In fact, as early as before, when he heard people mention the story that made Bao Zhengdu unsuccessful decades ago, Sun Tu felt that it was a little strange, this Sanssouci Cave located under Tokyo City was too strange, whether this underground network was set up by the Great Song Dynasty or people earlier, it would not be to facilitate those thieves who were traitors to hide and escape.

After a subsequent on-site inspection, Sun Tu finally saw the middle doorway, and concluded that in addition to sewage discharge, they also had a wonderful effect on reducing the pressure of the Bianhe River in the city. It was only because the city of Tokyo did not experience any floods in the next 100 years that it was not allowed to be opened.

So when he had to deal with the Pink Swallow gang this time, he thought of using this trick. By forcing them to follow the same path as they had been years ago, and then pouring them into the water of the Bianhe River, which was already overflowing this year, they could completely wipe out the dark forces that had plagued the city for many years without much effort.

Now, as the winch of annual maintenance and repair drives the floodgates to open, the turbid Bianhe water, which has been overloaded and is only blocked by the embankments on both sides, finally has a cathartic outlet, and suddenly the water flows like a galloping horse that comes out of the reins and rushes towards those gates, and follows the route that has been designed all the way down.

In just a short period of time, the river that was already almost at the top of the embankment had already shallow a lot, and it was still going down at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye, and Zhao Yan and the others were stunned for a while, and at the same time, they were a little apprehensive in their hearts, not knowing what kind of impact this sudden influx of water would have on the entire city of Tokyo.

In fact, they don't need to be so nervous, the predecessors have already fully considered the underground network ditch when they first designed it, how can an underground space that is enough for half of Tokyo City not be able to accommodate this little bit of river water? Of course, this sudden flood of the river was devastating for some of the people who are now hiding underground!

After each of them escaped from the entrance of the culvert to the low ground, the gang members of these Pink Swallows at all levels quickly gathered together in one place according to the previous agreement. Although this hurried escape seemed embarrassing, these people were not too depressed, especially when they saw that even the third master, the eighth master and other leaders were also present, they were even more confident-

"This time I was just caught off guard by the government, I didn't expect a small Kaifeng Mansion to dare to arrest people all over the city at all costs. But don't worry, after this period of time, we will have a way to drive out that Sun Tu, and then everyone will be able to return to the top. ”

"You don't have to worry about everything you eat and drink here, every night we will be sent food and water, even if you stay here for a month or two, it is not difficult."

The more than 300 Pink Swallow Gang here applauded, although the air here is a little worse and there is still a lot of dirt around, but it is much better to hide here than if you stay on it and may be caught by the government.

Just as these people had found a place to sit down and rest, and waited for dark, there was a sudden sound of rushing water outside, and when everyone looked curiously towards the dark ditch ahead, they only saw some water rushing towards this side.

"What is this? Why does the river suddenly rush in? Many people had doubts in their hearts and couldn't help but sound at each other.

"Recently, it has been raining for months, and the water of the Bianhe River has already been full, maybe some water has overflowed from the gate mouth."

Just when they thought it was a trivial matter, the sound of the water in front of them was getting louder and louder, and at the same time the water was growing stronger, and in a matter of moments, the water in the ditch where everyone had gathered was knee-deep, and the river was still rushing towards them.

"It's not good, it's the officers and soldiers who brought water in!" At this time, the third master, who was more flexible, had quickly understood, and hurriedly shouted: "Quick, everyone go to a high place, otherwise this place will be flooded by the river!" ”

As soon as they heard this, the more than 300 people panicked, quickly got up, and rushed to follow a few leaders to wade through the water and run along the ditch and channel road to the front.

Originally, these people were crowded together and looked a little disorderly, but now everyone is fighting for their lives, and the corridor is even more crowded, and the people behind them immediately knocked the people in front of them into a back, and at the same time, the person who led the way in front of him with a torch was also knocked into the water, and the torch was extinguished at once.

This made the whole scene in the corridor more and more chaotic, and many people screamed and went forward with all their might, not even caring about the companions under their feet, and directly trampled on the person. The person who was stepped on in the water naturally had to struggle to survive, so he reached out to hug the person who fell on his head, and suddenly fell down and screamed again and again.

"Don't mess around, all of them are groping forward against the wall!" The eighth master was almost dragged into the water, and as soon as he kicked one of the gang members away, he shouted loudly again. But in this noisy and echoing underground environment, his words could not reach the ears of many people at all, and everyone still squeezed forward desperately, as if some vicious and terrible beast was approaching behind them.

In fact, the power of the turbid waves of the river is really not under the ferocious beasts, and in the midst of these entanglements, the underground river has been gradually raised, and at this time it has reached the root of everyone's thighs, and the water has become more and more turbulent, so that many people have begun to stagger, and it is difficult to even stand firm, let alone run away from this low-lying place.

The government is really ruthless, this is to completely trap themselves and others in the Sanssouci Cave by flooding...... The third master secretly complained in his heart, they had thought that Kaifeng Mansion would send officials to chase them down, and even thought that there would be a large number of officials and soldiers coming down to chase and suppress them, and they had also prepared for it, but they didn't expect the government to come to this hand, which was clearly a desperate plan. In the face of such natural might, he could do nothing but keep shouting, and let the team follow closely and touch the wall to go high, in order to find a high ground to avoid the flood.

But before they could go far, a large stream of water came from the side, and it formed a two-sided attack with the constantly rushing river behind them, blocking both their front and back roads. It turned out that the officers and men of the sub-district division also acted in order to obey the order, and the upstream section opened the sluice gate first, and after discovering that the river water had indeed fallen, it was transmitted to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry in the middle reaches. When the officials there saw that it was really effective, they didn't care about anything else, and immediately ordered the sluice gates to be opened and the water released.

It just so happened that these thieves of the pink swallows also went down from the upstream, so they were blocked by the river water in the middle reaches. In the screams of these people, the river in the tunnel closed on both sides and quickly rose, completely engulfing a culvert and completely swallowing the people who were still struggling behind them into the water.

All of a sudden, the screams and exclamations were endless, and those who were already exhausted or unfamiliar with the water were at the end of their crossbows, and when they were swept away by the water flow from the side, many of them rushed away, and they didn't even have time to call for help.

At this time, the others were all unable to protect themselves, and they couldn't save people at all, so they could only desperately paddle towards the shallow water on the other side, flowing waist-deep river, and they didn't care whether it was high or low, they just thought about running for their lives.

But in this way, these hundreds of people quickly disintegrated, some of them were cool-headed and followed by the three masters and eight masters, and the others couldn't even tell the direction, and were completely trapped in this underground culvert flooded by the river......

And the remaining dozens of people who followed the third master and the eighth master to swim towards the nearest gate were also in a very dangerous situation. You must know that because of the narrow terrain here, the water is more turbulent than in the river, that is, the average good swimmer can only barely protect himself, and some of the slightly watery ones can only rely on human help. But as the water grew stronger, a single wave could sweep away several people, and the others could only watch their companions be swallowed up and disappear by this demonic flood.

But even in such an unfavorable situation, the third master and the eighth master still struggled to support, relying on their familiarity with the underground culvert network, they actually led the rest of their subordinates to a high point after some struggle. Although the river was still not shallow, at least they were able to make sure it was safe and swam down the river towards the nearest gate.

When they arrived at the gate, there were only about 20 of the original 300 people, and all of them were covered in water and shivering, just like the water ghosts in the river. You must know that it is the late autumn season, and the sun has not come out in the past month, so it is a little cool to walk on the street, let alone soak in the water for a long time.

Everyone didn't feel anything about being in danger just now, but now that the exit is in sight, many people are so cold that they bend their arms and their teeth are so cold that they start to fight. But even so, the third master, whose lower body was still soaked in the water, did not mean to go out of here immediately, but only reached out and groped under the water for a while, took out a piece of gravel and threw it out of the gate.

Everyone immediately understood that he was testing the movement outside, and maybe there were still officials and soldiers in ambush. But after the stone was thrown out and finally fell silent, it was still quiet outside, which made the others finally breathe a sigh of relief.

At that moment, under the leadership of the third master and the eighth master, he pulled out his body that was already frozen and stiffened from the water with difficulty, carefully drilled out of the gate more than half a person high, and then struggled to climb the stone fence of Hongqiao, and used all the strength to eat milk, so that he could return to the ground.

But just when they landed on the shore, before they could see their position clearly and let out a few sighs for the rest of their lives, suddenly a whistle sounded from the side, and then two fluffy sounds, and torches were lit one after another around them, illuminating the eyes of more than 20 people for a while.

After they covered their eyes with their hands and adapted to the sudden light in front of them, they were desperate to find that they and the others had fallen into the encirclement of hundreds of officers and soldiers......
