Chapter 390 Nan Yan's questioning made Shao Fang's face flush with anger, his eyebrows stood up, he slapped the table, stood up, pointed at Nan Yan, and shouted: "Nan Yan, you are so bold, you dare to speak disrespectfully to this king."
"The last general will not dare."
Nan Yan lowered his head and said: "It's just that the last general is upright by nature and doesn't vomit or be unhappy." ” "Okay, good, this king will let you vomit today" Shao Fang smoked seven holes, and roared angrily outside the hall: "Come on, drag this bold traitor out to this king, and kill him."
With his words, several guards strode into the hall, and when they reached Nanyan, they couldn't help but say something, and escorted him out.
Nan Yan didn't even say a word of pleading, let the guards drag him, and walked out of the main hall.
Nan Yan is a veteran in the Mozambican army, the reason why he is a veteran is not that he is old, but that he has been in the army for a long time, he joined the army at the age of fifteen, and now it has been almost 20 years.
Among the Mozambican army, there are still many generals who admire Nanyan, including Lian Ge and Xiang Wen, two Mozambican tiger generals.
Seeing that the king really wanted to kill Nanyan, the two of them stepped out of the ranks, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and said urgently: "King, General Nan is the king of the country and has always been loyal, and General Nan is the commander of the Tiger Army, and the king is now beheading General Nan, I am afraid that it will cause the dissatisfaction of the soldiers of the Tiger Army, which is not good for our country, and I hope the king will think twice."
If it was persuaded by someone else, Shao Fang, who was angry, might have to kill the people who dissuaded him, but at this time, it was Lian Ge and Xiang Wen who persuaded him, who were his favorite and most valued tiger generals, and the anger in his chest gradually suppressed.
"This thief is hateful, he doesn't take this king in his eyes at all, how can this king keep him" said this, but Shao Fang's face had softened a little, and he slowly sat back when he stood up.
"General Nan is straightforward by nature, he can say whatever he wants, the king sees General Nan's love for fighting for the country for more than ten years, so let's spare General Nan this time" Lian Ge and Xiang Wen said in unison.
At this time, many other generals also knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said: "I hope that the king will take back his life, and General Rao Nan will take his life."
Killing the general in battle is indeed not good for one's own side.
Shao Fang, who calmed down, also felt that it was not appropriate to behead Nanyan in this situation, and it happened that all the generals were interceding for him, so Shao Fang also borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, and said along the river: "Okay, for the sake of your Aiqing interceding for him, this king will spare him first this time."
But the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime is unforgivable, put Nan Yanxian in prison first, and wait for the fate" It was not easy to save Nanyan's life under the king's knife, and everyone didn't dare to ask for anything more, so they kowtowed forward again and said in unison: "The king is wise" Although Shao Fang did not kill Nanyan, the commander of the anti-wind army still has to be chosen, Nanyan will definitely not be used, the general Li Jin is not capable enough, and Lian Ge and Xiang Wen are known for their courage and good at fighting, and they are laymen in commanding troops to fight, so who to choose as the commander, Shao Fang is really worried.
Even in this situation where no one was available, Shao Fang did not dare to propose to take the expedition himself, set an example, and fight to the death with the Feng army.
This may be the biggest difference between him and Tang Yin The ministers discussed and discussed, and finally thought of a person, the lieutenant general of Mozambique, Xu Lengzhi, the general of the counterinsurgency.
Xu Lengzhi is a veteran of Mozambique, the old man is nearly sixty years old, although he has always served as the commander of the Mozambican army, but he is in charge of the navy, not the army.
The eastern part of Mozambique is bordered by the sea, pirates and bandits are rampant, and from time to time there are small groups of Fanbang naval invasion and plunder, so it has not been peaceful, when Shao Fang's father Shao Ting was the king of Mo, the eastern Donghai County also had the county head bought by Fanbang, rebelled, and declared itself as a country.
At that time, Shao Ting worshiped Xu Lengzhi as his commander, led the naval army to crusade, and defeated the rebellion of Donghai County in one fell swoop, so he also got the title of counterinsurgency general.
After the rebellion of Donghai County was put down, Xu Lengzhi was stationed there, serving as the commander of the naval army and the head of Donghai County, until now.
Now, the situation in Mozambique is critical, and Xu Lengzhi, the commander of the naval army far away in Donghai County, has thought of him, and it can be seen that there is indeed no one available.
In fact, Shao Fang was also muttering, it was absolutely no problem for Xu Lengzhi to fight a water war, but could he do it if he fought a land war Li Jin, Guo Hui, Zhang Rong and others explained that although the battle on land and water was different, the principle was the same, and since Xu Lengzhi could command the naval army as well, then he could definitely command on land.
Shao Fang accepted the statement of Li Jin and others, and immediately sent a letter to Donghai County, and urgently transferred Xu Leng Zhi back to the capital.
Xu Lengzhi, the commander of the Eastern Naval Army of Mozambique, was recalled to Zhenjiang by Shao Fang, and then named him a general, gave him the title of General Pingbei, and worshiped him as the commander of the three armies, ordered 300,000 troops, and went to Haowan County, where he was united with the central army of Mozambique, and fought to the death with the Feng army that invaded Zeping County.
In fact, Li Jin, Guo Hui and others are right, the navy and the army are in the same position, and those who can fight water battles are not far from returning to land.
Don't look at Xu Lengyi's age, but his ambition is not small, he happily accepted Shao Fang's appointment, and he also regarded this expedition as his last opportunity to make contributions before he left his armor and returned to the field.
When the wind army heard that Mozambique sent a naval marshal to serve as the commander of the Central Army, people almost laughed off.
Qi Heng took the initiative to ask Tang Yin for help, willing to be the vanguard army, enter Haowan County, and sweep away the enemy army.
The Mozambican army did not have a way to crack the heavy cavalry, which caused the Ninth Army to be in a no-man's land on the battlefield, and no one was invincible.
Qi Heng was even more arrogant, and he didn't take Mo Jun in his eyes at all.
Tang Yin is also facing a problem now, that is, dividing troops to fight.
After conquering Zeping County, according to the deployment of the Military and Political Hall, the Feng army is now divided into troops, and the goal of the main force is still to the south and attack Haowan County, but at the same time, it is necessary to divide a part of the troops to attack Surabaya, the main purpose is to help the Jade Army open the door to Mozambique, so that the Jade Army can enter Mozambique smoothly.
First of all, the combat power of the Plains Army is strong, and with the current defense of Surabaya, the Plains Army can take it lightly, and secondly, the reputation of the Plains Army is great, and after the defeat of Surabaya and the integration of the Jade Army, with the Plains Army as a backer, the morale of the Jade Army can also be improved a lot, and the combat power will naturally be improved, which is conducive to cooperating with the main army of their own side.
Dividing the Plains Army has a great impact on the overall combat strength of the Wind Army, Tang Yin is also thinking about how to fight the next southward war, at this time, seeing Qi Heng taking the initiative to ask for help, and looking confident, Tang Yin thinks that he can let the Ninth Army give it a try.
Judging from the current battle situation, the Mo army is obviously underprepared for the emergence of the Ninth Army and has no way to deal with it, and it would be a pity if they did not take advantage of this opportunity.
After thinking about it carefully, Tang Yin decided to send the Ninth Army to take the lead, first suppress the Mo army, and then lead the main force to press on it and completely defeat the Mo army.
The Ninth Army led by Qi Heng received Tang Yin's approval, took the lead in opening Changdu, and marched southward, while the main force of the Feng Army led by Tang Yin also set off from Changdu on the second day of the Ninth Army's departure and went to Jiangyang, the border town of Zeping and Haowan.
Now the main army on Tang Yin's side is the direct army, the Flying Dragon Army, the Ninth Army and the Hundred Battles Army, with a total strength of nearly 600,000, and the strength of the Mo army on the other side is just the same as the Feng army, which is also around 600,000.
However, the Feng army has a follow-up force, once the plain army takes Surabaya, then the 200,000 jade army will advance into the country of Mozambique, and then the jade army and the plain army will be united, and the Mozambican army will attack Haowan from Surabaya.
Therefore, the pressure of this battle is completely on the side of the Mo army, if the Mo army cannot quickly defeat the wind army, the next battle will fall into a complete passivity.
Before the war began, the Feng army already had a psychological advantage, and the morale of the officers and men of the whole army was very high.
But what is unexpected is that Xu Lengzhi's arrival has made the already clear situation between the two sides less clear.
Xu Lengzhi has not yet arrived in Haowan County, people on the road, he continued to give command, he ordered the Mo army in Haowan County to build more camps, trenches, mainly defense, can fight on the battlefield, can drag on, really can't fight, immediately retreat, as much as possible to preserve their own troops.
On the other side, he sent an order to Tianyang County, ordering Lechen, the head of Tianyang County, to personally command an elite army, break through from Tianyang County to Zeping County, and sneak attack Changdu, the rear base camp of the Feng Army.

The spies of the Wind Army are aware of the movements of the Mo Army, and similarly, the spies of the Mo Army are also very aware of the movements of the Wind Army.
The entire Feng army went south, wanting to fight to the death with their own side in Haowan County, and their defenses were often empty, in Xu Lengzhi's view, this was a great opportunity for their own side to launch a sneak attack.
If the troops from Haowan County sneak attack, it is easy to be detected by the Feng Army, but it is different from Tianyang County, the Battle of Changdu caused heavy losses to the Mozambican Fourth Route Army, and retreated to Haowan County, including the Mo Army of Tianyang County, for the Wind Army, Tianyang County no longer poses a threat, and the defense focus of the Wind Army cannot be on the side of Tianyang County.
As for the sneak attack on Changdu, Xu Lengzhi values the logistics supply of the Wind Army, the Wind Army has hoarded a large number of supplies in Changdu, as long as it is destroyed, it will be very beneficial to his own next battle situation, in addition, he has a deeper plan A few days later, the Ninth Army crossed Jiangyang and entered Haowan County.
In accordance with Xu Lengzhi's order, the Mo army stationed in Haowan County built a large number of temporary checkpoints, fortresses and camps between cities, towns and even villages to resist the attack of the Feng army.
At the beginning, Qi Heng also dealt with it carefully, but as the battle continued, Qi Heng found that although there were many fortifications of the Mo army, the soldiers had no fighting spirit and little resistance
