Summoning the best emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 616
"Wen Yuan, what can I do?"

Xu Huang and Zhang Liao put on civilian clothes and watched from a distance. Hefei City was unbreakable. After Li Jue's example, the Jiangdong soldiers did not neglect the fact that this place was far away from the battlefield. Not only were there troops on the city wall, but there were also generals guarding the drawbridge at the city gate. Intensify inspections.

If you can't attack by force, you can only outsmart.

"Wait!"

Zhang Liao smiled calmly, regardless of whether Xu Huang understood or not, he pulled him back.

Two days later, Pan Zhang and Ma Zhong led the troops to Hefei.

"This general, Pan Zhang, this is General Ma Zhong. I am here to adjust the food by the Lord's military order. Please, general, open the gate of the city."

“Green mountains reflect green water!”

The general guarding the city was Chen Wu. He naturally recognized Pan Zhang and Ma Zhong, but he didn't relax at all and still shouted cautiously.

"Where's all this nonsense coming from? I don't have time to chat with you!"

Pan Zhang scolded, Chen Wu not only did not get angry, but showed a relieved smile, raised his hand and ordered the soldiers to open the city gate.

"That's okay too?"

Zhang Liao and Xu Huang, who were hiding in the dark and observing, burst into laughter. Although they both guessed that Jiang Dongjun must have a secret code to confirm his identity, they did not expect that it would be so strange.

The green hills reflect the green waters, and outsiders would definitely guess the corresponding ones, but Lu Meng did the opposite and gave a vulgar password.

Zhang Liao couldn't help but secretly rejoiced that he was able to hear this strange slogan when Pan Zhang and Ma Zhong came to Hefei first.

After Pan Zhang and Ma Zhong entered the city, he didn't dare to delay, so he immediately went to Lu Meng and told the story of the Xuzhou army attacking the camp to burn food, and ordered the soldiers to load food into the carts.

While they were talking, a Jiangdong soldier appeared strangely outside the city gate again.

"Have Pan Zhang and General Ma Zhong entered the city?"

Zhang Liao spoke Jingzhou dialect and asked Chen Wu loudly on the city wall.

"Why did another soldier come here, still with a Jingzhou accent, presumably it was adapted by Jingzhou's surrendered soldiers."

Chen Wu was a little strange, he didn't answer Zhang Liao's words, but asked, "Green mountains reflect green water!"

"How can there be so much nonsense, I don't have time to chat with you!"

The corners of Zhang Liao's mouth twitched. Even though he had seen Pan Zhang use this peculiar password, he still felt very worried.

"The two generals have already entered the city. The generals are generals from Jingzhou. Why are you here?"

Chen Wu once again showed a relieved smile. Hefei is too important to let him be careless.

"This general is Jingzhou's general Wen Yuan. I am hereby ordered by my lord to ask the two generals, Pan Zhang and Ma Zhong, to double the amount of food and grass."

Zhang Liao took his time and thought of all the countermeasures.

Xu Huang, who was standing next to him, was shocked. He never thought that Zhang Liao was so bold and dared to directly use his cousin's name as a pseudonym.

"It turned out to be a brother of the Wen family. Why did he have to transport food again?"

Chen Wu only regarded Zhang Liao as a member of Wenpin's clan. Although Wenpin died early in battle, the Wen family was still one of the big clans in Jingzhou, so he would not despise him too much.

"Well, the general doesn't know. After the two generals Pan and Ma left, Yue Fei sent another surprise attack. Our army was unprepared, and he burned [-]% of the food and grass. Now the army's food and grass are exhausted. Yue Fei took the opportunity to fight for days, and the soldiers panicked. The generals are about to fight again, so my lord can only order me to help Generals Pan and Ma transport food."

Just as Zhang Liao was speaking, Chen Wu had ordered someone to open the city gate to let them in.

Zhang Liao and Xu Huang looked at each other without showing any emotion, and led Danyang's elite soldiers into the city.

Following Chen Wu to the granary, looking up, there are all high-quality grain and grass, very gratifying.

Next to them, Jiangdong soldiers and civilian husbands were carrying grain and grass and loading them into carriages. Dong Xi, who was guarding the granary, saw that Chen Wu led Zhang Liao and others came again. Load food.

Zhang Liao and Xu Huang did not act in a hurry, as if they were the real Jiangdong army, commanding the soldiers to carry the grain and grass, but unconsciously, they quietly understood the surrounding terrain, and even learned about Lu Meng's character from the mouth of the peasants features.

That night, Zhang Liao knew that it was time for Chen Wu and Dong Xi to report to Lv Meng, so he and Xu Huang led [-] soldiers to escort the packed grain and grass to the city gate.

Sure enough, the general guarding the city was no longer Chen Wu. Zhang Liao shouted anxiously: "The military situation is urgent, and food and grass must not be lost. Please also open the city gate and let me go out."

The guard had seen Zhang Liao enter the city during the day, and he had heard him speak seriously, so he had no doubts, and without even asking for the password, he directly opened the city gate and let them go.

Zhang Liao and Xu Huang didn't delay, and immediately sneaked out of the city with food and grass.

Not long after the two led the army out of the city, a burst of flames suddenly rose in the city of Hefei, the flames filled the air, and thick smoke billowed.

It was Zhang Liao's five hundred soldiers who had left in the city and set fire to the granary. The fire was so big that it was like a dragon devouring it.

"No, it's a hit!"

Lu Meng was listening to Chen Wu's report, and felt something strange in his heart. When he saw the roaring fire, he didn't know what was going on. He shouted and quickly led his troops to put out the fire.

However, the granary was filled with grain and grass, which would easily catch fire, not to mention that five hundred soldiers set the fire on fire. At that moment, the fire took advantage of the wind, and the wind helped the fire. The fire dragon raged and was difficult to extinguish.

"kill!"

With a low shout, the soldiers who were still fighting the fire picked up their weapons and charged at Lu Meng.

These are the Danyang elite soldiers who stayed behind to set fire. Their identities cannot be hidden for long. Instead of waiting to die, it is better to fight desperately and kill Lu Meng.

Beside Lu Meng, Chen Wu and Dong Xi held long sabers and protected them from left to right. Although Danyang's elite soldiers were fierce, they were still far behind Jiangdong's generals.

"Damn it! The enemy army is definitely not far away, Chen Wu and Dong Xi, you two stay to fight the fire, Pan Zhang and Ma Zhong, you two follow me to pursue!"

Lv Meng was angry but not chaotic, so he immediately led an army of [-] out of the city to pursue Zhang Liao and Xu Huang!
"just in front!"

In the dark night, the torches merged into a long dragon, and Lu Meng led his soldiers and horses to chase along the fallen grain and grass, and soon caught up.

"General Ziming, we only have food and grass, and the enemy is gone!"

Pan Zhang got off his horse and checked, and found that the road was full of grain trucks, but Zhang Liao and others had disappeared completely, and there were no people left.

"General Ziming, I will order people to move the grain carts, so the enemy can't escape."

When Ma Zhong saw Lu Meng's gloomy face and said nothing, he thought he was angry and had been escaped by Zhang Liao.

"Where is this place?"

Lu Meng didn't answer, but asked rather strangely.

"Xiaoyaojin."

Pan Zhang replied.

Lu Meng's face changed abruptly when he heard the words, and he said anxiously: "Quick back, the enemy is in an ambush!"

Before he finished speaking, the bowstrings trembled all around, the rocket flew into the air, and immediately burst into flames when it hit the grain cart.

The grain cart was ignited, and the surrounding night wind blew up, instantly igniting all the weeds and reeds nearby. For a moment, two seas of flames echoed in the distance, inside and outside the city.

Despite Lu Meng's reminder, Jiangdong's army still retreated too late. Many soldiers did not react in time and were immediately exposed to the sea of ​​fire. The sounds of wailing and screaming were heard together with the sound of roaring fire.
