However, what Wu Jing didn't expect was that Li Siye's troops and horses were ambushed near this small river ditch!!

After Li Siye divided his troops, he led the army all the way to the area of Gaochun County, and last night Li Siye's army crossed Lishui at night.

Seeing that after the army crossed Lishui, Li Siye still had no intention of ambushing on the spot, so he still ordered the army to continue to move forward, and once asked Li Siye this question: "General, when I was on the north bank of Lishui before, the scouts found many places suitable for ambushes, but the generals did not choose which places on the grounds that those places were too close to Danyang City and the enemy would be alert. ”

"Now that our army has arrived in Lishui, this place is already dozens of miles away from Danyang City, and after the Danyang soldiers and horses arrive here, they will be exhausted and slack; The Lishui River is wide and the water is so fast that the enemy can only rely on the wooden bridge to cross the river in batches, and this place is the best place for our army to set up an ambush to attack the enemy halfway through, why did the general not choose this place to set up an ambush, but let the army continue to move forward? ”

Li Siye glanced at Jun Sima in surprise, smiled, and said, "You can ask this question, it can be regarded as a manufacturable material!" ”

"As you said, the Lishui River is wide and the water is fast, and the Danyang soldiers and horses can only cross the river in batches, which is the most suitable place for our army, but it is precisely because of this that I will not choose to set up an ambush here. Although the Danyang soldiers and horses marched to this point, although they would be exhausted and unprepared, Wu Jingwen and Wuquan, the Taishou of Danyang, was a cautious person, and after he arrived here, he would definitely order the scouts in the army to carefully explore the nearby terrain and search for ambushes. “

"The terrain here is precipitous, it is indeed a place for soldiers to set up ambushes, there is no shortage of Jiangdong army officers and soldiers who have been in battle for a long time, and the scouts in the army are even more elite soldiers in the army, they also know this point and will carefully explore the nearby terrain, if our army is ambushed here, it will definitely be searched out by the Jiangdong army scouts."

When Li Siye said this, he smiled slightly, turned around and pointed to the surging Lishui River, and said, "Imagine if you lead the army to cross the river here, will you carefully explore the terrain near the left?" ”

After listening to Li Siye's words, Jun Sima suddenly felt a sigh of relief, bowed down and bowed: "My subordinates have been taught, thank you for the general's teachings!" ”

Li Siye looked at the sky, and the sun was about to rise in about an hour or two, and said, "Order, let the brothers speed up, and find the ambush before dawn; Order the scouts to carefully explore the surroundings, and if they encounter passers-by, they will be brought back to the army, and those who do not obey will be killed, and they will not divulge the military information of our army!! ”

"No!"

"The general has an order, speed up and keep moving forward!!"

"The general has an order, speed up and keep moving forward!!"

"The general has an order, speed up and keep moving forward!!"

……

Although Li Siye will not disturb the people at will if he governs the army strictly, this does not mean that Li Siye will not kill people!

Now it is a troubled era of cannibalism, and the bloody wind and rain of the army are just idle, as the saying goes, Daoci is not in charge of the army, which general is not a cold-blooded person who treats human life as if he were idle?

Killing a few passers-by in order to hide the whereabouts of the army is just the norm in troubled times, and Li Siye ordered the scouts to bring passers-by back to the army first, which is already a slight act of benevolence!

Li Siye's army continued to move forward, and finally came to the front of a small river ditch, Li Siye looked at the water and the surrounding terrain, and said: "Stop advancing, let the generals come to discuss the matter!" ”

"The general has an order, stop advancing, and the generals will come to discuss !!"

"The general has an order, stop advancing, and the generals will come to discuss !!"

"The general has an order, stop advancing, and the generals will come to discuss !!"

……

The military discipline of the Tiger Ben Army was strict, and Li Siye gave an order, and all the generals and soldiers stopped advancing, and the generals and officers of the military Sima and above hurriedly came to Li Siye.

After Li Siye saw the arrival of the personnel, he said: "After the Danyang soldiers and horses pass through Lishui, they will definitely feel slack, although Wu Jing is cautious, but it is difficult to control the army under contempt, although this river is small, but it is enough to ambush, my army will set up an ambush here!" ”

When the soldiers heard, "Li Sima, you lead 300 soldiers to build a dam ten miles upstream of the river, but remember to leave a gap so that the water in the river cannot be cut off, and when you see the fire here, you will immediately dig the dam and release the water!" ”

"No, my subordinates are !! orders"

"Captain Wang, you lead five thousand elite armor to wait in the woods on the opposite bank first, and when our military order arrives, you will immediately lead your troops to move to the rice fields to set up an ambush!"

"No, my subordinates are !! orders"

"The rest of the soldiers and horses will follow me to find an ambush on the north bank, let's go and prepare, order the scouts to patrol the Lishui area, and when the enemy army is discovered, come and report to me immediately!"

"No, we'll take !! order"

The south bank of the river is arranged with infantry armor, and the five thousand soldiers and horses are distributed in the endless rice fields, which is enough to cover their whereabouts, and the Danyang soldiers and horses are from the north bank, with the situation of the Jiangdong army, I am afraid that they will not investigate the situation on the south bank in detail, so there should be no problem with the five thousand infantry armor.

However, Li Siye is a little embarrassed here, at this time there are still two thousand elite cavalry in his army, these elite cavalry are not as good as the infantry armor to cover their whereabouts, Danyang soldiers and horses come from the north bank, some too conspicuous places will definitely be explored by the Jiangdong army scouts, if the ambush is too far, and it is difficult to play the effect of a sudden attack, Li Siye has been looking for a long time, and has not found a suitable place.

Just when Li Siye was in a great embarrassment, he suddenly saw a dock fort appear in front of him, which covered an area of hundreds of zhang and was enough to accommodate five thousand soldiers and horses.

Li Siye was immediately overjoyed and ordered: "Zhao Chun, you lead three hundred iron horsemen, immediately go and surround the dock fort, and don't let anyone escape!! ”

Three hundred elite horsemen set out in unison, and in a moment the water surrounding the dock fort in front of them could not be leaked, such a big movement naturally could not hide the residents in the dock fort, and when Li Siye led the army to arrive at the dock fort, the wall of the dock fort was already full of villagers, Li Siye stepped forward and said: "I am the general Li Siye under the command of the rear general, and the person in charge stepped forward to answer!" ”

A middle-aged man hurriedly stepped forward a few steps and responded: "The villain has seen the general!" ”

Li Siye glanced at this person and said, "I was going to use your dock fort garrison to open the gate immediately, and the traces of my army must not be leaked, otherwise it will ......."

How can a mere dock fort resist the 5,000 army, Li Siye also said that they still have to hide their whereabouts, if they don't open the gate of the wall, then the consequences can be imagined!!

"No! Quickly open the gate of the village and welcome the army inside! ”
