"Despicable villain!" Tuo Gude wanted to kill Tie He.

He agreed to stay and guard Daokougou in the first place because he had negotiated good terms with Tiehe.

Now Tiehe did not violate those conditions, but used insidious tricks to win over the warriors of various tribes... How is this different from directly annexing those tribes? !

Tuogude saw through Tiehe's plot and became anxious, so he wanted to severely damage the Daokougou camp. When Dachu had no chance to backfire, he withdrew and returned to Dayong, killed Tiehe and defended his and his brother-in-law's tribe. , to win those warriors back.

But he struggled with the witch army for several months, and when he saw that the tunnel was about to be dug, he was discovered by the cheap Chu soldiers again!

Tuo Gude was furious. Thinking of what happened in Beicang Mansion, he looked across the Poisonous Ditch and asked, "Is that the big port guard?"

Hu Ang replied: "Exactly, the soil in this big port is looser, making it easier to dig tunnels."

The soil is also loose in Shaliuwei, and they also dug tunnels leading to Shaliuwei.

"Did Qianhu of the Great Port Guard discover the tunnel?" Tuogude's eyes turned cold and he said with a ferocious expression: "Let me check it out and see what extraordinary abilities this Great Port Guard's Qianhu has? What are his weaknesses? ?!”

After finding out, he will kill this lowly Chu Qianhu and his whole family without a place to bury him!

"Yes." Hu Ang responded and begged again: "Master, why don't you stop for a moment and see if the land on the other side will be inspected across the board? If they don't check, it means they didn't find the tunnel, or they only found one. They thought we only dug a tunnel... If we suddenly attack without any reason, and if we attack for such a long time, the other side will definitely be suspicious."

However, Tuogude did not agree: "Continue to fight and beat them until they are confused and confused about our arrangements."

He had already been beaten, but if he stopped suddenly, it would only arouse more suspicion.

Therefore, this sudden attack lasted for four consecutive days, which alarmed Xu You. He thought that the Rong bandits were about to attack Da Chu, so he hurriedly led an army of 100,000 to kill him.

When Xu You arrived, Tuo Gude immediately stopped his troops and found a perfect reason for his inexplicable attack: "Hahahaha, stupid and cheap Lord Chu, how does it feel to be teased by this king?! "

Tuogude stood on the other side of the poisonous insect ditch and shouted. He also wrote a letter mocking Xu You and Jiang Wangang, and asked the soldiers to throw slings at the opposite side.

Tuo Gude's wording was very bad, involving Xu You's woman and daughter, which made Xu You extremely angry after seeing it, and he couldn't help but wonder to himself...could this sudden attack be just Tuo Gude's attempt to tease him? ?

Jiang Wankang was not so easy to fool. He told Qin Sanlang and Xie Cheng that there was a tunnel under the poisonous insect ditch.

"Is this true?!" Xu You was shocked and asked Jiang Wankang.

Jiang Wankang nodded: "It's absolutely true. When the general withdrew with the shield soldiers, he looked back at the wooden pillar. It was indeed sunken. The ground is definitely empty."

"Dig!" Xu You ordered: "Start digging from the Dabuwei side, dig to the bottom of the Poisonous Insect Ditch, and see if there is a tunnel?!"

With an order, the army brought by Xu You started to move. Under the guidance of Master Craftsman Yu, they spent a day and a night digging out hundreds of shovels, and finally dug out one from top to bottom, then turned around and headed towards The tunnel inside the Poisonous Insect Ditch comes from.

He dug until he reached the sunken wooden pillar and then stopped.

What is surprising is that the soil layer where the wooden pillars sank is not empty, but solid.

"What's going on? Didn't the Rong people dig tunnels towards us? Did Qin Sanlang lie to Xie Cheng?" Xu You asked.

But Jiang Wankang believed Qin Sanlang and Xie Cheng because he saw the wooden pillar sink with his own eyes: "Master Hou, the soldiers attacked us for four days for no reason. During these four days, the soldiers probably filled up the tunnel. , let us think that the authentic things are fake... let Craftsman Yu go down and have a look first, he has enough experience and can look at the soil layer, and we will talk after he looks at it. "

Xu You nodded, it was indeed possible.

And he not only asked Master Craftsman Yu to go down to see it, but also asked two other experienced craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry to go down and see it together.

After an hour of tossing, the three great craftsmen came up and said in unison: "Reporting to Mr. Xu, there is indeed a tunnel under the poisonous insect ditch, but it has been filled up and the soil has been compacted... However, regardless of the dug soil, It can be seen that the soil layer is different from the naturally occurring soil layer."

"Despicable soldiers and beasts actually dug tunnels!" Xu You was furious and asked the three master craftsmen: "Is there any way to prevent soldiers from digging tunnels and sneak attacks?"

The three great craftsmen pointed to the six wooden pillars and said, "We can lay a row of deep wooden pillars next to our ditch to stop the soldiers from digging tunnels."

Xu You frowned: "What if they sawed off the wooden pillar when they dug it?"

Craftsman Yu replied: "You can put a batch of bells inside the wooden pillars. Once there is an external force to saw the wooden pillars, the bells will make a sound to notify us."

This method was used by the previous dynasty, but the previous dynasty used iron pillars instead of wooden pillars... When the previous dynasty was at the peak of its national power, many of these iron pillars were buried under the city gate of Longshan Mansion. To prevent the soldiers from digging tunnels and attacking them.

However, Dachu is now poor, and the trenches made by poisonous insects are too long. There is not so much iron to waste, so wooden pillars can only be used.

"Just do it!" Xu You officially ordered. Because of this order, the soldiers of Daokougou Camp almost went crazy from exhaustion before the Chinese New Year.

However, these are all things for later, there is one more important thing now.

"Shilang Zhao, you people from the Ministry of Industry should immediately check along the long ditch of poisonous insects to see if there are other tunnels underground? Tuogude is cunning and there is no way he only dug one tunnel." Xu You ordered Shilang Zhao of the Ministry of Works.

This kind of ordering officials in the capital made Xu You feel like he had ascended the throne and became the emperor.

Zhao Shilang frowned slightly, feeling a little uncomfortable, but he still responded: "Yes, I will make arrangements right away."

After saying that, he summoned all the craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry and asked Xu You for help from soldiers and horses. Then he started to dig wooden pillars along the Du Chong ditch and check the soil layer.

This is a big job, and the results won't come soon. You'll have to wait.

But regardless of whether they find a new tunnel or not, Qin Sanlang and the others have made a contribution.

Xu You was very satisfied and asked them: "What reward do you want, tell me."

Qin Sanlang did not talk to Xie Cheng about rewards, but they talked about Lin Qianhu's disobedience, Lin Qianhu's refusal to leave the guard post after Xie Cheng arrived at Dabu Guard, and Zhuang Qianhu's lawsuit against him. .

Jiang Wankang is a capable man. After so many days, he has learned from the soldiers under Lin Qianhu's command that Lin Qianhu deliberately offended Mrs. Xie Cheng.

Although Xie Ji was not really harmed, what Jiang Wanzang couldn't stand the most was someone daring to take advantage of his fellow women!

He whispered to Xu You for a while and told him about the evil things Lin Qianhu had done.

Xu You was also a ruthless man and directly ordered: "Since Lin Youzhi resisted and disobeyed the decree, he should be killed to show His Majesty's power!"
