Chapter 795 Sudden Fire

As soon as Hou Zhi's words came out, the followers were instantly pleasantly surprised.

Use 7000 people to kill Guo Ning?
The thief who caused trouble for the Great Jin thought that the Song people bowed their heads and the Jin army had no more strength left, and was commanding and dispatching men in front. Even the famous iron bone was hanging on the side of the saddle, and he had already jumped off the horse , stepped on a ruin in two or three steps, and looked at the fire scene.

This person is really frivolous!At this time, there is no need for 7000 people, as long as seventy archers shoot a rain of arrows, they can be shot alive into a steaming flax cake, and each flax represents a hole made by an arrow!
Once Guo Ning dies, the situation in the world will be reset at this moment!
In addition to being pleasantly surprised, everyone was inevitably terrified.

After all, Guo Ning is the most terrifying traitor since the founding of the Dajin Kingdom.No matter how scattered his soldiers and horses are, there will always be capable retinues around him. It seems that a fierce battle is about to break out soon!

These few followers are still following Hou Zhi up to this time, which can be called loyal, but even they, after witnessing the rampage of Dinghai's iron cavalry, dare not stay here at all.

Immediately several people said: "Master, let's go!"

Perhaps because they felt that everything was about to come to an end, they shouted a little louder, and just overwhelmed the whining of the flames, and reached the ears of Guo Ning and others.

"Duke, there are a few noisy people over there, surrounded by a man in an official robe. This man is probably a figure in the Kaifeng court, so I'll go and catch him!" Ni Yi eagerly said.

Guo Ning glanced at him, ignored him, and only focused on the scene of the fire, listening attentively.

Dong Jin knew that after controlling the situation in Nanxunmen, Guo Ning's mind was no longer on military affairs.

Even if the Kaifeng imperial court is close at hand, it only needs to go around the fire to go straight to the inner city and grab the sweet fruits; even from the perspective of military affairs, the most urgent task is to rely on Nanxun gate to expand to the gates of the outer city.But Guo Ning was too lazy to pay attention to those, his thoughts were all on his comrades in the fire scene at the moment.

Guo Ning's location at the moment is a hillock north of Kanjie Pavilion. Because of the wind direction, he is disturbed by the smoke and dust from the fire from time to time, as well as off-white or black debris, and red sparks are carried into the air by the fire, and then drift away. Down, so that the surrounding environment is somewhat unclear.

Under such smoke and dust, people will cough constantly, and horses will easily panic.He stared for a while, his eyes were swollen and red from the smoke, so he listened intently, trying to get some information about the fire scene.

The fire in the depths of Nanxunmen Street seemed to be getting more intense, and it was still spreading outward.This street is also known as the prosperous Royal Street in the former Song Dynasty. Behind the building materials piled up on both sides of the road, there are still a few architectural remains of Guozijian, Taixue and Wuxue in the Song Dynasty.

Now these buildings are burning one after another. Some wooden boards or bamboo materials burst under the flames, making a soft crackling sound, and some beams and columns that were in disrepair tilted and collapsed after violent burning, driving the floor slabs supported by beams and columns. Or bricks and tiles crashing to the ground.

These sounds mixed together to form a strange roar, which was mixed with the wind from the fire to form a dull hum.

Standing on a high place right now, Guo Ning can hear and see, that's all.Someone previously reported that they saw figures in the depths of the fire scene, but Guo Ning tried his best to look and listen, but found no signs.

Could it be that the fire was so intense that everyone died?
This is impossible!

Li Ting himself is a soldier, and all of his subordinates are experienced.The scale of the fire scene is so huge, it is not necessarily that there is no gap to escape from, and it is even more impossible that there is no room to avoid the fire.Besides, with thousands of people and so many war horses, how could they all be trapped inside?
This guy Li Ting is really... really worrying!
The more Guo Ning thought about it, the more anxious he became.

At this moment, Dong Jin was leading people to threaten the generals of the Song army, and ordered the Song people to speed up the delivery of water bags.

In such hot weather, people stand still under the sun, sweating all over their bodies, and have to drink water to replenish. As a result, so many water bags carried by the soldiers were snatched by Ding Navy knights viciously, and many people Full of resentment, complaining one after another.

Dong Jin wanted to threaten with a knife, but was persuaded by his companions, and instead took the money he had with him to distribute, which immediately showed a miraculous effect.Many Song soldiers got money, and their complexions immediately became better.

The strange thing is that Song Jun has always been very cooperative.

Perhaps these people lack the will to make the navy an enemy, and they have some good feelings for the Han Erwu people who are rising in the north.Or maybe the people of Song Dynasty had a unique way of judging the situation. Soon after they got angry, many people found that the navy was not to blame. It was because their boss had too many new ideas.

On the contrary, at this moment, after Ding Haijun entered the city, he did not continue to fight. Instead, he tried his best to fight the fire and save people, which made these soldiers of the Song Army who were also from the bottom class feel a little cordial.

Of course, on the bright side, everyone is under the banner of obeying Grandpa Zhao's orders.These people mobilized carts for transporting grain and fodder from their own army, loaded wooden boxes and barrels, and found a road leading to Xuantai Bridge in the city, speeding up the speed of water delivery.

A group of Song troops pushing water-filled vehicles creaked past Guo Ning.Suddenly the wooden wheels got embedded in the staggered ruts, and the whole car came to a sudden stop.The young officer immediately bent down and tried to lift the shaft of the car, but the car was full of buckets and tanks, how heavy was it?The faces of four or five soldiers of the Song Army were flushed. Only the water surface shook slightly, but the car body remained motionless.

Guo Ning quickly stepped down from the top of Qiuxu, and walked to the side of the soldiers of the Song Army to help move them.His strength was much greater than that of ordinary people. Under the shouting and exerting strength, he swung the whole cart, and then shook it again, but it was still a bit weak to get out of the rut.

Guo Ning cursed, took off his helmet and threw it on the car board, steaming from the top of his head.

How could the attendants dare to let Duke Zhou be surrounded by Song people whose enemies and friends are unknown, and still do these rough jobs?More than a dozen people rushed up together, and Guo Ning shouted: "Don't worry, everyone put their hands on the car board! Listen to my orders, let's work together! One, two, three!"

Including the attendants, more than 20 strong and strong men shouted together, and suddenly lifted the entire cart. The officer of the Song Dynasty leaned down, turned the wheels vigorously, and shouted: "It's done!"

The car dropped a few inches, and now the hub landed in the correct rut.The attendants said: "Everyone, I have to work, go ahead!"

They walked a few steps, and Guo Ning chased after them: "Wait a minute, I'll go with you."

The attendants hurried up to stop him, but Guo Ning had scooped up water with his helmet and poured it on himself.

"Come on, don't delay."

The young Song Army officer wiped the soot from his face, and smiled apologetically, "Hey, cough, this general, we are only responsible for sending the water to the first hundred steps, and then we have to turn back to the Huimin River. Then go to the fire site In the depths, we will not go."

"It doesn't matter." Guo Ning began to push the cart: "You are busy with your work! After a hundred steps, I will go on my own."

A group of people were about to set foot, Dong Jin urged the horse from the outside and charged straight to the front.

"Duke! On the other side of the Guanqiao, Li Ting's subordinates went down the water, highlighting the scene of fire!"

Guo Ning was overjoyed: "How many people are there?"

"Three and forty people! Li Ting's personal army commander Hu Zhonggui is included. But..."

"But what?"

Dong Jin leaned closer to Guo Ning's ear: "Hu Zhonggui, the burns of the others are very serious, and they are no longer human. I'm afraid they won't live long."

The personal commander is like this, what about Li Ting himself?

Guo Ning's hand holding the car board had blue veins.

"Leave Zhao Fang, Xuan Zang and others to Ni Yiyi's care. You pick a group of brave people, start from Guanqiao, and go up the Huimin River to explore! You tell the soldiers that this is to save our own family. Brother, act quickly, I am very grateful!"

"Obey!" Dong Jin got back on his horse and leaned down again: "Mr. Guo, what about you?"

"I'll go deeper from here and search along the route of Li Ting's troops."

Dong Jin wanted to persuade him, but Guo Ning patted his horse hard: "Go!"

The horse was on the edge of the fire, and if it hadn't been well-trained, it would have already run wild in panic. At this moment, the horse's butt was hit by Guo Ning, and it screamed and ran away.

Guo Ning and his party, as well as the cart filled with water, continued to move forward.

Seeing their backs blocked by the smoke and staying on the edge of the road, Hou Zhi, who dared not vent his anger, couldn't help laughing.Smiling, he covered his face with tears streaming down his face: "This man is Zhou Guogong Guo Ning! Look, this man is so frivolous!"
