    It rained heavily the next day, no lightning was seen, no thunder was heard, only dense raindrops fell from the sky.  More than an hour later, the rain still did not abate, and floods were left in various mountain streams.

    About ten miles upstream of the river valley where Liu Cong stationed his troops, a simple dam was built with sand and stone to collect the floodwaters flowing down the mountain together, forming a small pool.

    The water in the small pool was slowly rising. There was a military camp on the edge of the pool, and hundreds of soldiers were stationed inside. They kept reporting the changes in the water level to Zhang Yi, the county lieutenant in Mianzhu City.

    "God is really helping me!" In the county magistrate's house, Zhang Ni looked very excited.

    "Although the rain is lighter than before, it won't clear up for a while. By noon tomorrow, the accumulated rainwater, plus the small river on the tributary of Peijiang, will be enough to submerge Deng Ai's five thousand army. Bo Qi will make great achievements now.  !" Dong He said.

    "If we win this battle, I will report it to my lord truthfully." Zhang Ni is very trustworthy and will never take the credit of Dong He.

    "Although this battle can be won, Yizhou will be captured in the end" Dong He felt melancholy.

    "Youzai is worried about Liu Bei?"

    "Is there more than just Liu Bei?" Dong He smiled bitterly and shook his head, "In today's world, the weak eat the strong. If you don't think about making progress, you will eventually be destroyed. Not to mention Cao Cao in the north, Sun Quan in the Eastern Wu Dynasty may have annexed Yizhou long ago.  What¡¯s more, this time, my lord has rashly raised his troops, leaving the entire Yizhou empty. Don¡¯t you know that Ma Chao and Liu Bei have been looking down on my Yizhou for a long time. Even if we can escape this time, it will inevitably be destroyed in the end. "

    "Yizhou is a land of abundance. It has many soldiers, sufficient food and grass, and abundant talents. In addition, the roads are difficult and dangerous, and there are many passes blocking it. It is a place to achieve hegemony, but my lord is too conservative and does not want to make progress." Zhang Ni also seemed very serious.  have no choice.  Although he is only a county captain, he still has the dream of making great achievements and making his wife a wife.

    "Don't think too much, just fight the battle tomorrow." Dong He advised.

    "Youzai, would you like to send someone to explore the valley first?"

    "Although Deng Ai is good at making surprise moves, from the time he was stationed in the river valley, it can be seen that he is also a very cautious person. You can explore the situation, just observe it from a distance, so as not to alert the enemy!"

    "Okay, I'll make arrangements right away!"

    Hanzhong, outside Nanzheng City, Liu Bei¡¯s camp is stationed there.

    Since the failed attack on Yicheng, Liu Bei led his army back to Hanzhong.

    ?????????????????????????????????????Together with the siege, more than 5,000 soldiers and horses were lost.  Although five thousand troops and horses are not many, for Liu Bei, it is already straining his muscles and bones.  Liu Zhang had 30,000 troops stationed in Hanzhong, so he did not dare to attack Yicheng again.  In the final analysis, it was because he had too little capital.

    Liu Bei wrote a letter to Liu Zhang, which made Liu Zhang's eyes wet, so he ordered Fujun to allow Liu Bei to be stationed outside Nanzheng City, and Fujin was provided with food and grass. He would rest for a few days before returning to Nanzhong.

    "It's raining well!" Feeling the drizzle and looking at the vast land, Zhuge Liang thought thoughtfully, "I wonder if it also rains in Guanghan?"

    "Kong Ming, does it matter whether it rains or not in Guanghan?" Liu Bei asked.

    "My lord, if it rains in Guanghan, Deng Ai will be defeated this time!" Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan, "I watched the sky at night the day before yesterday and found that the Gang star was sinking in the west and the Beidou was erratic. For us, it is indeed a good omen, but there are still some hidden dangers in it.  There are variables, but if it rains heavily in Guanghan, there are no variables at all!"

    "Oh, what does this mean? Kong Ming, please explain?"

    "After Mianzhu County Lieutenant Zhang Ni received my letter, although he was able to detect the incoming Deng Ai army, he did not have many soldiers and horses. It was not easy to annihilate Deng Ai's army. Liang had traveled to Shuzhong and knew  There is a river valley outside Mianzhu City, where five thousand troops can be stationed. It is expected that Deng Ai will join his troops here. The river valley is usually dry, but if there is a heavy rain, and the tributaries of the Fujiang River are diverted, the river valley will be flooded and Deng Ai's entire army will be annihilated!"

    "Okay, okay!" Liu Bei was very excited when he heard this. "If you can get rid of Deng Ai, it will be like breaking Liu Cong's arm! But Zhang Yi, could you have thought of this plan? Why didn't Kong Ming tell him in advance?"

    "Now our relationship with the King of Shu is delicate. If we talk too much, it will arouse their suspicion." Zhuge Liang smiled, "Although Zhang Yi does not have such talent, Dong He, the magistrate of Mianzhu County, will definitely use this trick."

    "Dong He?"

    "Dong He was originally from Zhijiang, Nanjun, Jingzhou, and had some contacts with Liang. Although this man was not well-known, he was full of talents and learning. Because Liu Biao, the herdsman of Jingzhou, did not take him seriously at that time, his family moved west to Yizhou."Recommended by Fei Guan, Liu Zhang successively appointed him as the magistrate of Fucheng, Zitong County, and now Mianzhu County.  "

    "It's a pity that such a great talent is the magistrate of Mianzhu County, it's a pity" Liu Bei sighed after hearing this.

    "My lord is thirsty for talents, Liang promises, Dong He will return to my lord sooner or later!"

    "If so, thank you for your help!"

    "This is a matter of honor!"

    "Kong Ming, Yizhou is empty, when can we move?"

    "We can move tomorrow!"

    "Tomorrow?" Liu Bei frowned, "Didn't Kong Ming say yesterday how many more days would be needed?"

    "The so-called time, location, and harmony are so-called. The weather was sunny yesterday and rainy today. This is the right time!" Zhuge Liang smiled and shook his feather fan. "The letter I wrote to Zhang Yi was revealed to Fujin. And tomorrow Zhang Yi  Yi and Dong He will definitely take action. I have already sent someone pretending to be a scout from Shu. They will come from Guanghan County tomorrow to inform Fujun that Deng Ai has been wiped out. Fujin will naturally eliminate the suspicion of the lord and  Inviting the lord to a banquet in the city, we only need to let Chen Dao kill Fu Jin during the banquet, and then let Zhang Fei control the soldiers and horses in the city. In this way, Nanzheng will be at your fingertips!"

    "This plan is feasible, but" Liu Bei's eyes were still full of worry, "Then Dingjun Mountain, Yang'an Pass, Baishui Pass, etc. are all Shu troops!"

    "At that time, my lord will lead an army of 10,000 to garrison in Nanjun City, and Zhang Fei will lead an army of 10,000 to garrison outside the city, forming a horn-like force. In addition, with sufficient food and grass, no matter how many Shu troops there are, they will not be able to break through the city. At this time, Yun Chang led the army out.  Yongchang, rush north to attack the four counties of Jianning, Jianwei, Yuexun, and Xangqi. Ma Chao leads his army to counterattack and attack Zitong, Guanghan, and Shu counties. At this time, Liu Zhang will definitely withdraw his troops from Hanzhong!"

    "Okay!" Liu Bei looked excited, "With Hanzhong and half of Yizhou, I can compete with Sun Quan, Liu Cong, and Cao Cao in the world!"

    "More than half of Yizhou?" Zhuge Liang smiled, "Although Ma Chao is brave, he has no plan. When the time comes, Liang will definitely let his lord lead the entire Yizhou!"

    "I have Kong Ming, it's like a fish in water!" Liu Bei said happily.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
