Zhou Cheng on the opposite side felt a little disdain when he saw that the Song army dared to charge at their naval forces. The general leading the other side seemed to be unfamiliar with water wars.

So he ordered the big ships he swung down to form a row and rushed towards the opposite navy.

At this point, let’s talk about the warships of both sides.

Due to the tight time, it was too late for Yang Heng to build a large warship. Therefore, in addition to some of the requisitioned wealthy merchants, the warships on Yang Heng were newly built small warships.

If a general with rich experience in water warfare, leading a fleet of small warships and facing the attack of the opponent's large ship, he must take advantage of his small warship's fast and flexible speed and deal with the opponent.

But Sun Xing is just a half-baked person after all, and he is still fighting in the land now.

He believed that as long as the soldiers under his command had great training and brave combat, they would be able to do everything.

Therefore, facing the large ship rushing towards him, he not only did not retreat, but instead directed his small warship to hedge against the large warship opposite.

This is a fun thing to watch.

The small warship on Yang Heng's side was hit before the big ship approached the other person. The soldiers on the warship landed in the river without even slashing a single sword.

Immediately afterwards, the archers on the big ships pulled their bows and arrows, and they saw countless locusts shooting downwards.

This time, the soldiers of the Song army below were in trouble.

Now they have no way to fight with each other due to the height of the warship. Now they can only hook the edge of the other party's ship with a quilt and then climb up.

But this is above the water surface, but unlike on land, and these people are indeed not familiar with water, so although they hooked the other party's edge, they had to climb up for a long time.

Before these people could climb up, the archers above were a row of arrows, and immediately shot them into the water.

Next was a tragic massacre.

The navy on Yang Heng's side was killed by others as a rat skeleton.

But where can they escape on this river? Therefore, these people had no choice but to jump into the river to survive.

But the problem arises again. Although these northerners are a bit watery, they may not have the ability to swim to the other side when facing the wide Yangtze River.

In the end, if it weren't for the soldiers under his command who fought to the death to save him, Sun Xing would probably have no life.

When Sun Xing hurried to the river bank under the protection of everyone and looked back, the 20,000 people he brought had now been wiped out.

When Sun Xing saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel sad from his heart. He knelt on the riverside and cried loudly at the soldiers who were still struggling on the river.

These are the men of the Three Jin Dynasty he brought, and each of them is almost the elders of his hometown.

Now all these people have died here, how can they return to their hometown to meet the elders and villagers?

At this time, Yang Heng, who was standing on the hill, also had a pale face.

If Yang Heng had the idea of ​​using the other party to weaken Sun Xing's forces just now, then he would have long since thrown this idea out of the sky.

He didn't expect that the navy army opposite was so powerful.

In Yang Heng's vision, they are not as good as the other party, but with their own people and their excellent training, they can also compete with each other.

But what was the result? In the first battle, the 20,000 elite Jin army was defeated by the opponent.

If he followed this trend, he would send his elite troops to his headquarters, which would not be much better than Sun Xing.

After thinking about this, Yang Heng suddenly woke up. No wonder the army in the north used to fight for the south, and would not pass through the water surface of Yangzhou, but would go to Xiangyang, Jingzhou, or Sichuan to go around in a big circle.

It seems that the water surface on this side is too wide, which is conducive to water war, and the soldiers in the north are indeed opponents from the south to water war.

Do you also have to go around a big circle and attack Jiangnan in a roundabout way?

Yang Heng quickly dispelled this idea.

I don’t have the time to attack a strong city like Xiangfan.

But my hundreds of thousands of troops were indeed blocked by others. On the edge of the Yangtze River, what should I do next?

Thinking of this, Yang Heng felt a headache. Finally, he rubbed his temples and had no choice but to take the generals back to the central army tent.

Yang Heng had just sat firmly, and a small man came to report to him outside, and Sun Xing asked for a meeting.

Yang Heng frowned, then immediately smiled and turned it out of the case after the coach, took two steps at a time, and came outside the big tent.

Here I saw Sun Xing's helmet and his armor were tilted, with blood marks on his body, kneeling outside the handsome tent, crying secretly.

Yang Heng quickly stepped forward to help Sun Xing up, and then tears also flowed in his eyes.

"It's all my fault. If I hadn't thought it was impossible, the soldiers would not have suffered such a big blow."

Sun Xing raised his head and saw Yang Heng's face flushed and tears kept falling.

Therefore, he quickly sorted out his clothes and armor, then lowered his head and replied, "It's not your Majesty's fault. It's all because of the last general's failure, so he was defeated so he asked for punishment."

Yang Heng sighed and said nothing. He took Sun Xing into the tent with his own hands. After he arranged Sun Xing on his left hand, he sat back in the position of coach again.

"Everyone, you have seen today's water battle. What strategies do you have to defeat the enemy?"

When the people below heard Yang Heng’s question, they lowered their heads and began to think hard.

At this time, Wang Hua, who had been following Yang Heng and served as the chief clerk, stood up.

Wang Hua was originally a father who kept the precepts and was taken charge of the political affairs of the world by Yang Hengwei on important tasks.

This time, he didn't have to follow Yang Heng to the south, but he thought that he had not achieved his achievements and was in a high position in the court and would definitely be excluded by his confidants under Yang Heng, so he asked Yang Heng several times to follow the army to the south.

Yang Heng himself also felt that he was missing a counselor, and Wang Hua had some skills, so he agreed to his request and let him be the chief clerk in the army.

Wang Hua, who has been silent these days, just now after listening to Yang Heng's words, turned his eyes a few times and found a pretty good way.

Yang Heng nodded with satisfaction when he saw Wang Hua come out of the class.

"Wang Aiqing has something to say."

"Report to Your Majesty, our army's water battle is indeed inferior to them. If we want to confront them, training the navy may not be completed in a short time."

"This is exactly what I am worried about."

"Your Majesty, since we cannot break through the front, we might as well act from the side, which may make the other party collapse from the inside. At that time, we will be able to defeat the enemy without fighting."

"Oh, I'm going to tell you what a clever plan."

Wang Hua nodded proudly, and then I said, "Although the other naval army is powerful, if there is no food and grass, their hundreds of thousands of naval army will probably collapse immediately."

Yang Heng smiled bitterly, and then said, "There is no more to save the enemy than to save the enemy, and no more to stop the food. I also know this truth, but the other party's food and grass must be stored on the south bank of the Yangtze River and is closely guarded. With our naval army and combat capabilities, we may not be able to defeat the other party's water camp."

Wang Hua smiled and said, "Where can you use to break through the other party's water camp? As long as your Majesty uses the method in Jin Province again, the south will definitely be in chaos."

Yang Heng's eyes lit up after hearing this. This was a solution.

Moreover, those great sects of cultivation have received their own luck, and it is time for them to exert some effort.

"Okay, I get it."

After saying that, Yang Heng ordered the tent to be disbanded, and then hurried to the back camp.

There is a place behind this camp that is closely guarded, and the so-called soldiers are all female soldiers.

The female soldiers did not stop Yang Heng from the arrival of Yang Heng, so Yang Hengshun successfully arrived outside the big tent in the middle.

When he arrived here, Yang Heng did not break into you anymore, but shouted loudly: "Is the fairy still there? Yang Heng asked for a meeting if you have something to do."

Yang Heng's Speech As soon as Yang Heng's speech finished, a sound of ringing bells came from inside.

Immediately afterwards, a woman fell in front of Yang Heng like Chang'e in the sky.

Yang Heng was in a daze for a moment, and soon he kept his mind and took a step back.

And this woman is not someone else, but her old acquaintance, Fairy Qinglian.

The fairy Qinglian came to Yang Heng, bowed to him, and then led Yang Heng into the tent.

After arriving here, the two men sat down with guests and hosts, and then a maid brought in fragrant tea.

Yang Heng picked up the teacup and took a sip, feeling that the fragrance remained on his mouth, which was much better than the tea he drank in the palace.

"Your Majesty is not in front of the military affairs, why are you here for me?"

Yang Heng put down the teacup and looked at Fairy Qinglian, then said angrily: "Today's great defeat spread throughout the camp. I don't believe you haven't heard of it?"

Fairy Qinglian smiled slightly, and then said, "Victory and defeat are common in military affairs. Your Majesty does not need to worry about it. Please rectify the troops and fight with them."

Yang Heng shook his head and said, "The southerners ride on a boat and the northerners ride on a horse are indeed well-deserved. In this water battle, I am far inferior to these people in the south. I am afraid I will not win for a while."

"What are your plans? Do you want to just retreat to the north like this?"

"Haha, I took hundreds of thousands of troops to the expedition and arrived at the riverside. How could I give up halfway?"

"What does Your Majesty mean?"

Yang Heng had already stood up at this time and came to the fairy Qinglian. After that, he came to the ground with a respectful attitude, "Please help me with the fairy."

Fairy Qinglian was frightened and quickly stood up from her seat, hid next to her, and then gave Yang Heng a blessing, then said:

"Your Majesty has something to say, so there is no need to be so polite to destroy the path."

Yang Heng stood up at this time and said seriously:

"I want to ask the fairy to help me contact other sects, cut off the food and supplies of these southern naval troops, and let them destroy themselves from within."
