Chapter 1748: The general is mighty!

Mu Chen jumped up abruptly, and asked, "Where? Where is the enemy?"

The soldier took a breath and said, "It should be Jiuli, they somehow learned

where we are storing food and grass, and they have sent soldiers to sneak

attack and want to burn up our food and grass!"

Zhao Shu stretched out his hand and picked up the sword, and said in a deep

voice, "Let's take a look."

In the evening, the snow is heavy.

The world is gloomy.

There were shouts from a distance following the wind.

Zhao Shu rolled over and rode on his horse, his cloak lifted up the snow and

mist, shining with silver light.

He rode his horse to the grain and grass, and was encountering a sneak attack,

shooting arrows with fire at the grain and grass.

Two places have caught fire.

"Mu Chen, take someone to put out the fire!"

Zhao Shu cut off an arrow with a sword, and personally led people to stop the

enemy army from shooting arrows.

"His Royal Highness, are you surprised?"

I don't know where, Ji Wenyuan's voice came.

Zhao Shu didn't say a word, swinging his sword to separate the arrows, looking

unmoved, but his ears were judging Ji Wenyuan's position.

"General, I don't know what their arrows are on. The fire is hard to

extinguish."

Zhao Shu glanced back around.

There are already four grain depots on fire.

Many Dazhou soldiers surrounded the fire and poured water on the fire. Not

only did the fire stay extinguished, but because of the increase in water, it

tended to burn more and more intensely.

The soldiers fighting the fire could not effectively resist, and ten people

had died under the arrow of the sneak attack.

Zhao Shu suddenly remembered a sentence Yun Dai said.

He acted decisively and shouted: "The order goes on, stop using water and use

snow instead. Cover the fire with snow!"

Upon hearing this, the soldiers immediately executed his orders, using wooden

barrels, weapons, or simply hands, desperately piling snow onto the fire.

In Beiqi, nothing else, snow is everywhere.

The effect of this trick is immediate.

The fire covered in snow soon went out.

The soldiers cheered.

"The general is mighty!"

They worshipped the general to death.

Ji Wenyuan’s voice came again: "His Royal Highness Qin really lives up to his

fame. It's weird, I'm not afraid of water, so how can I be afraid of snow?

Snow is not water?"

Zhao Shu scanned the surroundings and slowly said, "Water and snow are

different."

"What is the difference?"

"Water is liquid, and snow is solid. Fire requires...oxygen. Snow isolates

oxygen, so the fire is extinguished."

"..."

Ji Wenyuan didn't know if he was stunned by this explanation, and did not

speak for a long time.

After a while, his voice came again: "What kind of liquid oxygen, I have never

heard of it. Is King Qin bewitching the crowd?"

"How can a mortal like you understand."

As Zhao Shu spoke, he suddenly jumped up from his horse, and his long sword

pierced into a snowdrift.

The snow mist rose all over the sky, the snow pile suddenly exploded, and a

figure rushed into the sky.

Ji Wenyuan laughed loudly: "His Royal Highness King Qin is really amazing, he

can see through my hiding so quickly."

Zhao Shu said coldly: "Ji Wenyuan, are you still done? You dare not take the

move on the front battlefield. Is it interesting to make a sneak attack every

other time?"

"Interesting, especially interesting."

Ji Wenyuan was wrapped in a black cloak, standing in the snow with his arms

folded, and when he was smiling, the scars on his face followed with a smile,

"I have to admit that I am not your opponent. I don't want to let me.

Subordinates are meaningless sacrifices. So, I won't fight you."

"Then what are you doing now?"

"I'm consuming you bit by bit." Ji Wenyuan said, "My people have lived in the

snow since they were born, and they know the situation in the snow better than

anyone. I will burn you some food and grass today, tomorrow. Sneak attack on a

patrol team. Well, let me calculate, when the Northern Qi King arrives, your

food and grass should almost be exhausted."
