Rumble...
A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, and then there was a thunderous roar!
It's thundering!
Immediately afterwards, raindrops poured down from the sky!
Just after Wanyan Xiebao said "It's going to rain heavily", the words were still ringing in his ears, and the heavy rain was already pouring down!
Now this is Wanyan Zonghan, a master who doesn't believe in evil. His son's expression is a bit strange... Can you kid know how to pinch?
And when he looked at his son, Wanyan Xiabao seemed to be counting on his fingers - really counting?
"Dad," Xie Bao didn't notice the strange look in his father's eyes, and was still talking about the results he had just calculated, "we also asked Tu Hesu to dig out the ten thousand year new embankment... Tu Hesu is the one doing the work. He has always been too energetic, but not careful enough. The boy is worried that he has dug too much. What if the Yellow River swells due to this heavy rain and overflows directly from the new dike that has been built for thousands of years..."
"Stop talking!" Wanyan Zonghan was so frightened that his face turned green!
He now knows that his son has a crow's mouth...good things may not always be accurate, but bad things coming out of his mouth will most likely come true!
Look, just when it said it was going to rain, it started raining!
Now it is said that the Yellow River is about to burst... You haven't returned to Jingdong Road yet. Now that you have cursed the Yellow River to burst, what will you do?
When the time comes, Huang Fan District blocks you in front, how can you run back? This time it's not that I'm waiting for Yin Shuke, but that he's going to see Yin Shuke!
"No more, no more..." Wanyan Xiabao asked, "Dad, why don't you wait for Yin Shu?"
"Wait a minute, he's probably already..." Wanyan Zonghan glared at his son, "You tell me the next thing! How is Yin Shu doing now?"
Wanyan Xiebao thought for a while and sighed: "He has probably died for the country!"
Then he is dead... Wanyan Zonghan said in his heart: Even if he is not dead now, he will be said to be dead by you crow's mouth!
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go back..."
"Where to go back?" Wanyan Xiabao asked.
"Withdraw your troops and go back to Jingdong..." Wanyan Zonghan sighed, "Damn it, Zhao Kai has finally become a formidable enemy!"
Wanyan Xiebao saw that his father was a little depressed, so he comforted him and said: "Dad, if we can have land in Jingdong and Hebei, we can conquer Zhao Huan in the south and stalemate with Zhao Kai in the west. Not only can we secure the Three parts of the world, and even taking advantage of the contradiction between the two Zhaos to continue to grow... The one who will unify the world in the future must be our government!"
"I hope so..." As he spoke, Wanyan Zonghan galloped on his horse, descended from the hill, and headed towards his camp to arrange for the withdrawal of troops!
...
"Officials, the soldiers have suffered a lot of casualties and are exhausted. They are no longer able to fight anymore and can't walk... It's better to let everyone rest for a day before making plans!"
"No! This heavy rain is coming fiercely, and the terrain where we set up camp is low. What should we do if a flash flood breaks out? We have to move the camp to a higher place immediately!"
"How to move...there are so many rice and vehicles!"
"How to move what? They are all living food. Are they just soaked in water like this? No matter how tired you are, you have to move them to a higher place and cover them with tarpaulin and thatch... Our confrontation with the gold thieves is still going on. I don’t know how long it will last!”
When heavy rain fell, Zhao Kai had just arrived at the camp on the edge of the Funiu Mountains. This camp was originally built by Qu Duan, with Funiu Mountain as its back and facing the "Henan Section of the Great Wall". The terrain is quite difficult, but it is a bit low and prone to flooding.
So just after settling down, the generals below started to argue about moving camps and transporting food and grass. Most of the generals wanted the troops to have a good rest...but Yue Fei insisted on moving the camp first and resting later. It was also proposed that the remaining unburned rice grains should be moved to higher places and covered with hay to avoid moisture.
Although Zhao Kai was very sleepy and wanted to take a nap, he still managed to gather his energy and prepared to support Yue Fei's opinion - that's Yue Fei! Can Zhao Kai not listen to Yue Fei?
But before Zhao Kai could announce his decision to the generals, he saw Dong Jingang coming in from the outside, all wet. Zhao Kai had previously asked him to take charge of the left wing of the "Henan Section of the Great Wall" with Qu Duan, so he did not participate in last night's fierce battle and was considered a new force. Now he is asked to lead his troops to guard in the rain to prevent gold thieves from sneak attacks in the rain.
"King Kong, what happened?" Zhao Kai suddenly became a little nervous when he saw Dong Jingang - but don't worry, the gold thief is calling again!
"Officials," Dong Jingang crossed his hands and saluted, and reported at the same time, "The gold thief has withdrawn!"
"Withdraw?" Zhao Kai was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't believe it, "Really?"
"Really! The band of gold thieves are leaving their camp and retreating along the western foot of Jishan Mountain." Dong Jingang nodded vigorously, "Guan family, we won again!"
Won again... The probability of winning is 100%!
Zhao Kai let out a long breath and finally showed a hint of relief... Although he had a 100% chance of winning against Jin Bing, the victory was not easy at all, nor was the victory big. And if you lose once, you will most likely die!
"Now that the gold thief has retreated, let's..." Zhao Kai glanced at Yue Fei and saw that he frowned slightly, and said, "Let's work harder and move the camp and rice to a higher place. Then the whole army will rest for three days!"
"Brother!" Yue Fei interrupted again at this time.
"What?" Zhao Kai asked, "Do you want to send troops to pursue us?"
"No," Yue Fei said, "I learned that Brother Han... if the main force of the gold thieves returns to Dengfeng and Mi County, he will no longer be able to lead his troops to storm the Jin soldiers' camp."
"Yes, yes, I am informed that I will be a good minister." Zhao Kai also frowned slightly, "I don't know when Dengfeng and Mi County will be able to recover?"
Zhao Kai felt very uncomfortable when Jin soldiers were inserted in Dengfeng - because Dengfeng was too close to the Ruzhou grain road!
In order to ensure the safety of the grain road, Zhao Kai had to use a large army to protect the grain, and every time he transported grain, he had to risk being robbed by the Jin soldiers... For example, this time, although he repelled the Jin soldiers, he also Silver Technique is dead, but the loss is not small!
The casualties of the troops have not yet been calculated, but they must be many, maybe 8,000 if not 10,000!
Moreover, the food transported suffered heavy losses. In the end, I wonder if half of it was delivered? Will the delivered food become damp and moldy?
"Brother," Yue Fei said thoughtfully, "I have a plan to drive away the gold thief in Dengfeng."
"Speak quickly!" Zhao Kai looked at Yue Fei.
Yue Fei said: "Now the main force of the gold thieves on the southern front is concentrated in Dengfeng and Mi County. The areas of Chenliu, Huazhou and Liyang must be empty. Why not order Brother Han and Huang Silang to take advantage of the rising water of the Yellow River to attack the waterways? Build the Sanshan Floating Bridge and the Ten Thousand Years New Embankment!”
The Wannian Xindi is almost a worry of the Song Dynasty!
Without the ten thousand-year-old new embankment, not only is the safety of Kaifeng Prefecture out of the question, but Chenzhou and Yingzhou to the south of Kaifeng Prefecture may also be flooded at any time!
If the Song army wanted to recapture the Wannian Xindi, they could not take advantage of the freezing conditions of the Yellow River in winter. We can only take advantage of the rising water in summer to take the risk of driving Li Bao's navy into the Yellow River, and then move forward by waterway, forcing them to the ten thousand year new dike.
"Okay! Just as Pengju said!" Zhao Kai smiled and said, "We can also ask Zong Liu to send troops together. The bigger the momentum, the better! Even if we can't recapture Wannian Xindi, we should be able to force Zong Han's main force Return support.”
.......
Zhao Kai had a good idea. Han Shizhong, Zongze, and Li Bao sent out troops together, with the posture of overwhelming the army, which scared even the gold thief! Even if Wannian Xindi cannot be captured, Wanyan Zonghan must be forced to return his troops.
However, Wanyan Tuheshu, who was stationed at Wannian Xindi, and Wanyan Loushi, Han Qixian (who was also a member of the Han family in Yutian) and others who were stationed at Chenliu, did not know Zhao Kai's plan.
Moreover, when Han Shizhong, Wang De (sent by Zongze), Li Bao and others met on the banks of the Yellow River in Yangwu and Suanzao areas, the news that Wanyan Zonghan had evacuated from Dengfeng and Mi County had also been reported by the original stationed Chen The remaining Wanyan Loushi was brought to the endangered Wannian Xindi!
Oh, the precarious situation of Wannian Xindi was not caused by the approaching armies of Han Shizhong, Wang De and Li Bao - because of the heavy rains for days and the turbulent water of the Yellow River, the armies of Han Shizhong, Wang De and Li Bao had to stop at the north of the Yellow River. Ji County. The danger of the Wannian New Embankment turned out to be the sequelae caused by Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Tuhesu who sent people to dig twice!
The time Wanyan Zongwang had people dig was last summer... Last year, the water in the Yellow River was shallow, so Zongwang had people dig quite deep, and then he had people seal it up carelessly. However, it is not sealed tightly and cannot be compared with the original dam at all.
After Tuhesu took over the dam, they started digging again...but instead of digging where Wanyan Zongwang had dug, they dug somewhere farther west! Why change? He picked it at random, for no reason!
After choosing a place, Tuhesu sent his men to Anli Army and Weizhou to capture a group of civil servants, and then supervised the work day and night. The gap was almost dug to the surface of the water before he remembered to call a halt. Then seeing the water in the Yellow River rising, the people were asked to return some filling soil.
And those civil servants who were tortured by the gold thieves to the point of death, how can they still have the energy to fill the soil for you? It was just filled in carelessly.
And Tu Hesu didn't understand either, so he almost ignored it. It wasn't until Lou Shi and Han Qixian, who were originally stationed in Chen Liu, came to hear the news that Zong Han had withdrawn their troops and led Chen Liu's troops north to Wannian Xindi in the rain that they realized something was wrong!
The dam is going to collapse!
"The dam collapsed? How is it possible?" Tu Hesu, who had a face of a Chinese prince and sharp features, and looked shrewd and capable, still didn't believe it, "Han Dacao (Han Qixian was the Jingdong Road transfer envoy of the Jin Kingdom), what are you talking about? What happened to the dam? Could it collapse? I personally watched the servants filling in the soil! It’s still solid!”
Yes, the soil has filled the gap, how could it collapse? Even if it does collapse, it is because the quality of the dam was not good, and it has nothing to do with me!
"Then I don't know." Han Qixian, a white-faced old scholar with a big face and a wet face who had just come down from the dam, squinted his small eyes and considered for a moment, "The official found two dangers... If If it is not reinforced, the dam will collapse within ten days! Now that Deputy Marshal Zuo has not returned, if the Yellow River overflows, it will be a retreat for him and the 100,000-strong army!"
