    The rain keeps falling.

    It just changed from the heavy rain at the beginning to the drizzle of moderate rain.  Such continuous rain is the real plum rain.  Because of this rain, the temperature has dropped a lot and the air has become fresher.

    On the official road leading to Guangling County, an army was rushing in the rain.

    This army is clearly the army of Chen State.

    The man who led the troops was named He Zheng, and he was a talented general in Chen Guojun.  He Zheng is nearly forty years old. At the end of last year, he broke through his own shackles and entered the Grandmaster realm.

    Since then, He Zheng also jumped over the dragon gate and became an important military commander under Yuan Wei.  Because of He Zheng's strong martial arts skills, he was able to lead an army alone.  After all, in the military, personal strength is a very important part.

    He Zheng and his people were on their way in the rain.

    "Hurry up, we must arrive at Guangling County early. Once we delay and Guangling County falls, our trip will be in vain. Therefore, we cannot waste time."

    He Zheng gave orders as he walked.

    Under He Zheng¡¯s order, the army also hurried on quickly.  Even though it rained continuously and the roads on the ground were muddy, and the soldiers stepped one foot deep and one foot shallow when they were on their way, there was no time wasted.

    The army hurried on, marching in the rain.

    When He Zheng's army was getting closer and closer to Qingwa Valley, Xiao Qingzhi led some soldiers to ambush here and waited quietly in the mountains and forests near the south bank of Qingwa Valley.

    When the heavy rain fell, the soldiers under his command had already turned into drowned rats.

    Even if they have coir raincoats and bamboo hats, in order to pursue the speed of the marching soldiers, the coir raincoats and bamboo hats become a burden and they inevitably have to be thrown away. After all, it affects the speed of the journey.

    Fortunately, they arrived at Qingwagou first, then arranged everything and made preparations.

    "Report!"

    At this time, soldiers came and reported: "Captain, Chen's army is less than three miles away from Qingwa Valley and is about to approach the Qingwa Valley river area."

    ¡°Let¡¯s explore again!¡±

    Xiao Qingzhi gave an order.

    He has already figured out all the details of this battle.

    The river channel of Qingwagou is full of gravel, and the water is very shallow, reaching the ankle level.  The area where the official road travels is extremely long, covering nearly 100 feet, where the Qingwagou River is located.

    Such an area can be entered by countless soldiers.  Therefore, after Chen Guo's army arrives, it will definitely disperse on a large scale and rush on its way in order to quickly cross the river.

    Exactly, this is the opportunity to defeat the opponent.

    Xiao Qingzhi waited quietly. After a short time, another sentry came back and reported: "Captain, Chen's army is less than a mile away from Qingwa Valley. Because the road here is not so muddy.  Everyone is moving quickly."

    ¡°Let¡¯s explore again!¡±

    Xiao Qingzhi gave the order mechanically again.

    The soldiers left, but Xiao Qingzhi was still waiting. When the soldiers came again to report that Chen Guo soldiers had arrived at Qingwa Valley and were preparing to cross the river, Xiao Qingzhi no longer hesitated and ordered: "Pull the rope immediately and notify the breach of the embankment to release water!"

    "yes!"

    The soldiers immediately went to inform.

    In the blink of an eye, soldiers began to pull the rope to notify.

    This method of notification was thought up by Xiao Qingzhi himself.  In order to grasp the most accurate time for breaking the embankment and releasing water, he never sent anyone to notify.

    ¡°After all, it was raining heavily and the roads were muddy, so it was impossible to go there on horseback.  It is simply impossible to travel by just relying on human legs, one foot deep and one foot shallow.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????way to shoot off arrows, can easily scare off the enemy.  On the other hand, because it has been raining, even if the rain has slowed down, the sound of the sounding arrow has been suppressed as it rose into the sky.

    Under this premise, Xiao Qingzhi chose to pull the rope and shake the bell on the rope to deliver the message.

    From the place where Xiao Qingzhi ambushed to the point where the embankment broke in the upper reaches of Qingwa Valley, there was a distance of about two miles.  This distance was divided into several sections by Xiao Qingzhi. Every other distance, he placed ropes on the ground and ensured that the ropes on the ground were straight.

    As long as one end is pulled, the person on the other end of the rope will find it in a blink of an eye.  In particular, there is a bell on the rope. Once the bell rings, it can be detected in advance and will not be ignored.  In addition, there were soldiers watching along the way to ensure that no one would cause trouble.

    Pulling the rope section by section, in a short period of time, the area was notified to the area two miles away.?.  Of course, this method can only transmit messages over short distances. Once the distance is further extended, it will not be possible and it will consume too much manpower and energy.

    Fortunately, Xiao Qingzhi¡¯s message was satisfactory.  In a short time, the soldiers stationed upstream found that the ropes were tightened and the bells were shaking and ringing loudly.

    ¡°Break the dike and release the water!¡±

    The generals in charge have already been prepared.

    The dam they built had several critical stones tied up with ropes.  Now as soon as the order was given, the soldiers pulled the ropes, the rocks moved, and a large-scale flood suddenly began to wash away.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? !

    The floodwaters washed away more and more, and in a blink of an eye, there was a loud bang, and the entire embankment was washed away.

    On the Qingwagou river channel, the accumulated river water began to rumble downwards.  The speed of such impact becomes faster and faster as the water flows downward.

    All the water flow continued to pour down, so that in a short period of time, countless floods had submerged the wide river downstream, and even caused the river surface to rise rapidly.

    When the river water began to rush downstream, on the official road crossing the river downstream, soldiers led by He Zheng had already crossed the river on a large scale.  Because the water flow in the hundred-foot-wide river was very small, only up to the ankles, the soldiers all let go and hurried on. They no longer lined up like long snakes, entered the river separately, and quickly headed to the other side of the river.

    He Zhengren was at the front, leading the team forward, neither too fast nor too slow.  He has now reached the center of the river and is walking forward.

    A large number of soldiers under his command were also spread across the river, following them forward.

    The group of people were chatting and laughing.

    Some people even stopped to wash their feet. After all, they were walking all the way and there was a lot of mud under their feet.  Now there is river water on the river, which is just right for cleaning.

    He Zheng was on his way now, already thinking about how to defeat the Qi army.

    Did you arrive at Guangling County and enter the city first to meet Han Song?

    Or directly attack the Qi army.

    After all, the war is coming, and He Zheng must think carefully in order to make adequate preparations.

    ???????????????????? Boom!  !  !

    Suddenly, there seemed to be a sound of earth shaking.

    He Zheng stopped immediately when he heard the sound.  He raised his head and glanced at the sky. It was still raining in the sky today. Although the water mist was misty, there was no thunder. It was obviously not caused by thunder.

    "not good!"

    He Zheng¡¯s eyes widened and a possibility came to his mind.

    Water attack!

    There is a river rushing upstream of Qingwa Valley. This is because the enemy wants to flood his soldiers.

    No wonder the river water in Qingwa Valley did not rise sharply.  You must know that it has been raining now, and the river should be swollen no matter what.  But here, it is not affected at all.  It's not that it's unaffected by the rain, it's that the upstream is blocked, so that's why it's like this.

    "Come on, speed up and rush over, the river is coming!"

    He Zheng shouted loudly, threw off his legs, and quickly rushed to the other side of the river.

    When He Zheng launched his charge, the soldiers under his command also heard the sound of rushing water and immediately understood.  All the soldiers panicked at this moment and ran wildly towards the north bank of Qingwa Valley.

    Now that we are halfway through the journey, we cannot go back, we can only rush forward.

    ???????????????????? Boom!  !  !

    The sound of the impact of the river water became closer and closer. In the blink of an eye, it appeared upstream, and the impact of the river could already be seen.

    The river at the front is rushing.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
