Chapter 264 Fire Attack
After the scouts sent by Lei Bo made a journey around Changshe County, they did not find anything abnormal in Changshe County, nor did they find any danger in Changshe County. The entire Changshe County was only an empty Cao Jun camp.
The Cao army camp was empty, and some unimportant items were left in some places. From the ashes in the furnace room, the scout found that the Cao army in Changshe County had not been withdrawn for too long, and it took only one or two days at most.
When Cao's army evacuated, in order to prevent open flames from igniting nearby things, under normal circumstances, they would cover the fire with soil. After the open flame was stuffed by soil, it would burn in the soil for one to three days. Therefore, if the fire was warm with your hands, it means that the enemy's departure time was within this worry.
The scout searched in Changshe County for a long time, and there was nothing else to find except this abandoned camp, so he hurried toward Lei Bo's army.
Outside Changshe County, above the official road.
"Report..."
With a long shout, a scout came from a distance. When he came to Lei Bo, the scout quickly dismounted and knelt on one knee and said, "Report to the general, no abnormalities were found in Changshe County. Cao's army has evacuated Changshe County. Now there is only one abandoned empty camp in Changshe County."
Lei Bo looked up at Changshe County not far away. It was already evening and there were wilderness ridges around him. Since there were abandoned camps by Cao's army in Changshe County, this is the best place to set up camps nearby.
"Go forward quickly, we will set up camp in Changshe County tonight. The Cao army was afraid of our prestige and was avoiding its edge. Now I, Lei Bo, will live in Cao's camp." Lei Bo waved his hand and said with great enthusiasm.
"promise."
After receiving Lei Bo's orders, a group of side and deputy generals from the Pioneer Battalion in the front, he quickly urged his subordinates to go to Changshe County.
Not long after, Lei Bo brought the 20,000 vanguard camp to the abandoned camp of Cao's army. Judging from the things left by Cao's army, they should have left in a hurry.
Not only was it said that the walls made of logs were not removed, but even the top tents were not removed. These dense tents had two or three thousand soldiers.
If seven to ten people are counted in a tent, if these dense tents are counted, the camp can accommodate up to 100,000 people.
The army came outside the abandoned camp, and Lei Bo waved his hand and said, "Search me well and eliminate the risks."
After all, the scouts who came just now were a few people. They searched for clues in these camps. The scouts were just asking for rough and general information. If you want to have a specific inspection, then it is because there are many people now.
With Lei Bo's order, everyone was asked to eliminate the risks. Immediately, another team of soldiers began to check the situation of these remaining tents one by one. If there was no danger in the tent, then they would use these tents tonight.
The soldiers first checked the tents on the periphery. There was no problem with the tents on the periphery. They were empty and had nothing. Even if there were tents with things, most of them were piled up and other messy things.
But when they were checked into the tent in the middle, they immediately found something wrong. There were dry firewood and weeds in the tents in the middle. There was no reason to pile dry firewood and weeds in the tent. Some soldiers touched the heads and felt sticky. The dry firewood and weeds were even poured with tinder oil.
