The princess and the lord are brothers and sisters

Chapter 66 The Battle of the 2 Armies

Standing on the watchtower, Yang Yingjun watched the warships lined up on the water in the north of the river, with flags fluttering. It seemed that the Northern Army had arrived and was ready to go to war at any time.

"Boss." Yan Feng walked behind him.

Yang Yingjun didn't look back: "How is things going?"

"Ten days ago, according to the commander's order, the 'Women's Army' was disguised and sent to the fishing villages in Jiangxia, disguised as mountain village girls. If all goes well, some of them may be able to infiltrate the army and drug their food and water. Etc. Tomorrow when the two armies are fighting, they will set fire to the camp, and the enemy will naturally be defeated."

"Where's Mrs. Bai?"

Yan Feng was stunned for a moment, and said: "Madam Bai insists on going together."

Yang Yingjun frowned, remained silent for a long time, and sighed: "This mission...is too dangerous..."

Yan Feng paused for a moment, then said in a gentle voice: "Use extraordinary means in extraordinary times, the coach should not think too much."

Yang Yingjun looked quietly at the calm river and remained silent.

"Look, coach! A small boat is coming this way."

Yang Yingjun cheered up and took a look, didn't he?The small boat seemed to appear out of nowhere, coming from the north of the river to this side, and it looked very small in the vast river.

"Is it a fishing boat?"

"No. In the past two days, both sides of the strait have been sounding the warning horn. During this period, there will be no people showing up. It seems that they are envoys from the enemy army."

Yang Yingjun said: "Go down and have a look."

When they got off the watchtower and walked to the river, the small boat came along with the wind and soon arrived in front of them.Yan Feng stopped in front of Yang Yingjun, and said, "Boss, beware of fraud."

Yang Yingjun looked at the flag waving in the wind on the boat, and said, "No."

The big "Yang" character was embroidered on the flag impressively.

"The guard next to Deputy Commander Yang, under the order of the Deputy Commander, send a letter to the commander of your army." A voice came from afar on the small boat.

Yan Feng signaled to the lieutenant next to him, and the lieutenant led the way.Soon, a small boat was sent out from here to meet the enemy's small boat. After some negotiations, the two small boats turned around and went back.

Soon, someone sent a letter, which read: Yang Pianran personally sent it.

Yang Yingjun opened it and took a look. Yan Feng saw his face was stern, and he didn't speak for a long time, so he hurriedly asked, "Boss, what's the matter?"

Yang Yingjun folded the letter silently, stuffed it back into the envelope, and said with a half-sigh: "Yang Rong wants to sever the relationship with me, and leave a letter as proof."

Yan Feng was startled, and said worriedly: "Your Majesty..."

"I can't blame him. When something happened to the Yang family, they wrote so many letters asking me for help, but I didn't respond. I'm afraid I hurt their hearts." Yang Yingjun took a deep breath and smiled slightly: "That's fine, Afterwards, the two armies will fight, and there will be no more worries.”

Yan Feng could only say dryly: "Your Majesty understands righteousness deeply."

Yang Yingjun remembered something again, and said: "Don't forget to arrange a boat to wait by the stone corner on the other side at midnight tonight."

"Don't worry, the coach, everything has been arranged."

That night, Yang Yingjun suffered from insomnia.

There is no way, no matter how calm you are, you can't hide your fear and panic when you are about to face the war.But as the commander-in-chief of the first army, he couldn't reveal the slightest bit of uneasiness, otherwise it would shake the morale of the army.

It would be nice if the beauty was there, maybe it would be easier for two people to chat and get through.

Yang Yingjun tried to close his eyes, but the image of corpses strewn across fields and blood flowing into rivers immediately appeared in his mind, and he had to sit up, staring blankly at the darkness.

After drinking a glass of water, he put on his clothes and walked out of the tent. The guards watching him couldn't help but startled when they saw him: "Commander."

Yang Yingjun looked at the hazy moonlight on the river, and asked casually, "What time is it?"

"Back to the coach, it's already three o'clock."

Yang Yingjun pondered for a while, and said, "Go and call General Yan over."

Yan Feng came over quickly, with a nervous expression on his face: "Boss, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, don't be nervous." Yang Yingjun folded his arms and looked at the peaceful river, and said, "I was just thinking, taking advantage of the night and the fog, whether I should come to a night attack."

Yan Feng was startled: "Night attack?"

"Yeah, wouldn't it be nice to be caught off guard?"

Yan Feng said: "But the coach, the original plan..."

"We are conducting a surprise attack now, killing the enemy army by surprise, and it is also convenient for the 'Women's Army' to set fire to the rear, and maybe burn their food and grass. Then, they can run out in the chaos and get on the ship we arranged to meet at Shijiao Come back, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?"

Yan Feng looked at him with gentle eyes: "Is the coach worried about Mrs. Bai and the others?"

Yang Yingjun was noncommittal: "Even if they are arrested and taken to the military camp, they are still lowly military prostitutes. It is too risky to let them go to the kitchen to dispense medicine. Let's make this decision. Don't sound the horn, call everyone and gather."

Years of military service has given Yang Rong the habit of staying awake even when he sleeps, so when he heard a horn suddenly sounded outside, he woke up immediately, put on his armor and rushed out of the camp.

There was chaos in the barracks, Yang Rong grabbed a night watchman and asked, "What's going on?"

"The enemy is attacking at night," the commander Ji Guozhong answered him. He walked over solemnly and said, "The river is foggy tonight. They took advantage of the cover of night to approach silently. After crossing the center of the river, they approached It was just discovered by the sentries in front of you. Deputy Marshal Yang, I now order you to lead [-] troops to meet the enemy head-on, use [-] fireboats to open the way, and the left and right vanguards will each lead [-] troops to attack from the two wings."

Yang Rong said solemnly: "The last general takes orders."

"General Tian, ​​you lead the army to take cover in a small boat."

"The last general takes orders."

"General Wei, you lead the catapult battalion and artillery battalion to guard the river bank, and find a way for me to drive the enemy ships to the bottom of the river!"

"The last general takes orders."

Although Ji Guozhong acted calm, he was still faintly uneasy.The commander of the enemy army is Princess Zhennan, a girl, he didn't take it seriously, but their general Yan Feng is a general under the command of the undefeated navy master Ye Zhouxing. He has rich experience in water combat and is an opponent that should not be underestimated.

He boarded the watchtower to watch the battle. There were many large and small boats on the foggy river, flags of various colors were waving in the wind, the drums and horns of the two armies were loud, and the shouts of the soldiers resounded through the sky.Seeing his warship No. [-] rushing against the waves against the west wind, riding the wind like a broken bamboo, the corners of Ji Guozhong's tense mouth relaxed slightly.

But soon, he discovered something was wrong.

The warships of the two armies clashed. The soldiers of the northern army stood on the deck, staggering, and fell into the river before the enemy came to kill them.On the other hand, the southern army was walking on the ground like walking on the ground, stabbing spears and wielding knives, and they were extremely brave.

Just as I was in a hurry, I suddenly heard the sound of the horn in the army, three short and two long, representing danger.Ji Guozhong rushed down from the watchtower in a hurry, and someone had already reported: "Commander! There was a fire in the army, and the granary was burned..."

"What!?" Ji Guozhong's face changed drastically, and he shouted in a deep voice, "Quick! Ming Jin withdraws!"

Yang Yingjun was watching the battle from the watchtower, watching the soldiers of the Northern Army fall into the water one after another, drowning countless, but his heart was not at all relaxed, instead his face became paler and paler.Suddenly hearing the sound of horns on the other side, the military counselor stated that he was beside Yang Yingjun and said, "Commander, the enemy has retreated, should we take advantage of the victory and pursue it?"

Yang Yingjun hesitated, and said: "No, the number of enemy troops far exceeds ours. We win in water battles, but it may not be so when we land. Order Mingjin to withdraw troops."

Yang Yingjun got off the watchtower and went to the riverside to wait for the army's triumphant return. He saw Yan Feng standing on the deck of the warship, leading hundreds of boats, big and small, and returning with the wind.Yang Yingjun hinted from the bottom of his heart that he should smile and cheer, not to affect morale just because people died in the war and felt unhappy.But the smile on the corner of his mouth that hadn't opened in the future froze completely after seeing the person kneeling on the ground next to Yan Feng who was firmly pinned down.

"Commander, the prisoner looks like..." The voice of the statement gradually became excited: "It's the enemy's deputy commander!"

The soldiers in the Jiang'an dry village raised their arms and shouted in unison: "Aww——General Yan! General Yan! General Yan..."

The scene is spectacular, the momentum is huge, accompanied by the beating of war drums, it is extremely exciting.

But Yang Yingjun's heart became cold little by little.
