Chapter 235: Digging a trench begins

The ancient siege of the city was nothing more than the offensive of gold, wood, water, fire and earth.

Gold is to attack, wood is to attack the heart, soil is to dig tunnels or something, water and fire are easy to understand.

Now, for the coalition army led by Yuan Shao, the gold and soil are used, and the people of the fire are used, as for the attack on the heart of the wood, the city is all a family, and they are not close to each other, they can't be used, and they can't use it. So, now the rest is water attack.

However, when Tian Feng said that the water would attack the Yellow River, Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, and Cai Mao were all shocked.

Liu Bei was the first to jump up, shaking his long earlobes like rattles, and waving his hand and shouting; "No, you break the Yellow River, the first one to drown is us." He gestured with his hands again, "Do you know why? When people are in the city, they can be blocked by walls for a while, and they can go to the roof without walls. ”

He shouted to Yuan Shao again: "What do we have? There were only tents, and when you went up, they collapsed. ”

Yuan Shao frowned, he had to break the city, and said, "You can find the high ground." ”

Liu Beixin said don't talk nonsense, and shouted: "This is the Luoyang Plain, even if there is a high ground, it can't accommodate these more than 300,000 soldiers and horses." He then said: "Yuan Gong, don't doubt me, I have no soldiers anyway, everything is for your good." ”

With his words, Yuan Shao and Cai Mao's hearts fell to the bottom, so they took their eyes and went to see Tian Feng.

Yuan Shao said dissatisfiedly: "Yuan Hao, your idea doesn't work, just like Xuande said, this is the rhythm of drowning yourself." ”

Everyone thought that Tian Feng would be ashamed, but they smiled and said, "Lord, everyone has misunderstood." The Yellow River is a planned and methodical breach that controls the river within the limits of our control. It will only cause damage to Luoyang City, not to ourselves. ”

As soon as everyone heard the spirit, Yuan Shao's eyes lit up. Said: "Tell me quickly, how to control it?" ”

Tian Feng said: "So, so, so, so, ......, let's dig an aqueduct, go straight to Luoyang City, and then break a small hole in the Yellow River and slowly release water." Let the water level in Luoyang City gradually rise. First, they couldn't drown themselves, and secondly, they rose slowly, maybe they hadn't really drowned, so Cao Cao and the others were scared and fled in Kaicheng. ”

He added: "Even if the allies can hold on, it will be difficult for the people to hold on, and once the people rebel, Luoyang City will be destroyed." ”

"Oops!" Liu Bei and the others lost their voices, revealing ecstasy.

The heart said that what Tian Feng said was too reasonable, and I would like to ask who can watch the water level continue to rise. Under the fear of death, I am afraid that I will run away as soon as possible, and I will not fight the soldiers of the people!

Yuan Shao slapped his face and said, "Clever plan, wonderful plan!" ”

As soon as Liu Bei saw his appearance, he was upset, and poured cold water and said: "This river is not easy to dig. ”

Who knows that Tian Feng smiled: "It has been calculated, and the nearest one only needs to dig twenty miles." On the other hand. Heavy rain has fallen, and the land has become wet. It's ten times easier to dig than when it's dry. ”

Yuan Shao laughed and said: "That's it, even after heavy rain, the water level has risen a lot, and the earth is also wet, God really helps me." ”

Tian Feng finally said: "You must be careful to guard the camp. Beware of an Allied attack out of the city. ”

"Yes!" Yuan Shao slapped his thigh, "Especially optimistic about grain and grass, this time, Gao Yuan and Cao Cao will let them drown inside if they don't leave Luoyang City." He went out of town. Call him back too. ”

Cai Mao pondered for a while, this strategy is still good, the two sides are allies after all, and he can't go. On the other hand, Liu Biao actually did not issue a mandatory order, but just let Cai Mao act at the opportunity. In this case, if Cai Mao still wants to leave, he will break the covenant. Jingzhou can't do Yuan Shao's six states, so Cai Mao can't go.

And Liu Bei doesn't care, he originally brought 3,000 soldiers, but now there are no soldiers. Staying can also show your morality, and if you don't stay, you will be completely offended. Therefore, Liu Bei didn't mention the matter of leaving.

In this regard, the coalition forces launched an operation, and Yuan Shao, Tian Feng, Liu Bei and others braved the rain to check the river and formulate a route for excavation.

A day later, the heavy rain stopped for three days and three nights, and the sun ran out again, showing its presence in a high-profile manner.

Luoyang City, Cao Cao's mansion.

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, this trick back to the carbine is too mysterious!" Cao Zhang held the big gun and looked at Gao Yuan with great admiration.

Gao Yuan came from later generations, and he was a senior weapon, so he naturally taught a few tricks of the Yang family gun at random for thousands of years, but Cao Zhang, who used the gun, was very happy.

At this time, Cao Zhi ran out and read: "The flying stream goes straight down to 3,000 feet, it is suspected that the Milky Way has fallen for nine days, good poetry, good poetry, you must go to see what waterfall this is." ”

Gao Yuan casually threw out some poems and poems, and conquered Cao Zhi.

At this time, Cao Pi also ran out, "Brother-in-law, can this utopian world really be realized?" ”

After a while, after the sky cleared, Cao Zhen and Xiahouba all came, surrounded Gao Yuan, and asked for advice, and said that he had learned the ability, and he wanted to make his father, uncle, and uncle impressed.

Gao Yuan was happy, but he began to scold in his heart, and said in his heart that he came here with me and became your mentor. As the saying goes, I taught the apprentice to starve to death of the master, and I taught you that although you will not starve to death, you are all in the army, and you will follow Cao Cao to beat me, which is even more ruthless than starving me.

However, after all, it is a family, and it is impossible to say it without teaching.

At this moment, Xiahoudun appeared, one eye, but it was more powerful, he took out the demeanor of an uncle, and said: "You little rabbit cubs, don't make trouble, the lord wants to discuss the military situation with Meng Yan." ”

When everyone heard this, they dispersed, and they were very envious, and said that my brother-in-law has achieved such an achievement, when will I be able to become a general in the army?

"Niece-in-law, please ......." Like Xiahoudun and others, they also admired Gao Yuan very much.

Council Chamber.

Cao Cao sat down in the hall, Guo Jia and others got up and saluted to welcome Gao Yuan's arrival.

When Gao Yuan sat down opposite Cao Cao, Cao Cao frowned and said, "Virtuous son-in-law, news has been coming in the past two days, Yuan Shao and a group of people have been running to the Yellow River all day long. His eyebrows jumped, his eyes rolled, and he said, "Could it be that Yuan Benchu was fighting the idea of a virtuous son-in-law and a state?" ”

Gao Yuan was shocked in his heart, but then he stabilized and said, "Yuan Shao will be attacked from front and back when he enters my state from here, and he will never do this." I'm afraid he has other plans to go to the Yellow River. ”

At this time, a junior colonel rushed over, "Report the ......, lord, Tanma sent back the news that Yuan Jun had more than 100,000 and began to dig a ditch on the south bank of Mengjin, I don't know what he is going to do." ”

"Start digging a trench?"

It was also in just two or three seconds, Gao Yuan, Cao Cao, Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others changed their faces one after another.

"It's not a good thing, this is to flood the city!" (To be continued......)
