Back to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Chapter 310
"One more thing, the three of us take turns to watch, dig, and transport soil. This can speed up the process and get a rest!"

"The villagers a few miles away are likely to notice the anomaly here, so if we complete the task one day earlier, we can leave this dangerous place one day earlier!!"

"Understood!"

"Okay! Let's start!! I hope God will forgive us! We are thinking of millions of people in Qingzhou!"

The three of them started to move quickly, digging quickly along the place where there was a trace of water seepage. At first, the two dug together, and one person searched for some branches and firewood around to cover the place, and slowly dug the hole. After it got deeper, one person had to dig and one person transported the soil, and the process slowed down, but even so, it only took one day at most for the hole to be dug through!
The flames of war are roaring everywhere in Qingzhou, and the soldiers are shouting. Every moment, people lose their lives and fall unwillingly in a pool of blood.

The people of Dong'e County are still immersed in the joy of ending the local war!Also because of the withdrawal of the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou, the pressure among the people dropped suddenly, and the people began to live and work in peace and contentment. They went to the fields one after another to start a year of spring plowing, but no one realized that a huge man-made disaster was coming!

"Hurry up! The water seepage is getting bigger and bigger now, and it is estimated that in half an hour, it will definitely be dug through!" The leader of the Qingzhou soldier said with joy to the other Qingzhou soldier who kept transporting soil.

Outside the cave, the sound of hooves suddenly sounded, and a healthy brown horse galloped forward with a scout on its back.

The scouts on horseback were dressed in Lu Bujun's uniform and whistled non-stop. This whistle was the secret signal of Cao Cao's army.

The Qingzhou soldier who was watching the wind was startled at first, but found that the scout was someone he knew. He was overjoyed immediately and came out of the dark, and the two met.

"Why did you come here? Did the lord's order change?? My eyelids kept twitching today, thinking in my heart, should we not do such outrageous things?" Qingzhou soldiers laughed dryly.

"No, you have done a good job. My lord sent me here to check the progress. If the matter can be successful, I can make arrangements for the next step immediately! By the way, where are the two of them?" The scout asked with a smile.

The Qingzhou soldiers who were watching the wind looked around, cautiously, and said: "Keep your voice down, it will be successful soon, they are digging the soil!"

Just as he was talking, suddenly there was a roaring sound from under his feet!
The water rushed out of the newly dug hole with the soil that had not been transported away in time, and the momentum was amazing!
"Not good! Something happened! The two of them haven't withdrawn yet!!" The Qingzhou soldier who was watching the wind said in horror.

The mouth of the cave washed by the water became bigger and bigger, and then with a bang, the dam on the top of the cave collapsed, and the water flow became even stronger in an instant!
But the two Qingzhou soldiers who dug the hole still didn't see the foot!

"They must have been stunned by the sudden rush of water! Let's save them!!" At this moment, the Qingzhou soldier murmured, but when he turned around and wanted to ask the scout for advice, his pupils suddenly widened shrink.

A cold light has already waved towards his neck! !
With a puff, the Qingzhou soldier's eyes widened in disbelief, and he turned dizzily, his head flew to the ground, blood spurted out, and the headless corpse also fell down.

The scout kicked the head on the ground into the breach with a disgusted kick, and said to himself: "Okay! Now no one will know that this is an order from the lord!!" Jump on the horse and leave quickly.

Behind him, in a bush of jars, at this time, there was a man in shock, with a face full of horror, he exclaimed, but then he tightly covered his mouth with his hand, fortunately, his voice was not loud , was covered by the sound of water flowing in the roaring breach, and did not attract the attention of the leaving scout.

"I didn't expect the lord to treat us like this!!! It's a pity that both of them are dead, and me, what should I do? My family is still in the hands of the lord. If they know that I am not dead, they will definitely be in danger! ..." This Qingzhou soldier who escaped from the flood was the leader of the three Qingzhou soldiers who dug the cave.

He hesitated for a moment, his eyes suddenly turned resentful, as if he had made a major decision, he quickly disappeared into the woods.

Behind him, there was another roar, and the breach several feet wide was pushed back several feet at this time, and the water flow became even more turbulent!It rolled up the waves that were more than ten feet high, and rushed towards the village not far away.

The villagers in the village fled in horror upon hearing the sound! !But before they ran far, they were thrown to the ground by the flood. Most of the villagers could swim and emerged from the current, while a small number of villagers who could not swim were bobbing up and down in the waves, and soon there was no movement.

"Report!!! The big thing is not good!! The Yellow River has burst!!"

Shocked by the sudden news, Lu Bu stood up abruptly, and shouted angrily, "How is this possible!! Given the current water level of the Yellow River, it is impossible to breach the river!!"

"It's true! I saw with my own eyes that the northern part of Dong'a has been flooded! In half an hour at most, the flood will rush to our army's camp!!" The scout's voice was terrified.

Soon, several scouts came to report in panic. Lu Bu had to believe this was the truth. He glanced at the city of Linyi, which had not been conquered after a long battle, and ordered: "Let's retreat! Cross Liangshan and retreat to Dongping Kingdom! No matter how big the water is, it will never overwhelm Mount Liang!"

Lu Bu sent countless scouts to inform the villagers in Dong'e to retreat in the direction of Liangshan.

Geng Liang, the Prime Minister of Dongping Kingdom, learned that Dong'e County was flooded, and immediately mobilized all the ships in the territory according to Lu Bu's order, sailed to Dong'e and Juancheng through Juyeze, and rescued the affected people.

As for Juancheng in Yanzhou, because of its high terrain, the flood was blocked when it reached several miles outside the city, and did not reach Juancheng.

……

In Taishan County, the prefect Zang Hong has already taken up his post. After the handover, Jian Yong and Zhao Wang are going to lead the remaining [-] troops to cross Mount Tai with food and grass, and go to Laiwu City to meet Feng Yao. The Yellow River burst and Dong'a was flooded. When the news came, the two were shocked, and immediately sent several agile men to Laiwu as quickly as possible to tell Feng Yao the news.

After three days of sunny days, the ground outside Laiwu City has basically hardened.

Cao Cao had already filled up the north side of the moat, and sent dense buildings to try to approach them forcefully, but the buildings were either destroyed by catapults, or burned to pieces by firewood thrown from the city!
On the edge of the cloud ladder, with the cover of the building car, it was once built on the city wall, but Feng Yao beheaded and repelled them one by one.

In the past three days, Cao Cao has lost nearly [-] troops. Xiahou Dun, Cao Xiu, Cao Chun and others are all wounded!
However, Cao Cao was not angry. At this time, Linyi's [-] elite Qingzhou soldiers and [-] Yellow Turban soldiers, led by Xun Yu and Le Jin, rushed towards the east after receiving the order.

Wei Yan, under Feng Yao's order, has captured Yuling City and Tugu City, two important county towns, and entered the Jinan Kingdom. He is preparing to gather all his troops to capture the Jinan Kingdom's seat - Dongping Mausoleum in one fell swoop. However, Wei Yan didn't know that at this time, there were hundreds of thousands of troops heading east, and they would meet him soon!
