"Kong Ming obeys the order!"
The crowd dispersed.
Chen Gong approached Zhuge Liang who was about to leave, and fixed his eyes on him,
"Kong Ming, are you sure?"
Zhuge Liang shook his head slightly,
"not sure."
"Then why did you suggest to Duke Cao to dig a tunnel?"
Chen Gong was stunned.
"I am also helpless."
Zhuge Liang smiled wryly,
"Do you think we can capture Shouchun?"
Chen Gong was speechless.
If they had changed before, they were full of confidence and felt that they could win Shouchun.
However, Hua Xiong joined the battlefield in the middle and came to Shouchun in person, and the morale of the imperial army was strong.
It is easy to capture Shouchun.
"Since we can't win Shouchun, Duke Cao's actions are tantamount to weakening our troops.
Instead of this, it is better to try digging a hole, maybe it will have miraculous effects. "
Chen Gong smiled bitterly,
"Not to mention that the imperial court has scheming advisers like Guo Jia and Jia Xu, but Hua Xiong alone, do you think he can't predict it?"
"Who can tell? Maybe he overlooked this."
Zhuge Liang shrugged,
"Even if you can't take it down, you can delay the time through such a move."
"But what's the use of delaying time? Our goal is to win Shouchun and attack Luoyang directly from Yanzhou."
Chen Gong was dissatisfied.
"Brother Gongtai, what time is it, do you still think we can win Shouchun?"
The expression on Zhuge Liang's face was almost like looking at an idiot.
"You think we can't win Shouchun?"
"Nonsense, since Hua Xiong appeared in Shouchun, it means that we don't even want to break through the middle!"
Zhuge Liang rolled his big eyes.
"What you said is a bit too ambitious for others and destroys your own prestige."
"I'm just telling the truth. Now we can only hope that the left and right will make a breakthrough.
Otherwise, the best outcome of this crusade against Hua Xiong would be to return without success. "
Chen Gong was silent.
He is also a wise man.
It's not that he hasn't thought about Zhuge Liang's analysis.
It's just these words, how dare he say them on weekdays?
"I hope the tactics of digging tunnels can be successful."
Zhuge Liang patted Chen Gong on the shoulder.
2000 troops were quickly transferred to Zhuge Liang's command.
After half a day of calculations, he determined the angle and orientation of the hole, and ordered to start digging.
Sure enough, as Zhuge Liang analyzed before, the soil on the edge of Shouchun City is soft, soaked by heavy rain, it is very easy to dig.
Digging the tunnel went smoothly, and on the third day, it had already been dug under the city wall.
"Kong Ming, you did a great job!"
Cao Cao was overjoyed and praised repeatedly,
"If you can win Shouchun, you are a great hero!"
"Thank you, Mr. Cao, for your compliment."
Zhuge Liang arched his hands.
At this moment, the disheartened Chen Dao hurried into the camp.
"My lord, Cao Gong, Kong Ming's military advisor!"
He saluted the crowd.
Seeing Chen Dao, who was in charge of excavating the tunnel, looking so hurried, Cao Cao's heart tightened, and he said hastily,
"What's wrong?"
Chen Dao smiled wryly,
"After we dug to the foot of the city wall, we dug forward about twenty steps.
The soil suddenly became hard. After observation, we found that the soil was actually cement. "
what?
Everyone was taken aback.
Even Zhuge Liang's eyes widened.
Hua Xiong actually poured cement into the soil?
Could it be that he had expected in advance that the coalition forces would dig a hole?
Everyone was at a loss for a while, looking at Zhuge Liang, waiting for his idea.
Zhuge Liang rubbed his chin, thought for a while, and then said,
"Chen Dao, have you tried digging to the left and right sides?"
"Military division, I tried to extend five steps to the left and right, but there are still concrete blocks."
Chen Dao shook his head.
Zhuge Liang frowned.
"Military division, what do you think?"
Liu Bei said softly.
"My lord, Duke Cao. According to my guess, Hua Xiong poured cement underground to prevent someone from digging a tunnel."
Zhuge Liang analyzed,
"My suggestion is to immediately start digging up from the original place."
Everyone was stunned.
"If you dig upwards now, the hole will be at the root of the city wall."
Cao Cao said with some concerns.
According to the original plan, the exit of the tunnel should not be too close to the city wall, so as not to be noticed.
But at the same time, you can't stay too far away from the city wall, otherwise, you won't be able to take down the city wall in one fell swoop.
"There is a saying that wealth and wealth are sought in danger, so we can only gamble.
And pouring cement into the soil, the defenders in the city never expected that someone would dig a hole. "
Zhuge Liang said.
Cao Cao gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice,
"Everything is according to what Military Master Kong Ming said."
"Here!"
All the generals listened to the order in unison.
According to the plan in advance, Cao Cao's soldiers and horses stepped up to attack the city to cover them.
And Chen Dao led the white carpenter soldiers and waited in the tunnel.
Once the tunnel was dug through, they quickly rushed out and took down the city gate.
At that time, the inside and the outside should cooperate, and it will be easy to capture Shouchun City.
"hurry up!"
Chen Dao sternly ordered the soldiers in front.
They kept waving the shovels in their hands, and the dirt passed through the soldiers behind, passing it out little by little.
At this moment, a soldier suddenly felt that the top was empty, and a ray of fresh air was introduced into the tunnel.
"General, the tunnel has been dug."
The soldier said in a low voice.
Chen Dao was overjoyed, and quickly waved his hands to make the soldiers who were acting as coolies back away.
He picked up the shovel himself and dug a few more times.
A hole instantly appeared in front of him.
Chen Dao poked his head out and saw the city wall just a few steps away.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
But then, something suddenly felt wrong.
My side is acting at night, why can I see the city wall clearly?
Chen Dao froze and slowly adjusted his direction.
I saw densely packed soldiers standing not far away, and the torches in their hands illuminated the darkness.

"Chen Dao, how's it going, are you surprised or not?"
A familiar voice sounded, Chen Dao's eyes widened, and he saw Hua Xiong looking at him with a smile.
No, there is an ambush!
Chen felt cold behind his back, and subconsciously retracted his head again.
He returned to the tunnel and waited for a while, but no one came down from above his head.
Chen Dao breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, I was not careless, so I observed the situation first.
If you go straight up, I'm afraid that you will fold there.
"withdraw!"
Chen Dao waved his hand.
But before the soldiers behind started to move, there was a sudden sound of footsteps overhead.
Chen Dao had a bad feeling in his heart.
Then a stream of liquid slanted out from the cave above the head.
These liquids have been heated, and with a scalding heat wave, they spread across the surface.
What's more terrible is that the liquid is also mixed with a foul smell.
