However, Li Xingchen was still a little helpless and strange.
What is this, the side wife is persuading her husband to have a child?
Why does it feel like everyone is tying me to get married to Cai Rong?
What is this?
Of course, he also knew that as the war lasted for a long time, the army was already boring. Of course, the soldiers also hoped for a change. Of course, nothing could make people feel more comfortable than the combination of the gods and the real dragon emperor in their hearts.
.
Li Xingchen patted Yuan Lexhang's hand: "Okay, let's discuss this matter after we take Luoyang. I'm not in the mood now."
Yuan Lexhang said with a smile: "Your Majesty, please don't let down the Cai family sister. As long as your Majesty is here, no one will dare to marry her again, so if your Majesty forgets about this matter, it will be a harm to others.
"
"Why didn't I?" Li Xingchen suddenly felt dizzy and waved his hand helplessly, "Okay, okay, don't worry, I will be responsible."
When Li Xingchen said this, he even smiled to himself.
I always feel like I've fallen into Yuan Lexhang's trap.
"Your Majesty, the former army has arrived in Yishui!" Li Ping's voice sounded outside the camp.
Yuan Lexhang left in a hurry.
"Come in," Li Xinchen said directly, "call Yang Su and meet Li Jing!"
With the sound of drums, the Han army formed huge square formations one after another in the fields on the south bank of Yishui River. There were cavalry shuttles between each square formation. No matter which direction the enemy attacked from, the cavalry could assemble in time to attack.
The enemy's flanks can launch a counterattack, or they can block the enemy's advance as much as possible.
Of course, given the current formation of the Han army, Wang Qian may not have the guts to launch an attack on the Han army. Chen Zhishen knew very well that Li Xingchen was leading the Imperial Guards behind him, and even the Yulin Cavalry had arrived in advance to await Chen Zhishen's orders.
His Majesty brought the Imperial Guard as the rearguard, and also handed over the Yulin Cavalry to Chen Zhishen. This was a great trust in Chen Zhishen. In any previous battle, except for the generals of the Imperial Guard, it happened that he would be able to
Apart from commanding the Yulin Cavalry, there is no other general in the army who is qualified to command the Yulin Cavalry.
Of course, this is not only Li Xinchen's trust in Chen Zhishen, but also the pressure on Chen Zhishen. For a river that can be directly crossed without even using a sampan, you don't want to be trapped on the south bank like Xuanyuan Pass, unable to move.
The Yishui River is not very deep. After all, the Luoshui River it merges into cannot be considered a big river. However, Chen Zhishen was not arrogant enough to think that the soldiers of the Han army could really walk on the water. In any case, the Han army was
Those who need to cross this river, since they have to cross the river, no matter how mighty and mighty the formation is, they will still have to use boats to transport people to the north bank bit by bit.
This is what gave Wang Qian the greatest courage to stand on the north bank of Yishui River.
But after all, he still underestimated Chen Zhishen.
From Shui to Ru River to Ying River, Chen Zhishen can be said to be the general who crossed the most rivers during the Northern Expedition of the Han Army. A Yishui River was not insurmountable in front of him.
While arraying himself in formation to show off the strength of the Han army to Wang Qian on the opposite side, Chen Zhishen also began to direct the trebuchets and artillery to move forward. Drawing on his previous experience of forcibly crossing water, etc., as long as he could use powerful firepower to suppress the enemy's beachhead, then the remaining
Everything was dominated by the Han army. The former Xuchang Northern Zhou army was beaten by the Han army and was unable to fight back. Chen Zhishen didn't think Wang Qian could do any better.
"boom!"
The artillery began to roar, and at the same time, the trebuchets also tried their best to throw the stone bombs as far away as possible. The dark sky was suddenly shrouded in criss-crossing black afterimages, and sometimes there was the sound of piercing the sky, while the other side in the distance was already engulfed in rolling waves.
In the smoke and dust, one could vaguely see the Northern Zhou army beginning to retreat step by step.
Chen Zhishen raised his eyebrows. Wang Qian obviously did not intend to fight head-on. During the Battle of Ru River, Cui Jingsong adopted the cruelest method in order to stop the Han army from rushing to the beach. He used the supervising team to force the soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty to accept the artillery and fire attacks of the Han army.
The baptism of stone bullets, but Cui Jingsong still overestimated the morale of his soldiers.
When the Han army rushed ashore and the devastated Northern Zhou army was finally able to launch a counterattack, facing the fierce offensive of the Han army, the last bit of persistence in the hearts of the Northern Zhou soldiers was wiped out, and even the supervising team began to
Taking the lead in fleeing backwards, there were even cases where soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty captured their own generals in order to use them as certificates of surrender.
Wang Qian naturally knew how miserably Cui Jingsong had been defeated at that time, and of course he had no intention of letting the scene happen again at this time.
So he chose to retreat actively to avoid the cover of Han army artillery.
No matter how powerful your firearms are, you can't just set them up on the river and shoot at me, right? As long as I can retreat out of your range, naturally you can't hurt me at all, and the shells fired will only be in the area.
Just plowing the ground.
Chen Zhishen decisively issued the order to cross the river.
Does this guy think that the big Han really only has artillery? If you take the initiative to give up the beach, once the Han army comes ashore, the outcome of this battle will be decided.
Has Wang Qian given up the struggle? Or does he think that the Han army is addicted to the power of artillery and does not know how to fight without the cover of artillery and trebuchets?
If Wang Qian had such an idea, Chen Zhishen could only say that he was too naive.
None of the Han soldiers were afraid of fighting hand-to-hand with the enemy, and even the soldiers were eager to do so. Otherwise, if everyone rushed over and saw corpses on the ground and surrendered enemy troops, when would they be able to take credit? All the credit should go to the artillery.
Aren't the brothers now running errands for the artillery?
However, regardless of whether Wang Qian had given up treatment or not, Chen Zhishen did not intend to make any dangerous moves, but launched an attack step by step.
In the battle of Yishui, what Chen Zhishen needs is a sure victory!
The Han army advanced rapidly. This attack was no better than the previous battles at Ru River and Ying River. The Han navy had not yet reached the river. Naturally, there was no way to enter Luoshui through the river and then transfer to Yishui to support the Yishui war. In the original
During the battle, when the powerful five-toothed ship of the Han Navy appeared on the water, the outcome of the battle was often determined by half, but now we mainly had to rely on the infantry themselves.
Chen Zhishen had already prepared a large number of ships. Even the Northern Zhou army had already hunted down almost all the ships before Xuanyuan Pass was breached. After his own army retreated across Yishui, they burned the ships cleanly. In Chen Zhishen's view, Wang
Qian is not very good at fighting, but he is still very good at disgusting people.
However, ships were not difficult for the Han Dynasty, whose shipbuilding industry was one of the pillar industries of the economy. As long as the craftsmen accompanying the army could find a mountain, they could turn all the trees on the mountain into ships in just a few days.
