Chapter 216 Opportunities brought by heavy rain
"Boom,!"
A thunder sounded in the air, and the thunder rolled, extremely terrifying. After a while, a dazzling white light shone in the air, and then another thunder exploded.
Lightning and thunder are roaring, and the cycle is repeated.
The heavy rain was pouring, and the world was filled with fog.
This heavy rain lasted for three days. After Taishici withdrew and Wang Lei's army arrived at the Gaolan garrison, this lasting heavy rain began, with a storm. The rain was so heavy that it was so heavy that it was impossible to open its eyes. The water was misty. In addition, after the water was soaked, the road was muddy, deep and shallow, and it was impossible to march.
In this case, the army can only be stationed and cannot launch an attack.
In Yuan Junying, Gao Lan and Feng Ji were cooking tea and chatting.
Feng Ji took a sip of hot tea, looked intoxicated and said with a smile: "I don't know when this heavy rain will stop. If this continues, the war will last for a long time and add countless variables!"
Gao Lan said calmly, "The longer the time is, it will be more beneficial to us!"
Feng Ji replied: "Sometimes ago, news came from Nanpi County. The lord adopted Xu You's opinion and transferred back to the army of Zhongshan Kingdom. If the troops retreated, a large encirclement would definitely form. When the army blocked Wang Lei's retreat, he would definitely become a turtle in a jar and would be difficult to escape. If time was delayed, it would be even more impossible for him to withdraw!"
Speaking of this, Feng Ji looked sad, "After Xiuxian and Dongguang County were swept away by Wang Lei, the county government was destroyed and had no troops. There was no resistance. I want to use the power of the two counties to block Wang Lei's retreat. It is almost impossible. Fortunately, the remaining troops rushed back, which is enough to form an encirclement!"
Gao Lan suddenly shook his head with a serious expression, "What we can infer, the counselors behind Wang Lei can also think of it. In my opinion, Wang Lei wants to drive in and let the soldiers who come back to surround him go around. Therefore, our defense is very important. If Wang Lei blocks the way forward, everything will be easy, it will not be blocked, and the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Feng Ji chuckled and said, "The general is in charge of the overall situation, and the camp is guarded without any leakage. Wang Lei has no chance!"
Gao Lan shook his head gently and said, "There is no constant force in the army, and the battlefield is unpredictable!"
"boom,!"
There was a thunderclap, but the two chatting seemed to have not heard it.
Feng Ji suddenly sighed: "This heavy rain has not been over, and it's so annoying that it's like this all day!"
Gao Lan smiled softly and said, "Sir, irritable, Wang Lei is even more irritable. Wang Lei is unable to make a breakthrough for a long time, so he must be in a state of anxiety. The heavy rain at the moment may become the other party's breakthrough, and maybe it is also our breakthrough!"
Feng Ji's eyes showed a hint of surprise and said, "What are the general's plans?"
Gao Lan shook his head and said, "No, I have only made some arrangements and adapted to the situation." The two chatted in the tent, but it was still raining outside the tent.
...
Jizhou Army, military camp.
The central army tent, Wang Lei, Guo Jia, Dian Wei, Taishi Ci, and Dian Wei gathered together. The heavy rain in the past few days made Wang Lei unable to organize the attack of his troops. For this reason, Wang Lei was quite anxious. From the day before yesterday, Wang Lei, Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others discussed no less than twenty times. After thinking hard, they made the final plan.
Wang Lei looked at Dian Wei and asked, "Brother, are everything ready?"
"It's fully prepared!"
Dian Wei looked excited and his eyes were filled with glory.
This battle was carefully planned by Wang Lei, and he must win in one battle and completely defeat Gao Lan's army.
Wang Lei looked at Taishi Ci and asked, "Ziyi, are your people ready?"
"Everything is ready!"
Taishi Ci was ready to fight and was very excited. He led his troops to confront Gao Lan, but was defeated by Gao Lan using a trick. Now that he had the opportunity to counterattack, he was naturally full of expectations.
Wang Lei clenched his fists and punched the desk, and ordered: "Perform, victory or defeat is here!"
"Abide by the order!"
Taishici and Dian Wei Deling left quickly.
...
Taishici and Dian Wei left the camp with their soldiers, put on straw raincoats, and hats, and took their soldiers to advance in the heavy rain. The soldiers under their command were all holding hoes in their hands, and some of them were carrying large sacks. The direction where Taishici led the soldiers was at the rear of the army, and the direction where Dian Wei was at the front of the army, which belonged to Gaolan military camp.
Dian Wei led his soldiers to sneak all the way in the rain and quietly came to a place upstream of Gaolan Military Camp.
Here is a river flowing through this place.
For three consecutive days, the river water in the river channel rose, the river bank had been flooded, and the surrounding river water overflowed, and it had become a river lake, with water everywhere. Dian Wei rushed over and ordered the soldiers to dig the soil and prepare to build a dam in the river channel.
During Dian Wei's operation, Gao Lan arranged for the surrounding whistle detective to find out the news.
Shuita was anxious and went back to report immediately.
In the Yuan army camp, the central army tent, Gao Lan got the news reported by the sergeant, and a sneer appeared on his face. He had known that Wang Lei would not be able to help it, but he did not expect that Wang Lei would have plans so soon.
Immediately, Gao Lan ordered: "Follow closely and report the news to me at any time!"
"yes!"
The soldier got the order and turned around and withdrew.
"Come!"
Gao Lan shouted again, and a soldier walked in and heard Gao Lan's order: "Please come here!"
The soldiers went to convey the order, and soon Feng Ji walked in. Feng Ji took off his hat and straw raincoat and placed it at the door of the camp. He shook the water stains on his body. After sitting down, he took a sip of hot tea and asked, "General asked me to come here, is there any new news?"
Gao Lan nodded and said, "In the rear of our camp, Wang Lei's soldiers are digging soil to build an embankment!"
"Build a dam!"
Feng Ji raised his eyebrows and said in horror: "The camp is close to the nearby river. Once Wang Lei's people intercept the river, the dike will suddenly break and the river will rush down. Our camp will inevitably be avoided. Wang Lei's move is really vicious. He plans to solve us at one time!"
Gao Lan flicked her sleeves and showed a disdainful expression on her face. "Wang Lei's move is useful to Yan Liang and Wen Chou, but it is impossible for a veteran who has been marching and fighting for many years. If the person leading the army does not understand the time and geography, it is not for the general. Who would have thought of using the means of flooding the river in such heavy rain? Lei's skills are poor and there is no more means!"
Feng Ji smiled and said, "The general's eyes are like torches. Feng Ji admires him. Wang Lei cannot make a breakthrough in the front line at the moment, so he can only think of other ways. Since the general understands Wang Lei's plan, what are you going to do!"
"Get the plan!"
Gao Lan's eyes turned cold and she said, "I planned to stick to it before, but Wang Lei took the initiative to deliver it to the door, so he naturally had to take him down!"
After pausing, Gao Lan continued: "Wang Lei planned to flood our camp with floods. Since that's the case, we quietly left an empty camp for him. When Wang Lei led the army to operate, he took Wang Lei's nest and took down the food from his army. Without food, thousands of people in Wang Lei's army were hungry. In three or two days, if we didn't have to do it, his army would collapse!"
Gao Lan's eyes flashed with light and planned to take the initiative.
