    In order to prevent Wancheng from being destroyed by floods, Zhou Yu dug three ditches overnight, hoping to divert the floods away.

    Now when the flood came closer, Zhou Yu, who was standing on the top of the city, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it.

    Because generally speaking, the greatest damage caused by floods is the overwhelming impact generated when the embankment breaks.

    At this time, anything standing in front of it will be swept away.

    Even a strong city wall will be destroyed by floods if it receives such a huge impact.

    Fortunately, after being channeled, the power of the flood gradually weakened, and when it reached the city, there was no city destruction or loss of life.

    So, this is why Zhou Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

    It¡¯s just that the amount of water in the flood was too great, even if it didn¡¯t break down the city wall at the first contact.

    But it still submerged Wancheng directly. Looking around, except for a few exposed mountains, it was all a vast ocean.

    Now, even if Sun Ce wanted to retreat, it would be impossible.

    Therefore, Sun Ce looked around with a cold face and said slowly: "Thanks to the three temporary ditches dug by Gong Jin, Wancheng was saved from the fate of being destroyed in an instant.

    But now that Wancheng is surrounded by floods, how should we respond in this way?  "

    Zhou Yu responded: "Your Majesty, among your ministers, the most important thing now is to count the losses first.

    The city was flooded, and our army had already responded. Although there were not many casualties, a lot of food, grass and baggage were destroyed.

    Therefore, only with clear statistics can the next step be taken based on the loss situation.

    Another important thing is drainage.  Although the city wall is strong, the main body is made of rammed earth, so it is not afraid of being exposed to wind and rain for a short period of time.

    But if it is immersed in water for a long time, its foundation will definitely be shaken. At that time, the enemy will only need to fire a huge stone, and the city wall will be easily destroyed!  "

    When Sun Ce heard this, he immediately said: "What Gong Jin said is exactly what Gu meant. Cheng Pu and Huang Gai, Gu ordered you two to count the losses.

    Jiang Qin and Chen Wu, you two quickly move your navy out of the city to drain water. Han Dang and Zu Mao, you two are inside the city to drain water!  "

    The generals responded in unison and took orders to take action.

    However, when they actually reached the ground, everyone finally saw the power of this flood.

    The water in the city has reached the waist, and is at least three feet deep.

    This is because Wancheng itself is slightly higher than the surrounding area, and the water outside the city is even deep enough for one person.

    It is very difficult for ordinary soldiers to move within the city. As for leaving the city, only Jiang Qin's navy has this ability.

    Jiang Qin drove a boat out of the east gate and went directly to the navy garrison.

    ?????????????????????? Originally, all the ships of the Navy were in the water, but now it is impossible to tell which is the river and which is the flat land, because it is all water as far as the eye can see.

    Fortunately, the rising tide lifts all boats, so the navy's losses are not huge.

    So, Jiang Qin immediately led the navy to divert the flood.

    ¡°This time there is so much water around Wancheng, which is inseparable from the terrain where it is located.

    Especially downstream of the flood, that is, south of Wancheng, are the high slopes of Longgang and Zheshan.

    It usually looks inconspicuous, but at the critical moment it just stops the flood and forms a natural reservoir.

    Especially before Liu Ke left, he built a dam in the valley between Longgang and Zheshan.

    It blocked all the floods and did not give any chance to release the floods.

    Therefore, Jiang Qin¡¯s goal is the man-made dam. As long as it is destroyed, the flood will continue to flow downstream.

    Then the water around Wancheng will be drained.

    However, although Jiang Qin discovered the key, he did not know that there was already an ambush waiting for him there.

    When Jiang Qin arrived, he would immediately land on the Zheshan side and then dig the dam here.

    He had just commanded half of his troops to climb Mount Zhe, when a loud noise suddenly startled everyone.

    Jiang Qin quickly looked around and saw a group of people suddenly appearing on the top of the mountain.

    As soon as the opponent emerged from the bushes and dense forest, he unceremoniously fired a salvo of thousands of arrows and shot them all over his head and face.

    "Hahaha! Jiang Qin, if you want to destroy the dam, ask your Grandpa Gan Ning first!"

    "Gan Ning?!"

    Jiang Qin had been defeated by Gan Ning the day before yesterday. Unexpectedly, he bumped into him again on a narrow road.

    ?He gritted his teeth and looked at the opponent, and immediately led his troops to charge forward.

    However, Gan Ning had been preparing for a long time and was naturally fully prepared.

    As soon as Jiang Qin's army started to move upward, they were forced back again by the rolling rocks that hit them head-on. The navy was also hit and stopped moving forward.

    Jiang Qin was furious when he saw this.

    He immediately rushed to the front, drew his sword and shouted: "Soldiers, the king is still trapped in Wancheng.

    Whether we can get out of trouble or not is up to us.  Everyone, follow me and rush forward, defeat the enemy and rescue the king!  "

    The general took the lead and really mobilized morale.

    The soldiers under his command finally followed Jiang Qin and rushed towards the mountain.

    Unexpectedly, not far after they rushed out, a series of sharp stakes blocked their way up the mountain.

    ¡°These were all temporarily buried by Gan Ning in order to delay the other party¡¯s time.

    Because if Jiang Qin ignored him, he could naturally shoot at will on the mountain to prevent him from destroying the dike.

    If he fights back, he will only be able to pull them out one by one, but he will also be attacked by himself.

    Therefore, looking at the sharp wooden stakes in front of him, Jiang Qin became more and more anxious.

    He was about to order someone to come forward and pull them all out, but at this moment, a cry suddenly came from the water.

    "General, come back quickly, the enemy is attacking the ship!"

    "What?!"

    Jiang Qin was shocked when he heard this. He must know that this place is full of water. Without the boat, they would be unable to move.

    By then, won¡¯t we become a turtle in a urn, a fish in a net, ready to be slaughtered by others?

    So at the critical moment, Jiang Qin could only abandon the enemy troops on the top of the mountain and return to the ship to defend.

    This naval force was naturally arranged by Gan Ning early.

    The purpose is to put the other party in the first place and not care about each other.

    Seeing that Jiang Qin had no choice but to retreat, Gan Ning left some soldiers on the mountain to continue the defense.

    He led the remaining people down the mountain from the other side of Zheshan and joined the water battle.

    Therefore, at the foot of Zheshan Mountain, above the flood, a fierce water battle broke out instantly.

    There were obviously more ships on Gan Ning's side than on the other side, and they rushed towards them as soon as they appeared.

    There is also a small building ship with a height of three feet, which was recently built by surprise.

    Gan Ning stood on the ship and commanded it to run rampant on the water.

    A dragon's head on the bow of the ship hit the corner and was covered with iron. It was so powerful that with just one hit, it broke an enemy warship in half from the middle.

    Under its leadership, the Gan-Ning naval forces were arrogant, killing Jiang Qin and losing his troops, destroying ships and destroying people.

    Seeing this, Jiang Qin could only helplessly retreat to the city with his remaining troops, waiting for an opportunity to fight again.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
