Lu Dynasty

Chapter 771 Fire and Water

The wind was howling, but the sound of Pang Tong's footsteps leading his troops out of the camp was covered by the wind.In addition, in order to avoid being discovered, those ambush soldiers hid so that they could not be seen, leaving only two ears to listen to orders.And the commanders are all staring in the direction of Xinye City, no one cares about our army camp!The wind has caused troubles for our army, but Liu Beijun is not a person favored by the wind god, so the troubles are not small.

Chen Dao is the leader of Liu Bei's personal guard, and he has some cavalry in his hands. Under his leadership, Pound entered Xinye, and he was confident of getting rid of Pound's pursuit.Of course, the premise is that Xinye ignites the fire.After running for a while, Chen Dao looked back and found that Pound was still chasing after him. He sneered and shouted at the little principal beside him, "Send the signal!" From Chen Dao's point of view, as long as there was a fire, Pound would definitely panic. He can take the opportunity to escape.

When the signal was issued, it stands to reason that a rocket should be fired immediately.But Pang Tong moved very quickly, he had already wiped out all of Chen Dao's people!Pang Tong didn't know about Chen Dao's signal. He was still torturing Chen Dao's soldiers to find out what the code was, but he didn't know that the code had already been sent!
When Chen Dao saw that the signal was issued but there was no agreed rocket, he became anxious at that time.You know, this is related to the success or failure of Liu Bei's great cause.In fact, this can't be blamed on the incompetence of Chen Dao's soldiers, mainly because Liu Bei's troops are too small.Although the four counties in Jingnan have a large area, it is a pity that there are too few people. If they raise troops on a large scale, it is easy to resort to war.In addition, Liu Bei has already lost a lot of troops, so there are very few people who give Chen Dao.If our army was weak, Chen Dao could still win more with less, but our army was too strong, and Chen Dao was being pursued by Pang De, so he didn't hear the battle between our army and his soldiers.Of course, too much wind is also a reason.

The fire didn't start, so Chen Dao naturally didn't dare to leave Xinye.Look at the sky, if you wait a little longer, Pound will find out.As soon as Chen Dao gritted his teeth, he asked the small school to signal again. If there were no more rockets coming, he could only light the fire himself.Even if he died, Chen Dao would take away part of our army, struggling to the death, and often he could only exchange his life for his life.When the signal was sent out again, Pang Tong had already asked what the password was.Even the most loyal troops will have bad guys.Since Chen Dao asked to set the fire on fire, Pang Tong naturally complied with his request.The north, south and west gates were immediately surrounded by fire.

Chen Dao's face was filled with joy, he felt that Pound should panic.But looking back, Chen Dao's face tightened again, and Pound was still not in a hurry, and even his troops followed him in an orderly manner.Logically speaking, seeing such a big fire, the general leading the troops should be shocked, and then look around for a place without fire to break out, instead of continuing to chase the bait.But Chen Dao didn't know that Pang Tong had already informed Pound that Xinye City would be burned. As for Chen Dao, he was Pound's guiding light. Here we go.

Chen Dao felt depressed, he wanted to slip away while Pang De was not paying attention.Unexpectedly, Pound pursued him closely. If the fire continued to spread, he could only go through the east gate.Although Zhuge Liang wanted to send our army to the east gate, God knows what would happen if Chen Dao went to the east gate.But now if Chen Dao breaks out from other gates, he can guarantee that Pang De will never go to the east gate honestly.Chen Dao gritted his teeth, since Pang De didn't want to let him go, let him lead Pang De to death, even if he had to accompany him to die!
Pound was also anxious, the fire in the city was getting bigger and bigger, some horses were startled, and many people were burned to death.But the order he received was to bite Chen Dao.Seeing that Chen Daojun was also killed in the fire, Pang De really wanted to break out, because he saw that there was almost no fire at the east gate.But he didn't dare to disobey the military orders, disobedience on the battlefield is the death penalty!Finally, Chen Dao couldn't bear it anymore.Liu Beijun's foundation is weak, if it is exhausted, Chen Dao must be the unlucky one.

Seeing Chen Dao galloping towards the east gate, Pang De was overjoyed, and immediately rode his horse to chase after him.When Chen Dao saw that Pang De was biting him tightly, he said ruthlessly in his heart: "Let's go after him! Let's go after him! At worst, we will die together!" Pound didn't care what Chen Dao was thinking, he was catching up anyway.The fire in Xinye made Pound's mouth parched, and many soldiers were burned.Pang De believed that Chen Daojun must not be much better than himself.Following Chen Dao, Pound rushed out of the fire scene smoothly.To be honest, the moment he rushed out of the fire, Pound felt that he had come to heaven from hell.If it wasn't for the mission, he really wanted to stop and feel the coolness of the strong wind.The only fly in the ointment is that he feels so thirsty!

Pound felt thirsty, even more so than Pound.In the evening, Pound still had water to drink, but Chen Dao started to lie in ambush from the afternoon.Before our army arrived, he dared to send people to fetch water, but after our army arrived, he didn't dare to move, for fear of being discovered by our army, so he didn't drink water for a long time!After the fire, Chen Dao felt that he was about to become dehydrated, and he believed that his soldiers were the same!Now Chen Dao wants to lure our army to the ambush point so as to end this depressing war.

One escaped, the other chased, and soon reached the bank of the Baihe River.Chen Daojun, who had fled all night, went crazy when he saw the water.Chen Dao couldn't hold the troops together, and many of his soldiers went down to drink water.Chen Dao was in a hurry, not because he knew that he would be flooded, but because he was worried that Pound would take advantage of the chaos to cover up and kill him, but Pound stopped a hundred meters away from the Baihe River.

Pound's troops were also very thirsty. Looking at Chen Daojun drinking water in the river, a junior officer licked his lips and asked unwillingly, "General, shall we kill them?"

"Looking for death?" Pound frowned and said, "Give me a yell, let the horse do the same!"

"No!" The small school sent an order, and Pound's troops began to boil and become chaotic.

Looking at the weak team headquarters, Pound said angrily: "Haven't you eaten yet? Give me more strength! Show the momentum of my Xiliang army!" There are people in ambushes here, and the water source has been cut off. Chen Dao doesn't know anything else.After all, Chen Dao is not Zhao Yun, and his talent has not reached the point of drawing inferences from one instance.

Wei Yan didn't know what was going on downstream. Zhuge Liang gave him the order to release the water when he heard people shouting from downstream, and to kill the generals.Pound screamed ghostly on the bank, Wei Yan only knew that soldiers and horses were coming downstream, so he released the water immediately.The water of the White River, which continued overnight, gathered into an irresistible huge wave and rushed downstream.After releasing the water, Wei Yan also rushed downstream with his men and horses.

Chen Dao was puzzled by Pound's behavior when he suddenly heard a rumbling sound upstream.As a native of Runan, Chen Dao may not have seen a big flood, but he stayed in Xinye with Liu Bei for a few years, how could he not know that this is the precursor of the flood breaking the embankment, he hurriedly let his troops go ashore, but Pang De let them Going ashore?
