Lord Moyu was forced to open

Chapter 249: The flame that blazes through half the sky!Burn the city!

"It's not good! It's not good! Your Highness the Fourth Prince, the north city wall has collapsed!"

Needless to say, as the main entrance of Delcie City, Anaro is always paying attention to the situation on the north wall, and he can still calm down when the north wall is washed away by explosives.

It's a big deal not to send people up, just wait until they finish blowing up.

But the collapse of the city wall was beyond his expectation.

The reason why he dared to defend the city in front of these terrifying Tianyun people with 13 troops was because he had confidence in Delxi's city wall.

The entire city wall of Dersey had been added after he came. The height of eight meters and the huge wall of a full two feet wide gave him enough confidence.

But he didn't expect the people of Tianyun country to be so powerful.

Their terrifying weapons actually forcibly smashed down the northern city wall of Dersey!
It collapsed!
Now that a city wall has collapsed, it means that Delsey City is like a beautiful woman who has taken off her clothes and can be slaughtered!
There is no point in defending the city anymore!

After understanding the crux of the matter, Anaro did not hesitate, and immediately ordered the soldiers stationed on other city walls to be called back.

Now that things have come to this point, he can only rely on the number of people in his hands and his familiarity with the city to wage a war of attrition with the opponent!
I have 13 people, but there are only [-] on the other side, and [-] are still cavalry, which cannot be used in places like the city.

On my own side, I might seize the opportunity and be able to counter-kill the opponent.

And he himself was escorted by the personal guard battalion to the safe rear after arranging the policy of resistance to street fighting every step of the way.

As soon as the northern city wall collapsed here, Guan Ning knew that the opportunity had come, and without hesitation, except for the [-] cavalry who kept them outside the city, the other [-] infantry immediately marched into the city of Dercy.

When the army approached, the soaring smoke caused by the collapse of the city wall gradually dissipated.

The scene in the city clearly appeared before everyone's eyes. Unlike Guan Ning's imagination, the fourth prince Anaro, who was poisoned, did not gather an army here to fight them decisively as soon as the city wall collapsed.

On the contrary, there was no one behind the collapsed city wall except for those corpses crushed to death by the city wall.

Seeing this scene, Guan Ning frowned immediately, and he understood why this happened.

There is only one possibility!
The opponent didn't want to fight them head-on and chose to fight them in the street.

And this is undoubtedly a very smart choice, no matter in terms of weapons or personnel quality, the expeditionary force is far superior to the army under Anaro, he has no chance at all in frontal combat, it just delays the time of death.

On the contrary, if they choose to fight in the streets, relying on their familiarity with the city of Dersey and the fact that they have far more people than the expeditionary army, they might be able to turn defeat into victory. Huge casualties.

Leaving the city to fight with the defending side is the last thing the siege side wants to encounter. In such a situation, there is almost nothing to do except to fight hard!
Guan Ning frowned deeply. Looking at the scene in front of him, he hadn't issued an order for the army to attack for a long time. He knew that once the order was given, the [-] infantry under him would have to fight in this narrow alley with the enemy who was most familiar with the terrain. The bloodiest battle is going on inside, even if they are fully armed, they will not be able to come back if they are not careful.

This is not a scene he would like to see, and he does not want such casualties.

But what should he do?

While he was hesitating, the adjutant saw that he hadn't issued an order for a long time, and after a little thought, he understood his general's concerns, and also frowned.

But when he looked at the soldiers behind him, and at the houses in Dersey, which were mostly thatched huts and wooden buildings, an idea that can be said to be extremely vicious in Da Song's opinion appeared in his mind. among.

At first he also hesitated whether to do this or not?
But then he thought, anyway, this is not the territory of Song Dynasty, let alone any force under King Yun's command.

This is the territory of the enemy country, and all they have to do is to help the Poison King destroy this rebel army. As for the methods used to eliminate this rebel army, it is not important, and it is not something they need to consider.

The only thing they need to consider is how to bring back these brothers behind them more completely.

Instead of letting them make unnecessary sacrifices here for outsiders!

After making a decision, the adjutant Wu Yan immediately came to Guan Ning who was still frowning and thinking. After glancing at the observation group, he whispered his thoughts in Guan Ning's ear.

Guan Ning, who was originally worried, was startled when he heard Wu Yan's suggestion, and looked at his adjutant in disbelief, wondering why he would come up with such a vicious plan.

But then he looked at the soldiers behind him again, and the balance in his heart gradually tilted to the side of the soldiers.

He was from the Song Dynasty, and he was even under King Yun's command.

The life of the poisonous person is not something he should consider, he just needs to take care of the [-] brothers under him.

Let others talk about the rest, even if it's just to get more soldiers back to Yunzhou County, let him bear the notoriety!
Guan Ning is not indecisive, since he has already made a decision, he will not waste any more time.

Immediately, people went to prepare oil and fire starters.

Not long after, a large amount of wood and straw were found by the soldiers sent out.

A batch of oil was also found in a nearby private house.

Under Guan Ning's order, the soldiers evenly piled up the wood and straw on the houses in the front row of Delxi City.

Then poured oil on top.

Finally, after Guan Ning took two deep breaths, he gave an order to light all the igniters that had been poured with oil!

The kindling that is easy to catch fire is easier to ignite after being poured with oil.

In the blink of an eye, the raging fire began to burn violently!

Under the shocked eyes of the observation group, the entire city of Delcie began to be ignited!

Only then did everyone understand that Guan Ning decided to set fire to the city in order to reduce his own casualties!
The entire city of Delcie is almost entirely made of wooden buildings!

This fire can't be easily extinguished!

Maybe the whole of Delcie will be burned to the ground!
The officers of the observation group were in a hurry. They rushed to Guan Ning angrily, and asked angrily:
"General Guan! What are you doing? Don't you know the consequences of doing this?
The whole Delcie will be completely burned by your fire!
You are acting like a devil!

You will be punished by the gods!

Get someone to put out the fire, and absolutely don't let the fire spread! "

However, in the face of their questioning and their request to let Guan Ning put out the fire, Guan Ning just looked at them with a blank face, half-closed his eyes and did not make a sound.

After a long time, when the voices of these people reached the highest level, Guan Ning finally replied coldly.

"so what?"

The officers of the observation group silenced their voices like chickens being choked, and looked at Guan Ning in disbelief.

Guan Ning continued: "The rebels can only be blamed for all this, they insisted on continuing to resist, which made this general helpless.

None of this would have happened had he been willing to fight us head-on, or surrender.

But he chose the most stupid way.

Because of his choice, I can only do this. "

"But you can clearly send troops in to hunt down the rebels, why set fire to the city?!"

Immediately, a poisoned officer from the observation group questioned.

"Why am I doing this?"

Guan Ning asked with a sneer.

"You clearly promised to help us defeat the rebels." The officer replied.

Guan Ning nodded: "Yes, we promised, aren't we defeating them?

It's just not your method, but our method. "

After a pause, Guan Ning's face suddenly became gloomy, and he said coldly:
"Although we promised you to help you defeat the rebels, it doesn't mean that you can order us, you have to understand!
You are the loser!
Helping you clean up the rebels, this is our favor to you, but it is not our obligation!
We have no obligation to pay for you the huge casualties that such a battle must pay!

So please shut up now!Honestly wait for me to finish this battle, and you can take back Delcie again!
As for the others, you don't have any right to choose now, understand! ? "

Guan Ning's words immediately woke up the people in the observation group, and they reacted.

That's right, how dare they question the general of the Tianyun Kingdom, they were the defeated side, and even paid a huge price to reluctantly sign an armistice agreement with the other side.

If the other party tore up the armistice agreement due to the impulsiveness of himself and others, then the eldest prince will definitely tear them up, and they will also become sinners who are poisoned.

Today's Delcy City is under the influence of the fourth prince. Since the fourth prince chose this way of resistance, the other party chose to set fire to the city.

Then just push everything to the fourth prince.

There is absolutely no need for them to turn against each other because of this.

Anyway, the only ones who died were the rebels and the dispensable and lowly spinning tops. It was no big deal, as long as they got back the city of Delcie.

After figuring this out, all the officers in the observation group retreated honestly, not daring to say anything more in front of Guan Ning.

And Guan Ning ignored them and continued to command the army to burn the city!

Endless flames burned blazingly in Delxi, and soon the entire northern city was ignited, forming a sea of ​​flames!
Those poisoned soldiers hiding in the alley and those poisoned civilians hiding in their homes escaped because of the fire.

However, when they escaped, they realized that they were already in a sea of ​​flames. Not only their house, but the entire Beicheng district was set ablaze!
They can't escape!

In the raging fire, there were countless wailing and screaming, it was the wailing of a poisoned person!That is the last echo of the poisoned man in the fire!

However, all of these will eventually be completely annihilated by the fire!
