Three Kingdoms

Darkness is sometimes a form of protection.

Under the sun, many things are clearly visible. Even if they escape one person's eyes, they cannot escape the eyes of everyone.

But under dim light, some details are not so easy to detect...

At this time, the sunset had been setting for some time. Although the surrounding objects could still be seen generally, it was already dim and unclear. Zheng Ke's soldiers were shouting crazily as they rushed into the city gate. Almost no one paid attention. The soles of my feet were a little soft, and what was it that made some tinny sounds...

After entering the city from the West Gate, there is the East-West Street. Although it is called a street, it is not as wide as Luoyang Street due to terrain restrictions. It is about the width of four more carriages, which means that up to ten cavalry can drive side by side.

On both sides of the street are residential houses and a small number of shops. The structure is somewhat similar to that of the posthouse. They are all repaired with half wood and half stone mud. Due to the overall terrain restrictions of Hangu Pass, the buildings are relatively dense, and the houses are relatively dense. There is almost no gap left in between.

This leaves room for Fei Qian and Zhang Liao to take advantage of...

Hangu Pass used to be an important transition station for transporting materials from Luoyang to Chang'an. Because Guo Pu was stationed there, a lot of supplies and grain were also stored.

When Fei Qian was fleeing for his life, he hesitated outside the public treasury. He did not want to burn it all, but only lit a pile of hay piled under the wall outside the warehouse.

Unexpectedly, this kind thought would come in handy today.

Fei Qian's little kindness left behind the needed supplies; while Zhang Liao used killing to gather the needed manpower...

Zhang Liao's more than one hundred war horses, regardless of their original intention, played a solid guest role as cart-pulling horses, transporting almost all the hay in the public treasury and allowing the auxiliary troops to pass through the city gate. There is a layer of pavement within 100 meters of the main street.

Zhang Liao was no longer able to put the guards at Hangu Pass who were under guard at the school field to use.

In order to prevent these soldiers from having any inappropriate thoughts, Zhang Liao directly carried out the tithe on the school grounds, and they carried it out themselves...

Those who were drawn were tied up in a row, and then each of the so-called lucky ones came up and stabbed them!

After Zhang Liao expressionlessly beheaded a dozen soldiers who were unwilling to come forward and kill his colleagues, the heads rolling on the ground finally broke the psychology of those so-called survivors...

During the gap between the battles and the time Fei Qian and his soldiers fought hard to fight on the city wall, Zhang Liao used the more than 100 extra soldiers and the less than 300 auxiliary soldiers left from the previous battle to not only defeat these A section of nearly 100 meters of street was paved with hay, and the doors and windows of the houses on both sides of the street were either sealed with wooden boards or tightly blocked with grain bags, forming an artificial urn city!

As for the residents of these houses, Zhang Liao had already driven them to Zheng Guanling's house in the inner city. Those who refused to leave were killed on the spot...

In this situation, Zhang Liao knew that a little kindness would be cruel to himself and all friendly forces.

Although part of Zheng Guanling's mansion was burned down by Fei Qian before, the foundation is still good. It has high walls and a deep courtyard. It is enough to drive people inside, lock the door, and send four or five soldiers to guard it.

"ignition!"

Zhang Liao ordered.

The soldiers on the side quickly used torches to light the two carriages loaded with hay beside them. The dry hay burned almost in the blink of an eye...

Although he couldn't bear it, the soldier still put a blindfold on the horse, and then slashed the horse's butt!

The horses in the two carriages could not see, were in pain, and felt the rolling heat wave behind them. They let out a long neigh, stepped forward on four legs, and carried the burning hay carriage with them, as if they were dragging Two huge fireballs headed towards Zheng Ke's troops pouring into the city gate!

Soldier Zheng Ke, who was running along the East-West Street into the city, suddenly saw two burning carriages rushing towards him. The heart of the soldier rushing at the front almost stopped with fear. He hurriedly hid on both sides, only to find that there was no one on either side of the street. The doors and windows were all nailed shut with wooden boards!

Before they could think of anything to do, two burning carriages arrived in a blink of an eye. The blindfolded horses didn't even know there was someone in front of them, so they rushed forward with their heads covered, and collided with the crowd in the middle of the street with a crash. When they got together, after knocking several soldiers away, the horses couldn't control their bodies and fell to the ground. At the same time, they also overturned the carriage full of burning hay. The burning hay was like a sudden burst of flames. Like flowers, they scatter in all directions and ignite wherever they fall...

Hay, clothes, hair...

Everything that could burn burned at this moment, and the flames jumped and danced crazily, painting this century-old ancient pass with bright and bright colors.

Fei Qian, who was on the city wall, took the remaining soldiers and divided them into two sides. Almost at the same time that Zhang Liao lit the carriage, he also threw the hay that was lit on the city wall to both sides of the city gate as quickly as possible, and immediately the people entering the city were thrown. Zheng Ke's troops were cut into two parts, especially the crash supports and wooden piles that had collapsed near the city gate. Although the damp wood was only cut today, after the burning of many forages, some small ones were finally found. The branches began to burn, and then ignited larger and more wood, and the entire city gate fell into a sea of ​​​​fire...

This is also thanks to Zheng Kuai's shoddy workmanship. If there were not so many incompletely cleaned branches and forks on the crash car, Fei Qian would have set these paralyzed crash cars on fire, especially if there was only one bare and thick one. It is really not easy to set a wooden pile on fire.

But now, these branches and leaves that were originally used to protect people from crashing cars and pushing carts have now become the best combustion aids. Under the continuous burning state, these small branches eventually burned into a piece, and because of the moisture, The wood gave off a lot of smoke, and even Fei Qian and others above the city gate choked and coughed, let alone the people near the city gate...

Once a heavy wooden pile is burned, it is difficult to even try to move it, let alone do it in the smoke.

On top of the city gate, Fei Qian and others endured the smoke. After throwing down all the hay stored above, they all rolled and crawled away from the smoke.

Fei Qian was so smoked that he shed tears, but when he saw the Zheng Ke soldiers surrounded by fire on the streets below the city, he finally took a long breath...

"Fell into a trap!"

Zheng Ke's soldiers suddenly realized this problem from the ecstasy of breaking the door. This huge emotional contrast almost defeated their last trace of strength. They were originally supported by crazy emotions and squeezed their potential, but now Only to find that the fruit of victory he thought had turned into an illusory bubble...

Liu Bei: "Sir, what's wrong?"

Sima Hui: "Your Majesty's mount seems to be the legendary fierce horse 'De Lu'. If you don't give it up, you will suffer harm from it in the future."
