Li Meng ran all the way up to the city gate. Using the light before sunset, he looked far into the distance. Apart from the camp that was beginning to take shape on the high ground in the north, he didn't see anything else.
"Isn't there a dam built? Where is it?" Li Meng asked.
Wang Fang glanced at Li Meng, frowned and said: "...just behind that high ground...many scouts were injured, and Fang found out about this..."
Cover it by building camps?
No wonder there are no traces here...
But will building dams be useful?
Li Meng suddenly remembered that it is said that there is something called a map, which can help to understand the geography of mountains and rivers. He quickly asked someone to find the map of this place from the warehouse in Su City, and then he couldn't wait to spread out the map drawn on it.
The map of Sucheng on the silk cloth...
The paper used to draw the map is a little yellowed, and it has obviously been aged for a while. Almost every county has a copy of this kind of thing, which includes some important mountains and rivers and important roads in the surrounding areas.
However, as a fine Chinese tradition, "understanding" is a very important skill.
Li Meng: "..."
Wang Fang: "..."
Li Meng looked at Wang Fang, and Wang Fang looked at Li Meng. Both of them had the same expression on their faces.
"...Is this Sucheng?" Li Meng pointed to the jagged box in the center of the map and said.
Wang Fang clicked on the small characters on the edge of the box, then clicked on the crooked pattern on the side and said: "... It should be... But what is this painting? Is it a mountain? There are growing trees near us.
A mountain like this? This is Luoshui, right? No, this should be the old straight road?"
Li Meng: "..."
The map is not big, but it must be on such a small paper. It must not only map out the geographical situation, but also show the painter's superb artistic processing ability. With this combination, there is no so-called map proportion.
Already...
The painter carefully used a combination of freehand brushwork and abstraction to outline a landscape painting near Sucheng. However, this wonderful painting art became a roadblock in front of Li Meng and Wang Fang.
Li Meng pointed the map up and down at the terrain outside the city, and then said: "...This, I say, you think it should be this side facing north...or this side..."
Wang Fang: "..."
Li Meng: "..."
The problem now is that although Li Meng and Wang Fang have the map in their hands, they are completely unable to match the terrain in front of them, and they do not know where the Fei Qian army is camping on the map.
…
Li Meng crumpled the map into a ball with a few angry moves, then threw it at his feet and said: "What the hell are you drawing! It's better for me to see it directly!"
But even though he said this, if Li Meng really wanted to see it, he might not be able to see it.
When a dam is built, the intercepted water will naturally flow to lower areas when the dam breaks. However, will it flow to Sucheng, will it cause damage to the city, and will it affect the troops in the city? These things can be seen with your eyes.
You can see it this way...
At least Li Meng won't.
Of course Wang Fang won’t either.
It is definitely not possible to ignore this matter, but it would be too rash to go out to attack or destroy like this. The problem now is that the two of them must not know how to do it, at least find a way to do it, otherwise how can they do it now?
Coping strategy?
Li Meng and Wang Fang both felt worried for a while...
At this time, Fei Qian didn't have so many worries. He handed over the matters in the barracks to Ma Yan and Zhao Yun, and he and Xu Shu and Xun Chen went to the place where the interception dam was built on the hillside.
Building a dam to intercept the Luoshui River was Xun Chen's plan. Sometimes Fei Qian had to admire these guys. They were really smart. After surveying the terrain of Su City, he was able to deduce corresponding solutions...
The key is that such a strategy is very difficult to crack because of its many links.
Fei Qian watched as the soldiers threw the felled trees, branches and branches, onto the wooden piles on the river bed, and then continued to throw stones and other materials into the middle of the river using the shelter of the tree branches, and the water flowed in
Under such circumstances, it gradually shrinks. Even if the scouts in Sucheng do not notice it, the turbid river water and the gradually decreasing water flow will attract their attention...
Of course, if the opponent is so stupid that he cannot even notice this, then there is really no cure.
Do you really want to flood Sucheng?
Hey hey hey...
How many cubes are needed?
Although Fei Qian is not in the civil engineering field, he still knows a little bit about this kind of thing. According to the current situation, it is actually impossible for Jinping's own soldiers to destroy Su City with water.
It's not impossible. To achieve that effect, the amount of water cubes stored must be large enough. However, such a large amount of water in turn requires the interception capability of the dam, so it is impossible to achieve this with only the troops on hand.
If there are tens of thousands of civilians to support such civil engineering work, it will also take a long time, and now Fei Qian does not want to waste too much time here in Sucheng.
Obviously, Su City is the first line of defense for the Xiliang soldiers, and it is the most important line of defense against Feiqian. After Su City, although there are cities, it is absolutely impossible to hoard as many as Su City.
Xiliang soldiers.
The military strength of Li Jue and Guo Si can be estimated. Even if they incorporate the original imperial troops and guards in Chang'an City, they cannot be used directly with confidence. Therefore, the Xiliang soldiers must still be the main defensive force.
So the current situation is that the Xiliang soldiers have dispersed all their original forces...
This created some opportunities for Fei Qian.
"Youruo, how long do you estimate it will take to build this dam?" Fei Qian asked.
Xun Chen said: "About three days."
Fei Qian nodded and said: "It's just time to let the war horses rest and regain their strength... Then I will lead the cavalry south the day after tomorrow?"
Xu Shu said: "In my opinion, it would be more appropriate for the monarch to leave in the early morning of the day after tomorrow, when it is still dark..."
Xun Chen thought for a while, nodded and said, "Yuan Zhiyuan is right."
Since the two counselors said this, Fei Qian had no objection, so he set a time and then said: "...Then the number of scouts should be reduced from time to time?"
Unexpectedly, Xun Chen and Xu Shu said almost at the same time: "No!"
Xun Chen smiled at Xu Shu and extended his hand to signal.
Xu Shu also slightly arched his hands towards Xun Chen, and then said to Fei Qian: "Your Majesty needs to order more efforts to suppress the Xiliang scouts...Things that are too easy to obtain are generally not cherished...
