The march was very smooth, and at the beginning, Wang Du was still a little cautious, afraid that there would be an ambush in front and a pursuer in the rear. But as he walked, he finally grew bolder.

It seems that the Jingzhou army really did not deploy troops in the south, and he saw through their suspicious formation and jumped out of their circle.

In this case, there must be chasing soldiers behind, and the Jingzhou army will definitely not let nearly 50,000 people go south, and the strength of 50,000 people is enough to destroy their imperial power.

The king thought that he was not wrong at all, for the scout's words immediately confirmed his thoughts. The scouts came to report that a large number of pursuers had been found in the north.

"Now chase a bird, can they catch up? Order the whole army, advance at full speed, get rid of them from a distance, and in five days, you must go straight to Xiangyang!"

So the whole army began to run, did throw off the pursuers, and arrived at a valley, relatively speaking, this valley is a relatively wide valley in the Shunan Mountains, and it is also a rare valley without water, and trees grow, all of them are some barren farmland and wild grasslands, a handful of scattered some farmhouses, but all are empty, it can be seen that the people in Jingzhou have indeed moved south.

This kind of place with a wide field of vision, sparse vegetation and equality, is the most suitable for camping, and he has been running for a night and a half with his subordinates, and has thrown off the pursuers far away.

In fact, it was already time to set up camp and rest, but I didn't find a suitable place to camp, so I had to take them for a long run. After finally finding this good place, the king ordered that the camp should be set up in place to rest.

One of the biggest advantages of setting up camp in this place is that it is more convenient to burn firewood, and directly demolish those ownerless houses, and the thatch and rafters on them can be used to burn.

So these Cao soldiers happily dismantled a lot of wood, lit a huge bonfire, and began to boil water to make rice, and roasted the clothes that were not easy to dry and became slimy because of sweat in the humid air.

They even found a lot of dry ground, removed the fire, and pitched their tents on it, and when they had eaten and drunk enough, they were so sleepy that they fell asleep.

Only the young, strong, and energetic soldiers carefully selected by the royal capital were still patrolling and guarding in case of an ambush attacking the camp nearby.

In fact, the fact that the king went all the way south without encountering any troops to stop him still made him a little puzzled, so he had to be careful.

Everything has been arranged, although the body is very tired, but Wang Du feels a little faintly uneasy!

He couldn't sleep, so he had to go to the camp, and encountered a rare good weather in Jingzhou, and the moon was empty this night, so Wang Du sat outside the road and drank water, which was supposed to drink some wine, but due to the rapid march, there was no such thing in the army now......

In fact, it has been a period of time since the royal capital went south alone, and the grain carried by the grain and grass baggage battalion was not much at this time.

They originally thought that they would eat the enemy, but who knew that now the entire land of Jingzhou is cleaner than the licked, almost all the people are gone, and there are only many empty houses left along the way, except for burning firewood, which are useless at all.

Fortunately, in the land of Jingzhou, the forests are luxuriant, there are more flying beasts, when there is no war, everyone went out to hunt, and obtained some meat as a supplement, so that everyone will not be hungry, and the food carried is still more than ten days.

It's just that Jingzhou is too wet, and although a lot of measures have been taken, these grains have already shown signs of germination. If you don't eat them, you might turn them into wheat sprouts.

At this time, the food is the real food, put the wheat directly into the crockpot and cook it, add a little salt, chew it and swallow it.

When Wang Zhirong came to this world, he saw those who ate military rations, and felt that this method of eating wheat was a little incredible.

However, Wang Du never thought so, he thought that it was only right to eat wheat in this way.

Wang Du drank water to the moon like this, chewing a little boiled wheat in his mouth, feeling groggy on the one hand, and unable to sleep on the other.

Maybe the whole army, the only one who can't sleep is him, even when he greeted the door, most of the guards who walked around with halberds closed.

The king heard the roar of ten thousand galloping horses!

"Oh no, I really fell for it!" Wang Du Huo Ran stood up and roared: "Enemy attack!"

At this time, those who were patrolling and guarding finally heard the sound, and the horn whistled.

"That's not right!" Wang Du prepared his clothes and armor, picked up his gun and mounted his horse, and pondered, "Cavalry has always been the weakness of the Jingzhou army, that is, their thin horses and those weak cavalry are not enough to make such a big movement!"

"Report ——!"

"Speak!"

"General, it's not the enemy coming, it's a flood!"

"Floods? What's the point of a flood in such a wide valley? When we set up camp, didn't we try to set up camp on higher ground? How many floods can there be in this world to fill such a large valley? Drowning us? So what are you panicking, go and give orders, the soldiers on duty in the first half of the night are waiting solemnly! Sleep for the rest! In such a big valley, playing with me, I really don't know what Shu Han, a general, has in his head!" As soon as Wang Du heard that it was a flood, his heart was not panicked.

In fact, as expected by the royal capital, the roaring water flowed from a low place to the other end of the valley, and did not affect the royal army.

The Jingzhou army's tricks have been used, and it is such a clumsy trick, Wang Du's heart is not panicked at all, he dismounted, and he actually felt a little sleepy.

"Come on! Command the generals on duty to prevent the enemy from attacking the camp! Don't pay attention to the flood, and if you are invincible, don't wake up the general!"

"No!"

After the messenger was gone, Wang Du fell asleep as soon as he lay down on the couch.

It wasn't until the next day, when it was dawn, that he was called up.

"Why is there an enemy?"

"General, there is no invincible feeling! It's just that the water is getting higher and higher, and it has already flooded our camp! Look!"

Wang Du looked down and saw that there was already a foot of water on the ground. Are there a lot of people up ahead? Aren't the people of Jingzhou all coerced to move south?

Because of a rumor, Cao Cao wanted to slaughter Jingzhou, so Jingzhou evacuated all the people......

"How can the water rise so much in such a wide valley?"

"Presumably the enemy released water upstream and blocked the water downstream! That's not right, it takes a lot of people to do this! ”

"With such a wide valley, how big of a dam do they have to build to stop the water?"
