Chapter Ninety-Seven: Weakness and Weakness (6)
Sun Quan's soldiers did not react for a while, when they saw the soldiers outside the city, began to retreat in an orderly manner, after a period of silence, they broke out into earth-shattering cheers, celebrating their success in defending the city, when they were immersed in the joy of "victory", suddenly a soldier saw the black smoke rising from the city.
"Look at the fire in the granary of the city. β
"Hurry up, pull up the alarm, hurry up and put out the fire. β
The defenders of Chaisang City panicked instantly, not because of anything else, they were simply busy fighting the fire, and at this moment the city was in chaos, and the Taishou who defended the city only sent a letter to Sun Quan in a panic, and then was busy fighting the fire.
"After the ministers and the defenders, fighting hard, killed the attacking Shanyue thieves, because there was no light enemy to fight, so the defenders in the city only suffered a little minor injury, this battle my defenders are heroic, all of them regard death as home, in order to repel the enemy's attack. β
After Chai Sang Taishou finished writing this excerpt, he was busy going out to direct the firefighting, he understood very well the importance of the granary, there were tens of thousands of stones of grain and grass piled up inside, if once the grain and grass were burned, then he had to be punished, and he would have to kill his head to ask for the crime.
"Hurry up, go and put out the fire, and send them all over to put out the fire. β
Then Chaisang Taishou personally went into battle, leading the soldiers into the firefighting, in fact, this fire up, and Yu Flip still has something to do with it, just a while, after Xu Hong's men finished transporting the grain and grass, Xu Hong pulled Yu Flip to retreat, Yu Flip at the beginning of a little did not want to retreat, according to his words, he planned to let Xu Hong go first after the break, he laughed and cried, what is the use of you staying? It was useless, so Xu Hong desperately pulled him away, and when he left, he accidentally touched the light of the granary, according to military regulations, there is no open flame near the grain and grass, but people like Xu Hong pulled the grain and grass out and transported it away.
"Stop!
Xu Hong saw that several soldiers of the enemy army found out, and directly pulled out their weapons to solve them, but at this time, it was too late in a hurry, I don't know who touched the candle flame, good guy, the granary itself is a dry place, in order to prevent the grain and grass from moldy, where did you ever think that even if it is outside, there are candles lit, which itself is used by the soldiers in the camp to illuminate, because it is impermeable here, and the light is very dim, these candles themselves are used for lighting, but I didn't expect the granary to be heavy, and in the end there was no fire candle, and I pity these grains and grass, after being robbed, it is inevitable to burn someγ
"Hahaha, speaking of which, these grains and grasses are also unlucky, well, in order not to let these grains and grasses suffer, after we go back, we will destroy her with the soldiers of the whole battalion. β
Yu turned over and blamed himself, because of his own mistakes, accidentally ignited some grain and grass, not to mention the robbery, that should be, but these burned grain and grass, there are some violent things, in the era of the Three Kingdoms, the production of grain is very low, and sometimes forage, is not so easy to obtain, weeds and weeds have no nutrition, and if you just eat grain and grass, the horses are not full, and they are not fat, as the saying goes, people are not rich without windfall, horses are not fat without night grass, without adding some horse cakes, horses are not able to grow stronglyγ
However, as soon as he heard what Xu Hong said without conscience, Yu Fan almost fainted, and after thinking about it, he joined other families, and he didn't care much about the affairs of the old master, even if he had a heart, he was actually powerless.
"Okay, I hope that in the future, I will serve under the camp tent, and I will assist you wholeheartedly, and I hope we can create a more ideal home country. β
Yu translated this sentence actually follows the ancient saying, although Confucianism pays attention to governing the world, but in the troubled times, it seems a little pale and powerless, can end the turmoil, only the powerful forces, need a tough character, only this way, can be convinced, can be unified by the will of all people, and then can be one mind, jointly govern the country in front of them, it is precisely because of this that we can create a stable future, the people can live and work in peace and contentment, in order to step into the future of the broad roadγ
"Okay, don't worry, I Xu Hong don't dare to say anything else, such a future will definitely be seen by you in your lifetime. β
Yu looked at his determined gaze and nodded, he chose to believe in Xu Hong, so he came to this point, so he did not hesitate, continued to follow his own path, and persevered forward, so he also put the ancient book for the time being, according to his words.
"In the prosperous times, we repair ancient books, and in troubled times, we should come out to help the world. β
Xu Hong saw that he had walked out of this knot, and returned to Xuzhou City with grain and grass with a smile.
They were happy here, and Chaisang Taishou finally sent someone to count the amount of grain and grass, and he couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, what the hell was the lack of 50,000 stone soldiers' rations? Could it be that so many of them were burned in such a timely manner? But what puzzled Chaisang Taishou was that almost all the soldiers who put out the fire said that they had not seen any thieves coming in and out, and the guards who guarded them also confirmed this statement, but after the final count, it was not the right number.
"Damn, it's all my fault, it's my negligence, I didn't do a good job of fire prevention measures, resulting in the loss of so many soldiers' food, it's all my fault, only all the soldiers were sent to defend the city, where would have you ever thought that the granary in the city would catch fire, I knew that if this was the case, I wouldn't have transferred so many soldiers to kill me, and I only cared about dealing with foreign enemies." β
In the end, Chai Sang Taishou did not dare to hide it, and wrote down the matter, and then the above table played Sun Quan, and then said that Sun Quan, at the beginning of receiving his table, he was still a little happy, and he was ordering someone to write a reply praising him, and then he went to rest, Meimei slept for a while, and when he got up to deal with political affairs, his message was sent back, and after reading it, his face was blue and he couldn't bear it, but he didn't say anything, and still let the reply that praised him was distributed as usual, and the rest was just asked.
"Spread my military order, from sending soldiers from the Chaisang granary, except for leaving enough food for one year in Chaisang City, all the rest of the grain will be transported to other cities. β
"Wow. β
Then Sun Quan was angry, rode on a horse to relax, and heard that when hunting, he also killed a tiger alone, so you can imagine how big the resentment is.
