Amid the laughter of a few people, the heavy rain gradually stopped, and the clouds and fog dissipated, revealing some patches of blue sky.
Soon Zhao Muyun and his party arrived at a pass.
On the left side of the pass is a rocky hillside. Apart from scattered wild grass and a few alpine rhododendrons, the rest are weathered stones.
The view from the pass is extremely good. Looking into the distance, you can see a river that is like a giant python, winding across the land of Weizhou and heading eastward.
The outline of Weizhou is vaguely visible.
"Boss Zhao, this is the Laishui River!"
"It winds around several bends in the valley of Feihu Ridge and flows all the way down to the plains of Weizhou."
Tang Yanhai held a branch and gestured towards the Laishui River in the distance.
Zhao Muyun narrowed his eyes.
The map shows a river originating from Feihu Ridge, then stretching for more than 30 miles across the Yuzhou Plain, and then flowing into the Sanggan River on the east side of Yuzhou.
The Sanggan River flows through the mountains between Weizhou and Yizhou in the north of Yanyun Road, enters the Youzhou plain in Yanyun Road, and then flows into the sea.
Feihu Ridge is the watershed in the northern part of Hedong Road.
The rivers on the west side flow into the Great River, while the rivers on the east side flow directly into the sea.
"There's a big lake over there!"
Yinji also followed the conversation between Zhao Muyun and Tang Yanhai and looked towards the east.
The rain and fog dissipated, and a large lake appeared in the valley, as green as a piece of emerald.
"General Yin, you are right. We also learned this from the local people."
"There was no lake here originally. Last summer, the hillsides on both sides suddenly collapsed, blocking the valley and forming this lake," Tang Yanhai explained.
Dammed lake!
Zhao Muyun was excited, but along the way he was worried that the dam construction project was too huge and not feasible.
He decided to go out in the rain to check the actual situation.
The landslide lake that was formed later made his idea more feasible.
God is really helping me!
Zhao Muyun had already formed a plan in his mind.
King Zhelan's seven thousand Tartars could perhaps be defeated without any effort.
Think about the two major battles against the Tartars, one with fire and the other with water!
In a short period of time, the Tatars experienced the extremes of water and fire, and the experience was extremely satisfying.
"We'll go down and survey it for a while before returning to camp! Then, have Lin Feng and Zhong Dahu come over to inspect it. I want them to dig up this lake!"
Zhao Muyun slowly told his plan.
What!
Yin Ji and Tang Yanhai arrived at the scene in shock.
At first they thought that Zhao Muyun came to the ridge to inspect the terrain, and then to consider how to build fortifications and advance layer by layer to pose a threat to King Zhelan.
But Zhao Muyun came here to dig up the lake.
As for what the lake water was for, the two of them knew it immediately.
The Tatars' camp is just outside the city of Weizhou. If the lake releases water, the flood will rush down and instantly turn the area outside the city of Weizhou into a vast ocean.
And now we have entered the rainy season, the continuous rain will make the water flow more turbulent and abundant.
Seven thousand Tatars are insignificant in the face of the huge force of nature.
The Tatar cavalry trapped in the flood were like eagles without wings.
"Boss Zhao, this plan is truly vicious and cruel!"
Tang Yanhai sighed, "King Zhelan's grandson is really unlucky to meet you, Zhao Tou."
"I've seen that Master's military deployment along the way is completely unconventional and unconventional. He is also good at utilizing various non-human forces. I admire him very much. Those veteran generals in the Dayin Dynasty are no better than him!" Yinji's eyes lit up.
He wanted to learn something from Zhao Muyun, but he didn't expect that Zhao Muyun's teaching would be a bombshell level as soon as he demonstrated it to him.
Zhao Muyun saw the two people's expressions of shock amidst their compliments and smiled faintly: "All resources can be used by me!"
Thousands of years of war examples are already loaded into my mind, and I just need to apply them according to local conditions.
As a time traveler, if you can't even have this little bit of knowledge, then all your knowledge will be in vain.
Everyone went down to the lake in the valley, and after further investigation, Zhao Muyun became more confident.
Based on the geographical features here, Zhao Muyun speculated that the landslide was caused by an earthquake or the sparse vegetation on the hillside.
Half of one side of the valley slid away, blocking the valley by nearly thirty or forty meters, thus forming a huge landslide lake.
It is unknown how many cubic meters of water are stored.
But once this place is dug up, it will definitely cause a huge flood in the lower reaches of the Laishui River.
Rumble!
The sky became dark again, and it seemed that a rainstorm was coming.
Zhao Muyun looked up at the dark clouds rolling in and thought to himself:
Then let the storm come even harder!
......
Yuzhou City.
Inside the city, Tong Gu, the commander of the Weizhou army, stood on the city wall, constantly looking towards Feihu Ridge, eagerly awaiting the arrival of reinforcements.
Weizhou has been besieged by King Zhelan for almost a month.
The food and supplies left for them are getting less and less.
At the beginning, King Zhelan launched a fierce attack, but since he was not at an advantage in numbers, King Zhelan adopted the tactic of surrounding but not attacking.
Because there were 5,000 Tatars lying in ambush at Feihu Ridge and could ambush the reinforcements at any time, King Zhelan was not in a hurry to capture the city.
There seemed to be a lot of soldiers and civilians in Weizhou City.
Originally, Weizhou could only support the military strength of a Zhechoufu, which was about one or two thousand people.
But now it has increased fivefold, and there is not much military rations available.
Pei Lun didn't expect the situation to be so bad.
The increase in the number of soldiers has led to a serious shortage of food and fodder in Weizhou.
Tong Gu had thought about breaking out.
