Southern Ming, my destiny is too abstract

Chapter 36 The Ming Dynasty is mighty, kill!

Mangbai's accomplice was exposed.

Of course it will be exposed.

Zhu Cixuan prepared to burn down the entire ancient city of Tong.

To prevent harm to innocent people.

The city gates were opened and everyone in the city except the Ming army was released.

The ancient people, the monks who betrayed Mangbai, and Princess Binya.

Even Ranai, who had just become the King of Toungoo, saw the vast army of flood sands stretching out outside the city, and knew that the ancient city had become a dead city.

They all risked being beheaded by Mangbai and followed their aunt out of the city.

As a result, you are a deputy general, Aung Lai.

He did not want the throne of Toungoo.

Give up the chance to escape.

Some of the Sanqing troops took advantage of the chaos to escape from the city.

If you are not the accomplice, who is?
Through Ma Bao, he learned about Mang Bai's overall plan.

Zhu Cixuan was still wondering who in the ancient city was Mang Bai's accomplice.

The old monk who rejected the king, the seemingly honest Ranai?
As a result, Aung Lai was exposed nakedly.

After releasing the civilian monks in the city, Deng Kai was arrested for interrogation.

This time, my insider is more powerful than your insider.

Although Deng Kai was born into a military family, he still explored some torture methods when he was engaged in Sanqing Education.

"Your Highness, Aung Lai has spoken, saying there are four tunnels in the city."

"Mang Bai told him to feign surrender by offering the city, and then use a tunnel to transport 5,000 soldiers from outside the city to ambush inside and create chaos, and then attack Tonggu with the help of both inside and outside forces."

Deng Kai hesitated for a while and tried to persuade again:

"Your Highness, why don't you pretend to be a Hongsha person and escape through the tunnel."

Zhu Cixuan shook his head and pointed at the platinum wheel flag:

"They want to go to the city, so why can't we go to their camp?"

"Going deep into the enemy camp, can't I still behead Mang Bai?"

"Gather all the kerosene in the city and burn the place where the Hongsha tribe is revived today to seize their luck and strengthen our Ming Dynasty."

……

"Where's General Aung Hlaing?"

General Hongsha, who had already ambushed in the Tonggu Palace, asked.

"The Crown Prince of Ming is wary of Hongsha's surrendered soldiers, so he has been stationing the general on the west gate wall. The Ming soldiers are keeping a close eye on him, and the general can't escape."

General Hongsha nodded slightly and said, "Tell Aung Lai."

"When the army outside the city attacks, we will capture Tonggu, and then we will go find the Crown Prince of Ming."

"Let him lead his men out of the city to attack the eastern camp, and we'll open a path for him."

"Once we reach the eastern camp, we will directly kill anyone who leaves the city today. We must ensure that Princess Binya dies in the chaos."

Hongsha Bing, who had been rewarded with a title for his meritorious service at Shiqiao, bowed:
"I obey your orders, General. There are still over 10,000 Ming troops in the city. General Aung Lai asked me to bring some tung oil teak and place it outside the palace."

"The general can set fires and create chaos."

General Hongsha chuckled and said, "Fire attack? Anlai and the king agree on this."

General Hongsha took 1,500 soldiers to rest on the spot and wait for dark.

Time flies by amid the cawing of crows.

It was getting dark.

General Hongsha listened to the noise of the siege outside the city. After hearing a deafening roar, he immediately called his soldiers.

"Where's that Hongsha soldier from Anlai?"

"General, after speaking with you, he left the palace and never returned."

General Hongsha frowned slightly.

What to go for?

Didn't Aung Lai let him lead the way?

Fortunately, there is no shortage of Tonggu locals in the army.

Find a few guides in a short while.

General Hongsha divided his men into two groups.

The deputy general led 500 soldiers to set fire and cause chaos, so he led 1,000 soldiers and rushed straight to the east gate to open the city gate.

However, just as he had made the arrangements, he heard a cry of surprise.

"The General's palace is on fire."

"Who started the fire? Now that you have attracted the attention of the Ming army, you will be punished severely. Behead him immediately."

"General, it's not inside the palace, it's outside the palace, where Aung Lai has people store tung oil."

"What?" General Hongsha was shocked and pushed away the soldier in front of him.

They saw a wall of fire suddenly rising outside the palace, blocking them inside the house.

"Are all the soldiers in Anlai stupid? They don't even do basic fire prevention."

General Hongsha had not noticed anything unusual yet. He just angrily scolded the Tonggu defenders and ordered his men to put out the fire at the palace gate.

A Hongsha soldier standing on a high place observing the situation in the city said in a trembling voice:

"General, it's not the palace that's on fire."

"The entire Tonggu City is on fire."

General Hongsha was shocked when he heard this and quickly climbed onto the roof.

Seeing the situation in the ancient city, my mind went blank.

There is only one word left, fire, all fire.

There was still a streak of white in the sky, while the surrounding mountains and forests were plunged into darkness.

Only the entire ancient city of Tong was as bright as day.

Dozens of fires spread out, and in the blink of an eye, the flames spread rapidly and connected. In an instant, they engulfed houses one after another. Amidst the crackling sound of explosions, temples, pagodas, and royal palaces collapsed in the flames.

The blazing fire burned everything, like the evil spirits from hell, sweeping across the entire Tonggu city, which had been built for a hundred years, and wanted to burn everything to ashes.

Outside the city, the Hongsha camp stretched for several miles, with torches hanging on it.

At this moment, it looked like a ghost fire welcoming the dead souls on the Forgotten River.

It was not until sparks floated in front of General Hongsha's eyes that he came to his senses.

"Let's go, escape through the tunnel."

With the fire this intense, there's no need to even think about a surprise attack.

All human affairs, all conspiracies and schemes, kings, princes, generals and ministers are all false.

Under this divine power, people have only one thought: escape.

"General, the tunnel is also burning red, as hot as a furnace. The soldiers who just escaped have died of heat in the tunnel, and their bodies have blocked the tunnel."

The Hongsha soldiers who had just escaped from the tunnel cried out in grief, their faces covered in dust.

General Hongsha instantly collapsed all over and sat on the ground, unable to hear any sound.

Seeing the general in a state of dismay, the Hongsha soldiers fled in all directions. Some went back into the tunnels, while others rushed into the sea of ​​fire under the blazing flames.

[Your fate is to offend fire, and the city you are in is on fire. ]

[Your fate is to offend fire. A large-scale fire broke out in the city you are in.]

[Your fate is related to fire, and a large-scale fire broke out in the city where you are.]

【The fate is to offend fire...】

【The fate is to offend fire...】

After ordering the city to be burned, Zhu Cixuan deliberately stayed in Tonggu City for a while.

So as to trigger the destiny of Emperor Jiajing.

The Hongsha soldiers in the tunnel here were all ambushed and killed as soon as they entered the city.

Zhu Cixuan's eight hundred guards, dressed in Hongsha uniforms, had been waiting quietly in the tunnel outside the city.

[Burning the City: When you burn the city, the enemy will lose track of you.]

Zhu Cixuan entered the tunnel.

This tunnel is located in the Hongsha military camp under the city wall and is less than a kilometer long.

When Zhu Cixuan walked out of the tunnel, the Imperial Guards had already captured the surrounding Hongsha soldiers.

"Set fire! Keep setting fire!"

"Our Great Ming is the Virtue of Fire. This time, we want to use this great fire to show our Great Ming."

[Your fate is to offend fire. A fire broke out in the camp where you are.]

Zhu Cixuan caught a glimpse of a war elephant and a carriage beside it.

The spiritual light flashed like the sea of ​​fire in the ancient city.

I was just worried that I couldn't bring out my chariot.

……

A quarter of an hour earlier, the fire had not yet spread.

Same as the west gate of the ancient city.

Deng Kai, accompanied by his translator Pan Huang, led his personal soldiers to kill more than a dozen Sanqing Army soldiers who wanted to storm the city gate because the whole city was on fire.

The Sanqing soldiers, who had undergone profound reform and education from Deng Kai, subconsciously stopped.

Deng Kai exhaled a puff of hot air and brandished his embroidered spring sword:

"I'm not going to leave you to die in the city. Even if you wanted to die, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and I wouldn't leave you to burn to death."

"Outside the city, the Hongsha army is attacking, and firearms and bows and arrows are fired continuously. Leaving the city like this is suicide."

"Wait until I blow up the city wall. The Fire Bull Formation will go first, and we will follow."

After Deng Kai finished speaking, he asked someone to light the fuse and ran a hundred feet away.

There was a loud bang.

The earth shook and rocks flew everywhere.

Cracks covered the city wall like a spider web, and the ancient city wall shook twice like a drunkard and collapsed.

The Hongsha army outside the city had suspended their offensive due to the explosion, and the collapse of the city wall forced them to retreat again and again.

Deng Kai just wants this gap.

They had people set fire to the tails of cows, horses, and elephants, and tie them tightly with hemp ropes soaked in tung oil.

The cattle, horses and elephants, which were already uneasy because of the fire and explosion, felt pain in their buttocks and neighed.

There were huge fires on both sides behind, and nearly a thousand fire beasts were rushing madly towards the only dark remnant of the city wall.

The Hongsha soldiers saw the city wall collapse, revealing a gap that could be attacked.

There are no Ming troops outside the city now.

Under the urging of the generals, they rushed to the ruins.

Amidst the shouts and cries of killing, the first Hongsha soldier who had just climbed onto the ruins had not yet gained his footing.

He was knocked away by a mad fire bull.

The sudden attack instantly scattered the Hongsha soldiers attacking the city, and people and horses were thrown to the ground.

The Hongsha soldiers screamed in pain as the fire beasts trampled and charged at them.

Some of them even knocked down the barricades and walls and rushed into the Hongsha army camp.

Deng Kai led all the Ming troops out of the city, shouting:

"The Ming Dynasty is mighty, kill!"

The explosion of flames burning the city, the roar of firearms being fired, and the roar of fire beasts shaking the earth.

In the chaos and noise of the evening.

The shouts of Pan Huang, Wang Qilong and the Han Ming army reached the sky and shook the earth.

"The Ming Dynasty is mighty! Kill! Kill! Kill!"
