On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Chapter 1194 Yue Fei's Vicious Scheme

"Your Majesty is right." Yue Fei did not back down in the slightest upon hearing this.

He still stood tall and proud, his eyes shining brightly.

"This humble general did not act on impulse."

"But they truly have a strategy to defeat the enemy!"

"Oh?" Lin Zhen became interested upon hearing this. "Tell me about it."

"What is your strategy for defeating the enemy?"

Yue Fei took a deep breath and took out a scroll of sheepskin map that she had prepared beforehand from her bosom.

Then, it was slowly unfolded in front of Lin Zhen and Murong Yan.

It was an extremely detailed hydrological map of the waters near Guangzhou Port.

It not only marks every reef, shoal, and ocean current in detail.

Even the daily tidal patterns were clearly marked with a vermilion pen.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty, please take a look."

Yue Fei pointed her finger at a narrow waterway called "Humen" near the mouth of Guangzhou Port on the map.

"This place is called Humen. It is the only passage in and out of Guangzhou Port."

"Its waterways are narrow and the currents are rapid, with reefs and undercurrents lining both banks."

"It can be described as a natural fortress where one man can hold off ten thousand!"

"Although the fleet of those Western barbarians has strong ships, powerful cannons, and large size."

"But precisely because of this, when they enter the Humen waterway, they will inevitably be unable to fully deploy their formation due to the narrowness of the channel!"

"Its speed will inevitably be greatly reduced due to the swift currents and numerous reefs!"

"At that time, their so-called super-giant ships will no longer be invincible sea fortresses in our eyes!"

"Instead, they are slow-moving, helpless targets!"

"And this is our opportunity!"

As Lin Zhen and Murong Yan listened to Yue Fei's clear, logical, and meticulous analysis, their eyes grew brighter and brighter!

They never expected that this young general, who usually seemed somewhat dull and straightforward, would possess such a keen tactical sense in military matters!

He was able to find the biggest advantages and disadvantages of both sides in such a short time!

And they even found a crucial turning point that could turn the tide of the entire battle!

"You mean..." A glint of approval flashed in Lin Zhen's eyes, "that we can set up an ambush at Humen?"

“That’s right!” Yue Fei nodded heavily, her tiger-like eyes flashing with a terrifying, chilling killing intent!

"This humble general's plan is!"

"We can emulate Zhou Yu's fire attack strategy during the Battle of Red Cliffs!"

"We can prepare hundreds of small fireboats loaded with sulfur, kerosene, and gunpowder upstream in the Humen waterway!"

"When the Western barbarian fleet enters the Humen waterway, they will be caught in a dilemma!"

"Then we went downstream and unleashed a volley of arrows!"

"Use these hundreds of fire ships to burn their so-called invincible fleet into a sea of ​​fire!"

"Furthermore!" His voice became even more bloody and cruel!

"We can also pre-install our Shenji Battalion's new artillery on the cliffs on both sides of Humen!"

"Wait until the fire breaks out and the enemy is thrown into chaos!"

"Then we'll unleash a barrage of cannon fire!"

"Those fish that managed to escape from the fire, one boat at a time, throw them all into the Pearl River to feed the turtles!"

"Such a two-pronged approach of fire and artillery bombardment!"

"This humble general does not believe it!"

"Those 20,000 Western barbarians, do they really have the ability to grow wings and fly into the sky?!"

Yue Fei's plan to set off a sea of ​​fire was extremely vicious and wicked.

Lin Zhen and Murong Yan both felt their scalps tingle as they listened!

They looked at the young general in front of them, whose face was filled with murderous intent.

I've never realized before that honest people can be the most terrifying when they get ruthless!

This is hardly a strategy to defeat the enemy.

This was clearly a death trap tailor-made for the East India Company's fleet!

A fiery hell that could bury them completely in a foreign land!

"Good! Good! Good!"

After a brief moment of shock, Lin Zhen couldn't help but exclaim in admiration!

He looked at the young general before him, who even made him feel a chill, his eyes filled with undisguised admiration and praise.

"Yue Fei, oh Yue Fei, you have truly given me a tremendous surprise!"

"I originally thought you were just a capable general who knew how to train soldiers step by step."

"I never expected that you would also possess such amazing talent in tactics and strategy!"

"Burn Humen, bombard the fleet! What a brilliant, two-pronged, ruthless plan!"

"With this plan, let alone the East India Company's fleet, even if the Heavenly King himself came, he would have to give us a good beating right here at the mouth of the Pearl River!"

Lin Zhen's heartfelt praise caused even the usually composed Yue Fei to blush with excitement on his bronze face.

"Your Highness flatters me!" He quickly bowed and said, "My humble skills are nothing but a clumsy attempt in front of Your Highness's extraordinary talent, and I would only make a fool of myself."

"If it weren't for Your Highness, who invented such miraculous things as firearms and cannons..."

"Even if I had many strategies, they would be nothing more than empty talk and completely useless."

"Alright, stop with the empty flattery." Lin Zhen rolled her eyes at him, annoyed.

Then he turned his head and looked at the stunningly beautiful empress beside him, whose beautiful eyes were also sparkling with admiration.

"Yan'er, what do you think?"

“This plan is feasible.” Murong Yan nodded without hesitation.

Although she was not as proficient in military affairs as Lin Zhen and Yue Fei.

However, she was able to judge the feasibility and immense value of this plan by relying on her innate imperial intuition.

“But…” Her tone shifted, a hint of worry flashing in her beautiful phoenix eyes. “While this plan is ingenious, it also has a fatal flaw.”

"Oh?" Lin Zhen and Yue Fei both looked at her with some surprise.

"What flaw?" Lin Zhen asked.

"Then how can we make the enemy fleet obediently sail into the Humen trap we've prepared for them?" Murong Yan pointed out the crux of the problem incisively.

"The East India Company's fleet commander, since he was entrusted with such an important task and sent on a long expedition, must be no ordinary person."

"With such a treacherous terrain, how could he not see it?"

"If he becomes wary and is unwilling to take risks, he might choose to anchor far away outside the port."

"Then, they used their small boats to harass and probe us in batches."

"Wouldn't our seemingly perfect fire attack plan then become a useless decoration?"

Murong Yan's words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly waking Lin Zhen and Yue Fei from their excitement.

Yup!

They were only thinking about how to ambush the enemy at Humen and how to use fire and artillery to annihilate the enemy.

However, they completely overlooked the most crucial issue.

That is, how to lure the enemy deep into our territory!

If the enemy doesn't fall for it or get into the trap.

Wouldn't all their preparations have been in vain?
