Chapter 11 You're done
As soon as Nangong Yu and others retreated into the underground road, hundreds of Xiqi reinforcements from Griffon City arrived in a hurry. Looking at the burning fire, hundreds of Xiqi defenders were shocked.
"Hurry up, put out the fire quickly!" Hundreds of Xiqi defenders were busy putting out the fire like ants on a hot pan, and they had no time to chase Nangong Yu and others.
"Quick, the fire will soon burn to the Xiqi Army's turret oil warehouse. The turret oil warehouse is next to the Thunder Medicine Warehouse. We must evacuate the Griffin City before the Thunder Medicine explodes, otherwise we will be buried alive when the Thunder Medicine explodes! "Nangong Yu ordered urgently.
"Brother Nangong, how are your injuries? Can you hold on?" Because the underground road is too narrow and you can only crawl, Gao Shan can no longer carry Nangong Yu on his back. Seeing Nangong Yu crawling very quickly alone in the underground road, Gao Shan was secretly worried that Nangong Yu's forced action in such a serious injury would be very unfavorable to the wound.
"Don't worry, I've taken Huiyuan Dan, and the wound has begun to heal!" Nangong Yu said casually. Most of the penetrating wounds on his shoulders have healed under the treatment of the Array Tu Stone.
"Damn, brothers Nangong, your Nangong family is so rich. You brought all the Yuan Dan with you!" Gao Shan couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this.
Not long after, Nangong Yu and others climbed up from the moat of Griffon City, turned their heads to look at Griffon City. The sky above Griffon City was covered with thick black smoke, and the towering fire reached more than ten feet high. Obviously, the fire had already burned to the turbid oil warehouse.
"Haha, this time the Xiqi army has no food and grass. I'll see how they are fighting with us when they are hungry!" Luo Wei was so happy that he smiled with joy when he saw the flames and smoke of the raging fire.
"That's right, I finally got proud!" Li Long also spitted fiercely.
"Stop talking nonsense, retreat to the northwest battle field immediately!" Nangong Yu put his ear on the ground and listened to the movement. The reinforcements around the Griffin City were already close.
"Yes!" Gao Shan and others followed Nangong Yu and rushed towards the northwest.
Ten kilometers outside the Griffin City, an elite Xiqi cavalry was riding a horse. The leader of the team was Fan Ritu. Fan Ritu led his men to rush the horse, but he was still one step late.
Fan Ritu saw the thick smoke over the Griffin City, and his face was extremely frightened and angry. The survivors of the fire army actually burned the griffin city's food camp.
"General, are we still going to Griffin City?" asked an officer next to Fan Ritu.
"What a fool to go, haven't you seen the thick smoke and flames dozens of feet high above the Griffon City? The fire has already burned to the turret oil warehouse and cannot be extinguished, and it will soon burn to the Thunder Medicine Warehouse. Once the Thunder Medicine explodes, the entire Griffon City will be razed to the ground. Hurry up!" Fan Ritu's saliva sprayed far away and said angrily.
"Yes!" The officer heard this and quickly ordered: "Hurry, retreat!"
And just inside the grass not far from Fan Ritu, there was an elite scout team lurking. There were only five people in this scout team, wearing the war uniforms of the Great Qin soldiers. It was one of the many scout teams sent by Zhao Ziyun, the commander of the Great Qin.
"I really didn't expect that these desperate guys from the Fire Army would actually burn the griffin city's food camp!"
"Yes, we came all the way, but we still couldn't catch up with them. These guys are really fast!"
"Captain, should we immediately send the pigeon to report the good news to the commander!"
...
Four scoutsmen came close to the scout captain's ear and muttered quietly.
"Since the grain camp in Griffon City has been burned, and the brothers of the Fire Army must have their own escape method. Our mission has been completed, and we will withdraw to the Qin Dynasty!" said the scout team leader decisively.
"Captain, the grain camp in Griffon City is burned. This is an excellent opportunity for our Daqin to send troops. I think we should immediately send a pigeon to the commander. Soldiers are very fast!" said a scout team member.
"No, we are now in the hinterland of Xiqi, and when the grain camp in Griffon City is burned, the Xiqi army will definitely do everything possible to block the news. The pigeons we release cannot escape the Xiqi army's arrows, and will also expose our location. While the Xiqi army has not discovered us, we will immediately withdraw the Qin Dynasty's message!" said the scout captain.
"yes!"
The fire in Griffon City was still not extinguished. Just when the fire was about to burn to the Thunder Medicine Warehouse, the soldiers of Xiqi who were extinguishing the fire threw away the fire-fighting tools in their hands and all spread their feet and ran out of the city.
However, these Xiqi soldiers who put out the fire retreated too late!
There was only a shocking sound, and the Thunder Medicine Warehouse exploded.
The strong shock wave spread around in a circular shape. In the blink of an eye, the Griffon City turned into a ruin. The houses were blown away, the trees were uprooted, the walls of Griffon City also collapsed, and the location of the Thunder Medicine Warehouse was blown out a large pit with a diameter of hundreds of feet.
Within a radius of thousands of feet, all life disappeared.
"My God, how many thunder medicine has the Xiqi army placed in their food camp? It's so powerful!"
"Yes, fortunately, these thunder medicines have caused the Xiqi army to suffer. If they were used on the battlefield, I wonder how many people our Daqin soldiers would hurt."
Nangong Yu and others had withdrawn from the Griffon City for more than ten kilometers, but they still felt the vibration of the ground under their feet and heard the loud roar like thunder.
"After the explosion, the Xiqi army will immediately conduct a carpet-style search for the radius of Griffon City. Let's hurry to the military horse farm immediately!" Nangong Yu's face did not show the joy of exploding Griffon City, but a strong look.
"yes!"
Soon, Nangong Yu and the other ten people met. Everyone was extremely excited and rode fifteen fast horses and galloped towards the direction of Qingshui River.
Xiqi Commander Camp
"Commander, the last general is incompetent, please punish him!" A group of Xiqi generals knelt in front of Yuwen Hu, with a pale face. The food and grass in the Griffon City were burned, and all the garrison generals had no choice but to shirk their responsibilities.
"Punishment?" Yuwenhu's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. "Is punishment useful? If punishment could recover the losses of the Grain and Grass Camp in Griffon City, I would have already practiced all of you in military law!"
At this time, a message soldier rushed in and knelt in front of Yuwen Hu: "Commander, I just received a report from the military horse farm. An army of unknown origin snatched fifteen war horses from the military horse farm and ran towards the direction of Qingshui River!"
When Yuwen Hu heard this, he was so angry that he kicked the messenger back into the scallion and shouted: "Why are you still standing there? This must be the enemy who burned our food camp. Why don't you send someone to chase me!"
"General Fan has gone to chase him!" The messenger replied in shock.
"Commander, calm down. Now things are irreversible. Once the food camp in Griffon City is burned, the Qin army will definitely take the opportunity to attack. Let's prepare to face the enemy immediately." A general from Xiqi whispered.
"After the food and grass camp was lost, the spirit of the three armies was shaken, and they were still facing a big enemy. Pass my order and the whole army immediately retreated a hundred miles!" Yuwenhu said dejectedly.
"Retreat a hundred miles?" All the generals of Xiqi were shocked by Yuwen Hu's actions. They had confronted the Qin army for decades and had never retreated voluntarily. Now, Yuwen Hu actually asked the three armies to retreat a hundred miles. Wouldn't this give up the great mountains and rivers of Xiqi to Daqi in vain?
"Commander, why don't we just send a large army to fight the Qin army to a decisive battle? Maybe there will be a chance of this?" a general shouted.
"Decisive battle? Our food and grass can only last for half a month, but domestic support food and grass will take twenty days to be sent to the border. There are five days between them, and if we don't eat for five days, our Xiqi army has long been defeated without fighting, and we still have a big fight with others. Do you think Zhao Ziyun, the commander of the Qin army, is a fool. They want you to fight with him. As long as you lead the army to fight, they don't fight with you head-on. Just think a way to delay us for half a month. After half a month, do you think this war still has a chance?" Yuwenhu said angrily: "The army is gone, and there is no capital. As long as the army is still there, we will take back the lost territory. Pass my order, and the three armies will immediately retreat a hundred miles to avoid the enemy's edge!"
