Chapter 614 Under Tang Yin's instructions, the Feng army put out all the small boats collected and moored them on the shore, it seemed that the Feng army was going to attack the Ning army camp from the front, and in secret, the wind army had secretly carried the raft to the south of the camp twenty miles away, and the army also quietly assembled there.
As Lotte and Ai Jia explored, the river is not wide, the current is gentle, and when you look at the opposite bank, there is a large green and dense forest, and you can't see the edge at a glance.
Tang Yin came to check in person, he squatted in the grass, squinted his eyes at the opposite bank, and silently made a judgment in his heart.
Although the Zhanghe River is a river in its name, it is actually about the same width as the river, and the width of the river is generally between two and three miles, and the width of the river here is about one and a half miles at best, and the water flow is not turbulent, without the enemy's obstruction, Tang Yin estimated that it would take at most twenty minutes for the raft to row to the opposite bank.
Thinking of this, he turned his head and said, "Mu Qing" Xiao Muqing's waist leaned in front of Tang Yin and whispered, "In" Tang Yin asked: "How many rafts are there in our army?"
Xiao Muqing calculated a little and said, "There should be no less than five thousand." ” Tang Yin nodded, 5,000 rafts, transporting 50,000 soldiers in the past is not a problem, and his own 200,000 troops can all cross the Zhanghe River in four or five hours.
He squinted his eyes, looked at the dense forest on the other side, and asked the generals on the left and right, "What do you think of this place?"
Xiao Muqing replied first: "This place can be called an excellent location for secretly crossing the Zhanghe River."
Liang Qi and Ziying also nodded yes, and now they both saw the hope of their own victory.
If you can really cross the Zhanghe River without knowing it, then you will definitely be able to catch the Ning army by surprise, and the eldest grandson Yuanhong is seriously wounded, and the more than 100,000 western troops of the Ning State are not afraid at all.
It can be seen that the fighting spirit of Xiao Muqing, Liang Qi, and Ziying has been raised, Tang Yin is happy in his heart, and the three of them have begun to have confidence in this battle, so it undoubtedly proves that this battle is indeed feasible.
Tang Yin looked around and saw Lotte, beckoned to him, and asked, "Lotte, have the brothers sent to the other side come back?"
Lotte shook his head and said, "For the sake of secrecy, I don't have many people to send out, and it will take some time to investigate such a large secret forest, and it is estimated that it will be almost the same in the afternoon or evening." ” "En" Tang Yin's eyes rolled, and he said to Xiao Muqing, Liang Qi, Ziying, and Gu Yue: "Mobilize all the soldiers of the army, as long as we confirm that there are no ambushes on the other side, our army will cross the river immediately." ” "It's the king" Even if Tang Yin didn't say it, the main force of the Wind Army was quietly gathering here.
The wind army that rushed over gathered more and more, but fortunately, the shore was full of weeds more than half a person high, and the soldiers of the wind army squatted in the grass, looking coldly, and they couldn't see anything.
Time passed bit by bit, but the other side was always calm, and there was not even a single figure in sight, let alone a trace of the Sky Eye spies.
Tang Yin was relaxed on the surface, but his heart began to become anxious, he knew that without further ado, the truth that if it was delayed, if it was delayed, who knew when a Ning army would come over and see through his own actions, if he missed this opportunity now, it would be even more difficult to find such an excellent offensive position.
He had never felt like time had passed so long.
Gradually, the scorching sun in the sky turned into a setting sun, and 200,000 wind troops had been waiting on the shore for more than three hours, and it was almost evening at this time.
There were several times when Tang Yin wanted to give the order to attack directly without waiting for the Tianyan spies, but his reason immediately suppressed the heart in his heart, and at the same time repeatedly reminded himself that he should not take the surnames of 200,000 soldiers as a child's play.
It was getting darker and darker, and while people were waiting anxiously with their surnames, there was a sudden sound of rushing water on the shore, and then a man in black who was wet came out of the river.
"Someone" Tang Yin, who was on the edge of the river, had extremely sharp ears and immediately heard that someone had come ashore.
Lotte was in high spirits and said urgently: "King, I'll go and see." ” "Well, if the probing brother returns, bring it to me immediately."
"It's the King" Lotte burrowed through the weeds and walked towards the river.
After a short time, Lotte returned, followed by a young man in black.
He walked back to Tang Yin's side quickly, and at the same time beckoned to the young man behind him, his excitement was overflowing, and he whispered to Tang Yin: "King, the brother sent out by the last general to investigate is back."
"Oh" Tang Yin's eyes lit up suddenly, and he raised his eyes to look at the black-clothed young man behind Lotte, this young man was in his early twenties, not tall, stout, how high the muscles on his body bulged, and his appearance was mediocre, but a pair of small eyes were bright and very energetic.
Tang Yin suddenly had a sense of déjà vu while looking at the young man, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him for a while.
He asked Lotte, "This brother is your Tianyan person."
"That's right, his name is Wang Hai, and he was the first batch of brothers when he formed Tianyan" Lotte first responded, and then asked: "Why does the king think there is something wrong?"
As he spoke, he came back and glanced at Wang Hai.
"There's nothing wrong with that."
Tang Yin smiled and waved his hand, since he was an old man with Tianyan, it was normal for him to have seen him before, and it was right to have a sense of acquaintance.
He asked, "Wang Hai, have you gone to the other side to find out if there are any Ningguo ambushes in the forest?"
"No" Wang Hai's head shook like a rattle, and he said in an extremely affirmative tone: "My brothers and I have carefully inspected that piece of forest, not to mention the ambush, not even the secret post of the Ning army." ” "Are you sure" Tang Yin's eyes were like torches, and he looked directly at Wang Hai.
Wang Hai showed a blank look, nodded blankly and replied: "Of course, the king, this is what the villain has seen with his own eyes."
After hearing this, Tang Yin no longer hesitated, and waved his hand to Wang Hai: "Little brother has worked hard, you go down and rest."
Being able to be called a brother by the king, Wang Hai was flattered, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and said: "The villain retires" After Wang Hai left, Tang Yin clenched his fists, waved his hand to call the generals, and ordered: "I have just received the news that there are no ambushes in the forest on the other side, and there is no secret post, and our army will cross the river immediately."
"It's the king, and the last general will give the order."
Xiao Muqing and the others had been waiting for Tang Yin's order for a long time, and as soon as his words fell, everyone gave up their hands one after another, and people were about to leave, when they suddenly remembered one more thing and asked Tang Yin: "King, which army will cross the river first" Tang Yin thought for a while, and said to Guan Tang: "General Guan, I will lead the new army to cross the Zhanghe River first, and there are few new soldiers, so you can bring more baggage and grain and grass over." ” Guan Tang's face was straight, and he intervened and said, "The last general will obey the order" Tang Yin gave an order, and the new army led by Guan Tang crossed the river first.
Hearing the order, 30,000 soldiers of the new army stood up from the grass one after another, and moved the rafts hidden in the weeds to the river, 5,000 rafts were unfolded, and when they looked up, there was a black and oppressive patch on the bank, and the wind army was like ants, or walking on the raft, or carrying baggage, shuttling back and forth, and being very busy.
At this time, Tang Yin and the others no longer hid their traces, and straightened up one after another, walked to a high ground, and watched their own river crossing actions.
After a short time, the first rafts quietly left the shore and paddled quickly towards the opposite shore.
This more than 1,000 rafts are full of wind troops, not to mention more than 10,000 people, the speed of gliding on the river is extremely fast, and more than 10 meters are traveled in an instant, and then, there is the second batch of rafts, like the first batch, there are more than 10,000 people on it, and then the third and fourth batches of these rafts are mainly war horses, baggage, grain and grass.
Although the new army is all recruits who have just been recruited, the vast majority of them know the surname Shui, and they do not panic at all when they stand on the rickety raft, and no one falls into the water, which is much stronger than the Plains Army, the Sanshui Army, the Sky Eagle Army, and the directly subordinate army.
Watching his soldiers row to the opposite bank on a raft in batches, a smile gradually appeared on Tang Yin's face, and his two eyes were about to shoot light, at this time his heart was both nervous and excited, he didn't expect that the war would go so smoothly.

Time passed quickly, the first rafts were getting closer and closer to the west bank of the Zhanghe River, people squinted their eyes, clenched their fists tightly, and stared at the opposite bank by the dim light of dusk.
I don't know how long it took for the first rafts to reach the West Bank with everyone's anticipation.
Seeing his soldiers rushing up the river bank from the raft like a tide, Tang Yin's beating heart finally calmed down, he let out a long sigh, and then couldn't help but smile on his back, and said to everyone on the left and right: "Early tomorrow morning, our army will start a stove in Ningying."
"Haha" When everyone heard this, they all laughed out loud, Xiao Muqing said to the partial general behind him: "Pass the order, let our soldiers prepare to cross the river" "It's the general" the general excitedly replied, turned around and galloped away.
In the eyes of Tang Yin, Xiao Muqing and others, as long as they can successfully cross the Zhanghe River and go up to the west bank, the war will have been more than half successful, but what everyone never expected is that the new army that crossed the Zhanghe River first will really become a cannon fodder army.
Just as the Plains Army had lined up in battle formation by the river, just waiting for their raft to return from the opposite bank, they suddenly heard a sharp and piercing scream piercing through the dense forest on the opposite bank.
The people froze, looked at the other side with a look of surprise on their faces, their eyes widened.
I saw that the woods on the west bank of the Chang River suddenly lit up with a fire as dense as stars, and before people could figure out what was going on, the fire flew out at the same time.
It was a flaming rocket wrapped in an oilcloth.
The wind army that had just come ashore was carrying the baggage, grain and grass on the raft downward, and where there was any defense, they were caught off guard by this sudden array of arrows.
The new army has just been formed for three days, and before it has time to do systematic training, people will not fight, and they do not know how to deal with the sneak attack
