Chapter 82 Burning the Mountain (1)
Chapter 82: Burning Mountain (1)
However, Huang Zhong led the vanguard to go first and carefully investigated along the way. But when he saw something suspicious, he stopped the army and investigated carefully. He confirmed that there was no danger, so he continued to move forward. Therefore, he walked very slowly along the way. Ma Chao of Yu Zhongjun wanted to rush forward several times and lead his troops and horses to move forward quickly.
This time, Huang Zhong stopped the vanguard again and took a spy to explore the road ahead. After receiving the report, the central army stopped immediately. At that time, Ma Chao said: "Why is this old man so ink? Why would you let me go forward and replace the old general Huang, and you will definitely ask the vanguard to arrive at the foot of Dingjun Mountain within two days."
Looking back, Zhao Yun lowered his head and thought, Xue Bing was calling the doctor. "Old Wang! Something is wrong with my shoulder recently! Please take a look!" The doctor named Wang hurried over and said with a smile: "General, take off your armor, please take a look for it."
Xue Bing then helped him remove his armor with his personal soldiers, and then asked Wang Langzhong to see his shoulders. However, he did not notice that Ma Chao was calling him there.
"Zihan! Zilong!" Ma Chao was angry when he saw that the two of them were busy with their own affairs, and no one paid attention to him. He shouted: "When will our army be like this? When will we reach the foot of Dingjun Mountain?"
Seeing that Ma Chao was annoyed, Zhao Yun said, "Meng Qi should not be anxious. This was because Xiahou Yuan had been stationed in Dingjun Mountain for a long time, afraid that he would set up an ambush along the road. He then was cautious when moving. Although he was a little slow, he would be avoided from being trapped."
When Ma Chao heard Zhao Yun's words, he stopped talking. He just walked around and made Xue Bing look dizzy. At this time, the doctor had already helped Xue Bing to look at the wound and said to Xue Bing: "The general's wound has begun to heal. I think he will be healed in a few days! But the general is always wearing armor these days and grinding the wound, so he feels uncomfortable!" After hearing this, Xue Bing thanked the doctor and turned to Ma Chao who was walking in front of him and said: "Meng Qi, don't leave, I look dizzy!"
After pausing, seeing that Ma Chao was still walking, he said, "What's so anxious about Meng Qi? Xiahou Yuan stationed his army on Dingjun Mountain and would not leave suddenly. Meng Qi was still afraid that there would be no war to fight?"
After hearing this, Ma Chao stopped and said to Xue Bing: "Zihan said so much, and he was not afraid that Xiahou Yuan would suddenly run away." So he sat down on the side, but after not sitting for a moment, he got up again and looked forward to inquire from time to time. When Xue Bing saw it, he could only shake his head and smile bitterly.
After a while, the army moved forward again. Then, after a while, they stopped again. In this way, they had been traveling straight for seven days for three days. When the army reached the foot of Dingjun Mountain, it had been half a month.
When the army reached the foot of the mountain, Zhao Yunyu observed the terrain of Dingjun Mountain and recruited generals to discuss it in the tent.
When Zhao Yun saw that all the generals arrived, he first said, "Xiahou Yuan occupied the dangerous mountain of Dingjun Mountain. The officials thought how should they deal with it?"
The generals in the tent looked at me, but I looked at you, but there was no good idea. Finally, Ma Chao said: "Just call at the foot of the mountain, and Xiahou Yuanding led his army down the mountain, and then he would decide the outcome."
Xue Bing said: "Xiahou Yuan is afraid that he can't stand it, but the people around him must make suggestions. What if Xiahou Yuan can't stand it and just wait for our army to be tired, and then he will fight to kill him down the mountain in one go?"
Ma Chao was speechless, only heard Huang Zhong say: "I see that there is also a mountain opposite Dingjun Mountain. How about we occupy this mountain and confront Xiahou Yuanyao?"
When everyone in the tent heard this, they all thought about the formation secretly. Finally, Zhao Yun said, "What the old general said is very much. Our army immediately set up the camp and rushed to the opposite mountain!" Then he ordered people to look forward to the opposite mountain and find out whether there were Cao's soldiers on the mountain. After a while, a spy rewarded him and said, "There are many flags on the opposite mountain, and they are all Cao's soldiers. But the mountain has been occupied by Cao's army!"
When all the generals heard this, they all sighed. Huang Zhong said, "Xiahou Yuan has been stationed here for a long time, and I think he has noticed the danger of the mountain. He is stationed. In this way, the two mountains will respond, and it will be even more difficult for us to win."
At this moment, Xue Bing smiled and said, "It's not the case! Xiahou Yuan stationed all the troops on the mountain, but it also made our army much more convenient." All the generals were surprised, and Zhao Yun asked, "Why did Zihan say this? Is there a plan to defeat the enemy?"
Xue Bing said: "There is no strategy to break the enemy, only a plan to burn the mountain!"
"Burning the mountain?" The generals were stunned when they heard this, and only Ma Dai said: "What General Xue said is the fire plan he used in front of Jiameng Pass?"
Before the other people could hear this, Ma Chao and Pang De changed their faces first. They saw their tens of thousands of forwards being burned clean. If they had known that Xue Bing would be a good player in using fire. Now, when they heard that he was about to set fire again, they felt that the surroundings were cold and sweating all over.
Xue Bing smiled and said, "It's already autumn, and it's the time when the wind is high and the things are dry. The two mountains are places where the trees are lush. Now the trees wither and burn when they encounter fire. We just need to light a handful of them, but we are afraid that the mountain will not burn? Besides, even if it can't burn, we can still add a handful of oil!"
Zhao Yun said: "However, Xiahou Yuan has been through a long battle formation, so why don't he beware of our fire attack?"
Xue Bing thought for a while and replied, "If you succeed or not, you will know if you fail, you can lead Cao's troops down the mountain. We will arrange a few more ambush troops, so we can win for a while!"
Zhao Yun thought about it and felt that even if this plan failed, he would not have any losses to his side. He said, "Since that's the case, we will use this fire attack plan. However, the weather is cool now, and even the big village of our army is full of dense forests. If this fire attack is not done, you must be careful not to wrap yourself in."
Xue Bing said: "I can reflect on myself. If I attack the fire, I must first make an isolation belt to avoid causing fire to burn my body!"
"Isolation belt?" Everyone was stunned when they heard this, but they didn't understand what Xue Bing said. Seeing that everyone didn't understand very well, Xue Bing was too lazy to explain, so he said, "You will know at the moment when you see it."
At this time, Huang Zhong said: "Since you have decided to attack the fire, what method should you use to drive the fire? If you start ignition from the foot of the mountain, you may be asked to prepare early. No matter how big the fire is, you may not burn the mountain."
Ma Dai said: "There are several stone machines and crossbows in the army. Could it be that General Xue wants to make these two objects cause fire?"
Xue Bing smiled and said, "That's right!"
When Huang Zhong heard this, he frowned and said, "I know those two things, but these two things can throw the fire up the mountain?"
Xue Bing said: "No! Although these two things are easy to carry and powerful, it is impossible to throw them to the top of the mountain!"
When the generals heard this, they frowned even more, and Zhao Yun said: "If this is the case, can you rush up the mountain?"
Xue Bing said: "No! This time I came out, I specially brought a new ammunition, but it was used just now."
Everyone asked hurriedly, "What?"
Xue Bing smiled but did not answer, and Ma Dai suddenly said, "Is it a poisonous gas bomb?" Xue Bing was stunned when she heard this and asked, "How can the general know?"
Ma Dai smiled and said, "When the Later Army inspected the food and supplies, I saw a soldier holding three altars without any effort. I was surprised and went forward to ask, so I learned about this thing."
Zhao Yun asked after hearing this, "What is that poisonous gas bomb? Where should Zi Han say that he should start by using this object to defeat the enemy?"
Seeing that everyone knew about it and looking at the look, it was obvious that if he didn't understand, these people would not let him go, so he replied: "Which poisonous gas bomb is just a can with herbs filled with several dead branches."
"That's it?" Everyone was surprised when they heard this. They didn't expect Xue Bingzhao to defeat the enemy, which was so simple.
"That's it!" Xue Bing smiled and shrugged his shoulders and said to everyone.
Zhao Yun said: "How can this thing break the enemy? I hope Zihan will say it in detail!"
Seeing that those people were still unwilling to let him go, Xue Bing had to say, "Okay! Okay! I will tell you in detail, so that you will not always ask me!" After a sudden break, he said, "I want to send the stone machine to the mountain to drop the oil bomb up the mountain, and then let the crossbow machine shoot the fire. Although these two objects cannot point the fire to the top of the mountain, they are almost the same when they shoot to the middle of the mountain. The fire will be burned in a short time with the oil bomb. At that time, the fire will be burned, and the fire will be burned on the mountain."
Speaking of this, Zhao Yun said: "However, a fire broke out in the middle of the mountain, and the mountain must be prepared early. How can Zi Han want to respond?"
Xue Bing smiled and said, "After the fire starts, use a stone machine to slap poisonous gas into the fire and throw it into the fire! The jar is broken and all the medicinal materials are placed in the fire. Everyone, can you stand the smoke and dust emitted when boiling the medicine?"
When everyone heard this, they could guess a little. When Xue Bing said something, his expression changed several times. At this time, Xue Bing said: "The medicinal materials placed in the poisonous gas bomb are the things I have discussed with many doctors. They are all burning when they encounter fire, and they can produce choking smoke and dust. With this smoke and dust, ordinary people must not rush to put out the fire, even if they want to open their eyes, they should not be able to faint from being smoked!" After saying that, he laughed loudly, as if the poisonous gas bomb had already smoky all of Xiahou Yuan's tens of thousands of troops fainted.
When everyone heard Xue Bing's words, they felt a cold body in their stool and said to themselves: "How can this guy think of such a vicious method? It's really bad for eight lifetimes to fight against the enemy."
Especially Ma Dai is the most serious. He suffered a lot. Now he listened to his words and made up his mind: "In the future, you will not be able to oppose Xue Bing no matter what!"
Everyone in the tent was silent and silent. After a while, Zhao Yun said, "Since that's the case, Yu Zihan will be held responsible for the fire. Let's discuss the ambush again. After all, if the fire burns the mountain, whether it is successful or not, Cao's soldiers will definitely be killed down the mountain. We need to plan carefully."
All the generals should be so, Huang Zhong said first: "We will first hide a military force and horse under the two mountains, and then we must leave a military force and horse behind to prepare for emergencies. In this way, it should be a complete solution."
Zhao Yun replied, "Good!" Then he ordered, "General Ma Chao led two thousand troops to lie beneath Dingjun Mountain. If the plan is completed, lead the troops to kill him. If it is not done, just shoot him with a bow and crossbow!" Then he said to Pang De: "General Pang also leads two thousand troops to lie beneath the opposite mountain, just like General Ma. If the plan is completed, lead the troops to lie beneath him. If it is not done, just shoot him with a bow and crossbow!" Zhao Yun led the army this time, and he had two thousand crossbowmen under him, and distributed one thousand to Pang De and Ma Chao each, and assisted one thousand infantry.
Then he said, "General Huang and I led our troops to support us. If there is no mountain burning, we will lead our troops to reinforce which mountain. If both mountains have not burned, we will lead our troops to attack the opposite mountain and take down the mountain with all our strength." Seeing Huang Zhong responded, Zhao Yun said to Xue Bing: "Zihan and General Ma Dai are preparing to lead fire and poison. This burning of the mountain will be handed over to you two!"
