A Journey to the Game World

Chapter 60
"Brother...I...this..." Zhang Fei stood there blankly, faltering and fumbling to say something, but in the end he just mumbled a few useless words.

Right now, his mind is blank, he doesn't know what to say or what to do next.He even completely forgot how to think!
"Come on, what are you still doing?"

Guan Yu suddenly stretched out his hand and tugged at Zhang Fei's arm, trying to drag him away.

"Brother, I..."

Under Guan Yu's tugging, Zhang Fei's figure swayed a few times, but in the end it still stayed firmly back to its original position.

Zhang Fei wanted to ask Du Huo for a response, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back abruptly.

As the saying goes, once a person has a brain, he will gradually become verbose, and this is exactly the case with Zhang Fei at this time.

At present, keen thoughts are constantly flowing, providing Zhang Fei with various conjectures, and the results finally make him hesitate, dare to think but dare not speak.

Du Huo turned his head to look at Zhang Fei, with a lingering smile on the corner of his mouth. At this moment, he had already lost all his majesty, as if he had turned back into that ignorant outsider back then!
"Go! I'll just pretend that what just happened never happened. You just need to know it yourself!"

At this time, Du Huo didn't have much expression, and his words were a little hollow. Maybe Du Huo deliberately wanted to create such a mysterious atmosphere, so that Zhang Fei didn't dare to guess his own thoughts.

And this is indeed in line with Du Huo's character, after all, since the moment he came into this world, he has been wary of everything around him.

Even if he treats the generals under his command, he does the same.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Du Huo's army moved in full force and went straight to Lingling City, joining forces with Lu Bu.

Under Lingling City, the turbulent moat directly blocked the army a hundred meters away.

It is said that this moat was dug and built by Li Jue, Guo Si and others specifically to prevent the Duhuo army from raiding. The torrential river was introduced from the west coast of the city, across the mountains to the bottom of the city.

Its grandeur is simply rare in the world, and it can also be seen from this that Li Jue, Guo Si and others are also at the end of the road.

Otherwise, how could they make such preparations that waste people and money.

The sudden emergence of the moat water was beyond Du Huo's expectation, and it was also very different from the plot of the game.

According to the surrendered general Li Su, before the camp fell some time ago, Li Jue, Guo Si and others would send fleets to the camp to deliver supplies basically every day.

But since the camp was captured by Lu Bu, Li Jue, Guo Si and others completely cut off the communication between Lingling City and the outside world.

At this time, all the people in the city fell into the clutches of the two men, and were imprisoned in Lingling City like prisoners.

If the delay is too long, then the people in this city will probably die at the hands of the thieves sooner or later.

At present, although Duhuo has a strong military force, it does not have many ships for the army to use.

What's more, at this time, there are still barbs buried under the moat. If these obstacles cannot be removed in advance, there is absolutely no way for the army to pass through the moat.

Therefore, the current plan is to solve the problem of the moat.

Since Du Huo was not very familiar with the geographical conditions here, he planned to find some local river workers to dredge the river, hoping to listen to their opinions.

……

The next day, dozens of river workers gathered in Duhuo's barracks to pay their respects to Duhuo.

"Uncle Liu Huang, we heard that your army wanted to capture Lingling, so we all came here to advise you!"

The team leader who led the river workers was an old man over fifty years old. The river workers all called him Uncle Liang.

"You folks are so enthusiastic, Liu Bei is very grateful! Since you folks are here to offer advice, please enter the account and discuss it!"

Originally, Du Huo just wanted to find a few river workers who were familiar with the local conditions, and a simple understanding of the local conditions would be enough.

But who would have thought that as soon as the news spread, so many people would flock here.

For the sudden appearance of these river workers, Du Huo was both surprised and delighted.Now that they have come, it is not easy to drive them away.

Therefore, Du Huo planned to keep them first, and then discuss this matter with them slowly.

If they can come up with a solution, that would be the best!
And if they couldn't come up with an idea, then it would be a good idea to ask them to leave.

……

Inside the barracks tent.

"The moat in Lingling City is not particularly deep. In my opinion, we can simply transport soil to fill the river and solve this problem at once!"

"It's necessary... the river you're talking about is the old river. Now the river has been rebuilt. The depth and width are both improved. It's a big improvement. If you want to transport soil to fill the river, you have to move at least a big mountain. to fill it up.

And such a huge amount of work will take at least half a year to complete. I guess by the time the river is filled up, the people in Lingling City should have died long ago! "

"That's right, it is absolutely impossible to fill rivers to create land! In my opinion, filling rivers is better than dredging. Anyway, Lingling City is surrounded by mountains on three sides. We can dig their rivers from three directions and divert them into the mountains separately. , After the river channel is unblocked, let's intercept the water source!

By then, the water in this moat will probably drain away soon! "

"Diverting water into the mountains is a way! It's just that the amount of work is relatively large. Although it is not as good as filling rivers and land, it will take at least half a month. From the perspective of time, it is still a little long. Some……"

"In terms of time..."

Ever since Du Huo invited these dozens of river workers into the camp, at this moment the dozens of river workers began to discuss eloquently.

The lively scene is almost equivalent to a school debate.The river workers expressed their opinions and talked in one go. It seems that they all have their own methods, and they don't agree with other people's methods.

"Lord, is this really useful?"

Looking at the group of noisy and quarreling river workers in front of him, Zhuge Liang couldn't help frowning. He also participated in this debate at the beginning, but as time went on, he gradually withdrew from this debate.

Because, at a certain moment, he suddenly discovered that what this group of people were talking about was only the moat, not the military!

"I hope it's useful! If it's really useless, then find another way!" Du Huo closed his mouth and forced out an intriguing smile.

At this time, his eyes were still fixed on the group of chattering river workers, his hands were folded in front of his chest habitually, and without consciousness, he assumed a posture unique to modern people.
