Three Kingdoms Simulator: This Ma Su is too stable

Chapter 248
In fact, Ma Di didn't want to use fire attack, because most of Wu Jun's county soldiers were natives of Jiaozhou, and their methods were more gentle, which made it easier to buy people's hearts after winning the city.

What's more, the use of lethal methods such as fire attack in war is still too cruel for people of this era.

However, the families of the two bandits were really poor.

Not only are there no equipment such as horses, armor, bows and arrows, but even weapons such as swords, there are only about 500 pieces, one for two people on average.Moreover, these weapons are all defective products that do not meet the army's specifications.

This kind of equipment is simply unable to collide head-on with the regular Wu army with horses, armor, and sophisticated standard weapons.

So we can only attack with fire.

Fortunately, there were not many people from Wu Jun this time, only about [-] people.

Soon, Lu Yin led five hundred soldiers and rushed into Pigu. After walking not far, he looked up at the narrow terrain around him, focused his ears, and found that the surroundings were surprisingly quiet, not even the sound of birds singing. , suddenly sucked in a breath of cold air, gushing out an ominous premonition.

"Retreat, retreat quickly!"

Lu Yin could almost conclude that he had been ambushed.

Bandits will use tricks, who would have thought of this?

As soon as Lu Yin's order was given here, hundreds of figures protruded from the top of the hillside on both sides.

"set fire!"

Almost instantly, the exits on both sides of Pigu were blocked by burning fireballs, and at the same time bundles of ignited inflammable materials rolled down the hillside.

The shocked Wu soldiers could only gather together and hide in a few isolated positions such as the center and corner of Pigu, and used their weapons to divert the fireball to avoid being engulfed by the fire.

But these moves were in vain.

When a fire occurs in a confined area, the ubiquitous thick smoke is the deadliest weapon.

Because the "bandits" did not have bows, arrows, boulders and other auxiliary means of attack, when the fire ignited, Wu Jun had no casualties for the time being.

But under the approach of the fire, they are only lingering.

The next question is how to quickly disintegrate Wu Jun's fighting spirit and wipe out Wu Jun's remaining defense forces in Yulin County.In order to achieve this goal, Lu Yin must be subdued or killed, so that the military and political system of Yulin County will fall into a situation without a leader.

Seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, Ma Di raised his hand to stop his followers from throwing flammable objects into the valley, and waved to Yang Wanwan.

Yang Wanwan put a trumpet-shaped wooden loudspeaker to his mouth, and shouted down: "Lu Yin, if you are willing to kill yourself on the spot, I will let down the rope and spare your soldiers not to die!"

As soon as this remark came out, the five hundred Wu soldiers trapped in the valley were in an uproar, and they all looked at Lu Yin with inexplicable meaning in their eyes.

It can be seen that this proposal was approved by the majority of soldiers.As Lu Yin himself felt, in this extreme situation, etiquette, morality, military laws and regulations have no binding force, and the soldiers don't care about the life and death of him, the prefect, they only care about their own lives .

Faced with a pair of eyes eager to live, Lu Yin knew that he had no choice. Between cutting himself decently and being chopped into pieces by the soldiers, he chose to be decent.

Lu Yin looked up to the sky with a long sigh, silently raised his saber, put it on his neck, and cut it off resolutely.

Before he died, he saw ropes hanging down from places that had not been hit by the fire, and Wu soldiers dropped their weapons one after another and climbed up the rock...

An hour later, the fire that lost its fuel was slowly extinguished.

In the end, [-] Wu soldiers survived the fire, and the rest died in the sea of ​​fire.

The weapons scattered all over the place were collected by the bandit army. Four hundred Wu army prisoners were also stripped half naked, their arms were tied behind their backs, and they were scattered and detained in several cowsheds.

Ma Su ordered the gangsters under his command to put on Wu Jun's costumes, and his eyes swept over the faces of the four generals one by one.

"This time the city is captured, no failure is allowed, only success is allowed, who is willing to lead the army?"

"General, the last general is willing to go!" Li Sheng was the first to stand up. Although he was the first to express his opinion, he didn't particularly want to go because the soldiers in this group were not very good at fighting.And this time to steal the city, there is a high probability that they will go through a bloody battle.

But even so, he couldn't leave the task to the people behind, especially Yang Wanwan.

Originally, when they first came to Jiaozhou, all four of them were silver lieutenants, but now Yang Wanwan is already a gold lieutenant.

Gold lieutenant general means higher salary and higher authority.

He, Li Sheng, doesn't want to be ridden on his head by a 20-year-old boy with a hairy head and a handsome face!

"The last general is willing to go!" Yang Wanwan was the second to stand up.It can be seen that he really wants to go and make meritorious deeds.For him, winning battles is never enough!

"Me too!" Zhang Xiu begged for his life.Although he is the least powerful among the four major generals, he has always been strong and refused to fall behind.

"I, I am the same..." Huang Xi made his final statement, with a hint of reluctance in his voice.

He has always been so lazy. In the past four years under Ma Su's command, he has hardly asked for a task. Even when he was assigned a task, he rushed to complete the minimum requirement, not the highest.

Ma Di looked at the four generals expressionlessly, and finally his eyes fell on Huang Xi.

Although he knew that Yang Wanwan was the most suitable candidate for the seizure of the city, the task could not be assigned in this way.

When Yang Wanwan was attacking two bandits before, he had already taken the lead twice in a row.What would Zhang Xiu think if he assigned the task to Yang Wanwan, the most powerful man?What would Li Sheng think?What would Huang Xi think?
Well, forget about Huang Xi.

For generals, a bowl of water should be leveled.

Ma Di looked straight at Huang Xi without saying a word.

Huang Xi understood that if he continued to fish, he would be punished, so he quickly straightened his back and declared loudly: "The general is willing to go!"

Ma Di nodded, and then slowly said: "Very well, to be fair, let's draw lots to decide."

Isn't that right, general, draw lots again?
You can just arrange for someone to go.

Huang, Li, and Zhang have different expressions.

Huang Xi had a bitter look on his face, he really didn't want to go; Li Sheng laughed, holding an indifferent attitude; Zhang Xiu looked forward to it; Yang Wanwan was eager to try.

Ma Di picked up a twig from the ground, folded it into four sticks of different lengths, held the heads aligned in his hand, and slowly handed it out.

"I'll come first." Li Sheng quickly took the lead, and saw that he had pulled out a wooden stick that was neither long nor short. He was half happy and half worried, and said to everyone: "Everyone, let me go, let me go!" !"

Zhang Xiu was the second to step forward, and pulled out a wooden stick that was slightly longer than Li Sheng's, but it wasn't the longest one. He immediately shook his hand with a look of displeasure, and stepped aside.

Yang Wanwan was the third one to draw. He drew lots very slowly, and his handsome face was very dignified, as if that small wooden stick weighed a thousand catties.

After a long time, the wooden stick was pulled out, and it was indeed the longest one.

"Wahhahaha~, God is helping me too! Everyone, let me give in, let me in."

Yang Wanwan looked at his colleagues complacently, and the other three twitched their lips one after another because of their enthusiasm.

Huang Ximei happily pulled out the last wooden stick, which is the shortest one, smiled and said to everyone, "Congratulations, acceptance, congratulations, millionaire."

Li Sheng and Zhang Xiu also clasped their fists together, congratulating Yang Wanwan for getting the siege mission, but they were more or less uncomfortable in their hearts.

Ever since he entered Jiaozhou, Yang Wanwan had always fought for the first place in every battle. This time, if he successfully captured Guiping City and captured Yulin County, it would be his third success in a row.

Position... It is very likely that he will be directly promoted to Platinum Lieutenant General.

It would be a lie to say that my heart is not sour.

What do you all join the army for?Isn't it just military exploits?

How can it be robbed by one person alone? !

Of course, Huang Xi didn't think so.

Now, he was holding the shortest stick, giggling.

Ma Di stepped forward, patted Huang Xi on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Ah Xi, this mission has a lot to do with whether our army can win the first territory, don't let me down... ..."

No, General, what do you mean by that?
Isn't it the longest to go?

I am the shortest.

Huang Xi was stunned, he just stood there, dumbfounded.

Yang Wanwan was also dumbfounded.Looking at the longest wooden stick in his hand, he doubted his life.

He suspected that he had drawn a fake lottery.

Ma Di waved his hand: "That's right, I forgot to say just now, the one who draws the shortest will go."

As he spoke, he looked around at the crowd and said meaningfully, "Isn't it too late now?"

"Ah? Not too late, not too late!" Huang Xi stated with a bitter face.

"Reasonable!" Li Sheng laughed, he would be happy if Yang Wanwan didn't go.

"The general is wise!" Zhang Xiu has always been a staunch supporter of Ma Di.

"Then congratulations, Brother Huang." Yang Wanwan was relieved soon, and congratulated Huang Xi for getting this mission.

Huang Xi bit the bullet and said: "General, please rest assured, as long as Huang Xi has breath, this city will surely fall!"

Hearing this sentence, Ma Di showed a satisfied expression, handed the troop transfer order talisman to Huang Xi, then patted him on the shoulder kindly again, and walked away with his hands behind his back.

Half an hour later, Huang Xi led four hundred soldiers in Wu army uniforms, left Yushan Dazhai, and marched along the dirt road towards Guiping City, the county seat of Yulin County.

Behind this army, Zhang Xiu led another 400 people, hanging far behind, as support.

Two groups of soldiers and horses went there, which meant that after Yulin County was conquered, half of the military achievements would be taken away by Zhang Xiu.

Huang Xi was slightly unhappy about this.

Although he doesn't want to take the initiative to take the task, it doesn't mean that he is willing to share a task with others.

Moreover, Huang Xi actually doesn't like partnering with Zhang Xiu very much.Although this person treats people generously and behaves steadily, he will never cheat his teammates when he has something to say, and he is not as slippery as Li Sheng.However, this in turn means that this person will take a lot of credit from him.

So when he learned that he was leaving and Zhang Xiu led 400 people to follow, Huang Xi was very depressed.

Huang Xi felt that it would be easy to take down the mere city of Guiping, and Ma Di sent Zhang Xiu as backup because he obviously didn't believe in his ability.

However, Huang Xi didn't know that this time he attacked Guiping City, he would experience a narrow escape.
