Chapter 73: The Most Poisonous Trick Is Cutting Food (New Books, Various Requests ~~~)

Grain!

It is definitely the most important material that no one can live without, even to stabilize the fundamental order of the country. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Even if you are the first emperor of the ages, Qin Shi Huang, the heavenly khan, Tang Taizong, Wolong Zhuge Kongming, etc., if there is no food, you will face the man-made rebellion underneath, and one of the key reasons for the rise of the Yellow Turban Army is that it is now in the stage of frequent natural disasters for several consecutive years, and the civilians in most areas are in a situation where they can't survive and can't live happily.

In other words, if the harvest of the low-level civilians is very good, and everyone can fill their stomachs, even if the ideals of the great sage and mentor Zhang Jiao are touching, it is a big question whether so many people will join the Yellow Turban Army!

In the same way, the Yellow Turban Army is also a human being, of course, tens of thousands of people cannot drink water and bask in the sun to fill their stomachs, even if the Yellow Turban Army in this county successfully besieged the county seat of Donglai County, but the grain and grass needed are obviously impossible to spend money to buy and farm land, but the Yellow Turban Army plundered the grain of many villages and towns along the way, and then supported tens of thousands of Yellow Turban Army to directly besiege the county town.

Wang Chen led hundreds of people to launch a surprise attack at night, and the goal that needed to be achieved was not at all the super difficult thing of defeating tens of thousands of Yellow Turban Army in World War I, but directly pointed to the root of the Yellow Turban Army's lifeline - the food hoarded in the camp!

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

In fact, not only Wang Chen understood the importance of grain, but also Bian Xi, the commander of the Yellow Turban Army, knew the importance of grain and grass.

In the entire camp, most of the grain and grass looted by the Yellow Turban Army all the way were hoarded in the camp of Commander Bian Xi, and the grain hoarding was still close to the location of the headquarters of the Yellow Turban Army, and a general appointed by Bian Xi personally sat in it, and also took ten Yellow Turban wrestlers and five hundred Yellow Turban Army to guard, normally speaking, it was already a strong defensive strength, Bian Xi thought that even if it was a surprise attack by the enemy, it should be able to support his handsome army to rescue.

It's a pity that Bian Xi definitely overestimated the combat effectiveness of the Yellow Turban Army, and also underestimated the speed of those cavalry charging under the leadership of Wang Chen and Tai Shici.

When Wang Chen led the team to rush to the vicinity of the granary, the Yellow Turban Army was still in the whole formation, and there was no reaction at all!

"Shoot !!"

Seeing the defensive measures such as the trench and fence outside the granary, Wang Chen waved his hand and ordered directly.

The cavalrymen, who had already prepared special arrows, directly lit the torches in their hands with flints, and lit the arrows wrapped in oil-soaked linen, and did not shoot accurately at all, but quickly covered those granaries, and one after another arrows with fire pierced the night sky and began to set those grain hoards on fire.

Originally, the Yellow Turban Army stationed in the granary was still preparing to defend against the enemy's attack, but when they saw that the enemy who rushed to the camp had no intention of stepping forward at all, they rode their horses and detoured to ignite the grain hoard with rockets, and everyone was dumbfounded!

What to do if the enemy does not attack, but sets fire to the grain hoards and burns them?

Do you want to watch the enemy set fire to the grain? That's definitely not going to work!

The general who received Bian Xi's order to protect the granary, his first reaction was to quickly put out the fire to prevent those precious grains from being burned by the fire!

The problem is that Wang Chen has been prepared for a long time, there are not many rockets on each cavalry, but there are many torches.

With the help of horsepower, the cavalry can easily put the torch that is not too heavy on one side with the center of gravity, and it is easy to throw dozens of meters or even a hundred meters, and the granary of the Yellow Turban Army is certainly not very large (relatively speaking), but now most people are trying to block the cavalry in front of the fence, how many people can be pumped out to fight the fire?

As a result, before the Yellow Turban general sent someone to put out the fire, hundreds of torches directly lit the granary completely, and looking at the scene of throwing torches and shooting by sharpshooters from time to time, I knew that firefighting could not solve the problem!

"Protector Warrior rush with me! They must be stopped from setting fires!!"

Seeing that the grain hoards were burned one by one, the Yellow Turban General commanding the Yellow Turban Army was so anxious that his eyes were red, and he looked at the enemy troops outside who were only a hundred horses, and roared angrily with the long-handled broadsword in his hand.

The Yellow Turban Warrior, who also knew the importance of food, did not hesitate to shout and follow the Yellow Turban General to charge!

"Ziyi, kill that general and those Yellow Turban Warriors!"

Seeing the Yellow Turban General wearing iron armor, as well as ten Yellow Turban wrestlers who looked like fierce little giants and a group of Yellow Turban Army rushing out of the grain hoard, Wang Chen, who was paying attention to the movements around him, looked at them and said coldly to Tai Shici beside him.

"Yes! My lord!"

Hearing Wang Chen's order, Tai Shici's face froze, and then he said in a low voice.

A Yellow Turban Army general and ten Yellow Turban Warriors, Tai Shici definitely can't be underestimated, even if there are nearly a hundred cavalry around him, but the other party also has hundreds of Yellow Turban Army support!

However, Tai Shici also has his own arrogance, and when he agreed, he directly raised the longbow in his hand and pulled it away.

A longbow that was obviously some years old was pulled out in Tai Shi Ci's hands at once, and then several delicate carved arrows were shot out by Tai Shi Ci in a series of shots almost in a breath, and the arrows seemed to turn into a dull black streamer, and directly brought a few yellow turban wrestlers who rushed to the front to have a close contact!

"Bang Bang - Poofโ€•โ€•โ€•โ€•โ€•โ€•"

"Ah!!h

The Yellow Turban wrestler who had just rushed out with the Yellow Turban military general, the first two were directly hit by arrows in the eye sockets, and then fell down without saying a word, and the next Yellow Turban wrestler barely tilted his head, but dodged an arrow at the cost of being blinded in one eye, but was nailed through the heart by the last arrow!

Seeing that the three Yellow Turban wrestlers were killed almost instantly, even the Yellow Turban General slowed down slightly, and when he saw that Wang Chen had already led people straight over, his steps to stop suddenly accelerated.

"The dog officer gave me death, ahhh!!h

The armor on Wang Chen's body, and the appearance of giving orders just now, were undoubtedly the best understanding of the Yellow Turban General, and the whole person rushed up with red eyes, and a long-handled machete in his hand was cut down with a whistling wind.

Just looking at the strength and speed of that Yellow Turban General, he is slightly beyond the first line compared to the Yellow Turban Force!

"Death? You're the one who is going to die!"

Looking at the Yellow Turban General's sharp sword, Wang Chen sneered and then suddenly waved the horse lance in his hand.

Although it is said that this time he replaced "Wang Chen", the powerful head of the family, Wang Chen faced many inconveniences and unaccustomedness, but thanks to the martial atmosphere of the Han Dynasty, Wang Chen obtained several temporary skills such as riding [F], bow and arrow [F-], not to mention that Wang Chen's practice and actual combat these days have obtained the skills of the long-handled cold weapon [F+] level!

With Wang Chen's current high attributes, the horse lance that found the blue equipment from the big family in the county town came first, and directly stabbed him in the chest before the Yellow Turban General's big knife was swung out!

"Puff !!"

The long blade and the eight-sided armor-piercing diamond-shaped horse lance almost immediately pierced through the iron armor of the Yellow Turban general, and Sen Han's lance pierced through its back until it was stopped by the Qingliu section on the horse lance.

When the horse lance in Wang Chen's hand pierced his chest, the long-handled broadsword in the hand of the Yellow Turban military general was already powerless to swing out, and the whole person was even picked up by the horse lance at once, and when he flew out, the whole person had no breath, and he didn't even give full play to his own strength, so he became an outlaw under Wang Chen's horse lance!

When he landed, the eyes of the Yellow Turban Military Department were wide open, with a dead expression!

"Hahh!!"

Wang Chen ignored the guy who hung the point, and the horse lance in his hand took advantage of the situation to pull out, aiming at the several yellow turban wrestlers who rushed up and swept away.

Even if the leading Yellow Turban military general was killed in battle, the remnants of the Yellow Turban wrestlers did not flinch at all, and roared angrily and surrounded them with weapons such as heavy hammers, long knives, giant axes, and maces, trying to surround Wang Chen, the enemy general!

For this kind of siege, Wang Chen pulled the reins in his hand slightly, and when he took advantage of the situation to ride a horse and charge again, the horse lance in his hand penetrated a Yellow Turban wrestler at the front, which was originally a horse lance that could only be used by a family of military generals, and was extremely sharp by Wang Chen, who slashed the armor and half of the body of the Yellow Turban wrestler with a sharp wave, and the horse lance that was drawn out of the situation also directly cut the handle and arm of a giant axe and axe blocking the road, and then brought up a hideous head.

"Kill !!"

Wang Chen took advantage of the situation to kill two Yellow Turban wrestlers in a row, but did not stop the charge of those Yellow Turban wrestlers in the slightest, and a Yellow Turban wrestler with a mace did not waste the opportunity brought by the death of his companion, and swung directly at Wang Chen's war horse with a single stick.

Shoot the man before the horse!

The Yellow Turban Lux who made this threat, but did not succeed!

Almost as soon as the mace was swung out, just when it was about to hit the target, the horse lance that was drawn back smashed the mace, and in the dazzling sparks and the roar of the blacksmith's hard forging, the much lighter horse lance only bent the handle slightly, and then returned to a straight state, but the yellow turban wrestler could not withstand the huge force and took several steps back.

Immediately, the horse lance that pierced out was like lightning, and with a snort, it pierced through the head of the yellow turban wrestler, and when it was pulled out again, the lance even brought out a white mixed red, inexplicable thing similar to a tofu brain!

"Ahh

"Someone ?!! a dark arrow"

The remaining Yellow Turban wrestlers didn't wait to come forward to besiege, and Tai Shici, who had breathed a sigh of relief, drew his longbow again.

The Yellow Turban Warrior, who had already died for the most part, was not even able to cause any damage to Wang Chen, who was charging forward, except for a Yellow Turban Warrior who smashed the giant axe in his hand before he died, cutting a cavalryman who could not dodge in half, and did not pose any threat to Wang Chen and Tai Shici at all.

Looking at the dead generals and the ten Yellow Turban wreaths, the Yellow Turban Army that had just rushed out was a little confused, and they didn't dare to blindly chase them out anymore except for occasionally causing some trouble with bows and arrows!

"Hey! The grain and grass are almost burned! Let's go !!."

Seeing this situation, as well as the Yellow Turban Army's main formation, which had already begun to move, Wang Chen looked up at the grain hoard that had been completely burned, and ordered to evacuate without hesitation.
