Chapter 169 Burn Yuanying, Wei Zhongdao's plan!

On the mainland in July, the sky is clear, and the sun in the sky emits high temperature, which makes the fighting soldiers feel a fiery sting.

In order to stop the Wei army from pursuing, Shen Pei ordered the Yuan army's camp on the north bank to be set on fire!

But at this moment, Yuan Shao's general Ju Yi hurriedly stopped Shen Pei, his face full of anxiety: "You can't burn it!"

"Mr. Zhengnan, our army has stored 30,000 troops' food for a month here, if it burns, the food will be gone!

Yuan Shao thought he could block Wei Zhongdao on the north bank, so he deployed 30,000 troops and hoarded food and grass here.

But he didn't expect that it was just his own mistake, and Wei Zhongdao seized the opportunity and killed others.

If the food and grass are burned at this moment, then their food here will be gone.

You must know that from the beginning of the year to the present, Yuan Shao has been defeating the battle, and the food and grass have been captured by Wei Zhong's "June 20" Dao's army and horses.

These grains and forages were finally harvested by Yuan Shao's people from the farmers' fields on the south bank.

If it is really going to burn, Yuan Jun's morale will not only be hit, but will also fall into a situation of poor food and grass.

Now that Yuan Shao is in a coma, only Shen Pei and Ju Yi can call the shots, but the two of them disagree.

"General Ju Yi, what time is this, you are still thinking about food and grass!

Shen Pei hated that iron could not become steel, and pointed anxiously at the Wei army who was rushing outside: "Look at the current battle situation, the Wei army is not afraid of life and death, and our army will be defeated!

"If we delay any longer, we won't be able to leave if we want to. If we don't burn the food and grass, should we leave it to King Wei?"

After speaking, without waiting for Ju Yi to refute, Shen Pei pushed Ju Yi away, and ordered the messenger with a grim face: "Go to the messenger and set fire to the camp!"

"Whether it's the granary or the arsenal, it's all burned! 95

"No!" The messenger responded and hurriedly went down to pass the order.

When Ju Yi heard this, he was stunned for a moment and opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

He knew that what Shen Pei said was right, and if they didn't make a decision as soon as possible at this time, they would not be able to escape from here.

If they lost their lives, it would be useless for them to ask for food and grass.

Soon, Yuan Jun, who received the order, quickly collected a lot of dry wood, inflammables, pine oil, etc., and surrounded the camp.

When the torch was thrown, the fire roared and ignited in an instant.

It was July, the hottest time of the year, and the hot sun made the fire even stronger.

Along the pine oil, dry wood and other items, the fire continued to burn all the tents in Yuan Jun's barracks.

In less than a stick of incense, the entire camp was engulfed by fire, blocking the way for the Wei army to attack.

"Retreat, retreat!

Seeing that the opportunity could not be missed, Shen Pei hurriedly ordered the troops to quickly withdraw from the camp and head towards Qingtao City in the north.

With the fire blocking, Shen Pei believed that the Wei army would not be able to catch up.

Although they lost all their ships in this battle, the camp and food and forage were also burned, and the general Chunyu Qiong also died at the hands of Zhang Liao, but he took at least part of the soldiers and horses with him.

Although Yuan Shao was in a coma, he had no fear of his life, and there was still a chance to make a comeback.

With this thought in mind, Shen Pei led the remnants of the defeated generals and fled with the unconscious Yuan Jun.

Such a huge fire made Wei Zhongdao, who had just landed, look at him.

"It seems that Shen Pei ordered the camp to be burned down. He is a ruthless man!" Wei Zhongdao looked up at the fire and sighed a little.

It takes great determination and courage to order the camp to be burned, otherwise, whoever dares to say that such a large camp will be burned.

Seeing this, Zhang Liang also shook his head, with regret on his face: "It's a pity, with this fire, our army can't pursue it.

"I wanted to finish my work in one battle and take the opportunity to take Yuan Shao, but I never thought that Shen Pei would be so decisive and set fire to the barracks of this 30,000-strong army."

A military camp that can accommodate 30,000 people is not small, and it is a large camp for several miles. The fire together, it is impossible to pass.

"Forget it, go and inform Zhao Yun, Zhang Shun, and Zhang Liao, let them count the damage, clean the battlefield, and put out the fire as soon as possible! 35

“Otherwise, the fire will get bigger and bigger, and it will seriously affect the surrounding people. 35

Wei Zhongdao knew that this was not the time to pursue, and the only thing he could do was this.

The fire is so big, he can't let the fire burn down, otherwise, once it spreads, the nearby people will definitely encounter it, and they will not be able to pass here under the condition of the fire.

With an order, Zhao Yun and the others who received the order on the front did not dare to neglect, and did their best to organize manpower to put out the fire.

Fortunately, Yuan Jun's camp was not very far from the shore, and the soldiers could fetch water from the shore to put out the fire.

Seeing the busy figures of everyone, Tian Feng couldn't help sighing: "Brother Zhengnan, why are you bothering me..."

"Yuan Shao, it's not worth your life for him!"

Tian Feng and Shen Pei have always been under Yuan Shao's command, but now Tian Feng has seen clearly what Yuan Shao is, and he is not worth it for Shen Pei.

He could even imagine that Yuan Shao would wake up and use the trial match as the main reason for this defeat as a scapegoat.

He knew Yuan Shao very well and knew that as long as Yuan Shao was defeated, he would definitely find someone to take the blame for him.

Now that the audition has ordered the camp to be burned down, isn't he a candidate to take the blame.

When Wei Zhongdao saw Tian Feng like this, he couldn't help but have a plan!

It seems that the match is now playing a very important role in Yuan Shao's army. If he can divide the relationship between this person and Yuan Shao, it will be much easier for him to take the dust city.

Although he could take Qiantao City with his current troops even if he attacked by force, he would certainly lose many soldiers.

Wei Zhongdao has always been able to use tactics, so he doesn't need to attack.

To win a city, siege is the last resort, Wei Zhongdao won't go that far unless he has to.

Thinking of this, Wei Zhongdao narrowed his eyes and looked at Tian Feng with a smile: "Mr. Yuan Hao is quite familiar with the matchmaking, I wonder how much Yuan Shao trusts the matchmaking?"

Tian Feng was stunned when he heard the words, not understanding why Wei Zhongdao suddenly asked this question at this moment.

But soon, he reacted and asked cautiously: "Could it be that the king wants to divide the relationship between Shen and Yuan Shao in 3.1?"

Tian Feng is not a fool, with his wisdom, he can naturally guess this.

"Not bad!" Wei Zhongdao turned in the direction of Liao Taocheng and said bluntly: "Yingtao City has gathered a large number of Yuan troops, if this king attacks by force, the gains will outweigh the losses.

"If we can separate the relationship between Yuan Shao and Shen Pei, Yuan Shao will lose his right-hand man, and it will be much easier for our army to take Chen Tao City.

This explanation was not what Tian Feng expected, he nodded in agreement: "The king's strategy is indeed brilliant!""

"To be honest, Yuan Shao only believes that Yan Liangwen is ugly, and he is always wary of others! 95

"Don't look at Yuan Shao's apparent trust in Shen Pei, but that's also his helpless act, because the people below him will die and fall down, leaving Shen Pei on the table."

"If Your Majesty uses a scheme to alienate their relationship, Yuan Shao will definitely take advantage of it!"
