Chapter 59: The Loss of Humanity
"Rumble rumble" war drums sounded, the north and south sent troops to fight again, the two camps did not say anything, they met to do it, this time the south in order to prevent Lu Bu, sent four generals to drag him, but although Lu Bu was dragged down, there was also a second brother of Liu Bei in the north, Zhang Fei, who showed his skills there, and led the northern army all the way to kill the enemy bravely and unstoppable, which made the south very helpless.
After fighting for a long time, the south still suffered, which made the princes of the south begin to be anxious, and many people have even begun to retreat.
"General Sun! You've got to figure it out! Sooner or later, we're going to lose! It was Liu Biao who spoke, and he was in a hurry!
Sun Ce was silent after listening to Liu Biao's words, and he looked at Zhou Yu next to him.
Zhou Yu saw Sun Ce's gaze and thought for a while and said: "The northern princes are strong, we can't fight hard, Yu has a plan, I don't know if you agree or not." ”
"Tell me what a clever plan?" Sun Ce hurriedly asked.
"We burned the grain and grass of the Northern Army, and their 300,000 people will definitely fight to the death with us without food and grass, of course, we will never fight with them, as long as we keep retreating to contain them and consume them to death, once they can't catch up with us, they will go back, and then we will be able to enter Luoyang!" Zhou Yu said confidently.
"Good! Jiangdong is not a loss of talents! What a plan! Liu Biao listened to it and praised it again and again.
With a plan, the southern side began to act, this time Huang Zhong and Han Dang led 10,000 rocketeers to quietly sneak behind the Northern Army, and they had already determined the location of the Northern Army's food and grass, and everything was waiting for the night action.
At night, Huang Zhong and Han Dang set off with 10,000 rocketeers, and after Huang Zhong and Han Dang set off, the south also began to pull out the camp and prepare to retreat.
In the northern tent, everyone was drinking celebratory wine, and the happiest of them were Ding Yuan and Liu Bei, their right-hand men Lu Bu Zhang Fei showed their might on the battlefield, and the southern army that killed them was terrified.
"Brother Xuande, I salute you!" Tao Qian raised his glass to salute Liu Bei, and Liu Bei smiled and drank a glass of sweet wine.
"Everyone! I think in just a few days we will be able to defeat those guys in the south who are not capable of themselves, with my son Fengxian and General Yide here, we will enter Luoyang just around the corner! Come! Cheers, everybody! Ding Yuan picked up the wine glass in his hand and stood up to do it first, and the others drank the wine in their hands when they saw that Ding Yuan had done it.
In the middle of the night, the princes were drunk and carried back to their respective camps, and at this time, 50 meters from the grain and grass hoarding site of the rear camp of the Northern Army, 10,000 rocketeers had already pulled out the arrows, and the arrows loaded with fuel were almost on fire.
A refreshing night breeze blew, and when the time came, Huang Zhonghan first lit the rocket and shot it towards the granary of the Northern Army, and then 10,000 rockets roared into the granary of the Northern Army, and for a while the sky was red by the fire, and then 10,000 rockets fell into the granary of the Northern Army and ignited a fire, and at this time, the Northern Army saw that the granary was on fire, and it was chaotic, and in the chaos, several waves of rockets were fired into the granary.
"Oh no! The grain and grass are attacked and on fire, so put out the fire! Someone in the chaotic northern army finally began to shout for firefighting, and his shout woke up the blinded northern army, and began to fetch water and put out the fire one by one. The chaos outside woke the princes, and when they saw that the lifeblood of the army was on fire, they shook and shook their drunken minds and hurried to stop the firefighting.
Huang Zhonghan quietly withdrew after shooting a few more waves of rockets, and the Northern Army was busy fighting fires, but in ancient times when there was only a bucket of water and a bucket of water to pour fire, the efficiency of extinguishing the fire was not high, the fire in the granary was getting bigger and bigger, and most of the water poured into it was directly evaporated, but Grandpa Mao's famous words are not to be underestimated, with the concerted efforts of hundreds of thousands of people, they were busy until the morning, the fire was extinguished, but the grain and grass were basically burned.
The princes of the Northern Army were very angry at the sudden attack of the Southern Army to burn grain and grass, and they unanimously agreed that they must kill the Southern Army today without leaving a single piece of armor.
The Northern Army left the camp with anger and rushed straight to the Southern Army, but when they arrived at the Southern Army camp, there were still half a person, leaving a few stakes and a few rotten tents, and the Southern Army had already withdrawn.
"Damn! These brutes burned our grain and grass and ran away! Tao Qian shouted there.
Liu Bei listened to his words, then dismounted and looked at the ground and said, "They just left not long ago, let's chase it!" ”
Ding Yuan looked at the remnants of the ground and thought for a while, "Chase!" Destroy these guys! ”
"Good! Pursue! Liu Bei also responded positively to Ding Yuan.
With Ding Yuan and Liu Bei taking the lead, the others agreed to chase after them, and they didn't go to pack up the camp or anything, so the Northern Army chased after them with people.
After chasing for a day, the northern army was exhausted and had not eaten for a day, they rested in a forest and prepared to spend the night, not far away, Zhou Yu was watching them with the four generals of Jiangdong and 50,000 people.
"Rest well, everybody, and we'll attack them at midnight when they're at their most tired!" Zhou Yu said.
The soldiers listened to him, and those who stayed behind fell asleep.
At night, the northern army was hungry and bulging, and many of them cooked leaf bark soup and wild vegetable soup they found, and they were lucky enough to catch game, but those who caught game became the object of everyone's attention, and this dispute began.
"Make soup out of the rabbit you hit! Let's eat a little too! Dozens of soldiers drinking bark soup pleaded with a soldier who had hit a rabbit.
"Make soup for you? Why? I'm going to bake it! The soldier skinned the rabbit and said disappreciatively.
When the soldiers who pleaded with him heard this, their faces immediately darkened, and one by one they clenched their fists and threw themselves at the soldier.
"What are you doing!" The soldier with the rabbit was not to be outdone when he saw that they were coming to rob them, and fought with them, but he was defeated by one punch, and the rabbit was quickly robbed.
"Fuck you! Lao Tzu killed you! The soldier who had robbed the rabbit took the knife next to him and slashed at the man who had robbed him.
I heard a scream, the soldier had one of his hands cut off, the rabbit fell to the ground, and the people next to him also picked up a knife and cut down the soldier who wounded first. After the soldier was hacked to death, the rabbit was snatched by several men, and the others did something dehumanizing by dismembering the body of the soldier who had been hacked to death, and the man whose hand had been cut off was also cut down by the others and boiled by the others. Their behavior was soon imitated, and all the wounded soldiers were dismembered and thrown into the pot to cook soup, and for a time the entire northern military camp became a slaughterhouse and a place of loss of humanity, as long as there were some wounded people were boiled, and some even got together to kill those who were left alone, and cooked and eaten.
The soldiers of the Northern Army frantically took people to cook soup, and their superiors were eating the game that the soldiers caught without asking, and they learned about the cannibalism, they thought so, the wounded people were a burden, killing them, eating them could not only reduce the burden, but also allow the soldiers to have something to eat.
The madness of the Northern Army made Zhou Yu and them not far away tremble, this was simply degenerated into a beast, without any humanity at all.
"Tonight! Gotta kill these guys! Zhou Yu couldn't bear to look at the scene of eating human flesh, especially when their killers were divided and cooked, which made Zhou Yu extremely angry.
At night, the northern army ate human flesh and ate enough, and they all slept against the trees, and on Zhou Yu's side, everyone's weapons were already sweating, and they couldn't help but slaughter these beast-like things.
In the middle of the night, Zhou Yu sent Han Dang Zhou Tai to quietly kill the patrol, and then they could do it.
Han Dang Zhou Tai took a dozen people and quietly killed one patrol after another, and they came back after a while.
"Don't shout! Slowly get up and kill them first by surprise, and if they find out, retreat quickly! Zhou Yu whispered.
After 50,000 people passed it to each other, they followed Zhou Yu and Jiangdong Si General to slowly touch it.
Quietly touched the mouth of the enemy in the northern army and then killed with a knife, and after quietly killing 60,000 people in the northern army, someone got up.
"What are you doing?" The sleeping dazed soldier of the Northern Army asked a soldier of the Southern Army who was about to kill someone.
"Kill!" The Southern soldier stabbed the Northern soldier to death, who had just woken up.
"Ahh The soldier screamed and all the soldiers of the Northern Army got up.
"Retreat!" Zhou Yu gave an order, and before the Northern Army was fully awake, he led people to run away, but there were still quick reactions in the Northern Army.
"The Southern Army is coming!" The quick-reacting soldier shouted and everyone came to their senses, and they all picked up their weapons and prepared for battle, but when they picked up their weapons and prepared for battle, the Southern Army left hundreds of their backs and disappeared into the darkness.
The loss of 60,000 men made the leaders of the Northern Army very angry, and at the same time they foolishly decided to chase the Southern Army to the death, anyway, now 60,000 dead have food to eat.
Just when the north and south were playing a chase battle, a person took the opportunity to enter Luoyang, and he was ............
