Chapter 695

"The water that Tuxietubu drinks also comes from this river?" Temur asked in a daze.

"That's right, did you think of something?" Subadhi said, looking at him with a smile.

"What do you think of?"

Temur looked puzzled.

"Temur, you are such a pig-headed man. What Khan means is that you can cut off the water source, so that the Tuxietu Department can't attack itself! Is it Khan?"

A leader next to him couldn't help but interjected.

"That's right! Aren't they good at digging trenches? Aren't they willing to be rats? We can cut off their water source! Let them have no water to eat! Let's see how long they can stand!"

Subadi was very excited, as if thinking of such a strategy, all the previous melancholy was resolved.

"good idea!"

Temur also reacted immediately, and shouted happily.

"We can block the river in the upper reaches, and the water in the lower reaches will naturally dry up. Let's see if they don't even have water to eat, can they keep going! Sweat! Leave this job to me! I'll take someone upstream to cut it off in the morning. source of water!"

"Tomorrow morning, go to the upper reaches of the river to investigate first, to see the width of the water flow, the location of the cutoff, and the manpower needed. Try to cut off the river as quickly as possible!"

"Yes! But we also need to save more water, don't let them finish their water, our water is not enough to drink!"

"That's natural."

Everyone in the tent saw the dawn of victory, and they were all happy.

In the tent in Subadhi, you talked with me in the middle of the night before going back to rest.

Early the next morning, Subadi ordered all the soldiers to go to the river to fetch water in turn. As long as they can hold water, they should be filled with water.

The movement on their side was quickly noticed by Gonpo.

"Why are they running to the river in groups?" Gonpo stood on a high place, looking in the direction of Zasaktu from a distance, and muttered doubtfully.

"Do you want to fetch water for cooking?" Tao Gesi on the side asked tentatively.

"What kind of food requires tens of thousands of people to fetch water?"

"This" Tao Ges was speechless.

Indeed, what kind of meal requires so many people to fetch water?

He thought for a long time, but he couldn't figure out why, so he comforted him:
"Khan, no matter what they do, we just need to stick to the camp and not be breached by them, and let them jump up and down, everything will be in vain."

Gonpo nodded. Hearing what Taugers said, he felt much better, and went to have breakfast on his own.

On the other side, Subadi and others finished their breakfast after fetching water, and Temur led a group of people to the upper reaches of the river from behind.

Temur was a little confused when he saw the river, which was hundreds of steps wide and not slow.

How can such a wide river be intercepted?Besides, he tried it, and the river was not shallow.

"Leader, let's go further upstream, maybe the upstream will be narrower."

"it is good!"

A group of people continued to walk up the river, and walked for a full twenty or thirty miles, and came to a place where the river diverted.

The flow of the river here is more turbulent, but the width is much narrower than that of the downstream.

"Boss, how's it going here? Although the current is a bit fast, the river is very narrow. It may take half a day for a thousand people to stop the river."

"This place is okay. Look further upstream, maybe there is a more suitable place." Temur nodded, and led the people to continue upstream.

After walking for dozens of miles, I haven't seen a more suitable place than here.

So they turned back and reported the situation of the survey to Subadhi.

Subadi did not hesitate much, and immediately made a decision, sending 2000 people to go around the upper reaches, and strive to intercept the river as quickly as possible.

The movement of the 2000 people was not much, and the deliberate detour did not attract the attention of the Tuxietu Department.

Until the next day, the soldiers who fetched water in the morning noticed something was wrong and reported the news to Gonpo.

Reminiscent of the change on the opposite side yesterday morning, Gonpo was terrified!
They are going to attack the river!Let yourself and others have no water, and your own defense will be self-defeating!
"Khan! It must be Zasaktu's dog that stopped the river upstream! They are going to cut off our water! It's shameless!"

Taogus cursed loudly towards the outside, and the others were also filled with righteous indignation and cursed one after another.

Gonpo, on the other hand, kept frowning tightly and said nothing.

After a while, he spoke to stop everyone's scolding.

"The water in the river has become less. They must have tampered with the upper reaches and blocked the river. We can't sit still, we must reopen the river. Otherwise, within three days, our tribe will be in chaos, and we will be destroyed by ourselves!
Tao Ges, you led three thousand soldiers and horses, no, five thousand!You take 5000 people up the river!Open up the river as quickly as possible! "

"Yes, sweat!"

The loyal Taogusi was finally reused, and he agreed without hesitation.Just as he was about to prepare, another tribal leader stopped him.

"Khan, you can't go in the daytime. If they find out, these thousands of people will never return! It's better to go at night, even if they stationed people by the river, we might be able to make a surprise attack at night. Captured!"

Gonpo heard that this was indeed the case, so he asked Tao Gesi to go after nightfall.

After nightfall, Taogus and another leader quietly set off in batches with people.

Gonpo sent so many people because he was worried that the other party would have an ambush. In fact, Suba's first party really didn't expect this. After Temur cut off the river during the day, he didn't stop and took people back to his camp .

When Tao Gesi and his party came to the place where they cut off the flow carefully, they didn't even see anyone along the way.

"Nobody?" Taugers said suspiciously,

"No one is the best, hurry up and dig it out."

"Okay! I will take 1000 people to dig, and you will be responsible for the vigilance!"

"Row!"

After a brief exchange between the two, the work was divided.

Everything went smoothly, and it was much easier to dig the river than to block it.

An hour later, the river returned to its original state, and Taugs was very satisfied watching the rushing river flowing downstream.

"Go back?"

"Back!"

Then they returned to their camp with the people.

"Khan, that Supadi is really stupid. He cut off the river and left. No one is there to guard it. Don't even think about it. Wouldn't we send someone to dig it?"

"Well, well done!"

Gonpo praised him and stopped talking, as if he had thought of something.

After a while, Gonpo looked at the two of them.

"You said, what will happen if they find out that we have dug up the river tomorrow?"

"Should I try to block it again?"

"Then if we say, let's send people to lie in ambush upstream, and then attack them suddenly when the flow is cut off, will they be able to withstand it?"
