Text: The Great Power Conflict_Chapter 268 Galahad Escaped
Time went back a few days, and at this time, Luo Cheng was still leading 100,000 elite cavalry under his command, scattering in all directions to attack the migrated people of the country where the sun never sets. On this day, Xiao Chen, with Yue Fei and other generals, led a million-strong army to the Erbuna River. On the other side of the river is the land of Sanguan County, which is now the country of Beichen. At this moment, on the river, thousands of warships are leaning on the north bank of the river, transporting the officers and men of the Beichen Army to the ship.
Ever since he felt that Long Nago was going to die tricky, Xiao Chen adopted the best of Yue Fei's three strategies. A few days ago, he quietly led an army of millions and slipped out from under Lancelot's nose. After several days of secret marching, the million-strong army finally arrived at the banks of the Erbuna River. When the army arrived at the river, the thousands of Beichen Navy's ships that had already arrived in the river immediately headed towards the north bank.
Xiao Chen, Yue Fei and other generals stood by the river, looking at the places along the river for more than ten miles, all of which were scenes of their own soldiers boarding the boat. When 500,000 of the 1,000,000 Beichen soldiers who stayed on the north bank boarded the ship, some soldiers came to report that all the 500,000 troops had boarded the ship and could go to the south of the Yangtze River at any time.
Then, Xiao Chen took Zhao Yun and began to say goodbye to Yue Fei and other generals: "Pengju, this time you have penetrated into the enemy, there are many dangers, you need to take care of yourself!" ”
Yue Fei nodded and said, "The king doesn't have to worry, the last general will definitely live up to the king's trust!" ”
"Okay, since Pengju said so, the Lone King is relieved!" Xiao Chen said with great relief.
Subsequently, after Yiyi said goodbye to the generals, Xiao Chen boarded the warship that came to greet him under the protection of Zhao Yun and hundreds of guards. It didn't take long for the thousands of boats carrying Xiao Chen and other 500,000 troops to cross the river slowly left the north bank of the river and slowly moved towards the river. Yue Fei was still standing by the river, watching hundreds of thousands of troops cross the river, and he didn't leave the river until the thousand boats disappeared from sight.
As soon as he returned to the temporary army station, Yue Fei summoned several generals under his command and began to give orders and arrange some things.
"Yue Yun!"
"The last general!" After hearing Yue Fei call his name, Yue Yun immediately responded and saluted.
"Later, you command the army, and in the evening you begin to prepare to board the ship, and as soon as it gets dark, the army immediately sails along the river west!"
"The last general obeys!" Yue Yun said loudly.
"Zhang Xian!" After assigning another task to Yue Yun, Yue Fei called out the name of a general again.
Zhang Xian also responded to the call: "The end will be!" ”
"Zhang Xian listened to the order, you led 30,000 iron horsemen, under the banner of Luo Cheng, along the north coast of the river, all the way to the west. Along the way, all the people and troops of the country where the sun never sets were killed. Don't let them come to the river and find traces of our army! ”
"The last general commands!"
Then, Yue Fei shouted again: "Where is Li Ancheng!" ”
Li Ancheng also immediately stood up and said: "The end will be!" ”
"General Li, I will later order you to command the sailors and send some small boats to clean up all the river areas north of the city of Wentil. Whether it was a fishing boat or some enemy warships, they all hit me to the bottom of the river. Also, have all your sailors come as soon as the army crosses the river. After that, there is a good chance that there will be a big water battle, and you will have to concentrate all your forces to deal with the troops of the Naval Division of the Sun Never Sets. ”
"The last general obeys!" Li Ancheng took the military order and returned to his position.
"Ma Chao!"
"The last general!"
"You lead 30,000 iron horsemen, cross the river at once, and then go west along the river, and clean me up like the enemy along the way. Remember, your banner should also be under the banner of Luo Cheng, understand? ”
"The last general understands!"
This time, our hundreds of thousands of troops are deep behind enemy lines, and we cannot tolerate any mistakes on our part, and I hope that you can do your best to open up territory for the king! In the end, Yue Fei said a word to everyone.
The generals in the tent also clenched their fists and said: "Do your best to open up territory for the king!" “
In the evening of the same day, hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Beichen Army came to the river again, waiting for the incoming sailor ships.
Yue Fei looked at the hundreds of thousands of people on the shore, and Yue Fei was very confident in this battle behind enemy lines. Until now, the high-ranking officials of the Duchy of the Sun Never Setting had not known that the Beichen Army in the fortress of Lonago was a full one million. And the army went all the way south, and if it went anywhere, it would impose martial law in one place. Although he was marching within the borders, Yue Fei still tried his best to keep it secret.
Although the military intelligence bureau of Beichen Country is very powerful now, there is no guarantee that it will not be entered into its territory by spies from the country where the sun never sets. Even Qin Ming of the Military Intelligence Bureau assured himself that he would not let the spies of the country where the sun never set enter the martial law range of the army for thirty miles. However, wherever the army goes, it will leave a trail, and an experienced fellow can tell how many people there are based on the footprints on the ground. In addition, the Beichen army marched south, all the way to martial law. As long as you follow the direction of martial law, the blanket of the country where the sun never sets can easily know the movements of the Beichen army.
There was a time before, before the Beichen Army arrived at the predetermined location, the spies from the country where the sun never sets had already arrived. And he completely observed the entire situation of the Beichen Army, which made Yue Fei angry. Fortunately, this unlucky guy ran more than a hundred miles and was still killed by the people of the Military Intelligence Agency.
For this hateful spy, Qin Ming was also very angry. He also promised Yue Fei before that he would never let the spies of the country where the sun never sets enter within thirty miles of the army's marching range. As a result, it was good now, and the people were dozens of steps away, and they clearly observed the movements of the Beichen army. And the group of fools under his command, so many people let a small spy escape, and they ran for more than a hundred miles to catch up. Damn, it's a shame to be thrown at grandma's house!
The current situation is a little better, since that time the spies of the country where the sun never sets prejudged the route, Yue Fei hurriedly thought of a way. That is the false, the false, the true, the false.
On the one hand, Yue Fei divided several teams of tens of thousands of people, mostly holding flags, and bluffing and pretending to be an army along the way. However, the route of the march was from south to north or from north to south. Completely confuse several detachments, so that everyone does not know whether they are secretly marching or moving normally. On the other hand, Yue Fei also sent a fast horse to inform Zhang Han and asked Zhang Han to cooperate with his actions. Secretly sent tens of thousands of horses to hold the flag, pretending to be a large army. Moreover, it also needs to be accidentally detected by the spies of the country where the sun never sets. Along the way, just like on my own side, all the scheduled routes were under martial law.
In this way, Yue Fei thought that the spies in the country where the sun never set would definitely report everything they knew. When the time comes, it will be enough for those guys in the country where the sun never sets. In fact, it was exactly like this, when the Xilong Lord Helen and the Glenn Lord David, who were guarding the Beichen Army, saw the information of the spies, their heads suddenly became bigger. How many million-strong armies are moving south or north? What is the situation, the content of more than a dozen pieces of intelligence is completely different. But almost every piece of information clearly marked the route of the Beichen Army, and why was it a million troops?
On top of more than a dozen pieces of information, all of them said that the Beichen Army was a million-strong army. Damn, when did the four million Beichen Army become more than 10 million? If that were the case, the sun would not set on the country and there would be no need to fight again. There are more than 10 million troops in one Beichen country, which is enough for the country where the sun never sets to eat a pot, plus the Xia country in the west, the country where the sun does not set cannot fight at all.
The annoyed two immediately tore up this information, in fact, both of them also knew that this was an obvious trick to confuse. Among these dozen pieces of information, there must be true, and the rest are false. But the key is which one is true, all of them are millions of troops. Most of the destinations are along the Erbna River and the Lonnago Fortress. It's just that the marching route is different, and what really worries the two of them is the movements of Zhang Han's department on the south bank of the Yangtze River.
The number of Beichen troops marching south is unknown, and no spies have actually observed it up close. However, the two believed that this was very likely the enemy army in Jiangbei, and it was just a cover for the enemy army in Jiangnan to go north. In fact, the real killer move of Beichen Kingdom is the Jiangnan Zhanghan Division, because a spy found out that there is a force in the south that is heading north in an unexpected opportunity, and the number is definitely around 500,000. At the same time, a few days later, a battle report from Galahad made the two think that the hundreds of thousands of Beichen troops who rushed north to Longnago were the real ones. The rest of the Beichen army along the way was fake, and martial law was also to cover the army going north.
Li Ancheng led thousands of warships of the naval division and quickly rushed over. More than 2,000 transport ships, and more than 2,000 warships. Nearly 5,000 ships sailed through the not very wide Erbuna River. Countless masts and sails cover the sky and the sun, which is extremely spectacular.
As soon as the ships of the naval division troops came, Yue Fei ordered the army to get on board as soon as possible. The officers and men of the Beichen Army, who had been prepared for a long time, rushed into the cabin quickly and orderly after the big ship docked on the shore. As soon as it got dark, hundreds of thousands of troops had already boarded the ships, and thousands of ships set sail at the request of the military order.
Yue Fei wouldn't have given the order to set off like this, now that it was just getting dark, it wasn't completely dark. At this time, if the Beichen Army set off, it would soon be out of the martial law range. When the time comes, if you want not to be discovered by the country where the sun never sets, you can only rely on the night. The night and the moon are dark, the more conducive to your own actions. In addition, the army went deep behind enemy lines, and after crossing the river, it was sure to attack the city. It was very difficult to have good siege weapons, so Yue Fei stuffed a large number of siege weapons on the ships. In addition to the necessary grain and grass and other materials, it will take a while to load the ship.
It wasn't until nearly nine o'clock that the huge fleet slowly headed west against the river.
Of the 2,000 transport ships, only more than 500 were loaded with soldiers, and the rest were all grain and grass supplies, as well as siege weapons, weapons and armor. Two thousand transports were in the center of the fleet, and at the very front of the fleet, seven huge ships stood side by side. Between the building ships and the building ships, there are also many small warships, which are mainly auxiliary to the fighting of the building ships. In the second row are fourteen vehicles and ships, and the volume of the vehicles and ships is not comparable to that of the building ships, but the combat effectiveness is not comparable. After that, there were countless small ships, with the largest number of fighting ships and sterns, and the individual combat effectiveness was very poor. But if it is a whole piece, it is definitely not something that a dozen building ships can completely do.
Behind the transport, there are also many warships guarding it. After all, there were 500,000 troops in more than 2,000 transport ships, as well as enough food and supplies for them. This must not go wrong, otherwise, no one can afford it.
Along the way, the river was pitch black, and the building ships did not dare to rush at all, so they could only let the small warships explore the way in front. Then, the boat follows behind, and the ship behind follows the ship in front. But even so, there was a little trouble. Several ships transporting grain and grass materials have been lost, and I don't know where they went? This made Li Ancheng, who was called up in the middle of the night, jump up and down angrily, damn, this group of rabbit cubs is embarrassing to themselves. This can be fucking lost.,Is it your own training?,Is it really that bad? A trained sailor can get lost in a boat?
After a few hours of driving, it was already past four o'clock in the middle of the night. At this time, Yue Fei still didn't sleep, and after a slight estimate in his heart, he asked people to convey orders to Li Ancheng and Ma Chao. Subsequently, Li Ancheng ordered the whole army to stop advancing, and then the transport ship carrying 30,000 cavalry, carrying people and horses, quickly rushed to the shore.
The process of going ashore was very smooth, and the river was completely dark, indicating that the enemy had not yet discovered his troops. Ma Chao led the cavalry troops, and soon went ashore, and after advancing ten miles south along the shore, he swept to the west front. Everyone you met along the way was killed, and for the sake of the concealment of the main army, it was not a matter of killing as many enemy civilians as possible.
After Ma Chao brought the people ashore, the remaining boats moved forward again. Now there are cavalry along the river to clear the enemy, and the fleet can march in the daytime. As for David and Helen, after getting the troops led by Ma Chao to resist the banner of the Beichen Army, Luo Chengjun, they didn't care at all.
In the vicinity of Wentier City, except for the city and the mountain forest, the rest has long become a playground under Luo Chengma. Therefore, the two of them naturally thought that this was part of the 100,000 iron cavalry under Luo Cheng of the Beichen Army. The purpose is to play the sabotage war, so the two of them just let their subordinates strengthen their defenses.
The plan, so far, has not been detected by the enemy, which is a very happy thing!
