Chapter 72: Yan Liang Flooded (Part 2)

The Hutuo River originated in Shanxi, flowed southwest between Hengshan and Wutai Mountain, flowed eastward to the Bian River, and merged into the Ziya River in Hebei Province and the Wuyang River, and then entered the sea. Historically, the name of the Hutuo River was varied. The Book of Rites was called "Evil Chi" or "Huo Chi", and the Zhou Li was also called "Huchi". It was called "Hulun River" during the Warring States Period and "Huchi River" in the pre-Qin period. It was not until the Eastern Han Dynasty that the Hutuo River had its current name.

After the Hutuo River flows out of Shanxi, Wuji County is an area where the Hutuo River flows through.

Zhoujiazhuang, a valley to the south!

This place is the area where the Hutuo River flows through. The terrain is high and the water flows are relatively turbulent, while the road is passing by at the foot of the mountain. There are hundreds of soldiers in the valley, constantly busy. A handsome young man wearing a white robe and thin body is directing his soldiers to intercept the river with sandbags. Rows of sandbags pile up, the river is blocked, and the river water is getting higher and higher.

The young man is Guo Jia. His task is to build a dike to block the river water, and then wait for the opportunity to break the dike and release the water.

Guo Jia glanced at the sun in the sky and asked, "Where is the lord?"

The responsible garrison replied: "Report to the military advisor, the lord led his army to lead Yan Liang to Zhoujiazhuang, but no news has been heard."

Guo Jia nodded and ordered: "Always pay attention to the situation."

"Abide by the order!"

The town was busy growing up, while Guo Jia looked at the dam that was rising in front of him, and an arc appeared on the corner of his mouth.

This time, I will win.

Time passed, the sun set, and the sky gradually became late. After the sun set, Guo Jia and Wang Lei had no news yet, and he became a little anxious. He sent someone to inquire about the situation and learned that Wang Lei and Yan Liang's army were confronting each other across the river bank and had no movement for the time being, so his heart stabilized and knew that he had to wait for a while.

After nightfall, the autumn wind was cold, Guo Jia was wearing a cloak and closed his eyes in the valley to rest.

Late at night, a rustling sound came.

Under the flames, Wang Lei came back. Wang Lei came to Guo Jia's side and hurriedly said, "Fengxiao, all our soldiers at the foot of the mountain have been evacuated. Yan Liang and us were fighting each other on both sides of the river bank. If we left, Yan Liang would definitely chase the river and it would be difficult to achieve the best effect. It is late at night, and the soldiers under his command are sleeping, and it is dark, and he doesn't know if we quietly evacuate. Everything is ready and the dam can be broken."

"good!!"

Guo Jia smiled strongly.

He waved his hand and shouted loudly: "Let the water go!"

In an instant, the soldiers immediately broke the dam.

After a moment, the gathering river water broke through the river embankment. A rumbling sound came out, and the rolling river water rushed out, heading straight to Yan Liang's army. Yan Liang heard the river water rushing and knew that he had fallen into a trap. Before he could react with his soldiers, the river water arrived in a flash, and the big water rushed out, and Yan Liang was washed out by the river water.

Wen Chou was very anxious and shouted quickly, but he was unable to protect himself and was washed away by the flood in an instant. The rest of the soldiers resting on the river beach were sleepy and had no time to react, and were flooded by the river.

The water flooded the river beach, the water was too fast and too big, and the roads on both sides of the river beach were flooded by heavy water.

Yan Liang's army was wiped out by tens of thousands of troops.

Small boats sailed down from the upstream, stoking to kill the enemy soldiers who fell into the water. The killing lasted from late night until dawn. After dawn, the sun was noon, and the killing stopped. All the captured soldiers were controlled.

Temporary camp, central army tent.

Wang Lei and his generals gathered together, and everyone was smiling happily.

With dark circles in his eyes, Guan Gu reported: "Lord, in this battle, he killed 2,55 enemies, 4,600 prisoners, and more than 3,000 people fled, but failed to win. This battle was a complete victory."

"good!"

Wang Lei stroked his hands and said with a smile: "This battle is a complete victory, all depends on the planning of filial piety. If we don't give advice, we can only fight with Yan Liang, and the victory or defeat is unknown."

Yu Du nodded and said, "The military advisor's plan is amazing!"

Guo Jia shook his head gently, very modest.

Wang Lei's eyes rolled and asked, "Yan Liang and Wen Chou were defeated, were these two people arrested?" Wang Lei also admired Yan Liang and Wen Chou. Although their martial arts are not the best, they can undoubtedly serve as powerful generals who are rushing to the formation.

Dian Wei shook his head gently and sighed: "Lord, when the soldiers investigated the prisoners, they only found Yan Liang, but not Wen Chou. It is possible that they escaped or they may be drowned..."

“Bring it up!”

Wang Lei was not disappointed, and it was a blessing to be able to catch one.

The order was issued, and the soldiers immediately brought the person up.

Soon, Yan Liang was tied up and brought to the central army's tent. He held his head up and waist up, and stood in the tent. Even though the soldiers pressed Yan Liang's shoulders and wanted Yan Liang to kneel down, Yan Liang would rather die than kneel down. Seeing that the soldiers were about to move, Wang Lei waved his hand to let the soldiers retreat, and said with a smile: "General Yan, we are meeting again."

"Hmph~~"

Yan Liang snorted, his eyes full of disdain.

Yan Liang's expression angered Dian Wei. He stood up, but heard Wang Lei say, "Sit down!"

Dian Wei was unwilling to sit down, staring at Yan Liang with wide eyes, with a strong murderous intent. Yan Liang seemed to have not seen it, and looked up around, but he just didn't want to look at Wang Lei.

Wang Lei looked calm and said, "General Yan, you..."

As soon as he said that, Yan Liang interrupted, "Wang Lei, it is absolutely impossible to make me surrender. How did you answer me at the beginning, and now I will answer you. If you want to kill and cut, you will be punished."

Wang Lei choked and looked embarrassed.

Dian Wei said impatiently: "Lord, this kid won't surrender, kill me."

"bring it on!"

Yan Liang was stammering his neck, making a strong sense.

Guo Jia waved his hand and said, "Come on, take General Yan down and serve him very well, don't be disrespectful." The soldier took Yan Liang down again. Seeing that Guo Jia was free and safe, Wang Lei smiled and said, "Wang Xiao, what's the clever plan to take Yan Liang down?"

Guo Jia replied: "It is actually very simple for the lord to conquer Yan Liang. People like Yan Liang have a simple mind. It is difficult to change if they make up their minds and be loyal to Yuan Shao. If you want to surrender, the only way is to force him to a desperate situation and force him to surrender. The lord can send someone to Nanpi County to take Yan Liang's family over, and promote Yan Liang's surrender. In this way, Yan Liang will surrender even if he does not surrender."

"It's amazing!"

Wang Lei's eyes lit up and he gave a thumbs up and praised him.

Dian Wei murmured in his heart, scholars are too bad, and they are full of bad water. Yan Liang is also a tough guy, but after Guo Jia's calculations, he jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it clearly and could only surrender.

Yu Du and Guan Gu's eyes were flashing with little stars, full of admiration.

Guo Jia chuckled and said, "Lord, what you need to consider now is reporting the results of Wuji County and handling the matter of prisoners. The five thousand prisoners are only five thousand mouths, which is a huge burden!"

After hearing this, Wang Lei immediately had a bitter face.
Chapter completed!
