Ji Ling finally knew where he felt awkward at the beginning, that is, when Wara's army cut off the water source of the Wuding River, there was no water at all on the civil fort on the higher terrain!
It was good to say that when I was cooking last night, although no one would carry a big bucket when the army fled for their lives, many people had a kettle or a water bladder on them, so they could make do with it.
However, the next morning, when many soldiers were ordered to dig up the groundwater, only to find that there was no underground water source on the fort, the whole army fell into despair.
At first, he didn't believe in this evil, but when he wielded a shovel in the pit and dug down several meters with a group of soldiers, he found that there was really no underground water source on the civil fort.
It's over, there is no water source, there is not enough food to bring, and the reinforcements don't know when they will arrive, and more than 100,000 people are in a desperate situation!
"Sir, what should I do now!"
Zhu Qizhen was already in a hurry at this time, "If it goes on like this, the army's morale will be chaotic!"
” "Your Majesty, for today's plan, you can only stick to it and wait for help!"
Wang Zhen was already frightened at this time, anyway, he had water to drink, so he didn't worry about being thirsty, "Wara's offensive is too fierce, if the formation of the civil fort is broken again, we will have no way to escape!"
” Who knew that at this moment, the British Gong Zhang Fu and the horse commander Jing Yuan suddenly walked over, leaned over and bowed, "Your Majesty, many sergeants in the camp have fainted due to lack of water, and I implore Your Majesty to allow the minister to lead a battalion of soldiers and horses down to seize the water source!"
” "Oh, British duke, I can't help it!
The Warats are playing a trick on us right now!
As long as you go down, you will definitely fall into their ambush!
"Wang Zhen is almost a soldier at this time, in his opinion, it can be said that he can drag on for a moment, as for those soldiers who faint due to lack of water, he will not care!
"Then you have to go down and grab water!"
Zhang Fu looked at Wang Zhen and said firmly, "Now there are a lot of soldiers who are secretly killing mules and horses to drink blood, if this continues, let alone defending the civil fort, we can't even find a few soldiers with physical strength!"
” "Your Majesty, when the mountains and rivers are exhausted, even if we want to, we won't be able to rush!"
Jing Yuan tried his best to help on the side, "The place where the water source of the Wuding River was cut off should not be far from here, only seven or eight miles away, and the minister must dig a hole in the wall where they blocked the water source!"
” Zhu Qizhen heard Zhang Fu and Jing Yuan say this, and felt that there was indeed some truth, after all, there was not much drinking water exclusive to him now, and he had to save drinking as an emperor, not to mention the people below!
So Zhu Qizhen nodded and said, "Okay, I'll send a team of men and horses down to grab water!"
But......
British Gong, you don't want to go, let Jingyuan go!
Jingyuan, how many soldiers and horses do you need?
” "Minister......
Please tune 30,000!
Jing Yuan stared at Zhu Qizhen closely, and there was sincerity in his eyes, "Your Majesty, the minister wants to completely occupy the water source, otherwise even if the hole is opened, it will be blocked by the Warat people again!"
” "No!
That's too much!
Before Zhu Qizhen could speak, Wang Zhen vetoed it on the side, "The reason why Wara didn't dare to act rashly was because he was afraid that there were many people in Tumu Fort, and our cavalry was already small, so you brought down 30,000 people at once, in case the enemy army came to attack, where would you put Your Majesty's safety?"
” In fact, in the final analysis, it was just Wang Zhen himself who was afraid, and only by letting the remaining army of 100,000 or so surround him in the middle would he feel safe.
When Jing Yuan heard the words of a bastard like Wang Zhen, he was about to refute it, but who knew that Zhu Qizhen was the first to speak on the side, "Mr. is reasonable, Jing Yuan, I will give you 20,000 horses, it's not too little, right?"
As long as you can dig a hole so that our army has water to drink these days, it doesn't matter if the rest is blocked again!
In addition, if you find anyone who kills mules and horses for blood, you will be put to death!
” Zhang Fu originally wanted to help Ji Ling say a few words on the side, but when he heard Zhu Qizhen say this, he had no choice but to keep silent.
"Good!
20,000 is 20,000!
Jing Yuan gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, the minister will order troops from the left and right in the five military camps!"
” "Cheng, everything depends on you."
Zhu Qizhen sat quietly on the ground at this time, as if he wanted to save his physical strength as much as possible, "Be careful all the way!"
” "Yes!"
Jing Yuan hugged his fist at Zhu Qizhen, and turned around and left, but Wang Zhen looked at Jing Yuan's back, and felt a little uncomfortable after all, so he muttered in a low voice, "Actually, you don't necessarily have to go down to grab water, it rained a few days ago, in case there is another heavy rain in the past two days, can you still lack water to drink?"
” When Zhang Fu heard Wang Zhen say this, he was even more angry, so he retorted, "This is all in mid-August (note: note, it is the lunar calendar + Xiaoice River period), how can there be rain?"
Are you begging?
” Wang Zhen was stunned by Zhang Fu like this, and couldn't help but be stunned there, especially when he saw Zhang Fu's eyes full of anger, he subconsciously didn't dare to speak.
"How......
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Why are you so disrespectful to our family......"
Wang Zhen muttered silently in his heart, but forgot that he was just a minion in the first place.
Zhu Qizhen and Wang Zhen's side was quiet for the time being, but the horses and horses were all lieutenant Jingyuan finished the troops, and the posture looked very big.
Although the soldiers who were ordered knew that the task of this trip was very dangerous, most of them did not hesitate when they heard that they were going down to grab water, because they were indeed very thirsty, and even if they were killed by the Warats, it would be better than staying on it and dying of thirst!
Jing Yuan quickly took these soldiers down, but when he met his son Jing Sheng, he still couldn't help but admonish, "You and Ji Ling are here to keep an eye on it for a while, once there is water in the river, you can quickly send someone over to collect it, and you can get more points!"
” "Ji Ling, you have a lively eye, when the time comes, you will take up the garrison mission, when Jing Sheng sends someone to fetch water, you will form a formation next to you to defend, don't let the Warat people take the opportunity to sneak attack!"
"Yes!"
Jing Sheng and Ji Ling both clenched their fists, their eyes full of determination, "We will definitely do our best!"
” "Well done!"
Jing Yuan patted Jing Sheng and Ji Ling on the shoulders, and then sighed and said, "If you can't dig water on the civil fort, you can only rely on this small broken river below, which is really troublesome!"
” Jing Yuan said, and then turned his gaze to Jing Shengdao, "In the past few years, my father has not cared enough about you, you ......
Don't blame me!
” "Father!"
Jing Sheng didn't expect his father to say such a thing, so he couldn't help but hold his hand, "Don't say that, you......
You have to be careful!
” "That's it!
Not mother-in-law's mother's!
Jing Yuan pulled out his hand, and then rushed to the soldiers behind him and said, "All the soldiers listen to the order, and then follow me to form a formation along the Wuding River and canal, not to annihilate the enemy, just break through, and finally must rush to the place where the water source is cut off, and open a hole for it!"
