Chapter 111, Flooded Army

After discussing with Yu for a while, Zhang Yu finally decided not to kill Wei Tuong and wanted to catch him, thus threatening several of his brothers. As long as the vanguard troops of their four brothers were subdued, the vigor of the Xianbei army would inevitably suffer a serious setback, so it would not be a problem to swallow Xianbei in the end.

On a starry night, Zhang Yu brought the army to bring the river head. They had already blocked the river and took more than ten days to finally cut off the river. However, after all, it is not a modern project, and in order to ensure the convenience when releasing water, they mostly use huge wood, each wood All of them are tied with ropes.

At the edge of the dam, Zhang Yu ordered the soldiers to tie the rope from the wood to the horse, and then drive away dozens of horses at the same time. Only the sound of wood rolling sounded, followed by the loud sound of the flood. Seeing the flood, Zhang Yu immediately withdrew there with his army, and then took the wooden boat they had already prepared to go to the battlefield. They were not good at water warfare, so they just chose to surround Wei Tuling and let him surrender.

However, a large part of the army has received Zu Zhao's water training, which was specially trained by a powerful general on the water army specially invited by Zu Zhao from the south and rescued most of the troops who attacked tonight. In fact, they were more or less able to fight on the surface of the water, and the Xianbei army was not good at fighting on the water, and they were submerged by the flood and there were no warships. This battle was almost defeated. However, Zhang Yu still didn't dare to be careless and ordered the army to be on standby at all times, which was equivalent to issuing an order there and surrounding it.

Let's say that the Xianbei army was sleeping peacefully, and suddenly heard a earth-shaking sound. When the guards heard the sound, they didn't know what it was made, like the sound of water, but they didn't know that the weather was also Qinglang in the middle of the night. How could there be such a sound of water, so they hurriedly reported He sued Wei Tuling's personal guard. The guard entered Wei Tuling's camp. Just as he was about to report, Wei Tuling also woke up and stood up directly to ask what was going on.

The bodyguard reported that no one knew what the sound was. It sounded like the sound of running water from the waterfall, but he didn't know why it was so loud. He was about to report the situation. Wei Tuling listened and went out to check, which made people light the torch, but the irradiation range of the torch was not so far. How could he see the situation there?

Wei Tuling also vaguely felt a little bad in his heart. What's wrong with this sudden sound of water? If it's the sound of water, it's okay. After all, although it's low here, it may not be flooded, because there is still enough space for the flowing water to slip out. So he immediately sent an army to see what was going on.

A pair of soldiers got the order, immediately lit the torch, got on the mount, and quickly whipped away. After a while, there were bursts of water under his feet. After a closer look, it turned out that the horse's hoof had almost half of its legs in the water, and the sound in front of it was still rumbling. The soldiers were terrified. They also came here to patrol during the day. There was no water here. How could there suddenly be so much water at this time?

was hesitating. Suddenly, a snow-white face came in front of me, and I heard the sound of rolling. When the front soldier saw this driver, he knew that there was a flood rolling over it. According to such a respectful posture, he would definitely destroy their barracks. Apart from the food and fodder they brought and the weapons that those soldiers could not afford to pick up, they would definitely be swallowed up by this big water. The most terrible thing is that such a big water is enough In order to annihilated their entire army.

"No, the enemy must have attacked with water. Go back quickly to report to the general and let everyone retreat." A soldier said, but when he finished speaking, he didn't have time to turn the horse's head. A huge wave slapped up, and he had submerged his horse in the water. Several other soldiers who were too late were also swallowed up by the water. None of them knew water. When they swallowed it, they were immediately filled with water. Finally, they lay on the horse's back and floated up with the mount, but all of them were injured and their faces were full of scars. They didn't swim and could only be washed away with the horse. The timid man was rushed down directly from the horse's back and heard a sad cry and disappeared into the dark water.

The rest of the soldiers saw that several people had been swallowed up by the water and stayed here for a moment. They immediately turned their horse's head and flew directly back to the base camp. On the way, there were timid people. Looking back and saw the water following them, they were directly scared that their whole body was weak. Finally, they fell off the horse's back and fell into the flood and disappeared. Shadow.

Several soldiers who escaped from nowhere returned to the camp wet and hurriedly reported to Wei Tuling: "Try to the general that the mountain is rolling in and is about to flood our barracks. Please order the general to leave quickly."

Although Wei Tuling's heart was shocked, he did not show panic, but said calmly, "What's the panic? It's dry. How can there be so much water? Did you misread it?"

The soldier kowtowed and said, "How dare you deceive the general? It's really a flood. Many of our brothers have been swallowed up by the flood. If we don't leave quickly, the barracks will soon be flooded. The place where we are now is a little higher, so there is not much reaction. I guess other low-lying places are full of floods, and it's a little dangerous to leave now.

Wei Tuling scolded: "Don't be alarmist and shake the heart of our army. Even if the big water really comes, it will naturally flow out. We are high, what are we afraid of? Don't panic and wait for it to change. A counselor next to him said, "General, it's really unusual for the flood to come. Could it be that the Han army opened the gate 4 in the upper reaches? It has been nearly half a month since they arrived here. If they block the flood on it and now there is water to flood us, the consequences can't be underestimated."

Wei Tuling said, "Why are you also so panicked? The so-called soldiers come to cover the water. If there is a place where the water comes, there will naturally be a place to go. The canyon in front of you is so big, and no matter how big the water from it is, it is impossible to rush here."

As he spoke, suddenly a soldier came to report that the water level had been going up and had now flooded at the gate. Wei Tuling was shocked when he heard this. The terrain here is relatively high, and the entrance of the canyon below is much lower than here. It is really difficult to understand that the water will spread up like this. He took the generals to the gate and saw that the front door had been flooded, and the water at the door had reached more than half a person's height.

Wei Tuling panicked and said, "How could this happen? Who can tell me how this happened? Why did the water come here? What the hell is going on?

"General, don't panic. We are leaving quickly and retreating from the road. Now the water level is not very deep. You can go back directly on horseback. This must be the enemy's trick. If we wait for them to surround us, we really have no way to go." The counselor said beside Wei Tuling.

Wei Tuling has no idea now. Naturally, he can only listen to the counselor and immediately order the soldiers to get on the horse. The infantry without mounts followed the cavalry hand in hand, and everyone slowly withdrew. Everyone was ordered, and the cavalry got on the horse quickly, but the infantry were a little panicked. Some of them pulled the cavalry down directly in order to survive and tried to go up by themselves. As soon as this head opened, the whole army was in a mess.

Wei Tuling looked in his eyes and was angry. In the past, his army was still well trained. During the day, he even saw them full of confidence when he took the enemy's ten villages. How come at this time, before the critical moment of life and death, they had begun to make a big mess.

"All stop, follow my orders, and kill those who violate the order." Wei Tuling said loudly. When the soldiers heard his scolding, they stopped fighting and stood quietly, while the cavalry breathed a sigh of relief and finally did not have to be pulled down. At this time, a cavalryman at the door saw that the water level had been rising, but Wei Tuling had not ordered to leave. He panicked and directly patted his horse on the back and went out of the door, stirring waves of water. His move made all the cavalry ready to move, and the infantry wanted to do it when they saw that the cavalry was about to leave.

Wei Tuling couldn't help but get angry. He took the bow and arrow from the archer's hand and arrow at the first to escape the cavalry. He only heard a string sound. The arrow went like a meteor and arched like the autumn moon. The cavalry was shot by an arrow and fell off his horse and fell into the water and disappeared. And the mount was frightened, and it also hissed and fled.

Wei Tuling held the bow in his hand, pulled out an arrow, and shouted, "Who dares not to listen to the military order and kill without mercy. At my order, the cavalry got on the horse and walked slowly towards the downstream side. The infantry all held hands and walked slowly in the upstream direction. If anyone dares to mess around, don't blame me for the ruthless bow and arrow in my hand.

The soldiers saw that Wei Tuling said so resolutely and did so decisively that they no longer dared to mess around. They obediently obeyed his command. The cavalry rode down, while the infantry walked up hand in hand and slowly retreated to the high ground outside together. Under such a lineup, there was really no one to be injured. Even if someone's feet were unstable, they were eventually rescued by the crowd, or someone fell and was washed away by water, and protected by cavalry, there were no casualties.

Seeing that he was about to exit the concave land and go up to a place that was not flooded by water, suddenly there were torches in all directions. In front of them stood two generals, it was Zhang Yu and Yu Ban. Some of the soldiers around them were responsible for lighting the torches, and some took arrows to pull bows and arrows at them.

"General Wei Tuling, we finally met. How are you?" Yu Forbidden asked loudly.

"Who are you?" Wei Tuling asked fiercely.

"I am the vanguard general Yu Ban, and I have been waiting for you here for a long time. Will you surrender?" Yu Forbidden asked.

Wei Tuling shouted and said, "You framed me with such a despicable and shameless means. What a general. I think you will use such a conspiracy. There is no real ability. If you have the ability, you can fight with me. If you can defeat me, I will surrender, otherwise I will die and I will not surrender. "

Yu Forbidden laughed and said, "You have been trapped here by me now. Haven't you failed? Do you want to fight again? Excuse me, what are you going to fight with me?"

Wei Tuling said unconvincedly, "Isn't it my ability to take down your ten villages in a day? If you hadn't used this trick, I would have taken all your remaining three villages tomorrow and forced you back to the Han Dynasty. I will lead the army to kill your Han Dynasty and destroy you.

Yu Forbidden laughed for a while, and then said coldly, "You are already a prisoner, and you dare to talk so much. If you take me ten villages, it's better for me to take you once." Now our soldiers have aimed at all your troops. As long as I give an order, the arrows are like rain, and you can't retreat. In the end, you will all die here. You vanguard general, but you will kill all your 5,000 soldiers here so easily. I will give you a quarter of an hour to think about it. If you don't have an answer at that time. I, then I will order you to be shot. If you want to break up, you can also try it. After saying that, Yu Yu pushed down behind with Zhang Pre and asked the soldiers to surround all the exits.

After retreating to the back, Zhang pre-questioned Yu Ban, "Wen Ze, will Wei Tu Ling really surrender?"

Yu Ban shook his head and said, "I heard that this guy is the kind of person who does not accept defeat. Naturally, he will not surrender like this. He will definitely prevent the soldiers from breaking out, but do you think he can break out?"

Zhang Pre shook his head and said, "They have no ability to resist in the water at all, and the water behind them is also full of our troops. They can't advance or retreat. How can they break out?" But since he is the kind of person who does not give up, will he surrender in the end?

Yu said, "I don't know this either. However, if he really doesn't surrender, then he can catch him alive. If he can't catch him alive, he can only kill him. There are generals in the art of war. If you attack people and cities, you can kill people in the first city, leave people in the second city, or kill people in the second city. Of course, you can also keep people in the first city and people in the second city. This depends on the specific situation. The reason why you want to do this is nothing more than to deter other armies.

"I bet he will not surrender. He will fight to the death." Zhang Pre said.

Yu Forbidden laughed and said, "Well, I'll bet with you once. Let's bet on a can of Xinluo apples specially made by the Lord. I bet that he will surrender in the end. Is that feasible?"

Zhang Yu smiled and said, "Is the bet so big? Well, I bet that he will try his best to break through and won't surrender. You can get ready to buy me a can of canned apples. That used to be something that only princes and nobles could afford.

The two were really talking, and suddenly a soldier came to report that Wei Tuling had ordered the soldiers to divide into three parts and break through to three sides. Yu Forbidden was stunned and asked, "Then which side did their vanguard general Tu Ling choose to break through?"

The soldiers answered that they didn't know. After a period of chaos, Wei Tuling disappeared. Now they have broke through from the southeast and west, and the team in front of them is extremely strong. It seems that Wei Tuling is in this team.

Yu Yu shook his head and said, "It's not necessarily so. That guy can choose to break through on three sides at this time. It seems that he still has a little brain. And he will face the main breakout target on our side, so he is likely to go downstream or in the opposite direction.

Zhang got up with a gun and asked, "Then where will he go?"

Yu Forbidden said, "If I guess correctly, he should break out in the opposite direction of us. Think about it, we all signed up with Ji, so he naturally knows that it is more hopeless to fight directly with the Lord, so he breaks through in the opposite direction. He is familiar with the terrain of this generation, and it is easy to cross our pursuit and return, and naturally we will not waste energy to track him down. In this way, he can take advantage of the terrain to return to their army before us.

"So, I will immediately get on the boat and intercept him in front?" Zhang Yu said.

Yu Forbidden nodded and said, "Go, but be careful. This lieutenant Tu Ling is very brave. Although he is now in the water, the water is not strong, which can only restrict them and reduce their combat ability, and not let them completely lose their ability to fight."

Zhang Yu agreed and left with a gun. After a few steps, he turned around and asked, "If I capture him alive, is it a surrender or not?"

Yu laughed and said, "If you can catch him alive, even if you win, I will definitely buy you a can of canned apples when I go back."

Zhang Yu laughed for a burst of laughter, took people and horses, jumped on a small wooden boat, and quickly rowed to the opposite side in the direction of the upstream. Wei Tuling has no boat and can only rely on horses, but there is no good horse that can walk flat in the water, so it is naturally impossible for Wei Tuling to exceed Zhang Pre.

After Zhang Yu left, Yujin also came to the front of the army. He saw that part of Wei Tuling's military force really formed a formation and wanted to slowly lean towards the shore. At the same time, he shot with the Han army from time to time. Due to lack of defense, many people in his army on the shore were really injured.

Yu Forbidden saw the formation of the Xianbei army, and he also admired it. Their round array is very suitable for breaking through. It is indeed a good formation with both attack and defense. It seems that there is also some research on the army fighting in Tuling's mind, that is, he took ten villages for him in a row and is a little careless. The big mistake is that he divided his troops and stationed on this low-lying terrain, which is just intermediate. Otherwise, it will take some energy to defeat him.

Seeing that Xianbei's troops had slowly approached, Zu Zhao asked the soldiers to attack and persuade them to surrender. As their casualties increased further, the formation began to waver. Yu Ban also let the soldiers start to stop attacking, saying that as long as they did not resist, they would land smoothly, but they needed to lose their weapons to ensure that they would not hurt. One of them.

After hearing this, the Xianbei breakout army began to fight ideologically. They also knew that it was very difficult to break through in this way. Even if they went ashore, they could not defeat the Han army. However, if they really lost their weapons, if they broke their promise, they would have no room to fight back and could only wait to die.

Yu said, "I promise you that as long as you put down your weapons and surrender, I won't hurt you a little."

Hearing this, Xianbei soldiers completely gave up resistance in their hearts, threw away their hands, and stood quietly in the water and looked at the forbidden troops. Sure enough, Yu Forbidden did not let the soldiers, but let them go ashore. Seeing this, all the people gave up resistance and threw down their weapons to climb ashore. Yu Forbidden really didn't shoot them and let them burn their own fire to keep warm, but of course, there are soldiers guarding them around. If they try to mess up, then they have no mercy.
