System Blessing: The Young Master of the Dong Family and Diao Chan's Fate

Zhou Yu, wearing a straw raincoat, encouraged his soldiers.

"drink!"

Upon hearing that there would be a huge reward, the soldiers immediately raised their weapons excitedly.

Hearing this, Zhou Yu smiled with satisfaction and continued to move forward.

"General, Fancheng is less than twenty miles away."

"It's strange, for some reason, I've only seen Dong Jun's scouts once along the way."

Zhou Tai said with a puzzled look, holding a big knife.

"I guess the fighting on the front lines is intense."

"They don't have that much energy to monitor our military's movements."

Zhou Yu explained with a faint smile.

"Grand Commander, listen, why does it feel like... a huge army is rushing towards us?"

Jiang Qin put his hands on his ears and closed his eyes to listen forward.

"What? Let me hear it!"

Zhou Yu frowned and immediately put his hands on his ears.

Rumbling--

"It sounds a bit like thunder...hiss, could it be the cavalry?"

"No, there's a sound of water... Oh no, run!"

Zhou Yu suddenly opened his eyes and immediately realized something was wrong.

Rumbling--

The roaring water dragon came roaring.

At first glance, it looks like a huge wave coming towards you.

"Run away!"

“It’s a flood!”

"Run away!"

The Jiangdong soldiers cried out in alarm and hurriedly ran north.

Compared with the south, the terrain on the north is higher and the chance of survival is greater.

This is the adaptability of people who live in areas with rivers all year round.

If it were a northerner, he would probably be scared silly at the first moment.

Having said that, how can a human catch up with the flow of water?

hula-

The flood came in a flash, and Zhou Yu was swept into the water after running only a hundred meters.

"Save Gululu!"

Zhou Yu was struggling in the water, popping his head out from time to time.

"Dadu Guludu!"

"Protect Big Guludu!"

However, Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai, Xu Kun and others were not having an easy time either.

Everyone is equal in the face of floods.

Even if they can swim, what’s the use of knowing how to swim in such a turbulent river?

Because he was shot by an arrow before, Zhou Yu specially wore a set of armor with good protective effect.

I originally thought that I wouldn't have to worry about being hit by stray arrows, but at this moment, the armor became a death warrant.

In the water, Zhou Yu was completely dizzy.

Because of the weight, even though he could swim, he was falling rapidly into the water.

Fortunately, Zhou Yu still retained a bit of rationality and quickly began to take off his armor.

The rest of the soldiers were not having an easy time either. The troops led by Zhou Yu were the most elite troops in Jiangdong.

Although the armor rate cannot be compared with that of Dong’s army, about 30% of the soldiers are equipped with crotch armor.

Nearly 30,000 troops were now floating in the water.

Even Xu Kun and others didn't care about Zhou Yu anymore and began to desperately try to take off their armor in the water.

"Ah ah!"

The first one to take off his armor was Zhou Tai. He surfaced as soon as he finished and threw the chain mail into the distance happily.

"I'm...ah!"

Zhou Yu finally untied his armor and was about to shout when he felt a pain in his head and lost consciousness.

"Grand Governor!"

"Grand Commander, don't panic, Zhou Tai is here!"

When Zhou Tai heard Zhou Yu's scream, he immediately looked over.

Zhou Yu's head was half exposed on the rippling water surface.

He swam towards Zhou Yu desperately, and with the help of the water flow, Zhou Tai soon arrived beside Zhou Yu.

Holding Zhou Yu, Zhou Tai looked at the small mound that he could vaguely see behind him and immediately swam over with all his might.

At this water flow speed, swimming becomes a weight loss exercise...which consumes a lot of physical energy.

Although it is inevitable to be washed downstream during the swimming process, fortunately, there are still many mounds.

"Ah... I'm so tired."

Zhou Tai dragged Zhou Yu ashore and collapsed to the ground.

After taking a look at Zhou Yu, whose life or death was unknown, Zhou Tai immediately got up and began pressing Zhou Yu's stomach with both hands.

"puff--"

"puff--"

"Puff—hiss~"

"Oh, my head hurts."

Zhou Yu vomited several times before rubbing his head and waking up.

"Grand Commander, are you okay?"

Zhou Tai looked at Zhou Yu with concern.

"It's Youping. It's great to have you."

"Where are the soldiers?"

"How are they?"

Zhou Yu sat up, covering his head, and asked.

"I didn't see it. There are only two of us on this mound."

"The army... the army is gone."

"My brothers, Gong Yi, Gong Yi!!"

Zhou Tai had a sad face and tears started streaming down his face.

Among these 30,000 troops, several thousand were pirates who had followed him to join Sun Ce.

"Youping, Youping!"

"I'm here!"

"I'm alive!"

"We have more than 30 people here!"

On a mound more than 200 meters downstream, Jiang Qin was shouting loudly at Zhou Tai.

"It's over. I am the sinner of Jiangdong."

Zhou Yu sat on the ground in a daze, his eyes seemed to have lost their spirit.

No one knew better than him the impact of this flood.

Whether it was a man-made or natural disaster, Fancheng was probably finished.

There were few horses in Jiangdong, so the scouts could only go on foot to investigate.

This greatly highlights the lag in news.

It is said that the scouts who went to scout the situation were washed away by the flood.

"Grand Admiral, cheer up, this is not your fault."

"We just arrived and we don't even know where the enemy is. Who can we blame?"

Zhou Tai spoke to comfort her with a bitter expression.

"Thirty thousand troops represent 70% of Jiangdong's elite troops."

"Now, only Zhongmou still has more than ten thousand troops."

"When the water recedes a bit, we'll immediately return to Jiangdong. Hopefully, we'll still be able to stop it."

Zhou Yu suddenly woke up and spoke.

Although Sun Quan's attack was a feint, casualties were inevitable.

Now whoever can survive is a survivor, and no one else can die. Otherwise, when the enemy attacks, they won’t even be able to defend themselves, and the natural barrier of the Yangtze River will become a joke.

"Grand Commander, there's no point in being anxious now."

"The river is too deep. We can't swim back, right?"

Zhou Tai looked at the rushing river and couldn't help but sigh.

"Swim back."

"Even if I have to swim, I have to swim back."

"I can't let down Bofu's spirit in heaven!"

As Zhou Yu spoke, he dived into the water.
