Anxiety is like a lost dog, panic is like a fish caught in a net.
Li Xingzai's three armies gathered in one place and fled in embarrassment across the land south of the Yangtze River. Hong Luo mobilized his troops and generals to block and encircle the enemy.
The Jiangnan Army, which fled all the way and was quite capable of blocking along the way, fought several times, but they were always divided at the first touch. Li Xingzai was never willing to fight.
When a hundred thousand troops crossed the border, naturally the wind swept away the clouds, leaving no chickens or dogs behind, and a whirlwind blew across the land south of the Yangtze River.
Hong Liao personally led the army to attack. Now he has realized how difficult Li Xingzai is. Although he escaped without losing his armor, he still maintained a very high marching speed. In the process, he also played a few tricks, using small stocks
The troops lured Hong into misjudgment, but the army fled in another direction.
By the time Hong Liao came to his senses, Li Xingzai had already fled with the main force and distanced himself from him.
Hiding from east to west, coaxing from south to north, Li Xingzai and Hong Liao played hide and seek on this land.
Fortunately, your surname is Li, you are the sixth prince of the empire, and you are now the emperor. Why can't some emperors be dignified and vigorous, and they are just some chicken thieves tricks when they are played here and there?
After three days of flooding, they broke through three cities and became famous all over the world in one battle. However, the pursuit battle with Li Xingzai lasted for more than ten days.
However, everyone understands that Li Xingzai has reached a desperate situation and his demise is not far away.
In such a state, everyone wanted to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds, and Jiangnan soldiers showed unprecedented bravery.
He pressed forward step by step and beat the drowned dog until he forced Li Xingzai to the end of his rope.
After struggling for more than ten days, Li Xingzai indeed walked towards a stranger step by step.
In such an urgent state of the war, He was not on the front line. He was originally only responsible for the issue of food and fodder, so he was left in the rear because of the excuse that food and fodder for the three armies were the most important.
Dan He understood that Hong Liao was afraid that he would share the blame and slowly separated him from the matter.
He Ye did not compete for credit. In order to repay Li Xing's kindness, he was willing to do something. But fighting with Hong Liao for fame and fortune was not something he was not good at, but rather disdainful of.
He stayed at the food station with peace of mind, kept everything in order, and managed the place like an iron barrel. He would never make the same mistakes that Li Xing had made again.
However, He did not just sit behind closed doors and ignore world affairs. In addition to handling his own work, he still kept his ears open and collected intelligence from all directions.
Intelligence comes first, and everyone who came out of Toad Village maintains this habit.
The current situation is not a secret. As long as you are willing and willing to inquire, you will always know something. A steady stream of information is sent to He, and He peels off the cocoons and analyzes the secrets.
Unlike Hong Liao, who was complacent, He had always lived cautiously. He knew Li Xingzai well and knew that he was a person who would not give up easily. From Chang'an to Youzhou, then to wandering around the world, and finally out of Liangzhou, if he
He is a person who gives up easily. He will never reach this stage.
But in this war, everything went too smoothly. Luofeng City was easily conquered, and then the three cities of Longxi and Zhongli were occupied. It only took three days to attack them all.
However, in this defeat, Li Xingzai did not lose too many troops and still maintained complete combat effectiveness.
Drawing a line along the direction of Li Xingzai's escape, He always felt that there was something hidden behind it.
Now, he no longer doubts that Li Xingzai has other plans. But what is he planning? Manpower is sometimes insufficient, and he can't figure out Li Xingzai's intention now.
Luofeng, Longxi, and Zhongli have all given up. Why should Li Xingzai gamble with Jiangnan on this big deal?
"gentlemen……"
He was enjoying the cool air in the pavilion, frowning, thinking about the matter in front of him. At this time, Zhu Qi came over and handed over the intelligence that had just been sent.
Taking it apart, judging from the intelligence content, Hong Liao has forced Li Xingzai into despair, and the demand for food and grass has been particularly high recently.
Hong Liao is already preparing for the final decisive battle, but now Li Xingzai can no longer organize the corresponding forces. Hong Liao only needs to defeat the main force of the enemy army, and the remaining defeated soldiers will not be able to cause any trouble. In any case, this matter is over.
Already.
Could it be that he was really overthinking, and Li Xingzai was really in a desperate situation, with only one last blow to completely defeat him?
Even though he thought so, he still couldn't let go. Otherwise, he knew that Li Xingzai was not an easy person to deal with.
And this victory came too easily.
"Where is the Eastern Navy now?"
"It should be near Linchuan City."
"Linchuan City?" He frowned. He had just arrived and knew nothing about the geography and hydrology of the south of the Yangtze River. Although he had spent time studying it recently, he was busy with everything and still didn't know much about it.
He ordered Zhu Qi to get the map of Linchuan City, which took a lot of effort. He, a grain officer, wanted to find a battle map. Finally, he found a copy, but the drawing was extremely rough. He had no choice but to find a map of Linchuan City.
I interviewed several soldiers near Linchuan and made some additions to the map based on their oral descriptions.
Slowly, a topographic map near Linchuan was sketched, and the sight fell on the same position as Wangchuankou.
According to the description of his soldiers, Wangchuankou is where the river passes. Later, the river changed its course and the place became dry land.
There is a road between two mountains, and after crossing the mouth of the river, there is an open slope.
He raised his hands and slowly pondered this place. Suddenly he was startled and his eyelids twitched.
Still not sure what he was thinking, he thought about it carefully in his mind, and finally let out a long sigh.
"Li Xingzai, Li Xingzai, do you need to play so big?"
Zhu Qihou stood aside and said, "Sir, what did you say?"
He suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared at Zhu Qi, which made Zhu Qi jump.
"You ride a fast horse and rush to the flood point quickly. Tell him that Li Xingzai's troops must be intercepted and killed in front of Wangchuan Pass. Once Li Xingzai's army enters Wangchuan Pass, they must not act rashly."
"Sir, is there something weird here?"
"I don't understand even if I tell you. Just go and do it quickly. I hope it's not too late."
Zhu Qi took the order and left, picked up a fast horse, and chased the flood without stopping.
After Zhu Qi left, He paced back and forth in the room. If Zhu Qi arrived, would Hong listen to him? He was afraid that he would laugh it off and make it a joke.
Finally, He Chang sighed, with only a wry smile on his face.
It's nothing more than doing your best to obey fate. If the Jiangnan soldiers fight to the death, they may not be unable to win this battle.
Not necessarily... The use of this word shows that Jiangnan soldiers are not far away from defeat.
I can’t blame others, I just blame everyone for misunderstanding the Li family.
Every one of the Li family is brave enough to risk their lives.
