Because the Han army is a mixture of foot and horse, the marching speed is not too fast, which is also Liu Yin's deliberate way of advancing step by step, after all, deep into the land of Liaodong, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, in case of risky breakthrough, in the ambush of the Goguryeo people, it is more than worth the loss.

As early as when the Han army arrived at Yiwulu Mountain, Liu Yin had already sent a large number of scouts to the east of the Liao River to explore Xiangping and the surrounding intelligence to grasp the latest movements of the Goguryeo people.

The soldiers and horses did not move, and the scouts went first, which has become a prerequisite for Liu Yin's march to fight, and it is also a magic weapon for Liu Yin to defeat the enemy for many years. The scouts of the general army often marched with a large army, and could only reconnoiter intelligence within a radius of fifty miles.

But Liu Yin is different, before he acts, he often has carried out penetrant reconnaissance on the target, even if the target is thousands of miles away, he can really know himself and the enemy.

Before Liu Yin set out on the expedition, Ah Jian had already led the team to infiltrate Liaodong, and when Liu Yin's army reached the west bank of the Liao River, Ah Jian had already sent someone to hand back detailed information.

In terms of reconnaissance, no one can have a more sensitive sense of smell than Ah Jian, he infiltrated Xiangping City, and all the movements of the Goguryeo people were clear, as for the military action taken by Goguryeo to Shuangliu Ferry, it was impossible to hide Ah Jian's eyes, just when Goguryeo arrived at Shuangliudu, Ah Jian's information had also been handed to Liu Yin's hands.

"Half-crossed?" When Liu Yin saw the information, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly, saying that the Hu people fought bravely and lacked resourcefulness, but now they still want to play this kind of high-tech strategy, isn't it their brains?

Only when the timing is well grasped can we obtain the greatest benefits, otherwise we will not be able to draw a tiger into an anti-dog, and in the end we will lift a stone and drop it on our own feet.

More importantly, if you want to play this kind of strategy, you must build it without the opponent's knowledge, just imagine, the opponent already knows that you are going to use this method, he has to take precautions in advance, how can such a strategy be successful?

It stands to reason that the Goguryeo people have already set up an ambush in Shuangliudu, and Liu Yin only needs to bypass Shuangliudu to make the Goguryeo people's plan abort. However, Liu Yin had another idea, since the Goguryeo people wanted to play the trick of half-crossing, he might as well plan and put on a good show for them to see.

On the one hand, Liu Yin ordered the army to act as if he was not aware of it at all and continued to march towards Shuangliudu, and on the other hand, he secretly ordered Luo Shang to lead the tiger cavalry army to secretly cross the Liao River from the Xuansu section of the upper reaches of the Liao River, and then detour back to Shuangliudu from the flank and rear flanks to attack the Goguryeo army from behind.

After arriving at Shuangliudu, the Han army did not rush to cross the river, but set up camp on the west bank of the Liao River, prepared boats and rafts, and was ready to cross the river at any time.

The Goguryeo and Xianbei people lurking on the other side of the river waited for a long time, but they did not see the Han army crossing the river. ”

Murong Diao personally inspected the riverside and believed that the Han army's refusal to cross the river was not due to other plans but to the fact that they were preparing boats and rafts to cross the river, and it seemed that Liu Yin was preparing enough boats and rafts before preparing to cross the river.

The Han army did not cross the river in time, which obviously had a certain impact on Murong Diao's plan to attack halfway, in Murong Diao's plan, the Han army's river crossing operation would be delayed for a long time, after all, the number of Han troops who crossed the river each time was not too much, and the Goguryeo army had time to calmly launch an attack and annihilate the Han army that crossed the river in advance.

But if the Han army is fully prepared and can gather enough ferries and rafts, then they can carry a lot of people to cross the river at one time, and the frequency of crossing the river will be greatly increased, and it will be more difficult for the Goguryeo army to encircle and annihilate the Han army that has crossed the river, because the Han army can cross a lot of reinforcements at any time, if the Goguryeo army cannot annihilate the beachhead troops of the Han army as soon as possible, then the Han army that will come up like a tide will inevitably involve the Goguryeo army in the melee, and the victory or defeat will be unpredictable.

But now Murong Diao is also helpless, if the Han army does not come to cross the river, they have no choice, they can't kill the Liao River at this time, kill the Han army without leaving a piece of armor, right?

"Let's wait and see, after the Han people have gathered enough ferry rafts, they will definitely come to cross the river." Murong Diao could only say helplessly, after preparing for such a long time, he didn't want to waste his efforts.

The preparation of the Han army to cross the river is quite fast, after all, there are large pieces of primitive forest wood here, there is no shortage of wood at all, it is too late to build a ship, but to build some simple rafts, it is very easy, Liu Yin sent troops to cut down wood and build rafts, in just a few days, the entire river on the west bank of the Liao River has gathered countless rafts, densely packed, looking from afar, almost half of the river is blocked.

Since the opponent wants to carry out the means of half-crossing attack on the opposite bank, then the most effective means of confrontation is to speed up the speed of crossing the river and transport the army to the opposite bank in the shortest possible time, so that the Han army that has seized the beachhead can continuously march to the opposite bank, and even if the enemy attacks, the Han army can reverse the disadvantage by constantly replenishing its forces.

After waiting for a few days, Suodu lost confidence a little, but now there are two ways in front of them, the first way is to simply give up the ambush and directly block the east bank to prevent the Han army from landing on the shore, and the second way is to withdraw the army immediately, will abandon the defense of the Liao River, and directly retreat to Xiangping City.

To be honest, Suodu still prefers the first option, anyway, if the ambush of the Han army fails, it is better to simply block the east bank of the Liao River and block the landing of the Han army.

Just as Suodu was about to move, the Han army stopped building rafts and began to cross the river on a large scale to the east bank of the Liao River.

Murong Diao immediately became excited, after all, the Han army began to cross the river, and their side may also act according to the original plan, Suo Du also saw this situation, and immediately ordered to keep the original plan unchanged, and only wait for the Han army to cross a part of the men and horses before launching an attack.

On the river, the Han army marched on a raft and rushed straight towards the east bank of the Liao River.
