Chapter 600 Water disaster

This Sun Quan boy, who caught time so coincidental, did he know that his actions were not going to be done? Is there an insider in the team?

It’s no wonder that Cao Cao is suspicious. This is indeed the thing that Cao Cao has been most worried about recently. As Yuan Shao unifies the north, he may go south to attack Cao Cao’s territory at any time. In Cao Cao’s camp, there are definitely many people who secretly communicate with Yuan Shao’s letters in private. Do you really think that Cao Cao didn’t hear any news?

However, because of concerns that he would cause greater unrest, Cao Cao kept holding back and not checking. Among them, those who were secretly contacting Yuan Shao might even include Emperor Xian of Xu Du!

On the other hand, the growth of the Sun family in Jiangdong also made people panic in Cao Cao's camp. Cao Cao had absolutely reason to believe that under his command, someone must have secretly joined the Sun family. Just like in Jiangdong, there are also Cao Cao's people.

At that time, Sun Quan was worried that Lu Bu's main force would cross the river and make dumplings, so he stationed the military camp in the east of Xiapi City, and the last attack was also the East Gate. Cao Cao came from Sishui River and was divided into the east and west sides of Xiapi City with Sun Quan, so he did not notice any signs of fighting at all.

"Chen is talking about the capture, and we didn't hear any news in advance. It seems that someone helped Sun Quan open the city gate." Xun You said worriedly.

"After this, someone helped me, I'm afraid Sun Quan had already reached the center of Xia Pi City." Cao Cao frowned, and now he was really called his most difficult moment.

"What else did Chen say?" Cao Cao couldn't help but ask.

"Chen asked the lord to lead his troops there as soon as possible. He can help stop Sun Quan." The reporter replied.

"As soon as possible..." Cao Cao murmured, looking back at the river, his troops had just passed halfway.

If everyone has passed through Sishui, it will definitely be too late. Then, use this half-man to rush to Xia Pi first?

As if seeing through Cao Cao’s thoughts, Guo Jia spoke,

"Half of the troops, compared with the Jiangdong Army, are only half a dozen, and do not have any advantage. What's more, we are moving all the way and crossing the river at night. We are exhausted by boats and cars. If we forcefully start a war, we may end up with the disadvantage."

"In addition." Xun You also spoke up, "Chen may be able to drag Sun Quan apart, but he cannot control the city gate. If we go here, if we are blocked by the city gate, we may have helped Sun Quan in the city."

Cao Cao nodded and sighed,

"Yes, since Sun Quan knew in advance that we were coming, how could he not be prepared? Sun Tzu's Art of War is not a joke. Don't end up losing anything, but losing a lot here."

As he said that, Cao Cao paused, his face struggled a little, "But I'm really unwilling to let me leave like this!" Cao Cao said gritting his teeth.

"Master, we are very unwilling to accept it either! It's obviously only one step away. Or, it's okay to give it a try? It's so frustrating to go back like this!"

"Yes, even if we can't take Xuzhou, we can't let that child Sun Quan live a better life!" The generals below said.

"Can't fight!" Guo Jia stopped him directly, "Since there is no profit, any damage we have is unwise."

These military generals were about to scold Guo Jia, a literati, but Guo Jia smiled and said,

"Of course, there is a way for you to vent your anger."

Next to him, Xun You whispered to Cao Cao with a serious look on his face.

"Lord, you should understand that since you have missed it here, no matter what Fengxiao wants to do, it will not change the overall situation. After you go back, there are some things that should be prepared."

Cao Cao nodded, his eyes always placed in the direction of Xia Pi, full of regrets.

"It is not difficult to form an alliance with Yuan Shao. If you are afraid, Yuan Shao will make some excessive demands." Cao Cao said in a deep voice.

"Yuan Shao will definitely make excessive demands!" Xun You said firmly. This excessive demand may include taking Cao Cao's son as a hostage. It is even more likely that Yuan Shao will let Cao Cao move the capital to Yecheng and send Emperor Xian to him!

Here, in Xiapi City,

When Sun Quan was leading his army to confront Chen and other gentry, suddenly, a commotion came from a distance, and then a wave of water about the height of his calf rushed over with an unstoppable posture.

"What's going on?" Everyone at the scene was in chaos. Although the current wave height would not have much impact on the people here, this emergency situation was too abnormal.

“Where does the water come from?”

In a major city, so much water suddenly popped up. Looking at the endless appearance, I don’t know how many of them are. When everyone was confused, Sun Quan suddenly remembered something.

"Cao Cao, I c******"

"What's going on?" Diao Chan asked, pulling Sun Quan.

"The Si Shui River broke through!" Sun Quan said with a dark face.

Diao Chan's expression also changed.

"Did Cao Cao do it?"

"Who else can I have besides him!" Sun Quan smiled coldly, "Look, someone is even more cruel than me."

After saying that, Sun Quan immediately arranged it

"Send people to protect the granary first, and be sure to save more food to a high place!"

Xuzhou is the granary of the world, and Xia Pi City is the center of Xuzhou. Sun Quan also hopes that the food and grass here will conquer the world and cannot be damaged.

"Master Zhi Qian, I'll ask you Buddhist disciples to help you in the disaster relief in the city. In addition, you take my handwriting and let someone cook all the soaked food and distribute it directly to the people."

"Amitabha, this is my Buddhist responsibility." Zhi Qian bowed to Sun Quan and immediately summoned Buddhist disciples to leave. They had done a lot of disaster relief, and the people of Xia Pi believed in Buddhism more, which was more conducive to stabilizing the people's hearts.

"Finally!" Sun Quan put his cold eyes on Chen's gentry, "The people you are waiting for have abandoned you and will not come. If you want to gain a foothold in Xuzhou in the future, please immediately call my clan members to block Sishui for me! I will go and watch it myself. The amount of efforts of each family will directly determine your future status in Xuzhou! This is the last chance for you to wait for, so take it seriously."

Sun Quan did not bring many people here this time. Xia Pi Xinde, the situation was not stable, and the Jiangdong army must stay in the city so that there will be no chaos.

The Xia Pi gentry was a huge force, asking them to repair the embankment. First, they were locals who were more familiar with the terrain and water flow; second, they also spent these uncertain factors on the city, which made it more convenient for Sun Quan to stabilize the situation.

In addition, Sun Quan was not afraid that these gentry were slanderous and did not work hard. Without mentioning what he had just said, he said that Xia Pi was hit by disaster and suffered the greatest losses, which was the local gentry. I am afraid that they would like to block the water as soon as possible and restore production to normal.

Some people were shaken, some took the lead, some couldn't wait, and some couldn't wait. Soon, the offensive and defensive alliance formed by Chen temporarily disintegrated. Although many people were forced to compromise, at least on the surface, everyone stood on Sun Quan's side.
