In the southeast of Zhenyang City, at the mouth of Zhenshui Gorge, the Grand Governor Wang Meng was inspecting defense. In order to defend Zhenyang, he had already used all the solutions he could think of. After some preparation, although Zhenyang did not dare to say that it was as solid as a god, he still had confidence in guarding for more than a month.

However, there are no indestructible cities in the world, and Zhenyang is no exception. There are still hidden dangers under the perfect city defense.

First of all, the location was located on the north bank of the Zhenshui River. The reason for this is that the site selection was specially considered when the Zhenyang City was initially built. One of the important purposes was to guard against enemies in the south direction.

To put it bluntly, Zhenyang and Qujiang are the important places of the Central Plains garrison in Lingnan. To prevent the rebellious southern li and his subordinates, even if the situation is corrupt, they must stick to a piece of land on the southern foot of Dayu Ling and maintain an important foothold for the main force of the official army to suppress the rebellion.

Donghengzhou where Qujiang is located and Xihengzhou on the southwest side were originally divided from Hengzhou, and the establishment of Hengzhou's administrative division is to echo the north and south of Guangzhou in the south.

Guangzhou Prefecture is located on the coast of Fanyu, and the government troops can go directly to Fanyu by sea from Jiankang; Qujiang is located at the southern foot of Dayu Ling, and is the confluence of Hengpu River and the Longshui River to form the Qinshui. It has water and is convenient for 6, and is an important stronghold on the 6th route from the government troops to Lingnan.

Zhenyang is the southern gateway of Qujiang. Once Guangzhou is in trouble, the Qujiang garrison will take a boat to pass through the river and flow downstream to reinforce Fanyu. If Fanyu falls, Li and the Li army heading north must conquer Zhenyang before invading Qujiang.

Therefore, the 水水水 flowing from the south of the city is the natural moat of Zhenyang, which is also one of the reasons why the city is built on the north bank of the 水水水.

As a result, the situation has reversed. After the fall of Qujiang, the enemy came from the north. Although Wang Meng immediately asked someone to dig a ditch and dig water to create an emergency moat, it was never as good as the steep water.

This is just the first hidden danger, while the second hidden danger is that it is susceptible to water attack.

It is not that Zhenyang City is easily attacked by water, but the southern bank of the other side of the city is easily attacked by water. The Zhen River flows out from the gorge in the southeast of Zhenyang and then turns northwest into the Shishui River. As long as the enemy builds a dam upstream of the Shishui River, and then digs a dam to release water, the surging water will directly sweep across the south bank of the Shishui River on the west side of the gorge.

By then, the Li Bing camp stationed on the south bank will be finished.

This is determined by the terrain near Zhenyang. It is said that the village should not be established on the south bank, but Zhenyang City cannot accommodate so many soldiers. If most of them are the official troops, Wang Meng would be very confident in establishing a village outside the northern suburbs of the city, using it as a barrier to resist the Zhou army.

But most of the troops in these slangs have poor combat effectiveness, and they are not enough to defeat things in the wild and wild war. Once they collapse, they cannot open the city gate or open the city gate. Therefore, they can only let these soldiers set up camps in the south of the city, that is, the south bank of the Zhenshui River, and enter Zhenyang through the floating bridge to help defend the city.

In this way, we have to be wary of the Zhou army's old tricks to re-use water attack. The upper reaches of the Zhen River are Qingyuan County. The county's capital Wengyuan and Anyuan County's capital were only separated by a mountain. Now it has been captured by the Zhou army, so the chance of the opponent's water attack is over 90%.

Since the chance of being attacked by people with water is very high, Wang Meng certainly cannot sit and wait for death. The site selection of Nan'an camps is in a higher terrain, which is a place that cannot be flooded when the water floods over the years.

The rainy season has not yet entered, so even if the Zhou army uses the steep water to attack water, Chen army will not suffer much loss as long as they pay attention to the terrain. Wang Meng learned from his experience and lessons and set up a village at the entrance of the gorge, which makes people measure the water level day and night every day, which lasts for many days.

The water level must be measured every hour of the day. Once the water level drops significantly, it means that water is being stored in the upstream. This is the prelude to the Zhou army's water attack. Measures must be taken immediately to prepare the Nan'an camp to prevent floods.

This is also what Wang Meng cares most about. Whenever he has time, he has to come here to avoid being lazy and eventually defeated the official army.

There is a wooden stake standing on the bank of the shore of the water. There is a trace on the water surface. It was cut by Wang Meng with his own sword. This is the water level marking of the shui. Every time he comes over, he has to look at it with his own eyes, so that no one will make a mistake by mistake.

Seeing that the water level of the marsh had not changed significantly, Wang Meng was relieved and told the guard to ride a few words before walking back. He wanted to go to the Nan'an camp to inspect if there were any new hidden dangers.

The camp stationed in the Nan'an camp, the Li, the soldiers who came to help the war, and the Lishou, who belonged to them, naturally they were not affiliated with each other. If so many people gathered together on weekdays, there would definitely be constant conflicts between all kinds of people. However, now there are people in the camp who keep their word and can't get up.

Wang Meng wanted to stay in Zhenyang, so of course he had no time to take care of the destruction of Nan'an Camp. Now there are two people in charge of Nan'an Village: Chen Fozhi, the governor of Xihengzhou, and Feng Xuan, the prefect of Gaoliang.

There are three major families in Lingnan, namely the Chen family of Longzhou, Feng family of Nanlu and Ning family of Anzhou. These three major families were originally families that moved south from the Central Plains. After settling down in Lingnan, they have been merged with local slang and liaison for several generations and become a powerful man.

Chen Fozhi was born in the Chen family of Longzhou, and Junwang was Yanling in Yingchuan County. Feng Xuan was born in the Feng family of the South Road. His ancestors were the Nanyan royal family who went south to avoid disaster. They were all those with real power in their own families, and they led the elite troops of their own families to station here.

He has prestige and strong soldiers, and he will kill whoever he says he will kill. There are slang coaches everywhere, and the cave owner dares to act rashly.

There is also the Ning clan of Anzhou. Because Anzhou is too far from Dongheng Prefecture, it is impossible to send people to lead troops to help. Of course, Anzhou where Ning clan is located is only the same name as Anzhou in Nanyang, Zhou Guoshan, but has nothing to do with it.

Although Ning Mengli, the governor of Anzhou, failed to arrive in Zhenyang, Wang Meng had already breathed a sigh of relief with Chen and Feng, especially Feng Xuan's arrival, which made him completely relieved.

"The Northern Gate has great power, and the official army suffered heavy losses after its defeat. I have asked the two to lead troops to assist the official in defending Zhenyang."

"Please rest assured, Governor Wang, we will lead our troops here to help the battle, and we must work together to drive the Northern Territory out of Lingnan!"

The loud words were spoken from the young Feng Xuan. If it were someone else, Wang Meng would not believe it easily, but since it was Feng Xuan's words, there would be no problem, because what the young man said was the Tai Madam.

On the south road, there was another wealthy family standing beside him, that was the Xian family of Gaoliang.

Gaoliang Xian family was originally a local tribe in Lingnan. They were the leader of Nanyue for generations. They crossed mountain caves and had more than 100,000 tribes. As early as the end of the Qin Dynasty, the leader of Xian brought gifts to Fanyu to meet Zhao Tuo.

The Feng family, who went to Lingnan to avoid disaster, was always a little weak, although they were strong, until Feng Xuan's grandfather Feng Bao married the Xian daughter and married her strongly, becoming the first wealthy family in Lingnan: Feng Xian.

Feng Xian's head was not a man from the Feng family, but Feng Xuan's grandmother Xian, who is also the hero among women who are known as Lady Xian. The Dinghai Shenjian in Lingnan has no prestige. Chen Guo named him the Lady Shilong Tai, so everyone respectfully called Lady Xian the Lady.

Feng Xuan, the grandson of the Grandmaster, led his troops to Zhenyang to assist Wang Meng in defending the city. This incident itself shows the Grandmaster's attitude. The gentle men and cave owners in Lingnan all over the country will follow the Grandmaster, so Wang Meng was ashamed of his mind, and his confidence increased greatly.

Not to mention Chen, the Feng family has always been close friends. Chen Fozhi and Feng Xuan were originally friends. With them in charge, Wang Meng would not have to worry about gathering in Nanzhai and his military soldiers were disobedient.

"Envoy Chen, Feng Fujun, this time the Northern Territory is powerful, and the commander's use of war is cunning and changeable. You must not be careless. This official is in charge of Zhenyang, and there are two people in Nan'an Dazhai!"

Wang Meng spoke very politely, but Chen Fozhi and Feng Xuan did not dare to be negligent and kept saying, "The emperor is willing to serve the country."

It is useless to say too much on the scene, and it is important to talk about the main things. Chen Fozhi and Feng Xuan unified their opinions in advance and directly expressed their worries:

"Grandmaster, our army has made complete preparations to defend Zhenyang. The northern barbarians are eager to capture it. However, so many soldiers gather here, the food and grass are consumed a lot. If we continue to consume this, our army may not be able to bear it."

"What do you mean?"

"I know that if I want to go out of the city to attack the Northern Territory, it will definitely not work, but it is not good if the opponent doesn't attack, just do it like this. Why not find a way to get them to attack?"
