Chapter 539: Pang Tong defeats Zhuge Liang and sets the new country on fire
On the high mound, Lu Bu stood with his head held high.
Looking at the soldiers all over the mountains and plains below, flags fluttering, my heart was filled with excitement.
Once upon a time, in this era of war and turmoil, heroes from all walks of life appeared on stage, and Lu Bu's power was weak.
When doing anything, he had to be cautious in his words and deeds, and even temporarily bent down to serve the old thief Dong Zhuo.
But now, Lu Bu relied on his extraordinary martial arts and the time traveler's prophecy of the future to finally reach where he is today step by step.
In many previous wars, he had defeated many with less.
At this time, he was very confident. There were 80 million troops in the mountains and plains.
This group of troops, in any era of history, all famous heroes would not dare to underestimate.
"Hahaha."
Lu Bu faced the strong wind with his hands behind his back, letting his hair sway in the wind, and laughed loudly.
"At this time, the north of the world is in my hands, Lu Bu. Now I am going south to wipe out Liu Biao, and then cross the river to annihilate Sun Quan. Where can Liu Bei's son run?"
"My lord Shengming!"
Hearing Lu Bu's heroic words, the generals were also filled with excitement, and they clasped their fists and shouted together.
Immediately afterwards, there were roars one after another among the huge army.
"Will win, win!"
The sound was deafening, soaring into the sky, and the earth trembled.
As before, Lu Bu appointed himself as a vanguard officer and led [-] troops to Wancheng first. Zhang Xiu and Pang Tong had already led their troops out of the city to greet him.
"My lord, fine wine has been prepared in the city. Let's go into the city and rest for a while before marching."
Zhang Xiu, the spear king of the North, hurriedly stepped forward to hold Lu Bu's red rabbit horse.
"No, the military commander is very quick. I order you to set off with me immediately and go straight to Liu Bei's new territory."
"Yes!"
Zhang Xiu sighed in his heart, Lu Bu was still as vigorous and resolute as ever, without any sloppiness.
Thanks to his early preparation, he immediately ordered the soldiers of Wancheng to follow Lu Bu.
The army marched for several days and vaguely saw the small town of Xinye, standing alone in the sunshine.
There was no one on the top of the city or at the gate, and it looked lifeless.
"Ha ha,"
Zang Ba ran forward two steps, pointed at Xinye and shouted.
"Brother, look, there is no one in Xinye.
Liu Bei must have led his troops and fled long ago when he heard that we were coming. "
Hao Meng also touched his hands and laughed, his huge face full of joy.
"Yes, yes, Liu Bei is as timid as a mouse. Since he has run away and our soldiers have been marching all night, why don't we go to Xinye to have dinner and rest?"
Lu Bu frowned, feeling a bad feeling in his heart.
He thought that Zhuge Liang had set fire to Xinye and Cao's army suffered heavy losses. He could not make the same mistake again.
Lu Bu: "There must be a scam in Xinye Gongcheng, let's take a detour."
Zang Ba and Hao Meng said: "Brother, you are too cautious. Even if there are ambushes in the empty city, we can just destroy them together."
"Be careful and don't say too much."
Lu Bu's voice was stern, but everyone became more suspicious.
After receiving the order, the soldiers, who were originally happy to have a place to rest, were all panting and complaining.
"Liu Bei has already run away, so what else can he do to cheat? Can't he find a house to rest after marching for hundreds of miles?"
"Yes, the officials ride horses and cars, and we all walk on two legs, and several pairs of straw sandals are worn out."
"I'm so tired! I wish I could find a big bed and have a good sleep."
Lu Bu's military orders were strict, and just when everyone was about to leave helplessly, Pang Tong smiled proudly, showing two big buck teeth.
"Haha, my lord is indeed wise and saw through Zhuge Liang's treacherous plan."
"Thank you sir for the compliment.
People all over the world say that Zhuge Kongming is a sleeping dragon, and Mr. Pang Tong, you are a phoenix chick.
I hope that you, sir, can defeat the enemy for me, and your title will surely be above all others in the future. "
On the way to the march, Lu Bu got the news that Liu Bei had visited the thatched cottage three times and had received news from Zhuge Liang.
He was so angry that he cursed loudly.
What a great Zhuge Liang, he didn't even meet him in person in Longzhong, but in the end he still let Liu Bei take advantage.
mmp.
"My subordinates must do their best to repay the Lord for his kindness."
Lu Bu had always respected Pang Tong, and the latter was of course very happy. At this time, he raised his hand and pointed to Xinye.
"My lord is right, there must be something wrong with Xinye.
Zhuge Kongming likes to use external forces to defeat the enemy. Judging from the current situation of Xinye, it looks ordinary on the outside, but if you look closely, you can find some clues.
That is, there is no water in the pots, pans, and water jars. I guess the external force Kong Ming wants to use must be fire.
The lord can send someone to check carefully, and they will definitely find gunpowder, kerosene, dry firewood and other items. "
Lu Bu reined in his horse and admired in his heart, Feng Chu Pang Tong was indeed worthy of his reputation, and he had never respected him in vain before.
Lu Bu: "I also guess that Zhuge Liang must want to attack with fire, but what can I do if I guess it? At most, I can take a detour and chase him."
"No."
Unexpectedly, Pang Tong smiled mysteriously.
"We can deliberately light the New Field Fire while cooking. When Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang see the fire in the distance, they think we have fallen into a trap, so they will definitely become slack and slow down their march, making it easier for us to catch up.
In addition, I guess there will be ambushing Liu Bei troops rushing out, and we will take the opportunity to eliminate them. "
Pang Tong stroked his hairy beard a few times. When he smiled, his face was full of wrinkles, and a black mole trembled up and down.
However, after hearing Pang Tong's plan, no one dared to laugh at Pang Tong's ugly appearance, and they all admired it in their hearts.
Zhang Xiu praised: "The battle between Crouching Dragon and Phoenix is really wonderful, I admire it."
Hao Meng, with a shy face, patted her chest happily and said, "Hey, I personally invited Mr. Pang Tong. I'm good, right?"
Lu Bu was also very happy and quickly arranged for people to follow the plan.
When it was time to make lunch, Li Dian led people into Xinye and set fire everywhere.
Due to Zhuge Liang's clever arrangement of flammable materials, the fire instantly became bigger.
Bang bang bang!
There were also a lot of kerosene explosions, sparks flying, and soon Xinye City was submerged in a sea of flames.
Although Lu Bu's army was well prepared, several soldiers still had their clothes on fire and screamed loudly. Others hurriedly covered them with soil to save them.
"Depend on!"
Lu Bu couldn't help but click his tongue as he looked at the blazing fire that shot straight into the sky.
"Zhuge Liang is indeed an expert at playing with fire. If we had not seen through his plot, our army would have suffered heavy losses."
Zang Ba: "Zhuge Liang is so ruthless. The fire I set in Xinye was far different from his fire."
The soldier who had complained before was now so frightened that his eyes were filled with fear and he lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
They all felt lucky to have met a smart lord, otherwise they would have been killed in the sparks.
Just when everyone was surprised, they heard the roar of war drums from both directions at the same time.
Then, two armies roared out.
"Haha, kill him, Lu Bu fell into the trap."
"Don't let Lu Bu escape. Run quickly and try to burn Lu Bu to death. We will become famous in one battle."
