The plan to flood Xiapi has been decided, and all the generals are enthusiastic, and they can't wait to flood Xiapi City immediately. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Lian Po coughed and reminded: "Breaking the flood and flooding the city is indeed a clever plan to break quickly, but this plan is too ruthless, and the damage to Xiapi is also very great, such a prosperous city, if it is damaged like this, it seems a pity." β
The generals who were originally excited such as Fan Xu and others also calmed down a little, and they all began to feel a little pity for the damage to Xiapi, after all, this city is where Xuzhou Prefecture is located, and it is the most prosperous place in a state.
The potter looked resolute, and said coldly: "Even if Xiapi is prosperous, how can it be more important than the entire Xuzhou, if we don't break through this city as soon as possible, when Liu Bei re-enters Xuzhou, the situation will become unfavorable to us again, in order to take care of the overall situation, no matter what, we must also take Xiapi." β
The categorical words suddenly woke up the generals, and everyone's expressions became resolute again.
"The lord is reasonable, the land of the four battles in Xuzhou, there is Lu Bu in the north, Yuan Shu in the south, Cao Cao in the west, Lu Bu and Liu Bei who is close at hand, the enemy is around, we have no time to drag it out, we must take Xiapi at all costs." Lian Po also changed his mind.
The opinions of the civil and military forces reached an agreement on this, and the potters had no doubts, so they immediately ordered to mobilize the soldiers to break the Surabaya River in the starry night to irrigate Picheng.
In order to paralyze LΓΌ Bu, the potter did not dig the embankment with great fanfare, he first set up a new camp on the high ground around Xiapi, and mobilized manpower to dig the embankment at night.
Three days later.
At dawn, 17,000 soldiers all withdrew to the high ground, leaving only empty camps around Xiapi City, full of flags and straw men to confuse the enemy troops in the city.
The sun rises in the east, and the morning glow dyes the sleeping Xiapi City with a layer of gold.
On the high slope, the potter held his sword immediately, and the eagle stared at Xiapi City.
I saw that at the head of the city, the soldiers and soldiers on duty were still dozing, everything was still the same, they obviously didn't know, the soldiers and horses in the surrounding battalions had gone to the empty building, and only the empty camps full of straw men remained, and they couldn't have guessed that soon, a catastrophe would befall them.
"It's time to give us Lu Wenhou a bath......
The corner of the potter's mouth hooked a sneer, and suddenly the eagle's eyes shot murderous, drew his sword and pointed at it, and shouted: "Send a signal to Lu Ban and ask him to dig the river embankment for me." β
On the high ground, the red battle flags as high as several zhang waved on all sides, and issued an order to the Luban headquarters on the line of the river embankment.
Lu Ban is not only proficient in mechanical manufacturing, but also quite good at construction engineering, these days it is he who commands 2,000 soldiers to dig the river embankment little by little, to ensure that when needed, the embankment will be broken.
Lu Ban on the embankment saw the signal and immediately urged his subordinates to dig up the last line of embankment.
Half an hour later, the embankment in the northeast of Surabaya collapsed, and the turbulent Surabaya, with the supreme power of nature, swept towards the northeast of Xiapi City.
β¦β¦
Xiapi City, the Governor's Mansion.
In the entire lobby, there are empty wine jars everywhere, and the strong aroma of wine has even reached the pungent level.
Lu Bu leaned on the desk, his originally slashed and heroic face was full of drunkenness, and he was holding a wine jar in his arms, gulping wine.
Lu Bu, who dominates the world, is now like a man who has been hit, his spirit is sluggish, and he can only use wine to dispel his sorrows.
Tancheng was defeated, and the blow to him was too great.
With the advantage of troops, with such a sharp weapon as trapping the camp, and Yuan Shu and Yuan Xi as foreign aid, under such a huge advantage, he was defeated by the potters, and it was a fiasco, and he fled back to Xiapi in disgrace, but was surrounded by the potters.
The dignified number one military general in the world, Lu Bu among the people, Wen Hou, who made the princes of the world frightened, was defeated by such a fledgling boy as a potter, and the heavy blow to his dignity made Lu Bu collapse.
"Husband, don't drink anymore, if you continue to drink like this, sooner or later your body will be ruined." A silver bell-like sound of care rang in my ears.
Lu Bu subconsciously glanced up, but saw a woman in red, who walked in at some point.
The woman's long hair was black and bright, pouring down like a small waterfall, hanging down all the way to the slender waist that could not be grasped, and her delicate skin was as crystal as jade, like a jade carving, made of frost and snow.
That peerless face, just one glance, is enough to make any man's heart flutter and fall for it.
Lu Bu was unmoved, only glanced at it, continued to pick up the wine jar in his arms, raised his head and poured it, the wine slipped from the corner of his mouth, and he was wet, he was still unaware.
"Husband, why are you so troubled, don't you often say that victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, the potter is just a small victory, why should the husband be so depressed, borrowing wine all day long to relieve his sorrows."
The woman in red knelt beside Lu Bu and persuaded her softly, and her face was unbearable.
Lu Bu's body shook suddenly, as if he had suddenly sobered up a little, and the drunkenness in his eyes gradually began to disintegrate.
Syllable!
He slammed the wine jar on the ground, and said proudly: "You are right, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, although Benhou is defeated, but there are still thousands of soldiers and horses under his command, and Xiapi, the first strong city in Xuzhou, even if the potter boy has the ability to reach the sky, he does not want to break through Xiapi, and when he is under the old city, when the spirit is exhausted, it is the time when Benhou defends and attacks and wants the life of the thief." β
In an instant, Lu Bu seemed to have regained the domineering momentum of the world-defining, the number one martial artist.
The woman in red smiled, her delicate face bloomed like a rose, and her bright eyes were as bright as jewels, and she resurfaced with admiration and admiration, and smiled with satisfaction, "This is the Wen Hou in my heart, I believe that the potter will not be your opponent, and Xuzhou will still be yours sooner or later." β
The corners of Lu Bu's mouth raised a proud smile, and when he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a loud noise like a storm outside the hall, which was like a mountain flood bursting the embankment.
Lu Bu and the woman in red both changed their faces, and they didn't know what was going on, Lu Bu suddenly seemed to think of something, jumped up, and went straight to the outside of the hall.
The woman in red was still dazed, so she had to be suspicious and hurriedly followed.
The location of the Lower Pi Prefecture Pastoral Mansion is built on a high ground in the city, standing outside the main hall, you can overlook the entire Lower Pi City.
Lu Bu ran out of the gate uneasily, standing on the stone steps, the eagle eyes were anxious to find prestige, and suddenly saw that in the southwest direction of Xia Pi City, there was a big water on the edge of the vast land, which was surging against Xia Pi City.
Lu Bu changed color in shock and exclaimed, "Why is there a flood rushing to the city suddenly? β
As soon as the words fell, a scout rushed to the city and shouted: "Lord, the Tao army has broken the Surabaya River dam, and the water is flooding our city!" β
Flooded Pi!
A thunderbolt slammed down, shattering all the remaining drunkenness of Lu Bu.
In an instant, Lu Bu's majestic body, like an iron tower about to fall, staggered, took two steps back, and his expression froze in a moment of shock.
The woman in red beside her hurriedly stepped forward to support Lu Bu, and her flower face was also occupied by horror.
"Let go, Ben Hou doesn't need your help!" Lu Bu turned into anger in shock, suddenly shouted, and shook off the woman in red with all his might.
He was extremely powerful, and with just a slight flick, the woman in red was led back a few steps and almost fell to the ground.
Lu Bu didn't care about pity and cherishing the jade, so he hurriedly asked someone to bring the red rabbit horse, turned over the horse, and went straight to the city gate.
In the moment when Lu Bu rushed to the city gate, the waves had surrounded most of Xiapi, and the boiling water poured into the city from all the cracks, and soon the streets and houses of the city were all flooded.
The city was flooded with water, and in less than half a day, the entire Xiapi was already immersed in the torrent of Surabaya.
The city was so deep that all the streets were submerged, and the soldiers and civilians of the city could only climb to the roofs of their houses in panic to escape the raging water.
Even in the high state capital, the water was knee-high, but the main hall was not flooded.
On the city wall, Lu Bu looked down at the ocean of a city, and his majestic body was already shocked and frightened, completely out of proportion.
Just now, he had just rekindled his pride, and tried in vain to rely on the fortified city to defend until the potters were exhausted and retreated, and then took the opportunity to deal a fatal blow to the potters.
In the blink of an eye, the surging flood in front of him completely shattered his wishful thinking.
The city is flooded, and it won't take long for the city to be attacked by the Tao army, and the city will be flooded without the Tao army's attack, and under this terrifying blow, the people in the city will be panicked, how can they resist the attack of the pottery merchants.
"Hateful, am I going to die in the hands of the potter's pawn, I'm unwilling, I'm unwilling!" Lu Bu gritted his teeth and scolded and roared, extremely unwilling.
The military generals such as Zhang Liao and Gao Shun on the left and right all looked gloomy and were silent.
Lu Lingji was also shocked and hated, scolding the sky and scolding the potters for being vicious and deceitful, but she could only breathe evil anger.
Chen Deng looked at the vast water and was silent, as if he had reached this point, he was as resourceful as him, and there was no way to save the predicament.
In a gloomy and panicked atmosphere, Chen Gong, who had been silent, suddenly said: "The lord doesn't have to be discouraged, it has not yet reached the point of exhaustion, I have a plan, and I will be able to solve the danger of Pi." β
β¦β¦
Before I knew it, Xiapi City had been flooded for five days.
Under the impact of the flood, several places of the city wall of Xiapi have begun to collapse, and Lu Bu commanded the soldiers and men, women, and children in the city, carrying soil and stones, desperately trying to fill it.
Under the flooding, Xiapi City is like a stormy broken ship, as if it may sink at any time.
Lu Bu suffered from being immersed in water, but the potters outside the city drank wine all day long, and enjoyed the free show of the flooded city with great interest.
Now all the potters have to do is to wait for the water to recede slightly, and take advantage of the collapse of the enemy city and low morale, attack on all fronts, and break through the city of Pi in one fell swoop.
On that day, the sun set, the day's good show was over, and the potter drank the last sip of wine and returned to the camp.
Before he could even sit down in the big tent, a guard at the gate of the camp came and presented a letter claiming to have been shot by a man in black with an arrow, and the envelope was named to be presented to the potter.
"Men in black? Arrows? β
The potter was suspicious, and opened the anonymous letter, and his face changed slightly.
