Chapter 252 Looking for new targets

Xi Junmai led the Qinglong iron cavalry and galloped wantonly in Xuchang City. All government offices and military buildings in the city were sprinkled with fire oil and burned, but they did not offend the people in Xuchang City.

"General Xi, we searched the city and found no granary!"

Cao Zhengchun rode his horse and said to Xi Junmai in a deep voice.

"Is everything that should be burned burned?"

Xi Junmai asked in a deep voice.

"Burn them all!"

Cao Zhengchun replied in a deep voice.

"Withdraw!"

Hearing Cao Zhengchun's answer, Xi Junmai nodded and ordered in a deep voice.

Hearing Xi Junmai's order to withdraw the troops, the Qinglong cavalry said nothing, turned their horses around and galloped towards Xuchang city gate.

Xi Jun bought and broke the rear alone at the end of the team.

Xi Junmai led the Qinglong Iron Cavalry and drove away, leaving only the dilapidated Xuchang City, messy in the wind alone.

"Eunuch Zhao hasn't come back yet?"

Xi Junmai asked in a deep voice.

"Not coming back!"

Cao Zhengchun replied in a deep voice.

"Is there an accident, has anyone sent someone to look for it?"

Xi Junmai said in a deep voice.

"Don't look for it, focus on the overall situation!

Zhao Gao's ability is good, if he is not dead, he will definitely find us. "

Cao Zhengchun sighed and said in a deep voice.

"Ah~"

Hearing what Cao Zhengchun said, Xi Junmai sighed, urged the horse under his crotch, and led the Qinglong cavalry all the way away.

Yes, it is important to focus on the overall situation.

The army was alone deep behind the enemy's rear, with no supplies and no soldiers. Every one of the soldiers under his command died.

Xi Junmai led the Qinglong iron cavalry and galloped for dozens of miles before leading them into the mountains far away from the official road.

Cao Zhengchun led Jin Yiwei to help cover up the traces, but Xi Junmai didn't need to worry about it.

"Rest in place!"

Xi Junmai looked around and found that this mountain forest was very suitable for the geographical location, so he gave the order to rest in place.

"Whoa!"

Hearing Xi Junmai's order, thousands of Qinglong iron cavalry moved in unison, got off their horses and chose a place to repair.

"Go and count the casualties!"

Xi Junmai called the lieutenant general and ordered in a deep voice.

"Follow the order!"

Hearing Xi Junmai's order, the lieutenant responded and turned to count the casualties.

Xi Jun bought a big tree, sat down against it, closed his eyes and rested his mind, waiting until Cao Zhengchun.

Although they easily invaded Xuchang City just now, there was no gain. Cao Cao's food and grass were not in Xuchang at all.

The grain and grass in the entire Xuchang granary, added together, are not enough to feed a hundred thousand troops for two days.

"Where should the next goal be?"

Xi Junmai closed his eyes, but he was thinking about Cao Cao's grain.

Where will Cao Cao, an old fox, put the granary?

"How about Qiao County?"

Xi Junmai muttered to himself.

It is very possible that Qiao County is the ancestral land of the Cao family and Xiahou family.

However, will Cao Cao really place the granary in Qiao County?

Dongchang just made a big disturbance in Qiao County.

Not only the clansmen of the Cao family and the Xiahou family were slaughtered by Dongchang, their ancestral houses were burned, and even their ancestral graves were dug by Dongchang.

Such a city, would Cao Cao still choose it as a place to store grain and grass?

"It's not true, it's not true, it's possible!"

Thinking of this, Xi Junmai suddenly opened his eyes and muttered the truth over and over again.

Xi Junmai was thinking, if he were Cao Cao, how likely it was that he would choose Qiao County as the place for grain and grass resettlement.

"With Cao Cao's suspicious character, what are the chances that he would choose Qiao County as a place to settle grain and grass?"

Xi Junmai muttered to himself.

After repeated consideration, Xi Junmai felt that it was very likely that Cao Cao would use Qiao County as a place for food and grass.

With Cao Cao's suspicious character, it would make him feel that Qiao County, which had just suffered cholera from the Han army, was more suitable as a place for food and grass resettlement.

Cao Cao's suspicious character, coupled with his proficiency in the way of fiction and reality, the most dangerous place is the safest.

The safest city of Xuchang is actually the most dangerous.

It is precisely because Xuchang City is the safest place to resettle food and grass that Xi Junmai chooses to attack Xuchang, but the result is obviously that he returns in vain.

"Will it be Qiao County?"

Xi Junmai muttered to himself.

"Whether it is or not, you will know once you go to Qiao County!"

Xi Junmai secretly made up his mind that his next goal was to visit Qiao County.

Even if you can't find a place to resettle Cao Cao's grain and grass, it's still a good choice.

I have gone to Xuchang City, so there is no reason not to go to Qiao County to have a look.

"I hope it's as I thought, the number of these soldiers is getting smaller and smaller as we fight!"

Xi Junmai sighed.

Xi Junmai leaned against the tree trunk, looked at the dark sky, and silently calculated the marching route.

Only by finding a marching route that can reach Qiao County quickly can the combat effectiveness of the soldiers be more effectively maintained and the casualties of the soldiers can be reduced.

Not long after, there was a sound of horseshoes, and Cao Zhengchun came leading Jin Yiwei.

"General Xi, our family is back!"

Cao Zhengchun got off his horse, leaned over to Xi Junmai's side, and said in a deep voice.

"Thank you, Eunuch Cao!"

Hearing Cao Zhengchun's voice, Xi Junmai opened his eyes, looked at Cao Zhengchun, and said in a deep voice.

"No hard work, no hard work, it's all for His Majesty!"

Hearing Xi Jun's words of buying, Cao Zhengchun raised his orchid fingers and said with a sweet smile.

Seeing Cao Zhengchun's actions, Xi Junmai smiled and said nothing.

After getting along with the old eunuch Cao Zhengchun for a long time, Xi Jun bought the right job of eunuch, which has greatly improved.

Although Cao Zhengchun and Zhao Gao were both eunuchs, they were not the kind of eggless bitches as imagined. Instead, they saw blood in them.

The two old eunuchs are more bloody than ordinary men.

The two old eunuchs went into battle to kill the enemy. They were more men than men.

Seeing that Xi Junmai didn't want to talk, Cao Zhengchun stopped talking, and sat down under the tree, leaning against the trunk and closing his eyes to rest.

After the fight just now, he was indeed tired.

"Eunuch Cao, Eunuch Zhao hasn't come back yet?"

After an unknown amount of time, Xi Junmai asked suddenly.

"Oh, no, I'm afraid it's more ominous than good luck!"

Hearing Xi Junmai's interrogation, Cao Zhengchun opened his eyes, sighed, and said sharply.

"With Eunuch Zhao's cultivation level, even if he can't kill Man Chong, his life will not be in danger. Is it possible to return him alive, right?"

Xi Junmai frowned.

"At least Zhao Gao managed to entangle Man Chong, because Man Chong did not return to Xuchang to report the letter, otherwise we would not have entered Xuchang so smoothly and killed Cao Ren outside the city."

Hearing Xi Jun's words, Cao Zhengchun gave a wry smile and said in a deep voice.

"Indeed, if Eunuch Zhao had not been able to entangle Man Chong, with Man Chong's cultivation, even if he left, he would have reported the news to Cao Ren before he led his army to Xuchang."

Hearing Cao Zhengchun's words, Xi Junmai nodded and said in a deep voice.
