The night is over and the day is bright, and there is no dawn for a long time. Not long after, there was a voice that surprised Huang Daochong.
"It's raining, it's raining!"
Autumn floods are coming, and the rainy season must come first. Although this rain came a little earlier, it is a rare and happy event for Xishu.
"The time and place are favorable. Even if the sheepherder is reborn, it is irreversible. I hope he will make a decision early and lead the people back to the highlands."
Huang Daochong stood up, stretched out his hand, and slowly caught the rainwater outside the hut in his palm. According to his plan, in the crisis of autumn floods, the river embankments were not reinforced. The huge dock that had just been dug into the inland river and was being built would become abandoned.
…
"I'm not willing to give in." Xun Pingzi raised his head, looked at the rain falling from the sky, and couldn't stop crying. Qingfeng delayed the time, the rain had arrived, the autumn flood was coming, and he had no chance.
This plan seemed to be tailor-made for him, and he received a solid blow.
"Military advisor, please take care of yourself." Jiang Meng stood aside, his tone equally unwilling. Just one mistake and everything was lost.
"Military advisor, if not we can think of some way to save the dock."
"It's useless. In order to dig out the inland river, the terrain outside the dock is already flat. But the river embankment has not yet been reinforced."
Jiang Meng sighed.
"General Jiang, I am to blame for this trick, but you and I must not harm the people. So we will take the people and soldiers first and retreat to a safer location."
Xun Pingzi closed his eyes in pain, "I immediately wrote a letter to plead guilty. It was all my careless mistakes that led to a catastrophe."
In just one day, the rain became heavier and heavier. The river is also overflowing higher and higher. There was obviously still a round of water storage, but Huang Daochong immediately ordered the gate to be closed.
"Commander Qingfeng, the information is here. On the other side of Kezhou, the sheepherder Xun Pingzi has retreated to the high ground with his people and soldiers. The strategy of the military counselor has been completed!"
Huang Daochong looked satisfied, "Unexpectedly, this sheepherder is still a good person. He did not blindly remedy the situation, but led others to retreat first. The dock has basically been destroyed."
"Strategist, if my lord receives the news, he will definitely be extremely happy. Military Advisor Qingfeng is also a famous counselor in the world."
"I dare not take it." Huang Daochong smiled and shook his head, "You and I are staying in Lingzhou just to maintain the general trend. To say that the real world-famous strategy should be in Dingzhou. What the little strategist of the East has to do is to move the world. The wisdom of the world.”
"What is the little Eastern military advisor going to do?"
Huang Daochong smiled and did not answer. He turned his gaze sideways and looked in the direction of Changyang. Unconsciously, there was a sadness slowly creeping onto his face.
His son Huang Zhizhou knelt in countless shrines throughout Western Shu and was scolded by the Shu people as the biggest traitor in the world. Even he himself had no choice but to cover his face with animal skins and pretend to be Lao Qingfeng.
But one day...
Huang Daochong lowered his head and closed his eyes, a drop of muddy old tears fell on his robe.
…
"What a great joy, what a great joy, my lord!" In the Chengdu palace, the puppy Fu was dancing with excitement. They had just pacified the tiger barbarian tribe. Now, on the Jiangnan front, there is another good news.
The mysterious and unpredictable chief planner of the Western Region seemed to be leading the shepherd by the nose, and took advantage of the autumn floods to destroy the huge dock that Beiyu was building.
In other words, even in the future, Kezhou will not dare to use this method again. We can only practice on the river according to the rules and build ships by the river.
At least, it will delay the training time of the Beiyu Navy Division for at least half a year!
Xu Mu also breathed a sigh of relief and clenched his fists in surprise. As expected, Lao Huang did not disappoint him. An autumn flood broke the courage of the old sheep herder who was grazing on the grassland.
"Ma Yi's side, after the autumn floods slowly subsided, many warships have been sent to pick up the people of Kezhou who want to enter Shu."
"Well done." Xu Mu smiled. In the past half year, thanks to Lao Huang's actions, the situation in Jiangnan has been basically stabilized.
Now, the only thing Xu Mu has to worry about is what kind of method Dongfang's little military advisor will use to get Anzi to take charge of a large army.
According to Ye Xiao's information, the Anzi has been active recently and has gradually gained the appreciation of Beiyu's little military advisor.
Although the process was a bit cruel... But no matter what, Xu Mu firmly believed that Jia Du'e's move was extremely clever.
"Gou Fu, call Si Hu over tonight and have a drink together."
"Master, what should he do if he has to take care of his wife?"
"I almost forgot, forget it, you and I can just have a drink. The good news about Jiangnan is so obvious!"
…
Different from the scene in the Chengdu palace, after receiving Xun Pingzi's apology letter, Chang Sheng, who was exhausted, looked even more haggard.
When the shepherd proposed digging the inland river and building a large dock, he thought of this shortcoming and reminded the shepherd. But unfortunately, Qingfeng from the Western Regions finally succeeded in his plan. In this way, after experiencing Jiang Meng's disastrous defeat in the water battle and the disaster of the dock being flooded to pieces, the morale of the entire Kezhou Navy has dropped to freezing point.
Chang Sheng rubbed his forehead and drank two cups of hot tea before his whole body slowly calmed down. He raised his head and looked at the two people standing next to him.
One is Yan Pi, and the other is the rising star Huang Zhizhou. Of course, in terms of age, I'm afraid he is also a junior.
"Zhizhou, what do you think?"
Huang Zhizhou, who was standing by, was silent for a moment and said, "The green phoenix took advantage of the autumn floods to flood our Beiyu dock. This plan has become a reality. If it is my suggestion, you can choose a lake in Kezhou to practice naval training first."
"Choose a lake to practice?" Chang Sheng hesitated, "It's a good idea. But if you choose a lake to practice, the progress is too slow. Unfortunately, there is no tributary river in the entire Beiyu area that connects Jijiang River and Xiangjiang River. If we dig a river, I'm afraid it won't be completed in ten or eight years, and it will be too late."
"Zhizhou, the sheepherder has written a letter to plead guilty. Should he be punished? Or should we punish Jiang Meng and remove him from the post of General of the Eastern Route." Chang Sheng suddenly raised his head.
Huang Zhizhou hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Commander, there is no need to do this. Changing generals before the battle is a taboo for military strategists. Please consider this carefully, military counselor."
Chang Sheng was silent for a while and nodded, "What you said does make some sense. Let's let these two people deal with their merits first."
"By the way, I heard that your wife is happy?"
When he entered Changyang, Huang Zhizhou became an sworn friend with Che Hu, who was fleeing along the way. He even took the daughter of the Che family.
Huang Zhizhou raised his head, with a smile on his face, "Thank you, military advisor, for your concern. My wife is indeed happy. If she gives birth to a child, I might as well ask the military advisor to give her a name."
"You're... having a good time."
"I, Huang Zhizhou, entered Beiyu as a rebel general. Thank you so much for your training, little military advisor!" Huang Zhizhou knelt down on the ground and kowtowed seriously to Chang Sheng.
