985 Yancheng, there are so many people who are sorry
Although Qin Jiyan was well prepared, he couldn't stop the people under Jing Yan's hands from risking their lives!
In order to successfully blow up the reservoir and buy the Jiangnan garrison time to escape, all the men under Jing Yan risked their lives, rushed forward with explosives in hand, and jumped into the reservoir...
Facing unnecessary attacks from opponents, no matter how strong the Feng Family Army arranged by Tang Yong was, it would be impossible to stop them all.
Eighteen of the eighteen reservoirs were destroyed by Jing Yan!
The reservoir was blown up, and the water stored in it spewed out without any obstruction. It was like a sealed demon reappearing in the world. The flood poured down and swallowed everything in an instant!
"It's not good, it's not good, the city is flooded, the city is flooded!"
"There's a flood, there's a flood!"
Within a quarter of an hour, villages closer to the reservoir were flooded.
"Quickly, hurry up and save people, hurry up and save people!"
"It's flooded, it's flooded!"
The water rushed down violently, raising the water level in the river. The dam could not bear the force and collapsed instantly, and the water became more and more turbulent...
It was as if a certain mechanism had been activated. Once the reservoir was blown up, the river collapsed. In just one meal, the water flooded Jiangnan City.
"Jing Yan, you...are a bastard!" Qin Jiyan was so angry that he almost went crazy after receiving the news.
He was said to be ruthless and ruthless, and he wiped out the Jiangnan officialdom overnight, but what was he compared to Jing Yan?
The water flooded Jiangnan City, but destroyed the entire Jiangnan!
Food, real estate...all were destroyed by floods. How will the people in Jiangnan live? How will they welcome the coming winter?
"Come here!" Qin Jiyan had a dark face and wanted to tear Jing Yan into pieces, but he didn't have time!
The top priority is to save people and divert water!
"Your Highness!" Tang Yong hurried over and knelt in front of Qin Jiyan as soon as he came in. "The general is incompetent, please punish him." Tang Yong wanted to die now. His Highness repeatedly told him to pay attention to the reservoir.
In the end, the people stationed in Jiangnan succeeded.
"Penalty? I don't have time to punish you now. Immediately bring people to control the flood and rescue the people in distress." The newly appointed officials from Jiangnan have not yet arrived, and there are not enough manpower. Qin Jiyan only has Feng Yuqian and a few people around him. At this time, he punished Tang
Yong, who will run errands for him?
"The general will obey your orders, please rest assured, the general will not disappoint His Highness." Tang Yong knew that this was an opportunity, an opportunity to atone for his sins. If he handled this matter well, his previous mistakes would be punished.
forgive.
Qin Jiyan knew that Tang Yong understood what he meant, so he said nothing more and motioned for him to retreat.
"Send a message to Jiao Xiangdi to see me." There is a flood in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are many things to do. Tang Yong can lead people to save people and fight the flood, but only Jiao Xiangdi can do the inventory of supplies and settle the people.
.
Jiao Xiangdi was defeated in Jiangnan before. If he can take this opportunity to rebuild Jiangnan, returning to the capital will be considered a qualification. In the future, even if he cannot climb to the position of junior assistant, with this performance, he can
Promoted to a second or third grade official with no problem.
Disaster is another kind of opportunity. Jiao Xiangdi understood this truth. Faced with the heavy burden Qin Jiyan pressed on him, Jiao Xiangdi did not flinch but was excited!
There were few manpower in Jiangnan, and the flood occurred suddenly. Qin Jiyan focused all his energy on fighting floods and disaster relief, and had no time to care about Jing Yan and the Jiangnan garrison. He only left 30,000 people to watch the Jiangnan garrison and watch the other side's actions.
Outside the city, inside the Jiangnan garrison camp.
As soon as the news came that the city was flooded, all the lieutenants were excited again, "Young Master, this is a great opportunity. While the Feng Family Army is busy rescuing people, we can attack it in one fell swoop and we will win!"
"Yes, yes, most of their troops have gone to provide disaster relief. If we attack at this time, we have a very good chance of winning."
"What a great opportunity. This time we will definitely be able to turn around and defeat the Feng Family Army."
…
More than 80% of the lieutenants present were in charge of the battle, but General Yan did not say a word. Jing Yan was not angry when he heard everyone's words. After everyone had finished speaking, he asked General Yan: "What do you think?"
When asked, General Yan naturally couldn't escape. After thinking for a moment, he said: "If we fight at this time, we will definitely win, but what will we get after winning?"
This is the most important and sharpest question.
Can we get this crop of mature grain, or can we get Jiangnan?
The entire south of the Yangtze River was flooded, and there was a vast ocean everywhere. What did they do to occupy the south of the Yangtze River?
"This, this..." As soon as General Yan said these words, the lieutenants who proposed the attack were dumbfounded.
Yes, if you fight hard and get nothing, why do they fight?
Someone with a quick mind asked: "Then what were we fighting with the Feng Family Army before? Why didn't we withdraw earlier?"
They can't occupy Jiangnan, so why are they still fighting the Feng Family Army here?
Just to find out the strength of the Feng Family Army? This reason is too far-fetched. If it is to increase combat experience, is it not worth sacrificing so many people?
As soon as the deputy general's question came out, everyone looked at Jing Yan: Why are they here fighting the Feng Family Army? What are they planning for this battle?
Jing Yan seemed to have expected it, and was not surprised at all when he heard the deputy general's question. Jing Yan did not answer directly, but asked: "If our soldiers and horses do not rebel in Jiangnan, will the imperial court send the Feng family army?"
"No." They retreated directly with their troops and horses. The imperial court would also send troops and horses to hunt them down, but it would never be the Feng Family Army because there was not enough time.
"You also know that it won't happen." Jing Yan looked at the soldiers with a mocking look and said sharply: "If the Feng family army won't come, will something happen to General Feng? If nothing happens to General Feng, will he be recalled from the border town by the court?
?The Feng Family Army and General Feng have been guarding the border city. Do you think that with our 150,000 troops, we can pass through the Feng Family Army’s defense in the border city and leave Da Qin smoothly?”
Whether it is to find out the strength of the Feng Family Army or to improve the combat experience of the Jiangnan garrison, these are all auxiliary. Jing Yan's ultimate goal is to transfer General Feng and the Feng Family Army stationed in the border town. Only in this way can he lead his men
people can cross the border without worrying about being chased by the Feng Family Army.
When the lieutenants heard this, they couldn't recover for a long time. There was a moment of silence in the camp. After the silence, the eyes of the lieutenants all shone brightly, "Young Master is wise!"
Although they lost a lot in the battle with the Feng Family Army here, if they were caught up by the Feng Family Army at the border, their losses would be even greater.
Because the border town is the territory of the Feng family, and there is nowhere for them to hide or escape.
Jing Yan accepted the praise from everyone without humility. He tapped the table and reminded everyone: "I have said everything that needs to be said. Pack your things and retreat at dawn."
As for the flood outside?
Jing Yan knew that he was sorry for the people of Jiangnan, but he had sorry for so many people, so what did it matter if he added the people of Jiangnan?
At dawn the next day, Jing Yan led his troops to retreat in a hurry.
Tang Yong came to report the news immediately and asked Qin Jiyan if he wanted to send troops to pursue him?
Qin Jiyan only thought for a moment and then said: "It's urgent to save the water. Send people to notify the state capitals and send troops to arrest the rebels."
It's better to leave the job of catching Jing Yan to others.
Tang Yong opened his mouth to persuade, but when he saw Qin Jiyan's cold face, he finally swallowed his words and turned around to carry out Qin Jiyan's order!
