After adjusting the formation, Xu Shu was not as cautious as before, but walked forward with some grace.

"Strategist, how do you know that thieves will sneak up on the front of our army?" Zhao Yun saw that Xu Shu looked like he was holding the chance to win, and asked with some curiosity, "What if the thieves are sneaking into the rear of our army?" ”

"Hahaha, General Zhao has a way to march, just like I transport grain, because our army has never known where the enemy is attacking, so I put the real grain by my side, so as not to lose whether the thieves are attacking from the front or the rear, we will not lose too much grain and grass." Xu Shu looked at the surrounding terrain and said softly.

"Then why is the military advisor now putting the grain and grass at the end of the farthest line from us!" Zhao Yun looked around vigilantly and asked Xu Shu.

"That's because we already know that the thieves are ambushing us in front of us, and if they want to get great results, they will attack our front team, and try to kill us, so that they will get all the food and grass." Xu Shu said slowly, "We are a delicious bait, which is also the reason why ordinary thieves sneak up on the front of the grain team!" ”

"What if they want to sneak up on the back or the middle of our line?" Zhao Yun nodded and continued.

"General Zhao, now that you know the enemy's ambush location, will you still let the enemy get what he wants?" Xu Shu said to Zhao Yun with some amusement.

After hearing this, a flush suddenly appeared on Zhao Yun's originally pink cheeks, like a shy little daughter-in-law!

While the two were talking and laughing, the grain team was getting closer and closer to the ambush site....

At the end of the road, a winding road passes through the dense jungle, and the warm sunlight sprinkles at the end of the road, which only supports the darkness in the deep forest!

"Strategist, the light here is so mixed! I'm afraid that the ambush army is here, please be careful and follow me! Zhao Yun keenly sensed that there were hostile glances in the jungle from time to time, and he turned his head to Xu Shu and whispered.

"It doesn't matter! They can't hurt me yet! Xu Shu shook his head lightly and said. General Zhao also asked to secretly issue an order, telling the soldiers to be careful and not to capsize in the gutter! ”

Zhao Yun nodded slightly, stretched out a hand behind his back and made a few strange gestures, and the expressions of the soldiers behind the two began to become serious and cautious, and the weapons were firmly held in their hands.

Just as Zhao Yun and the others slowly walked into the woods with the team, the thieves hidden in the shadows also began to act....

"Will... My lord, the soldiers have entered the place where we are ambushing! A thief ran through the woods and saluted a muscular man.

When the 'king' heard his subordinates' words, he glared at him fiercely, "You give me to be smart, we are not soldiers!" ”

"Yes, King!" When the thief heard this, he quickly relaxed his body and said to the thief leader.

The thief leader got up and said to the thief behind him, "Little guys, give me some cleverness, and I will withdraw when the rocket is released!" Don't miss me, you know what to do if you get caught! ”

"Yes, King!" The thieves also whispered in unison.

"Good! Follow me! The thief nodded slightly, then turned around and walked slowly in the direction of the official road, and the thieves followed quietly.

After a while, the thief leader appeared in the woods not far from the official road, and the many thieves behind him slowly dispersed, bending their bows and arrows at the grain team in the road.

"King, shall we act?" One of the thieves beside the leader asked, looking at the slowly moving grain team below.

"Wait, wait for them to bring most of the food team to our ambush circle to operate!" The thief leader suppressed the impulse in his heart and said slowly.

Zhao Yun and Xu Shu rode on their horses, chatting casually and observing their surroundings.

"Why don't they act! If you continue like this, you will almost reach the point where the real grain will enter the forest. Zhao Yun said to Xu Shu a little anxiously.

"General Zhao, don't worry, wait and see." Xu Shu was also a little unable to sit still, but still comforted Zhao Yun and said.

"Why don't you shout at me! It's really too late to go on like this! Zhao Yun watched the grain team behind him continue to march towards the forest, and the pressure in his heart became more and more intense.

"General, look at this dense forest, I'm afraid there is an enemy ambush!" Suddenly, Xu Shu said loudly.

Not only Zhao Yun and the soldiers of Youzhou came to ambush the thieves on the mountain, but they were also shocked, and almost released the sharp arrows in their hands.

Zhao Yun looked at Xu Shu with some doubts, and when he saw Xu Shu's mouth move slightly, he immediately understood Xu Shu's intentions.

"Why did the military advisor say this! How could someone come to ambush our Youzhou troops! It must be that the military advisor is overthinking! Zhao Yun turned over and dismounted, hung the spear in his hand on the horse, and walked to the side of the road alone to rest, "If you want me to say that the army has marched so far under the scorching sun, let's rest here for a while!" ”

"General, how can this be done! Yuan Mengzhu is still waiting for us to deliver food! Although Xu Shu was persuading Zhao Yun not to rest, he also turned over and dismounted, walked to Zhao Yun's side and sat down.

The soldiers who followed behind couldn't help but be stunned when they saw their military advisors and generals behaving like this, but then they still took their weapons and found a flat place to sit down, but as long as they were careful, they could find that the weapons of the Youzhou soldiers were all placed beside them, and their eyes looked around from time to time without a little relaxation.

The thief on the mountain looked at Xu Shu and Zhao Yun's style, and couldn't help frowning, it stands to reason that he should be happy, but I don't know why I feel that something is wrong in my heart....

"King! What a chance! Now we have a godsend! A thief looked at the scene on the official road and said to the thief leader, his eyes were full of eagerness!

The thief leader looked at the people around him who were eager to try, and although he had doubts in his heart, he had no chance to let his subordinates settle down.

"Listen to me! Rocket salvo! The thief said loudly, and suddenly the thieves set fire on their arrows, and launched them towards the official road without aiming, for them, the grain cart placed in the middle of the official road was a dead target, and several rounds of arrow rain would more or less hit.

Zhao Yun looked at the rockets that kept flying out of the forest, and although he was prepared in his heart, he was still a little anxious, and shouted, "Enemy attack!" Raise your shield, raise your shield! ”

Before Zhao Yun finished speaking, the Youzhou soldiers had already raised the shield around him to protect themselves firmly behind the shield, and most of the targets of the rockets were the grain and grass in the pipeline, so the Youzhou soldiers almost did not have any casualties, and the only loss was probably the grain truck that ignited the skyrocketing fire in the pipeline.

Xu Shu looked at the fire in the official road and hurriedly shouted, "Fight the fire!" Hurry up and put out the fire! Grab the food! ”

When the soldiers in Youzhou heard this, they also pretended to rush to the fire, and kept using their shields to extinguish the burning fire, and suddenly the whole scene seemed noisy!

"King! Let's rush a wave! One of the thieves persuaded the thief leader, "Then we will be the first to defeat the Youzhou army!" ”

I have to say that this suggestion really disturbed the minds of all the thieves present, and they all looked at the Youzhou soldiers who were constantly extinguishing the fire under the mountain.

"Listen to my orders, leave a few people to watch the burning! The rest of the people retreated with me! In the end, the thief leader didn't know what he was thinking, and said to the thieves around him.

After hearing the thief's order, the thieves' faces couldn't help but show disappointment, but they didn't say anything, except for a few people left, the rest followed the thief leader towards the depths of the dense forest, and disappeared after a while....

Xu Shu also noticed that the woods had regained quiet, and then whispered to Zhao Yun, "General Zhao, the thieves should have retreated, but we still need to do this in order to leave their eyeliner......"

Half an hour later, the fire burning on the pipeline was finally extinguished by the Youzhou soldiers, leaving the remnants all over the ground.

Xu Shu's eyes were red when he looked at the grain and grass that was still smoking, and Zhao Yun was even more guilty.

"Search the mountains for me! I want the heads of those thieves! Zhao Yun suddenly shouted loudly.

"General, no! Now we've lost most of our food! It's better to transport the rest of the grain and grass back to the Allied camp! Xu Shu hurriedly pulled Zhao Yun and said.

"But the thieves have burned so much of the grain and grass of our army, and we are just gone? When has I ever suffered such a big loss in Youzhou! Zhao Yun retorted.

"The general is now begging for the director, and the shame of our Youzhou can wait for the east to be over, and lead the Youzhou army to report it slowly! Why rush to delay the discussion of Dong for a while! Xu Shu hugged Zhao Yun's arm and said.

"But we have burned so much grain and grass, what should we do if the alliance leader blames it?" Zhao Yun seemed to be shaken by Xu Shu's persuasion, but looked at the wreckage all over the ground and said without tears.

"This...."Xu Shu couldn't help but hesitate a little after hearing this, "It's better to be like this, after we arrived at the camp, we said that we only got so much grain and grass." ”

"But that's not enough for the Allies!" Zhao Yun said tangledly.

"General, that's also Jizhou's pastor's business, what does it have to do with us? Let's get on our way! The rest of the grain and grass can't afford to be consumed like this! Xu Shu said admonishingly to Zhao Yun.

"Alright! Just according to the words of the military advisor! Zhao Yun looked at everyone's black faces and said helplessly, "Herald army!" Quickly transport the grain and grass behind it through this section of the woods! Be careful, don't make a mistake! ”

When the Youzhou soldiers heard this, they immediately began to act, and the thieves who stayed on the mountain to investigate the situation saw it, and they also ran quickly towards the mountains and forests and disappeared.

But what they didn't know was that after they left, several straw men also got up and walked down the mountain.....
