My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 419 The way of heaven is easy to reincarnate, who will be spared by heaven! For the glory of the Vulcan Army!

"General!"

The door to the bedroom was knocked open, and Liang Huan, the owner of two to five hundred men, hurriedly shouted:

"It's gone!!!"

Meng Tian, ​​who was going on an expedition for the first time, had trouble sleeping.

Hearing Liang Huan's cry, Meng Tian's heart suddenly trembled and his eyes suddenly opened.

Sleeping in full armor, he subconsciously stood up, his right hand already holding the hilt of the sword, and asked hoarsely and confusedly: "What happened!"

Liang Huan said repeatedly: "The enemy sailors swam into our water stronghold and set fire to our water stronghold!"

Meng Tian's remaining trace of sleepiness was completely shocked by the word 'fire'.

Ying Chengyu's several fire attacks greatly increased the Qin Army generals' understanding of fire attacks, and also made all Qin Army generals deeply aware of how useful fire attacks are.

Just a few days ago, Ying Chengyu burned to death more than 130,000 soldiers of the Chu army with a large fire at Dahong Mountain.

I'm afraid the mountain fire in Dahong Mountain has not been completely extinguished yet, but the Chu army turned around and ran to the Qin army's water stronghold to set a fire?

Meng Tian quickly stood up: "Let's go!"

He quickly rushed out of the bedroom and ran to the deck of the building. Meng Tian's eyes were filled with flames, and Meng Tian's ears were filled with mournful cries.

"Get the sand quickly! Open the sandbox and put out the fire!"

"The crossbowmen continue to fire, and they must kill all the enemy sailors!"

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! If the boat is on fire, how can our troops escape!"

Black smoke rose.

Group after group of flames lingered and spread on the river, spreading towards the boats, and had already ignited more than twenty boats!

If they are on a wide river, other boats can speed up and avoid the fire scene to avoid being burned.

But this is a water village!

The relatively dense arrangement of boats and the only six remaining exits make it a luxury to avoid.

Just under Meng Tian's eyes, a burning middle wing was already swaying one after another under the influence of the water flow, passing its flames to another small wing!

Looking at the rapidly spreading fire, Meng Tian's hands and feet were cold and his limbs were weak.

This is his first expedition!

Otherwise, the entire army would be wiped out!

Staggering two steps forward, Meng Tian clenched the railing to support his body and shouted with all his strength: "Order!"

"All boats that have caught fire should stay where they are and do not act rashly."

"Open the North Water Gate and the Northeast Water Gate."

"Order the three troops behind, the left, and the right to come out of the water gate immediately."

"The unburned boats of the front and middle armies tried their best to stay away from the burning boats. The soldiers on the boats disembarked and swam ashore on their own. The oarsmen on the boats waited for the rear, left and right troops to leave the water stronghold before rowing out of the stronghold. !”

"Open the Dongshui Gate again and order the scouts to leave the stronghold immediately to investigate the surrounding Chu troops!"

"Please quickly invite Captain Cen to come and discuss this matter with me!"

Just as he was giving the order, Meng Tian sat down on the boat and heard a slight tremor.

Meng Tian immediately looked to the left and right of the building warily, and saw another building crashing into his car.

Cen Bian, who was wearing leather armor, jumped directly from the deck of another building ship!

Seeing Cen Bian, Meng Tian relaxed a little: "Captain Cen!"

Cen Bian had a serious face, nodded slightly, and had no time to be polite. He directly shouted in a deep voice: "Send the order to the soldiers to stop!"

The messenger looked at Cen Bian and then at Meng Tian, ​​feeling helpless in his heart.

He does belong to Meng Tian's army, but Cen Bian is also a Shangguan!

The messenger neither dared to stop nor not stop, so he could only slow down and move out bit by bit.

Meng Tian said anxiously: "The fire is getting more and more raging. If we don't hurry up, all our troops may be buried in the sea of ​​​​fire!"

Cen Bian said disdainfully: "It's just a candlelight, why be afraid!"

"If you lose your balance because of these small flames, you will fall into the Chu army's trap!"

Meng Tian was slightly startled: "Captain Cen means there is fraud?"

Cen Bian nodded solemnly and looked at the fire scene with a solemn gaze: "It smells wrong."

"The smoke isn't right either."

"I don't smell the smell of commonly used oils such as tangerine oil (female hemp seed oil), fish oil, and tung oil."

"On the contrary, I can smell the burnt aroma of burning butter, butter, and other fats!"

Meng Tian was slightly startled.

After all, it was his first time setting foot on the battlefield, and Meng Tian could not remain completely calm when facing the sudden flames.

Although he made the most appropriate disposal under normal circumstances according to the military manual, he had no intention of paying attention to the small details of 'taste'.

After all, ignition is just a process, starting a fire is the goal, and the flame is the threat!

After being reminded by Cen Bian, Meng Tian sniffed and sniffed hard, and his face suddenly turned ugly: "What Captain Cen said is true."

"This is the smell of pig fat!"

"This is unreasonable!"

In the Warring States Period when oil extraction technology was extremely rudimentary, there was an important difference between animal fats such as lard, wolf oil, dog oil, and sheep oil, and vegetable oils such as sesame oil and tung oil—whether they could be eaten!

Animal fats that can be directly used for food, such as lard and wolf fat, are very valuable.

Under normal circumstances, generals in various ministries will choose to let their soldiers eat these fats to gain more physical strength.

Only inedible vegetable oils such as sesame oil and tung oil are used for lighting lamps and setting fires.

At the same time, the stock of vegetable oils and fats in the military is generally much higher than that of animal oils and fats.

It had been less than a month since Xiang Yan went on the expedition. Could it be that the sesame oil in his supply camp had been used up so quickly and he had to start using animal oil?

Even if animal oil is used, it is better to use cheaper whale oil instead of lard!

Even if all the oil in Xiang Yan's army is used up, there must be sesame oil and tung oil in the treasury of Fancheng and other cities to defend the city. Those who support the Chu State will definitely do their best to help Xiang Yan raise oil.

Cen Bian frowned and said: "The Chu army deliberately chose to use pig oil to set fire. It must be out of tactical considerations and not because they had to waste so much money."

"but why?"

"What exactly did the Chu army want?" "Could it be that the weather is too cold and sesame oil is difficult to burn, so the Chu army chose to use pig oil fire attack?"

Meng Tian said without hesitation: "No!"

"Boar oil is indeed easier to ignite than sesame oil, and it is more suitable for the current climate."

"But if it's just for lighting a fire, you only need a piece of pig fat, and you can use sesame oil for the rest of the fat."

"Moreover, pig oil forms lumps and is difficult to spread. It is not as easy to stick to boats as sesame oil, and the burning time is much shorter than sesame oil."

"How could the Chu army give up the more useful sesame oil and tung oil just because of the fire!"

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!

Cen Bian didn't think Chu Jun's intentions were so obvious, but he really couldn't figure out what Chu Jun's intentions were.

The flames became more and more intense, and Cen Bian became more and more anxious. He could only chew on Meng Tian's words and rack his brains.

"Easier to attach to boats."

"It also burns longer."

Cen Bian's eyes suddenly lit up: "The Chu army is not going to annihilate our army with a fire like the commander did."

"Rather, he intends to use fire to disrupt our army, and then take advantage of our army's confusion and unpreparedness to charge in with our troops!"

Meng Tian was slightly startled: "Is it necessary?"

"If you can fight without bloodshed, why bother to rush in and kill!"

Cen Bian's eyes became firm: "Yes!"

"Even if oil is used, it is not easy to complete a fire attack on more than 40,000 naval forces above the water."

"The Chu army does not have the oil of our Great Qin. It is far more difficult for the Chu army to make fire than for our army!"

"That's why, this fire is only for attacking the heart!"

The more he talked, the more confident Cen Bian became.

This fire can scare Meng Tian, ​​but not Cen Bian.

In the battle to destroy Wei, Cen Bian participated in the battle between Ying Chengyu and the Wei navy.

In terms of conventional water battles, Cen Bian can only be regarded as average.

But when it comes to water battles and fire attacks in the two realms of water and fire, Cen Bian has extremely rich experience.

Compared with the fire scene outside Daliang City, the fire scene in front of me is nothing!

The only thing to worry about is that the fire has burned down to his buttocks.

Cen Bian immediately said: "Order!"

"All six doors are open!"

"The boats that ordered the left, rear, and right armies to stay away from the fire immediately rushed out of the water village from the nearest water gate."

"After leaving the stronghold, the rear army turned to the front army and immediately reorganized their formation on the river and prepared for battle!"

"After the left, rear and right armies leave the water stronghold, the remaining unfired boats will leave the water stronghold and turn to the rear army."

"Instruct the oarsmen of the burning boat to row at full speed and drive the boat out of the South Water Gate."

"After leaving Nanshui Gate, if we encounter enemy troops or if it becomes difficult to maintain the boats, the entire army will dive into the water and land on their own."

"After all the fire ships leave the village, go to Nanshui Gate!"

Meng Tian followed up and said: "Send the order to Dengcheng again to close the city gate tightly and beware of enemy raids!"

The two messengers quickly handed over their hands: "Wei!"

Cen Bian took a step forward and roared loudly: "Recite this general's order!"

"The commander-in-chief of our army is Lord Chang'an of Great Qin!"

"Why are you afraid of this mere flame!"

"Cheer up and prepare for battle. Don't let the majesty of Chang'an Lord fall!"

The soldiers on one boat after another shouted in unison, spreading Cen Bian's shout throughout the entire water village.

For a time, many Qin soldiers were stunned.

Yes.

Our coach is the reincarnation of Zhu Rong!

Then we are all the Vulcan Army!

Zhu Rong’s Vulcan Army is afraid of fire?

Isn't this funny!

More than 40,000 Qin troops roared in unison:

"I wish Rong Linfan, this battle will be won!"

Cen Bian finally showed a relaxed smile:

"Leave the stronghold and organize the army!"
-

At the same time, the Qin army's water stronghold was two miles downstream.

Looking at the burning Qin army's water stronghold in the distance, Xiang Rong couldn't help but feel joy in his eyes.

"The Qin army destroyed our army with fire."

"Today, the Qin army will also experience the pain of being burned by fire!"

Heaven is so good at reincarnation, who will be spared by Heaven!

Ying Chengyu, when you set fire to Dahong Mountain, did you ever think that your military water village would also be burned by fire!

However, at this moment, the Qin Army's South Water Gate opened, and more than thirty burning warships were speeding towards the Chu Army!

Xiang Yan was slightly startled, then said softly: "It's noisy."

Several strong men standing behind Xiang Yan took off their shirts, revealing their muscular upper bodies. They held drumsticks and beat the Fen drum heavily against the main battle drum.

"Boom! Boom!"

Immediately after the main war drum, all the war drums of each department were beating, and the rumble of the drums resounded across the river, creating the momentum for a decisive battle!

However, Xiang Yan ordered again: "The former army will stay here, and the other troops will retreat two miles in concealment."

"Send an order to Commander Qu Che and Commander Du to fight, and immediately land ashore to attack Deng City!"
