Three Kingdoms

Perhaps from ancient times, humans have discovered that things like fire can not only bring warmth, but also bring cooked food and even drive away mosquitoes and wild animals, creating a comfortable living environment. Therefore, the use of fire is like carving It is as if it has penetrated into the bone marrow, and under certain circumstances, it can even be learned by oneself without a teacher.

Most of the fires are similar after burning, only the way of starting the fire is different.

When it comes to arson equipment, for the soldiers of General Zhengxi, if they are second, there are really no one who dares to be first. If a soldier receives the task of setting fire, in addition to the basic personal outdoor survival equipment of tinder and flint, he will also be issued some additional cans of kerosene refinery, as well as ropes soaked in oil, etc. Wait, enough for any soldier with a little creativity to play various tricks on how to light fires.

Although the camp at Shiliang is surrounded by water on three sides and a gentle slope on one side, it is considered a dangerous place, but it is only suitable for ordinary soldiers and for large-scale attacks. If you want to target Ling Jie and Liao Hua, Such a small-scale elite force can actually ignore the so-called dangerous terrain.

In the middle of the night, a raging fire suddenly broke out in the Shiliang military stronghold, and the oilcloth and linoleum that were transported became excellent fire starters. Even the Jingzhou soldiers in the military stronghold rushed out of the mountain stream in panic. There was no way to get water from the fire, and there was no way to control the increasingly strong fire.

In addition, on the opposite side of the mountain stream, hidden arrows were shot from time to time, shooting down the soldiers who went to the mountain stream to fetch water. Although not many were killed, if all the soldiers in the military camp rushed out to fetch water, Liao Hua and this group of people couldn't shoot even if each person had six arms, but human nature is always like this. When he saw someone in front of him died at the water fetching place, he was afraid, hesitated and refused to step forward, and then changed Many people just followed the same example and were unwilling to rush out and be fearless warriors, which caused the flames in the camp to spread more and more, and eventually became uncontrollable.

Zhang Fei was in the military camp. He had already taken off his armor a long time ago and would not let go of the wine jar. Most people who like to drink, or have seen others like to drink, have seen a strange phenomenon. If you drink a jar of water, you don't have to go to the toilet. But if you only drink half a jar of water, I'm afraid most people will have the urge to urinate. …

This is what happened to Zhang Fei. After drinking a jar of wine, Zhang Fei was already a little tipsy, but he still wanted to drink half a jar. After drinking another half of the jar, he slowed down his drinking speed. Although there was no appetizer, that is Some hard and teeth-piercing dried meat, but it seemed that Zhang Fei still planned to drink half the jar of wine before he was done, otherwise he would feel uncomfortable and drink bit by bit.

When the flames rose and chaos gradually arose, most of the people in the military camp, like Zhang Fei, took off their armor. Some were already asleep, while others were still tossing and turning because their compatriots were grinding their teeth, farting and talking in their sleep. They didn't sleep, so most of the soldiers were confused at first. Many people thought they were in a dream. It was only when they saw the flames coming and the heat wave hitting them that they suddenly woke up and screamed in fear. Running and jumping around.

The tent was ignited, the robes were ignited, and the hair was ignited. It seemed that everything was ignited. There were flames everywhere, and figures bumped into each other in the light of the fire. In addition, the autumn wind at night was extremely dry. The wind helped the fire, and the fire borrowed the power of the wind. As if in the blink of an eye, the flames spread from the back camp, making half of the sky red!

Someone in the camp shouted in panic, "The Zhengxi troops are coming! It's the Zhengxi troops who are coming!"

The voice with a slight Jingxiang accent resonated with more Jingzhou soldiers in the military camp. They looked around in panic. They didn't know whether they should rush to put out the fire or prepare to meet the enemy. They didn't know whether now was the time. To get the tub and bucket, or to get the armor and weapons.

People were hesitant, but the flames did not stop at all. By the time Zhang Fei put on his armor and walked out of the tent, the heat was already overwhelming. There was a "whoosh" sound and sparks rushed towards him, almost hitting Zhang Fei's face. His beard, which looks like a steel beard, has been permed into twisted curls with ion perm.

Zhang Fei trembled and woke up from the drunkenness. He jumped on his feet and yelled to calm down the soldiers, and then ordered the soldiers to be mobilized. When the soldiers in the camp saw someone commanding them, they gradually recovered from the headless state and became a headless fly. After all, the fear and panic in their hearts could not be eliminated by simply eliminating them.

Most people who like to drink have extremely high conversion enzymes in their bodies. Zhang Fei's head and body were covered with big beads of sweat. On the one hand, he was frightened, and on the other hand, his body's abilities were in a critical situation. It began to run at high speed, and the sweat on his forehead and eyebrows kept dripping down. Zhang Fei didn't bother to wipe it off, but just strode forward. Suddenly he frowned and took a few steps forward, grabbing a man who was panicking. The soldier with a Jingzhou accent who was running around and yelling slapped the soldier, staggering him, and shouted: "What are you calling! If you continue to disturb the morale of the army, I will kill you!"

Although Zhang Fei's men retained their strength, five red marks soon appeared on the soldier's face. The soldier who was slapped lowered his head, hugged his face, and shrank his head.

"What are you still doing! Why don't you go put out the fire!" Zhang Fei yelled angrily, wanting to slap him again.

The soldier who was slapped quickly lowered his head and agreed, and then seemed to be in a daze. Instead of turning around to get something to put out the fire, he bumped into Zhang Fei!

Zhang Fei turned his head and walked forward without noticing it for a moment, but the guard beside Zhang Fei saw the soldier's unusual movements. He quickly yelled to be careful, then rushed forward, blocked in front of Zhang Fei, and twisted his hand. I have to draw my sword...

"Pfft", the soldier ran into the guard's arms, and then quickly jumped back like a frightened rabbit, disappearing into the swaying firelight and shadow with his hands and feet, " You killed our brother! We want revenge!"

At this moment, Zhang Fei discovered that a dagger had been inserted deeply into his guard's ribs. "Damn it! Catch him!"

However, the camp was originally in chaos, and with the fire and fire shadows swaying around, people were running everywhere. In a trance, no one could be seen. How could they catch up and catch them?

"assassin!"

"Protect the general!"

The guards roared one after another, pulled out their swords, and surrounded Zhang Fei. They stared at any soldier who came slightly closer, ready to kill them at any time.

"He's from Jingzhou! It's the accent of Jingzhou!" Zhang Fei's eyes widened and he looked around, feeling that in addition to his own guards, the soldiers who followed from Jingzhou were all potential threats.

The chaos in the military stronghold became more and more chaotic. Zhang Fei was on guard against the assassins, but the soldiers in the military stronghold did not dare to go to Zhang Fei. The fire finally broke out with overwhelming force and there was no way to save it...

A dozen figures quietly took advantage of the chaos and climbed over the wall of the military village. Like monkeys in the mountains, they crossed the mountain stream along the original rope and disappeared on the other side of the mountain stream.

The Shiliang camp was burned by fire. Guan Yu, who was several miles away from the entrance of Wuli Jianjian, did not notice at all. All his energy was focused on preparing to defend against the defenses that might come from the north in the darkness. All the people were focused on the north, and no one even went around the mountain ridge to see the faint red light on the other side of the mountain.

When Guan Yu escorted the last vehicle and set fire to Wuli Jiankou, and walked back, he realized that something was wrong...

"Third Brother!" Under the faint light of the sky, Guan Yu looked at the Shiliang Military Village that had been burned to a black ground. Even Danfeng's eyes, which were usually squinted inside, were widened. "What on earth is going on here?" thing!"

Zhang Fei lowered his head anxiously, his face stained with black ash, and did not reply. Zhang Fei didn't know what was going on. The inexplicable fire, the inexplicable assassination, and the lingering lingering scent of alcohol made Zhang Fei's head feel like a bucket of paste, and he couldn't grasp the key points at all.

"Second, second general..." A guard beside Zhang Fei said timidly, facing Guan Yu's cannibalistic gaze, "My general... he was assassinated last night..."

When Guan Yu heard this, he immediately looked Zhang Fei up and down. Seeing that there didn't seem to be any injuries on his body, he was relieved and his tone became more gentle: "Come! Tell me in detail, what is going on!"

"Jingzhou accent?"

After listening to the report, Guan Yu frowned and looked around.

On both sides of the mountain road, the soldiers who were originally in the stone beams were sitting in groups on the left and in groups on the right. They were all gray-headed. Some were fairly well-equipped with armor, and some didn't even have weapons. They were just holding on to the wooden basin they used to put out the fire. Some even had cold water thrown on them because of fighting the fire, and are now shivering in the slightly cold autumn morning.

"Withdraw, withdraw..." Guan Yu sighed, "Whatever happened, we'll talk about it after we withdraw to Anhan..."

Zhang Fei suddenly raised his head, with tears welling up in the corners of his eyes. "Second brother, second brother, I...I..."

Guan Yu stepped forward and patted Zhang Fei on the shoulder. Without saying anything, he walked forward and stood in front of the Shiliang military stronghold full of debris. He was silent for a while, and then shouted an order for the soldiers to gather. Reorganized the team and headed slowly towards Anhan...

…………………………

Wuli Jian, although the terrain is complicated, since Zhang Fei can find a way around it, it is not too difficult for Ling Jie, Liao Hua and others, but now anyone sees the blush on Ling Jie's face I couldn't help but want to laugh, but I couldn't help it anymore, so I covered it with my hands, and the sound was like a series of stuffy farts.

"What a joke!" Ling Jie cursed in a low voice with dissatisfaction. Even now, Ling Jie still feels that his face is burning and a little painful, and even his back molars seem to be a little loose. Damn, this black guy has really strong hands! Fortunately for him, he was not able to stab him with a knife.

"Alas..." Liao Hua chuckled and joked, "You know, it is said that our Captain Ling personally entered the enemy camp and retired with great success... Those who don't know, they thought that our Captain Ling was on board. Which brothel, and then didn’t give any money..."

"Ah ha ha ha..." Everyone couldn't help it and burst into laughter.

Ling Jie wanted to darken his face, but he couldn't help it. He held his face in his hands, pointed at Liao Hua and cursed with a smile: "Looking at your decent appearance, I didn't expect that you are also full of bad ideas!"

"Haha, Liao didn't expect Captain Ling to be so smart and brave, he dared to sneak into the camp directly and almost killed the enemy general. It's a pity that God didn't show his face. Otherwise, this time would be the icing on the cake. Another great achievement. Give me one as a gift!" Liao Hua said, then looked around, "If we really succeed, there will definitely be a reward or something, and our brothers will naturally be able to follow Colonel Ling and have a meal! Hey, It’s such a pity…”

Ling Jie understood, nodded, walked forward, and said with a smile: "Isn't it just a meal? You have gone around so many circles. When you go back, everyone counts, I treat you! I can't afford big fish and meat, but Steamed buns and light wine are indispensable! I’ll let you eat until you can’t even stand up!”

When everyone heard this, they cheered in low voices. Their strength seemed to be invisibly stronger, and their climbing speed also accelerated. It seemed that they were ready to return to the camp for a good meal in the next moment.

Ling Jie glanced at Liao Hua slightly, then nodded to him.

Frontline commanding generals like Ling Jie, Liao Hua and others do not have too many personal guards, so they do not pay much attention to the majesty of generals. It is more important to maintain the friendship and ties between brothers and compatriots, otherwise they will be at the mercy of swords and guns every day. Being on the front line, there is no guarantee that you might not notice some dangerous situation at some point. If you don’t have the brothers around you who are risking their lives to protect you, whether you can come back without hesitation every time is naturally a big question...

As for the majesty of a serious general, we have to wait until he becomes a real captain. Like Ling Jie now, with only a dozen or so soldiers around him, being called a captain is just a favor given by everyone. , compared with those generals and colonels who have thousands of soldiers and hundreds of personal soldiers, there is still some gap.

Of course, if you really want to become a strategizing general, you really can't fight with ordinary soldiers at the grassroots level every day. You have to think more about strategic and tactical matters. It's OK to show it occasionally, but it won't work for a long time. After all, you can't grab it. For the work of grassroots sergeants and generals, the division of labor will naturally be different depending on the position.

Furthermore, if you become a general, you will still have to eat coarse food every day and sleep in thatched huts, just like ordinary soldiers. In the Han Dynasty when feudal hierarchy was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, what desire for promotion and lofty ideals should the generals under their command have?

Therefore, for Ling Jie now, when he went to the battlefield, he had a talk, and after the military order was given, everyone moved forward together. When they returned to the camp, they drank and ate meat together to connect with each other. This was naturally the most important thing to do. These were originally done by Gong Jun before. Now that Ling Jie has changed from a deputy to a full-time official, he has not yet adapted. After being reminded by Liao Hua, Ling Jie reacted and quickly made some repairs. The effect was indeed good.

Well, this Liao Hua seems to be a good partner.

Ling Jie looked up at the sky and said silently in his heart, Colonel Gong, what do you think?
