Yuan Fang had no way out, he had to rob Yuan Shao's food and grass.
The counselors fell silent, and even Tian Feng stopped trying to persuade him. He also understood the current situation of his own army.
"It is imperative to rob the enemy's grain camp, but this battle is quite risky. The lord still has to choose a general who is worthy of the big task." Guo Jia reminded.
Yuan Fang said seriously: "This battle is of great importance, I must personally lead the elite troops there."
In history, Cao Cao robbed Wuchao of food and led his army there himself.
The reason is very simple. The enemy's important grain camp will be heavily guarded. If Cao Cao doesn't personally take action, how can he inspire the maximum fighting spirit of his soldiers and forcefully break through the enemy's defense.
Yuan Fang's situation today is the same. He must take action personally.
"But Yuan Fang is not a person who takes risks casually. He has biochemical abilities, and with the red rabbit horse, he is confident that he can escape unscathed even if there is any danger.
Although Guo Jia was worried about Yuan Fang, he also knew that Yuan Fang had to go, so he just sighed and stopped trying to persuade him.
Yuan Fang raised his head, looked around the generals, and said loudly: "Who among you has the courage to go with me to rob Yuan Shao's grain camp?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Fei jumped up first and said with emotion: "My lord, Fei is willing to go!"
"I would like to go to the Shaoliang camp with my lord." Yan Liang also jumped up immediately.
Then, Ji Yu Wenchou, Gao Shun, Xu Huang and other generals stood up one after another and asked for battle impassionedly.
Yuan Fang was very pleased that everyone was willing to take the risk.
Looking around at the excited generals, Yuan Fang was about to order someone. At this time, Zhang Fei resolutely said: "My lord, I must participate in this battle. If Guan Yu's guy is here, I will kill him with my own hands."
Once Zhang Fei said this, what else could Yuan Fang say? Of course he had to be chosen.
Therefore, Yuan Convenient ordered two generals, Zhang Fei and Yan Liang, to use five thousand fine cavalry on foot, pretending to be the banner of the Northern Army, and went to rob the grain camp in Weixiang.
"If Yuan Shao finds out, he will probably take advantage of the situation and attack my Lihu camp, Ah Liang. Bo Ping. You two will temporarily guard the camp for me. You must hold firm without fighting until I come back."
Before leaving, Yuan Fang took command of the camp. It was left to Zhuge Liang and Gao Shun.
Gao Shun has rich experience. Calm and heavy. You can use it yourself.
As for Zhuge Liang, he has grown a lot after following Yuan Fang for many years. Moreover, he is Yuan Fang's disciple. Now, it is time for him to start taking the lead.
Zhuge Liang did not expect that Yuan Fang would trust him so much at this critical moment, and he couldn't help but be moved.
The young man jumped up, raised his hands and said seriously: "Master, don't worry, with me and General Gao here, Yuan Shao can't even think of stepping into my camp!"
Yuan Fang nodded slightly, subconsciously raised his hand, and as usual, seemed to pat Zhuge Liang on the head to show his relief.
Halfway through the road, Yuan Fang stopped for a moment and put his hand on his shoulder. He didn't say too many words, just patted him lightly.
Zhuge Liang was pleasantly surprised. He knew that Master's change meant that he no longer treated him as a child, but recognized his growth.
Yuan Fang smiled and strode out with head held high, followed by Zhang Fei and Yanliang.
¡¡
When night fell that day, Yuan Fang led 5,000 elite infantry and cavalry troops, left the camp, crossed the Pu River, and quietly marched northwest along the south bank.
Not long after arriving, Yuan Fang's army encountered a Northern Army patrol of more than fifty people.
According to common practice, when the Northern Army patrol found that it was their own flag, they came to patrol the night pass code to distinguish the authenticity from the fake.
Of course, it was impossible for Yuan Fang to know the secret code, so he immediately sent Yan Liang to attack with 500 cavalry, and unexpectedly surrounded and killed the patrol team and captured several people alive.
Yuan Fang turned on his mind-reading pupil and searched the prisoners' brains for the enemy's passage codes and the directions of enemy patrols along the way.
Weixiang is the center of the enemy's grain camp, and it is impossible for Yuan Fang not to take precautions. If Yuan Fang wants to bypass Yuan Shao's frontal defense line, he will inevitably run into the enemy's patrol cavalry.
Now, with the pass code and the fact that he is wearing enemy armor, Yuan Fang can more easily penetrate deep into the enemy's rear.
After receiving the signal, Yuan Fang continued to march along the Pu River. He encountered several checkpoints and patrols along the way, but he was able to get through them all.
When the east turned white, Yuan Fang led an army of five thousand and finally reached the Weixiang area.
Across the Pu River, Yuan Fang opened his telescope and scanned the other side. In the dim light of dawn, he could clearly see a huge grain camp standing on the north bank of the Pu River.
"And hundreds of boats and rafts are lined up on the shore. The grain and grass that Yuan Shao transported from Baimadu will be gathered at Weixiang grain camp, and thenThe boats and rafts were transported along the Pu River to the front line of Lihu.
The grain camp was right in front of us, and the enemy seemed not to notice it at all.
"My Lord, that old boy Yuan Shao is completely unprepared. What are you waiting for? Hurry up and cross the river." Yan Liang shouted excitedly.
Looking at the silent enemy camp, Yuan Fang suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. He always felt that the robbery seemed to go too smoothly.
Although the arrow is already on the string, it has to be fired.
Yuan Fang had no choice but to put aside his doubts and led his army to continue upstream. Within three miles, he found a shallow water with water just above his lower abdomen.
Yuan Fang led 5,000 elite troops, waded quietly across Puyang, then turned back, heading all the way to the grain camp in Weixiang.
When the first ray of dawn rose, Yuan Fang had led his troops to sneak close to the enemy camp 500 steps away.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Deep trenches dug around the grain camp, with two layers of antlers arranged. There are also sentries at every ten steps and post at every five steps in the camp. The defense looks very tight.
The more tightly the enemy's defenses become, the more at ease Yuan Fang feels.
The opportunity cannot be missed, now is the time!
Getting on his horse, Fang Tian pointed his halberd, and Yuan Fang said sternly: "Soldiers, follow me to destroy the enemy camp and burn Yuan Shao's grain and grass¡ª¡ª"
"kill!"
The blood of the five thousand soldiers was boiling. They shouted in unison and rushed away like wild beasts out of their cages.
Yuan Fang rode his horse like flying, danced his halberd in the sky, and shot out like lightning. He took the lead and led his soldiers to charge wildly.
Dang Dang Dang~~
In the enemy camp, the sound of warning gongs suddenly sounded. The Northern Army, who discovered the enemy's situation, quickly gathered towards the line of the camp wall.
When Yuan Fang rushed to a hundred steps, arrows were like rain. It has arrived roaring.
The ape's arms shook, and Fang Tian's painted halberd danced into an iron curtain, deflecting all the incoming arrows, which could not hurt Yuan Fang.
???????????? The officers and men under their command held their shields high and held their swords in their hands, charging desperately against the rain of arrows.
Yuan Fang took the lead and headed straight for the camp gate. Relying on the speed of the red rabbit horse, the enemy's two rounds of arrow rain had not yet arrived. He has already rushed to the camp gate.
A neighing sound. The red rabbit horse jumped into the air, leaped over the ditch several feet high, and headed straight for the gate.
The soldiers of the Northern Army at the camp gate were all shocked and stunned. They were all shocked by Yuan Fang's shocking leap. He was panicked for a moment.
in a blink. Yuan Fang was riding alone, with Fang Tian's 140-pound halberd, coupled with the strength of the mid-level bone forging. There is also the speed bonus of the red rabbit horse, which blasts towards the enemy's door like a millstone.
Click!
With a shocking roar, Nuo Da's camp gate was blown to pieces, and the flying fragments made the enemy soldiers scream in pain.
Yuan Fang rode alone into the enemy camp, and was immediately surrounded by several enemy soldiers. He swept the halberd in his hand in all directions, and the enemy soldiers on the left and right were torn into pieces like paper.
Screams suddenly started, and the enemy soldiers were afraid of Yuan Fang's power, so no one dared to approach. Yuan Fang actually captured the camp gate with his own strength.
At this time, a large number of follow-up horses arrived and built the trench with wooden planks. Hundreds of Confederate soldiers poured into the enemy camp like a tide.
Success, break camp!
Large numbers of Southern troops poured into the enemy camp. The Northern troops guarding the camp were afraid that they would not be able to defeat them, so they began to retreat and flee in all directions.
Yuan Fang rushed into the camp on horseback and looked around, but he saw granaries one after another, all full, and every one was filled with grain and grass.
The soldiers entering the camp have already lit torches and are preparing to burn the grain camp.
However, Yuan Fang suddenly felt that something was wrong and shouted: "Wait a minute and set the fire!"
All the troops stopped and looked at their lord blankly.
"Yuan Shao suffered a loss in the past, and he should have learned a lesson. He should at least defend the grain camp with heavy troops and generals. It seems that the robbery of the camp this time is a little easier",
With his sword eyebrows narrowed, Yuan Fang suddenly thought of something and hurriedly rode his horse to a granary. Fang Tian's halberd stabbed hard into a grain bag.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? No grains of grain leaked out of the bag, but there were only damaged areas, and what came out were weeds.
Falling into the trap!
Yuan Fang was shocked. Without saying a word, he turned around and walked away, shouting: "The enemy is cheating. The whole army must retreat quickly."
At this moment, Yuan Fang saw through Yuan Shao's trick.
Using cavalry to attack his grain route is only the first step of this strategy. The second step is to lure him to come and rob the grain. If you guessed correctly, the third step should be to launch an ambush.
"What a clever trick to lure the enemy. The one who can come up with this trick must be Ju Shou."
Yuan Fang ShenHe quickly turned around and led his troops straight to the camp gate.
At this moment, I suddenly heard shouts of killing rising from all sides of the grain camp, and countless rockets were shooting from all directions in the sky.
The food camp was filled with hay, and flammable materials such as kerosene, saltpeter, etc. were hidden. As soon as the fire rain fell, it immediately burst into flames.
In an instant, the entire grain camp was filled with fireworks, almost turning into a sea of ??fire.
Fire broke out everywhere, and the situation took a turn for the worse.
Yuan Fang did not lose his position and just rode his horse back towards the camp gate, because before he decided to rob the camp, he knew that there would be risks, and he was already prepared for any eventuality.
The fire was raging, but Yuan Fang was as calm as water.
The Red Rabbit horse was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he had already reached the camp gate. Just as he was about to rush out, a sudden change occurred.
On both sides of the camp gate, several groups of Northern troops suddenly shot out, each holding a torch, and swarmed into the ditch outside the camp.
There was obviously something flammable hidden in the trench. In an instant, fire snakes were everywhere, and the raging fire formed a wall of fire, blocking Yuan Fang's path.
"Xu~~"
Yuan Fang reined in the horse's hooves fiercely and stopped in front of the wall of fire.
He raised his eyes and looked into the distance, but outside the wall of fire, he saw a young general standing proudly a few steps away with his sword drawn. He was looking at Yuan Fang, who was sealed by the fire, with a sarcastic look and a smile.
That young general is Guan Yu¡¯s adopted son, and so is Guan Ping.
"Little thief Yuan Fang, considering your many tricks, you must have finally fallen into the trap today. This time, even if you have great abilities, I see how you can escape from this sea of ??fire, haha~~"
Yuan Fang has obtained information about Guan Ping from Liu An's memory, so he can naturally recognize who the laughing young general is.
Facing the wall of fire and the maniacally laughing man, Yuan Fang showed no fear at all. Instead, endless confidence surged between his brows.
"A wall of fire wants to kill me, you are too happy too soon!"
With a will as strong as iron, Yuan Fang turned the red rabbit and took a few steps back. He clamped the horse's belly and galloped up towards the wall of fire that was several feet wide. (To be continued)
