Chapter 622: Jiang Defense Differences

Obviously, this is a very formidable opponent, but without any fame or prestige, because until this time, his experience of leading troops had been in the far south, or even overseas, which no one knew about, or even ten years ago.

After listening to Yan Chongjie's key retelling of him, Yan Liang already had a basic judgment in his heart about this Yang Congyi, who had not yet met, the other party was definitely a brave general who could charge into battle, and a handsome man who was proficient in the art of war and could use it flexibly, and all the battles that the other party participated in commanding were all victorious, almost all of them were big victories with less, this is definitely a terrible opponent, maybe it can really be compared to Yue Fei and Liang Wang Zongbi.

When the Song Kingdom is always facing the danger of destroying the country, a famous general who is the best in the world can appear and turn the tide, is this fate?

I don't believe in fate, if I believe in fate, I would have died more than ten years ago, where did I come from now Dajin Emperor!

Wan Yan Liang roared angrily in his heart, since he has led the army here, no matter whether he can destroy the Song State or not, he must set foot on the land on the other side of the Yangtze River again!

"Is there any information about Yang Congyi's family?" Wan Yanliang said, reported the heavy festival into his arms, and touched his hands under his clothes.

Chongjie twisted his waist, picked up the papers again, and said after a while: "He became a relative after returning from the first voyage to sea, his wife's life is unknown, and it is rumored that he knew a Taoist when he was chasing fugitives in Tianzhu Mountain, and he knew when he was still vulgar and became his wife." Four or five years ago, he married a second lady, who was an official eunuch, proficient in calligraphy and painting, and had gone to sea with the Hui Yi fleet, although he was already twenty-five or sixteen years old, but he was very good-looking. In addition, there is also a Yang Siniang in Liuqiu, and the relationship with him seems to be extraordinary, according to rumors, either a concubine or a little lady, she is in her thirties, but she is a heroine who can write and martial arts, and has done a lot of things for the Jingwu Army, and many officers are the ladies she helped marry, and she was widely praised by the soldiers. He also had a son, the eldest lady, who should be four or five years old by now. ”

"Anything else?" Wan Yanliang's hands became more and more restless.

"No, there is very little information about his relatives, he himself has no parents, the eldest lady has no mother's family, the second lady only has a father who has been idle at home for many years, Yang Siniang seems to be alone, their family does not have many relatives, and there is not much contact with the outside world." As he spoke, Chongjie threw away the paper in his hand and turned to Wan Yanliang to greet him.

The pressure on Wan Yanliang's body increased sharply, and he was very restless in his heart, and he urgently needed to vent in order to calm himself down.

Tearing off the mink fur and clothes that Chongjie was wearing, he pressed her under him fiercely, and vented his emotions to the fullest.

About a quarter of an hour later, Wan Yanliang got up and put on his mink fur, hugged the heavy knots that the mink fur covered his body in his arms, and shouted loudly: "Someone! ”

When he was young, an attendant lowered his head and entered the room, waiting for the emperor's orders.

"Pass the order, and order Yan Yuanyi to take two hundred boats to cross the river separately, and those who can reach the other side and return safely will be rewarded with one hundred taels of gold for each boat!"

After Yan Liang gave an order, the attendant took the order and left.

Even if Yang Congyi can fight again, he has the talent of a general, and the army under his command is only a few thousand people, can he stop the Yangtze River for dozens of miles?

From Yang Congyi's detailed combat experience, Wan Yanliang found that he was very good at fighting prepared battles, almost all battlefields were familiar and mastered by him in advance, just now he thought of a way to crack it, since he was good at fighting prepared battles on familiar battlefields, what if he was suddenly forced to fight on battlefields he was not familiar with? Will it work wonders? As a commander who has never failed, how will he decide?

As long as there is a failure, there will be a second time, and after the defeat, it is not only the confidence of their own army, but also the confidence of other armies.

When Yan Liang vented his emotions, the method he thought of was useful, and he wanted to try it immediately.

The heavy knot in his arms is like a kitten, soft and warm, his eyes are smart, and his veins are affectionate, and he instantly ignites his lust again.

The bad emotions have been vented, tear off the mink fur, and enjoy the warmth and gentleness of the heavy festival.

Wanyan Yuanyi received Wanyan Liang's order to cross the river, and he complained bitterly.

A few days ago, Wan Yanliang asked him to prepare for crossing the river within three days, and later withdrew the order, it seems that the emperor also knew that it was impossible to cross the river in a short time, and he had accepted his request to train the soldiers well first, and then wait for the opportunity to cross the river.

But why did the emperor's mind change again in just a few days?

Could it really be as rumored that the emperor was attracted by the appearance of Liu Guifei of the Song Kingdom, greedy for her peerless appearance, and when he was not in a hurry, he should hurry across the river, capture Lin'an, and take the beautiful Liu Guifei in the palace of the Song Kingdom as his own, and pursue his selfish desires?

Wanyan Yuanyi was very suspicious, because he had heard people say more than once that the emperor missed and admired the Liu Guifei in the palace of the Song Kingdom, and had mentioned it to people many times, and even promised to let people go to find her portrait with a lot of money, and even put the matter of canonizing her as a concubine as soon as she grabbed her hands on the agenda, I heard that two days ago, he also instructed the ministers of the camp to let them go to Yangzhou City to find the best bed and the softest bedding, it is said that it is to prevent Liu Guifei from feeling that the emperor has neglected her and made her angry.

But the emperor has already issued an order to cross the river, can he, as a subordinate, still disobey the order?

The training plan has been disrupted, and if you want to successfully cross the river to the south, I am afraid that it will have to be delayed a little longer, and I don't know how much time Wanyan Yong of Liaoyang will give the emperor.

At the moment, the order that should be carried out still has to be executed, because the life is one's own, and if it is lost, others will not feel distressed.

"The order went down, and after an hour, each boat was separated by ten zhang and crossed the river separately! Those who can go to the other side and come back safe and sound will be rewarded with ten taels of gold per ship! Wanyan Yuanyi ordered the herald that he would not cross the river in person, and he didn't even want to go to the riverside.

The order soon spread to the river, and everyone was afraid of crossing the river, but the temptation of ten taels of gold was there, even if there was no gold, they had to cross the river with an order, not to mention that there were still ten taels of gold, and no matter how afraid they were, they had to cross the river.

The troops crossing the river immediately went into action, inspecting their boats and weapons, and some even got used to it before entering the water.

On the other side, Zhenjiang.

"My lord, the enemy army has moved!"

Yang Congyi was accompanying Yu Yunwen to inspect the riverbank, when he overheard the soldiers hurrying to report.

"What's going on?"

"Hundreds of enemy ships are offshore at the same time, some are going upstream, some are going down the river, and they don't know their intentions yet!" The soldier replied.

"Probe, report!"

The soldier took the order and left, and Yang Congyi fell into deep thought.

"General Yang, what is the enemy going to do, do you want to cross the river or transfer the place to cross the river?" Yu Yunwen looked at the river and asked very casually, not particularly worried.

Yang Congyi frowned and replied, "It's not clear." If the enemy really wants to cross the river from three ferries at the same time, the three places are separated by nearly 200 miles, and the enemy's hundreds of thousands of troops can be divided into three places, and the cavalry moves quickly, we are afraid that we will not be able to, once the troops are dispersed, the enemy will attack from a ferry again, and we cannot transfer troops to support in time, as long as one place cannot be defended, the river defense will be lost. Now the enemy's intentions are not obvious, if it is only an attempt to cross the river, then it is fine, if it is to divide the troops into two other crossings, it will be a big trouble. ”

"What does General Yang think we should do now?" Yu Yunwen saw Yang Congyi's very worried expression, and immediately became a little worried. The noble person sent by the camp will soon come to Zhenjiang, and if there is a problem with the river defense at this time, his efforts for more than a month will be in vain.

Yang Congyi thought for a while and said: "At present, the enemy situation is unknown, and it is not easy to move lightly. If the enemy really divides the ships into three crossings, stretches the battle line, and crosses the river separately, we will have to be forced to divide our forces to deal with it, which is the worst situation, hopefully not. If the enemy army is now sending hundreds of ships to try to cross the river, it is impossible for our naval forces to stop them in a section of the river of more than ten or even tens of miles, and my suggestion is that all the naval forces do not go out, and order the infantry stationed along the river to set up an ambush on the bank of the river to which they belong, let those enemy troops who are ready to disperse and cross the river land on the river beach, and then annihilate the enemy troops who have come ashore in one fell swoop! ”

"Let them go ashore?" Yu Yunwen was shocked: "What if they break through the river defense? ”

Yang Congyi said helplessly: "If 80,000 people can't stop three or two thousand enemy soldiers from setting up an ambush on the riverbank, then Zhenjiang doesn't need to be defended. ”

"No, we must not prevent enemy troops from landing on the shore!" Yu Yunwen shook his head and resolutely refused.

"Lord Yu, at present, this is the most suitable way, the enemy only has a few hundred ships, or plans to disperse to cross the river, we can use the superior strength of the infantry to put the enemy in and destroy it, one can mobilize the enthusiasm of the whole army to defend, the second can boost the morale of the Zhenjiang defenders by killing the enemy, and the third can cause the enemy to cross the river and land fear, one stone, what's not good?" Yang Congyi explained.

Who knew that Yu Yunwen still shook his head, and said again very resolutely: "The enemy army must not cross the river, not even a boat and a soldier!" They must be kept in the middle of the river, not even the banks of the river! ”

Yang Congyi was speechless, a little speechless, he really wanted to ask the other party, is the enemy army under his command? Say that if you don't let the enemy army get close to the riverbank, the enemy army will obediently obey orders? Or is the Great Song Dynasty Navy invincible in the world, with one as ten, one as a hundred?

He couldn't ask these words, so he could only swallow them back into his stomach and hold them in his heart.

"Lord Yu, if the enemy's hundreds of ships are scattered across the river, we can't stop or stop them with our more than 200 warships, and they will inevitably appear on the river bank in the end." Yang Congyi explained weakly.
