Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

Hearing that King Ye sent his camp to the south, Niu Zhi did not act rashly, and kept watching the changes until his subordinates came to report him seven days later.

"Report to the general, all the troops of the Night King have returned to the Lingzhou territory, and there is not a single soldier left in Tongzhou."

After Niu Zhi and the lieutenants looked at each other for a few times, they all nodded silently. They had discussed this matter enough in the past few days, and they even sent people to Tongzhou.

After some investigation in Tongzhou, it was indeed learned that the several villages that had the vision were all on a line, and that line was the "backline of the earth dragon's spine.

"As long as you avoid the "earth dragon's backline, other places are almost certain to be safe." "Niu Zhi said.

"Indeed." The other three lieutenants also nodded.

Niu Zhi: "Then it's not too late. Today we will move our camp south and enter Tongzhou."

The Night King is cunning, and the Wuyin Mountain is easy to defend but difficult to attack. This should be the reason why the Night King refused to take the initiative to attack Luozhou and retreated to Lingzhou.

The general has spoken, and the lieutenants have no other opinions, so the rest is just a matter of time.

More than ten days later, Niu Zhi led an army of one million to Tongzhou and approached Wuyin Mountain. They avoided the back of the earth dragon and stationed their troops in a safe area under Wuyin Mountain.

"General, my subordinates went down to inspect the mouth of the well where the hot water was coming out, and found that the water there had turned into boiling water. It was as if a fire had been burned at the bottom of the well, boiling the water. It was very strange." The subordinate reported.

"This dragon is probably a fire dragon." Niu Zhi guessed after thinking.

People in ancient times had limited knowledge and regarded earthquakes as earth dragons turning over. Isn't the dragon that can boil water a fire dragon?
"It seems to be." Vice-General Zheng also nodded in agreement, and said worriedly, "Since it is a fire dragon, will it cause a fire when it "turns over"? Do you want to retreat to the sides?"

"No need." Niu Zhi said, "We are stationed in an open place, and we are far enough away, don't worry about it.

Vice General Zheng thought about it, and said nothing more.

In the middle of the night, soldiers patrolling the barracks were lounging by the tents, drowsy, when they suddenly saw a fireball flying from a distance, hit the ground with a bang, and ignited a raging fire.

The soldiers were all awakened, and surrounded the fireball in amazement.

I saw that the burning fireball was red inside, and the fiery red magma began to flow after hitting the ground.

"This, this, what is this?" No one had ever seen such a thing, and everyone turned from surprise to horror.

Someone bravely stepped forward and plunged a knife into the pile of flowing lava. The big knife actually made a sizzling sound, and was quickly melted into molten iron.

"This, this is too scary."

Everyone felt the scorching heat coming, and they all backed away with awe-inspiring faces.

"What's going on?" Niu Zhi got the report and walked out of the tent while putting on his clothes. His eyes were fixed on the fiery red lava that smashed the ground into a deep pit.

A soldier nearby replied, "Reporting to the general, I don't know what happened, it fell from the sky."

Niu Zhi glanced at the dark sky and thought, could it be a flying stone? Didn't this kind of thing fall near Shenjia Village before, causing everyone to be poisoned and sick.

Thinking of this, Niu Zhi took a few steps back, "Take water to put it out."

"Yes, General.'

A strong soldier picked up a bucket of water and splashed it towards the fiery red lava, but in the next second there was only a sound of "puchi". Before he could retract his hand in time, his hand was covered with blisters, and he wailed in pain.

"General, what should we do?" Deputy General Wang asked helplessly as he looked at the fiery red lava that was slowly flowing towards the camp beside him. Wherever the lava passed, the plants and trees were turned into fly ash.

"What else can I do? Unpack all the felt along the direction of its flow." Niu Zhi could only order.

As soon as he gave an order, a group of soldiers went over and began to unpack the felt bags.

"Take care of things by yourself, don't make a fuss and wake up the general." Niu Zhi yawned and went to sleep after finishing speaking.

Niu Zhi walked into the tent with his eyes closed and was about to lie down on the bed when suddenly there was a loud noise that made his ears buzz and even the ground trembled violently.

While he was still in shock, a subordinate rushed in in a panic.

"Da Da, General, it's not good, go out and have a look."

The subordinate hadn't finished speaking, "pa~~" With a loud sound, a fireball directly smashed into the tent, and the flames in the tent shot into the sky.

"Run away, General." The subordinate shouted urgently, and the two hurriedly stumbled out of the felt bag.

When I got out of the yurt, I saw countless fireballs spraying from the west, like huge fireworks blooming one after another, illuminating the entire night sky like daytime.

And the distance of these fireballs just covered the barracks on the east and west sides.

At this moment, the western military camp where Niu Zhi was located fell into countless fireballs. Countless tents were hit by the fireballs and fell into a sea of ​​flames. The entire military camp was in chaos.

"Help, help." A soldier was on fire and fell at Niu Zhi's feet, rolling and crying in pain, while in the distance, more people were struggling in the flames.

"General, what should we do?" The subordinate was trembling with fright.

Niu Zhi had never seen such a scene before. He stared at the terrified eyes and murmured in a daze, "This is fire spouting from hell. Someone must have relieved the anger of the heavens. It's over, everything is over."

After a while, he waved his arms and shouted, "Retreat, retreat, retreat north quickly."

After receiving the order to retreat, countless soldiers rushed out of the flames and staggered towards the north.

After they left the barracks, the 'fireworks' in the west also stopped blooming, and only then did everyone dare to stop and watch.

In the distance, there is a huge volcano standing in the night sky. The volcano is like a "fire stream" pouring down in all directions, and everywhere it goes, a raging fire is ignited, illuminating half of the night sky.

"What the hell is that?" The soldiers froze in place, looking at the red volcano in the west, at a loss.

"I've grown up so much, I've never seen this kind of scene." A veteran said tremblingly.

"No one has seen it, and it has never been written in the book." Someone answered.

"General, do you want to withdraw?" The subordinate again asked General Niu who was standing there in a daze.

"Most of the food and grass have been burned. If we retreat, the Night King may take advantage of the victory to pursue~~" Niu Zhi was too flustered, but he calmed down when he saw that the fireball had stopped erupting. .do not retreat.'
"Since the disaster has already broken out, there is nothing to be afraid of. We should attack Lingzhou as soon as possible and end the battle quickly."

The subordinates were ordered to report, but almost all the camp tents were burned, and some food and grass were rescued, which could barely last for a few days.

So this battle must be fought, and he has no way out.
