Creating a Different World - Chapter 2575

[Chapter 2575 Water Attack]

As for the barbarian camp, after returning in a hurry, they thought carefully and soon understood.

I didn’t think much about it on the battlefield just now, but now I feel something is wrong.

The opponent doesn’t look like a wizard at all, and those magics don’t seem to be cast by one person. I’m afraid I’ve been fooled by the opponent again.

The barbarian commander was very angry. He was fooled twice in such a short period of time, and the opponent looked like a young girl who had just reached adulthood. It was a great shame.

In anger, he ordered the whole army to cook, eat and drink enough, and then go to bed early, preparing to sneak attack Silver City in the middle of the night, break through the city again, capture that hateful little girl, and make her pay for her behavior.

On the other side, all the soldiers and civilians in Silver City worked together to repair the holes in the city wall. All civilians were temporarily armed and led by the “descendants of heroes”. They were full of confidence.

You know, the Celt family once blocked the enemy army that was ten times larger than him under absolute disadvantages, and finally held on until the Dawn Front Alliance Army won. Now it’s just a barbarian army. It has been scared away twice in a row. What’s there to be afraid of?

In short, morale is high, which is completely different from before.

The military and civilians are united, and the defense forces of the four city gates strive to achieve a balance, ensuring that the enemy’s surprise attack cannot break in at the first time, giving the main force time to mobilize assistance. The

key points outside the city are full of magic traps, all of which were 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 Tronny was still quite worried: “Miss Mashi, will the barbarians really attack the city tonight?”

“That’s for sure!” Jia Zhengjin nodded, “Just now I asked my companions to release the falcon for reconnaissance. The barbarian army had dinner early and rested in the camp. I’m afraid they are going to sleep until late at night and attack us when we are exhausted! Therefore, in addition to the teams on duty at the four city gates, the main force also goes to bed early after dinner to try to recover some physical strength to deal with any possible situation.”

“That makes sense!” Tronny breathed a sigh of relief, “Fortunately Dante sent you here, otherwise Silver City would be really in danger! It’s my honor to get support from the descendants of the Celtic family!”

Obviously everyone here believed it and thought he was a descendant of the Celtic family, which was a good thing for Jia Zhengjin.

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

Jia Zhengjin looked at Count Tronny and immediately turned around to meet him.

“What’s going on?” Tronny asked anxiously.

Looney quickly took out a piece of wet kraft paper from his arms and carefully handed it to Jia Zhengjin: “My Lord Earl, Miss Mashi! I have fulfilled my mission and successfully obtained the information.”

“Quick, take a look!” Tronny urged anxiously.

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

On the kraft paper was a map that Looney had drawn temporarily. Although some places were crooked and the style was not good, at least it was understandable.

“So the barbarians are stationed on the banks of the Gulis River?” Tronny only took a look at the simple map and immediately understood, “They are blocked by the woods and cannot be seen from here. But in fact, they are very close to us. If we launch a surprise attack at night, it will be very 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 it is convenient to get water on the spot.” Tronny said, “Since we are so close, why don’t we take advantage of the other side’s rest and launch a surprise attack first?”

“No!” Jia Zhengjin immediately denied it after hearing it, “My Lord Earl, this will only be a disadvantage. We have fewer troops than the barbarians, and can only rely on traps and city walls to defend ourselves. It is not suitable for field combat. Giving up our own advantages is tantamount to cutting off our own retreat!”

“That makes sense!” Earl Tronny 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 at the simple map drawn by Looney carefully, thinking constantly, and suddenly pointed to a corner of the simple map, “Is this the upper reaches of the Gulis River? It is not drawn in detail on the map. What is the situation in the upper reaches?”

Looney was about to answer, but Count Tranny said first: “Miss Mashi, the upper reaches of the Gulis River is Lake Lorod!”

“Lake Lorod?” Jia Zhengjin pointed to a place connected to the upper reaches, “What is this?”

“The area connecting the Gulis River and Lake Lorod. The lake water pours out from here and forms a river flowing down, which is the so-called Gulis River.”

“I see,” Jia Zhengjin snapped his fingers and smiled, “I suddenly have a good idea!” “What

idea?” Tranny and Looney said almost in unison.

“Flood the Seven Armies!”

“Flood the Seven Armies? What does it mean?” Not only Tranny and Looney, but also the officers present, except Jia Zhengjin and his wives, who had never heard of the allusion of the parallel earth, were all 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 garrison is half soldiers and half civilians, and there are a lot of old, weak, women and children. A head-on confrontation or even a garrison battle is extremely difficult. But the barbarians stationed their camp on the banks of the Gulis River, giving us an excellent opportunity! As long as we take advantage of their rest, we can secretly destroy the connection between the Gulis River and the Lorlod Lake, causing the lake water to lose control and pour out madly, and then it will become a flood, rushing through while the barbarian army is sleeping, and it will be impossible to defend against it!”

“What a good plan!” Tronni shouted excitedly, “Miss Mashi is really amazing. A flood is better than thousands of troops. We can wipe out the barbarian army without losing a single soldier. Great!”

“But Miss Mashi, it’s not easy to destroy the connection between the Gulis River and the Lorlod Lake!” Looney 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 then there will be no chance for us.”

“That makes sense!” Tronny frowned and turned to look at Jia Zhengjin, “Miss Mashi, our people will still be in trouble if they leave the city and 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, we are not that weak.” Jia Zhengjin smiled, “It is convenient to move with fewer people and will not wake up the barbarian army. What’s more, Tina and I are both magicians, and it is easy to destroy the connection!”
