After learning that the army in Weihai County had retreated, Liu Chen immediately summoned all the generals to the Chinese army's big tent to discuss matters.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have won this battle, the army of Weihai County has retreated, and most of our crisis has been resolved!" Liu Chen opened his mouth and said, the reason why it is said that most of it has been lifted is because there are still thousands of Dongying people in Chengshan Military Port.
As soon as these words came out, everyone who had already known the news had a smile on their faces, with an army of less than 10,000 people against more than 50,000 enemies, they had already been ready to kill, but who would have thought that this battle would be won, annihilating 4,000 Dongying people, defeating 5,000 vanguard troops and 2,000 elite cavalry in Weihai County, this is definitely a big victory.
Seeing everyone's happy looks in their eyes, Liu Chen continued: "Everyone, the battle in Qishan is over so far, but there are still thousands of Dongying people in our base camp, Chengshan Military Port, so I hope you don't get too carried away, you should still fight for us!" ”
When everyone heard this, their expressions were solemn, and they clasped their fists and said in unison to Liu Chen: "Obey the general's orders!" ”
Nodding, Liu Chen said: "The war here is over, but it is only temporary, no one knows when the army of Weihai County will come again, so I will leave two thousand soldiers here, build fortifications here, and garrison here." ”
Looking around at everyone, Liu Chen continued: "Meng Yi, Li Yun! ”
"The subordinates are here!" Meng Yi and Li Yun stood up at the same time, stepped forward, and responded with fists clenched.
"I will select 1,500 soldiers from your two army, and I will give you 100 heavy infantry, 100 cavalry, and 300 crossbowmen, and you will be the northern wall of our army, and you will defend it here, do you have any objection?" Liu Chen ordered directly.
"Subordinates take orders!" Meng Yi and Li Yun said at the same time.
Seeing that the two agreed, Liu Chen continued: "After this battle, I will re-plan the Han army, reformulate the establishment for the entire Han army, and the officers of the unified army will also have corresponding ranks, and I will arrange them later, now you two are here, Meng Yi is the main one, Li Yun is the deputy, and the army that stays here, I will give you a title, the name Chang Jie, and when the Han army recruits new recruits in the future, I will form Chang Jie into a battalion of 5,000 people, and you are also the commander of the army!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Meng Yi and Li Yun were overjoyed, and the faces of the other people also showed a look of envy, because this was the first army of the Han Army to have a number, or was it composed of a battalion, how could this not make everyone envious?
"We will not disappoint the general!" At this moment, Meng Yi and Li Yun directly knelt down on one knee and said.
Let the two of them get up and sit down again, Liu Chen said: "Let the army get ready, tomorrow morning, except for the two thousand soldiers who stayed here, the whole army will return to Chengshan Military Port, after this war, I believe that there will be no war for at least a few months or even half a year, so in the next few days, you need to train more!" ”
"I'll take my orders!" All the generals stood up and answered loudly.
Then Liu Chen made a little arrangement, and the entire Han army camp began to get busy, all the generals performed their duties, they had to be ready, and then return to Chengshan Military Port.
。。。。。。
Just when Liu Chen was about to return to Chengshan Military Port with the army, the battle of Chengshan Military Port had lasted for six days, in order to block the mouth of the Hu, Chen Ying, the commander of the Han Army's naval division, gave up eight warships and blocked them all at the mouth of the Hukou.
In a bloody battle for six consecutive days, the casualties of the Han army's sailors were very large, three thousand sailors, more than half of the casualties, but despite this, none of the soldiers took a step back, because they couldn't retreat, behind them was the Chengshan military village, and their relatives lived here, so even if they died, they couldn't let the Dongying people attack in.
The losses of the Han army's naval division were huge, and the results achieved were also amazing, blocking the Dongying people for six days, and did not let the Dongying people attack the Chengshan Military Port, which was a victory, and also killed and injured no less than 2,000 Dongying people, which made the Dongying people who attacked the Chengshan Military Port very annoyed, the 6,000 army was blocked in the sea outside the mouth of the pot, and could not be opened, and the six days not only did not succeed, but also lost more than 2,000 people, which was a heavy blow to the morale of the Dongying army.
"Commander, Zhou Xiong, the commander of the original Yaxi County City Guard, came to support with a thousand soldiers on the order of the general, and now they are already on the shore, ready to use the red horse boat as a tool, and come to us!" On a warship less than 100 meters away from the mouth of the pot, Chen Ying's face was full of exhaustion, standing at the bow of the ship, the deputy general Sima Xin walked in and said to Chen Ying.
Hearing this, Chen Ying's tired face showed a smile and said: "It seems that the battle situation in the direction of Qishan is favorable to our army, otherwise the general would not have sent a thousand soldiers to help, and it is good to have a fresh army to join, but fighting on the water is different from on land, let Zhou Xiongtong lead the line and send four hundred people over, our current warship can't accommodate so many people, when they arrive, let them get used to it, and then put into battle!" ”
"No!" Sima Xin responded, and then immediately went to prepare.
After Sima Xin left, Chen Ying turned his attention to the mouth of the pot again, where there were eight warships of the Han army, as well as four warships of Dongying, a total of twelve warships were intertwined, and the soldiers on both sides fought fiercely on such a battlefield.
At the forefront of the fight was Ding Fu's deputy general Xiahou Ying, who led five hundred sailors to fight here with hundreds of Dongying people, although the number of people fighting on both sides was small, but the degree of tragedy was unimaginable.
"Drink!" Xiahou Ying's spear swept away all the Dongying soldiers on a standing ship where he was, and then shouted loudly: "Tang Bin, are you dead?" Come over to me if you're not dead! ”
A young soldier covered in blood ran over, his face was already stained with blood, and he couldn't see the true face of this person at all, so he said in a somewhat tired tone: "My lord, Tang Bin is here!" ”
"Go, let's see how many people we have, if the number is less than two hundred, immediately go to Commander Chen Ying, and ask him to send a few hundred more people to support, his grandmother's is all one head and two arms, I still don't believe it, we can't fight Dongying people!" Xiahou Ying said a little angrily.
"Yes!" Tang Bin immediately went to understand the battle situation.
Looking at the many soldiers who were still fighting on other warships, Xiahou Ying, gritted his teeth, took more than a dozen personal soldiers around him, boarded another warship, and started a new round of fighting, whether it was the Han army or the Dongying people, there were only hundreds of people here, but whenever the soldiers on either side were sharply reduced, new soldiers would join them, so coming and going, fighting was the courage of both sides!
