The strongest Marquis in history

Chapter 508 The Water Attack Begins

It rained all the time.

It just changed from the heavy rain at the beginning to the patter of moderate rain.This continuous rain is the real plum rain.Because of this rain, the temperature has dropped a lot and the air has become fresh.

On the official road leading to Guangling County, an army was rushing in the rain.

This army is indeed Chen Guo's army.

The leader of the army was named He Zheng, and he was a brave general in Chen Guojun.He Zheng was nearly 40 years old. At the end of last year, he broke through his own shackles and stepped into the realm of a master in one fell swoop.

Since then, He Zheng has also jumped into the dragon's gate and became an important general under Yuan Wei's command.Because of He Zheng's strong martial arts skills, he was able to lead an army alone.After all, in the army, personal strength is a very important part.

He Zheng led his people and hurried on the road in the rain.

"Hurry up, we have to arrive at Guangling County earlier. Once we delay the time and Guangling County falls, we will make a trip in vain. Therefore, we can't delay the time."

He Zheng gave orders as he walked.

Under He Zheng's order, the army also hurried on their way.Even if it rained continuously, the road on the ground was muddy, and the soldiers had one foot deep and one foot shallow when they were on the road, but there was no delay.

The army hurried on their way, braving the rain.

When He Zheng's army was getting closer and closer to Qingwagou, in the forest near the south bank of Qingwagou, Xiao Qingzhi and some soldiers lay in ambush here, waiting quietly.

When the heavy rain fell, the soldiers under his command had already become drowned chickens.

Even if there are coir raincoats and bamboo hats, but soldiers on the march, in order to pursue the speed of the journey, the coir raincoats and bamboo hats have become cumbersome, and it is inevitable that they can only be thrown away, which will affect the speed of the journey after all.

Fortunately, they arrived at Qingwagou first, then arranged everything and made preparations.

"Report!"

At this moment, a soldier came and reported: "Captain, Chen Guo's army is less than three miles away from Qingwagou, and is about to approach the river area of ​​Qingwagou."

"Explore again!"

Xiao Qingzhi gave an order.

He has already figured out all the details of this battle.

The river channel of Qingwagou is full of gravel, which is sand and stones that are beaten quickly, and the river water is very shallow, all at the ankle position.In an area where the official road runs, the road is extremely long, and it is nearly a hundred feet full of Qingwagou River.

Such an area can be entered by countless soldiers.Therefore, after Chen Guo's army arrived, they would definitely spread out on a large scale in order to quickly cross the river.

Exactly, this is the opportunity to defeat the opponent.

Xiao Qingzhi waited quietly, and after a short time, another sentry came back and reported: "Captain, Chen Guo's army is less than one mile away from Qingwagou. Because the road here is not so muddy. Everyone, is moving fast."

"Explore again!"

Xiao Qingzhi gave the order mechanically again.

The soldiers left, but Xiao Qingzhi was still waiting. When the soldiers came to report again that the soldiers of Chen Guo had arrived at Qingwagou and were about to cross the river, Xiao Qingzhi didn't hesitate anymore, and ordered: "Pull the rope immediately and tell the embankment to break and release the water!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers went to inform immediately.

In a blink of an eye, some soldiers began to pull the rope to notify.

The method of this notification was figured out by Xiao Qingzhi himself.In order to grasp the most accurate time to release the water from the embankment, he never took the method of sending someone to notify.

After all, it was raining heavily and the roads were muddy. It was impossible to ride a horse to inform.It is simply impossible to rely on human legs to travel, with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

Even using the method of firing arrows, on the one hand, it is easy to scare the snake.On the other hand, because it has been raining, even though the rain has slowed down, the sound of the arrow was suppressed as the arrow lifted into the sky.

Under this premise, Xiao Qingzhi chose to pull the rope and shake the bell on the rope to deliver the message.

From the place where Xiao Qingzhi was in ambush to the location where the embankment broke in the upper reaches of Qingwagou, there was a distance of about two miles.Xiao Qingzhi divided this distance into several sections, and at every interval, he placed ropes on the ground and made sure that the ropes on the ground were straight lines.

Just pull one end, and the person on the other end of the rope will see it in a blink of an eye.In particular, there is a bell on the rope. When the bell rings, it can be found in advance so that it will not be ignored.In addition, there are soldiers watching along the way to ensure that no one will make trouble.

Pulling the rope piece by piece, in a short period of time, the area two miles away was notified.Of course, this method can only transmit messages over a short distance. Once the distance is further extended, it will be impossible, and it will consume too much manpower and energy.

Fortunately, Xiao Qingzhi's message was satisfactory.In a short time, the soldiers stationed upstream found that the rope had been tightened, and the bell was shaking and resounding.

"Break the embankment and release the water!"

The general in charge has long been prepared.

In the embankment they built, several critical stones were tied with ropes.Now as soon as the order is issued, the soldiers pull the rope, the stone moves, and a large-scale flood immediately begins.

Whoa! !

More and more floods washed away, and in a blink of an eye, there was only a loud bang, and the entire embankment was washed away.

On the Qingwagou river, the accumulated river water began to rush down with a rumble.The speed of such impact, along with the downward flow of water, becomes faster and faster.

All the water flowed continuously, so that in a short period of time, countless floods had submerged the wide river channel downstream, and even caused the river to rise rapidly.

When the river began to rush downstream, the soldiers led by He Zheng had already crossed the river on a large scale on the official road downstream.Because the water flow in the [-]-foot-wide river channel was very small, only reaching the ankles, so the soldiers all let go of their way, no longer lining up like long snakes, each entered the river channel, and quickly went to the other side of the river.

He Zhengren was at the front, and he led the team forward, neither fast nor slow.He has now reached the middle of the river and is walking forward.

A large number of soldiers under his command also spread all over the river, and followed them forward.

A group of people, talking and laughing.

Some people even stopped to wash their feet. After all, they were traveling all the way, and their feet were muddy, with a lot of mud on them.Now there is river water in the river, which can just be washed.

He Zheng was on his way now, already pondering in his mind how to defeat Qi's army.

Arrived at Guangling County, entered the city first and joined Han Song?

Or directly attack the Qi army.

After all, the war is coming, He Zheng must think clearly so that he can make good preparations.

Boom! ! !

Suddenly, there seemed to be the sound of an earthquake.

He Zheng stopped immediately when he heard the voice.He looked up at the sky. It was still raining in the sky today. Although the mist was misty, there was no thunder, which was obviously not caused by thunder.

"not good!"

He Zheng's eyes widened, and a possibility came to his mind.

Water attack!

Upstream of Qingwagou, there is a river rushing in. This is because the enemy wants to flood his soldiers.

It's no wonder that the Qingwagou that entered, the river water didn't rise sharply.You must know that it is raining all the time now, and the river should swell no matter what.But here, it is not affected at all.It's not that the rain is not affected, but that the upstream is blocked, so this is the case.

"Rush, speed up and rush over, the river is coming!"

With a loud cry, He Zheng threw off his legs, and quickly rushed to the other side of the river.

When He Zheng started sprinting, the soldiers under his command also heard the sound of water rushing, and immediately understood.All the soldiers panicked at this moment and ran wildly towards the north bank of Qingwagou.

It's already halfway through now, and I can't go backwards, I can only rush forward.

Boom! ! !

The sound of the river crashing was getting closer, and in a blink of an eye it appeared upstream, and the crashing river could already be seen.

The front river rushes in.

Chapter 509

When He Zheng saw the rushing flood, he was already running wildly.Fortunately, he is a master of the Grandmaster Realm, even on the water, he can walk like flying, and his speed is extremely fast.In a short time, he had already run to the north bank of Qingwagou, and then landed quickly.

One after another, the soldiers under his command also landed.

Waves of soldiers landed, but more soldiers were still running around.

The rumbling water flow has washed over.

The impact force of the water flow at the front was extremely strong. As soon as it rushed into the countless soldiers, countless people were thrown to the ground immediately, and then the water flow continued to sweep.Many soldiers were directly submerged by the current and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Countless soldiers screamed.

Struggling even more.

But the more he struggled, the faster he died under the scour of the flood, and he was submerged in an instant.

This scene fell into He Zheng's eyes.He widened his eyes, opened his mouth wide, his face was already numb, his mind went blank instantly, and he was already in a daze.

Finished!

His army is completely finished!

He has a full [-] army under his command. When the army crossed the river earlier, at least half of the army had already entered the river.Now being washed by the river, countless soldiers were swept away, and countless soldiers were submerged.

The army disappeared immediately.

After a long time, He Zheng recovered.And everything in front of his eyes has already been wiped out, most of the soldiers thumping in the water have been washed away, only a small number of soldiers are still thumping on the edge of the river.

And the soldiers near the shore began to land on the shore.

He Zheng clenched his fists at once, his face was full of anger, and he was even more worried.

The army is defeated, how to explain to His Majesty?

He Zheng looked towards the south bank of Qingwagou.Suddenly, the pupils in his eyes shrank, because as far as he could see, he saw an army rushing out under the rain, and began to intercept and slaughter quickly.

This army was obviously led by Xiao Qingzhi.He has already brought people out to slaughter Chen Guo soldiers on the south bank.Following Xiao Qingzhi's killing, the remaining ten thousand soldiers on the South Bank of Chen Country, on the one hand, lacked a commander, and on the other hand, they were suddenly ambushed.

The entire army collapsed across the board.

Surrender surrender!

Fleeing fleeing!

The slain is slain!

The whole team is vulnerable.

Seeing this scene, He Zheng felt even more heavy.Because the scene happening now means that the army under his command has been completely defeated, and it is impossible to gather these soldiers who have never crossed the river on the south bank.

"Hurry up, let's go directly to Guangling County."

He Zheng was also a decisive person. Knowing that the soldiers on the south bank were unreliable, he directly ordered to hurry.

He could only go to join Han Song.

Then look for a turnaround.

But just as He Zhenggang was about to leave with the soldiers who had landed on the north bank, he suddenly saw a group of soldiers rushing out on the official road on the north bank.The leader is a burly general.

Holding a big knife in his hand, this person had a fierce expression on his face, and he scolded: "Why, you still want to escape now? Surrender immediately, and I will spare you from dying. If you resist stubbornly, you will be killed without mercy."

This person is Cai Yang.

In this battle, Xiao Qingzhi also took Cai Yang along with him.

Cai Yang has sharp eyes. The number of soldiers under his command is not too many, but at least there are 3000 soldiers.

Three thousand soldiers stood in the rain and blocked the road.

Although there are only over a thousand people around He Zheng now, He Zheng wants to escape, and he is not willing to surrender.He is a great master in the Grandmaster Realm, how could he surrender directly?

"kill!"

With a flick of his sleeve, He Zheng directly gave the order to attack.After the words fell, He Zheng himself drew his sword out of its sheath.The saber that He Zheng used himself was heavier than ordinary swords, and it was an epee.

He sprinted quickly with the sword in his hand, heading straight for Cai Yang.

To capture a thief, capture the king first, and take down the leader of this army first, and he will have a chance to kill him.He Zheng launched a sprint towards Cai Yang, and Cai Yang also charged with his sword and led his troops.

Today's Cai Yang, martial art has changed a lot from the past.In the army, he competed with Xia Houhu and Xiao Qingzhi, and his own strength has improved rapidly, and he is already a master in the middle stage of the master realm.In particular, his killing experience is extremely rich. After all, he can resist Xiao Qingzhi's attack, and can resist Xia Houhu for a while. Cai Yang has his own skills.

His sprint speed was fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was already close to He Zheng.When the distance was getting closer, he worked hard on his feet and kicked forward violently.In an instant, a mass of silt flew out with muddy water.

He Zheng rushed forward, caught off guard, was hit by the mud on his face, his eyes were hit, and his vision was immediately affected.

His offensive stopped immediately.

As soon as He Zheng paused, the empty opening on his chest was exposed, and Cai Yang directly slashed down diagonally with his broadsword.The blade slashed across the rain curtain and disappeared in a flash. With a squeak, it tore through He Zheng's robe and cut into his skin.

With one stab, flesh and blood flew away, leaving a foot-long wound.
