Last night, Qin Yun had seen all the terrain changes in the Xilu Canyon over the past five years and found nothing unusual.
Upon hearing this, the generals immediately split up and sent their men to fetch the information.
Soon, He Ya arrived with a wooden box and opened it in front of everyone. There were countless books inside.
"Here are maps of the terrain around Xilu Canyon in different periods." He Ya said solemnly: "Persia had a lot of foreign trade before, so the map was updated very quickly."
Murong Shunhua took off a torch and approached the box. Qin Yun poured out the contents of the box and called the generals to start reading.
A group of generals squatted on the ground, looking through the album like they were picking up rags.
Suddenly, He Ya exclaimed and held up an atlas: "Your Majesty, here is an atlas recording the diversion of the river in the Xilu Canyon Plain!"
"What river?" Qin Yun frowned: "Isn't this a grassland? How can there be a river?"
Adolf, who had never dared to speak in fear, saw this and said cautiously: "Actually, there was a river here eight years ago."
Whoosh!
As soon as he said this, all the generals turned their eyes to him, and their eyes seemed to glow with green light.
"How did you know there was a river here?"
"Aren't you a slave?"
"Have you ever been to this plain?"
Faced with the questioning from the generals, Adolf was panic-stricken, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, my ancestors were once nobles here and were responsible for managing the area near the river on this plain."
Hearing this, Qin Yun and all the generals looked surprised.
The closest thing to Xilu Canyon is the Persian Imperial City. If the nobles who govern this place are definitely the top beings in Persia, how could they be reduced to the status of slaves?
"Your Majesty, I am willing to tell you everything I know, and I also ask your Majesty to give me a chance to restore the glory of the family!"
Adolf struggled to sit up, brought his knees together, buried his head deeply between his knees, and begged in an extremely humble manner.
"Are you negotiating terms with me?"
Qin Yun frowned slightly, stood up, and looked down from a high position: "No one can negotiate terms with me."
The majesty that belonged to Da Xiazi was naturally revealed. Murong Shunhua on the side saw his appearance and showed an expression of appreciation.
Although this man occasionally behaves indifferently in front of him, he will never make any concessions when it comes to big matters of right and wrong, especially when it comes to matters related to the bottom line.
Hearing this, Adolf said anxiously: "Your Majesty, I am not negotiating terms, I am begging for your Majesty's mercy!"
"Even without His Majesty's mercy, I will tell you everything I know without any concealment!"
It has to be said that Adolf is very good at giving Qin Yun steps, or he has an extremely keen sense of the emotions of the superiors.
Sensing the dissatisfaction in Qin Yun's heart, he immediately begged for mercy without any hesitation.
Qin Yun looked at Adolf and felt more and more that this guy had qualities that could be cultivated. He said slowly: "I will give you a chance to tell you the information you know. If it is really useful, I can consider it."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Adolf shouted his thanks with eyes wide open. Regardless of Qin Yun's real promise, he stood up and came to the map: "Your Majesty, there used to be two rivers on this plain."
Two rivers?
Hearing this, everyone in the audience was extremely surprised.
"Yes, these two rivers are both tributaries of the Danube River, but one passes through the open surface, and the other starts from the Xilu Canyon and runs through the entire plain."
He took the book that recorded the Xilu Canyon Plain, flipped through it for a while, and finally stopped on one of the pages.
"Five years ago, the river changed its course and the open river disappeared completely, but the underground river is still there. This river has been flowing under the plain for who knows how many years. Now there are water holes under the entire plain."
When he said this, Qin Yun slapped his hand on the table and shouted in shock: "Damn it, this bastard Barry is not going to blow up the plain, is he?"
boom!
As soon as these words came out, it was like thunder on the ground, and all the generals looked in disbelief.
"It's impossible. It's simply impossible to collapse the entire plain!"
"Even if you use gunpowder to blast it, it's impossible for the entire plain to collapse!"
"No, if there are enough water holes..." Gongsun Zhongmou suddenly said with a solemn expression: "As long as the key pillars are blown up, the plain may completely collapse!"
Hearing this, all the generals trembled and were shocked by Gongsun Zhongmou's words.
Many people stood up and immediately wanted to mobilize troops and evacuate the troops on the plain.
After Qin Yun pondered for a moment, he suddenly said: "Wait, don't rush to evacuate yet."
He turned to look at Adolf and said in a deep voice: "Since you know this place so well, you should be able to find the entrance to the water cave?"
"Yes, my father once taught me these things." Adolf nodded.
"If the plain is blasted, can only part of it collapse?" Qin Yun made a gesture: "For example, only the area where our main camp is located."
"This..." Adolf hesitated for a moment: "It should be possible, but it may cause a chain reaction. It depends on the structure of the water hole."
"Okay, whether you can relive your family's glory depends on your performance." Qin Yun waved his hand: "The entire army listened to the order, dispersed and retreated, except for the weapons, everything else is left here!"
"I want to see what Barry's expression will look like when he leads his troops into this place and sees that there is nothing here!"
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other with evil smiles on their faces.
"Your Majesty, this plan is very clever!"
"Your Majesty is indeed wise! We are truly amazed!"
"Your Majesty is as talented as an immortal in this world. I look up to the mountains, and my admiration for Your Majesty is like the surging river..."
The continuous compliments made Qin Yun blush a little. After enjoying it for a while, he said with a straight face: "Okay, stop talking nonsense here and get to work quickly."
As Qin Yun's order was passed down, the troops on the plain began to take action.
Led by the Xiang Army, they took the lead in withdrawing from the plains.
Then came the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, Shenji Camp, etc., following closely behind.
Of course, taking advantage of the darkness, everyone's actions were completely unnoticed. Only the bright moon in the sky watched everything silently.
Soon, most of the night passed.
The entire camp site became deserted. Only the crackling bonfires could prove that a huge army had been stationed here before.
The scouts sent out by Qin Yun also sent back news at this time.
"Your Majesty, we have found traces of cavalry activity in the surrounding areas!"
