Chapter 279
But something even more terrifying happened; the dense Chu army had been stained with a lot of alcohol the moment the wine jars shattered.
Under the cover of thousands of flaming arrows, some ordinary Chu soldiers also ignited flames!
They were terrified, rolling desperately on the ground, but more soldiers, in their pain, ignored everything and headed to the side.
"Save me!"
Some Rattan Armor soldiers panicked suddenly, "Get away, get away!"
A Rattan Armor soldier was accidentally stained by the flames on his comrade's body, and almost instantly, the rattan armor ignited!
And such a scene was happening everywhere!
These Rattan Armor soldiers mixed in the vanguard suffered a huge blow.
On the ground, a wall of fire swept through suddenly!
"Ah, ah, ah!"
"It hurts, it hurts so much!"
"Save me, save me!"
The Chu army's formation was instantly in chaos, and shrill screams echoed throughout the battlefield.
The beauties, gold and silver jewelry, and silk of Changancheng did indeed arouse the greed in their hearts, making them forget the fear of death.
But at this moment, the shrill screams aroused the deepest fear in their hearts!
Especially for the Rattan Armor soldiers, their strongest protection in the past had now become the thing that took their lives!
The raging flames rose suddenly, burning everything!
Everywhere were familiar faces!
Chu army, center camp!
The moment Chu Qingluan saw the jars of wine explode, she realized something was wrong.
When thousands of flaming arrows swept out like a giant net, she stood up straight suddenly, her expression ugly!
"My Rattan Armor soldiers!"
She was heartbroken, her delicate body trembling.
Chu Tianfeng's expression was also ugly; he could not help but ask, "What was in those jars?"
"I smelled the aroma of wine; could it be fine wine, but why does it burn so fiercely?"
Chu Tianfeng was full of confusion and shock.
At this time, the messenger also hurried forward, "Report!"
"Reporting to the Second Princess, the armies at the South Gate, North Gate, and West Gate of Changancheng have all suffered fire attacks, and the offensive is blocked!"
"I ask the Second Princess to decide quickly!"
Chu Qingluan frowned.
"The wine in these jars is definitely not normal; this is trouble!"
She naturally knew where the flaws of the Rattan Armor soldiers were; she originally wanted to catch Great Qian off guard, and once they climbed the city wall with scaling ladders, the combat power of the Rattan Armor soldiers would be terrifying, but she did not expect Great Qian to start with wine and fire arrows.
Her ace army started at hell difficulty!
"Who is the commander of Great Qian? With such a fire attack, is he not afraid of divine retribution?"
"He doesn't follow any rules of siege!"
Chu Tianfeng could not help but curse.
Chu Qingluan forced herself to calm down, her gaze cold and gloomy.
"Who else could it be, only that Great Qian Living Yama!"
"At this speed, he must have been prepared long ago; in other words, from the beginning, he prepared this vicious plan!"
"That wine must have been processed; wine plus fire arrows, he was thinking of fire attack from the very beginning!"
"My Rattan Armor soldiers were just rushing to be burned by him!"
Chu Qingluan thought of this, and her expression became even uglier.
On the front line, she knew without thinking that the Rattan Armor soldiers must be miserable!
Chu Tianfeng's expression was ugly, "The formation is in chaos, Second Princess, should we continue to attack?"
Chu Qingluan took a deep breath, her face ferocious.
"Changancheng is empty; how can we easily withdraw in the first battle of the siege? This is a huge blow to the morale of the whole army!"
"Beat the war drums, advance the whole army!"
"I don't believe this Living Yama is really not afraid of divine retribution!"
Boom, boom, boom.
The dull sound of war drums rang out, carrying the horn of attack.
In the Chu vanguard, a Chu general heard the drums, and he said ferociously, "Kill for me!"
"Those who retreat, behead!"
Saying this, he killed a retreating soldier with one sword, his face full of murderous intent.
The Chu soldiers had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to attack.
Atop the walls of Changancheng.
Looking down from above, this was a shocking scene; the raging flames, like fire snakes, swept and spread across the entire battlefield.
Especially the Rattan Armor soldiers, whether they were hit by burning arrows or stained by the flames on their comrades, they were extremely miserable.
At this moment, Wu Zhao and Shangguan Wan'er were shocked.
The court officials felt their scalps go numb.
This was absolutely a scene like purgatory, constantly impacting their minds.
They could not help but look at Gao Yang's back.
Too ruthless!
This really turned the Chu army and those Rattan Armor soldiers into barbecue.
Wu Zhao looked forward, her phoenix eyes shaking.
Qin Zhenguo's face was complex, "Oil burns when it meets fire; once these Rattan Armor soldiers are hit by arrows, the rattan armor cannot be taken off, and they will surely die!"
"This plan came from his hand, but the style is not like him; such a fire attack will probably suffer backlash!"
These words of Qin Zhenguo, although a sigh, rang in Wu Zhao's heart like muffled thunder.
A vicious advisor plans for himself; Gao Yang proposed many vicious plans, but in the end, he only proposed them, and whether to use them was her business.
But burning the Chu army, he did not change his expression, and he did not even ask her.
Could it be...
Wu Zhao squinted her eyes, her phoenix eyes falling on Gao Yang's back.
Gao Yang's gaze looked straight ahead, his expressionless face.
Burning the Chu army, but being able to save millions of people in Changancheng, is this merit or sin?
In his line of sight, the Chu army was closer.
Gao Yang's gaze was indifferent, his eyes devoid of any emotion, "Smash them for me!"
The Chu army was like an ant nest, endless.
A whole area died in front, and there were even flames on the battlefield, but it could not stop the Chu army's footsteps!
They were not yet terrified.
Then kill until they are terrified!
Following Gao Yang's voice, the small catapults threw jars of strong liquor into the battlefield again.
Slap!
The wine jars smashed on the Chu army, smashed on the ground, and shattered; high-concentration alcohol flowed out with a sky-high aroma of wine.
For a time.
Countless Chu soldiers' pupils shrank.
If the first time they were unprepared, then this time, it directly aroused the deepest fear in their hearts!
"Not good, run!"
"Run!"
"Fire, that fire is here again!"
The Chu soldiers were terrified; among the crowd, Liu Sanji was even more panicked.
As a Rattan Armor soldier, he no longer had his usual pride in his heart; on the contrary, an indescribable fear spread in his heart.
