Chapter 98 Fire

"If you want to rescue them, then go there by yourself, don't drag everyone down." Chen Yongkun stared at that person with an unkind expression, frightening that person to retreat again and again, not daring to say anything anymore.

Chen Yongkun's servants didn't care about this. Seeing that Chen Yongkun had given the order, they immediately started to smash open the houses on the street. Under the horrified eyes of the residents, they took away all the clothes, beddings, dry firewood and other items in the houses. See

If someone takes action, others will naturally follow. Those who were hesitant at first joined the crowd collecting firewood for their own safety.

Everyone gathered firewood and the flames were high. So many people started working together, and in a short time, a wooden wall half as high as a person was built.

"The room next to it hasn't been blocked yet." As soon as the blockade was completed on this side of the street, someone immediately suggested that the blocked wooden wall could be bypassed in the private house next to it.

"Quickly go and block the inside of the private house and block all the passages through which everything can come." Chen Yongkun quickly ordered.

Following Chen Yongkun's order, no one raised any questions this time. Everyone went over to block all the passages leading to the city gate and sent people to guard them.

After just blocking the street, Hua Yuncheng and others in front could no longer withstand the attack from two sides, and the Jia Ding coalition army was defeated. The scattered defeated army walked along the street and ran to the wooden wall. They saw a line of dead wood and others appearing out of thin air in front of them.

The piled wooden wall suddenly made them feel despair, but their survival instinct drove them to try hard to get over the wooden wall.

However, the servants on the wooden wall will definitely not be helpless. After all, they are all grasshoppers on a rope. Of course, if they can’t be cured, they can’t be cured either. As early as when they were on the wooden wall together, they had set aside

A passage is used for the retreat of the defeated troops in the future, and it happens to be used at this moment.

"This way, come here quickly." Someone called to the defeated soldiers and retreated along the passage.

The defeated soldiers retreated quickly along the narrow passage as if they had received an amnesty. However, the reserved passage was still too narrow. Less than half of the defeated soldiers came through, and Zhang Xianzhong's soldiers had already arrived behind them.

Chen Yongkun felt furious and ordered: "Close the passage."

After receiving the order, two strong men standing on the wooden wall, one on the left and one on the right, holding giant axes, fiercely hit a wooden stick that supported a large amount of bricks, stones and tiles. The wooden stick broke instantly, and a large number of

Supports, bricks, tiles, etc. were smashed down, and together with several servants who had not yet walked out of the passage, the originally narrow passage was tightly blocked.

A large number of servants who had not yet escaped to heaven saw that their escape route had been blocked and screamed in despair, but relied on their instinct to survive and climbed up the wooden wall.

When Zhang Xianzhong saw the chaos ahead, he grinned widely, "Brothers, follow them and fight them back."

"kill."

Suddenly remembering the loud killing sound, the already helpless servants became even more frightened and tried desperately to climb up the wooden wall.

Chen Yongkun looked at the scene in front of him, knowing that if he didn't do anything, people like him would die without a burial place. His heart was filled with anger and he shouted: "Come here, light a fire for me. Set the wooden wall on fire for me."

Huh? The heads of the families surrounding Chen Yongkun stared at Chen Yongkun in shock. There were a large number of servants climbing over the wooden wall. How could they just burn it? What's more, most of the houses on both sides of the street were burned.

It is a wooden house, but there are still people living in it. If the surrounding houses are set on fire, the entire Anyi city will be buried with him. I didn't expect this person to be so ruthless.

"Burn" Chen Yongkun roared at his servants when he saw that no one was following his orders.

"You can't burn it, Chen Yongkun. There are a lot of my servants on the wooden wall. Do you want to burn my people to death?" But it was Hua Yuncheng who escaped from death. Seeing that he was covered in blood, he stepped forward to stop Chen Yongkun. Hua Yuncheng

Staring at this friend, it was like meeting him for the first time.

"Burn or burn, everyone will die." Chen Yongkun pushed Hua Yuncheng aside and ordered frantically to his servants.

The servants woke up from a dream and took out the fire sticks from their arms to light the fire. They didn't care how many people died in the flames. Anyway, they already had a lot of life debt. One more person would not be too much, and one less person would not be a lot.

When he first built the wooden wall, Chen Yongkun had already thought that if he was pushed into a hurry, he would burn the wooden wall directly to delay time. So he laid a large number of clothes, bedding and other flammable objects under the wooden wall. Now four or five

A servant took a fire stick and ignited these flammable items. After a while, the small flames expanded rapidly, and the greedy tongue of flames devoured everything. First, the flammable clothes, bedding, etc., and later the dyed and ignited rotten wood, wood, etc.

When the servants on the wooden wall saw someone setting fire to the wooden wall, they were so frightened that they lost all their energy. Without caring about the direction, they hurriedly tried to jump off the wooden wall. Unfortunately, in their panic, many people missed the mark.

, his thigh was stuck in the gap between the wooden walls, unable to move forward or retreat, he could only watch as the man-eating tongues of fire engulfed him.

"It's too slow, no, it's too slow." The fire grew rapidly, but Chen Yongkun still thought it was too slow to spread. "Go find some fire oil and pour it on it. Make sure the fire is strong enough. Only in this way can you stop the bandits."

But now there is no kerosene, but the oil-pressing factory in Luojiafang in the county town is not far from here, and there is a lot of cooking oil in it. The servants don't care whether it is kerosene or cooking oil at the moment, as long as it is oil, they take it and pour it in

On the wooden wall ahead.

With the blessing of a large amount of oil, the fire spread faster. The raging flames immediately rose up, blocking the attack of Zhang Xianzhong's troops. Of course, it also set fire to nearby houses. A large number of Baixin fled crying and shouting.

He bought his own home, but this was not within the scope of Chen Yongkun's consideration.

Looking at the raging flames, Chen Yongkun calmed down. Although this wall of fire could block it for a while, it certainly wouldn't be able to block it for long.

Chen Yongkun whispered to the servants beside him: "Go back and ask your wife to quickly collect the gold and silver, take your son, and escape from the east gate. I don't think we can hold on here for long."

Obviously Chen Yongkun also felt that such crude defensive measures, which cost the lives of so many servants and civilians, could not withstand Zhang Xianzhong's army for long. He could only hold back for a while to buy time for the family members behind him to escape.

The servant next to him took the order and left.

Zhang Xianzhong's troops were blocked by the wall of fire, but he did not panic and stood in the distance waiting. "People inside, listen, I, Zhang Xianzhong, want money rather than life. As long as you are willing to surrender, I will protect the lives of your whole family. If you continue to resist, this
Chapter completed!
