What group are you guys?

Chapter 506: Military morale is weakened
"Damn it! Come out and fight openly! What kind of hero are you if you hide your head and show your tail!"

Zhaotong stood on the hill holding a knife and screaming loudly, looking like a madman.

There was no way out. The Chu general's mentality had collapsed.

Since the day before yesterday, whenever the army was about to send out fire snakes, they would rush out to cause destruction. Although the soldiers were fully prepared due to the experience of the first time, hundreds of soldiers would still be devoured every time.

In just two days, thousands of people had been burned to death by the fire snakes, almost reaching a 10% loss!
If this amount of casualties was not enough to make him jump up and down, then the fact that the other party would always come and set fire and run away regardless of day or night would really make people feel disgusted!
There is no other way. As the saying goes, the greatest merit is to save the emperor, and the worst scheme is to cut off the food supply. Every time Yan Lingji ran out to set fire, not only would she burn some soldiers to death, but the fire snake would always stare at the baggage and explode.

Fire attack has been the most commonly used tactic since ancient times. Zhao Tong, as an outstanding general of the Chu State of that generation, made certain fire prevention preparations for the baggage even when attacking the Tang State.

After all, it’s never wrong to be careful these days!
But he never expected that the fire prevention measures he had taken would have no effect at all on this damn fire.

So far, the Chu army’s weapons and food supplies have almost been burned. It can be said that if they do not find a way to replenish the food supplies quickly, this army will not be able to attack Xinzheng, and it is even questionable whether it can withdraw to Chu.

Modern people have basically never experienced hunger so they don’t know what it feels like, but in the era of cold weapons, food and fodder were definitely the most important factors.

Although Zhaotong had encountered so-called masters before, those masters were generally unable to resist the attack of rain of arrows. In addition, with light cavalry outflanking the rear, it can be said that in front of the army, those masters were not worth mentioning at all.

But now!
Zhaotong discovered that those he had met before could not be considered masters?

Or is it that the master this time is just too shameless?

You have to know that provoking the army is not something that ordinary people can do. Even with Jingwei's skills, he can only lurk quietly once at night. He will probably fail the second time.

But the opponent's ambush was almost open. Everyone knew where the opponent was, but no one could do anything about it.

The rain of arrows can't cause any effective damage to the enemy, and the enemy can even withstand the rain of arrows and fight against the army!
In other words, the other party will withdraw within a few minutes, otherwise Zhaotong will have to doubt whether the other party is human or not.

And the cavalry sent out to encircle and suppress the enemy never came back alive. It was obvious that for such a peerless master, a few hundred people were just enough to fill the gaps in his teeth.

After all, as soon as Gai Nie appeared on the scene, he killed three hundred Qin warriors in seconds even with a burden. Li Qingyuan, who was a level higher than him, killed some Chu cavalry like a piece of cake!
What's more, Gai Nie is an assassin and can only attack point by point, while Yan Lingji is a mage who is best at area attack. Plus, fire mages are known for their destructive power, so in just two days, the 70,000-strong army was defeated and suffered widespread misery.

"Master, he is scolding you!"

Yan Lingji lay on the ground and challenged someone behind her.

"He was scolding you, and you're not a hero anyway, you're just a little wooden dog!"

Li Qingyuan responded with disdain.

"I'm a heroine now!"

Yan Lingji was a little unhappy. Although what someone said was true, she also felt that she was qualified to be called a heroine!
He was able to stop the 70,000-strong Chu army by himself, and there were even signs that he had destroyed the army. If this record were to be made public, it would be even more shocking than Li Qingyuan's destruction of Korea alone.

After all, the army of Chu and the army of Han are not at the same level at all. Yan Lingji has already started to think of a cool nickname for herself.

Should I call myself the Goddess of Fire? Or the Queen of Flame? "Stop talking nonsense. Can you still hold on with your current mental strength?"

Holding the reins tightly in his hands, Li Qingyuan asked Yan Lingji.

I have to say that lighters are really easy to use. They can be used for fighting, playing and using. No wonder lighters are the most cost-effective thing even for survival in the wilderness!

"It should be okay! But if you keep playing like this, Master, I feel like I can't hold on any longer!"

Yan Lingji was speechless. Every time they insisted on dragging her to play games in places like this, she couldn't even make a grand appearance.

"If I hadn't been training your mental strength these past few days, do you think you could have held on until now?"

Li Qingyuan scolded with disdain.

It is true that he seems to be very licentious and immoral, but in fact, this is entirely for the purpose of training Yan Lingji's reaction ability and mental strength, it is purely for her good!
All I can say is that this training method seems a bit absurd and is therefore misunderstood, but it doesn’t matter.

Li Qingyuan said that he was not a superficial person and just having sex would be enough!

'boom--'

The fire snake exploded once again inside the Chu army, and the flames waving in the sky were as enchanting as the red spider lilies in the underworld, making all the Chu soldiers tremble with fear!
There is no way. If it is an ordinary flame, no one will be afraid. After all, it will only burn you at most.

But this kind of flame is very strange. As long as you get a little bit of it, your whole body will be ignited immediately. Even if it falls on the ground, it will continue to burn for a long time. It is so weird that it is incomprehensible.

"asshole!"

Although Zhaotong was so angry that he stamped his feet, but when he saw a figure stepping out from the bushes in front of him and slowly leaving, he did not rush up to seek death, but shouted and cursed at the top of his voice!

Cleaning up the battlefield, clearing away all traces, and isolating the baggage damaged by the fire. By the time all this was done, it was almost noon.

"Ahhhh-"

When Zhaotong thought that the other party would come back in an hour or so, he felt his head start to hurt.

He originally thought that this attack on the Tang Dynasty was just a formality, but who would have thought that his army would collapse before he even saw the capital of the Tang Dynasty.

It's impossible to defeat or stop the opponent. The opponent is obviously a peerless master but he has no martial ethics at all. How can you fight like this in the world?

But it was obvious that the enemy would not move according to Zhaotong's idea. Just when he was angry and depressed, the huge fire snake appeared again!

After experiencing two days and two nights of non-stop attacks and the tragic plight of their comrades around them, the Chu army could no longer hold on. The soldiers who were supposed to be guarding the periphery simply dropped their weapons and ran away.

Damn, that thing is impossible to attack or defend against. Anyone who touches it will be turned into charcoal. He is just a soldier, he won't seek death!
