As early as when Chen Yan and Ma De had just left the Mujun camp, Sima Changren, who pretended to be critically ill, immediately turned over and sat up from the bed, and when Zhou Fang came back, he immediately said to Zhou Fang: "General Zhou, quickly ambush the soldiers of our army in Huya Forest again!"

Huya Forest is the dense forest on the other side of the last time Lin Haotian secretly crossed the river.

Hearing Sima Changren's words, Zhou Fang was stunned and subconsciously asked, "General Sima, why does our army want to bury it in Huya Forest?"

Sima Changren sneered and said: "Discussing peace and major events, the imperial court only sent two third-grade prime ministers for a long time, where can Chen Yan and Ma De, two scholars who have never seen the world, be Lin Haotian's opponents, I am critically ill, I will definitely be tricked out by Lin Haotian, with Lin Haotian's character, I will definitely not let go of this excellent opportunity." Looking at the Wangjiang River, the only place suitable for smuggling within a hundred miles is Huya Forest, and the other places suitable for smuggling are all located a hundred miles away, and the Jin army will not run that far; in addition, Lin Haotian is treacherous and cunning, and the last time the Jin army suffered a defeat there, he is very likely to think that our army will not set up an ambush here again, and will take risks to try; in addition, Lin Haotian has a strong revenge mentality, since he led the Jin army to fight, he has won successive battles, and the only battle that can be regarded as a defeat is in Huya Forest, he wants to regain this face, even if there are other places that are more suitable for smuggling, he will choose to be here！”

After a pause, Sima Changren took a deep breath and said quietly: "Lin Haotian will definitely smuggle in again, if nothing else, it will be tonight!"

Zhou Fang was also skeptical of Sima Changren's oath, but he also learned Sima Changren's clever calculations. The first time the Jin army smuggled in, Mu Jun first set up an ambush in the Huya Forest on the other side, Lin Haotian thought that the spy had leaked the news, his guess was not wrong, someone did leak the news to Mu Jun. It was only before the news was revealed that Sima Changren had already ambushed his heavy troops there.

Wang Jiang is so long, he didn't ambush his heavy troops elsewhere, but chose Huya Forest, and the result was really calculated by him, and it was from here that the Jin army launched smuggling. It just hit the edge of Mu Jun's knife.

With the success of the last time, Zhou Fang's confidence this time was much fuller, and according to Sima Changren's intentions, he brought out the main force of the wooden army early, and ambushed it in the Huya Forest.

That night, after the Jin army had eaten a war meal, they began to collect their own ships and rafts, and the whole army set out quietly out of the camp. Head south at full speed.

Twenty miles away, in an instant, looking at the other side of the river, which was dark and dark, and there was no sound at all, Ling Wuya found Lin Haotian and asked, "My lord, my military doesn't need to send spies to the other side to reconnoiter first!"

Lin Haotian didn't even think about it, waved his hand and said, "No need to reconnoitre, just cross the river!"

Last time he suffered a big loss in reconnaissance. This time, Lin Haotian made up his mind and forcibly crossed the Wang River at a lightning speed. Annihilate the Wood Army in one fell swoop.

It is undoubtedly extremely risky for him to do so, but in Lin Haotian's opinion, it is worth taking such a risk, and there is great hope of success.

The boats and rafts brought by the Jin army could only transport up to 20,000 people across the river at a time, and Lin Haotian was not relentless at all. directly ordered to let their most elite First Legion cross the river first, and in addition, Ling Wuya and Shao Lin were also assigned to take the lead.

As long as you can cross the Wang River, with the skills of Ling Wuya and Shao Lin. Coupled with the 20,000 brave and skilled soldiers of the First Army, even if there is an enemy on the opposite bank, they can hold their positions and buy time for their entire army to cross the river.

Lin Haotian's wishful thinking played very well, but this time, the 20,000 soldiers of the First Army led by Ling Wuya and Shao Lin had not yet approached the other side of the river, and the wooden army in the ambush in the Huya Forest rushed out to kill, just like last time, it was still releasing rockets, but this time the wooden army had an extra terrible weapon, that is, the trebuchet left by the Jin army last time.

For ships, trebuchets can be much more destructive than rockets, and when a stone is shot out, the stone is driven from the bow of the ship, often through the stern, and directly through the hull, shooting a large round hole, and then the river begins to pour into the ship.

The first legion is brave, attacking the city, invincible, but the premise is on land, now on the water, the first legion can not be used, in the face of the raindrops of rockets in front, people immediately set up their shields, blocking the edge of the wooden army's arrow array, but there is no way to deal with the wooden army's trebuchet.

Where can the trebuchet be resisted by man, the huge thick and sharp stones shoot into the shield array, and the human shield shatters, and it hits the hull, and the ship sinks, and shoots onto the raft, and the raft breaks.

All of a sudden, 20,000 Jin troops, more than 1,000 small boats, and 500 rafts became ants on a hot pot, unable to advance or retreat, and were spinning straight on the river, and the sound of the Jin army's officers and men falling into the water and screaming one after another, could not be counted.

Ling Wuya and Shao Lin hurriedly stomped their feet on the small boat, but there was no way, they couldn't get ashore, no matter how big and strong their ability was, they couldn't take the enemy.

zuihou, in the case of being forced to be helpless, the two of them can only order the withdrawal of the army, as for how many people can be withdrawn from the retreat at this time, they can't care so much, how much can be withdrawn!

The 20,000 officers and men of the First Army Corps were killed and wounded under the coordinated attack of the wooden army's arrow array and trebuchets, and the surface of the Wang River was covered with floating corpses of the Jin army, and the water of the Wang River was once again stained red by the blood of the soldiers of the Jin army.

The second operation of the Jin army to cross the Wang River ended in failure, the last time the Jin army lost 30,000 people, this time it was a little stronger, going out 20,000, coming back 5,000, and losing more than 10,000, but in terms of the losses of the Jin army, this time it was much larger than the last time.

The 30,000 soldiers killed in the last battle were newly recruited, and even if all of them were killed, the impact on their own side was not great, and the 15,000 soldiers killed in this battle were the most elite first legion in the Jin army, and the loss of troops and combat power was a small matter.

The soldiers of the Jin Army are not afraid of fighting, nor are they afraid of dying on the battlefield, but even if they want to die in battle, they have to die vigorously, and fight to the death with the enemy, but now this battle is too hot, two crossings of the river to fight, the loss of troops is about to reach 50,000, but the result is not even the enemy's side, so many soldiers, buried at the bottom of the river in a daze, who wants to fight this kind of battle?

In the same place, different days but the same time, the Jin army was ambushed twice, defeated twice, Lin Haotian and the generals under his command were dumbfounded, people couldn't understand, their own actions have been so fast, how did the Mu army get the news again, and do a good job of ambushing, is it still hidden in their own army The spy passed the news out?

Until this time, Lin Haotian thought that it was the spies in the army who reported his actions to Mu Jun, but he did not expect that he had fallen for Sima Changren's tricks from the moment he decided to send troops.

Looking at the soldiers of the First Legion who returned from defeat, Lin Haotian did not be as angry as last time, but shook his head and laughed.

The battle had been fought so badly, but the adults were laughing, and everyone around couldn't help but wonder if Lin Haotian was overstimulated and went crazy.

Just when everyone wanted to come forward to persuade him, Lin Haotian looked up and said slowly: "As the commander of an army, I was tripped by this same stone twice in a row, how can I save my face?!" As he spoke, he separated the people around him and walked away to meet his own soldiers who had retreated from defeat.

Seeing the adults coming, everyone was ashamed, hanging their heads one by one, and they didn't dare to look at Lin Haotian.

The latter stood still in front of the soldiers without warning, he suddenly arched his hand, bowed deeply to everyone, and said at the same time: "It is the incompetence of this commander, the improper use of soldiers, and the involvement of all brothers, I have made amends to the brothers!"

Seeing Lin Haotian actually bowing to his own people, the soldiers of the First Legion were all stunned, and then, the sound of cheering was continuous, and people knelt on the ground together, their eyes flashed with tears, and they said in a trembling voice: "It's me who is incompetent!

Looking around at the soldiers of his own side who knelt down in the black press, Lin Haotian felt a lot of emotion in his heart, now he basically has no hope of going west to destroy the wood, it seems that accepting the peace of the wood country is the only way out.

Just as Lin Haotian was secretly pondering, a guard next to him suddenly exclaimed: "There is a ship! It's the warship of the Mu Kingdom!" (to be continued......)
