With a whoosh, a burning rocket penetrated the tent and landed in the tent.
Tong Jianye was woken up by the screams and was about to slap the bitch to make her calm down.
Suddenly, he was surprised to see that the carpet was on fire.
In this era, the tents of the chief officials were covered with a layer of felt and a carpet on the ground. People sat on the stalls to eat and sleep. These felts and carpets will have a lot of grease after long-term use. Because they are not cleaned all year round, there will be a lot of grease. Odor, or various food residues, etc.
There were no cleaning agents in this era, so you could only sweep them, so felts and carpets were very flammable.
Tong Jianye got excited, sat up, and quickly looked for clothes, armor, and weapons.
This damn thing was sneak attacked. At this time, he didn't understand that he was a fool. He was deceived by Huang Tengyuan, and that guy had no intention of going to Shenyang with him.
When Tong Jianye rushed out of the yurt, there was already a sea of fire outside.
There were shouts of killing from all directions, and countless rebel soldiers, with white cloth belts tied around their necks, howled and rushed towards them from all directions.
There were fires everywhere, fighting soldiers everywhere, roars, screams, and the shouts of officers. The entire camp was in complete chaos.
This fortress was originally hastily arranged, with sparse fences and sentries who neglected their duties. It had no defense at all. It was rushed in directly.
It was also since they rebelled during this period that they had a smooth journey, fully discovering the rottenness of the Ming Dynasty's officers and soldiers, and there was no need to bother building forts. Because it was useless to build them, and no one came to steal the camps.
While Tong Jianye was in a daze, another round of rockets came in. One rocket passed by his cheek and killed a soldier, which shocked him.
"Baili, where the hell are you?" he roared angrily, kicked down the dazed soldier at the door, and cursed: "Hurry up and prepare your horse for me."
The wind outside the pass was strong, and at this time, the entire camp was on fire. There were officers and soldiers from both sides fighting with hand-to-hand swords everywhere. Many of Tong Jianye's soldiers were naked. Because the enemy came so suddenly, there was no time to put on clothes and armor. .
Frightened war horses ran around in the camp. The whole camp was in chaos. The soldiers could not find the generals, and the generals could not find the soldiers. The command system was completely chaotic. At the same time, it was also because during this period of rebellion, small groups and small groups were everywhere. After looting, the original organization and discipline of the army were seriously weakened.
Under the service of his own soldiers, Tong Jianye put on his mountain armor and mounted his war horse. More than thirty personal guards also mounted their horses. At this time, Baili hurriedly came with more than a hundred people.
"Sir, this cannot be done for nothing. Huang Dengyuan, a treacherous villain, has united more than a dozen groups to eat us. There are four to five thousand of them. Leave quickly, it will be too late."
Tong Jianye took a look at the more than 300 carriages of the Chinese army. They were filled with the property he had robbed. He was told to give up his escape. His heart felt like it was being cut.
"Sir, I can't stand it any longer. Let's leave quickly. The front is about to collapse." Tong An also withdrew more than a hundred people. These people were all cavalry. Apparently the infantry had been entangled.
Tong Jianye cried so hard that there were only more than 300 cavalry left. If he just left and left everything behind, it would be good if he went back without being punished, let alone meritorious service.
Tong An pulled the reins of his horse and said loudly: "You can keep the green hills without fear of running out of firewood. Don't be greedy for property, sir. Leave quickly." Then she pulled the reins of his horse and left.
At this time, enemies from all sides had already rushed nearby. More than 300 cavalrymen immediately turned around and rushed towards the south. More than 50 of these cavalrymen were Jiannu. They were very brave and skilled with bows and horses. They rushed at the front and quickly rushed forward.
After scattering the enemy, they rushed out from the camp gate in front.
Tong Jianye looked back again, saw more than three hundred carts of goods, and sighed. Unexpectedly, he was full of confidence yesterday, but today he was completely defeated.
After rushing out of the camp, there is a valley to the southeast. After passing here, you will reach Duoyan's hometown grassland. Once you reach the grassland, it will be safe.
Huang Tengyuan stood behind a big rock, squinting and watching a group of cavalry with torches running in the distance. He watched them run into the valley. With a wave of his hand, the soldiers immediately pulled the rope and used wooden planks and crowbars.
The pile of stuck stones immediately collapsed as the supports were pulled out.
Tong Jianye was riding his horse when he suddenly saw a bang in front of him, a burst of dust flying, and a large piece of stone collapsed, blocking the road ahead.
He was shocked and turned around, shouting: "Go back, hurry up, get out of here."
These cavalrymen suddenly panicked and hurriedly changed from the rear to the front. They tried to retreat backwards from the valley and leave here. In military books, this kind of place is a desperate place. Once they are ambushed, the whole army will be annihilated.
Immediately afterwards, a large amount of wood collapsed. It was obvious that preparations had been made here. A large number of logs were cut in advance and piled on the valleys on both sides. They were supported by crowbars. Once the crowbars were pulled out, these logs were piled up.
It collapsed immediately.
The cavalry in front were immediately knocked upside down. These pieces of wood were more than ten centimeters thick and weighed several hundred kilograms. When they fell from the mountain, the men and horses were immediately smashed into meat patties. Moreover, these pieces of wood fell in all directions, immediately knocking them back.
The road is blocked.
Huang Tengyuan said: "Light the bush ball and push it down."
Spheres with a diameter of more than one meter tied with dry grass and shrubs on the hillside were doused with kerosene, then ignited. Blow by the mountain wind, they quickly burned into huge fireballs. They were stabbed with long sticks by the soldiers.
Go down.
Tong Jianye watched in horror as fireballs rolled down the mountains on both sides. The cavalrymen suddenly howled and hurriedly avoided these fireballs.
Due to the drought in recent years, the vegetation has been extremely dry. A spark is very dangerous. These burning fireballs ignited the grass and shrubs along the way, creating a line of fire.
The fire soon spread to the bottom of the valley, and the shrubs and grass at the bottom of the valley were all burned.
The cavalrymen became ants on a hot pot, running away from the flames.
Baili was hit by a fireball, causing him and his horse to fall to the ground. As soon as he got up, his clothes were set on fire. The surrounding vegetation also quickly burned into a fireball.
Tong Jianye roared towards the mountain: "Who ambushed me, please stand up if you have the ability."
Huang Tengyuan appeared silently behind a stone and looked at him coldly.
"Huang Tengyuan, you are a treacherous villain who has no faith in your words. I will not let you go even if you are a ghost." Tong Jianye was almost furious and cursed Huang Tengyuan in the distance.
"There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. At this time, do you still want to lie to me? We are all thousand-year-old foxes, what the hell are you playing with me for?" Huang Tengyuan said coldly.
Tong Jianye was at a loss for words. So he softly requested: "Brother Huang, listen to my brother, he will never harm you. How about you let him go? When we get to Shenyang, how about I ask the Great Khan to make you the flag leader."
"Fuck you, how can I, an upright Chinese ethnic group, surrender to the Yi and Di people? Fire arrows!" Huang Tengyuan roared.
Now, the entire valley was illuminated by firelight, while the mountains were completely dark.
In the blink of an eye, Huang Tengyuan had the advantage. The archers immediately bent their bows and nocked arrows, shooting towards the clear targets at the bottom of the valley.
