"Ten miles west of Liyang City, compared to other places, the water potential here is the most relieved, if the enemy wants to attack, he will definitely use this place as a benchmark."

Everyone was in the middle of Liyang County, and Li Jing, who had been here for the longest time, first explained.

"But our army is different, our army has strong combat power on the water, and it doesn't have to be limited to here, such as here."

As he spoke, Li Jing pointed to another place on the map.

"Although the water here is relatively turbulent, it is precisely because of this that there are not many enemy handles on the opposite side, which can be used as a breakthrough to sneak attack the enemy army."

Li Yang nodded, and then asked, "How is the enemy's movement?" ”

"It is observed that the enemy army on the opposite side has nearly two million troops, and it is reported that Zhao Junrui's main force, the black and gold armored cavalry, is also coming, so although Zhao Junrui's movements have not been detected, it must be about the same in the future."

Li Yang nodded again, and then waved his hand to signal Li Jing to sit down.

"Ofan, as a combat strategist, do you have anything to state this time."

Zhang Liang stood up when he heard this, and said to Li Yang: "Big brother is no longer defending this battle, when I came with my eldest brother, I received a secret report from Moyi Building, Zhao Junrui sent someone to contact Liu Biao, Cao Cao and others, I am afraid that our side has started a war, and they will raise troops to attack." ”

Li Yang had already been mentally prepared for this matter, so when he heard Zhang Liang say, he was not too excited, and said in a calm tone: "I have already informed the fourth brother and Yun Chang before, so there must not be too many problems. ”

"Big brother, although this is the case, but if it drags on for too long, I'm afraid it will also have an impact, so we need to seize the time here and try our best to attack."

Li Yang agreed with Zhang Liang's thoughts, pondered for a while, and said: "The enemy's strength is higher than ours, and he is still fighting across the river, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to us, even if he can surprise from another place according to what the pharmacist said, but if he fails to strike a blow, I am afraid that there will be no such opportunity." ”

Zhang Liang smiled, "I know what the eldest brother is worried about, but the eldest brother is afraid that he has forgotten, we still have a strange army." ”

"Odd soldiers? You're talking about the town naval regiment? Li Yang replied with some puzzlement.

Zhang Liang shook his head, "Big brother forgot, there is still a legion unit in Xuzhou." ”

"Xuzhou?" Li Yang suddenly realized, "What the ovary said is the Wolf Tooth Army!" yes, how did I forget about the Wolf Tooth Legion. ”

The Wolf Tooth Legion, the troops are all selected and trained from Xuzhou, and the generals are Gai Hao's subordinates, since Xuzhou was handed over to Gai Hao, Li Yang rarely asked, and over time, the Wolf Tooth Legion actually faded in Li Yang's mind.

"That's right, it's the Wolf Tooth Legion!" Zhang Liang said with a smile, "The Wolf Tooth Legion is stationed in Xuzhou, and now in the big war, it can be used as a surprise soldier to quietly transport it to the other side with the town navy." ”

"But there is a problem, the Wolf Tooth Legion has not been in Xuzhou for a day or two, it is impossible for Zhao Junrui not to defend, and I am afraid that there are many sentries who are watching the movements of the Wolf Tooth Legion! How can you hide it? ”

Zhao Yun, who had been listening on the side, asked the doubts in his heart.

"You don't have to hide it at all! Just make a big splash. ”

"Ovary, you mean, a direct and blatant cross-river attack? Although Zhao Junrui's main force is here, there are a lot of left-behind troops, so the Wolf Tooth Legion is afraid that it will not be effective. ”

"The eldest brother has already said that if the enemy's main force is here, there are not many troops left behind, but our attack range is much larger.

The Wolf Tooth Legion can take the warship of the Zhenhai Regiment, travel in the sea, and land at any time, big brother, our naval army is invincible at present.

Due to the limitation of food and grass, the Wolf Tooth Legion will definitely not be able to stay in Yangzhou anymore, but it is enough as a harassment and surprise attack, as long as the mission is completed and returns to the ship of the town naval regiment, it can be resupplied again and prepare for the next raid. ”

"That's right!" Li Yang slapped the table, "Yangzhou is so big in the sea, the Wolf Tooth Legion can land at any time, and Zhao Junrui's defenders must not take care of it all." ”

"That's not enough!" Zhang Liang said with a little deliberation: "Big brother, don't forget Heshen and those families. ”

Li Yang nodded and smiled with satisfaction: "Sure enough, with the second brother here, my heart can be completely put down, haha; I will write to Gai Hao and Gan Ning immediately to inform them that they will implement the second brother's plan according to the second brother's plan, and the second brother will need to worry about this matter. ”

"Big brother, don't worry!" Zhang Liang nodded in response.

Then, Li Yang turned his head to look at everyone with a serious expression.

"This battle is very important to me, and we must not take it lightly."

"Don't worry, my lord, we will serve the dead." The crowd stood up and answered in unison.

Subsequently, Li Yang detailed the tasks and sent them to each corps one by one, and the combat meeting ended.

After the meeting, the commanders returned to their respective regiments.

Of course, the battle did not start directly, because Tianyun's naval army had not yet arrived.

This does not refer to super warships such as Molong of the Zhenhai Regiment, but to medium- and low-level boats that are used to carry people across the river.

The big boat has a deep draft, it is impossible to get too close to the shore, and the enemy cannot give you time to set up a board for you to cross the river, so you mainly have to rely on medium and low-level boats to cross the river.

This type of small boat is available in the town naval regiment, but there are not many of them, and they are not enough for combat.

Fortunately, Li Yang built a shipyard in Xuzhou in the later period, and specially made some small boats of this kind, which are now being transported by the soldiers of the Zhenhai Regiment.

Of course, in this battle, the battle on the water is still very crucial, and it can't just be these small boats, so Li Yang also asked Yan Yi, the deputy commander of the Zhenhai Naval Regiment, to personally lead more than a dozen Molong and a hundred high-level warships to come together, and the province had to fight on the water.

However, Li Yang's car, the Shenlong Battleship, was arranged for Gan Ning.

Although this water surface is not particularly narrow, and the Shenlong battleship can also pass normally, but the Shenlong battleship is too large, and the river surface turns around, etc., it is not particularly convenient, if it is accidentally stranded, then it can only be beaten passively, and it is better to leave it to Gan Ning.

Combat power aside, the size of the Shenlong Battleship is there, and the large size and area on board ensure that he can transport more soldiers and materials, and even has a more powerful power drive speed, which can effectively reduce the transportation pressure of the Zhenhai Regiment.

In the past few days of quietly waiting for Yan Yi's arrival, Li Yang has also received several bad news one after another.

As previously speculated, Liu Biao and Cao Cao sent troops.

Liu Biao and Wang Qi, who were about to engage in civil strife, have now mixed together for some reason, and the two can be regarded as joining forces and attacking Runan together.

Fortunately, Sun Ce has many capable people, and he is not afraid of them for a while.

Besides, their main force is not far from them, and they can support at any time, and they can even go around the water to directly attack Liu Biao.

What worries Li Yang is Cao Cao's here.

As Zhang Liang and Li Yang had guessed before, Cao Cao's soldiers divided into two routes, one to attack the Tiger Prison Pass and Bishui Pass where the Taishan Army was stationed, and the other was the main force to attack and annex the state.

Fortunately, Huang Zhong and Guo Jia, who had received Li Yang's orders early, had already sent the main force to the junction to defend, which could be regarded as blocking Cao Cao's first wave of attacks.

However, Cao Cao's subordinates have quite a lot of talents, not to mention anything else, even Su Qin alone, it is quite difficult to deal with.

The matter of talking to Ma Teng has not yet reached a final conclusion, and now he does not dare to conclude whether Ma Teng will go as promised, and Li Yang will not pin all his hopes on such a possible thing.

Therefore, he ordered the Tiger Legion, which had been prepared for a long time, to march towards the state.

At the same time, the Tiger Legion also brought Jia Xu, a top strategist.

I believe that with the two top strategists Guo Jia and Jia Xu, plus the two legions are reasonable, they should be able to block Cao Cao's attack.
