On the first day of May, in the afternoon, the south bank of the Dading River.

The more fierce the attack, the greater the resistance encountered, which made him more and more sure that the Tartar people were not fighting alone, and there must be an army of Middle-earth behind the Tartars, so he ordered all the troops to attack with all their might at any cost, and if they could seize the Jinkou tidal flats before the reinforcements arrived, then in a battle tomorrow, their own side would definitely have a certain advantage.

At dusk, Izumi Baicao led his army to the battlefield and rendezvous with Shomuro.

After carefully listening to Shaomurlin's description of today's battle, Quan Baicao frowned deeply, and asked eagerly, "Can there be scouts who went deep into the northeast foot of Jiangnan Mountain and even the front line of Yanshui to inquire about the military situation?" Do we have an up-to-date understanding of the enemy's situation? ”

Shomuro Lin shook his head and said worriedly, "We have sent a large number of scouts, but so far, no news has come back, and no scouts have returned. There is only one possible explanation for the anomaly, that the enemy was not only fierce but also that the number of troops is beyond our imagination. ”

Quan Baicao pondered for a long time and shook his head, "It doesn't make sense. As far as we know, even if the tribes on both sides of the Obscure River pour out, there will be tens of thousands at most, and the Middle Earth division has traveled a long distance, and there is a serious shortage of grain and grass, and at most there will be no more than 20,000 horses. It was on the basis of this inference that General Otoji made up his mind to take the initiative to attack, to attack instead of defending, to attack the enemy's shortcomings with his own strengths, to drag the enemy on both sides of the Dading River at any cost, and finally to bring the enemy down and defeat him. Our inferences may not be credible, but there is no doubt about Shogun Otoji's inferences. ”

Shaomurin nodded, "Tomorrow, you and I will join forces to attack, and the truth should be discovered." ”

On the second day of the fifth month, the Goguryeo army was like a rainbow, and nearly 20,000 soldiers launched round after round of attacks on the north bank of the Dading River like a tide.

Considering that Gao Huzheng was leading the dragoon army to gallop and his own reserve forces were sufficient, Li Fengyun decisively put the Khitan left army into the battlefield, and ordered Yelu Tieli, Dahe Mohui and Naiman Dupan to lead their headquarters to control the strings and reinforce from the left, center and right.

The two sides fought bloodily, and the Goguryeo people were not afraid of casualties, and sacrificed their lives to defend their homeland and country, while the Andong army occupied the geographical advantage, took advantage of the danger of the river, and used their own military superiority to launch round after round of massacres against the landing enemy.

That night, the anxious Etoji Wende received a letter from Shomuro Lin and Izumi Hyakusa. Today, our own tireless offensive is like a tide, and the enemy desperately resists at any cost, fighting fiercely for a day, our own casualties of more than 3,000 soldiers, blood stained the Dading River, still failed to seize the opposite bank of the tidal flats. Based on today's battle and the observation of scouts on the edge of the battlefield, Shaomuro Lin and Izumi Baicao deduced that the enemy's strength did not exceed 30,000, but they did not find the Middle-earth army, and the banners they saw were all the Yan and Donghu species, and there must be a mystery in this.

Shomuro Lin and Izumi Baicao pleaded with Etoji Wende that since their own attack had already begun, and the enemy had taken the bait and was fighting with all their might, then it was natural for them to send reinforcements to the Dading River again, and strive to gain superiority in strength to win the initiative on the battlefield, gradually achieve the campaign goal, and at the same time minimize their own casualties.

After a little weighing, Etoji Wende agreed to the request of Shomuro Lin and Izumi Hyakusa. The war has already begun, and the enemy's intentions are basically clear, and the enemy is sure to attack, and is eager to fight, and wants to fight quickly, then the enemy will do the opposite, that is, to fight a stalemate with the enemy, delay and consume the opponent, and finally drag down the opponent.

Yizhi Wende ordered Shi Xin to lead another army to the Dading River for reinforcements.

Yizhi Wende wrote to King Gao Yuan to report on the development of the war situation. He also wrote to Jiang Yiwei, asking him to take into account the Qingchuan defense line while sticking to the Yalu water defense line, and give strong support to the Qingchuan battlefield at a critical moment. In order to reduce the defensive pressure on Pyongyang, the Cheongcheon defense line should stop and hold back the invading enemy forces at any cost.

On the second day of the fifth month, late at night, Gao Hu arrived at the city of Huicheng with the dragoons.

After the fierce battle, the generals of the armies were full of fighting spirit, especially Tie Li and other chieftains, who witnessed and experienced all kinds of clans working together to fight side by side, and their trust in Li Fengyun and the Anton Army was greatly improved.

"Judging from the development of the battle situation, the enemy may continue to increase his troops." Li Fengyun stood in front of the map, personally summarized and analyzed the gains and losses of today's battle, and then made a conclusion, "The reason why there is this judgment is because the enemy is attacking the enemy's shortcomings with his own strengths. Our shortcomings are obvious, long-distance running, no food and grass inside, no reinforcements outside, so there is a shortage of food and grass, the number of troops is limited, we can only use war to feed the war, a quick victory, and the enemy is the opposite, there is enough food and grass, there are many generals, there is enough time to stalemate with us, so the development of the war situation is that the enemy will plan first, first take advantage of our eagerness to fight, first drag us down, do not give us the opportunity to burn, kill and plunder under the city of Pyongyang, and then continue to increase troops, stalemate, and fight a stalemate. In this way, we will inevitably fall into the crisis of collapse if we run out of food and grass, and as a result, we will be dragged down alive by the enemy. ”

"Fortunately, our reinforcements are coming, and our advantage in strength is rapidly expanding, but the enemy does not know, so we also come up with a plan."

Li Fengyun pointed to Huicheng on the map, "We are besieging the city to send reinforcements." Tomorrow, we will fight fiercely at the Dading River for another day, and then look at the development of the battle situation, if the enemy increases the number of troops again, it is enough to prove that our judgment is correct, so that when the enemy attacks with all his strength the day after tomorrow, we pretend to be invincible, retreat with the camera, lure the enemy to the city of Huicheng, and then surround it on all sides, encircle and annihilate it. ”

Li Fengyun looked up at the generals in the tent, and said solemnly, "This is a hard battle, a bloody battle, as long as we win this battle, the Qingchuan defense force will be hit hard, they can only trap the city, and we control the initiative on the battlefield, and then we can surround Qingchuan and cut off the connection between Pyongyang and Yalu Shui, so that we can kill Pyongyang to the east, and outflank Yalu Water to the west, and there is no suspense in the victory of the Third Eastern Crusade." ”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the tent suddenly rose, and the victory or defeat of the first battle of Dading River directly determined the victory or defeat of the Third Eastern Crusade, which was of great significance, and it required all the soldiers and soldiers to unite as one to fight to the death.

On the third day of the first month of May, the two sides continued to fight fiercely in the Dading River, the Goguryeo people on the south bank gave up their lives to die, and went forward one after another, never dying, while the Jin people on the north bank could not hold on, and from time to time the defense line was broken through, although they tried their best to launch a counterattack, but the fatigue has been revealed, and the defeat has come out, which makes the Goguryeo people feel more and more vigorous, and the offensive is more and more fierce, and the number of times to break through the opponent's defense line is increasing.

When the sun was setting in the west, Shi Xin led reinforcements to the battlefield and joined Shaomurin and Quan Baicao.

The three generals discussed it and decided to stop the battle at dusk, so that the soldiers who had been fighting continuously could rest for a night, and early tomorrow morning, the three armies would launch the most fierce attack on the opponent's enemy.

That night, in the expectation of Li Fengyun and the generals, the strongest main forces of the Anton Army, the Tiger Ben Army and the Fengyun Army, arrived on the battlefield, and nearly 20,000 soldiers of the infantry army arrived, which made the Xuanfeng Ma Army, which had been exhausted from hard fighting for days, ecstatic and jubilant.

Guo Ming, Xu Shisan, Zhong Xin, and Cao Kun met with Li Fengyun and told Li Fengyun a good news, three days ago, outside the city of Longlin, Han Shige and Luo Yi, the general of Wu Benlang who came from the other side of the Yalu River, met with the two armies, and then traveled south day and night, and there was still a day left before Huicheng.

"Luo Yi?" Li Fengyun was pleasantly surprised. Luo Yi's appearance shows that Cui Hongsheng has led the Xuanfeng army to Yalu Water, and he sent Luo Yi to travel long distances to support the Anton Army, which is to show his determination to support Li Fengyun.

"Ming Gong, the current situation is very favorable to me." Guo Ming said, "General Cui is in Bo Shan City on the west bank of Yalu Water, so as long as we capture Qingchuan, we can form a front and rear attack with it, and with the cooperation of General Cui, we can tear apart or even destroy the Yalu Water defense line, so as to open up the connection between the two armies and obtain a steady stream of support from grain and grass." ”

Li Fengyun nodded and asked, "How many people did Luo Yi bring?" ”

"Twenty-seven regiments of the five prefectures, more than 5,000 horses, are all elite guards of the border towns in western Liaoning." Guo Ming hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Ming Gong, do you know anything about Luo Yiqi?" ”

Li Fengyun smiled slightly, knowing what Guo Ming was worried about, he shook his hand disapprovingly, "This person is arrogant and domineering, but he is brave and good at fighting, and he slaughters like a dog, as long as he does what he likes and gives him a chance to kill, he is like a wolf that smells blood, and he will never let go of any prey." ”

Li Fengyun pointed to the direction of the Dading River, "The Goguryeo people are the best prey, and the defeat of Sashui is a great shame for Luo Yi, so it is not difficult to imagine, but the Goguryeo people are trapped in the encirclement and encounter Luo Yi, what kind of ending will it be." ”

Guo Ming, Xu Shisan and the others looked at each other, although they were still worried, but since Li Fengyun was so confident, they could only keep their uneasiness in their hearts.

"Write to Xin Yigong (Han Shige) and ask him to speed up his march and be sure to arrive at the battlefield before dusk tomorrow, so as not to delay the warplane."

On the fourth day of the fifth month, in the early morning, Eji Wende received a battle report from Shaomurin, Quan Baicao and Shi Xin from the front line of the Dading River.

Today's fierce battle for a day, the enemy's fatigue has been revealed, the defense line has been repeatedly broken, and the enemy reinforcements have never been seen, according to which it is concluded that the enemy's invasion force is estimated to be so many people, about more than 20,000 kinds of strings, but it is just puzzling that the Yan people and the Khitan people joined forces to invade Goguryeo, it is understandable, the two were originally an alliance, but how did the Xi people join this alliance? The Xi people and the Khitan fought endlessly, and they fought to the death last year, how could they shake hands and make peace in a blink of an eye, and join hands to expedition to Goguryeo? What was the reason for the two enemies to turn into jade silk, and for what benefit did they attack Goguryeo together with the Jin people?

It is precisely because of these doubts that the three generals such as Shaomuro Lin believe that the opponent's internal conflict is serious, and the three armies will definitely be able to cross the Dading River tomorrow.

It's just a question, where is the Middle-earth division? The enemies in front of him are all the Tatars and the Donghu species, but there is no trace of the Middle-earth Division, so where is the Middle-earth Division? Could it be that your own judgment is wrong?

The three generals were very frank, told Etoshi Wende in detail about their worries, and asked Etoshi Wende to make a decision.

After careful consideration, Yizhi Wende rushed to the front line, crossed the river tomorrow, and the three armies were sent together, but with the division of the Xin Department as the main force, after crossing the river, the division of the Xin Department was the vanguard, attacking and advancing in the direction of Huicheng, while the two divisions of Shaomurin and Quan Baicao followed each other left and right, and the two wings responded, once the battle situation changed, and even the enemy was ambushed, the three armies supported each other, formed a formation to fight, and waited for help.

Ezhi Wende ordered that in the early morning of tomorrow, the general seemed to lead an army to reinforce the Dading River in case of accidents.

He also urgently wrote to Gao Jianwu in Pyongyang and asked Gao Jianwu to send troops to support Qingchuan.
