Chapter 68 I'm Going to Die, Farewell
In this dim sky, the bonfire of the soldiers of Yan Kingdom is like stars scattered on the ground. Especially from a distance, you can enjoy the sparks dozens of miles in front and behind. The sparks on the ground and the stars in the sky are in a different way. However, Zhao Kuo was not in the mood to enjoy such a peerless beauty again. He was holding a torch in his hand, which was made by Zhao Fu for him.
Zhao Kuo saw that Zhao Fu picked out some sticky things from the trees, evenly smeared on the stick, put them in the bonfire, and suddenly the flames burst out. According to Zhao Fu, as long as it was not encountered strong wind, such a fire would not be easily extinguished. Therefore, Zhao Kuo asked many knights to prepare many wooden sticks that applied the magical thing like this. Zhao Kuo led the knights to travel back and forth here, making them familiar with the way to retreat after the matter was completed.
Including the final gathering point, every retreat route, he asked the knights to go over and over again to get familiar with it.
Now, everything is ready. Zhao Kuo looked at the Yan people's frame in the distance, and his whole body trembled for a moment before stopping shaking. Zhao Kuo closed his eyes: Mother, Ge, Xing, Di, Li Mu... All my loves, all my friends, and the elders who have helped me, live well. I am going to set off and farewell forever.
Zhao Kuo suddenly opened his eyes and the horse galloped towards the distance. Zhao Kuo felt the torch in his hand swaying violently, so he pulled the reins and slowed down the speed of the horse. The horse walked casually towards the distance as if it were spread. This destroyed the atmosphere of death. Hundreds of knights followed Zhao Kuo and rushed towards the enemy's direction firmly.
Li Fu arranged a lot of sentry posts, but these sentry posts were sitting back to back, tilting their mouths, and sleeping loudly. In order to resist the beasts and the cold wind, the soldiers escorted the grain even placed the grain carts on the periphery and formed a circle, resting in the barrier formed by these carts. Zhao Kuo was getting closer and closer to the enemy, and the crisp sound of horse hooves became increasingly unconcealed. Zhao Kuo could feel his violent heartbeat, almost jumping out of his chest!
"Didn't you check it? All is OK!" Hearing the sound of horse hooves, the silencer awakened, he said sleepyly. He thought it was his knight who came here to patrol, complaining and swearing. He slowly opened his eyes. At that moment, his face was pale and could not speak. Before he could tell the enemy attack, Zhao Kuo waved the reins and rushed over. Zhao Kuo slashed the short sword in his hand at the soldier. With a "puff" sound, the soldier screamed and fell to the ground!
"Enemy attack!!!"
"kill!!"
At that moment, the entire Yan people's camp was in an uproar, and all kinds of messy orders appeared. Some soldiers cried in horror, some soldiers picked up weapons, and some soldiers were fighting with their own people, which was particularly chaotic. Zhao Kuo's eyes were just staring at a car not far away. He threw the torch in his hand on the food and grass, and threw the wine bag at his waist out.
However, the flames he was expecting suddenly raised did not appear. Not only did the wine bag not play a role in ignition, but it almost extinguished the torch. Zhao Kuo was shocked, but he had no time to think about it anymore. At that moment, the soldiers of the Yan people rushed over. Zhao Kuo quickly took out the wooden stick from his waist and threw it near the original torch again. Then a flame suddenly burst out!
Hundreds of knights threw the torch at the grain cart. At that moment, the sea of fire suddenly rose, and wine was not a good ignition material, but the grain and grass used by the army, even the baskets and wood, were the best flammable materials. The flames rose everywhere and quickly jumped to half a person's height, which made the soldiers of Yan State even more panicked. However, the Yan State's front was very long, and the Yan soldiers in this section of the rear army that escorted the grain and grass were in chaos, while the Yan people from other places hurriedly sent support!
Zhao Kuo faced the soldiers who rushed from all directions. The Yan people's front army was in the west and the rear army was in the east. Zhao Kuo led the army to attack the food trucks the most west. At this moment, Zhao Kuo led the knights to charge again towards the east. This was also what Zhao Kuo had thought about, because the car was too scattered and could only burn them all the way. The Yan people's cavalry mostly gathered in the central army, that is, in the west position. If you go from east to west, the chance of directly encountering the Yan people's cavalry would be greatly improved.
The Yan people's rear army was already a mess. The generals were not even wearing armor and ran out of the camp and hurriedly commanded the army. However, there were not many people they could command, and more people were still fleeing. The generals killed several deserters in a row, but they could not control them. The ones who were carrying the food and grass were not originally elite, so how could they withstand night attacks? The most troublesome one was a elite force who specially arranged to protect the food and grass.
Most of the elite soldiers of the Yan Kingdom were warriors who had originally protected the King of Yan. They were the first to react and fight with Zhao Kuo. Zhao Kuo rode his horse without carts, and there were two wooden sticks left on his waist. There were many food and grass carts. The knights also realized that the fire was too concentrated just now, so they used the Yan people's bonfire to light the torch, and then threw it to the food and grass carts. The Yan people rushed up frantically, trying to put out the flames!
The horse galloped and suddenly hit a Yan soldiers blocking the road. The soldiers flew out and hit the carriage behind them. They immediately died. The knights shouted, and the short swords in their hands kept slashing and stabbing around. The Yan soldiers kept falling down. However, when they started counterattacking with their spears, the knights began to suffer huge casualties. Three or four soldiers gathered together and stabbed the knights on the horse's back, and the spear penetrated the knights!
The wine bag carefully prepared by Zhao Kuo did not work, but almost harmed his plan. Fortunately, the wind at night helped Zhao Kuo a lot of help. As long as sparks emerged from the food and grass, they could immediately become taller than people under the encouragement of the wind. In order to form a fortress, these carriages were piled together, and the fire continued to spread. Even a few soldiers who wanted to put out the fire ignited flames and rolled in pain on the ground.
"What happened?" Li Bai rushed out of the camp with a trembling trembling. He was in the central army and vaguely heard the cry of the rear army. The front army seemed to know the movement. Several generals were quickly rushing towards the central army with cavalry. A dark-faced soldier held a torch and shouted to Li Bai: "General! Zhao's army sneaked up! They sneaked into the rear army's food and grass cart!!"
"Jian Sheng, Hai, Wubing leads the cavalry to support him!"
"Listen to my orders, you lead the infantry to surround the rear army from the left! I will surround the right side and quickly send the rear army to not let the Zhao army escape from the rear! Block them!" Li Fu shouted, looking left and right, but few commanders came out in time. Li Fu jumped up angrily: "Sooner or later, I will slash you!! Sooner or later, I will slash you!!" The lazy generals, coupled with the soldiers who could not command, and the problematic array led to a huge disaster for the rear army.
He looked at the sea of fire in the distance, almost burning the night into daylight. He almost cried. Under his shout, the commander finally prepared to take the soldiers to encircle him!
The torches on Zhao Kuo were used up. At this moment, he was holding a spear of the Yan Man and was constantly picking up the Yan Man's bonfire. Logically speaking, when making a fire, he would surround the bonfire to avoid fires. However, the Yan Man didn't seem to want to be so troublesome. After the bonfire was overturned, sparks burst out. Zhao Kuo didn't know if this could work. The other knights had igniting objects and were still throwing them towards the grain truck.
Zhao Kuo didn't even have time to look back at the burning carriages. A soldier rushed over and stabbed Zhao Kuo in the calf. Zhao Kuo was in pain and threw out the sword in his hand and hit the Yan man's chest directly. As the Yan man reacted, the resistance Zhao Kuo encountered became increasingly greater. Around the surroundings, all of them were full of soldiers from the Yan man. The knights were fighting fiercely with the soldiers, with heavy casualties.
"Back!!" Zhao Kuo roared and rushed over again. He encountered several soldiers in front of him. The horses flew away directly. The spear in his hand was constantly waving, and his hands were sore. Zhao Kuo felt that his arm muscles seemed to have been torn apart. A feather arrow shot out and inserted it on Zhao Kuo's right arm. Zhao Kuo screamed again, his eyes were bloodshot, and the spear hit a soldier hard. The spear broke, and the soldier spurted out blood and fell to the ground.
Zhao Kuo had no weapons and could only run wildly. "Puchi~", and some severe pain came from his back, but this time it was not as painful as before. It was as if he was bitten by a bee. Zhao Kuo did not turn around, but just lowered his body. The horse rushed out of the enemy formation, and the knights dispersed and ran in different directions! The knights of the Yan people finally arrived. When they heard the whistling sound from behind, Zhao Kuo subconsciously lowered his head. At that moment, the short sword swung past his hair.
Zhao Kuo was cold all over. When he saw the Yan knight passing by him, Zhao Kuo suddenly reached out and grabbed the soldier's back coat. "Crack~", Zhao Kuo's hand was dislocated, and the knight who almost killed Zhao Kuo was directly pulled off the horse and then died under the trampling of the horse. The Yan knight was still chasing, and the feather arrow hit Zhao Kuo like raindrops.
