Chapter 157: Water High Soul City
"Strange River?" Everyone followed Mo Xuan's fingers and looked around, and sure enough, they saw this long river drawn on the map. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"That's right, it's this tricky river!" Mo Xuan said loudly with excitement: "When I first traveled to the Soul City, I heard a legend, legend has it that at the beginning of the establishment of the Soul City, it was often flooded by the Tricky River, so the first ghost wheel hell prince Wang Youzi ordered the construction of a dike, and the dike, but the water of the Treacherous River can still flow over the embankment and flow to the Soul City for some reason. ”
As a result, the soul city suffered from floods, and the king of wandering sons ordered to raise the embankment again, and the embankment was heightened, and the flood was still the same, and then it was raised again, and after repeated more than a dozen times, the water of the river was finally blocked out, and the embankment of the year was also added again and again, and became a big mountain, in order to commemorate the wandering king, the people named this mountain Youzi Mountain. ”
"I see!"
When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized.
"So.... The lord wants to use the water of the Wei River to flood the soul city?" Chen Qingzhi's mind turned, and he understood Mo Xuan's intentions, and asked with shock.
"No, no, no~~" However, Mo Xuan shook his hand and said: "Although it is Liu Banxian and Jia Xu's strategy that really needs to use the water of the Wei River, it can't do the effect of flooding the Soul City, after all, the city wall of the Soul City is too high, and although the Soul City is surrounded by mountains on three sides, there is still a place left empty, not to mention whether the Soul City can be submerged entirely, even if the entire Soul City is to be submerged, it will take at least more than a month to consume time."
"In that case, why is it used with the help of the water of the Wei River?" Chen Qingzhi asked again.
Mo Xuan laughed, looked at Ma Yuan, and said with a smile: "This is to give our family Wenyuan a chance to make meritorious contributions!"
"Ahh
"That's right, it's you!" Mo Xuan stood with his hands in his hands, smiled, and slowly explained: "Although we can't achieve the effect of flooding the Soul City, we can increase the height of our army's battle, chisel through Youzi Mountain, put the water of the Wei River into it, and let the water surround the Soul City, according to my inference, as long as it takes five days, the water can rise to more than half the height of the Soul City wall." ”
"Then the ships will be chained and flattened, and the battle height of our army will be on top of half of the city wall, so that the siege ladder can hook the city wall, and our army's bow and arrow will also shoot on the city wall, and the master of our army's water battle is only Wen Yuan, so the battle of command at that time, Wen Yuan, will be handed over to you!
"That's right!" Liu Ji and Jia Xu smiled and nodded.
After listening to what Mo Xuan said, everyone looked strange, and looked at Liu Ji and Jia Xu with admiration in their eyes.
"Everyone, do anyone have different opinions on this strategy?" Mo Xuan walked up to the desk with his hands behind his back and asked with a smile.
"No!" the crowd shook their heads quickly.
"Very good!" Mo Xuan got up excitedly, slapped the desk, and ordered loudly: "Ziyun, you led some soldiers to start work overnight, chisel a crack in Youzi Mountain for me, and put the water of the Wei River into it." ”
"Wen Yuan, you led some of your soldiers to work overnight, making a large number of wooden boats, and then connecting them with iron cables. ”
"Meng Qi, you led some more than 10,000 soldiers to carry mud and sandbags from a distance, and heightened and strengthened the front line of our army to prevent the water from overflowing. ”
"The rest of the soldiers, all go to help, and be sure to complete all tasks in the shortest possible time. ”
"Yes!"
The generals in the audience were excited to receive their lives, and their eyes were full of fierce fighting intent.
......................................
With the concerted efforts of all the soldiers of the Emperor and Tibetan Army, it took only three days to chisel out a human-wide crack in Youzi Mountain, and the water of the boiling cold river suddenly poured into the crack and rushed towards the Soul City.
At the same time, Ma Chao and Ma Yuan led the soldiers to constantly make large pieces of ship planks and heighten guards.
Soul City, Imperial Hall
"Turn the king, it's not good, it's not good!" Just as the civil and military were discussing defense matters above the court, a soldier guarding the city screamed in panic and stumbled into the court.
"What's going on?, is it that the Emperor Tibetan Army has started to attack?" Xue Morui suddenly stood up and asked nervously.
The soldier took a few breaths, swallowed the dry saliva in his mouth, and shouted in surprise: "Turn the king, the enemy army has carved out Youzi Mountain and introduced the water of the Wei River, the water potential is huge, and within a few days, my soul city will be flooded." ”
"What?" Xue Morui's face turned pale, and he shouted in disbelief: "How can this be? He Mo Xuan dared to disregard the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Soul City and flood Soul City with a big flood?"
"Big water? It's actually flooding Soul City with water, what can I do?"
With Xue Morui's words, all the ministers in the hall were shocked and panicked, and for a while, the entire court fell into a frightened and panicked atmosphere.
"Turn the king, don't panic!" At this time, Lian Liao, the chief military division, stood up, and after arching his hand to Xue Morui, he said mockingly: "This Mo Xuan wants to use it to flood my Soul City, but it is a little whimsical, if he wants to flood my Soul City and the surrounding places with water, it will inevitably take a long time, and when the Soul City is really submerged in water, most of the time has passed, and it is just useless work." ”
"In addition, although my Soul City is low-lying, but after the reinforcement and reconstruction of several princes and kings, it is also higher than the Wei River, even if the Wei River is flooded, it will not be able to flood my Soul City, not to mention, at this time, it is winter, and the water level of the Wei River is even lower than usual, how can I submerge my Soul City?"
"Yes, yes, yes! General Army Division Lian is reasonable, so what should our army do?" After Lian Liao's size, Xue Morui remembered all kinds of things, and the worries and panic in his heart were put down, and he immediately asked.
Lian Liao smiled, waved his big hand, and said with confidence on his face: "Our army has three things to do now, the first is to block all the gaps at the gate of the Soul City to prevent the water from seeping in, second, to put the grain and grass and other materials high to prevent it from being soaked in water and mildew, and third, to strengthen the protection of the four walls to prevent the Emperor and Tibetan Army from using flooding as a cover, but the real purpose is to take the opportunity to sneak attack my Soul City." ”
"That's right!" Hearing this, Xue Morui's heart was even more stable, his face changed buttons, and he ordered: "Come, send half of the soldiers in the city to closely monitor the enemy's every move, and the rest will be ready for battle, and according to what the chief military division said, plug the gaps, increase the military resources, and finally, make arrangements for drainage......"
Xue Morui, who recovered from the panic, once again had the demeanor of the princes and kings of the past, and one order after another was conveyed downward from his mouth in an orderly manner.
