Chapter 291: It's Raining!
It's raining!
In an instant, the rain swept the whole world!
On rainy days, there is generally no big fighting. On a rainy day, the line of sight was helped, which was not conducive to the Jin army's attack, and the offensive effect was not very good. If you get wet on a rainy day and get seriously ill, it is a big trouble. In short, it rained, the Jin army would not attack, and it was another leisurely day.
Just in case of accidents, it is better to let some soldiers be on guard and be ready for a big battle at any time.
It's raining, the soldiers are very idle, and the ministers of civil and military affairs are also very idle, and at the moment it seems that they can't do anything but make people in bed.
It's so idle, it's time to find something to do!
Life is about tossing, even if it's raining, you can't stop.
As a result, the middle and junior officers in the barracks gathered together and began to review the battle, to examine and reflect on the results of the battle, or to reflect on the shortcomings in the battle. In the main hall, all the civil and military officers gathered in the hall, sat at a huge oval-shaped table, and discussed with each other.
"There are no natural famous generals, famous generals are composed of two factors, one is to constantly fight, and the other is to constantly sum up experience. As long as you don't die in a hundred battles, as long as you sum up your experience at any time, even if you can't become a famous general like Bai Qi, you will become a first-class general! Zhao Pu said calmly, "With a modest attitude, continuous learning, continuous progress, and discussion!" ”
Zhao Pu set the theme of the conference, and the civil and military personnel continued to discuss this theme, freedom of speech, free chat, but not personal insults, not to be oppressed by official positions, and not to spread surrender speech.
In order to prevent rip-offs, in order to prevent the extension of allusions, talking nonsense for the first half of the day, and a time regulation was carried out.
At first, the civil and military people were a little uncomfortable, and those Confucians were even more uncomfortable. Because the Confucians always like to call for the first half of the day, they even quote various allusions and various forces, and the phenomenon of dropping the book bag is extremely serious. Zhao Pu listened to it for a long time, a little drowsy, and still didn't understand what the Confucians said.
After a period of discomfort, they gradually entered the formality, and the scholars began to use concise and sophisticated words, rarely allusions, or allusions. It was easy to get into the subject, and there was much merit in the rhetoric.
It's just that the problem of abuse has become serious, and in the end, Zhao Pu had to take punitive measures, and the abuse decreased.
During the discussion, Zhao Pu rarely spoke. It's more about playing the role of a maintainer of order.
And in the discussion, Zhao Pu found. In general, it is divided into two major factions. The literati are one faction, and the military generals are another. Among the literati, there are even more radicals and conservatives. In the strategy against gold, some advocate a slow attack, and some advocate a quick attack.
During the discussion, the meeting was adjourned every two hours. One in the morning, one in the afternoon; In the morning, we talked about military politics, and in the afternoon we talked about civil affairs.
Time just spends in a discussion!
Day 1. The rain was heavy!
The next day, the rain became lighter, but it was still moderate.
On the third day, it was still raining.
On the fourth day, it was still raining.
The rain was falling like this, which made Zhao Pu feel disgusted, but the rain was still falling, endlessly.
"The rain is so heavy, the river must be full, if the Jin army attacks by water, what should it do?" Suddenly, Zhao Pu thought of a question, and couldn't help but make a sudden spurt in his heart. If you play with flooding in these years, it is almost an unsolvable situation, and you are almost certain to die. In history, Guan Yu flooded the Seventh Army, Qin dug the Yellow River flooded the beam, and Li Zicheng flooded Kaifeng.
At the thought of flooding Xiangyang, Zhao Pu felt extremely uneasy.
"Impossible!" Qin Hui on the side said, "Flooding seems easy, but it is actually a technical job, and if you are not careful, you may be flooded." Xiangyang is located on the edge of the Han River, and the measures for flood control are in place, and there are many drainage canals in the city, and it is impossible to flood Xiangyang! ”
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, with the defense of the water division, the Jin army can't do anything at all!" Fan Zongyin on the side said.
Zhao Pu also nodded.
In the Great Song Dynasty, the city is extremely well built, and the drainage facilities in the urban area are complete. In some areas near major rivers, flood control is tight, and there are enough drainage canals to prevent flooding.
Historically, Guan Yu led the army to besiege Fancheng, which Cao Ren held, and Cao Cao first sent Yu Ban and Pang De to the rescue, regarding the adoption of the policy of encirclement and reinforcement. The place where the forbidden troops are stationed is low-lying, it was in the autumn rainy season, the torrential rain came, the Han River flooded, the seven armies were overrun in the forbidden place, Guan Yu took the opportunity to lead the naval army to attack, captured in the ban, Pang De, surrendered in the ban, Pang De was beheaded without surrendering.
At that time, it was not Fancheng that was flooded, but reinforcements outside the city. Because the place where they were stationed was low-lying, the whole army was wiped out.
When the Qin State flooded the Liang, the urban construction of the Wei State was relatively rough at that time, and the flood control measures were poor, so the Qin State took advantage of the loopholes. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, when Li Zicheng flooded Kaifeng, at that time, after many years of war, Kaifeng had already blocked the canal, and some flood control measures were not in place, so it was flooded.
When the Jin army besieged Bianliang several times, it never flooded Bianliang, because Bianliang, as the imperial capital, had excellent flood control measures and would not be flooded at all.
"Theoretically, there are many canals, which are better protected and will not be flooded; If the canal is blocked, or if the construction is not in place, it may be dangerous! Zhao Pu was shocked, and a bad thought rose in his heart. Theoretically, Fancheng would not have been flooded because the flood control measures were better. It's just that the officials of the Great Song Dynasty are too corrupt, and the efficiency is too poor, and the phenomenon of cutting corners is obvious.
From theoretical security to practical security, this is a distance of 108,000 miles.
"No, I'm going to check it myself!"
Zhao Pu couldn't sit anymore, and went to patrol the city with his guards, accompanied by officials from the Ministry of Industry.
…………………………
The heavy rain stopped the Jin army from attacking!
The Golden Vulture has a somewhat crazy personality, but he will not attack on a rainy day, because it is meaningless and does not have much effect.
"What if the water attacks Fancheng?" Jin Wushu asked.
Pharmacist Guo said: "Give it a try!" ”
So, on a heavy rainy day, the Jin army went out and went upstream, and blocked the river with sandbags in a relatively narrow section of the river, so that the river water accumulated higher and higher, but unfortunately the golden vulture was also the first time to play with flooding, and he had no experience at all. I don't know where the river water is accumulated, so I can only wait for the limit of the amount of water to accumulate according to the calculations of the artisan battalion.
Ten days of rain, ten days of accumulation, the river water in the river, has accumulated to an astonishing extent. Some sections of the river upstream, because the river was too big, some sections of the river even collapsed, and the river began to leak, and the golden vulture had to intercept it again.
After a lot of hard work, the water in the river has reached the maximum amount, and if it is stored again, the entire river may collapse.
Looking at the high embankment, Jin Wushu's eyes flashed with essence, life and death are in this move, and Po Song is at this moment.
"Don't mention it!" The Golden Vulture gave the order.
At the sound of an order, the embankment was immediately dug up, and the flood lost its restraint, like a wild beast, swooping down on Fancheng in the distance.
"Boom!"
Heaven and earth change color, and the earth trembles!
Looking at the raging flood, the Golden Vulture also trembled in his heart, this is the power of flooding, the power of destroying everything.
…………
Zhao Pu only inspected a distance before he felt the whole earth tremble, and a violent roar came from afar.
"It's not good, the Jin army is going to flood!" Zhao Pu's face turned pale instantly.
Flooded, staged again?
Will Fancheng survive this catastrophe?
Zhao Pu gritted his teeth, his face was a little pale, and he only inspected the flood drain for a short time, but found that it was not as solid as the ministers said.
In the design of the flood channel, it is perfect, and there is no flaw at all; It's just that no matter how good the design is, it can't stop the people below from cutting corners. In Fancheng, some flood canals are either in disrepair or have been blocked, and there is no problem in resisting ordinary floods, or even violent floods, but in the face of super floods, in the face of man-made floods, there are some hangings!
"Your Majesty, please get on the bamboo raft!" Qin Hui persuaded.
"Your Majesty, please go to a high place?"
"Your Majesty, fire and water are ruthless, be cautious!"
"Your Majesty, be cautious!"
The courtiers beside him were constantly exhorting.
Zhao Pu didn't hear it, but said lightly: "Go to the city wall and take a look!" (To be continued......)
