The moment the rocket penetrates the ground and comes into contact with kerosene.
The fire shot up into the sky and spread in all directions at an extremely exaggerated speed.
At this moment, many soldiers fell into the sea of fire before they could react.
The tents were lit one after another...
The original laughter turned into wails at this moment.
"There's a fire coming from the sky, everyone, hurry up and put out the fire!"
"Quickly put out the fire!"
"Wake up, stop sleeping, your life will be lost if you continue to sleep!!"
"Quickly...notify the general!"
In the military camp, fires were everywhere, and screams could be heard endlessly.
The news quickly spread to the main camp. The Chu generals headed by Geng Chunqiu were still immersed in the joy of victory. They believed that the Wu Dynasty army would be defeated without any attack at most in three days.
Each one of them can be said to have made good plans.
In addition to being proud, they were panicked and screamed incessantly, resounding from all directions and reaching their ears.
All the spirits were shaken, this... what is going on?
Geng Chunqiu changed his face, "Why is it suddenly so noisy outside?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a commander with wounds all over his body and his face burned to a disgrace shivered: "General...general, strange fire suddenly fell from the sky and set...the military camp on fire..."
After he said these words, as if he had exhausted all his strength, he vomited blood and died on the spot.
fell to the ground.
"What?" Geng Chunqiu's heart was shocked as if he had been struck by lightning. How could there be sky fire? "Sky fire?"
He couldn't even imagine it.
Immediately, he led the generals out of the camp. After seeing the scene not far away, the boss stared at him and shouted on the spot, "Fuck...how could this happen?"
Looking up, above the night, there are still fires falling from the sky.
This is……
Xu Mingdong and Gongsun Hong in the crowd knew very well about the fire in the sky, but they did not dare to say it out loud.
He was afraid that Geng Chunqiu would settle the score with him.
Geng Chunqiu roared angrily and shouted: "Quickly put out the fire, we must keep the food and grass!"
"quick……"
"It's...general!"
As a result, the entire military camp went into chaos and began to put out the fire.
Some soldiers even sacrificed their lives to protect food and grass.
Geng Chunqiu stood still, clenching his hands, staring dimly into the sky. In his opinion, perhaps it was not a sky fire at all, but an attack by the Wu Dynasty army.
But then again, the Wu Chao army was all humans and not gods, so how could they fly into the sky?
After a while, after he saw the rockets piercing the ground, he determined that it was the Wu Chao Army's action.
Geng Chunqiu gathered some people on the spot to shoot arrows. After a while, the arrows shot into the air, which blocked part of the rocket rain from falling from the sky. At the same time, it also shot through the relatively low-flying hot air balloon, causing a big hole in the layer of cloth.
At that moment, the hot air balloon swayed instantly and descended at an exaggerated speed...
All this was seen in the eyes of Geng Chunqiu and others, and they started shooting on the spot.
Rows of arrows flew into the sky.
Within a short time, many hot air balloons were shot down, and some even burned directly in the air.
The soldiers of the Wu Dynasty Army in the sky are all death squads, so they were prepared to die the moment they took off. Each one of them was not afraid of death and faced it head on...
Even now, I still think about having someone on my back before I die!
Even if the Chu army shot down the death squads of the Wu Chao army from the sky, they could still make up for their losses.
A small river became the life-saving straw for their army.
One by one, they are all trying to make amends crazily...
Geng Chunqiu also took the lead and joined the team. As for the previous happiness, it was now gone and disappeared completely.
At the same time, on the Nanjing city tower, Shi Gandang and Lei Yi looked far into the distance. That was the direction where the Chu army was stationed. The fire now dyed half of the sky red.
Lei Yi was a little excited when he saw this, "It looks like our people succeeded!"
Shi Gandang also sighed, "It's great if we succeed! If we succeed, we can speed up the pace of victory! If they succeed, their sacrifices will not be in vain!"
"They are all warriors of the Wu Dynasty!"
"Yes..." Lei Yi nodded, his eyes bright, "I will definitely not let their death be in vain!"
Then, he asked again, "General, if we send out a cavalry now, will it be more able to defeat the Chu army?"
Shi Gandang said solemnly: "Theoretically, this is the case, but we don't have enough troops, so we should fight slowly and steadily!"
Lei Yi felt it made sense, "That's right... with this battle, the Chu army will definitely be weakened, and they won't dare to challenge it anymore!"
"Hopefully!"
…
This side of the Dachu military camp.
The entire army was mobilized to completely control the fire and put it out at dawn.
At this time, the camp area where the Dachu Army Camp was located was in such a mess that it was almost impossible to look straight at it.
Almost everyone is disgraced and unable to look...
Geng Chunqiu sat on the ground, his chest heaving, feeling tired and angry. Wu Bianjun did not catch a single person, but they suffered heavy casualties, and each one was more embarrassed than the last.
"Depend on……"
Since Geng Chunqiu became famous, he has never suffered such a defeat.
Thousands of words turned into this one word.
Only now did he finally realize that from the moment he burned grain and grass, he had fallen into the trap of Shi Gandang and others.
Let them get carried away and forget everything, and then attack again. When people are unprepared, once they are attacked, they will definitely be killed in one blow and die miserably... just like the current state of the Chu army!
Geng Chunqiu looked around, his heart hurting like a knife, and said word by word: "Count the number of casualties immediately!"
Ying Tingguang had already started counting, but with a dark face, he did not dare to report directly, "General... General, the statistics are ready!"
Geng Chunqiu shouted, "Stop hesitating, just say it!"
Ying Tingguang lowered his head and said: "Twenty thousand people died, and a total of thirty thousand people were seriously and lightly injured!"
At this number, Geng Chunqiu was so angry that he grabbed a knife from the ground and chopped it on the tree. Boom boom boom... Every time he struck, it seemed that he had exhausted all his strength.
"Ahh..."
"No one saw it, 20,000 people died and 30,000 people were injured!"
Boom boom boom…
Geng Chunqiu waved his sword to vent his anger.
The generals present did not dare to step forward and retreated.
It wasn't until Geng Chunqiu got tired of slashing that he stopped, fell to the ground, and threw the broken knife aside.
The whole person was like a deflated balloon, mumbling to himself without knowing what he was saying.
Qu Baichuan, the deputy general next to Geng Chunqiu and his good brother through life and death, slowly knelt down and comforted him softly: "General, victory or defeat is a matter of military strategists. There is no permanent victorious general on the battlefield. What we have to do now is
What we need to do is to regroup and let the Wu Dynasty army pay with blood!"
"General..."
At this time, Ying Tingguang's face was full of anger, "General, I'm going to attack Nanjing City right now!"
