The sky has not yet brightened, the war drums outside Xuzhou City rumbled, and the Tartars rose up again to attack, and the momentum was even more fierce than before. The tide-like tartars rushed towards the city, and the city had already been replaced by An**'s new force. Ma Jinzhong and Jin Shengheng are in charge of the east gate and the west gate.

The soldiers shot frantically, shot bravely, and the Tartars under the city still fought to the death, they climbed the ladder, the ants attached to the siege of the city, and the stones on the head of the city fell down one by one, and the strings of Tartars turned into meat pies. Occasionally, a soldier was struck by a Tartar's bow and arrow and fell to the city.

The battle between the two sides became more and more fierce, and the fighting became more and more bloody. However, Gu Zhenhua didn't care about the battle in the city, he knew in his heart that this was just an eye-catching game.

The young farmer who ran to the city to report the news was called Xun Zhongyu, just last year, Xuzhou was facing the flooding of the Yellow River, Gu Zhenhua once personally commanded the disaster relief, successfully avoided a tragedy of city destruction and death.

Afterwards, An ** went to Henan and shifted the direction of the exhibition, but the people inside and outside Xuzhou respected An ** like a god, especially many young people at that time, they all witnessed Gu Zhenhua braving the torrential rain and fighting on the embankment with them.

"Engong, the villain is the person who gathers the canal ten miles away in Xuzhou, last year, our whole family was scared to death, my father gave the first person in the family a wooden board, if the Yellow River burst, whether it is dead or alive, all rely on the board! If it weren't for the efforts of you and An**'s military master, I'm afraid we would have fed the carp a long time ago! ”

Gu Zhenhua also remembered the past, and couldn't help but smile: "Protecting the people, this is the duty of a soldier, how are you doing now?" ”

Xun Zhongyu secretly raised his eyes and looked around. tremblingly, he lowered his head again: "It's good, it's good!" ”

Of course, Gu Zhenhua saw his hesitation, and smiled slightly: "If there are any difficulties, Benjue will definitely help you solve them, but there is one thing right now." That is, to drive out the Tartars first! ”

"That's right!" Xun Zhongyu hurriedly said: "Engong, when the villain and his brother were fishing by the river, they saw a few Tartars patrolling the river, and we were so frightened that we hid in the artemisia grass. As a result, I heard someone say that the Kuishan embankment was to be dug and the water was released to flood Xuzhou City. These Tartars are really not a thing, and last year Engong helped us defend the Kuishan embankment. They're going to break it, so be careful! ”

Xun Zhongyu said indignantly: "I went home to sue my father, he asked me to come to Xuzhou immediately to deliver the letter, he said that even if he lost his life, he couldn't let An **, who helped us, suffer!" ”

Gu Zhenhua stretched out his hand and patted the simple man, and said with a smile: "Don't worry." The Tartars have never taken advantage of Benjue, and their plot will not succeed! ”

After finishing speaking, Gu Zhenhua asked Xun Zhongyu to be taken down, and he immediately issued an order to find all the civil and military forces in Xuzhou City.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there has just been a report from the righteous people that the Tartars are going to release water to flood Xuzhou. What can you do? ”

"Ahh He Tengjiao walked in from the outside, and when he heard the news, he immediately jumped like thunder, and he was so angry that the goats were shaking around.

"This can't be done, the Yellow River will break, Xuzhou will definitely not be protected, Qianli Zeguo, the people downstream will also suffer, and I don't know how many people will die. Ji Guogong, you can't ignore this kind of thing. Lao Futiyì's army immediately attacked, and drove the Tartars north of the Yellow River before they dug the embankment, and in any case, to ensure the safety of Xuzhou. ”

Huang Degong rolled his eyes. said: "Lord He, there are tens of thousands of Tartars, and they may dig the embankment at any time. Maybe the grandfather of the country here has just attacked, and that side has been dug up in advance. ”

Hu Maozhen also said: "Yes, back then, Guan Yunchang released water to flood the Seventh Army, and the Tartars also wanted to replace the soldiers with water, this trick is vicious enough, we can't guard against it, but we must not act recklessly, otherwise it will only get worse."

He Tengjiao was still unconvinced, and snorted angrily: "No matter what, you can't sit still, otherwise the old man will personally lead the troops and definitely not be a drowned fish and turtle!" ”

Gu Zhenhua sneered: "Lord He, you better don't make a mess, you urgently need to figure out now, what kind of impact will it have when the Tartars dig the Yellow River embankment, and you can prescribe the right medicine!" ”

As soon as he heard this, Wu Kaijie's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said with a smile: "Grandpa Guo, I think of someone. ”

Gu Zhenhua's face also showed a smile: "I also thought of someone!" ”

"Grandpa Guo, it seems that we have thought of it together!"

……

"Mr. Pan, what do you think will happen if the Tartars dig up the Kuishan embankment?"

Pan Yueshan laughed: "Grandpa Guo, you may not believe it when you say a word, if the Tartars dare to do this, they are digging their own graves!" ”

Pan Yueshan was the consultant of Xuzhou water control last year, and Gu Zhenhua originally wanted to invite the old man to Henan and let him help build water conservancy, but Pan Yueshan did not go on the grounds of old age and frailty, but he sent his two sons to Henan.

"Really?" Gu Zhenhua asked in surprise.

Pan Yueshan nodded: "Grandpa Guo, the amount of water in the Yellow River this year is far less than last year, and last year, we dug a ditch to drain the water and widened the branch water. As a matter of common sense, as long as precautions are taken, the river may not flood the city. Of course, there is also a risk, that is, after such a long battle, the artillery bombards all day long, and the old man is worried that there will be dark cracks in the city wall, so the danger will be much greater. ”

Wu Kaijie said on the side: "Mr. Pan, then we will send people to inspect the city wall immediately, and repair the loopholes, won't we be safe and sound?" ”

Pan Yueshan laughed: "When leading troops to fight, don't they all pay attention to the impermanence of water and the impermanence of soldiers?" It's too conservative just to take precautions, right? ”

As soon as he saw the old man's smug appearance, Gu Zhenhua knew that this old gentleman must have a good idea!

"Hahaha, Mr. Pan, if you have any ideas, just say it, and Benjue will definitely adopt it."

Pan Yueshan said with a smile: "Grandpa Guo, I don't dare to say that it will definitely work, but I still have some ideas." This Tartar wants to flood Xuzhou with the Yellow River, but this water can also flood their military camp, which is nothing more than four words to guide the situation! ”

When it comes to professionalism, Pan Yueshan is particularly confident, the old man knows Xuzhou well, he pointed to the map and smiled: "Xuzhou is low in the north and high in the south, if the Tartars want to release water, they must flood the northern city." But last year, Grandpa Guo sent a lot of cement, which built the wall quickly, was unusually strong, and was not afraid of flooding. As long as the walls were immediately strengthened and raised, and the water was blocked, it would inevitably flow back to the Tartar camp. The eastern part of their garrison is not very high, so the Tartars are lifting stones to hit their own feet! ”

After listening to Pan Yueshan's words, Gu Zhenhua's eyes suddenly lit up, and Wu Kaijie screamed even more.

"Grandpa Guo, Mr. Pan's idea is too good, if we really flood the Tartar barracks, we are attacking immediately, and we will ensure that Azig will not be able to eat and walk around! Mr. Pan, you have done a great job! ”

Pan Yueshan shook his head: "The idea of the old man is not clever, if the tartar is drowned, the people around him will also suffer from the flood, but the damage of the tartar is far worse than the flood beast, the old man has to think of such an idea of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred!" ”

Water and fire are ruthless, Gu Zhenhua can't help but think about it, he is pacing back and forth on the ground, Fang Jianming and Wu Kaijie's eyes are nailed to him, whether to do it or not, it depends on his words!

After a while, Gu Zhenhua sighed: "Jianming, immediately draw up two plans, one is to strengthen the city wall, and the other is to help the people." As for Wu Kaijie, he immediately made a battle plan, just waiting for the Tartar to be flooded, and immediately attacked, and wiped out all these beasts for me! ”

"Yes!"

……

With Gu Zhenhua's order, all the people in Xuzhou moved.

In order to strengthen the defense of Xuzhou, Wu Kaijie built three small cement kilns in the city, which are high in energy consumption and high pollution. However, it did accumulate enough cement to strengthen the city walls.

Pan Yueshan and Fang Jianming commanded separately, and all the people in the city joined the ranks of Heni. In less than two days, the interior of Xuzhou's northern city was plastered with a thick layer of cement.

Then, in order to prevent the city wall from collapsing, a three-zhang high and five-zhang wide embankment was erected inside. In order to repair this embankment, the people of Xuzhou demolished their houses, bricks, and timbers.

Xuzhou outside loose and tight, in the full preparation for the war, suddenly the weather has changed, cloudy and cloudy, in an instant, the torrential rain is like a note, between heaven and earth, are filled with rain, the Yellow River is visible to the naked eye, rising rapidly, surging white waves, beating the thin embankment.

……

"Hahaha, God help me, Ming Dog is finished!" Azig shouted wildly, and Shang Kexi was even more proud.

"Prince Ying, dig the Kuishan embankment tonight, you just wait to see the show!"

At night, more than 2,000 Tartars, each with their own tools, suddenly rushed to the Kuishan embankment, and dug frantically, until the third watch was chiseled open with a hole more than two feet long. A turbid current slanted down, and the two tartars on the embankment did not stand and fell into the current.

Of course, Azig didn't care about this loss, there was only a yellow water dragon in his eyes, roaring towards Xuzhou, rushing over with teeth and claws.

"Gu Zhenhua, you coward, dare to dig up your father's grave, but you dare not admit it, when this king catches you, I will cut you with a thousand knives and break your body into thousands of pieces, I will never let you go!"

In the middle of the river, the water poured down, and soon rushed to the city wall of Xuzhou, and the outside of the city quickly became a Zeguo. However, to Azig's disappointment, the walls did not collapse with a bang, but stood proudly against the raging river. Gradually, the river became higher and higher, and more and more.

Shang Kexi was still comforting Azig and said with a smile: "Prince Ying, don't worry, even if it is soaked like this, Xuzhou will not last a few days!" ”

Just as they were vowing, suddenly their men ran over frantically, and they were covered in mud and water.

"Lord Wang, something is wrong, the river has returned and flooded our military camp!"
