Chapter 757
All this happened too quickly, so fast that the people around him could not react. The duel between the commanders of the Song and Wu army had already been decided. Sun Tu's gun had already hit Pang Wanchun's chest. As long as he stabbed harder, the backbone of the commander of the Wu army would be killed.
But compared to this result, the process of this result was the process of causing a greater impact on everyone. In the past, no one in the fighters they knew had used extraordinary means. Even Pang Wanchun himself thought that once he was defeated later, he could use his most powerful bow and arrow to injure the enemy, so as to take Sun Tu in one fell swoop. Even if he was not good, he could shoot Sun Tu with one arrow, thereby eliminating a great disaster for His Majesty and the others.
But who would have thought that Sun Tu, who had seen the open and honest, would have made a secret move at the beginning, and he also used a terrifying weapon that the Wu army had never seen before. The sudden violent sound and sudden fire were already scary enough, not to mention the large number of fragments that were shot out, almost covering Pang Wanchun and his horse. It can be said that Sun Tu was really unfair and extremely insidious.
As if he felt the resentment and unwillingness in Pang Wanchun's eyes, Sun Tu said again: "The army is never tired of deceitfulness, the two armies only seek victory in front of the formation, and use any means. Pang Wanchun, what do you want to say?"
"Hahaha...cough cough..." A smirk mixed with a few low coughs happened from Pang Wanchun's mouth. At the same time, there was a mouthful of blood. His body was trembling slightly: "I am not as skilled as a human being, I have nothing to say." After pausing, he looked at Sun Tu deeply: "You are indeed more terrible than I thought. It is not unfair to lose to you. But since I am a minister of Wu, I have no chance of defecting to the second master-!" At this point, he pressed his hand on the ground, used the last little strength, and quickly thrust his body up.
With a puff, Sun Tu couldn't even take back the spear. The other party had already hit his chest hard on the tip of the spear, allowing it to pass through his chest, but there was no pain on his face, only a relief and a calm smile, and even sighed softly in his mouth: "At least I'll catch you off guard..." As soon as he finished speaking, the person leaned forward, and the spear had already emerged from its back, and his head drooped, and there was no sound again.
This time it was indeed beyond Sun Tu's expectations. He had thought that the other party would struggle to death or attack him, but he did not expect that Pang Wanchun would die so simply. He was even surprised that he was so stupid that he was so stupid that he had no time to withdraw the gun just now. In this way, he could only watch Pang Wanchun die under his gun. Obviously, he had made all plans as early as when he was inviting the battle.
But some people could not accept such a result. The soldiers of Wu army surrounded not far away roared instantly: "Pang Shuai-!" They could not believe that the tall figure in their minds, as if they were as gods, died under the other party. He had just told everyone to act with a camera later, but now... In an instant, in addition to grief, the remaining dozens of people were even more confused and had no idea how to face such a result.
Sun Tu had come to his senses at this time. With a trembling hand, he pulled out his spear. Then he looked at the confused Wu army soldiers: "The main culprit has been killed. If you want to survive, you should abandon your weapons and surrender quickly. Otherwise, he, Pang Wanchun, will be your end!" As he said that, the gun in his hand had already pointed at it.
The other Song army soldiers also came back to their senses at this moment. While stepping forward, they also shouted: "Put down the weapons, kneel down and don't kill them!" They had formed a siege against these people, as if they had one order, they would kill them all on the spot.
The soldiers of the Wu army, who were already at the end of their journey, have lost their backbone again. At this moment, they have truly lost their last bit of fighting spirit. Someone started his head, and with a clang, the weapons in his hands were thrown to the ground, followed by a series of clangs, and then everyone obediently knelt down on the ground, and no longer dared to resist and struggle.
Then Sun Tu breathed a long breath and waved his hand: "If you tied it up, take it back to the city first before dealing with it!" As he said that, he looked at Pang Wanchun in front of him again. Perhaps this was one of the reasons why he committed suicide by hitting a gun, because he knew very well that only when he died, these subordinates would not sacrifice their lives to fight and fight once they appeared, so their lives would be saved. As for himself, he was just seeking benevolence and gaining benevolence.
Thinking of this, Sun Tu looked at the corpse with a complicated expression: "Take his body back and be buried with great pleasure." This is a respectable opponent, out of respect, he should be buried with a grand ceremony.
This matter also means that the war against Hangzhou over the past month has finally come to an end. Even though some people were finally allowed to escape in the chaos, when the capital was captured and the elite soldiers and main generals were killed and injured, the traitors who fled to the west were just surviving. It was only a matter of time before they could pacify them.
Soon, soldiers cheered: "General Sun is mighty, the Shandong army will win!"
These words immediately spread, and countless soldiers began to hold up their weapons and shouted in the rising Chaoyang: "General Sun is mighty, the Shandong army will win! General Sun is mighty, the Shandong army will win!" The atmosphere was extremely warm, and the shouts were straight through the sky.
Sun Tu did not stop everyone's cheers, but his eyes fell quietly to Hangzhou City ahead. Then the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and replaced by surprise. Several fires, accompanied by thick smoke, suddenly rose from the city. Seeing that the fire was spreading rapidly, it had already covered a large area. Then, a burst of exclamations rang out of the city.
The cheers of the Song army outside the city were quickly interrupted at this moment. Everyone looked at the change in the city in surprise, and guessed what was going on. Sun Tu quickly calmed down and immediately shouted: "Go into the city to put out the fire!"
The soldiers then reacted, hurriedly stepped and rushed back to Wulin Gate at full speed. After entering the city, the situation they saw became more and more terrifying. Taking the North City where the palace was located as the starting point, one-quarter of the Hangzhou City was surrounded by flames at this moment. This scene made the Song army who had just rushed back to the city feel a little dazed. At the same time, there was a huge problem in everyone's mind, how did this make such a big fire?
At this time, Hangzhou City was completely in chaos. The people who stayed in the city for various reasons were really panicked and ran around when facing the fire. The soldiers of the Song army had just entered the city and had little understanding of the various situations here, and they were also in a hurry. Even if someone organized a fire-fighting team and brought water, they didn't know where to rescue them.
Fires are constantly rising in residential houses, streets, shops, government offices... and because most of the buildings at this time are easily burned by wood, coupled with the dense buildings in the north and the bitter north wind today, the fire spreads very quickly. In the short time after Sun Tu and his friends rushed back to the city, the fire swallowed half of the alley and spread to the northwest.
"Put the fire quickly..."
"Help..."
The countless people in front of them were like frightened little beasts, and they didn't know what to do. They just shouted and ran desperately, but became a burden for the Song army soldiers who wanted to put out the fire, blocking half of their way forward. They were so tired that they could only change directions and poured buckets of water on the flames that soared into the sky, but the spread of the fire head was not reduced at all.
What's going on? Why does a good city catch fire? Especially the palace over there, it should be the most forbidden place in Hangzhou City, so why has it become the source of the fire?
A series of questions suddenly popped up in Sun Tu's mind, but he did not speak at this time. Because he could not find the person concerned to ask the reason for the relationship for a while, he also knew that now was not the time to pursue the whole story. What he could do now was to urgently mobilize troops to put out the fire!
"Tell me my order that all the soldiers and horses in the city should first protect the people from withdrawing from Hangzhou!" Sun Tu shouted loudly: "Also, let people set fire to the streets and alleys where the fire was burning to isolate the room for it to spread. We must not let the fire spread to the east and west cities."
At this time, Sun Tu finally showed the good spirit of a general who should be calm in the face of danger and shouted loudly.
