I am a corrupt official, but they say I am a loyal minister

Some staggered, their faces turned pale and the corners of their mouths turned blue, obviously suffering from heat stroke.

As for the other soldiers, they were also very uncomfortable.

It was hot everywhere, and there was really no place to enjoy the cool air. Everyone took off their armor and squeezed into the tent listlessly, sweating profusely.

General Gongsun asked around, and thousands of people had already suffered from heat stroke, and the situation was very serious.

So I found King Wuxi and asked, "Your Highness, King Wuxi, it's too hot here, and the old man's soldiers can't take it anymore. Is there any place to escape the heat near here?"

King Wuxi smiled wryly: "My king has already sent someone to check. There is no place to escape the summer heat within a radius of 30 miles! The Phoenix Mountains are 30 miles away. You can escape the heat there, but it's not worth going back and forth!"

General Gongsun nodded: "It's really not worth it!"

The summer resort is too far away, it takes 60 miles to come and go, and it takes a day to walk.

The weather is so hot, you still have to walk for a day, can you bear it?

It's better not to go if you just collapse on the road!

General Gongsun looked up at the sky: "If the weather is this hot, the battle will be impossible!"

King Wuxi said with a smile: "Don't worry, General Gongsun, the weather is indeed abnormal today, but it's not common, just bear with it and it will pass!"

General Gongsun went back helplessly.

Because the weather was too hot, everyone had a poor appetite, so they stopped eating whatever they wanted.

It was finally night, the sun was setting, I thought it would be cooler, and it was indeed cooler, but the temperature was still very high.

Because the earth absorbed the heat and began to dissipate heat.

The weather is 40 degrees, how do you survive?

General Gongsun couldn't stand it again, and took everyone to take a bath in the Wutong River to get rid of the heat.

In the end, I was surprised to find: "Why is there so much less water?"

"It's too hot, it must have been evaporated!" Someone explained.

General Gongsun put his hand into the river and found that it was still scalding hot, and there was no way to take a bath to get rid of the heat.

I could only wipe my body in a hurry, and then went back to rest.

But it was so hot that everyone couldn't sleep well.

On the second day, the sky was as blue as washing, without a trace of cloud, the sun was shining in the sky, and the weather was still dry and hot.

In the morning, the temperature has risen to 40 degrees.

The millions of soldiers looked at the scorching sun above their heads, and their hearts were full of despair. How could they endure this!

General Gongsun, shirtless, turned to King Wuxi again: "Your Highness, when will this weather end?"

"This... this king is not very clear either!" King Wuxi looked at the military adviser next to him.

Mr. Feng Chu, the military adviser, spread his hands and smiled wryly: "This subordinate doesn't know either!"

However, something even worse happened!

A soldier hurried over and reported loudly: "Report to the lord, something is wrong! The Wutong River is dry and there is no water!"

Everyone was shocked: "There is no water? Didn't there be water yesterday? How can I say that if there is no water, it will be gone?"

"The small ones are not very clear..."

Everyone rushed to the Wutong River and found that there was indeed no water.

The bottom of the river is completely exposed, leaving only a few puddles of water.

Everyone's face became serious, this situation is serious!

Water is the source of life. People can go without food for a few days, but they cannot go without drinking water for a few days!

How can people live without water?

How to fight?

"It can't be that the weather is too hot, so it evaporated to dryness?" Someone said cautiously.

"Probably not! Even if the sun is strong, it is impossible to evaporate the river water in one day. There must be a problem upstream, so the flow is cut off, and we must send someone to check!"

King Wuxi immediately dispatched a team of thousands of elite soldiers, led by an innately strong man, to search for the upstream along the river, find out the truth, and solve the problem.

On the Phoenix Mountains, the oblique moon army who had been waiting for a long time became excited.

Princess Ziyue said very happily: "King Wuxi has sent troops here! The scale is about a thousand people, led by a genius! Everyone, be prepared, and we must let them come and go!"

"Yes, Your Royal Highness!"

They lay in ambush near the river, waiting for rabbits.

After about an hour, Wuxi soldiers and horses finally arrived.

The oblique moon army shot without hesitation, and all kinds of rocks and arrows fell for free, causing heavy losses to Wuxi's soldiers and horses.

Wu Xi's innate anger: "Looks like you guys did something good again, I'm going to kill you guys!"

"Then come!" In the slanting moon, four menacing geniuses rushed out.

In the barracks, King Wuxi and General Gongsun waited for a long time, but they did not receive any news.

But at this time, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, but the water is getting less and less.

"What's the matter with General Xu, he hasn't come back for so long?" King Wuxi said dissatisfied.

Mr. Feng Chu, the military adviser, cupped his hands and said: "My lord, you may have encountered some difficult problems, why don't you send some people to check!"

"The military is justified!" King Wuxi sent another soldier.

And told, no matter what problems you encounter, you must come back in half an hour to report.

At the beginning, the situation was fine, but then gradually lost contact.

Everyone feels bad.

King Wuxi's face darkened: "I'm afraid it's more ominous than good! 447"

General Gongsun said: "Could it be that group of rats who did it? These days, they have settled down a lot, and I'm afraid they are holding back something! They may have killed this man, and they also cut off the water!"

"It's very possible!" King Wuxi protested, "It's not too late to send a large army into the Phoenix Mountains! Whether it's the rat army or the water shortage, we'll solve it together!"

"Yes, my lord!"

As a result, an army of 10 people marched mightily into the Phoenix Mountains.

In the Phoenix Mountain Range, the Oblique Moon Army became excited again.

"His Royal Highness, Wu Xi and Da Yue have sent an army into the mountain, and the scale has reached 10 people. Our chance has come!"

Princess Ziyue was very excited: "Yes, our chance has come! This time, we must hit them hard and let them know how good we are! Everyone follows the plan and act separately!"

"Yes, Your Royal Highness!"

At this time, an army of 10 had already entered the Phoenix Mountains.

They are cautious, watching all directions, listening to all directions, and beware of being attacked, but the journey has been surprisingly smooth.

Before he knew it, he had already followed the dry river to the depths of the mountains.

But at this time, the Xieyue people were outside, sprinkled some palm oil, and then set fire to it.

The weather is hot and dry, which makes it easy to catch fire.

With the addition of palm oil, it burns even more vigorously.

In less than a moment, the fire had ignited ragingly, surrounding the entire mountain and spreading upwards.

The army that entered the mountains soon realized that something was wrong and panicked.

"It's on fire, it's on fire!"

"Forest fire, if you don't escape, you will die!"

"Help!!!"

……

Everyone fled in all directions, no longer looking for water.

Princess Ziyue and others at the foot of the mountain looked at the blazing fire and showed a desire for revenge: "Burn them all inside! No one will be left!"

Soon after, the flames shot up into the sky, lighting up the sky! .

Chapter 318 People are gone, water is gone, crazy King Wuxi!

"There is a fire over there, a piece of red flames, it seems to be on fire!"

"Forest fire, what a fire!"

"The Phoenix Mountains are on fire!"

……

On the upper floor of the Phoenix Fortress, everyone shouted.

At this time, Lin Beifan also stayed on the tower, watching the flames filling the sky in the distance, and smiled slightly.

General Zhu, who was standing beside him, frowned: "It's so good... how did it start a fire? And the fire is so big, it burns so fast, it ignites the top of the mountain!"

"The weather is hot and the weather is dry, so it is easy to catch fire!" Lin Beifan smiled and said: "But I feel that this wild fire is unusual, and it may be man-made... How about sending someone to check it? Maybe there will be unexpected things harvest!"

"What Master Lin said is very true!" General Zhu nodded, attaching great importance to Lin Beifan's words.

Because after getting along with each other for the past two days, he found that Lin Beifan was really capable.

He said the hot and dry weather required early preparations.

Sure enough, for two days in a row, the sun was scorching hot, sweating profusely, so hot that I almost collapsed.

Fortunately, some water was prepared, otherwise I don't know how many people would suffer from heat stroke.

He said that putting a copper mirror in the water tank can produce hot water under the scorching sun.

Sure enough, after sunbathing for a long time, the water in the water tank really heated up, and it was scalding hot when you put your hands in it.

So he prepared many water tanks and bronze mirrors to store water.

Now he said that this wildfire is unusual, and there may be unexpected results. General Zhu immediately sent an innate expert to check it out, hoping it will be as he expected.

And this mountain fire was also seen by soldiers and horses of Wuxi and Dayue.

"It's on fire, it's on fire!"

"What a big wildfire!"

"Oh! It's easy to catch fire in hot weather!"

……

After hearing the news, King Wuxi and General Gongsun stepped out of the tent to look around.

The hotter the fire, the stronger the bad feeling in my heart.

Mr. Feng Chu, the military adviser, wiped off his hot sweat, and said in a nasty voice: "That... seems to be the origin of the Wutong River, and our army is going there to investigate the source of water!"

King Wuxi and General Gongsun looked at each other in shock, "The situation is wrong! Something happened!"

Immediately summoned many masters, and rushed to the land of wildfire.

They were all warriors, and they arrived quickly after a distance of tens of miles, but they were stunned by the scene in front of them.

Because the fire was burning so violently, it seemed that the whole mountain was set on fire!

Amidst the raging fire, they vaguely heard some cries and cries for help.

"Our soldiers are really inside!"

"Go and save people!"

……

They rushed into the fire quickly.

I found that my soldiers were trapped in the fire and were running around, hoping to escape from the fire.
