As the sun sets, it's getting dark.

Duchang County, a residential.

This is the residence of Lin Yong, the commander of the royal guards in Duchang County. Lin Yong is young, nearly 30 years old, with eight character eyebrows and fierce eyes, which makes people feel aggressive. His appearance is very rough, typical of the northern big man.

As a matter of fact, Lin yongben is not from Duchang County. He was born in Zhuo County, Youzhou. When he was young, he wandered around and finally settled down in Duchang County.

Lin Yong himself, when the royal guards told the development, also became the leader of the royal guards in Duchang County.

In the study, Lin Yong is reading a book.

He waited for the leaf herring to come back and report the news.

As a matter of fact, ye Qingyu had already returned to the city from outside the city. However, after ye came back, Lin Yong arranged for ye Qingyu to go to the county government to report to the magistrate of Duchang County, informing him that the action in the evening was going on as scheduled without any impact.

"Step on it! Step on it

A sound of walking came, Lin Yong looked up, but saw Ye Qingyu stride forward.

After ye Qingyu entered, he bowed and said, "chief, Pei county magistrate has agreed. He asked us to gather outside the county government on time at midnight and go to the granary with him. "

"Good!"

Lin Yong responded directly.

The magistrate of Duchang County was named Pei Qian. Lin Yong knew him, because Pei Qian led the way to the granary. Without Pei Qian to lead the way, it was not easy to get close to the granary.

After the herring retreated, he went down to prepare.

Time goes by little.

Before the time of Haishi, Lin Yong and ye Qingyu were already in action. They were all dressed in the clothes of the county yamen, which they had taken from the county yamen.

Lin Yong and his party had 100 people.

The party came to the county government, just close to the time of Hai, and Pei Qian also came out. Pei Qiannian was nearly forty years old. He was a gentle Confucian. When he saw Lin Yong, he said, "Lord Lin, let's go!"

"Good!"

Lin Yong should go down.

When the forces of the two sides converge, there are about 200 soldiers.

Along the street, they went straight to the granary, about a quarter of an hour from the county government to the granary. This journey for Lin Yong, a heart has been raised in mid air.

I'm afraid I'll meet the soldiers on patrol.

All along the way, everything went smoothly and safely came to the location of the granary.

The generals stationed in the granary were Liu Bei's men. When Pei Qian led his troops forward and was more than 20 steps away from the granary, the garrison general was not on guard because he knew Pei Qian. He just stopped and said, "Pei county magistrate, why are you bringing people here?"

Pei Qian said in a deep voice: "the Duke of Chu said that it is very likely that Zhang Xiu will attack at night. All the troops are stationed on the top of the city. Therefore, now I am specially arranged to change the defense. You will come back to guard in the middle of the night after your rest and in the morning tomorrow

The garrison general, however, had no doubt. After all, Pei Qian had been cooperating. Even when he arrived, Pei Qian took out the grain of Changdu county to Liu Bei, so that Liu Bei could guard it.

The general nodded and ordered the soldiers to leave.

Each side moves forward.

When the distance between the two sides was less than three steps, Lin Yong did not delay any longer and ordered: "kill!"

At his command, the royal guards and the rest of the soldiers quickly pulled out their swords and directly killed them.

Originally, there were only more than 60 soldiers stationed near the granary, but now they were suddenly attacked. They had no defense at all. They were all killed in an instant.

More than 60 people were killed.

After Lin Yong killed people, he immediately arranged for them to light a fire.

With a torch thrown into the granary, the huge granary, in a short time, will burn up. Originally the granary was very easy to be ignited, but now the flames are running wildly. These countless fires are constantly burning and moving. In a short time, they have formed a torrential fire.

The whole granary was as bright as day in the red light of the fire.

Even as the fire grew, the darkness around the granary was dispersed.

Lin Yong and Pei Qian look at each other, but they retreat quickly. Because all the soldiers stationed at the scene were killed, and no one saw him, Lin Yonggen was not worried about exposure.

After the evacuation, the granary was still burning.

"Hoo! Hoo

The fire was burning, and even from a distance, the whole city could be seen.

In the direction of the tower, on the tower where the west gate was located, the soldiers stationed found it and immediately reported it to Zhuge Liang.

When Zhuge Liang saw a fire burning in the north of the city, especially the fire, which had dispelled the darkness and even the whole city, he frowned and had a bad feeling.

This seems to be where the granary is.

Could it be that

Zhuge Liang had a guess in his heart and didn't dare to delay. He immediately arranged for the soldiers to inquire about the news. Then Zhuge Liang went straight to Liu Bei's room on the upper floor of the city.When Zhuge Liang saw Liu Bei, he immediately reported: "my Lord, it's not good. Our food and grass may have been ignited by the fire and turned into a sea of fire. For the time being, however, it is not clear whether this is the case. At present, I have arranged for soldiers to go to inquire for information. "

"What?"

Liu Bei's heart suddenly panicked.

Food and grass are crucial.

Once the grain and grass are lost, it means that the whole army has lost its logistic supply and can no longer guarantee the food for the soldiers.

Liu Bei said in a deep voice: "now the situation is extremely dangerous. If the grain and grass were really burned, I'm afraid that in such a big Changdu County, it would be difficult for us to have a foothold. Kong Ming, what do you think we should do? "

Zhuge Liang frowned with solemn expression.

"Dong! Dong

All of a sudden, the rapid sound of war drums sounded from outside the city, which broke the tranquility of the night. Outside the city, there was a torch, which burned and dispersed the darkness.

"Newspaper!"

The next moment, a soldier came to Liu Bei's room and reported in a loud voice: "Duke Chu, it's not good. There were countless Qin troops outside the city, and the Qin troops led by Zhao Yun came to attack at night. "

Liu Bei's face has changed a lot.

If the food and grass were not burning in the city, then Zhao Yun could not attack overnight. Only when food and grass are burning in the city will Zhao Yun launch an attack, intending to take advantage of the situation to attack Changdu county.

"Liu Bei, if your food and grass are burned, you will surely be defeated!"

All of a sudden, the sound of a neat and sincere cry sounded from outside the city. This is the cry of countless people, the voice gathered together, straight into the sky, but also spread all over the city.

When the news came out, Liu Bei soldiers stationed on the city tower heard it, they were all cool in their hearts.

Every soldier was worried.

Because the city's food and grass were burned, they no longer have food supplies, to resist Zhao Yun's army for a long time, it is just like a fool's dream.

Zhuge Liang's face changed again and again, because Zhao Yun's plan was a chain game. First, he arranged for people to burn the granary, followed by soldiers to attack at night, and finally arranged for people to make a noise to say that the granary was burned.

With the city burning, all the soldiers under Liu Bei's command would believe and know about the collapse of the granary. No one would doubt it.

So much so that the morale of the army collapsed.

Zhuge Liang sighed in his heart and said, "Lord, withdraw. As long as Zhao Yun is killed tonight, once he attacks, we can't stop him at all. If you delay and get stuck in Changdu County, I'm afraid you can't escape. At present, we have to retreat first! "

"Alas..."

Liu Bei sighed.

At this time, endless helplessness rose in his heart. In the past, he fought with Zhang Xiu in Jingzhou, so that he was calculated by Zhang Xiu. In the past, he went north from Runan County to help Cao Cao, and was calculated by Zhang Xiu. Now, he went to Changdu county from Xuzhou, and was calculated by Zhao Yun under Zhang Xiu's command. He has never won a single victory. He is really depressed.

"Go away!"

Liu Bei had no choice but to give an order.

"Here it is

When Zhuge Liang got the order, he immediately arranged to go on. In less than half a quarter of an hour, Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei and others had left the west of the city and started to go to the east city, ready to break through from the east city of Changdu county.
