"Lord Commander, this subordinate is willing to make a military pledge.”Jia Xuan bowed.
"Bullshit! You ignorant thing, get out!”Liu Sancheng cursed again.
"Since Commandant Jia is willing to make a military pledge. Why didn't the commander agree? Even if it didn't succeed, it would be harmless to the overall situation.”A general said.
How could Liu Sancheng not know that even if Jia Xuan did not succeed. It would not affect the overall situation. However, he did not want Jia Xuan to die on the battlefield because he was young and impetuous. After all, he was the grandson of the old Duke. He still respected Jia Daishan. He didn't expect the old Duke to have a decent grandson, but he died here.
"I still want to try. If I succeed, I will be able to resolve the crisis of the army. Xuan's personal safety is not important, but the court's important matter is more important. I hope Lord Commander will grant my wish." Jia Xuan bowed again.
Liu Sancheng was furious. He thought to himself, I'm trying to save your life, but you don't know what's good for you. " If that's the case, then go ahead. I hope you can succeed."”
"Yes, this subordinate will do as you say." Jia Xuan turned his head and left the army tent. He thought to himself that whether or not he could be promoted this time would depend on tonight.
The generals in the tent did not take this seriously at all. The success rate of one person burning the rations of an army of 100,000 people was basically zero. They still had to continue discussing future matters and see if there was any way to solve the problem of food shortage.
Jia Xuan returned to the hundred-man team and asked the soldiers to prepare a bucket of kerosene. Then, he fell asleep and rested.
In the middle of the night, Jia Xuan changed into a set of black clothes and carried the bucket of kerosene as he quickly left the city.
He stored the fire oil in a place not far from the city, and then quickly ran toward the Jurchen's camp alone.
Along the way, he carefully avoided the Zhenren's scouts. After arriving at the camp, he found that the Jurchen's guard was very lax. Perhaps they were thinking of the imperial court's soldiers and did not dare to leave the city. Moreover, there were so many scouts outside that they were not worried that someone would sneak into the camp.
With Jia Xuan's current physical fitness and agility, it was impossible for ordinary people to discover him. It was also very easy to find provisions and supplies because the Jurchen had brought a large number of cattle and sheep with her.
But even though he found it, Jia Xuan was in a difficult position. The supplies were easy to deal with, but what about so many cows and sheep? Even if he were to kill them one by one, he would not be able to kill them all until dawn.
That's right! He could poison her. Jia Xuan patted his head. Thinking of this, he quickly left the Jurchen camp and returned to the military town.
When the soldiers guarding the city saw Jia Xuan return, they all looked at him disdainfully. How could he go to his death alone? Didn't he come back dejectedly?
Jia Xuan completely ignored the disdainful gazes of these soldiers and went straight to the military camp to find the military doctor.
"You want poison? The more poisonous it is, the better?" The military doctor looked at Jia Xuan strangely.
After Jia Xuan explained the matter, the military doctor understood that he was going to poison the Jurchen people's cattle and sheep, so he happily gave Jia Xuan the poison.
Under the strange gazes of the soldiers guarding the city, Jia Xuan once again left the city.
This time, Jia Xuan brought the kerosene along as well and arrived at the supply camp very smoothly. After pouring the kerosene on the rations and supplies, they went to the place where the cattle and sheep were kept.
Jia Xuan quickly moved and caught the ten Jurchen guarding the cows and sheep. In the pitch-black night, coupled with Jia Xuan's quick movements, it did not cause any commotion.
He was sprinkling poison on the grass. He rested at the side for nearly two hours. That was why he set the fire unhurriedly.
Because the sky was about to brighten, it was the time when people and horses were tired. At this moment, a fiery light shot into the sky, dyeing the black sky red.
At this time, the Jurchen was busy putting out the fire and looking for spies. How could the fire be extinguished? It was ignited with kerosene. Moreover, there was no water source nearby. How could they put out the fire? They could only watch helplessly as the rations and supplies were burned.
How could the movements of the Zhenren's side escape the eyes of the imperial court?
"Damn it, I didn't expect this kid to be so capable. This time, it's enough to make the Zhenren suffer.”Liu Sancheng said excitedly as he slammed the table.
The generals around him all lowered their heads, thinking that it was not the time to scold others for being arrogant.
The Jurchen general roared angrily. "You bunch of trash! In a camp with so many people, he wanted people to burn the rations and supplies? Then what use do I have for you!"
"Report!" A soldier shouted from outside the tent.
"Leader, our cattle and sheep have been poisoned to death.”
"What?" The leader of the Jurchen slapped the table and stood up. He said angrily," What a cunning southerner.”
The leader had thought that he could still hold on for a while after burning his rations and cattle. He could just ask the Great Khan for help. He did not expect that even the cattle and sheep were poisoned by the southerners. If the cows and sheep died, they had to eat them quickly. If they were not finished, they would go bad over time.
When Jia Xuan returned to the military town, the soldiers guarding the gate all saluted Jia Xuan. This was a sign of respect for the strong. In the army, as long as you had the ability and capability, you would be able to obtain the respect and respect of most people.
Jia Xuan was about to return to the military tent to hand in the order when he suddenly heard," As expected of the grandson of the old Duke, he was indeed brave and outstanding. This time, you have made a great contribution. I will definitely recommend you to the Imperial Court.”Liu Sancheng and his generals were welcoming him at the gate.
Jia Xuan hurriedly took a few steps forward and saluted," How can I trouble the generals to welcome me?”
"You've solved a big problem for us, but we can't welcome you.”Liu Sancheng laughed. The generals smiled and nodded.
"Come, let's talk inside." Finished talking, he pulled Jia Xuan's arm and walked towards the big tent.
When the imperial court learned that 400,000 Jurchen had invaded the border, it was shocked. The imperial court had not fought a major battle for decades.
Emperor Long Xing sat on the dragon throne and looked at the courtiers below." Do you have any solutions?"”
"Long live, now the Jurchen are besieging the city. Most of the Jurchen are cavalry, while our dynasty doesn't have many cavalry. We can't fight in the wild and can only defend the city.”Wang Ziteng said.
"Right now, the border city is lacking in soldiers. There are only 300,000 soldiers. If the Jurchen attacked. He couldn't hold on for long, so he hoped that Wansui would make a decision soon.”First Uncle Niu Jizong said.
"Then tell the Bureau of Military Personnel to prepare rations, and transfer fifty thousand troops from Datong to aid the border cities.”Emperor Long Xing said.
