Inside the city, the granary!

In this place, there are not many soldiers stationed, only more than 30 soldiers to maintain order. шщш.(vii) (ix) x.S.сом The update is so fast. As long as the city is not broken, the granary is safe. Huo Jun is responsible for food security, and he often patrols inside.

On this day, it was almost noon.

Huo Jun and Chen arrived in the granary and inspected the granary as usual. And the soldier stayed outside and did not follow. Chen Zhi followed Huo Jun and said, "Brother Zhong Miao, with so much food, can't it be preserved?"

For the burning of grain, Chen Zhi is still a little unbearable.

If you can leave the food, then at least let the Jingzhou soldiers support it for a while.

It's a shame to burn it with a fire.

Huo Jun shook his head and said: "This is a helpless thing, if you want to move these grains and put up an empty city plan, it will definitely have a huge impact, but it will affect the entire plan." ”

Chen Zhi sighed and said, "That's it!"

Huo Jun said: "Uncle and brother, this bit of grain is just 'Mao' and 'Mao' rain for Jingzhou. With Jingzhou's current capacity, it is enough to supply the soldiers of the army, so there is no need to have any regrets. If you don't burn this food, you will have to pile it up with the lives of countless soldiers. It is worth exchanging the lives of thousands of soldiers for this food. ”

Chen Zhi nodded and said: "I understand the truth, but I just think it's a pity." ”

I think that Liu Bei had to give up Zhao Yun to Liu Xiu in the end because of a little food. Now, so much grain is about to be burned, and Chen Zhi always has a little pimple in his heart.

Huo Jun said: "Ready, it's almost time." ”

The two walked to the innermost part of the granary, and then Chen Zhi took out the flint and soon lit the fire.

"Whew, whew!"

The fire ignited and burned quickly.

In particular, the granary was extremely dry, and after there was a spark, it quickly burned.

Inside the granary, smoke billowed from the barn.

"It's on fire, come and put out the fire. ”

Huo Jun yelled and ran out, and Chen Zhi also followed behind Huo Jun and rushed out together. Not long after, the two of them had already rushed out of the granary, standing at the entrance of the 'door', looking at the more than thirty soldiers at the entrance of the 'door', Huo Jun ordered: "Quick, quickly prepare water to fight the fire, the granary is on fire." ”

When more than 30 soldiers heard this, they were all extremely shocked.

The granary is on fire!

How is this possible, there is no Mars in it.

But when I looked up, I could already see the raging fires and the billowing smoke. This scene made the soldiers quickly go to fetch water, and then they got into the granary.

However, more than 30 soldiers put out the fire, and there was no time to rescue.

The fire spread quickly.

The soldiers stationed in the granary retreated again and again, and finally had to withdraw from the granary, and could not enter at all.

Huo Jun also looked anxious, grabbed two soldiers out, and ordered: "No, we can't put out the fire with our strength alone." Now, you should immediately go to the castle tower and inform the prefectural magistrate and ask the prefectural magistrate to come and put out the fire. ”

"Yes!"

The two soldiers received the order, turned and left.

After Huo Jun saw the soldiers disappear from sight, he looked at the billowing smoke in the sky, looked at the soldiers around him, and said loudly: "Go and carry water and try to extinguish the fire." I'm going to find the big families nearby now and ask them to send someone to the rescue. ”

After giving the order, Huo Jun turned around and left.

Chen Zhi followed behind Huo Jun and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

......

Outside the city, the siege continued.

Suddenly, Liu Xiu saw the billowing smoke burning in the city.

The smoke gradually became denser and denser, and it did not disperse in the sky for a long time. Liu Xiu was overjoyed in his heart, looked at Wen Ping, and ordered: "Wen Ping, the granary in the city has caught fire, and now withdraw the troops temporarily." ”

"No!"

After Wen Ping got the order, he immediately withdrew his troops.

After the Jingzhou soldiers who were besieging the city got the order, they retreated like a 'tide'.

The Jingzhou soldiers retreated, and the soldiers stationed on the city tower breathed a sigh of relief.

However, suddenly someone noticed the smoke burning in the city. Huang Quan and Qu Zheng both saw it, Qu Zheng frowned and said, "Why did the fire suddenly break out in the city, the fire is still so big." ”

Huang Quan said: "It may be that there is a fire somewhere, and it is normal for a fire to start. ”

After a moment's notice, he said, "At noon, the other party finally retreated. Now, we were finally able to breathe a sigh of relief and rest before fending off the Jingzhou soldiers' attacks. ”

Qu Zheng said: "Today is the second day, and I don't know when the reinforcements will arrive?"

Huang Quan said: "I'm already on the way here, and it's estimated that it's only been a day or two." If we hold on, we will be able to wait for reinforcements to arrive. Liu Xiu wants to break through Qu Ren County, that is impossible. ”

Qu Zheng nodded, his gaze still outside the city.

At this time, the withdrawn Jingzhou army had already lined up and purged the army.

Wen Ping looked at the reorganized army, gave an order, and said loudly: "The granary in the city is on fire!"

"The granary in the city is on fire!"

"The granary in the city is on fire!"

The soldiers of the Jingzhou Army all shouted.

The sound of neatness resounded inside and outside the city.

When Huang Quan heard the news, his body was stunned, and his face showed an incredible look, how could the granary in the city be on fire? He looked at the soldiers around him, and saw that all the soldiers were very surprised, and said loudly: "The Jingzhou army is all deceitful, and they deliberately did this in order to shake the morale of our army. ”

The soldiers on the city tower listened, and the expressions on their faces were still very solemn.

One by one, they looked at the location of the fire in the city.

Isn't the place where the smoke is billowing is where the granary is?

Qu Zheng came to Huang Quan's side and said, "Huang County order, as soon as the Jingzhou soldiers outside the city saw the smoke rising from the city, they retreated, and then they opened their mouths and shouted that the granary in the city was on fire. This thing is very strange! Could it be that the granary in the city caught fire, and it was arranged by Liu Xiu. ”

Huang Quan's face suddenly turned pale!

A hint of bad premonition was bred in Huang Quan's heart.

Is the granary really on fire?

No, it is absolutely impossible.

Huang Quan didn't believe in such a possibility at all, he flicked his sleeves and said: "Qu Zheng, the granary has money to guard, if he wants to defeat Liu Xiu and become famous, he will definitely go all out, there is no problem with the granary." ”

Qu Zheng sighed and said, "I hope it is as you say!"

"Report!"

Suddenly, an eager voice came from not far away.

The man who came was the soldier who had come to report it, and before the soldier reached the bottom of the tower, he shouted loudly: "The granary is on fire, no, the granary is on fire." Two soldiers ran, shouting loudly as they ran.

Rumble!

When countless soldiers heard this, their minds were blank, and their whole people were stunned.

The granary is really on fire!

Without food, how can they resist?

When Huang Quan heard the news, his legs went limp, and he almost fell to the ground. He stretched out his hand to prop up the 'female' wall, his face full of incredulity, and muttered, "Impossible, how is this possible?"

Qu Zheng swallowed his saliva and said, "Huang County Order, what should I do now?"

At this moment, Qu Zheng's heart was already beginning to retreat.

The grain was burned, and the impact was too great.

In fact, if Liu Xiu's army is not outside, after the food is gone, the major families can still sit together to discuss and re-gather the grain. But now Liu Xiu was eyeing him outside, and as soon as the soldiers in the army heard it, the army's heart collapsed instantly.

Huang Quan's heart was also very 'intersecting', he quickly shuttled among the soldiers, telling the soldiers that there was still the rest of the food in the city, so that the soldiers did not have to care about the burning granary.

However, this effect is not significant.

The morale of the army is still very low.

A quarter of an hour had passed, and suddenly the rumbling drums of war were remembered again outside the city.

"Kill!"

"Kill into the county. ”

"Kill!"

Countless soldiers shouted and began to attack again. This time, the sprint of the Jingzhou soldiers was completely in the posture of a tiger descending the mountain, and when they sprinted, the officers and soldiers on the city tower had no intention of fighting at all.

The grain was burned, and the morale of the army was unstable.

The Jingzhou army is different, and its momentum is like a rainbow.

The two sides compared, and in an instant, the defenders of Qu Ren County fell into disadvantage.

The two sides soon fought again, and soon after the first battle, the soldiers defending the city stopped resisting, turned around and fled. When this happened, many soldiers followed suit.

"I surrender!"

"I'm willing to surrender, don't kill me!"

After a while, the soldiers defending the city who surrendered on their knees appeared.

At this moment, Qu Ren County no longer has the slightest strength to resist, and it is already defeated.
