Chapter 110: The Torrent
Torrent!
What Gan Ning saw was a surging torrent, rushing from the upstream direction, and the sound of the waves was rolling, like thousands of horses galloping.
In an instant, Gan Ning's face was occupied by endless surprises, and he thought he had seen an illusion in a trance.
It wasn't until the soldiers around him let out a cry of surprise that he confirmed that he was right.
That's right, it was a torrent.
The torrent comes from the upstream, which means that the upstream will inevitably fall suddenly, and the rainfall will be extremely large in a short period of time, causing the river to swell sharply, forming a torrent to hit the downstream.
"God really has eyes! Could it be that Childe had predicted that there would be heavy rain upstream, and the torrent would not be successful? ”
Gan Ning looked at the torrent and was stunned, and the whole person fell into a deep shock to Su Zhe.
It wasn't until the torrent approached that Gan Ning came to his senses and shouted excitedly: "Inform the brothers of the boats to sit firmly, don't ask the torrent to get off the boat." ”
When the order was laid, the soldiers of each ship suppressed their ecstasy and clung to the wall of the ship to meet the flood that day.
On the shore, the 1,000 Xiliang cavalry stationed there had already become a pot of porridge at this moment, and they fell into endless panic.
They were originally squatting on the ground to rest, dozing off, but they jumped up one after another, scrambling to climb on the horse's back.
Although they did not know why the flood had suddenly appeared, they knew very well that the levee had been damaged and could not withstand the onslaught of the torrent, and if they did not flee quickly, the torrent would burst out of the embankment, and they would all be swept away by the flood.
"Why is this happening, why is there a sudden flood upstream at such a season, this is unreasonable, this is unreasonable......"
Dong Bai stood there in a daze, looking at the torrent far and near, his cold face had been occupied by deep shock and confusion.
Could it be that the stinky boy had anticipated the rainstorm upstream, and the flood was coming?
This thought suddenly burst into Dong Bai's mind, and his body couldn't help but shiver.
A person can not only predict the changes in wind and rain, but also predict the distance upstream, and also predict the accurate time......
What a terrible man this is!
Dong Bai couldn't help but see Su Zhe's calm and calm thin figure in front of him, his brows couldn't help frowning tightly, and his heart felt like he had been stabbed by a needle.
"Miss Shao, run quickly, if you don't run, it's too late." A panicked reminder sounded from the soldiers.
Dong Bai suddenly woke up, and when she looked again, the torrent was already surging closer, and she was about to overflow the broken embankment and rush towards her.
The Xiliang soldiers behind him had already been in a mess, and they didn't wait for her orders, they climbed on their horses one after another, looked at the upstream direction and fled.
Dong Bai looked back at the direction of the camp, knowing that the torrent was coming too fast, and even if he rushed to the camp to warn, he would not have time to warn, and would only follow the soldiers of the camp and be flooded by the flood together.
"Damn it!" Dong Bai scolded, did not hesitate too much, and fled upstream with the chaotic crowd.
Moments later, the torrent hit.
The turbulent water, carrying the momentum of thunder, frantically slapped towards the embankment on both banks, the east bank was already low, and the embankment was excavated and damaged, the water was unobstructed, and it overflowed the embankment in an instant, rushing towards the direction of Xiliang Daying.
Dong Bai escaped more than a mile in one go, and only stopped when he fled to a high ground and was sure that the torrent would not flood.
She turned around, looked back, and gasped, only to see that the place where they had just been had been submerged, and the water was at least as high as a man.
Looking further away, the turbulent torrent has ruthlessly spread in the direction of the camp, and the remaining 8,000 Xiliang soldiers were flooded, which is a foregone conclusion.
The incident happened suddenly, even if they had horses, they didn't have time to escape, and after this flood, I don't know how many people died, and it was no different from the total annihilation of the army.
"Su Zhe, Su Zhe ......"
Dong Bai's face was as gloomy as ice, and she repeatedly recited this name that made her hate and be shocked, and she looked at the boiling water in such a distracted manner, drowning in her camp.
Xiliang Army Battalion.
It was dark, and the camp was still snoring.
Zhang Ji didn't sleep all night, until this time he was riding a horse, inspecting the camp walls everywhere.
Dong Huang went and returned, informed him of the situation at the embankment, and then returned to the account by himself, and fell asleep.
Zhang Ji couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he learned that the alarm had been lifted at the embankment, but he was worried that Su Zhe would come to rob the camp at night, but he didn't dare to sleep, so he could only insist on patrolling.
It wasn't until the east turned white and the first rays of morning light rose that Zhang Ji relaxed his vigilance and realized that Su Zhe would not come to rob the camp, so he stretched his waist and planned to go back to the tent to rest.
"General Zhang, look, something seems to be approaching from the north?" One of the soldiers next to him suddenly shouted.
Zhang Ji immediately regained his vigilance, looked to the north with wide eyes, and through the camp fence, he saw a white fog, which was rolling in.
The fog came very quickly, as if thousands of troops and horses were rolling in, but the sound of turbulent waves was faintly heard in it.
Fog?
How could the dust and fog attack in the north direction, could it be that Su Zhe's kid led his troops around the north to attack my camp?
That's not right, that kid shouldn't be so stupid, he can't rob the camp at night, but why just wait for dawn to attack from the north?
This is not reasonable at all, that kid is not stupid, how could he make such a stupid decision.
Zhang Ji's thoughts were racing, and the more he thought about it, the more suspicious he felt, his eyes widened again, and he looked carefully at the incoming dust and mist.
Suddenly, Zhang Ji's eyes widened, and endless horror surged on his face, as if he had seen the most terrifying and unbelievable thing in this world.
"Hong ...... Flood...... Flood!? ”
Zhang Ji's face turned pale in an instant, and even his voice became hoarse and trembling, and the roots of his tongue were knotted.
He hurriedly turned over his horse, and went away again, and looked carefully in the morning light, and sure enough, it was a flood of waves, surging like a herd of fierce beasts, and surging in the direction of the camp.
"How is this possible, didn't Dong Huang clearly say that the water potential of the river is very small, and it is not enough to break the embankment, how can it suddenly burst into a torrent?" Zhang Ji was confused, his eyes surging with endless confusion and surprise.
The soldiers on duty on the left and right had already panicked, shouted loudly, and fled from the camp one after another.
Zhang Jihui came to his senses and shouted: "Quickly sound the gong to warn them, wake them up, everyone immediately get on their horses, abandon the camp and flee." ”
He shouted, and with the chaotic soldiers, he squeezed out of the camp gate and fled to the heights.
The sound of gongs and screams broke the silence of the early morning, and thousands of sleeping Xiliang soldiers walked out of the tent in a daze, wanting to see what was happening.
Late.
The torrent was coming too fast, and before they could react to what was going on, the raging torrent had already overflowed the camp wall and rushed towards them frantically.
Flood the camp!
