Chapter 701 In the next few days, Shao Fang was no longer so easy in the country of Feng, the edict of the Son of Heaven was drafting, and the matter of Feng Mo joining forces to attack Ning was imminent, Tang Yin and Shao Fang began to divide and coordinate in detail the specific time, place and general direction of the attack.
Three days later, Shao Fang left the Wind Country and returned to China for deployment, and Tang Yin was also ready to set off for Hedong for the second personal expedition to the Ning State.
Batches of newly trained recruits from the Wind Country were deployed to Hedong in a steady stream, and a large number of supplies, ordnance, grain and grass were also transported along with the recruits, and the gears of the war machine began to speed up.
It wasn't until the day before he left that Tang Yin went to the palace to bid farewell to Yin Rou.
Hearing that he was going to personally lead the Feng army to fight with Ning Guo, Yin Rou was surprised and worried, she subconsciously grabbed Tang Yin's sleeve and asked nervously: "Haven't the two countries already negotiated peace, why do they want to fight again?"
Tang Yin said with a relaxed face: "Ning Guo has always been a tiger and a tiger to the Wind Country, Ning Guo will not die, and the Wind Country will never have Ning said." ” "Do you have to fight," she grabbed Tang Yin's sleeve tighter.
Tang Yin nodded and said: "The arrow is on the string, how can you not send it" After a pause, he patted Yin Rou's little hand and comforted softly: "Don't worry, this battle will end soon, at most half a year, at least in March, I will take you to Ningdu Liangzhou to play" He said it easily, but Yin Rou couldn't relax at all, war was impermanent, and any accident could happen She shook her head and forced herself not to think about bad things.
She whispered, "Can I go with you?"
Tang Yin smiled, raised his hand to gently touch her cheek, and said, "Rou'er is content with such a heart."
Just wait in the palace for news of my triumph. ” "En" Yin Rou also understands that on the battlefield, she is a burden, and she can't help with anything, but she still needs the protection of others.
She said with a lonely expression: "Yin, you have to be careful, I'll wait for you." ” Tang Yin didn't say anything more, silently hugged her into his arms, and sniffed the faint and charming fragrance on her body with fascination.
Half a month later, Yin Zhen issued a text against rebellion, condemning Ning Guo for being disloyal and rebellious, and inviting all the kings of the world to discuss it.
On the second day after the release of the rebellious text, before Ning Guo could make any response, Feng and Mozambique declared war on Ning at the same time.
At this time, Tang Yin had reached the camp in Hedong, and he was accompanied by Qiu Zhen, Jiang Fan, and fifteen generals recruited by Na Wuling.
Now the Hedong battalion of the Wind Country has more than 400,000 troops.
The strength of the Plains Army, the Three Water Army, the Directly Subordinate Army, and the Four Armies of the Sky Eagle Army all reached more than 100,000.
In the battle against Ning, the primary goal of the Feng army was to cross the Zhanghe River, crush the Hexi camp of the Ning army, and completely open the passage into Hexi County.
In the past, when the eldest grandson Yuanhong was guarding Hexi, Tang Yin suffered two big losses in a row, losing nearly 100,000 soldiers, and now the commander of Ningguo guarding Hexi has been replaced by Wei Zheng, and Tang Yin does not want to suffer another defeat in the hands of Wei Zheng.
After Tang Yin's discussion with the generals under his command, a battle plan was finally formulated.
The Sky Eagle Army took the lead, attacked the Hexi Battalion head-on, pinned down the Ningguo warships, and the Plains Army, the Sanshui Army, and the directly subordinate troops detoured to the flank and forced the crossing.
Although the Feng Army has been trained in water warfare for a long time in the Hedong Battalion, water warfare is still the weakness of the Wind Army due to the limitations of ships and equipment, and this first battle of crossing the water is also the most difficult for the Feng Army.
On the day that Tang Yin declared war on Ning, in order not to give Ning's army too much time to prepare, the Feng army launched an attack in the morning of that day.
Because the task of the Sky Eagle Army is the most important and the most difficult, almost all the wooden boats in the Wind Army are assigned to the Sky Eagle Army, with an army of more than 100,000 and nearly 20,000 small boats, sailing out of the camp east of the river and rowing straight to the opposite bank.
For the sudden offensive launched by the Feng Army, the Ning Army was not unprepared.
Wei Zheng's ability may not be as good as that of the eldest grandson Yuanhong, but he is also a famous general of the Ning Kingdom.
After Feng Ning signed the peace treaty, he did not dare to take it lightly, and constantly sent secret agents to monitor Feng Guo's every move.
When the Son of Heaven issued a holy decree to invite King Ning to enter the Wind Face Saint, Wei Zheng had already judged that this was a trap.
The king went, but he went and did not return, and if he did not go, he would be truthful.
From this time on, Wei Zheng began to actively prepare for war without receiving an order from the imperial court to meet the needs of the emergency.
The result was really what he expected, but the sudden entry of Mozambique into the war was something he never expected.
Hearing that there was an abnormality in the wind camp, tens of thousands of ships were heading towards his own camp, Wei Zheng sneered, and gave the order unhurriedly to let his own warships meet the battle.
The ships of the Sky Eagle Army were close to 20,000, while the ships of the Ning Army were only a few hundred, but the difference in size between the two sides was too great.
The warships of the Ning army are huge, tall and long, most of them are divided into three or four layers, each layer has a dense arrow shooting port, and the hull is also wrapped with iron sheets, not afraid of collision, and what is even worse is that the crossbow of the broken army that fell into the hands of the Ning army of the wind army was imitated by Wei Zheng and equipped with various warships, with such powerful weapons, the combat effectiveness of the warship was obviously improved to a higher level.
The ships of both sides had just started fighting, and the high and low points were divided.
Ning Jun was on the big boat, condescending, and first shot a giant crossbow arrow, and the crossbow arrow hit the small wooden boat, shattering the hull in an instant, and the wind sergeants on it fell into the water one after another.
And there are also broken crossbows on the side of the Feng Army, but they don't hurt when they shoot on the battleships of the Ning Army, the huge ships, the huge hulls, I don't know how many crossbow arrows are hit before they can sink.
The number of the Feng army was more than that of the Ning army, and the ships were several times that of the Ning army, but the combat effectiveness was not proportional.
Ziying knows very well where his shortcomings are, where the enemy's strengths are, he keeps giving orders, beating drums, beating drums, beating drums again, the whole army charges violently, and he must get close to the other side, as long as his own soldiers can successfully climb to the opponent's warship, the victory is on his side.
As the ships of both sides continued to approach, the water battle also reached a fever pitch.
The crossbow arrows on both sides shuttled back and forth on the river surface, and the small boats on the side of the wind army were hit by the crossbow arrows from time to time, broken into wooden planks, and countless soldiers fell into the water.
On the other hand, the Ning army, the warships are also constantly suffering from crossbow arrows, especially the warships in front, the huge hull is full of crossbow arrows, and the river water continues to pour into the boat along the breach, and then it is poured out of the boat by the Ning soldiers one after another, and the Ning soldiers in the cabin are also knocked away by the crossbow arrows shot in from time to time, piercing the body, and the death is extremely miserable.
As the distance between the two sides approached, the Ning army took the lead in launching arrow shooting.
At this time, the advantage of the tall hull was brought into play again, and the condescending shooting made the Ning army able to shoot the wind army, but the wind army could not shoot the Ning army, even if there were arrows flying on the warship, it was only the end of the strong crossbow, and it was difficult to hurt people, not to mention that the Ning army was still hiding in the cabin, with a hard hull as cover.
In the battle, the power of the Ning army's arrow array was fully demonstrated, after a round of arrow array, the attacked boat was submerged by the eagle feather, the inside and outside of the hull were filled with dense arrows, the wind soldiers on the ship were inevitably hit by arrows even if they had a shield as a cover, often a boatload of wind soldiers were not spared, all were shot into hedgehogs.
Wei Zheng, who personally went out of the camp to supervise the battle, stood at the top of the handsome ship, raised his eyes and looked at the battlefield ahead, with a confident smile on his face.

The Wind Army wants to defeat its own giant warship with a small wooden boat, and no matter how many troops are invested, it is only killing itself.
This is not a battle at all, it is completely one-sided.
The battle continued, and the Wind Army was still making a desperate suicidal charge, but the number of dead had soared to as many as 20,000 or 30,000.
Just when Wei Zheng felt that the overall situation was decided, all of a sudden, a partial general behind him pointed to the north and exclaimed: "General, it's not good, there is wolf smoke in the north."
Wei Zheng hurriedly turned his head to look north, but no, on the west bank of the Zhanghe River in the north, the beacon towers everywhere had been ignited, and black smoke was billowing into the sky.
It seems that the Wind Army is not only attacking in this place, but also investing troops in the north.
I don't know whether the Feng army is a feint attack or a real attack in the north, Wei Zheng didn't dare to divide too many warships, he turned around and ordered the herald to mobilize fifty warships to the north for reinforcements.
He had just separated fifty warships from his side, and immediately after that, the southern wolf smoke rose again.
Wei Zheng did the same, and divided fifty warships to reinforce the attacked sites in the south.
However, the Wind Army did not invest in one army in the south, but two armies, the Plains Army and the directly subordinate army.
Tang Yin commanded the army directly under the command and forcibly crossed the river ten miles south of the Hexi camp of the Ning Army, in order to express his determination to cross the river for the next time, and also to let the soldiers abandon the distracting thoughts of greed for life and fear of death, Tang Yin personally led the army to fight.
Because the ships were all given to the Sky Eagle Army, Tang Yin didn't even have a small wooden boat here, and some were just rafts.
The raft he was on took the lead, rushed to the front, and went straight to the other side, the monarch could be so willing to forget about life and death, and take the lead, where did the soldiers below still have the slightest idea of stealing their lives, people all held back their strength, rowed the wooden oars, and followed Tang Yin's raft.
Twenty miles south of the Hexi camp, that is, the place where the Feng army suffered two defeats in a row, it was the main attack site of the Plains Army.
Xiao Muqing still vividly remembers the scene of the fiasco of the Plains Army here last time, and this time he has made up his mind to be ashamed, even if he uses people to fill in and pile up people, he must rush to the other side.
Since its establishment, the Plains Army has never been defeated, and the only stain is on the Zhanghe River.
When crossing the river, most of the soldiers threw off the armor on their bodies and went into battle shirtless, holding a shield in one hand, paddling in the other, holding a steel knife in their mouths, their bloodshot eyes were about to release red light, staring at the opposite bank, and the speed of driving on the river was even faster than Tang Yin's direct army.
The fifty warships sent by Wei Zhengnan did not encounter the Plains Army, but first encountered the directly subordinate army led by Tang Yin
