Hearing the news of Long Zaitian's turn, Ying Chong's breathing couldn't help but be tight. I thought to myself, is that one finally here?

This was the second large-scale battle he faced since he took the throne, but he still felt nervous, and his chest was uneven.

In terms of scale, this Donghe counterinsurgency battle has surpassed the previous battle in Jizhou by more than twice as much. And the significance of this battle to Great Qin is also better than the pacification of the Xiongnu.

Taking a deep breath, Ying Chong tried his best to calm down, and then ordered someone to open the map, directly in the picture.

"The decisive battle is here! Ordered Li Guang to lead the people of the second division forward and seize the Sanlipo formation here. And send the ranger Xuan Xiu to explore the Quartet, everything that is different from the ordinary here must not be let go. ”

Guo Jia glanced at it and knew that the place where Ying Chong chose to fight was the central area between the two armies. It was also a plain, surrounded by flat rivers. Only Sanlipo is slightly higher and can be equipped with ballistas and stone generators.

Long Guogong had no choice but to block the rebel army here. For the rebel army, choosing this decisive battle is not unacceptable, and it can give full play to the advantages of the forbidden army's combat strength.

In addition, it is only more than 30 miles away from the bank of the East River, and it is still within the cover range of the water division.

And he, the sovereign, is extremely cautious even at this moment.

"In addition, the whole army prepared torches and lighting techniques, and all the cooking camps made fires here to prepare for the front. ”

This is due to the fact that it is already night, and it is necessary to fight at night. And all the five-star ink armor in the army, although they have an observation and sighting system, they can also see at night, but the rest of the auxiliary soldiers have no night vision.

Physical strength also needs to be taken into account, and only after you have eaten a full meal can you have strength. As for the battle at night, Ying Chong did not expect it to end in a few hours, so he needed a safe place to cook food and replenish it at any time. It is important to know that dry food and hot rice cannot be compared after all.

It's just that after giving these orders, Ying Chong still couldn't be completely relieved, his brows were furrowed, and he felt that he seemed to have missed something.

But after a while, Han Xin had already ridden in front of him: "Your Highness, I see that something is wrong in that river, Your Highness had better ask Xuan Xiu to go over and take a look." ”

Ying Chong raised his eyebrows slightly, and immediately rode his horse to the river. He looked closely at the surface of the river, and found nothing unusual. But when Han Xin scooped a pot of water from the river, Ying Chong looked at some tiny white crystals like dust inside, but his complexion changed slightly.

"-this, whale dust?"

It's also thanks to the fact that he has read a lot of Taoist books in the past year to recognize this thing. The so-called whale dust is a powder made from the flesh and blood of beluga whales that live in the far north.

This substance is often used in alchemy, and is also used as an auxiliary spell casting material by many Xuan Xiu. It is only because there is abundant cold power inside.

"I see—"

Ying Chong understood, and finally showed relief in his eyes: "This person actually wants to freeze the entire East River, what a big deal." 【】”

Everyone present was also cold. I feel that the Duke of Long Guo is really scheming, and he deserves to be a famous general in the world. Today, the slightest negligence on their part could lead to ruin!

But at this moment, Ying Chong chuckled lightly and looked at the south: "It seems that that person is already exhausted." ”

In the past, the Duke of Long Guo was never famous for this conspiracy.

When the red glow was shining on the horizon, the dragon of Longguo was in the field, floating in the air at a height of three hundred zhang. However, at this time, he did not look at the enemy army that was slowly moving dozens of miles away, but looked at the East River not far away.

The width of the East River is 370 zhang, the depth of the water is 24 zhang, and among all the tributaries of the Qingjiang River, the scale can rank among the top three.

- But such a huge river, at this time, its surface has been completely frozen.

This was not done by someone on their side, but someone else on the other side cast a spell, and with the help of the power of those whale powders, this river was frozen in advance.

Seeing this, Long Zaitian couldn't help but sigh: "It's really worthy of being the son of a supernatural power, it's really good." At least in the art of war, there are few people in the world who can beat him. ”

Pei Kuan next to him also looked calm. Long Zaitian's efforts, he has seen it in his eyes for the past two days, and this can be said to be the exhaustion of the organs. But even so, they still failed to calculate the Yingchong, and they couldn't force the opponent to fight a decisive battle under the terrain they wanted.

Sighing secretly, Pei Kuan asked a Xuan Xiu enshrined beside him: "How long can the freezing of this river last?"

"If there is no interference. Up to seven days, but—"

The man replied as he looked further away: "According to a conservative estimate, six hours is the limit. ”

Several people here can see that on the ice surface, a rainbow of light appears. This is due to the large increase in the temperature above the river surface and the rise of water vapor.

Not surprisingly, this must be the handiwork of the opposite onmyoji. Presumably, it won't be long before the ice will be thawed. And the 170,000 sailors can also sail into the East River unharmed.

"Let's get ready for a decisive battle"

Long Zaitian looked at the other side fixedly: "All the illusions of you and me can be abandoned! There is no other way to think about it than to meet the enemy head-on." ”

Then, in the next moment, he saw the forbidden army on the opposite side suddenly stop, and then pieces of stone walls rose from the ground.

Seeing this, Long Zaitian couldn't help but smile bitterly. I thought that this junior was really unforgiving. In this situation, which has basically prevailed, it is still reluctant to act rashly. Do you still have to wait for the 170,000-strong sailors to enter the East River? I really don't want to give him even the slightest chance.

※※※※

Ying Chong really didn't want to take the initiative to attack, and now that time was on his side, it didn't hurt to drag on here for three or five hours.

Secondly, it is also planned to tidy up a little here, so that the soldiers can eat a hot meal and rest for a while. After a day of marching, the soldiers under his command were a little tired. The rebels opposite him, on the other hand, were waiting for work.

Although the impact on the combat strength of the forbidden army was minimal, once the two sides fought for more than six hours, it could become a cause of his defeat.

Staying steady here is the best policy.

However, Long Zaitian on the other side was obviously unwilling to give him any respite. Just when the armies of the two sides approached ten miles, the opposite side had already begun a strong attack. The first is to start with the bow and crossbow, and countless arrows only take off into the air and scatter in. Twelve rounds in a row, in just one moment, poured tens of millions of arrows into the position of the rebel army.

But Yingchong's command is not far behind. The elite of the forbidden army was also undoubtedly revealed at this moment. The range and power of the powerful bow and crossbow in his hand are far superior to those of his opponent.

Twelve rounds of arrows rained down, and at least 50,000 people were killed or wounded on the opposite side. On the rebel side, due to the cover of the breastwork, the loss was less than 10,000 people.

However, under the cover of this vast rain of arrows, tens of thousands of rebels have already stormed their positions.

Seeing this big array, the scene of the rebels coming forward one after another, overwhelming like a sea of mountains, Xie An, who was standing on Sanlipo and watching the battlefield, couldn't help but gasp.

"That Long Guogong, is he planning to fight hard and win with one blow?"

"Obviously, he can't afford to delay it now, and he wants a quick victory more than His Highness. ”

Guo Jia is also the first time that he is on the battlefield of a million-man battle, but his expression is indifferent: "It's a bit exaggerated to win a decisive battle with one blow, but he never wants to see this battle drag on until tomorrow morning."
