Yeluqi's order stunned all the Jin soldiers.
What order did the general give just now? ignition?
how? Why do you think the fire on the mountainside is not big enough?
Just put on another fire and grill it on both sides! Half of the good stuff is burnt, and the other half is undercooked?
However, there were a very small number of smart people who understood the true intention of Yeluqi's order, and they were busy lighting fire sticks and setting fire to the top of the mountain.
General Yelu's intention was that they took the initiative to set fire to create an isolation zone on the top of the mountain.
As long as all the trees around them are burned to the ground, when the fire on the mountainside burns up, there will be nothing to burn, and they will be able to escape.
It has to be said that Yeluqi is extremely smart, and the method he came up with is also an extremely clever one.
Unfortunately, the distance between the mountainside and the top of the mountain is still too close.
If the fire had started from the foot of the mountain, they might have been able to escape.
But now, the time left for them is too short after all.
In a fire, burning flames is certainly fatal, but the threat of death from choking smoke cannot be ignored either.
The fire on the mountainside was getting closer and closer to them. The thick smoke choked them and they coughed repeatedly. Many Jin soldiers even fainted from the choking.
At the top of the mountain, they had just ignited a forest, but this also made them lose more and more space to hide.
Now for them, the fire is really attacking from two sides.
More and more Jin soldiers were choked to death by the thick smoke and rolled on the ground burned by the fire.
There was also a small group of Jin soldiers who fell into despair. In desperation, they simply jumped off the cliff.
Everyone on the left and right is going to die. Instead of being burned to death or choked to death, it would be easier to jump off the cliff.
Yeluqi's prestige among the Jin army was extremely high and he was deeply loved by the soldiers.
Even in critical moments of life and death, there were still dozens of personal guards guarding Yeluqi to protect him from the burning flames.
However, the clothes on their bodies were roasted until they began to carbonize, and their skin was burned with blisters. It was obvious that they could not hold on for much longer.
Of the three thousand gold army, only a few hundred people were still standing at this time.
Seeing the fire burning further before their eyes, I am afraid that in a short time, all of them will be buried in the sea of fire.
At this time, Yeluqi was also choked by the thick smoke and coughed repeatedly, with mucus and tears flowing from his nose.
Yeluqi suddenly felt a heat in his heart, and the next moment he coughed violently, and he couldn't help spitting out a large mouthful of blood.
Clang!
The next moment, Yeluqi couldn't help but draw out the long sword from his waist, and just wiped it on his neck. Blood spattered everywhere, and he fell to the ground.
Before he died, he reluctantly uttered a curse: "I...general...curse...you...will not...die well!"
When the guards surrounding Yeluqi saw that General Yelu was dead, they all cried out in grief:
"General!"
"General!"
"General!"
Next, these dozens of personal guards followed Yeluqi, drew out their swords from their waists, and wiped their necks.
…
Not to mention that the three thousand Jin army was drowned by the fire, but the two hundred thousand Jin army were all shocked when they saw the Yanshan fire!
Oh my God! Something big happened!
The sky is falling!
Their general led three thousand soldiers and chased the Xia army all the way into Yanshan!
At this time, a fierce fire broke out in Yanshan. I wonder if this fire was set by Daikin? Or was it set by Daxia soldiers?
If they had set it off themselves, those Xia troops who set the fire would surely die.
But if it was Daxia soldiers who set the fire, wouldn't their general also be burned to death in Yanshan Mountain?
Thinking of this, all the Jin Army soldiers took a breath of cold air.
At this time, all their luggage had been packed.
Next, all the generals of the Jin Kingdom gathered their troops and rushed to Yanshan quickly.
Not long after, they arrived at the foot of Yanshan Mountain.
Then they found 3,000 panicked war horses at the foot of Yanshan Mountain, but they did not see General Yelu and the 3,000 vanguard troops.
Seeing this scene, all the generals couldn't help but feel cold in their hearts.
Their general and three thousand cavalry are all on top of Yanshan Mountain!
I'm afraid they are in danger!
If the general is gone, what will they do?
Can they still return to their hometown on the grassland?
For a moment, everyone was in a dilemma and panicked.
Some generals suggested sending people to rescue the general, but the other generals unanimously turned their backs on him.
Now the entire Yanshan Mountain is on fire, and they are all suffering from the burning pain even though they are far away.
With such a huge fire, no one could even get close, let alone rushing in to save others.
What can you do to save people? Should I save my life or my mouth?
Finally, after some deliberation, these Jin Army generals made a difficult decision. They decided to retreat immediately.
This is actually a helpless move.
With such a fire, their General Yelu had no chance of surviving.
As for the fire in Yanshan, it would take at least two or three days to finally extinguish it.
They didn't dare to delay any longer. If they left a moment later, their situation would be in danger.
In this case, they naturally did not dare to delay any longer.
Therefore, they finally decided to discard the body of General Yelu and evacuate quickly.
…
At the same time, the entire capital looked at the raging fire burning in Yanshan Mountain.
What happened last night has spread throughout the capital.
Mr. Jia Sanye of Ningguo Mansion quietly led hundreds of people out of the city last night and burned down the Jinguo granary.
Now Yanshan is on fire. I am afraid that Jia Sanye and others fled to Yanshan and were set on fire by the Jin army.
I wonder how Mr. Jia San is doing now?
I'm afraid it's more dangerous than bad... After all, how could such a big fire survive?
At this moment, news of the entire Jin army's retreat spread quickly.
As a result, the people in the entire capital cheered and prayed for Mr. Jia in their hearts.
The so-called strong wind knows the strong grass, and the rough wind knows the honest minister.
When the soldiers of the Kingdom of Jin came over, all the civil and military ministers of the dynasty were helpless, and many elders were even willing to betray their country to seek peace. Only Master Jia stood up.
How could such a good man die like this?
After receiving the news, Emperor Chongkang ordered Wang Ziteng to send people to target the retreating Jin army, and at the same time ordered the defenders on each line of defense to inflict heavy losses on the Jin army.
In addition, a special forbidden army was sent to Yanshan to investigate Jia Huan's life and death.
If you are alive, you want to see people, if you are dead, you want to see corpses!
…
At this time, everyone in the Jia Mansion also received the news.
The six girls, Qingwen, Caiyun, Xiaohong, Xiaojixiang, Xiangling and Yuanyang, all cried because of the pear blossoms and the rain, and their hearts were broken.
When Aunt Zhao heard the news, she cried until she lost her voice.
After hearing this, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but fell backwards and fainted. (End of chapter)
