The guards moved very quickly, and almost in the blink of an eye, the remaining serial warships quickly ignited fires. These warships were made of wood, and the wind picked up at this time, so they burned quickly.
"Fire, it's on fire."
Faced with this situation, many soldiers screamed in panic, and then many people jumped into the river.
In the minds of these soldiers, they thought that Yue Feng started the fire again.
Because when the first serial warship burned, many soldiers tried to use river water to extinguish the fire, but it didn't help. So at this time, everyone believed that the fires ignited by these ships could not be extinguished.
Under such circumstances, the soldiers naturally decisively abandoned the ship and jumped into the water.
this....
Seeing that the remaining serial warships were on fire again, Ji Beiye's face instantly turned pale, and his mind was buzzing and went blank.
how so?
Hundreds of thousands of troops collapsed in this fire...
"General!"
Just when Ji Beiye was in a trance, a general swam over quickly and shouted: "The fire is coming, let's go!"
As he said that, the general jumped into the boat, waved the paddle and rowed quickly towards the north bank of the river. At the same time, he did not forget to shout to the diving soldiers: "Swim to the north bank, hurry up..."
After hearing this, the soldiers who jumped into the river tried their best to swim. However, most of the soldiers were not familiar with the water properties and sank before they could swim very far.
"Help...gududu...help me..."
"I...I can't swim..."
"Help, help..."
For a moment, there was a howl in the water on both sides of the burning warship.
Ji Beiye's mind was confused all the time. When he realized that he had been led to the north bank by his subordinates, he gradually recovered. At that time, he turned his head and saw that in addition to the burned wreckage of the big ship, there were many drowned people on the river.
Soldiers, go with the flow...
However, less than 50,000 people successfully swam to the north shore.
"puff!"
The nearly 500,000-strong army had lost more than 400,000 before they had even crossed the south bank of the Yangtze River. It was a heavy loss. For a moment, Ji Beiye was so furious that he spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot.
After spurting out blood, Ji Beiye's eyes turned black and he almost fainted.
"General!"
Several generals around him exclaimed and helped Ji Beiye.
Wow!
Seeing this, the soldiers guarding the city on the south bank of the city gate cheered.
It’s over.....
At this moment, the city lord who was in the woods not far away had his last hope in his heart completely burned away by the fire. He was slumped on the ground, his head buzzing.
Ji Beiye's army of hundreds of thousands was defeated by Yue Feng like this...
If you don't see it with your own eyes, who would dare to believe it?
"grown ups!"
Just when the city lord was in despair, several personal guards who had been sent away returned and reported the situation: "We have already laid an ambush outside the south gate. Let's..."
Before they could finish speaking, the city lord cursed angrily: "Ambush is nothing, can't you see the situation on the river?"
Hearing the scolding from the city lord, several of the guards were stunned. The next second, they turned their heads and saw the situation on the river. Their eyes widened and they were completely dumbfounded.
They saw that Ji Beiye's series of warships were all burned to ashes by the fire, and there were floating corpses everywhere on the water... It was a miserable scene.
This...how could this happen?
"What are you still waiting for? Go get ready, we have to leave quickly." At this time, the city lord calmed down and quickly urged: "Otherwise it will be too late."
The secret alliance between himself and Ji Beiye will be exposed sooner or later, so he must run away as soon as possible.
"Yes, sir!"
Upon hearing the order, several personal guards nodded quickly and escorted the city lord away.
At this moment, Yue Feng is here.
Hearing the cheers, Yue Feng also showed a smile, turned around and flew back upstairs.
"Ha ha!"
As soon as he landed, King Shaoyang hurried up to greet him with admiration on his face: "Sir, setting fire to the chain boat is truly amazing. I believe that today's battle will be remembered in the annals of history, haha..."
At the same time, Ying Kuang was also very excited and raised his hands to Yue Feng: "Thank you sir for saving the people of this city."
