The king behind the empress

Chapter 432 The Fire Burns the Mountain

After Zhao Qing killed Zhao Yan, the matter was not resolved. The army from the criminal camp outside blocked the exit. If they were not dealt with, his own army would have to starve to death in the two mountains.

The only thing that makes Zhao Qing feel more fortunate is that the weather today is not as cold as it was in the past two months, otherwise this early in the morning, there would be many soldiers wearing close-fitting single clothes, and some of them would freeze to death.

"You, who will lead the troops to meet the enemy and fight a way out for our army?"

Zhao Qing looked at the generals under his command, and asked a question.

As a result, all the generals bowed their heads silently. Although they don't know whether the military situation reported by Zhao Yan just now is true, the army blocking the exit must be very strong, otherwise Zhao Yan's 1 people would not be so fast Return in defeat.

In addition, the exit is so narrow, what do they use to fight?Take your own life to fill it up?
So at this time, all the generals were silent when they felt Zhao Qing's questioning.

Looking at the generals who fell silent collectively, Zhao Qing also felt a little helpless. His subordinates were all new recruits, and even these generals, including himself, mostly had no combat experience, and they were all just talkers.

So it's okay to bully and bully those ordinary troops with a large number of people, but now that they are in a desperate situation, they are immediately at a loss.

"Forget it..."

Zhao Qing shook his head, and said: "Since this is the case, then don't rush to do it, and step up your defenses at the entrance, and don't let them come in."

"As for the rest of the people, send them out and find out if there is another exit here."

"Here!"

Hearing that they don't need to fight by themselves, these generals were a little happy in their hearts, so they quickly responded, and then took people to search around, trying to find another exit.

As for Xu Boyuan's side, although the mountain was steep, with their marrow-washing strength, even if they were carrying something on their backs, they were almost as if they were walking on flat ground, and they quickly climbed to the top.

"Put the fire oil and firewood here, and then continue to look for igniters."

There were only thirty or so barrels of these fierce oil left, and Xu Boyuan sent someone to the place where the army was stationed to get them back.

As for the remaining igniters, most of them are some rotten wood felled from the mountains, and it is best to put them together with the fire oil as ignites.

It's just that these are not enough, the space in the valley is too empty, and the firewood they found is not enough to ignite a fire that can spread throughout the valley.

So after Xu Boyuan left some of them here to guard, he immediately led people to continue cutting down trees.

Now is the season from winter to spring, and most of the trees have not germinated. After the fire ignites, all these trees can be used as fuel, so Xu Boyuan didn't pick them, and just took a closer look. As long as they look dry, they They were all cut down.

Mo Zizai equipped them with high-quality iron knives, which were now used as axes for chopping wood and used directly to chop trees.

The strength of these first camp soldiers is almost all marrow-washing level, so even if they use a knife to chop up these numbers, it is not difficult at all. Without any hindrance.

Three thousand first camp soldiers cut down the trees for two days, and the trees piled up like a mountain. They didn't stop until the entire cliff was a little bare.

And during these two days, Zhao Qing in the valley organized soldiers and horses to charge the exit twice, but each time they left more than a thousand corpses behind, and then came back in defeat.

During this process, it’s not that no soldier thought about surrendering, but after coming over, Chen Jiu didn’t care whether he came to surrender or not, he just led someone to draw a knife and hacked. After killing several times like this, no one dared to come over again Surrender.

It's just that they didn't have any food for two consecutive days, and the army in the valley seemed to be rioting. After all, if they continued to be trapped like this, within three days, all of their more than [-] people would starve to death in this valley.

"it's time."

Standing on the cliff, Xu Boyuan looked at the turbulent army at the foot of the mountain, waved his hands and said, "Throw all the dry firewood down!"

When felling these trees, Xu Boyuan and the others had already done a good job of sorting. The flammable dry firewood was separated from the new wood that had just been cut and was not easy to ignite. Piles of dry firewood were thrown away.

"what?"

Looking at the things falling from the cliff, Zhao Qing was startled, and immediately said: "Go and let all the soldiers lean against the cliff, and be careful of falling rocks on the mountain."

Zhao Qing thought that Xu Boyuan and the others had just climbed up the mountain and were going to kill them with falling rocks, so he immediately asked the soldiers to stand by the mountain wall to avoid the falling rocks from the mountain.

Hearing Zhao Qing's warning, all the generals hid immediately, and then sent someone to notify their soldiers.

Firewood that was as thick as a wrist, or even as thick as the mouth of a bowl, kept falling, and many soldiers who were unable to escape in time fell to the ground directly after being hit, and never got up again.

Fortunately, most of these dry firewood were weightless after being dried, so except for some unlucky ones, most of the soldiers escaped the attack of these firewood by leaning against the rock wall in time.

"Why are they all wood?"

The soldiers standing next to the mountain wall watched for a long time, and found that the things that fell from the sky were all dry firewood, and there was no falling rock.

"Could it be that there are no rocks on the mountain?"

These soldiers, including Zhao Qing, subconsciously came up with this idea in their hearts, but soon they were amused by themselves, how could there be no stones on the mountain.

However, since there are stones on the mountain, why did the enemy soldiers on the mountain only throw logs down?It seems that there are quite a few people on the mountain. In just a short while, a thin layer of wood has been paved in the valley. After the wood was broken on the ground, they squeezed each other and almost blocked the road for them. .

Just after this idea emerged in their hearts, some black liquid suddenly poured down from the mountain.

"what?"

Zhao Qing was stunned for a moment, and after smelling the pungent smell, a sudden flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he blurted out, "It's fierce fire oil!!!"

After guessing this answer, Zhao Qing's hands and feet became cold in an instant. He glanced at the soldiers under his command, but didn't say anything to remind him, but turned around and ran out of the valley.

"Run!"

Zhao Qing, who ran away, didn't even forget to inform his personal guards. As for other things, he didn't say anything.

Although Zhao Qing's personal guards were a little puzzled, seeing how anxious Zhao Qing was, they didn't ask any questions, but followed Zhao Qing and ran out of the valley.

As for the other generals, they were quick-witted and reacted. They were about to shout, but after seeing Zhao Qing's actions, they immediately closed their mouths, and then chased after Zhao Qing with their confidantes.

And after they escaped, a person with a weak mind finally came to his senses, and he shouted loudly: "It's fierce fire oil, those people on the mountain are going to burn us to death!"

As soon as this remark came out, all the soldiers woke up like a dream. After a short moment of daze, these soldiers ran away immediately, and the scene suddenly fell into chaos. Many people were crowded and trampled. After falling, there is no chance to stand up again.

The reason why Zhao Qing didn't remind him was because he was afraid that this would happen, so he slipped away quietly with his personal guards.

It's just that although these soldiers have reacted now, it's too late, because more than a dozen barrels of kerosene have been poured down, and as a few rockets are shot down, the poured kerosene suddenly burst into flames.

The fierce fire oil that ignited when it caught fire directly ignited the dry firewood that Xu Boyuan and the others had dropped before, and the dry firewood that was spread all over the ground also burned after a short while.

In the valley, flames shot up into the sky, followed by smoke and dust all over the sky. Many soldiers who hadn't run far were choked to the point of being unable to straighten up, and then fell to the ground and couldn't get up again.

As for some of the soldiers further inside, except for some soldiers who were directly roasted to death by the flames, more of them hid deeper, trying to avoid the burning of these fires.

And Xu Boyuan, who left the firewood, had no intention of giving up. A large part of the new wood they felled was chopped into pieces by them. Wood dropped it.

Although these new woods have a lot of moisture, it is difficult to burn, but because the fire in the valley is too strong, these new woods are quickly dried out, and then burn slowly.

During this process, these new trees emitted a large amount of smoke, and the thick smoke directly covered the entire valley. In addition to making the entire valley invisible, many soldiers were choked to death by the thick smoke. among.

"Keep throwing, don't stop!"

Xu Boyuan knew that although the dry firewood burned quickly, it didn't last long. If he didn't keep throwing the kindling down, the flame would be extinguished soon, so he continued to order the soldiers under his command to cover their mouths and noses, and continued to go into the valley. Throw wood.

After the dry firewood is thrown away, the new wood fragments split by them are thrown away, and when the fragments are also thrown away, the new wood is thrown down. Anyway, the fire has already started, and they are not afraid of smashing the fire. It doesn't matter what you throw.

On the cliff, they fell down the wood they had acquired for two full days, but they kept throwing it down.

Zhao Qing, who was the fastest to escape, couldn't help but feel a little lucky when he saw the flames burning behind him.

Fortunately, he escaped early, if it was a step later, he would have to stay inside as a roast chicken.

"How many people are left?"

Zhao Qing glanced at him and saw that some other generals escaped besides him, and said, "Count the number of people, we must kill this time, otherwise, when the fire spreads, we will all be burned to death!"

Zhao Qing's personal guard went over to check it, and then came back soon to report: "Marshal, there are more than 8000 points left."

"More than 8000?"

Zhao Qing was a little surprised, he didn't expect so many people left, but after thinking about it for a while, he thought it was normal, because the spread of the flame is not a flash, so most of these people escaped before the fire spread. It is normal to have so many people.

"fair enough."

For Zhao Qing, the more people the better, the more people, the greater his confidence in breaking through Chen Jiu's blockade.

"Brothers, they tried to burn us, and they didn't leave us alive."

Zhao Qing gathered his soldiers together and said loudly, "They won't even accept our surrender. Are you willing to stay and be burned alive by them?"

"I don't want to! I don't want to!!!"

The soldiers who were driven to a desperate situation showed the courage to break the boat at this time, because they knew that if they could not escape from this battle, then they would never have the hope of escaping.

"Okay, since that's the case, we will fight with them!"

Zhao Qing snarled loudly with all his strength: "We have twice as many people as them, and we need to let them know that we are not the meat on their chopping board!!!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!!!"

The morale of these defeated soldiers was completely mobilized by Zhao Qing at this time. They held the weapons in their hands tightly, and their hearts were full of killing intent towards Chen Jiu and the others.

Seeing the mobilized morale of these soldiers, Zhao Qing felt a little satisfied. He knew that the soldiers who would die were left behind. In order to survive, even if they gnawed with their teeth, they would find a way out.

Zhao Qing felt that with the morale of these soldiers now, even if the last one died, they would not collapse. With their state, even against the most elite army in the world, Zhao Qing felt that he had a chance. force.

The only thing that worries him is whether Chen Jiu and the others will open their mouths to surrender, because these soldiers have such high morale because of the idea of ​​survival. Immediately will be called prototype.

But thinking of this, Zhao Qing immediately shook his head. It would be even better if they were willing to surrender.

After all, he is not the kind of hardliner who wants to fight to the end. He sent people to Chen Jiu's side before, wanting to surrender Chen Jiu, but after his people arrived, Chen Jiu didn't listen to him at all. Just hacked his own people to death.

This incident made Zhao Qing full of resentment. He didn't know where he offended the commander of that army. Why did he feel that they rejected him and his army so much?

Zhao Qing didn't take what his army did to those villages and towns along the way. In his opinion, although it was inappropriate for his soldiers to take some money and recruit some civilian husbands, it was not a big deal. .

After all, when the army was deployed, it was impossible for him to take care of everything, so there were some small flaws, which were nothing at all.

It was precisely because of this that he didn't understand why Chen Jiu was so repulsive, and even hated his army a little bit.

But if he can't figure it out, he is not ready to think about it anymore. Looking at the morale of his soldiers now, he is absolutely sure that he can pass through the pass guarded by Chen Jiu, so if Chen Jiu surrenders, then he surrenders. , then he would simply lead someone out to kill him.

He didn't believe that Chen Jiu could stop his army, which was not afraid of death!
Zhao Qing brought the troops under his command to the exit guarded by Chen Jiu. Seeing that Chen Jiu didn't show any sign, he couldn't help but gritted his teeth, then turned his head and shouted loudly: "Brothers, if you kill them, you can live."

"It's up to you whether you live or die!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The morale of Zhao Qing's soldiers was like a rainbow, staring at Chen Jiu and the others with murderous intent in their eyes.

Looking at the completely different army in front of him, Chen Jiu couldn't help but frowned slightly, but soon his expression returned to normal. No matter what happened to the other side, he was just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered in his eyes .

Even if the lamb grew horns, it wouldn't be much of a threat.

"Kill them back."

Chen Jiu drew out the knife slowly, and then said: "If they don't want to go back, they will all be killed."

"Here!"

Hearing Chen Jiu's order, a sinister smile appeared on the faces of the soldiers of the crime camp. These days, they have been killing those weak chickens without any challenge.

But now, these weak chickens actually have some thoughts of resistance, which makes their boring days a little more fun.

As for the danger to the soldiers on the opposite side, no one cares about these soldiers in the criminal camp, because there is no soldier in the criminal camp who is afraid of death, and those who are afraid of death have already died in the criminal camp.

These soldiers in the crime camp are all unpardonable criminals, so in order to mobilize the initiative of these prisoners, Mo Zizai personally set a final elimination system for the crime camp.

Every time a criminal battalion participates in a war, the criminal battalion will have the lowest military merit standard. If this standard is not passed, then the last elimination system will be activated, and the hundred criminal camp soldiers with the least combat merit will be dragged out mercilessly beheaded.

Therefore, under Mo Zizai's perverted system, all the soldiers of the criminal camp were forced to become lunatics who were not afraid of death. Compared with these lunatics, the soldiers on the opposite side who were trying to survive were simply childish.

There were still a thousand soldiers from the crime camp this time, following behind Chen Jiu, and rushed over silently.

In this battle, the soldiers under Zhao Qing had no way out, and neither did he, so he gritted his teeth and rushed to the front.

He was not very familiar with the military, and the reason why he was able to command the 15 army was largely because he was a warrior in the golden body state, so at this moment he rushed to the forefront, with absolute certainty in his heart that he could make a breakthrough.

"Bang~"

Zhao Qing, who was the fastest to charge, handed over the double swords to Chen Jiu, and then he was shocked to find that although Chen Jiu's strength was weaker than him, he was still in the golden body state, and he couldn't solve it in a short time at all.

Before he could turn around from this discovery, he discovered that a soldier from the criminal camp had slashed at him silently while he was fighting Chen Jiu.

"Go away!"

Zhao Qing was furious, a miscellaneous soldier actually wanted to attack him, he slapped out, he thought he could kill the soldier with one slap, but he didn't expect that this slap hit the soldier's shoulder, it just made him spit out A mouthful of blood did not kill the soldier.

"how can that be!"

Zhao Qing was shocked, an ordinary pawn could block him, at least he had to have the strength of the marrow cleansing state!
At this time, Zhao Qing suddenly remembered Zhao Yan's words, and couldn't help but cursed secretly in his heart, you are a hot chicken at the bone forging level, you are not weaker than you, what kind of face do you have to say this ? ? ?
After Zhao Qing beat the soldier and vomited blood, the eyes of the rest of the criminal camp soldiers beside the soldier not only did not panic, but their eyes lit up instantly.

Generally speaking, the stronger the strength, the higher the official rank, this is a big fish!

Several people looked at each other, and when Zhao Qing resisted Chen Jiu again, they all killed him in unison.

"Go away!!!"

Zhao Qing roared angrily, but he didn't scare off the soldiers of the crime battalion at all. The soldier who charged the fastest cut off one of Zhao Qing's ears, risking a slap from Zhao Qing.

"Ah~"

Just as Zhao Qing let out a scream, another soldier slashed at him, chopping off the half of his hand that he didn't have time to take back.

Immediately afterwards, the rest of the soldiers also approached Zhao Qing's body. One by one, they cut Zhao Qing, who was in the golden body state, into several pieces. Didn't make any resistance.

Even the dying counterattack was blocked by Chen Jiu, and it can be said that he died without being aggrieved.
