Although Boyan had not fought with Zhao Dongting's army in person, his ears were almost calloused.

Since Zhang Hongfan and Ali Hague were all defeated by the Song army, the Yuan Dynasty has now regarded the Song Dynasty's firearms as the top priority.

Emperor Kublai Khan once said in his morning court that, “To destroy the Song army, we must catch up with the Song army’s firearm craftsmanship.”

It is not without reason that the Yuan Dynasty could expand its territory in a short period of time and have an unprecedented vast territory. Kublai Khan and others were originally just nomadic people on the grassland and were invincible because they were eager to learn and willing to learn. After occupying the territory of the Northern Song Dynasty, they were learning from the strengths of the people, whether in culture, thought or all aspects. Otherwise, they would not be able to quickly make the Han people in the Northern Song Dynasty choose to surrender quickly.

After all dynasties, after a few private capital took office, the top priority was to integrate into Han culture. Because the Han population base was too large.

Thinking of Kublai Khan's words, Bo Yan's eyes slightly condensed, as if he had made up his mind.

Soon, generals of the Yuan army of ten thousand men and above in Duanxi hurried to the main hall of the government office.

Many of them have heard about Kong Yuan’s defeat and death.

When they arrived in the hall, the generals looked very good. They were careless, but they didn't dare to look too casual at this time.

Boyan waved his hand and said, "Please sit down with all the generals!"

All the generals sat down according to their qualifications.

"I believe everyone has received the news about General Kong Yuan's affairs?"

Boyan had never said anything nonsense, and said directly: "The Tiangang Army of the Song Dynasty took the initiative to attack Wutongling. Relying on their grenade launchers, thunder cannons and the Shenlong gun, defeating General Kong, causing our army to suffer significant losses. Our army's sky-bombing thunder did not even have the chance to use it, and was defeated by the Song army from a distance of Xu long. What do you think about this matter?"

Upon hearing this, a general said, "Chief, what are the grenade launchers and thunderbolt chariots of the Song army?"

All the generals looked at Boyan with bright eyes.

Boyan said: "I don't know much about the grenade launcher. I only know that its power is several times greater than that of the Sky Thunder, and it can shoot more than 500 meters. As for the Thunder Rider, it is just a powerful firecracker made by the Song army with gunpowder, and then tied to crossbow arrows to fire. We can learn this. Our dynasty has only developed Sky Thunder. Although we can use the catapult car to throw Sky Thunder to attack the city, it is far from enough. The two armies will be charged, and the catapult car is not enough."

"Then coach, I'm waiting for you?" Some generals showed doubts.

Boyan supported his hands on the desk table and said, "I want to hear what you mean. General Kong was defeated. How should our army go next?"

A general with a good relationship with Kong Yuan immediately said: "The head coach, the last general volunteered to destroy Cen Xi and avenge General Kong."

The generals agreed, "Chief Commander, General Kong's great defeat is the shame of our army. The last general also thinks that we should send troops to Cen Xi immediately to fight against the Song army!"

These generals are not stupid people. Among them, those who knew that Kong Yuan’s defeat had already begun to think about the next strategy on the way.

But some generals held different opinions and said: "The generals of the head coach, Wutongling's mistake was just a temporary mistake. The last general felt that according to the original strategy, when Deputy General Yesuer led his army to the outside of Wuzhou City, we will attack Wuzhou in a large scale and block the north and east sides of the Song army from the middle, and slowly plan to do it."

Boyan didn't say anything.

The generals in the hall were already talking back and forth, and they started to discuss.

But a few minutes later, someone had already cursed, "Damn, General Kong is dead, are you still waiting here?"

"General Kong is dead, how can he change his policy in a hurry because of him?"

The generals of the Yuan Dynasty were roughly divided into three waves, one wave advocated to attack Cen Xi immediately, the other wave advocated to act according to the original plan, and the other wave was silent.

"Enough."

Until the generals even wanted to fight, Boyan's hand slapped heavily on the table, "Silent!"

The generals immediately calmed down.

In the army, this situation is extremely common. After all, they are all men who lick blood from the edge of a knife. Boyan has become accustomed to it.

He said: "General Kong's defeat was because I underestimated the Song army too much. We have only 130,000 soldiers and horses in the city now. If the Song army mobilizes troops and horses in Cenxi County, our army may not be able to take Cenxi in a short time. It's better to wait for Deputy Commander Yesuer to lead the troops to join!"

He waved his hand and said, "Send an order to let the army's weapons workshop develop the Song army's thunder cannon! Hurry up and make it!"

"Chief Coach!"

The general who advocated attacking Cen Xi immediately avenged him, but when he saw Boyan's cold eyes, he could only swallow what he said.

As the Grand Marshal who attacked Song, Boyan had extremely high prestige in the Yuan court, and this was even more so in the army.

In fact, after he remembered Kublai Khan's words, he had no intention of sending troops to Cen Xi immediately. The generals from Xuan came here just to go through the motions.

Those generals who were so upset because of Kong Yuan’s defeat must have a place to vent their emotions.

Wouldn't it be nice to quarrel in the hall and vent the anger in your heart?

Boyan glanced at the generals and said, "Everyone should go back. Without my command from my commander, no one should act rashly."

The generals who were unwilling to accept the order when they saw that Boyan's face was extremely serious, so they could only accept the order and left.

So, the past four days.

Zhao Dongting led a large army to Cenxi County, only thirty miles away from Cenxi.

During the four days, no news came from the Yuan army in Duanxi City. However, there was news from Jingjiang Mansion that Yesuer's army had arrived at Jingjiang Mansion.

Zhao Dongting did not lead his army into the city, but set up camp in Huangweidang, 30 miles south of Cenxi County.

Huang Weidang used to be a village, but now it is already empty.

After the army set up camp, he immediately asked Fei Ge to send a message to Zhang Jue and Wen Tianxiang, asking them to pay attention to Yesuer's movements at all times. If Yesuer's army intended to meet with Boyan, he would lead the army to Wuzhou and shrink the defense line.

Although even if all the troops gathered, the Song army could not resist the Yuan army. But at present, there was nothing we could do about it.

Forced by the overall situation.

If the Yuan army merged and the Song army still maintained a long line of defense, it would only be destroyed by the Yuan army.

In Cenxi County, Zhang Hongwei also led the Tianji Army to arrive.

He and Su Quandang Feige sent a message to Zhao Dongting and asked Zhao Dongting whether he led his army into the city. Zhao Dongting replied that he would not, but just let him stay in Cenxi with peace of mind.

In this era, wars were all about defending and sieging the city, but Zhao Dongting came from descendants and was not limited to this style of fighting.

As long as the food and supplies are sufficient, where to station is not stationed?

He led his army to be stationed in Huangweidang, and Cenxi County was ahead to resist the Yuan army. When the Yuan army attacked, he could still wait for an opportunity to act. If he led his army to be stationed in Cenxi County, he would really have to wait for the Yuan army to attack the city.

Su Quandang's letter reporting on the results of Wutongling mentioned that the Yuan army had thunder and thunder in the letter, so Zhao Dongting felt that the city was no longer so reliable.

He thought about this situation because the sky thunder could not be hidden forever.

And when both sides have firearms, the city that seemed solid seemed a little fragile.

Most of the city walls of this era are only about five meters wide, and some county towns are narrower, and they are still earthen walls, which cannot even be blocked by catapults. How can they block the bombing of shells?

Unless it is almost the same as the extremely high and wide walls as Wuzhou City.

But how many cities in the whole world can have the majestic atmosphere of Wuzhou City?

In the plain, as long as there were not too many Yuan troops, Zhao Dongting felt that he had a more advantage.

Time always passes quickly.

Before he knew it, Zhao Dongting led his army to Huang Weidang for eight days.

The Yuan army in Duanxi City never heard of movement.

Yesuer's army rushed south and headed straight for Wuzhou City. At this time, it was only two days away from Wuzhou City.

Zhang Jue and Wen Tianxiang quickly closed the defense line and completely abandoned the cities to the west. All the troops were stationed in Pingnan, Liangjin and Wuzhou.

By this time, the strategic intentions of the Yuan army were almost obvious.

They want to take Wuzhou.

The geographical location of Wuzhou is so important. As long as Wuzhou is captured, the Boyan army in the east can be completely unobstructed.

Moreover, with the strength of Wuzhou City, they can be said to be invincible.

At that time, the Yuan army will be stationed in Wuzhou, and will remain undefeated, and will continue to send troops out of the city to attack the Song army. What can the Song army do?
