V2.Chapter 452

Li Jin was ordered by Shao Fang to command the central army to recapture the Zhenjiang navy camp occupied by the Feng army.

At present, there are not many central troops stationed in Zhenjiang, with a force of 500000. Even if the cavalry is removed, at least 400000 infantry can be used. However, Shao Fang sent only 200000 troops to Li Jin, and Li Jin himself did not report much hope for recapturing the navy camp.

Although he is a senior general of Mozambique, he just wants to have his name. In fact, he is empty, has little real talent and practical knowledge, and has very little practical experience. According to the past experience of Mozambique, all wars led by Li Jin are deadlocked in the end.

This time, he was dispatched by Shao Fang to fight back against the occupied navy camp. He didn't know at all. So far, he didn't know the specific strength of the enemy, which regiment occupied Zhenjiang navy camp, or even who the enemy's commander was. This was tantamount to making him a blind Commander to command the battle, How can Li Jin, who has no confidence in his ability, have a high fighting spirit?

He left the palace with Gao Hang. On the way, Li Jin kept asking Gao hang about the enemy. The latter also knows very little. I just heard that the enemy has no less than 100000 troops and strong combat power. I don't know any other information.

After hearing this, Li Jin's heart suddenly cooled. His military knowledge told him that only when he was three times as strong as the enemy could he attack the fortified positions. If the enemy had more than 100000 troops, how could he lead only 200000 troops to fight down, not to mention that his opponent was still a wind army known for its bravery and good fighting.

He sighed, shook his head again and again, and muttered, "this war is very difficult, this war is very difficult..."

Seeing his appearance, Gao Hang also lamented in his heart that at the time of the war, the generals as the commander-in-chief have no confidence. How can the soldiers below have the determination to fight hard and kill the enemy?

He said in a positive tone: "the senior general can rest assured as soon as possible. We can do both. The senior general leads the infantry to attack the enemy head-on, and the final general leads the water army to attack the enemy from the water. Under the attack from front to back, we don't worry about the enemy."

After hearing this, Li Jin sneered at himself and said, "if the enemy is so easily defeated, they will not be the wind army, and our navy camp will not be lost."

Before the war, Gao Hang was so angry that he wanted to slap him twice, if he wasn't a general. After leaving the palace, Li Jinzheng was about to go to the military camp outside the city to take some soldiers. At this time, he happened to meet the oncoming Taifu Zhang Rong.

Zhang Rong also heard the news that the Fengjun army had captured the camp of Zhenjiang water division. He couldn't sit still at home. He thought of the palace to see what was going on. As a result, he met Li Jin and Gao Hang on the way.

After the meeting, Zhang Rong couldn't attend to the greetings. Zhang Rong urgently asked, "I heard that Zhenjiang water division camp was lost. What's the matter?"

"Alas!" Li Jin sighed, raised his head to Gao Hang and said, "it's better for General Gao to talk about it!" The implication is that Gao Hang, as the commander of the Navy, has the most say in how to lose the navy camp.

Gao Hang couldn't hear Li Jin's complaint and sarcasm. His jade face turned red and he was patient to tell Zhang Rong the whole story.

Zhang Rong doesn't care about the whole story. He only cares about whether the news is true or false. Now his heart is completely cooled to hear that the navy camp is indeed occupied by the wind army.

At this time, he had made a conclusion in his heart that the country of Mo was dead. If we didn't let the Fengjun cross the river, Moguo might be able to support it. Now that the Fengjun has crossed the river, it will not be far from the fall of the capital. Now, I should plan for my future retreat. Thinking of this, he secretly congratulated himself. Fortunately, he had many contacts with Fengguo at the beginning, and there were two fine works of Fengren in his family, Liang Ren and Liu Yang. Through them, he could have a direct dialogue with the court of Fengguo.

After hearing Gao Hang's story, Zhang Rong stood there motionless and didn't say a word. His face was cloudy and sunny and changeable. Li Jin sighed again and said, "Lord Zhang, I'm going to go to the camp outside the city to call troops. I'll leave first."

"I will go with the general!" Zhang Rong came back and said quickly.

Zhang Rong is a civil servant. Without Shao Fang's advice, he has no right or qualification to participate in military affairs. However, he is a Taifu, a senior official of zhengyipin, and has a good personal relationship with Li Jin. In this critical situation, Li Jin is too lazy to pay attention to so much.

But before Li Jin could speak, Gao Hang said, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate for Taifu to go to the military camp without the king's will!"

Li Jin's face sank and said to Gao Hang, "General Gao, go to the camp of Zhenjiang water division immediately and bring all the cavalry stationed outside the camp back to the capital without mistake." Li Jin and Zhang Rong belong to the same faction in the court and are old friends. Gao Hang is just a foreign general temporarily transferred to the capital. Of course, Li Jin will not hurt the friendship between himself and his colleagues because of him.

The general is the first of the generals. Gao Hang dare not disobey his orders. The latter looked at Li Jin and Zhang Rong. Finally, he could only respond reluctantly: "yes, I will obey!"

Looking at Gao Hang's hasty departure, Li Jin snorted and laughed, muttering, "something that doesn't know good or bad." Then he said to Zhang Rong, "Lord Zhang, Gao Hang is just a hick from a small place. Don't mind."

"Alas, now the safety of you and me is tied to the front line. Who has to take care of such a small matter?" Zhang Rong said in a positive tone: "how many percent of the generals are sure to win this time when they lead troops to attack the Feng army?"

Li Jin smiled and smiled bitterly. He shook his head and said, "Lord Zhang doesn't know the courage of the wind army. Even if I fight head-on, I'm not sure of winning, not to mention fighting a tough battle this time... To tell the truth, I'm not even sure of 10%!"

While talking, he shook his head and paused. Li Jin turned his eyes, looked at Zhang Rong squarely and said, "Lord Zhang has always been resourceful. I don't know if there is a good plan this time?"

Zhang Rong's heart moved. If he could persuade Li Jin to defecte to Fengguo, he would have made great contributions to Fengguo. However, Li Jin's incompetence and timidity would be attributed to his incompetence, but it would not be easy for him to betray mo.

While thinking, he said: "according to Gao Hang, the wind army has a large number of troops. The general only leads 200000 soldiers to attack, which is undoubtedly to hit the stone with an egg!"

Li Jin nodded repeatedly and said, "it is precisely because the war is difficult that I asked Lord Zhang for advice."

Zhang Rong didn't dare to persuade Li Jin to surrender now. He pretended to be thinking, shook his head slowly and said, "it's difficult! No matter what way you think, it's very difficult to fight this war! It's better for the general to invite more troops from the king. As long as there are enough troops, it's impossible to recapture the camp of Zhenjiang water division."

It's strange if the king agrees! Zhang Rong's heart is like a mirror. Now the king can send 200000 troops to Li Jin, which is the limit. He will certainly not send more soldiers to him. The king is too suspicious. Under the current tense situation, the king must control most of his troops in his own hands.

Zhang Rong deliberately said this when he knew it was not feasible. After hearing this, Li Jin shook his head like a rattle drum. He repeatedly said, "it's impossible! The king can't give me more soldiers and horses. Lord Zhang doesn't know the king's behavior. In the current situation, even if the king sends me 200000 soldiers and horses, I'm afraid they are worried about change!"

"If so, I can't help it." Zhang Rong shrugged helplessly and said to Li Jin, "the general can only ask for his own blessing."

After all, that doesn't mean you didn't say it! Li Jin was so anxious that he rubbed his hands and asked, "doesn't lord Zhang have any way?"

Zhang Rong pretended to be joking and said with a smile, "why don't I find some detailed works of the wind country and introduce them to the senior general? As long as the senior general shows his attitude and is willing to defecte from the wind country, even if the capital falls, the senior general can still enjoy high officials and high salaries and wealth."

When Li Jin saw his smiling appearance, he only thought he was joking. He glanced at him angrily and said helplessly, "my Taifu, when are you still joking with me?"

Seeing this, Zhang Rong knew it well. It's not time to persuade Li Jin to surrender and defecte.

He smiled on his back and said, "there must be a way to the front of the mountain, and the ship will be straight to the bridge. The general doesn't have to worry too much. As a minister, he can only do his best to accept the orders of the king in the face of danger."

"Alas!" Li Jin forced his face to smile and nodded reluctantly.

Li Jin has no hope for this war report, but it is not easy for the wind army occupying the Zhenjiang navy camp on the other side.

The strength of the Feng army is far from 100000, only more than 30000 people. It's not easy to defend such a large Zhenjiang navy camp with such a small strength.

Fortunately, his Navy returned to the north bank and will deliver more troops and materials. Now Tang Yin can only stick to it and dare not take the initiative to fight.

It was under such circumstances that Li Jin led 200000 central troops to the camp of zhenjiangshui division, opened the formation and assumed the posture of strong attack.

Now it's dawn. Seeing the overwhelming array of Mozambican troops outside the camp, and the lines and rows of the regiment, Tang Yin's heart is also trembling. Although he has already prepared in his heart, he has a premonition that Mozambican troops will be more ferocious and more powerful in the next round of counterattack.

He asked Lotte and Aijia around him and said, "when will the second batch of soldiers of our army arrive?"

Aijia said with a puzzled face: "just received the news, the fleet of Zhenjiang Navy is cruising on the river, and our warships dare not cross the river rashly."

Tang Yin frowned and asked suspiciously, "haven't you beaten away the Zhenjiang water army?"

"Report back to the king. It is reported that the Shuai flag of the main ship of Zhenjiang navy has been changed to the flag of Gaohang. It seems that Gaohang is personally in charge of Zhenjiang Navy. Generals sun Bing and Xu Yan dare not go to war rashly." Edgar explained.
