Eastern Jin military camp, central tent.

Ouyang Shuo glanced at Jia Xu, and Jia Xu understood and said, "Including the 300,000 troops in Shouyang, the enemy troops are 600,000, while our base camp is less than 340,000 navy."

"In terms of local forces, our army has the advantage. Since we are going to fight to the decisive battle, we must take the lead before the enemy's Shouyang army arrives and defeat the enemy on the other side in one fell swoop. If this battle is won, the Shouyang army will not be a concern."

Xie Xuan said in confusion: "If you take the initiative to attack, you have to cross the Feishui River. The Qin army wouldn't be so stupid that they take the initiative to retreat, right?"

Jia Xu nodded and said, "Of course, I won't retreat."

“What should I do?”

"If they don't retreat, our army will attack."

If the person in front of him was not a famous strategist of the Three Kingdoms, Xie Xuan would sneer and say, "Strong attack? I heard it right, how many soldiers would be lost? Can this battle be fought?"

"General, don't be anxious." Jia Xu smiled slightly and said, "Even if our army does not attack forcefully, when the enemy Shouyang army arrives, they must take the initiative to attack forcefully. It is better to take the initiative first. The key is the control of Feishui. It is precisely because of this that the enemy Zhoushan fleet wants to break through the Yashan fleet and enter Feishui first, and want to seize the initiative."

"I see."

Xie Xuan understood that before the decisive battle, the navy of both sides had to compete well.

Xie Shi was still a little worried and asked, "Can the Yashan Fleet win?"

Ouyang Shuo was full of confidence in the Yashan Fleet and said with a smile: "There is more than 90% chance of winning."

"Okay, that's it."

Xie Shi no longer hesitated and immediately made a decision. Jingzhou's victory made him full of confidence in the Yi Ren Legion.

The plan for a decisive battle in advance was decided and a consensus was reached. The five people discussed the details of the battle in detail before they dispersed.

As soon as the discussion ended, the entire Eastern Jin camp took action.

Ouyang Shuo summoned all the lords to report the decisive battle. Whether they wanted to or not, the lords could not object to the decision made by Ouyang Shuo and Xie Shi.

Either join the war or exit the battle map and want to stand by and watch? Don't even think about it.

Of course, there are basically no such boring lords. Everyone led their troops to the battle map. No matter what other purposes they had, the goal of earning merit points was the same.

Since that's the case, there is no reason not to fight.

Huo Qubing officially replaced Xie Shi, served as the temporary commander of the Jin army, commanding 340,000 troops, and Xie Xuan was appointed as the deputy general. After meeting Ouyang Shuo, all the lords handed over the military power one by one.

As for how to arrange troops, it is Huo Qubing's business.

After Xie Shi left office, he was not idle either. As the commander-in-chief, he temporarily recruited tens of thousands of laborers in cities near Feishui, and at the same time he plundered a large amount of wood and transported it to the east coast of Feishui overnight.

During labor, carpenters were mainly used to build floating bridges on the surface of the Feishui River.

The entire military camp became lively in an instant, and the atmosphere before the war was both tense and enthusiastic. The Northern Army wanted to repel the Qin army and recover the rivers and mountains; the Yiren Legion wanted to kill the generals and kill the enemy and make achievements.

…………

The movements of the Eastern Jin camp naturally alarmed the Former Qin Dynasty.

Fu Jian was convinced and frowned a little more. Di Chen and Wu Qi had no choice but to keep cheering Fu Jian up, saying that the Jin army came on its own initiative and could not pass through the Jingshui River.

Even so, Fu Jian still couldn't sleep at night.

Unpleasant things came one by one, which almost collapsed the emperor's confidence.

Di Chen and others were also quite depressed. Except for the smoother they first entered the battle map, they always felt that they were restrained step by step and fell into the rhythm of the enemy, and they were extremely frustrated.

It’s just a little bit that they lack top strategists like Jia Xu.

…………

On the fifteenth day of the battle, the Huaihe River Basin.

Since the war started, the navy, which had not been moved, became the focus of the whole game. Whoever could take control of the water would win the opportunity for war for his side.

The surging water of the Huai River flows endlessly.

Early in the morning, the two fleets confronted each other at the junction of the Huai River and the Fei River.

The Yashan Fleet led the Navy Admiral Yu Dayou, and the Zhoushan Fleet was a retired naval general.

Both have their own merits.

Xiongba was only a second-class marquis, and his troops could be brought into the battle map. In order to earn meritorious points, Xiongba also brought some army. Therefore, the Zhoushan fleet only came to half of the formation, which was half the difference in force.

In addition to the 10,000 naval divisions brought by Xie Shi, the gap in force is even more obvious.

However, when fighting in inland rivers, military strength is not the decisive factor in victory. After all, no matter how many warships are, the only thing that really fights each other is more than a dozen warships in front of the river.

The war started at 8 a.m.

Everyone is old opponent, with no ink traces, and the artillery fire is fired together, and there is almost no tactics. They just bombard each other until the enemy ship is sunk. One ship is sunk, and another ship is added later, and this cycle is repeated.

Since the tactics are not bad, it depends on the quality of the weapons and equipment of both sides.

Both sides are tower ships and warships, the key is artillery.

The Yashan Fleet uses improved P1 artillery, coupled with the help of the flight team, which allows the fleet to gradually gain the upper hand in the battle, forcing the Zhoushan Fleet to retreat continuously.

At around 10 a.m., the entire intersection fell under the control of the Yashan Fleet.

At this moment, Xie Shi led 10,000 naval troops suddenly stepped in from behind, leaned against the Yashan fleet, resisted the firepower in front, and completed the turn with his light hull, and successfully entered the Feishui River.

Although the Zhoushan fleet was anxious, it was entangled by the Yashan fleet and was unable to escape, so it was nothing to do.

At around 12 o'clock in the morning, the Eastern Jin navy entered the Feishui River.

Seeing this, Yu Dayou immediately adjusted his formation and completely blocked the entrance of Feishui, and the fleet turned into a defensive. Seeing that the Yashan Fleet was setting a wire rope across the river, he had no choice but to give up.

Every warship is not easy to come. The Overlord City is no better than the Daxia Dynasty, but it cannot withstand such consumption. They have tried their best, so they do not have to make fearless sacrifices.

In this way, in just one morning, the navy of both sides decided the outcome.

Seeing this, Yu Dayou arranged five tower ships to enter Feishui and assisted the Eastern Jin Navy to completely control Feishui.

…………

The navy was fighting, and the others were not idle.

The labor force that Xie Shi temporarily recruited was built early in the morning on the Feishui River for the army to cross the river. When the Eastern Jin Navy entered the river, the entire project was accelerated in vain.

The Qin army wanted to carry out sabotage, but under the bombing of the flight team, the results were very little. At around 5 pm, the Qin army knew that it could not destroy the floating bridge, so they simply ignored it and focused on rectifying the military.

As evening approaches, fifty floating bridges hover quietly on the surface of the Feishui River.

This night is destined to be sleepless.

…………

On the 16th day of the battle, the sun rose.

The atmosphere of war has gathered to its peak, and some soldiers did not even sleep well due to nervousness. When the sun rose, the military camps on both sides of the Feishui River had already woken up.

The soldiers on both sides got up silently, put on armor, used breakfast, and rushed to the schoolyard to gather.

Navy warships lined up on the banks of the Feishui River. Between the warships and warships, there are temporary floating bridges that connect to the other shore.

On the west bank of Feishui, 300,000 Qin troops were ready to fight and set up combat formations.

According to Wu Qi's arrangement, 50,000 Qin troops were arranged at the end to protect the safety of Emperor Fu Jian. In fact, Wu Qi gave up the use of the 50,000 Qin troops.

The real backbone is still the 250,000 Indies Legion.

The army was arranged along the river bank in turn, with a stern appearance and a strict temperament. Although Wu Qi had only taken over the command of the Yi Ren Legion for only half a month, he had already operated the various units in an orderly manner and was worthy of being a god general.

This time, the Qin army was waiting for labor, but it was convenient for the advantage of the territory.

On the other side, nearly 250,000 Yi Ren Legion were also the leader, and 70,000 Northern Prefecture Army was arranged on the right wing by Huo Qubing as a cover.

At 8 a.m., the horn of war sounded.

“Woo~~~~~”

Accompanied by the distant sound of horns, warships and artillery fired together, the Wei army crossed the river to provide fire cover, and the west bank of the Feishui River was immediately cleared a hundred meters for the Jin army to land.

"Run!!!"

The vast army rushed to the water one after another, preparing to fight to the death with the Qin army.

"kill!!!"

The Qin army was also unwilling to be outdone, and they were all full of fighting spirit.

In just twenty minutes, the front-line troops of both sides had already fought and fought together.

Infantry is still useful under this special terrain.

The temporary floating bridge is naturally not to be expected to be useful. Most of the soldiers have not received relevant training and cannot help but stumble when crossing the river.

From time to time, soldiers fell into the water and were salvaged by the navy.

In this way, the first wave of attacks of the Jin army was easily blocked by the Qin army, which greatly boosted the morale of the Qin army.

Huo Qubing was not discouraged. The subsequent troops continued to cross the river and fought with the Qin army, exerting sacrifices in exchange for war space. The entire west bank of Feishui was suddenly in a state of war.

When the decisive battle was really reached, there was no tactics at all, and it was all up to the commander to make the temporary command.

Wu Qi plays against Huo Qubing, but the two gods are equal.
