Rockets, carrying thick smoke, flew up in the air, crossed arcs, and landed among the Han soldiers under Guan Ying's command.
Bows and arrows fell into the crowd, fire flew out, and the Han soldiers fled in panic.
When Guan Ying saw this scene, he didn't panic at all. Instead, he shouted: "Charge, charge forward. Han Xin retreated into the city. There is no way to escape. Charge forward and capture Han Xin."
At this moment, Guanying was extremely excited.
As long as we go a little further, we can capture Han Xin.
Liu Bang controlled Yizhou and never found any trace of Han Xin. This was Liu Bang's heart knot. If Guan Ying helped Liu Bang catch Han Xin or killed Han Xin, it would be a huge achievement.
Just when Guan Ying ordered his soldiers to rush forward, flying rockets began to fall on the houses on both sides of the road.
The rocket hit the house and instantly burst into flames.
"Hoo! Hoo!!"
The fire burned quickly, and thick smoke billowed into the sky.
The fire spread so fast that people had no time to react.
Seeing this scene, Guan Ying's eyes widened with a look of shock on his face. After thinking for a moment, he shouted: "No, we have fallen into a trap!"
At this moment, Guan Ying was in great distress.
He finally understood.
Because under normal circumstances, when a rocket is fired on a house, although it will hit the beams and pillars, it is unlikely to ignite the fire immediately. But in the current situation, as soon as the rocket lands on the house, there will be fiery snakes scurrying around.
This is too fast.
In a very short period of time, the fire spread directly into one piece, forming a monstrous sea of fire. Such a fire must have been planned long ago. The beams and columns were smeared with kerosene and even spirits were sprayed on them early in the morning.
The fire spread so quickly.
"Rush, rush forward, rush out of the sea of fire."
Guan Ying shouted loudly.
All that can be done now is to rush forward, otherwise the fire will spread from behind and there will be no chance of escape.
While the soldiers under Guan Ying's command rushed forward, the archers under Han Xin's command continued to shoot arrows. Round after round of bows and arrows were shot out, and the arrow rain continued to fall, harvesting the lives of the Han soldiers.
The soldiers who tortured the infants suffered heavy casualties.
The fire is still spreading rapidly.
Under the attack of the fire, the Han soldiers under Guan Ying's command suffered more and more losses, and their formation was also in chaos.
Roasted by the fire, many soldiers turned into burning men.
In such a desperate situation, even if there is a dense rain of bows and arrows in front, no one can stop the Han soldiers from rushing forward. As the Han soldiers sprint desperately, the distance is shortened little by little. When the distance is shortened to twenty
When walking, the effect of the bow and arrow is greatly weakened.
There is no fire spreading in this area.
The area where the fire was burning, twenty steps behind here, was burning brightly.
"Rush, rush forward!"
Guan Ying saw hope and ordered again.
When the soldiers at the front rushed forward, they had barely taken five steps before bursts of screams rang out. The soldiers who rushed forward fell and fell, and screams were heard.
A big hole appeared on the official road.
This big pit stretches across both sides of the street. The length of the big pit is nearly fifteen steps and the depth is nearly three feet. At the bottom of the big pit, there are sharp stakes one by one. Once you fall down, you will be immediately trapped below.
The picket pierced the body.
When Han Xin's soldiers retreated, they took detours from both sides, so they avoided it.
The soldiers under Guan Ying arrived. Because there was a fire burning in the rear, they didn't pay attention to the situation under their feet. They just rushed forward. Therefore, even though the huge pit in front was slightly covered, no one noticed anything strange.
It wasn't discovered until someone fell.
Even if the soldiers at the front discovered the big crater, they could not stop. Because soldiers from the rear were constantly crowding forward, and the soldiers at the rear were all trying to avoid the burning fire.
As a result, the team could not stop.
The Han soldiers in the front row fell down like dumplings.
Screams came and went.
Countless Han soldiers were killed or injured.
The existence of the three-foot-long huge pit made it difficult for Guan Ying's soldiers to rush forward. The soldiers who were blocked at the back had no way to escape and could not avoid the burning sea of fire, and fell into the flames of the fire.
Each one became a burning person and kept struggling.
The screams were extremely sad.
When Guan Ying saw this scene in the crowd, he was filled with anger. He wanted to rush forward and get out of the predicament, but in the current situation, there was no chance at all.
"Surrender, we surrender!"
Guan Ying gave the order.
After the order was conveyed, the soldiers under his command shouted that they were willing to surrender.
The voice reached Han Xin's ears. After hearing it, Han Xin's face was as dark as water. There was no expression on his face. He just stared coldly at the Han soldiers who were caught in the sea of fire.
He did not accept surrender.
Luo Cheng stood next to Han Xin and reminded: "General Han, Guan Ying begged for mercy, won't you spare him?"
Han Xin's eyes were sharp and he said: "Everyone knows that if you don't kill a tiger, you will be injured by it. At this time, Guan Ying will suffer a big loss and fall into death. But once Guan Ying is spared, the number of people under his command will increase."
Once they come out, we can't stop them."
After a pause, Han Xin continued: "What's more, if you don't kill Guan Ying now, it will be more difficult in the future. This is the best opportunity to weaken Liu Bang's strength and cannot be missed. I would rather leave a dead Guan Ying than
Leaving behind a duplicitous Guan Ying."
Luo Cheng looked stern when he heard this.
When he looked at Han Xin, there was a touch of awe on his face.
Luo Cheng said nothing and quietly carried out the order.
At this moment, the soldiers led by Han Xin were still blocking the way for the Han soldiers under Guan Ying to rush forward, causing more and more Han soldiers to fall into the sea of fire, and more and more people were killed and injured.
Seeing that Han Xin was unmoved, Guan Ying cursed loudly: "Han Xin, you have done such an outrageous thing, you will not die in peace."
When Han Xin heard this, he seemed as if he had not heard anything.
Not long after, Guan Ying himself fell into the sea of fire. The corners of his clothes had been ignited by the fire.
At this moment, Guan Ying couldn't escape.
"Clang!"
Guan Ying unsheathed his sword and held it in his hand. His eyes fell on Han Xin in front of him and said, "Han Xin, you will not die well!"
After saying that, Guan Ying exerted force on his hands.
"Bah!"
The sharp sword edge passed through the neck, splitting the skin and severing the throat.
"puff!"
The bright red blood immediately splattered out.
Guan Ying's throat was cut, and he could no longer breathe. The vision in front of him gradually became blurred. The next moment, his vision went dark, and he could no longer see the scene in front of him. Guan Ying felt dizzy in his mind, and he could no longer think.
"thump!"
Guan Ying's body lost its center of gravity and fell backwards, falling to the ground with a thud.
After Guan Ying drew his sword and committed suicide, the soldiers around him committed suicide and followed Guan Ying. Those who were unwilling to commit suicide had no choice but to fall into the sea of fire and turn into burning men. (To be continued)
