Chunyang First Headmaster

Chapter 602

The black smoke drifted to Jiangzuo's camp, and many Xiongnu soldiers coughed loudly. It can be so poisonous even tens of miles away. One can imagine how violent the poison contained in this tree is?

"What's going on?" Several generals in the camp came out of their tents and asked loudly, "Where did this poisonous smoke come from? Could it be that there was a fire somewhere?"

Without too much explanation, the bleak autumn wind in the night has already explained everything.

The general who led the team was also proficient in military affairs. He saw the source of the poisonous smoke clearly through the lighting fire in the camp, his expression changed, and he shouted loudly: "Take out the detoxification pool water and distribute it immediately, don't leave any horses or livestock behind! Scout the first battalion, immediately go to Yunsheng Forest to check and see what's going on?"

The Xiongnu cavalry is the most elite cavalry in the world, and those who can serve as scouts are naturally the most outstanding equestrians. Immediately, more than a dozen people resisted the discomfort in their chests, and hurriedly took two bags of detoxification lake water, gurgling a few mouthfuls, He poured out some for the horses to drink, covered the nose and mouth of the horses with a cotton cloth, packed the rest and hung them on the side of the saddle, turned on the horse, raised the torch, and disappeared into the vast night.

The general camp was in chaos, fortunately the Xiongnu had always been very strict with their troops, dozens of commanders mounted horses and galloped back and forth, if there was any commotion, they would immediately go forward and chop it down, immediately suppressing any movement in the camp.

The highest-ranking general in the camp is named Ba Siduo, who is roughly equivalent to the high-level martial arts realm of Hua Qi. He was originally a Marquis of Gudu who commanded 60 elite cavalry in his headquarters. Wan Qichang was demoted to Dongying to serve as a general, commanding thousands of Buqi.He accepted this job, full of joy, and determined to complete the task of producing [-] poisonous arrows before the winter freezes, so that he can make contributions and return to his post.Who would have thought that such a thing would happen, his face turned livid, and he walked around the camp with a knife in his hands, angrily.

"What the hell is Mangudu doing? I gave him a fully equipped centurion, and I repeatedly told him to be careful, and remember not to catch fire. How could something happen? Burning some trees is nothing. As for burning it cleanly, if too many craftsmen die, where can I find someone to make the remaining [-] poisonous arrows?"

The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became. After walking around the camp for a while, he saw that the poisonous smoke blowing over was getting thicker and thicker. Many people couldn't suppress their coughs. Tululu snorted.

"No, if this continues, the camp must be bombed!" Ba Siduo frowned, grabbed the messenger, and said loudly, "Order, abandon the camp immediately and head north to avoid the wind!"

The messenger got the order, and immediately said loudly: "The general has an order, abandon the camp immediately, and avoid the wind direction to the north!"

With one order, the whole camp immediately moved.Ba Siduo was about to order the horses to be prepared, but someone shouted: "Look, General!"

Ba Siduo turned his head to look, and saw half of Sumeru was red in the night sky in the east, and he could see it clearly in the night. I'm afraid this forest is burning! The infantry will escort the craftsmen to move north first, and the cavalry will follow me to investigate the details!"

The deputy commander hurried over, grabbed Ba Siduo, and said in a low voice: "General, the situation is unknown, and the scouts have not brought back any news so far, so if you rush to send troops, I'm afraid you will fall into the trap..."

"So what if there is a change?" Ba Siduo shook off the deputy's arm, and said in a deep voice, "If Yunshenglin is burned down, we will have a serious crime; if all the craftsmen are dead, our crime is not light. We Even if you are convicted, you should always know what happened!"

"What if it's the Zhenbei Army..."

"Suppressing the North Army?" Ba Siduo couldn't help being taken aback, thought for a while, then slowly shook his head and said, "They don't have the courage to launch a full-scale attack, even if a sentry enters our territory, hundreds of miles of wasteland, they don't have enough Resupply travels through the depths."

The deputy commander also felt that it was not the action of the Zhenbei Army, so he acquiesced to Ba Siduo's action, and immediately raised his sword and mounted his horse to follow. Three hundred cavalry lit torches and left the camp. As soon as they left the camp, they were divided into six teams and dispersed , carefully avoiding the poisonous smoke in front, and galloped all the way to Yunshenglin.

These six teams of cavalry ran for more than an hour, seeing the flames in front of them turning half of the sky red, they couldn't help but secretly startled, the fire was so fierce, and they didn't know what happened.

Ba Siduo was in the middle of the road, choked by the thicker and thicker poisonous smoke, tears flowed, but the deputy rushed over again and shouted: "General, I'm afraid the situation is wrong, and none of our scouts have turned around until now. Could something be wrong?"

Ba Siduo suddenly came to his senses, and just about to rein in his horse to see the situation clearly, suddenly there was a loud bang, and the ground shook suddenly, even with the superb riding skills of the Xiongnu cavalry, they couldn't control the horse, seven or eight cavalry were caught off guard and rolled down immediately On the ground, the horses neighed again, and the field suddenly became chaotic.

"What's going on?" As soon as Ba Siduo grasped the rein, the horseman under his seat stood up, fell to the ground, and kept turning around. Ba Siduo was startled and angry, and looked in the direction of the loud noise, but saw There are few torches left in the distance.

A gray-faced cavalryman rushed over, turned over, jumped off his horse, knelt down on one knee, and hissed, "General, the enemy planted gunpowder on the official road. We were ambushed, and only six of the fifty brothers are left!"

"Gunpowder?" Ba Siduo's face changed, and he turned around and shouted, "Order, order all the teams to approach me quickly!" Immediately, a messenger took down the horn and blew it, the sound was carried far in the middle of the night .

Immediately afterwards, there were two loud bangs, and the screams came from afar. Ba Siduo's face turned livid, and his deputy shouted loudly: "General, we can't go any further. There must be enemies in ambush ahead!"

"You can't retreat!" Ba Siduo shouted, "I don't know the enemy's situation in the dark night. If I retreat, the enemy will definitely chase after me. If the cavalry is in chaos, they will have the ability to ascend to the sky and they will be unable to recover. Order to quickly move closer to me and join forces. One place, make another plan!"

It has to be said that Ba Siduo's order is correct in most cases.The enemy's situation is unknown in the dark night, gathering troops to avoid the enemy's gradual encroachment can also create opportunities for the next counterattack.

But he never thought that Xiao Qianli is the only real enemy!
Xiao Qianli is not afraid of their joining forces, but even more afraid of them fleeing in all directions. No matter how good his martial arts skills are, there is only one person. Hundreds of cavalry fled all over the mountains and plains.

With a sound of "bang", the direction of the explosion was not more than a mile away from Ba Siduo. A group of cavalry had just approached the middle road, and they were immediately blown out of their wits by the ambushed explosives. Only a dozen people remained intact.

Seeing the flames exploding in the distance, Xiao Qianli, who was hiding in the night, smiled happily.

"Rush over there!" Ba Siduo gritted his teeth with hatred, seeing explosions coming from several places, he chose a small hill, pointed his horsewhip, and rushed down the hill in a splash.

"Hey, this guy is really brave!"

A cruel smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Qianli's mouth, and he sneered, "Not only did he not escape, but he dared to fight back?"
