Chapter 723: Iron face reappears

"Don't retreat, put out the fire, and give me the shortest time to reopen the damn flame at all costs. Otherwise, all the people, regardless of their official position, will be engaged in military law, and will be punished for me..."

The cruel order was spit out from the mouth of Prince Lan Gao, the head coach, as the head coach, causing the first generals to participate in the first batch of siege to complain secretly. The fire in front of him was obviously not extinguished by human power in a short time. The head coach Lan Gao said so ruthlessly that everyone asked everyone to put out the fire, which was simply changing directions to ask their soldiers to die.

Judging from the burning degree of the flame, God knows how many lives it needs to be filled in to put out. Ask me, you already know how to do things that are almost impossible to complete without asking a group of generals to curse in their hearts and scold the mother of the head coach Prince Lan Gao, who does not regard the lives of soldiers as a detestable turtle son.

However, facing Lan Gao's order, the generals who knew the prince's temper and nature were deeply aware of what kind of person he was, although their faces changed drastically, they did not dare to say even the word "no" from their mouths.

Everyone knew very well what would happen if they said the word "no".

Therefore, at this moment, the generals could only kill their teeth and swallow their stomachs, and gritted their teeth and issued this cruel order to the troops under their jurisdiction.

For a moment, countless Kaoqi soldiers who were forced to retreat were rushed up against the flames again, and attacked the fire in front of them in various ways that they could do so at present.

There was no water or any preparation. Even though the soldiers were large in number, they could not do anything about the raging fire in front of them for a moment. Instead, during the process of putting out the fire, some of the soldiers who put out the fire were swallowed up by the fire in front of them, causing heavy casualties.

In desperation, many soldiers were forced to come up with some effective fire extinguishing methods, using the giant sign in their hands as utensils for soil support, and then using the long sword in their hands as digging tools to dig mud on the spot to extinguish the fire.

It is undeniable that this method of extinguishing fire in the soil is still very effective in the absence of water. As more and more soldiers wake up and forget to execute, the fire in front of the soldiers was immediately controlled and there was a great momentum of being extinguished.

When seeing such a scene, the Kaoqi soldiers who were burned to the point where they almost evaporated the water in their bodies would not have been known to work harder. Otherwise, they would not have died on the way to attack the city, but instead died in the fire in front of them, which would have made anyone feel careless.

In the hearts of the soldiers, although it was dangerous to rush up to attack the city, at least there was still a chance to survive and make contributions.

However, if the fire in front of me cannot be extinguished, I will inevitably die in this man-devouring flame, and even a more complete corpse will not be left behind.

Therefore, inspired by this mentality, all the Kaoqi soldiers who participated in the fire-fighting operation fought bravely, and they all tried their best to dig the land under their feet with their weapons, and then threw the dig into the flames that seemed to have been suppressed.

For a moment, the entire battlefield was close to the Kaoqi camp, and dust filled the sky. The rising smoke and dust even overwhelmed the flames caused by the forbidden spell, making it seem from a distance that it was a terrible sandstorm that could kill people.

Seeing this kind of effective action of extinguishing fires, the generals all secretly let go of some fearful hearts and breathed a sigh of relief.

You know, if the orders of the head coach and prince in front of him cannot be fulfilled, even the guy who is usually highly appreciated by His Highness will definitely end up with a tragic ending with his body and head.

Therefore, after seeing the fire being controlled and gradually weakened with the desperate efforts of countless soldiers, these generals breathed a sigh of relief and felt their heads growing firmly on their necks again.

The scene of tens of thousands of people joining forces to lift the soil is indeed spectacular and grand, and even the largest modern construction project cannot exceed its right.

However, it is obvious that the flames caused by the Brahma Curse are not so easy to extinguish. Although the dust raised by tens of thousands of people in the field did weaken some of the fire, the group of soldiers who put out the fire eventually encountered trouble when the fire was extinguished to a critical moment.

Amid the dust and sand flying all over the sky, the flame that had already begun to be suppressed suddenly rushed again without any warning, and almost instantly swallowed a large area of ​​fire-fighting soldiers with thousands of people. These fire-fighting soldiers with thousands of people did not react to the cruel fact that their lives were about to end until the fire and their bodies were in a moment.

This horrifying scene almost shocked the senior generals of Kaoqi, including Lan Gao, in an instant, and all of them changed their color without exception.

As if there were some great losses, even Lan Gao, who had already been prepared for sacrifice, could not help but be shocked to curse. No one could have thought that the fire, which had been controlled, would suddenly turn back and become more vigorous.

Although the loss is only a drop in the bucket for a million, the loss of thousands of people in a siege battle is a figure.

You should know that even in the fierce battle yesterday, the two sides of the war combined only lost 10,000 people. However, in today's situation where a forbidden curse was killed 20,000 at the beginning of the war, and then thousands were burned to death by fire, it can almost be regarded as a crushing defeat.

Of course, before the terrifying number of millions of reinforcements, such war losses were not enough to shake the foundation of the entire Kaaoqi army. They had enough capital to squander and squander the huge number of troops in their hands until they achieved their goals.

However, as for the current situation, Prince Lan Gao, as the commander of the army, obviously did not have the calmness of sitting firmly at the Gouyutai. When he saw the sudden counterattack of the fire, Lan Gao was immediately shocked and jumped up from the observation deck located in the Central Military Office.

At this moment, Lan Gao didn't care about the prince's demeanor, and almost howled wildly with a ferocious face. He only knew that he would order the people below to put out the fire. Apart from that, he would no longer know what to do.

Seeing His Highness the Prince furious under his nose, the generals immediately became silent. No one dared to make a sound, fearing that the disaster would be drawn to him.

Among these generals who were silent and did not even dare to make loud farts, there was only a tall figure. He stood in the corner with a very dissatisfaction and snorted disdain, as if he was very disgusted by Lan Gao's actions, and at the same time he was not afraid that Lan Gao would burn his anger on his head.

"brush……"

For a moment, almost everyone turned their eyes to this figure who dared to snort coldly in front of Lan Gao, the future emperor. Even Lan Gao himself turned his eyes wildly, as if he was about to eat people.

However, unlike the anger expressed in his eyes, Lan Gao's angry eyes when he looked at this figure clearly had a look of fear that was so strong that it could hardly be dissolved, as if he was very tempted by this person's identity.

This point was just from Lan Gao's cold snorkeling that time, he didn't ask anyone to pull the guy who dared to mock him out and dismember him, and the fearful look of a group of generals looking at this person.

Obviously, this guy who has always been hiding in the corner from the beginning is not something that Lan Gao can afford now.

So, even if Lan Gao is angry now, he can only choose to endure it.

"Hisser Duke, are you so happy to see our soldiers being killed by the enemy? You need to sneer when I give orders!Hisser Duke, don't forget that you are the Duke of Kaochi, not the Duke of China. In the early years, if it weren't for our Kaochi royal family, you might have died on the roadside to feed wild dogs, so how could you have the glorious identity you are today. So, I think, Duke, you should give some effort to Kaochi at the moment in front of you. Humph, even if you don't give your efforts, you shouldn't mock the other side!"

With the urge to ask someone to rush up and pull him down and chop him down, Lan Gao's gloomy face almost spit out these words in a very indifferent way to express his inner dissatisfaction. It made the generals all over his body sweat coldly.

It is obvious that although Lan Gao was a little afraid of this guy who dared to despise him, he was not as afraid as others. It seemed that he was sure that the guy hiding in the corner in front of him would not dare to hurt him.

Otherwise, with Lan Gao's character, who is a coward who is slutty when he sees a low hand and weak when he sees a strong man, how dare he speak like this to this guy? I'm afraid that the other party's cold snorkeling just now would scare Lan Gao's soul to scatter.

It was precisely under the unceremonious attitude of Emperor Lan that the tall figure hiding in the corner was not angry, and still hid his body in the shadow in the corner, so that everyone including Lan Gao could not see his whole picture. They could only vaguely see him wearing a thick black armor that was strange and exaggerated, and said coldly in a mechanically-like voice that was so cold that he almost had no feelings: "Your Highness, first of all, I want to make it clear that the first person who saved me was the eldest prince, not your Kaaoqi royal family, so I owe the kindness of only the eldest prince, which has nothing to do with your royal family. Humph, if it weren't for the sake of the eldest prince over the years, I would fight for you in the face of the eldest prince,

Is it that expanding the territory of Kaochi to this level now? Let me tell you, in fact, I don’t care about the so-called bullshit title of the Iron-Faced Duke. All I think is to quickly restore the kindness I owe to the eldest prince, that’s all. Moreover, I have almost paid off most of the love, just this last time. When I wait to send you back to the capital safely, your father’s hand will pay off the kindness I owe to the eldest prince. As for how many people died here today, what does it have to do with me! After all, I have only been instructed by the eldest prince and His Majesty the Emperor to be responsible for protecting your safety. I have not had any obligation to care about things other than your personal safety. Do you understand? Your Highness!"

The emperor who directly threatened the prince, the future emperor of the empire, came to ask the crowd of people present at the end. Even though they agreed with the words of the Iron-Faced Duke in their hearts, they did not dare to show it on their faces. They just hung their heads lowered, and didn't even dare to look at the two people who were tensely nervous.

You know, if Duke Qu just said that he wanted to lose his head, he would not be afraid of his strong strength, but everyone present was extremely afraid. God knew whether he would be affected by Chi Yu. Afterwards, Prince Lan Gao, who lost face, was killed and silenced.

Thinking of this, the more people present thought about it, the more likely they were. When they lowered their heads, the cold sweat had already soaked the armor of the generals, causing the souls to scatter.

On the other hand, Lan Gao looked directly at Qu Jianhong in the shadow and couldn't speak. Perhaps he was afraid that Duke Qu had just happened, for fear that he would really be unfavorable to him.

However, the prince is a prince after all, and after all, he still has to maintain his dignity in front of the generals. So, he turned around and stopped looking at Qu Jianhong in the shadows. He roared at the generals beside him: "Come on, ask the two saints to take action and put out the fire. The empire has paid such a great price. Is it just for them to come to travel? And you, you all poke me here for something, and you are going down to the front line to command the battle. Do you really think that among the civil siege of millions of troops, can anyone come to be unfavorable to Your Highness? Get out of here, Your Highness does not need protection!"

He dared not violate what Qu Jianhong said just now, but Lan Gao took advantage of the opportunity of scolding everyone around him to fight back against Duke Qu. He just got out of the way and directly included Duke Qu, the person who was responsible for protecting him. The most wonderful thing is that Duke Qu himself could not take the initiative to bump into and admit it. This made Lan Gao feel a little relieved in his heart.

However, just when Lan Gao's divine eyes cursed Duke Qu in his heart that he would not die well, a cold shout from the cold wind and ice snow on the icy snow source came out of a position beside Lan Gao, and was shocked and exploded in the small space on the observation deck.
