Chapter Ninety-Four: A Void
As we all know, military camps should be built in places with sufficient water sources, so the military camps established by Du Chen are no exception. Water source is the foundation of life, so Du Chen specially chose a station close to the river.
Du Chen's choice was not bad, but he didn't think that the rainstorms would continue one after another. At first, Du Chen's choice was not wrong, but with the continuous rainstorm, Du Chen's choice was wrong. Because in the upper reaches of the river, a team of soldiers in leather armor are guarding something, and Jia Xu, who Du Chen doesn't want to see the most, is also inspecting something in a robe.
If Du Chen was here, he would be shocked. Because Jia Xu built a dam upstream and cut off the flow of water, and the reason for cutting off the flow of water is obvious, that is, to destroy the dam and flood Cao Jun after the actual maturity.
The rain for more than ten days is very obvious, and the dam that Jia Xu sent people to supervise has accumulated a lot of rainwater. Jia Xu nodded with satisfaction, obviously he was very satisfied with the situation in front of him. After instructing the soldiers who were guarding here a few words, Jia Xu turned around and left.
A few more days passed, but the rain showed no signs of stopping. And the uneasiness in Du Chen's heart is getting stronger and stronger, in this regard, Du Chen took out the guy who used to eat? What's that, you ask? That is the tortoise shell and copper coin, Du Chen once again used the Qimen Dunjia. As soon as he finished the calculation, Du Chen was suddenly in a hurry, and hurriedly said to Dian Wei beside him: "Evil is coming, go and find Zihe, Chen has something important to discuss with Zihe." Also, inform the whole army to quickly withdraw the camp and prepare to leave here. ”
Du Chen looked very anxious, and Dian Wei was also a little stunned when he saw Du Chen's expression for the first time. You must know that since Dian Wei met Du Chen, it was the first time that Du Chen was so anxious. Dian Wei was stunned. Therefore, Dian Wei hurriedly ran towards the camp.
A moment later. Cao Chun hurriedly ran over and came to Du Chen's side. Cao Chun opened his mouth and asked, "Sir, what happened, listen to the evil, you look for me." Seeing the evil expression, he was very anxious, and he didn't know what was going on? ”
Hearing Cao Chun's question, Du Chen walked out of the tent, pointed to the river in front of him and asked, "Zihe, do you think there is anything different in front of you?" ”
Cao Chun glanced at Du Chen's point, but he didn't know what Du Chen meant. Then Cao Chun shook his head and said, "Sir." The child and do not know. ”
Du Chen was also stunned when he heard this, and then secretly blamed himself, and then Du Chen said: "It's been raining for nearly a month, but the river hasn't risen much, isn't it very strange?" ”
After listening to Du Chen's words, Cao Chun suddenly realized, and then Cao Chun said: "According to Mr., Zhang Xiu plans to attack by water?" ”
Du Chen nodded heavily, and then Du Chen said, "Zihe." You immediately take the soldiers of the White Tiger Battalion to the upper reaches to investigate. ”
"In that case, the last general will obey the order." Cao Chun nodded, and then returned to the barracks to prepare to take people to investigate. And Du Chen also returned to the barracks with Cao Chun, and at this time, the entire barracks was in a hurry.
Due to Du Chen's decision from Dian Wei. Although everyone was a little confused, and it was still raining heavily in the sky, the soldiers did not dare to go against Du Chen's feelings. They are preparing to evacuate this place.
Seeing the appearance of the entire military camp, Du Chen finally nodded with satisfaction. But at this time, I still dare not relax. You must know that the river not far away is like a sharp sword on your neck, and you don't know when it will hit your head. This Du Chen was worried.
After a while, Cao Chun led the soldiers of the White Tiger Battalion to the upper reaches of the river at a rapid pace, and the entire military camp was also under Du Chen's high pressure, which made the soldiers of the whole battalion quickly pack up the entire camp tent, and then Du Chen led the soldiers to begin to retreat towards the rear. Cao Jun retreated quickly under the supervision of his husband, while Cao Chun led the soldiers of the White Tiger Battalion to quickly cover the river and rush towards the top of the river. The closer he got upstream, the heavier Cao Chun's mood became. It is clear that Mister's guess was correct, and there was clearly activity upstream, and it was clearly intentional.
Realizing that the matter was big, Cao Chun was also in a hurry. If Mr. Assumption is true, then the matter is really serious. As the saying goes, fire and water are merciless, as long as the upstream dam is dug up, the flood will definitely surge. When that time comes, no matter how many people there are, they will not be able to stop the relentlessness of the flood.
Therefore, Cao Chun hurriedly accelerated the speed of the march. "You have to feel it before the enemy digs the dam, otherwise the matter is really irreparable." Cao Chun thought anxiously. However, although Cao Chun thought so, he didn't dare to guarantee it in his heart. After all, it has been raining for so long, and the rain must have accumulated a lot, and who can guarantee that the enemy army will not dig the embankment at this time.
Now is the time to race against time, and Du Chen does not dare to slack off at all.
And just as Cao Chun was racing against time to run upstream along the river, Jia Xu appeared on the dam in the rain again. Looking at the ocean behind the dam, Jia Xu was suddenly very satisfied. Now the time is ripe for the flood to come out if you dig the dam yourself. No matter how clever that Du Chen is, it is impossible for him to stop this raging flood, so as long as the embankment is dug up, Du Chen will definitely die, and there are thousands of elite soldiers under Du Chen.
Although attacking with water will hurt Tianhe, as long as the enemy army can be destroyed, even if it is against Tianhe, it will not hesitate. Thinking of this, Jia Xu's nerves couldn't help but be a little crazy.
"Come on, dig a levee for Xu, and ask for flooding Cao's army." Jia Xu said to the soldiers around him in high spirits. But when the soldiers heard Jia Xu's words, they were a little submissive. People's hearts are made of flesh, and the thought of digging the levee will cause the people along the river to be flooded, which makes it a little difficult for the soldiers to accept. The soldiers present are all from the Wancheng area, and their parents, relatives and friends also live in the Wancheng area, so they can be described as authentic Wancheng people.
Everyone knows the importance of water sources, so there are no longer a few villages near water sources. If the levees were to be excavated, the villages downstream of the river would definitely be affected. At worst, they can be displaced, and at worst, families will be destroyed. This is not what these authentic Wancheng people want to see. So when the soldiers heard Jia Xu asking them to dig the embankment, there was a trace of resistance in everyone's hearts.
Seeing that everyone didn't move, Jia Xu sighed lightly. With Jia Xu's intelligence. Naturally, you can know what the soldiers are trying to write. In fact, he also has some doubts about this in his heart, but since he is in troubled times. You should have the consciousness of being in troubled times, and troubled times will never disappear because of someone's soft-heartedness. So although Jia Xu also has a lot of reluctance in his heart. But he has the consciousness of being in troubled times. Therefore, seeing that everyone did not move, Jia Xu said again: "You are all doing something, and you should not hurry up." Xu also knows that you are reluctant to wait, but if you don't destroy Cao Jun, you will become the soul of Cao Jun's sword! ”
Hearing Jia Xu's questioning, everyone looked at me, and then they all showed a look of determination.
"Have you heard what the military advisor said? I didn't dig the embankment quickly to flood Cao's army. The lieutenant general beside Jia Xu shouted. And all the soldiers came to their senses and prepared to start digging the embankment.
And at this time, a subtle voice reached Jia Xu's ears. It's not very loud. And with a hint of dullness. And as time went on, the sound got louder and more muffled.
After listening carefully for a while, Jia Xu secretly said bad in his heart. It is clear that this is the voice of the cavalry. And the pair of cavalrymen rushed towards themselves. Wancheng also has cavalry, but it will definitely not attack at this time.
Affected by the heavy rain, the ground was slippery and muddy, which was an absolute no-no for cavalrymen who were known for their speed. Just one carelessly. You may slip and fall because of this. If the horse rolls over, the cavalry is useless.
Since it is not a soldier under his own account, it must be the enemy's. And since it is the enemy's, compared to what Du Chen has already discovered. And specially ordered someone to come and investigate. Thinking of this, Jia Xu was shocked.
I thought I was doing it very secretively, but I couldn't think of it. Still can't escape Du Chen's head.
In just an instant, the soldiers of the White Tiger Battalion had already rushed to the front of Zhang Xiujun. Although the rainy weather was not conducive to the cavalry march. But this is not difficult for the White Tiger Battalion, and there is another point that is particularly important. In order to improve the riding skills of the soldiers of the White Tiger Battalion, Du Chen also sorted out the polo of later generations.
Puff, puff, one arrow after another slashed through the water and shot towards Zhang Xiujun. Zhang Xiujun on the dam did not react, and soon someone was shot by an arrow.
Seeing this, a trace of cold sweat broke out on Jia Xu's forehead. Without the introduction of others, Jia Xu already knew that it was the White Tiger Camp who came to stop him.
However, it was said that the soldiers of the White Tiger Battalion found Zhang Xiu's soldiers who were trying to dig up the embankment, and Cao Chun's heart suddenly trembled. Looking at the situation in front of me, I am afraid that if I come a little later, the downstream will become a vast ocean. In this regard, Cao Chun was furious, if Du Chen hadn't noticed it earlier, I am afraid that he would have been swept into the rolling flood.
In addition, Cao Chun also hated Zhang Xiu's plan for being too vicious. Behind the embankment is an ocean, and if it is really excavated, every qiē below the river will be affected.
shot several of Zhang Xiujun's soldiers, and Cao Chun saw Jia Xu who was being protected. Seeing this situation, how did Cao Chun not know that the person was an important figure in Zhang Xiujun, so Cao Chun didn't say a word, pulled his bow and shot an arrow at Jia Xu.
was stared at by Cao Chun, and Jia Xu's hair suddenly exploded. That soldier of the Cao army was quite terrifying, and just one look brought a chill to himself. Subsequently, Jia Xu was a little helpless, he knew that it was because the guards around him betrayed him.
But this is also helpless, can it be considered a mistake for someone to protect themselves. But this is not the time to dwell on this problem, seeing Cao Chun pulling his bow and shooting, Jia Xu knew that Cao Chun must be aiming at himself. Jia Xu hurriedly took a step to the side, but it was too late. Originally, Cao Chun wanted to shoot Jia Xu's head, but he didn't expect to shoot Jia Xu's shoulder.
After taking a few steps back with the remaining strength of the arrow, Jia Xu felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. And after Jia Xu was shot by Cao Chun, the guards around him reflected it. Everyone hurriedly used their bodies to protect Jia Xu, and then escorted the seriously injured Jia Xu to retreat to the rear.
Cao Chungang wanted to draw a bow and shoot arrows, but when he saw that Jia Xu had been protected by the people, he could only give up. After all, there are still people on the embankment who are destroying the dam, and Cao Chun must solve these people as soon as possible.
Seeing that the soldiers of the Cao army did not chase after him, all the generals who protected Jia Xu breathed a sigh of relief. That soldier is really strong, if that Cao Jun's soldier chases after him, his own people will definitely not be that person's opponent. (To be continued......)
