In the city of Yanxian County, Gongsun Zhan's temporary resting mansion, when he saw such violent thunder and lightning in the sky, accompanied by a strong wind, when the first drop of rain fell, Gongsun Zhan's face changed slightly, accompanied by a little exclamation.

    "Not good, Zhuo County is in danger!"

    Gongsun Zhan, as the former Taishou of Fanyang County, has stayed in Zhuo County for nearly ten years, and is extremely clear about every road and every number of trees in Zhuo County, and the geographical environment near Zhuo County is also clear. At the same time, as a veteran with rich combat experience, Gongsun Zhan also simulated in his mind what kind of method he should use to recapture Zhuoxian if it was captured, which was the easiest and easiest way.

    The first and easiest way is undoubtedly that the city has its own soldiers and horses in ambush, and the inside should be combined with the outside, which is the simplest and easiest way;

    Zhuo County is near the Changshui River, a tributary of the Yellow River, and Gongsun Chan naturally knows it. And the power of nature that can be borrowed is the Changshui River. Intercept the flow of water, in the weather of heavy rain, let go of the water of the Changshui River, the water rushes down, and washes a qiē in Zhuo County, when the time comes, Zhuo County is naturally not attacked. However, this is not something that can be done if you want to. First of all, there must be a rainstorm that meets the conditions, in Youzhou, this kind of rainstorm is extremely rare, in the nearly ten years that Gongsun Chan stayed in Zhuo County, he only encountered a rainstorm that could meet the conditions; secondly, he must have a considerable understanding of the geographical environment of Zhuo County, and Gongsun Chan has been staying for a long time, so it will be so clear. If you change people and don't know enough about Zhuo County, you can't do it at all. Of course, there is another point that must be satisfied, that is, the mind of the person who uses the plan is decisive and ruthless enough. Otherwise. This kind of thing is not something that everyone will do, and there are still people in the city who don't know how many, once the water floods the city. This consequence is simply not acceptable to ordinary people. Just like Guan Yu in history, he was flooded in the forbidden army, and he was famous. People only see the surface of this victory, but they do not expect that behind it, countless people have been harmed, their homes have been destroyed, and their relatives have been killed or injured.

    Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses to attack Zhuoxian have been gone for three days, but so far, Gongsun Zan has not received the slightest news that Zhuoxian has been attacked. Previously, Gongsun Chan thought that the troops and horses that Yuan Shao had assigned were just feints to attack Zhuo County. In order to shake Gongsun Zhan's military heart, Gongsun Chan didn't take it to heart. However, when he saw this extremely rare rainstorm, Gongsun Chan immediately reacted to the other party's possible purpose.

    If it is really as Gongsun Chan thinks, the other party will be too terrible.

    First of all, the other party can know so much about the situation in Zhuo County, or the other party is very familiar with the situation in Youzhou, which is very unfavorable for Gongsun Zhan; Judging by the weather, there was not the slightest sign of heavy rain while the other side. It is likely that it has been calculated that there will be heavy rain, so with such intelligence, how can Gongsun Chan not be shocked.

    "Hopefully, it's just thinking too much about yourself. ”

     Looking down the window at the raging sky, Gongsun Zhan's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he muttered to himself. As for whether Gongsun Chan regretted not sending troops to reinforce Zhuo County before, there is no need to consider it at all. There are 50,000 troops stationed in Zhuoxian County, and it is impossible to give the opponent's 500,000 troops to attack it in a short time, and there is no need for reinforcements. If the other party is flooding Zhuo County's plan. Even if all the 150,000 troops were sent for reinforcements, it would not help. On the contrary, it wasted the 150,000 troops.

    "Someone came and ordered the generals to discuss matters here. Make no mistake!"

    After thinking for a moment, Gongsun Chan quickly made a decision. Regardless of whether the other party really wants to attack Zhuo County with water, he must also prepare early, once it really happens, it will have a huge impact on his own army. Therefore, it is also necessary to take precautions as soon as possible, and as for the so-called precautions, they will naturally be withdrawn from Yuxian County.

    Not to mention the actions of Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao inside and outside the county, they are far away dozens of miles away outside Zhuoxian County, on the hidden peaks of Zhang He's 10,000-strong army.

    "General Zhang, the soldiers are ready. ”

    In front of Zhang He and Gao Ran, a Jizhou soldier said in an impassioned tone with a little excitement on his face. Now that the whole army already knows Zhang He's plan, a great merit is about to be won, as soldiers participating in the war, how can they not be excited and excited, but everyone has a share of the credit.

    "Hmm!"

    Zhang He nodded lightly, all of which were expected by him, and there was nothing to be excited about, but he didn't stop the soldiers' mood. When he thought of this strategy, Zhang He was already excited, but now it is just unnecessary, not that Zhang He did not change his face before facing such a credit.

    "Yuanbo, how is the water potential now?"

    As early as a day ago, Gao Ran had led 5,000 soldiers to intercept the water of the Changshui River, and the Changshui River had condensed to a frightening point after a day. And coupled with this half-day rain injection, once the blockage of the Changshui River is lifted, what will be the might, and you don't have to think about it to know what the consequences will be.

    "儁乂, all ready, just waiting for your order!"

    Gao Lan is as excited and excited as the soldiers below, and for the soldiers below, they are excited and excited because of their merits. Although Gao Ran also has merit, he doesn't value it very much, with his current status, even if he has great merit, his status can't rise much. Therefore, relatively speaking, Gao Ran was more concerned about being able to show his face in front of Yuan Shao.

    "Good!"

    Zhang He nodded lightly, and his hands involuntarily clenched into fists. The last moment is coming, and even the calm and calm Zhang He finally has a little fluctuation.

    "The soldiers who ordered the operation, wait until a quarter of an hour later, let go of the interception of the Changshui River, it's time to take Zhuoxian!"

    "Oh!"

    The soldiers who gave the order shouted loudly and rushed towards the Changshui River. And the nearly 10,000 soldiers who were ready to go here were also in a team of ten, standing in front of the raft of the team, their bodies trembling slightly.

    A quarter of an hour is not long, but it is not short. If it is a time to play, this quarter of an hour will not be heard at all, and it will pass quietly. However, in the eyes of today's soldiers. A quarter of an hour seems to be a long time, but it feels like a year.

    "It's time!"

    Zhang He and Gao Ran snorted, and their eyes flashed. Then Zhang He waved his hand, and the soldiers suddenly held their breath. Take a vigilant posture.

    "Boom!"

    "Boom!"

    This is not the momentum of a cavalry charge, nor is it the momentum of nature. However, the soldiers of Yuan Shao in Jizhou who were present only felt as if it was the end of the world, and the entire ground was trembling violently, and they naturally knew what caused such a momentum.

    Compared with the feeling of nearly 10,000 soldiers here, the defenders and people in Zhuoxian County also had an induction when the Changshui River was rushing.

    "What's going on? Why is the earth trembling?"

    "Is there a large cavalry charging to attack our city?"

    " idiot. Such a momentum would only require a cavalry charge of at least 50,000 or more. In addition to adults, who in the whole world can have so many cavalry. ”

    "Well, that's right. But what other than the cavalry could make such a noise?"

    The soldiers above the head of Zhuoxian County were at a loss, and when they were discussing with each other, the water of the Changshui River was already rushing towards Zhuoxian. How fast the water was when it was rushing, even though the Changshui River was several miles away from Zhuoxian, but. In front of the mighty Changshui River, this distance is not enough to see.

    "Look, what's that?"

    There are also sharp-eyed soldiers above the head of Zhuoxian County. Seeing the silvery white light appearing in the distance, he immediately exclaimed. With this exclamation, the soldiers all looked into the distance, and they all saw a silver light. Then, when they saw exactly what the silver-white light was, everyone's eyes widened and their eyes froze. The silver-white light was obviously a stream of water, but in the distance it made people think it was a point, and when this point was near. Immediately, you could see that it was a stream of water. A stream of water carrying the majesty of Wanjun.

    "Ahh

    "Help! What's going on? How can there be so much water?"

    "Don't panic. The waters will not flood the city. ”

    Zhuo County's city wall is seven or eight meters high, and this water is only six or seven meters high, obviously not flooding the city. However, the soldier who spoke was clearly overjoyed too soon. This is only because the blockage of the Changshui River has just been released, and the momentum of the first wave has not yet fully demonstrated the power of the water. When the first wave of water was blocked outside the city wall, something that frightened the soldiers at the head of the city happened again, only to see the more violent water rushing from behind, and looking at the momentum of the water, it was at least nine meters high. Nine meters does not sound like much, compared with the tsunami power of more than ten meters or dozens of meters above the sea, it is a little inadequate, but the water potential of these nine meters is more than enough to deal with the Zhuoxian city wall that is only seven or eight meters high.

    "Oh! no, the walls are going to be flooded!"

    "Run, it's too late to run!"

    Although the words shouted by the shouting soldiers were a little ridiculous, the water was so fierce that it could submerge the city walls, where else could they run?

    "Ahh

    "Mother, where are you!"

    "Daddy, come and save the baby!"

    "Daddy..."

    The screams rang out one after another, not only the defenders of Zhuo County, but also countless people in Zhuo County who were also suffering such huge trauma. The power of nature is unquestionable, and when the power of nature is used in war, the damage caused is also extremely terrible. It's just that when the war comes, when the power of nature needs to be used, most of the generals and superiors will only think about whether the war can be won, and will not consider the life and death of ordinary people. This is the cruelty of war, and no one can stay out of it.

    The entire Zhuo County seems to be facing the end of the world at this moment, and all the things and people in Zhuo County are washed by the water without the slightest temper. The people of the north have never understood the nature of water, and even if they do, they dare not guarantee that they will be of any use under such a fierce water force. If someone watches from above, they can see that there are all kinds of things floating everywhere in Zhuoxian County, including household belongings, wooden planks of houses, livestock, and some corpses that have been submerged in the water.

    "Go!"

    Just when the soldiers and people in Zhuoxian County were being treated like purgatory, Zhang He gave an order with a cold face. 10,000 soldiers came on rafts and followed the current to the wind. With the convenience of the flow of water, the city wall of Zhuo County could not stop the advance of Zhang He's army at all.

    When Zhang He's army arrived outside Zhuoxian County. The water has also stopped rushing. After all, Zhang He only intercepted the flow of the Changshui River and guided it to Zhuo County, but the flow was still limited. But. Under the washing of the water, the 50,000 troops of Zhuo County did not have the slightest defensive power at all. Some of them were unlucky and had already died under the water, while those who were lucky enough to save a small life did not have the slightest combat strength now, lying on their stomachs in places where the water could not be flooded, gasping for breath, and letting them fight the enemy at this moment was simply a joke. With their posture, how much combat power can they have?

    "Ahh

    Some soldiers stared at the outside of Zhuoxian County with dejected eyes, and when the thousands of rafts appeared, they were immediately greeted by them, and then, exclamations rang out one after another. When the raft got closer and closer to Zhuoxian, they immediately knew that it was the enemy army. But what can they do? They were already physically and mentally exhausted by the flood, facing the arrival of the enemy army. And what combat power can it have?

    However, after seeing the appearance of the enemy, everyone finally understood why there was a big water in Zhuoxian. Apparently this is the work of the enemy. Needless to say, for Zhang He, a 10,000-strong soldier, most of the soldiers have a look of resentment. They are the defenders of Zhuo County, many soldiers are from Zhuo County, their relatives are in Zhuo County, their homes are also in Zhuo County, and now Zhuo County has suffered so much trauma, their relatives, how their homes have been hurt. You don't have to think about it to know. Therefore, for Zhang He's 10,000 soldiers. The defenders of Zhuo County will naturally not have a good face.

    "The general was originally under the command of Lord Yuan, the assassin of Jizhou, and now he obeys the mandate of heaven to crusade against Gongsun Zhan, a thief. If you are interested. Surrender to our army immediately, but if you don't surrender, you will not be killed!"

    Zhang He stood on the bamboo raft at the front, drew his sword at his waist, and shouted loudly.

    Although most of the Zhuoxian defenders were very resentful of Zhang He's 10,000 soldiers and horses, what could they do if they were resentful? Under the washing of the flood, they did not have the slightest temper, and now they want to stand up and fight, they can't raise the slightest strength, and what else can they do in the face of the 10,000 Jizhou soldiers who are full of spirit and like wolves and tigers?

    However, most of the Zhuoxian soldiers compromised, but there were also many Zhuoxian generals who would rather die than surrender.

    "Ahh

     is above a certain position at the head of the city, and I don't know if the position here is relatively high, or if it's lucky. The more than 2,000 defenders of Zhuoxian County in this area were not affected in the slightest, and in the face of Zhang He, who came by water, the first general spat disdainfully.

    "Traitor, if you use such a hurtful strategy, you will be punished sooner or later. How can all the men in Zhuo County be cowards, and they would rather die in battle than surrender!"

    "I'd rather die in battle than surrender!"

     With the general's firm tone, the 2,000 soldiers behind him also shouted loudly. Because of Zhang He, their relatives and homeland will suffer such great trauma, and it is impossible to make them surrender to Zhang He. Even though they were physically and mentally exhausted now, with the support of hatred, they still grabbed their weapons and delivered a dying blow. Although there is a war, such casualties are inevitable. However, some people are able to endure it silently, and some people are unable to accept it. Obviously, this general and the 2,000 soldiers could not bear this kind of thing.

    "Since you don't know whether to live or die, it will be fulfilled for you!"

    When Zhang He came up with this plan to take Zhuo County, he had already expected that such a situation would happen and would be resented by the people of Zhuo County. However, Zhang He still did it, obviously, he didn't care at all. In other words, in Zhang He's eyes, in order to win the war, some necessary means and casualties should be due. Perhaps, it was because of Zhang He's actions that his ending was extremely tragic, and he was killed by thousands of arrows through his heart, or maybe it was God's punishment for him.

    "Kill!But there are those who resist and do not surrender, kill!"

    Zhang He shouted angrily and gave an order, and rode the bamboo raft towards the area. But in the blink of an eye, the battle was over. In the face of 10,000 wolf-like and energetic Zhang He soldiers, the general and 2,000 soldiers had little ability to resist at all. However, even so, none of the general and the 2,000 soldiers surrendered. Without hesitation, they fought with Zhang He's soldiers until their last breath was extinguished. In this way, it also caused nearly 1,000 casualties to Zhang He's soldiers.

    "Although it is an enemy, a certain has to be praised. These soldiers are strong men, and they will wait until the war is over. Good life and burial!"

    Zhang He's mind was obviously very hard, but after seeing this general and more than 2,000 soldiers charging at his soldiers and horses without fear of death, Zhang He's heart was still a little touched, and he gave an order in a deep voice. Perhaps, it was precisely because of Zhang He's move that Zhang He took over Zhuo County later. There are a lot fewer obstacles, and it's more smooth.

    In the face of Zhang He's soldiers and horses, Zhuo County has no power to resist at all, and ordinary people naturally needless to say, the war has little to do with them, and who the city falls into has nothing to do with them. And most of the 50,000 Zhuoxian defenders surrendered to Zhang He, and a small number of soldiers who resisted to the end were also mercilessly killed by Zhang He. Since Zhang He has already dared to release water to flood Zhuo County, doesn't he dare to kill people?

    When the light loss at dawn jumps out of the horizontal plane. The dust has finally settled. And the flood in Zhuoxian County has finally dissipated. It's just that the tragic situation in Zhuoxian County is unbearable to look at. Everywhere there were corpses lying quietly on the ground. Fifty-six out of ten of the houses in the city were also destroyed, and all but a few of the more solid ones were more or less damaged.

    Even if he caused such a situation, Zhang He was a little shocked in his heart, but he didn't expect a big flood to cause such consequences. I am afraid that within a few years, Zhuo County will not be able to regain its original prosperity.

    "Someone came, sent an order, dragged the corpses out of the city for burial, and organized people to distribute food. At the same time, it helps the people in the city to build a place to live. Orders are to be carried out immediately after they have been issued, and there must be no mistakes! Ben will not be spared!"

    Zhang He also knew that because of his actions, he would attract the resentment of the people of Zhuo County. But. War is such a cruel thing, and it is impossible to stay out of it. Since he has done it, Zhang He will not regret it. However, now that the war is over, it is naturally a matter of appeasement. The corpse must be solved, otherwise, the ensuing plague is afraid that the entire Zhuo County will be destroyed. Food and shelter must also be addressed, so that the people of Zhuo County can accept this reality. Otherwise, once the people of Zhuoxian County are dissatisfied and leave Zhuoxian, even if Zhuoxian is taken, it will only capture an empty city, which is not the result that Zhang He wants. Moreover, this will also bring a little stain to Zhang He's record, if someone uses this to attack Zhang He, Zhang He will not be able to refute it.

    Perhaps because of the impact of Zhang He's pacification, most of the people in Zhuo County accepted this fact. Now it is useless to resent Zhang He, the top priority is to save his life, and then rebuild his homeland.

    The battle in Zhuoxian County ended completely at dawn, and the battle report was also passed to Yuan Shao before sunset that day.

    "What? General Zhang He took Zhuo County?"

    Yuan Shao saw the battle report in his hand, and he was a little incredulous at the first time. With 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, Zhang He actually took down Zhuo County, which has 50,000 defenders and thick walls, which seems to be a bit fantastical. However, looking at the record in black and white on the battle report, Yuan Shao finally determined that he was not mistaken.

    "Good!good!good!"

    Yuan Shao suddenly laughed and praised repeatedly.

     "Jun Yi is worthy of being my Jizhou general, and I want to be rewarded for being able to win Zhuo County so easily." ”

    Compared with Yuan Shao's joy, Wen Chou and Yan Liang's faces were naturally a little ugly. The credit for winning Zhuo County is definitely not small. If it is said that taking Gongsun Chan is the greatest merit in attacking Youzhou, taking Jixian County, the seat of Youzhou governance, is the second greatest contribution. Then, taking down Gongsun Zhan's old nest Zhuo County when he was the Taishou of Fanyang County can definitely be called the third credit. Now that Zhang He and Gao Ran, who are despised by Wen Chou and Yan Liang, have won it, where will the two of them be in a good mood? Judge, Feng Ji, Guo Tu and others naturally have a change of mind in their hearts, but the appearance of Zhang He and Gao Ran has little impact on them. Except for a sigh in my heart, I didn't have too many thoughts.

    Compared with the joy of Yuan Shaojun outside the county, the mood of Gongsun Zan in the city is diametrically opposite. (To be continued)
