At this moment, he turned to look at Xu Jia, placing a lot of hope on Xu Jia.
"It's not impossible to win with a hard attack, but there are two aspects. One is that the loss is too large, and the other is that the beast king has a certain wisdom. When he finds that he is unable to defeat him, will he take away the immature lotus seeds, or simply
destroy."
As a general, it is impossible that he had not thought of these contents. He just said that he also had a headache. What should he do? Seeing Xu Jia say this, he believed that Xu Jia must have a way to solve it, so he motioned to Xu Jia to continue.
"Attack with fire!"
"Attack with fire? In this time of weather, attacking with fire will only burn your own people."
Xiao Lie asked doubtfully.
Xiao Lie didn't want to use such an extreme method, it was best to be more stable.
"I wonder if General Xiao has heard of an allusion on earth. A man named Zhuge Liang borrowed the east wind and burned Cao Cao's fleet."
"Isn't it Zhuge Liang who borrowed the east wind during the Three Kingdoms period? I've heard of it."
"Yes, he can borrow the east wind, and so can I."
"you can also?"
"Yes, it is not a magical thing for Zhuge Liang to borrow the east wind. He is well versed in astronomy and geography. He used some abnormal phenomena he saw to draw the conclusion that the wind will change direction.
And the conclusion I draw from today’s observation is that there will definitely be an east wind tomorrow at Shenshi. Then let the soldiers surround the forest, light a fire, and wait to eat the roasted beasts."
"But the lotus seeds..."
What Xiao Lie was thinking was, if the fire burns down, will the lotus seeds become popcorn?
"Lotus seeds are born in the deepest part of the cave, and there must be sufficient water around them, so there is no need to worry. In the final battle with the Beast King, the general will still have to contribute."
"I don't need you to issue any military orders, but if there is a problem with your judgment and a major event is delayed, you will definitely not be able to escape punishment."
Xiao Lie's attitude towards Xu Jia has changed, but he still has great doubts about what Xu Jia said.
Back in the meeting room, Xiao Lie arranged the preparations for the next day. Although these people had doubts, no one dared not listen to Xiao Lie's words.
At the end of the second day, the wind was still blowing in Xu Jia's direction, which made Xiao Lie slowly frown, because if what he said could not be derogatory to being nosy, and if it was delayed for two more days, it was very likely that Lianzi would have been taken away.
take away.
Looking at Xu Jia's side, he was still unhurried.
Just as they were about to arrive at Shenshi, Xu Jia stepped forward and said to Xiao Lie, "You can prepare to light the fire."
"Can this wind direction light a fire?"
Xiao Lie, feeling the direction of the wind, looked at Xu Jia doubtfully.
"Can."
Xu Jia was quite sure.
"All right."
Although Xiao Lie was still very suspicious, he still passed on the order.
As soon as Shenshi arrived, a fire broke out near the forest, and with a burst of dust, the wind changed its direction and blew into the forest.
In fact, Xu Jia didn't look at the weather. The reason why he said this was to confuse Xiao Lie. This is a common sense in physics. The flow of wind goes to hot places. But he deliberately said it mysteriously so that Xiao Lie could know about himself.
More trust.
As the fire ignited, the forest became restless. From time to time, many wild beasts rushed out of the forest, and Xiao Lie's men, who were well prepared, began to massacre.
The fire burned more and more fiercely. Wild beasts could not extinguish the fire, and the fear that fire brought to them was innate. More and more wild beasts rushed out of the forest, and Xiao Lie's army began to fight.
The frightened beasts had only one thought of escaping. How could they be the opponents of Xiao Lie, a tiger and wolf army? Soon they fell one after another, and the roars of wild beasts could be heard in the forest.
, these were those who could not escape and were burned alive.
The smell of meat comes from the forest, making people very hungry.
No, why does it smell so good?
Looking over at the scent, Xiao Lie almost fainted. At this moment, he saw that Xu Jia was skewering a porcupine leg with a wooden root, roasting it with oil under the mountain fire. The soldiers over there were fighting.
While he was enjoying the delicious food, Xiao Lie walked over on the spot carrying his sword.
"General, have you brought any wine? Let's have some together. It's very delicious."
"you..."
Although I really wanted to give Xu Jia a blow, I finally held back.
This guy Xu Jia is really special. Others are charging into battle, fighting, and the atmosphere is tense, but he is very calm, as if nothing has happened.
Xiao Lie was originally nervous, but seeing that the overall situation was settled, he didn't worry anymore. Instead, he threw the wine bottle hanging on his body directly to Xu Jia. When the fire had just weakened, he led several of his men and rushed away.
Go in.
Not long after, Xiao Lie came back with his men.
"Give me the order and celebrate on the spot tonight!"
At this time, there were no howls on the battlefield because there were no living beasts.
Although the soldiers led by Xiao Lie have been winning battles, they have never been able to complete the mission with almost no damage like this time.
The soldiers felt extremely happy, so they imitated Xu Jia and cut off the limbs and trunks of the beasts, waiting for the meat, and roasted them when they found a fire.
But no one roasted it as fragrant as Xu Jia's roasted meat, so several leaders tentatively sat next to Xu Jia and looked at the meat Xu Jia roasted.
Xu Jia, on the other hand, refused to accept anyone who came, and everyone had a share. He also distributed some spices to the soldiers, and everyone talked and laughed.
During the banquet, many people came to toast Xu Jia with wine. They knew clearly that Xu Jia had the greatest credit for being able to return home intact this time. Xu Jia did not refuse anyone who came, and he quickly became one with the soldiers.
When Xiao Lie saw this scene, he also had infinite emotions in his heart. He used to look down on these arrogant people, but he didn't know that just with one idea, he could save his soldiers from losing so much. You must know that these soldiers were led by him personally.
Every soldier who came out was the condensation of his hard work, and he was heartbroken when one of them was lost.
"Go ahead and have a good relationship with him. I'll tell the boss to keep him here."
Xiao Lie looked at the men around him who had long wanted to go over and said something.
And these people ran over in a hurry. The leader who talked the most before gave him a bear hug and said words of thanks, which made Xu Jia feel chills. Why do people in this demon world like this?
There was a cow running before, and now another one came. When I asked, this person was also a cow, and the cow was running. There was no need to ask further, they were from the same family.
A few days later.
Inside the Demon King's Palace in the Demon City.
An invisible figure was sitting in the middle of the lobby. Below him was Xiao Lie, who had just returned from the victory.
"How is this person?"
This voice echoed in the lobby, but I couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman, and I couldn't tell its specific age.
"Hui Demon Lord, this person has a quick mind, unconstrained ideas, and is very talented in fighting. He is a rare talent."
"Well. The people on earth in the lower realm have many thoughts, but they are also quite smart."
"Netherworld? Earthlings?"
Xiao Lie was a bit unable to turn around.
"He is Xu Jia."
"Xu Jia? Are you saying that he is the person who came from the earth to the fairy world and was designed again?"
"Who else besides him? What I want to know now is who helped him when he was caught."
"My subordinates will find out as soon as possible."
"Don't alarm him. He doesn't know who helped him. Besides, he can steal half of the treasure map in your hand at the right time."
Although Xiao Lie was full of doubts, the Demon Lord's words could never be questioned.
