Chapter 9

Lu Bu nodded, "You two go get the kerosene immediately."

The two men responded hurriedly and went to tell the soldiers to get kerosene.

Lu Bu stood under the tree, watching the waterwheel getting tighter and tighter. He made some calculations in his mind, turned to Zhang Hu and gave a few instructions, then walked towards the other side of the woods with Li Gu and several other guards.

Everyone came to the river and found a hidden place to hide.

"Li Gu, I am really tired. I want to sleep for a while. Please keep an eye on me. No one is allowed to come near me. Do you understand?"

Zhang Hu and Li Gu were Lu Bu's most trusted guards. When they were in Bingzhou, Lu Bu saved their lives and vowed to repay Marquis Wen for the rest of his life.

After Lu Bu finished instructing Li Gu, he leaned against the tree, opened the control panel, looked at the square in the middle, and thought silently in his heart.

"Use a clone."

As soon as Lu Bu's voice fell, the system's beep sounded.

"Since the host uses the clone skill for the first time, we are specially rewarded with a chance to choose. Please use it."

After hearing this prompt from the system, Lu Bu was overjoyed and hesitated!

If you can choose the person who comes, can you choose Cao Mengde?

If you choose Cao Mengde!

Immediately order troops to retreat?

Impossible, even if he retreats, when he reacts, he will lead his troops back to kill him, and it will also make him more suspicious.

Order the food to be burned?

Impossible!

As the commander-in-chief of an army, how could he order his own food to be burned? Even if he decided to burn his food, I'm afraid his subordinates would not agree.

The food is burned, what will everyone eat?

Do you want to burn the food yourself?

This is even more impossible!

Cao Mengde will definitely have many guards when he travels. It is impossible to burn the food in front of many guards.

Lu Bu hesitated for a long time, and suddenly found that it was even more inconvenient to fall on Cao Mengde.

On the contrary, the person pushing the cart in front of me is the most suitable candidate.

He had a water tanker with a large barrel that could hold a lot of kerosene.

In comparison, this gang leader actually has an advantage over Cao Mengde.

Thinking of this, Lu Bu no longer hesitated, looked at the leading soldiers who had arrived at the river, and thought silently in his heart.

"Choose the person pushing the cart."

As Lu Bu's words fell, his vision suddenly went dark. When he regained consciousness, he could already hear the sound of running water.

Lu Bu opened his eyes and saw that he was already standing by the lake, next to the waterwheel he had just seen.

It has really arrived!

Lu Bu's eyes flashed with ecstasy, and he immediately waved vigorously towards the woods.

Zhang Hu, who was standing by the woods, was still doubting how the man pushing the cart happened to be Wen Hou's internal agent. But when he saw the man waving to this side, he was ecstatic and hurriedly turned to Zhang Liao and Zhang Liao next to him.

Cheng Lian said softly.

"Two generals, that person has already sent the signal. You can send someone to deliver the kerosene."

Zhang Liao frowned and looked at the leading soldier by the river. He was a little hesitant and asked tentatively.

"Zhang Huwei, this matter is of great importance. Should we wait until Marquis Wen comes back before making a decision?"

Zhang Hu remembered what Lu Bu said before leaving and shook his head, "Marquis Wen has ordered you not to hesitate. Time is running out. Send the kerosene as soon as possible."

Zhang Liao still couldn't believe it, but Cheng Lian on the side had already ordered his soldiers to walk towards the river with the jars of kerosene.

Outside the woods is a plain, and Cao Jun's camp is not far away. If you walk from the plain to the waterwheel, unless you are very lucky, you will definitely be seen by Cao Jun soldiers in the camp.

To be on the safe side, the soldiers of Lu Bu's army came to the river, jumped into the river, walked down the river, and slowly walked towards the waterwheel.

Zhang Liao was holding a jar of kerosene in his hand, frowning, looking at the water tanker in front of him, his eyes full of vigilance.

This thing is so weird!

Marquis Wen actually arranged internal support among Cao's army!

If it was Chen Gong, Zhang Liao still believed it, but if Marquis Wen arranged an internal response, it was impossible no matter how he thought!

Zhang Liao saw that he was getting closer and closer to the waterwheel. He held the oil jar in one hand and the other hand on the handle of the knife. As long as the other party made any changes, he would not hold back.

Just as Zhang Liao was about to speak when he arrived at the waterwheel, the leading soldier standing on the shore was already waving to Zhang Liao impatiently.

"Wenyuan, hurry up!"

"Wenyuan?"

Zhang Liao looked at the honest-faced leader with stern eyes, already holding the handle of the knife tightly with one hand.

The leader was obviously stunned, and then he waved his hand hurriedly, "No, it's General Wenyuan, give me the oil jar quickly."

Zhang Liao handed over the oil jar and asked in a low voice, "Are you the internal agent sent by Marquis Wen?"

The leader of the group nodded hurriedly, "I am the internal agent sent by Marquis Wen. I can't be wrong."

Zhang Liao pretended to be casual and asked, "How long has it been?"

Well!

The leader was stunned again, "It's been a year."

Zhang Liao frowned, "What do you want to do?"

When the leader saw Zhang Liao's alert eyes, a smile suddenly appeared on his face that didn't match his honest expression.

"General Wenyuan, you don't have to doubt me. Don't worry. Marquis Wen saved my life. I won't lie to you."

Cheng Lian rushed over from behind and pulled Zhang Liao over, "Don't block the front, everyone is waiting!"

Zhang Liang felt that this guy was very suspicious, but in front of Cheng Lian, he couldn't say anything more, so he could only smile bitterly and retreat.

A year ago, they had just arrived in Yanzhou. Could it be that Marquis Wen had already arranged internal support for Cao Jun?

impossible!

The soldiers of Lu Bu's army stood in the water and hid on the edge of the river bed. They handed over the oil jars in their hands one by one, and the soldiers put them into the big wooden barrels.

After loading the kerosene, the gang leader stopped pulling water and turned around to leave.

Zhang Liao suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "How do you want to leave?"

"I!"

The leader was obviously stunned, then waved his hand, "General Wenyuan, don't worry, I have my own solution."

After finishing speaking, the gang leader hurriedly lifted up the cart and pushed it towards Cao Jun's camp in a panic, as if he was afraid that Zhang Liao would ask again.

Cheng Lian patted Zhang Liao who was in a daze, "Old Zhang, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Liao looked at the retreating figures of the leading soldiers and suddenly sighed, "Lao Cheng, if he can really burn Cao's army's food, he won't be able to get out."

Hearing these words, Cheng Lian's eyes suddenly widened, he turned his head and looked at the retreating fire-headed soldier, and said with emotion, "I didn't expect that Marquis Wen would have such a loyal and brave internal response."

Zhang Liao sighed, "Let's go back."

Everyone walked along the river bed and carefully returned to the river. After briefly cleaning up the water stains on their bodies, they immediately walked towards the place where the war horses were hidden.
