Three Kingdoms: Peak Summons

Chapter 157 Purgatory on Earth

Chapter 156: Purgatory on Earth

At this moment, the entire Yanmen Pass has already burned into a city of flames, and nearly half of the Huns have been burned to death!

The ground fire that could not be extinguished in the city had completely spread and ignited the wooden houses, thatched sheds, warehouses, and the Huns' military camps in the city.

　　The remaining Huns were forced to gather in a narrow area within the city wall. Only in this small area, the fire had not spread yet, and they could still stay for the time being.

However, judging from the current intensity of the fire, it will not be long before it quickly spreads to the base of the city wall.

As time continued to pass, the spreading "ground fire" finally reached the bottom of the city wall, and the charcoal at the bottom of the city wall also burned.

Looking from a distance, the entire bottom floor of the city looks like a red iron, which is extremely spectacular! But only the Huns crowded on the city wall knew that it was simply purgatory!

So the Huns soldiers were rushing to the city tower like crazy. From time to time, unlucky soldiers were squeezed down from the city tower, either breaking their arms or breaking their legs.

 “Boom~~”

Due to the scorching flames and the crowds of people on the city wall, some sections of the city could not bear the heavy pressure and collapsed suddenly. In the scattered hot smoke and dust, the soldiers who crowded the city were instantly killed in the sea of ​​​​fire.

 The situation within the pass has become chaotic, and now even Huchuquan is unable to recover.

An angry punch hit the city wall, and Huchuquan's right hand was soaked with blood, but Huchuquan didn't feel the pain at all.

“Qin Hao, you are so cruel!” Huchuquan raised his head and roared, two lines of blood and tears streaming down from the corners of his eyes.

Now Huchuquan finally knew Qin Hao's plan. It can be said that from the moment the entire Xiongnu army entered Yanmen Pass, they had already stepped into the trap of ten deaths and no life carefully woven by the Yanmen Army.

Qin Hao wanted to use Yanmen Pass to ruin the future of the Huns, but even if he knew it at this time, it was too late. The city was burned with flames inside the pass, and there was a sea of ​​fire outside the pass. The Huns had no way to retreat.

Looking at the nearly 100-meter-long sea of ​​fire outside the city, Huchuquan stared with **** eyes, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Open the city gate, let the whole army break out!"

Staying inside the pass will only lead to certain death, and the sea of ​​​​fire outside the pass is only a hundred meters away. Although it is impossible for one man to rush through, a large army can definitely escape part of it.

 A glimmer of hope is here.

 “Quack, quack~~boom!”

The closed Yanmenguan city gate suddenly opened, and a group of Huns cavalry rushed out from the city gate.

But when they galloped forward less than ten steps on horseback, the mounts wailed and fell down one after another. The cavalry on horseback fell to the red ground one after another, and the flames suddenly disappeared in an instant. Devour these Huns cavalry with both men and horses.

First, the robes and hair on the cavalrymen burned, and the soldiers and horses who had not yet died were rolling and struggling in the sea of ​​​​fire.

Both humans and animals let out bursts of extremely hideous howls, which were terrifying to hear. Within a moment, the scent of barbecue began to waft into the air.

Soon dozens of Hun cavalrymen and their riders were reduced to ashes. Only the armor of the soldiers was burned red, but it still maintained its original shape.

There was a sound of breathing on the tower of Yanmen Pass. All the soldiers were frightened by this terrible scene, and everyone fell into deep despair.

Seeing that most of the people were showing fear, Hu Chuquan immediately shouted with all his strength: "Only by breaking through the encirclement can we have a chance of survival. If we stay, we will definitely die. Everyone come to me and let's break out of the encirclement together."

Some Huns soldiers immediately surrounded Huchuquan, but most of them did not dare to see the end of the sea of ​​​​fire with their flesh and blood.

Soon there were close to ten thousand people around Huchuquan, and the rest would rather live a few more seconds and then be burned to death rather than fight for a chance of survival. They all lost the courage to move forward.

Seeing that no one was coming, Huchuquan immediately ordered a breakout. Nearly ten thousand Huns huddled together and rushed toward the sea of ​​​​fire, but they didn't know whether the way ahead was a way of life or... a way of death.

 Guangwu City. The news of the fall of Yanmen Pass was like a big mountain, pressing on the heads of all the people of Guangwu, making it impossible to breathe and even suffocating.

 Guangwu City was too close to Yanmen Pass, and Guangwu bore the brunt of the fall of Yanmen Pass.

All the people of Guangwu thought that after dawn, the Huns' cavalry would definitely go south. As soon as the war started, Guangwu suffered heavy losses, and a strong sadness was brewing in Guangwu City.

 But before daybreak, many people discovered that a burst of fire was burning in the direction of Yanmen Pass. The fire was so powerful that it turned the entire sky into a bright red.

A waiter stared in the direction of Yanmen Pass with his mouth open, and then shouted: "Look, look, Yanmen Pass seems to be on fire!"

"That's your imagination, right? Yanmen Pass is a stone pass. I personally participated in the reconstruction. There is no way it could have caught fire!"

The shop owner didn’t even raise his head and continued to clean up his beloved shop. Tomorrow he and the waiter would sign up to defend the city. It would be impossible not to clean up the shop.

When the waiter heard this, he immediately became anxious and said quickly: "If you don't believe me, boss, just see for yourself!"

 “Huh? Really, how is this possible!” The boss was also stunned.

The news of the fire at Yanmen Pass was like a whirlwind, and it soon swept through the entire Guangwu City. Many people ran out of their homes in disheveled clothes and barefoot to watch this grand event.

After discovering that the north was indeed blazing with flames, some people burst out laughing, and some burst into tears with excitement. There were always people with various reactions.

 The complexity of people's hearts is vividly reflected on the faces of the people of Guangwu at this time.

A cute loli blinked her bright eyes and asked doubtfully: "Grandpa, why did Yanmen Pass catch fire?"

The old man with Loli in his arms smiled calmly and said: "Because the Xiongnu did so many evil things, God can't stand it any longer, so he sent down a divine punishment to punish them!"

 Prefect’s Mansion.

Tonight, no one fell asleep in the Prefecture. Hao Juncheng was already preparing for the major matters of rebuilding Yanmen Pass, while the mistress Jia Yu stood in the courtyard staring at the fire in the north and murmured to herself: "Brother, you guessed it right again." , Haoer has really taken this step."

 “Jia Bo!” Jia Yu shouted softly.

After hearing Jia Yu’s call, the loyal butler Jia Bo immediately stood up and said respectfully: “Miss, the old slave is here.”

Since marrying Qin Wen, others have always called Jia Yu "Mrs. Qin" and "Mother", and they can call Jia Yu "Miss". I am afraid that Jia Bo is the only one in Yanmen who has watched Jia Yu grow up. Loyal servant.

“Have you given the things to the elder brother?” Jia Yu asked softly.

 “It has been handed over to the great master!”

 “Brother, what did he say?”

“The elder just said ‘interesting’ and left.”

"Interesting?" Jia Yu frowned slightly, lost in thought. After a while, her brows finally relaxed and she said calmly: "Forget it, no one can guess his thoughts!
