Chapter 766 Dongshan Fire
"Something happened... something happened? What happened?"
When Ying Zheng spoke, he couldn't hold his tongue straight, his body began to shake, and his upper and lower eyelids were about to close.
"Dongshan is on fire!"
Ying Feiyu stood up suddenly and stared at Dongshan carefully.
But even though his body has been modified, he still can't see clearly what's going on in Dongshan in the distance!
"Feiyu, are you sure?"
Hearing this, Lian'er suddenly showed a look of anxiety.
"That's right! It's indeed on fire! Looking at the situation, the fire should be quite strong!"
Ying Feiyu nodded firmly, and then called to the soldiers in the palace, "Quick... hurry up and investigate the situation. As soon as there is news, report back immediately!"
"yes!"
The soldiers accepted the order and went to do it immediately.
"Mother, help your father to rest quickly, and you won't have to worry about these things anymore!"
After giving the instructions, Ying Feiyu urged Lian'er to quickly take Daddy Zha back to rest.
At first Lian'er was a little hesitant, but after looking at Ying Zheng's condition, she nodded slightly, "Feiyu, just leave these matters to the palace guards and the army. You must not take risks!"
"Mom, don't worry!"
Ying Feiyu responded with a smile and sent two servants to help his father to rest while his mother waited on him.
Not long after the two left, the soldiers who had just been dispatched came back in a panic and reported, "Your Highness, the sky is dry and everything is dry, and a raging fire suddenly ignited in Dongshan!"
"Hurry up and send someone to find Marquis Tongwu and ask him to lead the army to put out the fire!"
It was midnight at this time, both the generals and soldiers were probably asleep, and no one noticed the situation in Dongshan.
If he hadn't been drinking with Daddy, he might not have noticed!
"yes!"
The soldiers went to do it immediately.
Ying Feiyu also led a group of people and hurried towards the city wall.
This place is closer to Dongshan. With a telescope, you can see the situation of Dongshan more clearly!
Just as he guessed, the entire Dongshan Mountain was a sea of fire, and billowing smoke continued to sweep across the sky.
Under the howling of the strong wind, fire dragons kept hovering in the air, and then angrily rushed towards the woods not far away. Repeatedly, the flames spread rapidly across the entire Dongshan Mountain!
"Your Highness, the fire in Dongshan is so fierce that there is no way to stop it!"
At this moment, Wang Ben walked over quickly with a gray complexion and a look of guilt on his face.
The moment he received the news, he immediately ordered his troops and headed to Dongshan!
However, the fire is so fierce that, let alone extinguishing the fire, even if you get even a little closer, your whole body will feel hot, as if you were being roasted on a fire rack!
"Are there any casualties?"
"The soldiers can't get in at all. There are no casualties. I just don't know what the situation is like in those villages at the foot of Dongshan Mountain!"
Ever since Shota sent someone to notify Dongshan of the fire, he has been mobilizing troops and generals, hoping to put out the fire as soon as possible.
But they never thought that the fire location could not be approached at all. Trying to stop the spread of the flames was simply a fool's errand!
"Dispatch the soldiers, this time the prince will personally lead them!"
Ying Feiyu threw the telescope to an ordinary soldier behind him and issued an order to Wang Ben.
The wind is strong in spring, and if the wildfire is not dealt with in time, it will spread faster than they imagined. It will be more difficult to put out the fire by then, and it is uncertain how many villages and people will suffer!
"Your Highness, let us try again. The fire scene is really too dangerous!"
Hearing such words, Wang Ben's face changed slightly.
He just went to the fire scene to investigate. The heat made his cheeks hurt, the thick smoke choked him with tears and snot, and the flames drifting in the wind, he didn't know when they would fall on him.
The top of your head is really too dangerous!
"No need to say more, please take this prince over quickly! Gather all the soldiers who have just been sent out and wait for my prince's orders!"
He quickly ran down the city wall, got into the carriage, and gave orders to Wang Ben.
"yes!"
Needless to say, there is no need to say much about His Royal Highness. Since such an order is issued, it means that there is no room for refutation, and he only needs to execute it.
"Send someone to inform the Xianyang government to appease the people and not cause panic!"
On the carriage, Ying Feiyu did not forget to give orders.
"yes!"
Someone outside the carriage responded, followed by a series of sounds of galloping horses.
…
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
After seeing the prince's figure, all the soldiers knelt on one knee and looked at him eagerly.
"Without any courtesy, everyone will follow this prince!"
Time was in a hurry, and it was very valuable to be able to gather these people in a short period of time. After gently waving to signal them to get up, they headed straight for the distance.
"Your Highness, you can't go any further!"
The soldiers quickly spoke to stop him.
It's still quite a distance from the fire scene.
But even so, the heat waves come one after another, making the person very uncomfortable!
"All soldiers obey orders!"
After carefully observing the line of fire in the distance for a while, Ying Feiyu stopped and then turned to look at the team following behind.
"yes!"
All the soldiers shouted in unison.
"From this direction, all the way to the top of the mountain, with a width of one hundred meters, I will clear all the flowers, plants and trees above, and take action immediately!"
There wasn't much time left for them. Creating an isolation belt here would control the spread of the flames. As for the other three directions, he also needed to send people there.
It is simply impossible to extinguish such a large fire at once. The only option is to remove all nearby combustibles first so that the fire cannot continue to spread.
"Your Highness, what do you mean by this? The fire is raging now, shouldn't we quickly find a way to rush over and water it?"
A soldier asked without knowing why.
"If you could get closer, you wouldn't be standing here right now!"
Ying Feiyu didn't explain too much, but dispatched other people to quickly go to the other three sides to cut down trees.
"yes!"
Although they didn't understand the purpose of doing so, the soldiers could only act according to the order.
If the fire spreads, it's not their fault!
"Your Highness, isn't this a blind order? Dongshan is on fire, why do you want us to cut down the trees?"
"That's right! If we don't save the fire, it will be a waste of time for us to cut down the trees from such a long distance!"
"What if the fire spreads and reaches Xianyang City?"
"In the final analysis, His Royal Highness is still just a child. Even if he can study some weird things, he still has too little experience in these things in life!"
"Fighting fire with water is common sense in life. Even if His Royal Highness has little experience, he should know it...!"
