Chapter 366 Direct Attack
The river channel connecting from the riverside to the moat was completely dug in just half a month.
The last obstacle upstream was cleared, and the water flowed along the newly dug river channel, filling the moat.
Then it goes all the way down and rejoins the river.
The excavated river channel has a low slope and the water flow is not fast.
Lu Wanyin was very satisfied: "When the weather gets warmer and the river water is not so cold, we can build a dam downstream and raise fish in the river."
There are many uses for running water.
Song Jiuning sighed endlessly: "To be honest, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have imagined that a place like the wilderness actually needed to build a dam."
As expected, anything can happen when you are with Lu Wanyin.
Lu Wanyin's consciousness swept across the space.
The fish in the space have already hatched a lot of small fry.
When the time comes, we will move more of them out and raise them in the river.
These fish fry are very tenacious and there is no need to worry about not being able to survive in a different environment.
Lu Wanyin pointed to the moat, which was almost twice as wide and had clean water: "If this moat didn't have other uses, I would have wanted to grow lotus roots here.
In a couple of days, we have to establish a rule that no one is allowed to litter the river, especially not to relieve themselves near the river. Violators will be fined and there will be no leniency."
With this river, it is much more convenient for people to irrigate their fields.
The moat in the past was almost used as a toilet.
Moreover, Lu Wanyin planned to raise a group of water snakes in the moat.
An extra layer of protection is always a good precaution.
Song Jiuning looked at the world outside the city wall and exhaled deeply: "Look at the green all over the world outside the city. If I tell others, who would believe that this is a wilderness?"
The wildness has been warmed up and the wind blowing on my face is not as biting as before.
An eagle cried out in the sky.
Lu Wanyin looked up and saw a small black dot right above her head rapidly growing larger.
"Where did the news come from?"
Song Jiuning made some room and the giant eagle landed on the wall.
Lu Wanyin took the letter and quickly scanned it: "Mu Ji's caravan was ambushed as expected."
"Is it someone from the court, or someone from the Qi Xuanhou Mansion?"
Song Jiuning stood beside Lu Wanyin and saw the words on the paper clearly: "The Wang family and Chenyang Marquis Mansion probably don't have the energy for this right now."
"He is from Duke Xuan of Qi."
Lu Wanyin smiled slightly and put the letter into the space: "It seems that it won't be long before the Qi Xuanhou Mansion's spies in Fanzhou will be completely eradicated."
The current prefect of Fanzhou is a man who knows how to adapt to the times.
After the last beating, he has already shown the intention of surrendering.
Now that the Wang family is in decline, he has taken the initiative to send a letter of surrender.
Lu Wanyin left a message-carrying eagle in Fanzhou.
Now, he took the initiative to pass on information and informed her of the changes in the city as soon as possible.
Lu Wanyin sneered: "Marquis Xuan of Qi really made a wrong calculation. He only thought that he had the Lin family as an informant and acted in a hurry.
But they didn't think about how many people Mu Ji had buried during his many years of business in Fanzhou.
With my warning, the Lin family is probably in danger."
Lu Wanyin kindly reminded Mu Linyuan that, firstly, this partner was still of great use, and secondly, he could use Mu Ji to get rid of the Lin family first.
When Shui Yu starts to take action, it will be the time for her to completely take over Fanzhou.
Lu Wanyin sighed softly, "I don't know what the situation is like over there, General. I hope Meili and the others can help."
At this time, in a city a hundred miles away from Zizai City, Xie Jingci and his men had been camping outside the city for a day.
Xuan Qi came hurriedly from a distance: "Master, we have almost figured out the terrain of the city. However, the people inside are hiding extremely well and haven't revealed their whereabouts at all."
They came out from Zizai Peak and swept through the enemy lines with unstoppable force. In half a month, they occupied two cities and wiped out countless bandits.
Until here, we were blocked for a whole day.
This city is one of the two major cities in the wilderness, Lucheng.
The city of slaughter is famous for its brutal arena and slave trade.
It can be said to be a gathering place for desperadoes.
The city wall in front of me was terrifyingly high, at least three times as high as Zizai City.
Even ordinary ladders and catapults would be very difficult to use against such a city wall.
In Xie Jingci's hand was an extremely detailed map of the city.
Seven days ago, Meili flew from Zizai City with Lu Wanyin's instructions.
Xie Jingci originally planned to attack other cities first and then tackle this tough nut to crack.
The arrival of beauty made him change his plans.
He personally sat on the beautiful plane and circled over Lucheng several times.
The entire terrain of Lucheng is within sight.
Despite this, it is still extremely difficult to capture Lucheng.
Xie Jingci shifted his gaze from the map to the towering walls of Lucheng: "According to intelligence, there are at least 10,000 slaves and 3,000 beasts in Lucheng.
Even if we don't count the people who are in power in Lucheng, the daily food consumption alone is not a small amount."
A slender fingertip slid across the map, landing on a spot. "The wilderness is often windy and sandy, and the Colosseum in the center of the city is the most crowded. But there hasn't been a single speck of dust in the past two days. The people inside must be well-hidden."
If Xie Jingci had not been concerned about the nearly ten thousand innocent slaves inside, he would have launched a violent attack with the weapons given by Lu Wanyin.
Xie Jingci fiddled with a chip on his fingertips, his voice cold, "For Lucheng to have made it this far in the wilderness, it wouldn't be like they didn't even anticipate a siege. If that's the case, then we'll block their retreat."
Xuan Qi was shocked: "Master has found the direction of their secret passage."
Without supply channels, they would not be able to sit still like this.
How did the master find out?
They also saw it from heaven through beautiful convenience.
But no one found anything unusual.
"It doesn't matter where the secret passage is. As long as we block the entire Lucheng, there's no need to look for a tunnel."
Xie Jingci raised his head slightly and gestured, "Take the things Madam gave you and bury them ten meters away from the city wall."
Xuan Qi's expression also became serious.
After being away from Zizai City for so long, this is the first time I have used the things prepared by Lu Wanyin.
Several guards accompanying the army, each leading a small team and carrying a palm-sized black box, spread out around the city wall.
There was still no movement in the city.
No one knows what the person hiding in the dark is thinking, and no one stops him.
They probably thought they couldn't threaten the people inside.
When everything was buried, the high-flying flags swayed in the air.
When the soldiers saw the signal, they retreated a long distance away.
Immediately afterwards, Xie Jingci took out a black button and pressed it lightly.
boom!
There was a loud noise as if the sky was falling and the earth was collapsing.
The whole ground seemed to be shaking.
The air was filled with smoke and dust, and the loud noise almost made people deaf for a moment.
Even the soldiers of Zizai City who had been well prepared felt confused and couldn't recover for a long time.
After a long time, the smoke and dust gradually dissipated.
All the soldiers were stunned at the scene before them.
