Chapter 30: Opening the gates and pouring back the Shu divisions are embarrassed and the soldiers of Dujiang and Shu are captured
At the hour of the sun and Mao, the people in the city retreated to a higher terrain in the city under the arrangement of Du Yu and Zi Juan. Wu Weiyi followed the soldiers to the city wall and waited for Mo Di and his party to dig a trench to Jingmahe to release floods.
After waiting until Chen Shi San, there was no movement on Jingmahe. Wu Weiyi felt a little nervous after waiting:
"What's going on? Why haven't you made any move yet? Could it be that Mo Zhai and the others encountered some difficulties?"
At this moment, I suddenly heard someone secretly coming from outside the Ximen:
"Report!... Report to Mr. Wu, Mo Di sent someone to report the message, saying that he saw another person stationed downstream on the other side of the Jingma River, but he did not know which one person it was. Out of caution, Mr. Mo sneaked into the other party's military camp alone, and gave him a pair of jade talismans from the other party's commander's tent. He specially sent him to Mr. Wu for a look, asking him to snatch it!"
Wu Weiyi took the jade talisman and looked carefully. He saw that the object looked like a geisha and red all over, but it looked like the color of the big tripod in Yufu City. Moreover, whether it was cutting or polishing, it was extremely exquisite in craftsmanship, and you could tell that this object was absolutely extraordinary at a glance!
"Red light? This...isn't it the extremely rare red onyx in the Spring and Autumn Period?! And... from the appearance of this object... Could it be that this object is the token of the Zoroastrian Vulcanism?..."
At this moment, another person hurried from the downstairs and said to Wu Weiyi:
"Mr. Wu, Your Highness, Princess, has arrived."
It turned out that it was Princess Du Yu who saw that there had been no movement inside and outside the city for a long time. She was afraid that the situation had changed and she was really worried, so she came to ask about the situation in person.
"Mr. Wu, it's almost past Chen Shi, why can't you see any movement outside the city?"
Wu Weiyi saw that it was a princess, so he handed over the stolen stolen by Mo Di and said:
"Princess, please see. Mo Zhai sent someone to send this item, saying that another mysterious person was stationed on the other side of the Jingma River. Mo Zhai felt something was strange, so he took advantage of the other party's guards' unpreparedness to steal this item from the camp."
While listening, Du Yu carefully picked up the gueju and looked carefully. After seeing this thing, he was startled first, but then his brows frowned, looking thoughtful:
"I'm not hiding this thing, Mr. Wu, I really feel familiar!"
Wu Weiyi was shocked when he heard this:
"The princess actually knew this thing? Where did this thing come from? Are those people and horses enemies or friends? What is their purpose?"
After thinking hard for a while, Du Yu replied hesitantly:
"I vaguely remember this thing... Sister Shi once carried a piece with her, but except for the different color, the rest were no different! At that time, I saw that this thing looked strange and exquisite, so I asked her, but she only said it was a bequest from her father, so she always wore it to her, thinking about it."
Wu Weiyi was even more confused when he heard Du Yu say this:
"What exactly does this team of men want to do? If they want to help you, how can they not enter the city to garrison? If they are really from the Divine Cult, how can they not join forces with Du Jiang? Now they are stationed in a place that has nothing to do with us!"
Just when the two of them were hesitant and at a loss, Zijuan stood aside and said to him quite neatly:
"Mr. Wu, princess, now the arrow is on the string and has to be fired. Instead of sitting here and waiting for death, it is better to give it a try! No matter what the team of people are, if Du Jiang always surrounds Picheng, the danger of Picheng will not be solved for a day."
After hearing Zi Juan beside Du Yu's words, Wu Weiyi secretly claimed to be surprised. Then he thought about it carefully and said to the messenger sent by Mo Zhai:
"Let Brother Mo not be burdened by this matter. It is not too late to retreat to Dujiang Shu Division first, and then discuss it."
The man also understood clearly, and he took his life back.
......
About an hour later, countless birds in the forest flew out of the valley for no reason. For a moment, the birds covered the sun, as if black clouds were lying on the city. The soldiers in Dujiang camp felt that the sky had sunken. When they looked up, they saw a group of birds passing by in the sky, but they didn't know why. Then, a group of beasts in the suburbs of the mountains seemed to be frightened, and they ran towards the Dujiang Shu Division Camp at the foot of the mountain.
At this time, Wu Weiyi and Du Yu were standing on the head of the city, watching everything that was happening at the foot of the mountain with breathing intently.
Gradually, a loud sound of water came from the lush forests on the hillside. It turned out that it was the sound of the flood caused by the mountains washing away trees at a rapid speed:
"It's a flood! It's...it's a flood! It's a flood!"
When the Shu army soldiers outside the east and south gates saw the flood attack, they threw away their armor and rushed to the high ground to escape. However, many people were unable to run away, and in a short while the flood had already followed these people. Then they were immediately overturned by the impact of the flood and rolled into the flood. The deer forts and wooden fences that were originally stuck outside the Dujiang Shushi Camp also instantly became single trees floating on the water surface under the invasion of the flood. In despair, the Shu soldiers who were involved in the flood rushed to grasp the driftwood and borrowed the power. Some even fought against each other in order to compete for driftwood.
At the same time, Picheng was surrounded by floods and was as safe and sound as Mo Di said. The city gates were closed tightly and tightly. The middle cracks of the city gates were filled with a kind of gum. However, the underground stone canal that was originally connected to the outside of the city, the flood outside the city had no dripping water into the city through the pipes. The flood control mechanism designed by Mo Di, Shuiguanyue Dam, actually blocked the flood outside the city. The people in the city whispered and praised the exquisiteness and magical skills of the mechanism here.
Wu Weiyi stood on the city tower and saw everything in front of him clearly. About half an hour later, although the flood had dropped sharply, the situation outside the city was already in a mess. The hills and valleys that were slightly higher than the bottom of the valley were now divided into isolated islands in the flood. The Shu soldiers were divided into scattered by these "isolated islands".
"Okay! Put down the bamboo steak quickly!"
Wu Weiyi gave the order and saw that on the city wall, the soldiers of the soldiers put the bamboo trays that had been prepared before and put them down the city. The bamboo trays floated on the water when they encountered water. Moreover, the bamboo trays were large and there were enough 20 or 30 people standing on each bamboo tray, so they were extremely stable in the flood.
The soldiers of Picheng all went from the city wall to the bamboo platoon, with shields raised in front and swords raised in the back and soldiers protruded from between the shields. The morale of the soldiers was high and they were all waiting for battle. Afterwards, Wu Weiyi and Zijuan each ordered a team to divide the troops into two groups, and they boarded these "isolated islands" divided by the flood one by one.
Whenever Wu Weiyi came to a place, he would order someone to shout loudly:
"All the soldiers of Shu Kingdom, all of them are compatriots in Shu Kingdom! As long as you abandon your sword and sword, you will surrender! The princess has always been kind and kind. When the war is over, she will let everyone go back! Never break her promise!..."
At present, Du Jiang's Shu army was already in a defeat, and was trapped by floods on all sides, and he was even more unwilling to fight. Moreover, in order to facilitate his life, he threw away his armor along the way, and his weapons were thrown into the floods. Therefore, these Shu soldiers now have to have shields but no shields and no swords on their hands, which can be said to have really become like fish and meat on the table.
After hearing Wu Weiyi's shout, the vast majority of Shu soldiers found that they still had a way out, so they took the initiative to surrender, and then tied up with their backhands and took them back to the city. And a very small number of Shu soldiers acted extremely fiercely. They knew that there was only one way to die for the stubborn resistance, but they still fought to the end in a small place.
Therefore, although the overall situation has been decided, Wu Weiyi still looked worried at this time. What he is worried about now is to find out where Du Jiang is as soon as possible. He knew that if he did not take this opportunity to capture Du Jiang, the difficulties of Shu would not be stopped. The sky will not disappoint him. After a careful search, Wu Weiyi found Du Jiang on an "isolated island":
"Mr. Wu has met His Highness the Prince."
I saw Du Jiang sitting cross-legged on a stone bench, lowering his head. Although he was already wearing a disheveled face, as usual, his whole body still had a sensation. Hearing Wu Weiyi's voice, he just sneered, twisted his head back, sat there without saying a word, ignoring Wu Weiyi. Seeing that Du Jiang was still so stubborn today, Wu Weiyi shook his head after he bowed and continued to say to him:
"Your Highness, Wu once told Your Highness that 'Weapons are the most fierce weapon in the world'. Using too much military force will harm others and oneself. Today, this statement is fulfilled? The prince could have been relieved to inherit the title of the king. Wu really didn't know what the reason was for, and he insisted on killing his sister? Even if you are not the biological flesh and blood of the previous king, the previous king treats you as if he is his own descendant. Both the previous king and the princess trust you so much. Wouldn't it be heartbreaking to act like you?!"
Du Jiang raised his head slightly, glanced at Wu Weiyi with a squint, and heard his low voice and spoke like an order:
"The surname of Wu! Take me to see Princess Nishiori. I want to meet Du Yu alone!"
Wu Weiyi was shocked at first when he heard Du Jiang say this. However, he did not dare to neglect, so he asked someone to take Du Jiang down. Du Jiang was taken by the guards all the way:
"Let me go! I am the King of Shu now! Although the defeated general has no courage, I cannot suffer such humiliation here! Please help me!"
The left and right guards escorting Du Jiang were hesitant when they heard his scolding. They looked at Wu Weiyi with their eyes, hoping that Wu Weiyi would take the matter. Wu Weiyi looked at Du Jiang and thought to himself:
"Forget it... I'm wrong, after all, he is also the princess's brother. It's really rude to treat people from the royal family in this way."
So Wu Weiyi winked at the two of them and asked him to untidy the hemp rope on Du Jiang. As soon as Du Jiang was untied, he immediately reached into his cuff. Wu Weiyi's guards were shocked when they saw each other and raised their long spear to him to show their vigilance.
Du Jiang looked around, then sneered, then lowered his head and took out an object from his cuffs calmly. Everyone looked at his hands and found that it was the Holy Fire Teeth Sword. He threw it to Wu Weiyi in a very light statement:
"This is a military talisman in Shu. When you see this thing, you will be as if you have seen me. Take it with you, and the other generals will obey your arrangements when they see it. These soldiers in Shu are brothers who have been with me for many years, and some of them cannot be threatened by your life. This defeat is all the faults of me alone and have nothing to do with my soldiers. If they lose their lives here, it is not worth it."
After Du Jiang finished speaking, he glared at Wu Weiyi, then turned around and stood at the front, closed his eyes and focused, and stopped talking. Wu Weiyi did not dare to look at him anymore, but just retreated respectfully. After that, with this object, all the remaining soldiers from all over the Shu Kingdom surrendered one after another, and there were no more people who continued to resist stubbornly.
