Chapter 32: The Flood

Zhu Di, who had been swaying around for a few laps, drove the war horse back to the camp slowly, and was secretly relieved in his heart, if the southern army really rushed out and captured himself regardless of it, it would really be all over.

At the same time, the sky is gradually getting late, only a piece of orange on the horizon is still trying to throw the afterglow to the earth, the two armies can't figure out the reality of the opposite side, but they are not in a hurry, a little cooking smoke is in the air, the fragrance of rice spreads on both sides of the Huaishui, and occasionally you can smell a faint smell of meat, which is mouth-watering.

After four days of continuous travel, Yan Jun was already extremely tired, and now it is even more rare to be able to eat a mouthful of hot rice, as well as a few pieces of fatty meat, and then fill a pot of hot water and drink it dry, not to mention how happy it is.

Just when the two armies of Yannan were eating and drinking, Qin Yu was not idle, and the solid rock layer became their biggest obstacle. The sharp-beaked hoe dug down, and only a few thin pieces of broken stone could be knocked down, and the work could only be temporarily stopped.

Qin Yu repeatedly estimated the power of 5,000 catties of explosives, but there was no way to blow up this embankment, so he could only go to the army to get gunpowder.

After running several times, I raised enough 10,000 catties of gunpowder, such a big gap, I think it should be enough.

Just when Qin Yu and others were assembling the gunpowder, Zhu Di, who received the news, directly ordered the whole army to retreat ten miles along the Huai River, and the southern army did not care about the peace of receiving the news.

Qin Yu, who had installed the gunpowder, was not in a hurry to detonate it, it was still very early before the appointed time, and he beckoned a group of soldiers to start a fire and cook, and he was busy for a long time, but he was about to die of exhaustion.

The dry and hard coarse grain cakes in the army don't taste good when cooked, and they are just a bowl of paste, but now they can't care so much, and they swallow a big bowl in three or two clicks.

Touching the swollen round belly, Qin Yu quickly took out the hay that had been prepared and spread it on a piece of hay to cover the exposed soil, now it is cold, the air is very dry, and the weeds on the ground have long been yellow and have lost their vitality, but they are not afraid of moisture.

"Uh-huh!"

With a long stretch of relief, Qin Yu slowly fell on the hay, holding his head in his hands and looking up at the starry sky. At this time, the sky is very clean, but there is no thick exhaust gas in the later generations to block the sky, the Milky Way hangs in a long line, and the starry sky is bright and beautiful, very beautiful.

Unconsciously, Qin Yu slowly closed his eyes. This night, I slept very soundly and steadily, I should have felt the slightest warmth in the cold, but Qin Yu felt very warm.

When I woke up, it was already the moon, and it was already late afternoon.

Qin Yu was about to get up, but he found the fur fur on his body, and his heart couldn't help but warm, this is the coat that Dad carries all the year round, although it is not expensive, but it is very warm, looking at it, Dad is sitting around the campfire with a group of soldiers to keep warm, and he has not relaxed his vigilance at all.

Fold the fur seriously, then walked over to the father, handed the fur fur with a smile and said, "It's time to do things now!" ”

Qin Tian got up, and put the fur fur on Qin Yu's body without refusal, and then nodded. After greeting him, all the sergeants took action, detonating nearly 10,000 catties of gunpowder, which could not tolerate the slightest sloppiness, and if he was not careful, he would die.

They are all good players in the army, so naturally they will not make mistakes, and Qin Yu ran far away to the top of the mountain on the north bank, and the power of opening up the mountain and cracking the stone is not fun.

The sergeants took out a nearly fifty-meter-long lead, connected the explosives pack, and then took out the fire fold and prepared to light it.

Qin Tian glanced at Qin Yu, who had already run away, nodded, and then shouted: "Ignite the fire!" ”

"Snort..."

The sound of hundreds of gunpowder fuses burning was particularly piercing in the silent night sky, and the sergeants who heard the sound did not dare to slack off, and they all stepped up their running pace, running towards the mountain where Qin Yu was located.

"Bang! Boom! Boom! ”

As if the thunder that exploded in his ears pierced the sky, Qin Yu, who was standing nearly four or five hundred meters away, felt a wave of qi rushing with a thunderous momentum from a distance, and the soldiers who heard the sound fell down early, lying on the ground, and Qin Yu, who was caught off guard, did not hear his father's scolding, and stood upright, and was directly knocked to the ground by this wave of qi.

Without caring about patting the dirt off his body, Qin Yu hurriedly turned over and sat up, carefully observing the situation of the embankment by the moonlight.

The situation is far more violent than Qin Yu imagined, the originally slowly flowing water, suddenly exploded the river, itself southeast of the river channel is low, now it is out of control, a steady stream of water in the southeast direction, and the dam has a tendency to continue to widen, and the river water that flows out of the river except for a small part of the periphery, most of it is poured into the Huaishui.

Suddenly, a large amount of river water poured into Huaishui, raising the water level and volume of Huaishui step by step, and it was extremely fierce, rushing down like a bamboo, Qin Yu slightly hooked the corners of his mouth, this is what he wants, the flood that wants people's lives!
