Chapter 407 Dawn is Coming! (Thanks to [Qi Ban Shuo] for the reward)

"Why are you in a daze? Hurry up and set fire to the food!"

"Ah! Here!" The cavalry were brought back to their senses by Lu Yan's snarl, and they rushed forward immediately, and set fire to the thickest and largest main granary in Wuchao.

The fire is soaring!

"The main warehouse is on fire!"

"Fight the fire! Quickly put out the fire!"

Thousands of soldiers led by Chunyu Qiong just arrived for reinforcements.

Lu Yan's small team of a few hundred riders is probably not enough for people to bite their teeth.

The main reason is that the shadow was shot out by the strong crossbow just now, and the effect of immobility like a mountain is gone, so if you resist the strong crossbow hard, you will suffer heavy losses.
Lu Yan is not Tietouwa. Seeing that Yuan Jun was coming, he immediately sent out a whistle, recalled the brothers who were still burning around, and shouted: "Brothers, retreat!"

Hundreds of cavalry hula la quickly withdrew.

On the way of retreating, a courageous soldier of the Dragon Riding Battalion asked the comrades beside him, "Erwa, do you think Lu Hussars really know how to demonize?"

Erwa glared at the soldier who asked the question, and scolded: "Bah! What is demon method? Lu Hussar made it called immortal method, do you understand immortal method!"

"Anthracene! Yes! It's a fairy method!"

At this time, another person beside them came to join in the fun and said: "What's so strange about Lu Hussar's ability to use immortal techniques?

When I left the barracks before, Lu Huanqi read an article, and I suddenly felt that my strength increased greatly, and my mind was clear. It was obvious that Lu Huqi had cast the magic spell on me! "

The soldier who asked the question suddenly said: "So that's the case! I thought I suddenly became enlightened!"

Guandu, Yuan Shao camp.

The darkness before dawn has passed, and the sky has also gradually brightened.

When Ningguo Zhonglang Zhang He got up early to patrol the camp, he suddenly found that the sky in the direction of Wuchao turned red for some reason!
"No, I'm afraid there is a fire in the direction of Wuchao!"

Zhang Yun came to his senses in an instant, and hurriedly went to Yuan Shaoshuai's account to report.

"My lord! My lord! The Wuchao is on fire, and the situation is not good!" Zhang Yun shouted outside. If his personal guards hadn't stopped him, he might have rushed into Yuan Shao's inner tent.

Yuan Shao was awakened by the shouts outside, and sat on the bed sleepily, dazed for two or three seconds.

"My lord, the black nest is on fire"

More and more generals and counselors discovered Wuchao's anomaly, and rushed to report it.

"Oops!" Yuan Shao finally came to his senses, and immediately murmured to himself in panic, "My food! It's broken! It's broken! It's broken!"

Yuan Shao didn't have time to get dressed, so he walked out of the inner tent, but when he saw the generals and counselors coming one after another after hearing the news, he suddenly calmed down, and said to everyone, "Why are you panicking? It's just food and grass."

Feeling Yuan Shao's composure, everyone also found their backbone and immediately calmed down.

Seeing Yuan Shao come out, Zhang He immediately suggested: "My lord, Wuchao has been attacked by surprise, and the situation is extremely serious! All our food and grass are stored there, so we can't afford to lose it. My lord, please send troops to the rescue!"

At this time, Guo Tu, who was promoted by Yuan Shao to be the mastermind because he drove away Xu You, suddenly objected:

"General Zhang's words are wrong! Cao Cao's surprise attack on Wuchao will go there in person, and all the best soldiers in the camp will be sent out.

If we go to attack Cao Cao's Guandu camp at this moment, as long as we defeat his Guandu camp, our army will be able to drive straight into Chenliu and Xuchang, and what a pity it is? "

Zhang Yun didn't know how Guo Tu got into the position of mastermind, but now was not the time to distinguish these things. He persuaded again: "Cao Jun has two walls, well-defended, and it is very difficult to attack in a hurry. If Wuchao With all the food destroyed and the morale of our army collapsing, none of us in Guandu will be able to escape, and they will all be prisoners!"

Seeing that the two were arguing, Yuan Shao seemed to have a reason, he still hesitated after thinking for a while, so he thought of a compromise, and said: "Both of you are right, but in my opinion, Cao Jun is There are few people, and if we divide our troops again, there may not be many left.

Wuchao also needs to be rescued, but it is not appropriate to assign too many soldiers.

Because even if Cao Cao breaks Chunyuqiong and burns our army's food and grass, if I take the opportunity to break through his Guandu Camp, Cao Cao will be just a lost dog sooner or later. "

Zhang Yun wanted to persuade him again, but Yuan Shao directly ordered: "Zhang Yun, Gao Lan! I order you two to lead the main force to attack Cao Jun's camp. You must break through the Guandu defense before Cao Jun returns to help!"

Zhang He and Gao Lan had no choice but to take orders: "Your subordinates take orders!"

Seeing that Zhang He Gao Lan was taking the order, Yuan Shao nodded slightly, and then ordered: "Han Juzi, Lu Weihuang! Order you two to lead two thousand light cavalry and three thousand infantry to Wuchao for rescue!"

"Here!" Han Juzi and Lu Weihuang hurriedly led the troops without saying a word.

After finishing the arrangements, Yuan Shao returned to his internal account in a leisurely manner, as if the battle had already been won.
Han Juzi and Lu Weihuang led two thousand light cavalry and three thousand infantry on the road to rescue Wuchao. After walking not far, they could already see the fire in the direction of Wuchao from a distance.

Han Juzi said worriedly: "It's over! Seeing how fast the fire is, I'm afraid Wuchao's food will be burned up! What's the use of rushing now?"

Lu Weihuang replied: "The situation is unknown, maybe General Chunyuqiong is still resisting?

It's not a problem for us to hurry, how about this, I will lead the cavalry first, and you will follow up with the infantry. In case of accident, let's retreat faster. "

Han Juzi nodded in agreement, and Lu Weihuang gave the order, leading the cavalry to gallop away like a gust of wind.

In less than an hour, Lu Weihuang approached the several-kilometer-long strip of Wuchao.

Thick smoke billowed in mid-air, and the thick smoke from the camp ahead choked people's noses.

Cao Cao and Lu Yan stood on the canyon wall, watching the fire in Wuchao camp while listening to the scouts' reports.

The Wuchao camp has already been breached by its own army.

With eight thousand elite cavalry and a few peerless generals, Chunyu Qiong resisted in vain for a while, and finally hid in the depths of the camp, not daring to come out.

The fire engulfed the camp. In order to prevent his own cavalry from being scorched by the fire, Cao Cao temporarily withdrew and came to the valley outside.

The reason why Cao Cao didn't retreat immediately was because he knew that Yuan Shao would definitely send reinforcements.

Since your army still has spare strength, why not eat this batch of reinforcements before returning to Guandu?

Guandu had advisers such as Guo Jia and Xun Yu, as well as generals such as Huang Zhong, Tai Shici, Wei Yan, and Dian Wei, and tens of thousands of soldiers. Cao Cao had great confidence in them and believed that they would definitely be able to block Yuan Shao's final blow.

Cao Cao watched the dust raised by Yuan Jun's cavalry in the distance, and the scouts reported: "My lord, Yuan Jun's cavalry is less than ten miles away from us!"

The corner of Cao Cao's mouth curled up, and he said to Lu Yan beside him, "Immortal Lu, do you want to use the immortal technique again?"

The corner of Lu Yan's mouth twitched, and he lied with an embarrassed smile, "I don't know any magic tricks. It's nothing more than using the treasure my master left me to save my life. Oh, what a blood loss!"

It turned out that Immortal Lu did not pierce the last layer of window paper, but he used foreign objects!

It's good that Cao Cao's heart suddenly settled down, he can continue to stay!
Cao Cao was in a happy mood, and said to several messengers in a brisk tone: "You immediately split up and tell the generals that when the enemy cavalry arrives, don't attack and let them in. Wait until the infantry behind come out, and then charge out together!"

"Here!" The messenger immediately scattered away.

Seeing that Xu Chu next to him was scratching his head anxiously, Cao Cao said with a smile, "Zhongkang, go to some activities too. It's rare for you to make a move by my side. I've wronged you!"

"Here!" Xu Chu excitedly agreed, and just ran two steps, but turned back and asked, "But Prime Minister, who will protect you when I leave?"

Cao Cao turned his head towards Lu Yan and pouted, "With Mr. Lu here, who can hurt me?"

"That's right! Lu Hussars can not only fight against a thousand cavalry with one man, but also rely on their own strength to resist a volley of crossbows! In this world, I am afraid that no one can hurt you except Lu Bu!"

After Xu Chu finished speaking, he hurriedly ran towards the place where the others were ambush.
