The last three kingdoms

Chapter 904 Flooded Xindu

When it was dawn, the sky did not rise.

After a night of rapid march, the Shu army finally completed the transfer within the specified time.

Now the five armies of the Shu Army have been assigned to more than a dozen places, even far apart. Fu Qian moved to a low hill with the Wudang Flying Army. On the Jizhong Plain, it is very difficult to find some highlands. , this low hill is only slightly higher than the surrounding low-lying plains.

There is no moonlight or starlight, and the sky is even darker than the earth. According to the time given by the hourglass, this point should be the time when the sun is about to rise, but the sky and the earth are still shrouded in darkness. Not a single ray of dawn can be seen.

Zhang Le looked at the sky inexplicably, a drop of water just hit his face, and he felt a cool feeling.

"Oh, it's raining." Zhang Le muttered.

More raindrops poured down from the sky. The Shu army who had experienced this summer moxibustion seemed to be a little excited. Rain means the weather is cool. This kind of hot weather is really enough.

Fu Qian didn't care to enjoy the joy of the long drought and the rain, so he ordered the Shu army to set up camp immediately.Only then did the soldiers of the Shu army realize that they had just rushed to the low hills and had not had time to set up camp. When the Shu army set up their tents and got in, they had already been drenched by the pouring rain.

"Could this be the good opportunity to defeat the enemy that the elder brother said?" Zhang Le said with a bit of pain, isn't it just raining, what's the fuss, dare to love the unexpected surprise that Liu Yin said, it's raining, this time Rain has something to do with breaking the enemy, so can we still count on a heavy rain to wash away the Huns?

"Wait, Ziyue, you said ten days ago that Wenxuan told you that there must be surprises in ten days, but today is the tenth day?" Fu Qian asked as if he had thought of something.

"Yeah, my brother said that ten days ago, but I don't think there's anything to be surprised about when it rains."

Fu Qian looked up at the sky. Although it was no longer that dark, it was still dark, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier. Judging from this sign, it would not stop for a day and a half.

It is rare for anyone to be able to judge the weather change ten days later. Prime Minister Zhuge is a genius in this regard. He once accurately predicted that there would be a month of continuous rain, and thus skillfully retreated Cao Zhen's [-] troops. In the earlier years, Zhuge Liang also staged a good show of borrowing arrows from a straw boat, and it was also because he knew exactly that there would be a heavy fog on the river three days later, and Liu Yin could have known such a heavy rain ten days ago , its foresight and predictability are amazing.

The most difficult thing to grasp of these three winning elements is the timing, location, and people. It is the timing that ranks first. The most difficult thing to grasp, and once the changes in the weather are successfully predicted, the balance of the outcome of the war will be completely tilted.

Only now did Fu Qian understand the reason why Liu Yin wanted them to transfer in time. It was because of the heavy rain, but ordinary heavy rain should not attract Liu Yin's attention, unless that kind of heavy rain could even trigger The torrential rain of the flood, now it seems that Liu Yin ordered the troops to move to the high ground to deal with the extremely large flood.

Fu Qian couldn't help being both afraid and relieved. He was afraid that if the Shu army could not predict the sudden rainstorm in advance, it would probably be trapped in a vast ocean and suffer disaster.What is gratifying is that Liu Yin is not only familiar with military affairs, but also familiar with astronomy and geography. He is really a genius in ancient and modern times.

It is not difficult at all to master the ability of weather forecasting. Liu Yin had special training in the special forces in his previous life. Through the changes in the wind and clouds in the sky, as well as the reflections of some animals on the ground, Liu Yin can grasp the weather in the next few days Changes, especially when there is heavy rain, those snakes and ants react much smarter than humans.

Liu Yin grasped this point and successfully predicted the change of the weather, thus saving the Shu army in the low-lying area from the disaster before the heavy rain came.

This kind of ability can be said to be a miraculous "magic skill" in this era. Zhuge Liang was regarded as a "man of gods" because he could know the time of the sky and break the yin and yang. Don't you just know a little bit about the weather forecast? Why are you exaggerating so much?

However, because of the ability to predict the weather in advance, the impact on the war is not insignificant. For example, the torrential rain this time is precisely because Liu Yin can predict in advance, so that the loss of the Shu army can be avoided.

Also, since the Huns were unable to grasp the news, they were bound to suffer heavy losses in this rainstorm.

Moreover, Liu Yin had every chance to take advantage of the heavy rain to defeat the Huns in one fell swoop.

As we all know, the lowest-lying area of ​​the Jizhong Plain is in the Xindu area. Therefore, the Xindu area is also an area where floods occur frequently. Floods are raging and rivers divert frequently. While Tonghe and Qinghe nourish this land, they have also brought endless disasters to this land.

Manpower cannot compete with the weather. Even in the later generations with advanced technology, people are also unable to deal with sudden natural disasters, such as earthquakes and floods.

However, some things can be used, such as the flood caused by the heavy rain in front of you. If you use it well, you can completely catch up with Guan Yu's feat of flooding the Seventh Army.

Liu Yin has not been resting for the past few days, and sent multiple scouts to investigate the terrain near Xindu, and marked out all the highlands. On the day before the rain, he gave Fu Qian and Luo Xian an order to ask them to Move to higher ground to avoid flooding.

In order to avoid the news from being known by the Huns, Liu Yin deliberately only issued a transfer order to Fu Qian and the others without explaining the reason in advance. Although Fu Qian and the others were kept in the dark, it was difficult for Liu Yin to order understand.But in this case, even if the Huns learned about the actions of the Shu army, they would only mistakenly think that the Shu army would have some conspiracy, and would not suspect that the Shu army was not for the sake of fighting at all.

In fact, the Huns did notice the movement of the Shu army, but they never dared to act rashly before they found out the real intention of the Shu army, which undoubtedly made them miss the good opportunity to escape.
