PS. Present the May Day update, don't hurry up to play after reading, remember to vote for the month first. From now on, you can enjoy double monthly passes for the 515 Fan Festival, and you can also take a look at other activities with red envelopes!

The people in the prince's camp took on all the security work of the prince's camp, even so, it didn't take more than 2,500 people, after returning to the palace, the prince didn't really go to sleep, but called Lu Fangfei, Li Zongzhi, Fan Xun, Zhu Chongwen, Zhao Yiyan, Ma Dai, Liu Xun, Dong Yuan, and Fan Yunqi, who was in charge of equestrianism, to have a meeting.

This meeting is very important, now that they are on the front line, none of them have really killed anyone, let alone killed, and those young men may not have killed even a chicken. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a basic strategy for acting, otherwise even the prince himself does not know where to start.

Zhao Tianci's face was serious, and the extremely stylish red robe was still worn on his body, making him look like a god.

"When we get to the front, everyone comes to think about what we should do." The prince didn't talk nonsense, he came up and went straight to the point.

"Prince, it depends on what you want to do." Lu Fangfei said first. The others nodded.

Zhao Tianci said without thinking, "My purpose is very simple, while training the troops, if I can assist General Han in eliminating the invading Jin soldiers, then it will be the best of both worlds." ”

Li Zongzhi said, "Prince, our previous drills were all on land, and we are not familiar with water combat, although most of our people live in the southern water system, we don't have to worry too much about not being able to get on the boat, it's just ...... If you want to train as a soldier, you must first have a boat, and you also need an instructor who is proficient in water warfare. ”

"How many more ships do we have brought?" Zhao Tianci asked.

Lu Fangfei said, "The people who came with us are troop carriers. In the end, it's just a little bigger than an ordinary civilian boat, and I'm afraid it won't work if it is used for water battles. ”

Fan Xun said, "That's right! I have carefully observed General Han's warship, and his hull is reinforced, tall, and has sails without slurry. The sails also have two more sides than ordinary boats, and the river breeze blows, so the speed of such a boat in the water is very fast. ”

Zhao Yiyan said, "Xiao Xun is right, the large body does have an advantage, but he has a fatal shortcoming, that is, there must be wind, if there is no wind, there is no way for the galleon to move." ”

Everyone nodded.

"Is there a time when there is no wind on the river?" Zhao Tianci asked.

"Very little!" Maldai said. "When we were in Lin'an Mansion, there was wind and rain almost every day, which is the characteristic of being close to the Haihe River."

Dong Yuan groaned a little and said, "It's not for nothing that there is no wind on the river, my father encountered it once when he was on the river, it was the merchant ship of the giant merchant Lin Lao Shi's family, because there was no wind to stop in the heart of the river, he couldn't move, and spent a lot of money to invite many civilian ships to come." It was dragged to the shore by manpower. ”

Zhao Tianci nodded, "Hmm." This is very important, and I must remind General Han tomorrow that we can't decide the outcome by God's mood when we lead our troops to fight. ”

Liu Xun shook his head, "I'm afraid this General Han doesn't think very much of our group, and if you ask him this suggestion just now, I'm afraid it won't be useful." ”

Zhu Chongwen also said. "I've already seen that he's obviously trying to fool us."

"It has to be foolproof, whether he's happy or not, I have to say." Zhao Tianci said firmly.

Lu Fangfei's eyes rolled, "Prince." If you want to train the army, you have to hurry up, according to the battle report, the Jin soldiers have been dangling on the Yangtze River for a long time, and I heard that they have passed Chizhou. ”

"Where is Chizhou?" Zhao Tianci asked, and then frowned, "This is the biggest problem, we are not familiar with the terrain. Who among us is proficient in this way? ”

Fan Xunqi said, "Prince, didn't General Han show us his map?" ”

Zhao Tianci shook his head, "That map won't work." The above marks are too rough, the river surface water system is complex, how can there only be those few main roads? I guess the Jin people certainly don't have big boats in their hands to go through the main waterways, they can go somewhere else, so we have to know if there are any other waterways that can pass through smaller boats, such as fishing boats, apart from a few major water systems. ”

Lu Fangfei smiled and took out an old sheepskin from her arms and handed it to Zhao Tianci, "Prince, can you see if this is okay?" ”

Zhao Tianci took it and opened it, and was immediately overjoyed, this is also a map, but the water systems marked on it are mainly branch roads, and those large water systems only have graphics and no markers, "Sister Fei, where did you get it from?" That's great! ”

Lu Fangfei proudly exchanged a look with Li Zongzhi and the others, "Since you know that you are going to come here, of course you have to prepare early." We definitely won't be able to get the military map, this map was left to him by a friend of my father's former friends, and General Li made some additions to it, and the new markers you see are that I thought that if the map in General Han's hand could be used, we wouldn't take it out. ”

Zhao Tianci glanced at a few people gratefully, "You all thought of me in front of me." He pointed to the sinuous lines above and said, "Come and have a look." ”

Everyone came over, Zhao Tianci said, "General Li is really extraordinary, extremely thoughtful, he has marked the possible direction of the Jin people for us, the purpose of the Jin soldiers is to go north to Jiankang Mansion, cross the Yangtze River waterway and return north, if you take the Yangtze River waterway, you must pass through Zhenjiang in the middle, and you will enter the pocket arranged by General Han in advance." But......" he pointed to the other line below, "this is the Qinhuai River, if Jin Bing does not take the main road of the Yangtze River and detours to the Qinhuai River, it will go directly to the water surface of the Yangtze River on the west side of Jiankang Mansion, which is equivalent to jumping out of General Han's pocket." ”

Li Zongzhi said, "I asked my father, and he said that this is not very likely. He pointed to the junction of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the Qinhuai River, "This place is called the Laoguankou Ancient River, the water surface is very narrow, after years of siltation, not only can the big boats not go, even the slightly larger fishing boats can't pass." ”

"How long is this paragraph?" Zhao Tianci asked.

Li Zongzhi thought for a while, "Listening to my father, it seems to be twenty or thirty miles. ”

Zhao Tianci frowned, "If 100,000 people dig day and night, how long will it take to open up this waterway?" ”

Li Zongzhi was stunned for a moment. Looking at Ma Dai, Liu Xun and the others, Ma Dai thought for a while and said, "If there are really so many people digging at the same time or in turn, I'm afraid it won't take three hours, right?" ”

Zhao Tianci didn't make a sound, and Fan Yunqi, who had not spoken, opened his mouth and said, "Prince." Even if the Jin people bypassed General Han's encirclement through the Qinhuai River and reached the Yangtze River west of Jiankang Mansion, it was still within the control of the Zhenjiang Naval Army, and he still couldn't go. ”

Zhao Tianci nodded, "If this is the case, we can only rely on General Han's big ship." But...... I always felt that his big ships were not very reliable. ”

And all the people looked at him, not knowing what he meant.

In fact, the prince himself can't say clearly, just because his mind is full of modern steel warships, and the wooden hull is used for warships. He had never seen it before, and he was not at all optimistic about such a warship, not to mention anything else, as long as there was a fire, everything would be over.

But he couldn't say that.

"Training!" Zhao Tianci didn't think about these problems that he couldn't solve, took a deep breath and said, "Find a sailor coach." ”

Lu Fangfei looked at him with a smile, "I think it's good to look for your sister Hongyu." She must be accustomed to water, and if this battle is fought. Although she is Mrs. Anguo, she can't follow her man to the battlefield together, right? ”

The crowd turned their heads away, but they didn't hear it. Zhao Tianci's face turned red, glared at Lu Fangfei and said, "Okay, then it's up to you to invite." ”

Lu Fangfei shook her head. "She doesn't know who I am, so she won't be invited, and the prince must come out in person for this matter."

"Good!" Zhao Tianci nodded, "Just go!" In fact, he was very resistant to seeing this Mrs. Anguo. He always felt awkward, and he didn't even dare to look at her more.

"Yun Qi, when the time comes, I will ask General Han again, if there are any war horses in his naval army, borrow them from us to use, the horses that have run on the battlefield are definitely different from the war horses borrowed in our camp."

"That's great!" Fan Yunqi said happily. His riding training has just paid off, and if he delays it halfway, I'm afraid he will lose all his efforts.

"Prince, will Jin Bing have a war horse?" Fan Yunqi suddenly asked.

"Well...... A must have! Zhao Tianci said affirmatively after a little thought. The Jin people have always been good at cavalry, how can there be no horses, it is not possible to make these 100,000 people, 80,000 are cavalry.

Fan Yunqi's eyes flashed, "Prince, then we ......"

"As long as you kid has the ability, as much as you get!" Zhao Tianci saw fiery greed in his gaze.

"Prince Xie!" Fan Yunqi exclaimed excitedly.

After discussing with everyone, Zhao Tianci was really a little tired, the tent he was in also had two adjacent compartments, one of which was where he slept, and the other was for Luo Yunfei.

Since arriving at the mouth of Zhenjiang, Luo Yunfei changed into men's clothes, mixed with the soldiers and went ashore, until he entered the line and came to the prince's tent alone.

Zhao Tianci went straight into the innermost compartment, where Luo Yunfei was sitting in a daze. "Sister Yun, did you hear what we just said?"

Luo Yunfei is still dressed in men's clothes, looking fairy and elegant. She nodded, "I hear you." She smiled, "I can't really treat you like children." ”

Zhao Tianci sat beside her beautifully, "Sister Yun, do you think this battle is easy to fight?" ”

Luo Yunfei's eyes were a little confused, "If it is easy to fight, it is difficult to say that it is not easy to fight." ”

Zhao Tianci didn't understand, his eyes widened and looked at her, Luo Yunfei touched his head and said, "Tianci, the golden soldiers are good at riding and shooting in the field, if General Han can really trap them on the water and can't go ashore, this battle can be won no matter how they fight." But once they are allowed to go ashore, it will be difficult to say. ”

Zhao Tianci suddenly remembered Fan Yunqi's longing gaze, and said with a smile, "If there are no war horses, what will they do?" ”

Luo Yunfei said, "When the Golden Vulture went south, the members of my Holy Sect fought with him, and on the war horse, the army of the imperial court was rarely his opponent, if he dismounted, it would be a completely different matter." ”

"Then I'll keep him on the horse!" Zhao Tianci pursed his lips and said.

"What's your idea?" Luo Yunfei asked with a smile.

"Not anymore." Zhao Tianci shook his head, "Let's talk about it then, I'm sleepy, let's sleep for a while." As he spoke, he moved his body to the side, tilted his head and lay directly on Luo Yunfei's lap, closing his eyes and snoring evenly after a while.

Luo Yunfei patted his face with a smile, and when he saw that he didn't react, he sighed and let him go.
