Han Shimou

Chapter 86

Tick ​​tock tock tock tock.

The storm seemed to be like an energetic child who would not leave once he had had a good time.This heavy rain continued for five or six days, causing the water level in Linhe City to rise several feet.Some soldiers who were not tall had to roll up their trousers when they went out into the streets, and the stagnant water could almost seep to their knees.

The heavy rain was so crazy that Xu Huang and Gao Shun led their soldiers to brave the heavy rain, and it took three days to clean up the battlefield outside the city and count the results of the battle.

In the battle of defending the city six days ago, the Qiang and Hu people attacked wildly and did not hesitate to sacrifice.The number of deaths was very high. The defenders of the Han army wiped out a total of [-] Qiang Hu iron cavalry, [-] gold sword warriors, and [-] Qiang Hu sword and axemen, killing a total of [-] enemies.On the other hand, the defenders of the Han army, because of Xu Huang's proper command, effectively prevented Qiang Hu's violent attack and greatly reduced casualties.

Except that hundreds of knife and axemen were able to successfully log in to Linhe City through the ladder and contact the Han army, the Han army suffered less than a dozen casualties.The rest had no direct contact.This can be said to be a miraculous victory. Gao Shun helped to count the results of the battle. When the results of the battle were counted, he couldn't help taking a breath, and looked at Xu Huang with incredible eyes.

On the other hand, Wen Han, who was listening on the side, showed a flat smile. As a time traveler and familiar with history, he certainly knew Xu Huang's ability.Moreover, the Qiang and Hu people are not good at strategy, they only know how to confront people head-on.For Xu Huang, a general who is proficient in defending the city, it is strange that he cannot achieve such results.

Because the crazy heavy rain has never stopped, the Qianghu people have not moved for five or six days. Wen Han once ordered several scouts to ride horses and brave the wind and rain to watch the Qianghu people's base camp.Listening to his report when he came back, the Qiang Hu people had not yet withdrawn their troops, as if they were determined to fight to the death with the Han army in Linhe.

Wen Han shook his head, secretly thinking that the leading general Keba Wuyan had lost his mind.If it was an ordinary general, seeing the heavy rain and thinking of camping in the mountains, most of them would choose to withdraw their troops because they were afraid of the danger in the mountains due to the heavy rain.Otherwise, once there is a landslide, it will end up covering the whole army with soil.

Wen Han also thought about leading troops to the top of the mountain, artificially causing landslides, and burying the earth.However, the rain was too heavy, and the wind was even more severe. Wen Han led the soldiers to the mountainside, and several thin soldiers were thrown away, and some trees that were cut by lightning rolled over from time to time. It was my group who encountered landslides instead. Fortunately, they escaped fast enough to avoid causing many casualties.

The movement on the mountain attracted the attention of the Qianghu people. The Qianghu people seemed to have guessed Wenhan's thoughts, and moved the camp half a mile away to the Yiping hillside, where it was safer. If there was a landslide, the Qianghu people There is also enough time to escape, so that the whole army will not be wiped out.

Seeing this, Wen Han had no choice but to give up and waste this great opportunity.

At this time, in the meeting hall of the Linhe county magistrate's mansion.

Gao Shun was pacing back and forth anxiously, while Wen Han was concentrating on the map on the table, frowning deeply, as if thinking of a solution.Guan Yu and Xu Huang drank tea quietly, not disturbing Wen Han's thoughts, but sometimes Gao Shun strode too far and made noises.

At this time, Guan Yu and Xu Huang will remind him not to influence Wen Han with their sharp eyes.

click.

Gao Shun accidentally made another sound under his feet, Guan Yu couldn't help but just wanted to ask him to sit down and not to leave.But Gao Shun spoke first.

"Oh, you said, why hasn't the governor's rescuer arrived yet! Calculate the time, if it usually arrived two days ago! Even if it was affected by the heavy rain, it should have arrived today!

Why is there no movement outside the city at all, no, I'd better go out and have a look, I'm afraid the soldiers guarding the south gate are dozing off and don't know what to report. "

After Gao Shun finished speaking, he moved his body and wanted to go out the door.When passing by Wen Han, Wen Han suddenly grabbed his hand, and Wen Han waved to him.

"There are hundreds of soldiers guarding the south gate, or as you guessed, dozens of them are sleepy and dozing off. But it will never happen. It is outrageous that hundreds of people are dozing off. Gao Shunru and I know I know who Ding Shishi will send to lead this rescue army. He has something wrong with me, and General Gao Shun must also be aware of it. After waiting for a few days, I probably thought of his intentions, so I didn't put much hope in him .”

"Wen Sima, you are making a rash judgment. Although Feng Xian is arrogant and cannot allow others to be better than him, he still understands what kind of blood is flowing in his bones. He will not deliberately slow down and kill us. It is not right to do this. Act of righteousness."

The pupils of Gao Shun's eyes dilated instantly, like a cat whose tail was stepped on by someone, its fur was straightening, and it was almost yelling at Wen Han.

"General Gao, I didn't mention my name. How do you know who I'm talking about? Eh. That's all. Just treat it as my mistake. However, you know that if Ding Shishi's rescue is really delayed. Wait. When the heavy rain stops, it will be the day when Linhe City will be destroyed, you understand this."

"Of course Gao understands, otherwise how could Gao be so anxious."

"Okay. Then we can't just sit here and wait for Governor Ding's rescue to arrive. I have a plan to make all the Qiang Hu people die in Linhe City."

Wen Han suddenly smiled and said with confidence.Gao Shun and Guan Yu and Xu Huang, who were drinking tea while listening, all three eyes became bright at the same time, and they looked at Wen Han in unison.

"Wen Sima has another clever plan? Then tell me quickly!"

"Yeah. I've been looking at this map of Linhe for a long time. Look, the river next to Linhe City winds and bends, and returns from the northern mountain tops, connecting with the southern side. Surrounding the entire Linhe County, if we are here This embankment blocked the flow of water. At this time, it rained heavily for five or six days, and the water level was probably not low. When the water level rose to three feet, the Qianghu people were led into the city. Then the water was released to flood the city, and when the flood came rushing, the Qianghu Even if a person does not die, he will lose several layers of skin!

At that time, we will place soldiers and horses here again.When the flood rushed these Qiang and Hu people over, I thought they had lost all their combat effectiveness, and let our Han soldiers slaughter them. "

"Wonderful! Wen Sima really has an extraordinary strategy!"

When Gao Shun heard it, he immediately applauded.But suddenly he murmured in doubt.

"However, it is easy to block the water, but it is troublesome to lure the Qianghu people into the city. I wonder what Wen Sima can do?"

Gao Shun looked at Wen Han, Wen Han smiled, but turned to look at Xu Huang and Guan Yu.Xu Huang and Guan Yu were also thinking, Xu Huang suddenly stood up and walked slowly.

"It has been raining heavily for five or six days. We have roof tiles to shelter from the rain in Linhe City, and we feel uncomfortable. The Qianghu people only have tents to shelter from the rain, and they must have endured it for a long time. Many soldiers in the army must have been infected. It was windy and cold, and I was looking for a place to shelter from the rain.

If so, it would make sense for us to pretend to take advantage of the heavy rain to withdraw our troops at this time.The Qiang and Hu people are now impatient to avoid the rain, and seeing that we are withdrawing our troops, there is at least a [-]% chance that we will overtake the Linhe River, which can be said to be a trap for ourselves. "

Wen Han nodded, clapped his palms, and gave Xu Huang applause.Gao Shun and Guan Yu immediately applauded him.Xu Huang scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

Wen Han knew it in his heart, but he was just giving Xu Huang, Guan Yu and others a chance to think about the problem, otherwise they would rely on themselves every time they encountered a problem, and this would form a bad habit.If Wen Han's power grows in the future, Guan Yu and Xu Huang will both be generals who will lead one side, and they will need to use their own brains to think about problems in many places.

"Okay. The plan has been decided, so let's arrange it quickly. We must successfully block the dam before the heavy rain stops, and then use the rain to bring the Qianghu people in."

"Yes, we take orders!"

Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Gao Shun clasped their fists at the same time to accept the order, and they left the county magistrate's mansion together.And Wen Han sat down quietly, still looking at the map, tapped his fingers on the table, lost in thought.

Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Gao Shun found nearly 300 people, all dressed in straw clothes, straw sandals, and straw hats, and went up the mountain in the heavy rain to find the location of the embankment.The location of the dam is not steep, and it can be reached by walking through two flat slopes.

It was just that the heavy rain and strong wind were really severe. Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Gao Shun led 300 people to walk for a long time. Branches and gravel flew from time to time, causing many people to suffer minor injuries.

After half an hour, everyone finally came to the promotion.Looking at it at a glance, the water level is extremely high, at least two feet deep, and the water flow is extremely fast, and the sound of hitting the rocks on the shore is terrifying.If someone accidentally falls into it at this time, it will definitely be a dead end.

After discussing for a while, Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Gao Shun began to divide the work. Gao Shun led 100 people to release the sluice gate, while Guan Yu and Xu Huang led 200 people to pick up some big stones on the bank and build the sluice gate. A half-meter-high stone fence was erected to prevent the water level from rising too fast and seeping out.

At this time, on the other side.On the mountain range to the south of Linhe City, there is a small village.There are about [-] to [-] households in it, and the villagers usually make a living by hunting animals and mining some quarry in the mountains to sell money.

A day ago, a large group of Han soldiers arrived and broke the tranquility of the village.There are about 2 soldiers and horses in this group of Han soldiers, most of whom are spearmen and sword soldiers. There are about 3000 soldiers, and there are [-] cavalry.The leader is about one foot tall, and his whole body is powerful, as if he has ten thousand catties of strength, and his eyes are fierce.As soon as he arrived, he said that there would be wars around, and he ordered his soldiers to drive the villagers down the mountain and occupy the villagers' houses to avoid the rain.Later, because there were too many people under his command to squeeze in, he had no choice but to set up a tent to shelter a group of people from the rain.

The soldiers and horses of the Han army were the reinforcements sent by Ding Yuan, and the leaders were Lv Bu and Lv Fengxian.At this time, Lu Bu was living in the largest house in the village.

Zhang Liao came to Lu Bu's door with a serious face, and heard a woman crying and screaming and a man's obscene laughter coming from inside the door.Thinking of the two women that Lu Bu forcibly left among the villagers the day before yesterday, he couldn't help but clenched his fists tightly, wanting to kick open the door in front of him, enter the house and scold them.But he was apprehensive, and after waiting for a long time, the woman's cries had subconsciously and slowly stopped.
