Chapter 371: The Strategy of Breaking the Levee

The accidental gain of this wounded sergeant made Lu Meng and Lu Xun feel excited, and for the first time they saw through Zhuge Liang's plan, this sense of achievement is indescribable, although there is a trace of luck in it, but the result is the most important thing.

The two also reasoned cautiously, and found that if it weren't for the sergeant who discovered the location of Zhuge Liang's army, Zhuge Liang took advantage of the last night to touch the rear of the barracks again, and he could indeed catch them off guard, which made the two more and more sure that Zhuge Liang would definitely attack the camp at dawn.

"Bo Yan thinks, how should we deal with this matter, Zhuge Liang sent forty or fifty thousand troops, although it is not all the soldiers and horses he brought this time, but I think that most of the elite people and horses are also here, if we can take these forty or fifty thousand people at a small price, our chances of winning this time will be greatly enhanced."

Obviously, Zhuge Liang's army, which is now in the low-lying land behind the forest, has become the object of Lu Meng's plot, but how to defeat it at a very small cost is still a big problem, if you set up an ambush in the camp and wait for Zhuge Liang to lead the army to attack, although it may also make it too late to deal with it, but under the fighting of the army, even if it wins, it will most likely be a tragic victory, and in the end, it is still the nominal ally ally Lu Su.

"Here is indeed as the sergeant said, there is a small forest, behind the forest is a depression, behind the depression is a small river, very suitable for the woods as a barrier to ambush a lot of military horses, at this time those who sneaked into the camp arsonist most likely have already informed Zhuge Liang of the situation in our military camp, Zhuge Liang thought in his heart, most of the cavalry I sent was to kill all the cavalry I sent in the woods, our army did not reply for a while, they will think that it was his plan to lure the enemy, so they still do not come out of the camp, This gave him time and space to lead his army to the rear of our camp in a hurry, but when he sent his troops, it would certainly not be now. ”

Lu Xun stood on Zhuge Liang's position and made such an analysis, and the meaning of his words was already very obvious, that is, if they wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to hit Zhuge Liang hard, they could only take advantage of the short period of time from now to dawn, otherwise, what was waiting for them would only be to fight a tragic encounter with Zhuge Liang in the camp.

Lu Meng was naturally able to comprehend the meaning of Lu Xun's words, so he asked again: "Bo Yan has any good strategy, but it doesn't hurt to say it, there is not much time left for you and me, if my expectations are good, after an hour and a half, Zhuge Liang will probably lead the army to set off." ”

"The depression of Zhuge Liang's troops, I have been to it several times before, and I have a little understanding of the situation in this place, the terrain was originally a small lake when the river rose, and the rainfall was very little during this year, which dried up, giving Zhuge Liang such a treasure land, but the depression is not far from the river next to it, and the river that was originally impacted by the river should still be there, and the heavy rain is pouring tonight, and the river level should have risen a lot, if we dig the river......

When Lu Xun said this, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he had to say that although the strategy he had in mind was a little vicious, once it succeeded, it would be a one-and-done strategy.

"The river has been dry for a long time, and if you want to dig it up by manpower, I'm afraid it will be a little tight for an hour......"

Although Lu Meng was not as familiar with that place as Lu Xun, after thinking about what Lu Xun said, he still felt that Lu Xun was quite a little taken for granted in this matter.

"At an extraordinary time, when doing this extraordinary thing, even if the time is urgent, I will lead an army of 10,000 to dig, and I will definitely be able to dig the river embankment in an instant, and then set up an ambush outside the woods, when Zhuge Liang leads the army to escape, it is the time for us to kill it!"

Lu Meng knew that once he did this, he would not only drown Zhuge Liang's military horses in the depression, but also drown some of the Jiangdong soldiers who were digging the embankment.

"Ziming Du Du Don't hesitate any longer, this opportunity, if you don't seize it, you won't come again! You lead a large army to ambush outside the woods, and I personally lead 10,000 dead men to dig the river! ”

Lu Xun saw that Lu Meng was still weighing the pros and cons of doing this, and he was already impatient in his heart, his thinking was more radical than Lu Meng, everything was aimed at repelling Zhuge Liang, and he could achieve such a goal, and there was really no difference between dying in battle in front of the battle and being drowned by the river.

Lu Xun said, staring at Lu Meng, Lu Meng's silver teeth were clenched at the moment, obviously he was also doing a very big struggle in his heart, this expedition, although the two of them came together, but he was still the main commander, Lu Xun assisted, so he had more things to consider in his heart than Lu Xun.

After the terrible silence, Lu Meng finally squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Just like Bo Yan said." ”

After hearing this, Lu Xun gave the order as quickly as possible, personally led 10,000 sergeants, carrying digging tools, and hurried to the river. In order to avoid Zhuge Liang's investigation, they did not follow the previous path of pursuing Guan Ping, but first through the pontoon bridge to the other side of the river, and then slowly approached the depression, Lu Xun believed that as long as Zhuge Liang could not be discovered, he was fully confident that the river would be dug up in a short time with a stick of incense, and then the rolling river would instantly flood the muddy place of Zhuge Liang's troops, he believed that at least half of Zhuge Liang's forty or fifty thousand troops would be buried in the river, and the other half would also be wiped out by Lu Meng, who was ambushed outside the woods.

Although LΓΌ Meng also recognized this plan, but out of fear of Zhuge Liang, he was always a little inexplicably vigilant, so he did not leave all the remaining soldiers and horses to ambush outside the woods, but only led 20,000 elite soldiers to go, and in the camp, there were still 30,000 soldiers, led by Jiangdong generals Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, who continued to guard the camp and Poyang County, and Zhuge Liang's several battles made LΓΌ Meng understand not to be too confident in himself at any time, There is no reason to put all your eggs in one basket.

After more than half an hour, Lu Xun and Lu Meng all arrived at the location they planned, Lu Meng had ordered the archers he brought to open their bows and arrows, aiming in the direction of the woods, once Zhuge Liang's army was really flooded, then they would definitely escape in a hurry, and then die by arrows.

And Lu Xun was making the final excavation at this time, and with the efforts of 10,000 people, a huge gap had appeared on the side of the river, and it was crumbling under the impact of the turbulent river.
