Since the plan was set, Fang Baihua has instructed hundreds of disciples to dig drainage canals. In order to make the impact of the water flow at the time of application sufficient, the width of the drainage channel should naturally be as wide as possible. However, hundreds of disciples dug for four or five days, and the aqueduct was only three or four meters wide.

According to the report from the detective disciples, Hua Shigang has been transported to Huai'an and is expected to arrive in the Hongze area this afternoon.

At this time, Fang Baihua, Fang Jie, Xu Ziling and others were also waiting near Hongze, planning for a long time, everything was ready, and the people within three miles downstream also coerced and lured him to leave.

Looking at the drainage canal, Xu Ziling said: "With this width, I'm afraid it's not enough to capsize and sink the fleet."

Fang Baihua squinted at him when she heard this, and she didn't speak.

Xu Ziling touched his nose helplessly, since he formed a cheap brother with the king of Guangping a few days ago, Fang Baihua had never given him a good face, no matter how he explained, Fang Baihua was still cold.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Xu Ziling said: "I think you can put some logs in the lake and sharpen the two ends, and then it will go down the river and crash into the fleet, what do you think of the result?"

Fang Jie stuck the halberd in his hand on the ground and gave a thumbs up with both hands.

Suddenly, Fang Baihua turned her head to look at him.

Fang Jie's face froze, he pulled back the halberd, and arched his hand: "I'll go and order." Say three steps and make two steps, and leave like a child.

Fang Baihua acted casually, but he also knew the priorities. looked at Xu Ziling and the others, began to assign tasks, and said slowly: "At that time, you and Fang Jie will contain the two envoys, remember, if you can not kill people, you will not kill people." If the officers and soldiers die a lot, the responsibility will fall on us and others, and if they all go back unscathed, they will naturally be punished. ”

Glancing at everyone again, Fang Baihua continued: "I am in charge of the overall situation, and I will not make a move unless necessary. Vice-Sect Master Yang is responsible for finding and transferring treasures underwater, and another priest is responsible for harassing the standing army, so you have your own duties to complete your mission.

The personnel were divided into four teams, Xu Ziling and Fang Jie led a team of 20 people, Deputy Sect Yang led 50 people, another priest led 50 people, and I left 30 mobile troops here to wait for the opportunity to support each group. After speaking, he looked at the crowd.

Several people hurriedly surrendered their orders. Xu Ziling didn't expect that Sister Baihua, who has always been casual, would be so capable at a critical moment, and the task assignment and personnel scheduling could be carried out in an orderly manner.

Fang Baihua waved her hand and asked a few people to leave, count the personnel separately, and get ready.

And Fang Baihua himself, holding a colorful flag, stood on a small slope. She told the disciple in charge of opening the gate that when the flag in her hand is planted on the ground, it is the time to open the gate.

It was autumn at present, and the water level of the canal was not high, so the hiding position of Xu Ziling Fangjie and the disciples in charge of harassment was not far from the river bank, but because the current would collide the boat and people downstream, their lurking position walked thirty steps downstream.

Everything is in place, everyone is quietly waiting. The canal is calm and calm, with the occasional bird playing by the river.

Time passed slowly, but fortunately, the weather was beautiful, and it was a crisp autumn season, and the people on both sides of the strait were only a little thirsty, but not tired.

I don't know how long later, suddenly there was a strange hissing in the sky, which seemed to be some special bird call.

The Manichaeans who heard the cry trembled violently and cheered up their spirits. Xu Ziling also noticed the changes around him, looking at the shadow of the boat that appeared in the distance of the canal, and seemed to understand why the Manichaeans were able to control their position.

It's really a clever method, and it can even make birds come as scouts, which makes people unguardable.

Xu Ziling couldn't help but shake his head, fortunately he was not an enemy, otherwise it would be really difficult to sleep at night.

Looking at the fleet that was getting closer and closer, some of the disciples in the harassment team came out, either with hoes or hanging baskets, and in groups of two or three pretending to be nearby people working here. In order to confuse the real with the fake, all the disciples wore the coarse cloth clothes of the villagers.

This made Xu Ziling not expect that Fang Baihua would be so thoughtful. If you can do this trick, the fleet will not be able to escape this catastrophe nine times out of ten.

And in the fleet, on a boat, a big man with a square Chinese character and a big face, wearing armor, said to a man wearing a felt hat on the side and a large cyan mark on the left side of his face: "Yang Zhizhi, I feel that something is wrong, the surroundings are so quiet, even the people can't see it."

The Qingyin man looked into the distance and said, "The royal envoy is too worried, you see, aren't there many people there?"

The square-faced man saw that sure enough, there were people working not far from both sides of the canal, so he relaxed his mentality.

After a long time, the fleet sailed into the Hongze area, and the Qingyin man suddenly saw a woman planting a colorful flag on the hill in front of him, and he was puzzled, and found that the woman was looking at him, and he suddenly felt bad.

But I heard the sound of water rolling in, and the sound became louder and louder. The man turned his head sharply, and found that the grass before was gone, revealing a ditch, and there was water flowing down the canal in the distance, and there was no end in sight.

The man was dumbfounded, and shouted loudly: "Everyone! Abandon ship and escape! ”

Everyone in the fleet also heard the sound, and heard the man's voice, and they all came to their senses and jumped off the ship one after another. Except for a few non-swimmers, everyone jumped into the water.

The two envoys, one of them grabbed a civil official who couldn't swim and swam to the shore.

However, the water was so strong that most of the soldiers could not escape to safety, except for two envoys and a few lucky soldiers.

The soldiers in the river were frightened when they saw that there were two pointed logs floating above the flood, and they all dived into the water and did not dare to show their heads.

The rushing water roared and swept the soldiers downstream along the riverbed, and the logs on the water crashed into the boats with a loud noise. The bilge of the ship broke and slowly sank to the bottom of the water, and the soldiers on the ship who could not swim also fell into the water, fluttering and shouting in the water.

The water comes and goes faster. In the blink of an eye, the water was restored to its original state, except that the boats were missing, and many soldiers were carried downstream by the current, and even if the water was good, they suffered a lot in the turbulent current.

But I saw that the people on both sides of the strait jumped into the water one by one to save the drowning soldiers.

This warm scene made many soldiers wet their eyes.

What a simple people.

At this time, the two envoys who had already gone ashore were surrounded by dozens of strangely dressed and masked people, one of whom was holding a Fang Tian painting halberd, which was very eye-catching.

The blue-faced envoy grimaced and said, "Who are you?" Dare to fight the idea of this flower stone gang? ”

The man holding Fang Tian's halberd said, "You are the blue-faced beast Yang Zhi?" Look at your pitiful appearance, why don't you call it a green-faced bird? ”

Xu Ziling, who was also wearing a mask on the side, couldn't help but slap Fang Jie, signaling him to talk less and hurry up.

Fang Jie nodded, waved his hand, and led everyone to rush towards Yang Zhi and the others.

Yang Zhi and the others abandoned the ship and left, without taking weapons, but now they had no blades in their hands, so they had to draw out their daggers for self-defense.

However, Yang Zhi and the others had neither weapons nor numerical advantages, so they were defeated most of them in an instant, but they were not killed, but they were just tied up.

Xu Ziling dealt with the envoy surnamed Wang. This big man has a big man but has no ability, he was knocked to the ground by Xu Ziling's three punches and two feet, and he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy and didn't dare to get up.

Xu Ziling couldn't help but laugh a little, and asked the two Manichaean disciples to tie him up, so he ignored him anymore.

On the other side, Fang Jie and Yang Zhi had a fierce fight, although Yang Zhi only had a dagger, it was difficult to pose a threat to Fang Jie, but he could defuse or dodge Fang Jie's attacks.

Fang Jie failed to take him down in dozens of moves, he was so anxious that he babbled and screamed, no longer kept his hand, his luck picked up, and he suddenly seemed to be a different person, and Yang Zhi was defeated and retreated.

Finding an opportunity, Fang Jie's fierce halberd broke through Yang Zhi's defense and stabbed him in the neck.

Yang Zhi thought that he was going to die here, but Xu Ziling grabbed his shirt and pulled a step back, dodging the fatal halberd.

"Are you crazy? Forget hundred, how did the chief command? ”

Hearing Xu Ziling's reprimand, Fang Jie suddenly came to his senses, scratched his head, looked at Xu Ziling and said: "This kid has been dodging, so annoying, I was in a hurry for a while, and almost made a big mistake, but fortunately, Brother Xu is here."

Xu Ziling glared at him. He suddenly knew that he had exposed Xu Ziling's surname by mistake, and laughed a few times awkwardly.

On the side, Yang Zhi knew that his skills were not as good as others, and when he saw that they were not ready to kill him, he no longer resisted and let them be restrained.

In the end, the escort team was tied up in one place, except for a few unlucky ones who couldn't water and drowned. Guarded by Xu Ziling and others.

Two hours later, the sky gradually darkened, and all the treasures hidden in the flower stone gang had been removed.

I heard the strange hiss from the sky again.

Fang Jie patted Xu Ziling on the shoulder when he heard the voice: "Let's go." Everyone left like this, and they no longer cared about Yang Zhi and the others.

A first-class master, if there is no Xu Ziling and others to take care of him, how can he be restrained by a rope.

At this time, at the gate of Jiangning City, a woman wearing a hat was walking into the city, and the woman's slender figure attracted many passers-by to stop and watch.

The woman stood in the street, looking around blankly.

Brother Xiao Ling, where are you?
