Chapter 373
That night, Chen Ji ordered his soldiers to have a full meal, and then led the team to Dingshan.

As for Shangcai, it was handed over to Li Ji.

The moon was dark and the wind was high, Chen Ji and his men marched hurriedly without a single stop, with their horses and feet bound.

Not long after, there was a sound of horseshoes, and Chen Ji immediately sent an order to stop the advance. After a while, a man rode his horse and came.

It turned out to be a scout who went to explore the way, Chen Ji asked quickly: "How is the situation ahead?"

The scout got off his horse, clasped his fists and said, "Five miles ahead, we can find the local food delivery team."

"So it is!" Chen Ji nodded, it seems that this time, Zhao Qian really underestimated himself.

"How about the grain transport guards?" Chen Ji asked again.

The scout soldier replied: "There are two guards in each of the four directions, and there are dozens of patrols patrolling back and forth, and the other sergeants are sleeping near the grain cart."

Chen Ji was very happy. It seemed that he would succeed tonight, and he had to take back all the food and grass that had been sporadically looted by Zhao Qian before.

"The whole army has it, speed up, and defeat the food protection team with lightning speed!" Chen Ji passed the order down, and the army began to move again.

Not long after, the light and shadow of the torch came into Chen Ji's eyes, and Chen Ji knew that the destination had been reached.

After signaling the army to stop, Chen Ji stretched his neck to look, and at a glance, the situation was exactly as the scouts said.

The guards were loose, there was no vigilance, and the camps were not even set up. The sergeants relied on each other to rest on the spot.

Chen Ji snorted coldly, and couldn't help slandering Zhao Qian. All the princes in the world said that Zhao Qian was good at leading troops and had strict military discipline. Now it seems that it is nothing more than that.

Presumably, those who do good things spread rumors and spread rumors, saying that Zhao Qian's biography is miraculous, but in fact he is just an ordinary person.

It must have been Lei Bo's carelessness, and Zhao Qian's tricks led to the annihilation of the entire army. He, Chen Ji, has always been cautious and will not be used by Zhao Qian.

Thinking that the lord Yuan Shu has not won a victory since the war with Zhao Qian, and tonight is his first victory for Yuan Shu, and this credit should be attributed to him, Chen Ji.

After observing for a while, he found that the sergeant of the food transport team hadn't noticed the enemy approaching at all. Chen Ji sneered, suddenly took the reins of the horse, and shouted loudly: "Kill!"

With an order, the soldiers behind Chen Ji shouted loudly and rushed towards the grain carts one after another, while the soldiers escorting the grain carts suddenly woke up, seeing a large army coming to attack, they all took up weapons to resist.

However, no matter how consciously or carelessly these soldiers resisted Chen Ji's army, the line of defense collapsed after a while.

However, just when Chen Ji wanted to start a killing spree to vent his suffocation, the soldiers guarding the grain fell to their knees and begged for mercy.

"General Chen, I know the general, I beg the general to spare his life!"

"Forgive me, General, we are all Huaiyang sergeants who were coerced by Zhao Qian."

"General, I am the captain under General Lei Bo's tent. We met in Shouchun."

Chen Ji was stunned for a moment, seeing this situation, he finally understood that Ganqing's team was Lei Bo's surrendered army, no wonder the military discipline was lax, and he broke it so easily.

Furthermore, listening to the accents of these people, it is indeed in the Huaiyang area, which cannot be mistaken.

"It should be a capital offense for you to surrender to the enemy, but this general is a benevolent and righteous gentleman. In the future, you will serve under my command and you will have to fight the enemy bravely and make meritorious deeds. Do you hear me?" Chen Jihe asked.

"Thank you General for your life, thank you General for your life!"

Chen Ji nodded, ignored them, but shouted to his soldiers: "Pack up the food and grass, and go back to the city. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time!"

As soon as the words fell, a sergeant shouted: "General, no, we have been tricked, these are not food at all!"
