"How could we possibly keep attacking Liangshan's cargo ships?"
"That's it,"
Zhu Wu nodded and said,
"In my humble opinion, if the Huaixi army is lying in ambush,"
"It must be in that forest."
"If that's the case, why don't we just have the soldiers light torches?"
"Burn that forest down!"
"this....."
Zhao Yuan's eyes widened immediately.
"It's late autumn now, and the weather is dry,"
"If a fire starts, that whole forest will probably be burned to the ground, right?"
"So what?"
Zhu Wu asked in surprise,
"There's a river right there,"
"Even if the wildfire gets big, it will only burn down two hilltops at most."
Zhao Yuan looked at the strategist's nonchalant expression.
That's when I remembered.
This is no longer the era of "a fire on the mountain, and you and me in the institute" (meaning everyone is caught in the crossfire).
"That's fine,"
Zhao Yuan pondered for a moment,
Then he nodded.
Anyway,
Two or three hilltops are not as important as the lives of his soldiers.
If the Huaixi army had truly succeeded in their ambush...
Even if Liangshan was prepared in advance,
In the end, some casualties are probably inevitable.
Rather than that,
It would be better to just burn it down!
.....
Wang Dingliu led the way.
Zhao Yuan and his fellow leaders led the Liangshan cavalry.
They quickly arrived at the place where the water plants were abundant.
"Brother, if we're talking about places that can hide people..."
Wang Dingliu pointed to a grove of trees on the opposite bank of the river.
"That's it!"
"it is good!"
Zhao Yuan tested the wind direction.
After it wasn't facing this direction...
Give the order immediately.
He ordered Luan Tingyu and Shi Jin to lead their cavalry troops.
The woods were completely surrounded.
Then,
Qin Ming, who was well-prepared,
He directly led his cavalry.
The torches were lit.
He threw it into the woods!
It was already autumn.
The forest was full of dry branches and fallen leaves.
Liangshan threw the torch inside,
The fallen leaves were quickly set ablaze.
After a while,
In this forest,
Then a raging fire broke out.
As the fire spread...
Thick smoke billowed up with the wind.
It swept across the entire forest...
Chapter 1133 How to Face Wang Qing
Those who originally obeyed Du Xue's orders,
The bandits of Huaixi, hiding in the ravines
It was quickly forced out by the intense heat and thick smoke of the fire!
But waiting for them outside the woods...
But they already had knives and spears in hand.
Draw the bowstring and summon the Liangshan soldiers!
Although Du Xue was not leading,
But these Huaixi lackeys
After all, they were all elite troops trained and disciplined by Wang Qing over many years.
In addition to the past,
They also acted with impunity in Huaixi.
Accustomed to being unscrupulous,
Facing the cavalry of Liangshan,
These Huaixi lackeys immediately
They didn't immediately raise their hands to surrender.
Instead, they shouted "Kill!"
They launched an attack on the Liangshan cavalry!
But what happened next...
But it was different from the ones they had encountered before.
The Liangshan army,
Unlike the bandits or government troops that these Huaixi armies had encountered before,
They scattered and fled in panic.
Instead, they remained calm and stayed where they were.
After these Huaixi troops charged into a range of twenty paces,
"Fire arrows!"
With a shout from Qin Ming,
Thousands of arrows rained down like arrows.
In an instant,
It landed on the heads of the Huaixi army!
These elite troops of the Huaixi Army
Although they were also wearing armor
But their armor,
However, they were all crudely made by the Song court.
Hand it over to the local imperial guards!
After two volleys of arrows fell,
In an instant,
Nearly a hundred of the Huaixi henchmen fell to the ground.
Unable to move
And the remaining people
His body was also riddled with arrows.
They all became like hedgehogs!
"kill!"
Qin Ming snorted coldly.
Accompanied by shouts,
He himself took the lead.
Waving a spiked club,
He then charged into the ranks of the Huaixi bandits!
in an instant,
Cries of terror and wailing
It rang immediately!
It only took a short while.
There were originally over four hundred henchmen who could still stand.
Half of them have collapsed again!
And the remaining people,
He quickly knelt down on the ground.
They all begged for mercy!
"Confiscate all the armor and weapons of the surrendered henchmen!"
Zhao Yuan gave the order.
"Tie all these Huai-Xi people together in groups of ten!"
After controlling these Huaixi lackeys,
Zhao Yuan then quickly checked the casualties at Liangshan.
Taking advantage of the fire attack and ambush,
