The third year of Jiaxi was destined to be an unusual year. It was not until many years later that the writers of history discovered that many seemingly unrelated things that happened in this year affected the fate of the Song and Meng Kingdom in the following years and even decades.

This year, the battle between Song and Meng in the second year of Jiaxi, and the battlefield in Huainan was always in a stalemate. Tuxue seemed to be trying hard to compete with Zhao Kui, because Shi Tianze in the direction of Jingxiang had not been moved. At the same time, even if he could not figure out the intention of being warm and not slacking off his mind, especially the intention of the Mongols, He Shun's 100,000 troops advancing eastward were trapped in order to protect Jingxiang and prevent them from being cut off. Instead, they were trapped in the Mongols and could not attack Tuxue's troops with all their strength.

The Zhang Jun army advancing westward also faced such a situation. The more than 100,000 troops of Duliang and Zhang Jun's 100,000 troops were fighting on the front line of Jingzhao Prefecture, but they were mainly tempted and there was no war of more than 10,000 people.

As the court allocated money, grain, grass and weapons were shipped to Sichuan and Huainan, Zhao Rongrui personally took charge of Bazhou and set up defense lines in Lizhou and Bazhou and Dazhou. Subutai could no longer advance, and the Sichuan battlefield was in a stalemate.

The sudden outbreak of war between Song and Meng finally changed in March of the third year of Jiaxi.

On February 2nd, the dragon raises its head; on March 3rd, the Xuanyuan is born.

On the third day of the third month of the third year of Jiaxi, Du Liang, the chief general who came to the Jingzhao Prefecture, received news from the scout that more than a thousand soldiers from the Song Dynasty were attacking a beacon tower on the Jingzhao Prefecture. Du Liang did not take it seriously, and immediately sent more than a thousand Xixia servants to the beacon tower to rush to the beacon tower for assistance.

This is the tacit understanding of the Song and Meng army on the front line of Jingzhao Prefecture in more than a month.

When the two armies confront each other, they can't always confront each other without any military achievements, right? How can I explain to the court? The generals who commanded the army also need the heads of enemy soldiers to do military achievements, right? The generals who commanded the army in the Song Dynasty thought, Du Liang didn't know what the generals in the Song Dynasty thought. Anyway, Du Liang never took Du Liang's attention to the more than 100,000 servants in Xixia. He could earn more military achievements and exchange for the heads of some Song soldiers. Du Liang would not be stingy with the lives of these Xixia people at all.

But today's things are a little different from the past.

Not long after more than a thousand soldiers were sent out, the scout came to report that the Song people had increased their troops, and they directly increased their troops by more than 3,000. It seemed that they had to take down the beacon tower today.

Du Liang was naturally very happy. The Song people were willing to send more heads, so he was naturally eager to do so. He quickly added troops to the beacon tower again, but this time Du Liang was sloppy and directly added 5,000 troops. It was rare that the Song people dispatched so many soldiers at one time, Du Liang naturally wanted to take this opportunity to get more heads from the Song people's soldiers so that he could go and take the opportunity to seek credit in front of the table.

Not long after, the scout came to report again. This time, the Song people directly increased more than 10,000 troops and were desperately besieging the beacon tower. The three beacon towers around the beacon tower were also attacked by the Song people at the same time. So Du Liang once again became angry and wanted to hold the credit that he had finally sent this time firmly in his hands.

He himself continued to bring a group of generals to hug the captured woman and drink and have fun.

After repeating this, Du Liang was drunk and received a report from the scout again. When the Song army launched a large-scale attack and wanted to increase its troops, he was told by his generals that all the soldiers had been sent to the battlefield.

When Du Liang realized that he had fallen into the trap of the Song people, the scout just came to report the urgent report of Meng Gong's flagship flag on the battlefield.

When he heard Meng Gong's commanding flag appearing on the battlefield on the front line of Jingzhao Mansion, all the Mongolian generals in the big account were instantly awakened.

No one in Mongolia is unclear who Meng Gong is. The appearance of Meng Gong's commander flag on the battlefield can only explain one problem. Meng Gong, who was previously on the front line of Jingxiang, no one knew when he quietly appeared on the front line of Jingzhao Prefecture. As a general who was the leader of the Song Dynasty, Meng Gong appeared on the front line of Jingzhao Prefecture, and he would definitely not be the only one.

Du Liang and others did not think that their more than 100,000 troops could be blocked by their tens of thousands of Ningwu Army.

After hearing the appearance of Meng Gong's flag, Du Liang, who had no intention of fighting, hurriedly ordered the entire army to retreat.

The defeat was like a mountain of defeat.

On the third day of the third month of the third year of Jiaxi, the commander of Jinghu, Meng Gong, personally led 10,000 personal soldiers and appeared secretly on the front line of Jingzhao Prefecture. The main attack was with Meng Gong's 10,000 elite personal soldiers. The Jinghu army defeated more than 100,000 Mongolian troops in Duliang. In this battle, the Song Dynasty beheaded more than 30,000 and more than 20,000 Mongolian soldiers were captured. Only Duliang and a group of Mongolian generals fled back to Jingzhao Prefecture and closed the city.

With the defeat of Duliang's army on the front line of Jingzhao Prefecture, Subutai on the Sichuan battlefield retreated 300 miles overnight before camping again, and then retreated all the way to Guanzhong before stopping; after receiving the news of the defeat of the Mongolian army on the front line of Jingzhao Prefecture, Tuxue's army hurriedly broke away from contact with Zhao Kui's army and retreated back to Sizhou City, looking like he was strictly guarding the country.

When the news came, the whole country of Song Dynasty was jubilant, and the sorrows in the court and the country were swept away. It is said that on the day when Zhao Yun received the news from Meng Gong, he was rarely drunk at the court banquet. He personally gave Meng Gong a special tour to Kaifu Yitong and the three departments, and all responded to the Jinghu Army's rewards.

It was also this year that the Fujian appeaser Wu Liang died on the woman's belly. However, because of Meng Gong's victory at the front line of Jingzhao Prefecture, Wu Liang's death was really nothing.

However, it was also at that banquet that Zhao Yun, who was in a state of great wine, followed Shi Songzhi's advice and asked the Guangdong pacifier Jia Sidao to temporarily handle the arrangements for the Fujian road before the court selected a new pacifier to arrive in Fujian. It was also rare to pass without any major obstacles.

It was also in the third year of Jiaxi (1239), Jia Sidao, who was only 27 years old, became the Guangdong Pacification Envoy and temporarily handled all matters in Fujian.

Jia Sidao received the news that Meng Gong had defeated the Mongolian army on the front line of Jingzhao Prefecture, which was half a month earlier than the imperial edict from the court. When he received the imperial edict from Zhao Yun to temporarily handle all matters in Fujian, to be honest, Jia Sidao was very surprised for a moment. This was definitely something unexpected to him.

This was indeed the result he wanted very much, but in his previous opinion, neither Neo-Confucianism nor the royal family would allow him to control the military and political power, especially a piece of fat like Fujian Road. But things happened.

After talking to Shuai Si, who was originally from the two groups that day, Jian Fangda and others were very sensible and chose to go to the troupe training yamen.

Jia Sidao divided the 36 prefectures on Guangdong Road into six regiments and envoys, and the six governors from the commander-in-chief were responsible for a regiments and envoys, recruiting soldiers.

As Shuai Si turned against each other, Cao Si who smelled the smell quickly chose to compromise with Jia Sidao.

The Caosi was designated as the Guangdong East and West Gate Transportation Envoy. The transfer envoys originally belonged to the Guangnan East and West Gate Transportation Envoys were responsible for one branch, and their jurisdiction was still under the original Guangnan East and West Gate. However, the Caosi belonged to the Caosi Department secretly named them under the Maritime Bureau and became officials in the Maritime Bureau.

Xie Changxing and Chang Sheng were promoted by Jia Sidao to the Tongzhi of Guangdong East and West (Fifth rank) by the Maritime Office. The other judges and deputy transport envoys of the Caosi were promoted to the deacons of the Maritime Office.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Caosi, which originally belonged to the east and west routes of Guangnan, still looked like the Caosi, but in fact, it had been swallowed up by the Maritime Office.
