Chapter 534

Inside the city, granary!

There are not many soldiers stationed in this place, only more than 30 soldiers to maintain order. As long as the city is not broken, the granary is safe. Huo Jun is in charge of food security. He often patrols inside.

This day is approaching noon.

Huo Jun and Chen Dao came to the granary and inspected it as usual. But the soldiers stayed outside and did not follow in. Chen Dao followed Huo Jun and said, "brother Zhongmiao, can't you save so much food?"

For burning grain, Chen Dao is still a little impatient.

If food can be left, Jingzhou soldiers can at least support it for a period of time.

It's a pity to burn a fire.

Huo Jun shook his head and said: "there is no way to do this. If we want to move these grains and make empty plans, it will definitely have a huge impact, but it will affect the whole plan."

Chen Dao sighed and said, "that's all

Huo Jun said: "uncle to brother, this grain is just a drizzle for Jingzhou. The current capacity of Jingzhou is enough to provide food for the soldiers, so there is no need to have any regrets. If these grains are not burned, they will be piled up with the lives of countless soldiers. It's worth the lives of thousands of soldiers in exchange for these grains. "

Chen Dao nodded and said, "I understand the truth, but I feel pity."

At the beginning, Liu Bei had to hand over Zhao Yun to Liu Xiu because of a little grain. Now, with so much food, Chen Dao always has a little bit of a knot in his heart when he wants to burn it.

Huo Jun said, "it's almost time to prepare."

Two people went to the inside of the granary, and then Chen took out the flint, soon lit the fire.

"Hoo! Hoo

The fire ignited and burned rapidly.

In particular, the granary is extremely dry. With Mars, it burns quickly.

In the granary, smoke billowed.

"There's a fire. Come and put it out."

Huo Jun roars and runs out, while Chen Dao follows Huo Jun and rushes out together. Not long after, they had already rushed out of the granary and stood at the door. Looking at the more than 30 soldiers at the door, Huo Jun ordered: "quick, quick, prepare water to put out the fire. There is a fire in the granary."

More than 30 soldiers were shocked.

The granary is on fire!

How can it be? There is no Mars in it.

But looking up, you can see the burning fire and the smoke. This scene, so that a soldier quickly to draw water, and then drilled into the granary.

However, there was no time to rescue more than 30 soldiers.

The fire spread quickly.

The soldiers stationed in the granary retreated again and again, but finally they had to withdraw from the granary and could not get in at all.

Huo Jun was also anxious. He caught two soldiers and said, "no, we can't save the fire just by our strength. Now, you will go to the city tower and inform the county magistrate to put out the fire. "

"Yes

The two soldiers were ordered to turn around and leave.

After seeing the soldiers disappear in sight, Huo Jun looks at the billowing smoke, looks at the soldiers around him and says in a loud voice: "go to carry water and put out the fire as soon as possible. I'll go to the big families nearby and ask them to send for help. "

After giving orders, Huo Jun turned around and left.

Chen Dao followed Huo Jun and quickly disappeared in the public's sight.

……

Outside the city, the siege continues.

Suddenly, Liu Xiu saw the burning smoke in the city.

The smoke gradually more and more dense, actually in the sky for a long time. Liu Xiu was overjoyed. He looked at Wen pin and ordered: "Wen pin, the granary in the city has been on fire. Now he will withdraw temporarily."

"No!"

After Wen pin got the order, he immediately called for a withdrawal.

The soldiers of Jingzhou, who were attacking the city, got the order and went back like the tide.

The soldiers of Jingzhou retreated, and all the soldiers stationed on the tower were relieved.

However, suddenly someone found the burning smoke in the city. Huang Quan and Qu Zheng saw it. Qu Zheng frowned and said, "why is there a fire suddenly in the city? It's still so big."

"It's normal to have a fire somewhere," Huang said

After a turn, he said: "at noon, the other party finally retreated. Now, we can finally take a breath, take a rest, and then resist the attack of Jingzhou soldiers. "

Qu Zheng said, "today is the second day. I don't know when the reinforcements will arrive."

Huang Quan said: "I'm already on my way here. It's probably only one or two days. We'll hold on until the reinforcements come. It's impossible for Liu Xiu to break Quren county. "

Qu Zheng nodded, his eyes still outside the city.At this time, the retreated Jingzhou army had been arrayed and cleaned up.

Looking at the army's granary on fire, he ordered to clean up again

"The granary in the city is on fire!"

"The granary in the city is on fire!"

All the soldiers of Jingzhou army were shouting.

Neat voice, resounding inside and outside the city.

When Huang Quan heard the news, he was stunned, and his face showed an incredible look. How could the granary in the city catch fire? Looking at the soldiers around him, he was surprised to see their faces. He said in a loud voice, "the Jingzhou army is deceitful. They deliberately do this in order to shake our morale."

The soldiers on the tower listened, and their faces were still dignified.

One by one, he looked at the location of the fire in the city.

Isn't the place where the smoke is, exactly where the granary is?

Qu Zheng came to huangquan and said, "magistrate Huang, as soon as Jingzhou soldiers outside the city saw the smoke rising in the city, they withdrew. Then they began to shout that the granary in the city was on fire. This is a strange thing! Is it because Liu Xiu arranged that the granary in the city caught fire? "

Huang Quan's face suddenly turned white!

A trace of bad premonition, in the heart of the yellow spring breeding out.

Is the granary really on fire?

No, it's impossible.

Huang Quan didn't believe in this possibility at all. He brushed his sleeves and said, "Qu Zheng, the granary has money to guard. If he wants to defeat Liu Xiu and become famous, he will do his best. There is no problem with the granary."

Qu Zheng sighed: "I hope it's as you said!"

"Newspaper!"

Suddenly, an urgent voice came from afar.

It was the soldiers who came to report. Before they got to the city floor, they cried out, "the granary is on fire. No, the granary is on fire." Two soldiers came running, shouting as they ran.

Boom!

When countless soldiers heard this, their minds were blank and they were all confused.

The granary is really on fire!

How can they resist without food?

Huang Quan heard the news, legs a soft, almost fell to the ground. He stretched out his hand on the wall, his face full of incredible expression, murmured: "impossible, how can it be?"

Qu Zheng Gudong swallowed his saliva and said, "magistrate Huang, what should we do now?"

At this moment, Qu Zheng's heart has begun to retreat.

The grain has been burned, the impact is too big.

As a matter of fact, if Liu Xiu's army is not outside and the food is gone, the major families can sit together to discuss and gather food again. But now Liu Xiu's eyes are on the outside. When the soldiers in the army hear this, their morale will collapse instantly.

Huang Quan's heart is also very intersection, he quickly shuttled among the soldiers, told the soldiers that there are other food in the city, so that the soldiers don't have to take care of the burning granary.

However, this effect is not great.

The morale of the army is still very low.

A quarter of an hour later, outside the city suddenly thought of the rumble of war drums.

"Kill

"Enter Quren county."

"Kill

Countless soldiers roared and began to attack again. This time, the soldiers of Jingzhou rushed down the mountain with a fierce tiger. When they rushed, the officers and soldiers on the tower didn't want to fight at all.

The grain was burned and the morale of the army was unstable.

But the Jingzhou army is different, and its momentum is like a rainbow.

Comparing the two sides, the garrison of quren County fell into a disadvantage in an instant.

The two sides soon fought again. Soon after the beginning of the fight, the soldiers who were guarding the city no longer resisted and ran away. After this situation appeared, many soldiers followed suit.

"I surrender!"

"I will surrender, don't kill me!"

Not long after, there were soldiers kneeling down to surrender.

At the moment, quren County no longer has any resistance, it has been defeated like a mountain.
