Chapter 203: Waves on the ground

"Don't come up! Don't come up! You can't squeeze it down!"

"I will throw you down if you dare not let him come up!"

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze...ah!"

With a scream, someone on the crowded arrow tower was so crowded that he fell downstairs. He fell into the water with a thud. After struggling for a few times, he disappeared into the water like yellow soup.

There were all kinds of debris floating on the water, and some corpses mixed with them. They were soldiers drowned in the water. The abdomen were swollen and their faces were pale. As the waves rippled, they looked a little cunning.

Generally speaking, drowning people will only float to the water after a few days, but some drowning people will float after more than an hour. It is said that they will "drink full" the water and their stomachs will float when they are big.

Those who floated up one or two hours after drowning were considered "the best" among floating corpses, but the survivors did not want to be such a best. They tried hard to squeeze into the high places and wanted to survive.

But most of the military camps were flooded, and a few high places could no longer be squeezed, so other commanding heights became refuges, and the Arrow Tower was one of them.

All the arrow towers in the military camp were full of people, the platform was crowded, and the ladders and wooden beams were also crowded, but there were still many soldiers struggling to lean towards the arrow tower. More and more people climbed up the arrow tower, and they were already overwhelmed.

But the instinct of survival has made many dying soldiers climb up. If there is no place to catch them, then grab someone else's ankle and climb upwards.

Some people kept falling into the water because they couldn't catch them tightly and were pulled. The empty position was quickly occupied by others. Then others tried their best to climb up. When they were safe, they had to pull their comrades up together.

There are only so many places, and I don’t care about anything to survive. I scream and cries one after another. From time to time, people screamed in surprise and struggled to shout for help. Finally, they sank into the water. Zheng Wu stood on the arrow tower, looking at the scenes in front of him, feeling anxious.

The platform he was on was already too crowded to squeeze, the wooden boards creaked, and he was squeezed into the corner, the railings were crossing the abdomen, but there were still people who kept climbing up, trying to squeeze in and make room for the people below.

Many people shouted desperately, "Don't come up!" However, the people above shouted, and the people below would not listen. The flood broke out in the middle of the night, and the water level was now out. Most of the soldiers were northerners and could not swim at all. Who doesn't want to survive? Who doesn't want to climb to a high place?

The few high grounds in the camp that were not flooded were occupied by the generals. Ordinary soldiers could not gain a foothold there, so they could only go to climb the camp and the arrow tower. However, the camp and the arrow tower were overwhelmed and had fallen a few sections in succession. The only thing that could save lives was the arrow tower.

If this continues, the arrow tower will collapse!

Zheng Wu thought so, but he couldn't change anything. He couldn't swim, and even when the water was deep enough to reach his chest, he would panic, not to mention that the flood now drowned many people. He could only pray that the arrow tower was strong and that so many people could withstand it if they climbed up.

Last night, he was on night, and Liu Laoer, who was on the turn, never came. When he was awakened by the shouts, he realized that there was a flood outside and the camp was flooded.

At first, he hadn't come to his senses yet, and saw water everywhere on the ground, so he rushed down the arrow tower and went back to the tent to pack things. However, after he got down to the ground, the water depth was no longer enough to his butt. When he saw many people running towards the arrow tower, he realized that it was important to save his life first.

After finally climbing up the Arrow Tower again, it was temporarily safe, but the situation became worse and worse. The water level in the camp quickly remained the same as outside, deeper and deeper, and more and more people drowned.

He saw his comrade Liu Laoer turn around and get things. When he runs over, the water has already disappeared. As a result, Liu Laoer is walking in the water, he suddenly staggers forward and struggles in the water for a moment before there is no sign.

Since then, Zheng Wu has never seen Liu Laoer again. His comrade's fate scared him to his legs so much that he knew that he would die if he fell into the water.

So he could only pray that the arrow tower was strong enough and that he would not be squeezed down. Zheng Wu was so crowded that he could only endure it. He really couldn't figure out why the camp was flooded even though it was not raining heavily?

Suddenly, a harsh burst sound came from under his feet, which was the sound of the wood breaking. Zheng Wu felt that the platform under his feet was tilting. The arrow tower began to tilt with the screams of countless people, and then poured into the water.

The moment the arrow tower entered the water, it stirred up the water splash, and countless soldiers who climbed into the arrow tower disappeared into the waves.

Under the water, Zheng Wu struggled desperately, pouring a lot of river water into his mouth and nose, choking and almost suffocating. The fear of dying made anything around him save lives. When he met someone with his left hand, he didn't care about so much and climbed up.

The other party struggled desperately, and Zheng Wu also used his last strength to press him under him, trying to stretch his head out of the water to take a breath. However, at the moment when it surfaced, his waist was hugged.

Another person tried to surface with him as a pedal. The two struggled to hug each other, exhausted their last bit of strength, and sank in despair. Zheng Wu, who was about to lose consciousness, reached out his hand in vain to grab the water surface.

I... haven't tasted a woman yet...

Zheng Wu sank into the bottom of the water and failed to become the "best". In the flood, soldiers drowned or were about to drown. Crying out help came one after another. Pan Zihuang, the marching general manager, heard it, but he was powerless.

He was woken up by his generals in the early morning this morning. After learning that the flood was still calm, he immediately ordered everyone to move to Shaoling.

However, the water level rises slowly. The water level was deeper when the first few soldiers left the camp. Later, the troops who left the camp could no longer reach Shaoling. After being tripped, they struggled in the water for a moment and then disappeared.

Most of his soldiers were northerners and could not swim. They were anxious and did not have so many boats to transport them. Seeing that the water level was getting higher and higher, Pan Zihuang was trapped on a mound waiting for rescue.

Looking up, Pan Zihuang could no longer see the river outside the camp, but only saw a vast ocean, inside and outside the camp, the area around Shaoling had turned into a country of marsh, and his troops and supplies were all soaked in the water.

It has not rained heavily recently. It is impossible that the river water has surged due to the weather. Pan Zihuang noticed that the flood was flooding rather than rushing over, so it was not a dam upstream to store water for water attack, but...

Instead, build a dam downstream of Rushui or Baishui and flood Shaoling!

This is an incredible thing. Pan Zihuang feels that the Yuzhou area is a plain area. Even if someone builds a dam downstream of Shaoling, it is impossible to cause heavy floods in a short period of time without heavy rain.

However, what he thought was impossible happened now!

After fighting for so many years, Pan Zihuang only sighed that today is the most embarrassing. Before setting off in Yecheng, Prime Minister Yuchi Dun also repeatedly told him that it is summer and autumn, so he should be wary of water attacks.

Pan Zihuang was indeed wary of the enemy's attack with water, but he didn't expect that the opponent could actually make waves in the flat ground.

The huge sound of water came with a scream. Pan Zihuang looked in the sound and saw another arrow tower falling down. I don’t know how many soldiers would lose their lives because of this flood. After this flood, his army might be greatly damaged.

People and horses suffered heavy casualties, and the food and supplies were completed. Even if the flood receded, his soldiers could not go south to fight, and it was difficult to defend Shaoling, because even if there were people, there was not enough food and grass.

Pan Zihuang thought of Heba Fuen who was defeated and killed, and he was not much better than the other party. The Yuzhou army collapsed without fighting outside Xuanhu City, and his 20,000 troops were finished before he arrived at Xuanhu.

Several small boats were rowing towards Shaoling. The soldiers on it held sharp knives and spears. If someone kept warning him to climb the boat gang, he would chop his hands and stab people. They came to pick up Pan Zihuang and his main generals in the army to enter the city. Until then, no one else could get on the boat.

Just as the ship approached the camp, a horn sound came from the south. Pan Zihuang heard the sound and did not turn to look at it. Instead, he smiled helplessly: Since the enemy's troops blocked the river and built a dam and returned to Shaoling (Lekou), isn't it normal to take the opportunity to send troops to attack on a boat?

In the south, there were figures of people on the endless water surface. They were countless soldiers riding on boats and bamboo rafts, advancing towards the Lekou camp and pounced on the survivors surrounded by the water.
