Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 278
All the way to the watchtower in the east of the city, Fei Qian and others were discovered by the soldiers stationed on the watchtower.

Huang Cheng and a few experts saw that they had been spotted, so without saying a word, he drew his sword and rushed into the observation platform, and went up the stairs of the observation platform to attack!
Outside the Wangqi Tower is the mountain. Although it is steeper, it is not too difficult to climb down. As long as you repeat the old trick and hang down with a rope, you can escape Hangu Pass smoothly!

The sounds of fighting above his head subsided quickly, Huang Cheng showed his head, and greeted him, obviously he had already dealt with the few soldiers on the top of the stage...

All the people filed in and went to look at the platform.

Fei Qian was touching the wall, taking advantage of the faint light coming in from the windows on both sides, walking up the steps inside the watchtower, and suddenly saw some objects like wine jars placed in the inner ear room of the watchtower. And there seems to be a special smell in the air...

Fei Qian walked up to the jars, lifted the lid of one of the jars, took a little liquid inside and sniffed it, and was shocked, it turned out to be kerosene!
What the hell!

Fei Qian saw that Huang Xu was about to come over holding a torch, so he quickly shouted, "Don't come over! It's kerosene!"

The movements of the people who were immediately frightened froze for a moment, and their eyes all focused on the ear chamber, feeling a little creepy!

If a little bit of sparks splashed here just now...

And there is still so much kerosene stored here!No wonder no torches were lit on the watch platform, making it so easy for Fei Qian and the others to dive close.

The kerosene here obviously exceeds the storage capacity of general Guancheng.

There was no oil refining in the Han Dynasty. Fire oil was generally refined from plant or animal fats, so the cost was not low. It was really not an easy task to collect so much fire oil...

"Be careful!" In fact, without Fei Qian's special reminder, everyone passed this section of the road carefully, especially Huang Xu, who was holding a torch, quickly retreated, threw the torch away, and then boarded Hope platform.

Fei Qian climbed up the lookout platform, the lookout platform is not big, but the parapet walls around it are built quite high, protruding beyond the east wall, and in the middle of the watchtower, a small turret was built, five or six A dead body was lying on the ground, Huang Cheng was standing in a corner of the watchtower, and was pulling the parapet to look outside Hangu Pass...

The Wangqi Tower, like the Jiming Tower, is an independent building protruding from the east wall, which is used to expand the attack surface for the attack on the east wall.From the perspective of the observatory, you can just see the dark Dongcheng Gate.

Wangqi Tower is the innermost turret, and Jiming Tower is lower. Although it is almost impossible to climb to Jiming Tower and Wangqi Tower from outside Hangu Pass, but sliding down the mountain, although The inclination is a bit bigger, but you only need to master the angle, and there are ropes to assist in slowing down...

Although the rope is obviously not long enough, it is already enough. It is only as high as one person, and even if you jump directly to the end of the rope, as long as you pay attention, the danger is not too great...

Fei Qian looked back at the chaotic scene in Hangu Pass. The fire in the public treasury in the inner city attracted many people's attention, and those soldiers who originally searched on the street gathered in the city and then turned to search in the valley south of the city...

Zheng Guanling, you gave me a fire before, now it's my turn to give you back a fire, a big fire...

It would still be a bit of a psychological burden if you want to burn food and grass, but now burning the city gates, well, there will still be a little bit, and there will be some destructive little excitement.

Everyone has a desire to destroy, and Fei Qian is no exception. However, in the teaching and social life of later generations, even burning some waste paper with a small match will attract a lot of attention, let alone This mass arson has gone on.

but now……

Although most of the east wall is made of earth and stone bricks, there are still some things made of wood, such as Lei Mu and the gate tower.

After walking around the death line tonight, the tyranny in Fei Qian's heart was aroused.

burn!burn!burn!
It seemed that there was a voice in his heart that kept shouting wildly. Fei Qian looked around. The sound of slashing and killing just now clearly made some soldiers realize that something was wrong here. At this moment, several people are running into the city. It should be Reported to Zheng Chu, and there are one or two team leaders who are organizing some manpower and are coming...

Well, there is still time!

Fei Qian asked Huang Xu to pick up a few of the torches thrown outside the watchtower and throw them outside the pass, and asked most of the people, mainly those with bird blindness, to hang down from the watchtower and leave Hangu Pass first. .

While asking the people outside the pass to pick up the torches and tear some of their clothes off to make rockets, they asked those who were still on the watchtower to remove the lid of the kerosene jar, and then let it roll forward along the city wall, spilling a stream of water. A long streak of oil comes out...

Anyway, there are many kerosene jars, and Fei Qian is like an abstract painter, letting people splash kerosene at will.

"There is still a city gate!" Fei Qian shouted pointing at the east gate of Hangu Pass, anyway, it has been exposed now, so there is no need to hide it!
Huang Cheng picked up a jar of kerosene, turned it upside down, and poured a small half of the jar towards the inside of the east wall, then shook it back and forth twice, and as soon as he let go, the half jar of kerosene flew obliquely into the door opening , "cracked" and smashed into one, and the fire oil splashed...

Fei Qian quickly helped pick up a jar and poured it inside the east city wall. Anyway, this side of the east city wall is Zheng Cui's government office, so there is no burden to burn it.

Huang Cheng and Huang Xu took turns throwing jars of kerosene into the gate. Although each time it was only about half a jar, after throwing seven or eight jars in a row, the entire gate of the city was covered with kerosene.

Seeing that the soldiers in the pass were gradually gathered under Zheng Chu's command, and were heading towards this side, Fei Qian smiled, and finally kicked two jars, and greeted him, grabbing the rope hanging from the watchtower , swinging down, but because he didn't control the strength well, he swung a little higher, had to bump into the city wall twice, and got down Hangu Pass with his teeth and mouth cracked.

Then the few people who stayed on the watchtower came down one by one. Huang Cheng stayed at the end and watched the soldiers swarming over the east wall. The nearest one was almost at the watchtower, so he laughed and turned over. , holding the rope with one hand, pedaling continuously on the mountain with both feet, slowing down the speed, and landing gracefully, compared with Fei Qian's embarrassed appearance.

As soon as Huang Cheng landed on the ground, he grabbed the lighted bow and arrow handed over by the person beside him...

The rocket drew a mysterious and mysterious trace, and landed on the lookout platform like an antelope's horns. Almost instantly, the flame exploded and spread rapidly along the trace of kerosene!
From the watchtower to the city gate in the east, most of the east city wall was engulfed in raging fire!In this way, even if Zheng Chu wants to go out and chase after him, he has to wait until the flames of the city gate are extinguished before he can do anything. Now, he can only stare blankly...

Fei Qian shouted loudly: "It's indecent to come and not to go! Thank you for your kindness!"

Huang Cheng and others then shouted: "It's rude to come and not to go! Thank you for your kindness! Hahahaha!"

The flames were steaming, and Zheng Cui's face was a little distorted...

　PS: The temperature is high these days, it is really uncomfortable to bake...

　　It seems that it makes sense that the great people in the Three Kingdoms like to use fire. I think I am already half-cooked now, and I still write articles that are all about flames. It is simply self-harm...
