V2.Chapter 444

The initiative of the Mozambican navy was mainly fire attack. Half of the 200 large ships of the Fengguo Navy were completely burned down, and some were damaged and in urgent need of repair.

In the first battle in Zhenjiang, the Fengyu allied forces suffered a big defeat.

Not only did the 5000 soldiers of the war army die in a dark way, but also more than half of the ships that were finally transported from the Fengguo mainland were damaged, which was like a blow to the morale of the Fengyu coalition.

Later, Tang Yin also summarized this matter in his letter to the court of Fengguo: if a country has no water army, it is like losing limbs and arms. In front of the enemy's powerful navy, it will never dare to fight hard. It can only avoid its edge, sneak away from the side door, and engage in indiscriminate activities. Shame! This is a great humiliation!

He blamed the failure on the Fengguo court for not taking precautions, not paying attention to the water army, and not training the water army, so that he did not dare to have a frontal confrontation with the water army of the state of Mo on the Zhenjiang battlefield. Therefore, he was exploited by the enemy and caused a series of undue losses to his side.

Tang Yin's reply to the imperial court, especially at the end with several humiliations, also spurred the civil and military ministers in the court to a great extent. It was not until the defeat of the first battle of Zhenjiang water war that Feng Kingdom really paid attention to the water army.

Of course, this is also later. After all, Rome was not built in a day, and the distant water can't quench the thirst near.

Now, the combat effectiveness of the Fengguo navy has been reduced, which can no longer pose a threat to the Mozambican Navy on the south bank and completely lose the strength to compete with the Mozambican Navy. At this time, the war has been very unfavorable to the Fengyu coalition army. Zhenjiang seems to have really become an insurmountable barrier. However, if the war continues to be delayed, the Fengyu coalition army will consume not only huge amounts of grain and grass, but also the best fighters. Once the East China Sea Navy of Mozambique arrives at Zhenjiang, the Fengyu coalition army's river crossing operation will completely lose hope.

Tang Yin, of course, should be held accountable to He Yi, the commander of the water army of Feng state, for the sneak attack by the water army of Mo state and the loss of so many ships.

He Yi's reply to Tang Yin was that he thought his main force would cross Zhenjiang through Huishui Bay, so he was also careless about prevention. When the Mozambican Navy sneaked in, most of his soldiers were not on the ship, but rested in the camp to prepare for the war. After hearing the alarm, he hurried out of the camp and returned to the ship, many ships had been attacked by the other party's rockets and started a fire. If he hadn't led his soldiers to rescue desperately and fight back against the enemy, I'm afraid there would be more ships burned.

The implication is that the main responsibility is not on him. He not only has no mistakes, but also has merit.

Of course, Tang Yin couldn't accept such words. He didn't cross examine too much. He Yi Yi was directly arrested for dereliction of duty and sent back to Yancheng to be handled by Zuo Xiang Qiu Zhen and the military administration hall. The two vice generals who took over the position of He Yi were sun Bing and Xu Yan.

When he Yi made a big mistake, the two Ning people, who were born in an orthodox navy general, finally became their daughter-in-law, replaced He Yi and became the second master of the navy of the wind country.

No matter how Sun Bing and Xu Yan are, they are indeed much better than he Yi in water warfare.

Now the ships of Fengguo are seriously damaged. Sun Xu and Tang Yin proposed that they immediately mobilize Ningdi craftsmen to rush over and build the ships on the North Bank of Zhenjiang. They should at least ensure that they have the strength of a frontal battle with the water army of Mozambique.

Tang Yin felt that what sun Bing and Xu Yan said was very right. While recruiting boat craftsmen in Ningdi according to their proposal, he ordered his subordinates to recruit local craftsmen in the country of Mo with heavy money.

I don't know if it's too late to make up for it. Tang Yin can only do his best and listen to fate.

On the other side, a San and a Si followed Tang Yin's will and took people to Yingjiang town to take the old mayor and all his family members back to the barracks.

Knowing that the mayor of Yingjiang town had been brought back, Tang Yin's anger, which had not completely subsided, ran again. He said in a deep voice, "take him to the account of the Chinese army to see me!"

The old mayor was escorted by Feng Jun to the account of the Chinese army. When he arrived, Tang Yin was sharpening his knife with leather sand. The steel knife bent like a crescent moon shone coldly and stabbed people's eyes.

At this time, the old mayor didn't know what had happened. The whole person trembled. After coming in, the old man didn't dare to see who was in the big tent. He knelt down at once and knocked his head again and again: "see you, little man..."

"Do you still know me?" Tang Yin glanced at him and continued to grind the blade with leather sand.

Hearing his words, the old mayor felt familiar. He looked up and was shocked.

A few days ago, Tang Yin was wearing casual clothes. Now he has changed into gorgeous brocade belts. It is the so-called that people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. At this time, Tang Yin has less softness, but a little more coldness and hostility.

The old town paused for a moment and said in surprise, "eunuch?"

"I don't deserve it." Tang Yin sneered and said, "my king's name is Tang Yin. You can call me king of the wind and call him by his name, but don't call me eunuch." He put down the Pisha, took out his handkerchief and gently wiped the knife surface.

Tang Yin? Tang Yin, the wind king! The old town's head buzzed, and he could hardly believe his ears. The young man who saved his daughter was Tang Yin, the king of the wind! Tang Yin knelt and stared at him for a long time.

Regardless of how he reacted when he learned his true identity, Tang Yin's eyes still fell on his machete and said softly, "you have the courage to collude with Mo Jun on the other side and deceive the king. Do you know this is a capital crime to implicate the nine families?"

The old town excites the spirit to fight a cold war and suddenly returns to his mind. He stammers and asks, "no... I don't know what your highness King Feng said!"

Boom! Tang Yin slapped the machete in his hand on the table, looked directly at the old mayor with fierce eyes, and said in a grim voice: "do you dare to pretend to be confused with the king? Just now, when the king's army crossed the river from Huishui Bay, it was secretly plotted by the mo army. Five thousand soldiers have no bones. Even if you have a hundred heads, it's not enough for the king to cut off!"

The old town finally understood what had happened. He was paralyzed on the ground and shouted: "wronged, villain wronged, villain dares to swear to heaven that he will never know that there is an ambush in backwater Bay. Otherwise, even if the villain has great courage, he would not dare to recommend backwater bay to his Highness the king of the wind. His Highness the king of the wind will make a clear observation and watch his Highness the king of the wind!"

"Don't know there's an ambush? Ha ha -" Tang Yin laughed angrily and said, "in the south of Huishui Bay, the river is full of spikes, and it's difficult for ships to get close. You say there are people fishing secretly there. I want to know how they fish on the river full of spikes!"

"This..." the old mayor was also silly. He didn't know what was going on in the south of Huishui Bay. After all, he wasn't the one who went fishing, but some brave fishermen. He just learned from the fishermen that there was no mo army sentry around Huishui Bay, and it was safe to go out. He didn't know anything about the arrangement of spikes under the river in the south.

But now if you want to explain these things again, you can't explain clearly. The old mayor was so anxious that he was sweating all over his head and could only shout grievances.

The more he shouted injustice, the more angry Tang Yin became. There was no warning. The latter suddenly grabbed the machete on the table and waved it. The machete cut into an electric light and shot straight at the old mayor.

The old mayor didn't even make a reaction, so he was hit by the flying knife in his chest. There was a flutter in his earrings. The blade entered from his front chest and poked out behind him.

As Tang Yin threw out the Throwing Knife, others also flashed close to the old mayor, took out the machete quickly, and then waved it horizontally. With a click, the old mayor's head fell in response to the sound, but there was no blood gushing, and a steaming fog came out from around him.

Tang Yin sucked up the aura floating in the air, and the remaining anger shouted to the left and right: "kill all the men in the thief's family, and hand over the women's family members to the hundred battles army."

"Yes!" The bodyguards on the left and right quickly agreed and ran out. Then, another bodyguard came in and dragged the old mayor's body out.

The knife cut the old mayor. Tang Yin took the knife and sat back on the bedding. At this time, he calmed down and searched the soul of the old mayor for the specific details of his affair with Mo Jun on the south bank.

But to Tang Yin's surprise, since Mo Jun withdrew to the south of Zhenjiang, the old mayor never had any contact with Mo Jun again. As for the spikes arranged under the huishuiwan River, the old town really didn't know.

Didn't you kill him by mistake? Tang Yin frowned secretly. If the old mayor didn't collude with Mo Jun, how could Mo Jun set up an ambush in Huishui Bay? Was that set by Mo Jun long ago? This seems to be the only thing that makes sense.

After careful analysis, Tang Yin can probably confirm that Mo Jun must have felt that it was difficult to deploy defense around Huishui Bay, so he simply abandoned it. However, in order to prevent his side from sneaking across the river from Huishui Bay, he arranged spikes under the river there early.

It can be seen that Gao Hang, the new commander-in-chief of the Mozambican Navy, is much smarter and more cunning than he thought, and the deployment on the south bank is really watertight.

Knowing that he had wronged the old mayor, Tang Yin did not reclaim his life. He could only make mistakes. He still executed all the men in the old mayor's family, and the women's dependents were rewarded to the soldiers of the hundred battles army.

If the truth is published, it will damage the prestige of his monarch. Secondly, let the soldiers know that there is such a powerful commander on the other side, which will also cause a certain blow to their own morale, for fear of causing fear of war and panic.

Tang Yin can hide from others, but he can't hide from himself. He also has a headache about how to defeat Mo's new handsome Gao Hang.

After the defeat of the first battle of the Fengyu coalition army, five days later, the Jade King lingshuang arrived at the Fengyu coalition army camp. Lingshuang was accompanied by the central army of the 100000 jade state and the 20000 Feiyu army led by Qingyu.
