Chapter 508 The situation is reversed.
As more and more Yuan's army turned against each other, the situation in Wuchao was settled. The brothers Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun entered Wuchao. All the soldiers of Yuan's army who dared to resist were killed.
Wuchao Camp.
The Central Army’s tent.
"General, General, the big thing is wrong. Cao's army has entered and cannot stop it!" A blood-covered general rushed into the tent and shouted at Chunyu Qiong.
"Hululu, Hululu."
"Good wine, good wine, it's really good wine!" Chunyu Qiong lay on the table, snoring, and kept murmuring to himself.
Smelling the smell of wine in the room, I was about to know that Chunyu Qiong must be drinking.
"Why did King Jin send such a foolish guy to be the leader of Wuchao? How can Wuchao not be lost?" said the side general cursingly.
He cursed and cursed, but Chunyu Qiong was the main general of Wuchao, so he couldn't ignore him!
The general quickly greeted several soldiers, lifted the drunk Chunyu Qiong and fled back.
At this time, I still didn't forget to bring Chunyu Qiong with me, but because of the loss of Wuchao, I had to take the blame.
There is no doubt that Chunyu Qiong must have been the one who took the blame, but if he was let to die in Wuchao, then this matter would be unclear.
As long as Chunyu Qiong is still alive, even if he loses Wuchao, he will not be able to clean up even if he jumps into the Yellow River.
Wuchao, granary.
"Brother, it's a pity to burn such food, grass and weapons just like this." Xiahou Yuan said to his brother Xiahou Dun with a torch.
Xiahou Dun looked at the granary coldly and sighed, "We can't defend this Wuchao City, and it is not realistic to transport it away. We can only burn it all."
The Xiahou brothers brought a total of 5,000 soldiers and horses. After this battle, there are still 3,000 people.
This Wuchao City is among Yuan Shao's hundreds of thousands of troops. Once Yuan Shao's army returns to help, they will not be able to defend Wuchao or transport these foods.
The best way at this time is to burn these grains.
"Burn, there's nothing to be reluctant to do."
"As long as you defeat Yuan's army, Yuan Shao's entire territory will belong to us. Why don't you care about these food, grass and weapons?" Xiahou Dun said.
After Xiahou Dun gave the order, Cao's generals immediately began to dump kerosene towards the granary and arsenal, and then ignite it with a torch.
"Hu, Hu, Hu."
You should know that these foods are all flammable and explosive items. As soon as the fire ignites, it will ignite and will be unstoppable.
When the weather is dry, even a candle can cause a raging fire, let alone this granary ignited with tincture oil.
In an instant, the entire Wuchao was ignited, and the blazing flames made the sky red.
Cao's army camp.
"A big thing is accomplished!"
"Cough, cough."
"A big thing is accomplished!"
Guo Jia looked at the fire rising into the sky in Wuchao, and couldn't help but sigh loudly.
Yuan Jun camp.
"Where is the fire ignited?" Yuan Shao's eyes were round, looking horrified.
"King of Jin, it seems to be in the direction of Wuchao?" A sideline general replied in Yuan's military camp.
When Yuan Shao heard that it was the direction of Wuchao, he was immediately panicked. All the food and grass of the Yuan army's hundreds of thousands of troops were stocked in Wuchao. The grain stored in the army only lasted for three days. Once something happened to Wuchao, everything would be over for Yuan Shao.
"Send people to Wuchao quickly to investigate the news!" Yuan Shao hurriedly ordered.
"Don't worry, King Jin, Wuchao is enough to garrison General Chunyu Qiong's 20,000 troops. It may not be that there is something wrong with Wuchao!" The side general comforted.
At the same time, fires ignited from the Wuchao were also seen on the front battlefield. The place where the fire soared into the sky made Cao army's heart a formation, and his morale suddenly increased.
After seeing the fire, Yuan Jun did not understand what was going on, but he knew in his heart that it must be something bad.
For a time, on the main battlefield of Guandu, the morale of Cao's army increased greatly, while the morale of Yuan's army was low.
On the Guandu city wall, Ju Yi looked at the fire lights rising in the direction of Wuchao and couldn't help but whisper softly: "This Chunyu Qiong's good wine is incompetent and useless. Could it be that something happened to Wuchao?"
Ju Yi is a very pure soldier. He doesn't drink alcohol, doesn't like women, and doesn't flatter. Therefore, he looks down on Chunyu Qiong, who likes to drink as much as he wants.
I think Chunyu Qiong has no ability and is useless.
However, Ju Yi is not the one who chews behind the scenes of people's tongues, so even if he thinks so in his heart, he has never said it.
Chunyu Qiong and Yuan Shao are good friends. Although Chunyu Qiong has no ability, he is also highly valued.
This time, when Yuan Shao appointed Chunyu Qiong to take over Wuchao, Ju Yi felt something was wrong.
However, since Wuchao is in the hinterland of Yuan’s army, it is a place without any danger. Therefore, Ju Yi didn’t say much.
However, what I never expected now was that something really happened in Wuchao.
Wuchao, this is a crucial position. Once something happens to Wuchao, it is likely to become a turning point to turn the situation around.
"Send people quickly to Wuchao to investigate the situation!" Ju Yi ordered to his subordinates.
At the same time, in the mountain road thirty miles outside Wuchao.
Thousands of defeated soldiers were walking in the mountain road, and Chunyu Qiong was lying on a simple stretcher and was carried by the soldiers.
"Where is the wine?"
"Where is my wine?" Suddenly, Chunyu Qiong sat up from the stretcher and asked in a daze.
The deputy general surnamed Li next to him thought to himself, when is it time to drink? I’m afraid that you will not be able to save your life by then.
After being stunned for a few minutes, Chunyu Qiong seemed to have reacted. Looking at the situation around him, he looked at the more than a thousand dirty soldiers in front of him. Chunyu Qiong was shocked.
"What happened?" Chunyu Qiong asked tentatively to the left and right.
"General, that's the case..." The deputy general surnamed Li suddenly told the story of what happened tonight like a bamboo tube pouring beans.
After hearing these words, Chunyu Qiong immediately cried out in pain: "I missed a big deal after drinking, so I'll give up my life!"
Chunyu Qiong knew in his heart that he had lost Wuchao and let Cao's army burn hundreds of thousands of troops' food. Even when he returned to Yuan Shao, he had ten heads, which was not enough for Yuan Shao to cut them down.
"No, how did Cao's army sneak into the city?" Suddenly, Chunyu Qiong discovered something wrong.
"General, I'm afraid there will be problems with the people who work hard. After eating the food they sent, my brothers got tired of stomachs all night!" The deputy general surnamed Li replied.
"The people who work hard are Xu You's fellow clan, how could there be any problems?"
"unless....."
