Chapter 2065 The Eighth Route Army (Part 2)


    Chapter 2063: The Eighth Route Army (Part 2)


    Zhou Yu actually didn''t quite understand why his lord agreed to this plan. Although the results can be achieved after success are huge, the risks are too great. He did not think that Xuanyuan could detour to Lu Long under the eyes of the Qing Dynasty.


    After hearing what Zhou Yu said, Gongsun Xuanyuan smiled indifferently and then took out a drawing from his arms.


    "This was given to the King of Qin before the division of troops. It not only marked the distribution of the Qing army''s troops in Liaodong, but also the distribution of the Qing army in Liaoxi County."


    “Hiss…”


    Zhou Yu immediately took a breath. How did his spies find out about such confidential secrets?


    Zhou Yu took it and saw that although he couldn''t tell the truth or falsehood, since it was done by the lord, it was unlikely that it was fake.


    After a little thought, Zhou Yu said, "You can go around with this picture with your hands, but just in case, after you land, General, this governor can lead the navy to attack Liaoxi County to attract the attention of the Qing army in western Liaoxi to ensure the safety of the landing army."


    Gongsun Xuanyuan was overjoyed and excitedly grabbed Zhou Yu''s hand and said, "Governor Zhou Gao Yi, Xuanyuan admires it."


    Zhou Yu''s mission this time was just to transport troops. After transporting Gongsun Xuanyuan''s 10,000 troops to Liaodong, all subsequent actions had nothing to do with him. However, he voluntarily led the navy to attack Liaoxi to help Xuanyuan attract firepower, which undoubtedly took great risks.


    You should know that in order to prevent the Qin navy from catching the retreat, Nurhaci not only allowed the entire army to turn off attacks into defense, but also distributed troops to the two counties of Youbeiping and Liaoxi.


    Currently, the Qing army''s troops in the two counties are: 200,000 in Youbeiping, and 100,000 in western and eastern Liaoning.


    The Qing army had already set up a net of heaven and earth in western Liaoning, waiting for the Qin army to land in western Liaoning, and then surrounded and annihilate the Qin army in one fell swoop.


    If Zhou Yu used the navy to attack Liaoxi County at this time, although he could attract the attention of the Liaoxi defenders, it would be equivalent to taking the initiative to deliver them to others, and the risks could be seen.


    Zhou Yu could have completed this task steadily, and there was no need to take risks for Xuanyuan, an irrelevant person, but he took the initiative to put himself in danger. This style really made Gongsun Xuanyuan admire him.


    Zhou Yu was a little uncomfortable with Xuanyuan''s enthusiasm, pulled out his hands that were caught by Xuanyuan and smiled dryly, "Zhou Yu just did what he should do."


    "Governor Gao Yi of Zhou, if you win this battle, the governor will be the first achievement."


    “No…”


    Zhou Yu hurriedly refused. Although it was dangerous for him to use the navy to attack western Liaoning, he was completely a tiny person compared to Xuanyuan who was deeply involved in the enemy''s rear and had no possibility of comparison at all.


    Zhou Yu just had a feint attack, as long as he avoided being completely surrounded by the Qing army, he could just take the sea to retreat on the return boat. The Qing army''s cavalry could not chase Zhou Yu to the sea.


    Once Gongsun Xuanyuan''s traces are exposed, all directions will be under the enemy. Except for a few top generals in the world, they can fight with their own bravery. The soldiers of the army can''t escape even if they want to run away. At that time, they will only end up being wiped out by the entire army.


    The landing army has taken such a big risk, how could Zhou Yu steal their military achievements?


    After a night of chatting, Zhou Yu and Xuanyuan both had a good impression of each other, and the subsequent cooperation was naturally extremely harmonious.


    The next morning, with Zhou Yu''s order, the Qingzhou naval fleet immediately left Tianjin Port and headed towards Liaodong County hundreds of miles away.


    Among Gongsun Xuanyuan''s 10,000 elite troops, most of them were landslides, and even fewer ones crossed the river by boat, let alone going to sea. But having not experienced it means freshness, so when I went out to sea just now, the soldiers were obviously extremely excited and ran to the deck to see the scenery on the sea. They were scolded by the captain before they reluctantly returned to the cabin.


    Of course, this excitement did not last long. After just one day, they felt the malice of the sea.


    The day after heading to Liaodong, heavy rain broke out on the sea, and the violent storm caused the hull to shake very hard. How could a land duck who had never taken a boat stand this?


    Soon there was seasickness reaction in the army, and the number was quite large, accounting for half of the total. Even because of seasickness, many soldiers were unable to eat because they vomited out immediately after they finished their meal.


    Among these seasick people, the most unexpected thing is that Sun Lingming, the strongest in the army, actually had a seasick reaction.


    The sea doesn’t recognize people. No matter how strong you are, you will still be dizzy if you should be seasick.


    This heavy rain weakened the Qin army''s combat effectiveness by at least 70%. However, good and bad luck depend on each other. With heavy rain as a cover, the Qing army naturally could not find the Qin army that appeared in the western Liaoning waters.


    Under Zhou Yu''s leadership, the Qingzhou navy sailed against the storm. After another day of sailing, the fleet finally passed through the heavy rain area.


    At this point, the landing army''s combat effectiveness was only 20% or 30%, but the fleet also entered the Liaodong waters, not far from its destination Pingguo County.


    On the plywood, Sun Lingming was lying on the chair, looking listless and hopeless.


    He was a person who had been on a boat and had never had seasickness before. He thought he would not be seasick, but he obviously overestimated himself.


    It is obviously not the same as sailing in the inland to cross the river and going to sea. Sun Lingming is not seasick when riding inland to not be seasick when riding inland does not mean that he will not be seasick at sea.


    The voyage these days has cost Sun Lingming his life, but it has caused him to die, which has made him secretly swear in his heart that he will not go to sea in the future.


    "I, Lao Sun, was not defeated by Luo Shixin, nor was he, Yuan Hong. In the end, I was defeated by mere waves. I was so wise." Sun Lingming said weakly.


    Jia Fu, who was not seasick, smiled gloating when he heard this and joked: "Sun Lingming, you don''t know a lot of big words, and now you can use idioms? But the word Yingming Jinsang is indeed well used."


    If this is normal, even if Jia Fu is the lord''s cousin, Sun Lingming would have to teach Jia Fu a lesson in the name of a competition, but he really has no intention of paying attention to Jia Fu''s jokes now.


    Seeing that Sun Lingming ignored him, Jia Fu was a little excited. After looking into the distance with a thousand-mile mirror, he quickly patted Sun Lingming on the shoulder and shouted, "Look, look quickly."


    "You want to lie again? I, Lao Sun, won''t be fooled by you."


    "Who lied to you? This time it''s true. It''s the mainland. We''re in Liaodong."


    Seeing that Jia Fu''s expression was not like a fake, Sun Lingming suddenly felt excited and quickly got up and snatched the Qianli Mirror. When he saw that it was really a mainland, he suddenly howled excitedly.


    "I can finally get off the boat."
