Chapter 1594: Flooding the Qi Army

"I kind of understand, these 5,000 sailors are Li Jing's outcasts, and his real purpose is to drag down the pace of our army." Wang Yanzhang said with a determined face.

In addition to this, Wang Yanzhang really couldn't think of any other reason, after all, both sides of the Yellow River were Qi army people, and the only space that the Qin army's navy could operate was the Yellow River, as well as the marginal areas on both sides.

Fight and fight, and you can't escape, and it's only a matter of time before the whole army is annihilated.

"Abandon the only 5,000 sailors, but only to drag our army for half a month? Li Jing's brain is in water? Wang Yantong said with a puzzled face.

Zhu Tianpeng's eyes flashed with a hint of color, and he said: "Maybe Li Jing has other purposes, dragging our army is just to prevent our army from sabotaging his plan, so he would rather give up the 5,000 water army than drag our army." ”

"Other purposes? Could it be Wang Mang? Li Jing actually wants to deal with Wang Mang? Wang Yanzhang was surprised.

Zhu Tianpeng's eyes flashed, and he sneered: "This possibility is very high, after all, compared to our Qi army, the combat effectiveness of Wang Mang's army that was temporarily put together is weaker, and only if our army and our army do not intervene, Li Jing can defeat Wang Mang." ”

As soon as these words came out, all the generals suddenly came to their senses, and Wang Yantong said: "Lord, since you have discovered Li Jing's purpose, should we help Wang Mang?" ”

"No, even if Li Jing defeats Wang Mang, I'm afraid he will lose both, and our army will just take advantage of the fisherman's profits, and then completely occupy Beihai County and Liangshan County.

The top priority is to swallow the piece of fat that Li Jing sent to the door as soon as possible. ”

Zhu Tianpeng obviously did not want to continue to be so entangled, and immediately ordered Xia Luqi on the north bank to continue the encirclement and suppression, and at the same time personally led 10,000 sailors to personally encircle Li Jing.

Everything can be one, two, not three.

Li Jing has already crossed the Yellow River twice, and he also let the Qi army pounce twice, so it is impossible to pounce on the air for the third time, right?

Not long ago, Li Jing divided the waterway and rode three points to encircle Song Jiang, and now he is also facing the pursuit of the Qi army and the waterway army, but Li Jing's vigilance is obviously not comparable to Song Jiang.

As soon as Xia Luqi on the north bank of the Yellow River made a move, and even the encirclement had not yet been arranged, the Qin army and navy operating on the north bank of the Yellow River directly boarded the boat and ran away like frightened birds.

The third siege of the Qi army ended in failure again.

However, this time Zhu Tianpeng also learned a fluke, although the army was empty, and the navy did not catch up, but he still led the navy to continue the pursuit, and ordered an ambush to be arranged on the south bank in advance, as long as the Qin army landed on the south bank, it would only be annihilated.

Although the fleets of both sides were smooth sailing, the warships of the Qi army were transformed by Zhu Tianpeng, and they were faster than the ships of the Liangshan army that the Qin army had robbed, and finally although they barely caught up with the Qin army's fleet, the Qin army's fleet had abandoned the ship and went ashore.

"Li Jing, you have been tricked, the king of my family has long expected that you will go ashore here, soldiers, kill and capture Li Jing alive."

Not long after the Qin army came ashore, they remembered the shouting of killing in all directions, and the Qi army that had been ambushed for a long time was killed, and the Qi naval army in the rear also landed and killed, which also made the Qin army completely fall into a situation where the enemy was on all sides.

"Haha, unless Qin Jun can fly now, even with the help of the Da Luo Immortals, he won't be able to escape." Zhu Tianpeng laughed, and then commanded the navy to also attack.

Although the Qin army was well-trained, it faced several times its own land, and was besieged from all sides, such a battle situation could not be reversed by manpower, although it resisted desperately, it was still difficult to reverse the defeat.

This battle lasted only one hour, and not a single person from the Qin army escaped, killing 2,000 and surrendering 2,500, which can be described as the annihilation of the entire army, while the total casualties of the Qi army were less than 1,000.

"I thought that with a maximum of five hundred casualties, I would be able to eat this live Qin army, but I didn't expect that in the end, there were more than eight hundred casualties, and Li Jing really had a hand in training."

Zhu Tianpeng felt that he didn't expect that under the siege from all sides, the Qin army would be able to burst out with such a high combat effectiveness.

"By the way, did you catch Li Jing?" Zhu Tianpeng asked.

"I caught it, but only a stand-in."

Hearing this, Zhu Tianpeng's brows furrowed slightly, although all this was within his expectations, it was absolutely impossible for Li Jing to really wait in the army to be captured, but he also felt a little uneasy in his heart.

"Wait, this number is a little wrong, doesn't it mean that the Qin army has 5,000 people? How come there are only four thousand five hundred in total including corpses? Where did the other 500 go? Zhu Tianpeng asked with a solemn face.

"This ...... According to the confession of the prisoners of war, when crossing the Yellow River for the first time, Li Jing led 500 sailors to the west. ”

"To the west? To the west? Zhu Tianpeng couldn't help muttering.

The most reasonable explanation for this is that Li Jing gave up the 4,500 sailors and ran away with the other 500 sailors, but Zhu Tianpeng always felt that something was wrong.

"Lao Zhang, didn't you notice that the water level of the Yellow River is much shallower than in previous years?"

"Huh? Not to mention, really, at this time of year, it stands to reason that it shouldn't be like this? ”

The two sailors who were carrying the corpses discussed.

The speaker has no intention, but listens with a heart.

Zhu Tianpeng, who happened to hear these words, suddenly moved in his heart, glanced at the water level of the Yellow River, and found that it was indeed much shallower than in previous years, and then looked at the main force of 70,000 Qi troops gathered on both sides of the Yellow River.

"Huh?"

Zhu Tianpeng seemed to understand something, his face instantly changed from shock to horror, and roared: "Quick, quickly evacuate both sides of the Yellow River." ”

Wang Yanzhang couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this, and asked a little uncertainly: "Lord, what did you say?" ”

"The king said, the infantry army, immediately, immediately, leave the Yellow River, and the navy will get on the boat and go directly to the sea. There are also flags and slogans, telling the other side to withdraw immediately. ”

Seeing that the lord's expression did not seem to be fake, Wang Yanzhang also realized the seriousness of the problem, and hurriedly went to summon the interrogation, but there were 50,000 troops crowded at this small ferry, and it obviously took time to withdraw quickly.

Looking at the Qi army on both sides of the Yellow River in an orderly and thorough manner, Zhu Tianpeng secretly prayed in his heart: "I hope I think too much." ”

Thundered......

Suddenly, with the deafening roar and drumming sound, I saw the raging waves of the water, sweeping towards both sides of the Yellow River.

Zhu Tianpeng's eyes widened when he saw this, and he roared unwillingly: "Li Jing, do you still have the heart to dare to attack with water?" ”

At this time, Zhu Tianpeng could not understand that Li Jing's fourth crossing of the Yellow River was not to delay time to deal with Wang Mang at all, but to attract the main force of the Qi army to both sides of the Yellow River, so as to facilitate Li Jing's water attack plan.

Two more, there are still three chapters owed, and thanks to Moromo for the 10,000 starting coins for the reward, thanks to the rotten wood for the 10,000 starting coins for the consumption of the reward, and two more chapters need to be added, and a total of five chapters are still owed.
