Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 1199 It turns out that this is their purpose!

"Yinshan, one hundred thousand soldiers, and several men from the Bai family."

Liu Yao spoke very slowly, word for word, almost as if he was gritting his teeth.

Yu Jianling slowly sat down, wiped his forehead, and suddenly realized that he was already covered in cold sweat.

He murmured: "The people are missing, so we have to move the tiger away from the mountain, divide them into divisions, and defeat them one by one... Now that the general has left Luquan City, the next step is to defeat them one by one."

Liu Yao nodded: "If the disappearance of the people is indeed related to them, then they are likely to use their old tricks to force us to submit."

Yu Jianling wiped his forehead:

"No matter how skilled the general is, he still has weaknesses. Every soldier under his command, every citizen in Dongling, and every plant and tree in this land are all her obvious weaknesses."

"I'm afraid the other party has already thought about how to restrain the general. That's why some people are missing, and that's why they dare to use such a small number of people to attack us."

Liu Yao's expression remained calm.

That is a kind of confidence that comes from the heart.

"No, there is still something different. Back then, the men of the Baifu family went to the national disaster together with the soldiers, rushed to respond to the enemy, and finally fell into the trap and died for the country."

"From the moment they set off for the expedition, they were all passive. We are different from them. This separation is part of our plan."

"Even if the opponent has achieved the goal of dividing us, and then wants to defeat us one by one, so what? These are all the generals have anticipated."

What happened in Yinshan is nothing more shocking than hearing it or telling it in letters.

He followed the army northward and never defeated an enemy. He was always like a bystander, witnessing the development of things.

But just because he was watching, he could see it more clearly.

The enemy prepared for the Yinshan incident for several years, or even longer, and cooperated with the traitors in Dongling inside and outside to win such a battle.

This time, the opponent was not an army of hundreds of thousands, and they were not the Bai family army that had rushed to fight.

If the situation is different, the outcome will inevitably be different.

This is his trust in Bai Mingwei.

Yu Jianling responded: "Back then, many outstanding men in the Bai Mansion, as well as my Dongling army of 100,000 people, were buried in the Yinshan Mountains. This time, we are afraid..."

"After all, the opponent has the people in his hands, which means he has a shield that we cannot move. I'm afraid the general doesn't know about this yet. If they use the people to threaten her, I'm worried that something will happen to the general."

Liu Yao said loudly: "Your Majesty, I believe in the general."

These few words are as heavy as a thousand stones.

Liu Yao trusted Bai Mingwei so much that Yu Jianling seemed to be infected.

The cold sweat on his forehead was still there, but his hands and feet were no longer cold and numb.

At this time, Liu Yao spoke again: "As for what other purposes they have in Luquan City, the fox will eventually show its tail, let us wait and see."

When the two of them talked about this, Meng Ziang's voice sounded outside.

"Your Highness, the common people are looking for you if they have something to do."

Liu Yao nodded slightly, and Yu Jianling went to open the door in person: "Mr. Meng."

Meng Ziang ignored Yu Jianling and walked straight to Liu Yao's desk: "Show me the latest water conditions in recent days."

Liu Yao didn't care about his rudeness and handed Meng Ziang the letters he had just screened out about water conditions in various places.

Meng Ziang took the letter, turned it over and found the letter from Luquan County.

He couldn't wait to open it and check, and then he was shocked: "It's terrible!" Yu Jianling was puzzled: "What's terrible? Mr. Meng, what happened?"

Meng Ziang looked at the map on the table. He picked up the brush and circled a place on the map: "Here."

Liu Yao asked seriously: "Sir, is there anything special here?"

Meng Ziang nodded: "Your Highness, the river here is special. There is a big pit where the grassroots live. The river flows into this pit and disappears."

"Crossing this small ridge, water will emerge from the mountain and continue to flow, so whenever a flood occurs, this place will easily become the hardest hit area."

"I just saw the letter mentioning that the potholes are blocked and the water drains very slowly. This area has become a huge pool of water."

Yu Jianling asked: "If it is so easy to accumulate water here, there must be no one living nearby. Even if it is blocked, the loss will not be too great. Why are you so worried?"

But it was Liu Yaoxian who spoke: "Your Majesty, take a look at the terrain here first."

Yu Jianling looked intently, but could not see any clues yet.

Meng Ziang gently slid his finger in one direction, and Yu Jianling suddenly realized: "That's it!"

Liu Yao's expression became extremely solemn: "We have been discussing why they made trouble in Luquan City just now. I think the answer is here."

Mencius said: "If the water here is not released for a long time, it will spread to the other side. Once the dam on that side is overwhelmed and the flood breaks out, the road connecting the north and the south will be completely blocked. This is worse than We need to be more thorough in occupying Luquan City."

"The only solution is to open the valve of the dam immediately when the water overflows, so that the water can be released gradually. If the pond does not accumulate too much water, there will be no risk of the dam bursting."

"But the magistrate of Luquan County is nowhere to be found. The only ones with the authority to order the opening of the dam to release floodwaters are the imperial envoy and his party."

"If this situation continues, as long as we are dragged here for a few days, the dam may burst. If there is any further human intervention, the flood will directly pour out."

Yu Jianling answered: "It's cleared, everything is cleared. From the incident with the county magistrate to the fact that we have no choice but to stay here, it's all a trick by the opponent."

"They keep their manpower here. It would be best if they can get rid of us. If not, then the dam will burst and block the transportation of supplies. In addition, fake gangsters have been messing up the situation recently, so Jiangbei will be in a mess!"

"However, for such an important matter, we should have known about the deployment earlier. Why did you tell us now, sir?"

Liu Yao said: "No wonder, sir, such an important position has always been kept secret. Only a few people, such as the county magistrate and directly superior officials, know about it."

"And these can't be seen on the map at all. If sir weren't familiar with Jiangbei, he wouldn't have thought of going up here."

Meng Ziang said: "The most important thing now is to order the timely preparations to open the floodgates to release the flood. If it is any slower, it will be too late."

Liu Yao shook his head slowly: "No, the most important thing right now is to deal with this group of people quickly, otherwise they will become an endless stumbling block for the next cleanup."

"If we leave this group alone and go straight here to open the floodgates, even if they can't stop us from opening the floodgates to release the flood, they will attack the surviving people."

"The ultimate goal of our trip is to save the people and prevent them from dying due to any factors other than force majeure, so we must clean them up before we can focus on the next thing."

Liu Yao said this, and Meng Ziang had nothing to say.

The three of them discussed for a while and then dispersed.

It was late at night, but the lights in the three people's houses were still on.

It was a sleepless night, and they were so nervous and worried that they could not close their eyes for a long time.

……

On the other side, Bai Mingwei's situation was not easy either.
