The sun is shining, the head of Shaoling City, Xiyang Wang Yuwenwen is receiving the city's 'virtuous people', it is these junjie who know the current affairs to dedicate the city, the Anzhou army can easily enter the city, avoiding a large number of casualties.

At this time, the image is very important, so Yu Wenwen put down his trousers, changed into boots in advance, and stood majestically in front of the bloodstained gatehouse, talking cordially with all the virtuous people.

"If Your Majesty knows that you are the king of diligence, you will definitely be happy, and everyone will redouble their efforts in the future to assist the officials and troops to resist the enemy."

"This time the widow broke the enemy with water, the Shaoling area is a vast ocean, the farmland that should have a good harvest, I am afraid that most of the harvest will fail or even fail, the enemy army has been defeated, the downstream weir will be dug tomorrow at the latest, and when the water recedes, how much can the crops in the farmland be harvested..."

"This year's harvest is poor, and it is difficult for the people to make a living without food at home, so the widow decided to open a warehouse and release grain.

"There will be a big epidemic after the flood, and the officials and soldiers will carry out centralized rectification and clean up the source of the epidemic in the city, and everyone will need to help at that time, so as to get twice the result with half the effort..."

"The enemy army is newly defeated, and it will not come again in a short time, Shaoling is the gateway to the hanging gourd, the city defense must be strengthened, everyone must be more attentive and make suggestions..."

"The victory of the official army is great, this good news will be spread to all directions, and you have many relatives and friends in your family, so send someone to walk around and talk about today's victory."

"Today's event, the widow will play the Son of Heaven, everyone go back and prepare well, and in a few days go with the widow to hang the gourd and listen to the hadith."

Yuwen Wen babbled a lot, for all the virtuous people who dedicated the city, it was a scene, only the last paragraph was the key, everyone stook all their net worth, and finally saw the hope of return.

Like most states and counties, most of the officials in Shaoling are locals, and it doesn't matter if the son of heaven in the city is true or not, it is most important to be able to save his own life and family business, but now everyone has no choice but to give up the city and get on the other party's thief ship, so it would be better to see the owner and get some benefits.

Thanks to the trade route from Huangzhou to Yecheng, Shaoling, which is on this trade route, the officials and big families in the city have always heard of the name of the king of Xiyang, and it is said that this is more trustworthy, so what he said in public will inevitably be counted.

Sooner or later, the Wei Chi clan will counterattack, and when the time comes, they will take the whole family to the hanging gourd, and follow the Son of Heaven to retreat into Shannan and even Guanzhong, and there will always be an official and a half-post, although the fields and real estate in the hometown are gone, it is also cost-effective to be a bigger official, such as the county guard.

Yuwen Wen talked endlessly, the others kept nodding, and I don't know how long they talked, the conversation finally ended, everyone retreated, but one person stayed, Yu Wenwen changed the routine of talking about the "righteousness of the monarch and the minister", "future" and other big truths, and talked about practice with the other party.

This person is not a native or official of Shaoling, but he is the first hero to persuade Shaoling to surrender, Yuwenwen still appreciates the person who takes the initiative to Qin Wang, not to mention that the Son of Heaven urgently needs such a person.

Wu Qiu, the chief of Ruyang County, had previously gone to Xuangu with the county soldiers to rescue the victims, but was defeated and captured by the Anzhou army under Yuwenwen, and met the Son of Heaven in Xuanguo with other captured officials, and was later released to Ruyang.

This is an idle chess, I don't expect it to play a big role, anyway, it's better than killing, and Wu Qiu's idle chess later played a huge role.

Knowing that the Hanging Gourd was lost, the Yuzhou army withdrew from Fangcheng and returned to the division to rescue, but the result was that the Hanging Gourd City collapsed without a fight, and the governor of Yuzhou, He Ba Fuen, was defeated and died, after the news spread, although there was still no one to raise troops to Qin Wang, but many people's positions began to waver, Wu Qiu was one of them.

The Wu family lived in Ruyang, but the clansmen did not have a smooth career, and when they arrived in Wu Qiu, they were opened to the county head book and had a decent official position, but he pondered that if he followed the old path, he might as well have a bad future, so it was better to gamble.

In today's situation, the Yuchi clan is powerful, but the Yuwen clan does not seem to be as weak as everyone thought before, maybe there will be a confrontation between the east and the west, so if he seizes the opportunity to rise up King Qin and follow the Son of Heaven into Shannan, the tide will always rise.

It is not bad to strive to be a county guard, you must know that many local families in Henan have been in that position for generations, and there may not be children who sit in that position, so Wu Qiu feels that even if he leaves his hometown and is difficult to return to his homeland, it is worth it.

When Emperor Wei entered the Guanzhong in the west, there were many officials and children of the big clan who followed him, although Emperor Wei was still a puppet when he arrived in Chang'an, but most of the people who went west with him were doing well in Guanzhong, Wu Qiu thought that the opportunity to change the fate of the family was in front of him, and it was really a pity not to seize it.

Therefore, when he learned that Heba Fuen had been defeated, he secretly met with several large families in the city and decided to wait for the king of Qin, and when the Anzhou cavalry arrived outside the city, they opened the door to offer the city.

It was also because of Wu Qiu's dedication to the city that Yuwenwen's tactics were successfully implemented.

His tactics are very simple, nothing more than dare to do it, that is, to build a dam to flood Shaoling (Lekou), Shaoling and the place where the enemy camp in Lekou is located have several rivers converge, also known as Huiqu, it is conceivable that in the Yuzhou area of a plain, its terrain is relatively low.

Then it is to build a dam in the lower reaches of Shaoling Rushui (south) and the lower reaches of the Rushui (east) to build a dam backwater, the downstream of the Rushui is easy to say, just start from the hanging gourd and go north along the Rushui to find a good place to start work, as for the more suitable place in the downstream of the Rushui, that is Ruyang.

The problem was that Ruyang was not under the control of the Anzhou army in the first place, where a dam was built where the water returned would ensure that the enemy camps in Shaoling and Lekou would be flooded.

However, with Wu Qiu, the chief secretary of Ruyang County, doing the inner dedication of the city, this is not a problem.

The next problem was to achieve a surprise effect, and the dam had to be completed in a short period of time, which caused the water level to rise sharply upstream, so that most of the enemy troops in Lekou could be trapped or even drowned.

To this end, it is necessary to mobilize a lot of manpower and material resources, Yuwenwen transferred all the materials in the hanging city, and organized personnel to rush to work, and finally succeeded in building the dam, so that the upstream water level rose rapidly at night.

It is not enough to rely on flooding, a large number of ships have to transport troops to give the other party a fatal blow, but it is too late to make a wooden boat, so the Anzhou army rushed to make a large number of bamboo rafts to make up the number, which is also the reason why Yuwenwen stood on the bamboo raft to command the battle.

And Wu Qiu volunteered to go with the army to persuade the Shaoling defenders to surrender, and the effect was also very good.

Ruyang and Shaoling are more than 100 miles apart, Wu Qiu also has acquaintances in Shaoling, plus the flood flooded Shaoling, Anzhou soldiers are in the city, Pan Zihuang's army is about to be destroyed, Shaoling's officials and generals see that the general trend has gone, and see the acquaintance Wu Qiu shouting outside the city, so he simply opened the door to offer the city.

Such a meritorious person, of course, Yuwen Wen must be taken very seriously, the Son of Heaven is waiting for someone to come to work, just to make Wu Qiu an example, so as to encourage more people to work hard.

"Master Wu, you will go back to Ruyang tomorrow, pack up and take your family to hang the gourd, the field or something, don't be nostalgic, follow the Son of Heaven, there will definitely be something."

"I understand the lowly position, I don't know what else the lowly position can do for the king?"

"You move your family to the Hanging Gourd for a while, the enemy army will come back at any time, don't procrastinate, it's too late to regret if you can't leave." Yu Wenwen looked to the east, and then added: "Ruyang County borders the Bozhou Governor's Mansion, who knows when the Bozhou army will rush over?" ”

"Yes, I understand."

"Also, a few other meritorious people over there in Ruyang also have to hurry up and move, you urge more when you go back, this kind of thing is misunderstood."

"Yes, I understand."

Wu Qiu didn't have the slightest idea of being arrogant, he was now determined to go to the ship of the Son of Heaven, but not for the righteousness of any monarch and minister, purely for one more way to grasp it, and he also wanted to operate more on the side of King Xiyang.

For Wu Qiu, the surname of the Son of Heaven is Yuwen, and the surname of King Qi is also Yuwen, Guanzhong and Shannan are the territory of King Qi, and it is not impossible for King Qi to replace him in the future.

Climbing the tree of the King of Xiyang is equivalent to climbing the big tree of the King of Qi, he doesn't want to hang himself on a tree, the cunning rabbit has three holes, of course people have to leave a way back.

Many generals were waiting on the side, Wu Qiuzhi said goodbye, and when the water outside the city receded, he had to rush back to Ruyang to move, Yu Wenwen looked at the back of the other party who was far away, and motioned for Zhang Yu to come closer.

"Send a few more people to follow Master Wu, and you must keep it safe."

"Yes."

Zhang Yu went to arrange manpower, Yu Wenwen drank a few sips of water, and immediately discussed military affairs with the generals, he fought two big victories in succession, the news reached Yecheng, and the prime minister Chi Dan was bound to be angry, and when the time came, the army going south would not be so easy to send.

In the face of absolute strength, any magic tricks are useless.

"As the saying goes, it's not more than three, the army sent by Wei Chi Dan again, I'm afraid it will be menacing, Shaoling is the gateway to the north, and it will inevitably bear the brunt of the attack, how to arrange defense, everyone can talk freely."
