The Northern Expedition is a foregone conclusion, and the people of several counties are about to be involved in the war again.

Ye Shikai couldn't convince Mi Wen, as a courtier, he could only obey orders.

"Xue San, you set off immediately, sneak into Nanyang, and find out the intelligence of each county, including soldiers and horses, money and food, and preparations, everything that involves military affairs, I need it, remember, you only have two days. After Mi Wen left, Ye Shikai immediately called Xue San and gave him an urgent order.

"Two days, so anxious. When Xue San heard this request, he couldn't help but feel a burst of pressure, two days is too short, just the journey, I'm afraid it will take two days to come and go, let alone to find out information.

"Yes, because in two days, the army will set off, and this time it will be a quick battle, if I predict it correctly, in a month, a large number of Qin troops will move south from the Central Plains, and then the tide of the battle will be reversed, so ...... If the war is not over within a month, I will definitely persuade the lord to withdraw his troops. ”

"I see, please rest assured, my lordship, the last general will set off immediately, and he will not fail in his mission. Xue Sanzuo said, turned around and left the tent, and set off with his brothers to Nanyang.

Mi Wen used Wuxian as the granary of the army, this matter must have been planned a long time ago, in just one hour, hundreds of thousands of stones of grain and grass were transported here, as well as tens of thousands of pairs of armor and weapons, and millions of arrows, this is indeed the equipment that Ye Shikai has seen the most.

"Lao Ye, there is too much equipment transported from various counties, and the warehouse in Wu County is not big, I'm afraid it's not enough. Shangguan Jian reported.

"Ordered the sergeants to expand the warehouse, and if it was not enough, find a flat place and put up a wooden wall as a barrier. Ye Shikai instructed, after all, Wuxian is only a small county, with a population of less than 100,000, how can the warehouse be so big, it can hold hundreds of thousands of stone grain.

"I understand, time is urgent, I'll do it. ”

"Wait a minute. Ye Shikai suddenly shouted.

"Old Ye, is there anything else. ”

"Do you know that my lord and I were assassinated by assassins in the bamboo forest today. Ye Shikai asked.

"Of course, although the lord doesn't let Konoe talk about it, I already know it. ”

"I think this was done by the imperial court, so I suspect that they already know the truth of Wuxian, and if this is the case, we must protect these grains, grasses and ordnance. Ye Shikai specially told that since ancient times, logistics and baggage have been the most important part of the expedition, especially now, the imperial court has known their actions, if assassins are sent to burn these grains and grass, then everything will be over.

"Since these assassins can quietly lurk in the bamboo forest to attack me and my lord, they can also sneak into the warehouse and manipulate the military rations. ”

"Lao Ye, don't worry, I will personally lead troops to patrol around the warehouse in the past two days to ensure that there will be no problems. Shangguan Jian nodded and said.

"That's great, I'm relieved to have you there. ”

…………………………………………………………

Late at night.

Ye Shikai didn't fall asleep for a long time, and the 20,000 brothers were divided into four teams, one team was stationed in the city, and the other three teams took turns patrolling to protect the safety of materials.

The imperial court is not stupid, if they know that the grain and grass are placed in Wuxian, it is impossible to be indifferent, even if it is difficult to succeed, they have to try.

"Report, no, the granary suddenly caught fire, and General Shangguan is leading the troops to organize the extinguishing. Suddenly, one of the guards hurried in and shouted loudly, very anxious.

"What, the guards are coming with me. Ye Shikai was shocked in his heart, although he had expected this result countless times, he was still taken aback, and immediately stood up and walked out.

"Wow. ”

Ye Shikai came to the place where the fire was burning, this is one of the warehouses, hundreds of sergeants have surrounded this place, and the rest of the people have taken buckets and come to put out the fire, the warehouses near here are all cloth and grain and grass, if it is not for so many sergeants to surround and control the fire in this warehouse, then the situation will be dangerous, there is a strong wind at night, if you don't care, the fire will definitely get out of control.

"Lao Ye, you're here. Shangguan Jian hurriedly ran over, his face was black, it was all smoked, and the fire was together, he personally stepped forward to extinguish the fire, and even his clothes were burned off.

At the beginning of the Eagle Ridge Fortress, Ye Shikai fell for the other party's fire plan, and more than a thousand brothers were burned alive, so as soon as he saw the fire, he had some shadows in his heart.

"Shangguan, are you okay. Ye Shikai hurriedly asked.

"Don't worry, I'm fine, but I was slightly grazed by the flames. Shangguan Jian shook his head, "Lao Ye, I don't have the ability, so I let the fine work set fire." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, you took someone to extinguish it in time, didn't let the fire spread, and minimized the loss, this is already a work, you are burned, hurry up and find a military doctor to take a look, leave it to me here." Ye Shikai waved his hand, this is just a small warehouse, and there are two or three hundred stones of grain in it, as well as more than a dozen pieces of cloth, and the loss is not big, which can be regarded as a great fortune.

Hundreds of sergeants kept transporting water and quickly extinguished the fire, Ye Shikai did not dare to be careless, and sent two thousand sergeants to guard it to ensure that there would not be any "dead ends".

Tent.

"Well, the injury is better. Ye Shikai asked.

"It's okay, rub some ointment to heal burns, and you'll be fine in a few days. Shangguan Jian nodded, and asked anxiously, "Old Ye, how many supplies have we lost?" ”

"Don't worry, it's not much, hundreds of stones of grain and grass and a dozen pieces of cloth, it doesn't matter. Ye Shikai waved his hand.

"It's because the last general is not strictly guarded, so that those fine works have a chance. ”

"It's okay, it's not your fault. Ye Shikai knew very well that if those arsonists were cultivators, then it would not be difficult to avoid the vision of ordinary sergeants.

"Sure enough, as I expected, those fine works have already set their sights on Wu County, in the future, if we go to the front line, what will Wu County do. Ye Shikai couldn't help but feel a burst of pressure, since ancient times, granaries have been the key objects of protection, and cultivators are far beyond ordinary people in speed, so they are the most suitable for sneak attacks, so he must suggest to Qi Wen that he send some cultivators to guard Wu County in case they are attacked by the Qin army again.

Following.

As soon as the day dawned, Ye Shikai took dozens of guards and rode towards Jiangling County.

"What's the matter with General Ye. The sergeant in the city shouted.

"I have something urgent to tell my lord, and I will open the city gate quickly. ”

"Oh, open the gates. ”

Feudal official.

"What's the matter, I heard the general guarding the city say, you entered the city in a hurry as soon as it was dawn, could it be that something happened in Wuxian. Mi Wen asked.

"I'm here this time because I have something important to tell you. ”
