Chapter 9: The Flame of Fire Connects the World

Immediately, I don't know who dropped a torch first, and then hundreds of torches were thrown down towards the city at the same time.

Seeing this situation, the Japanese soldiers who were fighting naturally knew what was going on, and immediately thought of retreating! But they were too late, and the city was already in flames.

At this moment, the enemy camp on the opposite side also sounded the horn of retreat, but it was already too late. Those enemy soldiers trapped on the city wall were still fighting and could not go back. Waiting for them would be all the soldiers of the Xuanwu Legion.

The siege was on, and the soldiers who were preparing to come up on the ladder and the enemy soldiers on the city wall were unable to retreat. Because at this moment they fell into the sea of ​​fire and were quickly swallowed up by the sea of ​​fire. In an instant, there were bursts of tragic sounds from the city.

of screams.

Seeing this situation, the enemy soldiers on the city tower immediately became confused, and in an instant they fell into the encirclement and suppression of the soldiers of the Xuanwu Legion!

Several officers in the enemy camp over there were so angry that their faces changed color when they saw this scene. The face of the general named Matsui could no longer be described as black, and even turned green.

Staring hatefully at the fire on the opposite side and his own soldiers who were flashing and howling in the sea of ​​fire, he couldn't help but get angry: "You Xuanwu Legion, you are so cruel!" However, getting angry like this can't solve the problem.

The anger in his heart, and the faces of several people around him were also full of resentment, but they had no place to vent their anger.

The enemy soldiers on the city wall were all quickly eliminated by the Xuanwu Legion, but they did not stop and immediately threw the corpses of the enemy soldiers into the sea of ​​fire, and then they breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, we arrived in time!"

Seeing such a result, Long Aotian said to himself, but there was no trace of a smile of victory on his face. He knew that after today, he might be burdened with thousands of infamy, or he might be punished.

The world has spurned him, but he has no regrets! The battlefield is inherently a cruel place, and the cruelty towards the enemy is a sign of tolerance towards oneself! For the battlefield, a place where you die or I die, Long Aotian doesn't think there is anything wrong with doing this.

The place.

"Hey, Aotian, let's go and sort out the situation together!"

Bird, who was standing next to Long Aotian, sighed helplessly when he saw Long Aotian's appearance. Long Aotian's expression caught his eyes. He naturally knew what Long Aotian was thinking now!

In the end, the Xuanwu Legion won the battle, but their losses were not small. According to the final statistics, they once again lost more than 3,000 soldiers in this battle, including three thousand cavalry commanders and 21

Captain! Including yesterday's losses, the Xuanwu Legion has lost 8,000 soldiers in the past two days, including a battalion commander, 7 thousand cavalry commanders, and 59 captains! The loss of these officers has left the Xuanwu Legion missing many leaders.

Or. But the losses suffered by the enemy soldiers in the past two days are not small. Especially today, the number of soldiers who died in the sea of ​​​​fire alone is at least thousands. Adding the previous losses, they have lost one person in the past two days.

More than 17,000 soldiers.

After nearly two hours of sorting, the battlefield on the city wall was finally cleared. At this moment, the scorching sun was hanging high in the sky. The sea of ​​​​fire in front of the city wall still did not disappear, and the bursts of thick smoke looked brighter under the sunlight.

There was a hint of something strange, and the strong stench of the burning corpse was unbearable to everyone.

"Okay, I guess the fire didn't disappear so early. Let's go and take a rest first. The number of soldiers on duty today will be reduced accordingly. There are so many people here. There is no need to let them suffer here. Just let the rest of the soldiers wait below the city.

That’s it.”

After cleaning up the battlefield, Knowlton looked at the tired soldiers and said to Cinchina, looking at the intensity of the fire, there was no possibility for the enemy to launch an attack during the day.

After arranging the soldiers on duty, Long Aotian and others returned to their tents to rest under the leadership of Xinchina. The two consecutive days of fighting really consumed a lot of their energy. Now they can

It can be said that I am physically and mentally exhausted.

The battlefield burned until the evening before it gradually started to extinguish. The fire burned throughout the day, and the strong odor spread to places several miles away. The black smoke could

It was said that the sky in front of the city wall was covered, and the bodies of tens of thousands of soldiers were reduced to ashes here.

After a good day's rest, Long Aotian finally woke up from his sleep in the evening, rubbed his sleepy eyes and couldn't help but stretch.

After going out to wash up, Long Aotian returned to his room to prepare for practice. His strength must be restored as soon as possible. Only in this way can he fully exert his strength in the next battle.

Sitting on the bed, Long Aotian quickly entered a state of cultivation.

"Report!"

Just when Long Aotian had just finished practicing and felt that the inner energy in his body had recovered, before he had time to fully feel himself, he heard a cry from outside the door.

"What's the matter?"

Walking out of the door, Long Aotian saw a soldier standing here waiting for him.

"General Xinchina will teach you to go over and hold a meeting!" Seeing Long Aotian, the soldier's face clearly showed an expression of awe.

Seeing this expression, Long Aotian smiled bitterly. Perhaps he had impressed them too deeply in the past two days.

"Go back and say something and I'll be here right away!" Long Aotian then turned back and walked back into the house, took out a set of armor, put it on and rushed towards Xinchina.

"Aotian, you're here." Xin Qina said with a smile when he saw Long Aotian coming in.

As soon as he walked into Xinchina's commander's camp, Long Aotian saw that all the officers of the forward battalion were already here. However, Long Aotian could clearly see the strange looks in everyone's eyes when they looked at him.

Perhaps it was because he had experienced so many looks like this in the past two days that he didn't take it seriously. He kept his normal mind and took the position that should have been vacated for him.

"Okay, now that Aotian is here, let's start the meeting!" Xinchina said to everyone after seeing Long Aotian take his seat.

"After these two days of fighting, we can say that we have initially stopped the enemy's advance. Especially in yesterday's battle, I think the enemy must have suffered a big blow. After deciding, we plan to launch a battle tomorrow night.

It is estimated that those enemies will not be able to attack us today, so we have enough time to prepare." Xinchina couldn't help but smile bitterly when he thought of the scene where the city wall had not been extinguished and occasionally sent out traces of flames. After a day

The ground below was burned into an open space. There were only a few unburned enemy armors scattered on the ground. Thinking of the scorching heat on the city wall, he knew that it would be impossible for the enemy to attack today even if they wanted to.

Yes, judging from the current temperature, it will have to wait until tomorrow at least for the temperature to dissipate!

After a pause, Xinchina continued: "After research, we have decided to launch a counterattack tomorrow night. It will be our first head-on confrontation with the enemy. For this reason, we have made a specific plan, that is, tomorrow night

In the evening, there will be our forward battalion, heavy cavalry, and light cavalry charging on the front. The archers of the infantry battalion behind will support us in the battle in front. The infantry will also send certain personnel to help us charge. After two days of fighting, we

The soldiers of the forward battalion also lost two thousand people. We plan to send two thousand soldiers from the trail behind the mountain to go around the enemy's rear and flank the enemy from behind to disrupt their battle plan and formation! Of course, these are secondary.

, the main task of these two Qianqi is to find the enemy's granary and destroy it! In this way, if there is not enough food, the enemy will disrupt their camp, and then our battle will be much easier."

Cinchner stated the main content of the plan.

After hearing the news, everyone couldn't help but look at each other. This task is not easy to carry out. Let's not talk about the matter of Shao Granary. If the two Qianqi men are noticed behind the enemy, they will be attacked by the enemy with devastating force.

The most important thing is that even if they are not noticed when they fight, they will be surrounded. After all, even if the enemy has suffered heavy losses in the past two days, they still have an army of at least hundreds of thousands. It is impossible in the previous battle.

Holding back all their troops, not to mention burning down their granaries? Wouldn't that be courting death?

"I know this task is difficult and arduous, but we have to do it. We only need to send a few soldiers to burn down the granary. After all, there must be heavy enemy troops there, so the smaller the target, the safer it will be.

, but these people must be elites! The rest of the soldiers just attract their attention behind the enemy's rear. You don't have to attack them, but you must attract their troops. If they turn around and attack you, you will

Dodge, if you really can't, go into the mountains and forests. They probably won't be able to go in there. It won't be good for them if their army goes in. So in a word, you can eat a little of their troops, but if you can't eat, run away.

Let them chase so that the battle ahead can be easier!"

Xinchina, who knew that this task was difficult, said helplessly, after all, it is so simple to say but difficult to do.

Everyone was still silent.

"Okay, the last thing I want to say is that if we complete the mission tomorrow, the team behind us will retreat first when they see the mission is completed, and the team in front of us will also retreat after seeing the flames. The main mission this time is to burn down the opponent's

Granary, can anyone give us their opinion now? Is there any Qianqi who volunteered to accept this task?"

Seeing everyone's silence, Xin Qina asked, and at the same time he looked towards Long Aotian!

(Tomorrow is the National Day, so I can only bring you an update tomorrow night. I have to watch the military parade in the morning and have to go to the city in the afternoon. I hope you can understand! Haha???? The military parade will be wonderful. I am looking forward to it! Let us witness the victory of the motherland together.

60th anniversary!)
