    Sifang Prefecture, Qianjue Ling, Jingjiang City.  Jingjiang City is located on the border of Sifang Prefecture, across the river from Zhongzhou and Qinghe Prefectures. A long stretch of Jingjiang River and Weihe River separate these three states, forming a fertile and economically developed Jingjiang Delta basin.  Jingjiang City is located in the center of this triangular river basin.  Jingjiang City is not actually a big city. It is only the size of a medium-sized town at best. However, as the intersection of two rivers, its geographical location is extremely advantageous. The merchant ships that go down the river every day in the upper reaches of Jingjiang River and Weihe River can be said to be  There are countless merchant ships, and these merchant ships will definitely stop for a rest when passing through Jingjiang City. Therefore, a large number of merchants and materials poured into Jingjiang City, making Jiangjing City's business extremely prosperous and developed. It can be said that it is a very wealthy city.  Therefore, the Jingjiang City watershed has been an important granary and taxation place for the Tianfeng Kingdom since ancient times. It can continuously transport countless grains and coins to the kingdom every year. At the same time, the geographical location of Jingjiang City is also the north gate of the capital of Zhongzhou. Therefore, in the past dynasties  The kings of the kingdom attach great importance to this city and have always sent heavy troops to garrison the city. Moreover, because of the natural dangers of the two rivers, Jingjiang City's own defense is also extremely powerful. It is difficult for ordinary troops to capture the city.  of.  Since the allied forces of Tianxing and Tianchen invaded the Tianfeng Kingdom, although Prince Jingchou had quickly captured Sifang Prefecture, he still had not attacked the hard core of Jingjiang City because once he came, Prince Jingchou wanted to  Go to Tianqing Prefecture as soon as possible. If you launch a large army to attack this city, it will probably take a long time, and you will probably suffer heavy losses. Secondly, Jingjiang City relies on the natural protection of the two rivers.  There are also heavy troops garrisoned.  After two items, Prince Jingchou finally gave up attacking the city.  Instead, he led his army to the west. As for this city, he planned to capture Tianqing Prefecture, kill Xiao Tianci, and then come back and take care of it slowly.  After the failure of Prince Jingqiu, Xiao Tianci directly led Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, Gao Shun, Pang De and an army of 400,000 to the Shanyue Prefecture and Sifang Prefecture.  Finally, we arrived outside Jingjiang City, facing Jingjiang City across the wide Jingjiang River.  An army of 400,000 people set up camp on the edge of Jingjiang River. Since Xiao Tianci currently does not have a naval force in his hands and is not very clear about the situation in Jingjiang City opposite, Xiao Tianci did not act rashly, but arranged for manpower to go to nearby fishing villages to purchase goods.  While crossing the river in a small boat, he asked people to contact the Shadow Guard spies hidden in Jingjiang City, hoping to get all the current information in Jingjiang City.  On the second day after setting up camp, Xiao Tianci received news from the spies in Jingjiang City, and had a basic understanding of the entire Jingjiang City situation, troop deployment, and generals.  There are now a total of 100,000 troops garrisoned in Jingjiang City.  The general who defended the city was Zhang Poyue, the Marquis of Wucheng who was stationed during the reign of Emperor Longsheng. This Marquis of Wucheng, Zhang Poyue, possessed innate top-notch skills.  He is only in his early forties this year, but he has already experienced several wars. He has won the title of the kingdom with his solid military exploits. It is said that this person is rigorous in military use but not rigid. His vision is extremely precise and he can achieve very accurate positions.  As a result, he was able to thrive in this officialdom and prospered smoothly.  This time when the Huang family came to power, Wu Chenghou also made a very wise choice. He immediately surrendered to the Huang family and showed his loyalty. Therefore, he remained standing despite the several purges after the Huang family came to power.  , firmly occupying the oily place of Jingjiang City.  In addition, Xiao Tianci also learned from the intelligence that there is a small military camp upstream of Jingjiang City, called Baimajin, where a naval force of 30,000 people is stationed, with ten large warships and medium-sized warships.  There are thirty ships, and countless small assault boats. As a branch of the army, the main use of Baimajin's navy is that if an enemy crosses the river to attack Jingjiang City, their navy will  Driving a warship down the river, he launched an attack on the enemy troops attacking the city from the river.  The guard of Baima Jin is Zhang Poshan, the younger brother of Wu Chenghou Zhang Poyue. His strength is about mid-level innate, but compared to his brother, Zhang Poshan's ability is weaker, so that's why  Choose to become the most underappreciated navy general in the kingdom.  Regarding the situation of Jingjiang City, Xiao Tianci had already asked all the generals around him to take a look. Xiao Tianci, who was standing by the Jingjiang River, frowned and looked at the Jingjiang City built along the river across the river, and slowly fell into deep thought.  This Jingjiang City is indeed a very hard nut to crack. With the natural danger and huge defenders, if the 400,000 troops on his side attack hard, the gains will definitely outweigh the losses. In the end, even if they are captured, they will suffer heavy losses. This is something Xiao Tianci is absolutely unwilling to do.  have witnessed.  The four generals standing behind him were also lost in thought, thinking about how to capture Jingjiang City.  "Everyone, in your opinion, how should we attack this city and minimize our losses?" After a moment, Xiao Tianci turned his head, looked at the faces of the four generals, and asked.    Zhao Yun, Gao Shun and Pang De remained silent. This Jingjiang City is indeed a difficult problem. It is really difficult to capture this city at a very small cost.  "My lord, actually we have to face two major problems if we want to capture Jingjiang City." At this time, Zhang Liao spoke. He glanced at Xiao Tianci and said lightly.  "Oh, Wen Yuan, have you figured out a way? Tell me." Xiao Tianci's eyes lit up when he heard Zhang Liao speak, and he asked eagerly.  "I haven't thought of a way yet, but I can talk about the main difficulty in attacking the city." Zhang Liao shook his head and said: "If we want to capture this city, the only thing before us now is to cross the river first. But if  It is definitely unrealistic for all our 400,000 troops to cross the river. First, we are not well prepared and do not have sufficient tools to cross the river. Even if we collect ships from nearby fishing villages, it will be a drop in the bucket. Moreover, all our soldiers are army soldiers.  Fighting in the water is very unfamiliar, and launching an siege on the river will definitely not work. Secondly, the enemy's 30,000 naval troops in Shirakamajin upstream are also a huge threat, even if we gather enough ships to cross the river to accommodate 400,000 people.  If we cross the river to attack the city, we will also encounter a strong blockade from the 30,000 navy troops on the river. If our soldiers fight against other navy troops on the river, they will definitely not be their opponents. I am afraid that the casualties will be even greater.  "Yes, Wen Yuan, you are right. These two points are indeed huge problems. If we don't find a way to solve them, there is no way we can capture Jingjiang City." Xiao Tianci nodded and agreed with Zhang Liao.  At the same time, he stretched out his hands to rub his forehead, and fell into deep thought again.  The five people just stood there by the river. No one gnawed or spoke. All they could hear was the rushing sound of the ferocious river water lapping against the river bank.  "Wenyuan, maybe we can do this." Suddenly Xiao Tianci seemed to have thought of something, clapped his hands and shouted.  "Oh, my lord, do you have an idea?" The four generals standing behind Xiao Tianci suddenly raised their heads and all looked at Xiao Tianci.  "Well, I have an immature idea." Xiao Tianci nodded and said, "Maybe we can do this. Aren't they divided into two places to support each other? We can send a small force to kill Baima Jin directly, and then  Let the large army wait here. If Zhang Poyue sends troops to support Baimajin, we will cross the river and attack the city. If Zhang Poyue does not move, we can also wipe out the 30,000 enemy navy of Baimajin.  , to remove this hidden danger." "My lord, your idea is good, but I have a problem." At this time, Zhao Yun said: "If the enemy army goes to support Baima Jin, our remaining large forces will cross the river to attack the city.  , There will definitely not be enough ships, so what should we do? If the large army cannot cross the river, the small group of soldiers and horses in the past will be of no use." "Yes, General Zhao is thoughtful, but this goes back to what I just said.  When those two difficulties arise, we will definitely not have enough tools to cross the river, which restricts our plan." Zhang Liao nodded and agreed.  "Then what should we do? Are we just going to watch Jingjiang City retreat?" Xiao Tianci said anxiously, a little irritably.  "My lord, actually the method you just thought of is not bad. If you change it, it might be a clever way to attack the city." At this time, Zhang Liao said suddenly.  "How to change it? Wen Yuan, tell me quickly." Xiao Tianci asked quickly after hearing this.  "It's very simple. It's better to attack Baimajin and let all the large troops go. However, the number of ships collected must not be many, so we can only send a small group of elite troops to cross the river on boats to attack Baimajin and the reinforcements in Jingjiang City.  Before coming to support, we must capture this place and wipe out the enemy's 30,000 naval troops. Then we will seize their warships and transport the large troops down the river to attack Jingjiang City." Here Zhang Liao paused and took a sip.  He pursed his lips and continued: "At that time, with the power of the warships, we will definitely be able to attack Jingjiang City with twice the result with half the effort." After hearing Zhang Liao's words, Xiao Tianci's eyes lit up, he clapped his hands and said, "Wen Yuan's method is good, as long as we capture it  If the enemy's warships are used, it will be much easier for us to attack Jingjiang City. Yes, yes, that's what we will do." "My lord, who are you going to recruit to lead the army to attack Baimajin this time?  There shouldn't be too many fishing boats, so there are even fewer soldiers that can be transported to Baimajin to participate in the battle. Even if they are all elite soldiers, there are still 30,000 enemy sailors in Baimajin." At this time, Zhao Yun asked directly.  As soon as he finished speaking, several generals looked at Xiao Tianci with longing eyes. Including Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Pang De and others all wanted to take over this job.  Xiao Tianci was stunned for a moment, glanced at the generals in front of him, and finally rested his gaze on Zhang Liao, with a smile on his lips and said: "Let Wen Yuan go this time, Bai MajinBaima Jin Hey, I hope Wenyuan can create a miracle that will shock Xiaoyaojin in this world.  " Zhang Liao looked slightly excited after hearing this. He clasped his hands and bowed to Xiao Tianci: "Liao will definitely live up to my lord's expectations.  "(To be continued)
