The fire developed quickly and burned directly into Xiang Lang's military camp.
Xiang Lang's military camp prepared a lot of fire starters and igniting materials, and they burned in the blink of an eye, turning the entire camp into a sea of fire.
"What's wrong?
Where did the fire come from?
ah?
Who will tell me?"
Xiang Lang heard the screams and ran out of the tent. Seeing the sea of fire all around, he was stunned. Didn't he say that he was setting Yingjian Mountain on fire?
Now Mount Yingjian is burned down, but he is the one who suffers. This script is wrong.
"Sir, this fire came down from the mountain. Now more than half of the camp has been engulfed in flames. This fire cannot be extinguished. Run with me quickly."
Xiang Lang's personal guards surrounded him directly, their eyes full of fear.
"Don't panic, don't panic, listen to me, immediately gather the troops and follow me to retreat into Yingjian Mountain."
Hearing the fire rolling down the mountain, Xiang Lang immediately understood that this was arranged by someone, and the other party must be Dong Zhao. Although he didn't know where he had leaked the information, there was no one else for miles around.
"Sir, are you confused? Yingjian Mountain is a sea of fire. If it is rushing over there now, isn't it like a moth rushing into the flame and seeking death?"
The personal guard was also stunned when he heard Xiang Lang's words. Now there is a fire in Yingjian Mountain. If you rush there, wouldn't you be courting death?
"Listen to me, this fire is so strange. Dong Zhao's people must have discovered our traces, and then set fire to Yingjian Mountain.
Since we found no trace of the enemy in the direction of Yingjian Mountain, they must have come from behind us. Now they must have sent people to lay an ambush behind, waiting for us to pass.
So if we want, we have to go in the opposite direction and rush towards Yingjian Mountain. Only in this way can we escape."
Xiang Lang didn't have time to say that much now, so he could only tell the problem at this moment. Otherwise, he was really afraid that these personal guards would think that he had lost his ambition and escort him to the east, and he would really be finished by then. Already.
"But the fire came from that way. We are walking on the fire. In the end, it is very likely that we will be burned alive without the enemy taking action."
Although Xiang Lang is right, the guards are still a little hesitant. After all, although there may be an enemy ambush in the future, there may not be.
If you move forward, you will go directly into the fire pit, and you may burn to death immediately.
"Don't worry, it won't burn you to death. If we set the fire from east to west and the other party started from west to east, as long as we break through the fire in front of us, there will definitely be no problems later. If you want to survive, listen to me and put it into the fire." Drill it, and leave it to death so that others can survive."
To be honest, at this moment, everyone will do anything to escape for their lives. Although your personal guards are absolutely loyal to you, their good intentions may sometimes lead to bad things. If you don't convince them, you will be stupid.
"Then I'll go talk to them and let's walk towards Yingjian Mountain together."
I have to say that what Xiang Lang said makes sense. Since he has said so, the bodyguard has nothing to refute.
Although what Xiang Lang said was very reasonable, most people were still unwilling to follow him to jump into the fire pit. Only less than 3,000 people were willing to follow Xiang Lang into Yingjian Mountain. The remaining thousands of people were burned to death by the fire. They trampled on each other and killed many people, leaving nearly ten thousand people fleeing like headless flies toward Dong Zhao's encirclement.
"kill."
Seeing the defeated troops rushing towards him, Dong Zhao showed no mercy, so he just gave the order and led his men to kill them.
"No, there's an ambush."
"Sir, what should we do?"
Seeing Dong Zhao leading his troops to attack from the opposite side, the rushing troops panicked. They were almost burned into a roast duck by the fire just now. Now there was an ambush coming from the opposite side. What should they do?
Everyone's eyes were on the leading captain. Now that he had the highest official position among the group, he naturally had the final say.
"what to do?
What else can be done?
Fight, the enemy must be well prepared. We can defeat the generals with our remnants of troops. Let’s surrender anyway.”
The captain looked at the burnt-black surroundings, and the soldiers were scattered here and there. If he wanted to rely on this group of people to fight his way out of the siege, he would simply be chasing a moth into a flame, seeking his own death.
"Surrender, surrender."
"Okay, surrender quickly."
"The captain has ordered us to surrender."
Upon hearing the captain's order to surrender, the nearly 10,000 defeated soldiers who escaped dropped their swords and guns and knelt on the ground to surrender to Dong Zhao's troops.
"All tied up."
To be honest, the other party's surrender was indeed beyond Dong Zhao's expectation, but it was also a good thing. It proved that Xiang Lang was definitely not here, but headed towards Yingjian Mountain as he thought.
"promise."
Without any effort, Dong Zhao directly captured nearly 10,000 enemies.
"Sir, what should we do next? This mountain fire is so big, I'm afraid we won't be able to get through it."
After cleaning the battlefield, the captain came directly to Dong Zhao. Knowing that Pan Yao was still on the other side of the mountain, he had no choice but to support him now.
"No, General Pan Yao will definitely be able to return safely. I will leave you five thousand people here to guard the prisoners. I will go immediately to support Your Majesty."
Dong Zhao glanced at the captain and left 5,000 soldiers and horses for him. He took the remaining 10,000 troops to chase Wang Lang and support Yuan Shu in the battle.
Sure enough, as Xiang Lang guessed, although there was a sea of fire to the west, the sea of fire was not as big as imagined. After suffering some casualties, Xiang Lang led the remaining people through the sea of fire and escaped.
.
"Huh, sir, you were right. This sea of fire is really not that big."
One of the guards glanced at the burned red legs, but his eyes were full of excitement. After all, they were just burned now, which was ten thousand times better than losing their lives.
"Well, we can't stop now. It's not safe here yet. We have to continue eastward and pass through Yingjian Mountain before we are truly out of danger."
Xiang Lang was well protected, and was carried by others when he was crossing the fire, so none of these soldiers were alive, and he was fine at all.
"Sir, let the soldiers rest for a while. Look at what they look like."
Hearing Xiang Lang's words, the guard commander frowned. They had just escaped from the sea of fire, and those who were burned were burned to death. The remaining people were burned in pieces.
"Um?
You can’t rest, it’s not safe here, you’re all burned anyway, just hold on, it’ll be safe once you get out of Yingjian Mountain.”
Xiang Lang glanced at the guard commander and then at the soldiers around him. It wasn't that he didn't feel sorry for these soldiers, but now was really not the time to relax.
After leaving the fire scene, he felt even more nervous. He always felt like there were countless pairs of eyes around him staring at him, as if he was about to be eaten in one bite.
"Ouch, my legs hurt and I can't walk."
After hearing Xiang Lang's words, a soldier collapsed on the ground, covering his legs and wailing.
"I said you can't rest now. Even if you break your legs, you have to keep moving forward. You can't stop. Get up."
Xiang Lang glanced at the soldier, and his brows twisted into the Chinese character "Sichuan".
"If you want to leave, go ahead. I can't walk anyway."
That soldier was also irritated. I originally thought that Xiang Lang was not stupid and there would be no problem if I followed him. Who knows, I almost got burned by him when I walked to the fire place. Now not only are his legs full of blisters, but he also has to step on them.
If Bubbles continues to move forward, isn't this going to cost him his life?
"You can't walk anymore, right? Then I'll give you a ride."
Xiang Lang slowly came to the soldier's side, looked at his face, raised his knife and chopped off the man's head.
"Is there anyone else who wants me to give him a ride?"
Xiang Lang held a long sword dripping with blood in his hand and shouted to the people around him with a dark face.
Seeing the headless body lying on the ground and the blood on the ground, everyone was stunned. After all, no one expected that Xiang Lang, who had always been quiet and quiet, could have such a cruel side, and would kill people with a knife without moving.
The scene was silent for a while, everyone was afraid of offending each other.
"No one wants me to send him on his way, so just run for me yourself. The guards and I will line up at the back. Anyone who runs slower than us will be dealt with according to military law and will be killed without mercy."
Xiang Lang glanced at the soldiers around him and once again ordered everyone not to stop and to continue running forward.
"Quick, quick, run."
"Go quickly."
"forward."
After hearing Xiang Lang's words, everyone cheered up and urged each other to start running forward. Xiang Lang hung behind the army with his personal guards to supervise them not to fall behind.
"Sir, is this really okay?
These are all brothers. If there is an ambush ahead, they may collapse immediately."
The captain of the guard came to Xiang Lang's side and frowned as he looked at Pao Ze who was panicking in front of him.
"Do you think I want it?
I always feel that something is wrong around here, and I am afraid that there are really enemies ambushing us around, and we will be doomed by then. It is really impossible not to force them."
Xiang Lang naturally knew that it was not good to do this, but he was really scared. He felt like his heart was about to jump out.
"That's all we can do now."
The captain of the guard also knew that Xiang Lang was doing it for their own good, so he could only do this now.
"General, look, they are indeed here."
Pan Yao, who was in the woods on both sides, was quietly ambushing there with five thousand soldiers.
"Haha, now that you're here, don't leave and shoot the arrow."
Pan Yao glanced at the enemies below and without hesitation ordered the soldiers to fire arrows.
For a moment, arrows rained down like rain, shooting directly at the Xianglang soldiers in the mountain road, turning their horses over and causing a panic.
"There's an ambush, a defense, a defense."
Sure enough, they were afraid of what would happen. The other party really laid an ambush here. Now it is really over.
Although Xiang Lang gave instructions, except for his personal guards, the remaining soldiers were all running around in a swarm, with no intention of defending at all.
"Charge, break them."
Seeing that the enemy was in disarray, Pan Yao did not hesitate and directly ordered his soldiers to attack the enemy's formation.
The five thousand soldiers were like tigers descending the mountain, charging down one after another, using their swords and guns to kill the enemy.
"Cover your lord's retreat."
Seeing the enemy coming, Xiang Lang's personal guards directly protected him in the middle to cover Xiang Lang's breakout.
"Those who surrender will be spared death; those who fight will be killed without mercy."
Looking at the collapsed enemy, Pan Yao stabbed the enemy directly in front of him, cutting him to the ground. Blood spurted out, turning him into a bloody man.
"Those who surrender will be spared death; those who fight will be killed without mercy."
"Those who surrender will be spared death; those who fight will be killed without mercy."
"Those who surrender will be spared death; those who fight will be killed without mercy."
