrew and went down the mountain!"
"Ah? General Cheng, shall we run away without fighting?
"Fight you, you big-headed ghost! At this time, it is a northwest wind, and the weather is dry. If the 10,000 court soldiers and horses come to set fire to the mountain, then we will all be buried in the sea of fire!"
"Ah!! Me! Me! I'll send the order immediately!"
Cheng Yuanzhi's words scared the scouts to death on the spot. After speaking clearly, he ran to the tents behind him on tiptoe.
Soon the whole Daxing Mountain was in chaos, and countless yellow scarf thieves gathered in a hurry. They were all ordered to withdraw the camp and go down the mountain, which made them confused. However, Cheng Yuanzhi is a general in the army, and his order is not something that they can question.
"General Cheng! Why did you withdraw from the camp and go down the mountain? Do you want to escape without fighting?"
Those soldiers did not dare to question, but as a deputy general, Deng Mao dared. He came to Cheng Yuanzhi with momentum and shouted with a accusatory attitude.
"Presumptuous! I am a general in the army. When will it be your turn to question my order!"
Cheng Yuanzhi's words, just halfway through, suddenly under Daxing Mountain, countless small fires gathered and flew to Daxing Mountain like a meteor shower. Suddenly, a fire broke out in Daxing Mountain, and the fire spread extremely fast. The flames opened the sky, and the whole Daxing Mountain became red.
"It's over!"
Cheng Zhiyuan saw the bright fire everywhere on the mountain, and his face suddenly turned blue. When Deng Mao saw the fire, he immediately understood why Cheng Yuanzhi withdrew from the camp and went down the mountain. He opened his mouth wide and his face was full of urgency.
"We have a large number of people, and now there are fires everywhere, so it is not appropriate to withdraw together. Deng Mao! You and I each lead half of the soldiers and horses and withdraw from the left and right directions. If you can escape, we will find a great virtuous division to cooperate with them!"
"Yes! General Cheng!"
At this time, Deng Mao did not dare to question Cheng Yuanzhi again. He immediately led half of the soldiers and horses and retreated down the mountain to the right. Cheng Yuanzhi led the other half of the soldiers and horses to the left.
Balabala.
The fire was ruthless. The yellow scarf army ran all the way and was attacked by flames. Many violently burning trees collapsed, killing or burning many yellow scarf thieves. At this moment, the whole Daxing Mountain has become a oven. The temperature in the mountain keeps rising, and it is so hot that it feels like it is about to be cooked.
The night sky is illuminated by Daxing Mountain, which is on fire everywhere. Wen Han fought with a drum at the foot of the mountain. Ten thousand court soldiers and horses were divided into five teams, each with 2,000 people, each holding bows and arrows, and shooting a rocket into Daxing Mountain in turn. The sound of drums, bows and strings, the sound of arrows breaking through the void, and the sound of fire symphonic with each other, turning into a life-threatening song.
It is said that when Deng Mao led half of the soldiers and horses and rushed to the bottom of the mountain under the attack of the raging waves of flames, he lost most of the original 25,000 troops, and there were less than 15,000 people left. Some of them were burned to death, some were smashed to death by fallen trees, but more were trampled to death by their military colleagues.
The yellow scarf thief has not been trained. At the critical moment of life and death, everyone is only about running for their lives. Whoever is in front of him will push hard. Many people walking in front were either pushed to the ground by the people behind or pushed down the mountain by them, and some were even pushed into the fire and burned to death.
As the leading general, Deng Mao repeatedly stopped the ruthless behavior of sergeants, but it was useless. He was so angry that Deng Mao killed 20 or 30 people in a row, which was slightly restrained.
"Woo-hoo! Damn it!! You bastard!!"
Before fighting with the soldiers and horses in the court, tens of thousands of people died. Deng Mao, who was still in high spirits, couldn't stand it. He was unwilling to look up to the sky and roar loudly.
"I am the imperial lieutenant Xu Huang, Xu Gongming! According to the order of our general, I have been waiting here for a long time! Anti-national and thieves, why don't you get off the horse and surrender quickly? Do you want me to take your head to know it's power?
Suddenly, a team of 2,000 gunmen rushed out of the dark mountains and forests, and the leading generals were Xu Huang and Xu Gongming, the lieutenants under the command of Wen Han.
"Wow! The court is mediocre and incompetent, and the people's life is worse than death. You ignore the life and death of the people in the world, but you encourage the mediocrity of the court, which is a righteous and ruthless move. Don't be arrogant. Look at me, Deng Mao, take your life.
Deng Mao was furious, sat down on the horse, and rushed to Xu Huang with a gun. Xu Huang sneered, his eyes were full of disdain, waved the big axe in his hand, and rode a horse to meet him.
Bum! The big axe split the copper gun, and suddenly Mars appeared everywhere.
"This teenager is so big!"
Deng Mao said in his heart that there was a sharp pain from the tiger's mouth. The cold light flashed in Xu Huang's eyes, and the axe was raised again and shouted! Deng Mao quickly raised his gun to block it. Xu Huang's axe was fierce, as if it could break through the void. The axe blade became sharper and smashed Deng Mao's blade.
"Ah!"
Deng Mao screamed sadly. It turned out that the blade fragments broken by Xu Huang's big axe splashed into Deng Mao's right eye. At this time, Deng Mao dared not fight with this murderous teenager again. He endured the terrible pain, turned the horse's head, shook the horse whip wildly, and quickly fled to the self-armed formation.
"Wow! Xiao Xiao Anti-thief, look at Grandpa Zhang's spearhead!"
Deng Mao rode his horse to the road. Suddenly, there seemed to be a thunder, and the sound was so loud that it gave people a feeling of collapse. The sound was so loud that he chased behind him, and his ears rang.
And Deng Mao was even worse. He was so scared that he almost fell off the horse. He finally stabilized his body. He turned his head and looked at it. He was scared again, and his soul seemed to fly.
The black man is like an evil spirit, eight feet long, with a leopard's head and eyes, a swallow's head and a tiger's beard, which is terrible. The horse came, as if he was angry all over. The black man straightened out his eight snake spears. At the beginning of his hand, Deng Mao's heart was frightened by the thorn. Deng Mao roared and turned over and fell off his horse. It was lifeless.
"Hahaha! Kill it!"
The black man killed Deng Mao, laughed happily, and ran his horse to the yellow scarf thief army, suddenly blowing a black fury, like entering no man's land. The yellow scarf thief army, who had just been burned by the fire, fled for his life. His heart had not yet stabilized, and he saw Deng Mao, the leading general, die. He was immediately scared and confused and at a loss.
The black man's horse was in the thieves' army, dancing snakes and spears, killing everywhere with blood. The whole 15,000 yellow scarf thief army was beaten by the power of one person and had no power to fight back, and the formation was in chaos.
When Xu Huang saw this, he was secretly surprised by the power of this black man, which was almost comparable to the bravery of his second brother Guan Yunchang.
"Third brother! Don't go deep into the enemy's array. It's dangerous!"
At this time, from the direction where the black man came, there came a soldier and horse of about 2,000 people.
The leader is a man with a beautiful white face and a little bookish. This life is more strange. The body is seven feet and five inches long, with two ears and shoulders, hands over the knees, the eyes can look at the ears, the face is like crown jade, and the lips are like fat. It gives people a feeling of compassion and benevolence.
The black man heard the big-eared and white-faced man shouting, but he didn't stop killing people. He didn't mean to retreat at all. He laughed.
"Hahaha. Brother, don't worry, I'm killing happily! Although there are many yellow scarf thieves, they are all meat targets that will not resist. Big brother doesn't need to worry. Let's see how I can kill these thieves and add merit to my brother.
"Oops. The third brother was impulsive and did not listen to people's advice. Second brother, you and I will lead the army quickly. If it slows down half and the third brother suffers losses, what should it be?
The big-eared and white-faced man was worried. What he called his second brother was a big man who was slightly more powerful than the black man just now. He was magnificent. He was nine feet tall, with a waist of twelve circumferences, and the horrible big axe in his hand was a big axe of 180 catties.
Hearing that the big-eared white-faced man was so worried, he couldn't help showing a trace of emotion in his eyes. Now he nodded.
"Big brother, don't worry, I'll go over and fight for the third brother. You led the army and then pressed the battle.
Kui Weihan sat down on the horse and rushed to the yellow scarf thief army with great momentum. The yellow scarf thief who stood in front of him saw the huge axe in Kui's hand, which was so big that he could beat several people to death. He was shocked by the power of pulling up the mountain and suddenly fled around. Kui Weihan had a cold face and went down with an axe, as if he was about to break the ground. Many people who were attacked by him were irregularly cut off, and it was horrible.
