"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 871
The night in the rebel base camp can be said to be extremely lively, not only the general storehouse outside the city where food, fodder and military salaries are stored is in flames, but the provincial capital city is also full of fire.
"My lord, the city is also on fire."
The rebels stationed in the suburbs, Du Jian, the director of the Qinghe Army's Military Intelligence Department, was also stunned when he heard the report.
This time, he deliberately released false news through the intelligence team that surrendered to the enemy, saying that he would assassinate Longtian.
Then he sent someone to set fire to the place where the rebels stored food, grass and military pay, and severely damaged them.
But what he didn't expect was that when they set fire to the rebels' food and fodder outside the city, the city also burned.
"Did our people do it?"
Du Jian couldn't help asking.
"Probably not."
"Damn, are you trying to frame us?"
After Du Jian heard the report from his brothers, he couldn't help laughing and cursing.
Those other forces hidden in Pingyang Province will really take the opportunity to make trouble.
"Although they are framing us, they can also increase our influence." A brother said with a smile.
After all, they threatened with great fanfare to avenge the attack on Yunxi Restaurant, so they came.
Now other forces are also taking advantage of the chaos to make troubles. No matter what it is, this account will be counted on the Qinghe army.
In the future, if those secret enemies want to deal with the Qinghe army, they will probably have to weigh it up to see if they can withstand the anger of the Qinghe army.
Du Jian, the director of the Military Intelligence Department, went deep into the tiger's den just to save the Qinghe Army's face.
He chose to burn the food and fodder of the rebel army, which also hit the weakness of the rebel army. After all, they have a large number of soldiers, and food and fodder are the most important thing.
It would not be too difficult to kill a few of their important figures, but the influence is too small.
Because people are replaceable, even if important figures in the rebel army are killed, they will soon replace them with new ones.
But it is different if the food, fodder and luggage are burned. With so much food and fodder burned, it will be difficult for them to recover.
And now that the rebels are facing the pressure of fighting on two fronts, if there is any problem with the logistics, it will really make things worse.
This is also why Du Jian chose to attack the rebels' supplies instead of beheading their important figures.
But what Du Jian didn't know was that although they didn't do it, someone had already done it for them.
"Now that there is such a big commotion, that Longtian will definitely be furious." Du Jian said with a smile.
"Pass down the order, and Qichen will leave this place of right and wrong early tomorrow morning."
It is conceivable that with so many major events happening in the rebel base camp, the rebels will definitely not let it go.
Now Du Jian's mission has been successfully completed, so it is meaningless for them to stay here any longer, so they decided to evacuate.
The fire in the general warehouse on the outskirts of the capital of Pingyang Province continued until dawn and did not go out, although the people in the city were dispatched.
However, they lacked effective fire extinguishing tools. Facing the flammable grain and fodder, they could not get close by relying on it. They could only watch the grain depots burn to ashes.
As for Du Jian and the others, they were escorting soldiers from the eighth regiment of the rebel army, and Qichen left this place of right and wrong early the next morning.
The fire in the general warehouse is still going on. After all, there is too much food and supplies here, and it will not be burned out in a while. The rescuers are all smoked and black, and they look extremely embarrassed.
The fire started in the second half of the night and lasted until the morning of the third day before it was completely extinguished.
And the large amount of food, fodder and luggage stored by the rebels in the general warehouse was also burned to nothing.
Except for less than 20% of the things that were rescued temporarily, the others were all burned to ashes.
"asshole!"
"I am at odds with the bandit army!"
The emperor Long Tian also arrived at the scorched scene in person, and when he saw the location of the general warehouse that had been burned to the ground, his face was also distorted with anger.
What made Long Tian even more angry was that the mansions of their chief of staff, the Governor of Pingyang Province and other civil servants were also bloodbathed, and it can be said that the losses were quite heavy.
Back then, Long Tian ordered the shadow guards to go to the Qinghe army's territory to do things,It also wanted to destroy the rebel alliance.
But what Long Tian never expected was that the Qinghe army's revenge came so violently.
Seeing the ashes of the food and fodder, Long Tian's heart was bleeding. This is the food and fodder they worked so hard to raise, enough to supply a million troops for a year.
But now he was actually burned by a fire, how could this keep him from getting angry.
Now these food, fodder and supplies have been burned. Although they still have two other general warehouses, it is also a huge blow to them.
The rebel general who was in charge of guarding the general treasury was also ashamed at the moment. He thought it was a good job.
Long Tian entrusted him with such an important position, which was a great respect for him. As long as he guarded this place well, he would be able to achieve great success just around the corner.
But what he never expected was that this seemingly fat and vacant position made him fall into a deep hole.
"Cut it off, destroy the Nine Clans!"
Seeing the guard general kneeling there, Long Tian, ??who was burning with anger, showed no mercy at all, and directly ordered the extermination of the nine clans.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
After hearing Long Tian's words, the guarding general was so frightened that he kowtowed and begged for mercy.
But Long Tian was in a fit of anger, so naturally he would not forgive him, and those high-ranking officials and generals around him did not dare to touch Long Tian's misfortune, they all kept silent and did not dare to intercede.
"The shadow guards are also responsible for this matter. They did not investigate the whereabouts of the bandit spies in a timely manner, causing irreparable losses. I suggest that His Majesty punish them severely."
At this time, a minister who was not used to the style of the shadow guard also stood up and wanted to use this matter to attack the shadow guard.
"The Chief of Staff, the Governor of Pingyang Province and others were killed. The Shadow Guard did not play its due role and should be abolished."
"If there were no shadow guards who took the initiative to provoke the bandits, we would not have encountered retaliation. All of this was caused by the shadow guards."
Those ministers and generals were afraid of the shadow guards walking in the dark, but at the same time they couldn't understand their arrogant style of doing things.
At this moment, they also opened their mouths one after another, pointing the finger at the Shadow Guard, which immediately made the Shadow Guard the target of public criticism.
Although Long Tian also knew that the Shadow Guard was not to blame for this matter, but at this time, if he were to protect the Shadow Guard, everyone would be alienated from him.
Although he beheaded a general as a scapegoat, it was far from enough, so after he pondered for a moment, he turned his attention to the commander of the shadow guard.
The Commander of the Shadow Guard thought he was a celebrity around Long Tian, ??so he acted recklessly on weekdays.
And this time, he never thought that it would involve him at all. When he saw the dragon head looking at him, his heart skipped a beat, realizing something was wrong.
"The Commander of the Shadow Guard has neglected his dutiesremoved from his post, Ling Chi¡ª"
Long Tian now needs the support of the ministers of these aristocratic families, and it is difficult to disobey the will of all, so he can only take the command of the shadow guards and keep the shadow guards at the same time.
"Your Majesty, I am wronged."
After hearing Long Tian's words, the Commander of the Shadow Guard also changed his face wildly, and hurriedly explained and begged for forgiveness.
However, everyone pushed the wall down, and now that such a big incident happened, he, the commander of the shadow guard, could hardly escape the blame.
Long Tian could only abandon him as the commander of the shadow guard, in order to appease everyone's dissatisfaction with the shadow guard, and at the same time ensure that people's hearts would not disperse. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
