Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 221 Burning Wuchao (2)

"Chunyu Qiong!" Yuan Shao agreed with Feng Ji's proposal, looked at Chunyu Qiong and said.

"The last general is here!" Chunyu Qiong hurried out of the line, cupped his hands and bowed, secretly happy in his heart, ever since he saw the power of Li Song's generals, Chunyu Qiong never wanted to confront Li Song head-on.

This time, being sent by Yuan Shao to guard the food and grass in the rear, he could stay in the rear without facing the enemy directly, and wait for the war to subside.

The front line is too dangerous, and there is no safety in the rear. At this time, Chunyu Qiong can't wait to go to Wuchao immediately.

"You can order 40 soldiers and horses to escort the remaining food and grass to Wuchao, [-] miles behind the camp. You have to guard these food and grass carefully. This is a matter of life and death for our army." Yuan Shao said.

"Please don't worry, my lord! People are alive, people are dead and food is destroyed. If you want to move food and grass, you have to step over me, Chunyu Qiong. As long as I am here, the enemy will never think about using food and grass." Chunyu Qiong patted his chest. Guaranteed.

"Remember one thing, even if you die, you must ensure the safety of food and grass, do you understand!" Yuan Shao pointed at Chunyu Qiong.

"No! Please don't worry, my lord! Even if I, Chunyuqiong, die, the food and grass will be unharmed." Chunyuqiong said.

"En! You can get ready and set off for Wuchao right away." Yuan Shao was very satisfied, and waved Chunyu Qiong to retreat, and Chunyu Qiong bowed and retreated.

"My lord!" Ju Shou came out, bowed to Yuan Shao and said, "With Chunyu Qiong alone, I am afraid that he will inevitably be attacked by the enemy army. If there is a loss of food and grass at that time, our army will definitely be in chaos and morale will be low."

"If the enemy takes the opportunity to launch an attack, our army will definitely be defeated. Just in case, I suggest that General Jiang Qi lead an army to reinforce General Chunyuqiong."

"Come to guard Wuchao's flanks and prevent Li Songjun from plagiarizing. In this way, nothing will go wrong."

Yuan Shao snorted coldly after hearing this, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Jiang Qi has a loss in guarding food and grass, how can he be allowed to guard Wuchao's flanks? Besides, I know Chunyu Qiong's strength, with his [-] soldiers and horses , enough to keep Wuchao, you don’t have to worry about it.”

Yuan Shao directly rejected Jushou's suggestion, not only because of Jiang Qi's fault, but also because of his trust in Chunyuqiong. Compared to the time when they were ministers in the same palace, Chunyuqiong still has some abilities.

Seeing that Yuan Shao firmly rejected his proposal, he had no choice but to retreat to his seat, and Xu You took the opportunity to come out to show his presence.

"My lord! As far as I know, Li Song is fighting with all his strength. At this time, Xuchang doesn't have many soldiers. Li Song's rear must be empty in Xuchang."

"It's better to send fine cavalry and light armor to attack Xuchang. We will definitely be able to take Xuchang, and then we can please the emperor and attack the traitor Li Song in the name of the emperor."

"In this way, our army can capture Li Song alive. Even if we can't capture him alive, we can defeat him. My lord, don't miss this opportunity! Don't miss this opportunity."

"Huh!" Yuan Shao snorted coldly after hearing this, and reprimanded Xu You: "Xu You, Xu You! I thought you were a smart person, but who would have thought that you would be so stupid to welcome the Son of Heaven over here? Wouldn't I have to be restrained by the Son of Heaven... ..."

"You asked me to tell you what's good about you, useless things, and bad ideas. This is the end of today's discussion, and everyone has dispersed."

After Yuan Shao finished speaking, he got up and left without even looking at Xu You.

Yuan Shao scolded Xu You all the time, and Xu You sprayed his head with bloody scolding. He originally wanted to show off, but who would have thought that he would get a scolding in exchange, and Xu You felt uncomfortable.

"Pooh!" Xu You waited for Yuan Shao to disappear, then poohed on the ground, flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

"Report to the Prime Minister! According to the report from the spies! In Wuchao, something new has been discovered!" A soldier knelt down on one knee in front of Li Song.

"Oh! What's going on? But what happened to Yuan Shao's army?" Li Song asked, feeling vaguely in his heart that Yuan Shao will definitely store food and grass in Wuchao this time. After all, there are still five years left in this mission. sky.

"Spy to report! General Yuan Shao Chunyu Qiong led [-] troops to Wuchao, and seemed to be escorting a batch of supplies to Wuchao. After Chunyuqiong arrived at Wuchao, he ordered the construction of fortifications." The soldiers continued to report.

"Okay! Got it! You step back first, and go to bring Xue Rengui and other generals here to discuss matters." Li Song was overjoyed after hearing this. This can be positive that the supplies Chunyu Qiong escorted are food, grass and luggage, which is an important part of the burning of Wuchao. ring.

"No!" The soldier clasped his fists in salute, got up and retreated, and after a while, the soldier brought Xue Rengui and others to Li Song.

"I've seen the prime minister!" Everyone bowed their hands and saluted.

"You don't have to be polite! Sit!" Li Song said, and after everyone was seated, Li Song continued: "I just received information on Yuan Shaojun's latest movements!"

"Yuan Shao hoarded all the food, grass and supplies in one place, and this place is Wuchao."

"Now our task is to destroy Yuan Shao's last food and grass. I decided to lead my troops to Wuchao and burn Yuan Shao's army food and grass stored in Wuchao."

"Prime Minister! Yuan Shao's rations were attacked by our army once, and this time we will definitely send heavy troops to defend on the road leading to Wuchao. It may not be easy to destroy the enemy's rations." Xue Xiantu stood up and said.

Li Song smiled slightly, and instead of answering Xue Xiantu's question, he looked at Xue Rengui, "Rengui! What do you think our army should do if we copy Wuchao?"

Xue Rengui thought for a while, then bowed his hands and saluted: "Prime Minister! Our army can wait until night falls, dress up as Yuan Shaojun, carry firewood, wear a horse tied to the mouth, and carry the banner of Yuan Shaojun."

"Take a small road and march quickly. If you meet Yuan Shaojun, tell us that Yuan Shao asked us to go to Wuchao to strengthen the defense of food and grass."

"It would be great if we had Yuan Shao's token. In this way, we can even deceive the Yuan Shaojun we met along the way." As soon as Xue Rengui finished speaking, Zhou Qing stood up and added.

Li Yuanba was drowsy when he heard it, and it was okay to ask him to charge forward, but if he asked him to make suggestions, he would just drive the ducks to the shelves.

After hearing this, Li Song took out a token from his pocket, waved it in front of everyone and said, "Look, what is this?"

Everyone widened their eyes and looked at the token in Li Song's hand, only to see that there was a word Yuan on the front of the token, and a word order on the back, as well as the lines on the side of the token, which showed that this was Yuan Shao's token.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. They really didn't know when and where Li Song got the token, or Li Song forged it.

What they didn't know was that the token in Li Song's hand was the real thing at a fair price. It was originally a token given to Gao Lan by Yuan Shao. Li Song.

It's just that I didn't expect that this token will finally play its role at this time.
