The cross-river battle that lasted for several months finally came to an end.

The casualties in this battle were extremely heavy. According to subsequent statistics, more than 100,000 people died in the battle, not counting the wounded.

After the post-war statistical data was handed over, Li Yang was really shocked.

But the effort is worth it. As long as we cross the Yangtze River, a complete land battle will follow. Li Yang has absolute confidence in this.

After the army was reorganized, Li Yang led them into the original camp of Zhao Junrui.

Although under the leadership of Han Xin, they retreated in a tight and orderly manner and even dismantled most of the camp items, they still saved Li Yang and the others a lot of trouble in terms of terrain transformation and other matters.

"The other side was obviously prepared for this retreat. It seems that Han Xin had expected that we would attack today."

Sitting at the head of the temporary main account, Li Yang looked at the generals below and said hesitantly.

"Brother, I think it's not that Han Xin expected that we would attack today, but that he had already made preparations for us to attack. Otherwise, apart from other things, there would be no chance of a successful attack on Zilong alone."

After listening to Zhang Liang's words, Li Yang nodded, expressing his approval and taking precautions. This also shows Han Xin's ability.

Then Li Yang turned to look at Li Jing, "Pharmacist, have you ever investigated the enemy's movements clearly?"

After hearing this, Li Jing stood up and replied: "Tell me, my lord, according to the report of the scouts, the enemy army is slowly moving to the southeast, and I am afraid that it will return to Danyang."

"Danyang!" Li Yang murmured.

Although Danyang City is not the seat of Danyang County, it is still a large city in Danyang County, and if Li Yang wants to enter Kuaiji, this is the only way to go.

"He retreated to Danyang City without hesitation, which means that he must have made sufficient preparations there." Li Yang tapped his fingers on the table, looked at the generals and said, "We have been delayed on the Yangtze River defense line.

It has taken several months and nearly 200,000 soldiers have been injured or killed. We cannot be delayed any longer. Do the generals have any countermeasures?"

The generals looked at each other, and finally Li Jing stood up.

"The Marquis of Huaiyin is an unparalleled warrior in the country. He is invincible in every battle. All his tricks and tricks will be of no use to him. To fight him, the only way is to fight him head-on."

Li Jing was a military general of the Tang Dynasty and the latest military god present. He was familiar with the art of war and was naturally familiar with the achievements of commanders in previous dynasties. Therefore, he had the most say in both Bai Qi and Han Xin.

.

Li Jing explained his views, and at the same time, his words revealed his desire to confront Han Xin head-on.

Li Yang glanced at Li Jing, raised his hand to signal him to sit down, and then looked at Bai Qi, "Wu An, do you have any ideas?"

Bai Qi, who still had a serious look on his face, stood up and said to Li Yang after hearing Li Yang's inquiry.

"Bai Qi didn't know Han Xin before. He just heard that Senior Brother Yao and Brother Shubao mentioned his achievements in the past few days, so he has some understanding of him."

After hearing what Bai Qi said, Li Yang couldn't help but raise his eyes and glance at Qin Qiong behind Li Jing.

He thought to himself that Qin Qiong is still unwilling to surrender to him in a down-to-earth manner, but it is a good sign that he can get along with Bai Qi and the others. However, if he is willing to completely surrender to him, then with Qin Qiong's ability, he may not be able to independently lead an army.

question.

"Han Xin has a man's heart, and he is very thoughtful in his military use. He will definitely be able to see through his strategies, such as luring the enemy and pretending to surrender. Therefore, if you want to defeat him, you can only use evil schemes and defeat them with force."

"How to plot?" Li Yang asked aloud.

"You need to go to Danyang and check the terrain before making any further decisions!"

After listening, Li Yang began to think deeply.

In fact, Li Yang also understood their feelings. Just like he did to Li Jing, he also relied on frontal bombing to force Yuan Shu to abandon the city and flee. Otherwise, there was really nothing he could do.

In fact, it is the same. If Li Yang's subordinates, whether Li Jing or Bai Qi, give them enough troops to guard one side, Li Yang will not have any worries.

Now Li Yang even regrets why he didn't let the Pluto Army replace the Taishan Army to guard Hulao, so that he no longer needs to worry about Cao Cao.

"Brother, since we have crossed the Yangtze River, can the Spike Legion also cross the Yangtze River and attack Yangzhou?"

Zhao Yun, who had been sitting silently, suddenly stood up and spoke.

Before Li Yang could speak, Zhang Liang on the side said: "After the Spike Legion returned to Xuzhou, they stationed themselves at the Zhenhaijun camp to rest and recuperate. However, according to the intelligence received the day before, Zhao Junrui also deployed additional troops on the other side of the Zhenhaijun camp.

Now I am afraid there are nearly 300,000 horses."

The Zhenhai Regiment is stationed at the estuary of the Yangtze River. In order to prevent the Zhenhai Regiment from sudden attack, the enemy already has 200,000 troops on defense. Li Yang knew this.

"Although the Wolf Fang Army suffered tens of thousands of casualties, it still has 400,000 soldiers. Zhao Junrui only sent an additional 100,000 troops. It seems that he has no extra soldiers in his territory." Li Yang murmured.

"Brother, that's not necessarily the case!" Zhang Liang, who was sitting close to Li Yang, naturally heard what Li Yang said and reminded him: "Brother, don't forget about the fleet that blocked the Zhenhai Navy and the Langya Army at sea."

Li Yang frowned upon hearing this.

"According to Ren Hu's intelligence, the enemy's fleet has no less than 300 warships, and they are all high-level warships. The number of troops is probably no less than 300,000! In addition, according to He Shen's intelligence, there are hundreds of thousands of troops guarding Kuaiji.

Therefore, the enemy’s strength is still quite large.”

"Second brother, what's the countermeasure?" Li Yang asked with a frown.

"What the two generals just said, I also think so. I know Han Xin very well. In terms of ability, he is no less than any of the generals. Moreover, the more troops he has, the higher his combat effectiveness. And now the enemy's army

However, they have more troops than us, and it is difficult to deal with them in a head-on confrontation.

Therefore, I think that there is no need to fight the enemy here, but to send a group of soldiers and horses to directly attack Dantu, and cooperate with the Langya Legion and Zhenhai Legion to capture these 300,000 soldiers and horses before the enemy's reinforcements arrive."

Dantu is located opposite the Zhenhai Navy garrison, where the enemy is garrisoned. If you want the Wolf Fang Legion to break through the Yangtze River, you must first deal with this army.

"It's doable!" Li Yang nodded, "Then, second brother, which general do you think is appropriate to send and how many people to bring?"

Zhang Liang looked at Zhao Yun who was eager to try, and said: "Zi Long is relatively experienced in this matter, and if we deal with Han Xin, we still have to rely on General Li and General Bai."

"Yes!" Li Yang glanced at Zhao Yun and nodded in agreement.

"Therefore, the troops have to travel through the enemy's territory, and the logistics supplies will inevitably not be able to keep up. In addition, the speed must be increased. Therefore, since the cavalry is the main force, a certain suggestion can be made to let Zilong take all the cavalry of the Mad Dragon Legion. However, the cavalry siege is still difficult.

It is relatively lacking, so we still need a general from the Hades Army."

After saying that, Zhang Liang looked at Bai Qi with a smile.

"What the second general said was Gao Shun?"

Zhang Liang smiled and said: "That's right! The camp led by General Gao is the best among the best. No one can match it in attacking a city. I believe that by cooperating with Zilong, we will be able to successfully capture Dan Tu."

'Gao Shun!' Li Yang, who was a little confused at first, suddenly brightened up after hearing the name. After Gao Shun surrendered, he took his bodyguard to the front line to deal with Yuan Shao. He was working under the Hades Army. Li Yang

He secretly wondered how he had forgotten about him.

"How many people are in this camp now?" Li Yang asked aloud.

"Lord, there are nearly ten thousand people!" Bai Qi stood up and reported.

Bai Qi is very clear about the ability of the trapped camp, so he strongly supports Gao Shun's training. If it weren't for the harsh requirements of the trapped camp, there would probably be more people than there are now.
