Chapter 225: Burning the Handan Granary
"You stay there first, and I'll have people try the grain and bring it in." The grain supervisor pointed to the small village outside the granary and motioned for Gan Ning to stay there first.
"Okay, okay, hurry up and find a few cooks, our brothers are dying of hunger, bring me a few bowls when they are cooked." Gan Ning didn't care about transporting the grain and grass to Xiaozhai, and his soldiers also coaxed.
"Soon, soon, soon." The grain superintendent said with a smile, and the people who won the battle in front of him were all relaxed, so he didn't have any dissatisfaction with Gan Ning's coaxing, as long as he didn't violate the military regulations, the grain superintendent wouldn't mind.
Soon with Gan Ning escorted over the new grain, dried meat made zuò lunch was ready, Gan Ning and his subordinates each took several large bowls and found a place to squat there to start eating, and a few soldiers who tried the grain saw Gan Ning and others eating fragrant and relieved to eat, three hours later, Gan Ning, who had eaten enough, was carried into the Handan granary.
In the afternoon, Gan Ning was lying in his camp with a chirp, Yuan Shaobing's classification was very miscellaneous, and his grain transportation team was from Bohai, so everyone didn't know anyone.
"Cabbage, what about the tung oil I asked you to find in other camps?" Gan Ning hummed and chirped as if he was dead.
"Boss, I just slipped around, you don't know, this Handan granary is said to be a granary is actually a logistics base, not only hoarding a large amount of grain, but also war materials, horses and something." Kale said with a twinkle in her eyes, especially when it comes to horses, which can scare people.
"What are you talking this nonsense for?" Gan Ning slapped his palm on the other party's head and said very unhappily, "I asked if you have tung oil?" ”
"Yes. Boss, I mean, it's not good for us to burn the grain, you see there are horses hoarded here. There are healthy cattle pulling carts here, and Jizhou is really rich, with more than 1,000 horses and healthy cattle. Kale continued.
"Who said that we only want to burn food, Uncle Ben is now collecting intelligence, did you ask about the situation of Gongsun Zhan?" Gan Ning asked unceremoniously.
"It's simple, when I was eating before, I pulled a group of people to pour wine. After the overturning they said everything, Gongsun Chan went north, and then a fierce general seriously injured Yan Liang near Zhangshui. Kale said with a hippie smile. As a loyal general prepared by his father when Gan Ning left home, Kale can be regarded as one of the best.
"It seems that Ziyi is not confused, okay, since Ziyi is fine. We'll just continue to crouch here. Let's see when it's our turn to defend the camp, isn't it okay for the victorious Jizhou not to let the uncle take advantage of it? Gan Ning said with a cheap smile.
On the third day of Gan Ning's arrival at the Handan camp, the grain supervisor arranged for Gan Ning to guard the camp at night, and Gan Ning also had a few words with the grain supervisor, and then went to prepare tung oil and torches with an angry face.
"Dude, give me a thousand ready-made torches." Gan Ning said unhappily to a military cao who counted the inventory in the rear camp.
"Ready-made, no." Jun Cao took the jerky handed over by Gan Ning and said. "Seeing that there are no trees outside, just cut them down. Just come and wrap the cloth soaked in tung oil, and now there are no enemies, you can just do it. Jun Cao pointed to the camp outside and said nearly twenty miles away.
"Brother, there is a lack of someone, can't you play?" Just then Kale yelled outside.
"Okay, right away." Jun Cao laughed and said, he has won a lot recently, but the cabbage is not convinced every day, and he is going to fight again, so he naturally won't let it go, "Brother, take what you want here, as long as it's not too excessive, buddy shouldn't see it, but remember to help my brother look at the door, I'm going to kill today!" ”
Jun Cao just slipped away, and the entire treasury was lost to Gan Ning, there was no way that Gan Ning had become familiar with the necessary few people in the past few days, saying that Gan Ning, a daring guy, was in the enemy camp, and there was no pressure on the enemy side to fight without changing his color.
Soon after Jun Cao left, Gan Ning led people to start loading cylinders of tung oil into the car, as for the grain supervisor, it is estimated that he is still gambling with the treasury Jun Cao and cabbage, although he has heard Chen Xi say it a few times, but Gan Ning has spelled out the rules, as for whether it is right or not, what does it matter, as long as it can hook people.
"Dude, what are you doing here?" The sergeant who was guarding the camp asked curiously, looking at Gan Ning with his subordinates carrying basins of water.
"It's not easy to catch fire with a little water." Gan Ning replied casually.
"Dude, you're so witty!" After the handover of the sergeant guarding the camp, he gave Gan Ning a thumbs up, in this late autumn period, the weather is dry and dry, and it makes sense to sprinkle some water, and the sergeant feels that next time it will be his turn to do the same.
After handing over the token of the garrison, the previous sergeant left calmly, and Gan Ning splashed the water in the basin at will, and then loaded it with tung oil mixed with wine and began to pour it everywhere, anyway, after Gan Ning's research, tung oil can also burn on water, and mixed with some wine to cover all the smell.
More than a dozen cylinders of tung oil went down, and the entire camp should have taken care of all the places, and Gan Ning was still not enough, so he moved more than a dozen cylinders, and after the dozen cylinders were scattered, there was a faint smell of wine in the whole camp, but fortunately, there are not many people who wake up now, and occasionally a few come out to scold, and the patrol camp secretly drinks without themselves......
"How's the cabbage going?" Gan Ning saw the cabbage trotting all the way over, so he asked.
"It's okay, I killed both of those guys." Kale said something terrifying with a smile on her face.
"Oh, let's go, go to the back camp and prepare to ride a horse, you are either from my Gan family, or you are the leader of the water thieves everywhere, don't tell me that you don't know how to ride a horse." Gan Ning casually threw the torch, and the others also threw the torch towards the camp, and soon there were raging flames in all directions.
"I ......" Gan Ning almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, he didn't do it on purpose, he just did it, but when his subordinates saw that he had skimmed, the others followed suit, and then the big camp fire started, and other places were ordered to throw the torches in.
"Hurry to the back camp, receive the horses, and then take a boat to the Zhanghe River to send Gongsun Bogui back to the camp." As soon as Kale saw Gan Ning's expression, she knew what was going on, and then opened her mouth to give orders to cover up the embarrassment for Gan Ning.
That night, the Handan granary caught fire, which could be seen dozens of miles away, and the fire was not extinguished all night, and finally the entire camp was burned to the ground, and almost no one escaped.
Gan Ning rode all the way back, the information collected recently in the Handan granary made Gan Ning completely extinguish the so-called three hundred versus tens of thousands of ideas, he already knew how Gongsun Chan was defeated, although there were reasons for the mistake, but more of the enemy was too strong, and the first dead soldier who had overturned Wan Baima Yicong was now in Yuan Shao's camp, and there was only one way to die for three hundred people!
It was precisely because he didn't have that idea that Gan Ning stayed in the Handan granary for a few days, just to think about how to make up for it, Yuan Shao's idea couldn't be beaten, but other ideas could be beaten! For example, the fire burned down the Handan granary and cut off Yuan Shao's supply of grain and grass, which is also a great achievement! (To be continued......)
