Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 2358 Wind Magic, Wind and Fire Raging

Setting fire to a city is always the cruelest order. It is no different from massacring a city!
Under normal circumstances, even if it is to burn the city, in most cases, it is more of a strategy, not a real intention to burn the city directly.

Basically, they set fires in several important places, and many people would disperse the nearby civilians before setting the fires. The purpose was to use this method to curb the enemy's military strength after the city was broken, giving them a chance to break out.

After all, although this fire was not really going to burn down the city, if soldiers were brought in to put out the fire in time, the fire would definitely be controlled. But if no one cared, the people of the city would really be in great danger.

But Wang Jian's order this time was obviously different. He really wanted to burn the city completely!
As for the people of this city, they were not within his consideration.

In other words, there are no more people in this city!
After Zhu Yuanzhang issued the order to mobilize all citizens to serve as soldiers, there were no more pure civilians in the Jianghuai region!
Even if they were civilians before, as long as they are organized, they are soldiers!
There is psychological pressure in massacring civilians, but on the battlefield, if it is to kill soldiers, it doesn't matter what means are used as long as victory can be achieved.

War is a dirty game!

Only dirty players can achieve final victory.

"Fourth Prince, what's going on? Why are the enemy troops starting to retreat? Could it be that our reinforcements have arrived?" The seriously injured Yao Xing asked with a glimmer of unrealistic hope.

"At this time, where can we get reinforcements?" Zhu Di did not have such unrealistic hopes.

Although he also hoped that a reinforcement army would arrive, he knew very well that at this time, no force could reach Shouchun. Even if they really came, they would not be able to make it out of the Jianghuai area.

"No, look there?" Wen Zhong beside him said with a look of horror at this time.

"That old bastard Wang Jian has discovered our plan!"

The appearance of that ray of fire, although it was still very weak, but the situation in the city was arranged by Zhu Di himself. He knew very well that once the fire started, it would be a spark that could start a prairie fire, and the entire Shouchun city would be engulfed in a sea of ​​fire.

Now, it seems that this fire cannot become a platform for mutual destruction of both parties as he designed. Instead, he himself is about to be trapped in the fire.

"Kill! Chase them! We can't let them retreat so easily!" Zhu Di said fiercely.

If the enemy were really allowed to retreat like this, only their own people would be buried in the sea of ​​fire.

Therefore, he left their carefully designed streets and took the initiative to chase after them, in order to delay the enemy's retreat. Even if he had to leave one more enemy soldier behind, he wanted to make the enemy bleed more in this cabin.

"Ding, Zhu Di's Yongle skill is activated. When the entire army is in a life-and-death crisis, it can gain the blessing of wind-related celestial phenomena that are beneficial to the army. It can be activated up to twice a year, and this is the second time this year."

Since the Southern War began, this skill effect has been activated three times.

The first time was at the beginning of the war in the south, and Zhu Di was still on the battlefield in Jiaozhou at that time.

Although the activation of the celestial skill did not reverse the entire situation of the battle, it at least helped Zhu Di to withdraw.

However, after that, at the end of the year, Zhu Di went into a defensive state and never encountered a crisis like that one. Then, Chen Qianzhi's rebellion occurred, and Zhu Di was transferred back to Yangzhou.

However, Zhu Di had just returned when Chen Qianzhi made a feint and sneaked to the Central Plains, and Zhu Di had no chance to fight with Chen Qianzhi.

In the next period of time, Zhu Di will be in Yangzhou to reorganize the 100,000 soldiers of the aristocratic families. At this time, it is even less likely that there will be any crisis that can trigger the effect of this skill.

During Bai Qi's attack on Jiangxia, the attack lasted for more than half a year. A total of tens of thousands of people from both sides were buried under the city of Jiangxia before the Battle of Jiangxia ended.

Before that, when the Central Plains War happened, Zhu Di took over the Jianghuai position. It was from this time on that the Jianghuai battlefield was in a precarious situation.

After Shouchun was besieged, Zhu Di led more than a thousand soldiers and horses to launch a surprise attack on the enemy camp. Although he achieved certain results, his retreat was blocked by Wang Jian.

Until this time, this celestial skill effect was activated again. It was the second time Zhu Di activated it since the start of the Southern War, and the first time this year. This time, the activation of the skill effect once again helped Zhu Di escape from the predicament and return to Shouchun City.

Until now, facing the fire that is gradually burning, this skill effect has been activated again, and it is also the last time this year.

A breeze began to blow, and under this breeze, the fire that had already begun to brew in the city tended to intensify.

It was just a breeze at first, but as time went on, like the time it takes to stick an incense stick, the wind became stronger and stronger, fanning the flames, causing the fire to rage completely.

After a while, the wind completely turned into a gale, and even many soldiers were blown up by the storm.

Under this storm, the fire that was originally out of control seemed to be weakening.

But, it turns out, it was just an illusion!
The effect of Zhu Di's skill can only appear when the wind and celestial phenomena are beneficial to him. It does not have an absolute effect like Liu Xiu's skill.

Strong winds can indeed put out the fire, but the fire is now too big, especially since Zhu Di has placed too many flammable materials in the city. Under such circumstances, unless there is heavy rain, it cannot be put out at all.

Unfortunately, the magician Zhu Di only mastered wind magic.

So, although the fire seemed to become a little weaker, it became more violent again within a moment.

Moreover, under the strong wind, countless burning wooden stakes were swept to all parts of the city. For a moment, the fire that was originally in one direction continued to expand and burn, but now it turned into flames in all directions, all raging.

The entire Shouchun city almost turned into a sea of ​​wind and fire.

As this scene happened and the terrifyingly high temperature in the air continued to rise, I could clearly feel the water in my body being lost. In this environment, it wouldn't be long before my life would come to an end.

However, Zhu Di laughed even more unscrupulously.
