Guo Tu shook his head and looked around at the situation around him.
After a moment, Guo Tu had a puzzled look on his face.
He thought for a while, then put his head in front of Yuan Shao and said loudly: "My lord, the terrain here is low-lying, the surrounding mountains and forests are sparse, the vegetation is withered, and it is winter. Even if there are woods, they must be full of snow debris.
It was impossible to use fire attack. The soldiers under Li Ru's command roared loudly. I thought it was scary and deliberately frightened our troops."
Guo Tu spoke firmly and spoke with certainty.
He stared at the situation ahead and was convinced that the so-called 'ignition' was impossible.
Hearing this, Yuan Shao nodded heavily and said: "Gongze (characterized by Guo Tu), what you said makes sense. We have considered the surrounding environment when we pursued Li Ru. The situation here is obviously not suitable for fire attacks.
They shouted to light a fire, but the so-called 'light a fire' did not fit the situation and was definitely meant to scare people."
Yuan Shao also repeated it, as if to encourage himself.
He glanced at the retreating army on the other side of the river, then at the advancing army on the ice, and clenched his fists. Although Yuan Shao agreed with Guo Tu's words, he had a bad feeling in his heart.
The feeling was very strange. It was not that I was afraid of Li Ru's army, but that I couldn't understand the real situation.
He seemed to be in a cage, and the surroundings were hazy, which made Yuan Shao feel bad.
On the battlefield, the roar of "fire" was heard constantly.
Under the hazy night, there were many figures on the battlefield. Yuan Shao's soldiers were walking on the ice. The wide and long ice was full of Yuan Jun soldiers. All the soldiers walked forward cautiously.
At this time, no one noticed that dozens of soldiers appeared in the upper and lower reaches of the river at the same time.
The place where the soldiers appeared was at the head and tail ends of the river across the battlefield. Because the location was remote and difficult to walk, no Yuan Army soldiers passed by here. After this group of soldiers appeared, they did not attract the attention of others.
Everyone rushed to the ice quickly, quickly took out the fire breakers from their arms, and lit the fire breakers.
Immediately, all the soldiers simultaneously picked up the fuse soaked in grease from the ice and lit it with a fire stick.
The soldiers who lit the fuse were naturally soldiers from the Langya Battalion. After lighting the fuse soaked in grease, these soldiers quickly retreated and hid in the mountains and forests.
"Bah! Bah!"
The fuse burned and made a sizzling sound.
Under the night, a string of fire snakes were gradually burning up, looking so dazzling.
However, the soldiers on the battlefield were all focused on escaping or crossing the river, and no one noticed the situation at the head and tail ends of the river. Even Yuan Shao, Guo Tu, Xu You and others were paying attention to Huang
Looking in the direction of Zhong and others, they did not find that dazzling flames had been ignited at the head and tail ends of the river.
The flames are getting closer and closer, and the fuse is gradually burning out.
The soldiers of Langya Battalion who had been hiding fell on the ground and covered their ears with their hands.
"Boom! Boom!..."
A series of loud noises exploded from the upper and lower reaches of the river, and bright lights suddenly burst out, very dazzling, attracting everyone's attention. After the rumbling sound, biting ice cubes splashed everywhere, and then bang bang
It fell to the ground, splashing ice shards all over the sky.
The ice was exploded, and a water surface more than ten feet wide appeared on the ice, and the biting river water kept swaying.
The ice layer connecting the upstream and downstream areas broke apart, and the central ice layer was also affected by the huge explosion.
"Crack! Crack!"
The thick ice layer turned into gaps in the spider web, and there was a constant clicking sound, and the soldiers standing on the ice layer also clearly felt the vibration of the ice layer.
It can make thick ice explode, which can only be done by blasting with a fire pot.
These fire pots were arranged in advance. A deep pit was dug directly on the ice and buried in it. The fuse was then protected by a bamboo tube and pulled out. As long as the fuse was ignited, the earthen pot filled with gunpowder would explode.
Perhaps one cupping pot is not very powerful, but one cupping pot is arranged one after another, and dozens of cupping pots suddenly explode together. The power is enough to burst the ice layer. At this time, the ice layer upstream and downstream of the river burst, and
The ice cube in the center also began to crack and crack, unable to remain stable.
The head and tail of the ice surface were exploded, and the ice layer in the middle was cracked. The ice layer in the middle could not float stably on the water, and began to shake under the trampling of the soldiers.
Many soldiers of Yuan Shao's army have walked across the ice, but there are still many soldiers still walking on the ice.
After the ice began to shake, the soldiers slipped on their feet and fell to the ground. As the ice shook, the soldiers could not stand up at all. Each soldier screamed loudly, and the roars became one.
"Oh, earthquake, earthquake!"
"The ice has cracked, I can't stand firm, oh my butt!"
"Damn it, what's going on? It was fine just now, but suddenly... Oops, my waist flashed, oops, my waist is broken, my waist is broken!"
…
On the ice, soldiers fell down one by one and staggered around.
The ice surface is also shaky.
When the ice broke, there were countless soldiers standing on the ice, which added to the weight of the ice. The huge weight pressed on the ice, making the ice make a cracking sound. At this time, the ice
The layers, like pushed dominoes, produce a series of effects.
Especially after the front and rear ends of the ice exploded, and cracks began to appear in the ice itself, soldiers stepped on it one after another, which intensified the cracks, and soon the ice surface collapsed.
"Wow!"
A soldier fell into the freezing water, causing the soldier to scream.
The ice layer is quite thick, and the terrain here is low-lying, and the water is not very deep. After the soldier fell into the water from the ice, the water only reached the soldier's chest, which could not drown him.
"Crash!"
When the ice broke in one place, the ice in other places began to break one after another. Soldiers fell into the water one by one, soaked in the cold and biting water, and their bodies shivered involuntarily.
In an instant, Yuan Shao's army broke into chaos.
In front of the official road, Huang Zhongzheng led his soldiers to fight, but the ice in the center of the official road broke again, causing the soldiers to be in chaos. There were turmoil on both sides at the same time, which made the morale of Yuan Jun's soldiers very low.
Yuan Shao looked at the cracked ice and was in a daze.
At this moment, Yuan Shao was in a state of confusion.
He quickly woke up and looked towards the place where the explosion came from, only to see a group of soldiers standing in the upper and lower reaches of the river. Seeing this, Yuan Shao immediately understood that these people were responsible for causing the ice to break. Yuan Shao looked at the mess.
The army was filled with hatred, and he shouted loudly: "Open your jaws, Gao Lan, listen to the order!"
Zhang Jia and Gao Lan quickly stood up, clasped their fists and said, "I will obey the order!"
Yuan Shao ordered: "I order you two to lead the troops and kill them, and organize all the soldiers to fight back!"
"promise!"
The two agreed, but with bitter smiles on their faces.
In fact, the two of them have noticed that something is wrong. If there is no turmoil in front of the official road, but the ice layer breaks, this is just a little chaos. Although it has an impact, it will not lead to a change in the final outcome.
With defeat at the front and turmoil at the rear, the situation is already uncontrollable.
The two looked at each other with solemn expressions.
Just as the two were preparing to fight, the rumble of horse hooves suddenly came from the battlefield.
The sound of horse hoofbeats continued to be heard, as well as the sound of powerful war drums and high-pitched horns. After hearing the sound of horse hoofbeats, Zhang Jia and Gao Lan's expressions changed greatly and they looked towards the place where the sound came from.
Ps: The fourth update is completed, it’s time to call it a day and take a break.
