It's over.

The whole frightened day and night, the entire chess game set up by Guan Lin, finally ended with the death of 35,000 Cao soldiers, the death of Pang De's four sons, and the complete alienation of Xiangyang City.

Today's Xiangfan battlefield, in addition to the Xiangyang City where the word "Lin", "Mi" and "Fu" are hung high, the shouts and whistling sounds of "exhilaration", "cheering" and "joy" are constantly transmitted, and the corresponding is the faint sigh and the sad scene in Fancheng.

Xiangfan is separated by a river, and the mood of the two cities is completely different.

Xiangfan is separated by a river, and the forces behind the two cities, the situation on the battlefield of Xiangfan has undergone earth-shaking changes.

In the Pang De camp in the southeast of Xiangyang, the fire was like the sun, and the fire surrounded the entire camp as if it was alive, igniting the entire camp, and the flames danced in the camp, igniting a corpse with "a thousand holes".

The raging fire is burning relentlessly, devouring everything with impunity.

Gradually, the crimson fire turned into an arrogant painter, who used the brush in his hand to paint the entire camp black.

The burning sound of "crackling" was not felt for a long time...

It seems that the Jingzhou army solemnly declared war on the Wei army again:

——The present of these people is the tomorrow of the rebels!

The most palpitating thing is that on this night, the commander of more than 30,000 troops and the father of four children, Pang De, he always stood on the tower of Fancheng City.

He stared in the direction of the fire, his fists clenched so that even his nails were embedded in his hands, and the blood in his palms gradually flowed out.

He hates!

The thirty-five thousand soldiers who hated him, and the four sons who hated him, all died there, and even their bones were to be burned by the fire.

After several hours of clenching his fist, his hand seemed to loosen again, and the clenched fist finally let go.

At this moment, he couldn't hold his heart anymore...

Lost this battle so miserably? Who is to blame? Isn't that what he blames? Didn't it start with one of his poisonous arrows hitting Guan Yu?

A poisoned arrow was exchanged for a million crossbow arrows, and in exchange for him, Pound became a complete loner!

This sale... Let Pound be heartbroken!

Even, for a moment, Pang De deeply regretted that when Guan Yu wanted to run, he... Why did he shoot that poisoned arrow, why did he provoke this god of war!

"Ahem..."

Suddenly, Pound coughed violently, his waist could no longer straighten, and his whole waist bent.

"General, General..."

There were dozens of guards beside them, they escaped the catastrophe because they followed Pang De to Fancheng, and they were not in a good mood, and it was their comrades who were burning in the fire!

"General..."

One of the guards lifted Pound up, only to see that Pound's hands were covered in blood.

There is blood flowing from fingernails embedded in the flesh, and there is blood coughed up from the mouth...

At this moment, the guards were frightened and hurriedly shouted: "Hurry... Send the general to the medical office... Send the general to the medical office! ”

More than a dozen guards helped Pang De to the medical office.

Under the torches, their shadows are stretched long...

And where Pound had just stood, the ground was very sticky and wet, it was blood, and it was tears—

It's miserable!

It is no exaggeration to say that this is the worst time Pound has suffered since his debut, once upon a time, how could he have thought that one day, he... He Pound will send white-haired people to black-haired people!

He Pang family... There's no root! I can't stand up anymore!

…

The fire at Pound's camp burned all night.

The tents in the camp and the corpses that had fallen were the nourishment of the fire, which could not be extinguished, and many of the 30,000 recruits who had arrived had just been assigned a widow and had not yet tasted the dry firewood of men and women.

Many of these people pondered... Go back in this battle and show the majesty of a man.

But they never thought that they... Along with their majesty, they have been burned to ashes, and the widows who were distributed to them will be reused and redistributed to the next batch of recruits under the order of the Great Wei Dynasty!

Endless...

It's just that these owners who are burning their corpses by the fire, I'm afraid they won't know how much trouble and impact their tragic death of 30,000 people will bring to the future recruitment of Great Wei.

Even if it's under the "widowhood order"!

The next day, when a thin frost mist fell in the early morning and covered the thin layer of dust, the fire finally stopped.

There were bones everywhere, black debris floating everywhere... Traces of burns everywhere.

And at this moment, at the end of the line where the Jingjiang River and the dawn converged, a Cao army of 20,000 people galloped over, and they saw that there was fire here, so they rushed to this side first.

But when I saw the scene in front of me, I couldn't help but be at a loss.

Especially the general of the 20,000 sergeants, Yu Ban, I don't know when, he seems to be suffering from "fire disease", which is a very strange disease, he is always worried about the fire around him, but he can't help but move in the direction of the fire, like a moth to a fire!

This kind of contradictory and complicated mood has always permeated his heart since the fire outside Jiang Xia Anlu City.

Even, flooding into his nightmares!

Even if he sleeps, he will be awakened at least three or four times, and sometimes, he will run out of the military tent and inspect the trench outside the military village in the middle of the night!

Speaking of which, the 20,000 soldiers and horses were temporarily allocated to him by Cao Cao, and this all stemmed from Cao Cao's dream, the dream that Guan Yu did not die!

Therefore, Cao Cao took out the only remaining 60,000 soldiers in Shouchun and handed over 20,000 to Yu Ban in Nanyang, and he went to support Xiangfan... Ensure that the situation in Xiangfan is foolproof.

In fact, in Cao Cao's view, Xu Huang, Pang De, Cao Ren, Yu Ban... Xiangfan battlefield, this is already an all-star lineup that Cao Cao can pose.

plus more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in Xiangyang City;

There are more than 30,000 soldiers and horses in Fancheng, more than half of which are cavalry;

There are also 30,000 recruits and 5,000 Xiliang cavalry;

It is precisely because of this that if you add the ban on 20,000 soldiers and horses... Cao Cao felt that even if Guan Yu was cheating to death, the situation in Xiangfan could still be stabilized.

It's just that it backfired... Before the forbidden army rushed to the Xiangfan battlefield, he heard the bad news of the annihilation of the Pang De army, and heard the fact that the millions of crossbow arrows in the enemy's crossbow array fell from the sky and shot down without interruption.

It's horrible...

It doesn't mean that he turned around, and he received the news that Xiangyang City was being attacked.

He immediately gave the order to hurry, but it was still a step too late...

"General, Xiangyang City has fallen—" Tan Ma Yu reported.

Yu Ban said softly: "I saw it"

As the head of the five good generals, Yu Ban's imagination is extremely rich, and according to the available information, he is enough to imagine that last night... What's going on here?

Last time, Jiangxia was a burning canister and a monstrous fire;

This time, it was ten thousand crossbows fired at once, millions of crossbow arrows fell from the sky, and the impregnable Xiangyang City was captured... Yu Ban didn't dare to continue thinking about it, he was afraid that his nightmare would come even deeper in the future!

"Let's go to Fancheng first, and then we will discuss it when we see General Zixiao..."Yu Ban's voice was a little frustrated.

Not only him, but even his soldiers and horses can't contain the discussion at all...

"Again, lost again?"

"This is the fourth big defeat in months, right?"

"Many generals are dead, many soldiers are dead, this... What the hell is going on. ”

At this moment, a voice suddenly came out, "It seems that since the news of the discord between the father and son of the Guan family came out, our Great Wei has not won a battle again, it is a great victory to shoot Guan Yu, but in the end, it is still a big rout!" Da Wei... Can Da Wei still win? ”

With this voice, the entire legion fell silent...

It's not so much the news of the discord between the father and son of the Guan family, it's better to say... It's the news that the rebel Guan Lin "doesn't make a sound, and he will soar to the sky"!

"General..."The guards couldn't help but open their mouths when they saw the hesitation of the forbidden mood.

Yu Ban waved his hand, "Pass my military order, go to Fancheng..."

This one was more frustrating than Fang Cai's voice.

Yes, the officers and men of the three armies are frustrated, and it is inevitable that they will be banned.

Having said that, in the past few months, all the battlefields have been defeated and retreated, and the soldiers have been defeated, and he... How can he understand this situation, this situation?

No...

Isn't it "the advantage is in Cao"?

But how do you feel, all of a sudden, this advantage... changed his surname to "Guan", Guan Yu's "Guan" is also Guan Lin's "Guan"!

These are two "off" words that can't be written!

…

…

In Gangneung City, inside the government office, a map is placed on the table.

Guan Lin and Lu Xun were discussing the map, but it was obvious that Guan Lin was a little absent-minded, and he waited for the battle report ahead.

Finally, with the arrival of the messenger, the battle report from the front finally reported: "Xiangyang City has been captured..."

As he spoke, the messenger also presented a battle report, which was the first time that Fu Shiren had summarized the battle losses after capturing Xiangyang, and sent it to Guan Lin.

Guan Lin swept the battle report, couldn't help but "chirp" his mouth, his eyes became solemn, but in the end, he was still relieved, and said with emotion: "Brother Boyan, look at this battle report, even if I deploy it like this and attack the city like this, more than 6,000 people will die in the capture of this Xiangyang City!" ”

Guan Lin's implication...

This is under the carelessness of Cao Ren, Xu Huang, and Pang De;

Outside the city of Xiangyang, 35,000 soldiers were annihilated first;

In the case that Xu Huang was trapped in Fancheng and could not come back;

Under the premise that at least thirty percent of Cao's soldiers were allowed to go home to visit their relatives.

Even so, the capture of Xiangyang City cost more than 6,000 people...

Xiangyang is known as the first military fortress running through the north and south, not just talking, but not a joke!

Lu Xun also swept the battle report, according to Fu Shiren's battle report, the defenders of Xiangyang City were less than 10,000 people, and even if they finally broke through the city, they would only lose more than 3,000 people...

It can be seen how tough and rock-solid this city, which is surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side.

But... Anyway, it was captured.

Although it has paid a very heavy price!

And Xiangyang has been captured, which is a new chapter for Jingzhou.

Lu Xun shifted his gaze to the map, his hand from Jiangling to Xiangyang, and then from Xiangyang to Fancheng, which is separated by a river north of the Jingjiang River, and said with emotion: "Xiangyang has fallen, then for Cao Cao, the last barrier of Wanluo is Fancheng, if Fancheng is lost, the land of Xudu and the land of Wanluo will be completely exposed to the soldiers of the Jingzhou army, so... Cao Cao will definitely send heavy troops to support Fancheng. ”

"That's right!" Lu Xun's analysis provoked Guan Lin's head, "Xiangyang, which is less than 10,000 people, is so difficult to attack, and there are still tens of thousands of people in Fancheng garrisoned by Cao Ren, a shrunken turtle!" Even if Cao Cao doesn't send troops to support, I'm afraid it won't be easy to attack... But as Brother Bo Yan said, this Fancheng... It is the last barrier to Wanluo in the north. ”

Frankly speaking, no matter which strategy Guan Lin is followed, Fancheng must break through.

The ideal situation is that Guan Lin breaks through Fancheng, and then the soldiers are directed at Xu Du, and Cao Cao is forced to move the capital, whether it is to move to Luoyang or to Yecheng, the Son of Heaven moves like this, and the opportunity is easy to appear.

As long as the "Son of Heaven" disappears from Cao Cao's hands, even... Blame Cao Cao for the disappearance of the Son of Heaven, and the situation will be very different.

In the Central Plains and the north, the voices of rebellion in various places are bound to rise and fall, not to mention Cao Cao's nine and a half mines, even thirteen mines can't stop this monstrous sound, this is the "united front" in Guan Lin's most ideal state, it is a "total war", and it is also a "people's war"!

And Daddy Guan Yu and Guan Jiajun can drive straight into it at that time, as if entering a no-man's land, and occupy the Central Plains in one fell swoop.

Of course, this is the ideal situation!

And this most ideal strategic plan, the premise that can't be bypassed at the first time, is still - Fancheng!

Fancheng is garrisoned by Cao Ren, a shrunken turtle who is good at "guarding"!

"Broken Fan City? What are your thoughts? Lu Xun took the initiative to ask Guan Lin.

Guan Lin rubbed his chin and looked at the map and pondered for a long time.

Lu Xun didn't urge, just looked at him like this, patiently waiting for his thoughts.

After a full breath of time, Guan Lin suddenly stretched out his hand and paddled his hand in the direction of the Jing River (Han River).

He said lightly, "Brother Boyan said, is there a possibility? Can we take advantage of the high water period to dig the dam of the Jing River, and then release the water to flood Fancheng? ”

This...

Guan Lin's words made Lu Xun stunned for a moment.

And the reason why Guan Lin said this is to refer to the story of the father Guan Yu flooding the Seventh Army in history.

Of course, the story... After the rendering of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the version that more people know is that Daddy Guan Yu first stored water, then dug a dam, diverted Han water to irrigate, launched a water attack, and directly flooded the Seventh Army led by Yu Ban and Pang De.

As for Fancheng, where Cao Ren was located, the water was flooded to the city tower... If it weren't for Xu Huang's raid, if he took a bite of Cao Ren, Fancheng would have been lost!

It seems that all this is because of Daddy's use of astronomy, water conservancy, and water storage and water diversion to irrigate, so that the name of Megatron Huaxia was achieved!

In fact, if according to the records of "Three Kingdoms", how can Daddy Guan Yu be so legendary?

It's just a blind cat touching a dead mouse.

Who would have thought that three years later, in August, it rained for more than ten days in a row, and the Han River swelled and overflowed... There was a huge natural flood.

The water flows along the old road of the Han River, and the low-lying area of the riverbed is divided into three roads to the area of Zang (Zeng) Kouchuan, Yanzhangang, Yujiagang to Tuanshanpu.

In addition, the flash floods of the Tang River, the Baihe River, the Xiaoqing River and the Putuogou, Huanglonggou, Heilonggou and other places in the northwest make the horizontal land in the areas of Kouchuan, Yanzhangang, Yujiagang and Tuanshanpu five or six zhang deep.

Of course, this is all nonsense.

There is only one... It's not nonsense, it's the unlucky Pound and Yu Ban who happen to be stationed in these areas!

So here's the problem? Why wasn't Daddy Guan Yu flooded?

Because Daddy Guan Yu has a boat in his hands...

Guan Jiajun is a "Navy Marine Corps", and he will take the boat with him anytime and anywhere, but it is not Guan Yu who prepared in advance... He's far from that legendary!

In the final analysis, this is God's help, so that Guan Yu "blind cat meets a dead mouse", or "waiting for the rabbit", picking up a ready-made rabbit... Take advantage of this to shock China.

It's not that Daddy Guan Yu is really so awesome, he stores water and digs dikes...

It can also lead the Han water to pour back and launch a water attack!

It is necessary to know that even in later generations, water storage, flood discharge, digging embankments... It is a sophisticated technical work, and related fields include astronomy, geography, meteorology... Wait a minute!

It's not Guan Lin who slanders him Lao Tzu, he thinks that his father Guan Yu doesn't have the ability.

Of course, Guan Lin can also wait until three years later, until this heavy rain for more than ten consecutive days, but... It's been too long, and it's too late, Guan Lin doesn't dare to wait, he has to take the initiative.

So...

Since Daddy Guan Yu "eats from the sky", then he Guan Lin relies on his ability to eat, he doesn't wait for the rain, he plans to carefully study the water storage, flood discharge, and embankment...

Study the astronomy, geography, meteorology...

Let's see if we can take advantage of it.

In fact, the rainy season in Jingzhou is from July to September every year, and it is normal for the Han water to rise.

Even according to the original text in the "Later Han Shuzhi Fifteenth Five Elements Three", the Han water in the Jingzhou area overflowed and poured into Xiangfan... It happened three times.

They are:

- "In September of the second year of Jian'an, the Han River flowed and harmed the people. Then the world will be in turmoil.'"

- "In June of the 18th year of Jian'an, there was a great flood."

- "In August of the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an, the Han River overflowed, harming the people."

In other words, three years ago, there was a flood here, and there will be a big flood three years later, and with Guan Lin's experience... In the intervening six years, although there was no big flood, it was certainly not peaceful.

So...

His train of thought, water attack, water attack, or water attack!

It also has to flood Fancheng——

With this in mind, Guan Lin continued to ask Lu Xun: "Brother Boyan, do you know anything about the climate of this Xiangfan?" It is said that the dry period, the high water period... So does the high water period correspond to the heavy rain period? In the past, in Xiangfan, how terrible could the torrential rain in flood years be? How high can the water level go, and what about heavy rains in a typical year? How much of the water level can reach in a disaster year? Are there any subtle and perceptible patterns between this disaster year and the rainstorms in ordinary years? ”

Guan Lin asked a lot of questions...

These, especially the climate on the front line of Xiangfan, were too crucial to his plan.

It's just that these seem to have touched Lu Xun's blind spot in knowledge.

Lu Xun could only shake his head helplessly: "If you ask the Yangtze River Basin, I can still tell you why, but if it is... Xiangfan here, this Han water, the 'Jingjiang' in the mouth of the people, that..."

He didn't finish a word, and hurriedly waved his hand, the meaning was very clear, the climate, water conservancy... He is not proficient, and he is not good at it.

But...

Lu Xun suddenly thought of something, his eyes blinked, and he hurriedly said, "However, there are two people... Both of them live in seclusion in Xiangfan, have lived here for decades, and are proficient in astronomy and geography... If it is one of them, maybe you can give you reliable help in astronomy, meteorology, and water conservancy. ”

Lu Xun blurted out this...

Guan Lin hurriedly asked, "Who is it?" ”

Lu Xun did not hide it: "One is that... Secluded between this Xiangfan, Pang Degong in Lumen Mountain ......"
