The sea of fire burned like a rolling wave, setting fire to the clothes of the soldiers under the tower.
After the tung oil was poured down earlier, the splashing tung oil was thrown on the soldiers' clothes, staining the clothes with tung oil. When the fire burned and sparks flew everywhere, the clothes stained with tung oil were instantly ignited.
"Crack! Crack!"
Under the city tower, after a raging fire was ignited in the wood, explosions continued to sound.
At this time, there was already a sea of fire under the city tower.
"Get out of here, get out of here, don't block my way." A soldier whose clothes were on fire quickly pushed forward while tearing off the clothes he was wearing, trying to rush out.
"Ah?? Save me, save me!"
A soldier has turned into a burning man, with fire all over his body and he is struggling constantly.
As the soldier twisted his body, he could already smell the aroma of roasted meat.
Below the city tower, there was chaos. Soldiers were in a panic and rushed out quickly. The ladders erected on the city wall also ignited fire, making it impossible for the soldiers on the city tower to go downstairs. They could only be slaughtered. The sea of hot fire
It became more and more fierce, and the soldiers below the tower could not continue to attack the city.
Wang Can stood on the tower and glanced at the tower which had gradually become calm.
Not long after, corpses were piled all over the city tower.
Among these corpses, there were soldiers under his own command, but most of them were soldiers under Yuan Shu and Lu Bu. Moreover, Dian Wei, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Chen Dao and others were fighting hard on the tower, and the situation on the tower was quickly stabilized.
.
Wang Can turned his eyes, looked at Lu Bu, and shouted loudly: "Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Chen Dao, Zhang Ren, follow your orders!"
The four people immediately ran over, clasping their fists and saying, "The general is here!"
Wang Can loudly ordered: "I order the four of you to go downstairs immediately and lead the soldiers to stand ready under the tower. When the city gate opens, you will lead the soldiers to fight out immediately."
"promise!"
The four of them answered and immediately turned around to carry out the order.
The remaining enemy troops on the tower were no longer of concern. Even if Gan Ning and others stayed on the tower, they would be of little use. Therefore, Wang Can sent four men down to gather soldiers to prepare for a charge.
Judging from the current situation, it is inevitable for Yuan Shu and Lu Bu to temporarily retreat. Because the morale of Yuan Jun and Lu Jun was burned by a fire, the soldiers were panicked. Even if they reluctantly continued to fight, it would be difficult to win. Especially
The soldiers were in a mess under the tower. Many soldiers had been burned to death by the fire, leaving a shadow in their hearts.
It is definitely not suitable to continue fighting.
Wang Can leaned on the female wall with his hands, looked at Lu Bu and Yuan Shu in the distance from the tower, and showed a smile.
It’s hard for these two people to get anything done!
Lu Bu was superb in martial arts, but he was just a reckless man. He was suitable for charging on the battlefield, but not suitable for being a prince. Because Lu Bu was not very good at marching and forming formations, it was difficult for him to command an army. Furthermore, Lu Bu had no city strategy and was arrogant.
If you don't listen to what others say, it's difficult to protect one side. However, Lu Bu's ambition is not small. Once such a person embarks on a path that he shouldn't take, his end has already been doomed.
As for Yuan Shu, he was quite capable, but because of his background he was arrogant and self-righteous.
Wang Can leads the troops to fight Yuan Shu and Lu Bu. As long as they fight steadily, they will definitely be able to keep Lu Bu and Yuan Shu out of the city.
Outside the city tower, Yuan Shu and Lu Bu looked at the fire burning under the city tower, and the corners of their mouths twitched slightly. Especially when they saw the brave soldiers turned into burning men and kept struggling, they felt even worse in their hearts.
At this time, Wang Can did not send troops, but the soldiers under the two men were already retreating.
The situation on the battlefield gradually became beyond the control of the two men.
Zhang Liao stood beside Lu Bu with a sword in hand and admonished: "My lord, Wang Can has been prepared for a long time. He has been waiting for us to attack the city. Now Wang Can uses fire to disperse the soldiers. The fire has spread. We will definitely not be able to do it."
Attack again, withdraw your troops and rest!" Zhang Liao looked at the struggling soldiers with a sad expression on his face.
It's a pity that every living life was burned to death like this. It's such a pity.
Lu Bu looked at Yuan Shu, expecting Yuan Shu's answer.
In fact, Yuan Shu's Jian'an soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and he had long thought of withdrawing his troops. However, when he saw Lu Bu sitting still, he was embarrassed to be weaker than Lu Bu, so he remained reserved and silent.
Now Zhang Liao admonished Lu Bu to withdraw his troops, and Lu Bu also had the idea of withdrawing his troops. This gave Yuan Shu an opportunity to get off the donkey, and he had a way to get down. Yuan Shu nodded and said, "Okay, let's withdraw our troops first, and then go back and rest for a while.
After making a plan to attack Wang Can, attack Wang Can again."
Lu Bu heard this and ordered: "Send the gold and withdraw the troops!"
As the order was passed on, the clanging gongs immediately sounded in the military formation.
"Dang! Dang!..."
On the battlefield, the sound of gongs was constantly being heard. After the shrill sound sounded, the originally chaotic situation became even more chaotic.
Because the soldiers who were retreating under the city tower were burned by the fire were crowded with people and were squeezing out. After they heard the sound of the gong, they immediately became anxious and wished they could grow wings and fly out. But one by one
The soldiers were close to each other, so crowded that there was no room for them to escape, making it difficult to rush out.
The sound of the gong was like a reminder, making the situation out of control.
Wang Can stood on the tower and knew the situation below well.
He saw the situation below turned into a mess and shouted: "Open the city gate!"
With an order, the soldiers responsible for guarding the city gate opened the city gate. The moment the city gate was opened, the soldiers who were retreating outside the city were so happy when they saw this situation that they had other ideas. Some soldiers even
He yelled: "The city gate is open, hurry up, kill back quickly."
As he spoke, the soldiers rushed into the city with their swords in hand.
Immediately, countless more soldiers rushed forward.
When the city gate first opened, it was difficult to see clearly what was going on inside the city. These soldiers wanted to perform meritorious service, so they rushed forward desperately. However, as the city gate gradually expanded, the situation inside the city was also exposed.
When the soldiers who were charging toward the city gate saw it, they braked suddenly and stopped.
In the city, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Chen Dao and Zhang Ren stood on horseback.
Behind the four people were soldiers wearing armor and holding Han swords. These soldiers were energetic, full of fighting spirit, and they were all soldiers with strong physical strength.
The army stood in formation inside the city, exuding an extraordinary momentum, as powerful as a tiger.
The soldiers charging towards the city gate suddenly stopped, but the soldiers behind them did not see the situation inside the city. In addition, the inertia of running was too great and it was difficult to stop for a while. So after rushing up, there was another collision between the soldiers, standing at the mouth.
The soldiers in front were knocked to the ground, grinning in pain.
When Gan Ning saw this, a sneer appeared on his lips.
He raised the Hengjiang Sword in his hand and shouted: "Kill!" As soon as he finished speaking, Gan Ning had already ridden his horse to kill.
"kill!"
Zhou Tai, Chen Dao, and Zhang Ren also carried their own weapons and led their troops to fight out.
In the city, the roar of soldiers resounded loudly. All the soldiers roared loudly, the sound was as loud as thunder. The soldiers rushed out with sharp Chinese knives and rushed towards the retreating enemy troops.
At this time, Lu Bu turned around and saw a group of soldiers coming out of the city, with a look of surprise on his face.
He thought carefully, looked at Yuan Shu and said: "General Yuan, if we continue to flee, we will definitely be defeated by the army behind us. Instead of doing this, it is better to lead the troops to fight back and kill Yizhou from the city.
The army is defeated, and then retreats. This way, we can ensure that we will not be pursued when we retreat, what do you think?"
