Guan Yu has been fighting in the Fancheng area for too long, and he is very familiar with the terrain here, and even every city here.

For example, Xiangyang City is a brick and stone structure, and the cost of this kind of city wall is too high, so it can only be built in a military town.

Therefore, in the north of Xiangyang City, such as Fancheng, Pinglu City, Yancheng, and Xinye City, they are all rammed earth city walls.

Even Guan Lin's newly built "Changsha New Town" and "Jiangling New Town" are rammed earth walls.

Be aware, though...

Even if it is a rammed earth wall, the technology has been formed in the Qin and Han dynasties, and the ability to resist the impact of the city vehicle and the bombing of the stone thrower is extremely strong.

And what is this rammed earth wall afraid of?

Guan Yu understands too well, what this rammed earth wall is afraid of is time and the Dragon King.

It is not that this kind of rammed earth wall will collapse when it is washed by water, but if it is soaked for a long time, the wall will gradually disintegrate and collapse.

Precisely, Fancheng, Pinglu City, Yuncheng, and Xinye City are all old antiques.

Fancheng was built during the reign of King Xuan of Zhou in 800 BC.

Yancheng is also known as Yanyue City, but the year is near, but Cao Cao hastily built, and Fancheng is used as a horn, really to talk about the city defense is not as good as Fancheng.

Xinye City is the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, more than 400 years ago.

Pinglu City is about 800 B.C., the city of fiefdom built by Zhongshanfu, thousands of years ago.

This is also why three years later, after the heavy rain for more than ten consecutive days, after the Han River soared, Guan Yu keenly captured the fighter plane, diverted water to irrigate the city, and achieved the good story of "flooding the Seventh Army"!

Among them, there is a keen eye for feather to capture fighters, but there are also these city walls that really can't withstand the water attack!

Now, even three years ahead of the time of the "flooding of the Seventh Army".

But because of Guan Lin's reminder, Guan Yu had already thought about "diverting water to irrigate the city".

It's a whole new way of thinking.

He has even begun to ponder that the purpose of this "Absolute North Road" is not only to block Cao's army from going south and block the supply of Fancheng, but more importantly, to find out the geography there...

Occupy all the favorable terrain, and then help his son Guan Lin launch a water attack to divert water and irrigate.

At this moment, after Guan Yu's passionate words, Guan Jiajun's military meeting also ended.

Guan Yu walked out of the military tent and planned to go to Xiangyang City, wanting to take one last look at Guan Lin, a stinky boy, before the North Road.

Unexpectedly, Guan Yinping chased after him and chased him to Guan Yu's side.

"Daddy..."

Accompanied by Guan Yinping's opening, Guan Yu asked, "Yinping has something to say?" ”

Guan Yinping bowed, "My daughter wants to ask her father, this time my father's 'Absolute North Road' is to help Yunqi, right?" ”

Not...

was suddenly seen through by his daughter, which made Guan Yu's already nervous mood even more nervous, and he was still deliberately covering his state of mind.

"The fourth brother plans to use the Han River in July and August to divert water to irrigate the city and capture Fancheng, and divide the victory and defeat with that Cao Ren..."

Without waiting for Guan Yinping to continue, Guan Yu had already signaled her not to say it, Guan Yu exhaled deeply, and he finally let go of the unimportant majesty as a father.

"Yunqi's plan, my father knows, and my father also believes that with Yunqi's ability, he will definitely be able to complete this water diversion and irrigation, so that Cao Ren and 50,000 Cao troops will become chickens in the soup..."

Speaking of this, Guan Yu paused, and his tone became a little heavier, "But it's only December now, and there are still seven or eight months before the cloud flag's plan, and the army is impermanent, and the water is impermanent... What the father can do is to minimize this change, and also make full preparations for the cloud banner to attack the water at any time, complete all the prerequisites! ”

Guan Yu said this on his lips, but the words in his heart were even more tender.

- "My son has done so much for his father, for Jingzhou, and for the Han family? Fathers have to do something for you, right?'

- "I can't let my son fight alone!"

Yes, in the past, Guan Yu did not take the Cao army seriously, and used only 30,000 Guan Jia's troops to penetrate behind the enemy lines in Fancheng to block all the enemies who came to attack!

This is arrogance and arrogance.

But now Guan Yu, all this he does is foreshadowing.

In Guan Yu's opinion, it is impossible in the future...

But now, he can go out of his way to assist his son.

If this is a "great" credit, he will also willingly hand over all this credit to Yunqi's son!

Now, Guan Lin's position in Guan Yu's mind has become more important-

Just as Guan Yinping was talking to Guan Yu.

"General..."Zhou Cang also caught up with Guan Yu, he received the latest information, and hurriedly reported: "Mrs. Huang Yueying has arrived in Xiangyang City, and the fourth prince is at the city gate to greet her!" ”

Not...

Guan Yu's eyes were slightly stunned, he was convinced by Zhuge Liang.

Because Zhuge Liang... He will also look up at Huang Yueying a few times.

In addition, Huang Yueying's reputation for astronomy, knowing changes, and being good at kitsch is also widely spread throughout Jingzhou...

For a while, Guan Yu was looking forward to the sparks from the collision between his son Guan Lin and Huang Yueying!

"Okay." Guan Yu just agreed, then turned around and walked away slowly.

The plan to go to Xiangyang City to see his son has been put on hold for the time being.

He stepped directly into his military tent, and even his steps were not the same as before, he became much more restrained, and now Guan Yu is far from being as domineering as he used to be.

And entering this military tent, there are two books placed at the head of Guan Yu's bed.

One is a brand-new "Spring and Autumn Zuo's Biography", which has some dust on it;

One is "The Art of War"... The books have been torn apart.

Guan Yu habitually took "The Art of War" and opened one of the chapters, but he couldn't help but think of Guan Lin's words, and before reading it at night, he smiled and chanted.

"Wu'er said that the stronger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish—"

blurted out a word, and his eyes couldn't help but look at the side of Han Shui.

Unlike in the past, a new battlefield is about to open -

In the past, Guan Yu relied on his own bravery.

But now in the war, he relied on his own bravery and his son's wisdom.

The so-called tiger brothers, father and son soldiers!

…

…

At the head of Xiangyang City, countless torches illuminate the dark night like day.

Guan Lin and Huang Yueying went to the top of the city, and Huang Yueying was still wearing a veil, covering her entire cheeks tightly.

But her eyes suddenly had a little more complicated eyes, and her eyes were looking at the location of "Huangjiawan" between Xiangfan, which was the home where Huang Yueying had lived for 20 years!

Now it looks pitch black, there are no lights, it's like... It has been uninhabited for a long time, and it has been dilapidated.

Huang Yueying exhaled softly, inevitably a little sentimental, she didn't like greetings, and went straight to Guan Lin: "Xiangfan is separated by a river, if you can capture Fancheng with a water army, why do you have to ask me for astronomy, geography, and water conservancy methods, and lead the Han water to pour Fancheng?" ”

This question made Guan Lin ponder for a moment, he pointed to Fan Cheng and explained truthfully: "First, it is the dry season, the water level is too shallow, and the warship cannot travel in the Han River, and second... Madam Huang, there are 50,000 Cao troops hidden in this small Fan City! There are a number of famous generals including Cao Ren, Xu Huang, Yu Ban, and Pang De..."

Speaking of this, Guan Lin paused for a moment and muttered: "If it is a strong attack, it will hurt the enemy by 1,000 and damage yourself by 800... It seems that such a loss is acceptable as long as Fancheng is captured. But I, this person, has this shortcoming, and I can't see the senseless casualties and losses of the soldiers... If I can avoid casualties, even if it is seven or eight months, I am willing to wait until the flood rises! ”

Guan Lin is not compassionate to others, but has personally experienced and experienced the battlefield in this era, and he will know how hard the soldiers of this era are.

One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, it's really not just talking.

Let's take the previous defeat of the Guan family's army.

If there is no mustard stew, even a small "tetanus" can take the lives of a large number of soldiers, which are all fresh lives, and more importantly, Guan Lin's soldiers.

What's more, it is clear that Guan Lin knows that three years later, there will be a rainy weather that lasts for more than ten days, and it can flood the Seventh Army and win a complete victory!

Guan Lin only needs to follow the cat's example, as long as he can meet several conditions for diverting water to irrigate Fancheng this year, then he can avoid huge casualties and achieve victory without bloodshed.

Therefore, Guan Lin really didn't think about attacking it.

Listening to Guan Lin's words and watching the change in the expression on Guan Lin's cheeks, Huang Yueying sighed with emotion: "Unexpectedly, you are different from those generals, you are still a compassionate person, but... You asked me about the climate prediction in Xiangfan..."

Speaking of this, Huang Yueying shook her head and groaned softly, "Fu Hongmeng divides the judgment, yin and yang are the beginning, and those who float lightly are the sky, and their quality is yang; Heavy turbidity under the condensation of the earth, its quality yin also... Everything in the world intersects, yin and yang go by, change and develop, endless, there is no same time at all, there is no same place and people... Based on this, you asked me to predict the weather in July and August next year today? How do I know for sure? ”

This...

With Huang Yueying's words, Guan Lin suddenly found that he was too young and simple.

Think about it too, disaster weather... The weather forecasts of later generations may not be accurate, let alone Huang Yueying in this era, Guan Lin pondered... It seems that his expectations are a little too high.

The weather is impossible to predict!

I want to change the way to not ask about the heavy rain, but how to dig through the Han water? Where to build a reservoir? How to divert water and pour it back?

This is equivalent to changing an astronomical and meteorological problem into a physics problem.

I never thought...

Huang Yueying's voice came out again: "Although it is unpredictable, but... There are still some rules to follow. ”

This...

Guan Lin's eyes widened suddenly.

"Regularity?"

"That's right." Huang Yueying bowed, she pointed to Huangjiawan, "I have lived there since I was a child, and I like to record all kinds of things, including annual rainstorms, water flows, weather... I found that every three years, there would be a multi-day rainstorm in the Han River between Xiangfan, and the heavy rain caused the Han River to skyrocket... Therefore, every three years, the Han River would flood Huangjiawan, and my father and I needed to go out to evacuate, so I remember it very clearly! As for the longer term, in ten years, there will definitely be a disaster in the Han River between Xiangfan, which is recorded in the local annals. ”

Three years?

Decade?

Guan Lin recalled, according to his visits and inquiries during this time.

In 213, that is, in the eighteenth year of Jian'an, there was a heavy rain in Xiangfan, and the heavy rain almost washed away the Pinglu City on the west side of Fancheng, and the whole Xiangyang received a huge threat.

According to the description of the sergeant of the Guan family, the father Guan Yu wanted to take advantage of the flood to attack Xiangfan, but that year it was the uncle Liu Bei who broke with Liu Zhang, and the pressure on the battlefield on the Western Front was huge, so he did not take advantage of the Northern Expedition.

Many sergeants of the Guan Jiajun have testified to this article.

And then three years later, that is, the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an, that is the year in history when Daddy flooded the Seventh Army, if... is inferred from this, and the "law" proposed by Huang Yueying has traces to follow, which seems to be a bit reliable!

Immediately, Guan Lin's eyes lit up directly.

Even, he is already thinking about how to make use of this "law of nature", and then cooperate with the digging of the dam to divert Han water to irrigate...

If so, then... The more Cao Jun numered, the worse the defeat.

The ideal state is that Guan Lin will find a way to attract all the Cao army, and then hundreds of thousands of troops will pour back... All of them were submerged here, and they became fish and shrimp in the water!

This is - cut off Cao Cao's roots!

Once!

Sure enough, Huang Yueying's words continued, "According to the law in my memory, there is a big flood in three years and a disaster every ten years here in Xiangfan, if Yunqi wants to use the heavy rain, then maybe next year's high water period can be used, but if the plan is to use the disaster caused by the heavy rain, it may not be enough..."

Huang Yueying blinked her eyes, "So..."

Without waiting for Huang Yueying to continue, Guan Lin preemptively gave up his hand, making a look of being kind and eager to learn, "Here in Xiangfan Waterway, Mrs. Huang is extremely familiar... Where to dig ditches to divert water, where to build dikes and dams in advance to store water, these... I still need Mrs. Huang's advice. ”

This one...

A polite young man bowed and saluted under the moonlight, this knowledgeable appearance, and the atmosphere under the moonlight, made Huang Yueying's heart feel a wanton reverie.

She was wondering if... If she had a son with Kong Ming, she should be so old, right?

Thinking of this, Huang Yueying smiled: "You don't need to salute me, since I am here, I will help you draw the entire drawing... It's just..."

It seems that Huang Yueying has other requirements.

Guan Lin directly interjected: "The juniors understand, this time the water is diverted and irrigated, the juniors are just to win, not to hurt the innocent, after taking Fancheng, they must first rescue the people and avoid the destruction of lives." ”

Huang Yueying has lived in Huangjiawan since she was a child, and she has feelings for the people around her...

She couldn't bear to let her life go unto ruin.

"The battlefield is ruthless, and someone has to take this ruthless step after all, but if you think so, I'm relieved..."

Speaking of which, the plan to divert water to pour water into Fancheng is finalized.

Huang Yueying also wanted to ask about the "Shuishui Villa", the "workshop", and the series of strange inventions, especially the "compound bow" that her uncle Huang Zhong had been trying.

I even wanted to ask my father Huang Chengyan's body through Guan Lin and ask him about his recent state.

Huang Yueying couldn't ask Huang Chengyan about these at all, and as soon as she asked Huang Chengyan, she began to complain, saying that "daughters are raised by outsiders" and "marrying out daughters and spilling water!" ”

It's like an old father who nags his daughter after seeing him.

But Guan Lin spoke first: "Actually, the juniors still have something to do today..."

Huang Yueying deliberately glanced at Guan Lin, and said jokingly: "You kid, I just came, and you proposed two things..."

"The latter matter is not a matter of the juniors, but..."As he spoke, Guan Lin waved to the soldiers on the side, "Zhuge Yuanxun, what are you waiting for?" Why don't you come to see your mother? ”

Guan Lin's voice just fell...

I saw a handsome boy walking quickly, he lowered his head, and seemed to be a little shy.

When he walked to Huang Yueying's side.

With a "snap", he knelt down directly, "Child Zhuge Ke to meet his mother-"

At this moment, Huang Yueying realized that this... I'm afraid that the eldest brother Zhuge Jin passed on to her husband's son Zhuge Ke.

It seems to be a little older, but it's very handsome, polite, and extraordinary...

Overall, Huang Yueying is satisfied.

"You are Yuan Xun, you are... Ke'er? ”

With this sound, under the moonlight...

Zhuge Ke finally met the legendary "mother";

Huang Yueying finally had a son for the first time!

The moon on this night is extraordinarily round, and the word "reunion" seems to be written on it!

…

…

Yecheng, palace.

Xiahou Nan, the son of Xiahou Xuan, strode forward with a group of excited generals.

Xiahou Nan took the lead and knelt heavily on his knees, and exclaimed heartbreakingly, "Dad, General Han Hao is dead, died in the hands of that Zhang Fei, Dad, the child is going to fight, it's okay to go to Bashu, it's okay to go to Jingzhou, the child wants to avenge Han Hao!" ”

Xiahoudun half-sat on the bed, coughing non-stop...

Han Hao is the deputy general who was raised by his Xiahoudun, he is a native of Hanoi County, first Yuan Shu's cavalry captain, and was valued by Xiahoudun, so he joined Cao Ying.

In the past, Xiahoudun counterattacked Puyang and was captured by the assassins sent by Lu Bu, and when everyone panicked, only Han Hao shouted, "Am I going to let you do whatever you want because of a great general?" ”

One sentence scared the thief's guts... It also allowed Xiahoudun to get out of trouble.

When there was a shortage of food in the wilderness, Han Hao urgently rescued the famine and participated in the tuntian!

After the Northern Expedition to the Yuan clan and the four states in the north, Han Hao was appointed to be in charge of the forbidden army together with Shi Lian, and was the most trusted person of Cao Cao and Xiahoudun.

You must know that before Xiahoudun was blind, it was Xiahoudun who was in charge of the forbidden army!

Because of this, Han Hao has a very high status in Cao Ying, and his popularity is very good, and now that he has died at the hands of Zhang Fei, the generals have already quarreled all over the world, and the crowd is excited, and even Xiahoudun's cough sounds a little desolate.

- Ahem, cough, ahem...

Xiahou was also very sad, he struggled to stand up, and his son Xiahou Nanlai was sad to beat his father's back.

"After I was blind in one eye, I was in charge of tuntian and conscription, and I was absent from the battle for a long time... No one grieves more than me for the death of the motoji! But what else can I do? ”

Xiahoudun has never won a war in his life, and he will not be naïve to think that after becoming disabled, his combat power will develop by leaps and bounds.

Son Xiahou Nan reminded: "Dad, didn't the prime minister just send an edict to recruit troops? Didn't this edict put my father responsible..."

Xiahou looked at his son suspiciously.

"What do you mean?"

"Aggravated!" Xiahou Nan said fiercely, "The Shu army killed Han Hao, we need to make them repay ten times over!" ”

understood, and suddenly, Xiahoudun understood everything.

He pondered for a moment, and after a short thought, he opened his mouth and said, "Well, the conscription orders of the counties should be done according to what General Ben said,

Within a month, if you can't complete the recruitment of 1,000 soldiers, or 500 soldiers, you will not only be deposed immediately, but you will also be demoted to a white body, and I will never be hired! ”

As soon as he blurted out these words, Xiahou Nan shook his head again and again.

"It's not going to work, Dad... We should change it to, if we can't recruit a thousand soldiers in Wancheng, not only will we be demoted to white, but we will also be tortured and interrogated, the three clans of the bead chain! ”

This...

If according to what Xiahou Nan said, dare to love others to be officials to make money, and they Cao Wei are officials here, it is simply fatal-
