It was night, and a urgent message broke the silence.

"Report——"

The ongoing combat meeting was suspended.

Huang Lie narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?"

Although the messenger soldier was wearing a raincoat, there was still a steady stream of rainwater dripping from his bun. After a while, there were obvious water marks under his feet, which showed how heavy the rain was tonight. When he clasped his fists in reply,

, shortness of breath and disordered breathing.

"Leader, something bad has happened. The Miao River, the water in the Miao River has surged..." His face showed panic visible to the naked eye.

As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the tent.

Huang Lie even tightened his grip on Pingji's armrest.

Although he comes from a lower class, he has seen a lot over the years and can handle any situation. Huang Lie looked around at everyone calmly and said calmly: "Let's go and have a look."

A group of people put on raincoats and headed to the bank of the Miaojiang River.

Before he even got close, he heard the sound of rumbling water. As he got closer, the river surface was turbulent, and God sent strong winds and rain to help, making the Miaojiang River look particularly terrifying tonight. Huang Lie's eyes fell on the temporary water on the bank of the river. The original water level

It has been submerged by the river.

He asked the water captain responsible for observing the water rules.

"How much has it increased?"

The water captain replied: "It's already one foot and two inches."

When Huang Lie heard this number, the veins on his forehead jumped hard, and everyone else was also surprised: "In such a short time..."

This rate of water level rise is really abnormal.

At this time, someone thought of a possibility: "...could it be that the tyrant was obstructing this? After all, the national seal is in his hands."

Huang Lie said: "This guess is not impossible."

Regardless of whether this matter has something to do with Zheng Qiao or not, it has to do with it. It cannot be said that God is helping Zheng Qiao. It is not sooner or later, but the river is rising abnormally at this time, right? If the weather is in Zheng Qiao, then they are crusade against Zheng Qiao.

What's Joe's?

Huang Lie's words slightly calmed everyone's impetuous minds. They only addressed the symptoms but not the root cause. The entire army was well prepared for war and their morale was boosted. They were just waiting for the war to begin on the second day. If the troops were withdrawn due to the Miao River at this time or the confrontation continued, morale would be damaged.

Too big.

What's even worse is that they can't afford to delay!

Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted!

Therefore, we can only fight, not retreat!

Fight, how to fight?

Everyone looked at the mighty Miao River with gloomy eyes, and they could still feel the earthy smell coming towards their faces through the rain.

"...The river is turbulent, which is not conducive to our battle."

I don’t know who voiced everyone’s worries.

The turbulent water flow will inevitably cause the ship to bump violently. If the ships are connected with ropes, the immediate emergency can be solved, but the downwind direction is not a good opportunity for Zheng Qiao to set fire to it? In the days when they faced off against Zheng Qiao's soldiers and horses, they tested it a hundred and eighty times.

When they came into contact with the sheep attack in a small area, they used all kinds of provocation methods. They guarded this place with all their heart and prevented them from crossing the river and landing.

Once it starts, it's quite a headache.

Everyone hopes that the alliance leader can come up with an idea.

At this time, Kang Shi asked a sincere question and deliberately put Huang Lie on the fire: "Does the leader have a solution? If the army delays for one more day, the morale will be low..."

Zheng Qiao is in Ooshan County on the other side of the river.

Now that the fight has reached this point, no one can hide it anymore!

Huang Lie's expression was calm, but he glanced at Kang Shi from the dim angle of his vision. After a while, a long sigh escaped from his mouth: "There is a way, but it may be difficult to achieve with one person's strength...

…”

Everyone hurriedly asked what the solution was.

Huang Lie said: "The river is frozen."

If you cannot fight a water war, create the conditions for a land war.

Time was so tight, and it was so close to the flood season, so Huang Lie naturally prepared for the worst in advance. This whimsical plan was obtained from Wei Shou, the surrendered general. The Wei Shou family lived in the world of ice and snow, and the winter was long and cold.

, the summer is short and warm, and in the coldest time, the ice layer on the river can be as thick as three to five inches. Marching on the ice is not a problem.

It is unrealistic to freeze the entire Miao River. According to his idea, he only needs to freeze the nearby sections of the river for a short period of time. The thickness of the ice layer should be as thick as possible to ensure that it does not collapse during the battle. If the ice layer cannot hold up during the battle,

, and then use morale to turn the ship out.

Huang Lie's idea is not a bold one, but it is much safer than connecting ships. The most important thing is that most of the coalition soldiers and horses are not good at water. Compared with water warfare, land warfare is naturally more convenient. There is no better one at the moment.

Method substitution.

Kang Shi complained secretly in his heart.

Huang Lie's unfashionable idea is similar to his own lord's style. He thinks what others dare not think of, which is really bold.

However, this method has a fatal flaw.

Kang Shi just frowned slightly, but Huang Lie noticed it and asked him with a smile: "What's wrong with this method?"

All the coalition allies looked at Kang Shi.

Kang Shi was calm and composed: "I do have a worry."

Huang Lie said humbly: "Sir, please give me some advice."

“Won’t this move cause ice discharge downstream?”

This is what Kang Shi is more worried about.

The so-called "ice discharge" refers to "freezing floods". The blockage of the river channel causes the water level of the river to rise at an accelerated rate. If the drainage channel of the downstream river is narrow or has not been completely dredged, the downstream river may suffer. As soon as Kang Shi's problem came up, everyone was indifferent, except for the noisy sound of rain.

.

Huang Lie replied: "If this battle can determine the outcome, we will land ashore as quickly as possible. It can take as short as a few hours or as long as a day. The scene that Mr. Kang is worried about should not happen. If we are afraid again,

Feet, I don’t know when I will be able to kill the violent lord.”

All they had to do was tell Kang Shi openly, even if this move would really cause problems that he was worried about. Now that the overall situation was facing them, they had to make choices, and they couldn't give up just because of their scruples. They were hesitant about the first and last, but Zheng

Joe doesn't.

After finishing speaking, Kang Shi's face looked a little pale. I don't know if it was due to the cold wind, the moonlight, or because he was angry.

Gu Rendao: "We and the tyrant are always different."

Zheng Qiao did not put his life in his eyes and did whatever he wanted. How could they do this as a crusade against Zheng Qiao?

Huang Lie said: "It's naturally different."

Some people felt uncomfortable listening and immediately refuted: "What Governor Gu said is wrong. We ask for orders for the people and kill the tyrants in order to save the lives of the people and Hangzhou. It is inevitable to make some choices. This is,

Give up small profits to seek greater benefits.”

"This is very true."

Wu Xian did not express his position, but just watched Miaojiang in a trance, staying out of the matter, as if he was unaware of the intrigues of his allies around him.

Hearing this, Gu Ren wanted to speak but stopped.

Although Kang Shi was Shen Tang's temporary representative, he did not fully represent Shen Tang. Shen Tang's sneak attack on Cunshan also took away half of the elites, further weakening his voice among the Allies. Even if Gu Ren's side was added, the voice

The portion size is also light.

In the end, everyone adopted Huang Lie's suggestion.

The words and spirits of many scribes have the effect of affecting the environment, but if you want to freeze a section of the river, the power of their words and spirits can be imagined. It is difficult for just one scribe to do it, and it will naturally require other forces to deploy manpower.

Assistance. You wouldn’t know if you didn’t join in, but you’d be surprised to see how many people each team has put together. After that, it’s time to calculate the thickness of the ice and the literary spirit required to use the word spirit.

Put together and put together, it's completely enough.

It is worth mentioning that both Kang Shi and Gu Ren refused to go out, and the reasons were given before everyone expressed their dissatisfaction.

Kang Shi was very straightforward and lacked people.

Shen Tang took away all the scribes and staff who were coaxed by Niubi. Although Kang Shi still had a few subordinate officials who were also scribes, they were either too weak in cultivation or were in key positions. As the only commanding strategist in front of the formation, Kang Shi

You can never ignore your own family.

Gu Ren’s reasons are also very straightforward.

He only has two talented scribes under his command.

One is him and the other is his sixth brother.

The sixth brother is in charge of logistical support, and he is the lord. The other literary scholars who can’t do anything have insufficient literary reserves, so he won’t show off his shame. If everyone has any objections, Gu Ren can only shamelessly talk to Wu Xian

I borrowed someone once.
