Chapter 193: Whimsy



In the dark night, the stars are dotted, and you can only see ten zhang in front of you when you look far away, and the barren mountains and villages in the distance can only vaguely see the general outline. It can really be said that the earth is the same color as the sky.

The soldiers of the brigade marched under the cover of the night, and this county order was worthy of an acquaintance who traveled back and forth between the two counties all the year round, and now it was as good as daytime. Zhao Yi and the others did not waste time on discerning the path.

After the army marched for two hours, after crossing a mound, Zhao Yi saw the torches that looked like sparks under the mound, and waved his hand to stop the soldiers. This place is less than five miles away from the camp of the Xiongnu tribes, and a slightly larger movement will definitely arouse the vigilance of the department, if that is the case, Zhao Yi's previous efforts will be wasted.

Although Zhao Yi has never fought with the Huns, but the Huns' courage and strength, Zhao Yi has long heard of it, and its ability to respond to danger is not much worse than that of the Wuhuan tribe, so that Zhao Yi can say this, proving that the Huns' reaction ability will not be weaker than that of the Wuhuan tribe.

Zhao Yi didn't want to use 20,000 soldiers to directly smash Huanglong and kill Qiangqu, because there were too many camps to cross in the middle, and when Zhao Yi's troops rushed to kill Qiangqu and rode a war horse, they would have already run to the ends of the earth. Zhao Yi could only retreat and burn the grain and grass as much as possible, causing chaos in the hearts of the troops of the Qiangqu Institute. Then the probability of success is much greater.

Zhao Yi observed in the dark for a while, and found that although there were many heads moving between the tents, he glanced around and did not find where the grain and grass were.

"It seems that the grain and grass camp is not with the army, so I think it is another place to be placed." Zhao Yi pondered for a while and beckoned Dian Wei to come over: "General Dian Wei and I will go to the west to investigate." ”

Dian Wei and Zhao Yi left the team and went out, Zhao Yi and Dian Wei did not ride and took off the armor on their bodies, and carefully touched the west so that even if they were discovered by the Huns, Zhao Yi and Dian Wei also had prevarications, saying that they were nearby people, lost their way in the dark night, and came here by mistake.

The two walked for about a quarter of an hour over a small hill, and saw a cottage three miles down the mountain, with a lot of horses and grain and grass in the village, and soldiers patrolling the surrounding area.

Although the light of the torches was dim, thousands of torches gathered together, and they still shone brightly as day.

And the wooden piles of the Zhaimen are as deep as two feet into the ground, and they can be broken if they are not idle. Dian Wei looked at the surrounding situation: "My lord, those tents surround the grain and grass in the middle, if we want to burn the grain and grass, we can only kill the soldiers outside first." However, looking at the number of camps on the other side, there are only 5,000 soldiers here. ”

Zhao Yi nodded, Dian Wei said well, not only is there a heavy guard here, but it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if Zhao Yi has 20,000 horses, he can't break through the gate of the village for a while. Moreover, this place is very close to the Xiongnu camp, if it is impossible to quickly burn the grain and grass and be entangled by the guarding soldiers, Qiangqu will lead the army to attack from behind, and then Zhao Yi's troops will be defeated.

There is a great risk in the army's action, Zhao Yi's eyes are uncertain, things have progressed to this point, Zhao Yi really doesn't want to give up, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Hearing the neighing of the war horse in the cottage, Zhao Yi's eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth showed joy: "I have a way." He turned his head and glanced at Dian Wei: "Does General Dian Wei have the courage to follow me to the local grain village?" ”

"Why don't you dare?" Dian Wei replied without hesitation, this answer was just a knee-jerk reaction, seeing Zhao Yi's eager look, Dian Wei grabbed Zhao Yi: "My lord, you are in danger of Youzhou, how can you easily take risks." "Even though Dian Wei has the courage of ten thousand people, but he and Zhao Yi are alone after all, An Neng confronts five thousand Hun soldiers, Dian Wei is just a martial artist, and death is not terrible for him. But Zhao Yi is different, he is in danger of Youzhou, and it is a pity to die here.

Zhao Yi struggled for a while, but how could Zhao Yi's strength confront Dian Wei, not only failed to break free, but made Dian Wei's strength increase by a point, Zhao Yi said that Dian Wei really deserved to be one of the best generals in the Three Kingdoms, but he smiled bitterly, "General, don't panic, I won't do things that I am not sure of." ”

Zhao Yi is cautious, how can he joke with his life, Dian Wei figured this out, and then let go of Zhao Yi's arm: "How do you want to behave?" ”

Zhao Yi rubbed his arm that was a little red by Dian Wei, and when he heard Dian Wei's questioning words, a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "General Dian Wei, today we will let others see how the two of them destroyed the enemy's grain and grass." ”

If it weren't for Dian Wei's confidence in Zhao Yi's resourcefulness, he would definitely think that Zhao Yi was crazy, and the two of them rushed to kill, just like two pebbles thrown into a calm lake, although it could cause a ripple, but it wouldn't take long for the water surface to be as calm as ever.

"In the face of such a tight defense, leading the troops to rush down is simply hitting the tip of the opponent's arrow. If the two of us want to get in, we'll need to play tricks. Zhao Yi briefly explained the plan of action, beckoned Dian Wei to follow him, and the two quietly touched the periphery of the cottage and saw a team of patrol soldiers walking in front of him. Zhao Yi raised his head at Dian Wei, Dian Wei nodded lightly and suddenly rushed out, his arms suddenly hit the necks of the last two soldiers, and the sudden attack made the two soldiers fall under Dian Wei's iron arm before they could scream.

Dian Wei quickly carried the two over, and Zhao Yi changed into the clothes of the Huns, disposed of the corpses of the two, looked up and looked around, and saw that no one paid attention to this, Zhao Yi and Dian Wei swaggered out of the shadows and slipped in directly from the main entrance.

When he walked past the main gate, Dian Wei's heart was pounding, and he looked at the soldiers on both sides vigilantly, thinking in his heart how he could knock down the other party quickly and ruthlessly if he made a move. What made Dian Wei strange was that Zhao Yi's expression was quite indifferent, as if he was a member of the Xiongnu. Dian Wei didn't know that makeup penetration was Zhao Yi's forte in his previous life.

The more indifferent you look, the less likely the other party will be to suspect you.

Successfully mixed into the grain and grass camp, Zhao Yi and Dian Wei, who were holding torches, slowly approached the grain and grass, and Dian Wei was about to press the grain and grass with the torch in hand, but Zhao Yi pulled him: "Wait!" As he spoke, he looked around vigilantly, and saw that no one noticed this detail among the Hun soldiers around, and his nervous expression slowly relaxed.

"My lord, such a good opportunity, as long as this torch is pressed, the grain and grass can be dried in such a short time and a huge fire can be ignited." Dian Wei didn't understand Zhao Yi's actions to stop him.

Zhao Yi looked around: "What the general said is good, pressing the torch down can indeed ignite a sky-high fire," and then Zhao Yi pointed to the surrounding straw granaries, "But general, you see, there are more than a hundred straw granaries here, and you and I are afraid that before ten are lit, we will be discovered by the guards of the guards, and even if you and I have three heads and six arms, we will definitely die under the other party's chaotic knife." ”

"So how do we do it?" Acting like this was too bright, Dian Wei had to stop and ask Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yi didn't speak, but walked to the stable with some grass, and motioned for Dian Wei to take some too. Although Dian Wei didn't know what Zhao Yi meant by this, he still obeyed Zhao Yi's instructions and hugged some.

Watching Zhao Yi walk to the stable, Dian Wei groped his chin, does the adult want to feed the horse? Zhao Yi, who entered the stable, did not feed the horse, but tied the fodder to the horse's tail, poured the stolen fire oil on it, and ignited the fodder on the horse's tail with a sneer.

The burning sensation from the tail made these originally calm and docile horses slowly become impatient, especially the fire burned down the grass to the tail, and the pain caused the horses to let out a burst of neighing, constantly breaking free from the reins, and the stable soon swayed.

"Break the stake!" Zhao Yi ordered.

Dian Wei broke the stake with a punch, and the entire stable collapsed in an instant under the drag of hundreds of war horses, and the free war horses ran wildly under the stimulation of the fire.

This sudden situation caught the Hun soldiers off guard, and the wooden stakes of the Zhaimen that had penetrated into the ground for fear of the enemy's attack turned out to be mortally wounded at this moment. The war horses could not run out, so they could only rampage in the grain and grass camp, and the flames dragged by the tail contaminated the haystack of grain, causing a monstrous fire in a short time.

Many soldiers carrying wooden barrels to fight the fire were staggered by the horses, and there was only a small amount of water left, and as the splashing slowly decreased, the general was quite surprised to see this situation, and the order was very correct, and ordered the soldiers to kill the horses while fighting the fire.

Although the order was correct, it was too late, and in less than a quarter of an hour, all the grain and grass in the grain and grass camp were ignited, and the flames were clearly visible dozens of miles into the sky.

Zhao Yi saw that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, and it was already uncontrollable, so he greeted Dian Wei, who was still standing: "This matter has been completed, the general hurry up!" ”

Dian Wei woke up like a dream, turned over on his horse, and left here with Zhao Yi, the soldiers who hurriedly put out the fire found that Zhao Yi and the two left, but at this time it was important to save grain and grass, and Zhao Yi rode a horse and ran into the darkness in the blink of an eye, and the soldiers may not even have time to pull out their bows and arrows at this time.

Zhao Yi and the others came and went calmly, and as soon as the fast horse arrived at Wen Qin and the others, they saw that the Hun battalion had dispatched a lot of soldiers, Zhao Yi looked at the fire in the west, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It's too late, the so-called fire is monstrous, and the glass of water is not enough." ”

Wen Qin and the others all stared at Zhao Yi in disbelief, "The two of you actually destroyed the heavily guarded grain and grass camp!" "It's incredible. Wen Qin was still discussing the encirclement and reinforcement with Lou Man just now, and the two discussed for a long time without results, but they didn't expect Zhao Yi and the two of them to do this big thing, and hurriedly asked Zhao Yi how he did it.

Dian Wei briefly recounted what happened in the camp, and Wen Qin couldn't help but sigh in his heart, I'm afraid that only Zhao Yi can come up with such a wonderful way.

"Taking advantage of the panic of the Huns at this time, we led our troops to rush down and kill them, wouldn't it be nice to kill them by surprise?" Lou Man stood up and asked Zhao Yi excitedly. They are all ready to rush and kill.

Instead of agreeing to Lou Man's proposal, Zhao Yi ordered the soldiers to rush to Huai'an County.

Lou Man was puzzled by Zhao Yi's order, and asked Zhao Yi eagerly: "Now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, why don't we use it?" ”
