The first volume of the late Han Dynasty Fengyun Chapter 10021 has a water gate in the city

Next chapter

Yang Rui is facing the dilemma of food and grass supply for the first time, because he has relied on props such as Sky City and Najie Space for a long time, Yang Rui has developed a habit, and he has hardly brought grain and grass according to the normal pattern. ±，

At this time, the amount of grain and grass that Yang Rui had on hand was even far behind that of ordinary players.

If the supply of grain and grass cannot be replenished, Yang Rui may have to withdraw from the current series of regional plots in advance.

So Yang Rui first sent two boats, carrying his own edicts and tokens down the Yellow River, to the nearest Yanzhou to collect grain and grass.

According to Yang Rui's speculation, although the current series of plots has limited the registration process, it should be allowed if someone is sent to mobilize grain, grass and troops from Qingzhou and Yanzhou.

Secondly, Yang Rui is also playing the idea of seizing grain and grass nearby, and the object of seizing grain and grass is naturally the hostile camp, not ordinary people NP and the like.

And this depends on some luck and good access to information. In the absence of scouting horses, Yang Rui can only rely on the reconnaissance ships sent at present.

A whole morning and half of the afternoon had passed, and most of the ships that Yang Rui had sent to investigate had already returned.

According to the investigation of various ships, Yang Rui selected the nearest Xinfeng county as the first choice to solve the supply of grain and grass.

After Li Dao and Guo Yan made a fuss, there were some contradictions in Xinfeng County, and the subordinates close to Li Dao and the subordinates close to Guo Bi made a big fuss.

In this case, the disadvantaged pro-Guo Yan people were squeezed out of Xinfeng County and were on their way to Chang'an City, and although the pro-Li Wei people controlled the whole city of Xinfeng, they seemed to feel that it was inappropriate to let the opponent rush to Chang'an City.

Therefore, about half of the forces were also sent to follow the other party, in case Guo Yan's forces formed an advantage in Chang'an City.

It is naturally impossible for the exploration ship sent by Yang Rui to fully know such a detailed situation, but the situation that the pro-Guo Yan troops withdrew from Xinfeng, and later the pro-Li Wei troops also chased out part of the situation was mastered by the exploration ship.

Yang Rui's exploration boat learned about the relevant situation from the fishermen, and because Yang Rui had already chosen the neutral camp at the time of the encounter, Yang Rui's exploration boat was in a hostile state in the eyes of the fishermen's NP.

The so-called neutral camp in the plot is not that it has nothing to do with Li Dao and Guo Yan, but that it is in a hostile state with both camps.

The fishermen who encountered Yang Rui's exploration boat were just trying to survive, so they truthfully told the soldiers on the exploration boat what they saw and heard, and the situation was similar twice in a row.

The other two exploration ships that arrived near the river near Xinfeng County, the news brought back can also confirm these news, although it is not clear about the specific defense situation of Xinfeng County at this time, but it does know the news that two groups of soldiers and horses left from the West Gate one after another.

Due to the fact that he was in the hostile camp, Yang Rui's scout soldiers could not go ashore to investigate at will, and the news basically came from the boats in the river or the people on the shore.

Even if there were exploration ships that were about to touch the city along the moat aqueduct, they could only get too much information, and they could only find out a rough idea.

By the time night gradually fell, all the ships that Yang Rui had discharged to investigate had returned according to the implementation agreement, and there was no more specific aspect of the information obtained.

The class of troops that Yang Rui had considered specifically for exploration was put on the agenda again, but there had never been a very suitable class of troops.

Putting aside these matters that cannot be solved temporarily, Yang Rui still has to solve the problem of grain and grass supply, and after nightfall, Yang Rui will do his best to get more than 80 ships and sail towards the Yellow River section of Xinfeng County.

An hour later, Yang Rui commanded the fleet to arrive at the Yellow River crossing on the north side of Xinfeng County, anchored all the ships in turn, and together with Tai Shici, Zhang Ning, Han Dai, and Ding Yao, he commanded 40,000 iron guards and nearly 50,000 scaly guards and sailors.

Only more than 2,000 men were left to defend all the 80-odd ships so that they would not be attacked by the opposing camp.

In fact, the daytime exploration boats have been clearly arranged, except for a small number of small and medium-sized warships in the section of the Yellow River near Chang'an City in the upper reaches, there are only a few scattered fishing boats on the Yellow River near Xinfeng County, and there is almost no possibility of Zài being attacked.

The distance from the Yellow River crossing to Xinfeng County was not very far, and Yang Rui and others took more than an hour to secretly find a position 30 miles near Xinfeng County.

Perhaps because of the lack of defenders in Xinfeng County, or the reason that most of the attention was paid to the west side of the city, Yang Rui's troops arrived at Xinfeng County from the Yellow River crossing without attracting the attention of the defenders in the city.

But it's no wonder that at this time, Li Dao and Guo Yan haven't really started fighting, and even the plot participation is still in the registration and transmission stage, and it is normal for the defenders in Xinfeng City to lack vigilance.

"Lord Governor, the strategy I said before is the moat water gate, the scaly armor water pawn can sneak into the city from the water gate, secretly open a city gate, and then introduce a large army to attack the city, when it can be able to fall down in one fell swoop......"

Near Xinfeng City, Tai Shici pointed to the aqueduct leading to the moat and said to Yang Rui.

In fact, when signing up to participate in the plot, due to the need to fill in materials such as equipment, heavy trebuchets can be used at this time, but it is not easy to transport, and when it is transported from the bank of the Yellow River to Xinfeng County, it is estimated that the sky will be bright!

Where the troops were sent, Tai Shi Ci built a light and simple line, saying that the scale armor and water pawn may be able to make meritorious contributions, Yang Rui was still doubtful at that time, and at this time it seems that Tai Shi Ci's plan should indeed be feasible.

Of course, this is still based on the fact that Xinfeng City is not far from the Yellow River, and there is an aqueduct connected to the nearby tributaries of the Yellow River, so that a moat is built.

Almost all of the moats in the city are connected to the inner part of the city, and basically the domestic waste water in the city is discharged into the moat through these rivers, and then continues to the outer rivers.

This is the case in Xinfeng County, where its moat has two aqueducts leading to a small tributary of the Yellow River, which can easily maintain the moat level and circulate the flow.

"Poof! Burst! Poof......"

The 1,000 scaly guards selected by Tai Shi Ci got off the aqueduct at a position still 10 miles away from the moat of Xinfeng County, and quietly swam in the direction of Xinfeng County.

Yang Rui, Tai Shici, Zhang Ning, Han Dai, and Ding Yao commanded the rest of the troops, and then slowly advanced towards Xinfeng City. (To be continued.) )
