The 300 Black Armored Army led by Li Cunxiao wouldn't take so long to chase down the unprepared Jiangdong Army.
However, there were two reasons why Li Cunxiao had to do this.
First, the Black Armored Army had been consumed by half. If this continued, the Black Armored Army wouldn't be able to fight anymore.
Thus, they could only kill the enemy as much as possible while preserving their strength.
Second, before the night attack began, Bai Feng suddenly sent a new order.
After burning the provisions, they couldn't retreat. Temporarily avoid one side.
Once the flames were extinguished, they would attack the provisions a second time and drive the Jiangdong Army back to the barracks!
They would burn the provisions once more!
Li Cunxiao didn't understand why Bai Xuan wanted him to burn the provisions a second time but he still did as instructed.
The Jiangdong Army that originally came to put out the fire were like mice being chased by a cat. They kept running away!
It wasn't that there weren't any generals ready to meet the enemy.
Those who met the enemy were trampled into meat paste by the Black Armored Army!
The thousands of Jiangdong Army soldiers threw away their helmets and armour!
They were all driven back to the barracks!
At this time, in the military camp, Cheng Pu had already ordered everyone to gather outside the tent.
They were ready to set off.
Just one second before they set off, someone in the army suddenly shouted.
"General! Behind you! "
"General! Provisions! Provisions! "
In an instant, the army that was ready to set off was in a mess!
A panicked expression appeared on the faces of every Jiangdong soldier.
The provisions of a hundred thousand soldiers had been attacked, and twice at that!
Even if they didn't have a brain, they knew that there wouldn't be any residue left!
There was a saying that before the troops and horses moved, the provisions would move first.
If they didn't even have provisions, who would have the heart to fight?
While the soldiers were panicking, Han Dang arrived in time.
The appearance of the two generals gave the Jiangdong Army some comfort.
"What happened?"
"I don't know. The fire was originally extinguished but now it's burning again!"
As soon as the two of them met, they took the initiative to communicate the new situation.
However, the two of them still didn't know what was happening at the granary.
Seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, Cheng Pu spoke first.
"Should we send some people over first and try to save as much food as possible …"
"It's too late!"
Before Cheng Pu could finish, he was interrupted by Han Dang!
"Let's not talk about the people we just sent over. How much food can they save?"
"Judging from the current situation of the fire, even if we try to save the rations, we will only disperse our forces!"
"Burning the rations a second time means that they didn't plan to destroy the rations of the 100,000 soldiers the first time. It's to get us to send our troops over! "
"They're besieging the enemy's reinforcements!"
After Han Dang finished speaking, his face became terrifyingly gloomy.
Bai Feng only had a thousand men. If they were to split up and attack the granary, they would not use more than five hundred men!
But what was the point? Was it really just to take down a wave of reinforcements?
Or do they just want to destroy these provisions?
Now that all the soldiers from the surrounding four counties were gathered here, an army of 100,000 was not afraid of losing a few thousand soldiers.
As for the rations in the army, although it was important, the Jiangdong Army was fighting on their own territory. Would they be afraid of lacking rations?!
Even if they couldn't gather all the rations in a short period of time, the rations would naturally be sent over after a few days.
Although the impact was huge, it was still far from being a serious injury.
Bai Feng shouldn't have come up with such a useless strategy, right?!
Then what was he planning?
Han Dang's face became uglier and uglier as he paced back and forth.
He couldn't think of a way to deal with it.
At this moment, the flames in the barracks flickered, and a lot of noise could be heard.
The noise spread wider and wider.
The entire Jiangdong Army, which was already in a mess, was now filled with shouting!
"Men! Go and check! What's the situation at the front! "
Not long after, the messenger replied, "Yes.
"General, there are scattered soldiers charging at the formation!"
"There are too many of them, and the formation at the front is in a mess!"
Just after the messenger reported, another messenger hurriedly came forward to report.
"General, there are scattered soldiers charging at the east of the formation!"
"And there are enemies mixed in with the formation!"
Cheng Pu and Han looked at each other, and their hearts were filled with panic!
If the formation was broken, it would be a group of scattered soldiers!
"I understand!"
"This Bai Feng is really calculating!"
"As expected of Cao Cao's most capable person!"
Han Dang seemed to have suddenly realized something and said a few words. Then he ordered his subordinates to send generals to suppress the scattered soldiers!
Not only that, Han Dang also ordered everyone to ignore the harassment in the east.
They followed the orders and surrounded Bai Xuan in front of the army!
Cheng Pu saw Han Dang's actions and didn't stop him.
He just frowned.
He couldn't understand Bai Feng's operation.
The two of them were preparing to lead the army to fight when Cheng Pu finally asked:
"Why?"
"The harassment in the east should be suppressed quickly. Why don't you care?"
Han Dang explained:
"Bai Feng really has deep thoughts. If I hadn't told you to prepare the formation in advance, I'm afraid the two of us would be powerless to reverse the situation!"
Han Dang saw that Cheng Pu still didn't understand and continued:
"Originally, I was wondering why Bai Feng didn't send troops to attack the camp the first time he set fire to the provisions."
"Instead, he attacked when I led the troops out to patrol the surrounding camps."
"What's even stranger is why Bai Feng ordered people to attack the thousands of soldiers I brought out?"
"Wouldn't it be better to have half of the people contain the soldiers I brought out while the other half directly attack the camp?"
Cheng Pu was silent as he calculated the gains and losses in his heart.
It seemed that Bai Xuan's behavior was really strange.
Just the first attack on the provisions was enough to directly intercept the many Jiangdong Army who came to put out the fire.
If that was the case, they would be able to burn all of the rations and fodder.
Tonight's events revealed many things that weren't right.
Han Dang continued:
"After I returned to the camp, I saw the second attack on the provisions and felt uneasy!"
"I originally intended to send out the entire army and kill Bai Xuan's army in the night!"
"As long as Bai Xuan's soldiers were reduced to 100 people, it would be the greatest achievement of the 100,000 soldiers!"
"It would be worth sacrificing more!"
"There are only 100 people. Even if Bai Xuan has great ability, what use is there if he has no soldiers in his hands?"
"But …"
Han Dang took a deep breath and couldn't help showing fear in his eyes.
