Chapter 352 Determination of the Central Plains Wangjing Tower Fire (Part [-])
In the middle of the night, everyone outside the Wangjing Tower was asleep except for the defenders who were in charge of patrolling the surrounding area, lest Sun Canjun's spies would make trouble.At this time, a person came out from a big tent, that person was wearing blue armor, but under the reflection of the firelight next to the tent, it could be seen that this person was a heroic young man.This person is Ding Feng and Ding Chengyuan, the guards in charge of guarding the Wangjing Tower.

He is from Anfeng, Lujiang, Yangzhou. He was originally a young general under Pan Zhang's command. He participated in battles many times.He is cautious, courageous and resourceful.He was discovered by Pang Tong during a mission and entrusted with a heavy responsibility.He became a general at a young age, and he has thousands of elite soldiers under his command, which are highly valued.This time, Sun Ce gave him [-] soldiers and horses even more out of style, and let him look at the strategic materials upstairs.

Ding Feng is indeed a general. As soon as he got the order, he sent soldiers to drive all the tourists out of the Wangjinglou, and then sent soldiers to search the Wangjinglou layer by layer, even if it was a mouse hole. , Only after it was confirmed that there was no one in the watchtower, did the military supplies be deposited.

Afterwards, they inspected carefully again before ordering the closure of the Observatory.Then, Ding Feng asked the soldiers to surround the Wangjing Tower to form a square formation and camp on the spot.And the Wangjing Tower is in the middle of a square formation.That is to say, those who want to get close to the Wangjing Tower must pass through the camp of ten thousand people.

All of these were checked by Ding Feng himself, without any slack, it would be whimsical to enter the Wangjing Tower without being discovered.

So Ding Feng was very relieved about the safety of the tower.

Don't worry, don't worry, Ding Feng is not ambiguous at all.Due to his duties, he has to patrol the neighborhood every night to see if there is anything wrong.Serious and responsible, never neglect.This is also one of the reasons why Pang Tong let Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and other veteran generals not use it, and asked Ding Feng to take on this important task.

He walked slowly in the barracks, and the inspecting sergeants bowed and saluted when they saw her. Ding Feng returned the salutes one by one, but his mind was flying to nowhere. He looked around intently, hoping to find some flaws that had not been discovered yet.But all he could feel was the darkness and silence of the night,
Ding Feng turned around and walked back to the camp.

At this moment, all the places in the city suddenly became chaotic, and there were bursts of smoke around Moling City.

"Fire...fire..."

"Firefighting...firefighting..."

Wait for the messy voices to come in an endless stream.

Ding Feng looked serious, and loudly ordered all the soldiers to stand up for martial law. He didn't intend to fight the fire, because it was not his responsibility. His task was to guard Haowangjing Tower every step of the way.What's more, he had a premonition that this time the fire was aimed at the observation tower behind him, and the real purpose of the other party was to burn the supplies.The reason why the fire was burning elsewhere was probably because of the opponent's plan to "tune the tiger away from the mountain", intending to trick him into leaving, so that he could sneak into the Wangjing Tower and set fire to it.

He constantly commanded the soldiers to close all the key points, and the sharp arrows of the archers were all on the string, as long as someone approached and refused to listen.No matter who it is, as long as there is suspicion, it will become a dead soul under the arrow.

Just when Ding Feng arranged the defense properly.Suddenly, the central place burst into flames, and in an instant, the Observation Tower behind it was already full of flames.

Ding Feng was stunned, how could it be possible, how could the other party have the opportunity to sneak into the Wangjing Tower?

Ding Feng, who came back to his senses, shouted heart-piercingly: "What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and fetch water."

Ding Fengxiang rushed to the Wangjing Tower like crazy, took the stairs to the only entrance of the Wangjing Tower, pushed the door and rushed in.

With a loud "bang tom", Ding Feng's head slammed into the huge door of the observation tower, and the force of the rebound sent him flying, and he fell hard to the ground.

"Oh my God! What's going on here? Could it be that the other party is a ghost." Ding Feng wailed loudly, regardless of the blood streaming down his forehead.

It turned out that the Wangjing Tower had already been blocked and locked.The locksmith has been put under house arrest, so there are only two keys in this world that can open the gate of the Wangjinglou.One in Sun Ce's hand and one in his hand.

Three hours ago, he personally searched the entire Observation Tower, and then closed and locked the Observation Tower himself.

Originally, he didn't know that the other party had entered the tower, but now he felt even more strange.

Because he found that the lock is not broken.

Since Suo is not broken, how did the other party get into the Wangjing Tower?Ding Feng, who is puzzled, can only regard this matter as supernatural, maybe only ghosts can do this!
He hurriedly got up, took off the key and opened the door, and suddenly a hot feeling came over his face.

Looking around, there is already a sea of ​​flames in the Wangjing Tower, and a vague figure is walking back and forth in the flames. He holds a long stick in his hand, which is obviously a torch.He has long been surrounded by a sea of ​​flames, and there is no life or death, but he keeps using torches to burn to places that have not been burned.

Arrow branches are stored on the first floor, and the hardwood that has been dried by moisture is the most flammable material.

Ding Feng was furious, he took the bow and arrow and shot it at the figure.

The man fell to the ground with an arrow and couldn't get up anymore.

Ding Feng asked people to put out the fire on the first floor, and rushed to the second floor by himself, but he found it sadly as soon as he entered.The stairs on the second floor were already on fire, and it was impossible to rush up.

At this time, a burning man rushed down holding a large wooden barrel, which was full of black liquid.The fire man fell to the ground while rushing.He rushed all the way to the first floor before being burned into charcoal by the flames.

A strong and pungent smell rushed into Ding Feng's brain.

"Not good!" Ding Feng looked sad, because Sun Can's offensive was in a hurry, and the first and second floors were placed with strategic materials for convenience.Arrow branches are placed on the first layer, and black oil is placed on the second layer.

This black oil is not ordinary fire oil. It is native to the deep mountains near Kuaiji. It is one of Shanyue's sharp weapons against the enemy. Not only is it more flammable than fire oil, but what is more deadly is that when this black oil burns, it will produce Thick, acrid black smoke.

This kind of smoke is very poisonous and spicy. Ordinary people will feel pain in the mouth and heartache after smelling a cup of tea, which is very uncomfortable.If you smell it for a long time, you will feel dizzy, and you will bleed to death from the seven orifices.

A year ago, Shanyue had invaded Kuaiji, and Sun Ce's army suffered from this black oil and suffered heavy losses.

Later, it was Pang Tong who bought a small leader of a tribe in Shanyue with a lot of money, discovered Shanyue's movements, set up an ambush, and drove the invading Shanyue alien tribe back to the deep mountains and old forests.

These black oils were the trophies seized at that time. Due to their low value and quantity, Sun Ce was reluctant to use them. He planned to use them against Sun Can at critical times.

But now it has become the opponent's weapon against him.

Under the effect of black oil, Wangjinglou was not only surrounded by flames, but also filled with poisonous gas.

The fire became huge in a short time, and it was still spreading forward rapidly. Black smoke billowed in the flames, and the poisonous gas was hazy. If you go up the tower at this moment, you will definitely die.

The Wangjing Tower became a Shura field, and the raging fire devoured everything.

*************************
In the early morning, it was cold and windy, and there was a dead silence around the Wangjinglou.

A handsome young man full of arrogance, looking at the ruins of Yicheng, Wangjinglou clenched his steel teeth, his eyes seemed to burst into flames.

The scholar in Tsing Yi sighed and said: "Man is not as good as God! Unexpectedly, Sun Can is so tricky. Pang Tong will be to blame for what happened last night. He is willing to die to strengthen the morale of the army."

Sun Ce was speechless for a long time, and sighed: "What's the use of killing you. Although Sun is easy to kill, he will never kill a good minister who is loyal to him."

He then asked, "How is General Ding Feng?"

Pang Tong said: "He fought the fire bravely and inhaled too much poisonous gas. He is still unconscious, but his life is not in danger."

Sun Ce was silent for a while, and said, "How about the loss?"

Pang Tong shook his head sadly, the loss last night was beyond their imagination and beyond their capacity to bear.Nine out of ten strategic materials were reduced to ashes, and thousands of grains and grass were all burned.

Sun Ce knew the name by heart, and said in a deep voice, "How long can the remaining food be used?"

"Easy food and less food, barely enough to last for a month." It is the strictness of the management of food and grass allocation.

"One month!" Sun Ce said with a bitter smile, "I never thought that I, Sun Ce, would have such a day." Speaking of this, Sun Ce became more and more depressed, and couldn't help saying: "Cheng Yuan is cautious and conscientious, and his method of guarding the Wangjing Tower How could outsiders have sneaked into the building? Besides, the door lock of the Wangjinglou was not damaged, so far Ce can’t figure out how the other party entered the Wangjinglou without knowing it. Unbelievable."

Pang Tong smiled wryly and said: "The subordinates already know their tactics, and it's easy to say it, but they are in the middle of the game, but they can't detect it."

He glanced at the pottery pipe not far away, and said: "The subordinate went upstairs to check not long ago. On the top floor, he found two cracked pottery pipes. The pottery pipes were filled with nothing but human blood. Excrement. My subordinate stayed in Jiangdong for a while. This Wangjinglou is a place where literati and refined scholars recite poems and view the scenery. How can I turn a blind eye.

Just when the subordinates were wondering, a piece of waste tile fell to the ground.The subordinates looked up and found that the roof of the building had been burned by the fire, revealing many cracks.And there was a big hole just above the pottery pipe.The subordinates thought of a possibility at that time, and asked people to go upstairs to watch.Sure enough, the soldiers found the burnt padded clothes and some food on the top of the building. Presumably, the other party had already figured out a countermeasure, and let the dead soldiers go to the top of the Wangjing Building to wait for us to put them on. "

Speaking of this, Pang Tong suddenly thought of something, his face became as pale as snow, and exclaimed: "No, the flood is coming!"
