"Why are Brother Jiang here?"
Jiang Qi and Chunyu Qiong were both generals under Yuan Shao, and they had a pretty good relationship.
After hearing that he had arrived, Chunyu Qiong brought people out to greet him personally.
After the two exchanged pleasantries, Jiang Qi made it clear what his purpose was.
After hearing this, Chunyu Qiong laughed disapprovingly.
"My lord, you are too worried. We are in the rear area, dozens of miles away from the front line."
"There are patrols of our army along the way, so how can Cao Jun launch a sneak attack?"
Jiang Qi said seriously,
"Having said that, we can't be careless."
Chunyu Qiong had no choice but to lead Jiang Qi towards the camp.
In ancient times, when marching and fighting, food and grass were the most important thing.
Especially when Yuan Shao conquered Cao Cao this time, he brought nearly 200,000 troops.
The amount of food and grass that needs to be consumed every day is a huge amount.
So much food and grass are stored in the military camp. Not only does it take up space, it is also very dangerous.
When the two armies are fighting, if the food and grass are burned accidentally, it will be troublesome.
Therefore, Yuan Shao ordered people to garrison most of the grain and grass brought from the rear in Wuchao, leaving only a small amount of grain and grass in the army.
After the food and grass in the camp are exhausted, they will be transported from Wuchao.
The two entered the camp and saw granaries everywhere.
"Brother Jiang, it's not that I don't want to cooperate with your work, it's just that it will take at least two days to transport so much food and grass."
Chunyu Qiong said with a sad face.
"Even if it takes two months, we have to do it. After all, this is the Lord's order."
Jiang Qi smiled and patted his shoulder.
Chunyu Qiong had no choice but to call a few lieutenants and ask them to immediately start loading the grain and grass into trucks and transfer them to other places.
Following his order, the huge camp began to get busy.
Although Jiang Qi's 20,000 troops helped, the amount of food and grass was too huge.
Sergeant Yuan was busy from noon until nightfall, but he also managed to get away with half of the goods.
"Brother Jiang, I have ordered someone to set up a banquet. Let's go drink first."
Chunyu Qiong greeted with a smile.
"Transporting grain and grass is a very important matter, so we can't be careless."
Jiang Qi shook his head.
"There are other people supervising this, so don't worry too much."
Under Chunyu Qiong's strong persuasion, Jiang Qi had no choice but to let Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang watch while he followed Chun Yuqiong to the camp.
"Come on, let's drink!"
Chunyu Qiong was worthy of the title of Wuchao Wine Fairy. When she came up, she picked up the wine jar and drank "dong dong dong".
He wiped his mouth and felt a little unhappy when he saw Jiang Qi who was just taking a sip.
"Brother Jiang, are you raising fish?"
"Brother Chunyu, it's not that I don't want to drink with you, it's just about food and grass..."
Before Jiang Qi finished speaking, he was interrupted by Chun Yuqiong.
"Just feel free to drink. If Cao Jun dares to come, I will kill them to pieces!"
Chunyu Qiong patted her chest and set a flag.
In the end, Jiang Qi couldn't stand Chunyu Qiong's efforts to persuade him to drink, and he drank heavily.
After several jars of wine, both of them were a little tipsy.
The night outside is getting darker and darker.
At this moment, a soldier hurried in from outside.
"General, there is a group of people claiming to be sent by the Lord and requesting to enter the camp."
Chunyu Qiong, who was already drunk, said with a big tongue,
"Since they are sent by the Lord, why not invite them in quickly?"
The general was about to leave when he was stopped by Jiang Qi.
"Wait a minute, who is the leader? Have you asked?"
"Reporting back to the general, the man claimed to be General Wen Chou."
The general replied.
General Wen Chou?
Why would the Lord send him to Wuchao at this juncture?
Although he was already a little drunk, Jiang Qi was always cautious and said to Chunyu Qiong,
"Brother Chunyu, just in case, let's go out and take a look."
"You are just too cautious. How could Cao Jun bypass all the protection and get here?"
Chunyu Qiong smiled, but still stood up and staggered out.
The two left the camp and went straight to the camp gate.
It's cloudless tonight and the stars are bright.
In addition, in order to transport food and grass, blazing torches were lit in the camp.
Chunyu Qiong and Jiang Qi looked over, right? Not far outside the camp, a group of troops were waiting quietly.
"Open the door!"
Chunyu Qiong gave a casual order, and then she and Jiang Qi led a group of people out of the camp.
A hundred steps away, Chunyu Qiong stopped and said lazily,
"Where is General Wen Chou?"
But he saw a burly military commander slowly riding out of the darkness.
"I didn't know General Wen Chou was coming tonight..."
Chunyu Qiong smiled and told the other party to take care of him, but before he finished speaking, his eyes widened.
Because the person standing opposite is not Wen Chou at all.
"You...are Cao Jun's Gan Ning!"
Not long ago, at the gate of Baima City, it was Zhao Yun and Gan Ning who were too brave and led their troops to charge, which led to the defeat of Chunyu Qiong and Guo Tu.
Therefore, he was deeply impressed by Gan Ning and recognized Gan Ning's identity at a glance!
"Yes, it's your grandfather and I, please die quickly!"
Gan Ning laughed ferociously, brandished his sword, and rushed forward.
Zhao Yun behind him also led Cao Jun to charge!
Chunyu Qiong was instantly frightened out of her mind. She threw all the flags she had just set behind her head, turned around and ran towards the camp.
Jiang Qi was so frightened that he woke up and ran away too!
However, Chunyu Qiong drank too much and had difficulty moving. Before he could get close to the camp gate, he was overtaken by Gan Ning.
"Suffer death!"
Gan Ning raised the knife and dropped it. Chun Yuqiong's head instantly flew up to Lao Gao, and his body fell to the ground with a crash.
A generation of Wuchao Jiuxian died in a drinking accident!
Fortunately, Chunyu Qiong attracted Gan Ning's attention, and Jiang Qi on the other side escaped into the camp.
"Close the door! Quick, close the camp door!"
Jiang Qi roared at the top of his lungs.
Sergeant Yuan at the door noticed something was wrong and hurriedly tried to close the camp door.
However, at this time, Gan Ning and Zhao Yun had already arrived!
I saw the two men raising their weapons and hitting the camp gate hard.
"Crack!"
The relatively thick camp gate was unable to withstand the combined blow of the two men, and it fell apart!
"kill!"
Gan Ning and Zhao Yun pointed at the panicked soldiers in the camp and said with murderous intent.
The elite Cao army brought by them poured into the camp like a pack of wolves descending from the mountain.
While charging and killing wantonly, Sergeant Cao's soldiers did not forget to throw the kerosene, black powder and other things they carried with them towards the granary.
As Zhao Yun put down the fire, Yuan Jun's camp instantly burst into flames, lighting up the night as if it were day!
Jiang Qi originally wanted to organize men to resist Cao's army and put out the fire.
But after seeing Zhao Yun and Gan Ning rushing left and right in the camp, as if there was no one in the desert, he was immediately frightened, and hurriedly called Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang, took his men and horses, and left Wuchao in a hurry.
