After hearing Cheng Jin's reply, Tang Yin could not help but frown. If even Cheng Jin felt that it was difficult to swim through it, then it would be difficult for ordinary soldiers.

Zhao An said from the side: "This general definitely doesn't know how to swim. Otherwise, with the help of a rope, it would save us a lot of energy."

Tang Yin shrugged his shoulders and laughed: "Most of my soldiers do not know how to swim."

Cheng Jin's eyes turned, and said: "Master, in order to prevent it from sinking in the water, I have to use up too much effort to grab hold of the rope, this is the most tiring point, if I can cross the river with a wooden stake, then it would be twice the result with half the effort."

"Oh?" Hearing that, Tang Yin's eyes lit up, after pondering for a moment, he had an idea. He smiled, and said to Cheng Jin and the others: Let's go back! He then looked at Zhao An and said: "Follow me back to the County Capital to receive your reward."

Hearing the word 'reward', Zhao An immediately beamed with joy, his mouth could not even close, and nodded his head in agreement.

The four of them returned on the same path.

On the way back, Tang Yin did not go back on his promise. He did give Zhao An a hundred gold as a reward, but he did not tell him to leave immediately. In Tang Yin's opinion, if he were to tell him about this matter and receive the bounty, he would probably run over to Jiangbei Province and tell Zhan Wushuang about this matter and receive a bit of the bounty. The human heart was dangerous, he had to be on guard, this was Tang Yin's way of doing things.

When they brought Zhao An away, Tang Yin did not delay any further, and immediately passed down the order to gather all the generals.

Very quickly, Shangguan Yuan, Zhan Hu, Zi Ying and the others arrived one after another. After everyone had arrived, Tang Yin narrated the whole matter of the Crossing River Strings that Zhao An had provided. Hearing his words, everyone was both surprised and happy, this truly was a pie from the sky, as long as they could secretly pass through Pan River and get close to the enemy, then the ten thousand over Peng Army on the other side of the river would be nothing to worry about.

Shangguan Yuan stepped in and bowed, then said seriously: "Sir, this general is willing to lead two thousand brothers to cross the river first. This time, we will definitely wipe out all the Peng Army on the other side. Since Shangguan Yuan had joined the army, although there had been times when he had lost, he had never lost as miserably or so vainly as this time. He had not even been able to harm a single enemy, but his brothers had all been killed.

Tang Yin laughed as he looked at Shangguan Yuanyang and shook his head, saying, "Yuanyun, there's no rush, we have to consider this matter carefully." As he spoke, he looked towards Zi Ying and said: "General Zi Ying, we still have to rush the raft to cross the river. Moreover, we have to increase our power so that the opposing Peng Army thinks that we continue to use the raft to cross the river."

Zi Ying understood that Tang Yin was using a tactic to hide things from the world, and laughed. He nodded and said, "Yes, Master, I understand!"

And …" Tang Yin took out a silk cloth from his side and handed it to his tassel. When he opened it, he saw that there was a rectangular drawing on top of the silk cloth. The cloth was half a circle in front of him, half a foot wide and half a meter long. Not to mention that Zi Ying couldn't understand it, everyone else was baffled as to what Tang Yin was drawing.

Tang Yin said with a smile, "General Zi Ying, according to this drawing, make an identical, ordinary sized wooden board, don't be too thick, and don't be too thin, just half an inch will suffice. You have to make 2000 of them in two days, can you do it?"

The wooden board was easy to make, but Zi Ying did not understand what Tang Yin wanted the 2000 board to do. He questioned, "My lord, the purpose of these wooden planks is …"

"Cross the river!" Tang Yin squinted his eyes and said: "General Cheng Jin has already tested it himself, even with the help of the rope, if one does not know how to swim, passing through the Pan River is still not easy, so after creating two thousand planks, our soldiers can lie down on them, and as long as we hold on to the rope and do not get washed away by the river, we will be able to cross the river even faster and save energy."

"So that's how it is!" After listening to Tang Yin's explanation, everyone came to a realization and looked again at Tang Yin's drawing. Although it was only four lines, the more they looked, the more exquisite they felt, especially the front and back half circles, were more suitable to slide in water. Zi Ying could not help but praise: "Master! I immediately told the soldiers to rush it out. "

"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded.

The picture he had drawn was not an illusory one. It was inspired by the surfing skateboard. Although he had never played it before, he had seen it before and felt that it was very suitable to use it to cross the river.

After pausing for a moment, he continued, "It is reported that, in two days, with General Xiao Muqing in the lead, a hundred thousand Generals And Soldiers of Pingyuan Army s will arrive at the Lishan City, and at that time, our army's wooden planks will just happen to be complete. At that time, our army will be in a position to attack from the front, attracting the enemy's attention, and secretly, Yuan Que will lead two thousand soldiers to sneak over from the shore of the East of City.

Everyone admired Tang Yin's meticulous arrangements from the bottom of their hearts. They rubbed their fists and rubbed their palms together, then stood up and cupped their hands, and said: "Master is wise, I will obey!"

"Alright, since you all agree, then, as long as the brothers from Pingyuan Army arrive, we will immediately attack the enemies from North Bank!"

"Yes!" "My Lord!"

Now, the morale of the generals rose once again. Shangguan Yuan, in particular, stood aside, his eyes shining brightly. He wished he could fly to the other side and kill everyone on Peng Army so that he could avenge his five thousand brothers who had died in battle.

Tang Yin looked at the extremely excited Shangguan Yuanyang, then turned to Zhan Hu and said: "Zhan Hu, this time, you and Yuanyu shall travel together."

Zhan Hu was not as brave as Shangguan Yuan, but Zhan Hu was meticulous and his mind was calm. With Zhan Hu by his side, Tang Yin felt more at ease.

With regards to his arrangements, Zhan Hu had no objection to it. Instead, he interfered and received his orders, causing Shangguan Yuan's face to darken. Without even looking at Zhan Hu, he asked Tang Yin: "Does Master think that I alone cannot command two thousand brothers?"

Tang Yin understood Shangguan Yuan's temperament, if he said that he would not be at ease and let Shangguan Yuan lead the army over alone, then Shangguan Yuan would be mad. He had already thought about the wording, smiled, and said: Don't underestimate the enemy, don't forget, there's a Divine Pool expert among the enemy, Zui Fengjian, he is so powerful, no one can match him in our army, only you can contend against him, if you get entangled with Zui Fengjian, my army's two thousand soldiers might not be able to fight against ten thousand enemies!

"Oh!" So the lord was worried about this! " When Shangguan Yuan heard this, he laughed, raised his head, looked at the generals on the left and right, his smug look naturally appeared, he interfered and said: "Rest assured my lord, this time I will definitely chop Zui Fengjian into pieces, and use his head to pay respects to Brother Jiang Mo's spirit in heaven!"

Tang Yin slowly nodded his head. Whether Zui Fengjian was on the other side or not, he did not know, but even if he was, he believed that the current Zui Fengjian was definitely not a match for Shangguan Yuan. After all, at the top of the mountain, the two blades he had struck Zui Fengjian with were extremely heavy, and his opponent was not Spirit Cultivator of Dark, so it was impossible for him to recover in a short period of time.

The Sky Eye and Earth Web's scouting were correct. In two days, their Pingyuan Army had arrived at the Lishan City as scheduled.

From top to bottom, the soldiers were all loose, especially after entering the Gaochuan County. Generals And Soldiers of Pingyuan Army was not used to the high temperature and heat, so many of the soldiers took off their uniforms and pants, looking out of place.

Because Pingyuan Army was not a light weapon, the army carried a large amount of food, supplies and large scale siege weapons, thus the speed at which the troops marched was much slower, Tang Yin and his group had already been delayed for almost ten days before they managed to catch up. However, the speed of the Pingyuan Army was still considered fast, and behind them were Sanshui Army and Chifeng Army. As for the twenty thousand Pisa Cavalry, they had not even entered the Gaochuan County at all, allowing the cavalry to battle in the mountains was equivalent to pushing them into a pit of fire.

As the hundred thousand Pingyuan Army entered the Lishan City, the aura of the Tianyuan Army immediately grew stronger. The small Lishan City could not tolerate so many troops either, so the Pingyuan Army camp was planted on the shore of the Pan River, and from the other side, they looked in that direction. There were flags everywhere, guards everywhere, and the tents were side by side, without any end in sight.

Seeing the formation on the other side, even though they had the support of the Pan River, the Peng Army soldiers still couldn't help but feel fear in their hearts.

In the morning of the second day since the arrival of the Pingyuan Army, Tang Yin gave the order to attack.

In these past few days, Tianyuan Army had continuously built around five hundred wooden rafts, and now, all of them had been dragged into the river bank. Team after team of Tianyuan Army began boarding the wooden rafts, taking the stance of charging towards the other side. Just as the generals were waiting for Tang Yin to give the order to attack, Tang Yin walked out of the carriage, passed through the people on the shore and directly landed on a wooden raft.

Seeing Tang Yin suddenly board the raft, all the generals were shocked. They all rushed forward at the same time and asked, "Master … You... What are you doing? "

Tang Yin looked at the generals, then turned his head to look at the soldiers on the raft on both sides. He shouted loudly, "Three days ago, right here, our army lost 6000 soldiers.

"No!"

Hearing Tang Yin's question, the soldiers on the raft replied in unison.

Compared to the land in the water, on the land, they were not afraid of any single one of them. Even if the enemy had ten thousand horses from the Chiliarch, they would still dare to rush forward to fight. But in the water, the Tianyuan Army warriors all felt a sense of powerlessness.

No matter how fierce the enemy's retaliation was, we must still push ourselves to the other side. This time, I will fight alongside my brothers, live, live together with my brothers, die together with me, die together with my brothers, now, are you guys still afraid? "
