    Under the dim moonlight, Ji Ling led the army towards Cao Cao's military camp, cautiously.

    As soon as he arrived at the camp, Liu Ye knew that there was no one inside.

    "General Ji, just rush up and light a fire." Liu Ye suggested.

    But how could Ji Ling be willing?

    He holds the elite of Yuan Shu's army in his hand. If all of them are lost, Yuan Shu will definitely kill him.

    Ji Ling did not dare to take risks and said perfunctorily: "No hurry, no hurry, wait for the scout's report."

    The next moment, a scout came to report and said: "There are many soldiers and horses in the camp and the guards are tight. It may be difficult to succeed."

    Liu Ye looked from a distance and judged: "There is no one in the camp, just some straw men."

    Ji Ling didn't believe it and rolled his eyes at Liu Ye. You said that a straw man is a straw man. What if he didn't? Wouldn't he be throwing himself into a trap?

    Liu Ye was helpless. These were not Yangzhou soldiers and horses. His words had no weight, so he had to say: "General Ji can observe for a while. These figures will not move at all."

    Ji Ling waited for a while to see if Cao Cao's army would move.

    "Sir, he came from Yangzhou and has extensive knowledge. I am a rough man, so don't try to trick me." Ji Ling said.

    Liu Ye saw that Ji Ling was hesitant and tried to shirk him in every possible way, so he said forcefully: "Military orders are like mountains, and General Ji has received them. If someone's inference is wrong, General Ji can still shirk him in front of Yuan Shu. If the opportunity is delayed, I'm afraid he will have to refuse."  It¡¯s his fault.¡±

    Ji Ling¡¯s mind was stubborn, but Liu Ye¡¯s words were easy to understand, and he understood it immediately.

    ¡°If someone takes responsibility, he still has to fight for the reasons.

    "Sir, would you like to issue a military order?"

    What are you afraid of?

    Liu Ye promised on the spot in front of everyone that if Cao Cao's troops in the camp exceed 10,000, he is willing to deal with them according to military law.

    "I will send troops right now." Ji Ling said.

    During this period of waiting, Ji Ling didn't do anything, such as preparing something to start the fire.

    Liu Ye made some calculations and asked Ji Lingbing to divide the fire into three groups and light the fire from three directions to directly expand the fire.  Ji Ling quickly agreed to this.

    Ji Ling led an army of 10,000 people and sneaked close to the camp, right under the eyes of the "guards".  When I walked in, I saw that it was all straw.

    "Light the fire!"

    With an order, Ji Ling¡¯s cronies lit the first fire.

    "Enemy attack!"

    Cao Cao's army was in chaos and hurriedly met the enemy.

    Ji Ling took the lead, snatched the gate of the camp, and took control of the gate in three strikes, five divided by two, and it was really easy.

    General Cao Cao led his army to kill him. Ji Ling made a brief observation and found that there were only a few thousand troops.  For Cao's army, which numbered as many as 200,000, this strength was simply not enough.

    "Kill!" Ji Ling shouted and fought with Cao Cao's army.

    As flesh and blood fight against each other, the sound of horns continues.

    This is what was agreed upon. Ji Ling is responsible for containing the main force of the defenders so that the other two groups can set fire.

    Sure enough, everything developed according to the script.

    Fires ignited on the north and south sides, lighting up the sky.

    Ji Ling was in a good mood. As long as the camp was completely destroyed, it would be a great achievement.  Dongyang Hou ate meat, now it was his turn to drink soup.

    The guards left behind by Cao Cao's army were only old, weak, sick and disabled, and Ji Ling dispersed them with a single charge.

    Just as Ji Ling was about to pursue him, Liu Ye stopped him and said:

    "Don't worry about those fleeing Cao Cao troops, light the fire! Otherwise, once Cao Cao's troops return to camp, we will be in doom."

    Ji Ling was startled and ordered the soldiers: "Have you heard that? Why don't you set a fire quickly? Is it harmful to set a fire? Do you want me to teach you?"

    Everyone was in a hurry.

    Fortunately, the straw men left behind by Cao Cao's army were of great help. They had something to ignite the fire, and the fire spread quickly.

    Ji Ling was very satisfied and led his army to the next location.

    " Two hundred thousand troops camped for dozens of miles, and even if there were only sporadic Cao Cao's troops blocking their way, Ji Ling himself would be half-dead from exhaustion.

    After arriving at the place where Cao Cao's army stored grain, Ji Ling was overjoyed and said, "Move everyone."

    "General Ji, our army has a mission and we cannot waste time." Liu Ye said.

    "What should we do?" Ji Ling suddenly ran out of ideas.

    "Burn them all." Liu Ye said calmly.

    Ji Ling was stunned and said: "Burn them all? This is enough food for 200,000 people for a month."

    "Once Cao Cao's army returns,??, our army is facing a dead end, does the general want to carry food on his back?  Liu Ye said.

    Ji Ling finally made up his mind and lit the first fire himself. At this moment, his heart was bleeding.

    Looking at the mountains of food and grass, Ji Ling could only sigh.  Yangzhou is rich and wealthy, so they don't care about this little wealth, but in the small place of Runan, the seizure is all credit.

    "If the lord can eat the captured food and grass, he will be very happy. When he is happy, won't his official position rise rapidly?"

    Thinking of this, Ji Ling wrapped about a pound of grain in cloth and put it in his arms.

    The fire became fiercer and engulfed everything.

    How vast the camp of Cao Cao's army is, and how spectacular it is at this moment.

    Unlike Liu Ye¡¯s expectation, Cao Cao¡¯s army did not return reinforcements.  Cao Cao actually ignored such a momentum, which shows that the front line has reached a life-or-death situation.

    No matter how hard they work here, only the Lord can decide the outcome.

    Thinking of this, Liu Ye couldn't help but sigh.

    ¡°Add some fire and let everyone see it!¡±

    "Okay." Ji Ling said happily.

    Cao Caojun has been suppressed by Cao Caojun for a long time. Now that he finally has the opportunity to recover one game, Ji Ling let go directly.

    The fire was burning endlessly, and there was a crackling sound.

    Yuan Shujun fell into madness and destroyed everything crazily, which made them feel happy.

    Without this camp, Cao Cao's army would have no place to stand.  Even if both sides suffered losses, Cao Cao's army had to retreat.

    Thinking of this, Liu Ye felt better.

    "Brothers, burn them for me. This is a great gift from us to Cao Cao's army." Ji Ling laughed.

    At first he was still in the mood to search the camp, but now he just lit a fire and left.

    Half an hour later, Ji Ling's 30,000 troops gathered together, feeling the rolling heat wave and filled with emotions.

    "I didn't expect that Cao Cao would be here today!"

    When he said this, Ji Ling was very proud, as if what he burned was not an empty camp, but Cao Cao's 200,000-strong army.

    "General Ji, let's cut off Cao Cao's army's retreat," Liu Ye said.

    "Don't worry, the soldiers are exhausted. How much fighting power can they have at this time? It's better to take a good rest." Ji Ling said, he is not stupid. He participated in the battle of hundreds of thousands of people. What kind of waves can these 30,000 people make?

    No matter how Liu Ye tried to persuade him, Ji Ling refused to agree and gave various excuses.

    When Liu Ye saw this, he had to give up.  If the lord wants to form an alliance with Yuan Shu in the future, he will definitely oppose it.

    In Runan, people are all acting like villains, and it is difficult for them to achieve great things.

    And could Cao Cao really not see the fire in the camp?

    it's not true.

    The billowing smoke and the sky-reaching fire are very conspicuous in the dark night, like a huge fire beast, devouring everything.

    "No, the camp was attacked." Xiahou Dun was shocked, but he did not dare to say it for fear of damaging the morale of the army.

    "Cao Cao's army was defeated and the camp was lost!" Yangzhou army didn't have so many scruples, so he opened his mouth and shouted.

    Cao Caojun, who was already nervous, suddenly collapsed.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
