Chapter 270
Therefore, as soon as this decision was made, it was immediately approved by the majority!
It's just that in terms of specific implementation, there are some differences!
Under normal circumstances, things like this are usually left to the frontline soldiers to do, but as for what to do, how to expand the fire!
This is also a difficult thing to solve. Everyone knows that fire can gradually spread because of the increase in combustible materials.

The only things that can burn right now are saltpeter and strong oil.

Although these two types of items are relatively common in daily life, if you want it to work quickly and achieve results in a short period of time.

Then this is also a relatively difficult thing, after all, under normal circumstances, the combustion of any combustible material requires a period of time.

Moreover, the more things are burned, the longer the burning time will be.

So if you simply use combustibles, it may consume a lot of time, and various accidents will occur during the burning process.

Therefore, it was precisely because of this aspect that Du Huo finally made the decision to use the fire element strategy!
In fact, the strategies of the two elements of water and fire have reached the same level at this time!
It's just that at this stage, the two methods and ways of functioning are somewhat different!
Nowadays, water strategies obviously need to be carefully considered.

After all, if you want to use the water system strategy, you must first dismiss the soldiers in the city.

And in the process of dismissal, I am afraid that no one dares to guarantee what will happen.

If Sun Quan took the opportunity to escape during this process, no one would be responsible for it.

Therefore, in order to avoid such things from happening, Du Huo had no choice but to reluctantly give up the use of water system strategies.

The water-type strategy was abandoned, and the fire-type strategy became the only way Du Huo could choose to defeat the enemy!
Therefore, when the wall of fire made everyone feel embarrassed, Du Huo's fire element strategy directly added a huge helping hand to the fire.

As a result, the monstrous fire quickly spread in the city based on the fire wall.

Standing outside Jianye City and looking from a distance, the fiery red light directly illuminates the entire sky, and the thick black smoke can almost be said to block out the sky at this time.

Even on the brightest mornings, the fire is as bright as the rising sun.

I have to say that if we consider it purely from the aspect of aesthetics, the scene in Jianyecheng at this time can indeed be called a beautiful picture.

However, if you consider it from a practical point of view, what Sun Quan is facing now is a great tragedy.

The monstrous fire is not like a raging fire from the sky.

In just a few minutes, countless fireballs rolled down from the wall of fire.

At this time, it was unknown whether it was stones or solidified resin. In short, the burning fireball directly brought the fire to every corner.

As a result, it didn't take long before Jianye City was filled with cries and shouts.

Countless people were in the sea of ​​fire, and the whole city was like a sea of ​​fire.

Everyone was inside, being burned by the flames. Although there was sufficient water in the well, it could not stop the spread of the fire.

In the end, Sun Quan was also at a loss for the current fire!

Although Lu Xun was still there, he actively led the soldiers to fight the fire.

But helplessly, a drop in the bucket, some disasters can't be easily avoided without their hard work!

As a result, when the fire spread, almost half of the people in Jianye City died.

And the remaining half are also hovering on the edge of life and death.

However, it is worth mentioning that although the common people died in the disaster, the soldiers guarding the city were never injured.

It has to be said that although Lu Xun failed to stop the spread of the fire in time, he managed to save the lives of his subordinates by himself!

However, although what he did was a good thing for the soldiers under his command, he didn't get any words of thanks from this good thing.

On the contrary, the city is still talking about him, sacrificing the people, and saving the soldiers.

Although, their lives were all saved by Lu Xun, but when Lu Xun saved them, he also sacrificed their family members.

So even though Lu Xun saved their lives, he also became their enemy at the same time.

As a result, although Lu Xun has always been dedicated to his duties and served Sun Quan, it is still difficult to escape the fate of being dismissed after all.

It's just a pity that although Lu Xun was dismissed, Sun Quan has no more generals to use.

As a result, in desperation, Sun Quan could only go into battle in person, as the lord, ordering the three armies to resist Du Huo's offensive.

After a fire, the facilities in Jianye City were basically destroyed, and the money and food that could have been used for a year were all reduced to nothing at this time.

And those food and grass that were lucky enough to survive can only last for three or four days.

Facing the scene of mess and corpses strewn all over the ground, this man who had been the Lord of Jiangdong all his life finally felt hopeless in the midst of this misery!

The burning of the wall of fire is still going on, but since the fire has spread, the fire of the wall of fire has indeed weakened a lot.

Moreover, in addition to the fact that Soochow no longer has any other fuel to add, the wall of fire will soon be extinguished!
And after the firewall was extinguished, not long after, it was directly pushed down by Du Huo!
Although the wall of fire was built very solidly, but after the fire burned, no matter how strong the city wall was, it was broken.

Therefore, overthrowing the firewall has become a piece of cake!

And with the collapse of the firewall, the obstacles that Lu Xun had set before disappeared without a trace at this moment.

In the following time, the people in Jianye City also fled frantically.

Moreover, among the fleeing common people, there were also a large part of soldiers mixed in.

It's just that they have taken off their armor at this time and transformed into ordinary people again.

Although they still maintain the state of soldiers, in their hearts, they really don't have the emotions they had when they were soldiers!
The fleeing of the people, no matter from which aspect it is considered a good thing.

Although Lu Xun built the wall of fire, it was Du Huo who set the fire after all!Therefore, to take a step back, the main responsibility for this matter still has to be placed on Duhuo.

It's just that Lu Xun's actions were too dazzling, so everyone released their grievances on Lu Xun.

But after this incident, when everyone no longer remembers Lu Xun, then the blame will fall back on Du Huo again.

So right now, what Du Huo has to do is to spread grace widely.

Therefore, since the common people wanted to escape from the battlefield, Du Huo would naturally not stop them, and not only that, Du Huo also had to assist the common people in the city to survive in other cities again.

As a result, Du Huo's approach directly left an extremely deep impression on the hearts of the refugees.

And when this phenomenon happened, the defenders who were trapped in Jianye City were also greatly affected.

It's just that they are all under the pressure of Sun Quan, even if they want to leave the city and surrender, they just have no guts!

Leaving aside this aspect, after the firewall was pulled down, the second inner city was directly exposed to Du Huo's army.

According to the previous plan, Zhang Bao would naturally attack the second inner city.

So, on the second day after the wall of fire was pulled down, Zhang Bao led tens of thousands of soldiers and launched a mighty siege battle.

But in the process of siege at this time, the just wrapping is very clear, and you can feel the powerlessness of the guards.

I don't know if they did it on purpose, or if they really didn't have the ability to resist.

As a result, Zhang Bao just launched an attack, which was a direct attack, and the guards on the city were defeated.

Zhang Bao didn't even have time to organize the next batch of siege teams, and the war ended hastily.

And in this second inner city, apart from those soldiers who fled, there was no other general.

And if judged from this angle, then the difficulty of attacking the city can indeed be explained.

Since there is no commander-in-chief of generals, the defenders of the city have become a mess.

Therefore, they have no way to form a strong fighting force.

And when these mobs encounter a powerful attack, once they get frustrated, they will be defeated immediately.

Therefore, the second attack on the inner city, naturally, became an easy task!
Well, after capturing the second inner city, the officials in Jianye City, basically, have fallen into endless panic.

Although the time to break the city has not yet come, they have already moved their minds to escape.

Moreover, when Sun Quan held the parliament, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty also lost their previous righteous indignation.

And only Lu Xun, who was deposed, still has the idea of ​​resisting the enemy and defending his country at this time.

So, just after that meeting ended, they were reinstated by officials one after another.

Only this time, the situation Lu Xun faced was even worse, and even simple defense had become an extremely extravagant thing.

However, even so, the military appearance and military discipline were still sorted out in the shortest possible time.

Although some things are just superficial work, his resolute execution method is enough to shock people.

The third inner city was the last barrier of Jianye City. If this city fell, Sun Quan would have no way out.

So this battle can basically be said to be a key battle that can determine the ownership of Soochow!

In this battle, Lu Xun and Sun Quan also put on their armor and went into battle, trying to be the last one to turn the tide!
