Lin Mengya was familiar with this routine, after all, her father had an old subordinate who looked quite kind.
Every time he came to see her, the uncle would bring her a box of clothes and jewelry.
But who would have thought that he would actually be a powerful general?
According to what my father's colleagues said privately, this uncle was known as a lotus flower with a bright tongue when he called the formation. It was said that he could kill people with his words, and even once angered an enemy general to death.
Of course this is just one of his achievements.
What's even more amazing is that every time she goes into battle to kill the enemy, her father will arrange for people to protect her uncle.
It's not that this uncle's force is not worth it, the main reason is that his mouth is so hateful that every time the enemies will rush towards him like they are crazy.
Ahem, your ability to attract monsters is top-notch.
Alas, I don’t know what happened to his good brothers before he left.
In fact, she also asked, but every time her father just said that he had made some arrangements before he left, and he didn't know the specific details of how he wanted to come.
She pulled back her consciousness that had drifted away in time.
Let’s deal with the current situation first.
Just as they had guessed, the lessons learned by the previous twenty or so people were not enough to make them give up their plan to attack the rear of Shenji Camp.
They also learned better this time.
Most of the troops were sent to the front to contain the main fighting force, while the remaining fifty or so people were holding bows and arrows soaked in kerosene, preparing to set up a fire company for them.
The smell of kerosene was very strong. Although it was not very close, Lin Mengya was still aware of the pungent smell at the first moment.
Secretly, this group of people really did not let their preparations fail at all.
In the darkness of the night, streams of fire suddenly shot into the tent.
Their targets are mainly focused on camps that are more likely to burn or at the rear where supplies are stored.
In this way, if a fire breaks out in the back, if it cannot be extinguished in time, the people in front will be confused.
And if the Shenji Battalion allocates manpower to extinguish the fire, the people in front can drive straight in.
In short, this blow can be regarded as catching these people in the Shenji Camp off guard.
However, the world obviously did not develop according to their expected trajectory.
Although the feather arrows stained with kerosene fell one after another, they only ignited some withered grass around them.
In the past, a tent could be completely set ablaze by just touching the fire, but for some reason the fire did not burn!
As soon as the flaming rocket landed, it was stamped out by people, or simply covered with sand.
And the withered grass that was ignited only burned out after a period of time, so there was no need to care about it at all. There was no sign of continuing to burn.
The sneak attack guys were stunned!
"What, what's going on?!"
Because they were still some distance away, they didn't see the situation here.
All I know is that the rockets they fired did not cause any commotion in the camp, and even after waiting for a long time, they did not see a few plumes of smoke.
How is this possible!
Could it be that they didn't dip their arrows in enough kerosene?
A few people thought this way, so they worked harder.
They didn't believe it and couldn't help but burn down all the tents!
As a result, because too much kerosene was dipped in it, some of it dripped onto my body or the surrounding ground.
In addition, they were a little uneasy, so they accidentally played with fire and burned themselves!
They were all wearing flammable cotton and linen clothes, and there was a lot of fire oil around them, so the fire started instantly with the wind, and all those people were caught in it.
"Ah - so hot, so hot!"
"Help me, I don't want to be burned to death!"
A series of screams came from the fire.
The surrounding companions originally wanted to rescue him, but in a moment of excitement, the people inside actually kicked the kerosene and spilled it.
The next moment, flames shot up into the sky, completely engulfing several figures inside.
People outside can only stay away to avoid the fire endangering themselves.
In the end, no matter how the people inside wailed, their final fate was to be trapped in a sea of fire with no possibility of escaping.
The other companions who witnessed this scene felt their hearts tighten.
For some reason, they had some ominous premonitions in their hearts, as if this mistake was just the beginning.
The remaining people couldn't help but look at the leader.
I saw that the man who was so high-spirited before had a completely different face now, with his brows furrowed as he stared at the gradually weakening fire.
"or"
"We cannot fail!" the leading man suddenly spoke, his eyes fixed on the person who spoke.
"If we withdraw now, their death will be in vain."
The main reason is that even if he goes back now, he has no way to explain to the people above him.
On the contrary, you may be severely punished for failing the task.
Rather than losing everything like this, it is better to fight to the death.
he
They kept reassuring themselves in their hearts that this was just an accident, and it was just that they were not careful and that was how they got burned.
As long as they are more careful with their next moves, they can get back in the game.
He looked towards the camp not far away.
I don’t know what method the other party used to escape this disaster, but he will not show mercy next time.
The man pursed his lips and tightened his grip on the weapon at his waist.
I don't know if it was because of fear or determination.
The burnt smell also spread to the camp along the wind.
Lin Mengya glanced in the direction not far away. It seemed that someone had suffered the consequences.
This result surprised her a little.
However, if she had not taken preventive measures in advance, they would be the unlucky ones now.
Lin Mengya immediately asked people to check the status of various parts of the camp.
When she took over the logistics aspect before, she had some communication and exchanges with the more experienced soldiers in the Shenji Battalion.
They are considered well-informed and can talk for a long time about any topic related to this work.
Someone happened to mention that once when they went out to fight, for some reason a fire broke out behind them. Although they tried their best to put out the fire, they couldn't save much supplies.
Fortunately, the enemies outside were mostly beaten at that time.
Otherwise, if they were attacked from both front and back, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to survive until now.
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Lin Mengya considered the possibility of such a thing.
She also asked if there were any traces of enemies in the rear at that time.
The soldier thought carefully and shook his head and said, "We were in the vanguard at that time, and behind us were the military camps of the Shaoxuan Army."
Lin Mengya couldn't help but think more.
They should obviously be the most trustworthy partners, but when the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion went out to fight for their lives, they did such disgusting little tricks in the rear.
Is endless infighting really that important?
Haven't they ever thought that if they lost the obstruction of the Shenji Battalion, would they be able to escape unscathed when facing the enemy alone?
This group of people is simply insane to the extreme.
So after thinking again and again, she discussed with Long Tianyu and stepped up efforts to develop a fireproof coating.
In fact, the effect of this coating is not very great.
Thick coating on the tent can indeed prevent fire to a certain extent, but if the fire is larger, it will not be able to withstand it.
Then other parties need to cooperate at this time.
For example, zha Before camping, be sure to pull out all the dead grass and trees around the tent, and artificially create a vacuum fire zone.
In this way, once a fire occurs, the loss can be minimized as much as possible, and it can also delay the spread of the fire and buy more time for the fire fighters.
In fact, their set of measures are just being explored.
In addition, the situation this time is not very urgent, so I have time to do these things.
Unexpectedly, it actually came in handy and had unexpected effects.
Long Tianyu personally followed everyone to investigate the situation in the camp, and returned to Lin Mengya with a bit of joy on his face.
"What's the damage?" she asked in a low voice.
Unexpectedly, before the other party could speak, he stretched out his big hand and rubbed her head fiercely, "My wife is really amazing!"
Lin Mengya was so frightened that she quickly covered his mouth and looked around with a stern look.
Okay, okay, everyone is busy checking the situation in front, and no one cares about the situation on their side.
In fact, Lin Mengya was not completely unaware of how everyone spread the word about them in the military camp.
Fortunately, she also wanted to keep a distance from everyone, so even if there were such rumors, she did not take the initiative to clarify them.
Naturally, some people deliberately stayed away from her, which saved her heart.
But the matter probably could only end here. If the rumor was any more outrageous, then she felt that there was really no need for her to meet anyone.
Long Tianyu was obediently covered by her little hand and was not angry.
A pair of deep eyes still looked at her with a bit of a smile, and his heart was full of appreciation for his richness.
Oops, I don’t know how the melon seeds on his wife’s head grew?
How come there are always some novel ideas that make him think?
"You'd better stop talking nonsense to me, do you hear me?!"
Lin Mengya let go of her hand, but still lowered her voice and "commanded".
There was nothing wrong with Long Tianyu, so he lowered his eyebrows and said "hmm".
"okay, I get it."
Only then did the two of them talk about the damage in the camp.
In fact, from Long Tianyu's careless attitude, Lin Mengya could roughly guess that their losses this time should be nothing to worry about.
But until she learned from Yu that they only lost a few pieces of clothing this time, she couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
"Why is it so little?" She didn't really think it was less.
But it was much, much less than she had expected.
After all, fire-retardant coatings are limited, so they cannot cover everything.
