"You lead the navy south to block the canal. If you have the opportunity, take the opportunity to capture Wu Jun's Qinghe Water Village!"

Wang Jing said in a deep voice.

Everyone's eyes flashed, and they all understood the reason for his arrangement. This was to block Yang Xingmi's retreat so that he would not be able to cross the river and escape to the south of the Huaihe River after his defeat.

Of course, the success of blocking the river and intercepting the opponent's retreat depends on whether Yang Kan can complete the order.

Time is running out.

After Wang Jing finished giving his instructions, many generals immediately went to prepare.

The sky gradually darkens.

In order to rush for time, Yang Kan marched at night with 10,000 cavalry. Even if the night march resulted in the loss of precious cavalry, he would not hesitate...

The sky at night is dotted with stars. The world of China is made up of countless illusory worlds. The stars in the sky are roughly similar to the source world. And brighter.

The cool moonlight fell.

In the wilderness, rolling camps lay on the ground, and Yang Xingmi was patrolling the camps with his personal guards.

The military camp was very quiet at night, with only the crackling torches burning and groups of soldiers on patrol walking back and forth in the camp.

"Your Majesty, the night is already dark, you'd better rest early!"

The commander of the personal guards beside him saw that it was late and persuaded in a low voice.

Yang Xingmi waved his hand, with a hint of worry on his face. After he sent out troops, he felt a little uneasy and felt as if he had ignored some problem.

He thought about it, but couldn't figure out what the problem was, so he could only suppress this feeling temporarily.

It was quiet in the camp at this time.

He couldn't help but feel that uneasiness again. This kind of uneasiness is not the panic of an imminent war. Since Yang Xingmi raised his army, he has suffered repeated defeats and been defeated countless times.

But he always maintained confidence and never felt depressed.

People who have achieved great things in history all have this trait.

At this time, there was a faint sound of horse hoofbeats outside the camp. Not long after, Yuan Xi, the military advisor accompanying the army, rushed over with a serious look on his face.

Yang Xingmi was shocked.

This scene seems to have happened several times, and each time it was Wang Jing of Sihong who did something big, which caused uneasiness in the Wu army.

Could it be?

"Your Majesty, the situation is not good...Hou Jing's army was defeated and killed, tens of thousands of troops collapsed, and the Huai army has won a great victory!"

Yuan Xi reported in a low voice.

Yang Xingmi's expression changed drastically, and he took the information from Yuan Xi's hand, looking a little shocked and confused.

"This...Hou Jing was defeated so quickly?"

Not long ago, he received military information from spies, saying that Hou Jing was at a disadvantage in the fight with the Huai army, but with Hou Jing's strength, he should be able to hold on for a few more days.

As long as Hou Jing can hold out for three or four days, his army will be able to arrive in a hurry.

Qinghe is not too far from Siyang.

Yang Xingmi thought about it and felt that no matter how incompetent Hou Jing was, he could hold off the Huai army for a few days... Unexpectedly, he really underestimated the limit of Hou Jing's incompetence.

"What a waste!"

His face was stiff, and he cursed after a while.

When Hou Jing fought against him, his soldiers were brave and commanded well. Even his generals Zhou Ben and Li Shenfu did not take advantage of them.

Such a difficult opponent could not be stopped by the Huai army for even two or three days.

Hou Jing pulled forward.

Yang Xingmi suddenly felt a little confused. The Huai army had already won a great victory. Without Hou Jing's restraint, Wang Jing could easily deal with the Wu army's attack.

Although Yang Xingmi felt that he had an army of 100,000, he would not necessarily lose in a fight with the Huai army.

But as long as the two sides face each other, they will not be able to escape in a short time.

When the time comes, it will be him, Yang Xingmi, who will consume each other with the Huai army.

"Does the military advisor have any countermeasures?"

Yang Xingmi's expression kept changing, his thoughts fluctuated, and he began to ask Yuan Xi's opinion.

Yuan Xi pondered for a moment and sighed: "From my perspective, our army is like an arrow leaving the string. It can only move forward and cannot retreat. The news of the 100,000-strong army going north will definitely not be concealed from the Huai army."

"Since the other party knows the attitude of our army, after wiping out Hou Jing and Pang Shigu, whether for expansion or revenge, they will definitely go south. When the time comes, our army will also become the enemy of the Huai Army!"

"Since we will have to fight with the Huai Army sooner or later, why not use all our strength now to fight to the death with the Huai Army!"

According to Yuan Xi's opinion.

After the Huai army crossed the canal and came to the land east of Huai, they were destined to be the enemies of the Wu army. There was no room for two tigers in one mountain, and there was no room for two forces that wanted to compete for hegemony in one territory.

"Your Majesty, you have also seen the news. The Huai Army has just won a great victory. Although their morale is high, they have just fought a bloody battle with Hou Jing, and their physical strength must not have recovered yet!"

"At this time, we went north to defeat the exhausted with energy and gained some advantages!"

"But if we retreat, it will give the Huai army time to slowly digest Hou Jing's army. When the time comes, the Huai army will annex Hou Jing's army, and its strength will only increase!"

Yuan Xi saw that his lord had not made up his mind, so he persuaded him again.

Yang Xingmi nodded slowly.

As time goes by, the original night gradually fades away, and the light of the morning slowly restores life to the earth.

The silent camp began to make sounds.

A large number of soldiers came out of the camp and, under the leadership of the general, made pots to cook.

Smoke rose from the sky above the camps that stretched for more than ten miles.

Boom!

At this time, there was a faint vibration in the distance, like the earth shaking. Most of the soldiers in the Wu Army camp raised their heads and looked around blankly.

They had no idea what was going on and thought a minor earthquake had occurred.

The elite generals who had been following Yang Xingmi for a long time turned pale in an instant, with frightened and nervous expressions on their faces. Some of them blew the whistle representing emergency information.

"There are enemies, form your team quickly!"

These elite generals immediately knew the cause of the ground shaking. It was the sound of a large-scale cavalry dispatch.

At first they fought with Sun Ru and faced off against the cavalry of Jiedushi in the north.

I don’t know how much I suffered under the iron cavalry.

Every time is a bloody lesson.

Over time, they became very sensitive to the movement of cavalry.

While they were shocked, they also had some doubts in their hearts. There were many sentinels scattered around the perimeter by the Wu army, but none of them raised the alarm when the cavalry approached!

boom!

After hearing the whistle that represented the warning, the war drums beat in the military camp. A large number of soldiers were caught off guard and were gathered in a mess by the generals. Prepare to list military formations.
