Chapter 2226 cruel smile

Wang Hui immediately took a breath. He didn't expect that the Shu army would use killer moves step by step. He led the cavalry camp and had always been invincible. He developed a feeling of underestimating the enemy. He thought he was not afraid of the ambush of the Shu army. When he was pursuing, he did not pay attention to the changes in the terrain. He did not expect that the Shu army would actually use fire attacks. Wang Hui regretted it now.

I was careless, so careless!

This time when attacking Huya Mountain, the Tunqi Camp was subject to the terrain and was indeed very frustrated. The cavalry turned into infantry and first lost its ability to move. In addition, they were wearing heavy armor, and even though their protective ability was still first-class, their movement speed was like a turtle and tortoise. The Tunqi Camp also received a nickname called "Turtle Armor Army".

This was clearly an insult to the Tunqi Camp. The top and bottom of the Tunqi Camp were extremely resentful, but in the battle of Weirongzhai, the Tunqi Camp had never been able to make any achievements and could not justify itself, which made the whole camp hold his breath secretly.

This time, the Shu army finally took the initiative to give up Weirong Village. Of course, the Tunqin camp would not let the Shu army escape so easily. They rode back to the war horses, chased them all the way, and chased them to Mount Qiting in one breath.

It’s a pity that Bu Xie’s men fled early, and the Tunqi Camp tried their best to pursue him, but they did not catch up with Bu Xie before he escaped to Mount Qiting. This is a small regret.

However, Wang Hui did not give up. Bu Xie fled to Mount Yiting. So what could it be? Sima Lun, who was stationed in the site, was also careless. How could he have the energy to save Bu Xie? Even Sima Lun was in a slap in the tun cavalry camp, and he was only in a slight anger in his heart.

Therefore, when pursuing, the Tunqi Camp has always acted as the vanguard, attacking the fiercest and fighting the most fierce, and biting the Shu army tightly.

Anyway, the Tunqi Camp, which was armed to the teeth, was not afraid of the crossbows of the Shu army. It was useless to shoot. As long as the Tunqi Camp pursued the entire way, more Shu army troops could not escape.

But unexpectedly, the Shu army not only used crossbows but also used fire attack methods this time. Once fire attack was encountered in this narrow place, the Wei army was immediately tragic.

It is fine to protect the armor of the Tunqi Camp, but if it is fireproof, it will be almost the same. Although the armor is not a flammable substance, after being burned by the fire, the iron armor will turn red and hot, and the people inside the armor will be suffocated to death.

Moreover, this process is relatively slow, and the Wei soldiers who were roasted to death will die in great pain.

Sima Lun was well prepared. He knew very well that a cavalry of the Wei army was heavy cavalry, and even the people and horses were covered with thick armor. Even if such cavalry were prepared by the Shu army, it would be useless.

But the inability to hurt the bow and arrow does not mean that Sima Lun has no way to deal with the Tunqi Camp. A real famous general will not only stick to one kind of tactic. As long as the geographical location is good, you can use water attack or fire attack. As the saying goes, water and fire are ruthless, how can human power resist it?

Even though the Wei army was wearing armor that could not be damaged by swords and arrows, they were still invincible in the face of floods and fires.

However, under normal circumstances, the conditions for using fire attack and water attack are relatively harsh. Otherwise, Zhou Yu's fire burning of Chibi and Guan Yu's flooding of the seven armies would not have become classics.

Simalun had personally inspected the terrain of Dengying Gorge. Such a narrow space is completely an ideal place for fire attacks. So Simalun secretly sent people to Dengying Gorge to prepare for fire-attracting objects and prepare for fire attacks in advance.

At this moment, as soon as the Wei army entered the canyon, Sima Lun set fire. The entire valley immediately turned into a sea of ​​fire, with flames soaring into the sky, making the Wei army cry and screaming in tears.

Watching Wei Jun struggle to survive in the sea of ​​fire, Sima Lun showed a cruel smile on his face.

It seems cruel to be burned to death by the fire, but war has never been a kind thing. On the battlefield, both sides of the hostile side will always be to the death. There is no third way to choose. Benevolence to the enemy is cruel to oneself. On the battlefield, in order to achieve the goal, they are never used any means.

In addition to taking advantage of the opportunity of Wei's division of troops to wipe out a battalion of the Wei army in Yuzhou, Simalun was not only defeated, but also defeated. It was so difficult to win a beautiful victory against the Wei army!

Sima Lun had high hopes for this battle in Xiling, so he fought very hard at his 文版. He led the Wei army, which was under the previous team of Sima's army, to guard the 文版 for more than a month, successfully repelled the Wei army's multiple attacks and achieved impressive results.

If the Shu army had the opportunity to gain a foothold in Xiling, it would undoubtedly be a bridgehead built in Jingzhou, which would have positive significance for the Shu army's northern expedition to the Central Plains in the future.

It is true that Cao Liang's strength is very strong now, and even if he gathers the power of Shu Wu and Sima's family, he cannot compete with him.

But things in the world are often prosperous and defeated. He has been in the east and thirty years, although Cao Liang is now in a very glorious place, he will grow old and his power will decline after decades.

Sima Lun is much younger than Cao Liang. Theoretically speaking, if there is no unexpected situation, Sima Lun will definitely live longer than Cao Liang, so Sima Lun can afford to wait. When Cao Liang is weak and powerless in the future, he will launch a full-scale counterattack to avenge the dead Sima family.

It’s a pity that Simalun played well alone, it was useless. The loss of Xiling City shattered Simalun’s last hope and could not gain a foothold in Jingzhou. In the future, he would lose a base for the Northern Expedition. Simalun worked hard on the defense line of the Qiting Pavilion for more than a month, but now he was completely in vain.

Of course Simalun was unwilling to give up, but in the face of the general trend, he was unable to make up for the situation. The only thing Simalun could do now is to jointly retreat together and preserve more counterattack power for the Shu army.

But under the current situation, even if Sima Lun wants to retreat, it is not easy, because the Wei army cannot give them the opportunity to escape easily. With the speed of the Wei cavalry, there is no problem to bite the Shu army tightly. Once the Shu army is entangled by the Wei army, it will suffer endless losses until it is eaten away by the Wei army.

Of course, Simalun would not allow this situation to occur. The ambush in Dengying Gorge became a powerful weapon for Simalun to counterattack the Wei army. As long as he could severely damage the pursuers of the Wei army here, Simalun and the Bing Association could rest assured to go to Ma'anshan.
