Chapter 253
"You send people to take care of the grain and grass and the wounded barracks. These two places are the weakest parts of the barracks. Don't let them take advantage of it."

"It was arranged early in the morning, my lord."

At this time, Deputy General Zhao brought King Jing's war horse, Lie Feng.

"My lord, the left deputy general is seriously injured and is still being treated in the camp, so I can't accompany you in battle."

"When I was not around, Vice Admiral Zuo suffered a lot... He must be diagnosed and treated with the best medicine, without any ambiguity."

Seeing that he had been duped, the prince naturally vented his anger on the left deputy general. From the first day of the battle, he was asked to lead the army to lead the battle. After he was injured in the first battle, the prince still refused to give up and insisted on him continuing.

Vice General Zhao has not informed King Jing of these, in order not to distract him before the battle.

"Yes, I understand."

King Jing caressed Gaefeng in front of him, and he didn't see him for a few days. The horse also knew that he missed his master, and he seemed to have lost a lot of weight.

"My lord, there seems to be some movement in the grain and grass department!"

Suddenly, Zhang Shoubei, who was in charge of guarding the grain and grass, sent someone to report.

"Go and have a look."

King Jing got on his horse neatly and walked to the place where the grain and grass were placed.Vice-General Zhao also went along with him.

"My lord, look here."

As soon as he saw King Jing, Zhang Shoubei dragged him to look for suspicious traces on the ground.

I saw an unknown liquid doused around the grain and grass.

Seeing this, Deputy General Zhao stepped forward, squatted down, leaned over, dipped his hand in the liquid on the ground, and brought it to his face to have a look.

"My lord, this is oil...the Beicang Army must have managed to keep it. I guess, they want to burn our food today!"

Hearing this, King Jing frowned and said: "Beicang Kingdom obviously doesn't want to have any more disputes with us. If the food and grass are burned out, we will temporarily leave the city. It will take at least three or four days for new food and grass to replenish the warehouse. "

"My lord, what do you mean, they are delaying time?"

Vice General Zhao stood up and looked at him.

"Yes."

"Why are they procrastinating? Want to send more soldiers to attack us?"

Zhang Shoubei is honest and simple, with a straight temper, and he doesn't think too deeply.

"Then we can't let them succeed! Why are you still here, why don't you wipe the oil off the ground!"

"Hold on."

King Jing raised his hand and waved them away, and only explained to Zhang Shoubei: "The Lord of Beicang Kingdom is not that stupid person, this battle is just entrusted by others, just put on a show, there is no need to be so serious, let Shantou Snow Country has lost too much, and they will inevitably be held accountable in private."

"Since they want to find an opportunity to burn the food and grass, why don't we ask them to do it first. Now, the news of my return will soon reach the capital. If there are no accidents, we will be able to return to the dynasty today."

As King Jing said, although Zhang Shoubei has a little knowledge, he still knows what to do.

"My lord's meaning, I understand. But, should we just watch them burn our food and grass?"

"It's okay, if we lose food and grass, we can gain a word of reason instead."

This time, Zhang Shoubei couldn't understand, but Deputy General Zhao nodded understandingly.

"My lord is wise and thoughtful."

King Jing smiled indifferently, and led everyone away from the grain and grass stronghold.

"What the hell does this mean..."

Only Zhang Defen, who was a little confused, was left behind.

After a while, the people from Beicang Kingdom really ran over on tiptoe. They were wearing the same clothes as the Shanxue Army.

Although Zhang Shoubei is a bit brainy and not enlightened, he can clearly recognize everyone under him, and he can say his name accurately.

Therefore, he saw through the two people who sneaked in in front of him early in the morning. He just remembered King Jing's order before, so he didn't expose them.

"Ahem, I heard that there is some movement over there, you guys, and you, go over there with me to have a look..."

Zhang Shoubei led everyone away clumsily, so as to give the two people room to commit crimes.

The people who guarded the food and grass also understood, and followed Zhang Shoubei to the south.

"Hey, let's go, let's do it!"

"Wait, I feel something is wrong."

Another person waved his hand and said.

"What's wrong?"

"Our people are obviously in the east, why did they go south?"

In addition to the two of them, there are also those who are in charge of the east and west, causing a little disturbance in the east, so as to attract the Shanxue army to go to the east to check.

"What's the matter, maybe it's not easy to start in the east, so I changed the place!"

"Too……"

The man was moved by his words.

"Hurry up, if you don't do anything, they will come back!"

As he said that, the man took down the torch in front of the camp, took out a flint from his body, and lit it around the food and grass with the torch.

Seeing that he had made a move, the other person didn't hesitate anymore, lit a torch, and lit another stack of grain and grass as well.

When all the food and grass were on fire, the two threw down the torches and fled back along the road they had planned before.

Before leaving, the suspicious person looked back.

"It's really strange, it's so full of flames, why don't you see anyone coming?"

"Oh, you're still nagging! It's broad daylight, maybe they didn't see it, if you don't leave, they will really come over, and you'll be happy to catch you!"

Pushed and shoved by their companions, the two escaped from the enemy camp so smoothly.

As soon as the two of them left on their front feet, Zhang Bing's men turned back on their back feet. The soldiers were all carrying buckets in their hands, and they were already ready to put out the fire.

"My lord, everything is done."

"Okay. Order to go down, send troops, and beat the drums!"

After being aggrieved for so many days, he was almost sent back to his hometown by Beicang Kingdom.

When King Jing came, they could finally feel proud and they were caught off guard.

On the other side, Xuanyuanhong's heart skipped a beat when he heard the sound of war drums beating outside.

He immediately called General Yelu who was beside him and asked, "What's going on outside, go and see!"

"My lord, what happened to the Shanxue Army today, suddenly there are seeds, and we didn't even beat the drums, but they provoked us first!"

General Yelu didn't know anything about the events behind this battle, and he thought that his army suddenly became invincible, even a big country like Shanxue Kingdom could hardly match it.

"Don't make mistakes, if this is the case, don't say it again!"

Xuanyuanhong has always been cautious, never uttered wild words, and looked at no one in his eyes.

"Why is the lord still so afraid of them? Right now there is no King Jing, only a timid prince, what are we afraid of them!"

General Yelu was somewhat similar to Zhang Shoubei, they were both rough people, and they couldn't help but understand the many considerations in Xuanyuanhong's mind.
