Mingyue's face was full of reverence: "Senior brother has a long way to go and is a true god. My little sister is convinced. However, is it really necessary for Princess Langya to stay in Xunyang? What if..."
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "This is a backup plan. The battle is fierce and dangerous. No amount of planning is enough to determine the outcome. If Liu Yi wins tomorrow and the Chu army is defeated again, the next thing to do is to let Liu Yi take advantage of it."
Winning and arrogant, he has the ambition and ability to fight Liu Yu. This requires him to capture Princess Langya. Sima Dewen openly turned against Liu Yu and Wang Shen'ai last time, but this time Liu Yi saved him again
His wife and daughter, then he will definitely collude with Liu Yi. Liu Yu has the ability to support Sima Dezong, so I will let Liu Yi rely on his boss Ma Dewen, huh, let the civil war in Changdao happen again."
Having said this, even Tao Yuanming himself smiled proudly. It seemed that he was very satisfied with this plan.
An imperceptible look flashed across Mingyue's face, and she smiled slightly: "Then I wish you all the best, senior brother. If there is nothing I have to do here, then I will secretly protect Princess Chu Lingyuan of Langya and her daughter, and they will not let her go.
They were harmed by the possible chaos of war."
Tao Yuanming nodded: "You go ahead. I'll leave the matter there to you."
Mingyue turned around and took two steps, then suddenly turned around, looked at Tao Yuanming who was stroking his beard contentedly, and said, "Brother, where are you in tomorrow's battle?"
Tao Yuanming was a little surprised: "Of course it's on He Danzhi's main ship. I'm talking about his real flagship. What's wrong?"
Mingyue gritted her teeth: "The war is fierce and dangerous. No matter what, He Danzhi is the flagship and is in danger. You'd better not get on the ship. Just watch the battle on land."
Tao Yuanming's expression changed slightly: "Junior sister, what's wrong with you? As the mastermind, how can I not be with the coach during the war? In case of an emergency, I will...
"
Mingyue sighed: "Everyone has only one life. If you lose it, you lose it. Brother, your plan is unparalleled. Few people in this world can match it. But adapting to the battlefield and breaking through with force are not what you are good at. What's more, now the Lord wants us
Hide in the dark as much as possible, hide your whereabouts, and don't show your face. This time you and I are assigned by the black robe, and the lord may not be satisfied if we turn back. I think it is better for you to hide in the dark at this time."
Tao Yuanming nodded: "Thank you, junior sister, for reminding me. I have my own concerns as a brother. You will do the same tomorrow. Protect yourself and don't put yourself in a dangerous situation."
Mingyue smiled sweetly, turned around and left, waving her hand gently. Tao Yuanming stood silently for a long time, then suddenly turned to the back of the tent and said, "Here you come."
A man dressed as a military academy ran over, and Tao Yuanming said in a deep voice: "Go and tell Marshal He that I am not suitable for the wind and waves. I got on the boat and vomited. I can only watch the battle on the water fortress tomorrow. Everything has been arranged for He."
The commander-in-chief can just act according to the original plan, and victory will definitely belong to Chu."
The military academy bowed and left. Tao Yuanming closed his eyes and murmured to himself: "Junior sister, are you going to hide something from me now?"
The next day, in the morning, I went to Huankou and the river.
On the Yangtze River, which is four to five miles wide, there are dense warships. The fleets sailing out from the water villages in the northeast and southwest have gathered into formations. The west wind is strong, blowing the robes of every sergeant on the battlefield.
You can clearly see the current wind direction from the direction of the flag flying. He Danzhi was very proud. He stood on the deck of the Water Dragon and looked at the densely packed battleships in front of him, as well as the countless people on the battleships.
The archers, as well as the naval warriors holding swords and shields, stroked their beards and smiled: "As for Liu Yi's warships opposite, the largest is not as good as our smallest. If it weren't for Mr. Tao's plan, in my opinion, only
If you just need to hit it directly, it will be over, why bother?"
The deputy general on one side, Feng Gai, was a lanky, red-faced veteran in his sixties and a veteran of the Huan family for many years. He said in a deep voice: "Commander He, don't underestimate the enemy. The storm today is not small. Even Tao
My husband is also unwell and cannot get on the boat. He is currently watching the battle in the water village. I just came from him. He is now so weak that it is difficult to stand."
He Danzhi said dissatisfiedly: "These literati are really useless. They can't withstand the slightest storm. No wonder they are just embroidered pillows. Without a good body, what's the use of having a good brain? That's all. There's no need for fighting anyway.
He, but his strategy is pretty good, how is General Hu doing?"
Feng Gai smiled slightly: "Right at the front, on the newly repainted and dazzling Fire Dragon, on top of the warship, there are also his two hundred guardsmen, including his three sons."
He Danzhi sighed softly: "Old Hu, Old Hu, fortunately you still have more than thirty sons at home. If you are unlucky, I will take care of your wife!"
Feng Gai opened his eyes wide in surprise and opened his mouth, but could not speak.
The front of the Chu army, the Fire Dragon.
Hu Fan was holding a moon-chasing bow and was sitting alone on the bow of the Fire Dragon's front deck. In front of him, on the front panel of the warship, there was a picture of an evil dragon with a huge mouth, teeth and claws, and a long
A punch rod of about ten meters was pushed out from the bow of the ship, which was enough to withstand the head-on impact of a large warship. More than three hundred fully armed warriors, holding bows and arrows or wielding swords and axes, stood all over the deck, while on both sides of the ship's sides,
There were shields covered with rawhide and soaked in water, covering all the warriors, protecting them very well.
A strong boy of sixteen or seventeen years old, holding a bow and arrow worth more than three stones, stood next to Hu Fan. He was Hu Fan's eldest son Hu Zhen, named Bo Shi. Hu Fan had many wives and concubines, but the main wife
After Mrs. Han became a scholar, Hu Fan always showed great respect to her. Her three sons, Hu Zhen, Hu Pai and Hu Zhong, were all brought to participate in the war this time. These three sons had gold medals next to their names.
, also shows that after General Hu became a general, he was very aggressive and aggressive. Even after Hu Fan returned home, every morning at Mao hour, he would beat drums to gather people just like in the army, and give them camp numbers, starting from Jia Yi.
At Dingba, digital management was implemented, and only the son who was called in at the right time could receive breakfast, and those who snoozed before the time came would be punished by pressing several military sticks on them.
Hu Zhen curled his lips, looked at the Beifu Army warship ten miles away, and said disapprovingly: "Dad, we can just hit it directly this time. Is there any need to lure the enemy like this? Besides, our lone ship is rushing forward.
, as a general, personally luring the enemy, this is also inconsistent with the art of war."
Hu Fan frowned deeply: "We must pay attention to the Beifu Army and never underestimate the enemy. The ship is flying the flag of Marshal He now, which is to attract thieves to attack. Only the most brave general in the army can
Only by personally taking charge can the troops' morale be reassured. By the way, how is the inspection of the ship? Are there any dangers, especially any fire hazards? Have the inspections been completed?"
