Three Kingdoms: Marry Sun Shangxiang at the beginning

Chapter 302 Excavating Juyeze, Flooding Four Counties
At this moment, in Jinxiang city.

"Report...report to the general, the dark guard Feige passed the letter, the Cao army stationed on the south bank of the Weihe River did not cross the river, and Xiahouyuan's cavalry also detoured to the northwest, and there was no movement."

Zhao Yun frowned slightly, "General Chen, do you think Cao Jun is up to some tricks?"

Chen Qingzhi glanced at the scorched blackness in the city, "Now that the city is burned by fire, Jinxiang needs to be rebuilt in the future. There are no people and no food here. It is not a place to stay for a long time. Cao's army is not encircled. It is because we deliberately let our army leave Jinxiang and withdraw to other places. .”

"If it wasn't for food and grass, there would only be five days, so I really want to stay in Jinxiang City and see what the enemy army wants to do."

"Report...report to the general, the dark guard Feige passed on the letter, the Yellow River Navy General Yu Dayou's unit has sailed past Cangting, and can go south at any time, pass Juyeze, and rush to help our army."

"Oh?"

The two of them suddenly lit up.

"How many soldiers and horses are on board?"

"There are more than 300 large warships. In addition to the more than 1 sailors under General Yu Dayou's headquarters, there are also [-] infantry. The commander is General Wei Yan."

"What about food and supplies?"

"It contains siege catapults and bed crossbows. In addition, there are 20 stones of grain and grass, which can be used by the army for several months."

"Good." Zhao Yun was overjoyed immediately, "Then you and I will not leave, General Chen, after you and I have buried the corpses in the city, we will leave the city through the south gate, and come back through the north gate after nightfall."

Chen Qingzhi stroked his beard with his hand, "General Zilong's opinion is exactly what I want."

-

At dawn, the entire vicinity of Jinxiang City was still quiet.

Zhao Yun buried the bodies of Le Jin and others on a high hill to the west, with a stone tablet standing on top of it.

"The tomb of Le Wenqian, the fifth son of Cao Wei."

After noon, there was a roar, followed by the earth shaking.

Both Zhao Yun and Chen Qingzhi were alarmed, and they came to the city wall of Jinxiang at the same time.

Then, what did they see...

A terrifying huge wave more than ten meters high swept towards Jinxiang City from the north.

The turbulent momentum, tens of meters at a breath, was far away in the sky just now, and now it has appeared several miles away.

"Cao Jun dug up Juyeze?" Zhao Yun's face turned ugly, "General Chen, it seems that you and I were right in not leaving Jinxiang City, otherwise, at this moment, I'm afraid we will become cattle and sheep on the plain and be caught The flood was carried away."

Although the cavalry is powerful, although the war horse has four legs and runs fast, but water and fire are ruthless, and the natural power of heaven, who can resist?
"Whoo~"

The violent huge waves leaped over the hill at one end and submerged the newly repaired tombs. I don't know how many bones were washed out. Except for the cement-cast tomb of Yue Jin, I am afraid that everyone else's tombs will be destroyed. was washed away...

"crash"

Immediately afterwards, a 20-meter-high wave directly hit the city wall of Jinxiang. Zhao Yun and Chen Qingzhi stood side by side like this, even if a large amount of water splashed on their faces, they were completely fearless.

"boom……"

The moment the second wave arrived, the flood even covered the entire city wall.

This time, two rows of sword and shield fighters came in front of them, and all of them squatted down on the spot, relying on the protection of their shields, to save their lives from under the huge waves.

Then, what did Zhao Yun see?
From the crenel of the three-zhang city wall, there is only about two or three feet of water depth.

This...I'm afraid that besides Juyeze, the water from the Yellow River was also drawn here.

The water is three feet deep, eight or nine meters?

Can people pass by outside this city?

"Is there wood in the city?" Zhao Yun turned around and asked.

Deng Zhi clasped his fists slightly, "Report to the general, there is not much wood, but you can remove the door panels and beams that have not been burned out in the house to make a raft."

"It's too late, General Zilong." Chen Qingzhi pointed to the city.

Zhao Yun turned his head when he heard the sound, and looked towards the inner city.

At a glance, Wang Yang is everywhere.

The city gate is not airtight. The water depth outside the city has stabilized at this moment, but the flood in the city is still raging, and many houses have been submerged. If there are people at this moment, these houses will be burnt one by one. The broken coffin, no one can escape.

"General, all the houses in the city have been submerged, and now the soldiers have to go to the bottom of the water to salvage wood." Deng Zhi said in a tearful voice.

"How do you make a bamboo raft from wood that has been soaked in water?"

"And it's too dangerous to go into the water now."

"Over the water gate, there should be a big fish from Juyezawa coming in."

"fish?"

Thinking of this, Zhao Yun and Chen Qingzhi looked at each other.

Zhao Yun immediately looked at Deng Zhi.

"Deng Zhi, "This place is close to Juyeze, there should be fishermen, go find some fishing nets, catch fish and shrimp in the city, and improve the food for the soldiers. "

"Here."

"General Chen, fortunately, you and I have already prepared to move the food and grass to the vicinity of the gate tower. Otherwise, the horses in the city may have no fodder at this moment."

When Zhao Yun and Chen Qingzhi came to the stable, they were also shocked at the moment.

If it weren't for the fact that war horses can float, they would have been submerged at this moment. In just a short time, the water depth in the city has already exceeded one foot...

Back at the gate tower, Zhao Yun was full of worries.

"General Zilong is thinking that if the Juye Lake is dug up and cannot be blocked, and the water of the Yellow River flows into the Juye Lake continuously, the flood will continue to ravage Sanyang County, and even submerge the nearby counties. ?" Chen Qingzhi only took one look at Zhao Yun, and guessed what he was thinking at the moment.

"I just didn't expect Xia Houyuan to have such a vicious Xinchang. The water of the Yellow River floods every year, and how many people will be killed every year. Doesn't he know?"

"In order to trap us today, I was willing to dig Juyeze. This time, at least 10 people in nearby counties will be affected."

The two sighed at the same time.

Are they panicking?

Actually don't panic at all.

Because letters cannot be sent by water or land, but they can still send letters by flying pigeons.

At this moment, Yu Dayou's navy is just north of Juyeze, and the lake is now eight or nine meters deep, enough for large ships.

As long as the Yellow River Navy goes south, they can successfully reach the city of Jinxiang.

At that time, they will be able to roam freely around this Shanyang County.

It's just that those common people... Zhao Yun didn't know what to do.

Just like saving the counties in Yingchuan, they spent a lot of money and food to help them survive... Then this battle can be said to be really traumatic.

Two days later, a battle report was delivered to Xuchang.

"Report... to His Royal Highness, Jia Xu offered advice, Xia Houyuan dug up Juyeze, flooded the four counties of Shanyang, Rencheng, Jiyin, and Peicheng, hundreds of thousands of people were displaced, Zhao Yun and Chen Qingzhi's two armies, Trapped in Jinxiang City."
