Half a month later.

Zheng Guo came to report that all the canals had been dug up.

"Release!"

Wang Ben said directly.

Whoa......

The water of the Yellow River first poured into the chasm, then into the aqueduct through the chasm, and finally into the moat, and after overflowing the moat, it poured directly into the tower of the girder.

The water continued to crash against the city walls, and soon entered the city through the gaps in the gates.

"The water is coming!"

The people in the city panicked and hurried back to move their things to avoid the flood.

The people who could afford to raise their houses scrambled to climb upstairs, and those who had no ability and could not prepare anything could only watch the water pour in, and then wait for it to be flooded, and then wait for death.

The flood came very quickly and rapidly, and in less than half a day, the water that poured into the city was enough to flood people's knees, and there was no intention of stopping.

"It's finally coming!"

King Wei pretended to stand on the walls of the palace city and looked down.

The royal palace of Wei is naturally higher than the street outside, and there is no water to flood it for the time being, but when you see the miserable situation outside, you can only look at it, and you can't do anything.

Outside the city.

Wang Ben saw that it was almost over, and asked Zheng Guo to control the flow of water, although it was to prepare for flooding, but it would not flood too much, and reduce the number of deaths as much as possible, their purpose was only to break the city, not to drown Li Shu in the city.

Bai Zhong said: "This scene is really spectacular. ”

After so many years, it was the first time he had seen what a flooded city was like.

"How long do we need to be flooded, does General White think?"

Wang Ben wanted to break the city as soon as possible, but he knew that he couldn't hurry.

Even if it is flooded, it must be soaked for a period of time before the city can be broken.

Bai Zhong recalled this history and analyzed: "The king of Wei still refuses to surrender, but he is afraid that he will stalemate with us to the end, the wall of the girder is high and strong, and it should be soaked for two or three months before it collapses." ”

Wang Ben smiled: "It seems that I am a little anxious, I want to see if I can't hold it first, or King Wei can't hold it first." ”

There is only one big beam left in the Three Jin Dynasty, and the road to the east of the Qin State is completely smoothed, and the transportation of grain, grass, and baggage is extremely convenient, and the grain is harvesting year by year, and the Qin State is not worried about the fake consumption with the King of Wei at all.

In the afternoon of the same day.

Wang Ben wrote a report for people to send back to Yingzheng to report the situation here.

At present, in the official Qin State, the transmission of various documents has been replaced by the current paper from cloth, wooden slips and bamboo slips, and in Xianyang City, there are a large number of paper sales.

For example, the newspaper written by Wang Ben has also been replaced with paper, and it has developed rapidly in the past six months.

How to break the city next, there is nothing Bai Zhong can do, but if he can't get the king's edict, he can't withdraw his troops casually, so he can only wait for the order of the king of Qin.

In this way, it is more than two months.

The walls of the girder finally could not hold up and collapsed partially, revealing the earthen wall inside, but it did not collapse completely.

Wang Ben was no longer anxious and did not attack immediately.

He even asked Zheng Guo to control the amount of water and inject more water to continue soaking.

The day after the city wall collapsed, Bai Zhong finally waited for Yingzheng's edict, saying that he could retreat first.

He said goodbye to Wang Ben, first went back to Wuguan, took some people back to the Wuguan military camp to garrison, and then returned to Xianyang.

From Daliang to Wuguan, and finally back to Xianyang, it took almost more than a month.

"Chen Ping, you go back with me first."

Bai Zhong said: "You don't have a place to live in Xianyang, live in my house temporarily, and then I will prepare a mansion for you, how about you find time to bring your family to Xianyang again?" ”

The current Chen Ping is different from the previous one.

He changed his clothes, his body was much stronger, he had been in the army for three or four months, and even his temperament had become different, and he was already handsome, so he looked even more eye-catching at this time.

"I'll listen to the general."

Chen Ping said respectfully.

"Then go home!"

Bai Zhong nodded slightly.

After being away for more than half a year, I finally came back.

Zhou Yu and the others cheered and pounced on Bai Zhong, reuniting after a long absence, I don't know how happy they were.

"Yu'er, I brought a friend back."

Bai Zhong reminded softly.

Only then did they realize that Bai Zhong was still followed by Chen Ping.

"Madame, Miss, hello."

Chen Ping bowed politely.

Zhou Yu just smiled slightly, which was considered a return gift, and what he had in his eyes was only his husband.

Bai Lan looked at Chen Ping and felt a little surprised, and said after a while: "Big brother, he looks so good!" ”

This sentence made Chen Ping blush slightly.

He is only one or two years older than Bai Lan, but his current personality is still quite shy, and he will still be shy when he is suddenly praised by Bai Lan.

"My friend, Chen Ping."

Bai Zhong introduced them and said, "He lives in our house for the time being, and he will move out in the future." ”

Chen Ping bowed and said shyly: "I'm sorry to disturb you." ”

"Don't bother."

Bai Lan said enthusiastically: "You please come in first." ”

——

At night.

Washing away the dust and dust on his body, Bai Zhong just returned to the room, and saw Zhou Yu waiting for him, there was no other outsider at this time, so he hurriedly threw himself into his arms, holding his husband's waist tightly with both hands, and finally a familiar breath around him.

"Beloved, I've been looking forward to you for a long time."

Zhou Yu gently rubbed in his arms.

Bai Zhong doted on her and asked, "Has anything else happened at home recently?" ”

Zhou Yu raised his head and said, "It's okay at home, but Ling Zhi, the friend of the lover, has come a few times and asked when the lover will come back, it seems that there is something very important to discuss with the lover." ”

The thing about Lingzhi is probably when the school was established.

Bai Zhong came back, and before he set out to conquer the Chu State, he would first help them do a good job of the academy and then do other things, and said softly: "I will solve his matter, it is not a hurry." ”

"One more thing."

"What's the matter?"

"I miss you."

Zhou Yu smiled sweetly.

"I miss you too."

Bai Zhong's heart was warm, it was a very happy thing to have someone waiting for him to come back at home.

Zhou Yu raised his head, hugged Bai Zhong's neck, and took the initiative to kiss him.

They soon indulged in the joy of reunion after a long absence, lingering, loving and loving......

The next morning.

After Bai Zhong got up, he kissed Yu'er's forehead, got dressed, and prepared to enter the palace to see Yingzheng.

According to the current time, Wang Ben has already taken Daliang City.

However, the distance is relatively far, and the news has not been sent back yet, he has already returned, and he needs to enter the palace to report the results of the battle, and request that Meng Tian and Wang Li be separated from their subordinates, so that they can be alone and lead the troops alone in order to better temper themselves.

Not long after Bai Zhong arrived at Zhangtai Palace, Yingzheng came.

After everyone saluted, Bai Zhong first reported the results of the battle, although Yingzheng had already known the whole process, but according to the rules, he still had to report it officially.
