Chapter 378: Leave No Mouth Alive

So to speak! It's not just here that the water meter is needed, the Tang Army is also using it! And in the upper reaches of the camp of the 120,000 army, they secretly went to build a dam.

General Cheng's men were storing water below the camp, and the Tang army was storing water above, and the entire flow of the Datong River was cut off by these two places, so the scribes in the army did not see anything abnormal in the water of the Datong River in the past two days.

Gao Huanquan now has a lot of hatred for Xuan Shijing, no one in the army mentioned the matter of the Tang army building a dam upstream to store water, maybe the generals of the Tang army knew about it, but they didn't tell themselves, even when they just left the Tang camp, no one stopped them, it seems that he guessed correctly, he Xuan Shijing, didn't want to let himself survive this war at all.

Before many people could think about it, the upstream dam was blown up, and the Datong River, which was ready to go, rushed down, rushing straight to both banks downstream.

More than 1,000 Tang troops continued to strengthen the embankment in the upper reaches, and in six days, the number of felled was not only used to strengthen the camp, but more of them were quietly transported to the upper reaches at night.

In the blink of an eye, the 150,000-strong army was all in vain, and even if they rode horses to both sides, they could not escape the end of being flooded.

The Tang army camp had been prepared, when the water poured down, even the embankment built by the Goguryeo people in the upper reaches was washed away, and the impact of the water flow on the 150,000 people was devastating, even if there were many people, under the power of nature, they all seemed very small, and the Tang army waited at the gate of the camp after the camp was properly arranged, and the water hit and washed down many Goguryeo soldiers on the upstream side.

Now all the Tang army has to do is to wave the butcher's knife and kill the Goguryeo soldiers who are struggling in the water, leaving no mouth alive.

More and more Goguryeo soldiers were found in the Tang army camp, some Goguryeo soldiers were struggling in the water, and after seeing the raft downstream, it was like seeing a life-saving straw, and they wanted to grab it, but when they came to it, they were greeted by the sharp long knives of the Tang army.

The water flow gradually stabilized, and the water at the entrance of the Tang Army camp had been dyed bright red with blood, constantly soaking in all directions, becoming more and more vivid and intense.

The Tang soldiers cut the ropes that tied the raft and paddled the raft to search around, some of them went upstream, some of them went downstream.

The gate of the camp was still closed, and when the water rushed over, many things under the wooden frame of the camp were also soaked in water, but they were not important things, and the most important grain and grass were preserved, and the Tang army had no worries at all.

"As soon as this flood broke out, the people on both sides of the lower reaches of the Datong River also suffered." Chang Le said: "The dealer in this field is about to be harvested, and it is washed away by the flood, and it has become a bubble, even if this Goguryeo is taken down, there will be a famine this year." ”

War disaster and famine, this year's Goguryeo may be the saddest year, the Tang Dynasty took Goguryeo, and wanted to re-govern it, how difficult it was.

The cultivated land on both sides of the Datong River is the most fertile land in Goguryeo, and now even the two banks of the Datong River have been destroyed by a water plan of the Tang army.......

"Let's go, let's get out of the camp and have a look." Xuan Shijing said.

Now the camp of the big camp cannot be reached, and the only way to go down from the camp wall is to use a ladder.

There were soldiers holding the raft below to answer, and Xuan Shijing and Chang Le boarded the raft together.

"Go upstream." Xuan Shijing said.

"Yes." The raft floated on the water for more than half an hour, and there were many dead bodies along the way, but they still did not reach the camp of the Goguryeo soldiers, and I am afraid that when they got there, the water would also recede.

As soon as the flood broke out, the original 120,000 Goguryeo soldiers' barracks had been washed away by the flood, and there were many corpses of Goguryeo soldiers floating in the camp.

Many people in the upper reaches were washed down, and if they were lucky, they grabbed a floating object in the continuous camp and were able to survive, but even if they survived, they had no combat power.

Xuan Shijing gave the order to exterminate the mouth, so no matter how hard those Goguryeo soldiers begged, the soldiers of the Tang army would not show mercy.

"Go to Gao Huanquan, you have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death." Xuan Shijing said to the soldiers around him.

"Yes."

Defected before the battle, and it was a loss to what he could do.

Gao Huanquan led the troops out of the camp to fight against the enemy, Xuan Shijing sent a scout to follow behind, Gao Huanquan and the other party's general talked for a long time in front of the battle, the scout found that something was wrong, and hurriedly rode a fast horse towards his own camp and galloped wildly, but halfway to the road, before he arrived at the camp, he heard a signal in the camp, and the scout slashed a knife on the horse's buttocks, the horse was in pain, spread its hooves and began to gallop.

This is a race against Lord Hades.

When he was still some distance from the camp, the scout saw the raft in his camp, jumped off his horse, found the nearest raft, and climbed on.

Tang Jun on the raft saw that it was his brother, and hurriedly pulled the person up and stopped him, and the water rushed down in an instant.

Fortunately, the Tang army has a lot of rafts, and the arrangement is far from the camp, otherwise the scout news would have been obtained, but there would be no life to send back.

This is also a great calamity, and if you don't die, you will have a blessing.

The flood rushed over, and the scout informed Xuan Shijing of the news.

Fang Shu stood on the raft, and the four people next to him rowed the raft hard, approaching Xuan Shijing's side.

"Master Hou, most of the Goguryeo soldiers in the upper reaches have been drowned, and not many have survived, maybe there are still many people in his camp, after all, there are many floating objects in the barracks, as long as they are caught, they will not be drowned." Fang Shu said.

"Pass the order, continue to walk upstream to the camp, and see one by one and destroy the other." Xuan Shijing said: "It is estimated that before we get to their camp, the water will retreat, and after the water retreats, they all go down to the raft to search, the point is to find Gao Huanquan and the commander of the other party." ”

"Yes!" Fang Shu responded.

An hour and a half later, the water completely receded, the Tang army also had a lot of losses in this battle, but not much, the war horses lost two percent, all of them were washed away by the water, the rest were in the camp, the camp wall of the camp effectively blocked the momentum of the water, so the things in the camp were not washed away, most of the war horses were just soaked in the water and only exposed a horse's back.
