Chapter 263 The army is in short supply(1/2)

late at night,

In Baidi City of Shu Kingdom,

Zhuge Jun (Ge Yun) was walking in the imperial garden admiring the moon.

The cool night breeze blows.

When he reached the depths of the bamboo forest, he couldn't help but turn around and ask the attendant next to him:

"Is there any news from Mr. Su Qin?"

Ever since Su Qin provided him with information three times and helped him achieve a 3:0 crushing game against Guan Yu,

He became more and more dependent on Su Qin,

I just think about it day and night, and worry about it.

Even when I was in school and waiting for the girl to reply,

None of them were so restless.

Because Su Qin is simply his plug-in,

This is the secret to his winning streak!

Unfortunately, the waiter shook his head and said:

"Report to Your Majesty."

"Old slave, I haven't received any news from Mr. Su Qin yet."

After hearing this, Zhuge Jun looked disappointed.

Depressedly said:

"well."

"I don't know what Mr. Su Qin is busy with now."

"Why didn't you send me a message?"

Unexpectedly, the more I talk about something, the more something comes up.

Not long after Zhuge Jun finished speaking,

Outside the imperial garden, a eunuch held a flying pigeon to deliver a message and strode towards him.

He shouted:

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

"Mr. Su Qin has news!"

"It's a flying pigeon coming from the direction of Shuzhong."

When Zhuge Jun heard this, his face suddenly lit up with joy, and he smiled and said:

"Here comes my great plan!"

"Guan Yu, this old bastard is going to be defeated again!"

After saying that, he quickly took the letter from Fei Ge,

Expand it and take a look,

I saw that it was still a familiar font,

Su Qin wrote in the letter:

"Guan Yu was stationed in Yongcheng, and there was only three days of food left in the city."

"Mi Zhu went to Tongcheng to borrow grain. He will set off at 10:00 two days later and send it to Yongcheng. He can cut off his food and grass halfway."

Zhuge Jun read it carefully several times, and then said with great joy:

"Su Qin, Su Qin, it has to be you!"

"This news is so important!"

"The troops and horses have not moved yet, but the food and grass go first!"

"Food and grass are the foundation of marching and fighting!"

"If Guan Yu's food and grass are cut off, what else will he have to fight with me?"

"Doesn't it mean that we will collapse without a fight?"

"Look at my move - the entire army is cut off!"

After saying that, he quickly said to the attendant next to him:

"Hurry up and write a letter for me, send it to Fengcheng, and inform General Jiang Wei,"

"Just two days later, there will be food and grass sent from Tongcheng to Yongcheng,"

"At that time, let him seize the grain and fodder, and then lead the army to surround Yongcheng."

"Guan Yu will starve to death without food rations! Hahaha..."

The chamberlain quickly bowed his head and accepted the order:

"Old slave, let's do it now."



Two days passed in the blink of an eye,

It was the day when Tongcheng released grain to Yongcheng.

Because food and grass are the lifeblood of the three armies, Guan Yu attaches great importance to it.

Not only did Mi Zhu come to borrow food in person, but he also ordered his deputy general Zhou Cang to escort him throughout the journey.

Ensure adequate supplies of food and grass.

As soon as Chen hour passed, the Tongcheng prefect delivered the grain and grass as agreed.

Mi Zhuzai checked it carefully, thanked him, and signed the IOU.

Then he and Zhou Cang slowly left Tongcheng and drove to Yongcheng with a baggage cart full of grain and grass.

Although this matter was done very covertly, the distance between Tongcheng and Yongcheng is not far, so it stands to reason that no accident will happen.

But both Zhou Cang and Mi Zhu are cautious people.

Even for short-distance transportation, everything is taken into account.

Because the baggage train was moving extremely slowly,

So Zhou Cang sent out several scouts to look around. If there was any trouble, the scouts could report back immediately.

An hour passed in the blink of an eye,

The convoy has completed one-third of the journey,

The weather was hot, so Mi Zhu was just about to ask everyone to sit down in the shade of a tree, drink some water to escape the heat, and then continue on their way after they had escaped the harsh midday sun.

Suddenly, a scout in front came galloping back and shouted:

"Something bad happened!"

"There is a group of people coming from the direction of Fengcheng ahead,"

"It seems to be Jiang Wei, Wang Ping's army!"

Mi Zhu was shocked when he heard this, and his face suddenly turned pale.

Frowning:

"Strange, how did Jiang Wei and the others know that we went to Tongcheng to borrow food today?"

"You just happened to ambush us here?"

Zhou Cang is quite steady, with a dark face that is calm and calm.

He said in a deep voice:

"It's useless to say this now. Now that the enemy is here, we should think about how to deal with it."

Mi Zhu also calmed down quickly,

He said in a deep voice:

"We are definitely no match for them in a head-on conflict,"

"If General Guan Yu were present, we might be able to defeat many with less,"

"But without General Guan Yu, I'm afraid no one can control Jiang Wei."

Zhou Cang: "..."

"That's what sir said."
