Chapter 38: The Encounter (Part II)

At this time, Xu Kang's troops were still five or six miles away from the Yellow Turban Army in front, and there were scouts in charge of monitoring, so he was not worried about the other party's sneak attack, and ordered the soldiers to make fires and cook.

After receiving the order, the soldiers also knew that there was a battle at night, so they did not dare to delay after receiving the rice rations, and immediately began to light a fire to cook and prepare dinner.

After giving the order to the soldiers, Xu Kang was not idle, but went directly to the rear of the troops and found the commander who transported the baggage.

After seeing Xu Kang, the chief hurriedly stepped forward and saluted him.

"My lord, according to your orders, all the rice and grain will be distributed to the soldiers!!"

"Well, that's good!" Hearing his return, Xu Kang nodded with satisfaction, and then asked, "How much baggage is left now?" ”

"Forty trucks of military tents and quilts, more than thirty trucks of forage, a total of more than seventy cars!" The chief replied.

"More than 70 cars......"

Hearing his answer, Xu Kang touched his chin and thought for a while before opening his mouth again.

"The battle we face next will be very severe, and the baggage can no longer be taken care of, but we can't leave these things to the Yellow Turban, I order you to burn all the baggage!"

"What? All burned? ”

Hearing this, the tun chief who was in charge of transporting the baggage was suddenly startled, and knelt down with a "poof".

"Lord Sima Jun, no, if all the baggage is burned, our army can only sleep in the open, in case the soldiers enter the body, it will inevitably affect the march and battle, I hope the adults will think twice!"

The wind evil enters the body, which means cold, and this Xu Kang knows it, so after hearing the words of this tun chief, he also showed a few difficult looks.

But soon, his expression became firm.

"Okay, I've made up my mind, when you attack the Yellow Turban tonight, you take people to pull all the baggage into the Yellow Turban camp and set it on fire, and set fire to its camp.

Hearing his categorical words, the tun chief in charge of transporting the baggage could only grit his teeth, hugged his fists at him again and said: "The villain must use his life!" ”

"Well, that's fine!"

Seeing him answer like this, Xu Kang nodded with satisfaction, and at the same time reached out and gently patted him on the shoulder.

"If this matter is done, I will remember you a great achievement, and if you want to be promoted and make a fortune, you will do it for me, understand?"

"Yes!" After hearing his promise, a trace of excitement flashed on the face of the chief, and he quickly replied: "The villain understands, the adult can rest assured!" ”

Seeing him like this, Xu Kang sighed in his heart, "It's really easy to hit a stick for a sweet date", and patted him on the shoulder again.

"Actually, I value you very much, do things with your heart, by the way, I don't have a suitable blade yet, you go and find me a spear, remember to ask for an iron core!"

"Yes, sir!"

Hearing his words, the tun chief immediately trotted to find him a spear, and then, not even in time for dinner, he took the men to prepare something for the fire.

Seeing him so attentive, Xu Kang was also a little relieved, and with the spear he had just arrived, he found a spacious place and began to wave it.

After eating magic bread for nearly a month, Xu Kang at this time was no longer as weak as he was when he had just crossed over.

At this time, as soon as he made a move, he danced the spear in his hand vigorously, which immediately attracted a burst of applause from the surrounding tun chiefs and squad leaders.

Even Zhang Cheng, the Marquis of Qu Jun, ran over happily after seeing Xu Kang's dancing gun, and said with admiration and flattery.

"Lord Jun Sima is good at martial arts, although this marksmanship seems to be disorganized, and there are flaws all over the body, but if you take a closer look, you find that this marksmanship has no trace, which makes people unable to deal with it, it can be said that it is impossible to prevent it, dare to ask your lord This is marksmanship?"

"Hehe, Zhang Junhou really has good eyesight!"

After hearing Zhang Cheng's praise, Xu Kang immediately put away his gun and stood up, and then opened his mouth to him with a smile.

"This marksmanship is created by a marksmanship master called Xia Ji, there are a total of eight moves, which are piercing, stabbing, winding, blocking, pounce, pointing, dialing, after practice, it can tear off the man's balls, so it is called Xia Ji's eight egg marksmanship!"

"Hiss......" Hearing Xu Kang's words, Zhang Cheng suddenly gasped in surprise, "There is such a terrible marksmanship in the world?" Why haven't I heard of it before? ”

"Because it's my!"

Xu Kang said as he glanced at him expressionlessly.

"You rabbit cub has time to come and flatter me, why don't you go back to eat and rest, if you drop the chain for me when you play yellow scarves at night, be careful that Lao Tzu will tear off your eggs for you!"

After speaking, he took the spear in his hand back to his big tent, leaving a group of tun chiefs, squad leaders, and Zhang Cheng who covered their mouths and snickered, and Zhang Cheng who looked dumbfounded.

Didn't Lao Tzu just want to make a sycophant? Why did you still shoot a scolding?

At this moment, Zhang Cheng felt very aggrieved in his heart, and immediately roared at the tun chiefs and squad leaders who were watching the excitement around him.

"What do you see? If you have this time to see me, why don't you go back to eat and rest quickly, if you drop the chain for me when you hit the yellow scarf at night, be careful that Lao Tzu will tear off your eggs, get out! ”

“……”

……

After such a small episode, the tension before the war was diluted a lot, and many soldiers couldn't help but smile a little when they talked about it.

As the so-called "will be the courage of the soldiers", with a general like Xu Kang who is not chaotic in the face of danger, the soldiers are also a lot more relieved, and they have a little more confidence in the battle at night.

Even the generals are not worried, so what are they soldiers to fear?

The soldiers didn't know that Xu Kang was not as relaxed as they thought.

After returning to the military tent, he began to think about possible changes in the battle situation and how to deal with it, while eating magic bread and replenishing the physical strength consumed by the spear dance just now.

Night soon fell, and Xu Kang, who was meditating in the military tent, did not feel the passage of time at all, until Zhang Cheng's voice sounded outside the tent.

"My lord, Zhao Junhou asks to see you!"

"Zhao Hong is back?" Hearing this, Xu Kang instantly came back to his senses, "Let him come in immediately...... Forget it, you both come in! ”

"Yes!"

After getting permission, Zhang Cheng and Zhao Hong walked into the military tent.

As soon as the two of them walked into the military tent, Xu Kang saw the blood stains on Zhao Hong's armor, and his face suddenly changed.

"What's going on? Zhao Hong: Did you fight the Yellow Turban Thief? Are there any injuries? ”

As he spoke, he was about to throw healing techniques at Zhao Hong's body, but before he could make a move, Zhao Hong knelt down with a "poof".

"My lord, the last general has failed to live up to the trust of the lord, and failed to ask Chen to stay for reinforcements, and the last general even ...... I didn't even see Chen Liutaishou! ”

After saying that, he immediately slammed his head on the ground, and then couldn't cry.

Seeing this scene, Xu Kang suddenly closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and then stepped forward to help him up.

"Get up, the man has gold under his knees, kneel to the sky and kneel to his parents, it's not your fault that you can't invite Chen Liu's reinforcements, and it's none of your business to see Chen Liu's Taishou, at this time I have my own plans, you don't need to worry...... By the way, Zhang Cheng, what time is it? ”

"Back to my lord, it's already three o'clock in the morning!" Zhang Cheng replied.

"Well, it's almost time to send troops!"

Hearing his answer, Xu Kang nodded suddenly, and then looked at Zhao Hong and Zhang Cheng again.

"Zhao Hong, you take 500 people to wait on the left side of the Yellow Turban Camp, Zhang Cheng, you take 500 people to wait on the right side of the Yellow Turban Camp, see the fire in the camp, immediately lead people to attack, see the flag and cut the flag, see the tent and burn the tent, try to create chaos, wait for the Yellow Turban to blow up the camp, and then break through from the north gate, no one is allowed to fight, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!"

"No!"
