Chapter 468: Burning Grain and Grass
It is said that Xu Ding did not lure the enemy with Xu Chu's Mo Daowei, what did he do, of course, with a thousand left cavalry guards and two thousand avant-garde soldiers, taking advantage of the fact that Gao Ran had just been transferred to the western front to pursue Xu Shu, he quietly crossed the river and went towards Lin Shucheng from the Tangyin line.
When it rains, the patrolmen don't pay much attention.
As early as a day ago, Xu Ding touched Yuan Shao's fart. Behind the strand, waiting for an opportunity to launch a blitzkrieg.
The purpose of his attack was not elsewhere, but the grain and grass on the side of Yuan Shao's camp.
This time, Xu Ding only had 3,000 people, and it was impossible to fight with Yuan Shao stupidly, so he had already set his eyes on the grain and grass behind Yuan Shao's army.
After contacting the people of the heaven and earth, Xu Ding led 3,000 people to take advantage of the night rain to swagger to Yuan Shao's grain and grass land.
At this time, the guards of the grain and grass were Yuan Shao's generals Chun Yuqiong, as well as the partial generals Lu Weihuang and Han Juzi.
The dark night was washed by the rain, Xu Ding tried his best to control the speed of the march, and when he arrived here, the rain stopped and the wind fell.
"Who?"
Seeing the sudden appearance of the army without torches, the soldiers on duty in the camp burst into their hearts and shouted loudly.
They were greeted by three or two sharp arrows.
'Ahh
With a scream, a group of soldiers guarding the gate fell off the watchtower.
Xu Ding smashed the wall at the front of the horse, and the camp gate was smashed open by a huge force, and then he picked up the rejection horse in the camp gate and crashed into the patrol team that rushed up.
"Kill!"
The cavalry followed Xu Ding to kill, and killed the Yuan soldiers who had just come out of the tent but rushed to fly, Dian Wei led two thousand foot soldiers behind, and they also cut down when they saw the enemy like a killing god, and the Yuan soldiers who were not even in a hurry to get weapons jumped up.
"Come and fight back with me!"
Chun Yuqiong is not as good as Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang Jaw, and Gao Ran, but his prestige is not low.
When Emperor Ling was there, he was still one of the eight captains of the West Garden, and he was as famous as Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others.
Therefore, he defected to Yuan Shao, which indirectly boosted Yuan Shao's prestige, and Yuan Shao also treated him with special courtesy, which fully demonstrated his trust.
So Chun Yuqiong put on armor, took weapons to stabilize the rout, and prepared to counterattack.
Lu Weihuang and Han Juzi also followed, and gathered the soldiers with their own personal guards to prepare to fight to the death.
"Kill!" The three of them saw that they were riding in front, and Xu Ding, who was brave and unhindered, also slapped his horse and rushed over.
Xu Dingzheng was killing up, and suddenly saw several horsemen coming from the back camp to kill, and there was a group of Yuan Jun who were screaming and wanting to fight back, and the strength in his hand couldn't help but increase the score, and he directly shot out first.
Chun Yuqiong's weapon also collided with it, and then the whole person was like Feng Zheng with a broken thread, only to feel a feeling of bitterness in his chest, and the person flew upside down and crashed into a tent.
Lu Weihuang and Han Juzi were shocked, who was so fierce, Chun Yuqiong couldn't even block a move and flew away.
However, the two of them thought that they were ready to fly, and they could not retreat at this time, and the two weapons attacked the left and right sides of Xu Ding.
Xu Ding put away his gun and blocked it, shook back and defused Han Juzi's attack, and then dodged and kicked out, kicking Lu Weihuang's weapon, and Lu Weihuang couldn't help but fall off the horse.
Xu Ding stabbed back the gun and stabbed Lu Weihuang, who had fallen off the horse, into a deep heart.
The fight with the three generals was only a short time, and Xu Ding rushed to the rear of the camp first, and defeated the soldiers and generals that Chun Yuqiong and the three had finally gathered.
Three thousand soldiers rushed to kill for a while, killing Yuan Shaojun's ghosts and howling wolves, and they dodged one after another, Han Juzi had palpitations, and did not dare to step forward and face Xu Ding, so he had to take the injured Chun Yuqiong to avoid the edge temporarily.
Only then did Xu Ding set fire to the camp with a group of people, and burned all Yuan Shao's grain and grass.
"Let's go!" After finishing this vote, Xu Ding left with 3,000 soldiers and disappeared into the vast night.
Not long after, the troops sent by Yuan Shao to support arrived, and when they saw the scene of the entire camp being on fire and all the grain and grass basically burning, their faces were distorted to extremely hideous and terrifying.
"Bang!"
Yuan Shao's palm slapped heavily on the table, with a look of anger and resentment, his eyes seemed to be about to eat people, staring at the embarrassed Han Juzi and Chun Yuqiong fiercely.
"Rubbish! Why don't you die in battle with Lu Weihuang, our army's grain and grass, a month's grain and grass are gone, do you know what the consequences of the army will be? Yuan Shao kicked over the small case table again, and he was extremely angry in his heart.
He really wanted to cut the two of them with a knife.
"Please punish the Lord, it is our incompetence." Han Juzi and Chun Yuqiong were also ashamed, it stands to reason that they had twice as many soldiers guarding grain and grass as Xu Ding and others, but they were still attacked by the other party, and successfully burned the grain and grass, and successfully retreated.
They are also very depressed, who is the sacredness who sneaks up on them.
"Humph!" Yuan Shao flicked his sleeves and twisted to the side with a cold face.
Feng Ji on the side said: "The lord is angry, now that things are like this, it is useless to scold and blame them, the top priority is to mobilize grain and grass as soon as possible, and at the same time find out the origin of the sneak attack army!" ”
"Hmmm! What Yuan Tu said is reasonable, who do you think the sneak attack army will be? Yuan Shao also knew that it was useless to be angry, and he was just uncomfortable in his heart.
The grain and grass have been burned, and it is still feasible to raise it, but it is necessary to owe it to those big families, a favor, and Jizhou has been blessed with natural and man-made disasters in recent years, and it is actually not rich.
Feng Ji thought for a while and said, "Except for Weihai Hou Xu Ding, I really can't find anyone with such ability?" ”
inexplicably ran out of a strong army, even Han Juzi and Chun Yuqiong couldn't hold up a move, this kind of super fierce general, there are not many in the world.
Zhang Yan's martial arts skills of the Montenegrin Army are not bad, but his subordinates can only be classified as medium strength, and the fighting generals are still beaten by the Jizhou Army.
There are no other forces nearby, only Xu Ding has been scourging Wei County, and he can't keep where this team came from.
Even the person who led the army may have been Xu Ding.
In the past, he had some doubts, but he was not sure about it, but now this idea may occupy eight layers.
"The people of Xu Ding!" Speaking of Xu Ding, Yuan Shao's face fell, extremely heavy.
Xu Ding's Yuan family's number one enemy is really a difficult opponent.
Could it be that this guy is hiding soldiers and horses again, and it's useless.
Yuan Shao pondered for a long time and asked, "What is the best way for you to find out about them?" ”
Regardless of whether Xu Ding originally led this team or not, as long as it was the Donglai Army, he must die.
Yuan Shao will never allow a flea in the hinterland to run out and make trouble every day.
"Lord, if it is really Xu Ding, I think it is extremely difficult for us to find a needle in a haystack, so we should strengthen the camp guard in case he comes to attack again." Xu Ding didn't show up, and Feng Ji also said that there was no other way, the enemy was in the dark, and I was in the light, which was quite unpleasant.
"Hey! For the time being, this can only be the case, Xu Ding's purpose is to save Zhang Yan, and he will definitely appear. Yuan Shao thought for a while and said, "Tao Sheng and Zheng Gu will search for me to the north; Han Juzi, Chun Yuqiong, you two led the troops to the east to search, Wei Yuanjin, Zhao Rui, you two went back to Yecheng to escort grain and grass over! ”
"It's the lord!" From the general's order.
Yuan Shao had no intention of watching everyone leave, rubbing his temples, his heart became more and more uneasy, and he always felt that something was going to happen.
Half an hour later, suddenly the horse came from the south, and entered the camp in a panic, the face of the horse was white and bloodless, and when he entered Yuan Shao's military tent, he cried and shouted: "Lord, it's over, we're finished, the three armies are finished......"
