346 The Sea of ??Fire(1/2)
"That's it!"
The old beggar had matured and matured. He sized up the situation and looked at the terrain. He felt that it should be OK. He expected that the King of Shaozhou and most of the remaining soldiers had fallen into the "urn".
"withdraw!"
The old beggar screamed secretly, turned around, and ran quickly.
However, at this time, the old beggar heard the sound of remnant soldiers screaming from another direction, shouting to be beaten and killed.
At the same time, this young man yelled loudly: "King Shaozhou, traitor, please die quickly..."
"not good!"
The old beggar paused for a moment and vaguely understood what was going on. He was afraid that this person would mess up Zhu Xiaozi's plan, so he changed his direction and ran away immediately.
"Strong man, stop!"
The old beggar heard the voice and recognized his position. He rushed over and roared. He had already rushed to the man. He reached out with one hand and swooped down like an eagle's claw. With one move, he snatched the sword from the man's hand.
Just now, this man had killed dozens of remaining soldiers with that long sword.
It can be described as extraordinary skill.
But the old beggar took away his weapon with one move and made a judgment.
"Old thief, give me back my sword!"
The young man's face was covered with blood, but it was not his, but that of the remaining soldiers. He seemed to be possessed by a demon, and despite the old beggar's superb tactics, he actually came to kill him.
"This place is dangerous, please leave first."
The old beggar made up his mind, and while the man was coming, he reached out with one hand and grabbed a certain position on the man's shoulder. The man was immediately unable to move, like a sculpture.
"Walk!"
The old beggar shouted loudly, held the man in one hand, identified the direction, and quickly ran out of the formation.
Jiangzhou Nancheng Tower.
Zhu Xiuyuan and others said nothing, remained motionless, and quietly stared at the thick fog.
The howls of the remnant soldiers, the shouts of fighting and killing, etc., could be heard vaguely, through the thick fog, but not a single corner of the remnant soldiers' clothes could be seen.
Waiting anxiously.
Suddenly, somewhere in the thick fog, a whistle sounded.
It was low, yet extremely penetrating. Zhu Xiuyuan heard it clearly and unmistakably!
"My benefactor! Master, he has already taken care of it!" Yan Dashan gasped for air, turned back suddenly, and stared at Zhu Xiuyuan with his big copper eyes.
The sound of the trumpet is the agreed signal.
Explain that "the prey has been put into the urn".
"Send the order, beat the drum, light the fuse!" Zhu Xiuyuan took a deep breath and gave the order loudly.
The messenger had already held the drumstick like a rolling pin in his hand. After Zhu Xiuyuan gave the order, he immediately beat the drum and conveyed an order.
On the outskirts of the position, in the thick fog, a group of people were ambushed in four places.
"The drum is sounding, hurry up, light the fuse, and then retreat, retreat one mile away!" Someone shouted.
The instructions given to people in these four places are very similar.
They immediately lit torches. More than a hundred people, holding more than a hundred torches, burned a long row of fuses!
The lead was made of finger-thick hemp rope, wrapped in black gunpowder, buried in the sand, and covered with oil paper from top to bottom to prevent moisture.
Bah!
Bah!
The panicking sound appeared, and as the fuse began to burn, sparks flashed and puffs of smoke rose.
"Withdraw, drop the torch, and retreat quickly!"
Someone shouted at the top of his lungs and ran away first.
The heavy fog enveloped them, so they just ran in the opposite direction. Although they couldn't see clearly what was in front of them, it was better than staying where they were.
In the position.
The King of Shaozhou was protected by the remnant soldiers, and just then the assassin appeared. Although he failed, he was still in shock.
Suddenly, the King of Shaozhou and others heard the sound of a drum, which was very rapid and came from the direction of Jiangzhou City.
The Shaozhou King's figure suddenly became firm, and his two sword-shaped eyebrows were squeezed together.
"No, I've fallen into a trap. Give me the order to leave this place quickly and rush forward..."
The King of Shaozhou had been in battle for a long time and had a strong sense of danger. Although he didn't know what the plan was, no matter what it was, it must be right to leave here first.
It has to be said that the bravery of the soldiers under King Shaozhou is comparable to that of Liang's cavalry, which is not unrelated to his own talent.
Sniffing out dangers from extremely small things, or from two seemingly unrelated things, is exactly what King Shaozhou is good at.
It has proven successful over and over again and has allowed him to escape from death numerous times on the battlefield.
But this time...
boom!
In the distance, there was suddenly a violent explosion, the sound was like muffled thunder.
The place was filled with thick fog, and King Shaozhou could only hear sounds but could not see anything.
His heart suddenly skipped a beat, and a thought came to his mind: "There is indeed a scam!"
However, before he could make any arrangements, just half a breath later, the sound of a thunderous explosion came again.
Not just one or two sounds.
But three sounds, ten sounds, hundreds of sounds, superimposed exponentially!
Moreover, that kind of sound did not come from one place, but erupted from all directions, one after another!
Surrounded them all.
The sound of muffled thunder suddenly appeared. The sound of muffled thunder increased hundreds of times and came from all directions.
It’s so shocking!
This sudden shocking noise was hundreds or thousands of times scarier than the thunder in the sky.
Many of the remnant soldiers were paralyzed on the ground, lying on their knees, at a loss what to do.
The King of Shaozhou was also spinning wildly. The violent explosion was so loud that his ears were burning with pain, as if he had been hit by two big slaps at the same time.
Not only did his ears hurt, but it even stretched deep inside his head, as if a thread was being pulled inside. Although King Shaozhou stabilized his body and did not collapse, veins appeared on his forehead.
Moreover, he couldn't hear any sound.
The soldiers around them covered their ears, opened their mouths, and had distorted faces, but no sound could be heard from them.
King Shaozhou shook his head vigorously, trying to clear his head. However, it didn't help, and he shook his head more and more, becoming more and more dizzy.
The only sensation comes from the feet, to be precise, the soles of the feet.
The earth is shaking!
Suddenly, a fire burst into flames!
Through the thick fog, the blazing red light was faintly visible.
King Shaozhou squinted his eyes and looked intently, only to see that the fire was getting brighter and brighter, getting closer and closer, reaching a height of three or two feet. He seemed to feel the slightest heat on his face.
Moreover, this kind of fire came from all directions, surrounding them, and King Shaozhou and the others seemed to be in a ring of fire.
Perhaps because of the light of the fire, the temperature here rose sharply, dissipating the fog, and suddenly clearing up the sight.
When the fog dissipated and the scene in the distance could be seen clearly, King Shaozhou froze.
I saw continuous explosions in the land in the distance, flying earth and rocks more than ten feet high, accompanied by bursts of thick smoke, and a smell of sulfur.
Moreover, the continuous explosions were so closely spaced that three people could probably pass through them side by side.
Such a dense explosion caused the earth and rocks to be thrown up and shot each other. The scene was almost like annihilation and was very terrifying.
Also, the continuous explosions are gradually approaching Shaozhou King, forming a circle and gradually surrounding him at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The most important thing is, if it explodes, it will explode, and it will be accompanied by flames that soar into the sky.
It soared three or two feet into the sky, burning fiercely. It was really a vast ocean of flames.
It was also like a high wall of fire, spreading vertically and making people's scalp numb.
Moreover, the flames had already covered the whole city without any gaps. It was impossible to escape despite the fire.
The flame followed the footsteps of the explosion, pressing closer and closer, encircling the circle in the middle smaller and smaller.
The remnant soldiers who were unable to escape were first blown up into the sky by a violent explosion, and their bodies were broken into several large pieces. However, the torn flesh and blood was immediately swallowed up by the flames, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Even those who were lucky enough not to be blown up were instantly ignited by the flames that shot up into the sky, with nowhere to hide. In the blink of an eye, they were burned down to nothing more than a human-shaped torch, no different from the burning straw.
