Chapter 398: The Rainy Season Has Arrived

"Boom ......"

The thunder rolled, the day was as dark as night, and lightning slashed across the sky, like a silver snake dancing, and the lightning pierced the sky, bringing instant light to the dark weather covered by dark clouds.

Hua Shenguang stood in the house, looked at the sky through the wooden window, and said to Xiao Ye beside him: "Xiao Ye, it really started to rain, it seems that the rainy season has come, Li Zezhou said that the rainy season here will last for more than a month." ”

"Tick!" As the first drop of rain fell on the window, the raindrops behind it fell mercilessly from the sky, as if he would not stop until the earth was destroyed. A strong wind blew, blowing Xiaoye's hair into the air. Xiao Ye cut his hair, gently closed the window and said, "Brother Guang, in this way, your plan can be fully implemented." ”

"Yes, but when the flood comes, the people along the river will suffer after all, and I can't bear it. Hua Shenguang showed an unbearable look on his face.

"Brother Guang, you are to the people, as parents are to their children, if all the officials in the world have your mind, then the people in the world will really be blessed. Didn't you send many people along the river to spread rumors that there would be a great flood this year? And during this time in previous years, the people along the river will take certain precautions against the river, and I think they should not be harmed.

"I hope so, I hope there won't be too many casualties, if it's just the loss of property, then it's best, and when I defeat this million army, I will double the compensation for the people with a better policy." ”

"Lord Qi, General Li asks to see you!" said the soldier outside the door.

"Okay, Xiao Ye, pour tea!" I saw Li Guozhong walking in with some wetness, and after saluting Hua Shenguang and Xiao Ye, he reported: "Lord Wang, five thousand people have already dispersed in disguise. ”

"Well, well done, they went to the upper reaches of the Nanbei River, hoping to fill up more tributaries, so that the river water could flow to the tributaries in Jianping County. Huashen Guangdao.

"Lord Wang, they will definitely succeed!" Li Guozhong's eyes were full of confidence, these 5,000 people were all good men he had selected from the army, and he voluntarily made a military order, but if he did not succeed, he threw himself into the river and committed suicide! Their task was to cut off the tributaries of the north and south rivers as much as possible before the flood came, so that the river water would flow down to the two tributaries of Jianping County.

"General Li, the other 1,000 people have already set off, right?" Hua Shenguang continued to ask.

"The prince can rest assured, those thousand people are even better hands, all of them have the strength of more than five physical bodies, they are the absolute elite of the army, the rugged mountain roads and steep mountains can't stop them at all, according to the prince's road map, they will definitely climb the Luoye Mountain Range. ”

Hua Shenguang's eyes were deep, and he said after a while: "As soon as this thunderstorm passes, I will go up on the Spirit Eagle to see how they are progressing, and send them all kinds of supplies by the way." In the past two days, Zeng Huainan has continuously sent a small group of men and horses to harass us, wanting to find out our truth, General Li, you also use the same means to send a cavalry of 100 people to the area of Jianping, he harasses me, I will harass him. ”

"Lord Wang, what should we do if that old thief sends a large army to attack Shanjing?" Li Guozhong said with some concern.

"Haha, that old thief claims to never fight uncertain battles, I dare to conclude that he will not rashly send troops to attack, in the past ten days, you can create some illusions, so that he will not dare to act rashly. ”

"Illusion?" Li Guozhong thought for a while, and suddenly came to his senses, "Lord Wang, Gao Ming, Gao Ming, tomorrow I will send 50,000 people to the west of Jianping County with great fanfare, and the day after tomorrow I will send another army to camp between Shanjing and Jianping, making it look like I want to attack the enemy, and so on, is this what you mean?"

"Clever, anyway, just do your best to make sure that the enemy can't figure out where we're moving. Hua Shenguang praised.

"Okay, lord, I'll arrange it. Li Guozhong retired. After he left, Xiao Ye said: "Brother Guang, I believe that this time you will definitely defeat the enemy's million-strong army and create the supreme glory in the history of the Great Ping Kingdom." ”

Hua Shenguang pinched Xiao Ye's nose and chuckled: "How can it be so easy, don't be too happy, there are unpredictable risks in the future, such as Gu Sanniang, maybe after I finish this battle, she will come to me for trouble, so Xiao Ye, you have to cultivate quickly, and you must have the ability to completely protect yourself as soon as possible." ”

Xiao Ye nodded obediently: "I know, Brother Guang, don't worry, I have already informed the master, I believe that he will come soon, and I will beg him to get rid of this hidden danger for you at that time." ”

"I don't have much hope for this, but I said okay, your master came over this time, you must return to Jiutian with him, if you don't comprehend the realm of mana for a day, we won't be able to meet, your cultivation has reached the ninefold peak of the flesh, and the black and white Taoists regard you as an excellent seedling, after you pass, you must practice hard, you know?"

Xiao Ye looked at Hua Shenguang very reluctantly, his eyes were full of dependence, and his smart eyes looked like tears were oozing again. Whenever Hua Shenguang talked about asking her to follow the black and white Taoists, she always revealed her strong reluctance to Hua Shenguang. But this time, Xiao Ye's eyes were just moist and he didn't shed tears.

She nodded obediently, as if she was much more sensible, and the reluctance in her eyes turned into firmness: "Brother Guang, I won't embarrass you, I want to become one of Jiutian's most outstanding disciples, I want to get Jiutian's attention, and become the object of Jiutian's key training!"

The heavy rain fell until noon the next day, and when it was clear, at least 5,000 people gathered outside Jianping County. Among them, there are old and young, literati, and some are martial arts. At least half of them were victims of the looting of their belongings from Jianping to Shanjing, while the rest joined in solidarity when they heard about the atrocities committed by the soldiers.

Among them, there are also dozens of backbones of the Tianxia Association, who have turned into ordinary people, and play the role of threading the needle and fueling the flames in the middle. At the front of the people, there are banners written with the help of some literati: return my melons, return me justice, punish soldiers and bandits, etc., in this era, these words can be said to be like knives, words are heart-wrenching, attracting many onlookers. When the onlookers knew the reason for the incident, more people joined in, making it even louder.

The four gates of Jianping County are closed, outside the closed city gate, there are 3,000 soldiers with real swords and guns, above the city tower, many archers' sharp arrows are aimed at the people under the city, and the arrows are flashing with a cold cold light.
