Chapter 445 Too late to regret
This was an asymmetrical battle. On one side were tens of thousands of sailors full of resentment, and on the other side were three thousand guards who were frightened. In less than half a moment, the battle was over. Immediately afterwards, everyone was distraught.
If they dared to delay, they all untied the boats and pushed them into the river.
When dense black spots appeared on the river heading upstream, dust began to rise in the direction of Jiangcheng County. It was obvious that the cavalry was dispatched to pursue, but it was already a step too late.
Huan Wen also went to Jiankang again according to his original plan. Although there was smoke billowing along the river bank for more than 100 miles from Gushu to Jiankang, no swarms of fireships came out to intercept, and Liu Kun and Liu Kun got the news of the lost water village.
At almost the same time, the news came that the first batch of 50,000 troops of the Qin Army had entered Stone City and reoccupied the Stone City Water Wall that Liu Kun took advantage of when Huan Wen led his troops.
By the next day, April 16, a total of 120,000 Qin troops, including 20,000 refugee troops, had all crossed the river. At this point, Liu Kun's wishful thinking of defeating the Qin army on the river was completely bankrupt, and
This day was only one day earlier than his plan to attack Liyang!
Now that all the tricks were useless, Liu Kun had only one way to go: a decisive battle. He simply concentrated his troops at the Shogunate Mountain camp, and except for a small garrison in the palace, he abandoned all other places. He even withdrew the siege of Xun Mansion.
He was going to fight the Qin army in a desperate duel. Accordingly, Xun Song, Huan Yi and Bian Yi took the whole family, old and young, and retreated back to Stone City under the protection of Zeng Daniu's troops.
According to Yunfeng's plan, he is not in a hurry to fight Liu Kun. He has not yet figured out how to expose Murong Xin's true identity. Moreover, Stone City cannot accommodate more than 100,000 troops, so some of them must be set up camp outside the city.
Liu Kun also moved to the Shogunate Mountain camp. The two terrible news of Wujin's fall and the robbery of the water village made his face full of gloom. His eyes flashed with cold light. It was obvious that he was extremely angry!
Murong Xuan felt that Liu Kun had lost his position at this moment. How could he be angry and do nothing when he was facing life and death? So he gritted his teeth and raised his hands: "Your Majesty, the Qin army is busy setting up a camp now. We should take advantage of him.
He has not yet established a firm foothold. Quickly mobilize his troops to attack, otherwise, if it is delayed and given him a chance to gain a firm foothold, the situation will be worrying!"
The Qin army supported the river and camped three miles northwest of Shitou City. It and Shitou City were at the horns of each other.
After being reminded like this, Liu Kun came back to his senses and shouted out: "Summon Gacheng Yangtze River Attack Jinyan to come and see you!"
"Yes!" A sound of footsteps faded away outside the tent.
Not long after, Katsuragi Changjiang Xijinyan and Muchu Su'er both came. In fact, as soon as Katsuragi Changjiang Xijinyan came to Jiankang, he regretted that his intestines were green. He did not expect that Liu Kun's situation was actually different from that of Mu Tusu.
Completely different from what you described!
After the Qin army successfully crossed the river, he could clearly judge that Liu Kun was in a desperate situation with no way to save himself. However, what's the use of regrets? Those 30,000 tribesmen are always under strict surveillance. If they want to escape,
If you run away, you won't have any chance.
Facing Liu Kun's gloomy and frightening face, Katsuragi Yangtze River Raid Tsuhiko gritted his teeth, led Mu Tusu'er to salute and said: "The foreign minister has seen your majesty. I wonder why your majesty summoned the foreign minister?"
Liu Kun was not in the mood to talk to him anymore. He stretched out his hand and said, "I want to take advantage of the Qin army's encampment to launch an attack with the whole army. You can make preparations quickly. In half an hour, we will attack."
I attack!"
Katsuragi Yangtze River Attack Jin Yan felt a pain in his heart, thinking that what was supposed to come had come, but he could only grit his teeth and said: "The foreign minister obeys the order, let's go and make arrangements now!"
After saying that, Katsuragi Yangtze River Attack Jin Yan was about to leave, Liu Kun waved his hand again and called out: "After all, you are also the master of a country, how can you enter the battle formation lightly? You stay with me to watch the battle, and General Mu Tusu is in front of me.
Just go and summon them.”
'This... I'm going to take myself hostage!' Katsuragi Yangtze River Raid Tsuhiko wanted to slap himself twice. Isn't it good to just stay on the Japanese island? Even if the Qin army lands on the island again in the future, the Japanese
The terrain of the island is complicated, so why can’t he run away? Where can he find it? At worst, he can cross the sea to the large island thousands of miles away in the south. The world is so big that there is nowhere to go?
But for a moment, he was obsessed with it and came to participate in the civil war in Middle-earth. This was good, as he had no chance to escape.
Unable to help myself, the countless allusions about unloading mills and killing donkeys, crossing rivers and breaking bridges in the ancient Chinese classics came to my mind. Katsuragi Yangtze River attacked Jinyan and his head was covered with sweat. He couldn't help but think...
He looked at Liu Kun with pleading eyes.
"Huh?" Liu Kunrui stared, with a murderous aura emanating from his body, as if if he dared to say even half a word, he would immediately be killed on the spot!
Katsuragi Yangtze River hit Jin Yan, who suddenly shivered all over, stopped all thoughts, and thanked with a sad face: "Your Majesty is still thoughtful, foreign minister... Thank you very much, foreign minister!"
"Hmm~~" Liu Kun's face softened a little, and he waved his hand to Mu Tusu'er: "This battle is about the life and death of our two countries. I hope that General Mu Tusu'er will go all out. After the Qin army retreats, I will be with you.
As brothers, we will never break our promises, so go quickly."
Muchu Su'er could no longer believe Liu Kun's lies. In addition to deep regret, he also felt boundless guilt. If it hadn't been for himself, how could the king have put himself in danger?
Mu Tusu'er didn't even dare to look at Katsuragi Yangtze River Raid Tsuhiko, and hurriedly raised his hand: "Please rest assured, your majesty, the foreign minister knows the priorities, so go ahead, the foreign minister retires!" After saying that, he walked away quickly as if he was running away.
go.
The Shogunate Mountain camp was busy mobilizing troops and horses, and the Qin Army's Stone City camp was also in a lively atmosphere. Everyone took the time to set up the camp, and thousands of crossbows were pushed to the front of the position one after another, to the periphery.
There are also soldiers digging trenches nervously.
Yunfeng stood in the formation, staring ahead. Surrounded by Murong Huang and others, they all had expressions of deep contemplation. Everyone was thinking about how to reveal Murong Xuan's identity, especially Murong Huang.
, his expression changed from gloomy to sunny, as anxious as an ant on a hot pot! One side is his backer, and the other side is his clansman. No matter which side suffers heavy casualties, the price will be unbearable!
"Is there really no way to stop this battle?" Murong Hao was so anxious that his thoughts started to spin!
"Here we come!" Yu Wenjun suddenly pointed forward!
Everyone's hearts tightened unconsciously, and they looked over one after another. Dust gradually rose up in front of them, and an endless black line appeared in their sight.
The Chu army was not marching very fast. It generally formed four square formations on the left, center, right and back. There were about 40,000 infantry in the middle, of which 30,000 were in the lead. They were all short in stature and had crude weapons and armor. There were 10,000 in the rear.
There were only ordinary soldiers, but the three formations on the left, right and back were all cavalry. A rough estimate revealed that there were as many as one hundred thousand!
Yu Wenjun said again: "General, look at it, aren't the 30,000 people at the front of the infantry Japanese? How could the Japanese come to Jiankang to be driven by Liu Kun?"
Yunfeng shook his head and said: "Who knows? The Japanese could still live a good life for a few years, but they unexpectedly took refuge in Liu Kun. From Yigu's perspective, they must have been driven to the first place, haha~~ Then
Chapter completed!
