Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 921 Fighting Chang'an ([-])
Li Meng and Wang Fang stood inside the city wall of Sucheng, looking at the faint line on the cornerstone of the city wall, their faces were not very good-looking, which made an old man in Gebu tremble a little.

Scared.

Although these Xiliang soldiers said that they were only called to find out whether Sucheng had been flooded in Luoshui over the years, but how could this ferocious face make this old man not afraid?
Li Meng sighed, then waved for someone to take the old man away.Immediately, the old man left in a panic as if he had received an amnesty, as if he would be infected with disaster if he stayed with these Xiliang soldiers for a moment longer.

"...What should I do?" Li Meng seemed to be asking Wang Fang, but also seemed to be asking himself.

Below this water mark, there are still one or two water marks, which shows that Su City is not a city with extremely high terrain that will not withstand floods in recent years...

Millet City, if traced back, at least before the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, because the terrain here is flat, the climate is suitable, and it is close to the Luoshui River, and the irrigation is convenient, so it became a good place for early humans to plant millet, so it got its name.

However, the advantage of flat terrain for planting corn has become a disadvantage when the floods flood, which means that there is no way to resist the floods, and the water marks left in the city pools have become witnesses of this bad situation. .

Of course, the water alone will not be able to overwhelm the city, because after all, one is that there is not enough water, and the other will naturally recede after the flood peak passes, but the problem is the other side effects that a large amount of water will bring...

"...Report!" At this moment, a scout came rushing towards King Li Meng, and reported, "...the enemy camp in the north is preparing their troops, and there seems to be signs of marching!"

"what?!"

Fei Qian's troops are about to march?
Li Meng and Wang Fang looked at each other, feeling a little shocked.

Want to attack Sucheng?
Li Meng suddenly thought of something, frowned immediately, and said to Wang Fang: "...there are millet fields outside the city, if the dam breaks... the city should be fine for a short time, but it just happened a few days ago. If it rains heavily, if it is flooded again, the land outside the city... I'm afraid you and I will be trapped in the city..."

Li Meng and Wang Fang were not people who cared about the country and the people, and naturally they would not have any compassion for the crops in the cornfields outside Sucheng, but Li Meng told a fact.

The soil of these fields is soft. There was a heavy rain just a while ago, and the land is still relatively wet. If it is soaked in water again, it will become a muddy field. Let’s not talk about crops, but it will become a place for soldiers to march. Big problem, let alone galloping cavalry.

When Li Meng said this, Wang Fang immediately understood.

"...So that's how it is!" Wang Fang stomped his feet and said, "There is mud outside the city, you and I can't go out, so we are trapped here alive! This... This is to bypass us and cover up the attack. Chang'an!"

The matter before Li Meng and Wang Fang became a dilemma.

Sending troops out to destroy the dam, you don't even need to think about it, you can guess with your toes that the opposite side must have arranged something, maybe you will be ambushed!

But if left alone, once the dam breaks, as soon as Luoshui comes, there must be a vast ocean outside Sucheng. Although the city walls will not be damaged immediately, Fei Qian's army may not be in this situation. They can get in, but at the same time, Li Meng and Wang Fang's troops can't get out either!

In this way, it wasn't Li Meng and Wang Fang who held back Fei Qian, but Fei Qian used Luoshui to trap Li Meng and Wang Fang...

Even if Fei Qian's infantry on the opposite side didn't move, and a thousand cavalry rushed through Sucheng, the consequences would be unbearable for Li Meng and Wang Fang.

As a member of Li Jue's tribe, Li Meng knew in his heart that even though the stalls in Chang'an City are quite large now, but they have to defend three aspects at the same time, Tongguan is relatively better, mainly infantry, but in Wuzhangyuan, in order to guard against Ma Teng and Han Sui's coalition army also needed to deploy a lot of cavalry, so in the hinterland of Guanzhong, Li Jue, Guo Si and others actually had relatively few cavalry.One thousand cavalry, say more or less, but it is enough to pull the weak Guanzhong front of Li Jue, Guo Si and others. Maybe they will wait for the Xiliang faction after the line of defense is opened here. What is more is the situation of total collapse!
Not all the counties and counties in the Guanzhong area obeyed Li Jue and Guo Si. Li Jue and Guo Si are obedient, but who knows who they will lean towards next?
Just when Li Meng and Wang Fang were still in Sucheng, hesitating, planning, discussing what to do, in the early morning of the next day, Li Meng and Wang Fang, who hadn't slept well all night, received another more embarrassing Their disturbing news is that Feiqian's large cavalry force has left the camp, crossed Sucheng, and headed straight south!

"It's broken!" Even though Wang Fang's expression changed, it was true that something happened that he was most afraid of, and he couldn't help but blurted out, "This is really going to directly attack Chang'an!"

"What's the specific situation, let me tell you in detail!" Although Li Meng was also shocked, he still asked about the specific situation.

The scout reported: "In the middle of the night, the cavalry in the enemy's camp in the north took advantage of the chaotic sky and walked slowly with their horses in their hands. If it wasn't happened to be spotted by the brothers who were spying outside the city, I'm afraid they would have let them slip away like this. It's over!"

"Then have you been discovered?" Li Meng asked.

The scout hesitated for a moment, and then said: "It should not be... The brothers dug a nest in the wild, unless they are close, and it is night, they probably won't be able to find it... And the enemy army is heading south all the way. Didn't do anything else..."

Wang Fang asked: "Can you see how many soldiers and horses there are?"

The scout nodded, shook his head again, and said, "Although the sky is unclear and it is difficult to count, there are at least a thousand people..."

After the scouts retreated, Wang Fangfang turned to Li Meng and said, "If you don't let someone immediately lead the troops to chase after him, you can't let the cavalry sneak to Chang'an like this!"

Li Meng thought for a while, but shook his head, and said, "The opponent's cavalry has been gone for a long time, so it's so easy to chase... How about...you and I lead the army to attack their camp! Yes! Attack their camp!"

Li Meng hit his palm heavily with his hand, and said in a deep voice: "The cavalry is gone, and the infantry will have to divide a part to defend the dam... At this time, the camp must be empty. Dispatch, raid the camp, and defeat the few with the crowd, we will be able to decide with one action! In this way, even if the opponent digs the dam, we will be on the high ground and will not be damaged! After defeating the enemy's stronghold, we will return to the division to attack It's not too late to defeat his lone army!"
