When the Japanese pirate turned his head and looked behind him, he found that not everyone had come up. Only a few people had reached the top of the mountain, and the rest had died on the way to the top. Of course, there were more than two thousand people who were cautiously climbing towards the top of the mountain. When climbing, women and old people are not as strong as young men. Others come up to take a big breath, and then put down the things they are carrying behind them.
The ninja was very surprised. When he looked carefully, he saw that these people were all carrying something behind their backs. He picked it up and saw that it was a bamboo tube! I shook it with my hand, and there was a sound of water coming from inside! The ninja opened the bamboo tube, smelled it with his nose, and his eyes widened instantly, "Oh no!"
"Shoot arrows!" Zhao Xuanyi gave the order, and saw the Qilin Guards above him draw the Sky Wing Bow, draw the rockets, and shoot thousands of rockets towards the entire mountain road where the Japanese pirates were walking!
Thousands of rockets fell rapidly from high altitude. This scene was like a divine fire in the world. When these rockets landed in the woods, the woods instantly burst into flames!
The Japanese pirates who were climbing the mountain were all swallowed up by the fire. Only then did they discover one thing. In the morning, the Ming army gave each of them a bamboo tube and told them that it contained water. When they saw the fire, they took off the bamboo tube one after another, opened the lid and thought about it. Put out this fire!
But what they didn’t know was that the bamboo tube contained not water at all, but tung oil! At this moment, there are about three thousand Japanese pirates who died because of the trap. The bamboo tubes on their bodies had been broken long ago. After all the rockets fell, a blazing fire broke out in the woods immediately, and there were still these idiots. The Japanese pirates poured bamboo tubes on the fire, and the fire burned even more vigorously!
For a time, the fire in the woods was difficult to suppress, and nearly two thousand Japanese pirates were swallowed up by the fire. There were miserable screams in the woods, and there were also Japanese pirates running around in the fire. They no longer knew what to do, so they could only run around, covering their bodies with blood. The fire is already difficult to put out!
The fire at this moment is like an angry beast, constantly devouring the trees in the forest, as well as the Japanese pirates. As long as they can burn objects, they are his prey. He plunders greedily, devours them tyrannically, and does not let them go. Any goal!
The ninjas in the woods could only watch them being burned alive, but were unable to lend a helping hand. As the fire grew bigger and bigger, other pine trees were also ignited. With the breeze, the fire was moving north, and for a while There were various crackling sounds in the woods, and all the traps were swallowed up by the fire, and they were all useless!
Zhao Xuanyi sat on horseback, looking at the mountain fire, and smiled, "This hell fire is so brilliant!"
Zhu Wenyu walked over, "It's majestic and reminds me of the corn roasting scene back then!"
"Hahaha!" Zhao Xuanyi laughed loudly after hearing this. "When the fire burns out, we will rush up immediately. Once we cross this mountain, let's see what else is behind them?"
The fire burned very fast. After all, it was an entire forest. The fire not only destroyed all the structures in the forest, but also melted the ice and snow on the ground. The white snow turned into transparent water droplets, which slowly evaporated with the temperature!
The fire burned for an hour and a half, and the thick smoke could not be dispersed. It enveloped the entire forest. The fire continued on the left and right sides of the forest, while the middle part had been burned to ashes. It could be seen when blown by the strong wind. Black land!
"Charge!" Zhao Xuanyi shouted!
"Come on...!" Tang Tianli shouted and rushed forward.
"Brothers, kill...!" Sun Yan led five thousand Qilin Guards and immediately rushed to the mountain!
When Tang Tianli and the others rushed into the woods, they felt that the whole forest was very warm, and the surrounding air was very warm. Apart from the fact that the horses' feet felt a little hot, there was no other harm!
"Charge with me!" Tang Tianli led the Qilin Guards to the top of the mountain in one breath. When he saw the enemy retreating in the woods, Tang Tianli was like a hunter who saw his prey. He charged directly down the mountain on horseback, and the Miao knife in his hand turned into a spear [ Phew! 】 Directly pierced the chest of a ninja, and then swung it hard, and the body hit the big tree!
At this moment, Sun Yan also led the Qilin Guards to rush down. The woods immediately turned into a battlefield. The mountains in front were still burning, and behind the mountains, it became a bloody battlefield!
After the five thousand Qilin Guards charged, Liu Bo led 30,000
The border guards also rushed forward. Although the Qilin Guards were the vanguard every time, they were not willing to succumb to others. They rushed to the top of the mountain and saw a happy fight in the woods!
Liu Bo laughed loudly, "Brothers, don't panic, I'm here to help you! Brothers, kill me!" Liu Bo led the army down the mountain. More than 30,000 people were like a black flood, sweeping this The entire back of the mountain was washed away!
At this moment, the ninja army and Japanese pirate soldiers in the woods have been beaten with nowhere to hide. Seeing more and more enemies, they have given up resistance and started to turn around and run away. However, they seem to have forgotten that the ones rushing up are all cavalry!
After noon, Zhao Xuanyi, Li Hanyan, Zhu Wenyu and others had arrived at the mountain peak. Seeing the bodies of fifty Japanese pirates at the foot of the mountain, Zhao Xuanyi nodded with satisfaction. After waiting for so many days and receiving so many prisoners, he finally Capture this mountain!
At this moment, Zhu Wenyu's eyes were full of shock, his eyes were looking into the distance, his expression was very ugly, "Brother, look over there!"
"Ah?" Zhao Xuanyi turned his head and looked in the direction Zhu Wenyu pointed. It was better not to look. When he saw it, his eyes widened! I saw that to the north, in the direction of Zianzhong and Izumo, about seven kilometers away from me, there was a large military camp! .
The white tents and black soldiers seemed to be densely packed and countless. Looking to the left and right, there was no end in sight. It was estimated that there were many people. Zhao Xuanyi took a deep breath and then smiled, "This welcoming scene is quite enough." Our face!"
Li Hanyan looked carefully, "Looking at the size of this camp, there seem to be hundreds of thousands of people!"
"You want to beat me with the same number of people as us? What a dream!" Zhao Xuanyi snorted coldly.
"It looks like they are ready for a big fight here!" Zhu Wenyu said.
"After all, this is the last territory of the Yamano family! He has to fight!" Zhao Xuanyi looked at Shen Wei beside him, "Order everyone to set up camp safely around the foot of the mountain! Cut down all the trees on the mountain for heating and cooking!"
"Yes!" Shen Wei nodded and said.
At this moment, in the Japanese tent, a disgraced ninja ran in and knelt on the ground, "General Qi, we...failed!"
"What? How is it possible? There are so many traps in the mountains and forests, how did they break through them?" Yamana Taro shouted loudly.
"They didn't crack it at all, so they burned it with fire!" The ninja told the whole battle process, and the generals of the three major families were dumbfounded!
"Where are they now?" Masaru Sasaki asked.
"Set up camp at the foot of the mountain!"
"Hmph! You didn't rush over. You're not a fool. It looks like this opponent is difficult to deal with!"
Kira Harumasa smiled slightly, "Young man, what happens next is up to you. You can avenge the grudge you committed last time at Akamon Pass now!"
Sasaki Masaru shook his head, "This is the territory of the Yamana family. I don't dare to direct this important battle at will. If we lose, I can't bear the responsibility! So let General Yamana do it himself!"
Although Sasaki Masaken's words were a bit sarcastic, they were just like Yamana Taro's thoughts. This is his last land. If he loses, he will have nothing, so he must take action himself. Even if he loses, he will have no complaints. Regret, I would not be at ease if it were left in the hands of others!
Thinking of this, Yamana Taro slowly stood up, "Thank you both for your kindness, but I have to do this final battle myself! You two only need to lead your subordinates and cheer me on from the sidelines!"
"You're welcome, General Yamana. This battle is related to the fate of Japan. We will do our best to help you. If you need anything, just ask and we will do our best!" Kira Haru said with a smile.
Yamana Taro looked at Kira Harumasa, said nothing, turned around and walked out of the tent!
Sasaki Masaken looked at Kira Harumasa, his eyes were very complicated, but he didn't say anything, and then he got up and left!
After coming outside, a ninja in black came to Sasaki Masaken and said, "General, what should we do next?"
"Is it even necessary to think about it?
? Of course, I want to help the Yamana family! "
"Don't you have to wait for Kira Harumasa's reinforcements?"
"The Kira family? Huh! It's good if they don't help. Immediately order all soldiers to prepare for battle! This war is inevitable!" Masaki Sasaki ordered immediately!
"yes!"
At this moment, Zhao Xuanyi was in the Chinese army's tent. Zhu Wenyu pointed at the map, "It looks like the opponent has already set up a battle line, reaching Izumo in the west and Pianzhong in the east!"
"It looks like this. Yamana Taro is deploying all his troops in a long front. If he wants to get through, he may directly tear this front apart!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
Li Hanyan walked over and looked at the map carefully, "What if we divide our forces to snipe?"
"Daughter-in-law, what do you mean?"
"For example, if I lead the border guards and go to Izumo alone, no matter how many troops there are, I will just break it. In that case, his entire line of defense will be destroyed, and then the battlefield in front of you will be much easier! "
After Zhao Xuanyi saw it, he couldn't help but frowned, "We can't divide our troops yet. We don't know how many troops the other side has. If we simply divide our troops to attack on both sides, if they send heavy troops to intercept you, I will be entangled with them and unable to get away." , you will be in trouble!"
"And this is their territory this time. They are familiar with the terrain. We don't know where the traps are. It might be inappropriate to send troops rashly!"
"What's your plan, husband?"
Zhao Xuanyi shook his head, "Don't worry, we are not the ones who are anxious now. Let's see how the other party will move first!" Zhao Xuanyi said and looked at Shen Wei, "Send out scouts immediately and report every half hour. If there is an accident, send out a flare immediately." !」
"Yes!" Shen Wei nodded and said.
Zhao Xuanyi looked at the route on the map, his eyes full of seriousness, "Taro Yamana can't wait too long. He knows that I will definitely seize his territory, and he has no other way. The most important thing now is to see how he protects it." This is my last position!"
"But the opponent has a lot of troops!" Li Hanyan said.
"Strength? I, the Qilin Guard, are not afraid of having more troops! I am afraid that they will not attack. In contrast, when it comes to weaknesses, we only have one weakness now, and that is food and grass. Our food and grass can last for three months at most. If these three If we can’t grab their food for months, we will have to wait to starve to death!”
"This...?" Li Hanyan's face was filled with worry after hearing this!
Zhao Xuanyi patted Li Hanyan's arm, "Don't worry so much. I've always wanted to try how delicious their roasted birds in Kyoto are! Within a month, I will definitely enter Kyoto!"
"Burning bird? Is it a kind of bird?" Li Hanyan asked.
"Actually, they are just chickens, but their names are different from ours!" Zhao Xuanyi looked at Zhu Wenyu, "Brother Seven, what do you want to say?"
Zhu Wenyu took a deep breath, "At this moment, the opponent has set up a formation. No matter what strategy the opponent uses, this battle is inevitable. I suggest that we also open the front line, which can at least act as a deterrent. Once the opponent divides their troops into several places, , we can also counterattack as soon as possible, so as not to rush to send troops when the time comes, which would be a bit late!"
Zhao Xuanyi nodded, "Seventh brother's suggestion is correct. Brother Shen, immediately ask the Far East Army to extend the front line to Iwami. In this way, if the opponent wants to pass through Izumo to encircle and attack us, we will also You can prepare on the spot!"
"Yes!" Shen Wei immediately sent the order!
Zhao Xuanyi looked at the map, then took a deep breath, "Let's see how Yamana Taro makes his move!"
"What if he doesn't take action?" Li Hanyan asked.
"If he doesn't move within three days, I will launch an attack. I don't have that much food and grass to waste with them!" Zhao Xuanyi gritted his teeth and thought to himself, if he had enough food and grass, he would be able to face these miscellaneous soldiers. Play them to death!
After they dispersed, Zhao Xuanyi came to Yamamoto Sakura's tent, and Yamamoto Sakura was also watching with a map. Seeing Zhao Xuanyi coming, Yamamoto stood up. Zhao Xuanyi waved his hand and motioned for Yamamoto Sakura to sit down. "To Yamamoto Sakura." What do you think about this matter, Taro?"
Yamamoto Sakura didn't hide anything, "I guess he will take action first, after all, he has no way out!"
