The Three Kingdoms: My Wife is a Great and Good Teacher

"Because my father was still nagging at night, 'Dong Zhuo is so arrogant that he actually kidnapped the emperor and took him out of the city. It would be great if someone could burn down her granary at this time.'" When Cai Yan said this, she pointed with her fingers and tried to imitate Cai Yong's tone.

Liu Zhaoqing also laughed when he heard this and said, "Does Xiaoyan know where Dong Zhuo's granary is?"

"I know. It's in the southeast of the city, guarded by many soldiers." Cai Yan nodded.

This surprised Liu Zhaoqing, Zhang Liao and the little girl. Liu Zhaoqing was just asking casually, more like he was coaxing a child, but he didn't expect that Cai Yan really knew it.

After exchanging a glance with Zhang Liao and his daughter, Liu Zhaoqing felt relieved.

"Then I will go over there."

"Be safe, sir."

"Well, don't worry. Your sister Wenyuan is very capable now." After Liu Zhaoqing finished speaking, he gave Cai Yan another reminder.

"By the way, don't tell anyone about seeing me."

This is to protect Cai Yan and the Cai family. Although Cai Yong can be trusted, the fewer people who know this secret that concerns life, the better.

"My father is not capable of this either?" Cai Yan asked, blinking her eyes.

"Neither."

After thinking for a while, Cai Yan nodded slightly: "Okay, I understand."

She was not stupid and quickly understood that Liu Zhaoqing was protecting them.

At this time, they cannot have any relationship with Liu Zhaoqing.

"Then go back to sleep, it's just a dream." Liu Zhaoqing said with a smile.

Cai Yan nodded, then turned back to Liu Zhaoqing and asked, "When will you appear in my dream next time, sir?"

Liu Zhaoqing thought for a moment and replied, "Soon, he will appear again soon."

After Cai Yan left, Liu Zhaoqing, Zhang Liao and his daughter climbed over the wall again and headed southeast towards Luoyang City.

What Xun Yu said was indeed correct. "Winning the hearts of the people" is also a major advantage. He had just arrived in Luoyang when he received help from two groups of people in succession.

And the two groups of people we met were both very critical.

-

The three of them walked along the streets and alleys, like a snake swimming in the dark night, making only slight sounds as they headed towards their destination.

They encountered many patrolling soldiers on the way, but without exception, thanks to Zhang Liao's keen insight, they were able to know in advance and escape.

In just less than half a minute, Liu Zhaoqing and others arrived at the granary of Dong Zhuo's army in the southeast of the city.

Although Cai Yan did not give the specific location, the granary was indeed very conspicuous and it was not difficult to find it.

Because the granary was not only brightly lit by fire all around it, but more importantly, there was a soldier with a sword standing almost every three steps around the courtyard wall and fence.

The style of armor the soldier wore was the same white wolf-head armor that was only worn by Dong Zhuo's elite personal soldiers.

In other words, it was no longer possible to get in by relying on one's own reputation or by betting that the other party was disloyal to Dong Zhuo.

But if they relied on force, Liu Zhaoqing, Zhang Liao and my daughter could indeed break in, but they would definitely be discovered before breaking in.

These soldiers are not really wooden men. Even if they cannot defeat Liu Zhaoqing, they will still report the situation and ask for support.

Perhaps the three of them could force their way in and burn the fire, but in that case it would surely be quickly put out by the reinforcements that arrived in time.

Dong Zhuo also knew the importance of food and fodder, and even in Luoyang City, he deployed heavy troops to guard it.

Now that we have found the granary, the problem becomes how to go in and burn it, and make it burn big enough to produce flames that can be seen from far away.

"How about I guard the door, and you and my daughter go in together, kill all the soldiers inside, and then set fire to the food?" Zhang Liao suggested after thinking about it.

This proposal was immediately rejected by Liu Zhaoqing: "No, not only will you be in great danger, but the three of us will be exposed, which will have a great impact on the subsequent elimination of Dong Zhuo's elite troops."

One of our biggest advantages is that the enemy is in the open while we are in the dark. If Dong Zhuo knew that Liu Zhaoqing and others were here, it is very likely that Lu Bu would immediately launch an attack on the alliance's center lane.

In that case, even with Liu, Guan and Zhang there, Lu Bu would not be able to defeat the alliance army for a while, but he would be put in a passive position.

"But if not this, what else can we do?" Zhang Liao said softly.

Liu Zhaoqing couldn't think of a good solution for a while.

But at this moment, suddenly a sound of breaking through the air came from afar, and a soldier in front of the main gate was hit halfway on the forehead of an arrow.

The soldier's body tilted and slowly fell to the ground. His companions beside him were suddenly horrified and started shouting.

"There is an enemy attack!"

Before the person shouting could speak again, another arrow shot from the darkness pierced through the back of her head.

The remaining soldiers immediately gathered around him, and then one of them suddenly pointed ahead and said, "Where is it!"

Several people immediately chased forward, but as they moved forward, three more arrows shot out, and the three people who wanted to approach the darkness died tragically on the spot again.

The remaining soldiers immediately realized that they had to disperse.

"Go get help!" someone shouted, and as he spoke, he was about to take out an object from his arms, which seemed to be some kind of signal.

But before he could raise his hand, the object was pierced by an arrow, and the next time the same arrow appeared on his forehead.

At the same time, several of the soldiers immediately realized that there was only one person who shot the arrow, so they ran in different directions. The arrow also understood that it could not let any soldier escape, so it immediately changed its target and began to shoot those who wanted to seek help.

But no matter how good a person's archery skills are, there will always be intervals between the arrows he shoots. Just when he was about to kill one of them and he was about to escape, Liu Zhaoqing also understood that this opportunity could not be lost.

He immediately rushed out with Zhang Liao and his daughter.

Then, when the defenders were caught off guard, they either took out daggers or picked up long swords and spears on the ground and started fighting with them.

It was called a "fight", but it was more like a one-sided massacre.

Not only did Liu Zhaoqing kill each enemy with his sword without any pressure, but my daughter and Zhang Liao also killed each one they saw, not to mention the help of arrows in the darkness.

When Liu Zhaoqing almost failed to dodge a soldier's sneak attack, an arrow accurately hit the man's wrist as he was about to chop with his knife. Zhang Liao turned around and chopped off his head.

In just less than ten breaths of time, at least thirty soldiers around the granary fell to the ground.

There was already a pool of blood on the ground.

At this time, Liu Zhaoqing also looked into the darkness.

Soon, a masked woman walked out of the darkness, holding a crossbow in her hand.

"May I ask who you are?" Liu Zhaoqing asked the strange woman.

"My name is Ji Ling, and I'm Yuan Zhonglang's subordinate." Ji Ling said.

"Yuan Shu?" Liu Zhaoqing frowned.

Ji Ling nodded and said, "Marquis Changping, please go in and do what you need to do. I will guard this place. No one else alive will know your whereabouts except me."

"Why does Yuan Shu want to help me?" Liu Zhaoqing asked again.

"I don't know the details, but the lord once said that you are the key to his destiny."

"God's will?"

Ji Ling, or Yuan Shu, was quite honest and told him the reason why he helped him.

This can also directly explain the rationality of Yuan Shu's motives, but things like "receiving the mandate of heaven" are too mysterious.

Most importantly, what destiny can he gain by helping himself?

Liu Zhaoqing couldn't figure it out for a while, and there was no time for him to think about it.

Since Yuan Shu felt that helping Liu Zhaoqing was helping himself, then Liu Zhaoqing would certainly accept it with pleasure, at least at this stage.

"Thank your master for me." After Liu Zhaoqing said this, he walked into the granary with Zhang Liao and his daughter.

All the soldiers they encountered were killed by them, and those who tried to escape would be killed by Ji Ling who was guarding outside.

In this way, Liu Zhaoqing performed a standard "stealth" performance.

As long as you kill all the enemies, you will naturally be in stealth mode.

The granary here was very large. Liu Zhaoqing saw at least twenty huge granaries just by running around when he was looking for soldiers.

Not to mention that there are some cellars that are not included.

All the granaries and cellars were opened, and Zhang Liao was responsible for sensing whether someone was hiding underground and could not be found.

Then Liu Zhaoqing, Zhang Liao and the little girl took down the torches used for lighting on the wall, and threw them into the granary and cellar.

The raging flames came into contact with the ripe rice, and in this dry June day, the flames were as unstoppable as a mudslide.

It only took a moment to set the granary and cellar on fire.

Then Liu Zhaoqing and others took less than ten breaths to burn down all the remaining granaries and cellars.

When he arrived outside the granary and saw the fire growing rapidly, Liu Zhaoqing felt relieved.

I was originally a little worried about whether the fire was big enough, but now it seems that I was worrying too much.

Not to mention whether Dong Zhuo could see the flames from the granary, after a while, even the mountains in Bingzhou should be able to clearly see the flames rising into the sky.

"Dong Zhuo's people who are still in Luoyang see that the fire will come soon, Marquis Changping should leave quickly." Ji Ling appeared from the darkness and said to Liu Zhaoqing.

Liu Zhaoqing nodded, then suddenly asked: "How did you know I was coming to this granary?"

"My lord told me. As for my lord, he only knew that you would come here and didn't even know what you were going to do." Ji Ling replied.

"What do you mean?"

Ji Ling didn't know how to explain it, and at this time, Zhang Liao and she also sensed someone coming.

"Hurry up, someone is coming. This fire can't be put out at all, there's no need to worry." After saying this, Ji Ling disappeared into the darkness.

Liu Zhaoqing and the other two immediately headed off into the distance. While running quickly through the alley, Zhang Liao suddenly sensed a sense of crisis.

"Oh no, that guy is chasing us!"

"Following us?" Liu Zhaoqing frowned. "How is it possible? How did she know where we were?"

"Roar!"

At this moment, a beast-like roar came from behind.

The three people's expressions suddenly changed.

"This voice... is it Chitu?"

This doesn't sound like the roar of a horse, but more like the roar of a ferocious beast. It comes from the ferocious beast Red Hare.

Well, since Red Hare has arrived, it goes without saying who is chasing him.

"The person coming is Lu Bu."

Shouldn't Lu Bu be at Hulao Pass? How come he appears in Luoyang?

But think about it, for Red Hare, the distance from Hulao Pass to Luoyang would probably take less than a moment to reach, which makes sense.

Liu Zhaoqing's eyes were slightly stern, and the next moment, the courtyard wall behind him suddenly collapsed.

In the smoke and dust, a brave general riding a strong horse, holding a halberd in his hand and wearing long feathers on his head broke through the fog.

"Don't look back, both of you. Leave her to me!" Liu Zhaoqing said to Zhang Liao and the little girl.

Then he climbed over a wall, tore off his sleeves, and ran while covering his mouth and nose.

At the same time, Lu Bu riding on Red Hare was like a steel chariot that was not afraid of pain, and he directly broke down the ten-foot-high courtyard wall.

Lu Bu also saw Liu Zhaoqing, who was the last one left. Although he could not see his face, Lu Bu knew that he would be able to see it if he killed him.

Swinging the halberd in his hand, Lu Bu smashed it towards Liu Zhaoqing. Liu Zhaoqing jumped up and jumped onto the roof. Lu Bu just held the halberd horizontally and chased after Liu Zhaoqing, using the halberd to destroy the house like cutting tofu, completely collapsing it.

Just when Lu Bu was about to chase Liu Zhaoqing again, she discovered that Liu Zhaoqing did not run away anymore, but faced her directly.

"Although he is a petty thief, he is also courageous." Lu Bu said calmly.

Then she looked back at the fire behind her and said, "After I get rid of you, I can go back and put out the fire."

After saying this, Liu Zhaoqing's eyes became even colder.

The reason he stopped was that he couldn't let Lu Bu go back, or even let her go back unscathed.

One reason is that with her abilities, she could probably really put out the fire.

The second is that since Lu Bu appeared here and did not fight with Dong Zhuo, Lu Bu is very likely a trump card of Dong Zhuo.

If Lu Bu was summoned by Dong Zhuo and joined the encirclement and annihilation battle, it would have a great impact on his subsequent plans.

Therefore, Liu Zhaoqing must at least injure Lu Bu.
