Day 3.

Zhao Kuangyi is a person who likes to jump up and down, and is very active in doing things, but at the same time, he is also a very flamboyant person, likes to shout a few words when he does everything, and makes a little merit for fear that others will not know. In addition, Li Jingjin has been sending people to infiltrate the Northern Zhou monarchs and ministers over the years.

Therefore, Zhao Kuangyi's intention to attack Ji Mingdu reached Li Jingjin's ears in the most secret and fast way.

On this day, Li Jingjin stood on the map, staring at his five levels and was silent for a long time.

Time is passing bit by bit, and the time set by Zhao Kuangyi to attack Ji Mingdu is also approaching bit by bit.

All the generals stood beside Li Jingjin, anxiously waiting for him to give the order.

Li Jingjin did not give an order for a long time.

A general walked out of the queue and asked in a loud voice: "Your Highness, the matter is urgent, please give an order immediately!"

The general is the faction of Liu Gan, the general of Jimingdu. He was looking at Li Jingjin nervously at this moment, and he was very worried that Li Jingjin would declare a personal vendetta, and he was unwilling to help Ji Mingdu.

Then, another general also stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, the hour is not early, what does Your Highness think we should do?"

The general was Li Jingjin's own subordinate.

Li Jingjin was still looking at the map with his hands in his hands.

He didn't speak, and the generals kept watching him. The Southern Tang Dynasty acted differently from the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the Southern Tang Dynasty had the habit of speaking from top to bottom, Li Jingjin had won so many battles since he led the army, so that Zhao Kuangyi and Zhao Kuangyin were all defeated by his subordinates, relying on his arbitrariness.

After a long while, when all the generals were anxiously waiting, Li Jingjin spoke, and he said in a deep voice: "What if Chai Rong attacks another checkpoint while we are defending Jimingdu with all our might?"

The generals were shocked, and their brains, which couldn't wait to defend after receiving the news, instantly sobered up. A general looked at the five levels on the map and said tentatively: "Your Highness thinks that this is Chai Rong's strategy to attack the west?"

Li Jingjin said in a deep voice: "If I were Chai Rong, I would also do this strategy." ”

The generals glanced at each other and looked at the map at the same time, and at this time, even Du Gan's faction, which had been clamoring the most just now, quieted down.

What is the military strength of the two sides, both sides know it, if Chai Rongxing is attacking the east and the west at this time, it is really impossible to prevent it.

After a while, one of the generals asked cautiously, "What does Your Highness think we should do?"

Li Jingjin's fingers slid across the four checkpoints other than Jimingdu.

After a moment, his finger pointed at two of the levels, "Chai Rong, this man has always been wide open and closed when he marches and fights, if he wants to attack, he will definitely only attack these two places!"

Hearing him say so arbitrarily, a general hurriedly said, "But Your Highness, what if the expectation is wrong?"

Li Jingjin turned his head slowly, his eyes stared at the generals like electricity, and said word by word: "If the expectation is wrong, then my Southern Tang army will be defeated, and Zhao Kuangyi will go straight to the Southern Tang Dynasty with a great victory." But," he raised his voice and shouted loudly: "If the bet is right, then his road to becoming the emperor can be cut off from now on, and I, the Southern Tang Dynasty, will take its place!" In the silence of the generals in the audience, Li Jingjin said in a deep voice: "I, Li Jingjin, voluntarily bear all the consequences of this battle!"

After a long silence, a general stepped forward and replied, "No!"

All the generals lined up at the same time, and at the same time responded loudly: "Follow the prince's order!"

......

In the middle of the night, the sound of frogs is endless, and it is the deepest time to sleep.

At some point, a firelight broke the silence. In an instant, fires erupted, lighting up the entire sky.

At the Xiyu ferry, almost suddenly, the north shore was full of fire, countless Northern Zhou troops, countless ships formed a huge black shadow, and then, the sound of war drums came, and in the waves rushing into the sky, dozens of big ships lined up moved at the same time.

In the first light of the morning, the 70,000 naval forces of the Northern Zhou Dynasty launched an attack at the same time, galloping towards Xiyudu with the momentum of overwhelming the mountains and the sea.

In the blink of an eye, Xiyudu appeared in Chai Rong's field of vision.

Chai Rong held the flag high behind him, the waves in front of him were mighty, he looked at the Xiyudu that was getting closer and closer, at this time, it was the last dark time before dawn, and on the dark lake, even the wind was a little ashamed.

Seeing that the other side was so quiet, the Southern Tang Army was clearly defenseless, and a general said loudly to Chai Rong: "Your Majesty, it seems that Li Jingjin has been fooled." ”

As soon as the general's voice fell, suddenly, there was a rapid sound of military drums on the other side, and at the same time, I don't know who shouted, suddenly, the Xiyu ferry was in flames, and in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, everyone was in a daze, only to see rows of black soldiers appear at the Xiyu ferry, and at the same time, there are also sailors on both sides of the ferry, which are endless, and the side can hardly be seen.

As soon as these naval armies appeared, all the monarchs and ministers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty turned pale: there were 100,000 naval troops that could not be seen at a glance. And standing on the tallest ship in the middle, isn't it Li Jingjin? Miserable, they have fallen into Li Jingjin's encirclement!

Suddenly, the faces of the Northern Zhou monarchs and ministers were as white as earth, and behind Chai Rong, a general whispered in a trembling voice: "Could it be that Heaven's will wants to kill me?"

Since Chai Rong's incident, he has been smooth sailing, and this is the first time, he clearly feels the words "God is going to kill me".

Because it was too desperate, the Northern Zhou army was as quiet as a chicken, everyone looked at Chai Rong with white faces, some generals and soldiers had blushed, and everyone was thinking: The body of the big husband Ma Leather is an ordinary thing, but it's a big deal to confess this time!

Chai Rong never imagined that the strategy he thought was foolproof would be such a result. He was stunned for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, Chai Rong burst out laughing.

His voice was naturally deep and blew far away in the river breeze. Turning his head, Chai Rong looked at Li Jingjin, who had sailed directly opposite him, and said in a loud voice: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really calculating! I just don't know, how did His Highness know that I was going to attack Xiyudu?"

Victory is in sight, and seeing that the generation of heroes in front of him is about to be captured and killed by his own hands, Li Jingjin is full of spirit. Hearing this, he laughed and replied loudly: "Li Mou has watched what His Majesty has done in his life, and knows that His Majesty likes to open and close the door the most in his life, and I have five checkpoints, and only Xiyudu and Guanhudu can make Your Majesty happy." ”

Chai Rong understood. He pressed the saber on his waist heavily, and with a whoosh, he pulled out the saber and said, "The skill is not as good as others, and I Chai Rong is convinced." In that case, I will fight to the death with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today!"

As soon as Chai Rong's voice fell, the 70,000 Northern Zhou troops behind him raised their weapons in their hands and shouted, "Fight to the death!"

The people of the Southern Tang Dynasty were so frightened by this earth-shattering shout that they took a step back, and one of the generals almost fell to the ground.

Seeing that these Northern Zhou people are still so united and willing to die for Chai Rong without hesitation, behind Li Jingjin, a veteran said with emotion: "Everyone in the world says that Chai Rong is very popular, it seems that this is not false." ”

Li Jingjin sneered when he heard this, and he said in a cold voice: "Chai Rong has the greatest reputation, and it will also be my stepping stone!" When the Southern Tang generals heard this, they all shouted loudly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is blessed with all the heavens!"

Words like "Ten thousand blessings to the sky" have always been called a generation of emperors. Hearing the shouts of the generals, Li Jingjin laughed, in the morning breeze, he was full of spirit, and he felt that in his life, he had never been so happy and so proud.

Li Jingjin thought, this is just the beginning, today is just the beginning of all the glory!

In the morning breeze, Li Jingjin was very proud, and the monarchs and ministers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty were determined to fight to the death, and for a while, even the lake breeze was a little whimpering.

At this moment, suddenly, someone in the Southern Tang Army made a startled sound, and as the voice sounded, more and more people turned their heads to look downstream.

The generals of the Southern Tang Dynasty also followed everyone's gaze, and at this look, their faces changed together.

In Li Jingjin's sunken face, I saw that at the end of Jiang Tian, one after another, there were big boats that stretched to the end of the sky. These big ships cover the sky and the sun, and there is no end in sight.

At this time, someone in the Northern Zhou also discovered these big ships, and in a burst of drum noise, the mighty fleet that came from a distance finally appeared in everyone's field of vision.

After seeing the flag of this miraculous fleet, Chai Rong was stunned at first, and then he laughed out loud in a blink of an eye. In the midst of laughter, Chai Rong said loudly: "Li Jingjin, it seems that this time you can't take my Chai's life!"

It turned out that on the fleet, on the flag flying high, there was a word "Cui" clearly written, and then looking at the style of the fleet and the dress of the soldiers, it was clearly owned by Wu Yuejun. Everyone knows that Boling Cui Zixuan has lived in Wuyue for many years and is friends with the lord of Wuyue. I'm afraid that the fleet in front of me is Cui Zixuan's borrowing of the navy from Wu Yue.

In the speculation of everyone, the fleet got closer and closer, and gradually, the flag that belonged to the Boling Cui clan, together with the flag of Wu Yuejun, appeared clearly in everyone's field of vision. Looking at this Wu Yue naval army, which had 50,000 people, Li Jingjin's face turned pale, and behind him, all the Southern Tang generals had already retreated at the same time!

Seeing that Li Jing's face was purple, Chai Rong laughed and said, "Li Jingjin, this is the heavens that will not destroy my Chai Rong." In Li Jingjin's hesitation, he shouted again: "Now that you and I have equal military strength, even if we fight, we will lose both, so it is better to retreat from each other and return to the camp, what does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince think?"

Li Jingjin is very unwilling!

But no matter how unwilling he was, he couldn't do anything, and as the fleet got closer and closer, Cui Zixuan's disgusting face was clearly visible.

Gritting his teeth, Li Jingjin shouted violently: "Let's retreat!" As soon as the voice fell, the flags of the Southern Tang Army flew and the ships began to move.

Cui Zixuan is naturally a smart person, as soon as the Nantang fleet moved, he immediately waved his flag and ordered the fleet to stop advancing.

After a while, the Southern Tang army gradually withdrew from everyone's eyes, and when they disappeared at the Xiyu Ferry, there was an earth-shattering cheer in the Northern Zhou army, and Chai Rong also wiped a cold sweat and laughed. Amidst loud laughter, Chai Rong's ship headed towards Cui Zixuan's fleet. Later, Zhao Kuangyin and the others also smiled sincerely and said, "This Cui Zixuan is really timely." ”
