Chapter 108
Let's say that Liu Ye led the iron cavalry instead of fighting Gong Du, but turned around and left. With Gong Du summoning the defeated soldiers, the road can be said to be unimpeded. The 700 cavalry galloped quickly among the Yellow Turban bandits' army camp, as if entering a land of no one, and in fact it was indeed a land of no man.
Xia Houyuan couldn't help laughing: "This guy is really stupid. Instead of protecting the food and grass, he formed an army to fight against our army. Wouldn't he be suicidal?"
Liu Ye said with a smile: "We were scared of this group of yellow turban thieves, so we formed an army, but the more they formed an army, the more I ignored them, and waited until the yellow turban thieves were burned down." Food and grass, let's see if he can still put up a battle."
The two laughed loudly and urged the horses to move forward. The horses galloped so fast, and after a while, the East Day Camp was in front of them, and they could vaguely see through the wall of the village the piles of grain and grass piled up inside. After all, there are 100,000 yellow scarf thieves, and people don't know how much food and grass will be consumed by eating horse chews every day. Therefore, the amount of food and grass stored in the East Day Camp is really large, and it may be enough for Liu Ye's Licheng army to feed for ten years .
As for the storage of grain and grass in the East Day Camp, the defense must not be very lax. The yellow turban sentry on the sentry tower saw the smoke billowing and the cavalry rushing towards them.
Seeing the target in front of him, Liu Ye's blood was about to burn, and the long spear pointed straight ahead, as if it wanted to pierce the sky.
"The food and grass for the bandit army is right in front of you, rush in and kill the yellow scarf bandits, our army will surely win!"
"Kill the thief!"
"Must win!"
How can we forge an elite soldier of hundreds of battles? In fact, it is also very simple to say, that is to win every battle, but it is easier said than done. There are many people who have gone through many battles, but it is useless to always lose the battle. Only by going through hundreds of battles and winning more battles, the invisible in the army will be cast into a military spirit, so that you can persevere even in the face of bitter battles.
However, the Licheng army followed Liu Ye to the north and south of the Yellow River, defeated Zhou Jun, marched to Xuhe, and went down to the plains. They went through dozens of battles. Although there were occasional setbacks, they won every battle. Their self-confidence had already swelled to the extreme, so everyone fought bravely ,Horse galloping.
Liu Ye took the lead, using both arms to exert a thousand-ton divine power, and stabbed out against the wind with all his strength, and raised the gate of the village with a loud shout, and the long spear flew out of the gate of the village with a sudden turn. The 700 iron cavalry behind them were unstoppable immediately, maintaining the momentum of charging all the way into the East Day Camp, the momentum shook.
Seven hundred iron cavalry rushed into the Eastern Camp, like a tiger entering a herd of sheep. The yellow scarf bandits were completely unprepared. It seemed so insignificant in front of him, it would collapse at the touch of a finger.
Seven hundred cavalry rushed into the camp, but they did not disperse and smashed one by one, but integrated into a torrent, swept through the camp, and drove the yellow turban bandits out.
Seeing that the officers and soldiers did not seem to have the intention of killing them all, nor did they block the gate of the camp, many yellow scarf thieves who were eager to survive hurriedly ran towards the open gate of the village.
When a yellow-turban bandit longed with a deer-headed mouse eye flinched, trotted all the way to the gate of the camp, grabbed a leather shield from the dead man on the ground, carefully covered his upper body and poked his head out, looked around and repeatedly confirmed that no one was guarding him. He rushed out in one breath, and ran away without looking back.
Seeing that there was an example, the rest of the yellow turbans immediately ran out in a learned manner. Many of the yellow turbans gave up resistance for a while. After all, they had no leader, and their formation was loose. It was almost impossible to resist, so except for a few fierce Yellow Turban thieves who resisted sporadically in the East Day Camp, most of the rest either shivered and hid in the tents to pray for the protection of the great virtuous teacher, or escaped from birth. I went to fend for myself.
And Liu Ye assigned two hundred cavalry to order Guan Hai to hunt down and kill the Yellow Turban bandits in the camp, and ordered the rest to prepare torches.
Looking at the mountain of grain and grass in front of him, Xia Houyuan couldn't help sighing.
"Hey, I don't know that Yingchuan County needs a few months of taxation to have so much food and grass. It would be a pity to burn it. If we have more people and more time, we can move these food and grass. How nice to go back."
Liu Ye couldn't help but smiled, and reached out to pat Xia Houyuan's shoulder: "Miaocai, kindness does not command soldiers, because generals cannot have the kindness of women, hurry up."
In fact, Liu Ye was only 20 years old, while Xia Houyuan was born in 159, six years older than Liu Ye, but the eldest brother Cao Cao and Liu Ye admired each other, so they were equals.
Xia Houyuan nodded, and raised the torch in his hand, which has concentrated solid oil on it, and it can burn instantly and for a long time with just a single spark.
A flash of determination flashed in his eyes, and then he threw the torch in his hand into the yellow grain and grass.
boom!
In order to facilitate storage and prevent deterioration, the grain and grass have been exposed to the sun to dry out the moisture in them, so they are very dry. If a torch is thrown down, a monstrous fire will be ignited immediately.
The seven hundred cavalry had prepared torches long before departure. At this moment, the seven hundred torches were thrown down, and the piles of grain and grass immediately ignited. The wind helped the fire, and the flames that were only burning at the corners suddenly spread. Gradually, the entire pile of grain and grass was burned, and the flames rose upwards, a full one or two feet high. The flames looked like dancing red elves, releasing scorching heat into the world.
The seven hundred iron cavalry had been sweating profusely for a long time after going through the bloody battle. Now that the flames were burning, the temperature of the air rose, and each one of them became even more parched and gulped their saliva.
Liu Ye's complexion was flushed by the burning flames, and there was a flash of fire in his pupils, and he couldn't help smiling.
"The yellow turban bandits are gone, and Yuzhou will be fixed soon. We will take the lead and build an extraordinary feat!"
Xia Houyuan admired him even more: "Liu Junhou, a certain one usually only admires elder brother and Yuan Rang brother, but now he has a lot of admiration for Liu Junhou."
And Liu Ye also admired Xia Houyuan very much, but unfortunately Xia Houyuan is not like Yu Jin, he is not a general of a poor family, but a general of Cao Cao's clan. Liu Ye was able to poach Yu Jin away from Cao Cao, but brothers Xiahou, Cao Hong, Cao Ren and other generals could not get involved in any way, at most they just had good friends.
"When the fire breaks out, the thieves will be terrified. We will wait for work at leisure and disturb the thieves' army so that they cannot fight the fire."
And just when the raging fire started to burn, Liu Pi and Gong Du happened to lead 5,000 soldiers to the East Day Camp after a rapid march, and they were shocked.
"Fire! Put out the fire!"
