Chapter 68 Set fire to the mountain
At the foot of the mountain, there are winding torches like a long dragon, and countless horses roaring forward on the ground.

Under the distant night sky, the sky is overwhelming and the waves are turbulent, which frightens the animals in the mountains and forests to panic and run around in the dark.

It was Beidi cavalry who came.

"Report, general, the 3 army led by Vice General Haimu has arrived."

Yeluxie: "Well, some people are guarding, and some people are starting to search the mountain."

It is not easy for the men and horses brought by Yeluxie to walk all over the mountain!
Although there are steep cliffs on both sides, how do you know where the enemy is hiding in the continuous mountains.

Beidi soldiers are very strong, but in the dark night, there are too many places to hide in the jungle, and the enemy has not found them, and these people are almost dead.

In addition, the range of the two exits was so large that the 2 horses he sent had spread out to surround the entire mountain. However, so many people seemed so small in front of the mountain.

Yeluxie originally wanted to wait until dawn before searching the mountain, but he couldn't wait for a moment, he thought Ye Qing was too cunning, maybe if he didn't pay attention, the other party would run away without a trace.

Searching the mountains is not an easy task. On the first day, I returned without success, and I didn't even know where the enemy was!
Also because of the dangers in the mountains and forests, dozens of soldiers lost their lives all at once!

Yeluxie was very annoyed, and cursed these soldiers as idiots.

He didn't believe in this evil, those Dongling people couldn't grow wings, since they couldn't find them, they would set them on fire, even if they had three heads and six arms, they couldn't escape from this mountain!
Now that the autumn is crisp and clear, everything will be burnt clean once the fire is turned on, and the thousands of Dongling soldiers who come here will only be reduced to a handful of ashes.

Looking at the tens of thousands of people in the dark, Yeluxie said coldly: "Guard all the exits, and set fire to the mountain now."

"Yes!"

After everyone left, his confidant looked at Yeluxie and said anxiously: "General, absolutely not, if this fire goes down, everything will be over."

Yelu glared at him angrily: "It's over, what's up?"

Confidant: "General, have you ever thought that this fire burned not only this mountain, but also us. We have so many soldiers going in to light the fire. If we don't win, we will die inside. Besides, setting fire These generals know better than anyone how harmful the burning of mountains is.

Although we are now at the foot of the mountain, there is no guarantee that the fire will not spread to other places. This mountain is past Nanyong City, and there are our garrisons there. "

Yelu looked sideways at the soldiers who had already started to move, and smiled coldly: "Don't worry, this king has sent someone to notify the commander of Nanyong City, and they will be ready. Does this king care about the stakes you mentioned? The mountain, the water, are these people from Beidi? The purpose of this general is to burn them to death."

The confidants were anxious and could do nothing, because the fire had already started, and the forest fire, unless it rained, no one could save it.

...

In the jungle

"Commander Ye, I, I, yes, no, are you going to die?"

Deep in the jungle, a soldier was seriously injured on the Huayan plank road, and Ye Qing had already made a simple bandage for him.

But when he was running away, the wound that was not stitched up and only covered with clothes opened again, and blood flowed out suddenly.

The escape was too hasty, Ye Qing didn't have time to sew up his wound, and the soldier didn't want others to worry about him, so he just took off his underwear, wrapped it tightly around his abdomen, endured the severe pain, and fled with the large army!

What was even more unfortunate was that when he entered the jungle, he was shot by another arrow, which passed through his back and pierced his entire chest.

It was Liao Songren who carried him back.

The soldier was pale and powerless lying on the ground full of leaves.

His armor had already been split open, a knife wound from the left chest to the right abdomen, the wound was deep, and the arrow made it worse.

"Heizi, you must persevere, Commander Ye will definitely save you." Liao Songren's eyes turned red.

Heizi was as angry as a silk: "Brother Liao."

Liao Songren covered his wound with his hands, but the wound was too long to cover it with his hands, and blood continued to flow out.

A soldier finally found Ye Qing.

Ye Qing took a look, and quickly rummaged to find the needle and thread from her body.

Liao Songren wanted to help, but he didn't know where to start, so he stood by at a loss.

Seeing Heizi's face getting worse and worse, tears burst into tears suddenly, and he choked up and said, "Commander Ye..."

What he wanted to say was: Commander Ye, please save him. He is my brother. We are from the same village. I promised his family that I will bring him back safely.

Ye Qing looked at his panicked and desperate eyes, and said comfortingly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

It's just that the white intestines have flowed out, and the sharp arrow piercing the heart makes people feel painful!

At the beginning, Li Zihan and the others had used up all the catgut they had prepared, but what they prepared later was all prepared by Liao Songren when he was the leader of the army, using force to force those people in the kitchen to make it!
Heizi smiled weakly: "Ye, Tong, Ling, don't waste it, waste it..."

This guy has a silly smile when he smiles, Liao Songren once teased him, you are a fool, you don't even know you are sold out, and you even nicknamed him Hei Hanzi!
Ye Qing's eyes hurt, but he still comforted him: "Don't worry, I will definitely cure you."

Ye Qing only recognizes one death principle - his comrade-in-arms has not died yet, he will never let him die here, he must be saved!
This concept has been conveyed to everyone's heart, and they will never abandon or give up on their comrades.

The fire was burning, and Ye Qing was preparing to sew up his wound by the light of the fire!
In the dark night, the light of the fire is the easiest to expose the target. For the sake of safety, it is not allowed to light a fire.

However, the soldier was injured, and if he was not treated, he would never be able to get out of this jungle.

Ye Qing comforted him: "Believe in my medical skills, don't worry, you won't die if I'm here. Didn't we agree to visit every inch of Beidi?"

Heizi weakly stretched out his hand to stop Ye Qing, his face was as pale as paper: "I, I, I can't do it, leave these to the brothers who need it, I really want to see us, the day we win..."

Ye Qing crouched in front of him, clenched her fists tightly, determined to save him.

Heizi grabbed Ye Qing's hand tightly, but he didn't know where he got so much strength!
Ye Qing knew what he meant, so she wouldn't let her waste needlework!
Heizi opened his mouth, but didn't say a word, his eyes gradually blurred.

He is from Jiangnan, he is only 21 years old this year, and he is already the father of two children.

The family is too poor, this time to catch the strong men, the family has no money to hand in, so they have to join the army with everyone!

If he died in battle, the pension in the army should be able to support the wind and rain home for several years.

He was about to die, and he always remembered how scared, hesitant and helpless he was when he first went to the battlefield, watching one soldier after another dying beside him, thinking that his life was over like this.

Unexpectedly, he would live two more months because of the twists and turns.

Heizi struggled to open his eyes and looked at Ye Qing: "Ye, Tong, leader, I, first, let's go."

He also wanted to make contributions and return to his hometown with all his glory. From then on, no one would dare to look down on his two children.

He wants to give parents, wife and children a better life, especially his wife, who is still so young and hasn't enjoyed a good day. He wants to give her all his love and make her the happiest woman in the whole village.

Blood gushed from the throat, and the pain in the internal organs was unspeakable!
The mountain wind kept blowing, the man on the ground slowly closed his eyes, and let go of Ye Qing's hand.

Liao Songren suddenly looked up at Ye Qing: "Commander Ye..."

Ye Qing closed her eyes and said weakly, "He's gone."

Liao Songren broke down in tears: "Heizi's family is very difficult, his mother is not in good health, and his two children are still very young, one is three years old and the other is two years old..."

He and Heizi have a deep friendship. Not only are they from the same village, they are also brothers who played together since childhood.

Ye Qing listened quietly, and when Liao Songren remained silent, she walked up and patted him on the shoulder: "We must avenge him."

...

"It's not good, the enemy set fire to the mountain."

Ye Qing looked up, and there were trees all around, so he couldn't see anything.

Just keep going up the hill!
Walking to a high place, I saw that the foot of the mountain was already full of flames!

It seems that Yeluxie has made up his mind to kill them in this jungle!

Zhou Zhenwei spread out the map. This map is actually not very clear. It is not like a modern map. The places and names are clearly marked. This is just a rough idea.

Ye Qing stared at the map and searched back and forth, there were cliffs on both sides!
If you want to go down the mountain, you can only go out from where you came from yesterday!
Or go to the other side, that exit, how far the road is, I don't know yet.

But since the enemy dared to set fire, it meant that they must have arranged a large number of people at another exit, waiting for them to throw themselves into the trap.

He quickly fixed his gaze on a small location marked on the map, and said, "Have Cheng Yun and the others returned?"

"not yet."

"We'll find another way to go down the mountain, and we'll go down here."

Zhou Zhenwei: "No way, this is a cliff, how can I walk? How can I go down?"

Ye Qing: "Look at this topographic map, this cliff is actually not as steep as we imagined, if you guessed right, there should be a way to go down.

You see, the wildfires are coming from all directions, and the enemy just wants to burn us to death here. If the speed is fast, the exit can also go, but in this way, we are like sheep entering the tiger's mouth, waiting to be slaughtered by the enemy. They will never Expected, we dared to go out from the cliff. "

"Commander Ye." Zhou Zhenwei paused and said, "The uninjured ones can still walk, but how can the injured ones walk?"

Ye Qing: "Turn back."

...

"Report to the general, the mountain fire has started to burn, and all exits have been blocked!"

Yeluxie nodded slightly, and waved his hand: "Everyone, stay vigilant, those Dongling bastards are very cunning."

In the dense forest on the mountain, a long team has already shuttled through the forest!
Zhou Zhenwei followed Ye Qing's side, looking at the steep mountain in front of him, his face was heavy: "How do I get down here?"

Ye Qing: "Wait for Cheng Yun and the others to come back and make a decision."

At this moment, Cheng Yun and the others came back. They climbed up from the cliff, and they stared at Zhou Zhenwei in a daze. , climbed up from below?"

Only Ye Qing looked calm: "Tell me about the following situation."

Cheng Yun looked at Ye Qing with a happy face: "Commander Ye, your guess is correct. There is indeed a road below that can directly reach the foot of the mountain. Moreover, the distance is still very short, but it is a little dangerous."

This cannot be said to be a road, but it can be walked.

This path is very dangerous, and if you are not careful, you may fall into the thorns on both sides.

Ye Qing looked back at all the soldiers, and saw that although their faces were exhausted, they were extremely excited, with the bloodiness of soldiers all over their bodies.

These soldiers, like her, hoped to wipe out Beidi's army from the moment they left for Huaiyang City!

They even forgot that they are also a son, or a husband, or even a father, and now they only remember that they are soldiers of Dongling.

Thinking of this, Ye Qing felt a little pain in his heart!
The lives of more than 5000 soldiers were placed in her hands, how many of them could she bring back in the end?How many people will be buried on the battlefield?

However, there are some things that have to be paid for!
Ye Qing withdrew all her emotions, and discussed going down the mountain with Zhou Zhenwei and others!
Taking this shortcut, you should be able to reach the foot of the mountain at night. This not only shortens the journey, but also goes around the enemy's rear and directly burns their camp to avenge the burning of the mountain!
Ye Qing: "Okay, since that's the case, everyone set off immediately."

"Yes! Commander Ye!"

I have to say that this road is really steep, with cliffs on both sides. Fortunately, this section of the road is not very long, and the extended path is just enough for one person to pass!

When crossing the mountain stream, Ye Qing had to clear a long thorny path in front of him, so as not to walk the path on the edge of the cliff!

On one side of the trail is the abyss, and the horse is very scared!
But there was no other way, Ye Qing could only appease Ma'er's emotions, and it took a long time before he let Ma'er continue to move forward!

It's not a last resort, the horse can't be lost!
Hurrying non-stop, the team finally led their troops through the steep path!

The army kept moving forward until it was nearly [-] miles away from the mountain, then stopped and rested on the spot, and it was already night.

The whole journey went smoothly. At that time, several soldiers almost fell into the mountain stream. Fortunately, there was no danger. However, dozens of horses were damaged!

"Cheng Yun, you immediately arrange scouts to detect everything in front of you, as well as the enemy's movements!"

Ye Qing pointed to a certain place on the map by the light of the fire, and said, "We will arrive here tomorrow."

"Yes!"

"Remember, be careful!"

"Yes! Commander Ye, please rest assured, we know how to do it!"

What Yeluxie didn't know was that Ye Qing had already come down from the mountain and headed straight for his camp!
