Fazheng raised his head slightly, then gently closed his eyes, greedily breathing in the bloody air.
He already knew his destination, and now it was time to use the blood of the Liangzhou soldiers to completely transform him.
"call..."
Fazheng glanced around. The battle had ended long ago, and the Yizhou Army was gathering prisoners and horses.
Both the Wu Feng camp and the 30,000 barbarian troops besieging Han Sui were cleaning the battlefield at this moment, and no troops went to pursue him.
Han Sui was at the end of his rope. As long as Liu Zhang was determined to pursue him, Han Sui would definitely be unable to escape.
Only with Han Sui's death can Liangzhou be truly pacified.
"General Wei, don't you plan to pursue Han Sui?"
Fazheng couldn't help but look at Liu Zhang in confusion. He didn't believe that the wise and powerful Liu Zhang could not understand such a simple truth.
"Takanao, didn't you see five iron shield formations during the pursuit? That is the most powerful trap formation under my command."
"General Wei, there are only a few thousand people there at most. I'm afraid they can't stop Han Sui's cavalry, right?"
The Iron Shield Formation was indeed powerful, but Han Sui could completely ignore them and choose to bypass them from the side.
The terrain near Didao City is generally relatively broad. Although there are many mountains around it, it still cannot stop the cavalry.
Even if the Yizhou infantry defeated the Liangzhou cavalry just now, Fazheng would not think that those iron bastards could catch up with the cavalry.
After all, in terms of speed, cavalry will always be the king. Especially the defeated cavalry, their speed is simply amazing!
The corners of Liu Zhang's mouth raised slightly, showing a very confident look.
"Of course it's not just the trapped camp, there are at least three ambushes waiting for him!"
"Han Sui is still just dreaming about escaping back to Jincheng!"
After the layout of the three top wise men Xun You, Liu Zhang personally escaped from the sea of fire as a bait, how could Han Sui not be completely left in Longxi!
"It seems that there are no soldiers and horses of General Wei in Didao City! I wonder how General Wei saw through my plan?"
Fazheng could only shake his head and smile bitterly. According to Liu Zhang's plan, at least 60,000 to 70,000 troops would be dispatched!
This is undoubtedly the entire Yizhou Army's troops in Longxi County.
If this is the case, then the fire in Didao City undoubtedly burned Lonely?
Liu Zhang nodded. Now that he had time, he didn't mind explaining to Fa Zheng.
"I have all elite soldiers under my command, how can I be willing to let them die in the sea of fire? Of all the soldiers in Didao City, only the Wufeng Battalion is the only one, and the rest of the army has already withdrawn."
"As for the loopholes in your plan, Liu Ye actually saw it."
"The messenger showed up in Hanyang County a month ago, but why did he delay for a month and show up when the army arrived in Didao City?"
"The letter stated that the chief of the Qiang tribe gathered tens of thousands of Qiang soldiers to attack Han Sui. This incident must have happened recently, otherwise Yizhou would not have known about it. But Ma Teng knew what happened too clearly Bar?"
"Ma Teng asked the general to garrison Didao to prevent Han Sui from taking advantage of the chaos to escape. This loophole is too big. Even if everything goes as stated in the letter, Han Sui will not be stupid enough to crawl into the mountains after the Jincheng is broken. , let alone go to Longxi."
Fazheng frowned. The loopholes pointed out by Liu Zhang were not fatal in fact and were not worth Liu Zhang's aggressive action.
Tens of thousands of troops left the city to ambush that night, and there must be absolute evidence that everything was a conspiracy.
"General Wei, did you mobilize tens of thousands of troops based on these alone to cooperate with Han Sui in this scene?"
"Of course not! But the moment I entered Didao City, I was sure there was a problem in the city!"
Hearing Liu Zhang's words, Fazheng became even more confused.
Didao is an empty city, and the overall layout is very careful. Every place is inspected by Fa Zheng himself to ensure nothing goes wrong!
Where did Liu Zhang discover the problem?
"It smells like kerosene."
Liu Zhang did not continue to talk about it, but directly pointed out the problem.
"Kerosera? Impossible! I worked very hard to block the smell of kerosene!"
After hearing this reason, Fa Zheng was even more unacceptable.
First of all, the smell of kerosene itself is not very big, and it is not very distinguishable. Secondly, in order to prevent Liu Zhang from discovering the kerosene, Fazheng almost always stored it in hidden places, and more of it was scattered on the roof.
All places in Didao City where kerosene was sprinkled were covered by Fa Zheng, and other smells were also covered up.
In fact, Fazheng's layout in Didao City was already perfect. The only thing to blame was his bad luck in meeting Liu Zhang!
The kerosene used in the Han Dynasty was no longer refined from animal fats and vegetable fats.
The kerosene used by Fa Zheng, commonly known as fierce kerosene, is completely refined from petroleum.
Therefore, these kerosenes have a faint smell of gasoline!
The Han Dynasty didn't know anything about gasoline, so neither Fazheng nor Xun You and others noticed anything strange after entering the city.
Even Liu Ye, who saw through Han Sui's conspiracy, still failed to fully understand Han Sui's specific plan.
If Liu Zhang, who was extremely sensitive to the smell of gasoline, had not entered the city, the Yizhou Army would never have been able to respond so appropriately.
"Xiao Nao, the smell of kerosene is difficult for you to distinguish, but for me, it is too recognisable! The moment I walked into Didao City Gate, I was very sure that the city was full of kerosene!"
Fazheng was completely shocked by Liu Zhang. At this moment, he really didn't know whether he should cry or laugh.
Such a perfect plan failed in the end!
"It can only be said that time is destiny! The Liangzhou Army should be defeated like this!"
Liu Zhang had a faint smile on his face and looked very calm.
Looking at Fazheng who was frightened by him, Liu Zhang was laughing in his heart.
In fact, Liu Zhang was completely exaggerating. After entering Didao City, he did smell a strange smell, but it was not like he said that he smelled kerosene immediately.
This is a very complex smell. Liu Zhang took a long time to identify it, but in the end he was just suspicious.
If it weren't for Meng Da's appearance, Liu Zhang would most likely have left it alone.
It's a pity that Liu Zhang was well aware of the relationship between Fazheng and Meng Da, and he also knew that Fazheng's actions were unusual. Coupled with Liu Ye's speculation about Ma Teng's letter, Liu Zhang finally prompted Liu Zhang to conduct a thorough investigation of Didao City.
You won’t know if you don’t check, but you’ll be shocked if you check!
The entire Didao is in a sea of oil. As long as a spark pops up in a key place, the city will immediately burst into flames!
With so much information, Xun You and the others immediately determined that Han Sui's ultimate goal was to burn Didao and completely destroy the Yizhou army.
After nightfall, Liu Zhang immediately sent various armies out of the city and all ambush them at designated locations.
As long as you see a fire burning in Didao City, it means that the war has broken out!
