This year, the temperature in the upper reaches of the Yuma River has risen so fast that the snowmelt flood has obviously risen to the edge of the dam's capacity, and despite such flood diversion measures, the dam still has a tendency to stop the snowmelt, not to mention that the dam has fallen into disrepair, and in some places water continues to overflow the dam walls.

If this canal dam is broken, the snowmelt flash flood will inevitably rush down the mountain, and it will be a terrible disaster that will be out of control.

Thinking of this, Hu Dexing, the chief military officer of Shandong Town, was also secretly a little afraid, fortunately, the team of sharp posts found this place in time, and fortunately, Liu Juntao, the governor of the Xian, realized the danger, otherwise once this canal and dam collapsed, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Tiance Army would be wiped out with the Tatar army!

Hu Dexing did not hesitate, and immediately beckoned his five hundred iron cavalry soldiers to start acting according to the plan.

This time, the 500 soldiers were not fully armed, and none of them wore armor, but they only carried some war knives with them, which can be said to be semi-disarmed, but everyone carried a lot of tools, such as shovels, shovels, etc., as well as a lot of extremely thick ropes.

One of the generals asked, "Commander, do you want us to raise this canal dam?" But we only have 500 people, so we don't have enough people! ”

To resist such a terrible flood, let alone 500 people, 5,000 people is not enough. Until now, what everyone is doing here, only Hu Dexing himself knows, this is also Liu Juntao's order, until the last moment, the news must not be leaked, this is related to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of troops.

But now, there is no need to keep it secret, Hu Dexing said: "This time we are not going to raise the embankment, we are going to break the embankment!" ”

"What!" Everyone who heard it was shocked!

Hu Dexing obviously didn't seem to be joking, and waved his big hand with a firm face, and said, "Let's do it!" ”

Everyone looked at each other, still a little hesitant, after all, this matter sounded too extreme, you must know that the big camp is downstream.

Everyone asked in unison, "Boss, what's going on?" ”

"This is a good opportunity for us to build on great achievements. ”

"Great work?"

Hu Dexing led them to stand at the dam and looked down the mountain, and said: "From here, you can't even see the course of the Yinma River, but if we dig this dam down, where do you think the water will rush?" ”

The general thought for a moment and said, "There is a small stream not far away, but I am afraid that the big water will rush down that tributary and then join the Yuma River...... Ah! Suddenly rushing down such a big water, I don't know if the Yuma River can withstand it. ”

"You're right, the Yinma River is a typical grassland river, and the riverbed of the Yinma River is too shallow to withstand it."

When everyone heard this, their faces changed, and the general shouted: "The camp will be drowned!" ”

Everyone exclaimed.

Hu Dexing shook his head and said, "No! After we set off, the Governor led the army to retreat secretly, and it is estimated that we have now reached a safe high ground. But what do you say will happen to the Tatars stationed on the north bank of the Yuma River? ”

Speaking of this, everyone's faces were excited, and everyone looked eager to try.

Hu Dexing waved his hand and said, "Do it!" ”

The general rushed to the front, waved the hammer in his hand and dug the dam, Hu Dexing was also startled when he saw this, and hurriedly stopped him: "What are you doing, don't you want to die!" "If this dam bursts and the water rushes out, these 500 people will drown first!

Everyone was also frightened into a cold sweat, and they stopped one after another, waiting for Hu Dexing's instructions.

Hu Dexing first looked at the surrounding terrain and found a place to avoid the water, and then ordered everyone to take out ropes and tie them to the thickest roots and rocks around, and each of the 500 people tied one around his waist to prevent the incident from being suddenly washed away by the flood.

Then Hu Dexing ordered everyone to start digging the dam, first cutting the canal dam by one layer until it was only one or two inches thick, and the huge water on the side of the dam wall was already ready to move, and it could break the dam at any time and swallow everyone on the mountain.

Hu Dexing and his 500 men were really trembling and walking on thin ice when they came here, for fear that an accidental flood would fall from the sky.

Look at a large area of canals and dams have been thinned, everyone is oozing a cold sweat, just now, as long as there is a careless, digging through even one of the points, it is possible for the flash flood to burst out suddenly.

Although they all had large ropes the thickness of a baby's hand tied around their waists. But in the face of such a powerful impact of water, even trees can be uprooted, let alone people. At such a distance, it was really drowned in a torrent, and 500 lives were lost at the same time.

"Alright, final blow, let me come."

Seeing that he had almost dug it, Hu Dexing ordered most of the people to hide in the cave where they could avoid the water, leaving only himself and a few helpers, and among the tools he brought this time was a huge hammer.

Hu Dexing took a deep breath, swung the sledgehammer suddenly, and smashed it heavily on the dam, poof, the dam wall collapsed, and there were cracks with a diameter of several feet around it, Hu Dexing roared again, the sledgehammer was raised again, the canal dam pierced a small hole, and a cold water gushed out! Tremendous pressure spreads rapidly from this small spot. The crack passed away at an alarming speed.

"Let's go!"

Hu Dexing and several of his men rushed to the cave, but only halfway through the escape, the flash flood roared and fell from the top!

"They should succeed!"

Liu Juntao was a little irritable at this time, looking at the sky with continuous heavy rain, and secretly thinking in his heart.

At this time, the Tiance army camp has been transferred to the high ground, and has made various preparations, although I don't know how big the water potential will be, but the greater the destructive power of the water potential, even if it is flooded in the Tiance army camp, it doesn't matter, after all, the safety of hundreds of thousands of troops can basically be guaranteed, but the Tatar battalion that bears the brunt will face a greater disaster, at least it will lose its troops.

Behind Liu Juntao, Liu Zi'an and Yan Hu stood side by side, the two of them were the same as Liu Juntao, they didn't know if Hu Dexing would succeed, and they were also a little anxious.

Suddenly, there was a dull, unusual sound, approaching at a very fast speed from a distance, and that direction was to the west.

Liu Juntao, Liu Zi'an, and Yan Hu looked at the west at the same time, and the eyes of the three of them were full of excitement.

At the same time, on the north bank of the Yuma River, the Tatar battalion.

"What sound, what sound?"

In the large camp of the Tatar tribe, people kept running out, looking to the southwest, and between the valleys and plains there, it seemed as if a fierce beast had rushed out, but what kind of beast in the whole world could make such a sound that shook the earth?

At this time, there was a disturbing sound from the southwest, and he was also alarmed, and walked out with a few guards, and suddenly heard a strange sound from the south, and he couldn't help frowning, and immediately sent someone out to see what was going on.

Although the riverbed of the Yuma River is shallow, not as deep as the big rivers in the Central Plains, due to the increase in the amount of snowmelt this spring, it is no longer possible for cavalry to cross on horseback, and it is even more impossible for infantry to rely on rafts or boats to cross, so there is no need to worry about the camp here.

But the ominous voice grew louder and louder, until at last it reached a point where he could not ignore it, and at this time he stood on a high place in the camp, and looked into the distance with his men, and the Tatar soldiers around him were also constantly talking.

"What is it? Could it be that there are some strange beasts in this place of the Drinking Horse River? ”

Someone else said, "No, no, it could be thunder in the valley." ”

But is that the thunder like that?

No, no!

Finally, an old veteran from the mountainous area thought of something, and suddenly cried out in great fear: "Oh my God, that voice, it's a torrent, a torrent!" A flash flood has erupted! ”

The Tatar soldiers around him were stunned when they heard this, and before they could react for a while, the veterans of the mountains had already begun to flee for their lives, and those people said, "You have to hurry up!" Get out of here! It's too low, it's going to die! ”

When a general saw that they were disturbing the morale of the army, he rode over and questioned him, and the rumbling sound rushed from the height of the southwest, and came faster than any thousand miles of horses!

It was only at this time that he understood from the veterans that he thought it might be a flash flood, and the terrible flood had bypassed the last layer of mountain barriers, entered the Yima Pingchuan around the Yuma River, and broke into the field of vision of all the Tatars!

"Flood, flood! There really is a flood! ”

"Torrent!"

The huge flood descended from the current, and from a distance it looked like a beast devouring everything, and swept along the Yuma River all the way east, towards the Tatar camp.

Seeing this, the 200,000 iron cavalry army of the Tatar department was all stunned, and the army was so frightened that it lost its ability to move for a moment, and then everyone rushed to get on their horses and fled.

The same is true of the horse, under the protection of the guards, he will turn over his horse, and he will ride his horse and run away, when this catastrophe is coming, where is the 200,000 iron cavalry army still organized?

But it's come to this, and where is it too late!

The gentle slope of the south side is not the slightest obstacle, and the difference between the height and the drop instead contributes to the speed of the mountain flood downward, at this time, with the broad and vast flood into the Yuma River, the strong impact force in the Yuma River stirs up a huge wave calculated in zhang, and the water potential is to the east and west of the two ends of the river at the same time, to the east is to rush downstream, and to the west is to go against the current to make the river rush.

However, the wide and shallow riverbed could not completely dissipate the mighty momentum of this torrent, the water sprayed ashore with inertia, and only a few seconds of effort flooded the north bank of the Yuma River for several miles, the Tatar camps were already in the vast water, followed by the water force upstream of the backlash, with the upstream of the river rushed back, and the follow-up force of the torrent burst out of the second wave, this wave of the wave actually rushed straight to the main camp of the Tatar department, the huge camp gate could block the soldiers and horses, but could not completely stop the water, A cold flood poured in through the cracks in the camp gate, turning a dry gate into a water gate.
