The legend of the Juyang City Camp became history. The military camps surrounding the north, west and south sides of the Juyang City were devoured by raging fire, and a large amount of military supplies that were too late to be transported were also destroyed in the sea of flames.?? quge?? w?w?w

The first thing Gu Jun said when he returned to the commander's platform was, "The enemy wants to escape."
"If Zhan Weizhen tries his best, we will suffer a lot of losses, so we have to guard against him," Ming Tang said.
"It's not that easy to escape. The enemy troops can only evacuate from the river. It will take at least half the night to board the ship. We attacked the city overnight and we still had to cut off a piece of their flesh." Liang Gong said and pulled out again.
An order flag, "Order the 205th Division to clear the fire scene and not allow the enemy to have a chance to breathe."
The trebuchet still has its uses. It can put out larger fires by loading bags of soil and shooting them. If the movement speed is not too slow, the 2o5 division can clear the fire scene much faster.
"Do you need our help?" Shikang asked.
"No for now, don't waste your magic power on this. The enemy still has a certain amount of strength." Gu Jun stopped him.
"Shikang, gather all the magicians together and I'll tell them something."
The Ming and Tang Dynasties took Shikang away to find the magician, probably to find a way to deal with Zhan Wei.
"Will this fire burn for at least half a day?" Ding Kui asked Liang Gong.
"It's almost the same. If the 205 Division goes to clean up, they can probably extinguish the fire in the camp in the west of Juyang City before dusk. It seems that the northern and southern camps will burn until dark." Liang Gong could only estimate, after all, he didn't know how much combustion-supporting materials were there.
In the military camp.
"If the enemy wants to board the ship and escape, it should be impossible to take the residents of Juyang City with them. What if the enemy forces drive all the people out of the city?"
Ding Kui still remembered that the Meng army did not harm the civilians of this city that had resisted for many days. In the eyes of the Meng army who had just invaded Nanzhao Prefecture, it was like buying horse bones for a thousand dollars.
"Sigh." Liang Gong took a deep breath, "Yes, it is very likely that the enemy will drive the people out of the city. Order the 2o3 and 2o4 divisions to go immediately to clear the fire scene and open up a road connecting Juyang City as soon as possible.
aisle."
"Ah, I was just guessing." Liang Gong's reaction shocked Ding Kui.
Liang Gong took a deep look at Ding Kui, trying to tell whether he was telling the truth from his face, "If I were the commander of the enemy army and didn't want to kill the people, I would definitely drive them out of the city.
To the east of Juyang City is the Tongyuan River. It is impossible for the people to jump into the river. There are fires burning on the other three sides, which means there is no way out. Once our army clears the way through the fire, the people will definitely flock to it.
70,000 to 80,000 men, women, old and young have come out, and it will take a certain amount of time for our army to evacuate them. In order to avoid spies being mixed among them, we need to allocate a certain amount of troops to accommodate them. This is a good trick to delay time, and Wujiang cannot have thought of it."
"I'll go take a look." Gu Jun couldn't stay still and quickly flew into the air.
If this guess comes true, it will affect his plan to attack Giant Sheep City.
Not long after, Gu Jun flew back with a livid face.
"They started driving people out of the city."
"I'm going to help put out the fire, Ding Yu, let's go." Ding Kui jumped off the handsome platform.
"You really want me to take action?" Ao Yu followed closely behind Ding Kui.
"Don't use your ultimate move, just the little green dragon." Ding Kui ran with all his strength, his speed could catch up with an ordinary war horse.
Jiang Cao ran on the front line of putting out the fire, opening a row of wooden fences here, shooting out gunfire to scatter a carriage there, and the squadron he brought with him continued to advance in the fire scene.
Suddenly, Jiang Cao's neck tightened and he was pulled back sharply. At the same time, a ball of fire exploded in front of him, and countless debris and debris flew in all directions.
Ding ding ding ding, a dark long sword flicked away the incoming debris for Jiang Cao, and a familiar voice sounded in his ears, "I don't want to kill you, look at the environment clearly, there is a pile of fire oil cans in front of you."
"Little cousin!" Jiang Cao shouted in surprise.
"Okay, the whole army has heard it, don't shout so loud next time." Three black lines stood up on Ding Kui's forehead.
Bang, Ding Kui's sword light shot out a big crater on the ground, and the stirred up soil covered part of the burning kerosene.
Ao Yu became even more violent, punching a large crater around the oil tank pile, almost burying the area where the oil had splashed.
"It was Cao Cao who was reckless. He was blinded by the fire and did not see the situation clearly." Only now did Jiang Cao realize that he was afraid that even if he had the strength of a shield-breaking knight, he would still be burned.
"Don't underestimate fire. It is characterized by powerful explosive power and is the most destructive element in the world."
"Everyone, follow me to put out the fire. Opposite the fire scene are the innocent people of Juyang City. They were driven out of the city by the enemy troops." Ding Kui shouted loudly.
The surrounding soldiers heard this and worked harder to put out the fire.
With the addition of Ding Kui and Ao Yu, the fire extinguishing speed in the direction where Jiang Cao's squadron was located accelerated a lot, and it rushed into the Meng Army camp like an arrow.
Not long after noon, Ding Kui finally penetrated the west camp of the Meng army.
The distance from the military camp to the edge of the city is nearly three hundred meters, which is the distance that the trebuchet on the city can just reach.
The huge crowd of people wandered coweringly between the military camp and the city. The blazing military camp deterred them, but behind them there were Meng troops armed to the teeth to drive them away.
Confused, helpless, hesitant, fearful, and desperate, these forgotten and abandoned Shaodian people were filled with negative emotions. Almost all of them regretted not evacuating with Qi Nan.
Boom, the door of the military camp that was about to be burned to charcoal exploded, and a dark red figure rushed out.
A tall and strong young man is carrying a long black sword, and is covered with solid fighting spirit armor. His thick lips are slightly open, and his piercing red phoenix eyes make people dare not look at him.
"I am Ding Kui of the 21st Regiment of the Shaodian Army! Don't panic, everyone, come here quickly! I'm here to rescue you." Ding Kui gathered his fighting spirit and shouted loudly.
Ding Kui suddenly appeared in front of the people of Juyang City like a god, bringing everyone hope of survival.
At that moment, all the people seemed to be grabbing a handful of life-saving straws before drowning. The instincts of their bodies overcame the joy in their hearts, and power burst out from nowhere, prompting them to rush behind Ding Kui.
"Jiang Cao's squadron will guard both sides of the passage and organize the people to evacuate here in an orderly manner." Ding Kui spread his mental energy and swept towards the city.
Thousands of Meng troops held bows and arrows and aimed at the panicked people below the city, but only a few bows were fully drawn, and the target they aimed at was Ding Kui.
Countless people ran past Ding Kui, but he remained motionless for fear of blocking the flow of excited people. Under the impact of tens of thousands of people, the fearless knight had to kneel down. He was also afraid that his actions would attract an attack from the Meng army.
It's not a big deal to shoot him, but I'm afraid that the accuracy is not good enough and accidentally injure the people nearby.
Jiang Cao's squadron, which had just rushed out, was knocked back by the crowd. Fortunately, troops kept rushing out of the fire scene. Coupled with the fear of the fire, they could barely maintain the order of the people and let them walk into the still very narrow passage.
Ao Yu flew over Ding Kui's head in time. Some of the Meng soldiers who were eager to try put off the idea of taking action. It also gave the Shaodian people who were eager to escape a little more confidence and alleviated the impatience of not squeezing into the passage.
Fortunately, there were not many combustibles near the gate of the military camp, and the passage in the fire scene was quickly widened. More and more Shaodian soldiers stabilized the mood of the people, and the orderly team accelerated the evacuation.
"The city gate is open, should I rush in?" Ao Yu asked.
"No, you will definitely suffer a loss if you go in alone. There are so many people rushing out and we can't squeeze through. As soon as we get close, the archers at the top of the city will release arrows. They are sure that we will throw away the rat, and they will not ignore the lives of the people."
." Ding Kui shook his head.
"Get out of my way!" A man with a sinister face kicked away a woman dragging a child and pushed forward as hard as she could.
Ding Kui's eyes turned cold, and he pointed at the man who kicked him and said, "Throw him into the fire!"
With a flash of blue light, Ao Yu flew behind the man, grabbed his neck and threw him away.
The man's neck could not withstand Ao Yu's strength, and he died in the air. His limp body fell into the fire and could not move.
"Women and children come first! Whoever wants to rush around again will be thrown into the fire!"
Ding Kui's move served as a warning to hundreds of people, and instantly suppressed those who wanted to bully the weak. It made the people clearly realize that the Shaodian soldiers in front of them were also ruthless men who killed without blinking an eye. Anyone who disobeyed might be put in danger.
Gu Jun, Mingtang, and Shikang also flew over. The safety of tens of thousands of people was a major matter, and they needed to deal with it with all their strength.
There were more than 80,000 people in Juyang City, and most of the laborers had already been gathered to carry supplies. Therefore, the Meng army rushed about 70,000 people out of the city in a hurry, and at most 10,000 more were hiding in various corners of the city.
.
Such a group of refugees was more numerous than the soldiers attacking the city. Liang Gong did not dare to arrange the people into his own military camp, so he had to send people to guide the people to sleep in front of the Tuofeng Mountain pass, leaving a road open for the troops to enter and exit, and to facilitate transportation within the pass.
Food came out to help the people.
Most of the Shaodian Army's forces were used for offense and they could not allocate too many troops to defend the city. The attack on the transport team alerted the military. People who have not screened their identities cannot be sent to areas where their identities have been screened. The Tuofeng Mountain Pass cannot
Let the people of Juyang City pass.
It was already dusk after all the people had been evacuated, and the Shaodian Army had opened up an attack position in the west of Juyang City.
There were nearly two hundred magicians forming a large formation in the air, with Ming Tang commanding from the center, and Gu Jun and Ao Yu on guard from a lower position.
Below, craftsmen and soldiers were busy setting up trebuchets, and other troops were taking turns putting out fires and eating. Everyone could see that Shaodian's army was planning to fight in the field.
"Hey, Ming Tang, if you have the guts, cast a forbidden spell to destroy this giant sheep city." Zhan Wei flew up from the city.
"Don't test me. This is the home of the Shaodian people. I won't destroy it unless you force me." Ming Tang saw through Zhan Wei's thoughts.
"Shuang Kuang, as long as you are willing to give up, I will let Meng Jun leave immediately and leave you with the complete Juyang City." Zhan Wei put forward the conditions.
"You have forced tens of thousands of people to become homeless. Don't expect us to let you go!" Ming Tang said bitterly.
