Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 762

The estuary of the Hoi An River is the closest port to the capital of Lin Yi. A few years ago, Wang Shi's merchant ship was detained in Hoi An Port.

The river got deeper and wider as it went east, and there were hundreds of garrisons in the port. Ou Jin suddenly felt that he was lucky, and Lan Yuan ran to a dead end.

Ou Jin intends to seize Lanyuan to negotiate with Lantian. Shi Xie is willing to spend money as a businessman these years. Let the wealth flow into Linyi.

Thinking of this, Ou Jin felt that his body was light, and the pony under him became more vigorous.

When he was about to arrive at the port, several elephants chasing past suddenly ran back, Spirit Snake General Fant waved wildly at Ou Jin.

"Have you caught it?" Ou Jin was overjoyed and urged his horse forward.

Unexpectedly, the war elephant ran back as if out of control, several guards in Qu Jin couldn't dodge in time, they were knocked off their horses by the war elephant running back, and one of them was directly trampled into a pulp, making Qu Jin's obese body tremble in fright.

At this time, Fanxi came to control and calm the mad elephant, and then brought his brother Fante to see Ou Jin.

"The war elephant was frightened and ran wildly, accidentally hurting your guards, please be punished by your majesty." The Fan brothers clasped their fists in pleading guilty.

Was trampled into mud by an elephant and accidentally injured?Ou Jin had to rely on the Fan brothers at this time, so he dared not and could not blame them. He comforted them and said: "Elephants are always animals, and it is normal to be disobedient occasionally, but haven't these dozens of them been trained? Will something go out of control?"

"Brother, let's talk about it." Fanxi nodded.

Fante nodded and clasped his fists and replied: "Actually, beasts are like people, they will be afraid of unknown things, and they will be more afraid of big ones. Just now we saw dozens of giant sea ships at the port of Hoi An, which moved like mountain islands. , the war elephants lost control because of panic."

"When will there be a ship in Hoi An Port?" Qu Jin was talking to himself, his eyes widened suddenly, and he exclaimed, "Is it a ship from Jiaozhou? Has the port fallen?"

Vatican nodded and smiled bitterly: "It seems that there are hundreds of ships, which are several times larger than the previous Guangzhou merchant ships. The loss of the port is certain."

Ou Jin patted his forehead, "I finally know why the four northern cities are indifferent. These cunning Han troops came from the sea. They now have such powerful sea ships. Linyi has encountered the biggest crisis since the founding of the country."

"Your Majesty, don't be discouraged. With the last general's army of war elephants, we will surely ensure the continuity of the Linyi Kingdom." Fanxi patted his chest and promised.

"Well said, I have an elephant army in Linyi, which is not in the Central Plains. As long as the scale of the elephant army is maintained and expanded, it may not be afraid of those Han people who come from afar, but you have to send the emperor to command on the back of the elephant, otherwise you will not be able to fight again. Seeing something strange will cause chaos, which will affect our march too much." Ou Jin kindly reminded.

"The general will obey." Fanxi clasped his fists.

"My lord, what shall we do now?" Fant asked curiously, frowning.

Ou Jin pinched the base of his nose and concentrated on thinking. The main force of the Han army was driven to the north of the Hoi An River.

Just when Qu Lian was frowning, the scout sent the battle report in time: "Report to Your Majesty, the Han army crossed the Hui'an River and fled north for more than ten miles, and finally set up camp at the rocky beach."

"It's God's help. If the main force of the Han army moves towards the Hoi An River Port and merges with the huge warships in Jiaozhou, even if we can't defeat our war elephants in the end, we can escape the battlefield through sea ships, but now we have no chance. , I’m not familiar with the terrain, hahaha.” Ou Lian laughed wildly.

Fante looked excited, and he added with a smile: "Ten miles north of Hoi An Port, the seaside locations are all cliffs, and there is no way for Han Chinese ships to meet them. An Giang blocked the land passage between Hoi An Port and the rocky beach, and the main force of the Han army was forced to retreat to Nanhengshan, and the narrow valley mouth of Nanhengshan is more suitable for elephants to crush."

"Hahaha, the hero sees the same thing, immediately send an order to cross the river, and they are camping on the rocky beach, isn't General Spirit Snake going to show his hand?" Ou Lian smiled knowingly.

"The general will obey." Fante clasped his fists and nodded.

Ou Jin left 200 people to watch on the south bank, and personally led the last [-] elite Zhan people to cross the river at dusk, and moved to the predetermined location to camp against the water.

At night, the big tent on the rocky beach was brightly lit. Lan Yuan arrived at the north bank by boat while the Zhan people were crossing the river. When he was at the port, he thought of a way to repel the Zhan people's war elephants, and Yu Fan also rushed from Lurong The rocky beach came to meet, and he also brought a strategy to defeat the enemy.

After the discussion in the military tent, everyone had a knowing smile on their faces, and suddenly the scouts brought back information about Zhanren crossing the river.

Lan Yuan clapped the case and said joyfully: "Zhanren doesn't know the art of war and stands in the water with his back. He is looking for his own death. Tomorrow I will capture Qu Company alive to repay the humiliation of being chased away by elephants today."

Gao Shun joked with a smile: "If Boyang hadn't gone to the port, he would definitely not have come up with a strategy to destroy the enemy. Being chased by an elephant this time is not a bad thing."

"Even if I can't figure it out, isn't Prefect Yu also able to do it?" Lan Yuan shook his head lightly.

Yu Fan cupped his hands and said humbly: "Young general, this is just the icing on the cake."

"Wait a minute, I remember that the Marquis of Huaiyin once won a big victory with his back, but why did Boyang say that Zhanren doesn't know the art of war?" Gao Ling suddenly realized.

Lan Yuan explained with a smile: "Father once told me in detail about fighting to the death. The Marquis of Huaiyin used this strategy in fact very dangerous. In addition, he also had a strategy of "luting the enemy to go deep, motivating the enemy, pulling the banner and changing the banner, and attacking from both sides." In the end Being able to win is due to the timing, location, and people, and using it alone is tantamount to asking for a dead end."

Gao Ling looked confused, and murmured: "So that's how it is."

Gao Shun frowned, "The art of war is a dead thing, and the specific situation should be used flexibly. How can you be so sure about dead things, and learn from Boyang's side in the future. I don't want my son to be a reckless man."

"Understood." Gao Ling's cheeks were flushed by the criticism, and he said to himself that I haven't had the crown ceremony yet, and I'm not the commander in chief of the army.

"Tomorrow there will be a tough battle, everyone go back to the camp to rest first, you have to get up and prepare at dawn, Yuanfeng (Gao Ling) stays in the main tent, I have something to discuss with you." Seeing this, Lan Yuan rescued Gao Ling.

"Wei." The generals clasped their fists and left.

Everyone left gradually, Lan Yuan comforted Gao Ling a few words, and then dragged Gao Ling to his feet and fell asleep.

At midnight in the middle of the night, there was a strong wind on the quiet rocky beach, and the sound of musical instruments seemed to be hidden in the sound of the wind. Lan Yuan and Gao Ling sat up almost at the same time.

"There seems to be movement outside the camp. I have to go to each camp to have a look." Lan Yuan frowned.

"The wind is indeed different tonight. Boyang, you wait in the big tent, or the general will go to patrol the camp on your behalf." Gao Ling pressed Lan Yuan's calf, and a carp stood up straight.

Gao Ling took down the saber from the big tent wall, and suddenly felt something alive at his feet.

Hiss
"There are snakes."

With a flash of coldness, Gao Ling shouted and drew his sword, swinging the green snake at his feet into two pieces.
