Chapter 440: Ready to Go


In the evening, the demons attacked the city again, leaving hundreds of corpses of armored demons behind and then fled.

It seemed that Qianfeng did not intend to attack the city by force, or perhaps, he had other plans.

In the demon camp, a group of senior generals looked with cold eyes, waiting for lectures.

Qianfeng put his palm on a cup of tea, lightly felt the steam, and asked without raising his head: "Is there any news about your two highnesses?"

"Not yet."

Lianxiao cupped his fists and said, "Your Highness was kidnapped by the empire's naval warship.

The warship was sailing on the Dao River.

When our wingmen tracked the warship, there was no one on board."

"snort" Qian Feng lightly placed his palm on the table and said: "If we can't find your two highnesses, we'll just wait and lose our heads together.

Also, when will the Horseshoe Legion arrive?"

"Those water ghosts," Lianxiao looked a little disdainful, and said: "The horseshoe crabs are born stupid and don't know how to communicate, so there is no news about them yet, but they arrived in the eastern part of Lingdong Province two months ago.

It’s a shallow sea area.

It stands to reason that if they hadn’t gotten lost, they would have entered the Daojiang River Basin in Cangnan Province.”

"Polish small and sharp weapons."

"Commander, what are you going to do with these?"

"Equip it to the Horseshoe Legion."

Qianfeng said calmly: "Lin Muyu began to dig the waters of the Daojiang River.

Needless to think, he had already given up the land retreat method when he learned that we were building a city, so he planned to retreat from the Daojiang River.

Hey, if he If you really want to go by water, then you are on your own Looking for death, the horseshoe man army can easily penetrate every empire.

I want Lin Muyu to be ruined on Daojiang River.

You must quickly arrange for the casting of weapons and contact the horseshoe men.

Let the horseshoe men hold their breath for me.

No!

Show their heads, otherwise Lin Muyu’s ears and eyes will be able to detect them.”

"yes" Note: Horseshoe crab is read as hou, an underwater stegopleura creature.

In the west part of Wugu City, with a "squeak" sound, a huge iron door flat on the ground slowly opened, carrying thick dust.

Under the light of the torch, Lin Muyu stepped into the ground step by step under the protection of Wei Chou, Situ Sen, Situ Xue and others with a calm face, while Zhao Ritian, the former commander of Wugu City, held up the torch and said respectfully: "This The shipyard was built three hundred years ago.

Because it is hidden underground, few people except the governor know about it.

We also discovered it accidentally recently. " The underground space is very spacious.

In the distance, warships are stranded on the ground.

The water in the underground shipyard has long dried up.

"When did you discover it?"

Lin Muyu asked.

"Just this morning, a few children accidentally discovered this place while playing.

My subordinates protected this place very carefully and did not move at all."

"Yeah" Lin Muyu looked at the footprints on the soles of a warship and couldn't help but smile secretly and said, "Come on, let's get on the ship and take a look."

When everyone boarded the first warship, they found that it was piled with boxes.

Wei Qiu stepped forward and pried open the first box.

There was a bright golden light inside, and all of them were gold coins.

"Tian" Situ Xue's beautiful eyes were about to shine with golden light.

Zhao Ritian said: "These warships all belong to Hu Tiening."

"That's it" Lin Muyu smiled slightly: "It should be that Hu Tiening originally planned to use a warship to transport gold coins to leave Wugu City, but he was shot dead by his father's secret messenger before he could leave.

Let's count how many gold coins there are in total."

Wei Qiu counted them silently and said, "Sir, these warships are full of gold coins.

Judging by the number, they are at least 20 million gold coins."

Situ Xue couldn't help laughing: "Wow, I really made a fortune this time."

Lin Muyu said: "These are the illegal gains of Hu Tiening's private gold mining and coinage.

We can't touch them.

Wei Qiu sent people down to move all the gold coins off the boat.

We have to use these boats to escape.

We can't take these many gold coins with us." ” "Ah, Commander, don't want it.

Don't you want this money?"

Situ Xue was a little unhappy.

Lin Muyu couldn't help but look at her with a smile: "General Xue, don't be anxious, just don't do it for now.

After defeating the demons, this place will naturally still be our territory, and it won't be too late to come back and move."

Wei Qiu took a deep breath and said: "Sir, with all due respect, this Wugu City was originally a city ruled by Xiang Yu, and it was also the territory of Duke Lan.

However, basically all the guards of Xiang Yu and Duke Lan fought.

If we leave, it is best to leave some troops to guard Wugu City.

In this way, after defeating the demons, Wugu City will be ours, and our surname will be Qin instead of Tang. " "That's what I meant."

Lin Muyu nodded: "Select one of the thousand commanders of the Gendan Camp to serve as the military commander of Wugu City.

Zhao Ritian appointed him as the deputy commander, and then selected ten centurions to serve as the military commander of Wugu City.

Commander, integrate all the city defense troops and security forces in Wugu City.

From now on, this army will only take orders from me and Her Majesty the Empress."

Wei Qiu smiled and nodded: "I will go and do it right away."

Late at night, there was a lively scene in the underground dock.

Everyone in the Gentian Camp quickly carried boxes of gold coins and diverted water from the Dao River to launch all the nearly 50 warships in the dock.

They just waited.

Following Lin Muyu's order, he evacuated the desperate area of ​​Wugu City.

After all, no one wanted to stay here and wait to die.

In the handsome tent, Situ Xue personally held a candle and followed Lin Muyu to illuminate the terrain on the sand table.

Lin Muyu looked and looked again, and finally his eyes fell on a basin plain between Wugu City and Lie City.

He pressed his index finger deep on it and asked: "Where is this?"

A military staff officer from Wugu City clasped his fists and said, "I would like to inform you, Commander-in-Chief, this basin is called Yehuoyuan."

"What's the altitude?"

"1025 meters."

"What is the altitude of the Daojiang River?"

"1023 meters.

According to the current season, it should be 1024 meters."

"Too low."

Lin Muyu frowned and said, "How high are the dams on both sides of the Dao River?"

"A hundred meters higher than the water surface.

That is the dam ordered by the King of Light to be built twenty years ago."

"oh" Lin Muyu couldn't help but feel excited.

She looked up at the sky and said, "Father helped me again."

"Commander, what do you mean?"

Situ Xue looked confused.

Lin Muyu smiled, said nothing, and continued to ask: "Counsellor, how big is the area of ​​​​Yehuo Plains, and how does it compare to the water storage capacity of Daojiang River?"

The counselor frowned and said, "This requires detailed mapping, otherwise my subordinates would not dare to make false claims."

"I don't have time to do any mapping.

Tell me what proportions you think are most correct."

"yes."

The counselor clasped his fists and said: "Commander, the waters in the main basin of the Daojiang River are very wide and fast.

Based on the area of ​​the wildfire plain, if you want to accumulate one meter of water in the wildfire plain, you will need at least three meters of water from the Daojiang River basin to irrigate half of it.

For a long time, According to the commander's military strategy, if it is to be implemented, at least five meters of water must be stored in the wildfire field, so the water in the Daojiang River basin needs to be three meters high and watered at a fast flow rate for one and a half hours, and this is just an optimistic estimate

.

"

"I see."

Lin Muyu nodded approvingly: "Thank you for your hard work.

You can't tell anyone about this.

Once you succeed, you will have made a great contribution."

"Thank you, little man, for your cultivation."

Lin Muyu looked at the terrain on the sand table again.

The counselor smiled slightly, pointed to a point on the Dao River Basin, and said: "Here, it is only five miles away from Liecheng where Commander Feng Jixing is stationed.

There used to be a cutoff here.

The dam on the river, called Liecheng Dam, was later demolished, but a lot of adobe bricks were left.

With one hundred thousand soldiers and civilians, the dam could be built to store water within three days. " "good" Lin Muyu slapped the desk and said, "Get a pen and paper, I want to write a letter to Brother Feng."

Situ Xue looked confused and said: "Yes" "Also, send an order to search for balsa wood in Wugu City.

Each Gentian Camp soldier must carry a piece of balsa wood.

The standard size of the wood is enough to float the human body on the water."

"yes" Early the next morning, the messenger bird Xiaobai flapped its wings and landed on the window sill of a small courtyard in Liecheng, chirping a few times.

A female employee of the Department of Spiritual Medicine gently picked up Xiao Bai, knocked on the door and said: "Arch Deacon, the letter bird is here."

"real" Chu Yao stood up and took the letter bird from the female staff member with excitement.

Lin Muyu's handwriting was clearly visible on it, although the letter was addressed to Feng Jixing.

"Let's go, follow me to see Commander Feng."

"yes" Putting on the cloak of the great deacon of the Department of Spiritual Medicine, he rode straight to the south of Lie City.

In the wounded barracks, many soldiers injured in the battle with the demons were recuperating here, while Feng Jixing was inspecting the training in the shooting range.

When Chu Yao came, Feng Jixing immediately turned around and said, "Ayao, what's wrong?"

"A letter from Ayu" "Show me quickly" "Um."

After Feng Jixing unfolded the letter and read every word carefully, he couldn't help but feel excited on his face.

"What did Ayu say, Commander Feng?"

"Hahaha" Feng Jixing laughed, his eyes full of fighting spirit, and said: "Ayu is probably the only one in the world who can come up with such a crazy strategy.

He immediately collected cloth bags and sacks in the whole city, and put all the cloth Take them out and make them into sandbags, fill them with sand and soil for later use, and use all the manpower we can use to do it immediately.

This is the highest order from Lie City and even the empire."

"Yes, Commander" Feng Jixing looked in the direction of Wugu City in the south and said, "I hope it will succeed this time.

As long as it succeeds, Ayu will have accomplished something unparalleled."

"What on earth is it?"

Chu Yao asked somewhat unhappily.

Feng Jixing looked at her dotingly and said with a smile: "I can't tell you military secrets.

When we succeed, Ayao will naturally understand."

Chu Yao is Chu Huaimian's sister, and Feng Jixing is Chu Huaimian's best friend.

Perhaps Feng Jixing has already treated Chu Yao as his own sister, perhaps unconsciously
