Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Fuyang River is also known as Fushui, Huainanzi contained in the Fushui out, its source boiling such as the soup in the kettle, so it is called Fu, the name of this Fushui is also from.

Fushui is a big river in Handan, it is a big river in ancient times, from the Fuyang River by water transport from Handan can directly reach the county of Hejian County to govern Leshou, in Leshou and Hutuo River confluence for the Ziya River, Ziya River and then to the mouth of the Sancha River near the sea into the sea. In the Sui and Tang dynasties, the water can be navigated, straight to Leshou, generally sail from before and after the sting, until the heavy snow, can pass for nearly 300 days.

Although it is not as grand as the Yongji Canal, the maze of ships, and the grand occasion of thousands of miles, the boats of hundreds of stones can also be fully loaded in the river.

At this time, it has not snowed, and it has rained heavily since the beginning of autumn, and it is definitely not a dry period, so the water that the Xia soldiers saw at the head of Yongnian City became shallow, and the biggest possibility is that Zhao Jun blocked the water upstream as a dam and wanted to flood Yongnian City.

It was also when Liu Heimin chose to stick to Yongnian City, because he felt that the mud of this city was not conducive to the development of Li Chongjiu's iron cavalry, so he stuck to this city, but he didn't expect Zhao Jun to use water attack instead.

The terrain of Yongnian City was not high, and Zhao Jun was interested in irrigating again.

Liu Heimin, Ling Jing's worries have gradually become a fact, from day to night, the water of the Fuyang River outside the city is rapidly becoming shallow, and the tidal flats on both sides of the river are more than ten zhang long.

Liu Heimin was furious when he saw this scene, and shouted: "Why don't you come to report me earlier, it's all like this now, I'm afraid that I, Liu Heimin, will feed the fish and shrimp early tomorrow morning." ”

When the generals saw it, they all bowed their heads, in fact, since the Zhao army built the earth mountain in the east of the city, the flow of the Fuyang River has decreased, and they didn't think it was too strange at first. And today they are awake.

Ling Jingyan said: "The Fuyang River originates from the Taihang Mountain, and the Zhao army must intercept the river and build a dam at the high water source in the east of the city. Impound the city with water. ”

Liu Heimin looked at Ling Jing and asked earnestly, "Mr. Ling." Is there a way to break the enemy? ”

Ling Jing was stunned and said, "This ......"

Seeing Ling Jingzhiwu, Liu Heimin asked again: "Is there an ancient precedent to be found?" ”

Ling Jingyan said: "When Cao Cao attacked Yuan Shang, he decided to irrigate Yecheng with water and break Lu Bu, and Yuan Shu also attacked with water, all of which were victorious. ”

Liu Heimin's face changed when he heard this, this Yecheng is today's Zhaozhou, the land of Handan, when Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shang and took Yecheng. Even if you break the fierce enemy, you only hear of victory but not of defeat, can't you break through the water and attack the way?

Ling Jing lowered his head and said: "The land of Handan has a lot of water, and the country is prosperous because of water, and it is also troubled because of water. Not only did Cao Cao break through Yecheng with water, but during the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of the Han Dynasty, the generals of the Han army also destroyed Handan with water. ”

Listening to Ling Jing's dejected words, the generals on the side said dissatisfiedly: "In the chest of Ling Ling's sacrificial wine dialect, there are hundreds of strategies for soldiers. Familiar with the tactics of war, reciting them like a stream, why don't you remember this. ”

Ling Jingzhi said: "I forgot about this, I'll know when I go back to read." ”

Liu Heimin said, "Please ask Mr. to go and see." ”

At that moment, Ling Jing hurriedly left. The general on the side said: "The scholar misled the country, and the general believed it." ”

Liu Heimin was silent, and soon Ling Jing returned to the east of the city. He said loudly: "General, have I found a way to break the water attack?" ”

Liu Heimin was shocked when he heard this. But when he saw a book in Ling Jing's hand, he danced with his hands. Liu Heimin said: "Hard work. Mr. Ling, how to break the water attack? ”

Ling Jingfu said: "There is a saying in the book that you can make a boat, attack the enemy's dam, and release water from the mouth. ”

Liu Heimin asked, "What is a ship?" ”

Ling Jingyan said: "The boat is loaded with a military book, and a small boat that can carry thirty people, lined up with a large wooden cover, covered with raw cowhide, can be used for attack and defense. ”

Ling Jingfu said: "This is the method of preparing water, general, we can choose three hundred well-trained elite soldiers and twenty fast boats, and each two boats are lined up side by side, which is called Yilin." Each of them was equipped with thirty elite soldiers, carrying bows, crossbows, spears, hoes, and armor, and rushed out of the city to dig embankments and dams in the night. ”

Hearing this, Liu Heimin said: "This is a clever plan, can there be ships in the city?" ”

The general on the side said: "There is a ship, but I am afraid it will be too late to rebuild." ”

Liu Heimin said: "No matter if it's too late, it's too late, give it to me immediately." ”

The general immediately took the order and left.

Ling Jingyan said: "General, to deal with the method of water attack, in addition to taking precautions, in case the Zhao army really breaks the water, we should also prepare as soon as possible. ”

Liu Heimin said: "Mr. Ling has come to this point, so don't hide it." ”

Ling Jingyan said: "First of all, we must protect the granary, the granary is the ration of the 40,000 soldiers and civilians in the city, in case of flooding, the grain and rice will be moldy if it is inedible." Therefore, it is necessary to protect the granary first. ”

Liu Heimin nodded, and then instructed a general: "Send an order to immediately build a dam around the granary in the city to separate the water." ”

Ling Jingyan said: "Second, it is to protect the people in the city, in case of flooding, let them avoid the high ground." ”

Liu Heimin said: "It's easy, it's a big deal to go to the beam." ”

Ling Jing sighed, knowing that Liu Heimin might not be able to take care of it for a while, and the soldiers could still go up to the city wall, and the people might not be able to do anything.

Ling Jingyan said: "Third, set up tiles in various places to measure the water level, and dig wells in the city, so that the water from the high places can flow to the lower places, and if necessary, the walls can be chiseled at the low city walls to drain the water. ”

After speaking, Ling Jing looked at the generals proudly and said: "This is the method of preparing water, the wisdom of the sages, who said that the book of war is useless." ”

The generals of the Xia army on the side were silent.

Liu Heimin shouted: "What are you doing in a daze, don't do what Mr. Ling tells you to do." ”

The generals took orders one after another, and that night there was a mess in Yongnian City, and the Zhao army wanted to decide the matter of the Fuyang River irrigation city, which leaked out, and the people were all panicked.

The people all held the altars and jars at home overnight, and flocked to the door of the workshop, crying and begging the people to let them out of the workshop, and flocked to the high places in the city to hide. The soldiers were also busy, and the Xia soldiers ran back and forth on the street, first blocking the stones in the granary and near the general's mansion, and then installing thirty boats.

The night was busy until dawn, and Xia Jun's ship still had a few ships that had not yet been completed, and it would be completed in a few hours. And the people who were congested at the gate of the workshop were also waiting for the dawn when the soldiers of Xia could open the workshop and release them.

But at this moment, a soldier who was resting on the ground in the city suddenly shouted: "Listen, what is this sound?" ”

All the soldiers pricked up their ears when they heard this, but they felt that when it was hazy, it was like the sound of the tide.

"Is it ......?" all the soldiers were frightened.

The overseer's general, Yang Tian, lamented: "Our ship has not been repaired yet, so why don't we have a chance at all." ”

At this time, the bell on the head of the city sounded one after another rapid gongs, and a Xia soldier standing on the city wall shouted to the city: "Oh no, the Zhao army has broken the water upstream to irrigate the city!"
