Chapter 34: The dilemma general floods the city

Her father once demonstrated a set of swordsmanship to her in this martial arts field, when one hundred and eight guards besieged her father together, but they couldn't get close to her father who was unsheathed anyway.

At that time, her heart was full of admiration, and she was determined to be a person like her father when she grew up!

But her father sighed and told her: "Huaiyu, with a sword in your hand, the burden on your shoulders is heavy!" ”

……

"Huaiyu, what are you thinking?"

Duan Qinqin waved his hand at Huaiyu, and Huaiyuyin asked, "Did Zhao Yan send someone today?" ”

"I'm here myself!"

Before Huaiyu's words fell, Zhao Yan walked over, and in the face of Huaiyu's expectant gaze, he suddenly dodged a little, and even wanted to escape.

As soon as Huaiyu saw that he didn't dare to look at herself, she knew that the news from Yundu might not be good, so she straightened up and said, "Just say it, I'll listen!" ”

"General Gu arrived in Yundu a few days ago, and the army was stationed outside the city to confront the Yan army in the city, and the day before yesterday ......"

"What happened the day before yesterday?"

Zhao Yan looked at the anxious Huaiyu and said in a deep voice: "The day before yesterday, it rained heavily in Yundu, General Gu ordered to cut off the water and lure the Yan army to cross the river. ”

"Water attack?"

"Exactly!"

"My dad actually used a water attack in Yundu?"

Huaiyu looked incredulous, these days she has carefully studied the terrain of Yundu, Yundu is located in a low-lying area, there is a river in the outer city, if the water attack, no matter how it is controlled, the water will be unstoppable to flood into the city, this kind of fighting, hurt the enemy by 1,000, self-damage 800, the loss is still innocent people.

Therefore, Huaiyu felt that no matter which way his father used, he would not attack with water.

"How could he attack with water unless he had to?"

There is a saying in the book of soldiers: "The army is wet, the water has no pass, and the rain is counted, and it can be poured and sunk (with sinking)." ”

It is said that when the enemy army is stationed in a low-lying place and the water cannot be drained, if it rains for several days, the tactic of water attack can be used to irrigate the enemy with water.

But in this battle, the Yan army must be in the city of Yundu, even if it lures the enemy out of the city, the Yan army will not be so stupid, to mobilize all the troops, Yundu is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Yan army will not be so stupid, let the city that has been won not defend, but raise troops out of the city to face the battle.

What Zhao Yan said, don't believe it!

I'm afraid that the truth is that the water outside the city directly flooded into Yundu......

If this is the case, as a general of a thousand armies, his father has disregarded the lives of the people in vain and committed such a tragic act, Huaiyu dare not think about what the attitude of the imperial court will be, and what kind of opinion the people will have!

Huaiyu remembered the ancient town in his dream, the monstrous water in his dream, and the people who were wailing all over the wilderness in his dream......

So, Dad, did he really adopt the strategy of water attack?

It doesn't make sense!

Although it is easy to defend the city and difficult to attack the city, Yundu does not even have a moat, and it is easy to be taken away by the Yan army. And the 100,000 soldiers of the Gu family's army, which one is not a heroic man who has experienced a hundred battles and is a ten, if he wants to fight hard, there is no reason why he can't take it back!

The more Huaiyu thought about it, the more wrong it became, and the more she thought about it, the more she didn't believe that this was a decision that her father would make!

"Zhao Yan, you...... Is there anything else you're hiding from me? ”

Zhao Yan couldn't bear to look her in the eyes: "The Gu family army traveled a long way, and when they arrived in Yundu, the grain and grass were exhausted, General Gu borrowed grain everywhere, and no one was willing to borrow it in Xiangcheng and Xinxiang!" ”

"Nonsense! Although Yundu was captured by the Yan army, the grain road was still there. When I returned to Kyoto, the Duan family was still transporting medicine and food to the army, how could the grain and grass run out in just one month? Can't I even guarantee this bit of baggage? ”

"Huaiyu."

Zhao Yan's voice was sad: "Only the Duan family has been transporting food to the Gu family's army......"

Huaiyu was stunned, as if she thought of something, her eyes widened in disbelief, tears were about to flow out, and she held back again.

When did the General's Mansion actually become so fast that the person who had to go to great lengths to get rid of it?

"Haha! Good! Good! All right! ”

Huaiyu burst out laughing, staggered to the ground, and walked outside the martial arts arena with his legs raised.

"Huaiyu!" Duan Qinqin caught up.

"Huaiyu, Huaiyu."

Duan Qinqin followed behind Huaiyu who was staggering back, only kept calling Huaiyu's name, but she couldn't say a word of comfort, although she was stubborn, she was not stupid, she could hear the meaning of Zhao Yan's words.

"Only the Duan family has been transporting food to the Gu family's army......"

Duan Qinqin didn't dare to think about it at all.

She didn't know the truth of marching and fighting, and she didn't know the consequences of attacking the city with water, but when she saw Huaiyu like this, she knew that the seriousness of this matter was beyond the scope she could imagine.

She followed Huaiyu all the way back to Huaiyu's boudoir, and when she saw Huaiyu packing up her things like a walking corpse, her heart sank: "Huaiyu, what are you going to do?" ”

There was only one thought in Huaiyu's mind: go to Yundu! Go to the clouds!

She's just afraid it's too late!

At this moment, she packed her luggage with a lot of energy, and looked at Gu Youzhao outside the door: "I'm going to Yundu." ”

Gu Youzhao's eyes were slightly red, and he reached out and wiped away a teardrop that suddenly fell from Huaiyu with his index finger, and nodded heavily!

"I've already prepared the carriage and horses, just outside the west corner gate of the General's Mansion."

After Zhao Yan finished speaking, he took the lead to go outside the house, he knew Gu Huaiyu too well, she knew such news, she would never choose to stay in Kyoto, even if she knew that she had traveled thousands of miles to Yundu, she would not change anything, but she would definitely go!

Leave everyone behind, and she'll definitely go!

"I'll go with you!"

Duan Qinqin walked over and grabbed the corner of Huaiyu's clothes: "I don't want to stay here, and I won't go back to Linzhou." ”

This time, the Gu family's army fought to capture the cloud capital, only the Duan family was supporting Gu Yanhe, such blatant support would inevitably cause dissatisfaction with that person, and the Duan family's future days would not be peaceful.

Huaiyu looked at Duan Qinqin for a long time and nodded: "Okay, let's go together!" ”

Xiao Liu and Pan Fu came over from nowhere, looked at Huaiyu with blank eyes, saw Huaiyu nodding, they followed Huaiyu quietly, and the group got into the carriage that Zhao Yan had already prepared.

"Huaiyu ......"

When the carriage was about to leave, Zhao Yan called out eagerly.

Huaiyu lifted the curtain of the car and looked at Zhao Yan, who said, "Let Awei follow you." ”

Huaiyu looked at a black-clothed man who appeared behind Zhao Yan from sometime and where, and didn't ask who this person was, but only said lightly: "Okay." ”

Zhao Yan pinched his palms: "You have to be good." ”

Huaiyu nodded and smiled at him: "I will!" ”

The carriage moved forward slowly, Zhao Yan stood firmly in place, his eyes kept following the carriage, and after the carriage turned a corner and was blocked by the house, he staggered forward a few steps, and stopped in an instant.

Slowly let go of the clenched hands, and there were already four clear finger marks in the palms.

He smiled self-deprecatingly, but after all, he couldn't keep it.
