I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

Chapter 211 Zhang He is restless and aware of the crisis

"Reporting to General, I came down after General Cao Jun Lu Bu led his troops back."

Jiao Touch said honestly, and then couldn't help complaining,
"For the past half month, Cao Mao has sent generals to the city every day to yell and scold, which is really infuriating. General, even if we don't go out of the city to fight, we must fight back, right?"

"What, already retreated?"

Zhang He ignored Jiao Touch's request to fight back Cao Jun, and asked the guards beside him,

"What time is it now?"

"Reporting to the general, it is only seven o'clock at this time."

the guard replied.

"No, there is a ghost in it!"

Zhang He frowned into the word "Chuan".

As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the hall immediately looked at each other in blank dismay.

Or the judge took out a bamboo slip, wrote a line and handed it to Zhang Xi,

"What does the general think is wrong?"

"Earlier, Cao's troops were yelling and cursing in the city, and they retreated at noon. However, it was only [-]:[-] a.m. today, and they stopped yelling and cursing. Something is really wrong."

Zhang He read the bamboo slips and explained to everyone.

"The general is really worrying too much. Maybe Cao Jun is tired today and wants to go back for dinner earlier."

Jiao Touchman doesn't care about authenticity.

Including the audition, the expressions on the faces of everyone else were mostly disapproving.

They also felt that Zhang Yun was a little too sensitive.

The ancients divided each day into twelve hours, and each hour was divided into eight quarters.

However, Cao Jun retreated early at [-]:[-] pm, which was a very dangerous time.

Although Zhang He didn't believe in the theory of ghosts and gods, he had an ominous premonition in his heart for no reason.

He pondered for a moment, then stood up abruptly,

"Follow me up to the city wall to have a look."

Everyone was a little unhappy, feeling that Zhang Yun was making a fuss out of a molehill.

But he was the chief general, so he could only follow behind him and walk towards the city wall.

Zhang Nan, who was being lazy, was startled when he saw Zhang Yun and the others coming. He quickly stood up straight and saluted Zhang Yun.

"The last general has seen the general!"

Zhang Yun had no time to pursue his laziness, and looked at Cao Jun's camp not far away.

"General, there is no movement in Cao Ying. It seems that you are too nervous."

Jiao Touch said with a smile.

It's just a smile mixed with a trace of disdain.

Zhang He observed Cao Ying carefully, but his complexion changed, he pointed at Jiao Chu, and shouted sharply,
"Blind your dog eyes, give me a good look!"

Being scolded by him like this, not to mention Jiao Chu, even Shen Pei, Zhang Nan and the others were startled.

"Could it be that Cao Jun really did something?"

They all stretched their necks and looked at Cao Ying in the distance.

I saw the calm and calm in Cao Ying, and there were still scouts on the watchtower responsible for vigilance.

It doesn't look like anything unusual.

Everyone looked at Zhang Yun with puzzled eyes.

Zhang He pointed at Cao Jun's camp, a little bit resentful that the iron is not a steel tunnel,

"It's noon now, and it's time to bury the pot for cooking. Don't you think it's too quiet in Cao Ying?"

After he said this, everyone suddenly realized.

Yes, now is the time for dinner.

The cooks in the city have already prepared the meals, and the soldiers are taking turns to eat.

However, Cao Yingzhong is so quiet, there is really a ghost!

"Do you still think I'm too nervous now?"

Zhang He stared at everyone present and asked in a deep voice.

Now everyone is speechless.

They never expected that Zhang He would be so alert.

It was only since Cao Jun retreated two moments earlier that something was wrong.

No wonder the lord appointed Zhang Xi as the general, and he was in charge of dealing with Cao Mao.

The examiner picked up a pen and wrote a line of words "唰唰唰" on the bamboo slips, and handed it to Zhang He.

"Then general, what do you think Cao Jun is up to?"

"I do not know either……"

Zhang He stared at Cao Ying in the distance with his sharp eyes, shook his head and smiled wryly,
"Cao Mao is cunning by nature, I'm afraid he is planning something again."

He ordered all the horses to gather in the city.

In this way, although it would not be possible for Cao Mao to take advantage of loopholes, it also made him blind.

He had no idea what Cao Mao was planning.

Everyone on the city wall was thinking hard, what kind of conspiracy and tricks did Cao Mao have?
The examiner's gaze inadvertently fell on the river outside the city, and his pupils widened instantly!

"Ah ah ah..."

He danced with excitement and pointed to the river outside the city, wanting to say something.

However, his tongue was cut off by Cao Mao, and he could only make a sound of "ahhh".

The judge's strange behavior instantly attracted everyone above the city gate.

It's just that he couldn't speak, and he didn't write on the bamboo slips with a pen. For a while, everyone couldn't understand what he meant.

Zhang He's heart tightened, and he looked in the direction of the judge's finger.

When he saw the river outside the city, his calm expression was instantly disturbed.

He was terrified in his heart and couldn't help but lose his voice,

"Cao...Cao thief...is actually storing water!"

The people around came to their senses and subconsciously looked towards the river.

I saw the river that used to flow endlessly, but now the water has slowed down.

The water level in some places has even receded, revealing a river beach full of mud!
Although it is scorching summer right now, seeing this situation, everyone felt chills down their spines!
There have only been a few heavy rains in the past few days, and the river water is diverted from the Yellow River, so it is definitely not because it has dried up.

Then there is only one possibility.

Cao Jun built a dam upstream to store water!
In the past half month, Cao Jun has been fighting under the city every day like a dot.

Other than that, there was no movement at all.

From the looks of it now, I'm afraid they are just building a dam to store water as a cover!

"This... this... how about we withdraw? General!"

Zhang Nan suddenly panicked!

If Cao Jun is storing water upstream and preparing to attack with water, then Chaoge will definitely not be able to defend it!

At present, only important cities such as Luoyang and Chang'an are built with brick and stone structures.

The other cities are all built with rammed earth.

Chaoge is naturally also built with rammed earth.

Once Cao Jun breaks the embankment, the rammed earth city wall will definitely be washed down!

At that time, if there is no need for Cao Jun to attack, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the city will be buried in the flood!
"You trash, don't you think you have a chance to escape now?"

Zhang He stretched out his hand, pointed at Jiao Touch, Zhang Nan and the others, and cursed with a wry smile.

If the water level drop could be noticed a few days earlier, then they would naturally be able to retreat in an orderly manner.

However, Cao Jun retreated two quarters earlier today, naturally the preparations have been completed, and he disdains to act with Zhang Yun and others.

Jiao Touch, Zhang Nan and the others lowered their heads, not daring to meet Zhang Yun's gaze.

They had been complaining in their hearts that Zhang He was cowardly and cowardly and did not dare to meet Cao Jun, but they ignored the drop in the water level outside the city.

This is definitely a huge mistake.

If it wasn't too urgent right now, I'm afraid Zhang Xi would chop off their heads on the spot!
The examiner at the side recovered from the shock, quickly took out the bamboo slips, and wrote a line of cursive characters,

"Retreat immediately, live as many people as you can!"
