The Huns were numerous in Yanmen Pass, and the team of firefighting was quickly summoned and put out the fire everywhere.
When Huchuquan looked back at the outside of the city again, he found that the burning circles of fire had gradually extinguished.
A ten thousand men pointed to the city and laughed, "Look, the fire is out, haha."
"Yeah." Hu Chuquan nodded with a smile, then his eyes froze, and said solemnly: "No, the fire is not extinguished, it is still burning."
"Ah?" The ten thousand men was stunned when he heard this. After a closer look, he found that there was indeed a faint firelight shining.
In less than a moment, the fire light became redder and clearer at the already extinguished fire source.
The captain of ten thousand men scratched his head and said, "It''s really evil, why is this fire burning again?"
"Although I don''t know why, it seems that Qin Hao has put in some effort to burn this fire!" Hu Chuquan frowned and said in a cold voice: "But I want to see what tricks do you want to play!"
"Not good, the granary caught fire."
"What?"
Hu Chuquan widened his eyes, and the thing he was most worried about was still happening.
The granary was inspected by Hu Chuquan himself. It is logical that it would not have caught fire, but it just caught fire, which made Hu Chuquan feel a bad feeling.
"Not good, the arsenal has also caught fire!"
“Not good, all warehouses are on fire”
"Damn it, why don''t you all go to put out the fire for me!" Hu Chuquan roared.
Outside Yanmen Pass.
Looking at Yanmen Pass, which had already illuminated the entire sky, the generals were filled with doubts. Yanmen Pass was obviously a stone city, and how did this fire burn?
"Young master, what exactly..." Gao Shun was the first to stand out and asked.
Qin Hao smiled slightly when he saw this, and then gave Wang Meng a wink. Wang Meng took out a black stone from his arms and handed it to the generals, smiling and said, "Can you know what this is?"
Although some generals think they look familiar, they just can''t name them, and most of them shake their heads directly, indicating that they don''t know each other at all.
Zhang Liao thought hard for a long time before finally remembering it, and couldn''t help but say wondering: "Isn''t this the stone used to lay the foundation when I was practicing the level? What''s the use of this stone?"
"Haha, this thing is of great use." Wang Meng smiled lightly, "My lord named this thing coal stone. Coal stone is not easy to burn, but once it is ignited, it is difficult to extinguish the fire until it completely turns into ashes before it stops."
Wang Meng''s words made everyone except Qin Hao look disgusted, and almost everyone took a breath at the same time.
This coal stone is everywhere in Yanmen Pass. If a fire is lit, the 90,000 Huns army in Yanmen Pass will really be buried with Yanmen Pass!
At this time, the generals finally understood what Qin Hao said to be the strategy to defeat the enemy. What a cruel and vicious plan!
"Young Master, was it because of the purpose of building a city with coal stones today?" Gao Shun asked all the questions in the hearts of the Yanmen Army generals. When he thought that he and others had fought on such dangerous stones for four years, everyone couldn''t help but be afraid.
"No, I did this just to prevent it. If one day Yanmen Pass really couldn''t keep it, I would set fire to delay the time for the Huns to move south, so that Guangwu had time to prepare." Qin Hao explained patiently.
"As for how many Xiongnu can be burned to death, there is too much variable. After all, no one knows how many people of the Xiongnu will enter the pass, and whether they will break through once the fire breaks out, so setting fire to the pass is the last dying needle."
Thinking of Qin Hao’s words, the generals felt that it was indeed very reasonable. If the Huns did not all enter the pass, it would be meaningless to set fire to the pass. If the Huns directly abandon the pass, the Huns would also be meaningless to burn the pass.
"How did the young master make sure that the Huns would definitely all enter the pass?" Xu Huang asked in confusion. If such a thing is gambled, then the luck would be too good.
"I was not sure at first, but after Mr. Wang Meng made a little trick, I was fully sure about it!"
"Oh? What''s the plan?" Xu Huang continued to ask.
Wang shook the feather fan lightly and explained with a faint smile: "Human hearts are a complex thing, and Yanmen Pass also has special significance to the Huns. Therefore, after the Pass is broken, the Huns will definitely be excited. Our army has left so much supplies and wine and meat in the Pass, so I expect that the Huns will definitely enter the Pass and celebrate it."
"It''s that simple?" Xu Huang said differently.
“It’s that simple.”
"Xu Huang accepts!"
As soon as Xu Huang retreated, Qin Hu stood up and asked coldly: "What if the defenders break through the siege regardless of everything?"
Qin Hu has a deep relationship with Yanmen Pass. This pass was rebuilt by his father and uncle for a long time, but Wang Meng burned it with one trick. Although it was for victory, Qin Hu still had some resentment towards Wang Meng.
Of course, Qin Hu must be more than the only one with resentment.
Wang smiled indifferently: "If the defenders break through regardless of their fate, they may still be able to highlight some of their troops, but after deciding that the defenders will never break through!"
“Why?”
"If you are a person, you will be lucky. As long as a small number of people try to break through and die, the rest will not continue to try. They would rather stay on the city tower and lose their last chance to escape while watching and hesitating. Besides, I will not let them escape so easily."
Wang Meng''s explanation made everyone silent. People''s hearts are sometimes complicated, but sometimes they are very simple!
As for the result, Wang Meng didn''t say it clearly, but everyone knew that when the carbonite was fully burning and the fire spread completely, even the iron man would be afraid of turning into gold juice, let alone people!
"What a vicious plan!"
Some generals looked at Wang Meng with a little fear.
This person is ten times more cruel than the military advisor Xi Zhicai!
Qin Hu had no words and had to retreat, but Zhang Liao stood up and continued to ask, "Sir, have you forgotten the Xianbei?"
Interestingly, Qin Hao looked at the scene in front of him with interest and said in his heart: Is Wang Meng going to stage a good show of slandering the generals?
"If we lose Yanmen Pass, even if our army can win this battle, if the Xianbei and the company send troops to invade, what can we do to resist?" Zhang Liao said lightly.
When the generals heard this, they immediately showed a solemn look. Yes, Yanmen Pass is not only defending the Xiongnu. Even if they use fire attack strategies to severely damage the Xiongnu, they still cannot resist the Xianbei without Yanmen Pass!
"Haha!" Faced with Zhang Liao''s aggressiveness, Wang Meng was not panicked at all, but instead said calmly: "It is because he predicted that the Xianbei would never attack, so he dared to persuade his lord to adopt this plan."
