In just one day and one night, more than 20,000 soldiers crossing the north. In addition, the musket camps that were originally left behind in Hanyang and Yangluo Fort, the defense of Jiangbei reached nearly 30,000. *Book! Book bar * As soon as Zhao Xingde waited for the gold and silver coins he gave him, he immediately distributed them to the army, treating them equally, and gave them a silver and imperial imperial coins. After fighting with the Liao soldiers in the future, he would issue gold and silver coins according to his military merits. This favor was very great, and the army was cheering. Many soldiers had only used copper coins in their lives, never gold and silver, and were even more happy. Some engraved their names on their names, some sewed the imperial coins in their hats, some sewed the waist of their pants, some sewed the inner face of their underwear, and some hung them on their necks with ropes.

"Old Wang, how about selling your reward to me?" Li Boyao asked with a smile, "I'll pay two hundred dollars."

Wang Bang looked at him in confusion, took out the silver-made money from his arms, took it to his mouth and blew it, and then put it in his ear to hear the sound. This was an action that he learned after sending out the imperial money. Wang Bang was so poor that he was jingling before joining the army, and he didn't know what the sound of the silver was. Li Boyao smiled even more happily when he saw this, and patted his shoulder and said, "Stop blowing, how can the imperial-made money be fake? This piece of silver is worth two cents, and it was exactly two hundred cents. I agreed that we will not owe each other?" As he said that, he took out two hundred copper coins from his arms. The copper coins were worn with a red rope, and a large pile of heavy, shining with golden light in the sun, which looked much more tempting than the small silver-made money.

Wang Bang couldn't help but feel a little moved, just as we agreed. Yu Xitian couldn't see it and smiled and said, "Boyo should not bully Lao Wang. He will regret it in the future and may have to use a knife with you." He walked over and pushed Wang Bang back halfway, saying to him, "It's a priceless treasure. If we can survive, we will pass it down from generation to generation. The family will be glorious, not to mention two hundred coins, even two hundred coins, two thousand coins will be hard to buy." There was a strange look in his words, and his eyes were towards the distance. Deng Su and Zhao Xingde were just talking while walking down the fort.

"In the past, I heard that Brother Zhao repeatedly defeated the Liao thieves, but I always didn't believe it," Deng Su sighed. "It's better to see it than to see it. Today I know Yuanzhi's methods." He pointed to the busy soldiers inside and outside Hanyang City, and sighed, "In one day and night, the southeast camp was like a world of difference." He turned around and stood down, lowered his voice, "Yuanzhi is good at doing it. After this battle, Your Majesty will definitely be of great importance. It's no problem to go to generals and ministers."

Zhao Xingde turned his eyes and replied in a deep thought: "I am not my wish to be a marquis, but I hope Hu Chenqing."

Deng Su was slightly stunned and smiled and said, "Yuan Zhi means seclusion, but at that time, it should be the best." Originally, Deng Su was vaguely worried that Zhao Xingde was famous and respectful, but now he has eliminated most of these worries and thought to himself: "Yuan Zhi, Shaoyang and others are not all on the same path after all. Cao Yang is deeply rooted, and Yue Han has their own subordinates. Only Yuan Zhi, the military power commissioner, is a pillar of stability in the government. Your Majesty has a unique vision.

"Not to say that," Deng Su bowed, "In the future, I will recover Bianliang, and I will be the host. Please go to Gonglou without getting drunk." He said this, Deng Su felt very happy, as if the Taixue classmate pointed to the country, pointing to the distance, "In the past, the imperial court expanded the Taixue, set up one hundred and twenty fasts, and selected three thousand talents from the world, so he wanted to make people's hearts one, and the knowledgeable people in the world work together, and the benevolent government will reach the world, and share the peaceful and prosperous era."

Zhao Xingde looked at the horizon with his eyes, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart. Suddenly, his eyes became alert. At the intersection of the river and sky in the north, a vague shadow of sail appeared. This was by no means a scattered fishing boat or ferry boat, but a huge fleet that almost covered the entire river.

Wanyan Zongbi stood at the bow of the Five-Tooth Warship, looking at the towering cities and the Hengjiang Iron Locks on both sides of the river. After the Song army discovered that the Liao Navy was coming, they were chaoticly anchoring from the dock on the shore, and many people even abandoned the ship and fled to the shore. The iron chain was originally the Xiangyang army that prevented the Han army from going up the river, but now it is used to prevent the Jurchen Navy from going down the river. Wanyan Zongbi sneered at the end of his nose and ordered: "Crack the fire with the falcon boat and burn the chain."

The Jurchen tribes like to use slender and light boats made of birch bark. There are also a large number of such boats in the Liao Dynasty navy, known as falcon boats. The war drums and thunder sounded on the five-toothed ship, and dozens of falcon boats were loaded with firewood to rush straight towards the iron chains of the Hengjiang River. Although the iron chains are tough, they are not fire-resistant. Just burn them with fire attack and then use the big ship to rush them hard to break the iron chains.

Two days ago, the Song army hurriedly retreated and recruited countless official boats and civilian boats. As long as they were parked on the shore, even the navy's ships were no exception. To the west of the chain, most of the warships of the Xiangyang navy were scattered in the water bays of large and small docks. The navy's status in the Xiangyang camp was low, and when the various commanders rushed to cross the river, they forced the navy's ships. At this time, the Liao army's navy came to attack in large numbers. Zhang Qing, the navy commander, had only one sword boat under his command. The eighteen personal sailors had no time to stop the Liao army's navy from destroying the chain.

"Mr. Zhang, what should I do?" asked the personal soldier Yan Jin.

Zhang Qing looked a little pale, as if he was talking to himself: "All the troops were crowded by the river. Our navy warships were in a hurry and could not be formed to fight. If the Liao thief navy rushed through the iron chain in one breath, he would be defeated even if he didn't fight. The Liao thief was not greedy for money, but to destroy our Song Dynasty and China. If the court was defeated, we would all be doomed together. We fought to die and ended up with the reputation of loyalty and heroes. The descendants would have their own support from the court." Looking at the enemy ships rushing down the river, Zhang Qing stomped his feet and shouted loudly: "Follow me and rush over! They can't break the iron chain of Hengjiang!"

Yan Jin was stunned and shouted: "Damn it, let's give up this life and fight with them!" The sailors looked at each other. The Liao naval warships came from the river. There were hundreds or thousands of ships. This small boat of eighteen people rushed forward to intercept it, which was really the same as sending death.

"Damn it," Zhang Qing looked at everyone, pulled out his waist knife with a clang, and urged: "Don't hesitate anymore, row the oar!"

The sailors no longer hesitated and rowed hard on both sides. Zhang Qing was wearing leather armor, holding a bow in one hand and an arrow in the other hand, and Yan Jin held a shield beside him. Five or six personal soldiers who were good at bows and crossbows stood behind him in turn. The sword boats broke through the water and pointed at the direction of the Liao ship. The closer they got, the more boundless the Liao warships opposite appeared, and the blackened. Dozens of falcon boats on the vanguard were piled with firewood. Seeing the Song army's sword boats coming up, some of the soldiers on the boat pulled out their scimitars and shouted at them. Several ships immediately turned around and surrounded the insignificant boats.

"Look!"

"That's our warship! What a hero!"

At the top of the Hanyang city, the soldiers pointed and pointed. From Xiangyang to Ezhou, many people were holding a ball of flame in their hearts. The momentum of this sword boat fighting to the death made many people ignite a fighting spirit that had not been around for a long time. Seeing this, Deng Su also kept his foot and watched the battle with Zhao Xingde. Although the navy was not in the headquarters, there were still many soldiers cheering loudly!

"Beat the drum!" Zhao Xingde said loudly, "Cheer for the heroes!" The war drums at the top of Hanyang City sounded. On the banks of the river, the warships of various units of the Song army were gathering in a hurry and preparing to fight. Further away, the gunships of the Song army that avoided the crossing of the river were also received flag orders, and immediately anchored up the river. However, at this moment, the Song Dynasty had only one sword boat, rushing up against the Liao army navy that faced thousands of warships.

The enemy's falcon boats are getting closer and closer, and the enemy's hideous faces are visible. The front ends of the recent falcon boats are filled with Liao soldiers holding shield blades. Because the hull is shaking, the Jurchens only use harpoon fishing nets when hunting on the water, so they are not good at bowing and crossbows on the boat, but the soldiers are brave and their favorite is to fight with hand-to-hand blades on the side.

Jiang Feng Lieli, Zhang Qing narrowed his eyes slightly and shouted: "Get the wine!"

The personal soldier Yan Jin pulled down the gourd at his waist and handed it on. Zhang Qing put his neck on his neck and poured wine into his mouth. He handed the gourd back to Yan Jin and ordered: "You're just enough." But he bent his bow and arrow, and pointed at the enemy ship coming towards him. The "bang" sounded, and the arrow shot towards the enemy like a meteor rushing towards the moon. Zhang Qing held the bow on his left arm like an iron cast, and his right hand swung back like a tiger's tail, stabilizing his body, and nailed his feet firmly on the board.

"Good archery!" Zhao Xingde couldn't help but exclaimed in admiration at the head of Hanyang City.

When the Liao soldiers on the falcon boat saw an arrow coming, they raised their shields in panic to block it. However, they were talking very quickly. Zhang Qing used two hard bows and light arrows. The arrows flew extremely quickly. With a scream, a Liao soldier fell down with his throat, and the shield was barely raised to his chest.

"Happy!" Zhang Qing roared, and then used an arrow again, and the bow was like a full moon. In just one breath, another arrow shot away.

With a "clang", the arrow shot into the iron helmet of a Liao soldier. I don't know if it had penetrated it. The Liao soldier shook his body to the ground. At this time, the distance between the warships on both sides was extremely close. Entering the range of a five-foot bow with one stone, Zhang Qing's personal soldiers opened their bows and fired arrows. Arrows on the river flew over like a line. The shields of the Liao soldiers could not be covered and were killed or injured. At the same time, ten rowers on both sides rowed the oars and the long narrow sword boats quickly passed through the two falcon boats. Seeing that the distance between the warships on both sides of the Song and Liao sides was extremely close, the Liao soldiers held swords and shields and were eager to try to jump over to fight with hand and blades.

"Down! Down! Down! Down! Down!"

"Shad! Shad! Shad! Shad!"

The oars on both sides of the sword boat were in charge of shouting loudly. The oars on one side rowed back and the oars on the other side moved forward. The ten oars had been trained many times. At this moment, everyone used all their strength. Ten oars heavily stirred up the water waves. The oars on the sword boat were like living creatures, and they were extremely agile on the river.

"Dong" and "Dongdong" sounded several times, and several impatient Liao soldiers fell into the river.
