Chapter 1596 Flooding Qi Army
Chapter 1594: Flooding Qi Army
"I understand that these five thousand navy soldiers are Li Jing''s abandoned son. His real purpose is to hold back our army''s pace." Wang Yanzhang said with a confident look on his face.
In addition to this, Wang Yanzhang really couldn''t imagine other reasons. After all, both sides of the Yellow River are from the Qi army, and the Qin navy has the only space for movement to move the Yellow River and the marginal areas on both sides. Once they get ashore, they will be surrounded by the army immediately, and they will not get any supplies on the water.
If you can’t fight or escape, it’s only a matter of time before you can’t escape.
"Did you give up the only five thousand navy troops, but just to hold our army back for half a month? Is Li Jing''s mind flooding?" Wang Yantong said with confusion.
A strange look flashed in Zhu Tianpeng''s eyes and said, "Maybe Li Jing has other purposes. He just wanted to stop our army to prevent our army from destroying his plan, so he would rather give up the five thousand navy troops than to delay our army."
"Other purpose? Is it Wang Mang? Li Jing actually wants to deal with Wang Mang?" Wang Yanzhang said in surprise.
Zhu Tianpeng''s eyes flashed with a flash of light and he sneered: "This is very likely. After all, compared to our Qi army, the temporarily pieced together Wang Mang army has weaker combat power. Only if our army and our army do not intervene, Li Jing can defeat Wang Mang."
As soon as this was said, all the generals suddenly felt enlightened. Wang Yantong said, "Lord, since we have discovered Li Jing''s purpose, should we help Wang Mang?"
"No, even if Li Jing defeated Wang Mang, he would probably have suffered both losses. Our army just took advantage of the fisherman''s profits and completely occupied Beihai County and Liangshan County.
The most urgent task is to swallow the fat piece that Li Jing delivered to the door as soon as possible. ”
Zhu Tianpeng was obviously unwilling to continue to be entangled like this, so he immediately ordered Xia Luqi on the north bank to continue to encircle and suppress Li Jing. At the same time, he personally led 10,000 naval troops to encircle Li Jing.
Everything can be one, two, and not three.
Li Jing has crossed the Yellow River twice, and the Qi army has also lost twice. How could he not be able to lose the third time, right?
Not long ago, Li Jing surrounded Song Jiang with three points in the waterway. Now he is also facing the pursuit of Qi army and the waterway. However, Li Jing''s vigilance is obviously not comparable to Song Jiang.
As soon as Xia Luqi on the north bank of the Yellow River had just made a move, and even the encirclement had not been arranged, the Qin navy moving on the north bank of the Yellow River was like a frightened bird and ran away.
The third encirclement of Qi army ended in failure again.
However, Zhu Tianpeng also took the chance this time. Although the army was defeated and the navy did not catch up, he still led the navy to continue pursuing and ordered an ambush on the south bank in advance. As long as the Qin army logged onto the south bank, it would be the only way to be annihilated.
Although the fleets of both sides were smooth sailing, the Qi army''s warships were transformed by Zhu Tianpeng and were faster than the Liangshan army ships stolen by the Qin army. Although they finally barely caught up with the Qin army''s fleet, the Qin army fleet had abandoned the ship and went ashore.
"Li Jing, you have been trapped. My king has long expected that you will come ashore here. The soldiers, kill and capture Li Jing alive."
Shortly after the Qin army arrived ashore, they all remembered the shouts of killing from all directions. The Qi army, who had been ambushing, came to kill them, and the Qi navy behind them also landed and came up, which also made the Qin army completely fall into a situation where there are enemies on all sides.
"Haha, unless the Qin army can fly, even with the help of the Daluo gods, they will not be able to escape." Zhu Tianpeng laughed and immediately commanded the navy to launch an attack.
Although the Qin navy was well-trained, it was faced with several times its own land and was besieged from all sides. Such a battle situation could no longer be reversed by human forces. Although it resisted desperately, it was still difficult to reverse the defeat.
The war lasted only for an hour. None of the Qin navy escaped, two thousand died in battle and surrendered by 2,500. It was annihilated by the entire army, while the total casualties of the Qi army were less than one thousand.
"I thought that at most five hundred casualties, I could eat the Qin army, but I didn''t expect that more than eight hundred casualties would end up in the end. Li Jing was indeed good at training troops."
Zhu Tianpeng felt that he did not expect that the Qin army could burst out with such a high combat power under the siege from all sides.
"By the way, have you caught Li Jing?" Zhu Tianpeng asked. "I caught it, but I only caught a substitute."
Hearing this, Zhu Tianpeng frowned slightly. Although all this was within his expectations, Li Jing would never really wait for being captured in the army, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
"Wait, this number is a bit wrong. Didn''t the Qin navy have 5,000 troops? Why is it that the total number of corpses is only 4,500? Where have the other 500 people gone?" Zhu Tianpeng asked with a serious face.
"This... According to the prisoners of war, when he crossed the Yellow River for the first time, Li Jing led five hundred sailors to the west."
"To the west? To the west?" Zhu Tianpeng couldn''t help but murmur.
The most reasonable explanation for this is that Li Jing gave up the 4,500 naval army and ran away with the other 500 naval army, but Zhu Tianpeng always felt something was wrong.
"Lao Zhang, you didn''t notice that the water level of the Yellow River is much shallower than in previous years?"
"Huh? Don''t say it, it''s true. As for this season, it shouldn''t be like this?"
The two sailors carrying the bodies discussed.
The speaker is unintentional, and he listens with intention.
Zhu Tianpeng happened to hear this passage and suddenly moved his heart. He glanced at the water level of the Yellow River and found that it was indeed much shallower than in previous years. He then looked at the main force of the 70,000 Qi army gathered on both sides of the Yellow River.
"Um?"
Zhu Tianpeng seemed to understand something at once. His face instantly changed from astonishment to fear, and he roared, "Hurry, evacuate from both sides of the Yellow River."
Wang Yanzhang was stunned when he saw this and asked inexplicably: "Master, what did you say?"
"I said, the infantry, immediately, leave the Yellow River, and the navy will board the boat and go directly to the sea. There will also be flags and tell the other side to withdraw immediately."
Seeing that the lord''s expression was not like a fake, Wang Yanzhang also realized the seriousness of the problem and hurriedly went to send a message, but a total of 50,000 troops were crowded at this narrow ferry. It would obviously take time to withdraw quickly.
Looking at the Qi army on both sides of the Yellow River, Zhu Tianpeng secretly prayed in his heart: "I hope I''m thinking too much."
Rumbling…
Suddenly, with the deafening roar and yelling sound, I saw the surging waves of water coming towards both sides of the Yellow River like a rolling sky and earth.
Zhu Tianpeng saw this and suddenly widened his eyes and roared unwillingly: "Li Jing, do you still have humanity? How dare you attack with water?"
At this time, Zhu Tianpeng could not understand that Li Jing crossed the Yellow River four times not to delay time to deal with Wang Mang, but to attract the main force of the Qi army to both sides of the Yellow River, so as to facilitate Li Jing to implement a water attack strategy.
