Chapter 30
If you have good vision at this time and watch from the air, you will find such a two-dimensional scene: densely packed people on the road at the bottom of the valley form a long line, like a narrow river.Then, the river at the bottom of the valley seemed to break its bank on both sides, and the river quickly spread to both sides, and the river bed became wider and wider.

As more and more soldiers from the two sides went up to the valley, the battlefield became wider and wider, and it tended to cover the entire Luotuo Ridge.

Almost all the cavalry of the Xiliang Army became infantry.The two sides collided in the valley road and on the valley, and the killing was extremely fierce.

Qin Yi's side is about to be affected.With the expansion of the battle area, the soldiers on both sides were almost approaching the height of Qin Yi's ambush.

At this time, Qin Yi finally calmed down, he did not expect that the coalition forces would come back.However, judging from the current battle situation, this abnormal move of the coalition forces seems to be promising.

"Marquis, let's kill him!" The village chief urged Qin Yi again.

Qin Yi pursed his lips and said hesitantly: "Wait a minute. We are being used as surprise troops. The situation of the battle is unknown at the moment, so it is not appropriate to move lightly."

"But we have been exposed long ago, and the Xiliang army is coming soon." The village chief said again.

"What do you know! Being exposed doesn't mean you can't play the role of a surprise soldier." Qin Yi reprimanded angrily, "Our terrain is steep, and the Xiliang army will not be able to climb up for a while."

After being reprimanded by Qin Yi, the head of the village did not dare to speak.

Qin Yi's eyes looked back and forth across the battlefield.Looking at it, he suddenly realized that the situation was not good.

The battle line seems to be advancing eastward. In other words, Lao Cao and the others are slowly retreating?

That's right, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the coalition army is not as good as that of the Xiliang army.At this moment, it is a frontal battle, and the coalition forces are likely to retreat.

In war, morale is a very important factor.Once one party's morale is frustrated and at a disadvantage, the situation can easily turn sharply downward.

Especially in a situation similar to an encounter like tonight, the two armies have no formation, most of the soldiers are fighting independently, the officers are not able to command smoothly, and the victory or defeat depends entirely on the individual combat strength of the soldiers.

When they first joined the battle, the soldiers of the coalition army were able to step forward bravely, but when their own side suffered setbacks in the battle, their will to fight gradually faded away.

Finally, someone's will to fight collapsed, turned around and ran back.With the first comes the second, the third, and more.

Under the chain reaction, less than a quarter of an hour after the battle, the coalition forces suddenly collapsed.

The tide of soldiers fled to the east, and the officers were also engulfed in it. No matter how loud they shouted, they couldn't stop the army from falling like a mountain.

The situation took a turn for the worse, the coalition soldiers collapsed like an avalanche, and generals such as Cao Cao, Bao Xin, and Xiahou Dun were unable to save their lives.They were also surrounded by the rout and fled eastward.

One after another, the morale of the Xiliang army was soaring, and each one of them seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, yelling and chasing eastward.

Qin Yi's side has not fought with the Xiliang army until now. Maybe they are at a high place and the Xiliang army has no time to climb up; Order tasteless.

Standing on a high place, Qin Yi felt like crying when he saw that the coalition army was defeated again.

Lao Cao, what are you doing!You finally escaped, why are you coming back?If you seek death, I will not stop you, but you cannot seek death at this time. My fate is tied to yours!

"Marquis Jun, shall we withdraw too?" The village chief next to Qin Yi ran out again to show his presence.

Qin Yi didn't bother to pay attention to this person, his brain was running fast at the moment, thinking about how to stop the Xiliang army from chasing and killing the coalition army.

If the Xiliang army is not stopped, judging from this situation, the coalition forces are likely to be defeated this time. It is hard to say whether Lao Cao can survive.After all, because of his own interference, the encounter tonight is no longer the one in the original history.

Even if Lao Cao finally escaped with his life as in the original history, his army is probably lost, and his mission still cannot be completed.

"Hiss—" Qin Yi, who was thinking hard, suddenly felt a burning sensation on his cheeks.

He suddenly came back to his senses and found that the head of the village who had spoken to him just now was holding a torch and approaching his face.

Qin Yi stepped back quickly, away from the torch.

"what are you doing?"

"Let me see if you are asleep, Marquis Jun." The village chief said in a sly voice, "Did you hear what I just said... Marquis Jun? Marquis Jun?"

The head of the village noticed that Qin Yi was staring at the torch in his hand in a daze.

"Fire! I have an idea!"

Qin Yi yelled out of nowhere, startling the head of the village.

…………

Cao Cao rode on his horse and followed the defeated troops to the east, feeling regretful in his heart.It’s all my fault for being greedy for merit and underestimating the enemy, otherwise how could I have suffered such a defeat!
"Meng De, you can't run away like this. The Xiliang army is too fast in pursuit. If we don't stop, we will be caught up by them sooner or later."

Bao Xin, who was keeping pace with Cao Cao, shouted loudly.

Cao Cao glanced back at the discomfited army behind him, and responded to Bao Dao with a wry smile: "Now, can your and my orders be carried out?"

Bao Xin also turned his head and looked back.

Turning around, he just screamed: "Meng De, look quickly, there seems to be a fire behind!"

Afterwards, the two reined in their horses together and looked behind.

Behind them was a large group of soldiers running for their lives in a panic; behind them was the forward of the Xiliang Army who was chasing after them.Not far behind the Xiliang Army forward, Cao Cao and Bao Xin saw smoke billowing.

It was indeed on fire.This fire was set by Qin Yi.

Qin Yi's more than 700 soldiers, after Qin Yi's order, all gathered together and threw the torches in their hands to the bottom of the valley.

Condescending, hundreds of torches fell, and a volcano immediately piled up on the valley road.

Immediately afterwards, the soldiers under Qin Yi threw out a second wave of torches, which all fell on the slope of the valley.

At this time of year, the grass and trees have not yet turned green, and the dead grass and dead trees are instantly ignited.

Tonight, the mountain wind is very strong.Anyone who has let go of a wildfire knows that in a windy weather, as long as a small fire is lit, a large area will be ignited immediately.

This is exactly what happened at this time.The wind helped the fire, and the small flames were blown by the strong wind, and suddenly turned into a group of fires, and they were connected into pieces in an instant.Amidst the crackling of the wild grass and dead trees, a fire dragon was formed that blocked the entire valley horizontally.

Although the torches could not be thrown into the opposite valley, the fire at the bottom of the valley burned the most. The mountain wind happened to blow towards the opposite side, and the fire at the bottom of the valley quickly spread to the opposite valley by the force of the wind.

Within a few breaths of time, a fire zone about ten meters wide was formed in the middle section of Luotuoling from south to north.

The Xiliang army in the fire zone, those who saw the opportunity quickly could still flee in panic before the fire burned them; those who were slow to react could only suffer the pain of the fire.

The Xiliang army, which was chasing the coalition army, was cut off by the raging fire, and it was hard to see from the beginning to the end.

To the east of the fire zone, nearly a thousand Xiliang troops in the vanguard stopped their pursuit.They turned around and stared blankly at the fire not far behind them, listening to the screams of their comrades who could not escape in the flames.

The coalition soldiers who were being pursued also stopped one after another, and they also turned back to the east, staring at the fire in a daze.

It's incredible, who set this fire?This person is too ruthless!

"Hahaha, it must be Tianyu who set the fire!" Cao Cao looked up to the sky and laughed, "Boys, go back and annihilate these Xiliang troops who are chasing us!"

Cao Cao roared and turned his horse back.

Bao Xin reached out his hand quickly, grabbed Cao Cao's sleeve, and said anxiously: "Meng De can't do it, don't go back again, when we go back, don't we suffer another disastrous defeat?"

Bao Xin was terrified.Tonight, the coalition forces attacked the Xiliang army twice, but they both left in excitement and fled back in panic.Including yesterday's event, he has made three advances and lost three times.

"Haha, Yuncheng, this time is different from the previous two times. The Xiliang army chasing after us has been cut off by the fire. There is no way to retreat and no help."

After speaking, Cao Cao suddenly opened his sleeves, turned his horse back, pulled out the long sword from his waist, pointed to the east, and shouted again: "My sons, the time for revenge has come, kill all the Xiliang troops!"

"Kill all the Xiliang army—"

The soldiers of the coalition army shouted, and rushed towards this part of Xiliang's lone army on the east side of the sea of ​​fire.

On the west side of the sea of ​​fire, Xu Rong's eyes were also burning with fierce flames.

He was going crazy. Seeing a great victory in sight, the road was blocked by a fire.Moreover, he had nearly a thousand forward soldiers who were separated from the east side of the sea of ​​fire and unable to come back.There were also two or three hundred soldiers who died in the sea of ​​fire.

The fire continues to spread, and the fire zone is getting wider and wider.The Xiliang army on the west side of the sea of ​​fire retreated westward little by little.

"It's a failure...withdraw!" Xu Rong looked at the fire and sighed, and finally gave the order to withdraw.

 The weather is getting colder and colder. The heating is not working well this year, and the room is not warm at all. Every night I am shivering with cold.After finally insisting on coding [-] characters, call it a day!
