Chapter 598 Why Do You Say the Chu Army Is Polite? Tu Sui: There Is No Word "Surrender" In This General's Dictionary!
At the command, the three armies followed.
More than 40,000 Chu soldiers crawled out of the bushes and darkness.
Their legs urged their bodies to run wildly towards the camps of the Qin-Qi coalition. Their hands frantically struck flints to light the torches in their comrades' hands, and then used their comrades' torches to light their own torches.
Twenty breaths ago, it was still pitch dark outside the Qin-Qi coalition camp.
Twenty breaths later, more than 40,000 torches had illuminated the southeast of the Qin-Qi coalition camp as bright as day!
"Quick! Run! Faster!"
"Qi thieves and Qin dogs have blocked my Xia Pi city and insulted my army for a long time. Don't you hate them? Speed up! Use a fire to avenge the shame!"
"Today, our army will use this fire to let the world know that our Great Chu is the descendant of Zhu Rong!"
"Kill!"
"Enemy attack!!!"
Accompanied by shouts and roars, Zhao Xiang led his troops and horses to crash into the central camp of the Qin-Qi coalition.
Laude rushed into the rear camp of the Qin-Qi coalition.
After stabbing a patrolling soldier to death with a gun, Laude hurriedly ordered: "Sprinkle tung oil, quickly!"
"Be careful with the torches, lighting a fire is the business of the rear, don't burn the rear of our army!"
While giving the order, Laude personally took out a bamboo tube from the bamboo basket hanging behind his horse.
After opening the tube cover, Laude did not have time to sprinkle it, and directly threw the bamboo tube and the tung oil in the tube towards a tent.
As soon as he threw out a bamboo tube, Laude's warhorse carried him over the tent.
Laude also happened to open the second bamboo tube and threw it towards the next tent.
Under Laude's leadership, Laude's troops swept along the passage in the rear camp of the Qin army like a hurricane!
But as he swept, Laude felt something was wrong.
After throwing out the last bamboo tube, Loude suddenly asked: "Where are the enemies?"
"Who has seen the enemies?"
The family soldiers and clansmen beside Loude looked at each other in surprise: "I just killed an enemy soldier. If I had known that the clan leader wanted to kill the enemy soldier, I would have left that enemy soldier to the clan leader."
"You idiot, the clan leader is wondering why there are so few enemies here!"
"Ah? Then, why?"
Since the battle, Loude's troops have occasionally run into some Qin-Qi coalition troops escaping from the tents. Loude's troops alone have killed more than a thousand Qin-Qi coalition troops.
So many people did not find anything wrong.
After all, there are indeed enemies in this camp.
However, after hearing Loude's words, the Chu army soldiers who were addicted to pouring oil and could not extricate themselves suddenly realized a problem.
There are too few enemies in this camp!
"Chief, a large number of enemy troops are spotted ahead!"
Just as the Lao clan members were horrified, a shout suddenly sounded from the front.
Lao De didn't even bother to continue to add fuel to the fire, but urgently ordered: "Speed up and turn!"
Lao De squeezed the horse's belly and urged the horse to run in the direction indicated by the clan members.
Then.
Lao De saw more than a thousand Qi soldiers with confused faces under the flag of the rear army of the Qin-Qi coalition!
Lao De: o(Д)っ!
Qi Army: o(Д)っ!
The good news is that Lao De's troops have formed a military advantage over the Qin-Qi coalition in the local battlefield.
The bad news is that they are here to attack the enemy camp at night!
Lao De cried out in shock: "Retreat!"
Qi Army screamed in shock: "Retreat!"
More than a thousand Qi soldiers ran wildly towards the west.
More than ten thousand Chu soldiers ran wildly towards the east.
The two enemy armies, who were clearly intent on chopping off each other's heads, chose to flee when they met face to face.
This created the most peaceful scene on this battlefield!
Three miles northeast of the camp.
Ying Chengjiao stood on his horse, looking at the torches filling the camp of the Qin-Qi coalition army, with a smile on his face: "Send a heavy army to attack at night, but don't burn our camp?"
"Since you are here, why should the Chu army be so polite?"
"The Chu army can't bear to burn our camp, so our army will help them burn it!"
"Tu Sui, go and see them off."
Tu Sui and Tian Zhen shouted excitedly at the same time: "Yes!"
After speaking, Tu Sui pulled the reins and ran out with his troops.
Tian Zhen personally struck the flint and lit the torch in his hand.
After the fire started here, six thousand crossbowmen climbed out of the bushes a hundred feet northwest of the Qin army camp, lit torches with flint, and put crossbow arrows wrapped in linen and dipped in tung oil on the torches.
When the fire started, the general Sima Chuang shouted: "Target our army camp."
"Shoot!"
Six thousand crossbowmen raised their crossbows and pulled the triggers at Sima Chuang's command!
"Bang bang bang~~~"
The bowstrings exploded.
Looking up at the six thousand fire arrows flying into the sky and falling towards the Qin-Qi coalition camp like six thousand meteors, Laude's pupils suddenly shrank.
Since Ying Chengjiao chose to fire fire arrows at the Qin-Qi coalition camp, it means that Ying Chengjiao must have spilled grease in the camp.
Loud didn't know how much oil Ying Chengjiao spilled here, he only knew that he had just spilled a lot of tung oil here!
Once the fire arrows touch the tung oil...
"Boom!!!"
When dozens of arrows touch the same tent, the cloth soaked with oil is ignited in an instant.
The suddenly rising flames even make the air rub and make a muffled sound!
And when all the fire arrows fall, the rear camp area of the Qin-Qi coalition has turned into a sea of fire!
No!
It's not just the rear camp area.
Looking around, this area of the Qin-Qi coalition, where more than 300,000 soldiers are stationed, has been burned down!
Lauder roared heart-breakingly: "Quick!"
"Disperse your formations and charge eastward!"
"quick!!!"
At the same time, a sound of copper clang also spread across the battlefield.
Apparently, Zhaoxiang, who was responsible for attacking other military camps, also discovered the fire attack and issued a withdrawal order.
But in fact, there was no need for orders from captains such as Laude and Zhaoxiang.
The soldiers of the Chu army have already had rich experience in fire attacks.
When the peripheral vision captured the moment when the fire arrows rose, many soldiers of the Chu army subconsciously ran towards Xiapi City.
And when the flames really rose, all the soldiers of the Chu army rushed forward without hesitation!
But, can they escape?
"Save me! Save me! Sand! Throw sand on me!"
"Don't get close to me! Second or third son, shoot the person who is on fire!"
"This road is blocked! There's a fire ahead! Don't push! Don't push...ah!!!"
"I-I can't breathe!"
The flowing flames licked everywhere, and as long as they licked the inner clothes of a Chu army soldier, the person's whole body would be on fire until he was burned into a charred corpse.
The scorching heat quickly heated up the armor on the soldiers, scalding their skin and causing them unparalleled pain.
More than 10,000 people ran together in the fire scene specially arranged by Ying Chengyu, which resulted in a large number of pushing and stampeding incidents. Many people were clearly on the edge of the fire scene, but they could not withstand the pushing and pushing behind them and could only watch themselves. Fall into fire.
The knights on horseback should have been the first to escape the flames, but the lack of oxygen and thick smoke caused by the large-scale burning made these knights the first to fall unconscious and then be submerged in the flames.
In addition, there are also the continuous crossbow arrows coming from the sky, threatening the lives of every Chu army indiscriminately.
Death, mourning and flames have become the theme song of today’s Qin-Qi coalition camp!
"Clan leader?"
"Clan leader!"
A sharp pain forced Lauder to open his eyes.
And as the sky red with flames came into view, Lauder subconsciously widened his eyes: "General, this is..."
Several family soldiers hurriedly helped Lauder up: "Chief, you finally woke up!"
"The clan leader actually fell off his horse just now. We are really worried. Is the clan leader okay?"
"Clan leader, we have escaped from the sea of fire, we are safe!"
Lauder urged his sore body to stand up with difficulty. Looking around, he saw that he was already outside the fire scene.
But when he came, he was surrounded by twelve thousand soldiers.
But at this moment, there were only a few hundred members of the Jiabing tribe left around him!
Taking a deep breath to suppress the sadness in his heart, Lauder ordered in an urgent voice: "Quick! Keep running away!"
"We can't even talk about safety."
"Be sure to escape back to Xiapi as soon as possible..."
Before Lauder could finish his words, his sight was captured by another piece of fire in front of him!
With the soldiers holding torches to illuminate their faces, Tu Sui rode forward, looked down at Laud's troops, and spoke loudly:
"The Great Qin Tu Sui is here!"
"Sent you all off, on your way!"
Lauder:! ! !
Our troops are already in such miserable condition, shouldn't you be the first to persuade us to surrender?
As long as you persuade me, I will definitely agree.
What if you don’t persuade me?
Lauder shouted without hesitation: "I am willing to surrender!"
However, Tu Sui had already given the order: "Kill without mercy!"
In Tu Sui's dictionary, there is no word "surrender"!
…
Half an hour ago.
Xiang Han led the army to attack left and right, and from time to time sent his troops to destroy the approaching small groups.
Seeing more and more fire dragons gathering, Xiang Han felt more and more happy: "Qin Chang'an has a long-standing reputation."
"Of course, he was finally played by me, the leader of the Xiang clan, in the midst of applause!"
While shouting, Xiang Han raised his eyes and looked northwest.
Just when Xiang Han's eyes fell, a fire dragon suddenly appeared in the world, and immediately accelerated towards Xiang Han after appearing.
Xiang Han knew that it was Sun Xing and Jing Huan who had already been ambushing him!
Xiang Han laughed heartily: "Come on!"
"Let more enemy troops come!"
"Soldiers, turn to the northwest and kill the enemy!"
While shouting, Xiang Han tightened the reins and led the army to outflank the troops in the northwest direction.
In the encirclement formed by Xiang Han's troops and reinforcements, hundreds of fire dragons were twisting and struggling like loaches trapped in a net.
But the more these fire dragons struggled, the more excited Xiang Han became.
"Soldiers, charge and kill!"
Choosing a nearby fire dragon, Xiang Han galloped forward on horseback.
However, when he got closer and could see clearly, the cheerful and wild smile on Xiang Han's face froze in place.
I saw that none of the Qi soldiers under the fire dragon was carrying a gun. Instead, everyone was carrying a long bamboo pole.
And there were dozens of torches stuck crookedly on the bamboo pole.
Xiang Han used 12,000 men to create the appearance of 85,000 troops.
But these Qi troops used one person to make it look like hundreds of people!
Xiang Han was stunned on the spot, even forgetting to kill the Qi army in front of him.
"General, was you deceived?!!"
"not good!"
Xiang Han was agitated and shouted in horror: "Send the whole army to return to Xiapi City to aid!"
Looking at Xiang Han's troops who were quickly returning to Xiapi City for reinforcements, Li Xin clicked his tongue and said, "It was discovered quickly."
"The Chinese army holds on!"
"Both the left and right wings, harass Yudou!"
