Crowned with Pearls

   Chapter 1087 Eighty-six City Break

It was already dark. The night outside Dali City was very beautiful. The sky was dense with stars. Through the starlight, I could see the colorful clouds being blown by the wind. Xiao Heng lay on the grass outside the tent and looked at the sky with his head on his head. He heard it after a while. He didn't turn his head at the sound of footsteps, but just asked, "Why, is there any news from the city?"

  Su Rong put his footsteps a little lighter, and when he walked to Xiao Heng's side, he simply sat down.

In this military camp, in fact, he does not pay much attention to the level of identity. Even Xiao Heng is very clear about this. He usually eats and lives with the soldiers. Heng Bian snorted: "I said that I have woken up. It seems that my life is saved."

   Xiao Heng twitched the corners of his mouth: "Life is really hard enough, so I can survive."

"Isn't this just right? With your archery, if you really want to kill him, why would you just let him run away with injuries? Isn't that the day you've been waiting for?" Su Rong rolled his eyes, what Xiao Heng said. , that is, to deceive someone who doesn't know it, doesn't he know Xiao Heng's deep meaning?

The reason why Mouton's wound could not heal was not because the wound was too deep, nor because the doctor's medical skills were not good, but because Xiao Heng had poisoned the arrow long ago. What he wanted was this effect. .

  Only in this way, Mouton will lose the hearts of the people, and the court will be what the people want.

When    was told, Xiao Heng was not at all embarrassed. He gave Su Rong a sigh and said, "Then according to you, when should they launch the last blow?"

   Having said that, Xiao Heng had already sat up and surrounded the bonfire with Su Rong.

  Su Rong tapped the ground and said softly, "Cut the mess with a quick knife."

   For Mouton, a day's delay would cost him his life. After all, his soldiers couldn't get better quickly, but would cause bigger problems due to lack of food.

   Under this premise, they have almost no choice.

  The two looked at each other, and both showed tacit smiles. At the same time, Xiao Heng had already stood up: "Call the generals to discuss matters!"

   After half an hour, the generals came out of Xiao Heng's tent one after another and went back.

   They have meetings every night, and it doesn't look like anything special today.

  The barracks were all quiet, except for the soldiers in charge of guarding and patrolling, everyone else had fallen asleep.

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and suddenly there was an abrupt vibration in the quiet night. The vibration was rumbling, like a thunderstorm in summer, or like a rolling flood. The guards on patrol had already realized that something was wrong, and opened their eyes wide in horror. Looking from a distance, I saw many dense lanterns suddenly appeared in the dark night.

   They were all stunned. The lantern was hanging in the air, moving quickly towards them. That kind of scene really made the scalp tingle.

   And when the lantern was getting closer, I didn't know who shouted in horror: "It's not a lantern, it's not a ghost fire, it's an elephant!"

Elephant!

   Groups of elephants rushed towards the barracks.

  Look at that posture, in front of many people, they were all crushed.

  Even well-trained, the guards couldn't help but panic.

   At this moment, I don't know who shouted: "Array!"

   The originally dark and quiet barracks moved quickly, and countless people came out of the darkness and passed the guards who were in danger and came to the front.

   Xiao Heng and Su Rong were both among them. The two of them looked at the rushing elephants, and they did not panic. Instead, there was a feeling that it was so. It was Xiao Heng who raised his hand and commanded coldly, "Release the arrows!"

   Before coming to Yunnan, Xiao Heng had listened to Cui Dalu's detailed analysis of the situation in Yunnan, and naturally he knew that Dali had elephant soldiers.

  Elephant soldiers are so arrogant and powerful that even Duke Cheng can only avoid their edge. Whenever there are elephant soldiers, the imperial army cannot resist.

   But Cui Daru found a way for the locals to deal with elephants from the government records.

  Elephant soldiers are indeed powerful, but they are not without shortcomings.

  Although they have rough skin and thick flesh, it is difficult for ordinary knives and guns to damage them, but they are afraid of fire, and fire can burn their skin.

   So this time Xiao Heng had already prepared a batch of rockets.

   When it was estimated that it was almost the end, he gave an order, and the archers who were already ready started one after another.

  Those improved bows and arrows have a much longer range than ordinary arrows. When those rockets fell into the elephants, they heard the panicked shouts and scoldings of the people who controlled the elephants.

The elephants themselves are afraid of fire. Those rockets fell on them and on the soldiers. They soon ignited a lot of things, forming a small sea of ​​fire. The elephants lost control immediately. The elephant went mad and threw the soldiers off his body, running wildly.

   In the end, those who were left to rush towards Xiao Heng and the others were already incomparable compared to the previous ones.

   Xiao Heng made persistent efforts to let people continue to shoot arrows, and sure enough, the elephant soldiers also went mad.

Before those people wanted to set fire oil on the weaving farm and set it on fire, now Xiao Heng has used this trick on their elephant soldiers. His bows and arrows are all bold, and they are all dipped in kerosene. Once the bows and arrows go out , the fire is not so easy to put out.

   When those people were overwhelmed and confused, Xiao Heng and the others ended the battle at dawn without much effort.

   Those elephant soldiers have been almost consumed.

   Mouton's last hole card was also used up.

Moreover, at the same time, the worst is not the case. Mouton sent elephant soldiers out. With so many elephant soldiers, there is no way to not destroy the houses and farmland of the people. Many people were trampled to death and injured. The house was destroyed, and everyone felt chilled at Mouton's disregard for the lives of the people.

   Moutong almost fainted again in the wooden house.

   If it wasn't for the fact that his only remaining son was in front of him, he would have wanted to cut people with a knife.

To make matters worse, not long after the news of Xiangbing's defeat in the battle was sent back, another worse news was sent in-someone saw Miss Mu San and Mu Qinglu, who were killed by the chieftain of Zhennan Prefecture in person. After sending it back, he said he wanted to testify against him, an unkind, disloyal, disloyal, and unfilial rebel.

   Mouton couldn't hold it anymore, he vomited a mouthful of blood and fainted.

   Qin Fen's face turned pale. At this time, even if he had a plan, he didn't know how to use it. After thinking about it, he rushed home and wanted to arrange for his children and wives and concubines to escape from the secret passage.

  Who knew that before he could go back, the city gate was already broken.
