I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 754 Burning Liu Ying
On the tenth day of September, inside Yangping Pass.

Late that night, Sun Ce finally received the letter from Huang Gai that he had been longing for.

I saw that during this night, Sun Ce's spies outside the pass came to report that they saw torches held high in Huang Gai's camp from a distance, and the torches were flashing continuously.

This scene, in the dark sky, was particularly conspicuous in the eyes of the spies who were always watching the other side's stronghold.

After receiving the Huang Gai signal, Sun Ce couldn't help but have an unusually rosy color on his face. This was all due to his high spirits.

According to the agreement between him and Huang Gai during this period, on the night of the tenth day of September, the two sides should cooperate internally and externally to set fire to the camp. If Huang Gai is ready and there is nothing unusual, then it will be like this.

And the main burning place they chose was the fodder camp which was relatively close to Xu Rong Camp!

After waiting for so many days, Sun Ce's heart was full of urgency.

He knew that what he did today was related to the trend of the world and his own safety, and also related to whether he could avenge bloodshed.

The main reason that supports Sun Ce in fighting now is revenge!

When Sun Ce called his name, both of them came out and bowed to Sun Ce.

The two people Sun Ce called were Zu Mao and Wu Jing.

"I hope you two can live up to everyone's expectations and burn down the place where the hay is stored."

Sun Ce said to the two of them: "Revenge, in one fell swoop."

Both of these two were long-established generals in the Sun family's army, and among them Zu Mao was the veteran general that Sun Jian valued highly.

This cruel trick is useless!

In terms of military strength, their two troops together numbered three thousand.

And they are all older than the people of Wuzhong who traveled over mountains and ridges. They used to fight with Sun Jian for a long time.
Now it is more appropriate for them to set fire.

After receiving this signal, Sun Ce, who felt that it was too late, immediately summoned the generals.

"Grandpa, uncle, you two, please quickly gather your troops and horses and burn Liu Jian's hay camp for the front."

Because of Huang Gai's existence, Sun Ce was still confident in defeating Liu Jian.

It's not in vain for everyone to cooperate with him like this.

Seeing that all the generals had gathered, Sun Ce immediately gave a general explanation of Huang Gai's reply.

It seems that Yuan Shao was really prescient when he asked Sun Ce to lead his troops into Yizhou to assist Yuan Yi in defending Shu.

Then capturing Liu Jian alive is no longer a problem!
Even the generals in Yizhou began to admire Sun Ce greatly at this moment.

Without Sun Ce, it would be difficult to find this chance of victory!
Now Huang Gai, whom he placed with Liu Jian, actually worked.

Now Huang Gai has found an entry point, as long as it can be burned successfully.

Soon after, Sun Ce summoned the generals in the pass.

Finally, Huang Tian paid off and received the news about Huang Gai.

After receiving this news, all the generals in the pass were shocked, and at the same time they turned their admiring eyes to Sun Ce.

At this time, Sun Ce, who always emphasized the importance of troops and speed, directly began to point out the future of troops.

"Follow-up reinforcements will arrive soon."

"In this case, the other army will be defeated!"

After hearing Sun Ce's words full of expectations for them, Wu Jing and Zu Mao bowed to Sun Ce one after another.

"Don't worry, General! We will live up to your high expectations!"

The solemn promises of the two seniors made Sun Ce feel at ease.

After the second general received Sun Ce's order to dispatch troops, they hurried out to gather their own troops.

Time was running out, so they didn't waste much time before leading their own troops out of Yangping Pass and quickly heading towards Xu Rong's military stronghold.

Then, Sun Ce looked at the others.

"Generals, Liu Jian's 50,000 soldiers and horses are divided into eight main camps. You should divide your work and attack and burn each of his military fortresses. Remember, time is tight and you must not delay the opportunity to fight."

"promise!"

Late at night, Wu Jing and Zu Mao followed Sun Ce's arrangement and arrived at the place that Huang Gai had agreed with them in advance!
They did not rush over to set fire, but waited for Huang Gai's soldiers and horses to take the lead in the camp. When the time came, the army would be in chaos, and they could cooperate inside and outside to win in one fell swoop!

Within the camp, Huang Gai also secretly mobilized his troops and prepared to set fire to the camp where hay was stored.

During the recent period, due to Huang Gai's outstanding performance, Liu Jian's supervision seemed to be much looser on him, and no additional soldiers were sent to monitor him.

Huang Gai gathered his men and sent half to burn the hay camp, while he led the other half to burn Xu Rong's main camp.

According to the investigation, Xu Rong's camp was built in a lush mountain forest and was very easy to ignite.

Huang Gai made up his mind to burn Xu Rong first and kill the bastard who harmed his old master!

Thinking of this, Huang Gai's breathing became rapid.

The bright moon hung high in the sky, and the bright moonlight passed through the thin dark clouds and scattered on Huang Gai and the others.

Under the moonlight, the black armor on their bodies seemed to be flowing with murderous intent.

"set fire!"

After Huang Gai and Lu Meng separated, he immediately led half of his troops and headed straight for Xu Rong's main camp.

Later, he ordered his sergeants to set fire everywhere in Xu Rong's camp. Looking at the fires that were gradually burning everywhere, Huang Gai could imagine that soon these fires would expand and cause even greater commotion.

And every commotion will distract Liu Jian's energy and make his military morale chaotic!

Everything is developing according to what he has set!
However, at this moment, a group of powerful Biao troops suddenly rushed out from the depths of Xu Rong's stronghold.

The veteran leader is none other than Xu Rong.

"General Huang is so loyal and brave, which is really admirable. It's a pity that his eyesight is blinded by a leaf. He only knows revenge and does not know the general situation. How rare!"

After Xu Rong said this, the deputy general behind him shouted "release" in a high voice!
The sound rang through the air.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of short crossbows suddenly sounded in the night sky, and countless short arrows suddenly shot towards where Huang Gai and others were!
In an instant, the Sun Jiajun, who was heading towards Commander Xu Rong's tent, left behind dozens of flesh-and-blood corpses.

This sudden scene frightened the soldiers of the Sun family who had been in high morale just now.

But the real nightmare has just begun.

The soldiers who were ambushing deep in the camp stood up one after another. They all had short crossbows in their hands, and then began to shoot arrows suddenly towards where Huang Gai's army was.

Still a rocket!

Before these soldiers had time to react, they saw thousands of rockets heading towards the Sun Army with Xu Rong's order!

At this moment, Xu Rong didn't seem to care whether this was his camp or not, he just shot at the tents of his camp and the enemy soldiers!
In particular, the arrows fired by Xu Rong's soldiers were rockets with added materials.

When thousands of arrows shot through the air, the entire camp seemed to be covered in flames that filled the sky for an instant.

Seeing the rockets heading toward them like meteors, Huang Gai's pupils continued to dilate, and most of them showed panic.

Moments later, the sound of body breaking "puff" resounded throughout the camp.

What followed was the shrill screams of countless soldiers.

Many soldiers were on fire, causing great chaos. They lost orderly command due to fear of flames.

The soldiers who were on fire were running around, hoping to find a place to put out the flames.

And as they ran around randomly, the scope of the flames spread rapidly.

Many of the soldiers of the Sun family who were not hit by arrows were also hit by Chiyu in this situation, and their bodies began to catch fire.

At this time, the second round of rocket rain came in front of these Sun family soldiers.

Countless screams echoed again, and this time more soldiers were covered in flames.

After causing wider panic and trying to escape for their lives, a horrific stampede finally occurred.

At this time, the soldiers of the Sun family don't care whether you are a comrade or not. As long as they see an unburned place on your side, they will rush over and drive away the comrades over there.

In order to save their lives, many soldiers of Sun Army began to fight against each other.

There were also many Jiangdong soldiers who were on fire, running outside.

But at the Dazhai in the rear, Ma Yan and Jiao Chu led the shield soldiers and spear soldiers to intercept them and trapped them here.

At this moment, the entire camp seemed to be burning.

After several rounds of rockets were released, the entire camp was engulfed in flames.

In the firelight, Huang Gai looked at Xu Rong not far away in surprise.

His eyes were filled with hatred.

I wanted to burn their camp, but I never thought that they would actually burn it even more severely!

Until now, he still doesn't understand that everything is a ruse, everything is Liu Jian's plan.

"General Huang, when you saw that our army moved its troops and horses to a place with lush mountains and forests, you wanted to capture my camp with fire. Tonight, we will burn all of this camp. What do you want?!"

After hearing Xu Rong's shouts in the distance, Huang Gai's heart felt like it was falling into an ice cellar even though he was in the burning camp.

"You, you are so cruel!"

"He doesn't hesitate to burn down his own camp, but he also plans to deal with us!"

Xu Rong laughed loudly: "It's just to lure you into a trap. If you don't spend some money, how can you earn the money to come here?"

"The Prime Minister said that if we burn down the stronghold today, we will indeed suffer huge losses, but it will help you all get out of seclusion!"

"The losses we suffered today can be made up for after we capture Shuzhong the next day!"

These words can be said to make Huang Gai feel ashamed.

He wished he could find a crack in the ground and crawl directly into it.

Unexpectedly, after so many twists and turns, the other side could not hide anything from the other side.

"That's all, maybe this is God's will."

Huang Gai muttered secretly in his heart.

But he didn't relax.

He stared at Xu Rong who was not far away from the opposite side, and slowly raised the sword in his hand.

"Xu Thief, the outcome is yet to be determined."

"Huang will definitely kill you today to avenge your old master!"
