Chapter 483: Clearing the Water Formation

Although he knew that it was futile, Chen Hai still asked Tie Kun to write a letter of surrender to Tuoba Banner. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Seeing the conditions listed in the surrender letter, Tuoba Qi angrily tore up the surrender letter.

According to the surrender letter, the Tuoba tribe not only had to agree to the large and small tribes along the Tong River, but from then on, only the Tieya tribe was the head of the horse, but also sent all the Yanzhou bitter slaves in the Tuoba tribe's territory to Hailing.

In Tuoba Qi's view, in two more days, the main force of reinforcements from the Baishui River will arrive on the east bank of the Tong River, and then the two departments will face each other across the river, making boats and transporting grain.

Although the commanding heights of the northeast peak have been lost, the situation is somewhat passive, but the valley at the northeast foot of Hailing Yuan is quite open, facing the river on one side and the rocky ridges on both sides.

On the one hand, Tuoba Banner dug trenches and built protective walls on the west side of the valley to distance itself from the main force of the enemy army occupying the northeast peak, and on the other hand, it sent slaves to cut down wood and build docks on the riverside beach on the west bank of the Tong River, so that reinforcements and supplies could be continuously transported to the west bank.

Considering the characteristics of the dense firing of the Heavenly Machine Repeater, Tuoba Banner also ordered the woods on both sides of the valley to be cut down to contain wider and thicker wooden shields, and at the same time, a woven wooden fence wall was erected horizontally in the camp so that when the Heavenly Machine Repeater attacked from the sky, the generals in the camp could have more cover.

Standing on the top of the northeast peak of Hailing Plain, Chen Hai was able to hold the Tuoba Tribe's riverside camp for thirty or forty miles clearly--at such a close distance, Cang Yi could even unleash a Purple Sky Divine Thunder from time to time, blasting it over, making the Tuoba Tribe's generals exhausted.

Seeing this scene, Tie Kun shook his head and said: "This Tuoba Banner is really a little strong who can't be killed, and he is still resisting stubbornly in this situation of exhaustion - if it weren't for the pity of his brute bravery, he would have to completely drive him into the Tong River and make dumplings." ”

Chen Hai laughed and said, "After all, this Tuoba Banner is still a smart person. He knew that we couldn't afford too many casualties, and he seemed to be sure that our fundamental purpose was to expand our strength, so he thought of building a dock right under our noses......"

When the main forces of the Iron Cliff Army and the Black Yan Army were transferred from Zishui and the Wild Eagle River, and the two stone ridges east of the northeast peak were clamped from the two wings, Chen Hai and Tiekun officially began to build a dam at the mouth of the gorge halfway up the eastern slope of the northeast peak.

Many barbarian generals of the Tuoba Department were very surprised when they saw this scene, saying that it was a parapet wall, but there was no hole in the center for soldiers and horses to enter and exit.

Dam?

Zuo Vulture muttered to himself: "Isn't this Iron Cliff Department crazy? What is the use of building a dam in the middle of the mountainside, is it still afraid that the Tong River will one day pour up?"

Tuoba Qi originally squinted his eyes, and when he heard Zuo Vulture's last words, he was scared out of a cold sweat.

Not to mention that the demon Jiao who has cultivated into a demon fetus has the magical power of clouds and rain, in the summer of the Hanhai grassland, the rainfall is abundant, and the dam on the eastern slope is built on the halfway slope, once the water is stored to form a hanging lake, their more than 80,000 elites, tens of thousands of Yanzhou bitter slaves and hundreds of thousands of livestock, aren't they all located under these hanging lakes?

Tuoba Qi expressed his worries, and everyone was shocked.

If Tuoba Qi's conjecture becomes a reality, then won't all the tens of thousands of horses they have to be washed into the Tong River and drowned?

Draw the knife quickly, and die on the battlefield is the most glorious destination of every barbarian. Death is not terrible, what is terrible is that there is a sharp blade hanging around the neck all the time, and it is the most terrible thing not to know when this sharp blade will fall.

Two days later, Tuoba Hao, who had dealt with all the matters related to the requisition of the army, rushed to the west bank and joined his son Tuoba Qi, Zuo Yang, Zuo Vulture and other generals.

As soon as he got down from the vulture, Tuoba Hao glared at Tuoba Qi and the others who were on the ground to greet him, and walked towards the camp without saying a word.

"There are many Tuoba tribes and Kereh tribes, and they have staked the thousand-year-old clan fortune on you, so you can make it like this?" The hoarse voice made Tuoba Qi's heart palpitate for a while, although he didn't raise his head, but he was ashamed to face his father Tuoba Hao's angry expression of hatred at this time, and he snorted for a while, and couldn't say anything.

Seeing the embarrassing atmosphere in the tent, Zuo Yang coughed and stepped forward and said: "The patriarch doesn't need to blame Zongzi too much, but the Iron Cliff Department didn't know when it colluded with the human race, and got dozens of demon beasts to help, which made Zongzi suffer a big loss, which is really a crime of non-war." ”

"Brother Zuo, for the sake of Tuoba and Keree, you were seriously injured by this, and I Tuoba Hao will keep it in mind, but," Tuoba Hao said here, and pointed to Tuoba Qi and said: "If you lose, you lose, and you can't find any other reason." Originally, on the battlefield, winning or losing was ordinary, but ignoring the situation, forcing himself to a desperate situation, and giving so many brave lives in vain, I can't say anything about him? Now the situation is already dangerous, how do you deal with it?"

Hearing Tuoba Hao's question, Tuoba Qi gritted his teeth and sorted out his thoughts, and said: "When I was looking for this place to camp, I was thinking that the commanding heights of the main peak could not be used to open troops and horses, although it was not conducive to holding on, but the canyon on this side of the main peak was deep and long, and it could resist strong enemies, but I didn't expect the Iron Cliff Department to be so ruthless, after seizing the main peak, I actually thought of building a city and storing water, and wanted to drown us here. On the one hand, we will try to break through to the north and south sides before the big construction of the city, and at the same time, we will build more skins and rafts that can store gas, in case we need ......."

Hearing this, Tuoba Hao nodded slowly, knowing that Tuoba Qi had at least not been able to completely panic at this time, and said: "You can think of these points, which means that we have not completely messed up, and as long as we have the fighting spirit to treat death as if we were at home and let go of the struggle, the Iron Cliff Department can't do anything to us," and said to Zuo Yang, "At the current crisis, I hope that you and I can work together and grit our teeth to get through, today I made a big oath in front of the generals, and after returning to Dingbo Lake, the position of the Khan King, you and I will promote the sage to live together." ”

In the past, when it was decided to form a khanate, it was decided that Tuoba would be the leader and the Kereh department would be supplemented, but at this time, Tuoba Hao made such a promise, and the barbarian generals in the big tent of the Kereh department were also slightly uplifted when they heard it.

****************************

Next, the battle situation at the northeast foot of Hailing Yuan suddenly became tense.

The Tuoba Department was unwilling to be trapped in the canyon, the mouth of the gorge to the eastern foot was too narrow, the terrain was terrainous, and there were twenty or thirty heavenly machine crossbows in front of it.

The Iron Cliff Army and the Black Yan Army also frantically seized the narrow stone ridge from the two wings, and did everything possible to completely suppress the 80,000 soldiers and horses of the Tuoba Department and a large number of slaves and livestock in the canyon.

As the dam at the mouth of the Dongpo Gorge increased day by day, the battle situation on both flanks became more and more tragic.

When the Tuoba Department stepped up its time to build a large raft, it not only organized the withdrawal of personnel from the west bank, but even transported hundreds of barbarian soldiers from the east bank every day to supplement the casualties and losses on the east bank, and put on a posture of wanting to die together with the Iron Cliff Department.

Such a bloody battlefield made Qi Hanjiang and the others frightened when they saw it, and asked Chen Hai in confusion: "Master, is this Tuoba Department guilty of madness, and it has to exhaust all the bravery in the clan before being willing?"

Chen Hai sighed and said: "This is the clever place of Tuoba Hao, Tuoba Qi's father and son - they want to withdraw at this time, there are not enough ships and rafts, and as long as someone withdraws first, the morale of the army behind will be completely chaotic, and they will not be able to resist our strong attack from behind." At this time, they sent hundreds of reinforcements from the east bank every day, firstly, to express their determination and stance to fight to the death to the end and not to retreat from us and their generals on the west bank, and to stabilize the morale of the army, but also to make us dare not advance too fiercely; on the other hand, I think most of the reinforcements sent over are the children of small tribes who are estranged from the Tuoba Department and are not very obedient, so they will lose more money, which will facilitate the Tuoba Department to directly annex these small tribes in the future......

The strong brute may not be willing to be tamed, but if the tribe wants to expand, women, children and children will sometimes be more important, Chen Hai has been advocating watching the battle in the Northeast Peak these days, can he still see through these strange things?

"Day, so many tricks?" Qi Hanjiang said scoldingly, he was okay to lead the troops to fight, but there were not many other flowers.

**************************

It took more than a month to go back and forth, and under the uninterrupted attack of the enemy, the dam at the mouth of the Dongpo Gorge was still tenaciously built to a height of 15 or 6 meters.

It is also strange to say that during this period of time at the northeast foot of Hailing Plain, there were a few sporadic light rains, caused by the dam, but there was no chance to store water, but this is also irrelevant.

Early in the morning of this day, Tuoba Banner was preparing to arrange today's offensive in the big banner, when he suddenly heard a cheer from the southeast.

Tuoba Qi walked out of the big tent, and saw that his father Tuoba Hao also flew from the east bank at this time, standing in the open space of the camp with Zuo Yang and others, and saw that above the stone dam built by the Iron Cliff Department, a more than 100-meter-long Qinglin Jiaolong flew up hideously......

During this time, Cangyi did not directly participate in the war, and has been sitting in the northeast peak, at this time, he suddenly saw his real body, Tuoba Qi was also frightened, thinking that this demon Jiao really wanted to rush down angrily, only if he joined forces with his father Tuoba Hao, it was possible to resist one or two.

But if this demon Jiao really wants to go out, it either means that the enemy army will organize a big offensive today, or it means that the enemy army will have other big moves.

Tuoba Qi was shocked, and saw that the area around Cang's body was gradually shrouded in a layer of misty green qi, and gradually, the wind began to whirl, the sky darkened, and a cloud of rain quickly condensed and formed. At first, the rain clouds were only a few hundred zhang in the direction, but the storm blew bigger and bigger, and the rain clouds became denser and denser, turning faster and faster, but with a cup of tea, the cloud extended for more than ten miles, completely covering the northeast peak.

Dam construction, rain and precipitation?

Tuoba Qi looked at his father in horror, he thought that the Iron Cliff Department would wait for the dam to be built higher before starting to store water, but he didn't expect this to start.

At this time, Tuoba Banner had already thoroughly studied the topography of the northeast peak, and knew that if the dam at the mouth of the gorge was built 20 meters high, the iron cliff part would be able to store water on the halfway of the eastern slope to form a lake with a water surface of more than 500 acres and a height of 15 or 6 meters.

Such a large amount of water, if poured down from the mouth of the gorge, would form a monstrous flood in a narrow canyon of more than thirty miles, but it was not enough to completely wipe out their large camp.

During this time, in addition to trying to break through to the two flanks, they also dug a wide ditch on the periphery of the camp that connected the Tong River to the east, and built a thick stone wall on the west side of the camp that could withstand the impact of the flood peak.

The torrential rain poured down, filling the high lake with a width of more than 500 acres in one hour, but at this time, the rain clouds over the northeast peak showed no sign of dissipating at all, and the rain became more and more frenzied.

At this time, Tuoba Qi saw that the water level of the high lake was obviously higher than the dam, but it did not overflow, and it was still accumulating higher and higher, and at this time, the vest was half cold: Who in the Iron Cliff Department has such a strong supernatural power that can forcibly block millions of tons of lake water?

Flood Formation!

After Tuoba Hao cultivated the Dao Dan in his early years, he also cultivated into the appearance of the Yanzhou human race, traveled to Jinyan Zhuzhou, and knew that the Yanzhou sect valve was good at refining magic weapons and magic arrays, and the situation on the eastern slope of the mountainside must be in the dam that was built, and then lay down the water array, and forcibly block the lake water that was a large section higher than the dam, and once the water array was withdrawn, millions of tons or tens of millions of tons of lake water would be washed down several times or even dozens of times faster than the dam collapse.

Tuoba Hao's face was also pale at this moment, he thought that if it dragged on until the last moment, it was really impossible to withdraw the elites of the Tuoba and Kereh tribes to the east bank as soon as possible, where did he want the Iron Cliff Department to give them this time at all.

At this level of rain, in another hour, the lake will be thirty meters high -- how many people can they evacuate in one hour?

"Tuoba Hao, Tuoba Banner, can we talk about surrender at this time?" Chen Hai was dressed in a green robe, and stepped out from the top of the northeast peak, as if he was slowing down, and he crossed several miles of tiger sky in a moment, and stood in front of the dam at the mouth of the Dongpo Gorge, and said in a loud voice to Tuoba Hao and Tuoba Qi in the camp below.

The autumn wind blew the river and blew Tuoba Hao's arrogance.

He had faced a desperate situation of life and death countless times, but none of them made him feel so powerless as at this time, maybe he was really old.

Tuoba Hao stretched out his hand to stop the angry and restless generals left and right, sighed, took off the battle armor and sword, and took off a soul extinguishing ring obtained from Yongliang in the early years, handed it to Tuoba Banner to hold, and stopped the loyal guards from following, and he walked slowly forward alone.

Although Tuoba Hao is old, his mane is white, and his back is a little rickety, but he is almost two meters three or four tall, and the scars on his blue and black cheeks are staggered, which not only reveals his fierceness in the east of the Hanhai Sea back then.

His arms covered with green scales were still full of terrifying power, and there was a fierce light hidden in his slightly cloudy pupils, as if he was like a devouring demon tiger, and it seemed that he would pounce desperately.

"Although I don't know what to call the honorable driver, can the honorable driver call the shots in the affairs of the Iron Cliff Department?" Tuoba Hao stared at Chen Hai, who was two heads shorter than him, and asked in a loud voice.

"Tie Kun is on the top of the northeast peak, Patriarch Tuoba, do you want to run over and ask in person?" Chen Hai asked with a smile.

"It's not that the Tuoba Department can't surrender, but how can the Iron Cliff Department ensure that it won't backtrack?" Tuoba Hao stared at Chen Hai's eyes, Tuoba Banner was defeated in Yaoshan, but he didn't expect that an elite Terran combat force would suddenly appear in Yaoshan, nor did he expect the Black Yan Army to suddenly join the battle, compared to the surrender, he was more curious in his heart, who was this eye-eyed person? What was going on in Yaoshan?

"The Tuoba Department is still qualified at this time, do you want any guarantee from us?" Chen Hai asked.

At this moment, Tuoba Banner seems to be more than ten years old.

In addition to strengthening the fighting spirit on the surface and preaching the determination to fight to the death, the main purpose is to transfer the elites of the Tuoba and Kereh tribes to assemble along the riverbank little by little, so that even if one day, the Iron Cliff Department will build a dam, store it into a large lake above their heads, break the dam and release water, and the elites of the Tuoba and Kelie tribes will still have a chance to escape most of the ......

He didn't expect the last moment to come so quickly.

"I would like to put forward three conditions now: first, the Tuoba Department shall immediately destroy all the rafts hidden in the Baishui River, abandon all plans to rush across the Tong River, and immediately stop attacking the stone ridges on both flanks; second, hand over all the troops and horses requisitioned from the tribes on the west bank of the Tong River, and immediately disband or withdraw the reinforcements assembled on the east bank to Baishui City; and third, all the Yanzhou bitter slaves in the Kelie and Tuoba tribes will be immediately sent to Qinhaidu City for assembly. If these three points are achieved, the elites of the Kereh tribe and the Tuoba tribe will be able to step on the ice and return to the east after two months until the Tong River is frozen; especially the first point, there must be a moment of hesitation, after an hour, the water will pour down, and the Tuoba patriarch will not be surprised by my words......" Chen Hai said with a stiff face.

"......" Tuoba Hao wanted to cry without tears, he had been all his life, and he had not descended, and in his early years, he even lived under the command of the Kereh Department, but he never thought that one day, he would face no room for bargaining.

"......" Tuoba Hao swallowed hard, and asked unwillingly, "Who is Zunjia?"

"Patriarch Tuoba seems to be more concerned about who I am than the future fate of the Tuoba Tribe?" Chen Hai smiled, stretched out his hand to release an invisible barrier, isolating him from Tuoba Hao alone, and said with a smile, "Tianji Marquis Chen Hai has seen Patriarch Tuoba ......"

Although Tuoba Qi and they are more than 20 miles away, their six senses have reached the extremely deep realm of perceiving hundreds of miles, if they don't need additional prohibitions, they can hear the negotiation between Chen Hai and Tuoba Hao clearly, but only the last few words, so that they don't know who Chen Hai is, and they don't know what Chen Hai's last few words said to the old patriarch, which made the old patriarch suddenly age a few years old, and came back embarrassed.
