If you don't go north, how can you kill the Qi army and the Yuan army without leaving a piece of armor?

Xiao Rui became more and more curious, and he didn't know what dumb riddle Zhang Liang was playing, so he hurriedly asked, "Ovary, what kind of medicine is sold in your gourd?" If you don't go north, where do you go? Hurry up! ”

Zhang Liang said with a smile: "Your Highness, when you go north, you will inevitably pass through Yanjing and meet with the champion Hou, although the champion Hou is far-reaching and can see His Majesty's intentions, but now the northern border passes are full of confrontations, and the enemy's secret agents are dense, once Your Highness appears, it will definitely cause the Qi army and the Yuan army to attack like crazy, because His Royal Highness is too tempting for them." The enemy army is crazy and extremely detrimental to our strategy, so we cannot go north. Before coming, my subordinates had already communicated with Mr. Wenhe and Fengxiao, and I believe that the two of them also told Your Majesty..."

Speaking of this, Zhang Liang pointed to the east and said, "To the northeast is Dongying Mansion, close to the Bohai Sea. Pingbohou was stationed on Kotoshima Island to guard against enemy attacks by sea. The shipbuilding technology of our Great Xia Kingdom is not developed, and it cannot support large-scale sea-crossing operations, but it is more than enough to send five or six thousand of us and horses to the territory of Qi State. Moreover, Shen Wansan led eight sea ships to the north, and the time should come! Boarding the ship from Dongying Mansion and crossing the Bohai Sea, we arrived at the Bincheng of the Qi State, where the Qi navy was stationed, and its purpose was also to prevent the attack of the Great Xia Sea. So we can't go ashore in Bincheng, but bypass the Bohai Bay into the Yellow Sea, continue to the northeast, and go ashore in Dandong! ”

"Dandong Mansion is not a large seaport of Qi State, and there are very few navies stationed there, after we go ashore from there, we can leap our horses to the northwest, go straight into the hinterland of Qi State, and turn him upside down!"

"I see! Wonderful! Xiao Rui's eyes lit up. Although it is a lone army fighting into the hinterland of the enemy country, once it is encircled, the whole army will be annihilated, but Xiao Rui's iron dragoon is a heavy armored cavalry that is not weak in mobility!

Secondly, only half of the gunpowder brought this time was used, and when he came, Xiao Rui was curious about why he had to bring so much gunpowder, Jia Xu stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Be prepared", now I understand, I have long been calculating.

Coupled with gunpowder self-defense, if you want to completely annihilate the iron dragoons, an army of 10,000 or 20,000 is not enough to stuff your teeth, at least 40,000 troops, and it must be cavalry!

"So what are you waiting for! Ovary, let's go now! Xiao Rui immediately shouted.

Zhang Liang nodded.

Subsequently, Xiao Rui ordered Li Yuanfang, Dian Wei and Yang Youji to rectify the iron dragoons and auxiliaries, and then the army left Jeju and headed northeast.

Arrived at Dongying Province the next day.

At this time, fifteen large sea vessels were docked at the mouth of the Yellow River in Dongying Prefecture, eight of which were ships that sailed south with Shen Wansan, and the other seven were transferred from Qin Island by Pingbohou. They docked here yesterday morning, waiting for Xiao Rui's arrival.

In charge of this transportation was a general soldier under the command of Pingbo Hou, and after he saw Xiao Rui, he immediately arranged for the crew to send the war horse onto the ship.

Because they were worried that the horses would be frightened, they deliberately blindfolded the horses, and the horses' hooves were also wrapped with cloth to avoid being frightened when stepping on the deck.

Soon, more than 6,000 people were on board, and the ships began to pull anchors!

"My lord, this time we will bypass the Bohai Sea and take Dandong directly, in order to avoid being discovered by the Qi Navy, the route will be slightly farther away, and it will take about five days!" The chief soldier introduced.

Xiao Rui nodded and said with a smile: "The official knows, let's start the boat!" ”

"Yes!" The chief soldier responded with a fist.

In this way, fifteen sea ships left the Dongying Wharf and headed in the direction of Qi State.

……

Dandong Mansion is the southeasternmost capital city of Qi State, adjacent to the Yellow River in the south, and to the east is the small country of natural poison. Because of the remote location of Dandong Province, there are not many troops stationed here, and the wharves along the coast are only local naval soldiers.

In the past few days, the sea has been quiet and quiet, so Xiao Rui and the soldiers did not feel too much turbulence, at this time they have approached the largest coastal wharf in Dandong Province, because there are a large number of horses on the sea boat, it is impossible to find a shore and go down directly, it is best to go ashore through the wharf.

Therefore, after Xiao Rui and Zhang Liang discussed, they directly asked Li Yuanfang, Dian Wei, and Yang Youji to lead five hundred iron dragoon soldiers to go ashore in a small boat, and approached the dock, and then dressed up as a bandit and entered the dock.

The people of Qi on the dock fled, and the navy that resisted was also slaughtered, and the dock was quickly cleaned up.

Subsequently, the sea ship docked, and other soldiers, auxiliaries and horses disembarked one after another, and finally set foot on the territory of Qi State.

The general soldier didn't know Xiao Rui's identity, but he also admired his bravery.

Since ancient times, crossing the sea to enter the hinterland of the enemy country is a very fast way, but it is no different from suicide, because without the support of reserve forces, entering the enemy's territory is blind.

"My lord, that subordinate has led the fleet back, I hope you can return triumphantly!" The chief soldier said respectfully.

Xiao Rui nodded and said with a smile: "Go back!" ”

Seeing the ship sail away from the dock, Xiao Rui looked at the Iron Dragoon soldiers, especially their eager battle intent, with the determination to kill the Quartet, and there was no worry about being alone at all. Xiao Rui didn't say much, as early as on the boat, Xiao Rui explained the intention of this trip, this group of soldiers had already thrown themselves to the ground of Xiao Rui's worship of the five bodies, His Royal Highness dared to enter the Qi country, and they would not have the slightest retreat!

Xiao Rui raised the Chixiao Sword and shouted, "Change the flag!" ”

In the team, several standard-bearers untied the banner of the Great Xia Iron Dragoon, and replaced it with the banner of the famous cavalry of the Qi State, the Snow Wolf Cavalry.

Xiao Rui and Zhang Liang entered the territory of Qi State, so they naturally had to disguise themselves as the heavy armored cavalry of Qi State. And not only that, Jia Xu ordered the subordinate workshop of the Ministry of Engineering to rush out the cloak of the snow wolf cavalry, and at this time it was also draped behind by the soldiers of the iron dragon cavalry.

Looking at the Iron Dragon Cavalry from a distance, if it becomes the Snow Wolf Cavalry of the Qi Kingdom, but it cannot be investigated carefully, after all, the Iron Dragon Cavalry is a horse lance and Mingguang armor, and the Snow Wolf Cavalry of the Qi Country is not this equipment. Even so, such a dress can make Xiao Rui swagger in the Qi Kingdom.

In addition to these, Jia Xu also provided a detailed topographical map of the Qi Kingdom and an introduction to each province, which was collected by His Majesty's secret agents today.

It can be said that since Xiao Rui left Kyoto for Caozhou, Jia Xu and Guo Jia began to hurry up to prepare for this operation. Since he decided to play this play, he naturally can't let His Highness be at a loss, and he must do all the auxiliary measures.

After everyone dressed up, Xiao Rui asked Zhang Liang, "Ovary, how should I go now?" ”

Zhang Liang has been analyzing the map of Qi in the past few days, and has already calculated the route of the march, so he said directly: "Your Highness, our goal is to give the Qi country a heavy punch, so as to build momentum and improve the morale of the army and the people of Great Xia!" So our goal is to go west, and along the way we will pass through Danxi Mansion, Yingkou, Jinzhou, Jianchang, Pingquan, Chengde, and go directly to Miyun! ”

"However, in such a long distance, it is difficult for our true identity to be disguised all the time, and it is bound to be revealed, once it is leaked, the troops stationed in various parts of the Qi country will jointly besiege it, so the battle is inevitable, and after the battle, our identity and plan will be revealed, and the army of Qi will be vigilant and fortified, and carry out encirclement and suppression. So when the time comes, we will adopt a detour strategy to the north or south according to our location, or even pretend to attack the country of Qi, as long as it can confuse the public, let us create an opportunity to go directly to Miyun! ”

"Now the army of the champion Hou is fighting with Qi and Yuan in Miyun, we have arrived in Miyun, sneak attack from behind, and then join forces with the champion Hou to attack the enemy in the north and south!"

"Of course, this is our initial goal, if there is a change along the way, we will make a change!"

……

Zhang Liang talked about it.

Xiao Rui nodded again and again after hearing this, and said, "Okay!" Then act according to the plan of the ovary, Yuan Fang gives the order, and the army sets off! ”

"Yes!" The commander next to Li Yuanfang immediately waved the military flag and gave orders.

Then, the scouts sped first, Li Yuanfang, Dian Wei and Yang Youji in front, Xiao Rui and Zhang Liang followed, the iron dragoons behind them followed closely, and then the auxiliary soldiers, more than 6,000 people left the dock and headed west.

Danjiang belongs to the remote border, the land is vast and sparsely populated, Xiao Rui and his party went west along the official road, and they also met many people of Qi on the way. Now that the State of Qi is at war with the State of Xia, it is too normal for troops to be mobilized, and Xiao Rui and his party are also pretending to be cavalry of the State of Qi, so the people are naturally not suspicious and have avoided it.

Xiao Rui did not kill when they passed through villages and towns, and at night, everyone was stationed in the wilderness, and the auxiliaries immediately prepared food and fed the horses.

Horses only eat grass when they march, which can not ensure nutrition at all, which will greatly affect the speed of the horses, so they must eat some concentrated feed. However, the auxiliaries only brought three days, after all, it was impossible to bring enough horses, which required supplies on the way.

In the evening of the next day, there were only a few dozen miles left from Yingkou.

Yingkou is also known as Gaizhou Wei, is a garrison in the Bohai Sea coast of Qi State, its scale is far smaller than Bincheng, only more than 10,000 soldiers are stationed, but there are more than 10 sea ships.

The coastline of the Qi State was very short, not even one-fifth of that of the Xia State, so he only needed to set up garrisons in a few major positions to ensure the safety of the coast.

The coastal line of Great Xia was too long and difficult to manage, and in addition, there were guards in various places, so once an enemy attacked by sea, it could quickly counterattack, so the Great Xia Kingdom did not form a large-scale navy.

After Xiao Rui and Zhang Liang discussed, they prepared to make a move against this stationed Qi army. First, more than 10,000 people can easily eat this army, and second, because of supplies, it is the fastest to grab the army's ready-made grain and grass, which saves a lot of trouble.

In this way, the five thousand iron dragoons continued to sleep in the wilderness overnight, and in the early morning of the next day, they were all assembled!

Before the attack, the scouts first went to investigate the situation of the enemy camp, and then the five thousand iron dragon knights removed the snow wolf flag and cloak, this camouflage can continue to be used, so put it away for the time being.

After the scouts investigated the situation, Zhang Liang immediately divided his troops into three steps.

Li Yuanfang led 2,000 people to attack from the west side, Dian Wei led 2,000 people to attack from the north side, and the south side was a dead end in the ocean.

Taking advantage of the bright weather, the Iron Dragoon approached the enemy camp.
