A look of panic flashed in Liu Yi's eyes. He suddenly took a deep breath, looked at Liu Tingyun, and said in a deep voice: "I don't even have this news in my military report. Why did you just come to my army today?
Can you know the battle situation in Jiangling, thousands of miles away?"
Liu Tingyun smiled slightly: "Because in order to conceal your movements, you have been marching in secret for the past ten days and proactively cut off contact with Liu Daogui. He doesn't know your movements, and you don't know his results, but I am different.
, No matter where I am, I will pay attention to the war on the front line. This front line is not just you, but also includes Jingzhou, and even includes the situation in Wuling County where Tan Zhi is located and Baidi City where the Qiao Shu Army is entrenched.
"
Liu Yi gritted his teeth: "Is your news confirmed? Do you have any details to tell me? I really can't imagine how the eight-stern giant ship could be sunk by Liu Daogui!"
Liu Tingyun said calmly: "The main reason is naturally Zhu Chaoshi's movements. He has always been interested in the Jin Dynasty. In the demon thief camp, he was just waiting for an opportunity. I am afraid that killing He Wuji was just a
It was just a scene played by He Wuji to protect him, and the death of Lu Lanxiang was probably done by him himself. In order to hide his identity and one day take revenge on the demon thief."
Liu Yi nodded: "I have never believed that Zhu Chaoshi would actually surrender to the enemy. Although he had rebelled from the Chu Army and surrendered to our Beifu Army before, he joined the monster thieves just to save his life. I have always been skeptical, and probably Liu Yu didn't believe it either.
For this reason, Zhu Lingshi was never dealt with, and he even let Zhu Lingshi lead the troops. I don't know if I would have dealt with it the same way in Liu Yu's position, but it seems that Liu Yu won the bet this time.
But how could Zhu Chaoshi wipe out the entire fleet by himself? Even if he wanted to issue that kind of suicidal order, the demon thief might not be able to carry it out."
Liu Tingyun sighed: "Zhu Chaoshi's command seems to be fine, but he has hidden murderous intentions. The most important thing is to do two things. One is to let the giant ships be connected with iron locks, and the other is to let the Qianlong warships lurk at the bottom of the river.
, when the giant ships were advancing in a chain, a signal was suddenly sent out, allowing the Qianlong warship to surface. Although it did not hit the giant ship, it almost wiped out all the escort fleet in front of the giant ship, and the resulting river current also caused the giant ships behind it to float.
The ship formation was in chaos, giving the Jin warships an opportunity to make a surprise attack!"
Liu Yi took a breath of air: "Let the demon thief's Qianlong warship collide with the giant ship? Grandma, this little stone is such a fucking genius, I couldn't even think of this trick. However, since it didn't hit the giant ship,
After all, it’s just a missed move, and with those six giant ships, we won’t be destroyed by the Daogui Navy.”
Liu Tingyun smiled slightly: "There are not six ships, only four. Before the war, Zhu Chaoshi used the division of troops and asked Yingjiu and others to divide two giant ships and some warships to fight Ma Tou and Wulindu. At that time, the decisive battle
There were only four giant ships present. Liu Daogui didn't know if he had been in contact with Zhu Chaoshi. In short, he took advantage of the chaos in the Tianshidao fleet and used dozens of Huanglong warships and small boats to raid the enemy ships, and then threw them at the sides of the giant ships.
He made many iron cones, filled them with fire oil, sulfur and other substances, and finally used fire attack tactics to reduce the four giant ships to ashes. In this battle, tens of thousands of Tianshi Dao's navy soldiers were killed, along with the four giant ships.
More than 200 warships were destroyed. Liu Daogui can be said to have gained control of the river in Jiangling in one battle."
Liu Yi sighed and murmured: "God's will, everything is God's will. Without Liu Daogui's fire attack tactics, even Zhu Chaoshi would not be able to sink the giant ship. Without Zhu Chaoshi's arrangement, Liu Daogui would not have a chance with fire attacks.
, the combination of the two allowed them to accomplish this great feat. It’s no wonder that the demon thieves ran away overnight. I was always worried that they were trying to trick me into chasing me, and then set up an ambush to destroy them. I didn’t expect that they really escaped.”
Liu Tingyun nodded: "Yes, Liu Daogui now has the initiative. He can join forces with you to the east to attack the demon thief, or he can go south to land in Changsha County and cut off the demon thief's way back to Lingnan. Therefore, after the demon thief got the news, he ran away overnight.
, there was no time to arrange a breakup and cover. Those bandits and bandits who were left in the camp, when they saw that the main force of the demon thieves had escaped, they naturally collapsed without a fight. If you don’t believe it, you can let Liu Fan capture them again.
Please inquire in detail about these prisoners!"
Liu Yi waved his hand: "I think there is no need for this. Let me ask you one last time, where is the source of your information? Is it absolutely reliable?"
Liu Tingyun curled her lips and said: "I have informants in Liu Daogui and the demon thief army. Both sides reported the same thing, but the battle report from the Jin army was more detailed, including the details of Zhu Chaoshi's return and the demon thief's escape.
Shengtian's disciples only reported the defeat and losses, and were not very clear about the details. However, comparing the two, this matter is absolutely true. If you take the initiative to contact Liu Daogui now, you will get the news within half a day."
Liu Yi gritted his teeth and said: "Before I took the initiative to cut off contact with him, the last suggestion I gave him was to send troops to Changsha, Yueyang and Baling to cut off the enemy's food routes. At that time, I just thought about letting him harass me. I didn't really think so.
He can do it. But after this battle, it is our first great victory in the Jin Dynasty since the demon thief raised his troops this time. It can even be said to have reversed the entire battle situation. If I don't take action, then he will be the one to defeat the demon thief.
Damn it, Liu Daogui, everything we just said will come to nothing."
Liu Tingyun nodded: "Yes, that's why I came here urgently this time. I originally wanted to bring you food, grass and supplies to help you fight steadily, but now the battle situation has changed, and you need to make your own decision."
Liu Yi said in a deep voice: "Supplies of grain, grass and weapons? When did I ask you to bring these?"
Liu Tingyun smiled slightly: "Have you forgotten? Before you set out this time, didn't you ask me to prepare 500,000 stones of food and grass and 30,000 people of equipment for your subsequent attack? If you don't do these things well, I will
Why are you on the front line?"
Liu Yi frowned: "You are moving very quickly, but it shouldn't be needed now. I have to grab time, and I can't even wait for the follow-up troops. With these 30,000 troops, I have to chase the demon thief urgently.
We must not allow them time to evacuate Jiangzhou!"
Speaking of this, Liu Yi looked at Liu Tingyun and said in a deep voice: "Do me a favor. You will guard the camp here. All the army's food, grass and baggage are placed here. I will send a message to Meng Huaiyu to dispatch urgently. You
Just wait for him here. Remember, this is my main camp and base. The supply of the 30,000 soldiers in the front army depends entirely on this. You help me hold this place. You will definitely make great contributions in this battle, and you have to
Whatever I do, I will definitely do it!”
Liu Tingyun smiled slightly: "I will obey my husband's orders!"
