Chapter 51: Guo Jia's Clever Plan

  In the sea of fire, He Yun led the remaining soldiers to break through. The raging flames burned, and people in it clearly felt the scorching heat, as if they were in a furnace. Under the burning of the big fire, all the soldiers' hair was curled up by the burning, and some soldiers' hair had already been ignited by the big fire, struggling constantly in the sea of fire.

  He Yun wrapped a piece of cloth around his head, protecting his head and face, and galloped at the fastest speed.

  "Awesome!!!"

  The war horse whinnied, its cry echoing through the sea of flames.

  The raging flames of the barbecue caused the war horse's fur to curl up, and the war horse could not bear it, starting to run wildly.

  The soldiers were even more miserable and had to run desperately.

  "Hurry up, hurry up, seize the time."

  He Yun endured the choking thick smoke in the sea of fire and rushed forward at the fastest speed. The horses galloped wildly, the soldiers hurried along, and after they had killed their way out of the sea of fire, only twenty or thirty men were left under He Yun's command. At this time, He Yun was no longer elegant, but disheveled and covered in soot, with burns on his face and dirt all over his body, his hair already damaged.

  At this moment, He Yun was furious and attacked with all his might.

  The ancients said that the body and skin are received from one's parents, and must not be damaged. Now, his hair is injured, his body is wounded. In addition to this, his face has also been affected to a certain extent, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to him.

  Revenge!

  He must take revenge!

  He Yun's heart was filled with anger.

  "Sir, this time we suffered a disastrous defeat, General He and General Jiang were killed, what should we do?"

  A soldier lay dying with a wounded body.

  He Yunxian was furious, but suddenly burst out laughing loudly, causing the soldiers under his command to look at each other in confusion. He Yun waved his big hand and laughed loudly: "If Wang Lei leads the army to chase us, we will surely die. Unfortunately, unfortunately, Wang Lei actually ignored us and let us escape from the sea of fire. When we return to Xinshi County, reorganize our troops, and come again to conquer Wang Lei, we must take down Wang Lei in one fell swoop."

  "When you try to hit the tiger but it doesn't die, instead you get hurt by the tiger."

  "This official will escape this time, but next time he must be punished, Wang Lei is sure to die."

  He Yun's eyes were sharp and piercing, his words filled with strong self-confidence.

  The soldier's eyes suddenly lit up with a hopeful look, nodding and saying: "Sir is wise, Wang Lei has made a fatal mistake, after all he was too young, old ginger is still spicy."

  "Fall back! We'll return immediately by the same route and join up with the grain convoy."

  He Yun gave the order and the remaining twenty or thirty soldiers quickly retreated. Less than half an hour later, He Yun encountered a group of staff who were fleeing in disarray.

  He Yun Chen's face sank, and he asked, "What happened? Why is everyone in such a sorry state?"

  The staff officer's face was gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "Sir, less than half an hour after you left, a group of soldiers from Wuji County came to attack us. Although there were less than 200 people on the other side, these 200 soldiers were fierce and powerful. After a battle, we retreated step by step and had to flee. All our food and equipment have been taken away, we are defeated."

  "Good, very good!"

  He Yunqi's expression was extremely cold and he couldn't help but laugh, his eyes revealing a murderous intent that he made no effort to conceal.

  The staff saw He Yun's disheveled appearance and asked again: "General, you led the army to attack Wang Lei, what happened?"

  He Yun grunted and said: "We've fallen into Wang Lei's trap, retreat!"

  "Yes!"

  The staff no longer asked questions and followed He You together to retreat.

  ……

  Wuji County!

  Wang Lei returned triumphantly, accompanied by Hui Gong and Yu Du. Among them, Yu Du escorted the captured grain, equipment, etc., as well as a group of prisoners, which can be said to be a triumphant return. Prior to this, Yu Du was responsible for leading troops to attack He Yun's grain team. After the successful attack, he led his men to join forces with Wang Lei and returned together.

  With a wolf-toothed club slung over his shoulder, he rode his horse forward slowly, smiling: "My lord, this time we went to war, the generals under the command of Xinshi County were too poor. I fought with that little boy, and killed him in one move, but it was not satisfying!"

  Du Wei smiled slightly and continued: "Sir, I'll lead the troops to ambush the grain transport team of Xinshi County. With one charge, we can easily win without even breaking a sweat. Dealing with Xinshi County is too simple."

  Wang Lei smiled lightly and said, "This is because of Feng Xiao's careful planning, that we can win smoothly."

  With a solemn expression, he stood up and said: "Sir, you have made a plan to attack with fire and tied down He You's main force. Now that He You's main force has been annihilated, I don't know if your mission was carried out smoothly?"

  Yu Du said: "Sir, your talent is outstanding, you will surely achieve success."

  "Also said: 'I believe, sir, you will certainly not fail.'"

  ……

  Half a day earlier, Xinshi County town.

  At the city gate, Meng Po was closing her eyes and cultivating her spirit.

  At noon, the sun was high in the sky, and the official road was very hot. There were very few people coming and going, so Meng Bo had nothing to do as he guarded the gate. Not far from the city gate, a merchant caravan slowly approached. At the head of the procession was a horse-drawn carriage, driven by a sturdy, dark-faced, ugly middle-aged man.

  Behind the first horse carriage, there were several horse carriages carrying goods. A group of guards followed, with a large number of people, over 100, all of whom were tall and strong.

  Menbo woke up to the sound and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

  It's finally paid off!

  Menbo stretched his waist, lifted his spirits and stood up. He stood at the door with his legs apart, stretched out his hand, stopped the first carriage in front of him, and shouted loudly: "Stop, all goods must be inspected."

  The first carriage stopped, and the coachman got down with a smile on his face.

  Men Bo walked up and said loudly: "Check, all need to be checked!"

  He stood in front of the burly man, a smile on his face, and his expression had already determined that the other party would give him benefits. As long as they were business associates, they generally understood the reason. At this time, Mo Bo saw the black-faced big man stretch out his hand to touch his sleeve, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

  It seems this kid is sensible.

  A fortune is about to fall into one's lap.

  "Hahaha!!"

  A blinding flash, a muffled sound, and Montague's chest hurt. The next moment, Montague felt his eyes darken, his expression dazed, and his eyes even more dizzy. In an instant, the figure in front of him disappeared, and Montague lost consciousness and fell to the ground.

  Fresh blood gushed out and stained the ground red.

  "Kill!"

  The black-faced Han shouted loudly and took out two large iron halberds from under the carriage, killing his way into the city.

  At the same time, the guards behind quickly took out their steel knives from the carriage and also rushed into the city in the shortest time. Nearly two hundred guards rushed into the city, under the leadership of the big man with a black face, like a hot knife through butter, almost effortlessly defeating the soldiers guarding the city gate, completely taking control of the city gate. With the city gate under control, the guards rushed straight to the county government office.

  In less than half an hour, the county government was under the control of the guards.

  The horse carriage moved forward and finally stopped in front of the county government office.

  A burly man with a black face stood beside him, holding a large iron spear and said respectfully: "Sir, the county government has been taken down, and the county is also under our control. You can come down now."

  The curtain of the carriage was lifted up, and a young man with a delicate face came down.

  The young man was about twenty years old, with a pale face and no beard, his eyes shining brightly, full of strong self-confidence.

  This man was none other than Guo Jia.

  He smiled and calmly instructed, "Typical Sima, immediately appease the people and replace the soldiers at the city gate with our own. From now on, our people are the original Xinshi County soldiers. Remember, whether the plan succeeds or not depends on your performance."

  "Sir, rest assured, Dian Wei understands!"
