Since ancient times, the Yellow River has been said to be "two breaks in three years, and one diversion in a hundred years". Since the beginning of historical records, the Yellow River has always been accompanied by disasters, and the sons and daughters of China have struggled and fought against the floods, and have painstakingly explored a good cure for the flooding of the Yellow River. Some people even say that a history of disasters in China is also a history of controlling pornography.

Since there is a clear historical record, the recorded floods of the Yellow River basically occurred in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, and it is rare to see them occur in the middle and upper reaches.

"Could it be that the two elders are still hesitating?" Seeing that the two brothers were silent, Lotte asked.

For Rakuten's follow-up. The seed master Dao also felt helpless, and said with a wry smile: "The book in the music, it is not a secret, Tong Shuai once had a proposal to decide the Yellow River to irrigate Lingzhou and Xingqing in the song, but was vetoed by His Majesty. ”

"Your Majesty is benevolent!" Lotte bowed his hand in the direction of Biandu, and pouted disdainfully: "The advice proposed by Tong Shuai and His Majesty is still told by the lower officials first!" ”

I originally expected that Tong Guan's proposal was proposed by his subordinates, but he didn't expect it to be proposed by Lotte, and he didn't expect that it was Lotte, who seemed to be a literate scholar, who killed the Xixia people, and was more ruthless than the generals who fought on the battlefield and often saw the casualties of their subordinates.

"Thirty-eight years ago, in the fourth year of Yuanfeng, my Great Song Dynasty Wulu Xia ended in failure, and the soldiers lost more than 200,000 yuan, and the loss of baggage was incalculable!" Lotte continued, glanced at the Jingyuan Road army stationed down, and said in a low voice: "It's not that the lower officials are disrespectful to the two bosses, will the two bosses watch history repeat themselves, and see these Tongze turn into dry bones and spring boudoir dreamers on the banks of the Wuding River?" ”

The army under the two of them is called the Seed Army, not only because the two brothers are strict in governing the army, but also regard their subordinates as if they were their own, and they are naturally deeply loved by their subordinates. How can you not care about the life and death of these tens of thousands of soldiers.

I have to mention that during the Jingkang Change, the seed division led the army to aid Taiyuan, and the soldiers led by his subordinates had to ask for a reward as a threat, otherwise they would not go to Taiyuan to fight, and the seed division had promised it, but in the end, because the reward was not reached, the soldiers and soldiers dispersed, so that the soldiers were martyred in the seed division.

In later generations, some people used this as an excuse to criticize the lack of strict management of the army in the seed division, etc., but in fact, in the battle where the seed division died, the soldiers led by him were all the western army of Yan Yan Road, and the former head of the Yan Yan Road Army was precisely Liu Yanqing, who was not strict in governing the army.

Xuanhe cut Liao, Tong Guan didn't like the cultivation of the master, so he replaced the cultivation of the Taoist with Liu Yanqing as the general, and even the looseness of the army when Liu Yanqing unified the army, even the surrendered Guo Yaoshi couldn't stand it, and asked what kind of soldiers and horses on the Yanyan Road could be led by Liu Yanqing, so that some people said that the management of the army in the seed division was not strict, and let the seed master carry this pot.

For Lotte's proposal, the two brothers are still hesitating, although the flooding of Lingzhou and Xingqing, Huizong Zhao Ji did not issue a holy decree to strictly prohibit it, but he said it orally, and it was implemented downward by Tong Guan, which really made the two feel embarrassed.

When Lotte heard this, he couldn't help but scold Zhao Ji in his heart for being the king of the dead country, and he always acted wishfully to the enemy with the kindness of a woman, and Qinzong Zhao Huan inherited the soft bones of his parents, if he could actively fight against the Jin people, he would not be finally taken to the northeast of the bitter cold land in the extreme north by the Jurchens to suffer, and even the corpse was burned to half coke to take the corpse oil and light the lamp, which was really self-inflicted.

"It is recorded in the "Historical Records": In the twenty-second year of Qin Yingzheng, Qin irrigated the Great Liang, captured the King of Wei, and the Wei State in the Six Kingdoms was destroyed!" Lotte continued, but after speaking, he just watched the two brothers stop talking, but the meaning is very obvious, Qin Shi Huang has done this, what should future generations follow suit.

Lotte said that Qin Guan Daliang, how did the two brothers who were familiar with military books not know, referring to the destruction of Wei by Qin's unification of the Six Kingdoms, and the Liang of Wei was the Kaifeng of later generations. When Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms, Qin took Wang Ben as the main general, and soon attacked the capital of Wei, under the city of Daliang, but the city of Dahe was strong, and the grain and grass in the city were sufficient.

Although the girder city is solid, but the girder has a congenital deficiency in the terrain, the girder is located on the shore of the Yellow River, the rolling torrent of the Yellow River, just a few miles away from the city rumbling, and the terrain of the girder city, but far lower than the height of the riverbed of the Yellow River, which made Wang Ben have the idea of flooding the girder.

Therefore, Wang Ben ordered the soldiers to dig a canal in the northwest of Daliang City, attract the water of the Yellow River, and build an embankment to block its downstream. It was the early spring, it was the spring flood season, the Qin army braved the rain to build, Wang Ben personally urged, the canal was finally completed, and the spring rain lasted for more than ten days, and the water became more and more powerful. With Wang Ben's order, the embankment broke through the ditch, the flood overflowed, and Daliang City suddenly became a country. The city wall was soaked in water for a long time, and it inevitably collapsed, and the Qin soldiers took advantage of the situation to enter, so the strong beams of the city finally broke.

In terms of geography, Lingzhou is very similar to the Liang of the capital of Wei at that time, and is also located on the bank of the Yellow River, but the difference is that the Liang is in the middle of the Yellow River, while Lingzhou is in the upper reaches. And it is autumn at this time, not the time when the Yellow River is at its most prosperous, but Lotte wants to use not only the water of the Yellow River, but also the Lingzhou River, and it is not difficult to irrigate Lingzhou with two and one water.

In fact, except for a very few cities with great strategic value, the walls of most cities are made of mud according to local conditions.

Lingzhou City is located in the Hetao Plain, naturally there are no mountain stones, using mountain stones to build, the cost is also unaffordable for the Xixia people, so the city wall of Lingzhou City is made of rammed earth, naturally can not withstand the long-term immersion of floods. In fact, even if the city walls could withstand the floods, the people in the city could not afford to survive.

After hearing about the power of the Song army's firearms, the soldiers and people of the Acropolis near Lingzhou City all retreated to Lingzhou City, and the number of people in the city more than doubled compared with before.

These things, not only Lotte, but also the two of them are also very clear in their hearts, but Huizong Zhao Ji has such an edict, and how to implement this flood plan makes the two of them silent. In fact, the two of them are extremely impressed by Lotte, from the battle of the Zhenwu Army to the outwitting of Gai Zhuwei, although Lotte is young, the wisdom he shows is by no means what these experienced people have in a hundred battles.

"Come to think of it, Your Majesty also remembered the old things about Qin Yingzheng, and deliberately refused to act according to this plan!" The planter said helplessly.

Soon after Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms, Huizong Zhao Ji obviously cared about Qin Shi Huang's tyranny and did not dare to act according to the plan, which Lotte laughed at.

"Brother!" The seed master coughed lightly, interrupting the embarrassment at the moment, and said: "I have seen the defense in front of Lingzhou City, Lingzhou City is not only strong and tall, with the previous lesson of Mingsha City, the moat outside Lingzhou City has been dug with one more, one large and one small, making Lingzhou City outside the range of our army's crossbow and trebuchet, as for the outside of the city, many large and small potholes have been dug, which makes it quite difficult for our army to fight. ”

Seed Master Dao nodded, with these centaurs under his command, it was obviously unwise to storm Lingzhou, but the other few steps were still far away at this time, and it was impossible to support him.

Lotte said: "During the Renzong Dynasty, Li Yuanhao, a member of the party, rebelled against the Song Dynasty and established himself for more than 80 years, and it was really unrighteous to conquer the land of my Great Song Dynasty before he became independent......

Listening to Lotte's official tone, the planter shook his head and said very unhappily: "Le Zhongshu, say what you want to say, don't beat around the bush!" ”

Scholars want to express some meaning, always put out a bunch of big truths, and then say their thoughts in a roundabout way, although they are also from a scholar's background, but the most annoying thing about the farmer who has lived in the military camp for a long time is the scholar, plus Lotte recognized himself as a righteous grandfather, and it is not an outrage to scold him.

Hehe smiled, Lotte said: "Righteous grandfather, you know that your grandson married the princess of the Xia people, out of identity scruples, even if you return to the court, you will not be reused by Your Majesty, so your grandson thinks that your grandfather might as well call the court sick at this moment, and Sun Er is fully responsible for this matter of irrigating Lingzhou......"

"What a bastard, how can the old man be that kind of person!" didn't wait for Lotte to finish speaking, and ushered in the reprimand of the seed master.

"So, my grandfather agreed to my grandson's suggestion!" Lotte was overjoyed.

The planter said: "You are right, it is inconvenient to march and fight in winter, and our army is a long-distance army, and the rear supply is even more disadvantageous. ”

……

60,000 Jingyuan road soldiers, by the division of the Dao more than 1,000 elite light cavalry from time to time out guerrillas, besiege and kill those out of Lingzhou into the Western Xia scouts to explore the military situation, and left thousands of soldiers who can use firearms to use the arm bow, catapult to prevent the Western Xia people from possible sneak attacks, under the more than 50,000 horses all began to dig the Yellow River embankment, and build embankments to block the Lingzhou River.

When the ancients were fighting, there was the word "whipping and plugging the stream", just imagine what kind of scene it would be like for more than 50,000 soldiers to throw a mud bag to block the Lingzhou River......

The Yellow River is good at silting, good decision, good migration, and is known as Xingqing Mansion and Lingzhou, which is the middle stream of the Yellow River.

Thundered......

Suddenly, a loud bang sounded, and I saw that the Yellow River embankment was blown out of a gap, and the yellow Yellow River water was like a fierce beast out of the cage, more like a yellow dragon that was out of bondage, rushing and roaring towards Lingzhou City; At the same time, on the other side, there was also a deafening roar on the embankment that had been built to enclose the Lingzhou River, and a huge gap was blown out on the embankment, and the cyan river water gushing out splashed white waves when it hit the center, winding towards Lingzhou City like a silver dragon.

In this time and space, this is a day that will go down in history, not only because the water irrigates Lingzhou so simply, in fact, the water irrigated Lingzhou is not worth mentioning at all in the war, it is worth mentioning in future generations that the water irrigated Lingzhou created the first time in human history, the first time that explosives were used for blasting. So far, the explosion science that emerged later in this time and space has to be written on the thick topic of the explosion in the textbooks, and it is necessary to mention the name of Rakuten, and call Lotte the originator of explosives.

After the soldiers under the command of Lotte dug down the Yellow River embankment for a large section, they stopped digging, and then Lotte ordered to place a large amount of explosives on the embankment, and used the method of blasting to cause the Yellow River to burst.
