King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 417

At this moment, on the other side of the Yellow River, Li Lin, Xu Miao, Zhang Yan and others were also discussing the situation of the battle while looking at their own army under intensive construction. Looking at the map in front of them, they all frowned... ………

"My lord! Cao Jun has successfully withdrawn to the south last night, and he should be moving towards the white horse now. If Cao Jun still has self-knowledge, he probably wouldn't come back quickly to confront our army at the Yellow River. Even if he did, it would be too late by then. Our army has already crossed the Yellow River!" Xu Miao looked at the map and analyzed.

"Yeah!" Li Lin nodded, and said, "Jingshan is right. If someone dared to predict, then Cao Jun will definitely not come back, at least not in a hurry. In that case, Cao Cao is so stupid!"

"Did Cao Jun just leave this Henan alone?" Zhao Yun asked doubtfully.

"No!" Li Lin said with certainty, and immediately asked Xu Miao, "How many troops did Cao Jun cross the Yellow River last night?"

"Hmm...about [-]! After all, we have to be cautious and retreat southward quickly, so all the old, weak and wounded soldiers of Cao's army can't be taken away at all. They are all in the city. Our army has surrendered as soon as it arrives. Someone in Cao's army, after being defeated by General Zilong, realized that everything was a lie when they reached the bank of the Yellow River, and they already surrendered to us!" Xu Miao said slowly.

"Fifty thousand? Even if Cao Cao returned to Yanzhou and emptied Yanzhou and Qingzhou, he would still not be able to gather 10 people. How could he save this Yuzhou! But then why would Cao Cao let his own lair be ignored? No, there must be another way!" Li Lin stroked the beard at the corner of his mouth, squinted his eyes and analyzed...

"Master, Cao Jun's navy is still active on the Yellow River, I'm afraid..." Zhao Yun looked at Li Lin and said.

"Zilong don't worry!" Li Lin smiled evilly, "Then Cao Jun's navy will not be able to make a fuss for a few days! Let's build the crossing bridge first, and rest assured that we can cross the Yellow River!"

"No!" Zhao Yun cupped his hands.

"Jingshan, the grain and grass side must be closely supervised. I am sending someone to discuss with Liu He. I am so stupid. This kid sees that now that Cao Cao is defeated, it is very likely that the supply of grain and grass to us will be interrupted. Once we cross the Yellow River, We just can't get back the arrows that leave the string, and the three counties of Sili in Boda probably can't gather much food to maintain our army. We have to mobilize from Youliao and order Mr. Yanfang and my uncle to be Hurry up to raise funds and send reliable people to deliver them, if something goes wrong with the food at this time, it will be fatal in an instant!" Li Lin said worriedly, looking at Xu Miao.

"My lord, don't worry, I will definitely do my best!" Xu Miao cupped his hands.

Li Lin nodded, let the two of them go out, and hurry up to do what they have to do. Only Li Lin and Fang Fang were left in the tent. Li Lin asked in a low voice, "How are Ziyi and Zhao Hu doing? Got news?"

Fang Fang clasped his hands and said, "General Ziyi sent the news, just saying that the time is almost up!" In fact, Fang Fang didn't know the details of what Li Lin said. He was just a place where the news circulated, and Li Lin and The correspondence of other people will not explain the matter clearly, sometimes even the type of code words, even if it is robbed by the enemy's letter halfway, if you don't know the specific inside story, you can't understand it at all...

"Okay! Cao Cao, I don't know why you ran to Yanzhou so reassuringly, and why you didn't care about Yuzhou. With your nature, how could you be so reassuring without any certainty? Although I don't know what clever plan you have waiting for me, But, do you think there is only one way to retreat from Guandu to the south? Ha ha..." Li Lin sneered, looking at the map in front of him playfully...

On the Bohai Sea, hundreds of warships, with twelve main ships as the core, lined up on the sea surface, big and small. On top of the twelve main ships, there was a big flag, white The blue characters on the bottom, the brushwork of dragons and phoenixes, the skills that are rare in the world, writing a big Liao character...

That's right, this is one that hasn't been on the scene for a long time. Li Lin has an army that is said to be special but not special. That is the navy of Marquis Liao. Zhao Hu has been a bandit for so many years, and this army was built by Zhao Hu alone, and it has grown to its current scale. During the battle with Yuan Shao's navy on the Yellow River, his big ship burned down and dressed up, in exchange for The entire army of Yuan Shao's water army was annihilated, and after Li Lin's large amount of capital investment and technological innovation, Zhao Hu has now broken [-] water troops. After Zhao Hu's long-term training, he is even more brave. Especially fighting in the Bohai Sea has long been familiar...

With a big beard on his face, Zhao Hu stood upright on the deck in armor, facing the sea breeze, enjoying the last ray of sunshine brought by the sunset...

"Zhao Hu!" A big man came out from the cabin. With a sound of silver armor, it can be seen that this man is not an idle person. The two short halberds on his back are the most different from him. This man is Tai Shici, but why did Tai Shici follow Zhao Hu to the sea?Could it be that Tai Shici changed to naval warfare?
"Oh? Ziyi! How's it going? Are the soldiers better?" Zhao Hu raised his eyebrows when he heard the voice, and looked back at Tai Shici.

"Well, it's much better. The soldiers are used to riding horses. They are not used to getting on this warship suddenly. After a few days, they have recovered..." Although Tai Shici said so, he was a little pale It is not difficult to see on his face that he is still suffering...

"Here is good, I want my navy to go to the battle tonight. Your soldiers and horses should wait a while when they are on land, and the next battle will be on the field!" Zhao Huxie said with a smile.

"Fart!" How could Tai Shici agree with this? It is certain that the men under his command are not good at water warfare, and they are not very used to water skills. Not to mention the other soldiers, but even if they can’t bear it and are seasick, it’s not enough if they don’t allow themselves to fight on the battlefield. Tai Shici immediately said unwillingly, “Hmph! It's a landing operation, when your navy gets off the ship, it's the same as my men getting off your big ship, what if you can't take it anymore!"

Seeing Tai Shici's rebuttal, Zhao Hu smiled and said, "Hehe, my navy is like a flood dragon on water, but on land, it's still no worse than your soldiers, hum!"

"Then shall we compete tonight?" Tai Shici challenged.

"Compare? Haha... You should see if those Wuhuan people can get up!" Zhao Hu laughed.

"Hmph!" Tai Shici snorted coldly, and did not speak, because he knew in his heart that those Wuhuan people had never even seen the sea, and their feet began to weaken after getting on the boat, and now they are walking straight...

"Report..." A navy soldier knelt down in front of Zhao Hu.

"Speak!" Zhao Hu said with a straight face.

"The former army came to report, and if you don't want to go ahead, Huang County is here!" said the soldier.

"Okay! Order the whole army, stop, wait for dark, and attack Huang County!" Then ordered.

"No!" The soldier rushed out immediately, reporting...

Huang County is the seat of Qingzhou and Donglai County. It is an important place to store grain in Qingzhou. It also passes through Yuan Tan. Tan, Yuan Tan was broken and gave up here to shrink his troops to resist Li Lin's army, so it was taken and controlled by Cao Cao, but the city was still there, and it was still a very majestic city wall. Cao Cao worked hard to manage it. Qingzhou is also one of the best big cities......

But Zhao Hu was not frightened by the size of the city. In Zhao Hu's mind, he only remembered that the yellow line was a low strategy, and there was food in it, at least one hundred thousand shi, and thousands of horses. Desiring, moreover, Li Lin's Zhao family firm had some business dealings in Qingzhou in the past. Although Li Lin quickly withdrew the business after the war, Qingzhou also left some eyeliner. According to the eyeliner, Huang The county guard is a person with a very rough personality, but in such an important town, the guard has about 5000 troops under his command, and there will be about [-] in the city. Zhao Hu is not afraid of the size of the city, but the wise guard. The county guard, the thicker his personality, the better for him...

Ever since Cao Cao acquired the part south of the Yellow River in Qingzhou from Yuan Tan, it has been very peaceful. Liu He has no intention of directly attacking Qingzhou, and the Yellow Turban inside Qingzhou has long been wiped out by Cao Cao, and the established Qingzhou Army, So there has been no war in Qingzhou for a long time, not to mention that the navy came ashore from the Bohai Sea, so Zhao Hu believed in his heart that according to the military discipline of Liu Biao's army, he would be negligent in guarding against it, and his subordinates explained the elite they trained, I have killed countless pirates, and even fought against Yuan Shao's Yellow River navy. It must be easy to fight these Cao troops who belong to training......

While Li Lin was in Fanyin, Li Yang and Cao Jun were fighting fiercely. Cao Jun in the rear was all paying attention to the front line, and even more defenseless against his own navy. In addition, Cao Jun had now controlled the mouth of the Yellow River. He is even more arrogant on the water. If Li Lin hadn't told Zhao Hu a long time ago, the sailors under his command are rare soldiers, which are of great use. There is no need to compete with Cao Jun for control of the water surface above the Yellow River. Otherwise, with Zhao Hu's violent Temper, he has already had a duel with Cao Jun's navy, and Zhao Hu is also very confident to wipe them all out...

Now Zhao Hu is not afraid that he will not be able to attack Huang County, but that there are not enough ships. Zhao Hu raised his head and glanced at his own fleet. There are about 200 ships, and there are more than [-] large sea ships, all of which are under Tai Shici's command. The army, and the horses...
