Chapter 384: Flooding

"Xiangpu stayed here to preside over the breaking of the embankment, and the rest of the people took their headquarters and went down the mountain with me!" The eldest grandson Hong raised a finger at Li Tingzhi and said solemnly: "I will wait to go down the mountain to outflank, I must go over the mountains and mountains, although I have already made preparations and cut a convenient road between the mountains, but it will take at least an hour on the road, and you must complete the embankment within this hour, don't delay." ”

Li Tingzhi nodded hurriedly, he has a calm personality and is calculating, and there is no problem in completing this matter.

And the eldest grandson Hongyan took the rest of the Xichuan generals and hurried away.

Turning the hill, there was a passionate gong sounding, and the Chinese officers who had been ordered to gather the generals had already sounded their horns to summon the soldiers in the camp, and with the sound of the gong, in the camp that was hidden in the majestic mountain, a group of barbarians drove out, and under the leadership of their respective captains and captains, they divided their troops and rushed to gather on the flat ground everywhere and stand by.

When Changsun Hong came to the camp, time was pressing, he didn't even enter his tent, he directly tore off a cloth map he had with him, spread it on a stump at the camp gate, and arranged it on the spot.

"When the troops will be dispatched, because the mountain road is not conducive to the movement of the army, and our attack sites are distributed all over the river valley, we must act separately, and the kings should remember that their respective military strength is not very large, and they cannot be killed, so they will go deep into the enemy formation desperately, you must know that our goal this time is to defeat the lord, tens of thousands of enemy troops, we can't kill them all."

Everyone listened attentively and nodded incessantly, although these words have been repeated countless times in the daily meeting in the past two days, but before the battle, many generals still dare not despise it, and keep it firmly in mind.

"The Gundam Army, from Yaoling, to the west of Xunzhou, on the official road to the direction of Junzhou in the reverse charge, in the face of the enemy then fight, if there is a large force of enemy troops from the direction of Junzhou to support, can fight, the other side can not fight, on the mountain to avoid."

"Liu Quanjun, from the Tiger Mountain, went to the east of Xunzhou, and killed the enemy in the direction of Jincheng on the official road. You have to remember that because of the flood, the large Mongolian army under the mountain will inevitably go away like a panicked dog, and the poor will bite people even if they are scattered and urgent. ”

The two of them stood up in response with solemn faces and bowed.

Changsun Hong turned to a group of Shimen barbarian generals and said, "Gao Gao and Liu Cheng are responsible for fighting the fleeing routs on the periphery, while we are responsible for catching turtles in the water!" ”

There was a burst of laughter around, the atmosphere was lively, the pre-war slaughter was diluted, but Changsun Hong did not laugh, still said seriously: "As soon as the dam opens, the water that has been stored for ten days will rush down, the day is two days earlier than we expected, the amount of water is somewhat insufficient, but there is no choice, fortunately, there has been a lot of rain in the upper reaches of the river recently, and after the embankment is broken, I think it will wash the Mongolian army under the mountain to pieces, we go down, the resistance will not be very large." ”

"But after the flood, it will be a devastating blow to the Mongolian army, and it will also be disadvantageous to us, all the armies should be careful, I have a few reminders......"

In the camp in the woods, Changsun Hong seized the last time, emphasized the arrangement, and the barbarians gathered in a circle and remembered it carefully. Outside the camp, the Song army of the brigade lined up neatly, holding swords, full of spirit, obviously, in the mountains and forests for many days have already suffocated the hormones of these people, every day in the shadow of the trees to practice combat skills made these fierce men extremely uncomfortable, they are eager to go up on the vast battlefield, with knives for themselves and their families in exchange for honor.

After a moment of pre-battle meeting, the generals rushed out and rushed to the place where their subordinates were concentrated, and the standard-bearers waved the flag behind the commander-in-chief, and then a group of soldiers followed the flag and drove out of the dense forest.

Changsun Hong also set off with a group of people, he was wearing the same light leather armor as the barbarians, and the heaviest equipment was the iron helmet on his head, wearing bast shoes on his feet, carrying a bow and arrows on his back, holding a long knife in his hand, and holding a shield in his left hand.

If the mountains and forests are compared to a heart full of vitality, then the barbarians rushing out of it are like veins flowing in all directions, and they walk in the mountains, deliberately avoiding the nearest road.

This road is the route of the Jishui Waterway, and it is the easiest to walk along the river, but no one from here in the Song army walked, so they detoured from other places one after another, and only ran in their respective directions after walking horizontally.

Kublai Khan, who was under the mountain, didn't know this.

He lingered in the wooden wall for some time, carefully examining the huge craters created by the gunpowder, before getting up and leaving.

Liu Heima in front has led people to Jincheng, the Song people and the Jurchen soldiers dug a lot of pits on the way to escape after the breakout, Liu Heima took some brains to observe, it turned out that if you walked along the enemy's escape route, you would not step on the trap, so it was basically impossible to catch up with the Song people and Jurchens who fled in front.

Those Song and Jurchen people went up the mountain as soon as they slipped through the smoke, and disappeared into the dense forest after a few ups and downs on the hillside.

Kublai Khan rode forward along the road opened up by Liu Heima, he was thinking about two things, one was the recovery of Hanzhong, it seems that the Song people had seen through the Mongol army's attempt to attack Hanzhong by taking advantage of Junzhou, Hanzhong must have taken precautions, and to take this city, it will have to pay some price; Second, he wondered if there were gunpowder craftsmen from the Song people in Hanzhong City.

Kublai Khan was influenced by Yao Shu, Zhao Bi and others, while conquering the city, he paid great attention to collecting craftsmen from all over the world, and there were thousands of craftsmen who captured Helin from the west during the Western Expedition.

If you can find a gunpowder craftsman in Han, then set up a firearms workshop in Jingzhao Mansion on the spot, and face the Song people in the future, that calm...... Hahaha, Kublai Khan laughed out loud when he thought about it.

At this moment, Kublai Khan, who was on horseback, suddenly felt that the ground under his feet seemed to have a faint sense of trembling.

A large group of cavalry is approaching?

Kublai Khan glanced back, and did not have too much surprise, there were thousands of military horses from the Mongolian army and Han land behind him, and it was normal for cavalry to approach, here, it was absolutely impossible for the cavalry of the Song people to dare to appear, so there would never be an enemy.

The tremor was rapidly intensifying, and soon, the people around them noticed it, and they were all the same as Kublai Khan, disapproving, estimating that it would be their own people in the rear who were gradually getting closer.

But this tremor is getting more and more different minute by minute, and, as if it is not coming from behind, it seems to be ...... From the mountains.

Kublai Khan stopped his horse and looked out of the mountain in disbelief.

How could there be cavalry on the mountain?

The people around also looked up the hill and probed their brains, but the mountains were dense and they couldn't see anything.

A moment later, a mournful shout was heard from the direction of Jishui behind, and the shouter was probably the loudest in his life, so that Kublai Khan, who was a mile away, could hear it.

"Torrents! The flash flood has sent! ”
