Chapter 360: The Man Village is flooded, and Er Qiao finally arrives!
"I wonder if that Manzhai is under this water?"

Wang Ping asked the Han army garrison stationed in Cheqi City.

The guard was a rough man in his 40s. He was wearing thick armor and his robes were already a little shabby, but his face was rosy. Obviously, guarding the city was also a nourishing job.

After all, now that the people are in civil strife, no one comes to take a taxi to ride around the city.

But he can occasionally go out of the city to enjoy the autumn breeze.

"Dangqu Manzhai is under the Danshui River. Why does the general ask this?"

Wang Ping's eyes flickered and he said: "It's the flood season now, and it has been raining in the past few days. Although there is only light rain today, looking at the dark clouds in the sky, I am afraid it will rain heavily. If we can take advantage of this flood season, we can block the water flow." , in less than three days, the dam will be blown up and the barbarian village will be flooded!"

What strategy is best?

Then of course it is to use the power of nature.

Water attacks water attacks.

Whenever possible, almost every general will choose to attack with water.

Hearing this, the guard showed hesitation on his face.

"It only takes three days to store water. I'm afraid even Cheqi City will be flooded."

Wang Ping shook his head and said: "Cheqi City is located on a higher ground. If the water is stored for three days, it will flood Cheqi City by about half a meter at most. It will only last for a moment, but it is of no importance."

How can this be said to be of no importance?
It has become a flooded city.

Moreover, if the rain is too heavy, it will be more than half a meter.

"Although Gong Yi has ten thousand men under his command, there are only 3000 men who can really fight. The general has a lot of troops, so why not lure him out of the city to fight in the field and kill the beast in formation? Why use this water attack strategy?"

Wang Ping disagreed and said: "I only have 4000 people under my command, and they are all newly reorganized Jin people. It is easy for them to break down the Banzhen barbarian tribe's walled city, but if they are required to attack the city or even fight in the field with the regular Jin people's army, That’s absolutely impossible, they don’t have the strength.”

Wang Ping is also a veteran in the army. He is well aware of the strength of his human guards. If these people are to beat up a drowned dog, they are very powerful.

But if they want to fight a tough battle, they don't have the strength yet.

Maybe when we get to the battlefield, we fight the enemy for a few rounds, and then they are completely defeated for you to see.

This is a situation Wang Ping never wants to see.

At the very least, these people have to train for several months until they truly master the killing skills and military formation skills on the battlefield before they can have the strength to fight in the field.

After all, half a month ago, most of them were just hunters in the mountains, not soldiers licking blood at all.

"Moreover, even if it is a field battle, Gong Yi may not leave the stronghold. If he does nothing, wouldn't our time be wasted in vain? Water attack is the simplest, fastest, and least expensive. strategy."

The chariot-riding city guard's eyes flickered, and he finally nodded and said, "In that case, let's attack with water!"

Standing behind Wang Ping is Prince Liu Chan.

The guard of Cheqi City did not dare to really offend Wang Ping.

If he was accused of delaying the opportunity for fighting, he would have grown ten heads, and they would not be enough to cut off.

"In that case, it will be up to the general to take care of the chariots in the city."

The guard also had a smile on his face and said: "They are all serving the country. They are doing their job. There is no such thing as hard work and no hard work."

However, Wang Ping solemnly saluted the guard and said, "If this happens, I will definitely show my merits to the general."

Hearing this, the smile on the chariot city guard's face became even brighter.

"This, this, this is no reward for no merit!"

"How can a general say that he has no merit? If the water attack is successful, the general's contribution is indispensable."

"Needless to say, General Wang doesn't need to worry about the matter of riding in the city. I will make arrangements for it."

Although the chariot-riding city guard was willing to help before.

But this help felt coerced and not entirely voluntary.

After Wang Ping said something, the chariot city guard was already willing to help.

The difference is whether he will support you at the critical moment.

After all, the water attack was going to flood Chachi City. Without the chariot city guard to support him, he, a powerful foreign dragon, would not be able to suppress this local snake!

It would be bad if it messes up the overall situation.

"1000 people went to build boats and rafts, and the other 3000 people went with me to block the water."

The method to stop the drain is very simple.

Block with sandbags.

But the specific methods need to be continuously improved.

At the beginning, the water is gentle. Throwing sandbags can block the flow of water and prevent the sandbags from being washed away by the water.

However, the more blocked the river is, the smaller the river will be and the more rapid the current will be. If you throw a sandbag in at this time, it will be washed away by the rapid current.

Wang Ping's strategy was to drive wooden stakes in the canal in advance, then tie dozens of sandbags together and throw them into the rushing water.

After several days of hard work, 3000 people worked together, and under the guidance of correct methods, the Danshui was really blocked.

Blocking the drain is just the beginning.

The dams must be continuously strengthened to prevent the pressure from increasing and destroying the dams.

"General, you need to pile more soil at the bottom of the dike and pile it up to form an inverted rice shape, so that it can withstand the pressure of water storage."

Wang Ping respected the student from Jiangwu Hall in front of him very much. He asked, "Is this also taught by Jiangwu Hall?"

The latter nodded heavily.

"In the martial arts hall, there is a detailed water attack strategy. Blocking the river is one of the projects. In fact, if you have enough explosives, you can find a place with narrow water and high mountains, and use explosives to blow it up. The water flow can be blocked, but if it blocks the water, it will be difficult for me to blow up the dam. Of course, I can also choose to burn the mountain, but this method takes too long."

The theories of this student from the martial arts hall were one after another, making Wang Ping confused.

Although he didn't fully understand it, Wang Ping knew in his heart: This person who came from the martial arts hall is definitely capable and awesome!
"Even so, the important affairs of this place are in your hands."

"promise!"

Professional matters are left to professionals.

His specialty, Wang Ping, is killing!
The time of killing will be three days later.

brush brush~
God for good.

For three days in a row, it rained heavily. The dam became taller every day, and the water it stored became more and more.

The energy contained in it is already huge.

The boat is almost finished.

of course
It is better to say it is a raft than a boat.

At the mouth of the dam, Wang Ping's eyes were gloomy. He roared and said, "Open the dam!"

Following his order, there was only a loud bang. The dam, which was originally a temporary project, was blown open underneath. Like a thousand-mile dike destroyed by an ant nest, the entire dam collapsed. .

The endless water flow, mixed with sediment, rushed towards Manzhai on the side of Dongtou Mountain in the heavy rain.

That posture seemed like it was the end of the world.

The whole world seemed to be groaning under the pressure.

now.

Danqu Manzhai.

Gong Yi listened to the reports from the people below.

"Your Majesty, after Wang Ping, the leader of the Jinren Guards, arrived at Cheqi City, he did not take another step forward. Instead, he built a dam in the Danqu, seemingly to intercept the water flow."

Stop the flow of water?

No wonder it has been raining continuously in the past few days, but the water flow in the Tangshui is not great. It turns out that the Tangshui has been blocked by the Han people.

"What are the Han people going to do when they block the Danshui River?"

"Maybe it's a water attack strategy?"

Water attack?

He immediately shook his head and said: "The terrain of Cheqi City is not much higher than ours. If we want to flood us, why don't we flood Cheqi City first? Those Han people will not be so stupid."

I don’t know if I’m stupid or not.but
The earth is shaking.

Gong Yi turned pale and asked quickly: "Is it the earth dragon rolling?"

It was not that Badi had never experienced earthquakes, and Gong Yi was still frightened.

"It's not like a rolling dragon, but like a galloping horse."

Thousands of horses galloping?

Gong Yi, the seventh-surnamed Yi king, was stunned for a moment and said: "The Han army came to attack? It's just the Han army entering Ba. How many cavalry troops are there?"

The total number of cavalry in Han Dynasty now is less than [-].

Moreover, even if there were cavalry, they would not be able to use them in the mountainous area of ​​Badi.

While everyone was wondering, there were already panicked shouts outside the hall.

"It's not good, it's not good, the flood is coming, the flood is coming!"

"The tiger god is angry and the flood is coming!"

"Tiger God bless you, Barbarian God bless you."

The shouts outside shocked Gong Yi. He didn't care much anymore. He walked out of the hall and saw, good guy, the water was rolling in the distance, carrying the anger of nature, heading towards Danqu Manzhai.

That posture was as if the god was really angry.

rumbling~
rumbling~
The sound was getting closer.

But Gong Yi's face became increasingly pale.

water attack.

Water attack!

The Han people really used water attack, how dare they?

Aren't you afraid that Cheqi City will be flooded?
This was Gong Yi's last question. Immediately, the sky-filled flood broke through the Danqu Manzhai. Countless people became small boats on the flood. Some people hugged the trees and floated, and some people plopped a few times. , sank into the water and became food for fish and turtles. Some of them were unlucky enough to be hit by stones and wood carried in the water flow, and lost their vitality in an instant.
The original Danqu Barbaric Village has now been transformed into a vast land.

On top of Zeguo, Wang Ping led four thousand guardsmen down the water in boats and rafts.

After all, the water was only blocked for three days. After a while, the subsequent flow of water became a little weak.

Only the raft of the Renrenwei can go down the river at the fastest speed.

Along the river, prisoners were taken in, and those who resisted were killed on the spot.

The raid lasted for three days. After a flood, Wang Ping still captured more than 6000 prisoners.

Among the more than 6000 prisoners, more than 2000 were strong and strong people from the Zhong people. Wang Ping would immediately send these prisoners to Langzhong. After the strong ones among them were transformed, they could serve as the Zhong people's guards.

"It's a pity that among these people, Gong Yi, the seventh-surnamed Yi king, was not found."

If there was one more Gong Yi, his contribution this time would be much greater.

"I don't know if he escaped or died. After all, countless people died in this flood."

Wang Ping nodded.

"No matter what, after Gong Yi's death, the Ti people are leaderless. It's time to bring all the Ti people in Badi under the rule."

There are at least 30 people living in Badi.

even more.

Liu Chan didn't expect that 30 people would actually be found by him.

As long as 10 people are fished out, it will be a big profit.

After capturing tens of thousands more slaves to cultivate fields, open up wasteland, dig mines and build roads, his goal of coming to Badi this time would be achieved.

"The Jin people's guard is divided into four branches, each with 1000 people. They go in all directions. If they encounter barbarian tribes, if they are willing to surrender and surrender, let them go to Langzhong within a month. If they are not willing, they will be killed on the spot!"

Once the Zhiren barbarians in Danqu Manzhai died, it would be difficult for the Zhiren tribe to effectively resist.

Wang Ping's methods naturally became more radical.

"promise!"

The guards and others took orders one after another.

Let them fight the Han army.

They don't have the guts.

But if they were asked to plunder the tribesmen and do things like burning, killing, and looting, not only did they have the courage, but they were also very courageous!
They are not good at confronting others head-on, but they are experts at pinching the weak.

You barbarians!
Why don't you kneel down and kowtow to the Han master?

"This place is so lively."

On the river, there is a boat loaded with cargo moving slowly. Because it is rowing against the current, there are many trackers on the shore, pulling the boat.

In an elegant room on the second floor of Zhouzhou, a young girl opened the window and looked at the people coming and going in Jiangzhou, feeling amazed.

This girl is naturally Zhou Che, the daughter of Zhou Yu.

"My daughter originally thought that Jiangling had the busiest trade routes, but when she arrived in Jiangzhou, she found that the trade routes in Jiangzhou were as busy as Jiangling."

"Jiangzhou is the strategic hub of Yizhou. Materials from Jingzhou, Yangzhou and other places entering Shu must pass through Jiangzhou. Materials in Shu must be transported to outside Shu, and must pass through Jiangzhou. The trade routes here are prosperous. , which is normal."

After entering Shu, Xiao Qiao, who had accepted his fate, calmed down. At this moment, his pretty face was slightly red, and he was still commenting on Jiangzhou leisurely.

Jiangzhou existed during the Shang and Zhou dynasties. Later Qin destroyed the Ba Kingdom and divided the world into 36 counties. Ba County was one of them, and the county governed Jiangzhou.In 316 BC, Zhang Yi built the first "Jiangzhou" city recorded in historical records.

of course
There are two in Jiangzhou City now.

One was built by Zhang Yi, and the other was under construction to protect the city.

Jiangzhou is geographically important, and the city defense was also built to guard against possible attacks by barbarians and Sun Quan from Jiangdong.

"Jiangzhou faces Ershuikou, with the Funei River (today's Jialing River) on the right and the Shuwai River (Yangtze River) on the left. The scenery is pretty good."

Da Qiao was graceful and noble, and his face was slightly pale at the moment.

She was a little seasick, and her body couldn't bear the pain of walking on water.

bang bang bang~
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Zhou Che's black eyebrows stood up, and his appearance suddenly changed from the original Xiaojiabiyu to a more serious one.

"Who?"

"A noble man is a villain."

Er Qiao had such a good life along the way, so naturally Zhou Che took care of everything.

In addition to the special status of Qiao and Qiao, even after Banzhenman took in Qiao Er, he did not dare to make a mistake and raised them as his aunts.

"We've arrived in Jiangzhou. I'm going to take the overland route to Danqu."

Go to Danqu?
"The journey from Jiangzhou to Danqu is more than 600 miles, and the road is rugged. It may take a long time."

Zhou Che frowned slightly, a little displeased.

The man in the merchant's brocade robes said: "Let's take a land route to avoid being discovered by the Han army. After all, we are pretending to be merchants to enter Shu. After walking dozens of miles, we will then follow the waterway to Danqu."

Zhou Che nodded and said, "If I get to Danqu and meet the Han prince, I will definitely ask for a reward for you."

The man smiled flatteringly and said, "Thank you very much, sir."

After the man left, Zhou Che looked at Xiao Qiao and said: "If we take the water route, although it is [-] miles away, we can reach it in more than ten days."

In more than ten days, will we meet Liu Chan, the prince of the Han Dynasty?
Big and small Qiao's hearts were all tight.

"I don't know, what kind of person is Liu Chan, the prince of the Han Dynasty?"

This was the man they wanted to assassinate and the man they wanted to serve. Er Qiao's thoughts suddenly started to swirl in his mind.

"When we meet then, won't my aunt and mother know about it?"

Compared with Er Qiao, who has never been able to leave the room, Zhou Che goes out often and learns much more news than Er Qiao.

After all, this trick of pretending to be a businessman was devised by her!

I heard that Prince Liu Gongsi of the Han Dynasty was extremely courageous.

but.
If you dare to bully my mother, it will be over if I, Zhou Che, don't stop you!
