Chapter 534: Countdown
Zhou Heng didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly walked to King Ning.
He still admires King Ning very much, this person has just undergone major surgery, and he hasn't eaten anything, and he is sitting in danger at the moment, and he can't see the appearance of serious injuries at all, this posture is worthy of admiration.
"I've seen His Royal Highness King Ning!"
King Ning waved his hand and motioned for Zhou Heng to come closer.
"The people here will be able to come up soon, I don't know how to save those horses, do you have a plan?"
Zhou Heng paused, he really wanted to say that if someone came up, it would be a big victory.
However, Zhou Heng knew that these horses were the root of life, and the Datong garrison was not all cavalry, and these thousand horses were important war preparation materials, and they must not be given up lightly.
"Your Highness, people can be lifted, horses can't do it, I think we can take two steps, first send some forage down to ensure the survival of the horses, and a few people can be left to guard the horses below, so that the horses will not panic.
After that, either the road was dug to catch up with the surviving horses, or the dammed lake had to be dredged and the valley was followed by the same road. ”
King Ning thought about it and looked at Zhou Heng, after all, he had just heard Zhu Yunmo's report and knew the harm of the dammed lake now, so he couldn't help frowning.
"If this dammed lake is not disposed of, will it be more dangerous?"
Zhou Heng nodded, raised his eyes to look at Zhu Yunmo, and instantly understood that they had discussed this matter, Zhou Heng naturally had nothing to keep, and now this top of the mountain is the safest place.
"The dammed lake had to be disposed of, and when we came up, I had taken a closer look, and the location of the valley outlet on the east side, which was almost the same level as the cliff road, and where rockfalls and sediment were constantly falling, and the river would rise to overflow the dammed lake embankment in the evening.
At this time, the water and sediment will form a new mudslide and pour down, and the villages and fields at the exit on the east side of the valley will not be protected. ”
Zhu Yunmo seemed to want to say something, but King Ning stretched out his hand to stop him, and hurriedly said:
"You just said that the dammed lake must be disposed of, which means that we can artificially let the water flow?"
Zhou Heng nodded, he didn't expect that King Ning's insight was indeed different, and he suddenly discovered the key to the problem, and indeed the best way now is to divert, but this is also very dangerous.
"It can be done, one is for people to go up, put the blocked stones with ropes, and then manpower and flying balls work together to pull the stones down, so that there is a gap, the water flow will not be big at first, and gradually it will be big, but the people involved will be very dangerous.
Another way is to fly the ball over, and then drop our special earth mine, and blow up the place, which doesn't need people to go down, and it's relatively safe, but it costs money. ”
King Ning was stunned, what kind of loss this Fei Yinzi was, he didn't understand it for a while, Zhu Yunmo hurriedly waved his hand, he knew the matter very well, and quickly explained to King Ning:
"Father doesn't know, we have studied a lot of things to use with flying balls, there are incendiary bombs, iron eggs, and this earth mine, each of which costs a lot, Zhou Heng is just worried that this amount will not be less, so it is a waste of silver."
King Ning waved his hand, "If you have nothing to do, just use this latter method, we have the silver, and reducing casualties is the right way." ”
Zhou Heng nodded immediately, the owners are not afraid of wasting silver, what are we afraid of, besides, this thing is wasted, not only is it his own, there is also a son of the world.
"Okay, then I'll arrange it now, but it's best to wait until the time comes, after all, you have to make sure that the people are transferred first, otherwise it will be very dangerous to divert the water and stones to roll down."
King Ning nodded, very much agreed with Zhou Heng's statement, raised his eyes and looked around, there were more and more people rescued on the edge of the cliff, looking at it enough to be more than half, he glanced at Zhu Yunmo.
"Command the ten able-bodied men below, and throw all the dry rations to them, and let them take care of the horses, and in due time they may begin to dredge the river at the bottom of the valley, so that they may come out with them."
Zhu Yunmo hurriedly nodded, called Pang Qi and Pang Ba, and the two of them went to inform each group to prepare, just here Qu Ziping took a man in armor and ran towards Zhou Heng and them.
Zhou Heng hurriedly reminded that King Ning turned his head to look over and quickly stood up.
The other party had already approached at this time, and the man covered in armor, Zhou Heng recognized at a glance that this was the youngest son of the old general, and this person hurriedly gave a salute to King Ning.
"The forbidden army Zuo Xiaowei Zhonglang will visit His Royal Highness King Ning in Cangde Camp, and ask His Highness for forgiveness in the future!"
King Ning gave him a boost and smiled towards Cang Deying.
"Hurry up, Cangzhong Lang will work hard all the way, it is not easy for such a rapid march to be able to gallop quickly, this king is grateful."
Cang Deying was stunned, with panic on his face, you must know that when he was in the capital, he had heard rumors about this King Ning, especially when the left and right Xiaowei were controlled by General Su, and he was even more of King Ning's subordinates, how strict that person was, this King Ning naturally had nothing to do.
Hurriedly bowed, the attitude on his face was more humble, and he glanced at the people on the edge of the cliff, where there were hundreds of people.
"The last general is guilty, seeing that everyone in the army has already come up, are we too late?"
King Ning looked at the man and bowed slightly, since this person was Su Hexiong's subordinate, he naturally had no other thoughts, he hurriedly waved his hand and said:
"Don't say that, it's already sleepy to get here day and night, or you better take a rest, this king has sent the Datong army to clean up the village at the east exit of the valley, you can follow after resting."
Cang Deying hurriedly clenched his fists.
"Your Highness just ordered directly, there is no need to rest for your humble duties, we have already rested ten miles away this morning, and we can do it, please allow Your Highness to allow us to participate in cleaning up the people."
King Ning nodded, since he said so, there was no need to be pretentious.
"Okay, Pang Qi accompanied General Cangzhonglang to go together, with the general they have already gone to Gukou, there are many villages there, we want all the personnel to quickly evacuate to Tao'er Mountain, bring a few carriages, transport people with limited mobility by carriages, and blow up the dammed lake here in two hours."
Cangde Camp hurriedly knelt down on one knee, "The last general will take the order." ”
Pang Qi hurriedly clenched his fists, and ran towards the direction where the forbidden army was stationed with Cangde Battalion, two hours was really urgent, so many people needed to be relocated, and they were very scattered, and the task was arduous.
......
At the eastern foot of the horse tooth mountain, outside the valley.
Pang Qi and Cangde Battalion rode up to catch up with the general's team, Pang Qi hurriedly clenched his fists and asked:
"General Sui, I don't know how many of these villages have been cleared?"
The general tightened the reins, took a sip, looked a little annoyed on his face, and said with a whip pointing to the east side.
"Don't mention it, we just left 200 people to evacuate Zhengbianbao Village on the east side, but the people are not cooperating, and they are forcibly driving people away, and there are seven villages in a row to the southeast, and we are about to go over."
Cang Deying thought for a moment and said:
"We have a total of 1,700 people left on both sides, so 200 people are in charge of a village, and the remaining 300 people are scattered here to Tao'er Mountain along the way to set up road guides to ensure that all the people can not be scattered, okay?"
General Sui nodded, he hadn't thought about such an assignment, but it was naturally good to have someone to help, so he hurriedly hugged his fists.
"Or you think about it thoroughly, then each master will lead a team, if there is something that is not completed, the person who leads the team will apologize with death!"
Cang Deying pursed his lips and nodded vigorously, "Okay, that's the arrangement, the mud and sand flood will come in two hours, if you can't complete this task, you and I will have no shame to live, we are not familiar with this place, please follow the general to take charge of the road guidance, and I will take people to evacuate from the next five villages." ”
With the general's fist hugging his face, there was some excitement, and the martial artist didn't have any gorgeous words, just hugged his fist.
"You're tired, I'll give you five people, they are more familiar with this place, at least each village can be named, and the local dialect can also be understood, which will help you, it's over here, my old Sui invites you to drink wine and eat roast sheep, don't say goodbye!"
Cang Deying laughed, "Okay, that's right, but I want to drink Wuliangye!" ”
After saying that, Cangde Camp took Pang Qi and everyone to ride away, and the general was stunned, and turned to look at the people beside him.
"What is Wuliangye?"
