The arrows shot out like locusts, and their powerful force was enough to hurt the Tibetan people hiding behind even after penetrating the tiles.
A brick was shattered, and the fragments flew out with great force, scratching Zhuo Da's face. Blood flowed down quickly, and the smell of blood stimulated the man on the plateau. He shouted and threw the short spear in his hand.
The short spear that struck with hatred was like a fang, but it was hit by a long card between the lightning and flint. The force was so strong that it even penetrated the long card and pierced the armor of the soldiers.
This simple piece of iron armor could not block the power of the short spear. The soldiers of the Huaiyuan Army fell to the ground screaming, while Guan Wanshan on the side was furious, holding up his shield and rushed forward, but was held back by the Iron Bull:
"This place is wide open, there must be an ambush in the courtyard, don't rush in rashly!"
Guan Wanshan stared and said: "Is it just that we can't attack for so long?!"
Tieniu waved his hand and said: "Of course not. I know that your Huaiyuan Army is eager to perform meritorious service, but the Marquis said that he gave us so many good things in order not to harm the sergeants. The lives of our brothers are more important than anything else.
Armor, weapons, and ordnance are all dead objects, and they can be rebuilt if they are damaged, but when a person dies, he is dead, and nothing is left!"
Tieniu's words brought Guan Wanshan back to his senses. He looked at the courtyard in front of him and frowned: "What are your plans?"
"Do you know what my Marquis liked to do most when he was in Huanzhou?"
Guan Wanshan asked curiously: "What?"
"Use fire!"
"Are you planning to set fire to this house, and the people inside it too?!"
The reason why Guan Wanshan was so surprised was that there were many ways to exterminate the Tubo people. Although the fire attack was good, it was a pity that such a huge house would be burned down, and the wealth inside would also be doomed.
Unexpectedly, Tieniu said: "Don't feel bad. The remaining things burned here are also valuable. Gold and silver are not afraid of burning. As for other things, we don't care about them!"
Guan Wanshan knew that the Xi Lie Army was backed by the Puhui Company, and it was natural for him to be rich and wealthy, but he was still reluctant to part with it. He would rather trade the lives of the soldiers of the Huaiyuan Army than burn down the other properties in the house.
I have no choice but to be poor. Compared to the Xi Lie Army, the Huaiyuan Army has 5,000 mouths waiting for food...
Although Guan Wanshan didn't say anything, Tieniu knew what he was thinking. He took a deep breath and patted his shoulder and said: "I know your thoughts, but you can no longer fight this battle according to the previous method. Hou
I said to recruit the Huaiyuan Army under my command, so naturally I will not break my promise!"
Guan Wanshan nodded: "Then burn down the Qingtang Liquor Shop. These Tubo people have done a lot of evil in Liangzhou City. Now is the time to pay off the debt!"
Tieniu laughed loudly: "Come here, set up a water dragon, burn this courtyard for me, and roast these Tubo bird people!"
The soldiers of the Western Lie Army rolled out several small wooden box trucks. The body was only half a person tall, with pressure bars attached to the sides. It was unknown what was inside.
The three soldiers of the Western Lie Army pressed the lever up and down hard, and soon a line of turbid oil with a pungent smell shot out. However, this was just the beginning.
After the oil line was shot out, it was immediately ignited by a torch not far from the front. The Huaiyuan Army officers were surprised to find that the flames only burned in the direction of the injection and did not burn back.
The raging fire was like a fire dragon under the twists and turns of the soldiers of the Western Lie Army, rushing towards the courtyard with great force, scaring the Tibetan people to flee, and also ignited the wooden structure in the corridor.
The Huaiyuan Army watched in stunned silence as the Tibetan soldiers who were burned into flames fell from the roof. Even if they fell to the ground and rolled around desperately, they could not extinguish the flames around them.
Not only that, wherever the fire dragon goes, there is a sea of burning fire. Even the walls that cannot be ignited are constantly burning. When the outer skin falls off, the yellow mud and grass stalks inside the wall can also be ignited.
The entire courtyard began to be engulfed in flames. The Tubo people quickly retreated, but where could they retreat?
Zhuo Da looked at everything in front of him in shock. He did not expect that the powerful Tubo warriors were so vulnerable to the Song army. The fire-spitting instrument was something he had never heard of or seen before. Wherever the fire snake went, it was scorched earth.
, appalling!
Under the cover of the flames, the Xilie Army and the Huaiyuan Army cooperated with each other and calmly killed the Tubo people who dared to resist. At this time, several sergeants with loud voices began to yell: "We will not kill those who surrender their weapons! Resistance will lead to death!"
The Tubo people, whose fighting spirit had been defeated, began to hesitate, and the angry Zhuo Da also knew that he had no chance of winning if this continued.
However, you may be able to survive by surrendering, but the suffering you will suffer is unknown. Zhuo Da yelled: "This is a soft plan of the Song people, brothers, please don't believe it!"
The enemy's words are never as trustworthy as those of their own people. The Tubo people finally chose to fight to the death with Zhuo Da. They concentrated in the middle courtyard, occupied a high attic, and kept shooting at the approaching Song army with bows and arrows.
Tieniu was not surprised. Ye An had told him before setting off that the Tubo people would never sit still and wait to be killed, but what he had to do was to do everything possible to reduce the casualties of the Song army and kill more Tubo people.
This raid was to surround the Tubo people. The biggest advantage of catching a turtle in a urn is that the enemy has nowhere to escape and there is no need to panic. Ye An's goal is very simple, to reduce the casualties of the Song army as much as possible and annihilate the Tubo people as much as possible.
Both Guan Wanshan and Tieniu knew that the Tibetans would never surrender, so they resorted to the simplest method and burned them to the ground.
The Tibetan people's courtyard burned crazily in flames. It was windy in the northwest, and the Tubo people could not put it out no matter how hard they tried. The wind helped the fire, and the fire took advantage of the wind. The fire burned quickly and spread to the entire inner courtyard.
Zhuo Da finally led the Tubo people to break through. This was the worst decision he had ever made. In Guan Wanshan's view, he should have led the Tubo people to break out from the beginning of the flames. There might still be a chance at that time, but
Now…………
The Huaiyuan Army had never fought such a simple and quick battle. The Tubo people's breakout was blocked. The huge long cards withstood the long knives in their hands, while the spears and crossbows easily harvested the lives of the Tubo people through the gaps.
Even the Song army could feel the powerlessness and despair of the Tubo people, but on the battlefield it was just you and me, without any mercy, unless you also wanted to become a corpse on the ground.
Zhuo Da led his most elite men to break out, but faced with the forest of spears, he had nowhere to escape. Several Tubo warriors sacrificed their lives to open a passage for him, and even though their bodies were pierced by spears, they still maintained their ability to slash.
action.
He was originally the leader of Tubo and a powerful figure in Liangzhou City, but now he is running away like a bereaved dog.
Using his familiarity with the courtyard, Zhuo Da quickly shuttled through the courtyard, sneaked into the pond along the shadow of the rockery, and leaned on the duckweed in the pond to breathe a breath of air.
The fire was raging all around, and the Tibetan people's years of operation in Liangzhou Prefecture were burned down.
Zhuo Da's heart was bleeding, and the surrounding fire was reflected in his pupils, like the angry flames in his heart. At this time, he just wanted to survive and return to Qingtang for help. He wanted revenge: "Pei Chengwen, Ye
Peace! One day I will eat its flesh and sleep on its skin!"
