When he returned to the backyard of the general's mansion, Wang De had ordered people to arrange the items commonly used by the emperor, and exchanged the bedding and curtains. Zhao Bing came back to wash and lay on the bed but couldn't fall asleep for a while. His mind was full of wars that had happened in the past two days. Although he could see through the clues in the reports of each army, he still couldn't figure it out. It has been nearly a year since the Battle of Yashan, and the Song and Yuan naval forces have rarely had conflicts. Of course, this is also because of the huge difference in strength between the two sides. However, when the Yuan army suddenly came, it was really confusing to see.

Whether it is based on military tactics or common sense, before the war, as the commander of the attacking side, would try his best to hide his strategic intentions and secretly dispatch troops to seek the effect of a surprise attack. In theory, the opponent's trick was very beautiful, not only deceived his own naval army, but also deceived spies from all sides everywhere. Zhao Bing estimated that the number of warships entering the vast territory should be much higher than the number recorded in the patrol logs of each battalion.

In theory, under such favorable conditions, the enemy army could catch him off guard. But what puzzled Zhao Bing was why he self-destructed his own actions and revealed his strength? Are they testing, or are they just trying to kill their own majesty, or to cover up a bigger conspiracy? Based on the clues in front of him, he could not make further judgments, and could not think of what the other party was holding, and he could only set defenses everywhere and fell into a passive state.

"Did they change their mind? They are playing secretly to Chen Cang." Zhao Bing suddenly shuddered when he thought of this and sat up.

"What's wrong with the official family?" Wang De, who was sleeping at the foot of the bed, heard the movement and quickly stood up and asked.

"It's okay!" Zhao Bing waved his hand, silenced Wang De, trying to seize the light of inspiration that had just flashed. Before, Leizhou had been quiet, but Guangzhou had been in full swing, with the number of warships and strength far exceeding the information obtained. By the beginning of November, it had reached more than 80,000, and there were more than a thousand ships of various types. Since we had already learned that Sodu was going to capture the city, it was normal to mobilize troops. It was now time for merchants from all over the country to come here to trade one after another, and it was not new to ships frequently entering and leaving the ports.

In addition, Quanzhou was tossed by itself, and Guangzhou was a little lively, so it did not attract excessive attention from Zhao Bing. Now it was under the cover of various seemingly normal situations that the enemy army completed the mobilization and assembly of Jinghu and the Jingxi Navy from north to south. They also used Guangzhou as a transit place to transfer to Leizhou, tricking Qiongzhou's spies.

"It must be this operation planned by the old fox Ali Hague!" Zhao Bing murmured. With his understanding of the current Yuan army's chief generals, only if he has this ability, the new King Zhennan was just a fledgling scumbag and did not show any military talent. It is reported that he has been eating, drinking and having fun in Ezhou's Marshal's Mansion, and he has no intention of going south to lead the army.

Thinking that he had made perfect plans since his debut, but today he was fooled by others. At this time, he still couldn't figure out his intentions. However, he knew very well that he could only win but not lose, because God did not give him a second chance. He had to live in a foreign land without a foothold in Qiongzhou. He had to go abroad to build a country. It was not that simple to say. You should know that the small countries around him were even more desolate and ignorant than Qiongzhou. He lived in a straw hut, slashing and fire, and eating raw meat and drinking blood. If he couldn't do it, he added dishes to others.

"What exactly does Ali Hague want to do?" Zhao Bing knew that it was useless to blame others and acted tantrums, and the difficulties needed to be solved by himself. So he calmed down and followed the idea he had just figured out. After Ali Hague quietly completed the gathering of troops, he took the initiative to expose it. He felt that it was not an idle pain but just to demonstrate to himself. He thought that it was mostly to attract his attention and cover up another bigger action, but he couldn't see through what was hidden behind the maze set up by Ali Hague for a while...

‘Dongdong…’ The drum sounded again. Wang De heard that it was already ugly now, and he could only accompany him if the little emperor didn’t sleep. There was no light in the room. He looked behind the tent with the moonlight thrown in the window. His Majesty was still sitting there, wrapped in a silk quilt, pulling the corner of the quilt with both hands, only showing his face, sitting cross-legged like an old monk entering into a meditation, muttering from time to time, turning a deaf ear to the thunderous sound of waves made by the tide outside, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Ah..." Yesterday had been struggling for a day. Although Wang De was not qualified to participate in military and national affairs, he was in charge of the little emperor's food, drink, defecation, and sleep. He was not idle after running around. He had to accompany him when he came in. Finally, he was hysterical again and sat there without sleep. He couldn't stand it anymore. He felt a moment of sleepiness and his throat was tight. Wang De hurriedly covered his mouth and blocked the yawn that reached his mouth.

‘Squeaking and twisting…’ The rising tide reached its peak, carrying the coolness and wet sea breeze blew in. The unclosed window sash made a sour sound. Wang De knew that the little emperor could turn a deaf ear to the noise outside when he was in a daze, and was very sensitive to the movement around him. Therefore, he tiptoed over and removed the support rod, closed the window, and the squeaking sound was gone, and the room seemed much quieter.

"Open the window!" Zhao Bing is not a real monk, so naturally his ears cannot isolate the sounds from the outside world. Suddenly, he became quiet. He frowned and suddenly said.

"It's... the official family!" Although Wang De knew that there were only him and the little emperor in the room, the sudden sound still jumped down. He looked back and hurriedly agreed to open the window again, "Squeaking and Twisting..." The sound that made people feel extremely bored sounded again.

"Okay, close it, let's go to bed!" After a while, Zhao Bing suddenly shouted, then turned over and lay down.

"Oh..." Wang De didn't know what the little emperor was damaging, so he had to close the window that had just opened. When he turned around, the little emperor had already snored softly. He sighed and pulled the quilt for His Majesty, and also groped to lie on the foot of the bed, and soon fell asleep...

…………

As soon as dawn, Zhao Bing was woken up by Wang De, saying that Privy Councilor Zhang Shijie and his group of people were waiting for the interview. This made him very reluctant. He felt that he had just glanced for a while and had a nap. But I thought that there was still a lot to do today. After a while, I still got up, washed my face and rinsed my mouth and ate the breakfast I sent before changing my clothes to Shuaitang to meet the generals.

"See Your Majesty!" The emperor sat down, and Zhang Shijie led the generals to worship.

"Everyone is exempted from the gift!" Zhao Bing yawned and raised his hand and helped him.

"Your Majesty also needs to take care of the dragon body, don't work too much!" Zhang Shijie went to see His Majesty after receiving an urgent report from Pushui Camp in Haikou the day before yesterday, but he didn't expect that the little emperor had already rushed to Haikou to deal with it before the opportunity. He was still quite dissatisfied with this. He had to deal with such a few things in person, and he had to do what he wanted as the Privy Councilor to do, why didn't he take him with him? But as soon as His Majesty left and reported that a big battle with the enemy, he could no longer sit still and led Liu Shiyong and Lu Shiwen to meet His Majesty. Seeing the little emperor's face was exhausted and his two dark circles, he knew that His Majesty had not slept well.

"Yes, Your Majesty still needs to take care of the dragon body!" Liu Shiyong and Lu Shiwen also politely said. It can be seen that the little emperor looks funny and distressed. Thinking about how such a young child is composed of the empire, he struggled to support it in order to continue the national vein.

"You guys know what happened in the past two days!" Zhao Bing waved his hand and asked them all to sit down and say.

"Your Majesty, I have read the military newspaper and have also heard from Liu Dutong." Zhang Shijie said.

"What do you think about Shushu and how do you deal with it?" Zhao Bing asked after taking a sip of tea.

"I agree with Your Majesty's view. This battle is indeed a trap set by the Tartars, but I think that his own exposure of strength is not just showing off his strength, but another conspiracy is in it." Zhang Shijie said, "In my foolish opinion, the enemy's situation is unclear at the moment, so we should not act rashly and respond to all changes with the unchanging."

"Well, I also feel that something is wrong, but I still can't guess the purpose." Zhao Bing sighed lightly.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates tried the captured enemy soldiers overnight last night. It was learned that they were all affiliated with the Jinghu Navy, and the chief general was Chen Yi, a navy along the riverside of the Tartars. This time, not only was the Jinghu Navy ordered to be transferred south, but there were also nearly a thousand warships heading south, stationed in the coastal ports of Guangnan, two routes of Guangnan." Liu Zhu reported at this time.

"Liu Dutong, then Chen Yi is the Chen Yi who was the commander in front of the front hall of our rebel general of the Song Dynasty?" Liu Shiyong frowned and asked after hearing this.

"Report to the Tongzhi, it's this thief!" Liu Zhu replied.

"This thief was once the defensive commander of the Song Dynasty along the river. He was familiar with water wars. Later, he commanded the naval army of the two Huai battalions. Later, he surrendered to the Tatars with the Lu bandits in Huangzhou. He was cunning and use tricks. The secret transmission of the two Tartars' naval troops in the south was probably due to his actions!" Liu Shiyong nodded and said.

"What Tongzhi said is true. The Chen bandits are good at using military forces. The Lianghuai Navy is a soldier who has fought for a long time and is brave in combat. The battle plan seems to be a series of actions, but it is against his usual actions before the war!" Lu Shi Wenyan said. He knew very well about the Lianghuai Navy. His army was from the former commander Zhao Kui, and later controlled by the Lu family. The generals led by the Lu family were all from their own nephews. Chen Yi actually did not belong to it, but he also had close ties with the Lu family. In fact, several naval generals present, including Zhang Shijie, had served under his command.

"Your Majesty, those prisoners all said they came to fight against Champa City, and they did not know that they would use troops to Qiongzhou. The general who commanded the army was the Mongol Aoluchi, the deputy envoy of the Privy Council of Jinghu. This man had participated in the battle to attack Xiangyang and was said to be very good at using troops, but he did not know the details." Liu Zhu reported again.

"Well, from the current situation, the Tartars attacked Qiong has become a foregone conclusion. Although the Guangzhou route is still uncertain, I think this enemy provocation is to cover its transit through Qiongzhou, rather than attacking it in conjunction with two routes. What do you think?" Zhao Bing nodded to show that it was clear and asked again.

"Your Majesty thought that the enemy troops on Jinghu Road deliberately exposed their whereabouts, and deliberately attracted our attention to Leizhou. Although they helped the enemy troops in Guangzhou pass through, wouldn't it be more difficult for them to attack Qiong again?" Zhang Shijie questioned the little emperor's statement.

"Your Majesty may be the enemy's military command in Jinghu Province's southern transfer. It is precisely if what he said was a false way to attack Chameng. The enemy in Guangzhou was afraid of our navy and was afraid of being intercepted, so he used this trick to attack the west!" Liu Shiyong said in a statement.

"Your Majesty, what I am most worried about is that the enemy first releases the sound of attacking the city of Champa, disturbing our audio-visual, and then making a false sense of mystery, causing us to misjudgment. In fact, both troops and horses point to our Qiongzhou, making it difficult for our army to take care of each other!" Lu Shi Wenyan said.

"All the ministers say it makes sense." Zhao Bing was not surprised by the differences between the three. This was what he thought last night. He smiled and said, "What Liu Tongzhi said was the best result for our dynasty. Both enemy troops pointed at Chameng. We were watching the tiger fight in the mountains, so that they could both lose and take the opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity. Zhang Shushu thought of the result, and we fought hard with all our troops. We dare not say that we won a great victory. I think you have the confidence to defend Qiongzhou. The result that General Lu said was the worst. We have to fight on both sides, and our military strength would inevitably be ineffective. It would be a fierce battle of life and death. Victory would be a miserable victory, and if you lose, you have to go to the sea again!"

"Haha, I think Your Majesty is confident. I have secretly used tricks to anger Kublai Khan. Is this the battle to attack Champa?" Zhang Shijie, as the prime minister of the court and the head of the military officer, certainly knew about His Majesty playing tricks on Liu Mengyan and the other two. He admired this very much. The others here were kept in the dark. Today, it was over, so it didn't matter if he said it.

"Oh, it turns out that Your Majesty has made a plan and knows the result today!" Liu Zhu said in surprise. In fact, when he first arrived in Qiongzhou, His Majesty had already decided on the strategy of defending Qiong: the enemy attacked all the way, attacked the rear troops with naval troops, and the infantry defended the shore, and annihilated the enemy at the beach; the enemy attacked two groups, attacked one by one, annihilated the enemy at the sea, and then assisted the infantry to annihilate the other route. He knew that the enemy attacked two groups, and the navy would bear great pressure, so he did not want to see it. But now he was happy to know that Your Majesty was already dividing the enemy.

"The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly, and no one can guarantee that all plans will be fully planned. Therefore, we must make the worst preparations and strive for the best result!" Zhao Bing chuckled, "I think the enemy is trying to use the weaknesses we cannot accurately determine the direction of the attack to make arrangements. First, they transfer the Jinghu Navy to Leizhou by concealing the world and crossing the sea; then they use a plan to cover up the truth to create an accidental conflict to provoke the war. After we suddenly know that the enemy already has the strength to fight across the sea, we will inevitably panic and turn our attention to the north, giving the Guangzhou Army that attacked the city a chance to transit."
