The rushing flood hit the walls of Didao City fiercely, like a wave hitting a boulder, making a huge sound that reached the sky. A wave came and exploded countless water splashes. At the same time, three miles outside the city,
The loud noise made when the Qiang réndà camp was destroyed by the flood was also heard.
In an instant, the entire city of Didao shook. Countless sleeping people were awakened by the loud noise. They hid in their houses in fear and secretly guessed what happened. "Could it be that the Qiang people launched another attack? No way.
, Such heavy rain, muddy roads and slippery walls have made it more than twice as difficult to attack the city. The Qiang people shouldn't be so stupid, right?"
This is the idea of some common people with military knowledge, but at this time they have no intention of going out to take a look. For these ordinary people living at the bottom of society, they naturally have their own way of surviving in troubled times.
At this time, on the city tower, Meng Wu and the Didao defenders, who had been preparing for a long time, naturally knew what was happening and were not moved at all. They quietly looked at the power of Heaven in front of them, which was like the Milky Way rolling back.
Waiting for the water to calm down.
"General, everything is ready!" As the water gradually slowed down, Zhang San walked to Meng Wu with a solemn expression and reported in a deep voice.
"Okay!" Meng Wu nodded, slowly took a step forward, stuck his head out of the arrow mouth, and carefully observed the sparkling water under the city wall with the help of the torch extended outside the city wall, and then again
I listened carefully to the waves coming from my ears.
He shouted, "Wait a little longer, the water is still strong. Even with our temporary raft made of wooden planks and bamboos, there is still a lot of risk. The Qiang people have no chance to make a comeback. There is no need to sacrifice the lives of our brothers."
Go on an adventure!"
After the words fell, Meng Hu stood up straight again, looking in the direction of the Qiang camp in the distance with a smile on his face. At this time, he seemed to be able to see countless Qiang people being submerged in the flood and struggling to survive in the majestic waves.
A miserable situation.
Time passed, and the hour passed in the blink of an eye. The sky gradually became brighter. Meng Wu lowered his head and glanced outside the city. The entire city outside had become a sea of water. There were sparkling waves everywhere. Countless big trees that were once towering were now
Only a few treetops emerged. Didao City was able to isolate the flood due to its higher terrain and the obstruction of the city wall. However, at this time, the water level that gradually flattened also reached the middle and upper part of the city wall.
"General, the water has calmed down, can we set off?" On top of the city tower, Zhang San and Liu Si'er, who were already eager to try, jumped out immediately and asked Meng Wu for orders with excited expressions.
"Let's get on the boat!" Without their help, Meng Wu was already eager to give it a try. Three thousand versus sixty thousand, even with the black-armored guards in Didao City, it was a full strength comparison of one to six, but now
The casualties were no more than a thousand,
Among them, less than 200 soldiers were actually killed, and they were all lost in the seven-day and seven-night battle to defend the city. It can be said that this battle is destined to leave its mark in the history of war, and what they have to do at this time is to set up a ship to go out.
Pick up the heads and complete the ending.
The water level outside the city was nearly ten feet high. After it calmed down, it was easy enough to hold up the raft that Meng Wu and others had temporarily tied up with wooden planks and bamboos. And the flood was coming out quickly and releasing quickly. After all, it was the water of the mountain road.
Although it has temporarily stopped due to the rocks, giant trees and the bottom of the depression, Didao is still a mountain road, and the accumulated water level will pour out from all directions in less than two days.
And even if there are still Qiang soldiers or tribal leader Qu Shuai who are lucky enough to survive, they will definitely be isolated by the floods in the high forest mountains and cliffs. It is the best time to rely on the navy to clear out the siege.
Meng Wu drove on the water outside the city with a pack of wolf fangs, forming a straight formation along the way, searching inch by inch towards the direction of the Qiang camp.
There are various floating objects, trees, clothes, and floating corpses of various animals everywhere on the water. As the fleet gradually approaches the position of the Qiang camp, more and more Qiang floating corpses gradually appear.
In front of Meng Wu and others.
"General!" Zhang San'er, who was on the same boat as Meng Wu in the fleet, immediately saw a Qiang soldier lying on a treetop above the water, panting, and quickly pointed it out to Meng Wu.
"Whoosh!"
He casually shot an arrow, and listening to the faint screams in his ears, Meng Wu shouted with an unchanging expression, "Each team dispersed, three ships in a group, leaving no surviving Qiang people alive."
"No!" The Langya generals took the order at the same time, and immediately dispersed one by one, and began to carefully search the treetops and mountains above the water.
At this time, on an isolated island in the higher mountains downstream of the Qiang camp, there were gathered more than ten Qiang people who had survived the disaster. Although they had lived in the water-scarce Liangzhou area since childhood, they had been hit by sudden floods.
, but there are still some Qiang people who managed to survive by virtue of their unfamiliar water properties and God's blessing, and escaped to this higher mountain.
"How could this happen?" The Qiang people who survived on the isolated island in the mountains were all staring at the water in front of them in despair. One of the burly Qiang people suddenly roared into the sky.
"Begging the clan leader to calm down, let's think about how to escape. Now all the clan members have been swept away by the flood, and those who survived are all trapped on these isolated ridges and giant trees like us. The Han army in Didao City
I will definitely not miss this opportunity. I believe they will attack by boat soon, and we will definitely die without a burial place." I don't know if it was because he was awakened from his daze by his roar, but in short, suddenly on the mountain and isolated island
A Qiang man's voice rang out.
"Then what do you think we should do?" The roaring big man was Qi Jiandu, the Qiang commander of the Xianling Department. Hearing the voice of the Qiang man next to him, he immediately turned his head and stared at the Qiang man who made the sound.
Although he was not afraid of death, Qi Jiandu, who was lucky enough to escape from the flood, did not want to die like that.
"This..." The Qiang man who spoke was stunned when he heard Qi Jiandu's rhetorical question. He could think that the Han army came to attack only because of the potential of life and death, but if he could really come up with a way,
It’s not like he doesn’t even have a name among the Qiang people.
He immediately said with a grimace to the Qiang people who had heard the conversation between the two and looked expectantly, "There are vast oceans in all directions at this time. Unless we have tools like ships or rafts, otherwise we can only wait here for the arrival of the Han army."
We won’t be found until the flood recedes.”
"Humph!" Hearing the answer, Qi Jiandu snorted coldly, but he also calmed down. When people are desperate, they will burst out with great potential. In the face of the imminent threat of death, Qi Jiandu however
It was rare that he thought of a way, his face lit up immediately, and he pointed at the distance.
A big tree that emerged from the water not far from the mountain island said, "There is a tree there. I also have a short knife with me. As long as we can cut off the thickest part, even if we can't make a raft, we can still hold it."
It would be better for him to escape down the water than to wait for death here."
