Regent, the princess you found is a treasure
Chapter 148 The Enemy Desires to Burn Qingdu City
When General Duan thought about this, he immediately called the guards and asked them to pass the message to Princess Yong'an.
At this moment, Princess Yong'an was also in the tent, soaking in cold water to relieve the unbearable itching all over her body. After hearing the message from General Duan's guards, the maid waiting at the door hurried into the tent to report to Princess Yong'an.
Yongan suddenly realized when he heard this: That's right! Xuan Moyin and Su Luoxue could play dirty tricks on them, so why can't she? Just now, she was really overwhelmed by anger and was at a loss for a moment. However, how should she act?
Yong'an lay quietly in the water, thinking hard about the solution. If this city is attacked by ordinary means, it will definitely be difficult to conquer, after all, Xuan Moyin and Su Luoxue do not play by the rules at all.
Suddenly, Princess Yong'an had an idea. A flash of inspiration flashed through her mind - use fire! Set Qingdu City on fire. I don't believe that these two people can't be forced out! When that happens, they can be captured in one fell swoop.
Thinking of this, Princess Yong'an immediately told her plan to her maid and asked her to convey it to General Duan.
General Duan also received reports from his subordinates: the number of soldiers infected with the itch poison, including those with serious conditions and those with mild symptoms, totaled 70,000 to 80,000! In addition, the military doctor came to report that they could not remove the poison and could only wait for the toxicity to gradually weaken on its own. It would take about two to three days to return to normal.
When General Duan received the report from the guards about the plan Princess Yong'an had mentioned, he agreed without hesitation. The Yuan army had just won a victory today, and it must be the most relaxed and least vigilant at this moment, so tonight was undoubtedly the best time to take action.
Thinking of this, General Duan made a prompt decision and summoned a confidant. He told him the whole plan in detail, and then ordered him to select a hundred soldiers who were good at shooting and start the action when it got darker at night.
However, General Duan did not know that Xuan Moyin and others had already predicted his plan and had sent people to set up an ambush, waiting for his men to fall into the trap.
When the night fell and everything was quiet, General Duan's trusted subordinate quietly set out with more than a hundred battle-hardened and accurate soldiers.
They were dressed in night clothes as black as ink, as if blending into the endless darkness, approaching Qingdu City silently.
These people secretly rejoiced in their hearts, thinking that their actions tonight were extremely covert and no one could detect them.
When they arrived about two miles away from the city wall, they stopped cautiously.
Judging from the range of the rocket in his hand, this distance is just right, which can ensure the power of the attack without exposing himself too early.
The leader of the Beiliang soldiers looked around vigilantly, his eyes as sharp as a hawk, not missing any unusual signs.
After careful observation, he did not find anything unusual. It seemed that, as the general said, after the Yuan army won a great victory today, they would definitely celebrate and drink in the city.
Right now is the perfect opportunity to surprise them and give them an amazing gift.
Thinking of this, the little leader's mouth corners slightly raised, and a cunning look flashed in his eyes.
He whispered orders, asking everyone to prepare rockets and kerosene, and wait for his order to turn the city into a sea of fire.
Just when they were ready and had not yet started to act, suddenly, a group of people in black rushed out from all directions like ghosts. These people were extraordinary and swift, and in the blink of an eye, they subdued the men sent by General Duan one by one.
In fact, when these allied forces had just arrived, General Song and others had already paid close attention to their movements. As the prince expected, these people attempted to set fire to Qingdu City. If they had not been prepared in advance, the consequences would have been disastrous.
At the same time, General Duan and Princess Yong'an, who were still soaking in cold water in the military camp, were anxiously waiting for good news from the spies ahead. However, as time passed, it was almost midnight, but there was no movement at all.
General Duan and Princess Yong'an became increasingly uneasy, so they sent their guards and maids to get information. However, what they finally got was the news that Qingdu City was not on fire, and not even a spark was seen. What's worse, those who were sent to set the fire also lost contact, and it seemed that this plan was likely to fail.
Yongan raised her fist angrily and smashed it into the water, splashing water. "What a bunch of useless idiots! They can't even do such a simple thing!" She cursed in her heart.
At this moment, she had been soaking in the freezing water for nearly ten hours. Her body had turned pale and her skin was full of wrinkles. What was worse was that it was early spring and the chill was overwhelming. Staying in the cold water for a long time made her feel extremely cold. However, once she left the cold water, her body would itch unbearably, as if millions of ants were gnawing at her. And those so-called military doctors were helpless!
Thinking of this, Yongan's anger grew stronger. No one around her was truly reliable. Whether it was detoxification or arson, they were powerless. They were simply a bunch of good-for-nothings! It seemed that in order to solve the problem, she had to rely on herself in the end.
At the same time, General Duan was also very surprised at the failure of the plan. He really couldn't understand how the Yuan army could be so alert that they could see through such a plot? Now, he had no other choice but to wait for two days until the poison in his body was eliminated and then discuss the countermeasures again.
However, Su Luoxue did not give them another chance to fight back. The next night, she sneaked into the enemy camp with Xuan Moyin and An Yi.
The three men set fire to the enemy camp in four directions. Suddenly, flames shot up into the sky. The soldiers in the tents screamed in pain from the fire and all ran out.
Xuan Moyin, Su Luoxue, and An Yi had already turned around and returned to Qingdu City. Su Luoxue looked at the flames rising from the coalition camp in the distance and sneered, "You want to burn Qingdu City, so I will let you taste the feeling of being burned."
General Duan and Princess Yong'an also heard the noise outside the tent. They were not itchy anymore today. They were discussing with their men in the tent how to attack Qingdu City next when they heard something was wrong outside. A guard hurriedly came to report: "General, Princess, it's bad, there's a fire!"
Upon hearing that there was a fire, the first thing General Duan thought of was that it must have been done by Xuan Moyin and Su Luoxue. However, there was no time to think about these things now. He immediately gave orders to put out the fire quickly.
