Chapter 1106 I Am Pan Feng, Come and Die!
"As for the apparent fire, it may be to confuse us!" Han Fu continued.
In fact, Han Fu's words are not without reason. Zhang Jiao's Taiping Dao is weird and unpredictable. It is not impossible to make some fire dragon sacrifices to the sky.
However, Lu Zhi, who had a fight with Dian Wei, would not think that Dian Wei was the kind of person who would rely on unorthodox methods to win!
Dian Wei is a fierce general on the battlefield!
"Your Excellency, you are indeed wise!" Several people next to him flattered and shouted.
Lu Zhi looked at these sons of high-ranking officials from prominent families who came to gild their reputations and sighed softly. It seems that these people really can't be overestimated.
This group of people did not follow him north at the beginning, but joined in the middle.
"Shi Ji, what do you think?" Lu Zhi looked at a tall, handsome, gentle and elegant man in brocade clothes and asked softly.
"Ji thinks that there may be a real fire in the city!" The man in brocade clothes bowed to Lu Zhi and said softly.
Han Fu saw that it was the son of the Yuan family who spoke, and although there was impatience on his face, he did not get angry. Because he is a disciple of the Yuan family.
"Hehe... Brother Yuan Ji, why are you so sure?" A burly general asked on the right side of Lu Zhi, next to Zong Yuanbang.
This general's name is Pan Feng!
As for Yuan Ji mentioned by Pan Feng, his courtesy name is Shiji, and he is from Ruyang County, Runan County. He is the eldest son of Yuan Feng and the elder brother of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu!
In history, because Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu led the Guandong princes to launch a crusade against Dong Zhuo, more than 20 members of the Runan Yuan family who were still living in Luoyang, such as Yuan Wei, were implicated and killed by Dong Zhuo.
"Just now, I checked with Zong Zhonglang Jiang and found that the fire that shot up into the sky suddenly disappeared after a moment. The fire came and went in a hurry, so it should have been controlled after the fire broke out."
"Of course, it may be as Han Yushi guessed, the Yellow Turban Army was offering sacrifices, but it was not controlled well, so the fire broke out!" Yuan Ji said softly.
Han Fu's face relaxed when he heard this. Yuan Ji still stood on his side.
The others heard this and remained silent.
Seeing this, Lu Zhi sighed again in his heart. These guys, although they have some wisdom, they all use it in politics!
That burly general is Han Fu's general, so he must be on Han Fu's side. Yuan Ji, a descendant of the Yuan family, also has a relationship with his student Han Fu, and it is deeply rooted!
Through these few words, Lu Zhi felt that a small dragon court had appeared.
However, he is not Liu Hong, he is the god general Lu Zhi! The Northern General with a heavy army!
Lu Zhi did not ask anyone else. After looking around, he said in a deep voice: "The guards on the city wall were only in a panic for a moment, but they did not leave their posts without permission. It can be seen that they did not know about the fire in advance. After that, the guards were still on high alert. The matter in the city should be resolved in a very short time. We cannot take advantage of this opportunity to charge, so we will continue to rest and wait for the rear army to come to support."
"However, the patrol soldiers will be increased by 30% to prevent the enemy from attacking late at night."
"Others, go to rest!" Lu Zhi waved his hand.
Although Lu Zhi was not a stubborn person, he was a one-man show. Although he asked other generals, it was just for reference. If there was no good opinion, it would basically not be adopted.
As a veteran general on the battlefield, he would not rely on these people for military secrets.
The Han camp was in chaos for a while, and then it became quiet.
...
...
Early morning, in Fanyang City.
"General Dian, after the fire was under control, we counted the eighth warehouse, and most of the supplies... were gone... Only a little food and grass were left..." A Yellow Turban elder hesitated.
"Gone again?!" Dian Wei heard this, his tiger eyes glared, and his whole breath exploded. Everyone couldn't help but straighten their bodies and their faces were stern.
Obviously, the commander Dian Wei was in a stage of rage at this moment!
The atmosphere in the pavilion was very depressing at this moment. Because according to the reports of the elders, most of the supplies in the eight warehouses were gone!
Yes! Not burned, but gone!!
Can Xuan-level armor be burned? Can Xuan stone with inscriptions be burned? Can the water-proof wood be burned?
If the food and grass were gone, it might have been burned, but now there is still a lot of food left in the eight warehouses!
"Could it be... that the people below embezzled all the military funds for their own benefit?!" At this time, Guo Tu questioned.
For something like this to happen, there must be a reason, or a culprit or a scapegoat!
"Hmph! Impossible!" Dian Wei shouted in a serious tone.
The generals in charge of the materials in the warehouse were all his subordinates, all selected by him personally, and they were very loyal and would not embezzle.
Guo Tu nodded depressedly after hearing this. This was the first time Dian Wei had said this to him.
"Yu Du, did you find anything over there?" Dian Wei asked.
"The arsonists were found, but there was nothing to gain. Those people were ordinary civilians, who were bribed by some mysterious people and instructed to set the fire. Moreover, before the fire, a lot of flammable objects and some talismans had been placed in the warehouse to accelerate the spread of the fire." Yu Du reported.
"Hmph! In other words, the real arsonist is still in the city?" Dian Wei narrowed his eyes, and a murderous look appeared on his face.
It was a good war of attrition, but because of insufficient materials, he could not continue to consume officers and soldiers, which really made him angry!
Continue to consume? Or retreat?
At this time, Dian Wei only had these two choices!
"Military Advisor Guo Tu, what should we do now?" After pondering for a while, Dian Wei still asked Guo Tu in a low voice.
After all, Guo Tu is good at strategizing.
Seeing Dian Wei asking humbly, Guo Tu's face showed a hint of pride. However, as a military advisor, he still had to make plans. He said in a serious tone: "According to the inventory, the remaining supplies can still support our million Taiping Daoists for fifteen days. However, the supplies for defending the city are in short supply. Under Lu Zhi's strange mantra domain, the next defense of the city may not be in danger of falling, but the casualties may not be less than the last time."
"Even if General Dian Wei uses the divine domain, the situation may be a little sluggish!"
"Moreover, according to my prediction, Lu Zhi may not launch another siege. He will wait for reinforcements!" Guo Tu analyzed.
Guo Tu's analysis made a lot of sense, and everyone nodded.
Part of it was looted by the Great Wilderness Territory, and a lot of it was burned, but it could still support millions of Taiping Daoists for fifteen days. It can be seen how amazing the amount of food and grass in the warehouse is.
Millions of Taoists are not all soldiers, otherwise Dian Wei might have created the soul of the military way!
Dian Wei spent a lot of effort on the layout of Fanyang City. Many of the Yellow Turban Army's logistics Taoists were expert masons, blacksmiths, and doctors. He specially selected them for the battle of Fanyang City, otherwise he would not be so angry!
This is the first level of resistance and consumption of the elite of Longting!
"Dongdong!!!!" At this time, a rumble came. These sounds were not from the city wall, but from outside the city!
Everyone looked at Guo Tu at the same time.
He said that the enemy would not attack the city the moment before, but the next moment, how could the drum sound!
Guo Tu's face also showed a touch of embarrassment at this moment, social death!
"The Yellow Turban rebel on the city wall, I am Pan Feng, come to die quickly!"
At this time, another voice came. The voice was extremely rough and full of energy, resounding throughout the city wall.
Pan Feng? Who is it?
