Shicheng is a place extremely rich in wood. Surrounded by mountains on three sides, Shicheng is surrounded by dense evergreen coniferous trees such as Pinus tabulaeformis, Pinus sylvestris, Korean pine, spruce, fir, arborvitae, juniper, etc. It is full of greenery.
The environment is also beautiful.
Countless clear springs originate from pine roots, gurgling down the mountain, and converge into small streams that fall from the cliff into the stone city.
The sea breeze blows from a distance, causing waves of pine waves. It has to be said that no wonder Jiang Taiyu chose to station in Shicheng instead of Jili Mountain City, a group of castles behind. It is so beautiful here.
Yunchu Zhuma Gaopo said to Wen Wen beside him: "This is the most beautiful city I have ever seen."
She smiled softly and said, "It has been seven hundred years since Goguryeo appeared. It is natural to have some beautiful things."
Yun Chu said: "If you like it, just take one more look, and it will no longer exist."
She smiled softly and said, "We are just taking over the city... Hey, what are you going to do?"
Yun Chu pointed to the beautiful stone city surrounded by forests and said: "This city is extremely strong. Every aspect was taken into consideration when it was built. Even the water source was taken care of perfectly. As long as there is enough food and enough manpower, I think I can guard a lot of things."
Year, even if the enemies outside become walking zombies without fear of life or death, I can still ensure the defense of this city."
Gentle said: "Tell me about the shortcomings!"
Yun Chu said: "Jiang Taiyu should be a person deeply influenced by the style of our Tang Dynasty, and he should be a very elegant person.
Let's take a look. One of the elements of defending a city is to minimize the enemy's ability to use local materials. Take a look at the two giant pine trees on the roadside that two people can't wrap around. Are they very suitable for making a rush car?
What about the car?"
Wen Wen glanced at the two towering giant pine trees and nodded, "They have been growing for at least five hundred years.
However, it’s really suitable for making building cars and rushing cars.”
Yun Chu shook his head and said, "What a waste."
Wen Wen said: "It will not be more important than the lives of the soldiers."
"Since Jiang Taiyu likes these two pine trees, let him keep them. We can't go too far."
"What do you want to do?"
"It is autumn at this time, and while it is rainy and gloomy elsewhere in Liaodong, here the autumn air is crisp and clear. Coupled with the strong sea wind, tall trees stretch all the way from Weishan Mountain to Shicheng.
And trees such as Pinus tabulaeformis, Pinus sylvestris, Korean pine, spruce, fir, and arborvitae are rich in oil. If I don’t burn them, I would really be sorry for myself.”
Hearing this, Wen Rou looked at Shi Cheng carefully again, and her frown slowly relaxed.
"It's okay to burn it. We didn't intend to keep this city."
Yun Chu said: "The night is long and there are many dreams, why don't we start now?"
Wen Wen said: "We must take advantage of the fact that the central and rear troops have not arrived yet, so we must start now. However, we must first cut down some wood to make a vehicle that can withstand crossbows. This way, after the fire breaks out, we can take advantage of the enemy's panic."
attack."
Yun Chu hesitated and said, "Do you think these burned trees will be able to grow back after more than 1,300 years?"
Wen Wen was stunned for a moment. She didn't know what Yun Chu meant by asking, so she patted a five-hundred-year-old pine tree next to her and said, "They can't live for more than a thousand years. Even if they don't die of old age, they will be struck to death by lightning. It's better to give them a handful."
The fire is over, and it will not affect your ability to continue to appreciate the ancient pines after more than 1,300 years."
Yun Chu nodded and said, "Then burn it."
Therefore, when Yun Chu's army arrived in Shicheng, instead of building a military stronghold, they set fire to the mountain.
You must dig an isolation zone before setting fire. You cannot burn yourself down just to burn down the stone city.
After the soldiers cleared an isolation zone one mile in front of the stone city, they did not hesitate to light the thick dry pine needles under the pine forest.
Sea breeze seems to be very suitable for fueling combustion, probably because the wind at low altitudes has high oxygen content. Baidu Search | 7 | 4 | Literature | Learning | Net | See the latest chapter.
The fire that appears after lighting the pine needles is a beautiful bright yellow color with not much smoke. In addition, they are fluffy and fall to the ground in their natural state. After the sea breeze with high oxygen content blows along the gaps to the deep layers of the pine needles, the entire ground becomes
It burned.
Yun Chu did not send anyone to set fire to the back mountain and the two mountains on the left and right. He liked the feeling of the flames licking the ground and gradually pressing towards Shicheng.
Because this threat is really too stressful.
Many years ago, when Yun Chu went to the Taibai Mountain Forest Area for business and ate ginseng dipping sauce and tofu made from insects with the local government officials, he heard them say that if you are not afraid of the sky or the earth, you are just afraid of idiots setting fire in the forest.
.
This sentence left a deep impression on Yun Chu, so when he saw Shi Cheng today, he immediately decided to set fire to it without any hesitation.
As I watched the flames climb up the thick red pine trunk in just a few minutes, a low horn sounded in the stone city.
Yun Chu led his troops to stand outside the isolation zone, ready to fight!
The originally cold autumn day gradually became sultry, and the previously beautiful bright yellow flames turned into orange-red flames. The tall pine trees formed huge candles wrapped in the flames.
In the mountain forest, the roar of tigers and the roar of giant bears could be faintly heard, while the birds that were just about to enter the forest to rest flew up in big puffs and fled into the distance without looking back.
In the evening, the sea breeze became stronger and the fire line moved forward faster and faster. Shicheng finally became panicked. Countless people appeared on the top of the city and then immediately retreated, while Yun Chubu remained standing.
One mile away, he stared at the fortified city in front of him with eager eyes.
At this time, the fires on both sides of the Weishan Mountain were hopeless, because just above the huge fire field formed by the pine trees, flying fire appeared. They ignited the pine trees a hundred steps away at a leaping speed. Waiting for the flames here
After burning into pieces again, the flying fire will appear again, once again moving forward in a leaping style.
The monstrous fire obscured the setting sun, and the violent burning of the flames changed the direction of the air flow, swaying left and right, leaving patches of blurred sky.
Gao Kan, who was preparing to set up camp dozens of miles away, suddenly received a report that large tracts of black smoke were rising from the direction of Shicheng.
It should be the former military office sixty miles away from the Chinese army.
The three scouts immediately rode forward, but Gao Kan felt uneasy and sent Yunchu's army alone as the front army. This was selfish in his heart. The front army of 100,000 troops should at least be an army of 10,000 people.
good.
Soon, the scouts came back. It was not that they had already reached Shicheng, but they met the scouts sent from Shicheng.
Hearing that Yun Chu's troops had begun to attack the city, Gao Kan punched the table with hatred. He never thought that Yun Chu would be so reckless in order to gain a breath.
Guo Daifeng further said: "Yunchu's troops are not strong enough to take down Shicheng. Why don't we humble ourselves and lead the army there immediately?"
Gao Kan shook his head and said, "The messenger from Yunchu's army only said that Yunchu had begun to attack the city, but he said he didn't know how to attack the city. He also said that the army had just arrived at Shicheng, and Yunchu ordered him to come and report.
Now, it is already dark, and it is really dangerous for the army to walk at night, so we can only camp on the spot and wait for dawn tomorrow to move forward immediately."
Guo Daifeng and the generals looked at each other, sighed in unison and went back to camp. The behavior of running against Yun Chu a few days ago now seemed to be a mistake, and they ruined an elite force of nearly 4,000 people in vain.
The sky was darkening, but the stone city was illuminated brightly by the fires on both sides. The big trees in the city kept falling down. Even Yun Chu outside the city could see clearly that they were clearing the flammable materials in the city, especially
These are the big trees that decorate the scenery of Stone City.
When the burning line of the mountain fire was level with the city head, Yunchu finally gave the order to attack.
The army slowly approached the city under the cover of the huge wooden sign they had just made. First, they fired sharp heavy crossbows, which bombarded the wooden sign for free. Although many crossbows shot through the wooden sign made of thigh-thick logs,
Card, unable to advance further.
The slave soldiers pushing the wooden cart became more confident. With a shout, they pushed the wooden cart faster.
Before entering the area covered by arrows, Yunchu ordered the wooden cart to stop. The captains threw ranging rockets towards the city. Seeing the three rockets draw a beautiful arc in the air, they landed at the base of the city wall. Yunchu
Then he ordered the wooden cart to move forward twenty steps again.
The cart had only advanced twenty steps when arrows rained down from the top of the city. Although there were many arrows, they were not more than Yunchu expected.
In order to consume the enemy's arrows, Yunchu once again gave the order to advance the cart twenty steps. Then, the people behind the cart crowded under the cart, holding up their shields to resist the rain of arrows.
After the Goguryeo defenders fired three waves of feather arrows, Yun Chu ordered the archers to fire back with rockets.
Meteors all over the sky suddenly appeared and fell from the dark sky, falling into the stone city where they were trying their best to put out the fire.
When Goguryeo's arrows rained again, the shield bearer once again used shields to form a roof above everyone's heads.
It's just that this roof is not as good as a brand car. It cannot withstand the attack of a crossbow gun. Some people will always be taken away by the crossbow gun.
However, at this moment, the number of crossbow guns on the top of the city has been reduced a lot, and most of the crossbow guns have fallen on the carts.
This is a good phenomenon, indicating that the commander of Shicheng is not very knowledgeable about military matters.
The fires burning in the two mountains were scorching the stone city. Even Yunchu, who had the sea breeze blowing behind him, felt sweltering. At this time, the stone city had long been filled with thick smoke. They still had such a determined resistance. This shows that the city
The guard at the head was really very resistant to Datang.
There were no signs of surrender.
Yun Chu was waiting for the flames to advance further forward, so that the thick smoke from behind would completely cover the city.
At that time, it was time for the army to officially attack.
As the smoke gradually became thicker, Yun Chu, Zhong Kui, Yang Jing, the Wang brothers, Zhang Donghai and Wang Defa covered their mouths and noses with thick wet cloths, and followed closely behind the truck as the smoke billowed.
, heading towards the head of Shicheng.
Under the violent cover of Yunchu's twelve sliding crossbows, which were free of charge, ladders were set up on the city wall. Yunchu held a shield in one hand and held the ladder in one hand, holding a horizontal knife in his mouth, and was the first to climb up.
Got the ladder.
