Chapter 1600 The enemy comes from the sea?


    Chapter 1598: The enemy comes from the sea?


    All famous generals have one common advantage, that is, they are cautious, and Li Jing is naturally no exception.


    Since he found something wrong, Li Jing was naturally cautious about it and tried every means to draw out Wang Mang''s intentions.


    What Li Jing did not expect was that in the face of his several tentative actions, Wang Mangjun''s reaction was normal and there was no strange or excessive reaction.


    Li Jing was naturally also wary of Wang Mang''s use of tricks, but after all, the enemy army was just marching towards the battlefield, as if he was going to fight to the death head-on, and did not find any signs of the other party being required to use tricks.


    "Does Wang Mang really think that if there are too many people, you will definitely win? It''s impossible."


    As soon as this idea appeared, it was denied by Li Jing. After all, Wang Mang is not a wise man. If he was really that simple, he would not have caused such great trouble to the Qin army.


    80,000 Northern Han United Army fought against 57,000 Qin troops. On the surface, Wang Mang had a greater chance of winning, but the war was not just about fighting for the number of people. Otherwise, Wang Mang would not have lost so badly in the two battles between Sizhou and Bingnan.


    "Maybe Wang Mang has any other trump card. It is this trump card that gave him confidence, but our army is not without trump card, so we can only see each other again at that time."


    Li Jing was confident that even if Wang Mang really had a trump card, as long as he was not the kind of crushing strength, he would definitely find a way to crack it, so he didn''t care much about what Wang Mang''s trump card was.


    "But you should be more cautious to prevent the ship from capsizing in the gutter."


    Li Jing actively made pre-war preparations and sent a large number of spies to inquire about intelligence, but the result was still nothing.


    The pre-war preparations were already made, but for some reason, the closer the day of the decisive battle, Li Jing''s heart became more and more uneasy.


    "Did I miss something?"


    Li Jing frowned, and after pondering for a long time, he asked Jintai below: "Is there any movement on Zhu Tianpeng in the Yellow River?"


    Jin Tai was stunned. Obviously, he didn''t expect that it was now, and Li Jing would ask Zhu Tianpeng in the rear.


    "At the Yellow River message two days ago, it was said that the Qi navy was still in the Yellow River to rescue disasters."


    As soon as Jintai finished speaking, Qin Ming said carelessly: "Why are you still mentioning Qi Jun at this time? Even if Zhu Tianpeng wants to intervene, he still has to make a living."


    Li Jing nodded silently. Although he was not very relieved about Zhu Tianpeng and felt that retreating troops so easily was not like his style, it was also true that the Qi navy was still far away on the south bank of the Yellow River.


    Now the Qin army and the Northern Han army are about to fight to the decisive battle, and the Qi army is still hundreds of miles away from the battlefield. Unless the Qi army can collectively give it wings, it is absolutely impossible to come here in time.


    "Wang Mang''s trump card, since it''s not Zhu Tianpeng, what exactly is it?"


    The day before the decisive battle, Li Jing was patrolling the camp and accidentally found that the flagpole was floating north. He couldn''t help but ask left and right in surprise: "When did the south wind blow? I remember that when I left the North Sea, it was still the north wind blowing, why did the wind change just by saying that the direction of the wind changed?"


    "I reported to the prefect, the wind direction changed only yesterday, but this is more beneficial to our army." Ran Min said.


    Li Jing suddenly heard the intention in Ran Min''s words and said with a smile: "Our army is in the south and the enemy army is in the north. At this time, the south wind blows. With the help of the wind, the range of our army''s arrows can be increased. This is really God helping me."


    "That''s right, even God is heading towards our army. Wang Mang will definitely lose in this battle." Ran Min said with a smile.


    Li Jing nodded and said nothing, but he remembered the change of the wind direction in his heart, preparing to change his previous arrangements during the decisive battle tomorrow.


    Late at night, after Li Jing handled all military affairs, he looked at the map in front of him seriously. After all, tomorrow''s decisive battle is related to the entire Hebei war, so he has no choice but to be careless.


    As he looked, Li Jing glanced at the position of the Qi army on the south bank of the Yellow River.


    "Wait, the wind direction has changed. Although the Qi navy is far away, it is smooth sailing. It is enough to reach the battlefield in two days." As soon as he thought of this, Li Jing''s face suddenly changed and he shouted, "Come here."


    The decisive battle will be coming tomorrow, so all the generals are ready to rest early tonight to regain their energy, but they didn''t expect that Li Jing would come to the meeting when he fell asleep.


    "ha…"


    Qin Ming fought and said, "The decisive battle will be held tomorrow. Why are you going to have a meeting so late?"


    All the generals nodded. After looking at Li Jing, they found that Li Jing had a dark face. They suddenly felt that something big was about to happen, and they couldn''t help but feel a trembling heart.


    "I have calculated that the wind direction changes, and the Qi navy will be smooth sailing. If you walk the Yellow River waterway, you will be able to reach the battlefield in one and a half days."


    "What?"


    All the generals widened their eyes, and while suddenly realized it, they beat their feet and chests in annoyance.


    They only thought that Zhu Tianpeng was trying to save face, and they were so far away that they would definitely not be able to participate in the war, but they ignored that the south wind was blowing and the navy was smooth sailing, and the marching speed was even much faster than the cavalry.


    Just imagine, when the decisive battle tomorrow, the Qin army was fighting with the Northern Han army in a difficult position, and suddenly was attacked by an elite navy from behind. You can imagine what the outcome of this battle will be.


    "But the prefect, if the Qi army really walks through the Yellow River waterway, it shouldn''t be able to hide it from our spies, right?" Ran Min frowned.


    Li Jing breathed a long breath and said in a deep voice: "I have sent someone to contact you, and I believe there will be news coming soon."


    As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier broke in and reported: "The whereabouts of the Qi navy were not found on the Yellow River waterway, but the Qi navy was indeed missing."


    Hearing this, all the generals breathed a sigh of relief. Taishici said, "Maybe we are thinking too much. The Yellow River waterway is the only way that the Qi navy can go. Since there is no whereabouts, it proves that the Qi army has not come at all."


    "Where did Qi army go?"


    "Maybe it has been withdrawn from Qi State."


    "No, the Yellow River waterway is not the only road."


    Under the confusion of everyone''s eyes, Li Jing strode to the map, pointed to the locations of Beihai and Liangshan, and said, "Beihai and Liangshan are both near Haizhou and County, and our current location is not far from the sea, so as long as you walk on the sea route, the Qi Navy will still arrive in time."


    "Take the sea?"


    All the generals took a breath. After all, sea routes and water routes are not the same concept. The sea is surging, and if you are not careful, it will be annihilated. The navy in the south may not be able to withstand it, let alone the navy in the north.


    "How is this possible?"


    All the generals looked disbelief.


    But Li Jing asked back: "How is it impossible?


    The water attack plan implemented by our army in the Yellow River flooded nearly 50,000 troops in one fell swoop, but the Qi navy was not damaged at all. It can be seen that the navy trained by Zhu Tianpeng himself was extraordinary and may not be able to withstand the storm on the sea. ”


    ?I made up yesterday’s guarantee. I teamed up with a few old classmates to eat chicken yesterday. I played from noon until one at night, so there was no update. Please forgive me, I will definitely update it today.
