Chapter Eighty-Seven: Burning Grain

"Report! General Qiyu, reconnaissance found that Lu Bu had retreated ten miles and was resting! ”

"What!" Pound was furious, he endured the invasion of the cold wind here, and he actually ran back to rest!

When the soldiers heard that Lu Bu and the wolf rider had withdrawn to rest, they all shouted, some asked us to go back to rest, some people clamored to continue to wait, and some even asked to take the initiative to attack and defeat Lu Bu.

Pang De's head suddenly became big, his mustache kept shaking, his face was gloomy, and he thought in his heart, Lu Bu retreated ten miles, which showed that he did not give up his plan to attack him, he must have seen through his ambush, retreated first, and waited for a suitable time to come over.

If he withdraws now, Lu Bu will definitely kill him, but if he doesn't withdraw, Lu Bu will also kill him, he is just waiting for his soldiers to be tired, if I kill him, it will be in his arms.

Pound was entangled, he didn't know what to do, and he was already dissatisfied when he saw the soldiers yawning everywhere.

"Order all the scouts to strictly investigate Lu Bu's movements, and as long as he has any abnormal movements, report it immediately!"

"There are also soldiers resting on the spot in case of accidents!"

Pound pondered.

"General, the big camp is right in front of you, if you let the soldiers rest on the spot and don't enter the big camp, everyone will be dissatisfied!" The adjutant general looked around at the tired soldier and said.

"There are many traps in the camp, if you return to the camp now, you must fill the trap, that Lu Bu must be monitoring us now, if we return to the camp, he will definitely kill him, I have to guard against it, rest on the spot for the time being, wait until dawn, we will go back to the camp, then Lu Bu will kill again, we will use the crossbow to block him!

During the day, the vision is open, and the crossbow can exert its maximum power, and I don't think Lu Bu will make a senseless sacrifice with his cavalry! Pound frowned.

"It's just this cold winter, let the soldiers rest on the spot, they can't sleep!" Said the adjutant general.

The soldiers under the four were shivering from the cold, their faces were blue, how could they fall to sleep in such a cold weather.

"Isn't that Lu Bu also resting on the spot! His soldiers can sleep, but why can't my soldiers! Pound dissatisfied.

The adjutant general said: "General, they got cotton blankets from nowhere, and they are all sleeping wrapped in cotton blankets!" ”

"Damn, find a few people to go to the camp, be careful of those traps, come out with some cotton blankets, and let the soldiers sleep wrapped in them!" Pound Road.

"No!" The lieutenant will hold his fist.

······

On the other side, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Li Su, and Guo Yan frowned thinking about the information sent back by the scout.

Zhang Fei held a jar of spirits, drank a few sips from time to time, and used the spirits to expel the cold current.

"The two generals, Su dared to assert that Lu Bu would definitely attack Pang De's camp, but he turned back when he arrived at Pang De's camp, presumably that Pang De had already taken precautions, and Lu Bu was worried that the casualties would be too large, so he retreated ten miles.

Su believed that Lu Bu must be waiting for Pang De's soldiers to become tired before leading the army to kill.

So, let's rest now, there is a way, the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, we will wait! ”

Li Su said slowly.

"It makes sense, according to what General Li said!" Guan Yu's face changed and said.

······

"Big brother, why didn't you attack Pound?" Hou Cheng and Cao Xing got the news and hurriedly came.

Lu Bu leaned against a small hillside sheltered from the wind and said, "Pang De's gang has already prepared, if I kill him, the brothers will definitely suffer heavy casualties, so I will withdraw first and let Pang De stay there first and drink the northwest wind!" ”

Hou Cheng and Cao Xing suddenly realized.

"I'm thinking now that it's too boring for Pound to stay there, so I decided to divide the cavalry into four groups and take turns to go around outside Pound's camp, so that he can do everything all night!"

Lu Bu said with a smile.

"Great idea!" Hou Cheng and Cao Xing clapped their hands again and again.

"Let's go!"

Soon, the first cavalry was ready, and galloped towards the Pound camp, and when they approached the Pound camp, they let out strange screams.

"Not good! Lu Bu really came back! ”

Pound, who had just squinted, woke up and shouted.

The sleepy soldiers who were lying in ambush on both sides also bracked their bodies, grabbed the weapons around them, and looked towards the camp.

"The crossbowmen are ready, when Lu Bu enters the range, shoot it for me!" Pound said excitedly.

Before he finished speaking, Pound realized that something was wrong, the number of this cavalry seemed to be wrong, only two hundred horsemen.

The two hundred wolves rode like a whirlwind to the outside of Pound's camp, and suddenly stopped, and howled.

"General, they are in range outside of our range, and there is no way to shoot." The adjutant general said indignantly.

"I know the way!" Pound clenched his fists.

Pound's 5,000 soldiers all brisked up and prepared for a big encirclement and suppression, but found that the two hundred wolf horsemen were just barking outside the camp, and did not go deep at all.

"It's not attacking the camp, it's teasing me!" Pound understood that Lu Bu was entertaining him.

The two hundred wolf riders felt almost noisy, and withdrew like a whirlwind.

"Damn, what are they doing! Play us! ”

"It's infuriating! X! I was already asleep, and I was dreaming when I was woken up! ”

"How can you sleep on such a cold day! No, I'm going back to the camp to sleep! ”

Pound's 5,000 soldiers suddenly made a noise.

"Whoever is arguing, who I killed! Lay down on the ground for me to sleep! Pound roared.

As soon as these words came out, all the 5,000 soldiers lay down obediently, and they didn't even dare to come out.

"Abominable Lu Bu, one day, I will destroy you!" Pound said angrily, and fire was about to erupt in his eyes.

Holding his breath, Pang De lay down again, fantasizing in his heart about dismantling Lu Bu into eight pieces.

Within half an hour, the second group of wolves arrived.

At this time, Pound and his 5,000 soldiers were already drowsy, and some of them had already fallen asleep.

"Damn, Lu Bu is here!" Pound, whose nerves had been tense, straightened up with a carp, and lay down on the dirt slope to look into the distance.

The five thousand soldiers cheered up again, and the crossbowmen were dazed and prepared their bows and arrows, and when Pound gave the order, they released their arrows and shots.

The two hundred wolf horsemen still did not approach Pound's camp, and they stood in the distance, scolding Pound.

Pound was smoky by the seven orifices scolded by these wolf riders, and he wanted to kill them immediately and cut these cavalrymen alive.

"Pound Xiao'er, my lord has already seen through your tricks, and you won't be arrested before you come out!"

"Pound is dead! Pound suffers! ”

"General, I can't stand it anymore, let's kill them and destroy these cavalry!" The adjutant couldn't listen anymore.

"If you don't mess with it, you will make a big plan! If they want to scold, let them scold! Pound's face was gloomy.

Pang De said in his heart, Lu Bu kept sending people to harass him, the purpose was to hit the morale of the soldiers, so that the soldiers could not rest, and when the soldiers were exhausted, they suddenly killed, this plan was really vicious.

Now Pound has a feeling of powerlessness, and he finds that he can't play Lu Bu at all.

"If you can't keep it, burn it!" A fierce glint crossed Pound's eyes.

It would be good if this batch of baggage was obtained by Ma Han's army, but if it couldn't be kept and was snatched back by Lu Bu, then after the beginning of spring, it would not be so easy for Ma Han to conquer Longxi.

If you can't keep it, then destroy it! In short, you can't let Lu Bu get it!

Pound thought secretly.

The second group of wolf riders cursed for a while, and then retreated.

Pound's soldiers were teased twice by the wolf rider, and they were all angry, and after scolding the wolf rider in a whisper, they lay down again, and made trouble twice, and the soldiers were all so sleepy that they were about to fall asleep with their eyes closed.

Pound didn't feel sleepy, he sat on the ground, looking at the night, he knew that there was a first dial, a second dial, and there must be a third dial.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the third group of wolves to ride.

The soldiers were no longer surprised, and paid no attention to the howling of the wolf riders, only some of them stood up, and the crossbowmen put their sharp arrows on the strings indiscriminately, drooping their heads, and looked listless.

Pang De scolded secretly, then sighed, and said to the deputy general: "Let the brothers prepare to burn grain, we can't get it, and he Lu Bu can't think of it!" ”

"General, what a pity that so much grain and grass is burned!" The adjutant general said in surprise.

"If you can't keep it, what's the use, if you let Lu Bu take back this batch of grain and grass, the consequences will be unimaginable!" Pound said angrily.

"Yes!" The adjutant general didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly went down to prepare.

For the general, when it is broken, it will be broken!

Pound thought secretly.

"When the fire starts, Lu Bu will definitely pounce like a madman, let the brothers all cheer up, as long as Lu Bu comes, give me arrows, doesn't he want to play with me, I'll play with him!"

Pound said grimly.

After the third group of wolf riders withdrew, it was already two watches.

Lu Bu leaned on the dirt slope, suddenly felt a little irritable in his heart, looked at the sky, and thought that after the fourth group of wolves rode to harass him, he would kill him, defeat Pang De in one fell swoop, and regain the grain and grass.

"Not good, lord, Pound's camp is in flames, I don't know what happened?"

"Blazing?"

Lu Bu was startled, quickly stood up, walked up the dirt slope, and looked at Pound's camp, and sure enough, Pound's camp was so bright that it almost set the whole night on fire.

"Fire, fire, fire, Pound is burning grain!"

Lu Bu was shocked.

"This Pound, I actually underestimated him, he knew that he couldn't keep the grain and grass, so he simply burned it, he couldn't keep it, and he didn't let me get it, sure enough, ruthless!"

Lu Bu gritted his teeth and speculated.

"Lord, what should we do!" The soldiers who woke up left and right asked.

"Kill the past, as much grain and grass as you can save, you can save as much grain and grass as you want, and order someone to notify Hou Cheng and Cao Xing, and let them bring people over!"

"No!"

Lu Bu was anxious, hurriedly stepped on the horse, grabbed Fang Tian's halberd, and ran towards Pang De's camp, if there was no such baggage, it would be empty talk to integrate the remnants of Dong Zhuo in Longxi and the Bingzhou army that fed more than 10,000 people.
