There are North Han River and South Han River in Han River.

The Namhan River originates from the eastern mountainous area and flows northwest into the sea.

Li Jinzhu's power is located south of the Namhan River.

Seoul is located on the south bank of the Nanhan River. For Li Jinzhu's small court in exile, guarding the Han River means guarding half of the country. Otherwise, the country will be destroyed and the family will be destroyed.

There is no way to retreat.

Wu Nian's army marched steadily. They set out on the eighth day of the first lunar month and only arrived at the edge of the Han River on the eleventh day of the second lunar month.

Wu Nian, Wang Gui, and Zhang Sheng were the last to arrive, and a camp had been built for them at the front. After Wu Nian entered the camp, he immediately summoned the lieutenants in the Chinese army's tent.

There are two armies of water and land, 90,000 households, and more than 100,000 soldiers.

Before the captains arrived, Wu Nian prepared a topographic map. Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunchong deployed defenses along the river. The spies had already figured out where the key defenses were and where the secondary defenses were.

Wu Nian did not know the total number of their troops, but it would not be less than 100,000. Moreover, these hundreds of thousands of soldiers followed Li Jinzhu southward.

Putting aside his combat effectiveness, his loyalty is very high.

After everyone had arrived, Wu Nian looked up. His eyes fell on Li Tianbao and Songping Yishin, and he asked with a smile: "You two, you have changed from the navy to the river navy. You and your soldiers

, are you still used to it?”

Songping glanced at Li Tianbao without saying a word.

Li Tianbao smiled and replied: "The general underestimated us. Compared with the rough sea, the inland river is just a small quagmire. It is easy for us and our soldiers to control the inland river warships."

"But it's relative. The inland river is too windy and unsatisfactory. We still want to return to the sea and fight against the Fuso people."

"Hahahaha." Wu Nian laughed loudly when he heard this. Okay, that's good. Hearing these words made him feel more confident. When he was satisfied, he also said with a smile: "Don't worry. I'll let you go when Li Jinzhu is wiped out."

Go back to the sea and fight with the Fuso people together with my two newly established navy Wanhu."

Having said this, Wu Nianhu's eyes flashed and he said resolutely: "The Fusang people can no longer lock me down."

"Yes." Li Tianbao and Songping Yixin responded loudly.

Li Tianbao was very happy.

Isshin Matsudaira was excited and thought to himself: "When the general pacifies Goguryeo, he will send troops to Huanglong Prefecture. Our restoration of Ryukyu is not far away."

Wu Nian was talking about sex and couldn't stop the car for a while. He smiled and said: "Speaking of the blockade. The Goguryeo people and the Fusang people united to block my maritime trade. Now it's better. I annexed Goguryeo. The Goguryeo area

Doesn’t maritime trade with the Liaodong region become trade between our own countries?”

"If this continues, the officials of the Shipping Department may have to worry about their own jobs."

The captains were stunned when they heard this, and then they were very amused and burst out laughing.

If they don't do business with us, if they don't make things easier for us, they will all be wiped out.

After laughing, Wu Nian finally stopped the car. With a serious look on his face, he said, "Okay. Now let's talk about marching into the army."

"Where do we cross the river?"

Wu Nian's eyes fell on Li Tianbao, Songping Yixin, Liu Tianfang, Qian Botao and others.

There are not many places on the Han River where large-scale crossings can be made, but there are not many. These four people have been confronting Li Jinzhu on the Han River for several months, and they are all experts in water warfare.

Wu Nian does not feel that he is more professional than them.

The other three did not speak, but Li Tianbao still clasped his fists and saluted: "Return to the general. According to our research, Cangyuan, Lanxi, and Enting are very suitable for crossing the river. However, Li Yunchong and Zhao Mancheng have water garrison in these three places.

, Lu Chongbing.”

Immediately, Li Tianbao's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice: "We think we should attack in the east and attack in the west. Of the three ferries, Cangyuan has the gentlest water and is the most suitable for large-scale troops to cross the river. On the contrary, Lanxi has the worst conditions. We can pretend

Assemble a large number of troops to cross the river at Cangyuan, and then sneak across Lanxi River."

The Army Colonel knew almost nothing about water warfare, but the strategies and tactics were still the same.

Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng, and Tieniu followed Wu Nian and fought in guerrilla warfare.

When you are weak and have no troops, you can fight on the run and use your small strength to make a big difference.

Now that the two sides are seemingly evenly matched, they will of course use tactics to mobilize the enemy's forces and attack them separately.

Make noise in the east and attack in the west.

They are very good at it.

"General. I think Lieutenant Li's strategy is very good and we can act accordingly." After thinking for a while, Long Qie raised his fist and said to Wu Nian.

The other army captains did not speak, but they nodded slightly in unison.

Wu Nian stretched out his hand to pinch his chin and pondered.

When the captains saw this, they all lowered their heads slightly and did not dare to disturb Wu Nian.

It is their job to provide operational ideas, and it is the job of the king to adopt them or not.

Wu Nian thought for a long time, considered all aspects, and weighed the pros and cons. He raised his head and said to the captains: "In marching operations, we must not only consider the terrain, the opponent's strength, but also the enemy's general."

"Although the two sides are clearly evenly matched now, we all know that once I cross the river, Li Jinzhu will lose."

"As a weak party, surprise troops may appear."

"Especially Snow Qilin Zhao Mancheng, he is very brave."

"And he should know us very well. He knows that we are masters of attacking from the east and from the west. What if we pretend to attack Cangyuan and secretly cross Lanxi? Will he guess it?"

"He took a gamble. He gathered a large number of troops at Lanxi or Enting, and prepared to wait for us and give us a head-on attack?"

"It should be clear to Li Jinzhu from top to bottom. They can't defeat us if we use our national strength and military strength. The only way is to take the opposite direction and fight hard."

After listening to Wu Nian's analysis, the captains all fell into deep thought.

If you think about it carefully, this is really the case.

If they were put in Zhao Mancheng's position, wouldn't it be stupid to be led around despite knowing that Wu Nian was a master of making east and west attacks?

Just do the opposite and take a gamble.

"What do you mean, general?" Li Tianbao raised his head and asked, clasping his fists.

"We announced that we would cross the river in Cangyuan and assemble heavy troops. Then we also built large camps in Enting and Lanxi. The three camps maintained the same number of earthen stoves and raised the same amount of smoke every day."

"Let them not know where we are going to cross the river."

"As for how Zhao Mancheng deploys his defenses, that is his business. He may gather heavy troops in Cangyuan. He may also think that this is my plan to attack the east and attack the west. He will gather heavy troops in Lanxi or Enting."

"No matter what he does, we have to cross the river this time, captains."

Having said this, Wu Nian looked at the captains, took a deep breath, stood up, and said with fierce momentum: "I want to capture Li Jinzhu alive and kill the last breath of Goguryeo."

"Avenging an arrow."

"Prepare for battle."

"yes."
