The army of more than 40,000 Gongsun slowly stopped like a long dragon.
Guo Jia said with a solemn expression: "Lord, the forest ahead is deep and the grass is dense, and the mountain road is narrow, so I am afraid that there will be an ambush."
If today's dry things are dry, the leaves are yellow and the branches are withered, it is appropriate to set fire, and we have to prevent it. ” Before the words fell, the scout had already returned from his horse, and said: "Lord Qiqi, there is a post beam three miles ahead, called Bowangpo, the terrain is steep, the mountain road is narrow, and the narrowest part is only four or five zhang wide. ” What Gongsun Bai was so frightened that he almost fell off his horse.
Guo Jia was right, the front was not only suitable for arson, but also an excellent place to set fire, where Xiahoudun's 100,000 army was burned to the ground.
Gongsun Bai frowned and said: "In this way, this is the only way to Wancheng, is it going to stop here?"
Pang Tong smiled and said, "I'll send a dozen horsemen to give it a try." ” Zhao Yun asked suspiciously: "How to try?"
Pang Tong said with a smile: "If the dozen or so horsemen of our army shout loudly, beat gongs and drums all the way to the end, and no birds and birds startle and no beasts run, then there will be an ambush." ” Gongsun Bai nodded and said, "It's up to Shiyuan's plan." ” A few miles ahead, it is the legendary Bowangpo, which is more than ten miles long.
It's early spring, and after a winter, the grass is yellow, and it's a great time to set fires, and if you add fire-inducing things such as sulfur and saltpeter to the grass on both sides of the road, it will burn even harder.
After the fire, more than 50,000 ambush soldiers came out again, and tens of thousands of Gongsun soldiers died without a place to be buried.
For this ambush, Cai Mao has been preparing for three days.
Three days ago, more than 50,000 troops had entered the ambush area on both sides of the mountain road.
Since you want to set fire, of course, you must cut the fire barrier first, otherwise the fire will burn if the wind is not right, and you will be playing with fire if you burn yourself.
Just 50,000 people tossed, the birds and beasts in the mountains suffered, and the birds and beasts jumped so much that they had to flee and find another mountain to perch.
On both sides of Bowang Slope, Cai Mao, his brothers Cai Zhong, Cai He and the fierce generals were lying on the left side of the gang, looking at the movement in the north mountain road.
Ho ho Dangdangdang More than a dozen elite cavalrymen shouted loudly and beat gongs on the other hand, and galloped along the mountain road with all their noise.
"What is the intention of the thief army, do you have some doubts, so you want to use this to lure out the ambush soldiers," Cai Mao asked puzzled.
Wei Yan on the side suddenly seemed to remember something, and exclaimed: "It's not good, if there are no birds flying up this way, how can the thief army not be suspicious."
It's just that Wei Yan thought of this too late, maybe Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu were there, they would definitely catch some birds, and when Gongsun Jun came to test it, they could release birds and birds to paralyze Gongsun Bai, but Cai Mao, a mediocre person, would not think of this Cai Mao said disapprenousively: "Wen Chang thinks too much, Gongsun Bai may not be able to think of this, besides, even if the thief army is suspicious, how can it stop moving, if it stops, then Wancheng will be broken by lack of food, and mine will not be defeated." ” Wei Yan had an ominous premonition in his heart, and he wanted to say something more, but he couldn't think of a reason for a while, and he didn't say anything after all.
More than a dozen horsemen galloped all the way, and after half an hour, they returned on horseback, and turned back and said: "Lord Qiqi, there is no movement all the way, and there is no sign of birds and birds flying and beasts scurrying around." ” Pang Tong sneered: "When I waited for the march behind, the mountain road was dozens of zhang wide, and I still saw birds flying around, but there were no birds flying here, it must be that there were soldiers on both sides who had scared the birds away." ” Gongsun Bai asked: "In this way, the grain and grass in Wancheng will be exhausted, and we must pass through this mountain road as soon as possible." ” Guo Jia on the side said with a smile: "The thief army is lying on both sides, if it is only a crossbow arrow, wood and stone attack, it may not be able to bargain, it will be a fire plan, in this case, we will return the other way to the other."
Gongsun Bai asked suspiciously: "Could it be that we also use fire?"
Guo Jia and Pang Tong looked at each other and smiled: "Exactly." ” Gongsun Bai also understood in an instant, this fashion in the early spring, still blowing the north wind, the north wind blowing south, this fire will burn more than ten miles of Bowangpo into a sea of fire, but it will not spread to the north to the entire Funiu Mountain, it is indeed a good plan.
The plan was decided, and Gongsun Bai turned around and shouted, "Fetch five hundred torches."
After a while, in front of the army, the flames were blazing, and hundreds of elite soldiers with huge torches stood neatly on the grass and trees on both sides of the mountain road, and a large area of fire barrier was also cut behind them.
"Burn" Zhao Yun gave an order.
The grass and trees on both sides of the mountain road were immediately ignited, and finally countless torches were thrown out, falling from the sky and falling into the thatch farther away.
Whew Countless more fire oil bombs were thrown with trebuchets, and one after another fireballs whistled away, like meteors, flying into the grass hundreds of meters away.
The wind was blowing, and it was getting stronger and stronger, and the dead vines and weeds in the mountains rustled, and the scene was desolate.
The wind fueled the fire, and the flames grew bigger and bigger, and the flames spread rapidly like a fire dragon.
What no one could have imagined was that it was not Zhuge Liang or Cai Mao who burned Bowangpo, but Gongsun Bai.
Among the dense grass and trees on both sides of the Bowangpo mountain road, 50,000 Jingzhou soldiers are waiting for them.
Just wait for the Gongsun army to enter the mountain road, set fire to the grass and trees in front, and wait for the Gongsun army to burn into chaos, and then rush out.
For this ambush, they had been in ambush in the mountains for three days, and they had been waiting impatiently for three days, sleeping in the open air, drinking spring water and eating dry food.
Cai Mao frowned, his face showed a hideous look, and he secretly thought to himself: "There are also masters in the Gongsun army, but Lao Tzu doesn't believe that you won't go to this Bowangpo, unless you don't want to rescue Wancheng." ” As he was groaning, a strong smell rushed into his nose and mouth, and he coughed violently a few times, and jumped to his feet in shock.
"Fire, fire" Someone screamed.
"Bastard, who set the fire" Cai Mao was furious.
Soon he closed his mouth, his eyes were like copper bells, and his mouth was wide open to form an O-shape, which could be stuffed with a steamed bun.
The fire, the fire all over the mountains, the flames were so fierce that the whole sky burned red.
The fire was overwhelming, apparently not lit by his own sergeant, but spreading from the entrance to the mountain road.
This fire was actually lit by Gongsun Jun The mountains and fields were full of fire dragons dancing, thick smoke billowing, and soon burned to the ambush area of the Jingzhou army, and the sulfur and saltpeter they scattered in the grass and trees broke out violently through a little flame, and the flames flew high, like an explosion.
Although a large area of the fire barrier had been cut, the strong heat and billowing smoke still made the 50,000 Jingzhou troops panic and shout.
The fire was much greater than the fire they had intended, for they had only burned the plants and trees in front of the fire belt, and this fire set fire to all the plants and trees in front of them, so that they were surrounded by the fire between the fire belts, and although they were not burned to death, the great heat wave also made the soldiers sweat profusely and breathe, as if they were roasted in a steamer.
"It's over, it's over" Cai Mao looked at the fire in the sky, and was so angry that she fainted.
The soldiers beside the "general" were in a panic, and someone hurriedly picked up the kettle and poured a few sips of water at him.
Wei Yan, who was beside him, hurriedly asked people to help Cai Mao up, and roared: "Wet all your sleeves, cover your mouth and nose, and quickly withdraw from Bowangpo" The dense Jingzhou army fled southward like a tide, all over the mountains, and more than 50,000 chaotic troops hurriedly fled backwards with Cai Mao.
At this moment, the earth-shattering shouts and deafening sound of horses' hooves suddenly came to mind.

Five thousand white horses rushed from the firelight, like heavenly soldiers descending from the earth, surging forward.
"The rear army is in formation, blocking the enemy army" Wei Yan hurriedly shouted.
Immediately turned the horse's head, led several hundred generals, and rushed to the chaotic rear army.
The iron hooves were like the wind, and in an instant, they crashed into the terrified enemy.
The sound of flesh and bones shattering, the sound of weapons breaking and the terrible howl filled the eardrums in an instant.
Under the impact of the iron hooves, the fragile battle formation temporarily formed by the Jingzhou army was like chopping waves, and a huge gap was knocked open in an instant, and the five thousand iron horsemen were as unstoppable as a meat grinder, tearing the stubborn enemy army in half.
The White Horse God took Zhao Yun in the lead, and the spear danced like the wind, like an unstoppable arrow, tearing apart all the creatures that stood in its way.
Countless enemy soldiers were lifted into the air, countless heads flew down, and streams of blood splashed in all directions, under this super impact, the enemy soldiers were destroyed, not only, but also the remaining will to resist.
The Jingzhou army completely collapsed.
The frightened soldiers, throwing away their armor and giving up resistance, fled like headless flies.
Five thousand horsemen followed like tigers and wolves, pounced on the crumbling lambs, and the blades passed everywhere, harvesting the heads to their heart's content.
The remaining fighting spirit of the Jingzhou army also collapsed.
Zhao Yun wielded his spear, coming and going among the enemy troops, killing flesh and blood.
As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw that Wei Yan was still fighting hard, and a Yanling knife of dozens of catties danced like a windmill, injuring many of his own soldiers, and even a hundred-man commander was cut off half of his head by him.
Zhao Yun couldn't help but be furious, a pair of eagle eyes had already locked on Wei Yan.
"Under Cai Mao, there are still such good generals, and let me Zhao Yun come to meet you" Zhao Yunjian raised his eyebrows, and the horse roared, rushing towards Wei Yan like lightning.
Wei Yan had seen Zhao Yun's martial arts in Xu Du, but he also knew that his catties and taels were not Zhao Yun's opponents at all, but this defeat was too tragic, which aroused the bravery in his own blood as a general, and when he woke up and wanted to turn his horse and flee.
Zhao Yun had already galloped closer.
The forty-eight pounds of gentian bright silver spear in his hand, with the power of shaking the mountain, swept over, and the sound of breaking the wind was terrifying.
Wei Yan didn't have time to think about it.
I can only do my best.
Horizontal knives block.
I want to block this thunderous blow.
It's a pity that there is a difference of 7 points in force, how can he stop it Zhao Yun's blow carried the momentum of the Thousand Miles Divine Horse Shine on the Night Jade Lion, coupled with the instantaneous explosive power of the muscles, even if it was a super-first-class master such as Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, he had to frown, not to mention Wei Yan, a military general whose force was worth only 92. throat There was an earth-shattering roar, and the guns and knives collided.
The overwhelming force slammed into Wei Yan, and before the qi and blood in his chest had time to roll, Nuoda's body shook on the horse's back, and the war horse under his crotch retreated five or six steps in a row.
Where did Wei Yan dare to fight again, he immediately rushed into the chaos and fled.
