Everyone fell silent.
Zhao Mancheng is right.
Originally they expected Chu and Meng Yuan to suppress Liaodong and fight. And Wu Nian had an unstable foothold in the north of Goguryeo, so they could wait and wait for the opportunity.
Unexpectedly, Chu State, Meng Yuan Dynasty attacked from the north and south.
Liaodong is still as solid as a rock.
The northern part of Goguryeo was also managed by Wu Nian as if it was his own territory. The years of accumulation of the Goguryeo Kim Dynasty seem to be a joke.
If the confrontation lasts for a long time, the situation will not be good for them.
Li Jinzhu's fair and rosy face showed hesitation. After pondering for a long time, she bit her red lips lightly and said, "General Zhao is right, it's time to give it a try."
"Isn't three thousand soldiers and horses too few? General Zhao can bring ten thousand people there."
Zhao Mancheng shook his head, clasped his fists and said, "Ten thousand people is too many. The ship is too big to turn around. I will take three thousand people and cross the river on a speedboat. If things go wrong, I can return quickly."
Li Jinzhu nodded, determination flashing in his eyes. He stood up and said, "Okay. Wealth can be found in danger. General Zhao will act according to his plan."
Some important ministers opened their mouths, but in the end they remained silent.
The brave and skilled [Snow Qilin].
The queen mother who is determined to be cut off.
Once they have made a decision, it is difficult to shake it.
"Yes." Zhao Mancheng responded, then hugged Li Yunchong, turned around and left the hall.
Li Yunchong immediately chased after him and shouted: "General Zhao."
"General Li." Zhao Mancheng stopped and turned around with a look of confusion.
"Take care." Li Yunchong looked at Zhao Mancheng's handsome and majestic face and said sincerely, clasping his fists.
"Thank you." Zhao Mancheng showed a slight smile, thanked him, turned around and left.
"Brave and wise. What a general. It would be great if we had more generals like Zhao Mancheng." Li Yunchong watched Zhao Mancheng's leaving back and sighed softly.
.........
During Wu Nian's time in Jiangnan, many spies were active.
In order to avoid the eyes and ears, Zhao Mancheng disguised himself and arrived at Enting Water Village at noon that day with only a small number of soldiers.
The water village is very large, with 25,000 water and land soldiers.
The general is Chen Hong.
After Zhao Mancheng entered the camp, he immediately went to see Chen Hong, and then summoned the leading generals in the Chinese army's tent.
Zhao Mancheng sat in the main seat with sharp eyes and a loud voice. He told the generals his plan.
After hearing this, the generals' expressions changed drastically.
Three thousand elite soldiers attacked Wu Nian's camp at night?
Then, they felt admiration for Zhao Mancheng in their hearts.
This is putting one's life at risk.
It is indeed a snow unicorn.
"Everyone go back immediately and help me gather three thousand armored troops who dare to die with me. Tell them that if I win, I will never treat them badly."
"Then let them go to bed and rest immediately to recharge their batteries."
"In addition, there may be Wu Nian's secret work in our army. In order to prevent the news from leaking, we must strengthen our vigilance." Zhao Mancheng said in a deep voice.
"Yes." The generals responded loudly, immediately stood up and turned around to leave.
If it were an ordinary person. It is difficult to find 3,000 soldiers who dare to die in a large camp of 25,000 people.
But Xue Qilin is not an ordinary person. There are even 5,000 people who are willing to follow Xue Qilin across the river and attack Wu Nian's camp at night.
The generals selected the strongest among them, got three thousand elite armored soldiers, and then immediately arranged for them to go to bed.
The generals were nervous and restless, just watching the time pass.
This day was really long.
late at night.
Three thousand elite armored soldiers lined up neatly and stood on the school field. On the ordering platform made of wood, Zhao Mancheng was dressed in white armor, exuding a hazy light under the blessing of the stars and the moon.
Zhao Mancheng took a deep breath, stepped forward, and said loudly: "Thank you all for being willing to die with me. If you are grateful, I won't say more."
"I will definitely be able to lead you to defeat Wu Nian's camp. I will avenge the destruction of my country."
"Set off."
Zhao Mancheng raised his right hand and said loudly.
"yes."
The three thousand elite soldiers did not dare to speak loudly and responded in a low voice. Then, under the leadership of the officer, they quickly turned north and boarded the warship on the shore.
"I wish you victory, general." General Chen Hong personally held a cup of steaming wine and handed it to Zhao Mancheng.
"Thank you." Zhao Mancheng thanked him, reached for the wine glass and drank it in one gulp. Then he strode off the military platform and headed north.
Soon after, the navy soldiers opened the gate of the water village. One after another, small warships faced the river wind and headed north.
Zhao Mancheng did not choose to attack the water stronghold head-on. Instead, he chose to land on the east side of the water stronghold, and then launched an attack on Wu Nian's water stronghold on flat ground.
After getting off the warship, the soldiers carried long ladders, surrounded Zhao Mancheng, and headed west. Soon, they reached the land part of the water village.
Wu Nianjun was on very tight guard and discovered Zhao Mancheng at once.
"Someone is attacking!!!" Wu Nianjun's soldiers sounded a warning.
"Pfft" sound. The soldier was shot in the neck by an arrow and fell down the camp wall without saying a word.
Zhao Mancheng put down his bow, pulled out the steel knife from his waist, and shouted: "Brothers, our country was conquered by Wu Nian."
"Everyone should feel ashamed. Now take revenge if you have a grudge, and take revenge if you have a grudge."
"kill!!!!"
"Kill!!!!" The Goguryeo soldiers roared with blood and red faces. They carried ladders and launched an attack on Wu Nianjun's water stronghold.
"Brothers, stop them." The soldiers of Wu Nian's army on the camp wall did not flinch. They shouted, bent their bows and arrows and shot out the arrows in their hands desperately.
at the same time. The Wu Nianjun soldiers in the camp also woke up and quickly put on their armor or jackets to provide support.
But there is no suspense about the outcome of the battle.
The scale of this water village is so huge that it can accommodate 80,000 people. The defenders only had five thousand households, scattered over a wide area, and were attacked by snow unicorns at night.
There is really no way to resist.
The five thousand households put it together and decided that it was more important to save the lives of the soldiers. So he led the soldiers in embarrassment and left the camp.
"Set fire. Set fire to this water stronghold."
After the victory, Zhao Mancheng rode on a stolen white horse and held a silver gun. White armor and silver spear paired with a white horse, the heroism is as high as the clouds. He kept raising the silver gun in his hand and shouting orders.
The Goguryeo soldiers were also extremely excited and scattered around to light fires. In the blink of an eye, this huge water village turned into a sea of fire.
Wu Nian destroyed many tents, food and warships.
"Withdraw troops. Withdraw troops." Seeing that the situation was almost over, Zhao Mancheng led three thousand soldiers to leave the water village from the camp gate, boarded the warship, and returned to the camp on the south bank.
