Chapter 509
North of Yongnian City.

The sky in the east is slightly white, and the morning light is faint.

On the upper reaches of the Fuyang River, Zhao Jun's civil servants were still building dams overnight.On both sides of the dam, among the reeds, two thousand Zhao troops lay in ambush and stood ready.There are bed crossbows in the reeds, three-arrow crossbows, rockets, boats, etc., and iron piles are set up in the shallows to prevent the enemy navy from stealing the dam.

"It's been seven days since the dam was built, and it seems that it's time to dig the dam." Looking at the dam, Li Chongjiu said happily.

The Fuyang River dam is half a mile long and three feet high. It took [-] civilians and [-] soldiers to build it in seven days.Now the area around the dam is full of Zhao soldiers and civilians.

Xu Shiji reported to Li Chongjiu: "Your Majesty, you can do it at any time. Most of our soldiers have withdrawn to the high ground, and Xue Wanche led [-] soldiers to guard Lincheng Tushan."

Li Chongjiu nodded and said, "Start digging the dam!"

After receiving Li Chongjiu's order, more than a dozen large ships from the upper reaches of the Fuyang River sailed down, and Cheng Mingzhen led hundreds of sailors to destroy the dam with giant trees. Then the torrent rolled in, and as the dam was dug, it rushed towards Yongnian City.The soldiers of the Zhao army near the embankment and the civil servants worked together, throwing big stones and soil bags into the lower reaches of the Fuyang River, diverting the river to flow directly towards Yongnian City.

In Yongnian City, Xia Jun on the city wall was terrified when he saw the torrent rushing towards him. The soldiers on the city wall walked around like headless chickens, shouting while walking around: "Zhao Jun will pour water into the city!" Now, run away!"

After the soldiers and common people of the Xia army in the city heard about it, they panicked even more, and the sound of crying and shouting was everywhere.

Liu Heita rushed to the top of the city with his sword in hand, and shouted at the soldiers running around, "Don't panic, keep your position, and those who disobey the order will be executed."

Under Liu Heitai's prestige, Xia Jun's soldiers calmed down slightly.Liu Heikai looked up, but saw a khaki torrent, submerging the forest and fields, rolling straight towards Yongnian City.And the Zhao army camp under the city was also involved in the torrent.

However, Liu Heikai saw that the flood flooded Zhao Jun's camp, and there was silence. It was obvious that people had already gone to the building.

Immediately after the torrent directly covered the city, Yongnian City had two moats, both of which were built to divert Fuyang water. When the flood came, it directly filled the first moat to overflowing, so the water momentum was slightly slowed down, but the back wave followed the front Come, cross the first moat and directly submerge the second moat.

The yellow tide hits directly under the city wall, and after one wave is not flat, another wave rises again. In the middle reaches of the Fuyang River, the original channel is almost blocked. Now the big river diverts and goes directly to the Yongnian City.The torrent, endless, poured directly into the city, and the unstoppable appearance made the feet of the city leaders and soldiers tremble.

Liu Shishan saw that the water was very fast, and said loudly: "Brother, hurry up, it's dangerous here."

Liu Heitai pushed Liu Shishan away and shouted, "What are you panicking about!"

But seeing the tide hit the Yongnian city wall directly, it overflowed several feet high at once.The city wall rammed with loess withstood this huge wave.Seeing that the city wall resisted the force of the flood, the soldiers finally settled down a little.

However, the water still flows from the city gate to Yongnian City.

Liu Heita shook his head when he saw it, and said, "Hurry up, keep the granary, and don't let water enter the granary."

"promise!"

After his younger brother Liu Shishan got the order, he rode his horse directly from the city wall and galloped away from the horse path. The water flooded into Yongnian City very quickly.In an instant, the street was covered with a foot of water. Liu Shishan's horse stepped on the water, and the streets were full of Xia soldiers running around.

In front of the square gate on the side street, countless people slammed on the gate and said: "Quick, do well, let us out, let us out quickly."

But Fangguan Fangding outside the Fangmen yelled to the inside of the Fangmen: "What are you crying for? It's useful to cry here. Go back to your respective houses and get on the beams. I'm sure you'll be fine."

Liu Shishan felt helpless when he heard the words of the square official. These common people are all old houses. Usually, they can break a large lump of soil and urinate, and a hole will be formed. How many rooms can I save.But right now the [-] Xia troops in the city cannot protect themselves, Liu Shishan has no time to worry about the safety of the people, so he immediately urged the horses to go straight to the granary.

Now Yongnian City has become a swamp country. Looking from the top of the hill, Yongnian City has almost become an island in the lake. The east wall of the shortest city seems to be shorter, and one-third of it has disappeared under the flood.The khaki city wall floated alone on the water, and Xia Jun's soldiers stood feebly on the top of the city, powerless.

The main force of the Zhao army has already moved all their camps to the highlands east of the city.Zhao Jun's soldiers watched from the wall to see the flooding of Yongnian City, while the Fuyang River was still pouring into the city.

Li Chongjiu, Xu Shiji and the others took a small boat to inspect the situation of the water attack on Yongnian City. After watching it, they couldn't help being very satisfied with the results of the water attack tactics.Now they turned to land on the earth mountain where Xue Wanche was stationed in the east of the city.

Li Chongjiu and Xu Shiji came to the top of the earth mountain to look at it. The flood had already entered the city of Yongnian. When the flood came, the houses in the city were already soaked under the mud and sand.Yongnian City is also flooded now.

Xue Wanche couldn't help but sneered and said, "I don't know how many days Liu Heita can last?"

Xu Shiji said: "Don't be careless. General Xue, in my opinion, you need to be cautious even if the city is not destroyed."

Li Chongjiu said: "Then wait."

"Your Majesty, I'm only worried about the Turks..." Xue Wanshu said worriedly.

Just at this time, a boat sailed to the Tushan Mountain in a hurry. Zhang Xuansu disembarked from the boat, went straight to the Tushan Mountain and said to Li Chongjiu: "Your Majesty, the King of Handan, General Ma Han, reported that Yu Wenhua and his followers Wei County led [-] elite troops to the west of Handan."

Xu Shiji heard the words and said: "Yu Wenhuaji really can't sit still."

"It's really unwilling to be lonely. Instead of waiting for us to attack Wei County, I came to the city to die myself." Xue Wanshu said angrily.

Li Chongjiu said: "Why get angry, Yu Wenhuaji came to help Yongnian City, this is also reasonable."

Xue Wanshu said: "Yu Wenhuaji also knows that after we capture Yongnian City and destroy Liu Heita, the next step must be to include Hebei. As long as our Zhao army retreats, he can take advantage of Liu Heitai's dying state, and when Li Tangnan attacks Zheng, he can rise again."

Xu Shiji said: "Yu Wenhuaji has a good plan. He thinks our army will fight Liu Heita in a bloody battle, and the teacher is old in the city. No one knows that our army is well-equipped and well-fed."

All the generals nodded at the same time. Li Chongjiu looked at the generals on the earth mountain and said: "Very good, Xu Shiji listened to the order. You will lead an army of 3 to station here and continue to attack Yongnian City. The rest of the generals and I will lead [-] horses to come. Handan, face Yu Wenhuaji."

"Promise." All the generals clasped their fists together and agreed.

Handan city.

Several Zhao Jun escorted one person to the lobby.

This person struggled and said loudly: "Don't kill me, I am a member of the Yuwen family, how could you traffickers and pawns be able to kill me. Believe it or not..."

After this person was escorted to the lobby, a general with a prickly beard was sitting in the hall. When he saw him, he laughed and said, "Damn, don't be rude if you said it, what should you do if you hurt Mr. Yuwen?" ? Not apologizing to Mr. Yuwen."

After hearing this, the left and right soldiers quickly apologized to each other. The man snorted and said, "What tricks are you doing? First hard and then soft. This trip is rare. I, Yu Wenzhiji, don't see much of it?"

Wang Mahan laughed, and said in the foreword: "Where are you playing tricks in front of Mr. Yuwen? I have invited Mr. Yuwen to sit here for a long time, especially to let Mr. Yuwen go."

At that moment, Wang Mahan untied Yu Wenzhi and said to the door: "Is the food and wine ready?"

"Ready."

"Hurry up, send it in, I'm going to surprise Mr. Yuwen today."

Yu Wenzhiji was secretly puzzled at the moment, he thought that after Zhao Xia and the two countries broke their faces, he would die, but he didn't expect Wang Mahan to let him go, there must be something strange in it.At the moment Yuwen Zhiji was also vain and submissive, and said with a smile, "General Wang, what are you talking about?"

After speaking, the two sat down and drank each other, Yu Wenzhi said tentatively: "General Wang wants to let go, maybe the two countries are on good terms."

Wang Mahan sighed and said: "Someone is a rough man, so he cut straight to the point. Right now, King Zhao is besieging Liu Heita's Yongnian City. Now the two armies are facing each other, and the outcome is not decided. But your brother seems to have intentions... Alas, before I knew We have gone a little too far, so please brother Ling let go of the past, why the two families are fighting each other."

"Is it turning hostility into friendship?" Yu Wenzhi smiled confidently at the moment.

"Yes, yes, that's what it means," Wang Mahan patted his head and said earnestly, "King Zhao also asked Brother Ling to send a message to Brother Ling, saying that as long as the two families can stop fighting, After our army captures Yongnian City, we can let Ji and Wuyang counties consider it as a reward, how about the two counties being friends forever?"
I believe you are a ghost, such a Li Chongjiu, and designed to deceive me and my elder brother.Yu Wenzhi sneered from the bottom of his heart, but he said with a smile on his face: "It's great, if you can get two counties without any effort, why not do it. I will go back and persuade my brother. You just stay here quietly Waiting for good news."

Wang Mahan was very happy at the moment, and the two drank a few more glasses, Wang Mahan immediately urged Yu Wenzhi to get up quickly.

Yuwen Zhiji had this intention, so he took advantage of the situation to leave immediately, and the attendants who came to Zhao Jun as hostages were also released together.Yu Wenzhi and his followers were surprised and delighted, it was hard to believe that they could escape like this.

At present, Yu Wenzhi and his entourage hurriedly drove away from the west gate of Handan.

At this moment, Yu Wenhuaji is leading [-] elite Xu Jun to Handan, and meets Yu Wenzhiji and his party on the way.

When Yu Wenhua and the two brothers met, they both shed tears and cried for a while while hugging each other.

After crying for a while, Yu Wenhua asked, "How did you escape from Zhao Jun?"

Yu Wenzhi said: "Of course it's not because of my brother. Li Chongjiu was flustered when he saw that you were suppressing Handan, so he let me go and wanted to ask for peace with you."
