Chapter 260: 259 Burst

For the next period of time, the imperial army and the Dragon King Village are still in a standoff

However, the officials and soldiers of the imperial court slowed down their offensive, contracted their front lines, retreated a certain distance and stationed at a distance, and no longer directly approached the water village on the front line of Longwang Village.

In the camp, Lingfengzi listened to military discussions as usual every day, but Ma Zhen only said that he would keep his troops and did not explain the reason.

But the officers who attended the meeting found something unusual. Huang Ping, who was also a senior general, disappeared for many days.

Someone asked about this, Ma Zhen said that Huang Ping received the military order and led his troops to receive a batch of important materials allocated by the court to prevent them from being cut off by bandits and so on.

Everyone believed it to be true and did not ask questions. Lingfengzi in the idle state just faithfully recorded the information and quietly passed it to Longwangzhai, and did not take the initiative to ask the truth.

This is actually a false information, Ma Zhen used the excuse to deal with everyone, just to conceal Huang Ping’s movements.

In fact, at this time, Huang Ping took his order and left quietly with his troops, heading to the upstream estuary of Huyang, and began to implement the plan to burst the embankment.

This task is of great importance and should not be missed. In order to hide his tracks, Huang Ping did not bring a large number of troops and horses into action.

Due to the implementation of the five strategies of breaking thieves, the official army concentrated and controlled many civilians scattered in the countryside, resulting in a decrease in the eyesight of Longwangzhai scattered in the wild, which brought a lot of convenience to Huang Ping’s covert operations.

In order to prevent leaks, the soldiers in Huang Ping’s team did not know the details of the mission, and thought they were going back to fight.

This team marched cautiously all the way, and after some delay, they finally reached their destination.

Huyang, Dingbokou.

This is a river bank that has been built for many years, dating back to before the establishment of the Great Xia Kingdom.

There are many rivers in Huyang, the largest of which is the main river called the Shahe. It runs from west to east and runs through the Central Plains. Dingbokou is on the bank of the Shahe River.

However, the Shahe River floods all the year round, and the flood control effect of Dingbokou has been somewhat unable to keep up. Therefore, in recent years, there have been frequent floods in Huyang.

But even so, this is still an important embankment. Although it cannot prevent flooding, it can at least be controlled to a certain extent, so that the flood will not break out completely.

Huang Ping arrived with the troops and asked the soldiers to stand by for a while, while he looked at the surging river, his eyes flashing.

The lieutenant on the side of    asked carefully: “General, what are we doing here?”

“The commander has an order to open the Dingbokou river embankment and flood the bandits.”

Huang Ping’s tone was indifferent, unable to hear his feelings.

The lieutenant was stunned for a moment, and then his face changed slightly: “Is this true? If the Shahe river bursts and floods, then the people of Huyang will…

Before he finished speaking, Huang Ping turned to look at him with cold eyes.

The deputy general was watched by him, his voice gradually lowered, and finally he remained silent,

Seeing this, Huang Ping withdrew his gaze, his tone was unquestionable, and he said coldly:

“Pass on our military orders, break the embankment!”

The lieutenant was helpless and quickly sent the order down.

Until this time, the army of the trip did not know the goal of the trip, and the officers and soldiers were in an uproar and couldn’t believe it.

The top is so hot?!

This kind of sinful act of cutting off sons and grandchildren immediately met with resistance from many soldiers. …

However, disobeying the military order is a taboo and will be dealt with by military law. The officers and soldiers dared not disobey, so they had no choice but to do so and began to tear open the embankment.

But not long after, a few villagers suddenly appeared nearby, hurried over and shouted anxiously:

“Generals, this embankment cannot be dug!”

The officers and soldiers who were working heard the sound, turned their heads one after another, and looked over in amazement,

These villagers who suddenly appeared were all dressed in ragged clothes, with dark skin and calluses on their hands. At first glance, they looked like farmers working all year round.

The guards patrolling all around immediately controlled these anxious villagers.

Huang Ping’s eyes narrowed, and people brought them to the front.

was taken to the military tent, and these farmers were embarrassed and performed a nondescript etiquette.

“Who is coming, register your name to come…”

Huang Ping opened his mouth to question.

After a while, he figured out the origins of these people.

It turned out that there was a small settlement with more than 20 families nearby, and the location was relatively remote and secluded.

These farmers are from the village. They happened to bump into this team of officers and soldiers when they were out. They didn’t plan to show up.

You can see the actions of the officers and soldiers on the embankment. Several people couldn’t sit still and couldn’t care about other things. They wanted to run out to dissuade them.

“This great general, this Dingbo mouth cannot be dug. If this place collapses, there will be a flood!”

“Yeah, if there is a breach here, thousands of miles around here will suffer!”

Several farmers looked nervous and tried to discourage them.

Huang Ping was noncommittal and asked his personal soldiers to take the farmer down.

Then, he turned towards the lieutenant and said lightly:

“Let these mud legs lead the way, send hundreds of soldiers and horses to follow, and use all the villagers as coolies to help us dig the river embankment… In addition, our actions need to be kept secret, and we must not leave a living hole and let the news leak, and we will all be executed after the event is completed. .”

“…the last will be obeyed.”

The lieutenant was silent for two seconds before taking the order.

He strode out of the military tent with an angry look on his face, but in the end he turned into a helpless look and ordered soldiers.

It didn’t take much time for the officers and soldiers to capture the civilians in the nearby villages and drive them into coolies.

In order to save their lives, these villagers can only do

As the embankment was torn apart step by step, the water potential gradually increased, and the roaring river water soon caused the embankment to burst.

At this stage, manpower is no longer needed. Thousands of hectares of river water are poured out, and the breach will continue to expand. When it develops to the end, it can only be filled with human life.

Huang Ping stopped the troops from working, killed all the people who were kidnapped, and threw the corpses into the river.

The corpse of a dead body floats up and down in the river, and flows down the river.

Huang Ping didn’t take a second look, he immediately led his troops to take them away quickly, and retired when he succeeded.

Leaving only the angry river rushing endlessly, breaking the embankment, leaking more and more, and flowing farther and farther,

Somewhere in Huyang, among the forests.

Zhou Jing and a thousand soldiers are resting here, but there are only about a thousand people.

He didn’t sit in the cottage these days, and personally led his troops outside to use the rogue style, harassing the officials and troops to the point of death.

Because he mainly attacked the enemy with his own force, he did not bring many troops and horses.

During this period of time, we attacked many times, and the results were rich. We destroyed many military camps, and a large number of officers and soldiers were unable to retreat. …

“If we continue to exert pressure like this, sooner or later the imperial army will not be able to bear it and let go. Now the situation is in our favor. I don’t know how long the enemy will be able to hold on… Speaking of which, the officers and soldiers seem to be helpless now, do they really want to give up the expedition?”

Zhou Jing thought to himself while biting the jerky.

Right at this moment, the minions who were out in the wind suddenly ran in.

“Report! The owner of the village, two villagers have come to ask for an interview, saying that there is an urgent report!”

“bring it here.”

Zhou Jing came back to his senses, which is not surprising.

He has been running around in the Huyang boundary during this period of time, and he has not hidden his tracks. Although he has no fixed place, occasionally villagers who are not under the control of the government can bump into him and come to see him.

Soon, two dusty villagers were brought in.

Seeing Zhou Jing sitting with the golden sword of the horse, the two of them immediately turned their heads and bowed, with an eager tone;

“Chen Zhaizhu, the big thing is bad, the flood broke out again!”

Zhou Jing heard Yizheng: “Flood disaster? Shouldn’t it be the flood season?”

“It’s true, our village is flooded!”

The two villagers said their words with certainty, their faces full of anxiety

“Could it be that something happened upstream, where the embankment has been in disrepair for a long time and has a breach?”

Zhou Jing frowned.

Is this an accident or man-made?

Could it be that the officers and soldiers are going to attack with water and flood the Seventh Army? But at present, the two sides are in the upstream area, and it seems that there is no stalemate battle.

In addition, there was no information on the military transfer of the corresponding officers and soldiers from Bill’s side.

For the first time, he didn’t think in another direction… The imperial court, as the orthodox in the world, was so “bold” that it gave up the territory of a province under its jurisdiction, directly flooded the entire area, broke the jar, and broke the lower limit once again.

Although it is also very sinister to drive the people to attack, the official army has a name anyway, and what they drive is “cooperating with the enemy and conspiracy to commit crimes.”

civil”.

While digging embankments and flooding Huyang, there is no name at all. Regardless of the survival of the people here, there is a lack of great virtue, and there is no **** to give birth to a child.

“Okay, let’s go and have a look. If it’s easy to do, I’ll send someone from the stockade to govern.” Zhou Jing immediately made a decision.

Shuiyi is the main disaster in Huyang. Since this place is regarded as the foundation, no matter whether it is external or artificial, it must be dealt with.

Besides, this is not the first time that this kind of thing has happened. In the past two years, when the government was in bad shape, Longwangzhai would occasionally treat water and save people, and it was already a familiar way.

“Thank you, Zhaizhu, thank you Zhaizhu!”

The two villagers immediately thanked Dade and thanked them again and again.

At this time, one of them seemed to remember something and said:

“By the way, on the way we came, we found the footprints left by a large group of people passing by on the southeast fork road. I don’t know if they were the people of the village owner.”

“Southeasterly? We don’t seem to have walked over there.”

A leader next to him interjected in doubt

Hearing this, Zhou Jing’s eyes flashed.

Since he is not one of his own, then this unknown team is probably from the imperial court.

appeared abruptly in the vicinity, and most of them had no intentions.

“Catch up with this group first, and capture them for questioning.”

Zhou Jing didn’t hesitate, made a decision immediately, and greeted Zhong Erlang to set off.
