Chapter 511: The Battle of the Rivers

Fu Rong looked at Fu Jian with a strange gaze: What's wrong with this majesty? Why is he a little distraught? Isn't he scared by the Jin people?

But can you say such a thing?

After thinking about it, he smiled: "What Your Majesty said is extremely true! Then, why don't we deal with the internal affairs, how about it? I see that Murong Chui and the others seem to be ready to move!"

"Brother Yu, your opinion is right, but we can't deal with them right now! Okay, let's finish this war first, and then we can talk about solving internal problems! If we lose, I'm afraid that they will jump out one by one, so we still have to be safe in this battle! I hope that the morale of the Jin people will be lowered soon, so that we can drive straight into the Jin Kingdom and take the Jin Kingdom! Murong Trai can't clean it up, if the Murong family changes, we can't sit back and relax! Alas, it is an eventful season, our superficial scenery, in fact, is also a big gamble, it depends on the will of God!" Fu Jian sighed.

Fu Rong understood at this time and smiled: "In this case, we will take the defensive position first, and when the enemy is inert, we will carry out an all-round attack, after all, our strength is three times that of the enemy!"

How did they know that the Eastern Jin Dynasty had only 50,000 soldiers and horses assembled at this time!

Although the Eastern Jin Dynasty claimed to have 80,000 Beifu soldiers, Jingzhou and other places also needed to be defended, so how could they all go to the east bank of the river to fight with each other?

Xiao Han, Xie Shi, and Xiao Yu were also watching Qianqin's military camp, and when they saw it, all three of them smiled!

Back at the camp, Mengjing and Princess Taiping happened to prepare the wine and food, and when they came in happily, Mengjing smiled: "Three generals, seeing your happy faces, is it possible that this battle of the river is certain?" Haha, you might as well say it, although we will win, but how to win, we don't know!"

"Hehe, the process is more important than the result! Just by looking at the expressions of our three generals, you know that you already have a score in your heart! Okay, let's talk about the war while drinking! Sister Meng, Sister Yue, Xue'er, we women also have to express our opinions! Of course, there is also Yingying, haha, this time, you have to stand alone!" Princess Taiping smiled.

Xie Shi was a little upset when he heard this, but he couldn't refute her, so he had to laugh: "What does Her Royal Highness the princess think?

"Big brother, Her Royal Highness the princess said, let's talk about the war while drinking! Well, tonight, let's talk widely, and all generals above the rank of captain can participate in the discussion! Haha, let's strive to start the war in five days, so that the former Qin people are confused!" Xiao Han smiled, his eyes flashing.

He had basically established the time for the battle, and Xiao Yu immediately echoed: "Well, what the forward governor said is very good, I completely agree! Then, we will start the war in five days, what does the metropolitan governor think?"

Xie Shi didn't have a bottom in his heart, but it was inconvenient to refute their opinions, so he agreed with a smile!

Xiao Han drank the wine while holding Princess Taiping's waist and smiled: "Xue'er, how do you think we should fight? This battle is not easy to fight, it would be better if Wan'er was here!haha, I'm not talking about Wang Wanha!" After speaking, he smiled awkwardly.

Indeed, this time he thought of Shangguan Wan'er, with her there, he was afraid that he wouldn't worry about everything! Fortunately, Princess Taiping's talent could be compared with Shangguan Wan'er, and Pei Yingxue just made up for her roughness!

"Hehe, the little pervert has remembered our Wan'er now!" Princess Taiping kissed him and whispered in his ear.

Wang Wan's face turned red and she didn't dare to speak, but she hurriedly poured wine.

Pei Yingxue thought for a moment before she smiled: "Why don't we take risks boldly and cross the river to fight a decisive battle with the former Qin people?"

"Ah!" all the soldiers exclaimed.

Xie Shi was naturally very unhappy, and said in a deep voice: "Brother and sister, this idea is really ridiculous! We have only tens of thousands of people thrown into the west of the river, just like a mud cow entering the sea, with no landing, and there are nearly a million people on the other side, how can we resist?"

Obviously, he wanted to veto Pei Yingxue's suggestion.

When Princess Taiping heard this, she thought for a moment and agreed: "Very good, this idea is very good! We Xie Dadu Governor can't think of it, Fu Jian and Fu Rong can't even think of it, haha, it's refreshing, it's so decided, what does my brother think?"

"Very good, haha, Xue'er's idea is very bold and in line with our consistent combat characteristics! Haha, our assault force is only 5,000 people, haha, Liu Gao, it is your 5,000 elite soldiers! This time, the Governor of Pontus personally raised troops to charge, Brother Yu, you followed up with 30,000 people, hehe, I hope we can fight to Chang'an! My sister likes Chang'an the most, and the Governor of Pontus likes it too!" Xiao Han didn't pay attention to Xie Shi's objections, but actively followed up their ideas!

"No! haha, General Xie is really mighty!" Xiao Yu hurriedly said.

"Ah!" When everyone heard this, they all grew up again: What's the matter? Wouldn't it be too risky for the Vanguard Governor to personally lead his troops into battle?

Xie Shi sighed and smiled bitterly: "Well, since Brother Xuan is willing to personally lead the troops to fight, then, it will be a different matter! Then, the governor of Pontus will personally lead the remaining 20,000 horses to follow up the battle! However, we must design it well, so as not to be made dumplings by others!"

All of a sudden, the plan is set!

Xie Shi was still not at ease, and immediately wrote another chapter and reported it to the imperial court! Who knew that Xie An completely agreed with Xiao Han's suggestion this time, and asked him to actively cooperate with Xie Xuan in the battle, and there must be no mistake!

Princess Taiping read Xie An's post and smiled: "Big brother, we are going to collect this palindrome, this is the work of the prime minister, compared to the calligraphy after being drunk, there is another realm, this princess likes it!"

Xie Shi hurriedly handed over the book to her and smiled: "Haha, I didn't expect Her Royal Highness the princess to have such a hobby! Very good, then you will go to war in three days, should we give Fu Jian and Fu Jian a war letter?"

"Of course we want to, we are fighting on behalf of the sky, of course, everything must be in accordance with the rules! Hehe, general, why don't we ask the former Qin people to retreat five miles so that we can cross the river to fight, how about it?" Pei Yingxue continued to design.

Princess Taiping thought for a moment and was happy: "Well, very good, our one hundred iron cavalry can be the vanguard of the vanguard, we will take the lead in the charge, Liu Gao, your five thousand elite soldiers will follow up, there must be no mistake!"

"No!" Liu Jian hurriedly responded.

Pei Yingxue then wrote a letter, asking Liu Jiao to send soldiers across the river into the former Qin military camp to fight: "Jun hangs the army deeply, and puts the formation to force the water, this is a long-term plan, not those who want to fight quickly." If there is a small number of formations, so that the Jin soldiers can cross, and the victory is decided, isn't it also good?

When Fu Jian heard this, he was surprised: "Haha, what is this Xie Xuan thinking, he dares to cross the river to fight with us, oops, I don't fulfill him, it seems that we have no grace, hehe, very good, then, let's retreat five miles, what do the generals think?"

"Your Majesty, no, if our army retreats, I am afraid that its morale will be low, so how can it be against the other party's hundreds of thousands of troops?" Yao Chang immediately expressed a different opinion, and his face was unhappy: What do you mean by retreating before fighting?

Other generals, such as Mao Dang and Han Lin, immediately agreed, and demanded to cross the river to fight immediately! They thought that the Jin army was a little discouraged and wanted to take the Jin state in one go!

Seeing this, although Fu Jian was happy, he frowned, but then smiled: "Haha, General Yao, don't be in a hurry, the art of war has a cloud of 'half-crossing and attacking', let's attack, if the other party attacks us half-stream, it is obviously inappropriate, and our losses will be very large!

"Well, Your Majesty is wise! The main point of this battle is that Mao Dang and Yao Chang must attack decisively, and we will attack them when the southerners have no place to stand, so we will win!" Fu Rong thought for a while and immediately agreed.

Subsequently, Fu Jian sent an envoy to the Jin army and said that he was willing to retreat five miles, and after the Jin army crossed the river, the two sides would have a decisive battle!

Xiao Han received the letter and was happy: "Haha, Fu Jian has a plan! Liu Gao, you lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to cross the river from the front! My 100 cavalry detour from the north, we will hit Fu Jian's camp directly, they will definitely be chaotic! Brother Yu, your 30,000 soldiers will follow up, big brother, let's pursue with all our strength and strive for success in the first battle!"

"Okay, then let's fight to the death! Tomorrow morning, everyone has breakfast early, let's fight to the death with the former Qin people, haha!" Xie Shi readily agreed this time.

"Fight to the death! Fight to the death!" the soldiers grunted.

Early the next morning, sure enough, Fu Jian ordered the Former Qin army to retreat five miles!

When the Jin army saw that the Former Qin army had begun to retreat, Xiao Han suddenly laughed: "Soldiers, the enemy has been tricked, we will charge with all our strength and strive to defeat the Former Qin army in one fell swoop!

Seeing this, Liu Gao's 5,000 sergeants naturally fought bravely one by one!

Xiao Han and Princess Taiping crossed the river from upstream, and saw that Mao Dang and the others had only retreated two miles, obviously, wanting to attack them, Xiao Han smiled and said: "Haha, General Liu, we charge with all our might, although they are numerous, they are already demoralized at this time, and we will pursue them in one go!" After speaking, he and Princess Taiping drove side by side to the north and took the initiative to attack Fu Jian's Chinese army's big tent.

Seeing this, Liu Gao hurriedly assaulted head-on, and 5,000 soldiers rushed straight to pursue the former Qin army.

The former Qin army didn't expect them to come so fast and so fiercely, even Fu Jian didn't feel frightened when he saw it, and when he was about to suppress the position, the Chinese army that knew Xiaohan and Princess Taiping had rushed towards him!

At this time, Zhu Xu began to make trouble: "The former Qin is defeated, the Jin army is coming, the Jin army is coming! Everyone run!" After speaking, he had already taken the lead in leading more than 1,000 horsemen from his headquarters to flee to Xiangyang.

Now it's okay, one by one the former Qin soldiers thought that the Qin army was really defeated, and when they saw the cavalry of Xiao Han and Princess Taiping rushing straight forward, they were all frightened, and their eyes were spent, thinking that the 100,000 people of the Jin army had been killed in front of them, and they all rushed to escape.

When Fu Jian and Fu Rong wanted to reorganize their soldiers and horses, it was completely too late, and the decline of the army had already formed, and the two sighed and had to run away!

When Xiaohan and Princess Taiping saw it, they were stunned for a while, and then the two looked at each other and smiled, and Princess Taiping was happy: "Okay, refreshing, then Mei'er and Ruoxi, you continue to pursue, we will fight Fu Jian and Fu Rong, and see if we can find those two old boys!"

"No!" Lin Xuemei and Lin Ruoxi were also happy and took the lead in pursuit.

When Xiao Han and Princess Taiping were about to look for Fu Jian and Fu Rong, they couldn't find them at all, there were too many soldiers and horses in Qianqin, and even Lin Xuemei and Lin Ruoxi were gone for a while! Xiao Han and Princess Taiping had to sigh and fly into the air, only to see that the Lin sisters had chased to Xiangyang, and they were relieved!

Princess Taiping hurriedly smiled: "Mei'er, until Xiangyang, our focus is to recover Xiangyang, and together with Brother Yu and Big Brother's army, annihilate the enemy!"

"Got it, haha, rest assured, Your Royal Highness the Princess, let's stop when we get to Xiangyang, let's go to Xiangyang to prepare wine and food, and welcome Her Royal Highness the Princess and several generals!" Lin Xuemei saw that they were in the air, and quickly flew up.
