The ghost fetus was sitting in the yard, with the sky full of stars above his head.
Feng Erniang walked up quickly and said: "Master, Long Chen has set up an iron cable at the mouth of the lake, connecting the mountains on the east and west sides."
Long Chen was causing trouble in Hukou, and Feng Erniang immediately reported it when she found out.
Guite felt a little strange and asked: "Isn't the iron rope used to connect warships? How come it connects two mountains?"
Feng Erniang said before that the iron rope was used to connect the warships, but now it is not the case. The ghost fetus feels bad.
Feng Erniang immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "My subordinates are incompetent and the information is wrong. Long Chen is still connecting the iron cables. I don't know what the purpose is."
Guitai thought for a while and said: "Find Li Chengdao and Yu Ziming."
This time, Gui Fei didn't find any tricks. This old guy has no use except lust.
In the past, Xuan Jizi could work as a dog-headed military advisor next to Li Chengdao by virtue of his martial arts skills.
Now against Long Chen, Xuanjizi seems to be not enough.
Feng Erniang immediately gave the order, and Li Chengdao and Yu Ziming came in and knelt down at the same time.
"Meet the Holy Son."
Guitai said: "That guy Long Chen used an iron rope to connect the two sides of the lake at the mouth of the lake. What do you think he wants?"
Li Chengdao and Li Chengdao had heard that Long Chen was building a warship before, but they had not heard anything about the iron ropes.
Therefore, after Guitai asked, both of them were a little confused.
"this"
Yu Ziming was confused and Li Chengdao was speechless. He didn't know what Long Chen meant.
"Are you all mute?"
Seeing that the two of them were silent, Guitai's expression suddenly changed and he was very unhappy.
Li Chengdao replied: "The water in Hukou is turbulent. To connect the two mountains, this guy may want to build an iron cable bridge."
He could only think of this.
Guitai made a mental calculation and felt that it shouldn't be done.
Spending so much effort just to build a chain bridge?
Yu Ziming said: "Once the iron cable bridge is completed, Long Chen can quickly add troops to intercept the reinforcements from Zhongwu City, which is faster than taking a boat."
The ghost fetus still feels wrong.
"Building an iron cable bridge at the mouth of the lake is the most difficult place to build because of the strong currents. Why did he choose that place?"
Guite thought about it again and again, but couldn't figure out the reason.
"Keep an eye on him and see what he wants to do!"
The ghost has no choice but to send people to watch him to death. Other than that, he has no other choice.
Feng Erniang immediately sent someone to follow him.
Xianhe City.
Yingfeng entered the room with Long Chen's letter and presented it to the empress.
Opening the letter, the Empress read it and nodded: "Okay, this guy really has a way!"
Yingfeng also sighed: "The water at the mouth of the lake is too fast, with all kinds of whirlpools and undercurrents. King Wu can complete the iron cable across the river, which is really impressive."
The empress said happily: "Having blocked the entrance of the lake, things will be easier to handle later on. Let all the troops and horses be ready, and the heavy rain will come."
Yingfeng immediately sent orders to all ministries.
To the west of the lake.
An old and dilapidated fishing boat slowly came over and stopped not far from Long's position. An old fisherman on the boat was watching.
Looking at the iron rope across the river, the old fisherman had a complicated expression.
He heard about the Iron Cable Crossing the River in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty yesterday, and the old fisherman immediately remembered his conversation with Long Chen.
He suspected that the young man he met that night was not from Nanliang, but King Wu of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
So, the old fisherman rocked the broken boat to the southwest.
"Old man, long time no see."
Long Chen suddenly appeared on the shore, followed by Gan Zhen and Ni Linjun. The old fisherman was startled and said hurriedly: "The common people are paying homage to you, the common people are just passing by."
The old fisherman was afraid that Long Chen would kill someone and silence him, so he regretted that he shouldn't have come here to watch the fun.
Long Chen smiled and said: "Thank you for your advice, old man. After this battle, I will be very grateful."
Sure enough, the person in front of him was King Wu of Zhou Dynasty. The old man wanted to throw himself into the water to escape.
Long Chen saw the old man's panic and said with a smile: "Old man, there is no need to panic. I am not the kind of person who crosses rivers, demolishes bridges, kills people and silences others. Seeing that it is going to rain, please ask the old man to stay in the army for a few days."
Gan Zhen and others immediately carried the old fisherman ashore. The old fisherman was so frightened that his face turned pale.
Long Chen comforted you with kind words: "I didn't lie to you, don't panic, if you want to kill, kill now, why bother beating around the bush."
"When the battle is over, I will thank you deeply."
The old fisherman did not dare to speak, so he had to follow Gan Zhen.
Long Chen doesn't want to kill people to silence him, but he also needs to prevent this old man from snitching.
If Gui Fei knew about it, he would destroy the iron rope at all costs, and Long Chen's plan would be in vain.
Back at the military camp, Long Chen stayed in a cave.
Long Chen didn't leave because he was worried that the ghost would destroy the iron rope.
The southeast wind was blowing, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and a heavy rain was about to come.
On Linhu City.
Yin Shan, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, looked at the flickering thunder and lightning in the sky and said with some joy: "The rainy season is coming soon, Long Chen can rest for a while."
Yu Ziming, Minister of the Ministry of War, was beside him and asked: "How can we see it?"
Yin Shan, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, said: "If the heavy rain doesn't stop, Long Chen won't be able to send troops, so there's no need to worry."
Yin Shan has never fought in a battle or been on a battlefield. He is afraid of the current battle situation.
I thought that Gui Fei was invincible, but I didn't expect that he was seriously injured by Long Chen and dared not go out to fight. The situation was very bad.
Yu Ziming looked at the sky covered with dark clouds, nodded slightly and said, "That's right, the rainy season is coming, so we can rest for a while."
On the southwest bank of the lake, Long Chen was sitting cross-legged in a cave. The weather before the rainstorm was very sultry, especially in the cave.
The heat was unbearable, so Long Chen got up and went outside.
Standing outside, a cool breeze blew, heavy raindrops began to fall, and there was lightning and thunder in the sky.
The heavy rain finally started.
Long Chen returned to the entrance of the cave and watched the raindrops falling like broken beads.
Gan Zhen woke up from his dream, stood up and looked at the heavy rain outside, and said happily: "It's raining!"
Xianhe City.
The empress was reviewing memorials in her room. When the heavy rain fell, the empress put down her ink pen and stood at the door, reaching out to catch the raindrops.
“It finally started”
The heavy rain came as promised, and Long Chen's plan could be implemented.
The heavy rain continued, and by midnight of the next day, the sky was still dark and heavy, making people breathless.
It was as if a hole had been opened in the sky, and the water of the Milky Way was flowing down.
In Linhu City, Guitai looked at the heavy rain with doubts in his heart. He was still wondering what Long Chen was doing with the iron rope.
"Do you want to flood?"
The idea of flooding the city flashed across his mind, but Gui Fei immediately rejected the idea.
Feng Erniang said sideways: "Linhu City has been here for hundreds of years. The lake water rises and falls, but I have never heard of the city being submerged."
Feng Erniang knew a little about the history of Linhu City, but she had never heard that Linhu City had been flooded.
Guite also thought it was impossible, and shook his head and said, "I must be overthinking it. It's raining heavily, and the wood that Long Chen cut down will be washed away."
Feng Erniang echoed: "My subordinates also think so. Without giant trees, it would be impossible for him to build a warship."
Guitai said coldly: "Just wait, it's rare for this guy to calm down."
Zhong Gui was also in the city watching the heavy rain outside. He closed the doors and windows of his room.
"Your Majesty, it's raining really hard. I haven't seen such heavy rain in the past years."
Zhong Gui wiped the wet tables and chairs.
Li Chengdao looked at the heavy rain outside and murmured to himself: "Iron rope warship"
Li Chengdao heard about Long Chen's stay in the southwest of Linhu.
At first, like Gui Fei, he couldn't figure out what Long Chen wanted to do.
When the heavy rain fell, Li Chengdao seemed to understand.
