In the next few days, Shao Fang was no longer so relaxed in the change of Fengguo. The imperial edict of the son of heaven was being drafted. The joint attack of Fengmo on Ning was imminent. Tang Yin and Shao Fang began to divide and coordinate the specific time, place and general direction of the attack in detail.

Three days later, Shao Fang left Fengguo and returned to China for deployment. Tang Yin was also ready to set off for Hedong for the second personal expedition to Ningguo.

Groups of newly trained Fengguo recruits came into battle dressed up and were continuously dispatched to Hedong. A large number of materials, ordnance and grain were also transported with the recruits, and the gears of the war machine began to speed up.

It was not until the day before his departure that Tang Yin went to the palace to say goodbye to Yin rou.

Hearing that he was going to personally lead the Feng army to fight with the state of Ning, Yin Rou was surprised and worried. She subconsciously grabbed Tang Yin's sleeve and asked nervously, "haven't the two countries already negotiated peace? How can they fight again?"

Tang Yin said with ease: "the country of Ning has always been a tiger watching the country of Feng. The country of Ning will not die, and the country of Feng will never have peace."

"Then... Do you have to fight?" She tightened Tang Yin's sleeve.

Tang Yin nodded and said, "the arrow is on the string, how can we not send it?" After a pause, he patted Yan Rou's small hand and comforted in a soft voice: "don't worry, the war will end soon. For more than half a year and less than March, I'll take you to Liangzhou, Ningdu!"

He said easily, but Yan Rou was not relaxed at all. The war was changeable, and any accident could happen... She shook her head and forced herself not to think about bad places. She whispered, "can I... Go with you?"

Tang Yin smiled, raised her hand to her cheek and said, "rou'er, I'm satisfied with such a heart. Just wait for the news of my triumph in the palace."

"En..." Yan Rou also knew that he was a burden on the battlefield. He couldn't help anything, but needed the protection of others. She said with a lonely look: "Yin, you... Be careful, I'll wait for you."

Tang Yin didn't say anything more. He silently hugged her in his arms and sniffed the faint and charming fragrance on her.

Half a month later, Yin Zhun issued a call to denounce the treachery of Ning, and invited all kings of the world to denounce it.

If the two countries have not yet declared war, they should not respond to any call of arms issued at the same time.

By this time, Tang Yin had reached Hedong camp. With him were Qiu Zhen, Jiang Fan and the 15 generals elected by the Nawu campaign.

Now the troops of Hedong camp in Fengguo have exceeded 400000. The troops of the plain army, Sanshui army, directly subordinate army and Tianying army have reached more than 100000.

In the battle against Nanjing, the primary goal of the Feng army is to cross the Zhanghe River, defeat the Hexi camp of the Ning army and completely open the channel into Hexi county.

In the past, when the elder sun Yuanhong was guarding Hexi, Tang Yin suffered heavy losses twice and lost nearly 100000 people. Now the commander of Ningguo guarding Hexi has been replaced by Wei Zheng. Tang Yin doesn't want to lose again in Wei Zheng's hands.

After the discussion between Tang Yin and his generals, the battle plan was finally formulated. The Tianying army took the lead, attacked the Hexi camp in front, restrained the warships of Ningguo, and the plain army, Sanshui army and directly subordinate army detoured to the side crossing.

Although the Feng army has been trained in water warfare in Hedong camp for a long time, due to the limitation of ships and equipment, water warfare is still the weakness of the Feng army, and the first battle of crossing the water is also the most difficult for the Feng army.

On the day Tang Yin declared war on Ning, Feng Jun launched an attack in the morning of that day in order not to give Ning Jun too much time to prepare.

Because the task of the Tianying army was the most important and difficult, almost all the wooden boats in the wind army were assigned to the Tianying army. More than 100000 troops and nearly 20000 boats sailed out of Hedong camp and rowed straight to the opposite bank.

The Ning army is not unprepared for the sudden offensive launched by the Feng army. Wei Zheng's ability may not be as good as that of Chang sun Yuanhong, but he is also a famous general of Ningguo. After Fengning signed the peace treaty, he did not dare to take it lightly and constantly sent spies to monitor every move of Fengguo.

When the emperor issued a decree inviting King Ning into the wind, Wei Zheng had judged that it was a trap. When the king goes, there is no return. If he doesn't go, it will fall to the population. From then on, Wei Zheng began to actively prepare for the war without receiving the order of the imperial court.

The result was really expected by him, but the sudden participation of Mo country in the war was something he never thought of.

Hearing that there was a change in the Fengying camp, tens of thousands of ships came to our camp. Wei Zheng sneered and issued orders calmly to let our warships meet.

The ships of the Tianying army are close to 20000, while the ships of the Ning army are only hundreds, but the scale of the two sides is too different.

The warships of the Ning army are huge, tall and long. Most of them are divided into three or four layers. Each layer has dense arrow ports, and the hull is also wrapped with iron sheet. They are not afraid of collision. What's more, the broken crossbow that the wind army fell into the hands of the Ning army was wantonly imitated by Wei Zheng and equipped on various warships. With such powerful weapons, the combat effectiveness of the warships has been significantly improved to a higher level.

The ships of the two sides have just started fighting, with a high score.

Ning Jun was condescending on the big ship. First, he shot a huge crossbow and arrow. The crossbow and arrow hit the small wooden ship, smashing the hull in an instant, and the wind soldiers on it fell into the water one after another. There are also broken crossbows on the side of the wind army, but it doesn't hurt or itch to shoot on the warships of the Ning army. With such a large ship and huge hull, I don't know how many crossbows and arrows can sink.

The number of Fengjun is more than that of Ningjun, and the ships are several times that of Ningjun, but the combat effectiveness is not proportional.

Ziying is very clear about his weaknesses and the strengths of the enemy. He keeps giving orders, beating drums, beating drums, and then beating drums. The whole army rushes forward with great strength and must be close to the other side. As long as his soldiers can climb onto the other side's warship smoothly, the one on his side will win.

As the ships of both sides approached, the water war also became white hot.

The crossbows and arrows of both sides shuttled back and forth on the river. From time to time, the small boats on the side of the wind army were hit by crossbows and arrows and broke into boards. Countless soldiers fell into the water. Few were rescued by luck, and many were drowned by the river. On the River, there were floating corpses layer by layer, screaming and crying for help.

On the contrary, the warships of Ning Jun were also constantly shot by crossbows and arrows, especially the warships in front. The huge hull was filled with crossbows and arrows. The river poured into the ship along the breach, and then was poured out of the ship by Sergeant Ning's soldiers bucket by bucket. From time to time, Ning Bing in the cabin was hit and flew through his body by crossbows and arrows, and his death was very miserable.

With the further approach of the distance between the two sides, Ning army took the lead in launching arrow shooting.

At this time, the advantage of the tall hull was brought into play again. The powerful shooting from a commanding position enabled Ning Jun to shoot at the wind army, but the wind army could not shoot at Ning Jun. even if an arrow flew to the warship, it was only the end of a powerful crossbow and difficult to hurt people. What's more, Ning Jun was still hiding in the cabin with a hard hull as a cover.

During the battle, the power of Ning army's arrow array was fully demonstrated. After a round of arrow array, the attacked small boats were submerged by carved feathers, and the inside and outside of the hull were filled with dense arrows. The soldiers on board were inevitably hit by arrows, even under the cover of shields. Often all the soldiers on board were shot into hedgehogs.

Wei Zheng, who personally went out to supervise the battle, stood at the top of the handsome ship, looked up at the battlefield ahead and smiled confidently. The wind army wants to defeat its own giant warships with small wooden boats. Even if it invests more troops, it is just looking for its own death. This is not a battle at all. It is completely unilateral.

The battle continues, and the wind army is still making a desperate suicide charge, but the number of deaths has soared to 20000 or 30000.

When Wei Zheng felt that the overall situation was settled, suddenly, a general behind him pointed to the north and said in a startled voice, "general, no, there is wolf smoke in the North!"

Wei Zheng quickly turned his head and looked north. Isn't it? On the West Bank of Zhanghe River in the north, beacon towers everywhere have been lit, and black smoke is rolling into the sky.

It seems that the wind army not only attacked in this place, but also invested troops in the north.

Not knowing whether the wind troops were feigning or really attacking in the north, Wei Zheng dared not separate too many warships. He turned back and ordered the herald to mobilize 50 warships to the north for reinforcements.

He had just separated 50 warships, and then the smoke of the South rose again. Wei zhengru concocted it according to the law, and assigned 50 warships to reinforce the attacked sites in the south.

However, the Feng army invested in the south is not one army, but two armies, the plain army and the directly subordinate army.

Tang Yin, commander of the army directly under Tang Yin, forcibly crossed the river ten miles south of the Hexi camp of the Ningjun army. In order to express his determination to cross the river this time and to make the soldiers abandon their thoughts of greed for life and fear of death, Tang Yin personally led the army to fight. Because the ships were given to the Tianying army, Tang Yin didn't even have small wooden boats, but only the same raft.

His raft took the lead, rushed to the front and went straight to the opposite bank. The monarch could sacrifice his life and death and take the lead. The soldiers below had no idea of stealing life. People all held their strength and rowed wooden oars, following Tang Yin's raft.

Twenty miles to the south of Hexi camp, the place where the Fengjun army has been defeated twice in a row, is the main attack site of the plain army.

Xiao MuQing can still remember the scene of the plain army's disastrous defeat here last time. This time, he has made up his mind that he will be ashamed before he snows. Even if he uses people to fill in and pile up, he will rush to the opposite bank.

The plain army has never been defeated since its establishment. The only stain is in Zhanghe River. This time they fought in the same place again. All the officers and men of the whole army were boiling with blood. When crossing the river, most of the officers and men threw off their armor and went into battle shirtless. With a shield in one hand and a paddle in the other hand, they held a steel knife in their mouth. Their congested eyes quickly emitted red light and stared at the other bank. They drove on the river faster than Tang Yin's direct army.

The 50 warships of the Wei Zhengnan faction did not encounter the plain army, but first met the directly subordinate army led by Tang Yin.
