The small hill where Shen Chen was located was no more than a hundred meters above the ground, and the building ship was twenty or thirty meters high, and the distance between the two sides was not too far.

The bow of the ship was densely covered with soldiers, who raised their shields to prevent arrows from the hill from shooting downwards.

In the crowd, someone came out of the crowd, Shen Chen looked carefully, and what made him feel very surprised was that the person was actually "Zhang Xuan" who let him go.

"Shen Chen!"

"Zhang Xuan" was more than 100 meters away from them, and they only vaguely saw that the dress seemed to be very gorgeous, and his voice echoed in the mountains.

Shen Chen walked to the edge of the cliff, looked at the river below the mountain from the top of the mountain, and shouted: "Zhang Xuan! ”

"It's not Zhang Xuan, it's the lord of Jiangdong, Marquis Wu and Sun Quan!"

Sun Quan stood awe-inspiring, looking up at the top of the mountain.

Sun quan?

This kid is Sun Quan?

Shen Chen was quite surprised, he never expected that he would let Sun Quan go.

"What, are you surprised by Lone's identity?"

Seeing that Shen Chen was silent, Sun Quan smiled and mocked: "If you had known that it was Lonely, your defense would not have been so lax." ”

Shen Chen scratched his head and said: "It turns out that you are Sun Quan, I really didn't expect it to be you, no wonder you wanted to shoot General Huang after exchanging hostages, it turned out to be your order." ”

"Yes, it's Lonely, although Lone is in prison, but he also found a chance to escape, how about it? Do you regret it? Sun Quan said with a smile on his face.

"You seem to be proud that you can run?"

Shen Chen was speechless.

Sun Quan laughed and said: "You don't know Gu and let Gu run away, can't you be proud?" ”

"You're thinking too much."

Shen Chen waved his hand: "This is just a means for me to deceive Zhou Yu and Lu Su, if I hadn't deliberately sent someone to put a dagger in your room and let the soldiers relax their vigilance, how could you escape?" ”

"Huh?"

The smile on Sun Quan's face froze, and he didn't run away with his own wisdom and courage, but was deliberately let go?

Zhou Yu got out of the cabin, stood on the top deck and said loudly: "Even so, it is a ridiculous and generous thing to let my master calmly leave the enemy camp without knowing my master. ”

Shen Chen said with a smile: "If you don't know, you won't know, you'll know in the future, not to mention that you are now in a trick yourself, do you still have to put gold on your face?" ”

"Hmph."

Zhou Yu snorted from his nose, and said loudly, "What if you deceive Lu Meng and Xu Sheng?" It's not like we're surrounded yet. ”

Shen Chen said lightly: "You guys came here, you didn't come here to gossip with me, right?" ”

"Shen Chen!"

Sun Quan said loudly: "Today you have been besieged by us, even if you can escape, you will inevitably suffer heavy losses, if you are willing to hand over Huang Zu and surrender Jiangdong, I will treat you with the courtesy of the Emperor." ”

"Persuasion?"

Shen Chen said with a smile: "General Huang was kind to me in his early years, and if you want me to hand over General Huang, it's a dream." As for surrendering to your Jiangdong, it is even more impossible, although I have some disagreements with the King of Chu, but the King of Chu treats me like a mountain, how can I betray the Lord. ”

Sun Quan's eyes rolled and said: "It's okay if you don't surrender, I have a deep enmity with Huang Lao Thief, as long as you hand over Huang Lao Thief to me, I will let you go." ”

"I think about it too much, and it depends on my mood to let you go."

Shen Chen smiled slightly.

What the hell is Sun Quan's idea, and he doesn't know yet?

If he agrees to this matter, I am afraid that his reputation and prestige will be lost at once, and he will even have to bear the charge.

Although Huang Zu was captured, he was the commander of the Jiangxia Naval Army, and he was second only to Liu Biao in terms of rank, even Liu Qi was inferior to Huang Zu in terms of official position.

So to a certain extent, Huang Zu is the highest-ranking general in the current Jingzhou army, and Liu Qi and Liu Pan have to obey his orders.

The master of his own family was captured before, and he finally changed it back and sent it out, what kind of morale did the soldiers have?

What's more, Shen Chen himself does not have the power to dispose of it like this, not even Liu Qi and Liu Pan.

Therefore, Sun Quan was completely engaged in psychological tactics to divide the soldiers.

"It depends on your mood to let us go?"

Sun Quan seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world, and said happily: "You are surrounded by us now, are you still talking about these big words?" ”

"Woooooooooooo

At this time, a fierce horn sound came from the direction of the back mountain.

Shen Chen's face sank and said, "I said, why did you suddenly come over and chat with me, it turned out that you deliberately restrained me and planned to raid from the back mountain." ”

"Not bad."

Sun Quan crossed his hands on his hips and said loudly: "Those soldiers at the foot of the mountain are just used to deceive you, I have already sent people to raid from the back mountain." ”

Shen Chen shrugged: "Then their luck is not good, you are drowned, they will be shot or slashed by us." ”

Drown?

Thundered!

At this moment, it seemed that the heavens and the earth began to shake.

Sun Quan and Zhou Yu were on the boat, and they could see with the naked eye that more than ten miles upstream of Shushui, countless river waves were rolling and rushing downstream.

The entire river surface seemed to be more than ten or twenty zhang high in an instant, as if the water of a West Lake had been poured into the river in a short period of time.

"How is that possible!"

Zhou Yu was so shocked that he lost his voice: "There is obviously no embankment in the upper reaches of Shushui. ”

"Hahaha."

Shen Chen stood on the cliff and laughed insolently.

On the edge of the surrounding cliffs, countless Jiangxia sailors were watching this scene from afar.

The terrible noise of the huge waves almost shattered the heavens and the earth, and the sound roared from far to near in only a short time.

The Jiangdong army below the cliff didn't even know what was happening, only heard a huge sound dozens of times more exaggerated than the waves, and the sound was getting louder and louder, and the ground even began to tremble.

The Jiangdong Army, which had not received the order, stood at the foot of Wuling Mountain one by one in a daze, and many people thought that there was an earthquake, and they ran around with their heads in their hands, some people were at a loss, some people were running from place to place, and some people were waiting for instructions from their superiors.

But it is a pity that even the officers did not understand what was happening, and many of them even scurried around like headless flies like soldiers, causing chaos in the camp of the Jiangdong Army at the foot of the mountain, and there was no unified command at all.

The Jiangxia sailors on the mountain saw that within a quarter of an hour of the wolf smoke, countless terrifying currents seemed to emerge at the end of Shushui, pouring the entire river into a very exaggerated amount in a short period of time, and the river surface visibly began to rise, submerging both banks.

Immediately after that, the foot of the mountain began to spread the river, and at the same time, accompanied by a loud noise, a huge wave with a height of twenty or thirty meters swept towards the fleet of the Jiangdong Army, like a giant beast opening its big mouth to devour everything.

Sun Quan's boat was almost the first to bear the brunt, although the huge waves looked still miles away, but the speed of the water was already surging in just a minute or two, and the terrible waves directly swallowed the boat, and continued to go downstream.

The people on the boat could not even complete the action of changing the bow of the ship in a short time, because the tide came too fast, faster than lightning, and at first glance it was still far away, and it was already in front of them in a flash of lightning.

After the wave reached the bottom of the Ooling Mountains, the water level of the forest at the foot of the mountain suddenly soared, and the wind and clouds between the heavens and the earth changed color, and the earth shook as if the sky was covered with clouds.

Shen Chen wiped the water droplets splashed on his face, even if he was standing on the top of a hundred-meter-high mountain, it was as terrible as a wave crashing on the riverbank, the rolling flood carried the power of ten thousand jun, and the roar from nature swept the rumbling waves and swept in all directions.

In just a few minutes, after the huge wave passed, the forest was submerged, many low hills became islands, the originally clean and clear Shushui River turned into a turbid yellow flood, the trees collapsed, the camp was submerged, and the jungle at the foot of the mountain was now dense with black spots.

Those things were all debris in the forest, dead leaves and branches, broken wood, ship wreckage, and many Jiangdong Army soldiers floating and sinking in the water, and the bottom of the mountain 100 meters away instantly turned into an artificial lake, and all kinds of wails, help, and shouts on the lake were endless.

The river is still flowing rapidly, and many Jiangdong troops can only survive the flood with difficulty holding on to logs, and the terrifying upstream embankment is still pouring water in. The weather was sunny and there was no rain, but the world became a terrifying hell, which made people tremble.

"General, can this water hold so much?"

Zhang Nan was soaking wet, he was standing on the edge of the cliff just now, but he was slapped by a wave and almost rolled in, but fortunately, the people around him reacted quickly and pulled him up, and at this time he was wiping the sewage on his face like a chicken in soup.

Shen Chen shook his head and said, "A few days ago, there was a torrential rain, and a flash flood broke out in the south, do you know why Shushui didn't skyrocket because of this?" ”

Zhang Nan was surprised: "The general has stored those mountain torrents? ”

"yes."

Shen Chen smiled and said, "And it's not just mountain floods, there are also several small rivers, and a large number of dams have also been dug and built. ”

The secret of the water attack lies in digging and building a reservoir, of course, a reservoir the size of an ordinary fish pond cannot hold much water, and if you want to achieve the effect of making the river swell by twenty or thirty meters in an instant, you need at least a two-square-kilometer lake.

However, it is almost impossible to dig and build such a large lake in the mountains, and it is almost impossible to complete a series of operations such as water storage and storage, strengthening embankments, and opening sluices to release water within the specified time.

Not to mention whether manpower and material resources can be achieved, but to build such a large reservoir lake, strong craftsmen are required, and it can only be built upstream.

Therefore, Zhou Yu and Lu Su didn't believe that Shen Chen could attack with water at all.

But they overlooked several things.

First, it was still raining in the southeast hills a few days ago, and the flash floods continued to break out, and the water resources were extremely abundant, so there was no need to use the water in Shushui for water storage.

The second is that Shen Chen used to do design work, and he used to be an architectural designer, so it is not difficult to design and build a lake in the mountains.

Third, and most importantly, he didn't need to build a huge lake.

Since there were flash floods and tributary rivers and streams everywhere in the mountains and forests, Shen Chen only needed to send people to build dams for interception in those small rivers that were no more than twenty or thirty meters wide, and then dig reservoirs on both banks.

As long as there are enough mountain floods and small streams and rivers, then more than a dozen small impoundment lakes will open the gates at the same time to release water, and the huge water flow will pour into Shushui in a short period of time, which can cause the effect of the large lake bursting its banks and make the water level of Shushui skyrocket.

People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places, and you only need to take advantage of the topography of the mountains, the movement of the rivers, and the recent heavy rains.

And there is also the problem of labor.

Although there is no need to dig large reservoirs, only a dozen small reservoirs need to be dug up, which they simply cannot do.

But the Shanyue people can.

According to historical records, there are tens of thousands of people in each of Chen Fu and Zushanbu, and the total number is more than 100,000.

With their help, Shen Chen dug about 16 impoundment lakes in a month to carry the torrents and streams in the upper reaches of Shushui.

These impoundment lakes are not large, and the water volume of each impoundment lake is about tens of thousands of cubic meters to more than 100,000 cubic meters, and the total water storage may be more than 2 million cubic meters, which is about one-seventh of the water storage capacity of West Lake.

It may seem like a lot, but as a small and medium-sized river, Shushui has a daily flow of more than 10 million cubic meters, which can fill the entire West Lake in one day.

The Yangtze River and the Yellow River, a super-large river, have a daily flow of billions or tens of billions of dollars, and if they do not flow into the East China Sea, it will be a disaster for mankind.

So to a certain extent, Shen Chen only intercepted one-fifth of Shushui's daily water flow and released it in an instant.

It's like if it rains for a few hours every day for a month, it won't make any difference, but if you concentrate the rain for a month on one day, it will cause a flood.

Shen Chen also took advantage of this, and scattered the construction of water storage lakes to prevent Jiangdong's scouts from going south along the river at night to check if there were any water storage dams.

Even because these impoundment lakes were too small, the dams they intercepted were completely made of wood and stones, and after completing their water storage function, they spread out, causing the water level of Shushui to not drop, and successfully confusing the Jiangdong Army.

The results are now remarkable.

In a short period of time, 2 million cubic meters of flood water was released, almost one-fifth of the Shushui river, directly flooding both sides of Wuling to Shiling, stretching for dozens of miles, and the drainage of Yishushui was simply not enough to drain so much water, resulting in the entire mountain forest being submerged.

At the foot of the mountain was already a swelling of waters, and all kinds of people, animals, leaves, wood, and boat fragments were floating on the muddy yellow flood, and many people sank to the bottom of the water and were submerged by the flood, and many more were barely floating, swept downstream by the current.

All the Jiangxia sailors above Wuling watched this scene blankly, and the horror of nature gave them a strong visual impact and shock, so much so that many people felt their legs tremble.

At this time, there was a continuous sound of horns from the back mountain, which made the surrounding Jingzhou soldiers frequently look in the direction of the back mountain.

"I almost forgot."

Shen Chen patted his head, picked up the quiver placed on the ground and carried it on his back, with a ring-headed knife hanging from his waist on his left side, and a bow in his right hand, he roared to the hundreds of soldiers who belonged directly to him and said, "Come with me." ”

The soldiers shouted and shouted in twos and threes, followed him, and headed in the direction of the back mountain, and in an instant there were two or three thousand people in the ranks, and more soldiers were still joining them.

This team was also full of treachery for them, and it was only then that they realized that there seemed to be an enemy in the back mountain.
