The battle was over, and the battle was over.

That day, Chen Dong, the Jinyiwei pacification envoy in Yuquan City, received an order from Li Yichen himself, mobilizing the Jinyiwei in the city to burn down the Yuquan City granary at all costs.

Chen Dong was in his room at this time, looking at the topographic map of Yuquan City.

There are two large granaries in Yuquan City, one in the west and one in the east. The granary in the east has the largest grain reserves, with 1.5 million shi. The granary in the west also has 600,000 shi of grain reserves.

Such a large amount of grain reserves can be used by the 20,000 defenders in the city for several years.

Under Wei Dongsheng's arrangement, both granaries were heavily guarded. However, now that the Qin army was besieging the city, there were only 500 soldiers guarding the granary in the east of the city, and less than 200 people guarding the granary in the west of the city.

There are now 300 elite Jinyiwei in Yuquan City, all of whom are at the early stage of Wusheng Realm. It seems easy to capture and burn the granary, but how to avoid the patrolling army in the city and escape after burning the granary is a problem.

Fortunately, Jinyiwei have infiltrated the Mozhou Army, and some of them have been transferred to guard the granary in the east of the city after bribing the generals of the Mozhou Army with silver.

Chen Dong spent a whole day making detailed plans and arrangements, and the 300 Jinyiwei started to work like a sophisticated machine on the second night.

At the sentry post outside the granary in the east of the city, a young man walked into the yard where the garrison troops were stationed, carrying a few jars of good wine in his left hand and some snacks such as roast chicken in his right hand.

The young man's name was Li Zhuang. He was a captain of the Jinyiwei under Chen Dong. The Jinyiwei formed a squad of 100 people. Li Zhuang was transferred to the granary garrison five days ago. Because he was generous and good at getting along with people, Li Zhuang quickly got a position as a deputy commander.

Seeing Li Zhuang walking in with wine and food, the soldiers on duty in the yard greeted him one after another.

"Deputy Commander Li, what good day is today? Why did you buy so many good wines and dishes?"

"Yes, are you going to treat the brothers to a drink?"

Li Zhuang showed a bright smile on his face: "Brothers have worked hard recently. I specially bought some wine and dishes from Zuixianlou. Please eat some meat."

The soldiers showed their joy. It was very tiring to be on duty here in the middle of the night. If they could drink a few sips of good wine and eat some meat dishes, it would be a real enjoyment.

"Deputy Commander Li is a generous man. He often buys wine and food to invite brothers to drink and eat meat together."

"Deputy Commander, this amount of wine and food is not enough. We have hundreds of brothers here."

Li Zhuang laughed and scolded: "Who am I? Can I miss a sip of good wine from you? Don't worry, there is enough wine and meat today. I have sent people to buy a lot of wine and food, which will be delivered later. What I have in my hand is to share with the commander. You greedy guys, wait."

As Li Zhuang spoke, he carried the wine and food in his hand through the yard and came to the door of Commander Wang Gui. He said: "Commander, I am Li Zhuang. I just bought some good wine and food. I want to invite you to drink a cup together."

"Come in."

Li Zhuang pushed open the door He walked in, put the food and wine on the table, and said to the commander Wang Gui who was reading a book: "Commander, come and enjoy the food and wine. This is what I ordered from Zuixianlou."

Wang Gui put down the book and frowned: "Now is a time of trouble. The Qin army is approaching, and we are guarding an important grain and grass area. If we drink and have fun, and someone reports to the governor, we will be in trouble."

Li Zhuang said with a flattering look: "What are you talking about, commander? We are all brothers of the Mozhou Army. How can we report to the governor? Besides, I have prepared food and wine for the brothers outside. Everyone has a share."

Wang Gui nodded and walked up to sit at the table.

Li Zhuang hurriedly set up the bowls and chopsticks, and first stood aside to fill a glass of wine for Wang Gui.

Wang Gui took a look at the dishes on the table, sniffed the wine in the glass, and showed satisfaction on his face. He slowly said: "Zuixian wine from Zuixianlou, this wine is not cheap, you are thoughtful."

Li Zhuang smiled and said: "To invite the commander to drink, of course we have to prepare the best wine."

After drinking a glass of wine, Wang Gui shouted that he was very happy and asked Li Zhuang to sit down and enjoy it together. The two of them toasted each other and drank enthusiastically.

At this moment, outside the courtyard, four or five Jinyiwei who had mixed into the garrison army pushed two carts full of carts into the courtyard.

On the cart were two roasted whole lambs weighing 70 to 80 kilograms, as well as dozens of roasted chickens and roasted ducks.

The leader, Wang Kun, called out loudly: "Brothers, come and drink. This is the wine and food that Deputy Commander Li prepared for us brothers. If you come too late, there will be no more."

The soldiers on duty were drooling over the fragrant wine and food, and soon gathered around to help several people unload the wine and food on the cart to the middle of the courtyard.

Wang Kun said: "Go and call the brothers of the other guard teams to eat some wine and meat. We can't just enjoy it."

Soon, the 500 soldiers of the entire garrison gathered in the courtyard. Li Zhuang specially prepared hundreds of jars of wine and water. These wines were all added with ingredients. Even if there were people who didn't drink, a lot of knockout drugs were added to the meat. Under the cover of the meat fragrance, it was impossible to detect.

Everyone gathered together, drinking and eating meat enthusiastically. Several Jinyiwei, led by Wang Kun, kept urging people to drink, and kept looking around to ensure that everyone drank or ate meat.

Everyone was not on guard. Li Zhuang had spent a lot of money to treat the guards to drinking for many days, so it was not abrupt at all.

Soon, under the effect of the knockout drug in the wine, soldiers kept falling drunk on the ground, motionless, and the other soldiers were not surprised, but laughed at their companions' alcohol tolerance.

Not long after, five hundred soldiers fell to the ground without exception. Several Jinyiwei checked around very carefully. After checking the number of people to confirm that there were no fish that slipped through the net, they nodded to each other, pushed in a large amount of kerosene prepared in advance with a cart, and evenly sprinkled it in the granary.

At this time, in the room, the commander Wang Gui began to notice something wrong. After all, he had the strength of the late martial arts realm, and his strong physique had some resistance to knockout drugs.

After drinking half a jar of wine, Wang Gui felt a little dizzy. Wang Gui, who could be the commander of 500 people, was not a stupid person. He immediately realized that there was something wrong with the wine. He struggled to stand up and stared at Li Zhuang and said, "You...you put drugs in the wine. Who are you?"

Li Zhuang showed a gloomy look on his face and laughed, "I am a member of the Qin army, a Jinyiwei. Since the commander has eaten and drunk enough, let's go on the road and die a full ghost on the road to the underworld."
