Chapter 601: Flooding Spring Dew City

The Eighth and Fourteenth Corps, which had stayed at the lower pass, quickly marched eastward, leaving them with the only option of opening up the grain route and securing the few cities that had been recovered. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The 22nd Army Corps on the other side of Chunlu City also moved, advancing upstream of the Chunlu River, apparently bypassing the area defended by the Mong army and receiving the 12th Army Corps, which was in danger of being surrounded.

The Three Kingdoms Alliance took the lead in breaking the short-term state of confrontation and invested more than a million troops to concentrate in Nanqiu County, looking for an opportunity to confront the Shaodian Army.

Jiang Xi, the commander of Nannuma Prefecture, judged that Helian Yu was unwilling to stretch the front and project the main forces to a place where she could command.

On the morning of 14 April, Ma pre-camp went out to inspect the camp, and the officers and men were busy preparing breakfast.

"Sir, the barracks opposite are quiet, a little abnormal. "There is a staff officer to remind Ma Pre.

Ma Yu looked across the bank, the Shaodian army camp was lifeless, it stands to reason that they should also bury the pot to make food, and they don't plan to attack the city to maintain the physical strength of the soldiers, but they don't see any other moving objects except the fluttering flags.

The sky was still gloomy, there was no rain for several days, but the water level of the river had risen a little, and it was estimated that there would be rain upstream, but it was not rainy, and the impact on the downstream was limited.

"Could it be the enemy's trick, trying to lure us into attacking. Ma Yu didn't dare to act rashly.

The military order he received was to stick to Chunlu City and assist in the defense of Juyang City, and it was not his task to attack and destroy the enemy.

"Do you want to summon a naval warship to test the attack?" the staff officer suggested.

"The patrol boat will be here almost noon, and they will come without summoning them, and they will record the situation and wait and see. "Ma prep prefers to respond to change with the same.

Boom, there was a muffled thunderous sound in the distance, and the fine sand and gravel on the ground were beating.

Ma Yu suddenly turned his head to look at the upper reaches of the Chunlu River, with a look of surprise on his face.

"What's going on? Is the enemy's 22nd Army going over there? Send someone to take a look. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, "Come back to the city with me, and order the four gates to be closed." ”

On the Hump Mountain on the other side of the river, Zhang Jie's gaze swept over the turbulent Meng army camp, looking thoughtful.

"Subordinate Feng Liang, see Lord Zhang. Feng Liang came behind Zhang Jie in full gear.

"What is Gu Shuai looking for Ding Kui to do, when will he come back?"

"This subordinate really doesn't know, but the captain has instructed him to take care of the ignition of the fire. Feng Liang had a guess in his heart based on today's order of the legion, but it couldn't be used to answer Zhang Jie.

"Hehe, we don't have to guess, the flood is coming. Zhang Jie took out his binoculars and aimed to the west.

The sound of the water pounding continued, and the sound became louder and louder.

A wall appeared in the upper reaches of the Chunlu River, a wall composed of water waves, like more than 10,000 war horses marching in unison. There was a small black dot above the tide line, and the blue light kept shooting at both sides of the river, as if restraining the tide above the river bank and rolling downstream.

"Quick, order all the soldiers to retreat! Retreat to the high ground!" Ma Yu had already arrived at the gate of the city, and the sight of the upper reaches of the Chunlu River frightened him.

Tens of thousands of troops outside the city, it is too late to enter the city at this time, and if the city gate is not closed, the flood will cause greater damage to the city, and it will endanger the 20,000 elite soldiers guarding the city. If you can't run away from the flood, there is only one dead end, obviously you can't get out of contact with the Shaodian Army, and the future of Chunlu City is worrying.

"According to reliable information, Master Tan Shang will come to help in the battle today, and he must be the one who is above the tide. Liang Chong also ran to see the movement when he heard it. His news is estimated to have come from Liang Gongna, and there is usually no falsehood.

"How's the raft doing?" asked Zhang Jie.

"The time is too rushed, and only twenty percent can be completed, but Gu Shuai has arranged for the troops to secretly catch up, so we can have half of us to catch up with this battle." Liang replied.

"Hey, I'm afraid that 20% of us will also contribute, Ding Kui is not here, and we will not have our share in this battle. Zhang Jie's mood was complicated, and his expression was very melancholy.

"Oh, my lord, Captain Ding has done a miracle under you, and who will dare to underestimate the 201st Division in the future. Liang Chong reacted quickly.

"It's just that I'm suffering you. Zhang Jie reached out and patted Liangchong on the shoulder.

"Hahaha, can there be those people on the other side of the river?" Liang Chong pointed to Meng Jun on the other side of the river, "It is lucky to be a comrade with Captain Ding, and when he is mentioned in the future, he will inevitably mention the 201st Division, and our group of people in the same period will share the honor and disgrace." ”

Looking down from above, Tan Shang rode the waves along the river, and when he was about to arrive at Spring Dew City, he put away his magic and untied the shackles of the flood.

The out-of-control water swooped down the river bank like a tiger, swept away towards the lower places, and when it encountered a slight obstacle, it raised a wave and covered it, drowning everything in an instant.

The soldiers of the Meng army who were waiting for breakfast were stunned, except for some of the powerful officers and soldiers who rushed to the road, the rest either rushed to the nearest wooden block or rushed to Chunlu City. The twenty-meter-high city wall was the last refuge in their eyes.

The river turns at the foot of the Hump Mountain, the terrain becomes high in the south and low in the north, and the flood first rushes to the south bank, and then rebounds to the north bank, where the north bank is repeatedly hit by heavy waters, and even the trees more than ten meters high are swept away by the flood, not to mention the artificially built houses and camps.

The only city that stood in the water was Chunlu Castle, which was built on the banks of the river and had a solid foundation to withstand the floods, giving the soldiers and civilians in the city time to climb to the heights and avoid the crazy rise in the water.

Whew, a dark red figure rushed into the air, and the foot fire bat flew towards Tan Shang.

"Gu Shuai, do you really want me to cast a forbidden spell to destroy the city wall? There are still more than 100,000 civilians in the city. Tan Shang frowned.

Looking at the barracks where the soles of his feet were completely engulfed by floods, Gu Jun shook his head and said, "Okay, leave the rest to my subordinates, after the flood peak, they will cross the river on a raft." How long will it take for the water to recede?"

"At least the ground will not be exposed until tomorrow night, and the aftermath of the flood will rush to the town of Nanqiu, and no enemy reinforcements will arrive for two days. Tan Shang's brows stretched slightly.

"Then attack the city tomorrow morning, and I will protect the Dharma for you and disperse the defenders at the head of the city. ”

In such an environment, Gu Jun believed that no one could resist him joining forces with Tan Shang, even if Lou Ling and Hong Jin were here, they had to back down, so far they had not heard that the Three Kingdoms Alliance had a water forbidden magician to participate in the war.

At this time, the water on the south bank of the Chunlu River was too deep to the top, and the river water upstream was still rolling in, and the raft made by the Shaodian Army would be washed away if it was thrown out now, not much better than the Meng Army.

Ding Kui and Ao Yu fell into the big boat where Jin Man was, and the torrential rain in the upper reaches of the Chunlu River gradually became smaller.

"I didn't expect your own soldiers to have this ability, how did he summon this rain?" Jin Man personally went to the bow of the ship to greet him.

"Hehe, I was also blindfolded when I was in heaven just now. Ding Kui pulled out a strip of cloth and shook it, "He said that it is the secret method of people who do business on the sea, and it cannot be passed on to people on the mainland." ”

"It's really. Ao Yu said in his stomach.

"Understood, Ben Shuai shouldn't ask. The order went down, and after the water slowed down, the anchor was lifted, and the large and small boats crossed the river together. Jin Man didn't ask any more.

The moment Tan Shang used his magic to break through the temporarily built dam, Jin Man expected that Chunlu City was in the pocket of the Shaodian Army, and the next thing he had to think about was how to enter Nanqiu County, and it didn't matter how Ding Kui's personal soldiers summoned the heavy rain.

According to the military history of Shaodian Kingdom, Ding Kui of the 21st Army accurately predicted the heavy rain in the upper reaches of the Chunlu River, the 22nd Army built a dam to store water overnight, and the forbidden magician Tan Shang and Hong Feng flooded Chunlu City in one fell swoop.

In the evening, thousands of large and small boats and rafts crossed the Chunlu River, went around to the north of Chunlu City to find high ground and landed, completely blocking the road of Nanqiu County Town to rescue Chunlu City.

In the early morning of the next day, countless rafts floated down from Hump Mountain, and the recuperated 21st Army crossed the river to attack Lucheng.

The chief magician of the Meng Thirteenth Legion, who was stationed in Nanqiu County, and Tang Min, a forbidden magician of the fire system, rushed to Chunlu City to help.

Tan Shang and Gu Jun unceremoniously besieged Tang Min.

In the Spring Dew City like a country, where is Tang Min Tan Shang's opponent, plus Gu Jun doesn't even have the strength to fight back, so he has no choice but to retreat. Unexpectedly, he was attacked by Ao Yu on the way, and this great martial artist who could transform the green dragon also pressed Tang Min to fight.

Seeing that Gu Jun and Tan Shang were outflanked, Tang Min angrily used a talisman, covered himself with the ultimate flame shield, and fled to Nanqiu County without looking back.

"Tut-tut, magicians with teachers are different, seventh-level shields, we can't break them if we're tired. Tan Shang was not only envious, but also envious.

In just one morning, the 21st Army captured Chunlu City, and the commander of the Meng Fourth Army Corps, Ma Pre, killed himself, becoming the highest-ranking military person killed by the Three Kingdoms Alliance Army since the Nanmara State War.

The water finally receded, and the muddy ground was exposed outside the city of Chunlu, and Ding Kui and Ao Yu greeted the 201st Division that had just crossed the river outside the south gate.

"Ding Kui, the first team under him, greets your lord. ”

More than a month after leaving the Winger Pass, Ding Kui saw his division commander again.

"Well, I met Xue Chong on the way here, and said that you have done a good job along the way, and the special operations team will definitely be able to establish countless feats under your leadership in the future. Zhang Jie held Ding Kui's shoulders and looked at him for a while.

"The subordinates will live up to the high expectations of the adults and the Xue team, and vow to repel all enemies who invade our country!" Ding Kui's clear eyes looked at Zhang Jie.

"If someone else says this, I must be bragging, but when it comes from Captain Ding's mouth, he feels uplifted, and the military prestige of the 21st Legion should be like this. Liang Chong came up and shook Ding Kui's hand.

"The good counselor has an overreputation. Ding Kui's face rarely turned red.

"Hahaha, now I want to go home to retire, the Commander's Mansion will at least give me the treatment of a deputy commander, from the surprise attack on the town of Beiguan to the flooded Spring Dew City, you kid has won me too much credit, if it weren't for the flood, I would have invited you to have a drink." Zhang Jie laughed and took Ding Kui's hand and went into the city together.

Just after the flood, it was not suitable to garrison troops outside the city, so the entire army of the 21st Army Corps marched into Chunlu City.
