Chapter 2575 Water Attack

But he said that in the barbarian camp, after hurriedly returning, he thought carefully and quickly understood.

I didn't think much about it on the battlefield just now, but now I realized something was wrong.

The other party didn't look like a magician at all, and those spells didn't look like they were cast by one person. I'm afraid I was deceived by the other party again.

The barbarian commander was very angry. He was hit twice in this short period of time, and his opponent seemed to be just a young girl. It was a great shame and humiliation.

Out of anger, he ordered the whole army to cook in pots, eat and drink before going to bed early, preparing to attack Baiyin City in the middle of the night, break through the city again, capture the hateful little girl, and make her pay for her actions.

On the other side, all the soldiers and civilians of Silver City worked together to repair the holes in the city wall, and all the civilians were temporarily armed. Under the leadership of the "descendants of heroes", they were full of confidence.

You must know that the Celtic family once held off an enemy force ten times their size despite being at an absolute disadvantage, and finally managed to survive until the Dawn Front Allied forces were defeated. Now they are just a barbarian army. They have been scared away twice in a row. What else is there to fear?

All in all, the morale is high, which is completely different from before.

The army and the people work together and strive to achieve a balance between the defense forces of the four city gates, ensuring that the enemy's surprise attack cannot break through the gate immediately, giving the main force time to mobilize assistance.

Key areas outside the city are covered with magic traps, all of which were jointly created by Jia Zhengjin and Tina.

As hunters, Amy and Meng Xiaoting can also set some simple traps and are well prepared.

Everything was ready, but Count Trani was still quite worried: "Miss Mahi, will the barbarians really attack the city tonight?"

"That's for sure!" Jia Zhengjin nodded, "Just now I asked my companions to release the falcons for reconnaissance. The barbarian army had dinner early and rested in the camp. I'm afraid they were preparing to sleep until late at night and make a surprise attack when we were exhausted! So, we In addition to the teams on duty at the four city gates, the main force also goes to bed early after eating to try to recover some strength to deal with any possible situation. "

"It makes sense!" Troni breathed a sigh of relief. "Fortunately, Dante sent you here, otherwise Silver City would be really in danger! It is an honor for me to be supported by the descendants of the Celtic family!"

Apparently people here believed him to be true and thought he was a descendant of the Celtic family, which was a good thing for Jia Zhengjin.

"Miss Mahi!!" As they were talking here, Looney ran back with a team of 100 people sweating and panting, looking extremely tired.

Jia Zhengjin and Count Trani looked at each other and immediately turned around to greet him.

"How's it going?" Troni asked anxiously.

Looney quickly took out a piece of wet brown paper from his arms and carefully handed it to Jia Zhengjin: "Your Excellency, Miss Maxi! I have fulfilled my mission and successfully obtained the information."

"Quick, take a look!" Troni urged anxiously.

Jia Zhengjin opened the brown paper slowly and spread it on the table.

On the vellum is a makeshift map drawn by Looney. Although it is crooked in some places and the painting style is not good, it is at least understandable.

"It turns out that the barbarians are stationed on the banks of the Gulis River?" Trani only took a look at the simple map and understood immediately. "It is blocked by the woods and cannot be seen from here. But in fact, the other party is very close to us. If there is a surprise attack at night,

Quite dangerous! "

"Not far away?" Jia Zhengjin lowered his head and thought, "Just behind the forest in sight?"

"Yes! Behind the forest is the Gulis River. It is indeed a good place to camp and get water easily." Trani said, "Since we are so close, why don't we take advantage of the opponent's rest and send troops to attack first?"

"No!" Jia Zhengjin heard the words and immediately denied, "Your Majesty, this will only lead to a loss. Our troops are smaller than the barbarians, and we can only rely on traps and city walls to defend ourselves, which is not suitable for outdoor operations. Giving up our own advantages is tantamount to annihilating our retreat. !”

"That makes sense!" Count Trani thought for a moment and asked seriously, "Then what should we do? Or wait for the barbarian army to attack the city first?"

"Let me study the map first..." Jia Zhengjin looked carefully at the simple map drawn by Luni, thinking constantly, and suddenly pointed to the corner of the simple map, "Is this the upper reaches of the Gulis River? There are no details on the map. Draw it, what’s the situation upstream?”

Just as Luni was about to answer, Count Trani said first: "Miss Mahi, the upper reaches of the Gulis River is Lake Lolorde!"

"Lor Lode Lake?" Jia Zhengjin pointed to somewhere connected to the upper reaches, "What is this?"

"The area connecting the Gulis River and Lake Lolorde. The lake water pours out from here, forming a river going down, which is the so-called Gulis River."

"I see," Jia Zhengjin snapped his fingers with a smile on his face, "I suddenly had a good idea!"

"What's the idea?" Trani and Looney said almost in unison.

"The water flooded the Seventh Army!"

"Flooded the Seventh Army? What do you mean?" Not only Trani and Looney, but also other officers present, except Jia Zhengjin and his wives, who had not heard of the parallel earth allusion, all looked confused.

Seeing this situation, Jia Zhengjin explained: "To put it simply, it is to use water attack! The barbarian army has the advantage in numbers and strength. Our current city defense army is half soldiers and half civilians, and there are a lot of old, weak, women and children. It is extremely difficult to fight head-on or even defend the city. But the barbarians have set up camp on the banks of the Gulis River, giving us a great opportunity! As long as they take a rest, Secretly destroy the connection between the Gulis River and Lake Lorod, causing the lake water to pour out of control, and then turn into a flood, rushing through the barbarian army while they are asleep, and it is impossible to prevent it at all! "

"Good plan! ! "Tronny shouted excitedly, "Miss Mashi is really amazing, the flood is better than thousands of troops, and we can destroy the barbarian army without losing a single soldier. Great!"

"But Miss Mashi, it is not easy to destroy the connection between the Gulis River and Lake Lorod!" Luni said softly, "Unless our army is dispatched... But once the army leaves the city, the other side will definitely find out at such a close distance, and there is no chance for us at that time."

"There is some truth in this!" Tronny frowned when he heard it, and turned to look at Jia Zhengjin , "Miss Mashi, if our people leave the city, they will still be in trouble once they are discovered. Maybe they will be surrounded by the barbarians before they reach the connection. Unless the entire army can move silently without making any sound..."

"No need!" Jia Zhengjin waved his hand immediately, "The army continues to guard the castle, and the task of destroying the connection is handed over to me and my companions!"

"What? Such a dangerous mission, Miss Mashi is going to go in person?" Tronny was a little anxious, "What if something goes wrong..."

"Don't worry, Lord Earl, our strength is not that weak." Jia Zhengjin smiled, "It's easier to move with fewer people, and it won't wake up the barbarian army. Besides, Tina and I are both magicians, and it's easy to destroy the connection!"
