There was no thunderous roar in response to Xun You, only concise orders from each team leader.
They arranged suitable tasks for themselves without being assigned by Xun You. Groups of cavalry began to prepare for the construction of the dam in an orderly manner. Only the Xihe cavalry under Dewey was still at a loss.
"Ping Feng, you can lead the Xihe cavalry to cut down trees and carry wood."
"promise."
Nearly 30,000 cavalrymen turned into construction workers, and the dam construction site was in full swing. The war horses they brought played a big role. After the big trees were cut down, they were pulled and transported to the construction site by several horses, while the trees on the mountain were pulled and transported to the construction site.
The same goes for stones, and the usefulness of war horses is maximized.
The army worked tirelessly from dawn to dusk. In three days, the dam was finally almost repaired.
"Stop working temporarily."
Just when the dam was about to close, Xun You suddenly ordered his troops to stop working.
"Military advisor, why did you stop?"
Although he was surprised by the work efficiency of the Jizhou Army, now Xun You ordered a shutdown, which made Dewey a little confused.
"Pingfeng, do you think our dam is well built?"
Faced with Dewey's question, Xun You was not surprised.
"It's not bad."
Dewey glanced at the simple dam in front of him and gave it a score of eight in his heart.
"Such a simple dam to block the river is okay for a while, but if you want to block the river for three to five days, it is absolutely impossible with the amount of water in the Yellow River. Moreover, the amount of water downstream is already very small. If it goes too far, it will cause the enemy to attack
Be alert, my lord said that good strength will be used on the blade, so I will close the dam again at the right time."
Xun You smiled slightly and then looked into the distance.
"Military advisor, what should we do now?"
Zhao Yun also moved closer to Xun You, also looking into the distance.
"Have any enemies been found around Lin County?"
As soon as Xun You finished speaking, Zhao Yun understood what he meant.
"Zhao Yun will lead the scouts to sweep immediately. We will definitely sweep out the enemy's whereabouts."
Xun You nodded towards Zhao Yun.
"Military advisor, what should I do now?"
Dewey was also a little confused. Zhao Yun had already snatched him away while searching for traces of the enemy. Besides, it was the job of a general and a scout, so he might not be able to do it well if he was asked to do it.
"Ping Feng, take your people back to the county seat of Lin County immediately. I'm afraid these aliens will come up with some tricks. If someone really comes to deceive the city, just give me a trap to catch a turtle in a jar."
Xun You thought for a while and still felt that it was not safe, so he decided to send Dewey to Lin County.
"promise."
Zhao Yun and Du Wei took Xun You's order and set off with their troops. One crossed the river to the west, and the other headed straight for Lin County.
Under the "protection" of two thousand prairie cavalry, Jiang Shen ran wildly. Since Jiang Shen was too tired after more than ten days of running around, he took a short rest for an afternoon and arrived at Wu at noon on the fourth day.
For example, Fangdu.
Looking at the Yellow River's plummeting water volume, Jiang Shen couldn't help but be overjoyed, because the current water in the river was only about two meters, which meant that even if you didn't need a boat, you could still cross it by swimming alone.
Of course, there is no need to worry about war horses here, because horses are animals that can swim. The Yellow River in front of them has shrunk by at least half due to the sharp decrease in water volume. They are fully capable of covering this distance.
"General Boromin, God is helping me, God is helping me."
What happened in front of him in so many days made him the happiest. After all, if they borrowed food one day earlier, they would be able to rush to Shangdang one day earlier.
"Yes, God bless you."
Boluo Ming was also very happy, because looking at the current river surface, he probably didn't need to build a bridge.
"Then what are you waiting for? Rush to Lin County immediately."
"Everyone has it, cross the river."
After Boluo Min gave the order, some of the cavalry under his command dismounted and swam sideways, but more of them rode their horses directly into the Yellow River.
Jiang Shen is swimming here, but little do they know that their whereabouts have been discovered by Zhao Yun's hidden scouts all over Wubao.
"General, we found two thousand aliens swimming across the Yellow River."
The scout reported Jiang Shen's whereabouts to Zhao Yun.
"General, two thousand people are still swimming, you can kill them."
When the chief scout heard the scout's words, a cold murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"Song Ming, how do I usually teach you?"
Zhao Yun frowned.
"Please let me know, General."
Seeing Zhao Yun frowning, Song Ming immediately knew that he must have said something wrong.
"If this were the main force of the foreign race, I would definitely order an attack without hesitation. But this is only two thousand people, and at best it is the enemy's vanguard. If we attack now, it won't alert the enemy. By then, the enemy's main force will be gone.
It ruined the military advisor’s plan.”
After finishing speaking, Zhao Yun looked at Song Ming with wide eyes.
Song Ming's face now seemed to have fallen into a dye vat, turning red, white, and blue, all in various colors.
"Song Ming, your investigative skills are excellent and you are considered the top among the scouts. This is why I promoted you to the rank of scout chief. However, the most important thing for a scout is to be steady and not reckless. This is the last time. If there is another time,
Next time, I will kill you without mercy."
Zhao Yun finally patted Song Ming on the shoulder and said his last words to him with a cold face.
"Song Ming understands that if he dares to do it again, I am willing to die to apologize."
Song Ming knelt on one knee, his face full of determination,
"I believe you, now I know what to do."
Zhao Yun helped Song Ming up and patted the dust off his body.
"I will go immediately to detect the traces of their main force."
Song Ming was still very smart. Since the vanguard appeared, the main force must not be far from here. What they were looking for was the enemy's main force.
"Well, then organize the troops and let's go."
"promise."
Zhao Yun led his scouts around Ruifangdu and headed towards their rear.
"Lord Boluo Ming, we'd better take a rest now and head to Lin County in the evening."
Hearing Jiang Shen's words, Bo Luo Ming was stunned and couldn't figure out what he meant.
"Sir, although I am taking the lead this time, you are all Hun cavalry after all. If you are seen by people in Lin County, you will most likely not be able to borrow food and grass. At night, the lights are dim and it is difficult for them to distinguish.
It will be easier to act if you do.”
Jiang Shen glanced at Boluo Ming and then at the cavalry behind him, and expressed his thoughts.
"Well, what you said makes some sense. Let's take a rest and work on it at night."
"Um."
At night, Jiang Shen led two thousand Xiongnu cavalry and rushed all the way to the foot of Lin County.
"You guys should stay a little further away. Lord Boromin can just accompany me."
"No, Bamboo Valley, take the brothers to change their clothes."
When Bo Luo Ming heard Jiang Shen's words, he knew what Jiang Shen meant.
