In the second half of the night, the rain gradually became lighter...

To the east of Huaiyin, on the east bank of the Jianghuai Canal, Li Jing led 30,000 troops to ambush here.

As time passed, Gongsun Lan was a little worried, but when she saw Li Jing resting her eyes, she couldn't help but ask: "Sanlang is sure that 10,000 troops of the seventh and eighth two Marines can successfully defeat the Huai Army camp?"

It was a bit risky for 10,000 people to attack the Huai Army camp.

Li Jing did not open his eyes, he was hurrying to rest.

"After our inquiry, we found that there were 100,000 large camps in Huaiyin, of which 50,000 Huai troops and 50,000 civilians. The Huai army planned to mobilize more troops and horses to cross the river to attack Sizhou. At this time, we will attack Huaiyin camps and will attack them unprepared. On a heavy rainy night, ten thousand marines raided the Huai army and civilian camps, causing chaos. The Huai army could not know how many troops were attacking, and the Huai army would not dare to fight at night. It is very likely that they would choose to retreat to Chuzhou and wait for dawn to find out the situation and rectify the troops and horses to fight again. Therefore, our army was buried here, waiting for the Huai army to retreat eastward and cross the canal halfway and attack it, and it would be defeated."

Although it was a risky one, it was a tactical arrangement based on the reaction to the Huai Army.

The combination of raids and ambush is definitely better than the effect of 40,000 people raiding the Huai Army camp together.

"What if the Marines cannot achieve their goals, maybe they will fall into the enemy camp." Gongsun Lan was still a little worried. At this time, she had not seen any movement.

"Planning depends on people, and success depends on heaven." Li Jing said calmly, "There is never a 100% chance of winning in a war. You can only make more plans. If the raided army really fails, there is nothing we can do."

Fortunately, this tormenting wait didn't last long. As dawn approached, the horse raided back to report again. The Huai Army camp was in chaos and the Huai Army was retreating eastward.

Soon, the Huai Army appeared to the west.

At first there was a messy team, but at the end there were large groups of people, followed by flags and flags. Then there were most of the Huai Army gathered together by Gao Yu and others. Although they retreated, the queue was still neat.

Li Jing held up the Qianli Mile Mile and carefully observed Gao Yu's handsome flag.

"Wait a little longer!"

"Wait a little longer!"

Finally, Gao Yu's commanding flag slowly moved across the canal among the Huai army.

Nearly half of the Huai Army crossed the canal, and half of them were on the west bank of the canal.

"It's this time." Li Jing shouted loudly, drew his sword and waved it.

The horn began to sound, and on the east bank, the knights who had been waiting for a long time stepped on their war horses, and the infantry also drew their swords and lifted their spears.

"Prepare for the fight!"

Quick, quick, quick!

Guo Wei quickly ran across his team with his sword, kicking his slow subordinates with his feet, "check all their equipment and prepare for battle." He shouted, "Move quickly." He was already fully armed, and a subordinate who was a little confused in his sleep asked, "What happened?"

"As the King of Qin expected, the seventh and eighth armies of the Marine Corps had already raided the Huai Army camp, and the Huai Army was retreating to Chuzhou."

In the morning light of dawn, Li Jing's army was like a slowly blooming steel rose, with spikes shining.

The central army was commanded by Lin Wei, and the central army commander Lin Wei had raised flags on the east bank of the canal.

Lin Wei commanded two infantry soldiers to place 10,000 troops in the middle. The surprise soldiers were lined up in a square formation with shields and guns in one hand, and the other was square iron shields erected like walls, and thousands of spears bloomed like flowers. On the left and right were jumping infantry holding battle axes, horizontal swords, and group cards. In the middle were crossbowmen. The crossbowmen were lined up in a square formation of bows and crossbows under the protection of surprises and jumping soldiers, calmly debugging the bowstrings, taking out the arrows in the pot, and inserting them into the wet land in front of them.

Behind the shield wall of the surprise soldier, there were two thousand Mo Dao's hands, wearing rope-shaped steel armor inside, covering the whole body of plate armor, and a red battle robe on the outside, wearing a long silk cloak, holding a thirteen-foot double-bladed Mo Dao. Five hundred light cavalry surrounded Lin Wei, the commander of the Yingyang Army Li Wei, and the commander of the Leopard Cavalry Qiu Shengong and other generals.

The left wing was full of cavalry, with a total of about 10,000 cavalry, and was commanded by Zeng Yuanyu, the governor of the rear army.

More than half of the cavalry gathered here, like a huge iron armored steel fist. Zeng Yuanyu commanded, and the two cavalry were Li Cunxiao's Black Flag Army and Wang Yanzhang's Feather Cavalry. From a distance, you can see the black flag of the Black Flag Army and a white horse with ribs embroidered on the flag. One black and one white, but it is so coordinated.

Li Jing was in a slope later, surrounded by reserve teams, half of the cavalry and half of the infantry, and as many as five thousand people. Li Jing always liked to arrange reserve teams when fighting. Now Li Jing is no longer suitable for charging at the front line, so in this battle, Li Jing commands the reserve team behind him, and is in a high ground where he can see the battle situation. Depending on the situation, the reserve headquarters will be put into the place where he needs it most.

Living on a high slope, not only can he see the entire battlefield, but also on the high slope where Li Jing is, the entire army can also watch the commander of the entire army from afar. Under the high flag of the commander, Li Jing is still majestic and dazzling.

Li Jing's armor was eclipsed in comparison to the golden armor collected by Emperor Li Yan. His cloak was made by Princess Xihe and his workshop and hired the best craftsmen. It was made of countless gold threads. It seemed thin, but it was so heavy that it would not float up when charging. When you sit on the horse, your long back swing almost completely blocked the mount's hind legs. This cloak is comparable to a good piece of armor, and it is difficult to penetrate even if it hits an arrow.

With the full-coverage copper armor painted with the blue dragon pattern, the golden light shines, which is extremely eye-catching. Although wearing such armor may become the target of everyone if you are on the front line, Li Jing rarely needs to rush to the front line now, sitting in the back. Wearing this dazzling armor often allows soldiers on the front line to discover his position as soon as possible, but it can play a better motivational role.

At this time, Guo Wei had already heard the enemy's panic shouts.

He remembered that last time he was in Hejian, Hebei, there were almost a fair battle, but there were more people from Hebei, but the general was now confident and calm. His Highness, wearing the golden armor, sat on the high war horse, located under the flying flag of the commander, and the long sword unsheathed in his hand was shiny. He remembered that the general's huge silver wolf, like a pony, would always guard him, as if he would jump up and roar and bite him at any time.

After the raid in the first half of the night and then the withdrawal marches in the second half of the night, the Huai Army was a little exhausted at this time. Especially many Huai Army fled in a hurry when they were attacked, with uneven armor and even no swords and guns. After Gao Yu issued a military order to temporarily withdraw into Chuzhou, these people ran east. Seeing that they had crossed the canal, Chuzhou City was not far ahead, and they relaxed for a moment.

Who knew that at this time, an ambush would suddenly appear in front of you.

I have to say that Li Jing's arrangement is extremely cruel. If 40,000 troops raided the Huai Army camp at the beginning, too many troops would cross the river together, it might be difficult to cross for a while, which would easily lead to the discovery of the Huai Army. More importantly, the raid in the night was not very different from 10,000 people. It is not difficult to disrupt the other party's camp, but it is difficult to chase and annihilate the 50,000 Huai Army who was with 50,000 people in the vast rainy night.

Li Jing only sent 10,000 troops to attack the camp, but led 30,000 people to guard the road that the Huai Army must pass. However, he first destroyed his morale, then disrupted his formation, and then half-matched the ambush and gave a fatal blow.

On the right, Li Cunxiao and Wang Yanzhang, two famous generals of His Highness, stood under their own banners and were ready to go. A new recruit who had only added in Songzhou looked at them, "They are so fierce, will they be the first to attack?"

Guo Wei glanced at him and smiled and said, "No, they will be the last attack. When you see them attack, it means that the battle has secured the victory."

In the Qin army, there is a rumor about the two generals Wang Yanzhang and Li Cunxiao. The rumor is that when the iron spear general and the tiger-killing general are dispatched, it means that the battle is about to be won. This is not only because the two led the few heavy cavalry and the most brave lancers in the army, but also because the two disciples of His Highness have always been in direct battle. When they were dispatched, they expected that the battle would not change much, and they just trampled on their moods.

"They are the sharpest sword lights!"

Li Cunxiao's Black Flag Army was the only heavy cavalry in the entire army, with four battalions of armored cavalry. The armor and war horses were as black as their military flags. The armor was painted black and thick steel plates, without any heralds or decorations, and only traces of long-term and vigorous use. Their armor covered the whole body, wrapped around the head, hands and feet, revealing only breathing holes and windows. Their main weapon was a huge horse spear of four feet, which was precious and sharp, and the secondary weapon was a two-handed giant sword and a two-handed battle axe. Their horses were also pitch black, like black charcoal. They were not leather armor, but iron armor. These war horses were all the best horses, with extremely strong explosive power and extremely strong weight bearing.

Li Cunxiao had the same equipment as his commander, but his main weapon was a muddy iron spear weighing dozens of kilograms. The muddy iron spear was held in his hand, as relaxed as an ordinary person holding a wooden stick. At this moment, he had already put on armor with the Black Flag Army and sat next to the war horses, making preparations before the war, his eyes full of desire for battle.

On the right wing, here is the canal to the west and the Huai River to the north.

Li Jing said that he had not arranged troops to guard this triangle area at all.

But in secret, the commander drove to the canal estuary and conveyed the latest military orders to more than 5,000 navy troops hidden in the reed marsh.

"The Qin King's Army Order, after the battle begins, the navy immediately goes down the canal and cut off the retreat route between the Hehuai Army!"
