They are scattered in the wilderness, just put a circle of fences or something like that, and that's it.

Suddenly, a loud roar broke the tranquility of the night.

"Enemy attack!"

The shrill copper whistle sounded suddenly, and Wei Yan's men no longer sneaked quietly, but launched a brazen attack, emerging directly from the forest and rushing towards Cao Jun's labor camp.

Cao Jun's camp was still immersed in the dream of the New Year. Many people hadn't realized it yet, and suddenly they thought they were still in a dream.

A black torrent crashed directly into the camp, and the shouts were like thunder.

"ignition!"

"Kill!"

The fire started very quickly. I don't know if it was because of the dry weather. In many places, it was almost instantaneous.

The flames soared into the sky, rolling, greedily devouring various sacks, straw ropes, tents, wooden boards...

These tools that were originally used for labor have now become the best fuel for burning.

The night was dispersed, and the orange firelight reflected the bright red blood.

Wei Yan threw the torch with his left hand and swung the sword with his right hand, cutting down a panicked Cao Jun who ran out of the tent.

"kill!"

Wei Yan continued to charge forward.

The laborers in the labor camp basically had no fighting spirit and could only escape instinctively. However, the few Cao troops on duty in the labor camp could not withstand the impact of Wei Yan and others. Some Cao troops came in a hurry, either without armor or without weapons.

He grabbed the weapon and was soon knocked to the ground by the surging waves.

The fire gradually spread.

It stretched from the labor camp to the supply camp.

Suddenly, a flash of fire was like an angry dragon, flying straight into the sky with a bang!

Wei Yan was stunned.

this……

Is there gunpowder here?

What is this?

Huh!

There is even kerosene?!

This is so...

Very good!

Cao Jun’s supplies are really awesome!

At first, Wei Yan thought that attacking Cao Jun's barracks with hard labor might not be completely effective, but now he found that there was actually a stockpile of gunpowder and kerosene in Cao Jun's supply camp!

Isn't this just a pillow given to me when I feel sleepy?

…

…

When he first encountered the attack, Cao Tai was still a little excited.

Cao Tai didn't care at all about the collapse of the labor force. What he wanted was to catch Wei Yan who was making a sneak attack.

Therefore, from the very beginning, Cao Tai was gathering his troops and waiting in formation for Wei Yan to crash into him...

But what I didn't expect was not Wei Yan's men, but the kerosene and gunpowder thrown at him!

Originally, the stone wall on one side of the camp was a natural obstacle to prevent Wei Yan from attacking, but now it cannot stop Wei Yan's men from throwing gunpowder and kerosene!

No one could stay in order under the fire. Cao Jun's queue was quickly burned to pieces by kerosene and gunpowder. The key was the kerosene and gunpowder that Cao Jun himself had just brought!

Hearing the heart-rending screams of Cao's soldiers, Cao Tai was agitated.

The situation was completely chaotic.

Facing swords, guns, swords and halberds, the soldiers of Cao's army may not be afraid, but when faced with kerosene, oil and gunpowder, no matter how skilled or powerful they are, they cannot withstand it!

The splashing kerosene was scattered in all directions, and the gunpowder occasionally made explosive flames and loud noises.

The wind that blew was mixed with the choking smoke.

"Major General! Retreat quickly! Retreat quickly!"

"Ahem, cough, cough..."

It seemed like the whole world was on fire.

"To the south! There is a river to the south!"

At this time, only the river can save lives.

Cao Tai could only order the entire army to break out of the encirclement.

While running for his life, Cao Tai looked back, hoping to see the flag of the incoming general and know who defeated him.

It's a pity that in the chaos, nothing can be seen...

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and it seemed like there were blazing flames everywhere.

The river water is cold in winter, but when Cao Jun's soldiers saw the river water, they felt as if they were seeing their relatives. They rushed directly to the river and poured the river water on themselves. Some of them stretched their heads into the river, like cattle and horses.

Drink water...

"Strong wind!"

Wei Yan looked at Cao Jun who had escaped with a stern face.

The arrows roared out, and Cao's soldiers fell to the river bank in a mess.

Wei Yan and others were hiding on the dark flanks, and the jumping and distorted light and shadow became their best cover.

The soldiers of Cao's army who escaped from the sea of ​​​​fire were so dizzy and blinded by the smoke and fire that they could not see clearly where Wei Yan and others were, let alone defend themselves against the arrows shot from the darkness.

I can only avoid it by relying on instinct.

Flames are also harmful to Wei Yan and others. Some people were accidentally ignited while carrying gunpowder and kerosene, and immediately became flaming people. There were also some people who were running in the dark and accidentally bumped into each other.

On the weapon abandoned by Cao's soldiers...

The battlefield is like this, and the fragility of life is clearly displayed.

Wei Yan, whose eyes were sore from the stimulation of the flames and thick smoke, still persisted in looking for Cao Tai's figure in the chaotic queue of Cao Jun, just like a cheetah looking for the most suitable prey among the running herds of cattle.

Attacking and intercepting Cao's army, which was intent on escaping, would undoubtedly cost a lot of damage.

Dogs jump over walls when they are anxious, and people go crazy when they are anxious.

Regardless of the shooting here, Cao Jun's soldiers are like fools who don't know how to fight back. They can only run and escape, but if they are blocked on the road...

And chasing all the way is not a very good choice. Although the pursuit will be easier and there will be no resistance from Cao Jun's soldiers in the early stage, after Cao Jun regains some sense, plus Wei Yan and others are using mountain infantry as their main force.

Lord, you can't recuperate on your horse like the cavalry. When Cao Jun counterattacks, the positions of prey and hunter will be interchanged.

The key is that Wei Yan doesn’t have that many manpower!

The current results were beyond Wei Yan's expectation.

When Wei Yan launched the attack, he did not expect that there would be so much kerosene and gunpowder in Cao Jun's camp. His plan was to disrupt the labor camp and burn Cao Jun's baggage as the main combat goal. However, he did not expect to find an accident while burning Cao Jun's baggage.

surprise……

So, Wei Yan generously gave Cao Tai a surprise.

Arrows whistled.

Cao Jun fled away, and the arrows fired from the flanks devoured their lives. Many Cao Jun soldiers died by the river, but there were also many people who fled along the river...

Among the chaotic ranks of Cao's army, Wei Yan could not see the flag belonging to the general of Cao's army.

Does this mean General Cao Jun is dead?

Still haven't escaped in this direction?

Or maybe this guy didn't even have any shame, just rolled up his flag and blended in with the crowd?

While Wei Yan was searching, he suddenly noticed that the arrows were becoming sparse. He turned around and shouted angrily, "Fire the arrows! Keep shooting!"

"General... we have run out of arrows..."

The military academy on the side replied awkwardly and helplessly.

"So fast?" Wei Yan was stunned for a moment.

Although mountain soldiers are also versatile, the arrows each person carries are limited, and it is impossible to replenish them on the battlefield.

The soldiers of Cao's army seemed to have discovered that there were few arrows shot out of the darkness, so they shouted and fled south...

The military academy hesitated, "How about... we chase them out?"
Chapter completed!
