After some inspection, Ling Yu didn't find anything wrong, so he didn't look at it anymore, and returned to Kaifeng with a group of people, and when he returned to the camp, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon, and he went to check the manufacturing of the earthen wall rune spirit guide, fortunately, this kind of spirit guide is very simple, so it is not difficult to make it, and dozens of people have worked together to make hundreds.

However, according to the size of the river embankment that Ling Yu knew when he inspected just now, a few hundred was probably not enough, so he ordered the craftsmen to work overtime to make sure that there were at least two thousand spirit guides that could be used after two days.

After explaining the matter, Ling Yu pondered whether he should move the camp to the vicinity of the river embankment, and came here for two days, although everything was normal, but it was full of strangeness, coupled with the hint given by the emperor before departure, he vaguely felt that something should happen, but he didn't expect anyone to dare to do such a thing, but out of instinct for danger, he ordered to pull out the camp at dawn tomorrow and camp near the river embankment.

"Are you sure? Did he really only bring two hundred and fifty sergeants? Yan Zhongdao asked.

"Yes, the others are craftsmen and the entourage, as for what the craftsmen are doing, it is unknown to the subordinate and other workshops that cannot get close to their camp, and the Qincha himself mentioned a piece of equipment, depending on his meaning, maybe it was used to strengthen the river embankment." The spies who were in the group today replied.

"Mr. Yan, I'll just say it, he's just a variable, he got that appliance to reinforce the embankment, he must be sure, yesterday I said kill them, you still don't agree, I don't think it's better to kill them tonight." Zhao Botao said sarcastically.

"Second son, yesterday's situation is really inappropriate, but today, I think it's better to go directly to destroy the embankment, they are stationed outside the city of Kaifeng Mansion, there is still some distance from the embankment, and when we finish the work, they may not be able to catch up, at that time, the flood will be rushed, they are all finished, and there is no need to kill them." Yan Zhongdao stroked his beard with his hands, and said confidently.

"Then do it, wait for the camp after dark, and go to the embankment." Zhao Botao waved his hand, looking very heroic.

The time soon came to more than ten o'clock in the evening, and it took at least five hours to walk from Zhao Botao's station to the river embankment, and when they got there, it was almost three o'clock in the morning, which was just the time for them to do things, so more than 1,500 people did not use torches, and quietly went to the river embankment under the low orders of the officers.

Ling Yu was about to rest, when suddenly a bad premonition hit, Ling Yu walked out of the camp, looked up at the gloomy night sky, and sighed quietly: "It looks like it's going to rain heavily again, I hope I can withstand it tonight, I will pull out the camp tomorrow and install some earth wall spirit guides first." ”

At three o'clock in the morning, Zhao Botao and his party arrived at a dense forest two kilometers away from the embankment, not that they didn't want to do things in the past, but now the rain is too strong, and even the big ones are a little difficult to move, everyone walked all night, the whole body was wet, the cold is not cold, but the road is not easy to walk, so it is very tired.

Seeing this scene, Yan Zhongdao suggested that Zhao Botao camp on this and wait for the weather to improve before acting, Zhao Botao was also made weak by this weather, so he agreed with kindness, but this place was too close to the embankment, although he camped but did not dare to make a fire to dry his clothes, everyone had to set up a tent and wear wet clothes, and sleep with clothes, because everyone was very tired, so even in such a bad environment, everyone fell asleep quickly.

The next day, the weather was already bad, and the rain had already decreased a lot, but Zhao Botao and the others couldn't act during the day, so they had to continue to lurk and wait until night.

Ling Yu took a company of soldiers and his entourage to the embankment, Lin Ou was immediately anxious when he saw this, but he knew that Zhao Botao and others had gone over there to lurk last night, this will Ling Yu pass, what should I do if I encounter it, it is daytime now, and many things can't cover it.

However, no matter how Lin Ou persuaded him, Ling Yu still insisted on passing, and Lin Ou had no choice but to send someone to take a shortcut to inform Zhao Botao in private.

Ling Yu felt more and more that the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of buildings, and he was even more sure of what Lin Ou was hiding, but he didn't ask, he had confidence in his own people.

When the group arrived, it was already noon, set up camp in the open space one kilometer east of the embankment, hastily ate lunch, Ling Yu ordered people to prepare utensils, allowed to go to the embankment, coincidentally, Zhao Botao's people were lurking in the dense forest less than three kilometers north of Ling Yu's camp, at this time Zhao Botao and others also received the news that Ling Yu came, because it was daytime, they were also helpless, so they had to secretly send some personnel to mix in the army stationed at the embankment to spy on intelligence.

The craftsmen in the camp were still in full swing to make earthen wall spirit guides, while Ling Yu took a hundred sergeants to the embankment and instructed the people to start installing earthen wall spirit guides on the embankment.

After being busy for several hours, he finally installed about a thousand earth wall spirit guides on the embankment, and then Ling Yu ordered people to load the spirit crystals, not to mention the large number, in fact, there are thousands of people who reinforce the embankment here, so it is also very fast.

I saw the white light flickering on the embankment, and then there were more earthen walls in front of the embankment, the original turbulent water that seemed to be the next moment before the embankment was firmly blocked, and now the rain is not too heavy, and the heavy rain is the time to test these earthen walls, seeing this, Ling Yu breathed a sigh of relief, at least temporarily stabilized, and then only need to add the earth wall spirit guide and replace the spirit crystal every day, the earth wall spirit guide will consume a spirit crystal a day, which can be said to be costly, but now this situation, it can only be so.

When the spies saw that the levee was gradually stabilizing, they silently retreated and hurried back to report the news.

"Made, I'll just say that he's a variable, and this variable is really coming, if we let him place a few more of those spirit guides, then how can we destroy it?" Zhao Bohan said irritablely. Book every day

Yan Zhongdao's face was also gloomy, Ling Yu's methods he didn't expect, he didn't expect the emperor to spend such a big price, according to the spies' report, each spirit guide needs a low-grade spirit crystal to drive, how much does it cost to go down to these thousands.

"Second son, we can't delay it any longer, it looks like his spirit guide was built here, and there aren't many of them, let's take him first tonight anyway, it just so happens that we are going to destroy the embankment, and we have to pass through their camp." Yan Zhongdao said fiercely with a fierce look.

"In this way, Mr. Lao Yan will arrange it." Zhao Botao calmed down a little and handed over the command to Yan Zhongdao.

"In this way, I will live up to the trust of the second son." Yan Zhongdao is right.

From the afternoon to the evening, the rain gradually became heavier again, Ling Yu went to inspect the embankment several times, and found that it was basically well controlled, so he no longer worried, and tomorrow he could produce a batch of earth wall spirit guides, which should be able to be installed safely, as long as it did not encounter the heavy rain like last night, there should be no problem.

It was already more than eight o'clock in the evening when he returned to the camp, seeing that the rain was gradually subsiding, Ling Yu was also a lot more relaxed, arranged the defense, and then sent a company and a platoon to act as scouts to spy on the news around the camp and the embankment, after all, this is not outside the city of Kaifeng Mansion, the terrain here is complicated, there are embankments, and there are dense forests, so naturally you should pay more attention, and after arranging it, you can also go to practice with peace of mind.

Speaking of cultivation, although Ling Yu has been very busy in the past few months, he has been cultivating more or less every day, and with the assistance of Xiao Ling, and now he is also in the middle of the fourth level of cultivation, he feels that he is too slack, and he must cultivate well when he is busy with this matter, and only when his cultivation is high can he make better things, such as a machine that automatically engraves runes.

At more than three o'clock in the morning, there was only sporadic light rain, Yan Zhongdao was relieved to see this, he could finally go to Ling Yu's camp and complete the things that Grandpa Guo had explained.

So he commanded the men and horses, found out of the dense forest, and walked towards Ling Yu's camp, although they were very careful and tried not to make any movement, but more than a thousand people, no matter how careful they were, there was still some movement, and they were soon discovered by a platoon of scouts, so they quickly returned to the camp to report.

Fortunately, it was close, Ling Yu soon learned the news and hurriedly sounded the assembly number, in the silent night sky, the sound of the assembly call was very abrupt, and it could be heard far away, Yan Zhongdao knew that he had been discovered when he heard the horn, so he ordered no longer to hide his tracks, and rushed towards Ling Yu's camp at an accelerated speed.

After a long period of training, the quality of the soldiers of the first company was naturally very high, except for the sergeants who were still scattered near the embankment to reconnoitre, they did not have time to rush back, and the remaining 230 people quickly lined up in the north of the camp, and then slowly marched towards Zhao Bohan's army.

Soon, the sergeant who was scouting in front brought back the information, and Ling Yu ordered all the sergeants to stand in a three-stage firing formation, and wait for the formation.

Yan Zhongdao also lit torches after giving the order to speed up, so soon, the soldiers of the company saw people hundreds of meters away rushing towards them with torches.

Ling Yu looked at the other party calmly, silently calculating the distance, while Luo Quan stood quietly beside Ling Yu with the command knife in his hand, waiting for Ling Yu's order at any time.

When Yan Zhongdao led the army to a distance of 100 meters, Ling Yu decisively ordered to shoot, Luo Quan took the order, waved the command knife, and shouted loudly: "Shoot." ”

After the soldiers of the first row finished shooting, they quickly withdrew from the gap in the queue to the last row to load, and the soldiers in the second row shot again, and then did the same, and so on, the three rows of soldiers continued to tilt the bullets forward.

Yan Zhongdao was stunned when the first row of gunshots rang out, watching the soldiers who rushed up fall to the ground in rows, with this gunshot, dozens of people fell, the key is that these soldiers are all wearing third-level rune armor, and they are all third-level spirit masters, and at the same time, they are also extremely frightened, is this the emperor's secret weapon? There are only more than 200 people, and more than 1,000 people on his side have fallen before they have even rushed to the attack range of the bow and arrow.

Zhao Botao was even more unbearable, so frightened that he stopped in the rear, and the hundred or so guards around him protected him to death, and he could only watch his soldiers go up to die.

Yan Zhongdao was a character after all, and after coming back to his senses, he quickly ordered the soldiers to slow down the impact, retreat and re-repair, and then organize the archers to fight back.

The order was not wrong, but the front rushed too fast, rushed in the front was less than 50 meters away from the gun array of a company, after receiving the order, everyone went back like a rout, the rout is contagious, for a while, the scene was chaotic, fortunately, Yan Zhongdao's level was not bad, 200 meters away from the gun array to stabilize the position, re-lineup, this statistic, scared Yan Zhongdao a jump, just now the charge, lost more than 500 people, after all, the first time to face the gun array has no experience, the loss is greater.

Stabilizing his mind, Yan Zhongdao organized the remaining soldiers, and then ordered them not to charge too closely to attract fire for the archers, and then ordered the archers to follow the charging infantry into range and release their arrows.
