But the fortunes are not as good as people's calculations. Right now, the Qi army is moving south quickly, with an army of [-], and the two armies on the water and roads are advancing side by side. The target is Xiakou, which he is guarding.

If Xiakou is lost, the entire Jingnan states will be in danger.

It may even affect the whole body, causing the Qi army to stand firm in the south of the Yangtze River, and the waterway army to attack Jiankang.

But Li Jiancheng is not Li Shimin after all.He has a lot of literary talents and sages under his command, but not as many generals who are good at fighting are not as many as Li Shimin's.

Right now, the Qi army has set up a formation in Jiangbei, ready to attack directly down the river.

If you advance without a strong general, if you retreat, the whole army will be wiped out.

For the first time in his life, Li Jiancheng regretted the choice he made.

But right now, he has no choice.

Under the suggestion of many "generals" under his command, he changed from passive to active, as long as the Qi army's position is not stable, and before the two armies of water and road are all in place, they will attack the enemy in Chibi, Jiangbei with all their strength.

Chapter 873

On the Yangtze River, there are countless warships lined up in a row, with great momentum.

Among them, a huge building ship is magnificent and mighty.A handsome flag with the word "Li" flutters in the wind, showing the appearance of a dragon flying into the sky, with its teeth and claws.

On the deck of the ship, stood a handsome young man.

The young man stood with his hands behind his back, with extraordinary momentum.In terms of appearance, he is about 30 years old, with fair skin, sharp eyes, and a little bit of arrogance.

This person is none other than Li Jiancheng, Prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

As the heir of a country, he is very conceited in terms of qualifications, ability, and appearance.

Just when Li Jiancheng was proud of the world, a burst of trouble suddenly came from his heart, and his face suddenly became gloomy.

"Damn second brother." Li Jiancheng hated secretly.

In the entire Tang Kingdom, although he was the crown prince and the country's heir apparent, many people believed that Li Shimin was more suitable for this position than himself.He is capable, and his appearance is even more precious.

Although Li Yuan has not changed the candidate for the prince, he can also see his dissatisfaction with Li Jiancheng from a few words.

This time, Li Jiancheng was dispatched in full force, not so much to beat the front of the Qi army, but to taste the taste of the winner, intending to build momentum in the middle school, and let everyone know that Li Jiancheng is not a vegetarian.

As for the strength of Chen Qingzhi, it has nothing to do with him.

"His Royal Highness, in front of you is Qi's Naval Great Village." A lieutenant on the penetration, who had been observing the front just now, had finished observing, trotted all the way to Li Jiancheng's side, and reported.

"Although the Qi army is strong, they never expected that we would take the initiative to attack and sent orders to the various ministries to prepare for an attack."

"His Royal Highness, you can't underestimate the strength of Qi's navy! Since the establishment of Qi's navy, this team has been victorious in every battle. Although our country's navy is imitating the Qi army's organizational system, it is by no means the same in terms of experience and strength. Qi's opponent." The lieutenant persuaded him even more dutifully.

Li Jiancheng frowned slightly, his brows and eyes were full of disdain and said: "The prince is the governor, do you still need you to teach?"

While speaking, Li Jiancheng put his left hand on the saber instinctively, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.

The deputy general didn't dare to say more.Originally, he had disapproved of the decision to attack Qi's navy, and the reason why he spoke was to ask Li Jiancheng to pay attention, at least to be vigilant.But I didn't expect Li Jiancheng to repay his kindness so much that he didn't take what he said seriously at all.

But after thinking about it, they also have [-] sailors. Even if the Qi army is strong, they won't be able to defeat them instantly!

Thinking of this, he immediately straightened his back.

Tang Jun advanced quickly, upstream, at a slow speed, and after hard work, he finally appeared in front of Qi Jun.

"Is the Tang State Navy on the opposite side?" Chen Qingzhi frowned inside the Qi Army Navy's Dazhai.

There had been news from the scouts long ago, and the Tang State Navy on the other side suddenly attacked.As the commander-in-chief of the army, he didn't dare to delay, and quickly ordered all the ministries to enter the combat state.

"It's true that there is a way to heaven, you don't go, and there is no way to hell, you break in. It seems that these Nantang sailors must know today that this tiger's butt is untouchable!" Chen Qingzhi's tone was extremely hard, and there was a cold light in his eyes, The enemy is attacking, no matter how much it is said, it is useless, only a battle can live up to His Majesty's trust.

"Great governor, the last general invites you to fight."

Chen Qingzhi nodded and said, "Beat the drum, and order all the soldiers to prepare for the attack."

"Boom, boom, boom." Following Chen Qingzhi's order, the beating drums sounded again.The warships of the Qi State Navy also changed accordingly.

It slowly opened in a fan shape, like a big net, trying to swallow all the troops of the Southern Tang Dynasty into it.

"What formation is the Qi army?" Li Jiancheng was a little puzzled.It's neither offensive nor defensive. It looks like a wild goose formation, but it's not a wild goose formation.

"The end general doesn't know either."

"The general thinks that they seem to have formed a formation in a hurry. Either they plan to retreat, or they plan to attack and fight."

Li Jiancheng burst out laughing when he heard this.The demeanor he had maintained before also disappeared in an instant.

However, no one dared to despise Li Jiancheng.Because at this moment, everyone was laughing, laughing at Qi Jun's ignorance.

"It seems that the Qi army is also a bunch of idiots, so don't worry at all." The deputy general who reminded Li Jiancheng to be on guard against Qi earlier couldn't help laughing.Shaking his head, he completely let go of the worries in his heart.

The navy of the Qi army has not fought for several years, and it seems that they have completely forgotten how to fight and how to fight.

Just now, if His Royal Highness hadn't asked them to attack at full speed, I'm afraid they would not be able to test the opponent's true strength at this moment.

Such an enemy is really too weak, and weak ones can't stand the attack at all.As long as their sailors move closer and attack at will, they can beat the opponent to pieces.

Everyone seems to think that Datang will undoubtedly win this battle.

But Chen Qingzhi on the other side didn't feel relaxed at the moment, on the contrary, he was a little dignified.

The number of enemy troops is indeed quite large. According to the information obtained by the spies, the Cao army's navy is only in the tens of thousands, but from the present point of view, I am afraid that the Tang army on the other side of the river will be dispatched in full force, leaving no room for it.

At this moment, they exposed the entire hull of the ship and formed a defensive formation.Anyone who is an expert in water warfare will know that the current formation of the Qi army is to maximize the attack power of the naval warships.As long as they attack in one round, the Tang army will definitely be defeated. At that time, the Qi army will go down the river, and they can directly rush to the back of the Tang army and cover up the kill from behind.

At that time, the Tang army will be attacked by the enemy, and the army will inevitably be in chaos, and eventually the army will be defeated.

But these are all the results of Chen Qingzhi's guesses. It is really not easy to swallow the enemy army in one go.

The ships of the two armies were getting closer and closer, and the Qi army took the lead in attacking when there were still 150 steps left in the distance.

The small boats on the two wings quickly went down the river at an extremely fast speed, and directly bypassed the rear of the Tang army.

On the other hand, the thunderbolt chariots on the Qijun building ship and the treasure ship moored in Chibi port quickly fired kerosene bombs.

Like a hailstorm, countless kerosene bombs soared into the air and flew towards the opposite Tang army warships.

Seeing the countless fireballs soaring into the sky, Li Jiancheng's heart twitched.

At this moment, he really wanted to kill those guys who persuaded the war just now.Such an enemy is a weak soldier?Such an enemy is so easy to deal with?

Before he could straighten out his thoughts, the petrol bomb had already landed.Suddenly, flames splashed everywhere, and for a while, many warships of the Tang army were ignited, and soldiers were burned by the flames everywhere on the deck, crying for their father and mother.
