Eight hundred and sixty-eighth chapter fire Weibei
"The fire is really fierce, no wonder it is said that water and fire are ruthless."
Chu Tian witnessed the fire spreading across the northern bank of the Wei River with his own eyes, with the fire churning and the black smoke rolling.
In addition to waiting for Taishi Ciji to capture Chang'an City and Xianyang City, Chutian is still waiting for the wind.
To set fire to burn the reed marsh, you need to observe the wind direction, otherwise the fire will burn to the Xia army.
Tens of thousands of Xia troops were responsible for setting fires. The flames splashed in the strong wind and spread everywhere. Tens of thousands of Qin troops who were ambushed among the reeds were affected!
No matter how elite a large army is, it cannot fight against the fire.
Zhou Yu defeated the Song army in Jingzhou by relying on the fire attack.
The Xia army did not step into the reeds at all, but set fire on fire!
"withdraw!"
Li Jue and Guo Si were in ambush and were frightened. They knew that they could not put out the fire at all, so they fled out of the reed marsh in a hurry.
Li Yuanhao, who was responsible for attacking the Xia army, was also severely injured by a fire and fled in a hurry.
The entire reed marsh turned into a sea of fire, and the fire spread, and the Wei River reflected the flames brought by the raging fire.
At least thousands of ambushed Qin soldiers were burned to death by the fire because they had no time to escape from the dense reeds and let out shrill screams.
The main force of the Qin army where Lu Bu and Wang Yun were located had to transfer positions to avoid the choking smoke.
If it weren't for Wang Jian, Meng Tian, Li Xin and others setting up isolation belts in advance, the fire might even affect their army.
Although they didn't care about Lu Bu's losses, they valued their subordinates very much.
"The fire burned Weibei, and I guess King Xia has calculated the direction of the wind."
Li Si could clearly feel that the wind direction was beneficial to the Xia army. When the Xia army was in the upper wind position, he could use fire attacks at will.
With a fire, thousands of people were killed and tens of thousands were injured. The morale of the Qin army became even lower and the formation was disintegrating.
Compared with direct casualties, the morale blow brought by the fire attack is even more deadly.
"Don't talk about the mission of being a marquis, and one general has achieved success and has been undone. In the world, tens of millions of people have died in the chaotic world."
Jia Xu couldn't help but sigh when he saw the fire turbulently and screams from the fire.
Li Si said: "Wenhe, I didn't expect you to feel so emotional, and I thought you didn't care about the lives of these soldiers at all."
"No matter how emotional it is, the price you should pay must be paid."
"Ahem cough cough..."
Li Jue and Guo Si led their troops out of dust and escaped from the reeds, and thick smoke entered their throats and kept coughing.
The Xia army used the wind direction to burn the reeds with fire. The Qin army's envisioned ambush strategy was completely bankrupt.
"Damn, they actually use fire attack!"
"Our ambush must have been discovered by the Xia army!"
"Xia Army, Xia Army is coming!"
Li Jue and Guo Si had no time to react, and a large number of Xia army troops took advantage of the Qin army's formation being disrupted by the fire and pressed towards the Qin army!
Chu Tian has the highest cavalry bonus at present, while Wu Qi has the strongest infantry bonus at present, and the two cooperate with each other!
The iron cavalry was scattered, and King Arthur led the round table knights to attack Li Jue and Guo Si who escaped from the reeds!
Li Jue and Guo Si had no way to retreat, either the reeds spreading in the fire, the bottomless Wei River, or the King Arthur's Round Table Knights and Western Knights. Li Jue and Guo Si had to choose one way!
Chu Tian captured a group of Western knights and organized into King Arthur's legion. So far, there are less than two thousand knights left in the Knights and hundreds of knights on the Round Table.
Even so, the Knights, mainly chain mail and plate armor, launched a charge when the morale of the remaining soldiers of Li Jue and Guo Si were sluggish and the formation was chaotic, and directly defeated the remaining soldiers of Li Jue and Guo Si!
Li Jue and Guo Si were crowded between the fire and the river. Many soldiers in Xiliang fell into the Wei River and were washed away by the river.
King Arthur held the holy sword in his hand and killed hundreds of people. The Knights of the Round Table then harvested, killed thousands of people, completely defeating Li Jue and Guo Si!
On the front, the Wei Wuzhang Army commanded by Wu Qi gathered about 20,000 Wei Wuzhangs as the main force to attack Lu Bu and Wang Yun's central army!
The Women's Legion was all out, and the Jianyan crossbowman commander Liang Hongyu shot crossbow arrows, and a round of crossbow arrows, killing hundreds of Qin troops.
Fan Lihua's Western Liang Iron Cavalry and Mulan's Iron Eagle Scouts galloped out, and Mu Guiying's infantry armored heavy infantry followed Wei Wushou to advance.
In the cold summer, the Shenji Camp was promoted by firearms, and Li Xiuning's Detachment of Women was responsible for providing melee protection for the Shenji Camp.
Monk Wanyan Chen had a ferocious expression and was also very crazy. He led the Zhongxiao Army and the Heli Army to take the initiative to get into the battle.
In addition, there were a large number of low-level troops dispatched from Jizhou, Bingzhou and Yuzhou, with about 300,000, and used the tactics of the sea of people to attack the Qin army.
Chu Tian rarely uses human sea tactics, but in special times, it is not impossible to use human sea tactics.
The advantage of low-level troops is that the recruitment cycle is short and there is no upper limit. Moreover, counties with low-level troops can be recruited. Therefore, after the Battle of Liaoxi, high-level troops suffered a lot of losses, so Chu Tian could only use the power of low-level troops to pacify Guanzhong.
The low-level troops are not weak in Chu Tian or under the large bonus of Wu Qi and other military generals.
High-level troops take the initiative to launch an attack, and low-level troops keep up.
"Those who fight back the Xia army will be crowned king!"
The blue veins on Lu Bu's forehead became thicker and longer. He ordered the entire army to attack. He personally led the Bingzhou wolf cavalry, the Iron Eagle Ruiz, and the Sanhe Cavalry to launch an attack!
As a cavalry general, Lu Bu's bonus to cavalry is not low, so he wants to give it a try!
Lu Bu’s target is the Zhongxiao Army of Monk Wanyan Chen. Find the Wanyan Chen’s right, and Fang Tian’s painting halberd has a full blow!
Monk Wanyan Chen was caught off guard and could only use a gun to attack him, his figure shaking!
The two horses clashed, and Monk Wanyan Chen was almost killed instantly by Lu Bu!
During the war in western Liaoning, Monk Wanyan Chen was severely injured by the red cannon, and his force decreased permanently. His personal force was far from Lu Bu's opponent.
After the battle between Zhongxiao Army and Heli Hejun, the army had less than half of its troops. They were attacked by Iron Eagle Reeders, Sanhe Cavalry, and Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry and were soon defeated.
"Xia Army, that's all!"
Lu Bu was in desperate situation and entered an unparalleled state, sweeping over the surrounding cavalry!
But what Lu Bu didn't expect was that the main force he relied on to defeat the Xia army was actually mostly the elite left by Lao Qin.
If Lao Qin was commanding the Qin army, Chu Tian had just ended the Liaoxi War, he would definitely avoid confrontation with Lao Qin.
But the current commander is Lu Bu, so Chu Tian dared to launch the Guanzhong War immediately after the Battle of Liaoxi.
In the rear, more than 80,000 low-level cavalrymen came.
Chu Tian wants to use the human sea tactics to kill Lu Bu.
Lu Bu relied on his personal force and the speed of the Red Rabbit Horse.
Chu Tian didn't believe that under his terrible bonus, Lu Bu could kill tens of thousands of low-level cavalry.
"It seems that there is no need to use the Red Cannon."
Chu Tian brought back the level 10 firearms and red cannons from the battlefield in western Liaoning, but it was not useful because there was no need to use them.
The main function of the Red Barbarian Cannon is to destroy the enemy's army and to dampen morale, but the Qin army is now quite chaotic.
The Xia army had no time to drag the Red Barbarian cannons forward, and Lu Bu was defeated.
Zhang Xiu led a team of Western Liang Iron Cavalry and low-level cavalry to stay in the camp. When he saw Lu Bu taking the initiative to stalkeleton and attacking the Xia army, he actually defeated the Zhongxiao army of Monk Wanyan Chen.
He couldn't help but hesitate to look at Jia Xu.
Zhang Xiu didn't know whether Lu Bu would win this battle.
I saw Jia Xu look at him.
Zhang Xiu hesitated for a while, and finally said to his subordinates: "Lu Bu intends to murder the old master and use eggs to hit the stone. We should abandon the darkness and turn to the light and surrender to the King of Xia!"
Zhang Xiu's subordinates were in an uproar. They did not expect that when Lu Bu was in a rebellion, Zhang Xiu chose to turn against Lu Bu, betray Lu Bu, and surrender to King Xia.
Many legions may not be loyal to the monarch. Sometimes they trust their generals more, especially Lu Bu has just taken office, with insufficient prestige and people's hearts not stable.
After Zhang Xiu decided to surrender, his subordinates followed the general and mutiny.
"How dare you betray the court?"
Wang Yun and other imperial military supervisors wanted to curb Zhang Xiu.
