It's the beginning of July, and the Yiling water has been impounded for more than a month, and the water level in Yiling has skyrocketed several feet high almost every day!

You must know that the waterway of the entire Yiling is more than 100 miles long, and every foot of water level that rises in these 100 miles means that it is enough to flood the land of Chuxi.

By the beginning of July, the water level in Yiling had already crossed the "blocked hill" at the mouth of the water, because the water level was unknown, and the Jing army had evacuated this place half a month earlier.

One night, there was a long-term thunderstorm and the sound of rain...... Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound of falling rocks, which directly overwhelmed the sound of thunderstorms and woke up the soldiers in Jing Jun who fell asleep.

In the thunderstorm, there was another panicked footsteps and shouts, and it was King Jing Yun, surrounded by many guards, who entered Lin Yuyan's camp.

Inside the tent, Lin Yuyan was also awakened by the loud rumbling sound and sat on the bed.

Qi Yun's breath was a little rapid, and it was difficult to hide the excitement in his heart.

"An hour ago, Yiling's sewer block had collapsed!"

"Well......" Lin Yuyan nodded, and also said to Qianyun: "Thunderstorms for days, the river water has swelled, the hills are loose, and the collapse is expected!" ”

Looking at Lin Yuyan's disapproving face, he still didn't let Qianyun suppress his excitement, and still asked Lin Yuyan: "When will you send troops?" ”

Lin Yuyan glanced at Qianyun and said, "The soaring river not only makes the Chu army dead, but also makes it difficult for the Jing army to move an inch. ”

"Moreover, Yingdu is the capital of the old Chu after all, far higher than Jiangling, the reason why Yuanzhang was able to block the Jing army with Jiangling Pass is that Jiangling is a dangerous place for hundreds of miles, after the river roars, Jiangling has no danger to defend, Yuanzhang must be a strong man who broke his wrist, abandoned Jiangling and led the army back to Yingdu!"

"This ......" Lin Yuyan's words were like a basin of cold water that extinguished the surging meaning surging in Qianyun's heart, and after a few breaths, Qianyun also said: "A mere Jiangling is so troublesome, so how can Yingdu break through?!" ”

Seeing that the clouds went from surprise to despair, Lin Yuyan also comforted: "Now that most of the land of western Chu has been flooded by the roaring river, I am afraid that the land of western Chu will not be harvested this year, and besides, there is a war between Wu and Chu, and it may not be possible to win without a fight in the future......"

Listening to Lin Yuyan say this, Qianyun is just like this, the land of Chuxi is flooded by the river, which is indeed so that the Chu army that now occupies Chuxi cannot collect half a grain of grain, and the Wu State is also eyeing the side, and the Jing army has not yet had a chance to recover Yingdu.

However, Mi Yun's eyes were already fixed on Yingdu, but the Chu general Yuanzhang who was stationed in Jiangling was already like a wanderer, after the "blocked hill" at the mouth of Yiling was crushed, the waterway that was up to 100 miles did not reach an hour, and the water was roaring, and the waves of dozens of zhang directly overshadowed the scouts sent out by Yuanzhang, except for two or three lucky Chu pawns who successfully hid in the mountains before the arrival of the water, and the 30,000 garrisons stationed outside Jiangling City were all buried in the belly of the fish by this monstrous water.

Yuanzhang heard the water potential of Jiangling, and also came to the city of Jiangling, this time the Jing army retreated to Yiling, Yuanzhang expected that the Jing army would use the water attack strategy, so Yuanzhang built a dam in the Jiangling area, and the hard work between months made Yuanzhang think that Jiangling was impregnable, but the reality was to Yuanzhang to hand over a basin of cold water!

In addition to the defenders in Jiangling City, those Chu garrisons stationed outside Jiangling City and in the city were all swept to the bottom of the river by the ferocious water, because it was early in the morning, and the Chu soldiers who could escape were very few.

Moreover, Jiangling certainly held on to the surging river, but on the turbulent water that jumped down the upper stream, it was even more with the sharpened giant trees, and those sharpened giant trees hit the solid Jiangling city wall, and even Yuanzhang felt a wild shock!

Subsequently, you can see the huge trees planted horizontally on the top of the Jiangling city, and the raging waves of the river bring bursts of sand and mud, which directly lowers the head of the city of Wuling by several zhang.

"General!" A thousand-person general of the Chu State also ran in front of Yuan Zhang, and said in a panic: "General, the water is too fierce, I'm afraid this Jiangling ...... Gangneung can't hold it! ”

"Can't hold it?" Yuan Zhang glared angrily, looked at the thousand-person general, pulled out his long sword, and scolded: "Those who disturb the hearts of the Great Chu Army will not be forgiven!" ”

"General!" The thousand-strong general of the Chu State shouted hysterically almost in a bitter tone: "General, this flood has washed away the grain prepared by the Jiangling granary, and here in Jiangling, the crops of the people have also been flooded by the flood, if you don't return to Yingdu now, before the Jing army fights, the Great Chu will already be disheartened and the camp will roar!" ”

This thousand-person general also has some knowledge, but it is not that Yuanzhang's insight is not as good as this Chu thousand-person general, but Yuanzhang has just run out from the camp where the commander is located to investigate the enemy's situation, and he knows that this big water from Yiling is fierce, but the specific casualties of the Chu army are not clear!

And this Chu thousand generals were guarding Jiangling's "patrol" last night, because when the flood came, the Chu army suffered serious casualties, but this thousand people escaped from the flood, and he also saw the casualties of the Chu army along the way.

After the mention of this thousand-person general, Yuanzhang is no longer looking at the surging water flowing down from the upper reaches of the river, but looking up, the situation in the Jiangling area is far more serious than Yuanzhang expected, in the past few months, tens of thousands of Chu troops built up the Jiangling long dam, under the impact of the turbulent river, actually formed a gap, and the river is also flowing along these gaps towards the broader land of western Chu!

"Oops!" Yuan Zhang's eyes were also tight, staring at the gaps in the Jiangling Long Dam, and he actually showed a look of compassion: "The autumn harvest military rations of tens of thousands of Chu soldiers!" ”

The thousand-strong general of the Chu army also thought of this, and said anxiously to Yuanzhang: "General, Jiangling is already undefendable, this flood must make most of the grain in the land of western Chu be taken away by this river, and Jiangling can no longer be defended!" ”

Yuan Zhang's gaze retreated, and he looked at the direction of the upper reaches of the river with great anger, and actually cursed: "That King Jing is really vicious, he was guarding Yingdu with fire at the beginning, and now he is flooding Jiangling, which is hateful!" ”

Yuan Zhang is now like a fierce tiger who loves people, sweeping the last glance at Jiangling, Yuan Zhang finally waved his hand and ordered: "Leave enough people to rescue the Chu pawn who fell into the water in Jiangling...... Command the army to retreat to Yingdu! ”
