Rampage through the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 182 Burning Tao Ying
When Chen Deng heard that Tao Ying was going to pursue Zhang De, he immediately persuaded him, "Second Young Master, absolutely not. Zhang De withdrew overnight. I'm afraid something happened to Qingzhou's old nest, so Zhang De's retreat and march must be extremely fast. Now A whole day has passed, if the Second Young Master wants to catch up with Zhang De, it may be very difficult, and there is a saying in the art of war that "the poor should not chase after". Besides, the Second Young Master must be exhausted after marching for days, I think it is better to go to the city first and have a rest?"

Tao Ying gave Chen Deng a disgusted look, and Tao Ying really didn't like Chen Deng in his heart.The Chen family is a big family in Xuzhou, with countless industries in Xiapi City, and their influence is even greater than that of Governor Tao Qian.Originally, Tao Ying should be regarded as the master who ran rampant in Xiapi City, but because of the existence of the Chen family, he couldn't do it anymore.The power of the Chen family, in Xiapi city, even Tao Qian has to give up by three points.

For many years, Tao Ying had hoped to inherit the position of governor of Xuzhou, so Tao Ying had asked for help from the Chen family, but Chen Gui, the old man of the Chen family, was always lukewarm towards him.The other aristocratic families did not give much support to Tao Ying because the Chen family did not express their views.Therefore, Tao Ying didn't have any good feelings for the Chen family.

Seeing Chen Deng persuading him now, Tao Ying was even more displeased. Now that Tao Ying had soldiers in his hands, he felt quite successful, so he snorted coldly and said, "Master Chen, if you want to chase or not, you have to try." Try, Mr. Chen, don't bother, let's go!" He said and ran towards Donghai County in the northeast with his people.

Chen Deng looked at Tao Ying's back, and shook his head helplessly. This Tao Ying is really not a person who can achieve great things. Now that he has gained power, he has shown his impatience with him. If he becomes the governor of Xuzhou, Xuzhou will still Not being stabbed by him turned the sky upside down.

On the other side, Zhang Kai said to Tao Ying, "Second Young Master, although that Chen Deng is hateful, everything he said is true. Zhang De obviously retreated in a hurry. If we keep chasing him like this, I'm afraid it will be really difficult to catch up with Zhang De." Germany."

Tao Ying didn't even look at Zhang Kai, and said in a muffled voice, "Of course I know we won't be able to catch up with Zhang De. I supported Pengcheng this time in the hope that I could raise my eyebrows in front of my father, but now I don't even see the shadow of the enemy. If I go back, how can I hold my head up in front of my father, that's why I'm going to chase, even if we can't catch up, let's kill some untouchables on the way back, and just hand over the beheaded Zhang Dejun to my father..."

……

"Military division, come to report on the horse, Tao Ying's reinforcements did not enter Pengcheng, but chased here, and now it is only thirty miles away from here!" Guan Hai said to Chen Gong.

Chen Gong nodded.The reason why I asked Zhang De for troops was to stop Chen Deng's pursuit.But after observing Chen Deng defending the city for so many days, Chen Gong already had some understanding of Chen Deng. This Chen Deng was impeccable and difficult to deal with. Presumably Chen Deng would not come to chase him.

But Chen Gong decided to take a gamble. What Chen Gong gambled was that Pengcheng would send people to pursue him. Once Pengcheng sent people to pursue him, Chen Gong was sure that he would be able to eat the pursuers. But if Pengcheng did not send people to pursue him, Chen Gong would have nothing to lose. .Unexpectedly, Chen Gong won the bet this time, and this time, [-] pursuers came all at once.

It is not easy to use 1 people to deal with 2 people, but Chen Gong is always ready.

……

The terrain around Mawangpo is not complicated. There are hills on the left and right sides of Mawangpo, but they are not very high.The nearby land is not very fertile, coupled with the Yellow Turban Rebellion, there are few people living nearby, resulting in overgrown weeds on Mawangpo.Now is the golden autumn season, making Mawangpo a withered yellow.

Tao Ying led an army of [-] troops into Mawangpo. Originally, Tao Ying wanted to rush from Xiapi to Pengcheng as soon as possible, so he didn't take much rest on the way from Xiapi to Pengcheng. Leading people to pursue Zhang De, the soldiers were even more exhausted.

Tao Ying thought that Zhang De withdrew in such a hurry, he must have marched very fast, and he couldn't easily catch up with Zhang De, so he was careless along the way and didn't take too many precautions. There was no sign of Zhang Dejun at all.

The army marched into Mawangpo mightily. Tao Ying was sitting on the horse thinking about it. After chasing for a long distance, he still didn't see half of Zhang Dejun. It seems that Zhang De has indeed gone far. , it's time to find a place to kill some untouchables and go back to claim credit.

At this moment, Tao Ying heard the sound of a gong in front of him, and saw more than a hundred people rushing out, all of them holding knives and covering their heads, and the leader shouted: "Grandfather Ma Wangye is here, the people ahead stay behind." Buy road money!"

When Tao Ying heard it, he was so overjoyed.There are so many people these days, and now there are still bandits with more than a hundred people to challenge the [-] army. Could it be that these people are poor and crazy?But these people came at the right time, and I was worried that no one would take them back to claim credit, so these robbers came to my door.Tao Ying waved his hand, and the army rushed towards the robbers.

Seeing the army rushing towards him, the bandit leader yelled, and took the lead to run away, while Tao Ying's army did not hesitate at all, and directly chased after him.Tao Ying took the lead and ran at the front, followed by a long queue of [-] troops.

In the distance, Chen Gong watched Tao Ying's army rushing over, with a strange smile on his face.

Tao Ying was chasing after him, and suddenly found several rows of taxis in front of him in the middle of the road. Tao Ying sent people to check, and found that the carts were bundles of freshly harvested wheat.Tao Ying was stunned for a moment, thinking that this must be the grain that Zhang De snatched up a few days ago, it seems that Zhang De left in a hurry and hadn't had time to take these things away.If these things were pulled back, it would be a great achievement to say that they were seized luggage. Thinking of this, Tao Ying immediately ordered people to pull those carts.

The soldiers rushed forward to snatch the vehicles. A soldier accidentally overturned a grain vehicle to the ground. The grain on the vehicle was overturned to the ground immediately, and a strong smell came out.

Why do these grains have a strange smell?Tao Ying suddenly discovered that it was the smell of fire oil.In addition to grain, these grain carts also have kerosene!An ominous premonition surged into Tao Ying's heart. Tao Ying looked around, and saw that there were overgrown weeds, some of which were as tall as half a person.Tao Ying immediately realized that he had been fooled, the enemy was going to attack with fire!
Seeing his soldiers still robbing grain trucks, Tao Ying shouted: "Quick retreat!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a rocket gliding in front of him, shouting and killing sounded everywhere, and saw countless rockets flying straight towards him, and as soon as the rocket landed, it immediately ignited the surrounding weeds.In an instant, flames burst out everywhere, and the surroundings suddenly turned into a sea of ​​flames.

The soldiers in Xuzhou were in chaos at this time, and everyone was avoiding the fire, but the whole Mawangpo was burned, so there was no place to hide.Tao Ying saw that the general situation was over, so he couldn't do much, so he immediately retreated to the back.When the soldiers saw the general fleeing, they also fled in all directions, and the Xuzhou soldiers became a mess.

When Tao Ying tried his best to escape from the sea of ​​flames, there were only a hundred men and horses left around him, Tao Ying secretly sighed in his heart, he didn't expect that the whole army was wiped out today, how can he explain to his father when he goes back!
