Chapter 619
"My lord, do you feel that beneath our feet... it seems to be shaking?"
Ju Shou frowned and turned to ask Yuan Shao.
"This..."
Hearing what Ju Shou said.
Yuan Shao's body suddenly shook!
Ju Shou was right.
Beneath their feet, it was really trembling!
"N-not good!"
Ju Shou thought of a situation that was extremely terrifying, but also truly very likely to happen.
It was mentioned earlier that Jiuyuan Commandery in Bingzhou and Julu Commandery in Jizhou were adjacent to each other in this era.
But there was no doubt.
The altitude of Jiuyuan Commandery in Bingzhou was much higher than that of Julu Commandery in Jizhou.
This led to the fact that the river flow passing through Jiuyuan Commandery in Bingzhou flowed in the direction of Julu Commandery in Jizhou.
People go to high places, water flows to low places.
The magnificent and majestic Yellow River passes through several large provinces in succession.
Bingzhou and Jizhou are both important large provinces around the Yellow River.
Due to the terrain.
The Yellow River, like other rivers, flows from high places to low places.
And the true source of the Yellow River is located in the northern range of the Bayan Har Mountains on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
After coming out of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, it flows through several regions.
But the water flow in the upper reaches of the Yellow River is too turbulent.
Feudal dynasties mostly utilized the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River water.
The core turning point where the middle reaches flow to the lower reaches is exactly the two locations of Jiuyuan Commandery and Shangdang Commandery in Bingzhou.
The Yellow River, aside from its main water flow, also possesses quite a few tributaries.
The Yellow River water passing through Shangdang Commandery is considered the main stream of the Yellow River.
And the one passing through Jiuyuan Commandery is a tributary of the Yellow River.
However.
Even for a tributary of the Yellow River, the water force is still not something that ordinary rivers can compare to.
Furthermore.
Now is the "summer flood" period of the Yellow River.
This so-called "summer flood" is also known as the summer flood season.
It often occurs from July to August every year and is the main flood season of the Yellow River.
At the same time, it is also the most turbulent one among the several flood seasons of the Yellow River!
Gu Yi hadn't been idle at all these days.
He sent half of his troops, handed them over to several generals under his command, and divided them into six teams to launch attacks on the location of the coalition army's camp.
But this was just a flaw deliberately revealed.
To put it bluntly.
The purpose of the feigned attack was precisely to enhance the self-confidence of Yuan Shao and the others.
To make them arrogant, to make them crazy!
For this reason, Gu Yi even sent several victories to Yuan Shao, Ta Dun, Zhang Yan, and the others.
But the remaining portion of the troops under Gu Yi's command.
Were responsible for digging diversion channels.
Attempting to divert the Yellow River water passing through Jiuyuan Commandery to this side.
Of course, it wasn't to divert all the water of that tributary of the Yellow River.
But diverting just a portion was enough to complete the next plan.
This has the same effect as the Battle of Xiangfan in original history.
During the Battle of Xiangfan in original history.
Guan Yu utilized the rising water levels of the Fan River and the Han River, dug diversion channels, flooded the seven armies, captured Yu Jin, and beheaded Pang De.
At the same time, Fancheng, where Cao Ren was stationed, was also submerged by the great water, and the city fell into a desperate situation.
But this strategy was uglified by countless marketing accounts in later generations.
For example, countless extreme and fanatical fans of Yu Jin believed that Guan Yu just had good luck, utilized the heavy rain, and defeated Yu Jin.
Otherwise, how could a mere Guan Er-gouzi be Yu Jin's opponent?
Uh...
Yu Jin's status in the Cao camp was indeed very high.
But... being beaten up and defeated by Guan Yu is also an undeniable fact.
As for whether Guan Yu just had good luck and didn't use the water attack strategy, this is actually very easy to judge.
If Guan Yu really just had good luck and didn't use the water attack strategy.
Then why did the great water only submerge Yu Jin and not Guan Yu?
Could it be that Guan Yu knows "Water Escape"?
Therefore.
Yu Jin falling into a trap and being beaten up by Guan Yu is an undeniable fact that cannot be washed away no matter how you try.
And.
Before Yu Jin fell into the trap.
In the records about Pang De in historical books, it was also clearly written that Pang De tried to dissuade Yu Jin, advising him to change the location of his stationed troops.
