Chapter 1011 Burning the Cotton Camp!
"At that time, we can also take this opportunity to make a fortune!"
"Ha ha."
Hearing what they said, the soldiers also looked fiery.
Their attacks on those savages became lighter, for fear that they would be beaten too hard and scare them away.
At that time, they will not be able to find these people.
"General! When do we do it?"
However, what they didn't notice was that behind them, Zhen Jiang led 100 people and quietly wiped out the guards in front of the iron barrel formation.
Then he crawled in and approached those caravans quietly.
"It's now!"
"rush!"
Zhen Jiang made people hide here all the time, and when those people had completely relaxed their vigilance, Zhen Jiang immediately gave an order to let everyone move forward quickly.
Their actions also caught the attention of the lieutenant in an instant.
"Not good! Oops, they really have a backhand!"
"Quick! Stop them!"
"Archers, rush over and destroy them!"
Standing at the highest position, the deputy general quickly spotted Zhen Jiang and the others. However, judging by their number, there were only about a hundred of them. I don't know what they want to do?
Could it be that they want to snatch the treasures of those merchants?
If that's the case, it just happens to be doing them a huge favor.
The treasures of those merchants, as their guards, of course cannot be robbed.
However, if someone else snatched it and they picked it up, there is no reason to return it.
"Yes, General!!"
Those archers immediately separated 200 people and rushed towards Zhen Jiang's position.
However, the distance is too far, and it cannot be rushed over in a short time.
In addition, the places in the middle are the residences of those merchants, blocking their sight.
Except for the lieutenant standing on a high place who could see it, everyone else could only move in a general direction, running in the direction of the messenger's finger.
"No! They, they want to burn cotton!"
"Quick! Send another 200 people over there, we must stop them!"
"Everyone is ready to fight the fire, and the cotton must not be nodded!"
Just when the lieutenant felt that the victory was in his hands,
Suddenly, the deputy general found that those people were igniting the rockets, and they were all carrying flammable materials.
It can be seen that they have already made enough preparations.
"Yes! General!!"
However, no matter how fast they are, they are not as fast as Zhen Jiang's!
"Rocket launching!"
"quick!"
"Shoot all the arrows and retreat quickly!"
Zhen Jiang gave the final attack order.
"Yes, General Zhen!"
Those soldiers were very strong in execution. They ignited the rockets in their hands one after another, and then poured towards the tents of the merchants.
They had observed before and found that the tents with cotton were covered more tightly.
Because the climate of the grassland changes greatly, it often rains at night. I am afraid that it will get wet and moldy, which will affect the quality of cotton. After all, this is a very expensive item.
"boom!!"
Bursts of fire began to burn blazingly.
Those tents were also quickly ignited, coupled with the wind to help the fire, the grassland was already very windy at night, and soon, those tents burned extremely vigorously as if they had been ignited by gasoline.
"Hurry up and put out the fire!"
"What are you doing, hurry up and splash water!"
Seeing this scene, the deputy general showed a desperate roar on his face.
He never expected that this matter would reach such an uncontrollable level.
"Go back to the general, the water is all used up!"
"This is a grassland, and there is a shortage of water in the first place, and all the water we use has been poured out!"
"But such a big fire is like a drop in the bucket, and it can't extinguish the raging flames at all!"
With a look of fear on his face, the captain quickly explained.
"Trash, trash that is on horseback!"
"Quick! Catch those who set fire, and don't let them get away!"
"Otherwise you and I will die!"
He pointed in the direction where Zhen Jiang and the others were running away, and shouted loudly.
"General, the fire is too big, we...we can't rush through it at all!"
"Those merchants were buried in the flames, I'm afraid they won't be able to explain to General Wei!"
The lieutenant replied in fear.
"asshole!"
"Then why are you still standing there, hurry up and rescue those businessmen!"
"We can't let them all die!"
"Otherwise, Ben will throw you all in and burn them one by one!"
The lieutenant growled loudly.
At this moment, he is not as energetic as before.
It's like a bereaved dog in collapse, barking constantly there.
"Yes!"
"Hurry up and save people!"
"If they die, we'll all be beheaded!"
Hearing the order, the soldiers who were hesitant to move forward also gritted their teeth and ran towards the wailing merchants.
They want to rescue those merchants.
"Quick, save me! I have money, as long as you save me, I will give you a lot of silver!"
"Whoever comes to save the old man, I will give you 1000 taels!"
"Come on."
At the critical moment, those merchants also took advantage of their own advantages and used the method of spending money to let the soldiers give priority to saving them.
They are all afraid of death. How can they die here after earning so much money without having time to spend it?
"Quick, it's worth 1000 taels!"
"It's worth 2000 taels!"
"It's worth 5000 taels there, let's save the 5000 taels first!"
"."
With silver as a driving force, those soldiers became more brave.
They also didn't expect that this fire would make them rich overnight.
"General, do you want to go in and kill their vigor?"
"Let them scold us hard and look down on us just now?"
Outside, the [-] soldiers led by the deputy general were directly thrown here. Those people had no intention of fighting these people anymore, which made them feel extremely angry.
"No, retreat immediately!"
"Follow General Zhen's order and absolutely don't stay too long!"
"Otherwise, when Wei Yan and the others come back, we will be doomed!"
Although he was very moved by this proposal.
However, the deputy general thought about Zhen Jiang's order and immediately shook his head.
He was taught a lesson by Zhen Jiang just now, if he doesn't learn the lesson again, Zhen Jiang will be very disappointed.
"Yes, General!"
"Quickly withdraw!!"
Following the order of the lieutenant general, the eight hundred soldiers immediately rode their horses and ran towards the depths of the grassland, and disappeared from their sight in a short while.
And the soldiers who were making money and splitting the money did not notice their departure at all.
Even if they have noticed, no one will dare to chase them.
"Well, what's going on here?"
"Why is there such a fire?"
And not long after these people evacuated, Wei Yan's troops also arrived late. Faced with this situation, Wei Yan's eyes flickered with murderous intent.
