What everyone didn't know was that the Qin army had already targeted the Han army.

Unless the Han army can take the risk and choose the east, catch the Qin army by surprise, and perhaps escape disaster, no matter what the four armies choose, the Qin army will not move and will only rush towards the army of Han.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the coalition forces moved so quickly that the Qin army was overwhelmed and unable to grasp the coalition's actions.

However, this is a bit wishful thinking.

Obviously, the generals of Han, Chu, and Wei did not believe that the Qin army would be so useless, so the final western battlefield passed smoothly into the hands of the Zhao army.

However, Lian Po didn't care at all about such an arrangement.

This is the domineering power from a big country - even if these more than 10,000 cavalry are lost, it won't hurt them at all.

Although strategically, Lian Po can despise the enemy, but strategically, Lian Po still attaches great importance to it. .z.

After assigning the task area and order, in order to burn the food as quickly and completely as possible, the four-person team immediately detailed the marching route and handover method.

Because of the consistency of the goals, naturally no one made trouble on this issue. In addition, this plan has been brewing for three full months, and each of them has thought about it carefully in their hearts. Now, after confirming and complementing each other, A relatively detailed plan was soon released.

Of course, General Lian Po still plays the most critical role in this.

It can be said that the entire plan is based on Lian Po's plan, and the repairs are only insignificant details.

The generals who finalized the plan immediately went back to their respective homes.

Taking advantage of the daylight, the Wei army was soon ready.

Although Qin Jun, who was still shouting and cursing outside the camp, also saw that there seemed to be some changes in the coalition camp, not long after they were excited, the silence of the past returned to the camp again.

It was as if that change had never happened.

If Wang Lu were here, he would definitely get to the bottom of this situation.

Even any veteran will understand that any ripple on the battlefield is not accidental and cannot be guaranteed. This ripple is caused by a huge boulder quietly sneaking into the bottom of the water.

It's a pity that the confrontation in March still inevitably tired the soldiers of the Qin army.

Seeing that the coalition camp had returned to calm, the captain of the Qin Army naturally did not pay attention to the slightest movement just now, and naturally did not report it to the superiors.

What he didn't know was that because of his numbness, the Qin army missed an excellent opportunity to counterattack.

Just imagine, if the Qin army reported this situation in time, although Wang Lunzhi might not be able to guess the situation of the coalition forces, he would definitely order the scouts and Heibingtai to find out the matter at all costs.

The coalition forces are about to set off, and it is almost impossible to keep secrets internally.

In less than two days, the news that the coalition forces were going to burn food would reach Wang Lu's ears.

Once the Qin army learns about it in advance, it can either surround the coalition forces with troops to prevent them from sending out troops to burn food, or ambush the army on the way to burn food, and then follow the defeated army into the camp, all of which are opportunities for victory.

Two days were not even enough for the Wei army, which was the first to set off, to complete its sweep of the east.

As a result, the coalition forces that were supposed to be proactive instantly fell into passivity.

It's a pity that on the battlefield, there is never an if.

Nothing seems to have changed, whether it is the Qin army or the coalition forces.

On this ordinary night, the coalition camp was quietly opened, and a large number of grain trucks entered as before.

Late at night, the grain transport team that had unloaded the goods quietly left. However, compared with when they came, the number of people in the grain transport team was more than doubled, and there were many cavalry among them.

Yes, Lord Xinling used the grain transport team as a cover and quietly mobilized 10,000 infantry and 2,000 cavalry out of the camp.

This move was learned from Zhao Kuo of the State of Zhao.

Because of the cover of night and the squeaking sound of grain trucks,

It was really impossible to distinguish the noisy sound of horse hooves, let alone distinguish which ones were the grain transport team and which ones were the main army in the dark night.

The leading general is still Jin Bi, one of the few veteran generals in Wei.

The grain transport team hiding more than 10,000 troops, after leaving the camp, plunged into the mountains and forests to the north. Then the main army headed east, bypassed Luo City, and rushed to the east of Zhou Wangji on the outskirts of each city.

At the last moment when Yue Yue was laid off, Jin Bi and his army finally rushed to the endless fields.

Without hesitation, Jin Bi immediately ordered the fire!

Thousands of torches were lit together on the edge of the fields, and a fire dragon instantly appeared on the vast plains of the Central Plains.

The breeze blew gently, and the little sparks were blown away. In the dry field, wherever the little sparks blew, black smoke instantly rose up. Within a few minutes, another group of flames rose up.

The blazing flames almost completely illuminated the sky!

In an instant, the village field dog started barking enthusiastically.

The people who were still sleeping gradually woke up. When they opened the door, before the curses could be uttered, a wave of heat, with the aroma of cooked millet mixed with the smell of burnt rice, hit their faces!

Qian Shou, who was still sleepy, finally woke up. Looking at the sky that had been burned to red not far away, Qian Shou was shocked - wasn't that direction the direction of his own farmland? !

He quickly picked up the basin from the house and started banging it.

"It's gone! It's gone!" A rough voice suddenly sounded in the village.

Immediately afterwards, the lights of one thatched house after another were turned on, and the creaking doors were opened one after another.

Everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them.

Without having time to think about anything, people picked up the basins and filled them with water to put out the fire.

For a time, the originally silent village became completely lively. Regardless of men and women, young or old, everyone picked up whatever they could to ride the water and joined the queue to put out the fire.

Unfortunately, when they ran frantically to the place where the fire broke out, what was waiting for them were long shining knives.

The two men who arrived first had already fallen under the sword.

Under the light of the fire, the gurgling blood became more and more red and terrifying.

"Sir, put out the fire!" The old man in the village tried to reason with the soldiers in front of him.

Listening to the crackling sound behind him and looking at the eager people in front of him, the Chief of Wei State, who was also a member of the lower class, felt a little intolerable, but when he thought of military law, that trace of intolerance was quickly suppressed.

The long sword struck a horizontal line between the old man and himself. The commander of the Wei army said coldly: "Anyone who crosses this line will die."

As soon as the words fell, the crowd exploded.

Needless to say, everyone knew that the fire was started by the soldiers in front of them.

But why!

If you want to fight, just fight. Why are you burning the food of ordinary people like us!

We didn’t provoke you. No matter who is in the world, we will pay according to the regulations. We are innocent!

Obviously, these people don't understand that being weak is a sin, a heinous sin.

Even as he was talking, the fire was still spreading, and it was uncontrollable when they saw it. Everyone saw it and became anxious in their hearts.

Resist? Seeing the bright red blood and the fallen corpse under the firelight, everyone's hearts suddenly trembled.

If you don't resist, once the food is burned out, your whole family will be finished...

"You can't burn food!" the people prayed.

The only response to them was silent indifference and increasingly rampant flames.

"If the food is burned, we will die, so we might as well fight! It's better to die than to die!" A voice suddenly shouted loudly from the front of the crowd.

Immediately, several farm men responded.

"Folks, follow

I! ” Before the man who encouraged the people had finished speaking, an arrow suddenly appeared in his throat.

When the few strong men around him saw this, their blood and courage suddenly rose. They picked up the buckets around them and were about to "die together" with the heavily armed Wei army.

It's a pity that a mere wooden barrel can't stop Wei Jun's sharp swords and spears.

After a few "Puff, puff" sounds, several big men who had risen up to resist fell into a pool of blood.

The brutal massacre scene instantly silenced the scene. It was a pity that in that era when the people were not enlightened, even though everyone was extremely angry after such a disaster, no one dared to stand up.

The frightened child even cried out loudly, and his mouth was tightly covered by the adults.

I was afraid that the little cry would be regarded as a voice of resistance and be killed by the damn devil.

As a result, hundreds of villagers, facing less than a group of Wei troops, could only stand on the field ridge, quietly watching the flames turn their year's hard work into nothing.

With just a cup of tea, a long and thin dragon has transformed into a huge fire demon!

Seeing that the flames are beyond human control. Only then did the command from the commander of the camp come from the distance to close the team.

Soon, the soldiers of the Wei army disappeared like a tide, but the villagers rushed into the fire scene without hesitation, carrying basins of warm water.

With a sound of "Zila", basins of water were poured on the flames, but they could not shake the power of the fire demon at all. Even the people who were close were almost burned.

Seeing the flames that were nearly two feet high, the people helplessly sat on the ground!

The cry instantly resounded through the village and spread to the entire Zhou Wangji.

The fire burned all night, until all the crops that could be burned were burned, and then the fire demon gradually dissipated.

It took a whole night to put out the fire, but it was a pity that the fire demon was not completely eliminated until there was nothing left to burn.

Looking around, the originally golden area has turned into a dark area, and the smell of burning is accompanied by curls of black smoke, rising straight into the sky.

But such scenes were repeated to the east of Zhou Wangji.

As for the instigator, he had already rushed to the next city with his troops.
