Chapter 899: The Wonderful Use of Hot Spring Water

The flying snow covers the earth like cotton wool, and as far as the eye can see, there is a vast expanse, and the heaven and the earth are connected, and it is full of white snow.

The snow made the old horse lost, and the Emperor of Chu and the generals fell into doubt, and the howling cold wind blew over them, and the flying snow hung on their black hair.

Emperor Chu's heart moved, the compass and telescope swept out of the dragon ring, clenched it in his hand, and a solemn look appeared on his face.

Less.

Emperor Chu took back the compass, glanced sideways at the generals, and said, "Edo City, in the southwest direction, you will follow me closely, and you will definitely be able to return to Edo City at noon." ”

The generals bowed their heads slightly, convinced of Emperor Chu's words, and spurred their horses away, disappearing into the vast snow.

At this time.

Under Edo Castle, Beixiong Tianmu and his army had already arrived at the city, and if it weren't for the heavy snow that fell overnight, they couldn't attack the city, and a bloody battle would have ended at this moment.

The Chu army that left from Sakura City led the soldiers under his command, all of whom had returned to Edo City, Bai Qi, Lu Bu, Ran Min, Zhang Fei, Dian Wei, Wang Yanzhang, Li Guang and others, all standing on the city at this moment, last night Emperor Chu did not return overnight, his whereabouts were unknown, life and death were at a loss, the generals had not slept all night, and now they were looking at the Fusang soldiers who were camped outside the city, and they were even more worried about the safety of Emperor Chu.

"General Bai, I'm afraid that all the troops of the Fusang Empire outside the city, it seems that they want to fight a decisive battle with our army, and now the emperor's whereabouts are unknown, and the defenders in the city are only 100,000 people, if there is a war, our army will not have an advantage."

Lu Bu's powerful voice spread, Bai Qi's expression was solemn, but he couldn't see the slightest worry, and a deep and deep voice sounded.

"General Lu, the weather is bad, and the heavy snow doesn't know when it will stop, even if the Fusang soldiers gather under the city, they won't dare to attack the city for a while."

"The generals can take a look at the terrain outside the city, the place near the city is slightly steep, if you attack the soldiers of Fusang with water, what do the generals think?"

"Water attack?"

"How to attack by water, I hope General Bai will explain!"

The generals were puzzled, and their eyes stayed on Bai Qi, the reason why Bai Qi can be called the god of killing and the god of war is because his thinking in battle is different from that of other generals.

First of all, the Baiqi War did not take the siege of cities and land as the sole goal, but the idea of annihilation warfare with the main purpose of destroying the enemy's vitality.

Regardless of the military, political, national situation, or even the geographical environment of the place where the battle is fought, he must make precise calculations, and he will be able to know victory or defeat without a fight.

Now that he has analyzed the geographical environment outside Edo City, coupled with the help of bad weather, Bai Qi feels that it is really heaven to help the Chu army, and the method of water attack is easy to break the enemy.

"As everyone knows, the sky is cold, and the dripping water turns into ice, and if we bring the water outside the city, we can easily slaughter the 400,000 troops of Fusang without a fight."

"That's right, General Bai's plan is really magical, when it meets the water, it turns into ice, even if it can't swallow all the Fusang soldiers, there is a thick layer of ice on the ground, smooth and difficult to climb, and their war horses can't move forward at all."

Ran Min echoed his words, bowed his head lightly, and said: "That's right, the war horse can't move forward, and then Ben will have his own clever plan, which can let my army go out of the city to kill the enemy." ”

All the generals agreed with Bai Qi's strategy, but there was another problem that made them fall into a dilemma, the method of water attack is very good, but where does the water come from?

The demand for water made the generals fall into a dilemma, and they couldn't help but have a headache, the snow was flying, thousands of miles of ice, except for the East China Sea, the water of other small rivers was already frozen, and it could not cause any blow to the enemy soldiers of Fuso.

"General, a total of 120 large and small hot springs have been found in the city, and the spring water is bubbling and flowing, which fully meets the needs of the general."

A soldier of the god guard stepped forward to report, Bai Qi chuckled indifferently, glanced sideways at the generals, and said with confidence.

"The water is coming!"

"The generals only need to order the soldiers under their command to pour all the hot spring water in the city into the city, and it is believed that it will not take long for the 100,000 soldiers to carry the water into a river, and the hot spring water will be boiling hot, so that it will not freeze too quickly, and it will flow to the Fusang soldiers' barracks."

When the generals heard this, they were amazed, and they all admired Bai Qi's resourcefulness, and after receiving the order, they did not stop at all, and quickly rushed to the city, gathering soldiers to start transporting the hot spring water in the city to the city.

The Chu army in Edo Castle was in full swing, and in the enemy camp of Fuso outside the city, Beixiong Tianmu looked at the heavy snow flying outside the city, raised his hand and drank the sake in front of him.

"This ghost weather is really delaying our army's major events, the snow does not stop, and our army is stationed here, it is completely useless."

"The general doesn't have to worry, the Chu army is at the end of its rope, and when the snow ends, it will be the day our army breaks the city."

The lieutenant generals echoed their words, but Beixiong Tianwu always felt that his heart was not steady, and he did not kill all the Chu army in one day, and he was worried that the Chu army would regroup and counterattack.

...........

Time slipped away, and the Chu army in Edo City found huge wooden barrels and utensils, and began to store the hot spring water on the city, the heat was curling, and the whole city seemed to be in the clouds, and the Fuso scouts who spied outside the city didn't know what was happening in the city, and they still didn't care.

It wasn't until noon that Emperor Chu and his entourage appeared ten miles away from Edo City, just in time for the army led by Zhuge Liang to meet, and they stalled and waited for Zhao Yun to bring people back.

Zhao Yun was ordered to go to Edo Castle to check, and Emperor Chu guessed that Fuso's 400,000-strong army would choose to attack Edo Castle after defeating the Chu army, because even he would deploy it like this.

Less.

Zhao Yun led ten Iron Eagle warriors back, and he told Emperor Chu about the gathering of enemy soldiers in Fusang outside the city, and also mentioned that smoke was rising from the city, and Edo Castle was still like the immortal pavilion in the heavenly dome, haunting with a thick mist.

Hear the words.

Emperor Chu and Zhuge Liang looked puzzled, the snow was flying, and a thick fog appeared in the city, what were the generals in the city doing?

"Kong Ming, Yue Fei, and Yuan Ba, the three of you will go to Edo Castle with me to find out, and the others will continue to stay here."

The three of them were ordered to follow the back of the Emperor of Chu and gallop towards Edo City, and when they were still thousands of meters away from the city, in order to prevent the sound of horses' hooves from startling the snakes, the Emperor of Chu and the three of them dismounted and walked forward.

Crumb.

At the foot of Edo Castle, behind a snow-covered hill, the three emperors of Chu returned from the Fusang army not far away, staring at the city that lingered in the mist.

"Your Majesty, this smoke is not formed by combustion, but like water mist when bathing!"

Zhuge Liang squinted his eyes slightly, the cold wind roared by, his temples fluttered, and his voice of doubt sounded.

"Bathing mist?"

Emperor Chu muttered to himself, a gleam flashed in his dark eyes, and an excited voice sounded.

"I know, I'm afraid this is a strategy to break the enemy, and I will return to the army immediately."

Emperor Chu suddenly rose to his feet, turned around and left quickly, came to Chu Ya to take the reins in his hand, and jumped on the back of the horse.
