Chapter 260 The Battle of the Lord Beirong IV
The Beirong army who chased into the entrance of the county government office had not returned yet. Zha Ga, who thought he had seen through the Qin army's plan, couldn't wait anymore. He didn't want to waste any more time. He raised the scimitar in his hand and shouted, then led the troops behind him.
The Beirong Army, as ferocious as wolves and tigers, rushed into the streets of Pi County. The entire empty county was suddenly crowded with the Beirong Army, and the streets and alleys were full of wild Beirong Army.
.
"Chief, there is no one alive in the whole city. After waiting for so long, the Qin army did not catch up. Did they get frightened and fled?"
The Beirong general, who looked unkempt and barbaric, shouted arrogantly.
Some people also found it strange: "If they escaped, what about the soldiers we sent to hunt them down? Why didn't they come back?"
"Where have they all gone..."
"Everyone has dispersed. Go look around!"
The Beirong were originally a group of uneducated barbarians. Once they lost their fear and strong control, they became like lawless and vicious gangsters. They broke into the empty houses in the county and looted and destroyed them. Along the way, they did not touch anything.
Any of the troops of the Shang Qin Army also disappeared from the "Pseudo Tiger Clan" that had escaped before, and even the pursuing Beirong Army disappeared.
At this time, a small group of scattered Beirong troops searching the area hurried over.
"Chief, we found the knives left by Kanada and the others, but no one was there!"
"What?!"
They cried out in surprise.
Zha Gana swept away the pile of messy weapons they brought and said solemnly: "Where is the location? Quickly catch up and take a look!"
They followed the direction where Kanada and the others disappeared, but unexpectedly, as soon as they stepped into a narrow lane of houses, there was a roaring sound in the sky. Suspecting that it was an enemy sneak attack, they quickly reined in their horses and stopped.
Looking up, they saw black balls in the sky, wrapped in faint blue flames, heading towards them.
"What is it! Quick, spread out!"
They were startled and quickly dispersed. Before they had time, they used the weapons in their hands to fight back and knock them away.
"Ouch——"
Except for those fireballs that were caught off guard at first and injured some people, the rest were dodged and swung away by the Beirong Army in time. However, those burning fireballs were not so easy to extinguish. When they hit the ground, they shattered into pieces.
There was a piece of black water, but the black "water" was not water. When it touched the fire, it burned more intensely.
The ground was smashed into a sea of fire, and the fireball that was deflected hit the nearby house and quickly covered it and spread, causing a disaster.
boom!
The fire began to burn at a speed that the Beirong Army could not imagine. The crazy fire waves rolled up into the red wall. The fire was raging and black smoke was rising with crackling sounds. The Beirong Army on the edge
Being sucked into it, they let out miserable screams and crawled and rolled away from the wall of fire. The already narrow area of the slum homestead was even more forced to be compressed and packed together.
These fires surrounded the Beirong Army into a relatively narrow circle. Some people escaped to the outside but were not trapped. However, due to the huge fire around them, they wanted to come in to save people but were unable to rush in. They folded around the outside.
I tried to extinguish the rim fire by grabbing branches or objects, but I found that no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't make the fire clear.
"Trouble! How come these fires can't be extinguished!"
"Why is the fire getting bigger and bigger?!"
It can be seen from a high place that most of the poor houses in Pixian County are made of wood and mud, and the roofs are covered with dry thatch. This kind of naturally flammable building will get out of control if it encounters a fire.
What's more, the "black water" dropped by those fireballs is actually not black sewage at all, but "fire in the water" recorded in the Book of Changes, and it is also modern oil.
The people in the dark set up the entire Pixian area as a battlefield and formed a cage to lock up the unruly "barbaric beasts" like the Beirong Army.
The horse under his crotch turned in fright, and heat waves hit his face in waves with the wind. Zha Ga breathed rapidly and tried hard to control it to calm down.
The firelight made his face flush red and his forehead was covered with sweat. His eyes were as straight as copper bells, and he looked up to the sky and shouted: "Who is leading the ambush? Tell me your name!"
There was a sound like an explosion, and amid the rumbling fire, a figure walked out with steady and slow steps.
It was a young man wearing a simple green robe and an eagle mask. His green hair was braided on his chest. He stared at them with cold blue eyes. He moved his mouth and his voice sounded like a loudspeaker.
Kailai: "Surrender or die?"
How could Zha Gana be coerced by him to admit defeat? He recognized the number of people through the firelight. Their clothing and conversation did not resemble the Qin army, and their clothes were unfamiliar and weird. They were said to be from the Jianghu community, but they looked like some strange person or something.
.
"Son, how dare you come up and fight!"
He angrily threw the machete in his hand and struck the young man in front of him in a half-moon arc. Unexpectedly, the man's movements were sharp and neat, and he dodged the attack, and then stood safe and sound.
Chuang Tian smiled at Zha Ga: "It seems that you have chosen... to die."
The order issued by the Holy Lord did not say that these Beirong people must be kept alive. In this case-"Fire arrows!"
Many crossbowmen climbed on the roof. They aimed at the Bei Rong army who was trapped in the fire and fired wildly. Arrows fell like rain. The enemy had no way to avoid it. They were hiding in the east and west in a small area. They were really overwhelmed.
, at this time, Gusuo, who had always been like a silent shadow, soared into the sky. He was huge in size, raised his sledgehammer and danced in circles. The hurricane that was raised fiercely swept away the arrows shot around, and it was actually extremely powerful.
"Good boy!"
Seeing this, Zagana praised excitedly, and then let people concentrate their strength to attack the houses that were burned to pieces by the fire, and then picked up some dry charcoal sticks and smashed them on the roof. They were not stupid, even though they were temporarily
Their movements were limited, but they were not without any backhand power. While they had people blocking arrows in front of them, they also threw fire at the rooftops of the enemy troops on the opposite side, leaving them no place to live or stand.
From time to time, the crossbowman was not stable enough, and the thatched house could not withstand the fire attack. They looked at each other and quickly climbed down to evacuate. The other end of the ancient rope was like a human-shaped cannonball, hitting everything where it hit with the sledgehammer.
The collapse caused him to clear out an empty path for a moment. The fire waves on both sides were extinguished for a moment, and he jumped out and rushed towards Chuangtian.
Chuang Tian frowned, feeling an invisible intimidation and pressure from such a reckless man.
But he did not retreat timidly. When he was approaching him, a slim and graceful figure jumped out first.
"Chuang Tian, you can't do this, so let me do it instead."
Long Yue raised her lips and let out a sneer, and quickly formed a seal with her fingers. Then she waved her arms and saw a trace of milky white witchcraft floating around her body. The witchcraft floated in the air and gradually transformed into many tiny objects as small as fine sand.
