Three Kingdoms

Chapter 3287 Will the enemy die in a car accident or in a fire?

The last thing Liu Ye wanted to see was Man Chong.

It's not that there is any personal conflict between Liu Ye and Man Chong, but that Liu Ye knows that nothing good will happen once Man Chong comes to visit.

Liu Ye felt a toothache when he saw Man Chong holding the newly brought drink and drinking it quietly.

Since the war between Cao Cao and Fei Qian, Liu Ye has been trying his best not to show any attitude, running around without complaint, doing all kinds of trivial things without complaining, just to avoid attracting attention, and then getting involved In the vortex.

In his early days, Liu Ye also thought about supporting Liu Xie, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, but later he discovered that some things could not be changed through manpower. Liu Xie had problems with his character and outlook on life that he had developed since he was a child. Without major breakthroughs and changes, Liu Xie would not be able to help him and fight against Cao Cao.

Liu Ye was loyal to the Han Dynasty, but he was not foolishly loyal.

The same is true for Man Chong, but he is more in the direction of Cao Cao.

In the minds of Liu Ye and Man Chong, Fei Qian was indeed a "traitor" because many of Fei Qian's actions were contrary to the original Han system.

People are accustomed to their homeland and the old system.

Even though he knew how powerful foreign guns and cannons were, he still felt that his own bows and arrows were better for riding and shooting. Right, Kang Mazi and Gan Goupi?

"Today, the descendants of the Xun family in Yingchuan are holding a cultural gathering at Zuixiang Tower..." Man Chong said slowly, as if talking about trivial matters on the street, boring chat, "People from the Chen family and the Guo family are going... I heard that there are also Brother Ziyang was invited...why didn't you go? 』

Liu Ye stared at his wine bowl and said, "My own wine is more casual to drink." 』

Literary meeting.

Dinner.

Banquet.

The beauty of a literary gathering lies not in the writing but in the meeting. The essence of a dinner party lies not in the meal but in the tableau. The same is true for banquets.

Some people think that by presenting a peerless article and exquisite lyrics at a literary conference, they will be able to stand out among the crowd, but a lot of big guys just knelt down and bowed to the ground, holding a few lines copied from who knows where. The poems made me burst into tears...

The article is not on point? That's right.

Can someone who doesn't even know the basic purpose of holding a cultural gathering, banquet, etc. write poems that "meet the needs"?

The literary conference is just short of a few articles?

It's like there are only a few bowls of rice missing during a dinner party, and a few bottles of wine missing during a banquet?

In fact, whether it is a cultural gathering, a dinner party, or a banquet, there is another name in China, politics.

Politics is exchange, politics is compromise.

The cultural banquet is a political level of social identity in China. Being able to participate in a certain amount of cultural banquets and banquets means a kind of qualification, because the more important such activities are, the more closed they are, and only those with higher levels are eligible to participate. The so-called connections, the so-called circles, the so-called social relationships, the so-called resources, the so-called energy of a person, the so-called friendship, the so-called business and transactions, in the end cannot avoid this kind of activities.

Liu Ye knew what it meant to attend the cultural gathering, and Man Chong also knew it, so Man Chong came to visit after Liu Ye didn't go.

Liu Ye didn't go, not because he was completely loyal to Cao Cao, but because he didn't think highly of those people.

Man Chong's visit does not mean that he thinks Liu Ye is loyal, but it can at least be certain that Liu Ye is not with those people now.

"There's something..." Man Chong put down the wine bowl, "There's an admonishment over there at Hussar... Have you read it?" 』

Liu Ye still lowered his head, "What kind of message?" 』

Man Chong chuckled, "I don't know what the message is...but some people know it, and they are still spreading it secretly...Brother Ziyang, doesn't it feel strange?" 』

Liu Ye thought to himself, what's so strange about this? But he said, "Is there still such a thing?" 』

Man Chong suddenly fell silent and stared at Liu Ye.

Liu Ye still didn't look up.

The two of them were once very good friends.

Now has become the past.

Some things and some emotions, although they may be similar, are ultimately different.

Just like when you are a student, you can call the school a Shabi and the principal a Shabi with your classmates, but when you are in the company, you are unlikely to call the company a bastard and the boss an idiot with your colleagues...

Aha? Have any warriors done this? So congratulations to this warrior, and a pair of shoes for the present continuous tense and the future continuous tense. Do you have a place to stay? Sorry, don't think that the personnel at Liuye's office don't know how to make one more phone call.

"Just drink." Man Chong said.

Liu Ye nodded, "Okay, let's drink." 』

Although there is no fundamental contradiction or conflict of interest between Liu Ye and Man Chong, there are some things that Man Chong will not discuss in detail with Liu Ye, and Liu Ye will not explain to Man Chong.

The years of talking about everything are like the breeze blowing away without any trace.

The two of them drank a bottle of wine in silence.

Liu Ye didn't say anything about adding wine, and neither did Man Chong.

Man Chong put down the wine bowl and said, "There are bandits in Jizhou now, and the soldiers in the counties and counties are not doing enough to suppress them." The prince summoned Cui Jigui many times in Ye to go north to strangle the bandits... However, Cui Jigui's army still lacked one supervisor, so how about a hard trip for Brother Ziyang? 』

"Is this what you mean, Boning?" Liu Ye asked.

Man Chong shook his head, "That's Xun Lingjun's intention. I just came to inform you first." 』

Liu Ye chuckled lightly, "This is not a good job." 』

"That's right. ” Man Chong did not deny it, “But it’s better than staying here. 』

Liu Ye raised his head and looked at Man Chong for the first time since he came in.

Man Chong had helplessness written on his face, but his eyes were firm.

Capital is meaningless and politics is ruthless.

The friendship between two people is like dust in the face of ruthlessness and unrighteousness.

Man Chong knew why Liu Ye did this, because no matter what Liu Ye said, he still had the blood of Han clan members on his body.

Liu Ye also knew why Man Chong was like this, because Man Chong came from a poor family.

What Liu Ye wanted, Man Chong couldn't help, and what Man Chong wanted, Liu Ye couldn't give. The two of them are still friends, but there are too many things mixed into their friendship.

Liu Ye nodded slowly.

Man Chong stood up and said goodbye simply.

"correct. Liu Ye stopped Man Chong, "These Jizhou bandits...are they so difficult to defeat?" 』

Man Chong didn't look back, "Brother Ziyang, you are just supervising the army." 』

"oh. Liu Ye responded, "I understand." 』

…

…

The sky in Jizhou quickly turned dark after the sun set.

There was originally a curfew in Cao Jun's transit camp. In order to prevent ordinary soldiers from moving around at night, they accidentally made some noise, causing agitation in the camp. However, everyone knew that the law was downward and prohibited soldiers, but it did not prohibit officers.

Around Hai hour, a figure swayed and entered a tent.

A thin, broken sound sounded.

"Have you thought about it?" 』

"alright. 』

The two shadows don't need too many words. It seems that with just one or two words, they can find each other's channel and touch the sparks of the soul...

"Then... what should Junhou Cao do?" 』

"What else can I do?" Some people are always unlucky. 』

In the military camp, not everyone can be bribed. There are always people who are not moved by money either because of this or because of that.

"knew. When will it be done? 』

"The sooner the better, the night is long and the dreams are many." Tomorrow is not as good as today. 』

"today? 』

"today. 』

The two shadows continued to get together, and after muttering a few words, they separated.

One of the dark figures quickly passed through the camp and slipped into a tent.

There were obviously people waiting in the tent for a long time. When they saw the black shadow coming back, they whispered: "Brother Fan!" 』

The black shadow sat down in the tent and whispered, "Everything is done, let's start today." 』

"today? ! ” someone said in surprise.

The man named Fan looked at him and said, "What, you don't dare anymore?" 』

"No, no, I'm just not prepared..."

Fan said, "What preparations are needed?" To the south of the camp are people living and working, to the northeast are the granaries, to the northwest are the elites of Cao's army...the weapons depot is also here..."

Under the dim moonlight, several people gathered together. I don't know whether it was excitement or fear, but everyone's eyes were shining with an inexplicable light. The people in front were staring at Fan's face, while the people behind were standing half-upright, listening carefully with their ears erect, fearing that something was wrong. Missed something.

?????55.?????

They are all people in the camp and are familiar with the layout of the camp.

But familiarity is familiarity, and doing things is doing things.

And we have to do such a big thing.

The son of Fan is the Fan family of Qinghe.

A relative of the Qinghe County magistrate who died in front of Cao Cao.

The Qinghe County Magistrate died. Cao Cao took care of the Qinghe County Magistrate's wife out of face, but what about Qinghe County Magistrate's other relatives...

"After the operation begins, we must set fires everywhere at the same time, so that the whole camp will be chaotic, especially here," Fan Shizi pointed to the northwest direction of the camp, "Only if they move, this chaos will happen. Memorize... Otherwise, wait a few days, after they check the accounts and warehouse..."

If the elite of Cao's army stayed in the camp, how could anyone take the blame?

"rest assured! After the fire started, they couldn't help but come out! ” Someone answered.

In order to prevent the theft and sale of military rations from being discovered, and to save his own life, let alone setting fire to kill someone, even if Cao Cao personally sent an envoy, he would not kill him!

"good! After Cao Jun and others come out, don't rush to attack them, you have to come back here first! After the others succeed, they will also come here to meet up, remember? ” Fan Shizi whispered, “We are all innocent people! Remember to be smart with your hands and feet, and don’t leave any traces for people to grab! Have you remembered them all? 』

"Understood! 』

"remember! 』

Everyone responded in low voices.

They all divided the money.

more or less.

Nowadays, there is drought everywhere. If this vote is done, there will be more money!

Are the hussars the enemy?

They are enemies, but they are Cao Cao's enemies. What does it have to do with them?

Will they get any benefits from defeating the Hussars?

But these small sums of money in front of you are real benefits!

Although the Shang Shutai always said that Shandong was very good after each year's calculations, they knew clearly that wine and meat were getting more and more expensive, and grain and oil prices were rising every year, but the monthly salary was stable. There is a drop in the middle...

So, making money is not shabby!

"Think about it this time, we are all innocent people!" Think about it, if you do it this time, everyone will have money! "Fan Shizi glanced over, and the nervous expressions on everyone's faces began to become determined.

This is an action that determines their lives and the quality of their future lives!

You can only succeed, no success or failure!

After scanning everyone's faces one by one, Fan Shizi took a white cloth from a confidant on the side and tied it on his right arm, "I'll say it again, we are forced!" We are here for the big man! For the people! 』

"For the big man!" For the people! 』

right! They are righteous!

If these grains and fodder are sent to the front line, they will be wasted!

Even if it is in vain, you can still hear a sound, but when you send it to the front line, you can't even hear a sound!

Don't people live just for those carbohydrates, those proteins, and those fats? But there was someone who was trying to squeeze it between their teeth! Rather than letting this food and grass be sent to the front line in vain, it is better to let this food and grass fall into the hands of the people who really need food!

That’s the truth!

Everyone unified their thoughts, strengthened their confidence, and tied the white cloth strips prepared in advance on their arms.

Once chaos breaks out in the camp, this is the only way to distinguish your own people.

"One last thing," Fan Shizi whispered, "if that person is unfortunately caught or discovered... I think everyone knows what to do?" 』

Everyone was silent for a moment, and then a low voice sounded, "I know!" If I'm caught, I'll kill myself! If you really don't have the strength to kill yourself, I hope the brothers will find a chance to do it! 』

"That's it. "Fan Shizi stretched out his hand, shook it with everyone one by one, and then whispered, "Action! 』

A corner of the tent was opened, and everyone filed out, scattering and disappearing into the camp.

Who could have thought that this war could last so long?

Who would have thought that we would encounter such a severe drought?

We are short of food and grass, and it is obvious that we cannot make up for it...

Others are not fools. The drought is so severe that there will obviously be a large-scale harvest failure this year. The price of grain and grass is rising. Even if we really have to spend money to buy it back, we can't make up for the shortfall.

Fortunately, dear Hussars are here!

This is really timely!

But if you want to hide the truth, you must first kill the generals who are relatives of the Cao family in the camp.

As long as this guy dies, the Hussars can "successfully" attack the transit camp, instead of civil strife breaking out in the camp...

How can it be "perfect" if a few people don't die, especially if Cao Jun's military academy doesn't die?

The only thing to blame is that he doesn’t want money, he only wants food and grass, and he only wants the truth!

Then I can only be sorry.

If they are not of the same mind, they will have no choice but to die. Those who survive must agree with their confessions.

It's like a thief successfully robbed Midea Bank and took away two million in cash, and then the bank reported a loss of twenty million.

Yes, Wei Yan didn't come here, but the news that the Hussars had "attacked" a transit camp was passed here, so an extra group of Cao Jun's elites were guarded in the camp.

This also means that Fan and others must act immediately, otherwise it will be like "a long night and many dreams."

At first, Fan and others thought they could be like Cao Ying and have fun together. But who would have thought that it was not Cao Ying who came here, but the Seducer!

After checking the account books and checking the provisions, within two or three days the people in the camp were panicked!

How is this conducive to stability and unity?

How is it conducive to prosperity?

How can it help people get rich?

How is it beneficial to...

Anyway, if the accounts are not checked, everyone will still be friends. If the warehouse is not checked, everyone can laugh.

If you now check the accounts and warehouses, you will naturally become sworn enemies!

But it doesn't matter. As long as there is chaos in the camp, this group of Cao's army guards will definitely come out to check the situation. At that time, it will be the best time to take advantage of the chaos and kill their leader!

There is only one chance. If it fails, it will definitely arouse alarm and even cause adverse chain reactions...

However, the hole in the granary will be discovered sooner or later. The fire dragon burning the granary for no reason means that everyone has been exposed. It is only possible to use the name of the Hussars to cause trouble.

Cao Jun's military academy will definitely come out, after all, they are here just for food and grass.

So as long as a fire breaks out, they will definitely come out to organize fire fighting...

The moonlight is deep.

The night is dark and windy.

The sky is dry and the things are dry.

There is no better opportunity than now!

A few bonfires were the only source of illumination in this area. On the sentry tower next to the wooden fence, there was a soldier on duty taking a nap.

Fan Shizi quietly straightened up and looked around, then waved back.

Several people moved forward quietly along the shadow of the tent.

For the sake of money and their own lives, they learned by themselves without any teacher and opened the stealth skill book.

No one discovered them, or the sentinels' main attention was outside the camp. No one would have thought that their own people in the camp would do such a thing...

Several people arrived at the predetermined location.

To set a fire, you must use kerosene.

It’s hard to say whether it can burn just by burning it with a torch, or by beating it with a fire sickle, but it will definitely bring a greater risk of exposure.

Fan Shizi reached out and took the small jar filled with kerosene, and listened carefully, only to hear the snoring in the tent in the camp.

Nothing was out of the ordinary.

Fan pulled out the bottle stopper, making a "pop" sound, and his hand trembled, almost pouring the kerosene on himself.

The movements of several people froze.

After a few more breaths, there was still no change around, and the patrol team in the distance was still walking slowly.

Fan stabilized his mind, then closed his eyes and muttered something, then opened his eyes and steadily poured the kerosene all the way out, while pouring, while retreating, until the kerosene was emptied, and the person also retreated from the camp tent into the shadows.

"Are the bows and crossbows ready?" Fan asked back.

In the shadows, someone showed the bows and crossbows that had been strung.

The sharp arrowheads shone coldly in the dark night.

"Very good," Fan nodded, "ignite! 』

With a crackling sound, the flint ignited the tinder, and the tinder ignited the kerosene, and suddenly a line of fire snaked from the ground and ran quickly forward!
