Ma Yuan did not chase into the forest. He was also a fierce general who had fought all kinds of battles. He knew the truth that he would not enter the forest. The Xixia man obviously entered the forest with a purpose.

..

If the hundreds of personal soldiers he brought him were blindly penetrated into the woods, God knew how many people would die to catch that guy.

Therefore, he chose the roughest way, which was to set fire. After the hundred and ten personal soldiers dispersed, they stood in the upper position and threw the turbulent bomb into the woods without hesitation.

Nowadays, setting fire is the best skill of the Song army. Since the emergence of gunpowder bullets, Yun Zheng is very dissatisfied with its lethality. In order to find a weapon with greater lethality, Yun Zheng's younger brother Yun Yue purified the turbulent oil in the prison.

It is so simple to set fire, not to mention that on the grassland, most of the pine trees here contain oil, and the fire quickly formed a prairie fire under the scorching sun.

If they were herdsmen in Liao Kingdom, even if their father-killing enemies fled into the woods, they would not choose to set fires. If they were from Xixia, they would not do such things that would harm nature. They did not care about human lives, but they had a way to worship the mountains and forests.

Ma Yuan waited for the fire to burn completely and said to the more and more Song Jun around him: "Around the forest, I will wait for him on the other side of the forest."

The Song army immediately began to be on guard along the edge of the woods. Some Song army holding the arrows immediately rose up and looked at the woods with vigilance. Everyone knew how angry the commander was today.

Li Qing heard the sound of the fire burning. With the help of the grassland wind, the fire was on the fire very quickly. In a short while, he felt a burning heat on his spine.

There is no possibility of defeating the wildfire by following the wind. There is a shallow mud pool in front of him. Li Qing crawled into the pool. When he came out of the other side of the pool, his whole body was covered with mud.

After a little discerning the direction, Li Qing decided to break through in the direction where the Lightning River was. Things changed. If they stayed in the woods, they would definitely turn into a roasted pig.

Through the dense branches, the sky is still very bright. If the sun sets, you need to wait for at least another hour. Now is the longest time of day in the year. This forest is not big and will definitely not support the sunset time.

The crackling sound of trees burning was like a life-seeking impermanence, forcing Li Qing to run wildly in the woods like a rabbit.

As he ran along, countless jungle creatures were also running wildly. A huge wild boar arched over a calamity sheep with one mouth, and then his huge hooves ruthlessly stepped on the calamity sheep and advanced forward. Behind the road it had opened, whether it was a wild boar, a leopard, a wild wolf, or a few wild deer eating grass, they followed closely behind the boar. As for the calamity sheep that was arched over by a wild boar, it had long been stepped into meat paste.

Li Qing naturally also ran away with the wild boar. In the place within his reach, there was a female leopard with colorful fur. The female leopard was also holding a small leopard in her mouth.

At this time, people and wild beasts get along very well, and no one cares about any hostility towards anyone when they are escaping.

In order to speed up the burning of the woods, the Song people began to throw oil bombs with crossbows to places that were not on fire, which aggravated the progress of the burning, and the beasts in the woods became even more frightened.

Li Qing could not let the stupid wild boar take the escape army to the center of the woods. Although there is no fire there, the fire will soon spread there.

Without these wild beasts, I would have no way to escape the pursuit of the Song cavalry, so this escape team needed a new leader.

Li Qing crossed the howling wild boar and became the animal in front of the fleeing army. The wild beasts frightened by the wild fire followed Li Chang towards the Lightning River without thinking.

In the woods, Li Qing's many years of hunting skills finally came in handy. He was walking in the woods with extremely fast speed. But this time it was not for hunting, but for escaping.

The sound of horses fighting outside the woods was thundering. The Lightning River was not far from the woods. As long as you could run fifty feet apart, you could quietly drill into the Lightning River. This was your only chance to escape.

He wanted to delay the time a little longer. Unfortunately, his group of wild beasts found that he had escaped from the sea of ​​fire and was unwilling to stay in the woods for a moment. He screamed and crossed Li Qing, who had just thought he was the leader, and howled and ran towards the grassland. If Li Qing had not dodged quickly, the yellow sheep that had been stepped into meat paste would have ended up with him.

The fierce wild boar was the one who led the way...

As soon as the wild boar escaped from the woods, it turned into a porcupine. Its body was filled with crossbow arrows. A group of Song cavalry in iron armor stood coldly on the edge of the woods and shot the escaped beasts one by one on the edge of the woods.

The female leopard was also dead, and there was no trace of the little leopard in her mouth. In order to speed up the speed of escaping, the instinct of survival defeated her duties as a mother, and it abandoned the little leopard.

Now the little leopard is curled up next to Li Qing, opening his mouth to call his mother.

Maybe he felt that his mother had little hope of coming back, so the little leopard decisively lay his body beside Li Qing and even stuck out his tongue to lick Li Qing's face.

The flames behind him burned not far away. After the fire burned, it evacuated the air in the center of the woods, causing negative pressure. So an inexplicable wind broke out in the woods, and the air charged in all directions to replenish the burned air.

The wind assists the fire, and the fire is even higher. The flames almost form a fire tornado, and then spread out in the sky, sprinkling the flames in all directions.

Black dust kept falling on Li Qing's body, and the little leopard had already penetrated under his body, screaming in despair. If its own power could leave here, it would never be burned by Li Qing here.

Li Qing's ears kept shaking, and the sound of horse hooves gradually disappeared. War horses were also animals, and they also had heartfelt fear of the sky-sky fire in front of them. They kept taking the horse's knights back, and no matter how the cavalry controlled the war horses, it would be useless.

Li Qing slowly crawled out, the mud on his body had been dried up by the fire, and his body was almost dried up.

He grabbed the little leopard's melon skin with one hand, and wanted to break the leopard's head. At least the blood of the little leopard could relieve his thirst a little.

The little leopard screamed "whimper" and seemed very happy. Its mother brought it from the depths of the woods with its melon peel in her mouth.

A big tree fell down, and sparks splashed all over the sky beside Li Qing. The burning trunks instantly ignited the dead leaves on the ground.

Li Qing had no choice but to stop the hand that wanted to break the little leopard's neck and speed up the climbing outward.

A wild boar full of fire rushed out of the woods with a shrill howl, and ran far before falling on the beach of the Lightning River. This time it was not attacked by crossbow arrows.

Li Qing rushed up, shook his feet and ran towards the Lightning River. After running ten feet away, the crossbow arrow broke through the air from a distance, and his shoulders were numb. This was the feeling of being caught in an arrow. Song Jun actually used a triangular armor-breaking arrow on himself in a luxurious manner.

Li Qing didn't care about these things, and he couldn't pull out the three-edged armor-breaking arrows at all, so he could die quickly. So he almost exerted his physical strength to the extreme and faster than the galloping horse!

The crossbow arrows kept passing by him, and twice the crossbow arrows almost flew over his cheeks, and took away a piece of flesh from his cheeks.

Li Qing only wanted to run, and just wanted to plunge into the arms of the Lightning River. As long as he could swim across the Lightning River, his life would be saved.

The sun is about to set, the clouds in the sky are particularly beautiful, and the burning woods behind them are even more red. The first moment they step into the water, Li Qing suddenly rushed up and pounced on the large fog of water in front of him.

At this time, his body and mind were extremely happy, as if he was not celebrating his escape from death, but simply celebrating that he could pounce into the water in front of him.

The water covered his body, and he couldn't wait to drink the water in big gulp. When he was happily ready to dive into the water and dive through the most difficult distance, his whole heart sank down his head and drilled into the sand.

The river is too shallow...(To be continued.)
