Chapter 145: The Great Water is Ruthless, and People Are Affectionate

(Thanks to Brother Ke Lingfeng for their support.) )

On the banks of the Zhanghe River, a thousand feather forest troops waited for their generals, and their horses were backed by iron chains, which were connected between the tail of the horse and the shore of the river. As long as more than 1,000 riders are dragged together. The Zhanghe River will immediately burst hundreds of meters.

At that time, the surging river will wash along the ancient river on this side, drowning the Yellow Turban Army in the distance.

However, more than 1,000 horsemen were always waiting, waiting for the order of Cao Cao, the commander of the cavalry on the riverbank.

Cao Mengde, you want Qin Feng to lose his troops and generals, resulting in a sharp reduction in his merits after the victory, but we will also be implicated. Officer Yulin muttered on the side, exchanging glances with a few companions around him.

These Yulin guards have been stationed in the palace with constant conspiracies for many years, and they are all monkeys, how can they not know Cao Cao's thoughts. It's a pity that they still underestimated the extent of Cao Cao's black belly.

"Report to the ......, General Cao, more than ten horsemen of our army are running in the distance."

Cao Cao hesitated when he heard this.

After a few breaths, I saw more than ten riders coming. The chief of the leader rolled the saddle and dismounted, and bowed: "General Cao, pass on the order of General Qin, why don't you release the water." ”

Cao Cao looked at the Zhanghe River, and the corners of his eyes twitched, and he said lightly: "There are fishermen who have crossed here together, so they have not been able to release the water in time." ”

It was also this Cao Cao's good luck that a few small boats happened to row over, and seeing that there were soldiers and horses guarding this place, the fishermen on the boat hurriedly rowed vigorously in order to leave as soon as possible.

Seeing that Cao Cao's face was not good, Yu Linwei on the side was also eyeing him, and he was forced by the momentum for a while, and he didn't dare to say much.

After some delay, I saw dust in the distance, and it was obvious that a large group of people had arrived. As he got closer, Cao Cao's face became more and more ugly. Because he saw that the flag belonged to Huangfu Song. "So, how do I get out?"

The Yulin officer on the side couldn't hold his breath, stepped forward again, and whispered: "General, you have made a military order." Such disobedience to military orders has put us in such a position. There was a lot of grumbling in this man's words.

"Mengde, why don't you release the water?" Before Huangfu Song rode his horse to him, he shouted.

Cao Cao was gloomy and scary, staring fiercely at the Yulin Army officer beside him.

Seeing this, the officer took a step back in fear, "General...... ”

Cao Cao drew his sword without warning, and stabbed the officer in the heart with a single sword. shouted: "I let you listen to the sound of the cannon, but you are asleep, and now you have missed the fighter plane, and there is no ...... to kill." ”

"What!" Several officers next to him were taken aback, and they were stunned for a moment when they saw their companions fall to the ground and die.

Cao Cao took back his sword and shouted: "If you delay the fighter plane, we will all be punished, but the first offender will die, and you will not hurry up to break the embankment, is it possible, you also want to receive the crime of delaying the fighter plane?" ”

Black enough, ruthless enough! Several officers suddenly realized that they were used to seeing things in the palace such as unloading mills and killing donkeys, crossing rivers and demolishing bridges, but today's Cao Mengde's methods are the most despicable and vicious.

However, these officers still didn't want to take the capital crime of delaying the fighter, and since there were already dead people to take the blame, they chose to protect their lives after weighing it.

"Ride your horse, burst the levee."

"Quick, quick!"

Under the reprimand of several officers, a thousand Lin troops marched forward.

I heard a popping sound, and the chain hooked a section of weak embankment, and in a blink of an eye, there was a gap of thousands of bowls in the embankment of hundreds of meters, and the water column that spewed out was more than ten meters away.

The raging river has a place to vent, that is, in a breath, the remaining embankment is washed away, and the river roars out like a waterfall from the hundreds of meters of the embankment.

A thousand feathered forest troops hurriedly rushed to the high ground from the preset position, and then the rolling torrent rushed over, and the sound of the loud water made their hearts palpitate.

Cao Cao saw that Huangfu Song had arrived, hurriedly rode his horse over, and said hurriedly: "Old general, Fang Zhen, who delayed the fighter, has been killed by me, and the water of the Zhanghe River has broken smoothly. ”

When several officers of the Yulin Army behind him heard this, their faces were gloomy and frightening. This Cao Cao is really vicious! But they also know that everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, since Fang Zhen is dead, let him bear the blame.

Huangfu Song did not doubt that he had him, and when he saw that the Zhanghe River broke and went down the ancient river, as expected, it was bound to drown the Yellow Turban Army. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In this case, you and I will join forces and quickly go back to assist General Qin against the enemy." ”

"Yes! I don't know what happened to General Qin now? Cao Cao's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness and asked.

"When he came, General Qin had already divided his troops to resist the enemy, and then the Yellow Turban Army 100,000 attacked the hillside defense line. The situation is already very critical, and I hope that the water will arrive in time. Huangfu Song hurriedly said.

"General Qin is the first to take the lead?" Cao Cao subconsciously asked.

Huangfu Song glanced at Cao Cao suspiciously, and said: "What you said is right, General Qin is really the pillar of my Han Dynasty, taking the lead and killing the enemy in front of the battle." ”

"General Qin is really a model for our army, and Cao Cao admires it." Cao Cao bowed his hand to cover up the past.

Cao Cao joined forces with Huangfu Song and hurried back.

……

Qin Feng smiled on the hillside: "General Zhang Liang, do you see if this water is sufficient?" ”

"Retreat, order the whole army to retreat, retreat!" Zhang Liang saw the surging water in the distance, and shouted frantically, where could he still care about answering Qin Feng's question.

But it was too late, and the rolling water of the Zhanghe River had already formed a flood peak, which instantly submerged the Yellow Turban Army under the hillside.

Even if Qin Feng was on the hillside, he had to immediately order the soldiers to retreat. The flood peak eroded the distance of the mountain slope by nearly ten meters, and the momentum was so great that Qin Feng couldn't help but think of the flood in the ninety-eighth year of the later generations.

Just as he returned to the eroded shore, he saw the Yellow Turban soldiers floating up and down in the river. There were less than a thousand Yellow Turban soldiers, who were fortunately pushed by the flood to the temporarily formed bank of the river on the other side.

"Thankfully, the water came just in time." Xun Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Victory, victory!"

More than 20,000 surviving officers and soldiers raised their arms and chanted together.

"Gao Shun, order the whole army, pursue down the river, and strangle the surviving Yellow Turban Army. Leaving 5,000 soldiers and horses here, when the water calmed down, they swam across the river, marched left and right, and surrounded and killed the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army. Qin Feng finally had a smile on his face.

Under his orders, 20,000 officers and soldiers, with the joy of victory, began to strangle the Yellow Turban soldiers who had luckily landed along the riverbank.

The water and fire were ruthless, and under the monstrous water of the Zhanghe River, Zhang Liang's 100,000 army was wiped out.

Qin Feng pursued all the way, and the cathartic drinking water flowed in all directions, forming a series of tributary rivers, and then the big river went east to the waves, and eventually these tributaries would turn east and rejoin the Zhang River.

At the confluence of these tributaries, there were many high ground exposed on the water, and Zhang Liang and a dozen of his own soldiers climbed to one of them in embarrassment.

"Hurry up and rest, recover some strength, and we'll swim across the river." Zhang Liang said sadly. The 100,000-strong army was wiped out in ashes, and it had already struck him to the point of death. However, he wants to let the dozen or so people around him live, and let these sect members who have followed him for more than ten years live.

But two days and nights of all-out pursuit had already exhausted the soldiers. After experiencing the blow of this flood, they are already physically and mentally exhausted, and they will not be able to recover in a short time.

At this time, the crisis arose, and because of the small size of the raised ground, it was being eroded by the flowing river. After a short time, the feet of the pro-soldiers on the edge had begun to make contact with the river again.

These soldiers were all Zhang Liang's personal guards, who began with the Taiping Taoist mission and followed him for more than ten years. At this moment, they are discouraged in the center of successive strikes, but they still have a longing for Taiping Shijie. The only person who can help them fulfill this vision is Zhang Liang, their Rengong General.

"General, in the next life, before I serve the horse, I hope that by that time our Shijie of Taiping Dao has established ......." One of the outermost soldiers looked at the river at his feet with a resolute expression. He wants to let his general live, so that there will be hope for the peace in his heart.

The soldier jumped into the water, rolled over the surface of the water a few times, and then sank due to exhaustion.

"Po! No....... Zhang Liang stared at the scarlet eyes, stretched out his arm helplessly, and the surrounding soldiers hurriedly squeezed him.

"Xiaomu, we don't have the stamina anymore, and standing here will aggravate the erosion of the current. For the sake of Taipingdao, we used our lives to win time for the general to recover his strength. ”

"Good!" The young man named Xiaomu nodded resolutely.

The two jumped into the river together, without any accidents, without physical strength, they disappeared into the surging river in a blink of an eye.

"No jumping, no more jumping, we will live, we will live!" Zhang Liang watched his soldiers die for him, leaving tears in his eyes.

However, the relentless river is still eroding this small piece of ground. A few minutes later, three more soldiers still jumped.

"No, don't jump...... Don't jump! Zhang Liang's sad heart was no longer able to organize long sentences, he knelt on the ground helplessly, beating the ground and crying.

The remaining six soldiers glanced at each other and knelt on the ground together, "General, today we will follow General Tiangong." The general must avenge us and create a shijie ...... of my peace road. ”

Poof, poof, poof...... the six soldiers jumped into the river in order.

"No......." Zhang Liang stood alone on a one-meter radius of Zuihou, his eyes flowing with blood, heart-rending sorrow.

At this time, a lonely boat rowed over, Qin Feng stood at the bow of the boat, dragging the spear upside down, and the undried blood stains on the spear, drop by drop, dripped into the river water, and spread a bright red in the water. He looked at Zhang Liang not far away with an expressionless face, and Zhang Liang at this moment was like a wounded lone wolf.

Qin Feng saw six soldiers jumping into the river together just now, and he could guess some of the reasons, at this time, he looked at Zhang Liang's tragic appearance, and a trace of hesitation rose in his eyes.
