Chapter 1246 1246: A big gamble [please vote]
With this guarantee, what else can you not dare to do?
Qian Yong immediately said boldly: "Okay, as long as you say Ning Tunan, I will accompany you to the end and make a big bet with you! This time, I will not only bet my wealth and life, but also my life in the end." I'll bet all my money on it! If I win, I'll celebrate my success!"
It's not easy to say this from Qian Yong's mouth.
Qian Yong is not as smooth as a traditional martial artist. His social circle is very cautious and picky. There are not many civil and military people in the dynasty who can entertain him. "Ning Yan" smiled and said: "Once a word is spoken, it is difficult for a horse to catch up. The general has decided to treat you."
The confidence in his words made Kang Shi also look at him sideways.
To be honest, he, a big gambler, was not 100% sure, but seeing that "Ning Yan" was confident, his heart settled down and he immediately accepted the invitation. The originally solemn atmosphere relaxed with a few words, and the tension disappeared.
"Ning Yan" is naturally confident.
Just as she guessed, Mei Meng and the Southwest Alliance are not really of the same mind. Even before appearing in the battle this time, they risked deceiving the king. Just because they were demoted last time, Mei Meng closed the door. Xie Ke was plotted again, and the conflict with Cui Zhi was also brought to the surface, and a situation of him and not her appeared vaguely. The leader of the Qi Kingdom fell to the aristocratic family camp, and he needed the two major helpers Cui Zhi brought in as a bridge-Gongyang Yongye and Luo Yuan. Naturally, he had to make a certain separation from Mei Meng.
In this Dragon Slaying Bureau, Mei Meng was entrusted with the responsibility of supervising the country.
It is said that he is a supervisor of the country, and the people on his left and right are all from the Qi family. His relationship with Mei Mengming can only be justified, and she has no real power in her hands. With the tacit consent of the leader of Qi State, Mei Meng was half-empty.
As the right to speak in the court was reduced, Mei Meng simply fell ill.
No matter who comes to the door, the door is closed.
No one knew that Mei Meng would sneak out.
When the guard saw her, his expression showed a moment of shock: "Isn't Mei Xiang here...why are you here?"
The tone was vaguely wary and suspicious.
Mei Meng should not appear in front of him at this moment.
"My identity today is not Prime Minister Mei. The general only regards me as a knight-errant." In the dead of night, Mei Meng was wearing a black cloak, with a wide hood covering most of her face, only revealing a trace of her iconic Red lips said, "General, you can choose to listen to what I say today, or You can choose not to listen, the choice lies with the general."
The guard did not give an accurate choice: "Please tell me, Prime Minister Mei."
"Tonight, Kang State is very likely to use water to attack at night. In the camp, the water surged and spread across both sides of the bank. The general had already prepared.”
The guard almost laughed at this.
"Water attack? Tonight? Prime Minister Mei, I have always respected you, but your words are too absurd. Tonight the sixteen stars and the moon are bright, there is no wind, no rain and no fog, how can the water surge? "The water attack and night attack are even more nonsense. It's better not to make fun of me. I'll just pretend that I haven't seen you today."
Mei Meng was not surprised by this response. .
This guard's surname is not Cui, but he was indeed trained by a family that the Cui family has good relations with. On the surface, he does not take sides, but his camp is biased towards the Cui family. She said calmly: "General, why don't you ask me why I said this and where did the news come from? Is it unsafe to make a judgment without verifying it? Kang Guo secretly built a reservoir upstream and only needs to open the gate. Just release the water..."
The guard narrowed his eyes dangerously.
He didn't quite believe that the Mei Meng in front of him was real.
"Where did Mei Xiang know about this?"
What reservoir?
Never heard of it.
It was never mentioned in the previous combat meeting.
Why did Mei Meng know something that even Qi Guo didn't know?
Or does Mei Meng know why she didn’t tell the king?
The guard pulled out the sword from his waist with a swipe, and placed the blade across Mei Meng's neck. With a little force, he could kill the opponent's head with this sword: "Who are you, dare to pretend to be Prime Minister Mei?"
Mei Meng’s tone was smooth, as if the person whose life was being threatened was not her: "I have used inside information to allow the other party to manipulate the opening of the gate. If this is successful, there will be changes within the pass, and Kang Guo and others will suffer the consequences. If it fails, please make preparations in advance, general. That's all. , it’s up to the general to choose.”
The blade left a thin red mark on Mei Meng’s neck.
The guard asked again: "Who are you?"
The person who was supposed to be supervising the country ran up to him. He couldn't produce any irrefutable evidence of his identity. He suddenly mentioned the water attack and night attack, and said that she had already had it. Arrangement, if you really believe it, it will become a joke.
However, the guard did not dare to bet that one ten thousandth.
Ask again: "When will the insider information mentioned by Mei Xiang take action?"
If it is true or false, we will know after checking it.
"I don't know."
Mei Meng really didn't know the specific time.
As soon as she received the news, she hurried over to remind the troops along the way to be wary of that reservoir. No matter how good the southwest countries are in water warfare, if they are caught off guard in this situation, they may fall into a situation that is beyond recovery. As long as you take precautions in advance, you can not only minimize losses, but also take the opportunity to wait and see. The most ideal situation is that the inside detonation is successful, and Kang Guo himself is flooded first.
The guard hesitated in his heart.
He said: "Someone will be sent to confirm it in the end."
Listening to his words, Mei Meng knew that the other party still didn't believe her: "General, I would rather believe it than not."
"There are all kinds of ghost news about marching and fighting, do you believe everything? Mei Xiang can completely convince the general, and the general will believe it.”
For example, tell him why Mei Meng knows but Qi Guo doesn’t.
If you can’t answer, why should he believe it?
It’s good to have some doubts.
"Please, Prime Minister Mei, please be aggrieved for a moment. Once your innocence is proven, I will plead guilty to you without saying a word!" The guard general gave up the simple camp and used it as a temporary residence for the suspects. As soon as he opened the tent, he heard a sigh behind him.
“Hey, it’s still too late.”
I don’t know if the insider betrayed me or has been exposed.
The guard's patience was completely exhausted and he threw open the curtain.
Before the questioning came out, the guard also noticed something was wrong. The strangeness came from under his feet, as if something was moving towards him from a distance. The martial energy condensed in his ears, and the subtle and fuzzy movements were instantly clear several times - the soldiers and horses on this road were stationed near the water source, so there was no lack of sound of water flow, but the sound he just heard was more like the roar of waves, and the roaring of the sea and the shaking of the mountains. !
Something's wrong, something's wrong with this movement!
What Mei Meng just said suddenly came to mind.
He looked at Mei Meng with horrified eyes. The latter stood motionless, with no trace of emotion in his dark eyes. The guard woke up suddenly, no longer hesitated, and issued the order immediately. It takes a long time for military orders to be issued to the entire battalion, and it takes even longer for the soldiers to get ready to face the enemy after receiving the military orders. However, what arrived faster than the military order was the inexplicable out-of-control surge of water!
The night patrol soldiers didn’t know where the sound came from at first.
The war horse under his crotch was very sensitive and neighed uneasily. The soldier could not calm down at all: "Why is the war horse suddenly barking randomly?"
"Is there something going on?"
"What's the noise?"
They don't have as good an ear as the guard.
When I heard the noise, I could vaguely see shadows shaking on the horizon in the distance, and trees along the coast fell down.
Someone had the courage to step forward on horseback to check.
Not long after he ran out, he immediately turned his horse's head. The voice was frightened and torn: "Quickly-quickly-"
The rest of the voice was shattered by the huge impact behind him, and was drowned in the thunderous rumble. Seeing what was going on, the other soldiers began to flee toward the camp. The war horse under his crotch was galloping at full speed, barely able to keep pace with the monster chasing behind him.
In the flash of light, someone peeked behind him.
Only then did they realize that the monster chasing them behind them was not a ferocious beast, it was clearly a surging wave of water! However, God was not kind to us, the sky suddenly changed its face, dark clouds gathered, and it rained heavily!
"Wake up, it's flooded!"
The soldier who was taking a nap in his dream was violently shaken awake.
“How is it possible?”
In the hazy night, ordinary soldiers could barely see the shadows rushing towards them with their naked eyes, sweeping everything in their mighty force. Before their sleepiness could dissipate, the water waves reaching their chests had already destroyed the outermost defense of the camp.
The soldier screamed and was swept away along with the baggage.
"Why panic!"
The sonorous and powerful voice penetrated the rain curtain.
"Array up!"
The southwest countries are good at water warfare and have rich experience in dealing with water. This wealth of experience includes, but is not limited to, simply fighting floods. Ordinary soldiers were caught off guard by sudden changes, but brave warriors could barely keep their feet, either riding on the waves or fighting against them, so as not to be swept away somewhere. Following the military order, the body reacted subconsciously and formed special "shields". It is said to be a "shield", but it is actually an "L" shaped flood control board. These flood protection panels are arranged in rows and can cleverly use water flow to form a wall to isolate floods.
“Continue!”
Use this kind of flood control "shield" to isolate the impact of water flow, or even force the water flow to change its course, giving your side time to gain a foothold.
Boom——
The wall collapsed with the blast.
The current is coming back stronger.
The defender drew his sword to cut off the waves and forcibly broke through the line. But in the next moment, the separated water flow healed as before, as if nothing had happened, laughing at the useless actions of mortals. The guard was not angry, and was in a stable mood as he issued various orders. When soldiers come, they will be blocked, and when water comes, soil will cover them up. The only thing that can be used locally here is sand and soil except for river water.
The soldiers formed a military formation and used their morale to turn the sand into a wall to add chips to the flood control wall. The scribes also used their words and spirits to freeze. With their concerted efforts, they gradually tended to control the situation. The guard was not optimistic, he found that the water was getting bigger and bigger!
Not only did the water flow increase, but the impact force was also abnormal.
As of now, the enemy is still lurking in the dark.
He did not think that these were natural coincidences.
“Ah——”
A soldier screamed and lost his balance and was swept away by the current. The bloody shadow spread out in the water and was diluted in the blink of an eye. Starting from this cry, a series of changes happened one after another. Something in the water is harvesting the lives of soldiers!
Is there something hiding in the water?
Hahaha, not only are there hiding in the water, but there are also people guarding the lower reaches.
Qian Yong was also startled by the momentum at first - compared with the southwest continent, floods in the northwest are actually not that frequent, the scale is even less, and the response experience is even more incomparable - —Imagine, if you were the one who was flooded, you would probably be defeated if you were caught off guard, let alone react in such a short time to build a wall to isolate the water.
After reacting, Qian Yong became even more angry.
The elite troops were ordered early to take a detour downstream and specially opened the net to intercept the soldiers washed away by the current. Stop each one and kill each one!
He personally led his soldiers to kill them on a bamboo raft.
“Prepare your bows and arrows!”
No matter what, just shoot a few rounds to clear the place!
As the rain continued, the water rose at an alarming rate, and the impact never diminished. Qian Yong's soldiers and horses descended from the upper reaches of the river without any help, as fast as an arrow leaving the string. He took the lead and rushed to the enemy's defense line in an instant: "Death!"
Other soldiers mounted their spears directly under cover.
It looks like a spear, poking one after another.
If you poke people downstream, someone will naturally clean up on your behalf.
The wind and rain are strong, and the war drums are like thunder.
Qian Yong just showed off his strength twice, and two water pillars rushed out of the enemy formation, one on the left and one on the right, blocking his retreat. Not only do these two brave warriors look the same, but their body movements are also exactly the same, completely synchronized. People who don't know think it is some kind of incarnation technique.
Qian Yong: "..."
One knife to the left, one to the right, intercepting at the same time.
Just as he was about to praise himself in his heart that he was still as powerful as before, the twins simultaneously turned into a ball of water and merged into the torrent under their feet, and a cold breath hit Qian Yong's vest. The front foot avoids the sneak attack, but the rear foot comes with murderous intent. These two people are not very strong, but this tacit understanding is tricky. Qian Yong failed to pretend to be Bking and was unable to achieve the feat of riding the waves in his mind and taking the enemy's head back.
"Come on, the five virtues of a general!"
Qian Yong cursed in his heart.
Ning Tunan, Luan Gongyi, and Kang Jishou, none of the three literary scholars gave him an increase. Do they think it is not necessary for a melee? Finally, two rays of light slowly fell...
Qian Yong: "..."
The master who used Yanling looked pale as he held the bamboo raft mast.
Obviously, he was seasick.
Qian Yong: "..."
After all these years, he is still a reliable old man from home!
Qian Yong's strength was stronger than the two of them combined, and he could not kill them for a while. It was just that he was not good at water fighting and had difficulty controlling his posture in the rapids, but the two of them were able to swim like a fish in the water. When he got the increase, Qian Yong gave someone a gift of a broken arm.
He said disdainfully: "Even a young boy can fight against your grandpa!"
A grandpa is always a grandpa, and a grandson is always a grandson!
The grandson provokes grandpa and rebels against Tiangang!
Qian Yong not only broke the opponent's arm, but also used a strong wind to explode the broken arm into fireworks. The relationship between these two brothers is extremely deep. When one of them was crippled by Qian Yong's sneak attack, the other immediately went berserk. The muscles under his armor were filled to the limit by some kind of power, and his body size skyrocketed several times. Qian Yong mocked: "The power of love?"
Unfortunately, fighting relies on absolute strength.
The improvement that emotions can bring cannot erase the absolute gap!
Thirty-two giant tooth cards flew out from above the battlefield!
Below the battlefield, Mei Meng stands on the rushing water.
She looked up at the thirty-two giant tooth cards and clenched her fingers tightly in her sleeves. Suddenly, a strong aura of death enveloped her whole body.
She tilted her head to avoid it, but the arrow still cut off a strand of her hair.
She was not allowed to think too much, the sword light was directly between her eyebrows.
Mei Meng looked at the attacker in anger.
When he saw the other person's appearance clearly, he was startled.
"Long time no see, Miss Mei."
"Ning Yan" looked at Mei Meng with a half-smile but not a smile. This place was some distance away from the battlefield. Mei Meng really did not end up participating in the battle.
"Are there any guards around you today?"
(*￣︿￣)
Extra progress, two thousand two... It's so difficult to write, why did it happen back then? There will be so many characters...
