Zuo Rong listened and nodded. He also knew that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, so he kept urging the soldiers to leave quickly. After listening to Sima's words, he leaned over and gave the order to the guards: "Go to the front and tell them to speed up the pace." The guards hurriedly ran away.
After a while, the troops obviously speeded up.
Zuo Rong finally breathed a sigh of relief. As soon as the army came out of the canyon, everything in Liyang City would be in his arms. There was not even a general who knew how to fight in Liyang City, similar to Zaozhuan.
Characters were not in his eyes at all. Cao Zhi, let alone Cao Zhi, in Zuo Rong's eyes, a descendant of a noble family like Cao Zhi was just a person in name only.
Just when Zuo Rong was secretly feeling proud, suddenly there were three loud noises like "collapse-collapse-collapse" at the two valley entrances at the front and rear, and then three fireballs sprang out, accompanied by a burst of black smoke.
The large group of people panicked and intuitively felt the mountain shake. Before they could react, after the loud noises on the mountain passes at both ends, everyone's eyes were drawn to the top of the valley. They saw pieces of objects falling vertically from above. At first, they were just
The object that was only the diameter of a bowl turned into a huge rock in an instant, whizzing down with strong wind. The people below did not have time to react, and they were pressed alive below with a popping sound, and jets of water were sprayed out.
Plasma. These soldiers who were smashed to death did not even have time to scream in agony before they suffered misfortune. Everything happened too fast.
It was like this at the front and rear entrances of the valley. The explosives exploded several rocks, carrying thick snow, gravel and other objects, and they fell into the canyon one after another. Many people and animals were killed and injured, and the troops in the canyon were immediately in chaos.
He got up, crying for his father and mother with blood on his face, threw away his torch and his weapon, and turned around to run away. He was so panicked that he didn’t know which direction to turn to avoid the gravel, and suddenly the small canyon became overcrowded. He was in the canyon.
Zuo Rong, who was in the middle section, saw a commotion in the front team and shouted to the left and right: "What's going on?" No one answered him. Zuo Rong wanted to run to the front to see the situation but couldn't squeeze through.
The new disciple of the water pirate who was recruited by Zuo Rong has become a frightened bird. He was originally a bandit and water pirate. He shouted out slanderous words in the fright. He immediately raised his arms and shouted: "The water is coming, let's work together shoulder to shoulder."
!”
"It's your fault!" Zuo Rong swung his hands with a big mouth. Although Zuo Rong's career was as a water pirate, this did not prevent him from understanding the basic principles of marching. If it were daytime, he would want to escape now.
Maybe it's feasible. It's night now. As long as the soldiers are ordered to flee, the soldiers can't find where the commander is. They rush forward and trample countless people to death. It's estimated that there will still be hundreds left by the time dawn comes.
He is a good person, but now he must not escape anymore, he can only find out the situation first.
Zuo Rong had never seen the power of gunpowder, but he had heard of the saying of "sky fire (the light caused by lightning hitting trees, etc.)", but there was no thunder that day, so the sky fire came. With luck in mind, Zuo Rong had no time.
Think too much, the troops are in urgent need of orders.
The monument generals in the front team, Sima and Zuo Rong in the middle could only try their best to stop the soldiers and horses. Some of the rumbling stones behind them also fell. At this time, most of the soldiers were far away from the valley mouths on both sides, so they did not cause too many casualties.
, but it was obvious that more rocks fell from the valley entrance in front where there were two loud noises, and it rumbled for a long time before stopping.
After some hard work, Zuo Rong and others finally controlled the panicked soldiers. Sima wondered whether he had been ambushed, and Zuo Rong said: "No, there are no traces of people in the valleys on both sides of the ambush. Send someone to check at the entrance of the valley immediately."
After a while, a soldier hurriedly came to reply: "Captain Qi, for some reason, a lot of boulders rolled down at the entrance of the valley ahead, blocking our team in the mouth of the gorge."
Zuo Rong said in astonishment: "The exit was blocked by so many boulders. Isn't that how bad luck is? What's behind?"
"It's okay in the back. Some rocks rolled down, but the entrance was not blocked." The soldier continued to answer.
"Send the order, the front team changes to the rear team, withdraw..." Before Zuo Rong finished speaking, he saw a dazzling firework rising into the sky from the direction of the valley mouth. Sima next to him said in surprise: "No, I'm afraid it's not the case.
Tianhuo was the result of other people’s calculations.”
Before he finished speaking, countless giant logs and rolling stones roared down from the cliff, hitting countless sparks on the stone walls on both sides, and then smashed hard to the bottom of the valley. Many people were hit with broken bones and tendons, and many more were injured.
He was killed directly. A stone as big as a horse's head fell directly on the head of a soldier. With a loud noise that shook the earth, the soldier's whole head was like a broken egg, and juice was everywhere.
It splashed, and then scattered on the companion. At this time, the ground shook violently, and the companion immediately froze and fainted. The rolling wood and stone took a cup of tea, and then slowly stopped.
Zuo Rong, who was leaning against the wall, saw that the frequency of falling stones had slowed down, and he rushed out and shouted hysterically: "Retreat, retreat immediately! Exit from the entrance and gather with the troops outside the valley." He knew that he must have been ambushed.
Fortunately, Zhou Xin and most of the follow-up troops are still outside the valley. As long as he regroups with the follow-up troops outside the valley, he still has a glimmer of hope. Chen Wen cannot send too many troops to ambush, and this gorge is very dangerous.
It's long. As long as you get out as soon as possible, the whole army will not be wiped out.
The soldiers at the bottom of the valley were in a mess, but after hearing the order, most of them still consciously rushed towards the entrance of the valley they had just entered. In the field, countless torches appeared on the cliffs on both sides, and as someone shouted loudly,
Hundreds of torches were thrown down, and then a large number of feather arrows were shot down. Whoosh... Immediately many people fell to the ground after being hit by arrows, and screams followed. Sima directed the bows and arrows.
You can use your hands to counterattack, but your side needs to shoot from below, and its power is more than twice as powerful as the enemy above.
Now the general behind the large army saw this situation and hurriedly shouted: "Extinguish all the torches, don't let the enemy see clearly the situation at the bottom of the valley!" The panic-stricken Danyang soldiers hurriedly began to extinguish the torches.
It was a lot darker. This move was really clever, and there were immediately fewer arrows falling. Just when they were secretly rejoicing, countless bouncing fireballs were thrown all over the valley, and sparks fell from the sky. It turned out that there were a lot of them covered with fire.
The takraw balls filled with vegetable oil were ignited and pushed down the valley. Although the valley bottom was deep and there were few trees and other flammable materials, once the dead branches and leaves scattered at the valley bottom burned, thick smoke immediately rose up, making people choke and shed tears.
, nothing could be seen clearly. Some people were directly burned, with their bodies covered in flames, screaming heart-breakingly and running around. No one dared to rush out to save them, and those who saved them would not only be panicked
The panicked Pyroman was covered in sparks, and what was even more frightening was that as soon as he got close to these fireballs, the enemy's cold arrows would fly straight towards him.
Zuo Rong knew that after there was fire at the bottom of the valley, the enemy's arrows would become more dense. He could no longer care about the team behind him. Under the protection of his own soldiers, he fought his way through his own team and rushed towards the entrance of the valley.
Go. When he rushed out for more than a mile, he only saw Sima Zheng rushing back. After seeing Zuo Rong, he shouted with a distorted face: "Captain Zuo, the entrance is also blocked by rocks.
"
Zuo Rong's heart skipped a beat, "Yes! The entrance to the valley could have been blocked by the rolling logs and rocks just now." Zeo Rong looked at the situation at the bottom of the valley in despair, and couldn't help but lament in his heart: "Is it possible that I, Zao Rong, will be buried in this place?
Is it here?" He couldn't help but yelled: "Chen Wen, you are such a killer, I really want to peel off his skin and eat his flesh! If you want to suffocate me to death, just go ahead and dream about it! Brothers, fight
Come on, the archers will fight back."
