Chapter 30: Winning the Odds
Looking at the southern army that had already been deployed for defense along the Huaishui coast, Qin Yu was speechless, the current southern army was completely at a disadvantage. Moreover, there is a Huaishui in front of him, which will undoubtedly greatly weaken the speed of the Yan army's maneuvering across the river and become a live target for the southern army's arrow array.
Zhu Di didn't want to fight such a battle, this kind of battle was simply hopeless, if there was no defensive encounter, even if the enemy had hundreds of thousands of people, Zhu Di would dare to rush forward, but in front of him, the southern army had already opened the formation, all kinds of heavy defense facilities were erected, and now if he went up, he would inevitably have to take human lives to fill it, Zhu Di's family foundation was not so thick, and he couldn't tolerate his own defeat.
Zhu Di glanced at Qin Yu beside him, nodded, and then said, "Can the plan start?" ”
Qin Yu arched his hand, and said with a straight face: "The commander, the soldiers are fast, the last general will lead a battalion of men and horses to execute, and the wolf smoke will be the letter, the commander must not miss this opportunity!" Now the marshal should let the soldiers rest more, my side is done, and the marshal is going to move again! ”
Zhu Di nodded and said, "Go, 100,000 iron horses, you can choose!" ”
Qin Yu arched his hand, quickly turned his horse's head and headed towards Zhang Yubu's Yanshan camp.
Zhang Yu saw Qin Yu galloping from a distance, glanced at Qin Tian with an impermanent expression behind him, and then turned his head.
"General Zhang!"
Qin Yu arched his hand, and Zhang Yu said: "Well, you kid is not good to follow Dashuai, what are you doing here with me!?" ”
Qin Yu smiled and took out a Zhu Di's order arrow, and said: "On the order of the marshal, the special boy selected a battalion of soldiers to carry out the task, and asked General Zhang to cooperate!" ”
Zhang Yu pursed his lips and said angrily: "I know that I am looking for people in my Yanshan camp, why don't you go to find Zhu Neng and those people!?" ”
Qin Yu smiled and said to Zhang Yu: "Isn't this my father also under your command, since you have this opportunity, it is harmless to perform some easier work." ”
Zhang Yu laughed, waved his hand and said, "Okay, you kid is better than a ghost, go and lead people away, don't delay the handsome thing." ”
Qin Yu arched his hand, and rode directly to Qin Tian, pretending to be serious and said: "On the order of King Yan, General Qin, you and the soldiers under your tent are now all at my disposal, now immediately count the men and horses, and then set off with me!" By the way, bring 5,000 pounds of explosives! And everyone should bring a hoe and shovel! ”
Qin Tian glared at Qin Yu who was holding the gold medal order arrow, and without asking much, he gathered the soldiers and horses under his command, but after a while, the elite cavalry force of more than 400 people had been assembled, and with Qin Yu's order, this team of soldiers and horses left the army directly and headed towards the upper reaches of the Jiahe River.
Qin Tian, who was out of the army, was not so well-behaved, and slapped Qin Yu on the head directly, and said angrily: "You kid, you dare to order your father, rebel, hum!" ”
Qin Yu hurriedly sneered: "How can I be, I just follow orders, but the prince has explained..."
Knowing that Qin Yute loves stinky farts, Qin Tian hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Stop, stop, don't talk about this, tell me what you are doing this time?" ”
Qin Yu smiled and said, "Of course it's a matter of breaking the enemy!" You'll find out later! ”
...
A group of cavalry walked only more than 20 miles, and then arrived at the place designated by the Qin Imperial Palace, everyone dismounted, Qin Tian asked puzzledly: "What did you bring us here for?" ”
Qin Yu didn't sell it anymore, he directly took out the map and said: "Father, look, the river in front of you is the Huaishui, and the direction of the southeast water level is the upper reaches of the Huaishui, which is also the location of the Southern Army. ”
Qin Tian was dumbfounded when he heard this, and said in surprise: "Change the river course and lead the big water to rush across the Southern Army?" ”
Seeing Qin Yu nodded, Qin Tian said worriedly: "Although this plan is wonderful, but the diversion of river water, there will be water to irrigate farmland along the river in the future?" And how many agricultural areas along the Huaishui River will be swallowed up by floods? If you act like this, you are afraid that you will win the war and lose the hearts of the people! ”
Qin Yu had already considered this, but he didn't expect that his father would be a compassionate lord.
Helplessly, he spread his hands and said: "Father, you are thinking too much, it is winter, it is the period of water shortage, and I am afraid that it will be the freezing period in a while!" Why are we catching up! ”
"And the water level of the river is not very high, we just blew it up a gap, causing a monstrous flood to disintegrate the southern army's formation, and it will not cause much harm to the people in the two places! After the war, you only need to fill the gap, and the water level will be restored at the beginning of spring next year, and it will not affect spring ploughing! In the final analysis, it is better to win with the right and the odd! ”
In the end, Qin Tian still doesn't know as much as Qin Yu, and he is just talking, after all, the two armies are at war, and all the means that can promote the victory of the war can be used. He nodded and said, "Okay, what to do, you say." ”
Qin Tian nodded, then raised his legs and walked up the hill to repeatedly look at the terrain of the water, and wrote and painted for a long time, then pointed to a piece similar to the canyon area and said: "Dig from here, first dig up the outer layer of soil, and then blow it up with explosives!" ”
Qin Yu stepped aside, Qin Tian quickly arranged the task, and the soldiers took off their armor one after another, took off their hoes and shovels from their war horses and began to work.
Qin Yu was not idle, while beckoning the soldiers to dig down, he also took out the prepared lime and sprinkled it on the dam, as a boundary, the soldiers only needed to dig the area within the lime line.
Seeing Qin Yu busy going around, Qin Tian felt very nostalgic in his heart, his son was really good, he was really fucking like himself...
