Looking at the eyes of the people around him, Linton was a little confused about what he had said. Even without these people opening their mouths, Linton seemed to have a strange voice in his heart. What about the prince-in-law's plan and his miraculous calculations?
Yes, Dong Ping and his gang praised him like this before, but now the gang next to him has exactly the same look in their eyes. They didn't shout now, mainly because it was still during the march, so they couldn't shout randomly.
Linton was really going to vomit. It felt like he was staring at the name of the God of War, and just doing a few random things was considered a perfect plan, right? He was really just lucky. Would anyone believe him if he said it?
"Yes, I have already expected this." As I said before, Linton had already messed up. As soon as he said this, both Li Ying and the newly appointed pioneer general Xu Jing looked shocked and admired.
Of course, there are some expressions that are so clear.
"A good son-in-law deserves to be called a military god." Li Yingzhen's eyes lit up next to him. He himself likes to deal with people in the army. When he meets a military god like Linton, his words will naturally come from the bottom of his heart.
admire.
"Everyone has heard it, but we can't waste the God-given opportunity that the general has won for everyone!" Xu Jing next to him continued to encourage the soldiers around him.
This was of course effective. Originally, these soldiers didn't know how to win, and they didn't know why Linton suddenly took them there. But now, everything has been answered, and of course they knew that this was a God-given opportunity.
This time, the low morale was suddenly brought back.
"Let's go! Repay the general with a great victory!" Xu Jing waved his sword and said as soon as he saw that the military morale was available.
On the other side, on the side of the imperial army, the general Wang Men has crossed the Wutao River.
At present, everything is going smoothly across the river. Many troops have crossed over safely. Everything is as he expected. But for some reason, he suddenly felt a little palpitated just now.
This feeling was really sudden. Wang Men didn't know why he suddenly felt like this, and his brows gradually wrinkled.
Wang Men is a soldier, and of course he also knows that crossing the river is very dangerous. But it is precisely because it is very dangerous that he chooses to do it at this time.
Think about it, just last night Li Ying's troops were attacked and bombed by him at night, and only a few troops escaped. At this time, Li Ying must be still gathering the defeated troops.
This Wutao River must be crossed, he was very sure about this.
The imperial court directly assembled hundreds of thousands of troops this time, and its purpose was naturally to annihilate the rebels in one fell swoop. It was impossible for these guys to be left to confront each other across the river.
Therefore, although it was Li Ying's side who took the initiative to advance at the beginning, the imperial court's side had hundreds of thousands of troops assembled. How could they only be on the defensive? This was too embarrassing.
What's more, the emperor also urged him privately and told him the reason for his anxiety, which was that he was worried about interference from Cang Qingshan.
Yes, this matter has something to do with Linton. Didn't the second prince Li Chengfeng go to Cangqing Mountain to negotiate? In the end, although Linton ignored him, he beheaded the Buddhist disciples of Rihua Temple in front of him.
.
The second prince was so frightened that he ran away on the spot. After the news was brought back, the emperor felt that Linton was warning and threatening him. After all, he even dared to chop down the Buddhist disciples of Rihua Temple on the spot. Who else would not dare to kill?
But Linton was not a direct warning after all. According to the emperor's understanding, Cang Qingshan probably still couldn't spare the effort to intervene in this matter. After all, Li Ying was a pure rebel. He was from a well-known and upright family in Cang Qingshan and did not care about matters outside the world of immortality.
, and helping a traitor, isn't it embarrassing?
Although he did not dare to interfere directly, it was certain that Cang Qingshan was connected with Li Ying. Of course the emperor was anxious, and he was certainly not afraid of Li Ying alone, but once Cang Qingshan got involved, he was afraid that something might happen.
So the best way he can think of is to kill Li Ying, the rebel, before Cang Qingshan officially intervenes. Once he is gone, Cang Qingshan can't find anyone suitable to intervene.
There's a reason.
Before the expedition, the emperor had made this secret with the Wang family, because the Wang family was his confidant and support after all. There was no way this matter could be made public, otherwise the soldiers would know that Cang Qingshan was involved in this matter, and their morale would definitely be shaken.
So the Wang Clan was somewhat anxious.
This time he made a series of eliminations and attacks, and then suddenly decided to build a bridge to cross the river overnight. This was also due to this consideration, because what he was most worried about at this time was the opponent's follow-up troops.
Naturally, the Wangmen knew that Li Ying had an army of tens of thousands of people coming here. So if he waited for this army to arrive, it would be even more difficult for him to cross the river.
By then, even if hundreds of thousands of follow-up troops behind him have arrived, it will be extremely difficult to cross here. There may even be a confrontation situation, and then it will be difficult for the court.
So he chose to cross the river at this time. The best situation is that he can cross the Wutao River without anyone noticing before the opponent reacts. If their 150,000-strong army can safely cross the river and set up camp, then the opponent will follow up.
When his troops arrive, he will be invincible.
To be honest, although it sounds a bit risky, Wang Men is very confident in his own plan. On the one hand, the enemy was successfully defeated, and it was a huge defeat. At this time, the opponent must not have recovered, of course.
It was impossible to stop them from crossing the river.
On the other hand, even if the troops on the opposite side really gather together, will they choose to take the initiative to attack? Of course he knows how many people are left on the opposite side, and the opposite side should also know how many people are on his side.
However, Wangmen just missed two points. One was Xu Jing's unusually rapid gathering of troops, and the second was Linton's completely random and blind command.
It is true that normal people would not just take 10,000 newly defeated troops and fight back. Linton didn't even know the issue of whether there was a river or not.
To say where Wang Men lost, the most critical factor may be that he thought he was playing against a normal person.
Therefore, when the Wangmen side heard the sudden shouts of killing from around him, he was completely confused. This is really nonsense. How could the troops from the opposite side appear here?
However, no matter how much you don't believe it, the facts are the facts. When they saw Li Ying's troops rushing down from the nearby hillside, Wang Men could only grit his teeth and accept the facts.
"I didn't expect that I actually underestimated you..." Wang Men felt that the person leading the army was still Li Ying. He defeated the opponent twice yesterday. He really underestimated this prince who was a military general. But now, he
All I could do was break my teeth and swallow it.
"Line up... get ready to face the enemy!" Wang Men shouted directly.
