Chapter 310 Stealing Food

But after thinking for a long time, I didn't come up with a good countermeasure.For the current plan, there is no other way but to send more people to the rear to transport grain.

At this time, Colin came out of the tent in black, and then he sneaked out of the tent.

At this time, there was a loud shout from behind:
"Colin, where are you going?"

Colin's body froze suddenly, he turned his head slowly, and when he saw it was Xiaocui, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, holding his chest and said:
: "You're going to scare me to death!"

"Where are you going in such a sneaky way? If you don't make it, I'll tell the prince to go!"

But Xiaocui asked reluctantly.

"Don't... I said, I said it's okay?"

Colin had no choice but to beg for mercy.

"Then speak up!"

Xiaocui urged.

"I want to steal some food. Look at the crown prince, he hasn't had a good meal for several days. If this continues, I'm afraid we'll all have to finish the game!"

Colin was honest.

"Steal food? You don't mean to go to the Wei army camp to steal food?"

Xiaocui was stunned.

"Exactly!"

Colin Road.

"However, it is too dangerous to do this! If the crown prince finds out, he will definitely not agree to let you go. If the crown prince finds out about your behavior, you will be dealt with by military law!"

Xiaocui was shocked when she heard the words, and said hastily.

"So, you must keep it a secret for me!"

Colin said with a look of reason.

"But……"

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon!"

Colin interrupted Xiaocui, turned around and ran, and disappeared after a few ups and downs. Xiaocui looked at the direction he was leaving with a tangled face, and after a long while, she had to go back to the tent with a worried expression on her face.

After Colin quickly ran out of the Nangongxi barracks, he disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Half an hour later, he appeared outside the Chuzhou city tower, found a remote place, and flew in secretly.

At this time, the General Military Mansion in Chuzhou City.Wei Tiankui was drinking with a group of people, and the elated voices came and went, all complimenting Wei Tiankui for leading his troops like a god, and today he beat Nan Gongxi's troops to pieces, but Wei Tiankui said worriedly:

"Everyone, don't be too happy. This Nangongxi is not an ordinary peddler. He escaped from under the eyes of the king of Ji to the country of Lu, and organized 40 horses in a short period of time, which is enough to prove that he is a man. A powerful military strategist, now that Cai Zhong and others have defected to him, his strength has greatly increased, so we should not be underestimated!"

"How can a general become the courage of others and destroy his prestige? Our [-] Wei family army is not a vegetarian. Didn't you see that Nan Gongxi's troops were beaten to pieces today and ran faster than rabbits? It's just that the subordinates don't understand. Why didn't you take advantage of the victory and pursue it? But let Nan Gongxi run away?"

There was nothing regretful between the man's words.

Hearing what he said, Wei Tiankui stroked his beard, sighed, and then said: "General Li doesn't know something. If the people we sent hadn't been robbing Nan Gongxi's troops, they wouldn't have It is so easy to be defeated by us. Although we guard the city tower as strong as a copper wall, Nan Gongxi's troops are guarding outside, and it is difficult for us to get out. General Li also knows this. We are sitting in this city and eating the mountains, and the food has already been exhausted. There is not much left. I don’t know how many days it can last. Although Nan Gongxi’s troops have run out of food, they still have a way out, and what about us? Once we leave Chuzhou, it is not easy to come back. Therefore, we must not Love to fight! In addition, after spending so long with Nangongxi, our food will soon be short of food. As the saying goes, soldiers and horses go before they move food and grass. Without food and grass, how dare we chase? Even if we chase, the city will be empty. If the enemy sneaks in, how can we return to Chuzhou? Under such circumstances, how can we go after them? Besides, General Li must have understood the reason why the poor should not pursue them. For the current plan, we can only take advantage of them When you are resting, go quickly to bring some food and grass. Replenish your energy and store up your energy, just wait for the battle in the future."

"So that's the case, the subordinates are really stupid, and they didn't understand the meaning of the general soldier. It turns out that you are taking advantage of this opportunity to smuggle food!"

The man showed a suddenly enlightened expression, and it was only then that everyone understood.They said in unison: "The chief soldier's move is really high!"

After speaking, another person picked up the wine cup and said, "Come on, let's toast the general soldier."

Everyone toasted, and Wei Tiankui also took up the wine glass and made a drink.

But they never expected that at this moment, there was a person on the roof who tore off a piece of the tile, scanning these people with a pair of eyes, and listened to every word they said.Hearing this, Colin retracted his head again, and left lightly, all of which was done without anyone noticing.

For dinner, Xiaocui came in with a bowl of porridge.Nangong Xi glanced at it, and was startled. She didn't expect there to be a white steamed bun.

Nangong Xi asked in amazement: "How come there is food all of a sudden?"

Xiao Cui knew she couldn't hide it, so she said honestly, "It was Colin who went to Chuzhou City to steal it. However, he only stole a little bit. After all, it's not easy to carry in the cave. You can use it quickly, Prince!"

Colin?It was only then that Nangong Xi suddenly remembered him. This child was usually eccentric, courageous and resourceful, but he had been following Zhu Zixin before, so he ignored this ability in him, and now he remembered it.

"Xiao Cui, go and call him for me!"

Nangong Xi thought for a while and said to Xiao Cui.

"Yes."

After Xiaocui went down, Colin came to Nangongxi's camp not long after.He originally planned to wait for Nangongxi to finish his meal and then report the news he had heard to him.Unexpectedly, Nangong Xi came to him first.

After entering the door, Colin asked:
"What's the matter with me?"

He is used to being rude, not to mention that he once saved his own life, so Nan Gongxi was not angry, but asked with a smile:
"I heard that you went to the Wei army camp alone?"

"I... I can't help it. If you want to blame, you can blame me alone. It has nothing to do with others!"

Colin also thought that Nangongxi was going to punish him, so he hurriedly said.After staying in the barracks for a long time, he also understands that he must abide by the military rules, otherwise he will be punished.

Nangong Xi smiled and said:

"This king wants to ask you, have you heard any valuable news?"

"So you're asking this!"

Hearing this, Colin immediately relaxed, scratched the back of his head, thought for a while, and then said:
"They said that their food and grass are almost gone! We must quickly find a way to solve the problem quickly!"

"..."

"Why didn't you say something so important earlier?"

After hearing what Ke Lin said, Nan Gongxi asked immediately.

"How did I know this? Besides, I think you've already guessed it, why don't I say it?"

Colin said.

Nangong Xi shook his head helplessly. Of course he guessed it, but guessing was just a guess after all. How could there be any reliable news?

After hearing this, he thought for a long time, and then said: "You did a good job, but it's too dangerous. You should be careful in the future!"

Colin didn't expect Nan Gongxi to praise himself, and he didn't know what to do for a while, he stood awkwardly, and didn't know where to put his hands.

Seeing him like this, Nangong Xi was actually very touched.He coughed and said, "Just stay here and discuss the battle plan with us."

"Ugh!"

Nan Gongxi ordered Cai Zhong, Yu Chihuai and others to come in and discuss for a long time before they came up with a battle plan.

He thought that since Wei Tiankui and the others planned to deliver food and grass in the next few days, why didn't their people snatch Wei Tiankui's food, so that if they cut off their food, he would have food to eat.Everyone felt that this opportunity was good, so they decided not to startle the enemy, and send some people to ambush Wei Tiankui on the way to deliver grain and grass, just to wait for the rabbit.

At this time, Yu Chihuai suddenly remembered something and said:

"Not far from here is a snake trainer named Zhuyeqing. Why don't we invite him over to deal with Wei Tiankui? Then Zhuyeqing's ability is great. If we use snakes to deal with Wei Tiankui, we are not afraid that he will not surrender!"

"snake?"

When Nan Gongxi heard this idea, he suddenly remembered the time when Zhu Zixin was attacked by a snake, and suddenly felt shocked, because even though he escaped that time, he also felt the horror of snakes!Using snakes to deal with Wei Jun is really powerful.Guess Wei Tiankui didn't know that he would use snakes to deal with him.Therefore, he hurriedly nodded in agreement, and ordered Yu Chihuai to invite Zhuyeqing.

That Yu Chihuai nodded, and left in a hurry after everyone discussed the business.

One day later, a small road not far from Chuzhou City was lined with green plants everywhere, and there were few pedestrians on the road. It was probably because of the war that people were hiding at home.Therefore, if someone came along the road, he could see it clearly at a glance.

Behind those green plants, there are faintly unusual things. If you look carefully, you always feel that there seems to be something inside.In fact, it was Nangong Xi who sent people to ambush here, waiting for the person who delivered the grain and grass to appear.

It has been in ambush for two days, and no one has been seen yet.It was already dusk that day.Finally, I saw several carriages slowly driving over from the road.The cart was fully dragged, and the two tired horses walked with great difficulty.

"It's finally here!" said one of the people hiding by the side of the road.That voice was Colin, who was arranged to lead a team to steal Wei Jun's food here.Then another voice said: "General, how do you determine that this is food?"

But it was a soldier.

"General? Hahaha..."

Hearing that someone called him a general, Colin laughed wildly in his heart. He felt a sense of accomplishment, did he?

"You are stupid, apart from food and grass, what would be so heavy? Besides, who is going to enter the city at this time? Isn't it food and grass? Could it be a stone?"

He said quite proudly.

"That's right, why are you hitting me on the head?"

The little soldier muttered dissatisfied.

"What? You're still not convinced? I'll talk to you later, let's rob you of the food first!"

As he was talking, seeing that the grain had arrived, Colin blew a whistle, and dozens of people rushed out from both sides of the road, and they rushed forward, holding big knives and trying to chop down the groom on the cart.Unexpectedly, the groom exclaimed in surprise:
"Colin, it's you!"

Everyone was stunned, and the movement of raising the sword stopped immediately.

The groom on the carriage took off his turban, which was tightly covered. Everyone saw it and realized that it was Zhu Zixin.

"So it's Missy! You...you..."

After Colin reacted, he was a little at a loss.During this time, although they were always looking for Zhu Zixin, everyone knew it.Because there is no news for such a long time, the chances of surviving are too small.Unexpectedly, Zhu Zixin was actually still alive.Moreover, so much food and grass were sent back, this is sending charcoal in the snow!

Everyone was overjoyed, and hurriedly pulled Zhu Zixin to rush back, especially Colin, his eyes turned red in an instant, and he choked up and said:

"Zixin, where have you been these days?"

Zhu Zixin smiled mysteriously, patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Okay! I'll tell you slowly when I get back! Now is not the time to talk."

Then he rushed to the groom in the carriage behind him and shouted, "Hurry up, bring the grain back!"

"Yes!"

The coachman responded, picked up his whip and hurried forward.

Zhu Zixin jumped into the carriage and shouted as he walked: "

You also hurry up to keep up! "
