Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty-Three Umr Shan

Guanzhong in mid-April is very different from Lingnan, where grass has grown, birds fly, lush trees, and early summer has begun to show off. In the morning and evening, it even feels chilly in spring.

With a big victory in early March, Duliang lost the fortress group east of Jingzhao Prefecture that was built with countless manpower and material resources. Zhang Jun's 100,000 Zaoyang Army completely occupied all the fortresses and strongholds east of Jingzhao Prefecture, and from time to time dispatched thousands of troops to whistle past outside the Jingzhao Prefecture wall, making a stance that he would attack Jingzhao Prefecture at any time.

So much so that the entire Jingzhao Prefecture was in a panic for almost a month, fearing that Zhang Jun's army would suddenly attack the city.

Although Duliang lost more than 100,000 soldiers, there were actually not many Mongolian soldiers who actually lost. Most of them were servants from Xixia, Tubo and other countries. In addition to a group of Mongolian generals who fled into Jingzhao Prefecture City with Duliang, the other Mongolian soldiers who were dispersed also fled into Jingzhao Prefecture.

These soldiers are counted as more than 20,000, plus the 50,000 reserve Xixia vassal army that were already stationed in Jingzhao Prefecture, and some miscellaneous and miscellaneous soldiers. In fact, there are still nearly 100,000 soldiers in Jingzhao Prefecture.

Meng Gong had thought about capturing Jingzhao Mansion in one breath, but he finally gave up.

If Du Liang Xin loses, if Jingzhao Mansion is lost, then he will not let him go if Su Bu Tai favors him. It is expected that if the Song Dynasty takes advantage of the situation to attack Jingzhao Mansion, it will inevitably be resisted by Du Liang. With Zhang Jun’s 100,000 Zaoyang Army and 10,000 elite soldiers, Meng Gong was not sure to capture Jingzhao Mansion without large equipment.

Not to mention, even if it wins, it will definitely be fought with the life of the Zaoyang Army. Meng Gong cannot make this decision. And the most important thing is that even if he takes over Jingzhao Prefecture, the Song Dynasty does not have enough confidence to defend Jingzhao Prefecture.

The reason why Zhang Jun's Zaoyang army was still left on the front line of Jingzhao Prefecture was that in addition to the large number of fortresses built by Duliang were available, the more they were still to restrain Subutai and prevent him from attacking Sichuan with all his strength. You should know that even after Meng Gong defeated Duliang, Subutai only retreated for hundreds of miles, but did not withdraw his troops from Sichuan.

In order to relieve the pressure on Zhao Rongrui in Sichuan, Meng Gong had to do so.

After all, there are no opponents in Jingxiang now that are good at making a move. I don’t know what conspiracy is brewing. Huainan and Sichuan are all in a mess, and Meng Gong’s Jingxiang line is actually very calm. If Meng Gong is on the wall, the court will not say how many people will talk about it, and even Meng Gong himself cannot do it.

However, Meng Gong did not dare to stay away from Jingxiang for a long time. You should know that the Jingxiang front line is the real core focus. As long as the Jingxiang front line is not broken, no matter Sichuan or Huainan, no matter how fierce the battle is, it will not really threaten the foundation of the Song Dynasty. Even the Mongols must be careful to be trampled by the Ningwu army of Jingxiang at any time.

Therefore, Meng Gong did not dare to stay away from Jingxiang for a long time. After reminding Zhang Jun to be careful to prevent Du Liang from counterattacking, and repeatedly reminded him that once he found that the Subu Tai army appeared in Jingzhao Prefecture, he would not withdraw his troops immediately and not fight in love. Meng Gong led 10,000 personal soldiers back to Caizhou to take charge.

Meng Gong was not too worried about Zhang Jun's 100,000 Zaoyang Army that had been launched in front. After all, Zhang Ying's 100,000 Ningwu Army was backed by Zhang Jun.

As the sun sets, as the sunlight dissipates, a battalion of Zaoyang soldiers is preparing to return to the camp outside Jingzhao Prefecture City. A battalion of Zaoyang soldiers is also coming to take the defense. Zhang Jun implemented Meng Gong's orders well, and while nailing them to the front line of Jingzhao Prefecture as a nail, he is also always guarding against possible counterattacks.

In just over a year, the Mongolians had lost nearly 200,000 troops in Meng Gong's hands. Although there were not many truly Mongolian elites, they were slapped in the face.

"Hey Pengtou, are there any movements in the Mongolian barbarians in Jingzhao Prefecture?"

"Old Li, all Liang was killed by the commander. How could there be any movement?"

Peng Bao replied with a smile.

In the distance, Jingzhao Mansion shrouded a large wilderness in the darkness under the reflection of the sunset. As the sunset gradually fell, darkness gradually came.

"It's better to be careful, but don't forget the Xinyang Army's affairs. If the general is wrong, the commander will have to take the lead."

The man named Lao Li is a middle-aged man and said casually with a smile.

"Old Li, brothers don't like to listen to what you said. Please ask brothers, when did my Peng Bao's soldier miss something? I checked all the places I should go, look, checked. I don't have a single rat hair. Don't worry, old man."

Peng Bao rolled his eyes and shouted in dissatisfaction.

"That's right, that's right. Everyone knows that you, Peng Datou, are the most careful in your work, but we have to save much more effort. Haha, thank you."

"It's almost the same. After running for a day, I should go back and have some hot soup rice. I'll come for you tomorrow morning."

"Come early..."

Thick darkness enveloped the earth layer by layer.

In the depths of the darkness that the two battalions could not see, Mongolian soldiers wearing armored clothes and cloth wrapped around their feet quietly pulled out from the gate of Jingzhao Prefecture, stepped into the darkness and slowly drove towards the direction of the Zaoyang Army camp.

"The General asked me to bring you a few words."

Umurshan sat upright on the war horse and looked at Du Liang in front of the war horse with expressionless expression.

"You have lost the trust of the general and lost all the face of my Mongolian man, which made the great khan shame. Zhang Rou knew that you were killed in Shacheng. Why didn't you die at Meng Gong's hands as my Mongolian noble? The general will collect your body for you and take good care of your wife, children and children. But since you have escaped, you will have to bear the consequences you have caused yourself. If you can't wash away the shame you brought to me to the Mongolians tonight, then you will give your head to the Emperor of Song, and the general will still take good care of your wife, children, children and children, as well as your pasture and property."

The tall and big horses are as bright as the faces of the beam.

"Du Liang will definitely fight to the death to offer the head of the Song general to the General."

Umurshan is the commander of the personal guards around Subutai, and is also the most loyal hawk of Subutai. From the moment he saw Umurshan, Du Liang knew that if he could not complete the things assigned by the general, then not only would he finish, but the people of his clan would become slaves to others, and his wife and children would also become other people's playthings.

"My people in Jingzhao Mansion will be stationed. Wherever you are embarrassed, you will find them. I will personally lead 30,000 elite cavalry. After you start a war with the Song people, you will bypass the Song people's camp and block the Ningwu army behind the Song army. I will leave you another 20,000 elite cavalry. If you can't complete the general's explanation, try to kill more Song people. This is the only thing I can do for you."
