In the 70th time, the victorious teacher was brought into the Ba Shui (3)

Zheng Yunming looked up at the person, laughed loudly, and said, "Zhang Shijie! You and I have a great fate, so I can meet again! How about it, do I want me to send you a horse back to the north?"

Zhang Shijie replied depressedly: "During the melee yesterday, I was recognized by a few soldiers from my fellow countrymen, and they fought without saying a word. As a result, I accidentally killed one of them, and the rest escaped and reported the message to Zhang Rou. Now I can't clear the charges and have no place to go."

"There is no place to go, so go back to the south." Zheng Yunming shouted: "This is the fate of heaven and the Zhao Guan family. Even if you run to the ends of the world, you can't hide it."

Zhang Shijie could not hear his meaning. In the known history of another world, only Zhang Shijie, as the last general, accompanied Zhao's bloodline to the ends of the world, exhausting his blood and loyalty. Zheng Yunming, as a minister of Zhao, had to be grateful for it.

Zhang Shijie sighed: "As the official said, my destiny belongs to the Southern Dynasties. From then on, please send the general at will." He said that, kneeling on one knee and presented the sword around his waist with both hands.

"Forget it, keep the sword and kill the Tartars. From then on, I will be the enemy when I see Zhang Wanhu again. Are you really ready?" Zheng Yunming's simple words made Zhang Shijie hesitate again. When this uncle, who has been respected as a hero since childhood, would draw his sword to face each other in the future, he really didn't know how to face it.

Zheng Yunming laughed and patted his shoulder: "This dynasty puts benevolence and righteousness first, how could it be that flesh and blood will be destroyed? In the future, when you meet Zhang Degang in front of the formation, you are allowed to retreat three times, and after three times, you are not allowed to show mercy."

He turned around and asked, "What do you think Lu Weng thinks?"

Lu Xunzhi frowned: "To be honest, the battlefield changes rapidly. If the official grants his power, he is afraid that there will be trouble in the future."

Zheng Yunming shook his hand: "The fate of the country is betting on a war, and the fate of a battle is betting on one person. Even if such a country is immortal today, it will not last for a hundred years. Now Mongolia has retreated, and it is time to deploy the country's century-old plan."

Whenever Zheng Yunming wanted to publish a grand speech, people always seized the opportunity to interrupt him. This time it was Hu Yanyu who was riding a horse. He dismounted and met with the main general and reported: "Thirteen miles northeast, about 2,000 people camped to attack the Uygur tribe of the Mongolian army, with both men, horses and carriages and wars. I don't know what the purpose is."

Since the defeat in Jiangnan, the Uygur army has fully utilized the smart nature of the businessmen. When they saw Yan Shi fleeing, they immediately moved urgently and snatched many from the rafts crossing the river. They crossed the river first, met with their families and supplies, and actually escaped among the guards first, but why they entrenched here is puzzled.

Zheng Yunming turned his head and asked, "What do you think Lu Weng thinks?"

Lu Xunzhi laughed: "What's there to say? If you don't leave, you will definitely surrender."

Zheng Yunming nodded and ordered, "Send someone to ask, what is the matter of Uygur's army entrenching here? If you want to fight, you can set up your formation and fight with a dignified formation."

Shortly after the envoy was sent out, he returned with a Weiwuer general.

Zheng Yunming recognized this person, the Weiwuer general who shot an arrow from the side of the chariot. He didn't say it out loud, but just asked, "Don't you return north in time and leave it here. Do you still want to fight with our army?"

The young general fell to the ground and said, "I am now in the order of the Lord General Hami Tong Yehu, and the order of Lord Zheng, came to visit Lord Zheng. After my troops crossed the river, Natasi whipped Lord Ainhong for fifty whips, and said that he would report to Hehan and take Lord Helin to behead him. Therefore, Lord Ainhong would be willing to surrender Lord Zheng and Sinan Sikhan, and to overcome obstacles for the southern country, without any intention."

Zheng Yunming didn't believe in human roles so easily. He asked again: "Since Tasi whipped Ainhong, why did he release him to the headquarters? You stayed behind. As the head coach, isn't he just asking?"

Bebasli responded: "After Tasi whipped Tongye Hu, he immediately set off the camp and set off. He seemed to be in a hurry and did not even take away a lot of supplies. He ordered each unit to return to the north and gather in Luoyang City. Therefore, our army had the opportunity to act independently."

It seemed that Qu Chu had indeed died in Xiangyang City. Zheng Yunming thought that Qu Chu's death was a major event for Ogedei Khan. Through interrogation of the prisoners, he learned that Guiyou had already gone out of the Beihai area with his eldest son's expeditionary army and was heading towards the Scythian grassland. This is a famous event in history. The elite soldiers and generals led by these eldest sons were fighting thousands of miles away until they heard the news of Ogedei Khan's death. This would take at least five years later. Among the sons of Ogedei, Qu Chu died of illness, and only one Kuoduan was left behind. The north would fall into a short-term chaos. This was also a great opportunity to free up hands to manage Jinghu.

At this time, Zheng Yunming never expected that there would be even greater trouble waiting for him.

After sending Weiwuer's troops to Xiangyang to accept the adaptation, Zheng Yunming and Lu Xunzhi returned to the rank of the corps office first. They wanted to report in detail the results of cleaning the battlefield in the north, but unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the main gate of the government office, they met the anxious Bai Yijie.

"The commander and Meng Shuai were both waiting for the general in the study, and the staff and generals of the headquarters were also there." Bai Yijie bowed and said, "Please go and discuss matters immediately."

"Why are you so panicked?" Zheng Yunming smiled and said, "Is it possible that Qu came back to death and led his army back?"

Bai Yijie was not in a joking mood at all, and he said in a deep voice: "What happened in Sichuan."

Zheng Yunming's excited mind immediately calmed down. The breakthrough of Shukou was the history of another world, and he was not spared in this world. He was only worried about how severe the Mongols invaded and whether the entire Sichuan reached an irreversible level.

When he stepped into the study, Zhao Jingzhi and Meng Dutong's frowns told him that the situation on the fourth road of Chuanxia was not optimistic.

Before the war, the confidential information received by the state was that the Mongols claimed to have all the soldiers from Xifan, claiming to be 500,000 elite soldiers, and forced the 18 Tubo soldiers from Xifan to attack the Central Plains together. In fact, they mobilized at least seven thousand households of troops and drove the Tubo, Uighurs, Dangxiang, Jurchens, Bohai and other troops to participate in the war, and the total strength was said to have exceeded 100,000.

At this time, the Shukou guards were not effectively supplemented and rectified due to the severe blow last year. The Sichuan Road pacifier Zhao Yanna, located at the forefront, had less than 20,000 troops, and the core of them was the 8,000 elite troops led by Cao Youwen. The equipment of the Shukou guards had always been poor. Although Cao Youwen also sent someone to ask Jinghu to distribute firearms last year, Zheng Yunming's firearms were seriously insufficient at that time, and he could only give them a gift of sixty bamboo generals. In general, Shukou's defense had reached a point where it was difficult to support.

As the commander-in-chief of the West Road, the second Mongolian prince Kuoduan was divided into two groups with Prince Mu Zhi. Kuoduan led his army to Shukou. After Mu Zhi led his army to conquer Huizhou, he moved from Dangchang to Sichuan and joined the main force.

After Huizhou was lost and Guo Xiama was killed, the Mongolian army covered the fields with flags and came straight to Sichuan. The Mongolian army quickly captured Zhu Er's vanguard and quickly broke through Dangchang and Jiezhou, turning the troops to Wenzhou. Wenzhou had 8,000 defenders, but there were fatal deficiencies in defense. There were no wells in the city, and the water source was entirely relied on the rivers that ran across the city. After the Mongolian army besieged the city, the water source was immediately cut off. The six soldiers in the city were short of water, and many of them were thirsty.

The body was stiff and unable to move, so the Mongolian army attacked the city in large numbers and fought fiercely with the Song army at the top of the city. Finally, Zhu Er personally led the suicide squad to climb the city using a ladder, killing dozens of defenders at the top of the city to establish a position. The Mongolian army then broke through the city, and the governor Liu Rui and his two sons committed suicide to death. The Wenzhou Tongzhe was captured. The Mongolian army first cut off his arms and then dismembered him. In the battle of Wenzhou, more than 50,000 soldiers and civilians were all massacred by the Mongolian army.

Then Kuoduan drove straight into Dasan Pass, dividing the troops into two groups, attacking Mianzhou and Xingyuan.

Cao You heard that he was stationed in Mianzhou at this time, and his soldiers were scarce and could not resist. So he discussed with his younger brother Cao Wan, hoping to set up an ambush with the dangerous terrain to wait for the enemy. Unexpectedly, the Mongols' offensive was fierce. Under the leadership of Wang Shixian, a cavalry led the first attack into Wuxiu Pass, defeated the troops of the commander-in-chief of Xingyuan, and occupied Xingyuan. In panic, the Sichuan appeasement envoy Zhao Yanna hurriedly ordered Cao Youwen to retreat to the Da'an army.

In Cao Youwen's opinion, this was an inaccessible idea. Mianzhou is a mountain city. Although there are no city walls, many temporary fortifications have been built under the management of the headquarters for one year. There are many passes and roads at the entrances and roads, and there are good places for ambushing everywhere. The Da'an Army has a flat terrain, which is particularly suitable for cavalry combat.

But Zhao Fuwen obviously considered his safety as strategic considerations. In his opinion, Da'an was in front of his resident place. Only by defending Da'an could he ensure his absolute safety. In order to urge Cao Youwen, he used the most urgent small red card that the Fuwen could mobilize, and passed it with red cards seven times in a day, constantly urging Cao Youwen to move to defend Da'an army.
