"I don't want you to do anything particularly dangerous, either."

Hua Ju said: "You will go back and tell Duan Er, and most of the Song army's troops have retreated, but because the time is too fast, it is inconvenient to rush back with food and grass. Therefore, the Song army hid tens of thousands of stones of grain in this place.

I have only sent five thousand people to guard me. Do you understand?" caset

"I understand, I understand." Hou Qi and others said quickly.

Hua Ju asked them to repeat it, and after confirming that there were no mistakes, he said to Xue Yuanhui: "Let them go."

"Yes." Xue Yuanhui responded.

"Thank you, thank you, sir." Hou Qi, Shi Ermao and others said repeatedly.

"Don't walk too fast when you go back, you should walk slowly." Hua Ju said.

"Yes." Hou Qi replied.

Xue Yuanhui took Hou Qi and the others away, and Wen Huanzhang said, "Sir, I want to use grain to lure Duan Er out."

Hua Ju nodded and said, "In the army, food is the most basic element to maintain the stability of the army. Tens of thousands of stones of food are enough to maintain an army of 100,000 people for a period of time. With the personality of a person like Duan Er, what if

Will let it go.

So, after he learned the news, he would definitely send someone to seize the food, and this is also a good opportunity for us to take down Shannanzhou."

"My lord is good at making plans, and I admire him for his humble duties." Wen Huanzhang said.

Hua Ju waved her hand gently and said to Sun An, Guan Sheng: "Notify immediately and ask the soldiers to remove all the tents and railings, and drive the food and grass to the place where they are backing to cover it with weeds.

Except for the five thousand soldiers left behind, the rest of the soldiers were all hidden. When the troops in Shannan Prefecture arrived, they would fight out together to surround them."

"yes."

Sun An and Guan Sheng went to inform the soldiers, Hua Ju said to Hu Cheng: "Take people out of Shannan Prefecture immediately and watch them. As soon as their army comes out, report immediately."

"Affect the order." Hu Cheng took the people away.

Soon, except for the five thousand soldiers and food trucks arranged to be left as bait, the entire camp could not see a single extra soldier.

Hou Qi and his team rode their horses according to Hua Jue's instructions and took nearly an hour to return to Shannan Prefecture. It was already the third hour of Xu, and it was already dark, and lanterns were hung on the streets.

When Hou Qi and the others saw Jia Junpeng, they told Jia Junpeng as Hua Jue ordered. Jia Junpeng immediately took them to Duan Er's place.

Duan Erfu.

The big round table in the flower hall was filled with chicken, duck, fish and meat. Duan Er and Zuo Mou were cheering and drinking. When they heard the servants coming to report that Jia Junpeng was coming, Duan Er immediately asked him to come in and asked, "Inquire clearly."

Is it right?"

Jia Junpeng said: "Reporting to the uncle, I have found out clearly that the large army of the Song army has withdrawn. In order to be able to return to Wanzhou to rescue as soon as possible, they did not even take away food and grass, and they hid all of them thirty away from our Shannan Prefecture.

Where is it.”

"Are you saying true?" Duan Er's eyes immediately lit up when he heard about food and supplies.

Jia Junpeng said: "That's what the soldiers sent out said, and the Beiyi has brought them. The uncle can ask them in person."

"Bring them in." Duan Er said.

Jia Junpeng went out to call Hou Qi, Shi Ermao and the others in, and Duan Er asked, "Has Song Jun really left all the food?"

"Yes."

Hou Qi said: "The Song army brought tens of thousands of stones of grain. They were worried that they would not have time to rescue Wanzhou with so much grain, so they quietly hid the food and grass, and then a large group of people went back to rescue Wanzhou."

"How many people did they leave to guard?" Duan Er asked.

"About five thousand people." Hou Qi said.

Duan Er said, "That's great, this is a gift from God. Jia Junpeng, you will lead 10,000 people immediately. No, bring 15,000 people to take back this batch of food and grass."

"Human job obey."

Jia Junpeng turned around and was about to leave, but Duan Er suddenly shouted again: "Slow down."

Jia Junpeng echoed and asked, "What else does the uncle have to give?"

Duan Er looked at Zuo Mou sitting next to him and asked, "Join the army, do you think this is the trick of the Song army leading us out of the city?"

Zuo Mou said: "The Song army was in a hurry to rush back to rescue Wanzhou. It was indeed inconvenient to rush forward quickly with so much food and grass, so it is possible to keep the food and grass."

Duan Er was still a little worried, thought for a while, and said to Jia Junpeng: "You send a few more people to see, is it like they said?"

"Yes." Jia Junpeng responded, and then took Hou Qi and the others away.

After leaving Duan Er's mansion, Jia Junpeng immediately returned to the military camp and sent five more people to verify.

After sending the person out, Jia Junpeng turned his head and saw that Hou Qi and the others looked wrong, and asked, "What's wrong with you five? Your face is so ugly."

Hou Qi, Shi Ermao, Zhang Dajiang, Zhao Qian, and Rao Yougui was afraid that the people sent by Jia Junpeng would discover the truth, so he would die if he came back and told Duan Er and the others. But now they couldn't leave, so they were very anxious.

"I just rushed back to report the news. I was riding too fast and felt a little uncomfortable." Hou Qi said casually.

"I can't stand riding a horse, it's such a waste.

Jia Junpeng did not doubt it, cursed, asked them to go back and continue on duty, and then left by themselves.

Hou Qi and the others walked to a secluded place. Shi Ermao looked around and saw no one, then whispered: "Jia Junpeng has sent someone again. We must find a way immediately, otherwise we will die as soon as they come back.

. ""

"Yes, as soon as they go, they will know that we are telling lies. With Duan Er's cruel personality, we will definitely not be able to spare us. I think we should run away quickly." Zhang Dajiang said.

"Run, where are you running?"

Rao Yougui said: "Now the city gate is closed, and without the orders from Duan Er and his generals, how can we get out?"

Zhao Qian said: "Even if we go out, what's the use of it? Don't forget that we have all taken the medicine now. If we can't get the antidote, we will all die in twelve hours, and even the corpse will turn into pus.

Blood, even if we run away, we still can't escape death."

"It's also said."

Shi Ermao looked at Hou Qi and asked, "What do you think of? We have to think of a solution. Heng can't just wait for death like this."

Hou Qi said: "Don't be too scared now, those five people may not have any discoveries?"

"Why do you say that?" Shi Ermao asked.

Hou Qi said, "Did you forget how we were caught?"

Shi Ermao was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said, "You mean that the Song army was ambushing on the road, so they might be caught like us?"

"Yes."

Hou Qi said: "When we were arrested today and went to the Song army camp, their secret sentries and patrols were everywhere along the way. They were so strict that it was impossible for those five people to get close to inquire about the news. I think they should be with us.

They were arrested, and then forced to take medicine and then put it back, telling Duan Er the fake news according to Song Jun's intention.

Therefore, we don't have to worry now.

And even if we are anxious now, there is no other way. If we take the medicine, if we can't get the antidote, it's no different from escaping or not.

Since that's the case, it's better to be calm. Isn't there such a saying, human life and death are already destined by God. You can't live no matter how much you deserve to die. You shouldn't die, even if the knife slashes on your neck.

No.

So, before things come to fruition, don’t scare yourself and be calm.”

After hearing what Hou Qi said, Shi Ermao and the others said nothing. The five of them went on duty together.

In the Song Army camp.

Hua Ju asked someone to lit dozens of bonfires. He and Guan Sheng, Wen Huanzhang, Sun An, Hua Rong, Qin Ming and other generals all sat around the bonfire, talking while waiting for news from Shannanzhou.

Suddenly, there was a sound of horse hooves. When Hua Ju saw that Hu Cheng was carrying soldiers and escorting five ropes to tie them back.

These five soldiers in Shannan Prefecture who were tied up were the ones sent by Jia Junpeng to inquire about the news again. They were less than five miles away from Shannan Prefecture when they were caught by Hu Cheng and the others.

When he came to Hua Ju, Hu Cheng came down from the horse and saluted to Hua Ju, "Go to see the Lord."

After Hua Jue asked him to waive the gift, she looked at the five soldiers in Shannan Prefecture who were arrested and asked, "What's going on with these five people?"

"They were sent by Jia Junpeng to verify the situation of Hou Qi and the others taking them back." Hu Cheng said.

Hua Ju smiled and looked at Wen Huanzhang, Sun An, Guan Sheng and others and said, "I actually know that I can send someone to verify the news. It seems that Duan Er is quite cautious."

Sun An smiled and said, "It's a pity that he didn't know that this road had been completely controlled by us. Even if he sent all the soldiers from Shannan Prefecture, he would not hear any credible news."

Like before, Hua Ju and the others, he also interrogated the five people, and then gave each of them a pill, and then put them back, and Hu Cheng continued to go back and stare.

The five people hurried back to Shannan Prefecture on horseback. After seeing Jia Junpeng, they repeated what Hou Qi and the others said as Hua Jue's instructions.

Jia Junpeng did not doubt them, and brought them back to Duan Er Mansion again and told him about the "inquiry".

Duan Er nodded after hearing this, looked at Zuo Mou and said, "It seems that this is really not the trap of Song Jun."

"The Song army was anxious to go back to rescue Wanzhou, and there was no time to set up a trap."

Zuo Mou said: "National uncle can now send troops to rob their food."

"No hurry."

Duan Er smiled and said, "Since it is confirmed that it is not the trap of the Song army, they can't escape. It's just now that night is coming, and they must have not yet gone to bed. If they go at this time, they will definitely be subject to fierce resistance from them.

We will go back to midnight, and most of them will go to bed at that time, and we can kill them unexpectedly and catch them off guard.

This will not only achieve our goal of snatching food and grass to destroy the Song army, but also we will not suffer too much casualties."

Zuo Mou nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Mr. Uncle Wei, I admire his humble position."

Duan Er was very happy when he heard Zuo, who was known for his wisdom, praised him for his wisdom. He laughed twice and said to Jia Junpeng: "You go down and prepare the troops first. After the middle of the day, you and Yin Da and Fang Suo will take you.

Five thousand soldiers went to kill all the soldiers left by the Song army and snatched back their food for me."

"Human job obey."
