Chapter 138: Burning Grain and Grass
The autumn is high and cool, the night of the desert is already cold and cold, the wind blows, making a sound like a wolf roaring, the heaven and the earth meet, like a roaring beast's mouth, to swallow all the people who come and go into the stomach.
Not far away, by the river, a large battalion of the army was stationed, which was especially bright in the dark and starless night.
Liao Luan was lying on the periphery of this big camp not far from this time at this time, looking up and down at this big camp for a long time, and then he directly attracted Maoshan beside him.
"Maoshan, I asked you to inquire into the grain and grass warehouse of Xifengguo, did you find anything? In what direction? ”
His voice was very low, and most of it was blown away by the whining wind, and Mao Shan got close enough to vaguely hear his words, and then replied, "Back to the prince, my subordinates already know the general location of the enemy's grain and grass storehouse, but the specific location is still not clear. ”
Liao Luan nodded, and didn't blame Feng Maoshan, it was really because the grain and grass warehouse was originally a secret of the military department, and the position of the hiding guard must be careful and careful, and what they were doing now was what they were going to do.
Once the grain and grass are destroyed, the two armies will naturally lose two-thirds of the battle, and they will have to surrender after holding out for long, which is also the reason why the third prince of Xifengguo called Prince Yu to block Chixiao Wei grain and grass.
There are not many people Liao Luan brought with him this time, and the only ones he knows are Maoshan, Jiang Yan, Guanlan, and Vice General Mo of the Zhuque Battalion.
Vice General Mo is cautious, and he is naturally more handy in doing this kind of thing, and Guanlan, as a secret guard, has been holding his breath since elementary school, and his hidden kung fu is first-class.
After arranging the division of labor among the people in the team, he took out the dagger first, quietly approached the barracks guard, and killed the man before he could shout with wide eyes.
He and Jiang Yan were responsible for opening the way.
He had already decided to arrange the arson to Guanlan, who acted quickly and quickly and quickly concealed himself, so he was definitely the best choice.
"Lord Wang, there is a patrol in the barracks in two minutes, and it can pass in these two minutes, and the grain and grass are in the southwest direction of the entire barracks, and there is also a fixed guard team, and I don't know when the guard will change."
"Since you don't know when, then just lure people away, Jiang Yan."
"The subordinates are here."
"You come with me, make a noise, and lure people away first, can you run?"
Hearing that Liao Luan was going to run with him, Jiang Yan was inexplicably a little excited in his heart, he nodded hurriedly, and followed Liao Luan and the two of them to get up directly and start making noise.
People were really attracted quickly, Liao Luan took Jiang Yan, and the two of them scurried around the outside of the barracks, and the entire Xifengguo camp became a pot of porridge.
At the same time, Guanlan, who was lurking on the side, quickly got up and hid himself, and soon arrived at the southwest corner of Maoshan.
Sure enough, there was a tent that was much larger than the others, and it was pitch black inside, and there were two guards standing at the door, looking very serious.
Guanlan suddenly felt that the three princes of Xifengguo were a little stupid.
In order to keep it hidden and not to be discovered by enemy spies, the grain and grass tents of the general military camp will be disguised as similar to the ordinary camp tents, but this camp tent is so exaggerated and placed here with a big grin, which makes everyone difficult, and wonders if the action was discovered in advance. He understands the truth of a secret guard, but the straw-bale third prince of Xi Fengguo doesn't understand.
He was still in a daze, but Liao Luan on the side suddenly appeared quietly, looked at Guanlan and asked with some doubts, "What are you in a daze, don't you do serious things quickly." ”
"Lord Wang...... This grain and straw tent looks at the ......, should we look for it again? ”
His voice was light and fluttering, Liao Luan waved his hand, and took the two of them to the back of the tent directly, cut it open, and it was indeed a grain and grass tent.
Guanlan was relieved at this time, and Liao Luan didn't say much, looking left and right to cover for Guanlan, and soon a faint smell of smoke came out.
The sky was full of firelight, and this hidden heaven and earth were illuminated.
The crowd shouted and shouted, all carrying buckets of water frantically carrying water from the river in an attempt to extinguish the flames that were already burning.
However, no amount of effort is a drop in the bucket, the sky is beautiful, the wind is whining, and soon the entire grain and grass tent is on fire.
At this time, Chu Zhongtian and the three princes of Xi Fengguo were all in Fu'an City, and the soldiers of Xi Fengguo who had no commander were all in chaos, and the whole army was panicked and chaotic.
This time the action of burning grain and grass became extremely smooth because there was no commander in Xifengguo.
Liao Luan and the others hid in the shadows, looking at the soldiers of Xi Fengguo who were splashing water with buckets without even putting on their clothes, and they all showed happy smiles.
"Let's go, Vice General Mo and Mao Shan are still waiting outside to pick us up."
Liao Luan said, seeing that Guanlan and Jiang Yan both nodded, the three of them turned around and hurriedly planned to leave the camp.
"There's someone over there, quick, catch the spies."
When Jiang Yan was about to leave the camp, he was suddenly discovered, and the soldiers of Xifengguo were not slow, and they quickly gathered and chased them out of the camp.
At this time, Mao Shan and Deputy General Mo were leading their horses and waiting for the three of them to come out, and when they saw the soldiers who were like ants behind the three of them, Mao Shan immediately called out in surprise, "Lord Wang".
Liao Luan is naturally fine, although there are many soldiers, but because they are all soldiers after all, the number of kung fu roads is not high, and trying to keep up with Liao Luan is like a pipe dream.
Soon the three of them arrived, and Liao Luan took the reins of the horse in Maoshan's hand and turned over on the horse, and said, "Run." ”
Then the whole person sped away.
The crowd was not inked, and they turned over on their horses one after another, and the horses galloped away, leaving only puffs of smoke and dust.
At this time, Chu Zhongtian, who received the news, was on his way to come.
Now that he has lost control of the entire army, as a general under others, especially his relationship with the third prince is really not good, the two did not deal with each other before, and now they are under the fence, and life is even more depressed.
Now I heard that even the camp where the grain and grass were put in the tun was served by Liao Luan, and he was even more stuck in his throat with a mouthful of old blood, unable to cough or swallow, and the whole person looked a lot older.
It was windy in the middle of the night, and he didn't have time to find his cloak, so he jumped on his horse and galloped towards the camp, but he happened to meet Liao Luan and his party on the way.
Jiang Yan felt that it was not good when he saw the person coming, and sure enough, in the next second, he found that the person who came was Chu Zhongtian, and the whole person had an expression as if he had been struck by thunder, ", why are you so unlucky." ”
Normally, no one paid attention to his meaningless words in the barracks, but today it was different, because of Guanlan's presence, the entire camp became a lot more noisy.
"I'll go, that is, how can it be so inch."
"Lord Wang, what should we do next?"
Chu Zhongtian was already getting close, it was too late to avoid him, and now there were wolves and tigers in front of him, Rao was always experienced, and Feng Maoshan, who used tactics to kill the enemy, was also a little shocked and panicked at this time.
"Disperse, there is an ancient village ruins in front, I'll go bypass the pursuers, you guys run quickly, and meet in Anxing Town."
Hearing Liao Luan's words, Vice General Mo immediately frowned, and refused as soon as he opened his mouth, "No, Lord Wang, with so many chasing soldiers, it is too dangerous for you to lead away alone." ”
"I don't have time to think about it so much, let's go."
As he spoke, the whole person took the lead in leaving the original place of the front and back attacks, thinking about the left.
As soon as Liao Luan appeared, he naturally became the target of the enemy's pursuit, so in fact, it was very suitable for him to lead the team, and everyone looked deeply at Liao Luan's back and disappeared into the night, and did not dare to delay time, driving the horses in the opposite direction.
The only one who didn't listen to Liao Luan's words was naturally Guanlan.
Guanlan has always been active, and he is not serving in the army, so he doesn't have so many stinky problems with orders, so he secretly followed behind Liao Luan and Chu Zhongtian, who was chasing him, and set off in an unknown direction.
The West is the ruins of the village that Liao Luan said.
All the people in the village have moved to the city, after all, the climate and environment here are not good, and there are a lot of guarantees for life and life in the city, which is naturally sought after by many people.
Seeing the ruins from afar, before the horse stopped, Liao Luan flew directly and jumped off the horse, and as soon as he whistled, Xiao Hei immediately ran straight to the place and went towards the darkness.
Guanlan, who was lying in the shadows, had naturally seen all this, he quietly flew and followed Liao Luan directly into the earthen house in the ruins, and as soon as he entered the door, a fierce palm wind came to him, he subconsciously dodged sideways, and said urgently, "Lord Wang, it's me, Guanlan." ”
Liao Luan is cautious and careful, and someone chasing him behind him naturally can't escape his eyes, but he didn't expect that the person who came turned out to be Guanlan.
"Didn't I tell you to go back to Anxing Town first, what are you doing here?"
"My subordinates are afraid that you can't solve the ...... alone"
He muttered and spoke, Liao Luan was even more angry when he heard this, and slapped Guanlan on the shoulder with a wave of his big hand, and his mouth was even more ruthless.
"With your little bit of three-legged cat kung fu, I don't have a chance of winning with anyone in my arms, how powerful can the two of us be."
Although Liao Luan's words were hurting him, Guanlan suddenly didn't know what to refute.
He only looked at Liao Luan for a short while, and finally cheekily rubbed it up and said, "What are you afraid of, anyway, it's just a loss of my life, it's okay lord, my ......"
"Shh Before he finished speaking, Liao Luan suddenly stretched out his big bony hand and directly covered his mouth, frowning and listening to the sound outside.
It was a burst of wheezing, mixed with the sound of sparse footsteps.
The village has been in place for a long time, and the door shaft is very difficult to use, and when it is opened, it makes a dull creaking sound.
