Chen, Cai, and the guides from the Sixty-Three Kingdoms, who had followed the "rebels" throughout the entire journey, were already extremely shocked at this moment.
These guides could even imagine that if the flood receded, Li Jie's achievements in "Huaizhong" would definitely shock everyone again.
After Li Jie captured Liao City, he sent a signal to the other side across the Huai River. The troops staying in Huaibei immediately sent out cavalry without stopping and returned to Huai Zhong City to report their victory.
As long as the defenders in Huaizhong know that the front line has won a great victory, they will have the confidence to hold on no matter whether there is an enemy attack or not, and they may even seize the opportunity at the right time to achieve great success in one fell swoop!
"Gentleman, if my tribe comes to restore the state, won't it be for the Yunzhen family? What benefit will it have to my Dou family?"
The Chu army's naval force on the Huai River has now passed Yingshui Pass, and Huai Zhong City is in front of them.
However, some people in the boat had different judgments about this sneak attack.
"Now that the Dou clan is divided into four parts, Zhao Ji's son can be the great king, but it has not yet been decided which one can rule Chu. How can we, the Baiju Dou clan, win if we don't unite with the Yunzhen clan?"
The young officer took off his helmet, combed the tassels briefly, and put it back on his head. Looking at the rolling Huaihe River, the young Dou Shi officer said seriously, "Who is Ling Yin, and who is Dou Shi now?"
Lord!"
After hearing this, the attendants on the left and right immediately clasped their fists in salute, bowed and stepped back.
"The savages of the Wu Kingdom are barbaric and reckless. They think they are brave and powerful. How do they know that everyone has their own wisdom?"
With a sneer, he drew out his sword and pointed at Huaizhong City not far away, "Today the warriors of Bai Ju promise to all the gentlemen, whoever ascends the prefecture first to the city will be rewarded with ten thousand gold!"
As soon as he said this, the surrounding boats immediately erupted into amazing roars.
At the same time, Qi Chuan, who had crossed the Ying River, was heading towards Huai Zhong City at a fast pace. The Chu State's boat masters in the Huai River had already seen clearly, and even the flags on each boat were clearly visible.
They can all be identified.
The boats of the Chu State were different from the boats of the Wu State in terms of shape, as well as the differences in flags, clothing, and armor. The people on Huaizhong City had already started to be on guard.
The faces of the Crocodiles were all as usual. Compared with the Battle of Biyang, the scene of the Chu State Boat Master was nothing more than drizzle.
As the highest commander of the garrison, Shapi did not act arbitrarily. When Li Jie left Huaizhong City, he did not take the little green snake of Chen Guo with him.
After all, fighting at night would be quite troublesome if they got separated.
But "Xiaoqing" stayed in Huaizhong City, but she could still play her role.
As a "Little Peach Blossom Princess", unlike her sister, Guizhen has a fairly complete "gentleman education".
The three major events of riding, archery and imperialism are not bad. In addition, she has also observed the ministers acting in state affairs and the generals leading troops in battles. It can be said that apart from not being a man, the elite education she received is already the best that Chen Guo can get.
Configuration.
Therefore, before leaving Huaizhong City, Li Jie told Shapi that if he encountered an unclear situation, he could consult Guizhen.
After all, Shapi's knowledge was not enough. He didn't even know what the "zheng" used by the armies of various countries was for, nor why he had to beat it.
This lack of familiarity may lead to misjudgment of the enemy's behavior, whether it is attacking or retreating. Sometimes the sound of drums and bells is not accurate.
Just as Li Jie used a large number of trumpeters to convey messages in the army, in fact, the armies of other countries also used this method, but it was not as strict and "regular" as Li Jie's troops.
"Mr. Chen, the Chu army has not yet reached the shore, do you want to attack?"
"No need."
Guizhen was enjoying herself with a telescope. Standing at the top of the city, she could even see the faces of the people on the boat clearly.
"This thing is truly magical."
After weighing the telescope in her hand, Gui Zhen was still a little curious: "Is this thing really made of plums?"
"really."
Nodding, Shapi asked again, "Master Chen, do you really don't need to shoot the Chu army?"
"The ground outside the city is muddy, which is not conducive to marching. The Chu army is large and our army is small. We are going to fight at this moment and take turns to fire. If we fail to retreat in time and are taken advantage of by the Chu army, it will cause disaster."
After saying this, Guizhen pointed to the ditch and moat in front of the city, "Besides, the terrain outside the city is not conducive to the Chu army's attack. If the army comes to the city, Sha Jun will just make achievements."
Shapi was stunned for a moment. Thinking about it, it was right. It was not short of the lives of a few Chu soldiers.
Moreover, Shapi firmly believed that as long as he guarded Huaizhong City, Shou Li would definitely be able to fight back. By then, the people of Chu would be attacked from both sides, wouldn't they all be dead?
After thinking about it, Shapi grinned: "Thank you, Mr. Chen."
"It doesn't matter."
Waving her hand, Gui Zhen picked up the telescope again and watched from a distance as the Chu boatmen struggled to land. Just landing was a mess.
"The invading Chu army must be the elite of Ying."
After making such a judgment, Guizhen saw the flag again, and then said, "After the Chu clan, the Ruo Ao family branched into the Dou family, but... I don't know which Dou family it is."
"Doushi?"
Mentioning the Dou family, Shapi thought for a moment and said, "When I was in Yinxiang, there was a businessman from Chu who called himself Qu family and had a big feud with the Dou family."
"In the Kingdom of Chu, there are countless people who have enemies with the Dou family. Even the king of Chu also has enemies with the Dou family."
"Clam?"
Shapi, who looked confused, was completely confused about the situation, "This...this king has a grudge against his minister? This...how is this possible?"
In Shapi's view, the king is like the old monster of Gusu. He can kill whoever he wants and destroy whoever he wants. Even his own boss and son, if he wants, he can expel and kill them.
No one dared to grin.
What is a king?
This is!
"It's not my fault that Mr. Sha doesn't know the national conditions of Chu."
Guizhen said something very calmly that made Shapi feel very sad.
"The person who imprisoned the previous king of Chu until his death was Yin Doushi, the order of Chu."
After saying this, Guizhen said again, "I originally wanted to go to Xiguo, because Xiguo is protected by Dou Zun, the official of the city. As long as Douzun is alive, Xiguo cannot be destroyed by Chu."
"..."
Hearing Guizhen's words, Shapi was completely confused. He didn't even know what "Little Peach Blossom Girl" was talking about. They were both Dou Masters and Dou Zun. Aren't these two people from the same family?
And why, as a minister, Dou Shi can kill his own king?
I can't figure it out, I can't understand it, I can't understand it.
"Chu people's boat masters are far inferior to righteous soldiers and righteous followers."
Putting the telescope away, Gui Zhen was very confident about the safety of Huaizhong City at this moment. The quality displayed by the Chu State Boat Master was completely incomparable to that of the righteous soldiers and Yi Cong.
And a righteous man, a righteous man, is far inferior to a brave man.
A brave man is worse than a crocodile.
Thinking of the crocodile men and the brave men, Gui Zhen curiously looked at the few dozen crocodile men at the top of the city. These crocodile men, in the words of Shapi, the "garrison commander" of Huaizhong City, were all elites.
, is the strongest soldier who can follow Shou Li into battle.
To be honest, Gui Zhen felt a little unconvinced, because most of these crocodile men were not as tall as she was, and they did not look particularly strong, especially compared to their boss Li Jie, the gap was astonishingly huge.
Isn’t it that Li Jie is too strong?
This is what Guizhen thought.
The incompetence of one general affects all three armies.
The opposite is also true, there are no weak soldiers under a strong general.
However, Gui Zhen also knew that Li Jie was able to transform from a barbarian to a Jiang Yinzi who dominated the Wu Kingdom in two years, all because of himself... of course.
No matter how you look at it, these crocodiles are all hugging each other on their laps.
So Guizhen made up her mind that as long as Shapi wanted to go out of the city to fight in the field, she would persuade him. For things like field fighting, she only believed in Li Jie's ability, which was definitely strong enough.
