Chapter 904: Flooded Xindu (I)
But it didn't light up when it was daybreak. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
After a night of rapid marching, the Shu army finally completed the transfer within the specified time.
Now the five armies of the Shu army have been assigned to more than a dozen places, and they are even far away, Fu Tong and the Wudang Fei army moved to a low post, on the Jizhong Plain, it is very difficult to find some high grounds, and this low post is only a little higher than the surrounding low-lying plains.
There was no moonlight, no starlight, and the sky was even darker than the earth, and according to the time given by the hourglass, this point should be almost the time of the rising sun, but the sky and the earth were still shrouded in darkness, and not even the dawn of the stars could be seen.
Zhang Le looked at the sky inexplicably, and a drop of water hit his face, and there was a cool feeling.
"Oh, it's raining." Zhang Le muttered.
More raindrops poured down from the sky, and the Shu army who had experienced this summer moxibustion seemed to be a little excited, and the rain represented the coolness of the weather, and this kind of hot weather was really fed up.
Fu Yi didn't care about enjoying the joy of a long drought and a rainy day, and ordered the Shu army to camp immediately. Only then did the soldiers of the Shu army realize that they had just arrived at the low post, and they had not had time to set up camp, and when the Shu army set up their tents and drilled in, they had already been drenched in soup by the pouring rain.
"Is this what the eldest brother said is a good opportunity to break the enemy?" Zhang Le said with some pain, isn't it just raining, what's the fuss, dare to love the unexpected surprise that Liu Yin said, it is a rain, this rain has something to do with breaking the enemy, can you expect a heavy rain to wash the Huns away?
"Wait, Ziyue, you said ten days ago, Wen Xuan told you that there will be unexpected surprises in ten days, and today is the tenth day?" Fu Yan seemed to think of something and asked.
"Yes, Big Brother said that ten days ago, but I don't think there's anything to make a fuss about the next rain."
Fu Yan looked up at the sky, although it was no longer so dark, it was still dark and dreary, and the rain tended to fall heavier and heavier, looking at this sign, it would not stop for a day and a half.
Being able to judge the weather changes after ten days, it is already a few people who can do it, in this regard, Prime Minister Zhuge is a genius, he has accurately predicted that there will be a month of rain, so as to skillfully retreat Cao Zhen's 100,000 army, in the earlier years, Zhuge Liang also staged a good show of borrowing arrows from grass boats, but also because he accurately knew that there would be heavy fog on the river three days later, Liu Yin could have known that there would be such a heavy rain ten days ago, and its foresight and prediction are breathtaking.
The most difficult to grasp the three elements of victory, such as time, place, and people, is not the other, but the time of day in the first place, the will of heaven is unpredictable, and the power of heaven is difficult to judge has become a consensus of people, and the most important time has also become the most difficult thing to grasp, and once the change of the time of the earth is successfully predicted, then the balance of the victory or defeat of the war will be completely tilted over.
Fu Yan only understood the reason why Liu Yin wanted them to move in time at this moment, it was because of this heavy rain, but the ordinary heavy rain should not attract Liu Yin's attention, unless it was the kind of extremely heavy rain, or even the kind of heavy rain that could cause floods, now it seems that Liu Yin ordered the troops to move to the high ground to deal with the huge flood.
Fu Yan couldn't help but be both afraid and relieved, and was afraid that if the Shu army could not predict this sudden rainstorm in advance, it would probably fall into an ocean and suffer a catastrophe. It is gratifying that Liu Yin is not only familiar with military affairs, but also familiar with astronomy and geography, and is a genius in ancient and modern times.

It is not difficult to master a little weather forecasting ability, Liu Yin had a special study in the special forces in his previous life, through the changes of the wind and clouds in the sky, as well as the reflection of some animals on the ground, Liu Yin can grasp the weather changes in the next few days, especially when there is heavy rain, those snakes and ants can react much smarter than humans.
Liu Yin grasped this and successfully predicted the change in the weather, so as to save the Shu army in the low-lying area from the catastrophe before the heavy rain came.
This kind of ability can be said to be a miraculous "divine skill" in this era, Zhuge Liang is regarded as a "god man" because he can know the sky and break the yin and yang, in Liu Yin's view, there is a bit of a magic stick, isn't it just to understand the weather forecast, why is it so exaggerated?
However, because of the ability to predict the weather in advance, the impact on the war is not insignificant, such as this heavy rainstorm, it is precisely because Liu Yin can predict in advance that the loss of the Shu army can be avoided.
Again, since the Huns could not grasp this news, they were bound to suffer heavy losses in this torrential rain.
Moreover, Liu Yin had every chance to take advantage of this heavy rain and defeat the Huns in one fell swoop.
As we all know, the lowest-lying area of the Jizhong Plain is in the area of Xindu, which is called a thousand hectares of depression, Xindu has Zhangshui on the left, Qinghe River on the right, the slope drop is very small, the smallest can be as low as 1/10,000, so the Xindu area is also an area with frequent flood disasters, floods are raging, the river is frequently diverted, the Tonghe River Qinghe nourishes this land at the same time, but also brings endless disasters to this land.
Manpower is not able to compete with the time, even in the later generations of advanced technology, people are not able to deal with those sudden natural disasters, such as earthquakes, such as floods, man will win the sky, that is just a deception.
However, there are some things that can be used, such as the flood caused by the torrential rain in front of you, if you use it well, you can catch up with Guan Yu's feat of flooding the Seventh Army back then.
Liu Yin has not stopped for the past few days, sending many scouts to explore the terrain near Xindu, marking all the highlands in particular, and issuing orders to Fu Yan and Luo Xian the day before the rain, asking them to move to the highlands to avoid floods.
In order to avoid the leakage of the news and be known by the Huns, Liu Yin deliberately only gave Fu Yan and them a transfer order without explaining the reason in advance, although Fu Yan and they were all kept in the dark, and it was difficult to understand Liu Yin's order. But in this case, even if the Huns learned of the actions of the Shu army, they would only mistakenly think that the Shu army would have any conspiracy actions, and would not suspect that the Shu army was not for the sake of fighting at all.
In fact, the Huns did detect the movements of the Shu army, but they would never dare to act rashly until they found out the true intentions of the Shu army, which undoubtedly made them miss a good opportunity to escape. (To be continued.) )
