Chapter 276: The Man Behind the Pot

The sky was suddenly dark, accompanied by thunder and lightning in the sky, and the downpour fell from the sky, splashing countless water splashes on the surface of the lake, and the torrential rain was pervasive, as if the world was only left with water.

Dark clouds pressed the lake low, Lei Shaoxuan and others stood on the dam, surrounded by dense fog and heavy rain, where they stood, it was like clouds, and it was dark in their eyes, only the sound of waves crashing on the shore and storms raging in their ears came from their ears.

"Lord Zhou, with such a heavy rainfall, when will Bahu Lake rise to the flood level. Lei Shaoxuan asked.

""Water Classic" cloud: Bahu Lake has risen for two days, and the flood channel is monstrous. According to this account, the flood level can be reached in two days at most. Zhou Zhou said.

"Is the Scripture reliable?"

"I have traveled to Bahu Lake and have an in-depth understanding of the hydrology of Bahu Lake and Henghe River. When the rainy season comes, Bahu Lake swallows thousands of ravines and streams in Taikun Mountain, and it will be discharged in two days at most. ”

"Lord Zhou is really a strange person! Scholars like poetry and songs, but Lord Zhou likes mountains and rivers and hydrology, I heard that in his spare time, he wrote "The Classic of the River in the South of the Yangtze River", I don't know if I have the honor to read it?" Ma Shaoteng said.

Zhou Zhou was silent for a moment.

"I wrote "The Classic of the River in the South of the Yangtze River", which was originally for the benefit of one party, but now it has destroyed the Bahu Dam and flooded the people, and the sins are heavy, and I will not die well in the future, so I don't want to see it. Zhou Zhou said with interest.

"We are also involved in this matter, Lord Zhou's words, is it possible to curse us?" Ma Shaoteng said a little unhappily, "The unification of the world is a great achievement! ”

Behind the crowd, thousands of sergeants braved the rain to nail tree stumps and build earth piles on the dam spillway.

The width of the Bahu Dam is about 1,000 zhang, the mountain is barricade into the Bahu Lake, there is a 50 zhang wide floodway on the right side of the dam, when the water of the Bahu Lake rises to the floodway, it is discharged through the floodway.

If the flood channel is raised flush with the dam, the lake will not be able to discharge the floodwater, and the lake will overflow the dam, scouring the dam, and the final result will inevitably be a dam failure.

Lei Shaoxuan ignored Zhou Zhou's painful gaze, and said expressionlessly: "How long will it take for the dam to burst?"

"The Bahu Dam is an earthen dam, and if the dam is overflowing, it will collapse in half a day or two days! My lord, Bahu Lake stretches for hundreds of miles, which is like a huge bucket. Now is the time when the summer grain is ripe, such a huge flood pours down, destroying countless grains, collapsing countless houses, and displacing hundreds of people. My lord, can you give up the dam collapse plan, this move is really too immoral!"

"Presumptuous!" Ma Shaoteng shouted, "How long can 10,000 lone troops hide in depth? Hundreds of thousands of troops are waiting to cross the river, how can they be rash? Look behind you, if the army does not cross the river as soon as possible, what will they do?"

Behind the crowd, the sergeants wore black coats, and walked through the storm with difficulty, carrying bags of dirt on their backs, like wriggling ants, weak figures, swept away by the wind at any time.

Everyone was silent for a while, like a boulder in the night, and only when the lightning and thunder roared, could the figures be seen from the bright and extinguished scenery.

"My lord, it seems that someone is looking for you. The guard said suddenly.

Lei Shaoxuan turned around to look, and sure enough, three figures walked towards this side, and their thoughts swept away, it was Hu Sanniang, Hu Lingtang and Xiaoqing.

Lei Shaoxuan was stunned and a little apologetic.

Piling up earth and building a dam will inevitably flood the bamboo house, but building a dam is a military operation, and it is impossible to let Hu Sanniang know in advance.

Lei Shaoxuan stepped forward.

"You're here?" Lei Shaoxuan said apologetically, "I was about to look for you." ”

Hu Sanniang held a long sword in her hand and glared at Lei Shaoxuan angrily: "You are a disciple of a family, how can you lead the army to build earth and destroy the dam? The Henghe River has many floods, and countless ancestors have paid their lives to build the dam to benefit future generations for thousands of years." Once the dam is destroyed, the farms, houses, and livestock downstream will be destroyed, and hundreds of people will be displaced, how dare you do this?"

The guards were shocked when they heard this, and they drew their swords one after another.

"Stand down. Lei Shaoxuan said coldly, "This matter has nothing to do with you!"

"Who the hell are you?, how can you be so frustrated, so cold-blooded?" Hu Lingtang had a pained expression on his face, and tears were dripping down his face.

"I'm the prefect and lieutenant of Beichuan, and I'm sorry!" Lei Shaoxuan said distressedly.

"Sure enough, it's the enemy!" Hu Sanniang shouted, "Die!"

The figure flashed, and suddenly a sword stabbed towards Lei Shaoxuan.

The torrential rain poured, and a cold light was like electricity, cutting through the layers of water and slashing towards Lei Shaoxuan.

Hu Sanniang is actually a top kendo master, a sword strikes, people and swords become one, the sword light is like a match, and it is impossible to distinguish the figure or the sword light.

Hu Lingtang hesitated slightly, stomped his feet, and waved his sword with tears.

Hu Lingtang flashed out the afterimage of the Dao, unable to distinguish between virtual and real, only a pair of bright tearful eyes, which instantly stared at Lei Shaoxuan's eyes.

The sword light flashed with the figure, flying diagonally, like a shocking lightning, like a long rainbow falling, and crossed Lei Shaoxuan's neck.

The guards were shocked, these two seemed to be kendo masters, the guards thought that they were not opponents, and they didn't have time to save each other, the sword light was like a net, enveloping Lei Shaoxuan, and the guards were suddenly cold.

"Your Excellency!" exclaimed the guards.

Lei Shaoxuan's body twisted slightly strangely, flashed Hu Sanniang's sword light, and pointed at Hu Sanniang with one hand.

Hu Sanniang's eyes widened, her body fell softly, and she was held by Lei Shaoxuan with one hand, but the sword light of Hu Lingxuan had arrived, and Lei Shaoxuan only felt a pain in his neck, as if he had been pierced by a needle.

Hu Lingxuan stabbed a sword on Lei Shaoxuan's body, but it felt like a stab hit a steel plate wrapped in cotton, and suddenly stopped.

Hu Lingtang looked at it, and saw that Lei Shaoxuan's eyes were full of pain and unbelievable clarity, but his face was still calm and focused.

Hu Lingxuan's heart trembled, and he couldn't stab anymore, Lei Shaoxuan waved his hand, and Hu Lingxuan's body stiffened, unable to move.

"Don't hurt my mother!" Xiaoqing cried, and the bamboo sword in his hand subconsciously stabbed out.

The bamboo sword made a crisp sound of gold and stone, and the tip of the sword was like a blooming flower with countless petals, filled with a palpitating cold.

Everyone was shocked, but they didn't expect that the little girl's sword was the most deadly!

"Xiaoqing, don't!" Hu Lingtang exclaimed.

Lei Shaoxuan sighed lightly, his palm swiped lightly, and the shadow of the connected palms was blocked in front of his chest.

Boom!

The bamboo sword was hit by the palm of his hand, and suddenly exploded, shattering into a string of tattered bamboo knots, and falling abruptly.

Lei Shaoxuan's figure did not stop, flashing towards Xiaoqing, locking Xiaoqing's acupuncture points.

"Lock them up and don't embarrass them. Lei Shaoxuan shouted.

The storm is getting stronger!

After several days of heavy rains, the water level of Bahu Lake has risen sharply and has overflowed the embankment.

Although the Bahu Dam has been connected with the peaks on both sides for thousands of years, and the surface of the dam is covered with dense grass and trees, the foundation is still an earth dam, under the impact of flowing water, the surface of the dam slowly collapses, gradually revealing the soft soil, there are many depressions, forming a waterfall, the dam is so high, the water flow is turbulent, and the collapse place is getting bigger and bigger.

Looking at Bahu Lake from afar, the water surface is turbulent, like a heavenly lake, faintly tilting.

"My lord, one day at most, the dam will collapse. Zhou Zhou sighed.

Lei Shaoxuan nodded, looked at Zhou Zhou and asked, "Are you unbearable?"

"The dam of Bahu Lake is like an ocean pouring down, I don't know how many people will drown, how many people will starve to death after the flood, there will be a plague after the disaster, and I don't know how many people will die, it can be described as a ...... of life."

"What about you?" Lei Shaoxuan looked around.

All the captains who were seen by Lei Shaoxuan bowed their heads one after another.

Lei Shaoxuan sighed, "If you risk your life to save innocent people, are you willing?"

The lieutenants raised their heads, hesitated for a moment, and nodded their heads.

Seeing this, Lei Shaoxuan said sharply: "Come on, release the officials of the South Vietnamese dam guarding the Bahu Yuan, tell them that the dam will burst, give them a few horses, and let them quickly notify the local officials in the flood area and make preparations as soon as possible." ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

"My lord, doesn't this mean telling the enemy that our army is here?" Xue Ming couldn't help but say.

"The dam will collapse, and even if the South Vietnamese army knows about it, it will not have time to pursue our army. Inform the people in advance, and save as much as you can! As soon as the news comes out, our army will be exposed, and this is the price you are willing to risk your lives to save the people. In any case, as soon as the dam bursts, our army will be able to cross the river. Lei Shaoxuan said in a deep voice.

"The carrier pigeon urgently informed me of the spies along the river and spread the news that the dam was about to burst. Lei Shaoxuan added, "As for the reason for the dam failure, tell those South Vietnamese officials that our army is the Taiping Army, because the South Vietnamese Navy Division was too ruthless in suppressing bandits, forcing us to have no way out, and we were forced to dig the embankment and die together with the South Vietnamese Navy Division." ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

This is too ruthless, why do you deduct everything from the Taiping Army?

If you want to talk about the pot man, it is estimated that Zhang Mazi of the Taiping Army is the first in number, and he belongs to the kind of person who has no ancients before and no one after him, the pot that attacked Yangcheng for Lei Shaoxuan, the pot that destroyed the grain, the pot that killed the prisoners, and now the pot that digs the Bahu Dam on his back.

It is said that one day, in the Taiping military camp, Zhang Mazi inexplicably roared again and again, "Who did it?", vomited several liters of blood, fell to the ground and was bedridden, so far, the Taiping army is declining day by day.
