The last three kingdoms

Chapter 890 As Expected
In the Shu army's heavy camp, there are piles of heavy vehicles, and the top of each vehicle is full of cloth bags. Since they are temporarily stationed, these grains are not unloaded from the heavy vehicles, just for the sake of tomorrow. Marching is more convenient.

At the gate of the camp, there were only a few guards standing on the ground, other than that, no other Shu soldiers were seen, probably hiding in the camp and sleeping well.

Zhao Gu secretly rejoiced, and said in his heart: "It's really God helping me!"

Immediately ordered the Huns to rush over with all their strength and captured the supply camp.

Immediately after the Xiongnu soldiers were ordered, they showed their true colors, screaming, and rushed towards the Shu army camp ferociously.

Those Shu soldiers who guarded the camp were drowsy at first, but suddenly they heard the sound of killing. When they looked closely, it turned out that it was the Huns who rushed over with their teeth and claws. They panicked and ran away. At the same time, a warning sound was issued.

The Shu army in the camp ran out of the big tent. Seeing the menacing Xiongnu army, they had no intention of fighting at all, and they all turned into headless flies and fled in all directions.

Zhao Gu couldn't help but burst out laughing, everyone said that the Shu army had strict military discipline and was brave in fighting, and today when the catastrophe was imminent, they were still in chaos, not to mention fighting, there was no decent resistance at all.

However, Zhao Gu has no interest in chasing and killing these remnants and defeated soldiers. His purpose of attacking the camp this time is these baggage carts and the grain and grass piled on them. After the Shu army scattered and fled, these baggage carts naturally fell In the hands of the Huns.

Cars are connected to cars, one after another, and you can't see the end at a glance. It stands to reason that the transportation of grain and grass in the convoy needs heavy protection. After attacking the Shu army's heavy camp, it was ridiculous that Liu Qin still looked forward and backward, and hesitated. It seemed that he was too cautious. It turns out that the Shu people are not as powerful as imagined. Even tigers doze off sometimes.

With so many grain carts, it is simply not realistic to bring them back to Baodu Mountain, not to mention that the Xiongnu army on Baodu Mountain is not short of food at all, so there is no need for Zhao Gu to bring these grains back.What's more, the loss of the supply battalion will inevitably alarm other troops of the Shu army. Once the main force of the Shu army returns, the food and grass are likely to be lost again.

Therefore, Zhao Gu had no intention of refusing the grain and grass as his own at all. He immediately ordered the Xiongnu soldiers to set fire everywhere and burn all the grain carts.

So much food and grass must be the lifeblood of the Shu army. If these food and grass are destroyed, what will happen to the Shu army that has entered the Jizhong Plain? Zhao Gu can clearly know without thinking about it. The lifeline is in his own hands, and Zhao Gu gets excited just thinking about it.

The Xiongnu soldiers over there have already started to ignite the grain carts. It stands to reason that the grain and grass are inflammable. As long as they are ignited, they can be burned quickly. However, after the Huns lit the cloth bags, the fire did not start. is gradually extinguished.

A Xiongnu soldier was curious and poked the grain bags with a knife and gun, only to find that sand flowed out of the bag instead of rice. The Huns were shocked and reported it to Zhao Gu immediately.

"Reporting to General Zhao, I just discovered that the grain bag is not grain but sand."

"What?" Zhao Gu's expression changed suddenly, and with the knife in his hand, he chopped down at the nearest grain bag. Sure enough, what flowed out of the grain bag was not yellow corn but white sand.

Zhao Gu's face was ashen, and he took a knife to chop several grain bags in a row. Without exception, the grain bags were filled with white sand, which made the Huns around them dumbfounded.

Counted!
No matter how stupid Zhao Gu was, he understood the situation. It turned out that the Shu army's deliberate action to take down the supply camp so smoothly was specifically to lure the Huns into being fooled. It seems that he was still careless.

"Quickly evacuate!"

Just after Zhao Gu gave the order to retreat, he suddenly heard shouts of killing, and a Shu army rushed into the formation suddenly. He lay in ambush on the left side of the supply camp. When the Huns entered the camp, he ignored him. When the Huns wanted to run away, he immediately led his army out, cutting off Zhao Gu's way back.

The ambush battle this time had been expected by Liu Yin. The Shu army was heading east. The Huns stationed on Baodu Mountain would definitely not be reconciled to such a failure. Instead, they would send troops to attack. If they were asked to choose their targets, the first choice would be the supply battalion. Although the supply battalion was stationed with soldiers and horses, its strength was definitely inferior to that of the combat troops. Zhao Gu certainly didn't have the courage to provoke the powerful troops of the Shu army. In addition to food and grass, the battalion escorted other military supplies, which were all extremely important things, so Liu Yin judged that it would be fine if the Xiongnu did not come out. Once they appeared, they would definitely point directly at the supply camp.

So Liu Yin ordered people to drop all the grain and grass in the supply camp, put them into Baisha, and approach Baodu Mountain in a mighty way, putting on a big fanfare and a completely unprepared look, waiting for the Huns to take the bait.At the same time, Liu Yin ambushed the Tiger Army, Yong'an Army, and Wudang Flying Army around the supply camp. Everything was ready, just waiting for the opportunity to come.

Sure enough, Liu Yin didn't expect that, the Huns were anxious, and sent another team to attack the camp of the Shu army. It seems that these guys were really brave and foolish, and they fell for the bait easily.

The side tiger infantry and Yong'an army had already besieged from two directions, surrounding Zhao Gu and his subordinates at the core. Zhao Gu rushed from left to right, but faced with the heavy battle formation of the Shu army, he wanted to break through the encirclement and leave. How difficult it is.

However, Zhao Gu has not lost all confidence. After all, he only brought a part of the troops with him, and some of them are on the top of the mountain. If Liu Qin knows his current situation, he will definitely send troops to rescue him.

Zhao Gu was desperately leading the army to fight. Such a big movement at the bottom of the mountain would definitely alarm the Hun soldiers on the mountain. As long as Liu Qin heard the movement, he would naturally understand what was going on, so Zhao Gu still had hope. .

In the melee, the Huns were outnumbered and suffered numerous casualties. Zhao Gu rushed left and right, but was unable to break out of the encirclement. Finally, he understood that it was impossible to kill them only by relying on his own strength. He raised his head and looked up at the Huns. Looking at the dark mountain top, hoping that Liu Qin would send troops down sooner.

But Zhao Gu couldn't see that on that zigzag path, an army was running like flying, advancing rapidly towards the top of the mountain...
