Chapter 224: No chopsticks are allowed
The generals and strategists of the Yuan army were all dumbfounded.
What is this thing, so lethal?
First, the Ling Yue crossbow, followed by the three-eyed gun, black powder, and today he took out a thunder fire bomb.
Where did Yang Ling come from, so many new things?
After inventing black powder, Huang Yueying followed Yang Ling's instructions to further develop new types of ordnance.
The thunder fire bomb was made by Yang Ling after a grenade.
A clay pot filled with iron sand, lead, slag, etc., and gunpowder is used to make it a simple version of a grenade.
Although it is far less powerful than a real grenade, it is enough in the world.
It is the most suitable to break the formation!
Seeing that the encirclement of the Yuan army was blown out of a gap by the thunder bomb, Zhao Yun no longer loved to fight, and immediately led the Cao army soldiers to leave!
……
The fire in Yuan's camp lasted until dawn, when it gradually went out.
Looking at the ruined and messy camp, he looked at Guo Tu, Xianpei, Wen Chou, Gao Ran and others on the side,
"What about the losses in the army?"
"After counting the army, our army suffered thousands of casualties, lost more than 2,000 tents, and the army had grain and grass...... Almost all of them were burned. ”
Gao Lan said cautiously.
Hearing this, his body shook in frustration, and under the agitation of his heart, a mouthful of old blood spurted out.
"Overseer!"
The people next to him were shocked and hurriedly reached out to help him.
Frustrated to wipe the blood from the corners of his mouth, he brackered himself and laughed miserably,
"Last night, Cao Jun was in our army's camp, if he was in a no-man's land, it must be our inner ghost!"
When everyone heard this, their faces became solemn.
You must know that the management of the army is extremely strict, and the password and patrol arrangements in the battalion are changed every day.
However, according to the investigation after the incident, at least thousands of Cao troops set fire to the camp last night to create chaos.
Zhao Yun even knew where the camp was located, and rushed straight over.
How is this possible if there is no inner ghost to respond?
"According to the prison army, who is this person?"
Wen Chou's eyes were fierce, and he looked at everyone present.
As soon as he said the man's name, he shot him.
Frustrated Zhu touched his chin, groaned for a moment, and looked up at Guo Tu,
"Mr. Gongze, where were you last night?"
Guo Tu's heart was sudden, but he frowned on the surface,
"What do you mean by this, do you doubt me?"
"I'm just asking where you were last night, why are you so excited if you don't have a ghost in your heart?"
Fu Zhi sneered.
"Of course I don't have a ghost in my heart! I was in my tent last night, and I rested early! ”
"In that case, do you dare me to search your tent?"
"Don't go too far! If you doubt me, show me the evidence. If there is no evidence, you are taking revenge! ”
Guo Tu glared angrily.
In the opinion of Fu Zhi, the position of the inner ghost in the camp must not be low.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Cao Jun to know everything in the barracks well, and it was not until after the fire broke out that he was discovered by Fu Zhi and others.
The most suspicious is Guo Tu.
Who let him be surrounded by Cao's army before, but miraculously escaped back.
It's really weird!
Just when he was frustrated and Guo Tu was tense, and the smell of gunpowder was full, a gallop of horses' hooves came over.
The people looked up, but they saw a troop of horsemen galloping towards them.
The leader is none other than Yuan Shao.
Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang, Zhang He, Xu You, Chun Yuqiong and others all followed.
Everyone was stunned, but they didn't expect Yuan Shao to rush over in person.
"I've seen the lord!"
The crowd saluted.
Yuan Shao nodded at everyone, and then looked at Fu Zhu with a cold face,
"I order you to lead the army as the vanguard to meet the Cao army! It's good that you didn't fight Cao Jun head-on, so they burned the company camp first, how did you manage the army? ”
"Back to the lord, it must be us who have an inner ghost and secretly contact Cao Jun, otherwise they would not have been able to blend into the camp so smoothly!"
Frustrated Professor hurriedly argued.
"Lord, this is clearly excusing yourself."
Guo Tu seized the opportunity and hurriedly said,
"He even suspected that his subordinate was the inner ghost, and he wanted to search his subordinate's tent!"
"What, that's the case?"
Yuan Shao was suddenly furious,
"You've disappointed me so much! If you make a mistake yourself, you have to shift the responsibility to Mr. Gongze! ”
"Someone is coming, for the time being, I will detain the frustrated people, and then I will be sent down in the future!"
Tian Feng on the side was shocked when he heard this,
"Lord, by all means! The prison army has always been strategic, and although it is defeated today, it has made great contributions in the past. If the lord puts him in prison, won't it be chilling? ”
Hearing this, Yuan Shao's face was a little hesitant.
He was able to seize Qingzhou, Merge Prefecture, and Youzhou, and unify Hebei, which can be said to be indispensable.
Guo Tu observed his words and smiled coldly,
Mr. Yuan Hao's words are wrong. What if last night's defeat was a frustrated thief shouting to catch a thief? ”
"I vouch for my life, and the prison army will never be such a person."
Tian Feng said sincerely.
"Yes, what if you're in the same group?"
Guo Tu smiled yin,
"Don't forget, my lord, how did Yuan Hao dissuade him from going south in the first place?"
When Yuan Shao planned to attack Cao Cao in the south, Tian Feng tried his best to dissuade him.
However, due to his upright personality, he offended Yuan Shao between words.
Yuan Shao, who was angry, thought that he had ruined the morale of the army and almost punished him, but in the end, he was persuaded by Fu Zhu and others, so he was spared.
Hearing Guo Tu mention this today, Yuan Shao became suspicious.
Could it be because of the previous incident, Tian Feng held a grudge and joined forces with Fu Zhu to betray himself?
Quite possibly!
Yuan Shao's face was gloomy again, and he said coldly,
"Come on, take down Fu Zhu and Tian Feng together!"
Fu Zhu and Tian Feng were speechless, so they could only be arrested obediently.
Zhang He and the others on the side couldn't bear it, but they were afraid of Yuan Shao's suspicion, so they didn't dare to open their mouths to intercede for the two of them.
Seeing that his political opponent was arrested, Guo Tu and a few people on the side were full of pride.
Especially Guo Tu, a big stone in his heart also fell to the ground.
You must know that the letters he exchanged with Yang Ling have not yet been destroyed, and they are still in the account.
Not bad.
The reason why Cao Jun was able to attack Yuan Jun at night was entirely because Guo Tu acted as an internal response.
Under Yang Ling's threat, Guo Tu decided to cooperate with him after careful consideration.
As soon as it could be avoided, Yuan Shao knew that he was captured by Cao Jun and protected himself.
Second, he can also take the opportunity to get rid of competitors.
It's a win-win!
……
After the end of the military meeting, Guo Tu used the excuse of going back to the camp to rest.
As a result, as soon as he entered the camp tent, he saw Wang Yousheng waiting for him.
"Thank you so much for last night's incident, sir."
Wang Yousheng smiled and groaned,
"My husband is going to hold a celebration banquet today, and he specially said that if Mr. Gongze is not present, no one is allowed to move chopsticks."
