The next day, Oswin and Salman began to use their legions to attack and destroy the mountain wall. Of course, because it was the first time to do this kind of thing, they lacked experience and could not judge the structure clearly. The first time they bombarded the mountain wall, it caused the mountain to collapse. Almost burying the legion.
However, regardless of experience or not, at least this blow confirmed that Kapil's plan was correct and very executable. Ardashir and other onlookers felt excited when they saw it, and victory was just around the corner.
Of course, the Han Dynasty naturally discovered such a big movement. After all, Kapil took into account the suppression of the clouds, the defense of the Han Dynasty, and possible accidents, so he faced in from a position about 500 meters away from the Han army's city wall. attack.
Although attacking inward from the mountain road may take a half-circle, this situation does not put a lot of pressure on Kushan. If they work overtime, it will only take seven or eight days to enter the Han army's fortress from the mountain wall.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect it to be like this!" Oswin was very excited when he looked at the ruins of the mountain after the landslide. Although the collapsed mountain blocked the river and caused some minor problems, this was compared to entering the Han Dynasty. Military fortress is not a problem.
"I also got it by accident. If you hadn't come directly over the mountains, I wouldn't have thought that I could smash the mountain wall directly and enter the Han Dynasty's fortress directly from the mountain wall." Kapil said with a smile, "The next step is actually to blast the cliff. , it is enough to create a road that can enter the Han army's fortress, but as for the quality of the road, it is not too particular."
Kapil's intelligence is very normal when there is no pressure. He knows very well that it is meaningless to pursue these minutiae at this time. Even the backfilling of mountain walls, blocking of river water and causing siltation can be solved later, and even half of them can be cut out. The mountain wall does not need to be leveled. Kushan only needs a road from the mountain wall into the Han Dynasty.
Most of the front can be directly attacked by legions. When the legion attacks at the back cannot break through the cloud suppression of the Han army, the distance is actually very close. At that time, it will just be earthworks. What Guishang wants is not a tunnel or anything. The goal of a permanent road is very simple, just blast off the mountain wall and push out a road.
"Just follow this and get in quickly." Oswin said with a smile, "Urdu, how are your soldiers helping me find horses?"
"My soldiers suggest that you give up those war horses." Urdu sighed and said.
If we don't forcibly climb over the mountain, according to the observation of Urdu's soldiers, the nearest exit of the mountain road that Oswin took is still more than ten miles down, and this is a mountain road. Who knows how many detours are needed for more than ten miles. God, I suggest giving up the war horse.
After all, Beigui is not short of horses, so there is no need to make it so difficult. To be realistic, if these horses are no longer needed, it is more valuable to beat Cao Cao to death quickly.
Oswin's face was turning blue. Don't tell me about the mountain road of more than ten miles. Do you know how far it is from Salman's side? It's less than ten miles, and the distance in a straight line is only this small. Before going around the mountain road, I wanted to go around this much, but it didn't come out for ten days. Now you tell me that the result may be another ten miles down, so Oswin just gave up.
It's better to give up and do something serious, since there isn't much time to waste on this.
Kushan's movements could not be hidden from the Han Dynasty, because they were really close, so they quickly understood Guishan's thinking. To be honest, even the Han Dynasty admired this operation, because normal people do I don't think about walking on the inside of the cliff and then punching through the cliff to enter.
In theory, this is indeed a very correct path.
"Guishang actually has such an ingenious mind." Chen Gong said with some admiration. After all, this move was indeed a bit unexpected.
Even though everyone understood what this set of gameplay was when they saw it, no one had ever thought that it could be done like this before.
"But this method seems to not only not be able to solve the problem, but it will also trap them to death." Mao Jie fell into deep thought. The method is a good method, but the rainy season has entered the upper reaches. After Xun Yu returned the rain clouds, the amount of precipitation Big increase.
The rainfall in the upper reaches of this poor place started in December, and because the Indian Ocean warm current is blocked by the Hindu Kush and Suleiman Mountains, the rainfall is all in the upper reaches. To put it simply, there is no rain here. But the Helmand River is swollen like crazy.
The rainfall in the upper reaches during this period can easily exceed the level of 100 millimeters. In addition, Xun Yu gathers all the rain clouds. Chen Gong, Mao Jie and others estimate that the rainfall in the upper reaches in these days can even reach or even exceed 100 millimeters. One hundred and fifty millimeters level.
Rainfall of this level can cause floods anywhere. According to Chen Gong's estimation, the Helmand River in front of the Han Army Fortress should start to store water starting tonight. Although this change will inevitably Exposed, according to their estimated rainfall, it can be accumulated in five or six days, and Kuishang will not have time to adjust it.
"Yes, originally this small amount of river water could not form a barrier lake in a short period of time, but now..." Chen Gong's eyes twitched. When the rainfall in the upper reaches increased sharply, the river water increased significantly, and the Han army might form a dam in front of the fortress. Water, the mountain wall blasted by Kushan behind built up a barrier lake or something, no problem.
"No, it won't happen." Xun You suddenly appeared and rejected Chen Gong's speculation.
"Huh? No way?" Chen Gong looked at Xun You in confusion. After the Helmand River rose, judging from the current situation, this kind of thing is almost inevitable.
"Salman is doing the same thing, and his level is even worse." Xun You said with twitching eyes. Guys who didn't understand the structure of the mountain were blasting randomly, causing the mountain to collapse and forming a mountain ruin in front of the Han army's fortress. .
Chen Gong was stunned, this was the rhythm of forming three dams!
"Our fortress can definitely block it. My uncle took floods into consideration during the construction process. Their two barrier lakes caused by mountain collapse will definitely not be able to withstand it." Xun You sighed and Chen Gong's eyes twitched. .
"Is it true that none of them understand the weather?" Mao Jie said with a twitching corner of his mouth.
You must know that the Han army's plan to store water in the front of the fortress is essentially just to force Kuishang to get out. The possibility of flooding Beigui is unlikely. This is a guaranteed plan. But Kuishang has accomplished this, and Mao Ji has already Don't know what to say.
"Probably I really don't know." Chen Gong was silent for a while. Someone who knows the world would not do this, and he would not do this as long as he is still a human being.
After Salman struggled for a day upstream, he successfully collapsed a mountain. Of course, the river was blocked due to the collapsed mountain, but Salman didn't care about this at all. When the next day, Salman The taxi soldier informed Salman that yes, their front camp was flooded.
"What?" Salman looked at the soldiers who came to inform him in confusion. What do you mean that his front camp was flooded? What kind of operation is this? It's wrong. There has been no rainfall recently. Why is it flooded?
After the explanation, Salman realized that the Helmand River was blocked and the water overflowed, affecting his front camp.
Salman did not have any thoughts about this, so he moved camp and continued to bomb the mountain wall. The next day, soldiers came to inform him that his camp was flooded, and it was much worse than yesterday. Moreover, due to the siltation of the river, At this time, it has become difficult to continue construction upstream, because the gentle slope of the previously blasted mountain wall has been partially flooded.
"Where did so much water come from?" Salman felt very troubled by this, but after the soldiers reminded him, Salman understood that it was because his house blocked the river channel, so he used the legion attack to blast the river channel, and the river water successfully It poured out and the work continued, but Salman vaguely had some unpleasant feelings.
The river water began to accumulate rapidly under the Han army's fortress. In just three days, it accumulated to the height of half the city wall. Chen Gong and Mao Jie were both a little panicked. Xun Yu, this madman, how much rain did you have? Didn't you agree? Ten days? I don't think it even takes half the time.
"The problem now is huge. This amount of rainfall is a bit excessive. Even if there is a way to discharge the flood, the front city wall is estimated to be covered by floods on the seventh day at most. We must notify Kushan, otherwise this flood is very likely Submerge us too." Chen Gong said with a dark face, how could there be such an outrageous amount of precipitation?
Relatively speaking, the situation of the Han Dynasty was better, because the Han Dynasty had been prepared for the flood early in the morning, but due to the barrier lake that Salman had built in front, even after blasting several times, the problem was still not completely solved, and the Han army also had May be affected by flooding.
We will definitely win when the time comes, because the people in Oswin will be the worst off, but the situation of the Han army will not be too good. There is a high probability that the flood will not be released in the way that Chen Gong and others estimate by opening a single hole in the city gate to release the flood. Go out, but cover it more directly from the top of the city.
Based on the fact that the walls of the Han Dynasty fortress are high in front and low in the back, as long as there is no large flood peak during the covered period, the Han Dynasty can actually withstand it, but Oswin and others who have formed a barrier lake downstream will definitely be directly affected by the flood. Covered the past.
But now Chen Gong doesn't dare to gamble. He really doesn't know what that idiot Salman on the other side can do. When the flood floods over the city of Han Dynasty, the other side will blast the barrier lake again. The Han army will definitely be destroyed if it is not finished. The only one who was trapped was Oswin, who was further downstream. There was no way to save him. After all, Salman obviously didn't know what was going on!
When the Han army sent the battle report to Oswin on the fifth day, Kapil was blasting the mountain wall. According to this efficiency, their plan would be successful within two days at most.
