The group of hot air balloons slowly rose into the air and left the camp.
The underground Hu Canjun camp was in chaos. They were bombed so suddenly that they didn't know what was going on.
Many soldiers were killed while they were still asleep.
The war horses were neighing, and many of the horses in the stable were frightened and ran away.
The whole place was filled with smoke and fire, and the flames dyed the surroundings of the camp red, lighting it up.
On the top of Donggu Pass, Zhou Yi looked at the miserable scene in the enemy camp with great satisfaction.
"Well, these dogs are damned by God, hahahaha."
The deputy generals beside him also echoed.
At this moment, their tense mood was relaxed a lot. They thought that after such a change, even if the enemy did not retreat tomorrow, they would not attack again.
At this time, the hot air balloon had drifted very far away and looked blurry in the night sky.
A lieutenant pointed at the hot air balloon floating in the sky and asked,
"General, what are those in the sky?"
"You're ignorant. This must be..." Zhou Yi started to belittle her, but he himself didn't seem to understand what those things were. He continued, "It's... it's the calamity cloud of the thunder tribulation."
"Oh, so there really are disaster clouds, and they look like this, dark and floating slowly. General, you are amazing, you have seen this before."
The deputy general nodded repeatedly as if he had suddenly understood.
Zhou Yi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had smoothed it over. He coughed twice.
"Ahem, stop looking, let's switch defenses, those who need to rest should go and rest quickly.
Even though Hu Gou has been punished by heaven, we can't be careless, don't you know?"
"Yes, General."
…
Early in the morning.
The flying team bypassed the battlefield and returned to Qin Shi’s large group.
Everyone is very proud and happy.
Qin Shi would kick and scold whoever laughed the most.
"I've given you guys such great abilities that you don't even know which way is which. Why don't you... cough cough."
Qin Shi almost said something wrong again, but he stopped in time and continued,
"Everyone go pack up and prepare to evacuate."
The soldiers responded one after another.
Qin Shi continued to stand on a high point to observe the enemy situation.
A lot of areas of General Hu's camp were destroyed, but their number was too large, and the camp stretched for several miles.
The flying team can only bomb places where there are many people.
Qin Shi observed for a while and, judging from the enemy's military formation, he found that about 20% of their troops had been killed.
This is already a pretty good result, and we don’t know how many people were injured.
After a while, Qin Shi's troops were ready to go.
After last night's raid, all the explosives and other things we brought with us had been cleared out, and now there was not much in each backpack.
Led the team back a distance.
Qin Shi ordered his men to camp not far along the road, waiting for Wu Gong Qin Bai to finish his work and join them.
Old Pine Valley.
This is the third day that Jiang Hai and the others have been waiting here.
After noon.
The scouts in the front came galloping back, saying that Hu Can's reinforcement team had arrived.
"How many people are there?" Wu Gong asked.
"There are probably around 10,000."
"Okay, quickly put the horse back and hide it."
Ten thousand soldiers returning to support is not bad.
It should be when Jiang Hai and his men captured Liaocheng and Wucheng. There were not many people in the city, and the defenders who escaped to report the news saw the number of people and reported it to Yuan Minbin.
Wu Gong originally predicted that a few thousand people would come, but the other party was still a bit conservative. Nearly ten thousand people actually came.
After receiving the news, people on both sides of the mountain hid in the grass.
Dugu Qiu, wearing a ghillie suit, ran to the end closest to the direction the enemy was coming from.
The old man thought that he could go down and kill the enemy earlier, so he had no sword on hand, but he borrowed a knife, which was better than nothing.
The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer as they approached the valley.
The team leader, General Hu, stopped his horse, looked at the terrain, and felt a little depressed.
They are more familiar with this place, which is a good place for ambush.
When he came here before, no one attacked the city, but now it is different, and he became cautious.
According to intelligence analysis, if the people who attacked Liaocheng and Wucheng did not occupy the two cities, it is very likely that they were nearby.
The general sent several scouts to climb the mountains on both sides. It would be safer to investigate before moving forward.
Seeing this, the Xincheng Corps lying in ambush on the top of the mountain hid deeper.
Jiang Hai couldn't help but admire this general, who seemed to be quite knowledgeable about military tactics.
A moment later, two scouts came up from each hill.
The scouts walked along the edge of the valley for a long time and did not find any problems.
The New City Legion were all wearing jungle camouflage and hiding very deep, so they could not be seen unless you carefully went into the forest to explore.
Only Dugu Qiu, the old man, was lying in the grass not far from the edge of the valley.
As a result, when the two scouts came over, Dugu Qiu buried his head in the grass for fear of being exposed.
The two scouts actually stepped over the old man.
The old man covered his mouth and dared not make a sound. He gritted his teeth and a thousand alpacas were galloping in his heart.
After the scout walked a short distance, he spoke,
"It seems there's no one here. There's no need to go any deeper. If there's an ambush, it's impossible not to see it here."
"Well, let's go back."
Then return along the same route.
As a result, he stepped over old man Dugu Qiu again.
"Hey, the soil here is a bit soft, be careful."
"Hmm, could it be the shit of a wild boar or something?"
The other scout walked a few steps, then lifted his foot to see if it was stained with shit. Fortunately, there was none.
Dugu Qiu, lying on the ground, stared at the two scouts' departing backs with angry eyes.
"I will remember you two." The old man said in a low voice, suppressing his anger, his back teeth almost broken.
The scout returned to the team and reported the situation.
This time, General Hu gave the order to continue moving forward with confidence.
The team entered the valley and ran for some distance until the warhorse in front approached the explosion point set by Wu Gong.
"Boom boom boom." Several explosions were heard.
Rocks and trees were falling in front of us, blocking the road completely and making it impossible for the horses to pass.
Then, the same explosion sounded from the back of the valley. Don't block the retreat route.
The continuous explosions frightened many of Hu Can's cavalry's horses and caused them to run away, but they could only run in the valley and could not get out.
In an instant, the valley was in chaos.
The Xincheng Corps on the mountain, carrying explosives, swarmed to the edge of the cliff.
"Blast the fish pond!"
Jiang Hai shouted.
The soldiers threw the lit explosive packs down the valley one by one.
More than a thousand people bombing a team of nearly ten thousand people was simply a massacre.
Cai'er also joined in the fun.
"Give me one, give me one, I want to explode it too."
She also got a bomb, lit it and threw it down.
The Hu Can army below was blown into pieces, with countless casualties. Those who survived were those with a physique tougher than steel.
