Chapter fifty-seven fire

The Huai River has south.

The Yangzhou Army Camp is now trapped in a prairie fire. The long fire dragon burns all the combustible materials around it, causing the fire to continue to be exported.

As for the surroundings, there were heart-wrenching and heart-wrenching roars.

Countless Yangzhou soldiers shouted endlessly in the fire...

There were endless begging for mercy, and wailing sounds filled with helpless curses...

Teams of sergeants struggled to survive in the sea of ​​fire.

But everything seems so powerless.

Between the power of nature, people are often extremely fragile and have no room for resistance. Many soldiers are gradually swallowed by fire.

There are people who are immersed in their sleep and are still unable to wake up before they can wake up.

There are also soldiers who were awakened by night attacks but could only roll around the long fire dragon with their heads in their arms.

The scene was once in a mess and was already out of control.

The battalions of the Yangzhou Army were almost on the verge of collapse.

...

Main business periphery.

At this time, Zhou Tai was wearing armor on his body, holding a long sword in his hand and pointing the guards in the formation, surrounded by his personal guards.

Thousands of water thieves were waiting for the camp at this moment, quietly staring at the strong fire connected between the camps.

Hearing the heart-wrenching screams, the faces of the men still showed seriousness and no sympathy.

Obviously, the thieves have long been accustomed to this situation.

Since several days, he has led the crowd to win several battles, which has also made Zhou Tai increasingly respected by Chen Wen, the governor of Yangzhou. Not only has he added the military camp to defend one side of the defense line, but he also gave Zhou Tai the right to enter and exit the main business freely.

With the privilege of free entry and exit, Zhou Tai's design to break the enemy is easy.

Tonight, he just led more than a hundred personal guards to sneak into the main camp, working inside and outside, attacking and killing guards everywhere without hesitation, easily controlling the front line of the camp gate, and then ordered the troops and horses of the headquarters to quietly surround and set fire.

This is also the key reason why fires can spread to the Yangzhou Army Camp in just one night.

Before he took action, he quickly sent someone to cross the river to inform Yuan Yao and reported the action plan to seek support.

...

"This...what is going on? Why are there suddenly storms between the camps without warning?"

At this moment, even the highest commander, the governor of Yangzhou, Chen Wen, was awakened from his sleep at first, and was ravaged by the long fire dragon when he left the camp, which made him look dirty and embarrassed.

He was still not sure about the situation of the battle, so he had to intercept several numbers and was in a mess. He was fleeing around in a panic and questioned the school sternly.

But several people just looked at each other and stammered for a long time and couldn't answer.

It was really... Everything happened too suddenly, and everyone didn't know what happened.

Just as Chen Wen was angry and scolding everyone, he rushed to the scene.

This is the commander of another unit under Chen Wen.

He came to his feet, and a serious look suddenly appeared on his face, and he bowed and reported in a deep voice: "Report to the envoy, the matter has been investigated at the end, and the whole story has been clarified."

"This is caused by Zhou Tai, the newly attached thief leader, raised his troops to cause chaos."

A voice.

This general quickly reported thousands of thieves on the side camp to the death and their whereabouts were unknown.

"What?"

Hearing this, Chen Wen felt like he was hit by a thunderbolt in the sky, and his head seemed to be buzzing. Zhou Tai's rebellion caught him off guard and was unexpectedly expected.

After all, Zhou Tai led his troops to come and rely on them, and in the past few days, he did personally lead the soldiers of our troops to defeat the Yuan army on the north bank.

Who would have thought that he was a fraudulent surrender?

For a moment, Chen Wen suddenly felt that his brain capacity was limited and he could not access such a huge amount of information.

Why did Zhou Tai rebel?

only.

If the facts are gone, it will be useless even if you don’t want to believe them!

Until now, the commander of another army immediately exhorted loudly: "Empress, in the current situation, our army is no longer a matter of confusion about why Zhou Tai rebelled. The key is to quickly gather the subordinates and withdraw from the camp to make the right way."

"Now the brink of fire is spreading across the camps. If the soldiers are not gathered together as soon as possible, I am afraid that the entire army will be in danger of overturning this battle, and Shouchun will not be protected!"

After receiving the tip, Chen Wen immediately woke up and immediately ordered the other commander Deng Dang to fully be responsible for collecting the orders of the troops.

Until now, Chen Wen himself has a sense of self-knowledge.

He has been well-read since childhood and is familiar with various books such as governing the country.

If we talk about governing prefectures and counties, we should cultivate the fields and maintain the people.

This is naturally no problem.

But he was in trouble with the command of the battle formation during the battle.

However, Deng Dang, the commander of other troops, was brave and capable of commanding troops, so he decided to use it in such a critical moment.

"Here."

Deng, the commander of another unit, bowed his hand and fisted to receive the order in front of him.

Immediately, as Deng Dang's flag waved slightly, the soldiers who were originally swept by fire and fleeing like headless flies seemed to have found their backbone.

So they used the fire to move closer to him.

The fire continued to burn, but as the wind gradually weakened, the spread rate further stopped.

With Deng Dang's effective command, until the second half of the night, the entire Yangzhou army had gathered about 2,000 people.

As for the rest of the people, almost all of them were buried in the sea of ​​fire.

Among the remaining two thousand defeated soldiers, most of them were covered in dust and dark faces. There were countless people who were burned and choked with thick smoke!

After gathering the soldiers, Deng Dang immediately organized military forces to escort Yangzhou Governor Chen Wen to escape from the weak mouth of the fire.

Escape to the periphery and finally got rid of danger.

However, they couldn't help but feel even more frightening.

Just as they escaped from the sea of ​​fire, Zhou Tai also led the soldiers from the headquarters who had been waiting for a long time and surrounded him.

This can be said to be "just breaking out of the sea of ​​fire, I entered the pack of wolves again."

At this moment, the soldiers of Yangzhou couldn't help but feel desperate.

They are naturally familiar with the combat power of these thousands of water thieves and are already very powerful.

Even in their heyday, they were not sure to defeat them.

not to mention.

Now they are just a group of defeated soldiers, how can they have the slightest combat power?

Until this moment, Chen Wen showed anger on his face, walked out slowly with a firm step, and then shouted loudly towards Zhou Tai in the formation:

"Zhou Tai, since you depended on our army, has this official treated you and his soldiers unfairly?"

"Why did you rebel and want to kill our entire army?"

With a deafening question, Chen Wen's originally elegant face was already ferocious, and he looked like he was gritting his teeth.

Hearing this, Zhou Taicai slowly rode his horse out, held up his long sword, and said with a smile: "That's right, Chen Wen, you really treat me well, but it's a pity that I have led my brothers to serve Mr. Yuan."

"Accompanying you and these ten victories in the past few days is just the plan of Mr. Yuan. The purpose is just to win your trust and take the opportunity to annihilate you and others!"

"It's just that you're too naive. You really believe in my general's fraudulent surrender."

Until now, Zhou Tai no longer had to hide it, so he simply told him about it.

After expressing his words quickly, Chen Wen's face suddenly turned ashes as earth and his heart was despair.

This fact has hit him in a slump.

Zhou Tai had already secretly followed Yuan.

But he didn't notice it at all. Instead, he naively thought that Zhou Tai could be used for his own use and could be reused!

After thinking about it carefully, Chen Wen smiled bitterly and couldn't help but laugh at himself.

"I will not be discouraged. All the soldiers, follow my generals and defeat the robbers and protect the envoys from the siege."

"kill……"

It has to be said that Deng Dang also enjoyed a certain military prestige in the army. Even though the soldiers of Yangzhou were exhausted and exhausted at this time, they were still inspiring to launch a tenacious attack with weapons such as swords and guns.

But Zhou Tai had already prepared, and saw this, he just smiled coldly and waved his knife to order.

"Swish swish swish swish..."

The next second, the thieves all took their bows and crossbows and shot arrows out.

One by one, thousands of arrows were fired at once, like arrows flying all over the sky, falling into the Yangzhou military formation.

"Ah...ah..."

There were bursts of roars one after another, and blood mist filled the area.

Batches of soldiers fell down forever.

As the saying goes, “Blessings come unparalleled, but misfortunes never come in one single way.”

At this moment, the Yuan army units began to climb the south bank one after another and gradually participated in the battle to siege and kill the Yangzhou army.
