According to Lee's original idea, they should not break out with the strongest strength after engaging the Baekje army, but stalemate with the enemy army for a period of time, and then defeat the enemy army, so as to give the enemy army the illusion that the opponent is only slightly stronger than them.

In this way, the enemy army would not immediately attract high attention, and thus treat them as a relatively elite Silla army, while the Huainan army would have the opportunity to continue to pretend to be pigs and eat tigers.

In this way, Lee Seung-ding felt that they might have a chance to gradually wipe out the Baekje army in Connecticut and take full control of the area.

That's why Li Chengding ordered all his troops not to fight too hard before the battle, so as not to frighten the enemy.

Who knew that the enemy army was so ineffective, the Huainan army did not exert much strength at all, but only shot two rounds of bows and arrows, and the Baekje people completely collapsed, which was really beyond the expectations of Li Chengding and others.

Sima Fu and the others even wondered if the enemy army was using any tricks, but everyone's observation of the enemy army and the news found by the scouts showed that the enemy army should have no strategy, but was really defeated.

"It's not that our army is too strong, it's that the enemy army is too ineffective!" Thinking that his plan to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger may have failed, Li Chengding couldn't help but sigh.

Of course, the enemy army was so ineffective but it also saved them a lot of trouble, and since this enemy army was so weak, what about the other Baekje troops? If they are all so weak, even if the enemy army is numerous, then why be afraid?

"Let's start the pursuit, and we can destroy as many enemy troops as we can!" The victory was easily won, but Li Chengding had little interest and gave orders in an extremely flat tone.

The victory he envisioned should have been a victory against a strong enemy, after all, the value of a good general is reflected in the ability to fight and win against a strong enemy.

For example, in Yang Wu's first battle that year, he led a thousand people to defeat the enemy army when he faced the night attack of more than 3,000 enemy troops, which is why he became famous in one battle.

But Li Chengding's victory was so easy, which naturally made him feel a little dissatisfied.

"I hope the other Baekje armies aren't so weak!"

Lee Seung-ding looked unhappy, but Park Young-hui, who was opposite, was full of horror.

"This could never be a Silla person! No way! The Silla people can't be so strong! ”

Park Young-hui said three "impossible" in a row, which is enough to explain the fear in his heart.

In fact, in Li Chengding's view, the Huainan Army has not yet used all its strength, but only shot two rounds of arrow rain; But in the eyes of Park Young-hui, those two rounds of arrow rain were so terrible and shocking.

First of all, the speed at which these two rounds of arrows were fired was less than ten breaths between them, and such a fast speed of drawing a bow and shooting arrows was by no means something that an untrained Silla soldier could do.

The second point is the accuracy of the rain of arrows fired by the enemy crossbowmen, you must know that the Baekje army had just entered the range of the enemy's bow and arrow, and there was still some distance from the enemy. At such a distance, the enemy army was able to guarantee such a high hit rate, which was also not possible for the Silla army, even the most elite Baekje army.

His soldiers have been fighting with the Silla people all year round, so they naturally know the strength of the Silla people, and even more so they know their own strength, so he will judge that the enemy army he encounters in front of him is by no means comparable to the Silla people!

The sudden collapse of the Baekje army was, on the one hand, due to the sudden and swift blows; On the other hand, because their own morale is not high, if they were replaced by the army of the Central Plains under the same conditions, they would never collapse so easily.

Of course, regardless of the specific causes, the collapse of the Baekje army is a fact.

Although Park Young-hui still has a reserve of 1,000 people in his hands, he also knows that even if he throws the reserves into the battlefield at such a time, it is impossible to turn the tide of the battle, so it is the most correct choice to flee quickly.

"Retreat, retreat immediately!" Park Young-hui, whose face was a little pale, ordered again and again.

However, the training level of the Baekje army was too low, and the soldiers were more old and weak, so that they not only performed worse than the Huainan army in battle, but also could not even escape compared to the Huainan army.

As a result, the number of Baekje troops who were able to escape in the end was not large, and Park Young-hui came from a large family after all, and although his men did not ride horses, he himself had a horse, so he escaped.

After returning to Kangju City, Park Young-hui immediately said to his immediate superior: "General, the enemy army that landed is definitely not the Silla, although they have few troops, their strength is very strong, and our army is not an opponent at all. Please also ask the general to send a large army to encircle and suppress! ”

"Are you saying that it wasn't the Silla people who came across the sea? Could it be that the army of the Thai feudal kingdom is not successful? ”

The army of the Taephong kingdom is still relatively strong, at least compared to their Baekje army; Moreover, the sailors of the Taefeng Kingdom often went south to attack Baekje, but no one from the Taefeng Kingdom had dared to attack a heavily defended place like Kangju.

"No, it will never be the army of the Taifeng Kingdom, they are at most a little stronger than us, but it is impossible to be so strong." Park Young-hui explained that the enemy had fired two rounds of arrows in a short period of time and maintained an extremely high hit rate, which attracted the attention of the other party.

This Connecticut defender is the nephew of Zhen Xuan, the lord of Baekje, named Zhen Gaiqing, and has a brave temperament, so he was appointed as the defender of such an important city as Connecticut.

After listening to Park Yinghui's words, Zhen Gaiqing's expression became solemn.

Like Baekje, Taebong was established in the process of rebelling against Silla's corrupt rule, and both sides were actually about the same strength.

As Park Young-hui said, it is impossible for the Baekje army to do it; Since they can't do it, then the army of the Thai feudal kingdom should not be able to do it either.

It's not a Silla person, and it's also not a person from the Tae-feudal country, so the origin of this enemy army in front of you is a little strange.

It is incomprehensible that in addition to the armies of the two rival countries of Silla and Taephon, a new army suddenly appeared in the vicinity.

"Could it be that the Japanese have landed again?" Zhen Gaiqing thought in his heart.

As early as the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, the Japanese sent troops to the peninsula in an attempt to help the destroyed Baekje to restore the country, but were defeated by the Tang army in the Battle of the Baekchun River.

Since then, the Wa Kingdom's ambitions for the Silla Peninsula have been suppressed, and since then, they have often sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty to actively learn from the advanced culture and technology of the Tang Dynasty.

Now that more than 200 years have passed since the First Battle of Baekchunjiang, both the Tang Dynasty and Silla have declined, can it be said that this time is the prelude to the Japanese people sending troops to the peninsula again?

As for the possibility that the other party was the Tang army, he didn't think about it, after all, the Tang Dynasty was too far away from here, not to mention the ocean, they were still in civil strife, and they should not have the strength to interfere in their war with Silla.

Of course, no matter what the other side is, one thing can be confirmed, that is, although the enemy army is strong, they do not have many troops!

Zhen Gaiqing was in charge of guarding Kangzhou, but a strong army suddenly appeared in the jurisdiction, and now that he has fought a battle and formed a grudge, he can only continue to fight.

He believed that the army in his hands might not be as strong as the other party, but under the absolute superiority of troops, it was not difficult to defeat the other party, and he was just underestimating the enemy before.

Three days later, Zhen Gaiqing, who was well prepared, gathered an army of 15,000 people, preparing to encircle and suppress the enemy army that suddenly appeared.

On the other side, after the Huainan Army defeated Park Young-hui's forward army, whether to move elsewhere or stay to fight with the main force of the Baekje Army made Lee Seung-ding and others hesitate for a long time.

As predicted, after an easy victory, the Huainan army's demoralization caused by the storm was immediately improved, and it was replenished with sufficient supplies through capture, so it can be said that it was easy to fight or retreat in the future.

However, since the war with the Baekjes has begun, and the enemy army seems to be weaker than he thought, it seems that it is better to stay and win a greater victory.

And this time, not only young generals such as Lee Seung-ding and He Jingzhu supported this, but even the veterans who have always been stable such as Chengji were moved.

In this way, staying and fighting the Baekje people again became their final choice.

Of course, because the strategy of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger failed, then it can be expected that if the enemy army comes again, it will definitely have a large number of troops, and if it is directly engaged with it, even if it wins, it is afraid that it will lose a lot, so it must be a surprise victory.

And this time, the "strange" prepared by Li Chengding is to rely on the trump card of the Huainan Army: flowering bombs.

Since they were going to come to a foreign land to show their might, Yang Wu would naturally equip Li Chengding with the best weapons, including a lot of flowering bombs that could be thrown by manpower.

Unfortunately, due to the storm, many flowering bombs were soaked by the seawater that poured into the ship during the storm, but there were not many that could be used, so they had to be used at critical times.
