Chapter 713
However, Dong Yi was ordered to fight Pei Yinying, and his original purpose was to win the opportunity to rescue Chencheng for the main army of North Vietnam led by Xiahou Yong. However, the result was not as easy as expected. Pei Yinying's conservative approach made Dong Yi's originally planned restraining plan difficult.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Dong Yi used his strategy and wisdom to see the initiative.
He discovered the impact of the changes in the weather on the "Huaiyin River", and thus planned a new military strategy in his mind.
That night, Dong Yi secretly sent a secret force. The troops were thousands of people. They secretly sneaked with sand bags prepared in advance and reached the upstream of the "Huaiyin River". According to Dong Yi's instructions, the "Taiping Army" of these secret troops directly used these thousands of sand bags prepared in advance to block the water of the "Huaiyin River" located in the upper reaches, so that the upstream river water was cut off.
On the other hand, Dong Yi's large army is still making preparations downstream.
He pretended to be equipped to attack, in order to paralyze and attract Pei Yinying's 30,000 troops across the river. Pei Yinying received the news that he thought that the young Dong Yi had begun to prepare for the subsequent attack due to the situation of rescuing Chen Cheng. He was proud and gathered all his troops to watch the change. However, he had no idea about the actions of the confidential troops sent by Dong Yi upstream.
Due to the launch of the confidential army operations of Dong Yi upstream, the water level of the Huai-Huaiyin River downstream gradually began to change, but Pei Yinying, who was the commander of the Wei State, had no concern or awareness of this at all.
Everything was ready. Dong Yi took advantage of the reduction of the water level of the "Huaiyin River" river and suddenly launched an attack on the defenders of the East Coast the next day. He personally led the army, using his general Fan Shouyu as the vanguard, and at the same time led half of the "Taiping Army" to cross the river.
When the news came, Pei Yinying, who was already ready to fight, also began to move forward. The 30,000 troops were surrounded in three directions, and then they had a fierce confrontation with Dong Yi's 5,000 troops on the east bank of the "Huaiyin River".
Dong Yi and Fan Shouyu worked together to fight, and after a fight, they pretended to be defeated and chose to retreat strategically.

When Yinying saw Dong Yi's handsome flag, how could she let it go easily? Xiahou Yong was so despised by himself that he actually sent a young man like Dong Yi to compete with his 30,000 elite troops. Pei Yinying had already made great efforts and vowed to capture and kill Dong Yi, completely destroy the "Taiping Army" and shock the North Vietnamese army.
Now when he saw Dong Yi's army lose and choose to retreat, he immediately issued an order to cross the river in three directions and enter Dong Yi's west bank camp. Faced with the persistent biting and attack of the defending army, Dong Yi, as the commander of the "Taiping Army", also showed a smug smile on his face at this time.
"Brother, the enemy has been pressing towards us."
"Hmph, it's best to press it up, I'm just afraid he won't come."
In the face of Fan Shouyu's report, Dong Yi responded in this way.
He pulled out the "Ruoshui Sword" on his waist and commanded the entire army to accelerate the retreat. The retreating army headed west and returned to the west bank. At the same time, the army of the Guard led by Pei Yinying had all rushed to the "Huaiyin River".
Dong Yi was extremely happy as he swam across the river.
He turned his head and looked at his close friend, and then he also signaled with his eyes.
After knowing it, he put the flag in his hand. Ge Shuyun on the west bank had already prepared, but when he saw the signal, he immediately fired a cannon and responded. The sound of cannons was shocking, and he immediately went straight to the upstream from the downstream of the "Huaiyin River". The sound of cannons was a signal, and Fu Yanqiong, the commander of the upstream who led Dong Yi to advance the confidential troops, had already prepared all the work.
When she heard the sound of shocking cannons sounding downstream, she immediately asked her confidential troops to open the sandbag that blocked the water flow. For a moment, the originally blocked water rushed toward the towering upstream and headed towards the defending army that was fighting across the river.
The downstream was originally just a waist-length river, but it instantly passed over the head.
The 30,000 elite guards led by Pei Yinying were washed away in an instant, and countless people were drowned. The guards were in chaos, and at this time, some of the guards who had already passed the "Huaiyin River" had already passed the "Huaiyin River" in front of them became an isolated army that was deeply in the water.
Dong Yi's subordinates waved the flag again, and all the soldiers and horses of Ge Shuyun, who were originally ambushing the west bank, appeared at this time.
Out. There were more than 2,000 of these people, all of whom were agile men who were good at arching and shooting among the "Taiping Army". They rushed forward quickly and launched a fierce long-range attack on the defending army horses that were about to get ashore.
For a moment, arrows were like rain, and the water that was waving white waves shone together.
The front army and horses of the State of Defense were killed or injured, and the 30,000 troops had basically reached the brink of collapse at this time.
Seeing that the situation was ready, Dong Yi joined forces with Fan Shouyu and Ge Shuyun to counterattack and advance together. At the same time, Fu Yanqiong, who was in the upper reaches, also commanded the thousands of secret troops sent to her by Dong Yi and turned east. Dong Yi, Fan Shouyu and Ge Shuyun's three major troops counterattacked by the remnants of the Guards in the "Huaiyin River", and the secret troops led by Fu Yanqiong bypassed the upstream along the river and rushed directly to Pei Yinying's headquarters camp on the east bank.
The four armies and horses surrounded the two armies. More than 10,000 Taiping Army came out in full swing and launched a second fierce attack on the remaining Wei State Pei Yinying Army. It was completely different from the first attack. At this time, the Taiping Army had undoubtedly occupied absolute initiative and advantage.
The military and horses of the Guard Kingdom were almost completely lost in the water of the "Huaiyin River". At this time, where could they still have the ability to resist? Pei Yinying, as the commander, had no way to escape, and was eventually killed by Fan Shouyu in the battle. The "Taiping Army" moved forward all the way, completely destroyed the 30,000 troops of the Guard Kingdom and occupied the eastern bank camp with an absolute crushing momentum.
Therefore, during this battle, Dong Yi and the "Taiping Army" led by him became famous.
After occupying the east bank, Dong Yi immediately compiled a letter and ordered the envoy to deliver Pei Yinying's head to Xiahou Yong's army in the rear. After hearing the news, the fourteen armies in the rear were shocked. Xiahou Yong heard that Dong Yi had accomplished great achievements, not only completed the tasks he assigned, but also destroyed Pei Yinying and his 30,000 troops. He felt a surge of ecstasy in his heart, and he did not disguise himself in silence. The North Vietnamese army was led by Xiahou Yong and went forward with the "Taiping Army" led by Dong Yi in the east bank camp of the "Huaiyin River".
This is exactly "but it can be designed for the battle situation, and the fame will be achieved in one fell swoop." I foresee how the two of them will be rewarded when they meet, and how will the North Vietnam raise troops to rescue Chen Cheng again? Let's see below.
