Chapter 647: Flooding Gaotang Prefecture
"Withdraw! Town! ”
Li Cheng was the first to react, no matter what the thieves were, it would be impossible to fight in this heavy rain, the ground was muddy in the rain, it was very difficult for both cavalry and infantry to move, and it was easy to catch the wind chill and break out of the plague when fighting in the heavy rain.

The already frightened army rushed to the city, and everyone in Zengtou City reacted the fastest, and the cavalry directly occupied the city gate first, blocking the others out.
"Haha!"
Looking at the enemies rushing towards the city in a mess, Sun Lei laughed.
"It's raining!"
Everyone looked at Gongsun Sheng and the others on the Seven Star Altar in surprise.
"This coat is not worn in vain, it is really a good thing to prevent rain!"
Sun Lei pressed the brim of Fan Yangli's hat and said with a smile.
"Back to camp!"
Sun Lei ordered at the army.
In the Liangshan barracks, all the tents have already been made of logs, and the top of the tents has also been waterproofed to ensure the dryness of the tents.
"Gongsun Daochang, Qiao Daochang, and Fan Rui brothers have worked hard."
Sun Lei looked at the three people who were soaked and said with a smile, because they faced the wind and rain on the Seven Star Altar, none of the three of them were spared and became soup chickens.
"Brother, this heavy rain will rain for three or four days!"
Gongsun smiled and hugged his fists.
"Three or four days! Well, that's enough! ”
Sun Lei smiled and nodded, this kind of heavy rain for three days is enough to do a lot of things.
"Tao Zongwang, take two thousand soldiers to the west of Gaotang Prefecture to cut off the river, I want to flood Gaotang Prefecture!"
Sun Lei looked at Tao Zongwang and said.
"Brother preparing for a water attack?"
Only then did everyone understand Sun Lei's intentions, this heavy rain would cause the river to rise sharply, and the conditions for water attack would be met.
"Yes, this time the enemy is relatively strong, and he has the initiative, so we will definitely not be able to fight hard."
Sun Lei nodded with a smile and said, Gaotang Prefecture now has more than 40,000 troops, including 30,000 in the Daimyo Mansion, 10,000 in Lingzhou, Kouzhou, and Zengtou City, and 6,000 cavalry in Zengtou City.
The terrain near Gaotang Prefecture was not dangerous, and there were hardly many things that could stop the cavalry, so after he heard that it would rain heavily, he thought of using heavy rain to block the cavalry, and then attack by water.
"Master Lu, Qin Ming, Hua Rong, and Pang Wanchun took the soldiers and horses of the headquarters to cover in batches."
Sun Lei looked at the rest of the people and said, he intercepted the river and accumulated water, and it was impossible for Gao Tang Prefecture to sit idly by.
"Yes, brother!"
Everyone stood up and hugged their fists.
The pouring rain had no intention of stopping, and the faces of the people who returned to the city were not very good-looking, and the enemy could call for wind and rain, no matter how they thought about it, it was not a good thing, and they could not deal with it at all.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Song Jiang was in a very good mood, his strength was not the strongest in this army, and he didn't have much right to speak, this difficult situation was the most beneficial to him.
"Thieves can call the wind and rain, how can this be beaten?"
Zeng Tu looked at Gao Yao and asked, this kind of enemy is no longer something they can deal with.
"There's definitely something wrong with that!"
Seeing that everyone had looked at it, Gao Yao immediately spoke, and at this time, people were panicking, and he had to stabilize these reinforcements.
"What is the problem, the enemy is calling for wind and rain, that is what we have seen with our own eyes."
Zeng Mi opened his mouth and said, they are here to deal with ordinary enemies, not against some demons.
"Who will call for wind and rain, it must be a trick, it is very common to rain this season!"
Li Cheng opened his mouth and said, as a soldier, he didn't believe in these ghosts and gods, although the enemy did succeed in calling for wind and rain today, but he calmed down, he still firmly believed that there was a problem inside.
"What's the use of guessing, it's better to go out and fight for a while!"
Lu Junyi spoke.
"How can it rain so hard? As soon as you get out of the city, you're stuck in the mud! ”
Wei Dingguo shook his head and said, he is a Shenhuo general, he is the best at using fire, and this kind of heavy rain weather is what he hates the most.
"Don't be impatient, isn't it a heavy rain, he asks for the rain to succeed, how long can this rain fall, at most a few days the rain will stop, the sun is big at this season, and the ground will be dried in two days! When the time comes, let's go out of the city and kill the enemy! ”
Gao Yao looked at the crowd and said, all they had to do was wait a few days.
"Rest assured, that Chai Jin is still in prison, it's not us who should be anxious, it's Sun Lei!"
Gao Yao laughed again, he also has a killer weapon - Chai Jin, now that I think about it, it was really a wise move not to kill Chai Jin.
"That's right, Sun Lei is here to save Chai Jin this time!"
Shi Wengong and the five tigers of the Zeng family all laughed when they heard this, why should they be afraid of Sun Lei when they have hostages in their hands.
Li Cheng, Suo Chao, Lu Junyi and other people from the Daimyo Mansion had different faces, and they didn't want Chai Jin to make a fuss about the hostage, which would damage the prestige of the officials and the army, and the disgraceful thing of kidnapping tickets and extortion should be done by thieves.
Song Jiang had a different mind.
Song Jiang was reluctant to do this, he was well-known in the rivers and lakes because he was timely and righteous to squander money, help the needy, and enjoy a good reputation in the rivers and lakes.
Chai Jin is a well-known extravagant man in the rivers and lakes, he is already unrighteous if he does not go to the rescue, if he takes Chai Jin as a hostage again, then his reputation in the rivers and lakes will be ruined.
Although Song Jiang is now Zhao'an, he still cares a lot about the fame of the rivers and lakes, after all, he has nothing to do with the officialdom, and his network is all in the rivers and lakes.
"Report, no, the enemy is cutting off the river upstream!"
A soldier hurriedly ran into the palace and shouted.
"What? Upstream of the river! ”
Gao Yao's face changed greatly when he heard this, the so-called river is the river that flows through Gaotang Prefecture.
"It's not good, the thief wants to learn from that Guan Yu, with the help of heavy rain, accumulate river water, and pour it into Gaotang Prefecture!"
Holy Water General Shan Tingqi immediately got up and looked outside in horror, if this pouring rain kept falling, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Flooding!"
The rest of the people could not sit still, and now they did not care about any enemy who would call for wind and rain, and if the flood flooded the city, none of them would survive.
"Quick, get out of town!"
Zeng Tu said to several brothers around him, they are cavalry, as long as they go out of the city, they can always run through the flood, if they are in the city, they will wait for death.
"Get ready to get out of town!"
Li Cheng also looked at Suo Chao, Lu Junyi, and Song Jiang and said.
"But with such a heavy rain, where can we go?"
Deng Long pointed to the pouring rain outside, what is the difference between going out in this kind of weather and looking for death? Li Zhong, Yan Shun and others next to him were also reluctant to go out of the city.
Soon, there were more and more voices of opposition, and the brothers in Zengtou City even had disputes.
It is still a trivial matter to march out of the city in heavy rain, the wind is cold and the rain is cold, and the body can not stand it at all, and there is no way to make a fire to cook in the heavy rain, how can tens of thousands of people have so much dry food to eat, and they are hungry in the rain, and going out is equivalent to death.
"Let's go check it out first! It's not safe to go out of the city, so Sun Lei may be ambushing outside the city. ”
Song Jiang looked at Li Cheng and said, he didn't want to take people out of the city in this kind of weather.
The group finally reached a consensus, and together they walked to the top of the city wall, and through the misty rain and mist, they saw the enemy working on the river in the distance.
The prototype of a water village has been built, and the water level of the river flowing through Gaotang Prefecture has not risen at all, how can the water level not rise on such a rainy day, which makes everyone's hearts even more uneasy.
"They intercepted the river, they really want to flood Gaotang Prefecture!"
Shan Tingqi looked at all this, and he didn't understand what the enemy wanted to do.
