Chapter 2188 Burning Food and Grass (3)
"Marshal, don't worry! We will definitely guard the barracks and prevent people with red blood from attacking us!" The generals vowed, slapping their chests, and their words were full of confidence.

Indeed, the two big victories and the killing of tens of thousands of Chixue, even if they did not do it themselves, are enough to make them confident in their own fighting power and the various trump cards of the two Highnesses.

Although Qin Shuang and A Chen didn't think that they would be able to completely prevent Red Blood's schemes if they were full of confidence, they didn't deliberately discourage their enthusiasm. After all, even if they were really recruited, the impact shouldn't be too big with them around. For a few days, they let Hehuan and the others take turns to walk around the barracks every day and keep an eye on it.

For the next two days, the barracks were indeed on guard all the time. Although they won the battle, the war would not be over until the Red Blood Army retreated, so they couldn't let them relax and have a happy celebration banquet.

And in the past two days, Xuantian's secret sentry has not sent any news, and the unusual dead silence on the Red Blood Army's side has made the generals feel that this is the calm before the storm, and they don't know when it will completely erupt .

After that, the third day, the fourth day, the fifth day...

War is not something that can be accomplished overnight. There is nothing strange about six or seven days without any movement. Normally speaking, a battle usually takes at least a month or so, and it may take three to five months or a year and a half. load.

This time, it only took a few days for the opponent to lose one-third of the troops. This speed is already unique. Xiong Ba has learned his lesson twice, and he can't be expected to continue to be stupid and bring soldiers into the gun.

Slow down the pace a bit, and the generals in the barracks are more adaptable. The previous shocks again and again under the leadership of Qin Shuang and A Chen have challenged their psychological endurance. Take a break.

But this break is really a problem!
After all, the Red Blood Nation has made a move!

On the seventh day after the last battle ended, when they were close to Zi, Qin Shuang and A Chen had just finished a love affair, sticking together and talking nonchalantly, should we just blow up a certain corner of the Red Blood Barracks? Let me remind Xiong Ba, and when I told him that their barracks was not safe, a panicked voice suddenly came from outside: "It's not good! It's gone! Something happened to the food—!"

The two people in the tent bounced up from the bed reflexively, looked at each other, and before they had time to say anything, they quickly put on their clothes and prepared to go out to have a look.

When they got out of the tent, there was already a mess outside, and many soldiers ran to the place where the grain and grass were stored, still carrying buckets of water in their hands, obviously going to fight the fire.

The two of them looked at the red-hot night sky that could be seen from a long distance away, and didn't want the others to be so alarmed. Qin Shuang quickly asked Xiao Qi to scan it, and first confirmed that the area where the water flowed was only for storing grain and grass. place, or elsewhere.

After finally confirming that there is only a place to store grain and grass, he felt relieved, and only raised his eyebrows slightly, "Burn grain and grass? Is this the idea? It's a good plan."

Ah Chen was also looking at a small red area on the specially marked map that Qin Shuang had shared with him and scanned by Xiaoqi, "Didn't Marshal Situ order all the generals to be alert? Why are you still on the right track?"

Qin Shuang snorted softly, with disapproval in his eyes, "Did you forget that there are at least two traitors in the army who haven't been caught and secret sentries from the Scarlet Blood Country?"

Even without these traitors, the Scarlet Blood Army is not a fool. It was a disadvantage because they were unprepared for being counted twice by bombs before, and they don't know their strength, but this does not mean that they have no ability to sneak in secretly. Something bad.
