Chapter 338: Burn

The Qi army was very quick and took advantage of the mobility of the cavalry and quickly blocked all intersections around the valley.

People who were rushing to the streets were filled with righteous indignation, and even some people wanted to break through, but they all turned into corpses. However, as the people who came from the news gathered more and more, the conflict between the two sides would break out sooner or later.

"General, ahead is the valley where the Black Armor Army stores grain."

On a high ground outside the valley, Tian Yi was standing tall and wanted to see the situation in the valley far away. Unfortunately, the walls around the valley were too high, and there was no grass or tree inside except the entrance.

"General, we have blocked all intersections now, and the people cannot get through for the time being. Why not wait here? Only the army behind us will arrive. By then, the tricks of the Black Armor Army will not work!"

With his intuition to fight on the battlefield for many years, the seemingly calm valley ahead made Yan Zhen feel a creeping atmosphere, as if it was a dragon's nest.

"You think the Black Armor Army is too simple, why don't they think of this? Look, if we don't go into the valley, they will definitely burn the food with a torch."

Tian Yi sighed. In order to raise the army's food and grass, the granaries of the border counties had already been taken away. Now even the stored grains in the hands of the people have been collected. If you want to continue raising food, you can only go to the county government farther away, but the distance water cannot save the near fire.

The Black Armor Army's move is really high. The upright plot can solve the urgent problem. The food that can solve the urgent problem is there, so it will not work without him. Unless he is willing to abandon everything here and return to the capital, but is this possible?

His dignity, conscience, responsibility, and family glory forced him to come here.

"I'll take a thousand cavalry to explore the way first. You can wait outside first to prevent any accidents. If something happens, don't come to save me, and bring troops back to Beijing immediately!"

Tian Yi’s arrangement is not like a way of exploration, but gives people the feeling of explaining the funeral.

In fact, when he was in the camp, he had already made the worst plan. If possible, he even wanted to enter the valley alone, but this was unrealistic.

"General, you don't like to hear what you say. The general is following you for many years. The general will be wherever you go. Besides, you are the main general, so where is the main general? Or are you commanding outside and the general will take the initiative to take a look."

Yan Zhen said as he grabbed the horse's belly and was about to leave, but at this time, thick smoke suddenly emanated from the valley.

"No, they're burning food!"

Tian Yi didn't care about anything else at this time, so he turned his horse's head and rushed towards the valley. The people behind him immediately followed.

"you!"

Seeing the people following, Tian Yi showed complicated face.

"General, General, the general said that you will go wherever you go!"

Yan Zhen smiled a little on his face. Like Tian Yi, he had no other choice. The general was killed. Even if he led his troops back to the capital, it would be a death sentence, and even a disaster for his family. It would be better to die here in battle, at least he could receive a pension at home!

The space in the valley is not small, and it is no problem to accommodate more than 10,000 cavalrymen in Tian Yi.

"Lord, they are in."

On the cliff on one side of the valley, Liu Feng stood on a bluestone. The mountain wind blew the Buddha, and the red cloak floating behind him was like a ball of beating flames.

He looked down at the Qi army, who was like a moth flying into a flame below. One of the veterans in silver armor was particularly eye-catching. Even if he had never seen Tian Yi, he recognized the veteran at a glance that Tian Yi, a famous general in the Western Qi Dynasty.

"He's still here."

As the commander of the first army, Tian Yi would not have to come in person. Even if the 400,000 army was disintegrated, with his past achievements and background, he would not be executed after returning to the court. However, he has now chosen a dead end for himself.

"Blast the entrance!"

Liu Feng ordered.

"yes!"

The Jinyiwei beside him immediately took out two small flags and stood on another protruding boulder and waved it a few times.

Not long after, with a blast, two huge gaps were blown up on both sides of the entrance of the valley. Then the rocks above rolled down, and the entrance was quickly completely sealed.

The huge explosion echoed in the valley, and many war horses were frightened and lost control. The originally orderly team suddenly became a mess.

Tian Yi tightly pulled the reins with both hands, and finally managed to control the frightened mount under his crotch. He turned around and looked back, but because the distance was too far, he only saw the rolling smoke and dust coming out of the entrance. After a while, someone came up to report that the entrance was blocked by rocks.

"General, what should I do now?"

Yan Zhen looked at Tian Yi and asked.

Tian Yi's eyes were lonely, "Yan Zhen, do you regret coming in with me?"

"General is serious. I, Yan Zhen, have been following the general for many years and have been ready to wrap the body in the horse leather!"

"What a horse-haired body."

Tian Yi murmured, then suddenly raised his head, pulled out the long knife from his waist, pointed it in front of him, "All the soldiers, follow my handsome flag and charge with me!"

"Run!"

The originally chaotic cavalry slowly resumed their formation with these shouts and then began to charge towards the depths of the valley. In fact, most of them didn't know why they charged, but they just instinctively advanced towards the coaching flag in front of them.

"Go on!"

Liu Feng waved his hand and the sides of the valley were ready. The soldiers threw the oil tanks in their hands down. As the oil tanks shattered, the grease inside suddenly floated out.

"shoot!"

After throwing the oil tank, the soldiers on both sides of the valley immediately picked up bows and arrows, lit the arrows, and then shot down.

In addition to the rockets, there are also huge rolling stones and heavy rolling wood.

The fate of Tian Yi and others has been decided since they entered the valley. The back road was blocked, and only death awaited them.

The continuous fires ignited in the valley, and the rolling smoke almost covered the sky.

"let's go!"

Looking at the scene below like a purgatory on earth, Liu Feng slowly closed his eyes, turned around and jumped off the bluestone.

In the tenth year of Jingwu in the Western Qi Dynasty, Tian Yi, the general of the Assistant Kingdom, died in battle. Then, the 400,000 army was short of food and suffered countless casualties. The scattered soldiers were scattered all over the border, causing harm to the villages. The people fled to Jiangzhou to survive.

The danger of Xiamen Pass was also resolved by the collapse of the Qi army. The scattered soldiers everywhere were enough to have a headache for Qi. It was impossible for them to launch a second invasion again in a short period of time. Liu Feng also made a free move to deal with the invasion of Qianguo in the south.

However, before heading to the south, we still need to settle the matter here.
