Chapter 461 In fact, the envoy of Mozambique did not expect that Tang Yin, the king of the wind, had already crossed the Zhenjiang River and was in the camp of the sailors in the south of the Yangtze River.
It turned out that his side had been fighting with the elite of the Wind Country led by the Wind King, no wonder the Zhenjiang Water Division camp was indestructible, and the strong attack of his own 200,000 troops could not take it.
Directly receiving the promise of the Wind King, the envoy of Mozambique was very excited, nodded and agreed, and then left the Zhenjiang Water Division camp and returned to his temporary camp.
Listening to the messenger's report, Tang Yin, the king of the wind, was in the camp of the Zhenjiang Water Division, and happily accepted his defection, and promised to reuse it in the future, Li Jin and Zhang Rong were ecstatic.
After confirming that his family had been safely transferred by the Feng State, Li Jin had no worries, and led the remnants of about 100,000 defeated generals under his command to go straight to the camp of the Zhenjiang Water Division.
When the army marched into front of the camp of the Zhenjiang Water Division, Li Jin and Zhang Rong each tied ropes and were pulled by a carriage with a small white flag and came directly to the gate of the camp.
As soon as they arrived, the gate was opened, and a large number of soldiers of the Wind Army rushed out of it.
Li Jin and Zhang Rong were supported by their subordinates, and quickly got out of the carriage, and then they both knelt on the ground, completely pleading guilty.
Not long time passed, Tang Yin walked out of the camp surrounded by many wind generals, and saw Zhang and Li kneeling on the ground, he slowly stepped forward, looked down at the two of them for a moment, and then showed a smile on his face, stretched out his hand, and helped the two of them up one by one.
"General Li and Lord Zhang can take the initiative to vote, it is really a blessing for my Fengguo, the two of you please hurry up" As he spoke, Tang Yin turned his head sideways and shouted: "Come on, loosen the ties between General Li and Lord Zhang" With his words, Ah San Ah Si stepped forward and loosened the ropes for Li Jin and Zhang Rong respectively.
In the past, the relationship between Feng and Mo was close and they often had contacts with each other, Tang Yin was no stranger to Zhang and Li, and the latter was naturally familiar with Tang Yin.
After the ropes on the two of them were untied, the two of them knelt on the ground again, squeezed out a few tears without tears, and said in a trembling voice with a crying voice: "The criminal minister Li Jin Zhang Rong, I am ashamed to see His Royal Highness the Wind King."
As they spoke, the two of them fell to the ground and cried.
Tang Yin helped them up again, and said with a smile: "Before, it was inevitable that the masters would fight each other on the battlefield, so why should General Li and Lord Zhang get up quickly."
"Guilty minister, thank you for the kindness of His Royal Highness the Wind King" After Li Jin and Zhang Rong got up, they handed their respective general seals and Taifu official seals to Tang Yin in a proper manner, and at the same time explained to the attendants around them, hurry back to pass the order, let the soldiers of the whole army lay down their weapons and accept the surrender of the Feng army.
Li Jin and Zhang Rong sincerely defected, and the soldiers under their command were already disheartened and had no fighting spirit, and the surrender went smoothly, and the Mo army of more than 100,000 people took the initiative to disarm and surrendered to the Feng army.
With the defection of Zhang and Li, the blow to Mozambique was too great, and now, the Mozambican court did not even dare to send troops to attack.
Li Jin is a general, and the soldiers in the Mo army were originally his subordinates, and if he sends troops and horses at this time, I am afraid that before the battle, he will be recruited by Li Jin to the side of the Wind Country.
Now the battle situation has become very interesting, the north and south banks of Zhenjiang are firmly controlled by the wind army, and the river side of Zhenjiang is controlled by the Mozambican navy, the north and south banks of the wind army face each other across the river, but there is nothing to be done about the Mozambican navy.
However, Mozambique's navy did not last long.
The loss of control over the two sides of the strait is equivalent to the loss of the docks where the Mozambican naval army docks, and it is no longer possible to replenish supplies, and the officers and men of the whole army will not be able to cruise the river every day without eating or drinking.
As the Feng army's control over both sides of the Zhenjiang River was extended, the Mozambican naval army had to retreat eastward, away from the capital, so that the Fengyu coalition could use the rafts to cross the river in an open and honest manner, and transport troops and material resources to the south bank in a steady stream.
After all, the navy must rely on the land as a guarantee, if it loses the support on the land, no matter how powerful the navy is, there is no place for it, and the Mozambican navy is like this now.
The Fengyu coalition army crossed the Zhenjiang River one after another, and next, the army went straight to the capital of Mozambique.
At this time, in Modu Zhenjiang, the government and the opposition were already in turmoil, and a large number of people fled the capital every day and took refuge elsewhere.
Even the ministers of the court were persuading Shao Fang to abandon Zhenjiang and move the capital to the south to temporarily avoid the edge of the Fengyu coalition army.
However, Shao Fang insisted on refusing to move the capital, and did not want to leave Zhenjiang and flee to other places for refuge.
First, he can't be an exiled monarch with his character, and second, since the establishment of the Mo State, he has been in Zhenjiang Dingdu, if God really wants to destroy Mo, then let the Mo State die in Zhenjiang.
Wherever it is born, it will perish Shao Fang refused to leave, and even with him, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty could not escape, and people could only accompany Shao Fang to stay in Zhenjiang.
However, the current minister of Mozambique has no hope of holding Zhenjiang, and forcing him to stay will only add to the panic and instability, and will be useless to hold Zhenjiang.
Especially after people saw that Li Jin and Zhang Rong defected to the Wind Kingdom, instead of being punished by the Wind King, they were both reused, one was named a general, and the other was named a southeast patrol envoy, and the resistance in people's hearts was even weaker.
It was under this situation of internal and external troubles that the last major battle of Mozambique, the Battle of Zhenjiang, officially kicked off.
At present, there are more than 400,000 troops in Zhenjiang, including more than 100,000 cavalry, 100,000 forbidden troops in the capital, and 200,000 central troops.
On the side of the Fengyu Alliance, the number of troops has surged to one million.
Among them, there are more than 700,000 Feng Army, mainly the Plains Army, the Directly Affiliated Army, the Flying Dragon Army, the Ninth Army, and the Hundred Battles Army, and the Jade Army has more than 300,000 troops, most of which are the Central Army, and some of them are local armies that have been temporarily transferred to fight.
In terms of strength and combat power, the Fengyu coalition army has an overwhelming advantage at present, and what is even more unfavorable to the Mo army is that Zhenjiang's city defense is not stable.
The reason why the capital of Mozambique is known as a natural danger is because there is Zhenjiang as a barrier, and now that Zhenjiang is gone, the capital is completely exposed, and the poor city defense is too insignificant.
When the battle reached this level, the Fengyu coalition army was no longer in a hurry to attack the city, and first launched the tactics of attacking the heart, and in the name of the edict of the Son of Heaven, persuaded the defenders in the city to take the initiative to abandon the city and surrender.
At this time, the soldiers of the Mo army in Zhenjiang City were already panicked, there was no fighting spirit at all, and the remarks of the death of the country could be heard every day, coupled with the propaganda of the Fengyu coalition army outside the city, almost every night, a large number of deserters climbed down the city wall and threw themselves into the Fengyu coalition army.
The Fengyu coalition army only besieged the city for three days, and there were no less than 20,000 soldiers of the Mo army who defected.
Zhenjiang is now in internal and external difficulties, and life and death are only tied to the first line.
In this case, there are still generals who are loyal to Shao Fang and are willing to lead troops to battle.
The most active of these was Mozambique's lieutenant general Xu Hua.
He is an authentic general, he has no eloquence, and he does not have much commanding ability, but he is strong in spirit, brave and good at fighting, and he is a good hand at charging into battle.
He proposed to Shao Fang that he was willing to personally lead the cavalry out of the city and fight to the death with the Fengyu coalition army, if he could win, it would be the best, if he could not win, even if the whole army was wiped out and he died on the battlefield, he would also play the majesty of Mozambique.

In the current situation, Xu Hua still dared to go out of the city to fight with the enemy, Shao Fang was also deeply moved, he approved Xu Hua's request, and personally climbed the city gate tower to cheer for the cavalry corps commanded by Xu Hua.
At this time, Shao Fang didn't think that Xu Hua would be able to turn the tide of the battle and defeat the Fengyu coalition army, but Xu Hua had a saying in his heart, even if he wanted to die, he had to die with dignity, and he couldn't sit back and wait for death, and he wanted to fight the majesty of Mozambique with a head-to-head confrontation. 100,000 Mozambican cavalry, against millions of Fengyu coalition forces, the strength of the two sides is not at the same level at all.
For the Mo cavalry who took the initiative to go out of the city to fight, the Fengyu coalition army did not retreat in the camp, and the Plains Army, the Hundred Battles Army and the Ninth Army went out of the camp one after another to fight.
The two sides lined up and launched a large-scale confrontation in front of Zhenjiang City.
Cavalry has an advantage over infantry, but that's also relative, and if the difference in strength between the two sides is too great, the advantage of cavalry will be lost.
What's more, on the side of the wind army, there is also the Ninth Army that restrains the cavalry.
As the war drums of both sides beat and the trumpets sounded in unison, a fierce battle was about to break out.
At this time, the cavalry commanded by Xu Hua really had a sense of tragedy and grandeur that the strong man would never return, looking at the wind army battle formation in front of him, the Mo cavalry led by Xu Hua not only did not retreat, but also rushed straight up, facing the edge of the wind army.
Soon, the soldiers of the two sides came into contact with each other, and in an instant, the sound of collision on the battlefield was connected.
The galloping horses crashed into the shields of the infantry, and the infantry was certainly crushed and crushed, and the cavalry also turned on their backs.
In an instant, the soldiers who were in direct contact with each other fell together.
The wind army used its own flesh and blood to resist the charge of the Mo cavalry, and then, the shield soldiers retreated, and the spearmen stepped up, stabbing the Mo cavalry in front of them with their spears.
The Mo cavalry was also not to be outdone, brandishing swords and spears condescendingly on the horse, slashing and killing the wind soldiers below.
From the very beginning, the battle between the two sides fell into a life-and-death battle, with shouts of killing and screams spreading throughout the battlefield and beyond.
When the Mo cavalry was completely entangled by the infantry of the Wind Country, and the mobility was reduced to the minimum, the hoplite cavalry of the Wind Country joined the battle.
As soon as the hoplites entered the battlefield, the situation of the two sides was evenly matched.
The Mo cavalry could not stop the advance of the heavy cavalry, which was like a meat grinder when advancing, although it was slow, but it could strangle everything, tear everything apart, and groups of Mo cavalry fell under the hooves of the heavy cavalry.
Xu Hua is very brave, and Lingwu is also very fierce, but how can his two fists be able to defeat the four hands very quickly, he was entangled by several wind generals, and he was in a dilemma, and at this time, Qi Heng, who was holding the Nine Turns Soul Breaking Knife, rushed towards him quickly
