Cao Thief

Chapter 322 Cut Yanliang (12)

So what, it's Monday, is there any recommended tickets, is there any?

--------------

Cao Peng huddled in a small space, and there was a burst of noise from above his head.

There are the neighing of war horses, the conversation of soldiers, the collision of weapons... All kinds of sounds are mixed together, which makes people feel very harsh.

Those soldiers spoke in a thick dialect.

Maybe it's from Jizhou...or Bingzhou?Youzhou?Qingzhou?
Anyway, Yuan Shaojun's soldiers are very mixed, including Han people and Hu people who are attached to the Han people.Hebei is a vast area, and God knows what words they are talking about.The general meaning can be understood, but if there are too many dialects and the accent is too strong, it will be difficult to understand.

call!
A wooden barrel fell from Cao Peng's eyes and fell into the well with a bang.

The bucket swayed left and right in the well, and the rope as thick as two fingers slapped on the wall of the well, almost hitting Cao Peng.

Immediately afterwards, the wooden barrel filled with well water slowly rose.

Cao Peng held his breath, leaned back again, closed his eyes and secretly guessed that above his head should be Yuan Jun's rear camp.

These guys really know how to choose places!

----------------------

That's right, Cao Peng was hiding in the well at this moment, and on the wall above the well water, a cave was dug for one person to hide in.

There are 47 wells in Baima, each of which has such a cave.

Cao Peng ordered people to dig out these caves overnight for people to hide in.This time he is stationed in Baima, and the task is arduous.

According to ordinary people's thinking, it is enough to keep the white horse.

But in Cao Peng's view, simple guarding is not an easy task.Yanjin reinforcements must give a heavy blow, otherwise reinforcements will continue to pour in.

Cao Cao's intention to capture the white horse was to delay time.

If Yuan Jun can be wiped out, it would be a good strategy...

This idea came to Cao Peng when he found a whole yard of tung oil piled up in the courtyard.

During the Three Kingdoms period, what was the most famous?
Fire attack!

Huangfu Song set fire to Changsha, Zhuge Liang set fire to Bowang, Sun and Liu allied forces set fire to Chibi, Lu Xun set fire to Yiling... Such battles are familiar.Since Zhuge Liang was able to set fire to Xinye, he could also set the white horse on fire today.

Once this thought pops up, it can no longer be stopped.

For this reason, Cao Peng also found Jia Xu and told him what he thought.

Jia Xu was a little hesitant at first, but after thinking about it, she felt that this plan was not impossible.

However, in order to implement this strategy, many meticulous things are required.After Le Jin left, Jia Xu and Cao Peng studied it carefully, and finally came up with a proper plan.First of all, this strategy needs to vary from person to person.If the other party comes from someone like Zhang He Gao Lan, Jia Xu thinks it is not appropriate.However, Zhang He Gaolan is still in Liyang, so it is naturally impossible to appear outside the White Horse City, so the Yuan Jun general who is most likely to attack the White Horse is Yan Liang, who had made a big splash in Yanjin before... If it was Yan Liang, it would be easy to handle!

Jia Xu ordered people to pour tung oil into the gutters on both sides of the street.

Then the same was sprinkled here and there, and enough kindling was laid.

Tung oil is an item used to start fires in military camps.Yuan Jun put such an astonishing amount of tung oil in Baimatun, which happened to be used by Cao Peng.

At the same time, a large amount of charcoal used for heating was also sprinkled on the road.

Then Jia Xu ordered people to block the east gate, and made a posture of preparing to defend it to confuse the opponent.

They also made caves on the walls of 47 wells in the city, and selected 47 warriors to hide in them, preparing to set fire at that time.

These 47 warriors took a lot of thought.

Although it is possible to hide in the well, it is also in a dangerous situation and may die at any time.

For this reason, Cao Peng finally decided that he would lead the team.

"I am the general, if I can't lead the soldiers, how can I serve the soldiers?
Besides, this arson seems dangerous, but it is not... On the contrary, when Yuan Jun breaks through, you will inevitably have a fierce battle outside the city.

I stay, and the other 46 people can make their own decisions. "

Jia Xu was taken aback and tried to persuade him.

But since Cao Peng made up his mind, he couldn't stop him from coming.

In the end, Cao Peng ordered Deng Fan, Hao Zhao and Xia Houlan to stay, while Gan Ning Dianman and Xu Yi followed Jia Xu and led his troops to withdraw from Baima.

The three of Gan Ning naturally refused to agree, but Cao Peng took out the Tianxian knife, so they finally agreed...

Among the 47 warriors, except Cao Peng, the other 43 belonged to Heishan.The infantry battalion is also very capable, but there are too many people talking about it, and Cao Peng didn't intend to reveal it to them.However, Heizhen is different. Cao Peng chose all sharp men who had followed him for more than two years and were loyal to him... After all the arrangements were made, Jia Xu led his troops to withdraw from the White Horse, while Cao Peng and others hid in the well. middle.

Days, gradually dark.

After a period of noise, Baima County returned to calm.

From the current point of view, everything is normal, and there are no flaws...

After Yuan Jun entered Baima, he did not find any traps in the city.In fact, after nightfall, the temperature is very cold.Although it is the beginning of spring according to the solar terms, how high can the temperature be on the first day of the first month?Especially when there was a wind in the middle of the night, it was even more uncomfortable.

So Yuan Jun went back to his room early to rest.

--------------------------

It looks like everything is going well.

People who are just hiding in the cave on the side of the well are suffering.

There is well water under the body, and the cave is even more humid.People hide inside, not daring to move.It would be fine if it was only for a while, but Cao Peng and the others have been hiding in the cave since the afternoon, until now, for a total of four hours, nearly eight hours, which is very uncomfortable.

The movement overhead was getting smaller and smaller.

Faintly, you can hear the sound of patrolmen passing by on the street.

After Xu time, the temperature is getting lower and lower.

Cao Peng calculated the time, and it was almost time.So he struggled to poke his head out of the cave, glanced at the mouth of the well, and then followed the unnoticed wooden stakes embedded in the well wall, and climbed up step by step.Sticking his head out of the well, he saw that it was pitch black and there was no one there, so Cao Peng felt relieved, turned over, climbed out of the well, walked along a high wall, and walked out lightly.

On the street, nobody!

Baima is an empty city, and the houses are empty.

Just as Cao Peng squatted down, he saw a person walking out of the alley not far away.

The man waved his hand at Cao Peng, and then squatted down.I can't tell who it is, but it looks like it should be one of us...

Cao Peng took out a fire pocket from his pocket and wiped it vigorously on the wall.

With a sizzling sound, sparks burst out, and the fire box suddenly lit up.Throwing the torch on a clump of dry grass, watching the dry grass ignite and spread rapidly.At the same time, almost all of the more than [-] places in Baima County have this situation.When the dry grass ignited the tung oil in the ditch, the fire suddenly exploded.Now Cao Peng saw clearly that the person at the alley was Deng Fan.

"go!"

Cao Peng made a retreat gesture, turned around and walked towards the well.

Unexpectedly, there were three Yuan soldiers drawing water by the well. Seeing Cao Peng and the fires all over the city, the soldiers couldn't help being startled.

"enemy……"

Before they could open their mouths, two iron meteors had flown to the front, with two bangs, hitting the soldier's face.

The distance was not too far, Cao Peng shot out with all his strength, and two iron meteors hit the front door, directly denting the soldier's brow bone.At the same time, Cao Peng leaped into the dragon's gate, jumped into the air, took advantage of the opportunity, drew a dagger from his waist, and threw the soldier to the ground with a whimper.The two stopped after rolling twice on the ground. Cao Peng got up, glanced at the dead body on the ground, ran to the well, and jumped into the well.

Damn, it's so cold!

The cold well water made Cao Peng's head go numb.

Fortunately, he was still awake, climbed onto the edge of the cave, scrambled into the cave, grabbed the fur coat on the ground, and wrapped himself tightly.

At this time, the fire has spread...

The wind on the first day of the first lunar month was very biting and a little strong.

The wind assisted the fire, and the fire borrowed the power of the wind. In an instant, the entire white horse was covered in a sea of ​​flames.

The soldiers sleeping in the house were awakened.

When they rushed to the door, they found that the door had been blocked by fire.The fire seedlings poured into the house, and there was that careless soldier, who was covered in fire instantly after being stained with tung oil, turning into a burning man.The shrill wailing sound echoed in the house, and the burning men rushed around, bringing the furnishings in the house with them, and setting them on fire one after another.The two soldiers rushed over and chopped down their former companions with a single knife, but they couldn't help showing despair when they saw the doors and windows sealed by the fire... After the two looked at each other, they gritted their teeth and wanted to rush out.But the fire was okay, the terrible thing was that the charcoal that was spread on the street was also ignited.The long street was completely red, and the soldiers who rushed out of the house did not take a few steps before their boots were ignited by the coals.

After a scream, the soldiers rolled over on the coals. The strong smell of barbecue, mixed with the pungent smell of hair after being ignited, echoed the screams and wailing.

The whole white horse is burning.

After Yan Liang woke up from the dream, he reacted very quickly.

When he rushed to Long Street, the charcoal on the street hadn't been lit yet...

But the fire has already started, and the whole city is surrounded by the fire, and the flames are soaring into the sky.

Counted!
Yan Liang shouted loudly: "Get out of the city, go out of the city."

Not caring about riding a horse, Yan Liang rushed towards the gate tower almost barefoot.

The feet are getting hotter and hotter, and people who are so hot can hardly stand.The charcoal gradually turned red, and the whole street turned red...

Yan Liang gritted his teeth, endured the pain, and ran desperately.

I don't know where to throw the sword, and as for the soldiers, I don't have time to pay attention to it.

Fortunately, he discovered it early, and arrived at the city gate before the entire long street was completely burned.At this time, under the city gate, the soldiers ran out frantically, and the wailing of father and mother echoed in the air.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way..."

Yan Liang snatched a big knife from a soldier, slashed left and right, and forced a bloody path at the gate of the city.

With a plop, he fell and sat outside the city gate, only to see that the long street behind him had turned into a sea of ​​flames.

The flickering coals are like rolling magma, which is frightening.More than a dozen blisters were burned under his feet, and the pain made him unable to stand still.If it is said that he was only concerned about running for his life just now, so he didn't notice the burn on his foot.At this moment, he rushed out of Baima County, and the pain in his feet made Yan Liang unable to stand at all.He gritted his teeth, stood up with a big knife, and shouted sharply: "Yan Liang is here, sons and daughters quickly approach me."

As soon as the shout came out, the word "closer" lingered in his mouth again, only to hear a series of blares, resounding in the air.

"kill!"

From the darkness, teams of Cao Jun rushed out, swarming with swords and guns in hand.

The leader is a general, with a black horse in his crotch, and a pair of big knives that cut iron like mud in his palms.The two knives flew up and down, and the dark red light of the knives streaked across the air one by one.

Yan Liang's pupils shrank, and an ominous omen suddenly appeared.

"Run!"

He turned around and staggered to leave, but the fire bubbles under his feet made it difficult for him to even stand, so how could he run?
In just two steps, the cannon broke, and his feet were immediately stained red with blood.

A series of screams came from behind, and the sound of horseshoes getting closer...

Yan Liang roared, and turned around to face the enemy with his saber, but saw the black horse passing by him like the wind, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes, and the roar of the general on the horse came from his ear: "Gan Ning is here, Where is Yan Liang?"

Immediately afterwards, Yan Liang's head flew out in a flash.

The moment the head left the neck, Yan Liang wanted to tell the general: I am Yan Liang!
A cavity of hot blood gushed out from the cavity, quickly staining Yan Liang's body red.The headless dead body fell to the ground like a rotten log.

Maybe, Yan Liang would never think of it.

The majestic Hebei Four Court Columns ended up in such an aggrieved death.

He didn't even figure out how the fire in Baima started, and what happened to the people who were killed?
However, at least he knew that the person who killed him was named Gan Ning...

————————————————————————

Many people died without knowing how they died or by whom.

Yan Liang was ordered to rush to the rescue of the white horse this time, and he brought 8000 elite soldiers. It can be said that these [-] people are all the most elite soldiers under Yuan Shao.

But in a big fire, 8000 people died in the sea of ​​flames...

There were those lucky soldiers of Yuan Jun who ran out of the sea of ​​flames, but their luck seemed to end there.

Jia Xu mobilized five hundred archers and blocked them outside the west gate of the city.The soldiers who ran out of the city, before they even knew the direction, were shot into hedgehogs by the arrows and fell to the ground one by one.There was a soldier with high martial arts skills and good skills who rushed to the front of the archers, but was immediately stabbed into a hornet's nest by the spearmen... The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and it had begun to spread to the top of the city.

The soaring flames illuminated the dark night sky red, and even twenty miles away, one could still see clearly...

Jia Xu straddled his horse, his face was flushed red by the firelight from the white horse.

"Retreat!"

"exist."

"After this battle is over, you will work under Cao Youxue, what do you think?"

Jia Xing was taken aback when he heard this, but immediately replied: "I would like to follow my father's orders."

"Ok!"

Jia Xu stopped talking, looked at the flames soaring into the sky, sighed after a long time, turned the horse's head, and left slowly.

Say Lao Tzu is a 'poison man'?
According to me, this Cao Youxue is the real poisoner!
This fire will burn Yuan Shao's heart and liver with pain.It's just that I don't know if that kid can escape safely?
This kid is poisonous enough to the enemy, but he can also be regarded as a ruthless word to himself...
