When I was in Qin Dynasty, I lost contact with the wave

Chapter 623: A land attack will attack Hanoi, a water attack will destroy Daliang!
Si River Valley, standing on Si River, is just an ordinary river valley.

But if the Wei army had a chance to break out of the Qin army's encirclement outside the Daliang city and successfully annihilate the Qin army in the valley, then perhaps the Qin army would have to retreat.

Who would have thought that this mediocre river valley would be home to almost all the senior generals of Qin's attack on Wei, such as Wang Jian's four generals Meng Tian, ​​Feng Jie, Feng Wuze, and Bai Yifei, as well as Li Xin of Northern Wei. , General Teng of Wei Nan and Wang Ben of Wei Dong.

If this group of people were to be dealt with at once, Qin Jun's plan to go eastward would suffer a serious setback.

"Our army has been besieging Daliang for a long time, but has not been able to take a step into Daliang City. Therefore, I have been thinking hard for a long time and finally came up with a plan to break Daliang!"

Wang Jian did not drag his feet at all. Apparently, the tenacity of the soldiers and civilians in Daliang City made even this calm and steady general lose his patience.

Wang Jian's words also attracted the attention of the generals.

Everyone knows that the beam is difficult to break, and they are all thinking about ways to break the city, hoping to show their faces in this battle to destroy the country. However, in the current situation, there seems to be no other way besides attacking the city with ants.

"Water fight!"

"Water fight?"

The generals of the Qin State are unfamiliar with water warfare, or in other words, there are almost no generals in the Qin State who are good at water warfare. The navy of the Qin State only has a Bashu navy, but if compared with the Chu State, although it is not the same. It breaks when touched, but it is nothing compared to a big thing.

"What I said is not to use the boat division as a soldier, but to use the water as a soldier..." Wang Jian stood in the front of the river valley, drew his sword and pointed at the Daliang City not far away that stood unyielding in front of the Qin army's iron hoof, "Water attack Daliang !”

There were all famous generals present. After Wang Jian finished speaking, they began to think about the feasibility of attacking the beam with water.

The term "water attack" is actually not too unfamiliar to generals, or it is not unheard of.

The earliest water attack recorded in history books was when Zhixiangzi led the Han and Wei soldiers to besiege Jinyang City of the Zhao family, and diverted the Jinshui River to flood the city, allowing the Jinshui River to rage in Jinyang City for two years. , causing "the city to live in a nest, hang a cauldron to cook, and the wealth and food will be exhausted."

Later, Han, Zhao, and Wei joined forces to dig up the dams of the Jin River, flood the Zhi family's army with the Jin River, and attack and destroy the Zhi family.

However, although this was the first water battle in history, the effect of the water attack was not very good.

The water flow of Jinshui River is too small, and Jinyang City is located at a high level, so the water flow is not enough to break the city.

In addition to flooding Jinyang, Bai Qi, Lord Wu'an, also flooded Yan City in the past, captured Yan Ying in one fell swoop, broke through the capital of Chu, and severely damaged the state of Chu.

Therefore, when the generals of the Qin State heard about water attack, they did not think that this rarely practiced tactic was fanciful, and they even vaguely expected to be able to reproduce a feat similar to the one when Bai Qi flooded Yan City with water.

"But, is this method really feasible?"

Meng Tian's question represented the rest of the generals, who still had some doubts about this kind of tactics that they had heard about but had never seen before.

"Don't worry. In fact, we, the martyrs of the Qin State, have already planned to cross the water to attack Daliang City."

Wang Jian asked someone to get a bamboo slip. This was a memorial to the emperor and his ministers that Ying Zheng had specially taken from the Qin royal treasury, as well as some secret history that was inconvenient to display. Wang Jian spread out one of the bamboo slips and said: "In the past, Zhang Yi, Lord Wu Xin , in order to force the Wei State to withdraw from the alliance, he once said: "To defeat the mouth of Xingkou, Wei will not have Daliang; to defeat the mouth of Baima, Wei will have no Waihuang and Jiyang; to defeat the mouth of Suxu, Wei will attack Wuxu and Dunqiu." Hanoi, water attack will destroy Daliang! '" "Wu'an Jun Bai Qi, in order to prevent Wei from participating in the alliance, went to Daliang in person and threatened Daliang with water attack, and finally defeated the unformed alliance. "

"In the past, Su Dai, the high minister of the Yan State, presented to King Yan Zhao the tactics of water attack on Daliang. The King of Xinling, Wei Wuji, wrote a suicide note before his death and also advised the King of Wei to take more precautions against water attacks."

"I've been reading through the classics these days. The Daliang City in front of us has been rebuilt twice, both because of floods!"

"Not to mention that the river banks were built as embankments and the embankments were breached to flood the city. According to Luowang's secret report, just the heavy downpours in recent days have already made the soldiers and civilians in Daliang City frightened."

Wang Jian was talking eloquently, his eyes were shining brightly, and he seemed to have already determined the outcome of the destruction of Daliang City.

"Good, the general has a good plan and is worthy of being called a famous general in the world!"

After confirming the feasibility of the water attack, Meng Tian also chose to support the water attack, and the other generals also nodded in agreement.

"However, a water attack is feasible, but if it is not handled properly, it may overwhelm the Qin army, so we need to be cautious." Bai Yifei pondered for a moment and then reminded him.

The generals who have been living in Qin all year round may not understand the dangers of floods, but Bai Yifei has witnessed floods in South Korea, where diseases are widespread, food is moldy, swords are rusty, and people suffer heavy casualties.

If it is not handled properly, the tragedy of Zhao's digging a dike and flooding the Zhi's army in the lowlands will happen again.

"That's why I invited the Taifu Ling and the Waterworks Ling."

Wang Jian stretched out his hand and pointed at Yun Zhongjun and Zheng Guo, and said with a smile: "The divination order is used to understand the stars and calculate the weather; the hydraulic engineering order is used to clear rivers and canals, and to measure the terrain, I have nothing to fear."

In this era, talents in both astronomy and hydraulic engineering are extremely scarce. After all, in the age of great strife, what is most valued are military, diplomatic and political abilities. Most practical talents such as astronomy and hydraulic engineering are not available. It was valued and reused by the princes.

As a result, even the Kanyu School and many other schools of thought that clearly had extremely practical theories were reduced to the point of near extinction.

But it just so happens that the state of Qin has such talents, and there are more and more of them! .

Wang Jian invited Yun Zhongjun and Zheng Guo to come because he wanted Yun Zhongjun to confirm the weather conditions, and the project task of building the dam and water attack beam was entrusted to Zheng Guo.

And not only Yun Zhongjun and Zheng Guo, they also brought many disciples from the Great Qin Academy to practice here.

In fact, only Yun Zhongjun is needed to observe the stars to confirm the weather. Calling his disciples is also to test their abilities.

The Zheng State side is completely different. After all, there are not many opportunities to build rivers and canals, not to mention such an epic project that requires water to attack the beams. This is very difficult for Zheng State's disciples, Kanyu family disciples, and others in the Great Qin Academy. This is an extremely rare opportunity for Shao Mo family disciples.

After that, the other families also sent many disciples to the banks of the Sishui River to predict how much damage the water attack on Daliang would bring to Daliang City, and how much food and money would be spent to relieve the Qin State and restore people's livelihood. It was necessary to capture Daliang after There are many issues such as what kind of temporary procedures should be established to avoid vicious incidents.

Thousands of teachers and students from Daqin Academy gathered here. As Wang Jian's backer, what kind of luxurious configuration is this?
It's roughly like the bombing school joke in later generations. The engineering department is responsible for measuring the blasting point; the physics and chemistry department is responsible for tinkering with explosives; the mathematics department is responsible for calculating the tonnage of explosives; the finance department is responsible for estimating project costs; the geography department is responsible for evacuating people; and the literature department is responsible for evacuation. Record the glorious scenes; the Department of Foreign Languages ​​is responsible for translating into languages ​​of various countries; the Department of Biology is responsible for maintaining the ecological balance around the explosion; the Department of Political Science and Law is responsible for litigating the aftermath; the Department of History is responsible for confusing right and wrong and shirk responsibility...
