Chapter 401: Flooding Yan City

Lin Yuyan was also unexpected when he heard north of Yanshui that the Dongzhu State of Jingguo, who guarded Hengshan County, had eliminated nearly 200,000 soldiers of the Chu State with a trick of surrender, and then he thought of the self-esteem of the Chu people, and he was a little relieved: The arrogant Chu people!

Even Huan Yu, who is nominally the chief general of the Qin army, is a little melancholy when he gets the news, compared to what he heard a few days ago, Dongzhu Guo's Miquan is about to descend into Chu State, even Huan Yu's rather upright generals are already guessing that Dongzhu Guo's Qi Cheng wants to retain the power and status in his hands to fight against Yingdu, and even does not hesitate to surrender to Chu.

Who would have expected that this was just a trick of the Dongzhu State, and correspondingly, the cost of more than half of the casualties of the Hengshan Army was exchanged for the casualties of nearly 200,000 soldiers of the Chu State, and even the high-ranking and powerful Taifu Fei Wuji of the Chu State was captured alive, so it must be said that this battle was a great victory!

Although they suffered the revenge of the Chu people at that time, and attacked the counties of Jinghengyang almost day and night, even if they got a Hengyang county, I am afraid it would be difficult to offset the loss of 200,000 casualties of the Chu State!

Huan Yu was very hesitant, he was the only one of the five pillar stone generals back then, who turned away from Jing Kingdom, and even Xiong Ji, who was originally regarded as a "tiger and wolf generation" by Tiangong, was also working hard to defend Jing Land, but he didn't expect that he only wanted to seek loyalty and righteousness, and he deviated from Jing Kingdom!

Although there are still many mistakes in it, especially the Zhewang Qu Yan, who has always been benevolent, deceived Huan Yu's trust for expediency, but this huge sense of disparity also made Huan Yu fall into contemplation.

Looking at his lost left arm, Huan Yu also gritted his teeth for a while, since he lost an arm, Huan Yu no longer led the army into battle: "Xiong Ji! ”

Huan Yu almost gritted his teeth, and his green tendons were exposed, which showed how much hatred he had for Xiong Ji who caused all this, and in the end, Huan Yu also looked at the direction of Yingdu and said: "If you want to blame it, blame that dead old thing is really unfair!" ”

At that time, the Beizhu Kingdom was canonized to Huan Yu, who was one of the five pillar stone generals at that time, but who would have thought that it was the younger brother of Zhurong Tiangong, and the useless Mi Quan took advantage of the stage.

Huan Yu looked at the surging river under his feet, it was already late May, and dams had been built on the Manhe River, and the ancient river channel hidden in the mountains and forests had also been rested by the Qin soldiers.

It doesn't take a day, the water of this barbarian river is directly to the iron slope on the northwest side of Yancheng, and it is directly discharged down, Yancheng is a highland, can not store water, the high wall of Yancheng City is thick, and it can not withstand the soaking of water, especially that day, the ancient river channel is now wrapped by mountains and rocks and forests, it is easy to form a mudslide, in the face of the natural power of heaven and earth, even if Yancheng exhausted the manpower and material resources to build, it is also vulnerable!

Huan Yu had already expected that the battle of Yancheng a few days later would not be inferior to the battle of Hengyang that Dongzhu Guo had lost, and it was even possible that he would win.

As the battle of Yancheng, the nominal general of the Qin army, Huan Yu was somewhat relieved after getting the news of the battle of Hengyang, the battle of Hengyang, the number of people killed by the Dongzhu State was not a few, especially when I heard that the Dongzhu State was responsible for killing the prisoners and casting them into Jingguan, and the Chu ** team wantonly slaughtered the city, which also made Huan Yu accept the current chaotic world, and the lives of civilians were as frivolous and powerless as mustard.

Chen Zhiqing also arrived in Wu'an Township today, saw Huan Yu, and brought Gongziyan's order: "General Huan, Gongziyan ordered to open a canal to divert water tonight, and flood Yancheng early tomorrow morning!" ”

"How could it be so fast!"

"It is said that Yingdu's side has changed, and Mi Ying has returned to the transfer of military power taken over by Yingdu, and Chi Zesheng has changed......" Chen Zhiqing paused, and then revealed new news to Huan Yu: "That Qu Yan also died a few days ago!" ”

"King Zhe also ......" Huan Yu rubbed his palms and held them tightly together, and then closed his eyes: "Tomorrow will be flooded...... Yancheng! ”

Seeing this, Chen Zhiqing didn't know the torment in Huan Yu's heart, but he was helpless, after all, for this enemy general who captured Deng State in the past, although Chen Zhiqing was sensible, he was hostile after all, although this Huan Yu was the main general of the Qin army now.

In the future, it will also be written in the history books of the Qin State that "After Chu Xincai met the alliance, Qin led the army south, and the enemy general Huan Yu surrendered to Qin, offered a plan to flood Yancheng, and led his own troops and horses to make it attack Yancheng for Qin!" ”

In the final analysis, this former majestic Shouwang Huan Yu is a poor man after all!

Sure enough, when the twilight was about to close, although there was no order from Huan Yu as the main general, the soldiers of the Qin army were already opening a canal to divert water, and the barbarian river, which had been tamed for more than half a month, was finally like a silver snake with a thick waist, quickly rushing into the mountains and forests, sweeping wantonly......

Along the way, the silt, boulders and even trees on the ancient river channel were uprooted in the face of the raging river and surged down with the water.

At the end of this ancient river channel is the ironing slope in the northwest of Yancheng, which is facing the gate of Yancheng.

In the early morning of the next day, on the city wall in the northwest section of Yancheng, the soldiers who changed guards also faintly heard the movement in the mountains and forests, and the sound was like the sound of thunder being forcibly covered.

The soldiers defending the city also showed great panic: "Could it be that the Qin army is coming to attack the city?" ”

After noticing that the movement was coming from the mountains and forests in the west, he slowly put his mind at ease, there was the Iron Slope, which was a cliff dozens of zhang high, if the Qin soldiers were not afraid of falling to death, they would attack the city from here!

The sound became louder and louder, from far to near, but the soldiers guarding the city saw that the little bird between the mountains and forests was also hovering in the air, and did not fly down for a long time, which was the strangeness.

At this very moment, a clear spring leaked out of the cliff of the Iron Slope, followed by muddy mud, and then, at the end of the eyes of many soldiers, a flying yellow snake appeared!

It was an overwhelming flood that annihilated all life!

"It's flooding!" The Jing people know more about the tragic situation of the river floods, even the strongest city walls, I am afraid they will not be able to resist the persecution of nature, it is precisely because of this, they saw the flying mud flood, with floating trees on it, rushing towards the Yancheng city wall!

Subsequently, the iron slope also collapsed, making the water flow more ferocious, and the yellow mud of the hundreds of zhang iron slope landslide directly filled the wall of Yancheng, so that the flood directly crossed the tall city wall of Yancheng and directly leaked into the city wall.

Although the soldiers defending the city were discovered early, how could they run through the raging river with their two legs, and directly let the mud river water drown, and the huge boulders carried by the flood directly crushed these soldiers in the mud and rock flow, filling them into the black and yellow-brown roaring mud flow, filling in the red ......

The fleet of Wu Kang, the general of the Qin army, was above Yanshui, and he saw this human tragedy from a distance, and he was also a little shocked, but he didn't expect that Yancheng, who couldn't help the Qin army with all his might, was so powerless in the face of the flood, and it was directly broken!

"General, are you besieging the city?!" After the general of the Han Water Army looked at Yancheng being flooded, he also asked.

Wu Kang looked at it, shook his head again, and said: "At present, the water potential in Yancheng is unknown, and it is not wise for a certain army to enter without permission, so it is better to wait for Yancheng to become a flood in a few days, and then make plans to attack the city!" ”

"Whoa!"

The general of the Han Navy Army is also a Jing man, and he was also the channel of Jing Guoshou Wang Huanyu to go to Qin State as a subordinate, and later became a hundred generals after joining the army.

"Fortunately, now, a certain person is a Qin person!" The 100-man general also said silently in his heart.

A few days later, Yancheng had become an ocean, and the Qin army's navy, under the leadership of General Wu Kang, followed Yanshui directly across the rear of Yancheng, and pursued and intercepted the fleeing Jing people.

At this time, Xiong Ji was unkempt and unkempt in the mountains and forests, and there were only dozens of people following him, when the Qin army flooded Yancheng, Xiong Ji's place of residence was the high place of Yancheng, so he escaped the first wave of floods, and then found a boat, and barely escaped from Yancheng, but the important waterway of Yanshui was guarded by the Qin army, and Xiong Ji had no choice but to take the mountain path.

There are drowned corpses everywhere, even if Xiong Ji has been fighting for many years, he has not seen this scene, the tragedy of the battle of Yingdu back then, and the blood and war that Xiong Ji adapts to, but around this Yancheng, there is nothing except the white and swollen corpses that have been soaked.

So much so that Xiong Ji, who thought that he had escaped, couldn't help but cry out: "I shouldn't have sent troops to Nanjun at that time, how good it would be to stick to Wuling!" ”

In front of Xiong Ji, there is a high mountain road, this is the secret road where Xiong Ji led the army to attack Nanjun, but he didn't expect that today it is a choice to escape!

The quiet mountain seems to have become a little noisy because of the traces of people, Xiong Ji panicked and fled, but a cold voice sounded from the top of the mountain: "Xiong Ji, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" ”

Xiong Ji was shocked, and when he raised his head, he found that after the cover of the mountains, rocks, forests, and trees, they were all black and dark Qin soldiers, and the leader was eight feet tall and holding a long knife......
