One Thousand One Hundred and Seventy: Facing Xu Pei, the First Prince to Kill (40)

Yuanxin’s experience tells us a truth——

Don't pretend to be a fool, you will be struck by lightning! It's okay, don't stand around!

Yuan Xin set up an oversized one, so don't blame others for not slapping him in the face.

Approaching the exit of the South Road, the counselor's nerves became more and more tense, and he did not dare to neglect at all. Instead, Yuan Xin happily hummed a little tune.

Seeing the serious expression on the counselor's face, he couldn't help persuading him, "Why must the military commander be so nervous? We cut off the food as fast as lightning and as fast as thunder. Presumably the willow thief is still kept in the dark and doesn't know that the rear food line is lost. How did they stop and ambush before us?"

Yuan Xin couldn't get used to the look of literati chattering and hesitating the most, worrying about the sky one by one, it was annoying to death.

The counselor in front of him was still inexperienced, so he couldn't suppress Yuanxin at all, let alone make him obedient.

When Yuan Xin said this, the counselor didn't bother to say much.

"Have friends come from afar?"

After marching for half an hour, when they were about to leave Xingcheng South Road in Hujun County, a heavy sound resounded through the sky, like thunder on a sunny day.

The phrase "It's such a joy to have friends coming from afar" echoed in the mountains. Original confidence was shocked, and he quickly grasped the reins.

"Everyone, why don't you rest for a while, so that we can fulfill the friendship of the landlord?"

Layers of echoes just fell, followed by another sentence.

"There is an ambush!"

Yuan Xin didn't care about being slapped in the face, and quickly drew his sword to meet the enemy.

As soon as the voice fell, the enemy sprung up like mushrooms, the way was blocked, and there were traces of the enemy behind.

Seeing so many enemies appearing quietly, everyone turned pale with fright, and the originally neat queue became chaotic.

Yuan Xin was even more furious when he saw it, the enemy was in chaos before they came over, teammate Pig!

The counselor said, "The enemy is numerous and powerful, so I ask the general to make a decision early!"

This counselor is an aide who simply gives ideas and has no military power in the army, so he has to consult the original letter before ordering the army.

Yuan Xin gritted his teeth cruelly, and said, "Could it be possible to burn all 50,000 shi of grain?"

The counselor said, "If you don't burn it, the enemy will surely snatch it back. The gain outweighs the loss."

The enemy surrounded them. If they didn't burn the food, these trucks would become a drag on their breakout.

If they meet someone with combat experience, it will be difficult for them to break through, but they will be polished by the opponent until they die without a whole body.

It's better to be more cruel, if you can't get it, you won't let the enemy get it.

They have lost food and grass, but the enemy's losses have been even greater.

It's not that Yuan Xin doesn't know this truth, but he feels distressed.

Seeing that the 50,000 shi of grain was about to be transported out of Xingcheng South Road, the enemy sent troops to block their way out.

Time is running out, and Yuan Xin is not allowed to think too much.

"Burn it - gather soldiers and horses to break through!"

Don't look at Yuan Xin's narrow-mindedness, who likes to make small reports against Nie Xun, but he is still reliable in matters of right and wrong.

At this moment, Qi Guan asked to shake his feather fan.

Seeing that the enemy moved, he moved his wrist, and the fan of the feather fan fell down with his movement.

"kill!"

The horn of attack sounded, resounding through the mountains, and the loud echo reached everyone's eardrums.

"Military division, they set fire to the food—"

Before the two armies handed over, they saw flames and smoke rising from the supply and grain team.

Qi Guanrang sneered, and said, "When the food is burnt, it will be burnt, and it tastes just right with human flesh."

Li Yun couldn't hold back a chill, roasting human flesh or something——

Just thinking about it makes my throat sour.

Qi Guan's eyes turned cold, and he said indifferently, "We can't keep food in the first place, if we can save part of it, then we are lucky, if not, then there is no need for such a pity. If they set fire, then let them suffer by themselves. Pass the order down, only to encircle but not to attack—"

Don't look at the relaxed appearance of Qi Guan letting others surround here, in fact, they can only lie in ambush for two hours.

Two hours ago, they were taking shortcuts elsewhere.

If a little later,

They can only watch helplessly as the enemy flees with food.

Although the army did not show signs of fatigue, it did consume a lot of physical strength and it was not suitable for a strong attack.

Since Yuan Xin and others set fire to the food cruelly, let them taste the pain themselves.

Unable to break through, only the taste of being with the flames.

Doing so can not only relieve anger, but also cover up the shortcomings of the army's insufficient combat power.

The two words just now seemed to be to pretend to scare the enemy, but in fact it was Qi Guanrang's trick to create an illusion of sufficient combat power. The strategy of only besieging but not attacking at this moment is also to confuse the enemy and exhaust their patience and reason.

Li Yun said, "The final general will obey the order."

Qi Guan asked to bring a ponytail, sit and watch the play, fanning himself by the way.

The weather was hot, even though he had changed into a summer shirt, he was still sweating profusely from the heat, and looking at the continuous fire made him even more angry.

He is free and easy, but Yuan Xin and others have suffered a lot.

The enemy can always predict the direction of their breakout in advance, that's all, but the opponent is a tortoise, so he shrinks his head and refuses to fight.

The counselor said, "Don't be in a hurry, general, first stabilize the position and gather troops to break through. Don't mess up your position."

The more chaotic they are, the more advantage the enemy has.

The fire on the baggage truck was already considerable. According to the fire, the enemy would not be able to save much if they wanted to save food.

The 50,000 shi of grain was turned into ashes, and their goal of intercepting the enemy's grain line was achieved.

Now it is only necessary to gather troops to one place and break through with a strong force.

Yuan Xin also knew this truth, but the counselor beeping in his ear was more annoying than tens of thousands of flies.

"I would have known about this matter, so you don't need to waste your words."

The counselor's face turned blue, and he had to hold on tight to the reins to ensure that he would not lose his composure.

He understood Nie Xun's suffering——

I really want to jump up and smash this person's brain!

Defensive battles are Qi Guanrang's forte, and the troops under his camp are well-trained soldiers, so I dare not say that everyone can obey orders and prohibitions, but the basic orders will not go wrong. One person's strength is not enough to fear, but hundreds of thousands of people can form an impenetrable human wall.

There is no way to break through in the future, and there is no retreat in the future. This is the predicament that Yuan Xin encounters now.

What's even more frightening is that the fire on the rear baggage truck is getting bigger and bigger, and the enemy has further shrunk the defense line, squeezing their space.

The number of soldiers who were hacked to death by the enemy was not as many as those who were burned to death.

At this moment, Yuan Xin's face turned ashen.

He knows the enemy's plan!

Really insidious!

The screams of killing shook the sky, and corpses littered the field.

Yuan Xin and the others had their eyes red, and after an hour of fierce fighting, they finally broke through with the remnants of Xingcheng South Road.

In this battle, 50% of Yuanxin's soldiers and horses were lost, and 70% of the 50% were burned to death by the fire!

After breaking through with difficulty, Yuan Xin and others naturally did not dare to stay, and fled with the remnants of the defeated army.

Li Yun led the soldiers pretending to kill and shouted for a while, until the enemy disappeared.

Qi Guan held the feather fan in his right hand and the folded Maza in his left, looking at the direction where the enemy was leaving.

"withdraw troops!"
