Chapter 2192: A plan within a plan, flooding Daxia
Ichikiel said with lingering fear: "Fortunately, the two old generals reminded me, otherwise, if I fell from here, I would be dead."
General Zhao said, "Do you remember yesterday? I suspect that this trap they set was so obvious, it might be a trick within a trick!"
Hearing this, General Sun also looked around vigilantly.
"Now it seems that we can only go past it."
"Be careful!"
Ichikiel reined in his horse and turned around, "I'll be the vanguard!"
He took the lead and rushed in from the nearby forest.
There is still sunlight on the mountain path, but in the forest, the sunlight is blocked by the tall trees and the light appears a little dim.
Ezekiel was not afraid of the darkness and moved forward bravely.
At this moment, countless arrows flew out of the forest.
Because the light was dim, when the arrow flew out, they could only hear the sound of the wind and could not see where the arrow came from.
"what!"
One after another, screams rang out in the mountains and forests.
Countless soldiers began to panic.
The shadows of enemies were jumping around everywhere, as if there were thousands of troops roaming in the mountains and forests, making them panic.
General Zhao shouted, "General Ichikiel, let's withdraw! We can't fight anymore!"
The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, so we can charge in head-on, but the losses will be great.
After Ichikiel suffered a loss and was reprimanded by Qin Yun yesterday, he immediately ordered his troops to retreat after hearing General Zhao's words.
Soon, the 150,000-strong army retreated back to the mountain road.
Fortunately, the retreat was quick this time and no major losses were caused.
"What should we do now?"
Ichikiel rushed the fastest and was hit by an arrow in the arm.
General Sun said: "There is no way. There is a trap in the middle of the road, and the roads on both sides are blocked. We can't get through!"
Izekiel suddenly pulled out the arrow from his arm and broke it without frowning from beginning to end.
"In that case, how about we charge again?" said Ichikiel.
"No!" General Zhao shook his head hastily. "The enemy may have a trick up their sleeve. If we rush in rashly, we'll just be sending ourselves to die!"
While the three were discussing, a messenger ran over.
"Your Majesty asks you, why are you standing still?"
General Zhao and his two companions quickly recounted the difficulties they had encountered.
The messenger quickly returned to Qin Yun and repeated the situation on Ichikiel's side.
Qin Yun waved his hand with unparalleled domineering power: "Since the other party is willing to hide in the dark and act like a sinister villain..."
"Then cut down the tree!"
"Let's see how they can hide!"
Everyone was surprised at Qin Yun's courage.
The messenger hurried to reply.
After hearing the messenger's words, Ichikiel's eyes lit up: "Your Majesty is too brave, chop down trees when you see them!"
General Zhao and General Sun nodded repeatedly: "This is a good idea."
"We don't need to cut down too many trees. We just need to find a passable area on the edge of the road!"
Izekiel nodded, "Brothers, get to work!"
Countless sharp blades used to chop people turned into "axes" for chopping trees at this moment.
"Brothers, when you cut down trees, pay attention to the movements in the forest and be careful of their sneak attacks!"
"Yes!"
The tree-felling work was carried out quickly, and large trees fell down one after another.
In order to prevent the enemy's sneak attack, General Zhao also ordered his men to deliberately control the direction in which the trees fell when they were cut down, so that they would fall into the forest.
But what is strange is that since the enemy launched a sneak attack once, they have never launched a sneak attack on the Daxia soldiers again.
In the camp in the middle of the mountains.
A general ran in hurriedly.
"General Wesley, we have less than 40,000 soldiers left!"
They were already at a disadvantage, and being able to hold on until now, even with the advantage of terrain, was already very impressive.
"General Wesley, when will King Meredith send reinforcements?" he asked anxiously.
If Meredith didn't send reinforcements, they might not be able to continue holding on.
Wesley sighed inwardly, it was no longer possible for Meredith to reinforce them.
However, he would not say this to anyone. Once he said it, the military morale that had been restored with great difficulty would instantly be dispersed.
"How are you doing with the preparations I asked you to make?" Wesley changed the subject.
He said, "General, everything is ready."
At this point, he also said with some excitement: "The group of Daxia soldiers really did cut down trees as you said, General!"
"it is good!"
Wesley smiled for the first time in a few days, "We must give the Daxia soldiers a head-on blow this time!"
After saying that, Westley stood up first, left the tent and walked to the top of the mountain.
Wesley walked up along the newly cleared mountain path.
When he reached the top of the mountain, Wesley saw the soldiers on the top of the mountain.
"General Wesley!"
Seeing Wesley coming up, all the soldiers became excited.
This is on the top of the mountain, but not entirely. In the center of the mountain, there is a huge deep lake, inlaid on the top of the mountain like a blue gem.
The water storage capacity here is very large, otherwise it would have been evaporated by the sunlight long ago.
Wesley looked at the deep lake, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
Whether or not we can give Qin Yun a head-on heavy blow depends on this wave.
The soldiers around him also looked at Wesley expectantly.
In order to dig through the deep lake on the top of the mountain, more than a dozen soldiers drowned and their bodies sank to the bottom of the lake forever. They paid a heavy price.
This time it is their hope!
Wesley looked from a distance at the place where the trees fell one by one.
There is a mountain road there. With artificial drainage, the lake water on the top of the mountain will rush directly towards the Daxia soldiers.
The power of the flood is unstoppable!
A hint of red flashed across Wesley's face. "Right now, let's go!"
The soldiers stood at the edge of the deep lake and then pulled the switch on the sandbags blocking the gap.
A stream of water leaked out from the deep lake, and then the flow became stronger and stronger, instantly breaking down the sandbags and stones blocking the gap. The rumbling water swept down the mountain like a ferocious beast.
The soldiers were also cheering, as if they saw the moment when the water tore down the Daxia soldiers!
"Get out of there!"
Wesley yelled.
The water flow was so great that it actually washed away the soil at the edge of the gap, dispersing the soldiers' footholds. Many soldiers fell into the water in an instant, and their screams were washed away by the sound of the water.
The soldiers standing farther away hurriedly ran away, and the next moment their footholds were dispersed!
"Okay!"
A smile appeared on Wesley's face. The stronger the water flow, the greater the damage it would cause when it rushed down the mountain!
Because this deep lake is hidden in the depression on the top of the mountain, it cannot be seen unless you reach the top of the mountain.
Wesley only discovered this reservoir in recent days.
The first moment he saw this reservoir, his first reaction was "God help me!"
"Qin Yun, I hope you survive this time!"
