Xiliang City, North Gate.

The cold wind howled, blowing the hearts of countless soldiers hovering on the city wall.

There were five thousand soldiers on the city wall, each carrying Bai Feng's improved crossbow.

All the crossbow carts in Xiliang, a total of fifteen, were also moved to the city wall.

Bai Feng held the hilt of the green sword at his waist, narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance.

It was almost dusk at this time, and the sunset on the horizon was really beautiful.

However, just under the sunset in the distance, there were many people crowded.

It seems the news is correct.

The Qiang people came to Xiliang City with all their soldiers!

"It seems that these Qiang people are cornered by us!"

"If we even kill their 200,000-strong army, I guess the leader of Xiliang won't be able to sit still."

Li Cunxiao shook his head slightly. Obviously, he did not expect that the Qiang leader would actually choose to abandon his territory, switch from offense to defense, and fight to the death.

Li Yuanba sneered, raised the sledgehammer in his hand and said:

"Just in time!"

"I'm still worried about how to attack them."

"These guys are so considerate, they came here to die themselves!"

"Just in time, catch them all now!"

Qin Liangyu couldn't help but smile bitterly:

"This is an army of two hundred thousand!"

"Brother, I still think we should ask General Meng Qi to dispatch all the soldiers."

Bai Feng shook his head and said:

"No need."

"Yuanba said it well. Just when we were worried about how to attack them, they actually took the initiative to come and die."

"Who said we must defend the city obediently?"

Hearing what Bai Feng said, the surrounding generals were suddenly stunned.

Ma Chao said with a shocked look:

"gentlemen……"

"You don't want to rush out from the city gate and fight to the death, right?"

Bai Feng said angrily:

"Of course not. Otherwise, I would not have sent five thousand soldiers to this city."

Ma Chao suddenly became even more puzzled.

Isn't this contradictory?

Bai Feng smiled lightly and said:

"Do you think today's style is extraordinarily great?"

Ma Chao smiled bitterly and said:

"Sir, what time has it been? Why do you still care about the wind?"

At this moment, Jiang Wei lowered his head and thought hard, then his eyes lit up and he said:

"I see!"

"I understand what sir means!"

"When the wind rises, the war rages!"

"Sir, what you mean is that you want to use the wind to attack with fire!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Pound led hundreds of soldiers on the stairs of the city wall, trying their best to carry heavy boxes:

"Sir, as per your instructions, everything is ready!"

All the generals immediately looked at the things Pang De had brought.

Sulfur, flames, saltpeter... and a wet cloth soaked in fire oil!

At this moment, everyone suddenly realized.

Exactly what Jiang Wei said!

"Don't be idle, distribute these things to the soldiers."

"The arrows of the ballista must also be covered with paint."

"Let's take advantage of this wind and give them a burning camp!"

Bai Feng smiled calmly.

"Here!"

The generals were immediately overjoyed and quickly distributed all the things Pound had brought to the soldiers.

Bai Feng continued to look at the Qiang army.

Although there are many cavalry in these Qiang troops, most of them are infantry.

The best way to deal with such a large infantry force is naturally to attack with fire.

In fact, from the beginning of the attack on the Yueji troops, Bai Feng had prepared a lot of materials for fire attacks.

This fire attack is the best tactic when few versus many.

Regardless of the three classic battles of the Three Kingdoms in history: the Battle of Guandu, the Battle of Chibi, and the Battle of Yiling, they were all fire attacks.

Or, in many dynastic wars in later generations, fire attacks were used to some extent.

Even in modern warfare, things like Molotov cocktails are used.

This is enough to show that once a fire becomes a disaster, it is difficult for people to control it.

Fire is ruthless, even if the Qiang people have 200,000 soldiers, they can still resist with fire attack.

If attacking, it is indeed difficult to attack with fire.

But now this Qiang leader actually dares to lead his army here!

Xiliang City has a geographical advantage.

Whether it is a catapult or a crossbow, it can hit the Qiang leader more accurately.

What's more, the wind direction today is from south to north, which can be said to be the right time.

Although Xiliang is cold, it is also extremely dry, with almost no rainfall, which is another major advantage.

However, it is indeed difficult to find such a large amount of fire oil in Xiliang City.

But it is naturally not difficult to find alternatives.

"Sir, although there is something to ignite the fire, just shooting them with rockets may not be able to deal with so many Qiang soldiers."

"After all, nothing can keep burning."

Jiang Wei thought for a long time and finally asked.

Bai Feng pursed his lips and motioned Jiang Wei to look:

"With this thing, there is no need to worry."

Jiang Wei couldn't help but follow Bai Feng's gaze.

Suddenly, Jiang Wei found soldiers bringing up a large number of jars at the back of the kerosene!

"What is this?"

Ma Chao immediately went over and sniffed curiously, and frowned:

"Why does it smell like alcohol?"

Bai Feng smiled lightly, walked to the jar and said:

"First shoot out the rockets. After you have the fire, tie a can to the crossbow and shoot out."

"This jar is full of strong liquor, and if you touch it, the fire will spread."

“As for the ones that burn sustainably, of course they are people.”

Hearing Bai Feng's words, Jiang Wei couldn't help but take a breath of air.

liquor?

Absolutely amazing!

Wine can cause fire!

Ordinary turbid liquor has a very low alcohol content, so it may not be possible.

But the wine made by Bai Feng is absolutely fine!

Everyone has personally experienced how strong this wine is!

Of course, Bai Feng did not put all his energy on the city wall.

Whether it is the ballista or the archers on the city wall, they are all used to start.

The real highlight should be done by the troops on the ground.

At this time, in the dense forest outside Xiliang North Gate City.

Five thousand Bingzhou wolf cavalry were divided into two groups on the left and right.

Behind each horse, there are four or five wine cans hanging.

The seal of the wine can was made of cloth filled with kerosene.

It was still dripping and leaking kerosene on the ground.

However, this dense forest is quite far from the gate of Xiliang City.

The purpose of these Bingzhou wolf cavalry is not to intercept Qiang soldiers when they come up.

What they had to do was to use fire to seal the retreat route of the Qiang soldiers.

After all, once the 200,000-strong army discovers that the fire cannot be extinguished, they will inevitably retreat continuously.

At that time, these Bingzhou Wolf Riders will play a vital role.

Now Bai Feng finally experienced the scene in history when Zhuge Liang sat on the other side of Red Cliff and watched Cao Cao's ships attack.

Everything is ready, the east wind has arrived, and the Qiang soldiers are waiting!

This time, Bai Feng decided to wipe out all these Qiang soldiers here!
