In early September, the army led by Wang Qi had arrived on the north bank of the Datong River.
Fifty thousand troops, all stationed.
With the arrival of the army, Xiao Qingzhi quickly arranged it. All the artillery under his command were in position one by one, and began to estimate the distance to the other side of the river and aim at the other side of the river so that when the subsequent soldiers crossed the river, they could suppress the offensive on the other side of the river.
As for Nie Feng, he had already gone to recruit ships to prepare for the next crossing of the river.
After all, war is coming.
Wang Qi, Zhuge Feng and Xiao Qingzhi were already standing on the north bank of the ferry, on a relatively high plateau, looking at the situation on the other side of the Datong River with the help of telescopes.
On the Datong River, the river is relatively wide. The widest place is about 130 paces, and the narrowest place is about 40 paces.
It is not easy to cross the river.
There were still some small boats at the original riverside ferry, specifically responsible for crossing the river. However, as the army appeared on the other side of the river, these private boats had all left long ago and did not dare to join in.
Wang Qi could clearly see the layout on the other side of the river through the telescope.
After Wang Qi looked at it, he looked at Zhuge Feng and Zhou Zishan and said: "The arrangement on the other side of the river is very simple, that is, soldiers are arranged to set up a defense line on the south bank, and there is a large camp in the rear. This situation seems very simple. , it¡¯s not very complicated. It¡¯s just a specific situation that can only be encountered during an attack. Do you think the attack plan needs to be temporarily adjusted?¡±
Zhou Zishan looked at it for a while and said: "Your Majesty, I roughly estimate the length of the defense line on the south bank, which is at least two miles long. As for the defense fortifications on the defense line, they are also one layer after another."
"The defense on the entire front is very stable. Even if we use mortars to suppress it, crossing the river will not be easy. Therefore, this matter still requires the vanguard of the attack to break through and get through in the shortest time. Inside, build defenses. If this cannot be accomplished, this battle will not be easy."
Zhou Zishan said: "The battle across the river is Goguryeo's first line of defense. The opponent will not lose its line of defense easily."
Zhuge Feng chuckled and said confidently: "Your Majesty, I don't agree with Minister Zhou's suggestion. Xianbei, without fighting. Goguryeo, also without fighting. During this battle, we will bombard, and then arrange soldiers to cross the river. It must be a smooth battle, then an easy breakthrough, and success in this battle."
Seeing the disagreement between the two, Wang Qi smiled and said, "I don't know if the fight will go smoothly or not. No matter what, there will be no disagreement in the battle across the river. Now we are just waiting, waiting for everything." The warships gathered together and prepared to attack. A rough estimate is that we should be able to attack tomorrow at most."
Zhou Zishan and Zhuge Feng both nodded.
Both of them are thoughtful.
The overall plan was agreed upon, and without any changes, Wang Qi took Zhuge Feng and Zhou Zishan back to the army and waited quietly.
While the Qi army was waiting, Jin Zaishan on the south bank was already waiting.
Jin Zaishanren went directly to the ferry.
He was on a nearby high ground, overlooking the situation where the Qi army was stationed on the north bank. Jin Zaishan had put in a lot of effort into this battle, especially in the past two days. He was still making constant adjustments to prepare for this battle. Prepare for this battle.
While Jin Zaishan was watching, there was a sound of footsteps.
But it was a middle-aged scribe who came.
The visitor¡¯s name is Jiang Zaidao, who is from the Jiang family of Goguryeo. He is Jin Zaishan¡¯s counselor.
Jiang Zaidao said: "General Jin, Qi's army has arrived and currently lacks warships. It is estimated that they will not attack today. With Qi's speed, it may be tomorrow at the earliest. After a group of warships are raised, they will Start attacking us. At that time, the battle will be decided. We are on the disadvantaged side, so we must always be cautious and not be careless."
Jin Zaishan said: "I understand what the military counselor said. In short, I will definitely go all out, military counselor, I must win this battle. I can only win but not lose. In addition, have all the soldiers in the death camp been selected? ?¡±
"Selected."
Jiang Zaidao nodded solemnly.
The death camp is a major killer weapon prepared by Jin Zaishan.
In this battle, Qi's weapons are stronger and its troops are stronger. Simply relying on the defense line is definitely far from enough. Sufficient death battalion soldiers are needed to deliver a fatal blow to Qi's soldiers at the critical moment.
Jin Zaishan said: "Since the soldiers of the death camp have gathered, there is nothing to worry about. Everything about us has beenPrepared. What we have to do now is to wait for Qi to attack. "
Jiang Zaidao shook his head and said, "General, I think we still have a relatively big flaw."
Jin Zaishan asked: "What's the flaw?"
Jiang Zaidao explained: "Our current army is actually not lacking in food and weapons. What we lack is the combat effectiveness of the army. After all, our military strength is not as good as that of the Qi army. So I think that the real When it comes to fighting, you can arrange dead soldiers, bundle gunpowder, and rush in to explode the people."
Here in Goguryeo, gunpowder existed.
There is gunpowder, although there are no cannonballs, it can be exploded.
Jin Zaishan nodded and said: "Military advisor, that is the last resort. The soldiers of the death camp, their first priority is to fight and kill desperately to resist the charging Qi soldiers."
Jiang Zaidao nodded and agreed with Jin Zaishan's analysis.
Jin Zaishan and Jiang Zaidao took another careful look at the land on the other side of the river, and then walked back.
The two returned to the camp behind and waited quietly.
A day goes by in a blink of an eye.
The next day, it was around Shen time in the afternoon. The sun at this time was shining on people, making it extremely warm and comfortable. It was no longer the blazing heat of July and August.
The sentinel who was staring at the north bank suddenly heard the sound of rumbling war drums, followed by a group of warships. The sentry immediately became nervous and quickly returned to the Chinese army's tent in the rear camp. .
When the soldiers saw Jin Zaishan, they immediately reported: "General, there is movement in the Qi State on the north bank. A large number of warships have gathered, the drums are rumbling, and a battle across the river has begun."
Jin Zaishan stood up and said: "Send the order, the whole army is ready for war."
"yes!"
The soldiers immediately went to convey orders and make arrangements.
With the order implemented, Jin Zaishan walked out of the camp wearing a helmet and armor. He went straight to the defensive positions on the front line, and groups of soldiers quickly gathered.
In addition, all the soldiers were in their respective positions, and all arrangements made by Jin Zaishan were in place.
Everything is ready.
Jin Zaishan stared into the distance, waiting quietly for the Qi army to cross the river. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
