Chapter 926 Burning Spring Tomb
Chapter 926
Liu Pan finally agreed with Huang Zhong’s opinion and divided the 11 thousand soldiers into two parts. Huang Zhong was the vanguard and led five thousand people, while Liu Pan led the remaining six thousand soldiers as the rear army. The one after the other pursued Zhou Yu’s army, hoping to capture Zhou Yu as soon as possible.
And these days, the number of stove pits buried by Zhou Yujun has become less and less, from 7,000 to 5,000, and only half is left, making Liu Pan’s mood to break the enemy more and more. Urgent, I can’t wait to fight Zhou Yujun immediately.
“General, Zhou Yujun retreated without a fight. Now Quanling has become an empty city.” Shi Zuhui reported.
“Hahaha, Zhou Yu’s children are really timid like a mouse. Quanling is where the Lingling County is located. He retreated without fighting. Our army got a strong city for nothing. It’s really funny.” Liu Pan couldn’t help laughing.
Quanling is the rule of Lingling County. Once conquered, as long as you speed up the march, you will be able to enter Guiyang County in less than three days. Liu Pan did not engage the enemy at all, which is equivalent to receiving the empty city left by Zhou Yu. Isn’t it refreshing?
“Hahaha, I will rest in this city for one night tonight, and I will advance to Guiyang County tomorrow. Maybe the Governor Gao is still in a **** battle with Jiangdong in Changsha. Our army has even visited Kelingling and Guiyang County, straight from behind. Punching Changsha County and meeting with Gaodu Governor in Linxiang City, hahaha!”
As the chief governor of the Xiliang navy division, Gao Chong was naturally considered a general, but this time he could overpower Gao Chong, and General Liu Ye naturally looked differently.
After a short while, some soldiers reported back: “General, General Huang requested to be stationed outside the city. If Jiangdong Army strikes, it will be able to form a horn with the city.”
Liu Pan frowned, “Well, Brother Han Sheng is really…well, not sleeping in the city, but suffering outside the city, tusk tusk.”
After talking for a while, Liu Pan shook his head, leaving Huang Zhong aside, but was going to sleep.
It didn’t take long before night fell, covering the whole earth. Quanling City was naturally shrouded in the dark night, and most people, including Liu Pan, had already fallen asleep.
At this time, several residential houses in the city suddenly opened the door in unison, and more than a dozen strong men walked out together and looked at each other.
The night market first appeared in the Song Dynasty. A curfew has been implemented thousands of years before this to prevent people from disordering at night. How could these people blatantly violate the curfew and appear on the streets?
“Did you sleep well during the day?”
“Don’t worry, I’ve locked the door during the day and didn’t dare to come out. I’m still refreshed.
“That’s good, don’t mess up the things that the general governor has confessed. Whether you can defeat Liu Panjun, it all depends on this time!”
The speaker’s eyes gleamed in the night, like a gem, he couldn’t help gritting his teeth and clenching his fists when he said this.
It turns out that these people were the people Zhou Yu laid in ambush in advance. They took off their armor, put on civilian attire and stayed in the city, just for this night.
“Although most of the enemy troops have fallen asleep, some soldiers have been arranged to watch the night. When the time comes, they will be careful and smart, you know?” the leader warned.
Seeing more than a dozen people nodded, he whispered: “Okay, split up and go!”
A dozen people suddenly separated into a group and moved separately, all carrying skins filled with kerosene, and walking quickly towards the predetermined location.
“Hey, Liu Pan, this idiot, of course, did not expect that most governors would hoard hay in residential houses, not in the granary.” This man smiled, untied the kerosene skin bag around his waist and sprinkled it directly on the hay Then, take out the flint, light the torch, and throw it in.
boom!
When dry wood touches the fire, it is naturally a little bit, and with the help of kerosene, the fire burns quickly, and the red flames suddenly rise, like a devil with teeth and claws.
At the same time, more than ten places in the city were ignited at the same time, and the buildings in Toucheng this year were naturally basically wooden, all of which were fuel. As the flames continued to spread, a mighty flame suddenly swept the entire spring. Looking at the mausoleum from outside the city, the entire spring mausoleum was completely swallowed by flames and turned into a city of fire!
Ten miles to the east of the city, a military horse is stationed outside the city, with a number of about 10,000 people, flying a flag with the word Zhou.
Under the banner, there is a general wearing iron armor and a brocade robe. He presses the saber around his waist and looks to the west from time to time.
“General Governor, the fire is burning!”
Tai Shi Ci excitedly reported.
“Great!”
Even people like Zhou Yu couldn’t help but get excited at this moment.
“The city has already lit up flames, and the enemy army must be panicked and defeat the enemy army. It’s now time to make contributions!”
Kailang!
Zhou Yu drew the sword from his waist and shouted: “The whole army listens to my deployment and defeats the enemy!”
A group of Jiangdong army generals clasped their fists and said: “I would like to listen to the instructions of the governor!”
“Great!”
Zhou Yu looked around at the left and right generals, and shouted, “Taishi Ci.”
“The end is here!” Tai Shici, a masculine heroic fighter, took a step forward: “What is the command of the chief governor?”
“Ziyi is brave and can lead three thousand troops to stop Huang Zhong and prevent Huang Zhong from rescuing Liu Pan!”
“Here!”
“Lu Meng!” Zhou Yu shouted again.
“The end is here, what is the command of the chief governor?”
“You led a thousand soldiers and horses and rushed to the west gate quickly. If there are any fish that slip through the net from the enemy, immediately kill them all!”
“Here!”
Zhou Yu ordered to go down. The four Jiangdong army generals led a thousand troops and horses to block the east, west, north and south gates of Quanling to prevent the enemy from escaping the city.
Zhou Yu, on the other hand, led three thousand troops and horses as the rear army, and rushed to Quanling City for assistance.
This was Zhou Yu’s plan. In fact, everything he did before was not for anything else, but for paralyzing Liu Pan.
The cities of Fuyi, Taoyang, Duliang, etc., retreated without fighting, deliberately reducing the number of stoves, creating the illusion of a constant loss of lieutenants and soldiers. All of this was to paralyze Liu Pan.
As for the Jiang Dong soldier Liu Pan caught in Taoyang City that day, Zhou Yu actually arranged it deliberately. This Jiangdong soldier is not an ordinary person, but a dead soldier of the Jiangdong Sun family, absolutely loyal to the Sun family.
And Zhou Yu gave him a generous reward and gave his family a hundred gold. Naturally, this dead man was stubborn and swearing to serve the Sun family. Zhou Yu ordered him to be caught deliberately by the enemy, and then said that.
Liu Pan was also worried that Zhou Yu was trying to seduce him by reducing the stove, but after hearing this “deserter”, he unknowingly believed it.
In this way, Zhou Yu, through the empty city plan, the reduction of the stove, and borrowing the words of the dead, finally made Liu Pan fooled, and laid ambush in Quanling City and burned into the city!
