Chapter 1167: Prevent Someone from Doing Damage

"Just wait for the flooding of Jizhou City, force all the Jizhou troops back into Jizhou City, and then surround Jizhou City. Although it is difficult to attack the city, it will be difficult for them to escape under our siege." Su Xuan said.

Xu Ershou smiled proudly, this is a strategy he came up with, it is not too perfect.

Divert water to flood, and you can achieve your goal without spending a single soldier.

After Jizhou City is completely surrounded, Jizhou City is equivalent to what they have in their pockets.

"Taiping, without further ado, you lead five thousand soldiers and horses to Jizhou and act immediately." Su Xuan said.

"Chitose Lord rest assured, the last general will not be dishonored." Taiping left with his hands gone.

"Generals, we need to put food and grass in place. Since it is necessary to divert water to flood it, it is necessary to place the grain and grass on relatively high ground. Qian Wu, I'll leave this matter to you. We must ensure that after the start of the war, the logistics and supplies will keep up." Su Xuan said.

"Humble Command!" Qian Wu arched his hand.

"Ladies and gentlemen, all we have to do now is wait. When the peace is completed, we will immediately send troops to join forces with Shen Qi's troops to besiege Jizhou City. If the Taiping plan can't be successful, then we can only attack." Su Xuan said.

"In my opinion, instead of going around so many curves, it's better to go straight to the corner. How can the three-way army in Jizhou, with so many recruits, fight with us?" Chunfeng said.

She still wanted to attack directly.

Only by fighting head-on on the battlefield and completely crushing the morale of the enemy army in one wave can the victory be stable.

However, the spring breeze will naturally not disobey Su Xuan's intentions.

She also knew that the purpose of using strategy was to reduce casualties.

"Master Chunfeng, don't worry. Jizhou City is so big and has such a rich heritage, it is not so easy to break through in one fell swoop, and you will fight some of them when the time comes." Su Xuan said with a smile.

"Hmm." Chunfeng nodded, obviously looking like he couldn't wait.

She has been idle in Huining for more than a year, and she can't be idle for a long time.

"Generals, don't be impatient." Su Xuan said.

The group continued to discuss the strategic plan.

Taiping has already left, and the matter of coordinating the army naturally fell on Su Xuan's head.

He'd fought so many times, and this time was different.

Almost every time in the past it was a quick battle, a blitzkrieg battle, a charge battle.

Now it is necessary to fight a tough battle, and the enemy is very strong.

As Su Xuan said, a family like the Qinghe Cui family has a very rich heritage.

He is confident that he can beat Jizhou down, but it is just the length of time.

After coordinating the overall situation, all Su Xuan had to do was to wait for the Taiping to flood Jizhou City.

His strategy succeeded, and Su Xuan was not far from victory.

Taiping led 5,000 elite horsemen, disguised as Liukou and went to Jizhou.

He did not go straight to the source of the Luohe River, but made a roundabout advance within the boundaries of Jizhou, and fought with the Liukou from time to time to confuse the Qinghe Cui clan.

If the action is too precise, the intention is too obvious, and it is easy for the enemy to see through.

They rushed back and forth within the boundaries of Jizhou, so the Qinghe Cui clan thought at most that this was just a new team of rogues, and there was nothing to be afraid of.

The Luo River is the second largest river in the Great Yan Dynasty after the Canglan River, which originates from the Yanshan Mountain Range, flows to the right west to the east, flows through Zezhou, Jizhou, and Yanzhou, and joins the Moon Lake.

It is only the beginning of spring, and the ice and snow on the Yanshan Mountains have just begun to melt, and the rain has gradually increased recently, which is suitable for cutting off the Luo River and hoarding the river.

If it is half a month later, there will be more water in the river, and it will not be so easy to intercept.

Taiping led his men and horses upstream, and found a place that was most suitable for interception a hundred miles away from Jizhou City.

It is surrounded by mountains on both sides, and the river flows out of it like a natural floodgate.

What Taiping needs to find is exactly such a place.

It is necessary to be in a mountainous area in order to have a large amount of urgent need for river water.

So, Taiping immediately led the men and began to cut off the flowing water here.

The river is too majestic, and the water at this natural gap is relatively fast.

All night, Taiping didn't see any results. It's just that the water level is a little higher.

After five days of busy day and night, Taiping finally led people to intercept this natural floodgate.

Thanks to these 5,000 people, it is the most elite part of the Wushuang Army, and if ordinary soldiers do this kind of heavy work, there is no telling how many people will have to die of exhaustion.

Taiping stood on the shore, looking at the results of his five days and five nights of not closing his eyes, and finally smiled with satisfaction.

"In this way, it is enough for Jizhou to drink a pot." Taiping smiled.

"General, you haven't slept for five days and five nights, if you don't rest for a while, the little ones are afraid that you won't be able to hold on." A soldier stepped forward and said.

"And, what is this? Lao Tzu once had a record of running for seven days and seven nights in a row!" Taiping said.

"General, you are indeed brave, but we have already done what we need to do, and we have nothing to do now, General, you can indeed rest a little." The soldier said.

"That's right! Listen, everybody, I'm going to remember all of you once! After the battle of Jizhou is over, everyone can find ten generals who are rewarded with the same military merits!" Taiping Lang said.

When everyone heard Taiping's words, they came out to work for five days, and as a result, they could get the equivalent of ten heads of military merit, this deal is too cost-effective, right?

It's tiring to do, but it's safer than going to the battlefield.

"Thank you, General!"

"The general is mighty!"

"Follow the general to have meat to eat!"

……

"Alright, let's be stationed nearby now to prevent anyone from wreaking! Find a place right away, and you can all have a good rest. Damn, I'm tired." Taiping said.

The Taiping people found a suitable place to hide in the nearby mountains and set up camp.

All the soldiers took turns to work, and only a few followed the peace day and night.

Taiping is indeed exhausted.

The five thousand brothers were also exhausted.

After everyone set up the temporary camp, only a few people who were in charge of the sentry were left, and one by one they fell directly down and fell asleep.

The water of the Luo River is slowly accumulating.
