Looking at the surging river, Yun Qing was also stunned.
What was going on?
When it comes to the blessing of the God of War, Yun Qing definitely doesn't believe it.
The God of War became a god in this world, so it is indeed possible that his divine power would play a certain role in this world.
Just like an oath sworn in the name of the God of War on the mainland, once it is violated, the power of the God of War will resonate with the power of the three heavenly books and play a role.
But that has nothing to do with the will of the God of War itself.
To put it bluntly, it was just the divine power of the God of War and the three heavenly books that played a role.
But what happened to this unintentional river?
Why did it rush in just when the troops of the Prairie Wolf Court were catching up?
And this was really a big help, otherwise I would definitely eat it if I fought with the opponent here.
Big loss.
Originally, Yunqing had less than 300,000 troops from the four forces gathered together, and among these 300,000, there were actually not many elites belonging to the Benlei Army and the Zhenbei Army.
The two combined have only 40,000 people, and the others belonging to the two legions are only recruits or soldiers from the reserve corps.
Originally, these soldiers would not go to the battlefield because Tianhua's major legions implemented an elite system.
Each legion had only 100,000 formal soldiers, and most of the others were reserve corps.
It's not that the soldiers in the reserve corps are all new recruits, but they are soldiers who have been trained for a period of time but cannot be selected into the formal corps.
Once someone in the official corps retires or dies in battle, the reserve corps will screen out outstanding soldiers to replenish them.
But now facing the all-out attack of the Prairie Wolf Court, as a last resort, the reserve corps of each legion and even the new recruits recruited to replenish the reserve legion were sent to the northern battlefield.
However, in order to ensure the combat effectiveness of these soldiers, the policy of veterans leading new recruits was adopted.
The elites of each legion were divided into teams of 20,000, led by several generals from each legion, and then mixed reserve legions and new recruits to form a team.
A regiment of 100,000 people went to various strategic locations for defense.
In this way, having elite veterans with them can ensure that the new recruits who have never seen blood will not panic too much and lose their position.
Originally, Yunqing wanted to fight because he planned to take advantage of the prairie wolf court's large army to cross the river, so if he went back and sniped in the river, then even if he would eventually be defeated due to the disparity in numbers, the price the opponent would have to pay would definitely be extremely heavy. .
But now the river surged, not only washing away the soldiers from Prairie Wolf Court who had already entered the river, but also cutting off the way back for the soldiers who had crossed the river safely.
What made Yunqing even more happy was that the large army behind the Prairie Wolf Court was directly cut off by the river, and he sighed while looking at the river.
Because there is a plain nearby, there are no trees for them to cut down to build a pontoon bridge.
And if you swim across the river, you are putting your life in the hands of Tianhua soldiers.
The leader of the Prairie Wolf Court saw the opportunity very quickly.
When he saw this situation, he directly ordered a retreat.
He no longer paid attention to the soldiers who were isolated on the other side.
After a fierce battle, all the Prairie Wolf Court soldiers who crossed the river were annihilated.
Yunqing looked at the rushing river and sighed: "Now is the time to retreat.
Prairie Wolf Court probably found trees to cut down to make a pontoon bridge.
In this case , the speed of their pursuit will be greatly delayed, and we will have time to retreat. " "Hahaha, Your Majesty the Duke, I really didn't expect that this river would suddenly flood.
I'm afraid the people in the Prairie Wolf Court will be scared out of their wits."
Luo Hui was covered in blood, but the victory just now still made him inexplicably excited. .
Yun Qing looked upstream thoughtfully, and he had probably guessed what was going on.
"Maybe it was that little girl's idea again."
Yun Qing thought of Ke'er's plan, blocking the upstream river and directly flooding the Yunshan Army.
This time it's probably the same old trick.
After withdrawing more than ten miles again, they encountered Li Qiaozhi leading the infantry of the Yun Family Army to meet them.
"Are you okay?"
Li Qiaozhi looked at the embarrassed Yun Qing with a smile: "The flood didn't wash you away too."
"Sure enough," Yun Qing heard what she said and became more sure of his guess: "Ke'er, that little girl must have done something wrong."
"Yes, the father and his daughter took people upstream to get it.

It looks like you haven't been washed away."
She waved her hand with a smile: "Brothers, bring food and water to the soldiers."
Following her words, carriages were pulled forward by the soldiers in charge of logistics, filled with food and water cans.
Then the soldiers began distributing food and water.
"Where's Yan Hui?"
Yun Qing was curious when he saw that she was the only one.
Haven't the two of them been together all the time during this time?
"I am responsible for meeting you and setting up defenses, and she is responsible for guiding and evacuating people from all over the place."
Li Qiaozhi explained: "There is no way, who made her the eldest lady of the Lin family.
I can't mobilize the resources of the Lin family, how can it be so simple to move the people?
With the Lin family’s huge resource support, it is simply impossible to accomplish a migration of this scale.”
Yun Qing was right.
No matter it was migration or anything else, didn't it all require money?
Moreover, such a large-scale migration would cost at least millions of gold coins every day.
Only the Lin family can probably afford such a huge number.
Even the treasury of the Tianhua Empire would not be able to come up with so much money.
"But this time the Lin family is going to suffer a lot of bleeding.
Although it won't hurt their muscles and bones, their voices in various places will be affected a lot."
Li Qiaozhi sighed: "Yunqing, the situation is not only bad in the north.
The situation in the south is also bad.
Things are not going well for Piaoyun either.
Lin Zhengxing has been defeated again and again.
Currently, he only controls the three counties in the north of Piaoyun, and the control area is only about one-sixth of Piaoyun.
Moreover, the third prince's offensive is getting stronger and stronger.
It’s so violent, I’m afraid he won’t be able to hold on for long.”
After hearing this, Yun Qing was even more surprised: "Why did you lose so quickly?"
Although he knew that Lin Zhengxing had failed miserably before, he never expected that he would reach this point so quickly.
"I guess the Su family got involved."
Li Qiaozhi sighed: "As expected of a great family that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, not even a single clue was revealed, making it impossible for the Seven Holy Lands to find any clues.
Even a member of the Lin family None of the three intelligence networks, overt and covert, were found."
"This is not surprising.
It can be seen from the fact that they were able to easily mobilize people and silently wipe out a village in Yeyue last time.
Their layout may have been in progress for decades or even longer.
Perhaps.
All the major forces have their own nails."
Yun Qing said.
"Yes, Sister Hui and I have a headache now.
The situation we finally opened up in Piaoyun has been ruined.
If it weren't for the support of the Yu family, Lin Zhengxing would have been defeated long ago."
Li Qiaozhi was very depressed: "But because the ancestors of the Yu family are in seclusion, they are now quarreling among the elders.
Although Yu Keqing is strong, he cannot give Lin Zhengxing full support.
I am afraid that in a while, the entire Piaoyun will be controlled by the Su family."
Yun Qing couldn't help but frown, such words were quite bad.
If Piaoyun fell into the secret control of the Su family at this time, it would definitely be a fatal threat to Tianhua.
He knew Su Ziyu's ambition.

How could he miss the opportunity to take advantage of the situation?
He would definitely let the third prince Piaoyun send troops from the south to take a bite of Tianhua.
"It seems that the situation in the north must be stabilized as soon as possible, otherwise it will be very bad if we fall into a two-front war."
Yun Qing took a deep breath: "Don't mention this in advance, let's withdraw first."
After leading all the soldiers to rest, Yun Qing immediately ordered to continue retreating south.
But not long after walking, Yun Qing and other generals' faces turned into bitter melons.
"My Lord Duke, isn't this a bit too much?"
Fu Zhen looked at the ground in front of him in stunned silence.
I saw that the originally built road had been dug into ditches and ravines, along with the nearby fields, and the river water had also been diverted.
It simply became a large, continuous paddy field.
This was good, as it immediately slowed down the retreat of Yun Qing and others to the south.
"Sister Hui came up with this idea.
She led the young people among the people to stay and dig together with the defenders.
In this way, the speed of the Prairie Wolf Court going south can be limited to the greatest extent.
For our tactics of strengthening the wall and clearing the field, The evacuation of the people will buy more time," Li Qiaozhi explained while lying on Yun Qing's back.
Yun Qing looked at the mud that was up to his knees and said with a grimace, "But this has also slowed down our retreat."
At this time, even the cavalrymen had dismounted and led their horses across.
Under such circumstances, the horses walked very hard.
Li Qiaozhi was carried on Yun Qing's back, so he didn't have to work so hard.
After finally walking out of this extremely painful place, Yun Qing saw Ling Yue'er and the Holy Dragon Army responding from the front.
"It's really hard work.
To be honest, when they wanted to do this, I also considered objecting.
But in the end I agreed."
Ling Yue'er said: "Since such a large-scale migration has been carried out to ensure the strategy of strengthening the wall and clearing the wilderness, then Just follow through.”
"It's not a big deal.
It's just a little hard work."
Yun Qing didn't think much of it.
This was not a big trouble.
Anyway, he had got rid of the pursuit, and it was time to fight back.
Ling Yue'er took out the map: "Next, I will lead the army to defend the defense line north of Xiongtian Pass.
There are several Xiongtian Passes in this area.
The surrounding terrain is dangerous, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Moreover, under our tactics of clearing the field with strong walls in such a range, , they won’t be able to stay long without supplies.”
"In that case, I will lead people to attack their supplies in this area."
Looking at the map, Yun Qing laughed: "Now it's our turn to hide and seek with them."
Li Qiaozhi added: "It is best to send out multiple small forces to spread out to attack, which will be more effective.
In such a large area, they don't want to find you at all.
And if they spread out their manpower to protect the supply line, then we can take the initiative Attack.
In this way, we have the initiative in our hands
