A huge pit appeared almost instantly between the commander's platform and the camp gate of the central camp. The three thousand armored men who were sprinting with all their strength just now were all trapped in the pit. You can see all around the pit.
There are charred wood everywhere, and thousands of dark tunnels lead from the edge of the pit to all directions. Many of the broken wooden pillars are tied with thick hemp ropes, and some of the broken pieces of wood are still there.
burning.
Xu Daofu's eyes widened and his hands were trembling slightly. He didn't know whether it was because of extreme anger or fear. Zhang Gang on the side took a long time to say: "What is this? How could this happen? How could this happen?!"
"
Xu Daofu gritted his teeth tightly, and almost every word came out from between his teeth: "Damn it, it's a crypt, it's a crypt. Why didn't I think of it! Liu Yu knew that I would be cautious with my troops, and wouldn't
There was an opportunity for an ambush, so he dug out the entire camp. The soil was only a foot thick. Under normal circumstances, as long as hundreds of soldiers stepped on it, the land within a few dozen steps would collapse!"
Zhang Gang suddenly realized: "But, there are wooden piles under these layers of soil. Liu Yu has already calculated the time for our impact, lit a fire on the wooden piles, and set up cables at the ignition point, that's it!"
"
As he spoke, he pointed to the thousands of ropes extending from the various tunnels. The terminal positions formed loops and were tied to the broken trees. He said: "When we charge, Liu
As soon as Yu ordered, the thousand ropes were pulled together, which was equivalent to the thousands of wooden stakes, and they were broken immediately, because the middle was almost broken by the fire, and it was just put on top. Without the support of these thousands of wooden stakes, within a hundred steps,
The ground will collapse immediately. It’s too cruel, too poisonous, and too perfect!”
Xu Daofu's eyes were glistening with tears. This huge pit was four or five feet deep. Inside the pit, there were all wooden stakes and sharp thorns. Those who fell in, those at the bottom were all stabbed to the core.
, even at a high point, those who were lucky enough to survive were stabbed by the long spears scattered on the ground, or had people pressing on their bodies, with little physique. The only ones who could escape with their lives were
There were less than a thousand people who fell on the top one or two floors. They were gray-headed and covered in bruises or bleeding. They were crying and trying to crawl out of the pit, but how could it be possible in a pit five feet deep?
Can you get out?!
A pungent smell, accompanied by smoke and dust, entered everyone's noses. At this moment, Xu Daofu suddenly discovered that the huge pit in front of Liu Yu was filled with yellow sulfur powder, mixed with white
The smoke and dust that rose up from the saltpeter were already yellow. Xu Daofu's eyes turned red and he shouted: "No, you can't, you can't do this!"
At some point, an extra torch appeared in Liu Yu's hand, and beside him, there were hundreds of armored soldiers. Everyone was covered in sand, but they were the same as Liu Yu.
Similarly, holding torches, they had obviously just emerged from various tunnels. Behind the commander's platform, the catapults, which were twenty steps long, had also removed their disguises. The sergeants who were being operated came out from different bunkers.
roll out.
A cold light flashed in Liu Yu's eyes: "May this raging flame burn away your sins. Remember to be a good person in the next life!"
As he spoke, he threw the torch forward. Suddenly, flames shot up into the sky, and the pungent smell of sulfur turned into the stench of roasting human flesh. The screams in the pit were heartbreaking.
Lungs, and a huge heat wave hit their faces, making the faces of Xu Daofu and others feel like they were about to peel off instantly.
The thousands of soldiers following Xu Daofu first instinctively retreated and then howled loudly. Almost all of the three thousand disciples in the front army were related to the people behind them. When they saw them all fall into the pit, many of them
People still held on to a glimmer of hope of survival, and even saw some of their companions trying to find a way out of the pit. Some people even rushed to the edge of the pit and stretched out their weapons to help them climb up. However, this sudden fire disrupted the situation.
Breaking everyone's rhythm, many people first evacuated, then knelt down, and even threw themselves at the fire pit, crying loudly.
Xu Daofu's eyes were sparkling with tears. The soldiers around him were kneeling down and their eyes were about to bleed: "Third leader, give the order. We are willing to jump over the fire pit and attack to fight against the dog thief Liu Yu!"
"Give me the order, my disciple is willing to take the Five Stone Powder and become an immortal!"
Xu Daofu let out a long sigh and shook his head: "It's impossible. This big pit cuts off our attack on the Chinese army. If we try to take a detour, we will be attacked by the enemy's left and right wings. Zhang Gang, use wooden armor to cover the retreat of the army.
The rear team becomes the front team, the front team becomes the rear team, retreat!"
Many of the soldiers around me were so anxious that they burst into tears: "Three Cult Leaders, we don't want to withdraw!"
Xu Daofu raised the vajra pestle heavily, slammed it on the ground, and shouted: "This is a military order, retreat!"
As he spoke, he picked up the big pestle and ran backwards. His huge body was like a wild bull, knocking three or four sergeants in front of him to the ground. Several strong men were carrying his big flag.
, followed closely behind.
The swordsmen in front let out a desperate roar, turned around and ran towards the rear, while the Tianshi Dao Central Army, which looked like a long dragon, moved backward as a whole. The carts and shields on both sides also slowly retreated, bows and arrows.
The soldiers kept firing arrows towards the two wings to prevent the Jin army from advancing again and again, and gradually withdrew towards their main camp.
Liu Daogui smiled slightly: "Brother, the enemy troops have withdrawn. Should we attack quickly with our troops now, attack from three sides, and completely eliminate this group of demon thieves?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "Xu Daofu is worthy of the famous general. He still endured the extremely unfavorable situation. This big fire pit allows me to stop the enemy's attack without troops. But on the other hand, we want to escape the pursuit."
It's not easy either. The attack from both wings is of little significance under their current prepared defense. If we try to attack again, it's unlikely to completely annihilate Xu Daofu. Now that the Tianshi Dao army has become a miserable army, fighting to the death is not good for us.
.Retract your troops, this is the best choice."
Liu Daogui curled his lips: "Do we really want to withdraw our troops? Why don't we completely eliminate them here? As long as we are not afraid of casualties, this should be possible."
Liu Yu sighed: "If there are only demon thieves, then even if ten thousand people die, they will be wiped out. However, Huan Xuan is about to invade. We cannot send all our elite soldiers here, otherwise we will not be able to resist the Jingzhou Army. Order the catapult
Attack, destroy all the wooden armor behind the demon thieves. Without these war machines, their power will be greatly reduced!"
