Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

Chapter 689 Repeat the old trick and flood the enemy

Although it is said that there is a lot of rain in midsummer, but this rain has not fallen for a long time, Chen Yang firmly believes that it will, it will.

So, he waited for nine days, and finally waited until the heavy rain came.

Fortunately, during the waiting period, Jiangdong did not move, and would not help Chen Yang's enemies to attack Xiangyang and Fancheng.

Until the morning of the tenth day, Chen Yang was awakened by the sound of rain and thunder. Then he jumped up and looked outside excitedly. It feels like the end of the world.

Then there was a strong wind, the thunder was deafening, and the raindrops beat the ground mercilessly in the wind.

"It's raining, it's really raining!"

Chen Yang rushed out of the front yard to cheer, letting the raindrops fall on him, as excited as a child.

His movement at this time also woke up Tara and Yaruo.

"What is the general doing?" Tara asked curiously.

"Maybe he wants to play with water?" Ya Ruo said.

They feel very strange.

It's just that they used to live on the grasslands, and they were a little excited when they saw the heavy rain for the first time, so they lay down beside the bed, looked at Chen Yang curiously, occasionally chatted a few words, and laughed nicely .

After running wildly in the rain for a while, Chen Yang noticed the way they looked at him, smiled awkwardly, changed into clean clothes, and asked Zhao Yun and Guan Yu to come over.

"Immediately prepare the boats. After the rain stops, we can go to battle." Chen Yang said.

"There is a stalemate on land, why do we need to prepare boats?" Zhao Yun asked.

"Does Yun Chang still remember how we captured Lu Bu in the battle at Xiapi?"

Chen Yang explained: "It's raining heavily now, and the water in the Xiangjiang River is rising. I have sent people to block the weirs in advance, and the river is about to overflow the river bank. When the rain has almost stopped, the water level is at its highest. Once flooded, the enemy will be fish and turtles!"

Of course, Guan Yu still remembered the incident in Xiapi, and he was deeply impressed. At the beginning, he was tricked by Chen Yang to dig the river channel. Looking back now, he thinks it is feasible.

Ever since, all their boats were prepared on the Xiangjiang River.

Chen Yang saw that the rain had weakened, so he put on his coir raincoat and followed the army out of the city. He saw that the terrain on the other side of the Lukou River was low and flat, and the method of flooding would definitely work, so he just waited for the rain to stop.

It rained for two full days. In the afternoon, the rain gradually decreased, but the water of the Xiangjiang River was almost below the river bank.

Inside the enemy barracks.

"General Gongsun, the Xiangjiang River is now flooded. If the enemy uses tricks to flood it, we may not be able to escape." Ma Chao looked at the embankment worriedly.

The embankment of the Xiangjiang River is higher than the ground where they are stationed. Ma Chao's worries are not unreasonable.

Gongsun Kang smiled disapprovingly and said, "I don't think you need to worry. You see, the Xiangjiang River is so fast that it almost floods the embankment. If you dig the embankment at this time, once the flood washes down, the Cao army who digs it may die." No. In addition, the river embankment is not thin, so if you want to dig, there must be a large number of people, and there will be a lot of noise. If they dare to dig, can they not be discovered by us? As long as they are found, they will all be killed."

Hearing Gongsun Kang's words, Ma Chao thought it made sense, nodded and said: "Intensify inspections, especially in the upper reaches of the river, and we must not let the Cao bandits succeed."

They could think of this question, and of course Chen Yang thought of it too.

It is very difficult to manually dig the embankment. Firstly, the soldiers will be in danger, and secondly, if a large army goes to dig, it is easy to be discovered by the enemy.

Even so, Chen Yang has ways to do it.

That night, Chen Yang took Zhao Yun and Wang Yue and changed into night clothes. There were not many people accompanying him, only 20 people, all of whom were dressed in black.

"Are the firearms ready?"

Chen Yang asked.

"Everything is ready, a total of two hundred, ready to go at any time."

Zhao Yun said solemnly.

"Out of town!"

Chen Yang waved his hand.

At this time, it was no longer raining outside, and Chen Yang came to the edge of the Xiangjiang River to take a look. The water was still rushing and surging.

"Yun Chang, you are ready. As long as you hear the loud noise, you can intercept the enemy downstream. Don't be soft-hearted and kill directly."

Before leaving the city gate, Chen Yang said again: "Ya Ruo and Tara, you must obey Yun Chang's command. If you dare to act recklessly, I will never spare you when I come back."

"Yes!"

they said in unison.

Guan Yu nodded and said, "General, don't worry, I know what to do."

Taking advantage of the darkness, Chen Yang quickly came to the Lukou River, bypassing the enemy's surveillance, and came upstream.

"Dig a hole!"

Chen Yang said.

More than 20 men in black quickly picked up tools and started digging.

However, their tools are very special. It is said to be a shovel, but it does not look like it, because it presents a half-moon shape, and when it is inserted into the ground, it can bring out a large piece of soil, especially the land after the rain, which is easier to dig.

This game is the Luoyang shovel that Chen Yang built in Xiangyang recently.

When he was looking for the address of the reservoir in Xudu, he built it once.

The ground was wet and soft now, and it was easy to dig, and they were quick.

After half of it, two hundred small holes were dug out on the river bank, and the firearms were thrown in one by one. The lead wires were also extended and all connected together.

During the whole process, the enemy still failed to find out.

"General, it's done!"

Zhao Yun came over and said.

"Leave one person to point the lead, and all the others will retreat upstream."

Chen Yang said in a low voice.

Zhao Yun took the initiative to stay, lit the fuse, and everyone quickly retreated upstream, walking more than a mile in the blink of an eye.

boom!

Just as Zhao Yun caught up with Chen Yang, he heard a loud explosion from behind, and the whole ground shook. The sound disturbed many people's dreams.

The concentrated explosion of firearms is naturally powerful. The river embankment has just been blown out of a hole, but now the water flow is very fast, the water pressure is strong, and the soil is blown loose, and the hole is getting bigger and bigger.

clap la la...

The flood could no longer be blocked, and poured down, all rushing to the Lukou River.

The sound, even like thunder, was very shocking, and the ground was also shaking. The whole scene was indescribably spectacular, and the water level of the Xiangjiang River dropped visible to the naked eye.

Chen Yang went to a high place upstream and looked. Even though it was dark and under the moonlight, he could still see the splashing water and hear the sound of rushing water.

"Successful, go back!" Chen Yang said.

罾口川.

"Water... Dashui, run!"

The sound of the explosion woke up everyone in the camp. The moment they got up, they saw the flood rushing, and they lost all sleepiness.

When Ma Chao and the others reacted, the flood had reached their knees.

"Impossible, it's impossible!"

Gongsun Kang yelled.

According to what he thought, it was impossible for Chen Yang to dig the embankment, and the patrolling soldiers didn't respond at all.

How do they do it?

Could it be that this has something to do with the loud noise just now?

"General Gongsun, run!"

Ma Chao gave a loud shout.

If you don't run now, do you want to become a turtle?
