Chapter 77 Attacking Jiangdong (Added Update)

I don't know when the wind started, and it was a rare strong wind in early spring. The fire quickly spread around with the wind, and everywhere it passed was full of ashes.

Tai Shici looked back at the fire spreading around with the wind behind him. His face was gloomy and about to drip out of water. For the first time since he led the army, he was forced to retreat in embarrassment, and even the food and fodder had no time to carry it. Fortunately, there were not many grain and fodder in the camp. The grain and fodder of the army were transferred through Yuzhang County. Otherwise, the army could not raise so much food and fodder when it returned to Yuzhang County for a while.

Han Beware of looking at the fire behind him with lingering fear. Just now, Xu Shu was stunned when he lit the fire. He didn't expect that Xu Shu really dared to order the fire. Now it seems that the wind will spread more than a hundred miles after the fire.

The fire mixed with black smoke and the soldiers couldn't stand it. Han Dang looked at Tai Shici: "Ziyi, I'm afraid this fire will stop for a while. Seeing that the wind is going to burn here soon, you'd better go quickly."

Tai Shici nodded and said, "Let's go." Ten thousand troops went to Yuzhang County. In Yuzhang County, they also had a camp built when they came to You County, but they didn't expect to use it now.

Xu Shu's army also retreated, but Xu Shu only retreated 20 miles with his army. There is a small pool here. The army is resting around the pool. Buckets of water are splashed around by soldiers from the pool, and soldiers clean up the bushes around. Ten thousand troops worked together to clean up all the trees and weeds within a thousand feet of the pool and splashed them with water in just a quarter of an hour. The originally dry ground was wet and even a little muddy at this time.

The fire spread quickly, and soon arrived at the place where Xu Shu's army rested. Although they are ready, they are still a little uneasy to look at the burning fire soldiers. The distance of thousands of feet is nothing to the fire that will spread for more than a hundred miles. The soldiers may be burned to death.

Xu Shu looked at the fire that was about to arrive and could even smell the strong smell of smoke from the air. Xu Shu said to Liu Pan, "Let everyone cover their mouths and noses with a damp cloth."

Liu Pan immediately took several personal soldiers around to convey Xu Shu's orders, and also prepared a wet cloth for himself and Xu Shu.

Xu Shuou turned his head and looked at Zhao Lei and said, " Wrap the grain and grass tightly around the army, and cover the inside of the grain and grass with a cloth." Zhao Lei did not dare to neglect and immediately ordered the soldiers to carry a truck of grain and fodder around the army.

After the order, Xu Shu also covered his mouth and nose with a wet cloth and looked at the surging fire.

The fire has not yet arrived, but the strong smell of smoke has made it difficult for people to breathe. The soldiers covered their mouths and noses with thick wet cloths and breathed with difficulty. They went in and let the fire stop here. The grain and grass around the army effectively isolated the hot high temperature. The soldiers on the inside of the grain and grass looked at each other with their eyes and vigilantly. As soon as the previous grain and grass splashed on the grain and grass, it was poured out by the following water before it could burn.

Although the simple camp allowed the army to survive in the fire for the time being, Xu Shu knew that it would not last long. People are always tired. Once Mars is not extinguished, the whole army will be destroyed.

Xu Shu looked up at the red sky burned by the fire from time to time. He frowned and frowned. The wet cloth covering their mouths and noses has been changed several times. The water that springs up from nowhere in the small pool is less and less and is not enough for the army. From time to time, there is a violent cough. Come on.

Xu Shu took off the dry wet cloth and handed it to his back. Zhou Cang's wry smile came from behind him: "The military division has no water." Xu Shu didn't say anything and covered his mouth and nose again with the brocade in his hand, and his eyes stared at the sky motionless.

The sound of water droplets hit Xu Shu's face, which made Xu Shu's original frown finally unfold, and he was unconsciously relieved. Then the big raindrops fell from time to time, which made the army, which had been demoralized, cheered.

"It's raining. We're saved."

"What an endless road." Ma Liang said excitedly as the sound of raindrops hitting the armor.

Su Fei also said excitedly, "I knew that the military division would not let us die, hahaha..."

Wu Xiong looked at Xu Shu not far away with surprise in his eyes. Xu Shu ordered them to stay here. Is it a coincidence or deliberately? If it is a coincidence, he won't believe anything. How can there be so many coincidences in this world? If Xu Shu's talent is deliberately arranged, wouldn't it be able to predict the future? Although I heard that some people can learn astronomy and geography, few ordinary people can't see such people.

Xu Shu looked at the increasingly dense raindrops and laughed.

He made the right bet.

When he watched the stars at night last night, he knew that it was raining and heavy rain tonight. But this made him a little disbelief. It's spring, not to mention heavy rain or light rain, and heavy rain like tonight is even more unattainable.

The news of Liu Qi came, which made him, who was hesitant, decide to make a bet. If he was right, he could enter Jiangdong in a day, which made it more difficult for Liu Qi to take this opportunity to leave Jiangdong. If you lose the bet, it means that 10,000 troops, including himself, will be buried here. He didn't mention this to anyone. Although he knew that Liu Pan and others would agree to the gambling, he didn't want Taishici to see the flaw. If he didn't expect it wrong, then Taishici's army should be a hundred miles away.

The rain is getting more and more the fire in the distance has not even been completely extinguished. Xu Shu has ordered the army to gather. More than ten thousand troops rushed to Jiangdong in the rain, and the soil under his feet was even left with residual heat, but Xu Shu couldn't wait. If Tai Shici reacted, it would not be so easy to attack Jiangdong.

There are less than 3,000 troops left in the Taishi Ci battalion a hundred miles away, and the other soldiers and horses have been sent out by Tai Shici on the way back. The village near such a big fire is sure to escape bad luck. He has asked soldiers familiar with this place to lead the way to help those people move away for the time being, and make plans after the fire is extinguished.

The sudden drop of rain made Taishi Ci stunned. Then the heavy rain made Taishici suddenly realize. He finally understood why Xu Shu dared to risk the world to ignite the fire. It turned out that he had known about the heavy rain.

It's really hateful!

Tai Shici suddenly got up with a gloomy face. At this time, he is more than a hundred miles away. I'm afraid it's too late to stop him. From You County to Jiangdong is Ai County, and he was already in Xinwu County at this time. Thinking of this, Tai Shici shouted to the soldiers, "You immediately gather here with my order and the 30,000 troops scattered there immediately."

"No!" The soldiers turned around and left, and the rapid sound of horses' hoofs sounded that more than a dozen soldiers rushed out of the camp.

Tai Shici walked into the account and wrote down the news of Xu Shu's attack on Jiangdong, and then shouted outside the account, "Come on."

As soon as his voice fell, he saw a personal soldier coming in. Before he could speak, Tai Shici had handed over the bamboo slip to him and said, "You immediately send this letter to Wu Jun to the lord."

"No." The soldiers took the order and left.

After ordering, Tai Shici sent out a large number of spies to pay close attention to the situation of Xu Shu's army, and then asked the general Han Dang to inform him.
