Because of the alchemical fire oil, the trees that originally couldn't be set on fire became burning objects under the help of the alchemical fire oil.
This time, Ling Chao really admired his General Lu Meng. Previously, Lu Meng had asked him to use the pots and pans in the camp to fetch water from the stream. Ling Chao was reluctant to do so, but now, it seems that if he didn't do it, something bad would happen. Now that he had the water, he could use it to his advantage.
"Alchemical fire oil, it can actually burn in such a humid place!" Lu Meng didn't think that Zhang Liao would actually use alchemical fire oil. The trees that couldn't be set on fire were also ignited by the alchemical fire oil. Once the trees were ignited, the fire began to evaporate the water vapor. This made the fire more vigorous, turning the places that couldn't be set on fire.
But fortunately, Lu Meng had asked Ling Chao to fill the water so that he could water the burning trees.
"Come, put out the fire!" In fact, Lu Meng didn't need to give the order. The subordinates who had already retreated into the forest began to pour the water in the surroundings. Although the alchemical fire oil could ignite the damp trees, once a large amount of water was poured, it would still extinguish the fire.
Suddenly, the tree branches that were set ablaze by the alchemical fire oil began to emit thick smoke.
Five thousand people fought side by side. Soon, the fire in the forest was extinguished before it could even ignite.
"Haha, Zhang Liao's Army outside the forest must be furious!" Ling Chao on the side laughed wantonly. The other five thousand soldiers also laughed. After all, there was nothing happier than thwarting the enemy's conspiracy.
Due to the thousands of people laughing together, the laughter was able to travel out of the dense forest, allowing the people outside to hear it.
"Haha!" Lu Meng on the side also laughed. He didn't expect the alchemical fire oil, but Zhang Liao didn't expect it either. He had already prepared something to put out the fire in advance!
"General, this, this fire attack seems to be useless!" Zhang Hu and Ge Jun looked at Zhang Liao suspiciously. The laughter in the forest couldn't be hidden. It was so loud, but it was all unbridled laughter. Seeing that the fire in the forest was about to disappear, the fire that had just appeared was covered again.
"This Lu Meng is really cautious!" Zhang Liao didn't directly answer Zhang Hu's question. Instead, he smiled as he looked at the fire that was getting dimmer and dimmer. He knew that the fire wouldn't last much longer.
"General, why don't we go and attack Zhong You City? With the Alchemical Fire Oil, we can definitely take Zhong You City. As for the five thousand people you're worried about, as long as you give me three thousand, no, two thousand troops!" Zhang Hu shook his head and said, "As long as I have two thousand soldiers, I will make sure that they won't be able to leave this forest.
"Take down Zhongcheng? Zhang Liao smiled and said, "Without Zhongcheng, how can we act as bait and attack the reinforcements? How can we defeat the enemy?"
"What time is it now?" Zhang Liao asked Zhang Hu.
"It's already Wei Shi!" Wei Shi was the time when the sun began to set. It was usually around two o 'clock in the afternoon.
"It's time!" Zhang Liao suddenly got off his horse and walked to the Black Flag Army on the other side. When he arrived there, Zhang Hu and Ge Jun found that the Black Flag Army had already been ready for battle. The five thousand soldiers of the Black Flag Army were ready for battle.
"Soldiers, are you ready?" Zhang Liao shouted to the five thousand soldiers of the Black Flag Army.
"Ready!" The Black Flag Army's voice was very orderly.
"There are five thousand enemies in the forest, five thousand Jiangdong Army. Look at them, they are not new soldiers on the battlefield. Every one of them is an elite soldier who has been through hundreds of battles. Are you afraid?" Zhang Liao shouted to the Black Flag Army.
"No, no! Heaven and Earth Chessboard, the Black Flag Army will win! "Xu Sheng's Black Flag Army shouted. Previously, Wang Wei was in charge of the ballistae. This time, the one in charge of the Black Flag Army was Xu Sheng.
"General, are you going to rush into the forest and start a war?" Zhang Hu and Ge Jun looked at Zhang Liao and thought that he wanted to enter the forest and start a war.
"Why? Can't I? "Zhang Liao looked at the two with a faint smile.
"It's not that we can't, General. After all, we are not familiar with the forest. What if we encounter an ambush? It will be difficult for us to rescue them! " Ge Jun voiced out the worry in his heart. This forest was very big and the trees were very tall. If they were ambushed after entering the forest, that would be a big joke. Moreover, because of the forest's obstruction, their allies, the Xiliang Cavalry, would not be able to help them.
"So what if we are ambushed? If we can rush in, we can rush out! " Zhang Liao said to Zhang Liao. His eyes were shining as he looked at the heavy armored infantry under Xu Sheng's command. The Black Flag Army was even stronger than the Xiliang Cavalry. Although they were not the best infantry, they were not weaker than any other infantry. Liu Mang relied on the Black Flag Army and the City Guard to protect Lujiang and defeat the enemy in Yangzhou.
Originally, when Liu Mang sent Zhang Liao his troops, the Black Flag Army was the main force. The Xiliang Cavalry could only be regarded as training for Zhang Liao to familiarize himself with them. Now, it was time to use this heavy armored infantry.
Zhang Liao's confidence also infected Xu Sheng. Xu Sheng cupped his fist and said, "General, please rest assured. The Black Flag Army will not let you down! Even if we are ambushed and completely wiped out, we will definitely drag the Jiangdong Army down with us! "
"Hey!" Zhang Liao stopped Xu Sheng's words. "The Black Flag Army can only win this battle. If you lose the Black Flag Army, you don't have to come back. I also have no face to go back to Yangzhou to see the Young Lord!" The Black Flag Army was Liu Mang's two most elite troops. If Liu Mang could give the Black Flag Army to Zhang Liao, Zhang Liao would definitely not let Liu Mang down.
"Ambush?" Zhang Liao looked at the dense smoke in the dense forest and sneered. "We still don't know who is ambushing who!"
Zhang Liao stretched out his arms and felt the wind caress him. The wind slowly became stronger. The dry firewood and hay that Zhang Liao had thrown out of the dense forest were on fire. Thick smoke floated up from the wood and was blown into the dense forest by the wind.
The dense forest was originally filled with smoke. Now, with the wind and smoke, it was so thick that it was difficult to open one's eyes. It was a vast expanse of white.
Xu Sheng sniffed and said, "This smell is mugwort?" No, there were other things. There was even the stench of feces. Xu Sheng didn't know what was burning, and in front of him, the smoke was about to cover the entire forest under the blowing of the wind.
"Pull out your swords, tie your headscarves, and charge with me!" Zhang Liao took the lead. Except for his eyes, the rest of his face was covered with a wet cloth, especially his nose and mouth.
"Fire attack?" Zhang Liao had never thought of using fire to attack.
