The path of the villain is not easy

Chapter 153 ready to finish
Just as He Zheng was leaving, Guo Dingxin, who was below, also followed the order of the elder Sun Ji and poured kerosene on the bank. As the rockets fell, a raging fire ignited on the bank.

Behind the fire, Guo Dingxin lined up the soldiers, holding the shield made by Wang Liangbing before, and kept shooting arrows at the Hezhong Liang army through the fire.

The raging fire on the bank of the river, and the continuous shooting of arrows hidden behind the fire, made the soldiers in the middle of the river afraid to approach the bank easily.

Although the arrows shot were all covered with kerosene and would turn into rockets through the fire, but because the Liang army suffered from the fire attack last night, they were already prepared.

Each ship has a container of water. Once a rocket hits the ship, soldiers will quickly extinguish it. Although there are some casualties on the ship, it has not yet reached the effect of yesterday's ship destruction.

Now the two armies are not confronting each other head-on, they just rely on the long-distance attack of the archers to cause damage to the enemy. However, because the Yan army has shields to resist, the Liang army's offensive did not cause much damage to the Yan army. harm.

So now, in terms of the overall situation, it is our own small army that has the upper hand.

Time passed slowly, and the sun had begun to drift westward from the sky.As more and more grain troops stepped into the river, under the advantage of numbers, Guo Dingxin ran back and forth, a little tired of dealing with these grain troops.

To make matters worse, as time went on, the fire oil poured on the bank slowly burned out, and as the fire on the bank continued to shrink, some combustible plants on the bank also turned into ashes.Just left a line of ashes on the shore.

Changsun Ji's eyebrows slowly frowned according to the situation of the battle.

"Haven't the soldiers from the Paihui Yangping City come back yet?" Changsun Ji asked from left to right.

"General, not yet."

"Go and lead people to meet them, and bring the things here as soon as possible."

"This, but General, we are leaving, who will protect your safety." The guards on the left and right asked worriedly.

"It's okay. I'm in the rear now. As long as the defense line is not breached, there will be no danger. Go back quickly, and nothing will happen."

"But……"

"It's nothing to worry about. If you dawdle here again, the defense line below will be breached. Go quickly." Changsun Ji interrupted the guard directly, and said forcefully.

"Obey." Seeing that Changsun Ji was a little angry, the guards didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly turned around and prepared to leave.However, they did not all leave, leaving behind two guards to guard Sun Ji.

Changsun Ji stared intently at the situation below.But not long after the many guards behind him left, footsteps came from behind him.

Changsun Ji's heart moved, his palm was already on the Yanling Saber at his waist, and he turned his head abruptly, only to see one of the personal guards who came down not long ago.

A trace of anger flashed across Changsun Ji's face, and he asked, "Why didn't you follow the military order and came back?"

Seeing that Sun Ji was a little annoyed, the personal guard hurriedly bowed and said, "I tell the general, it's not because my subordinates didn't follow the military order, but because Yangping's transport team has arrived, right under Gaogang."

After hearing what the personal guards said, Changsun Ji's face flashed with joy, and he ordered: "Go and send an order to General Guo, let him line up the soldiers, use the sound of drums as a sign, don't take pity on bows and arrows, just use bows and arrows to my general." The grain army suppressed them back."

"Obey" This time the guard didn't hesitate, turned around and left, and went to deliver the order.

At this time, the personal guards who went down before also came up again one after another.Changsun Ji said to one of them again: "You go tell the transport team, drive the convoy to the front, and after General Guo suppresses the enemy, throw those barbed caltrops and chains into the river as soon as possible. It is still trumpeted by the sound of drums.”

"As ordered."

After distributing a series of orders, Changsun Ji turned around and looked at the entire battlefield again.

With the transmission of the guard's order, the situation on the battlefield changed, because the soldiers were all arranged in formation, and there was no interception of the grain army for a while.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Liang army advanced a little faster.

"General, the convoy transporting the caltrops has arrived." At this moment, a personal guard ran up to report to Changsun Ji.

"Okay, pass the order and beat the drum." Changsun Ji roared.

"As ordered."

Although it is not for attacking and defending in the city, but as a must for marching, there will naturally be marching drums. Because it is not easy to lift to the top of the high hill, they are placed under the high hill.

As the guards went down, the sound of drum beating could be heard from under the high hill.

With the sound of beating drums, Guo Dingxin also waved and ordered to release the arrows.

Because preparations had already started before, the entire sky was filled with arrows at the moment of the order, leaving a parabolic trajectory in the sky, rushing towards the grain army in the river.

Although some alert soldiers were on guard based on Yan Jun's previous actions, but because there was no shelter in the river, those who were shot by this wave of arrows didn't even dare to lift their heads.

Changsun Ji, who was observing the situation on the battlefield, ordered to his personal guards: "Then beat the drum and order the transport truck to dump the barbed wire into the river."

Following Changsun Ji's order, there were naturally guards behind him who went down to Gaogang to deliver the order.

As the drums sounded again, Changsun Ji standing on Gaogang saw a row of rafts floating into the river from the bank. The army floated away.

After the soldiers waiting to push the boat climbed ashore, more or less a few rockets landed on the row of rafts.

The raft had obviously been soaked in kerosene beforehand. Although it was floating in the water, it was just that as soon as the rocket landed on it, the whole raft burst into flames.

The fire took advantage of the wind, and soon the burning raft was burned to pieces.Some of the caltrops that had been placed on the raft also fell into the water due to their own weight.

There are different types of caltrops. There are short and short caltrops that are specially used for horseshoes on land. Naturally, there are such caltrops that are used in water warfare.

The iron thorns on this kind of caltrop are long and thin. As long as a boat passes by it, the bottom of the boat will be scratched. At that time, there will only be one result in the river, that is, the bottom of the boat will flood, and the boat will sink and people will die. .

Changsun Ji looked at the sky, and said to a guard next to him: "Rush to the upstream immediately, counting from now, three quarters from now, let He Zheng dig the dam he just built upstream for me. "

"As ordered."

As the guards left, Changsun Ji breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.As long as the Liang army hasn't found any problems, then the Liang army will definitely end in failure in this storm.
