end song

In mid-October, Xiangyang is already very cold.

In the evening, another day of fighting ended.

Lu Wenhuan put on an extra leather jacket over his battle armor, and stood on the city wall watching the returning ships on the Han River.

Corpses kept floating over, and the militiamen in Xiangyang City were responsible for salvaging and burying them.

Even the corpses of the rebels will be buried, because Lu Wenhuan said that they were also comrades in the fight against Mongolia on the Sichuan and Sichuan battlefields.

After watching, a battle report was handed to him.

"At Gengwu of each October, the rebel army besieged Ezhou, and the defender Zhuang Xuyang surrendered to the city. Lu Wenfu failed in street fighting and was arrested. Lu Shilong led his troops to Jiangzhou to ask for help."

Just a short sentence, and it's over in the blink of an eye.

He couldn't believe it immediately after seeing it, so he watched it again, twice.

It seems that there is no more information in such a short battle report.

"Where's the messenger?"

Lu Wenhuan walked towards the messenger, with a stern face, he opened his mouth and shouted: "Hugh, pretend I don't know, Li Ni sent you to deceive me."

"General, the villain is Gong Ping, who fought with the general in the battle of Sizhou..."

Lu Wenhuan took a closer look, and then remembered that he had indeed seen the impressively ugly face in front of him.

He frowned, wondering if Ezhou was really lost?
……

All the way from Xiangyang City to Longzhongshan Camp, Lu Wenhuan finally accepted the fact that Ezhou might have fallen.

Faintly, this incident brought him some vigilance.

After walking to the big tent, Lu Wende's voice came out, still so rough.

"Lao Liu is here? Come in!"

"Brother."

Lu Wenhuan lifted the curtain and walked in, and saw Lu Wende sitting there shirtless, letting his in-laws and shadow portrait Qiu Xiaheng do acupuncture.

The once strong body has loose skin, only another old scar on Dao still proves that this man has been fighting for the country.

As Qiu Zhenheng stuck the gold needles on, after a while, Lu Wende's back was covered with fine sweat.

"Shao Bao's body is too damp, it's best to eat lightly and drink less cold wine." Qiu Zhenheng said, "Especially don't get angry anymore, you need to know that anger can lead to disease, and anger can lead to gangrene."

"Hahaha." Lu Wende said abruptly, "Only what my relatives said, if I can not get angry, would I still be Lu Heitan?"

"Brother, just listen to Qiu Weng once, take care of your health." Lu Wenhuan also stepped forward to persuade.

"Sit down, sixth son. Instead of saying these things are useless, let's talk about when Li Ni will be taken down so that I can go back to Ezhou earlier."

"Ezhou..."

"Li Ni left Chang'an not long after he proclaimed himself emperor, and was surrounded by Lao Tzu. His rear must have been unstable, and the morale of the army must be in turmoil. The food and arrows are almost used up. I think this battle is about to be won."

Lu Wenhuan was in a daze when he heard Lu Wende say that Li Xia's rear was unstable, and worried that the news about Ezhou would make Lu Wende angry.

But such a big event cannot be hidden after all.

"Brother, I'm afraid it's us who are unstable in the rear. I got an urgent report that Ezhou is lost..."

"Fool, where did you hear the news? The dog hozen surnamed Li is cheating again." Lu Wende shouted: "Go and kill the messenger."

"Probably true."

Lu Wenhuan sighed and told all the news he knew.

Although Lu Wende cursed loudly, unexpectedly, he was not too furious.

After all, the soldiers and horses have experienced too many storms and waves throughout their lives.

"Damn, I still don't believe it, and wait for the follow-up news. Damn, maybe my four sons can get Ezhou back, and Shi Jun doesn't even have 2 people."

"Brother, Ezhou can be lost. It can be seen that Enxiang's reform has lost popular support in the past two years. It may be difficult to get it back."

Lu Wenhuan has long been aware of the internal and external troubles of the Great Song Dynasty, and even himself has conflicts with the Gundam who originally guarded Xiangyang, and with the Gundam's generals.
There is a gap.

Lu Wendechi was aware of this, but he didn't care that much, and said, "That's when I get rid of Li Ni and take his head back to Ezhou."

"I'm afraid that if Ezhou is lost, I will attack Li again.

It is difficult to reverse.One is that the Tumen family’s Juantian property is all in Ezhou, and the morale of the army is easy to be unstable; the other is that Shi Jun and Jiang Cai can cut off our logistics at any time, and even advance to Lin’an..."

"What's your opinion, old six?" Lu Wende shouted, "Li Ni has been besieged here, can you let him go?"

Taking advantage of our battle with Li Ni, more and more troops are stationed.fighting

"Meng Yuan built a fortress on Lumen Mountain in the name of opening a market, and took advantage of our battle with Li Ni to garrison more and more troops. If the war drags on, if Meng Yuan fisherman benefits... "

"Procrastinate further? How long can Li Ni last? How can he support it?!"

When Lu Wende got angry, the moxibustion needles on his body dangled violently.

Qiu Zhenheng quickly removed the needle and persuaded him, "Shao Bao don't get angry."

"In-laws, come and tell Lao Liu, what did that sentence say, the great cause of countering the rebellion is only the last step, this dog Lao Liu wants to piss me off."

"Six generals, for the sake of the mountain, it's hard to come by. It's so rare to surround Li Ni to this extent. Can you teach Shaobao to retreat?"

Lu Wenhuan said: "If you still want to negotiate peace with Li Ni in the end, it is better to negotiate peace as soon as possible."

"You can talk about peace after he's dead."

Lu Wende was very angry, but because the moxibustion needles on his body hadn't been removed, he couldn't hit Lu Wenhuan twice like he did when he was young.

He then took two deep breaths, and said earnestly: "The reason why the imperial court talked with Meng Yuanhe was because he was a barbarian and could not take over the world of the Song Dynasty. Li Ni was different. He wanted to replace the Zhao family. There may be peace talks with Li Ni."

Lu Wenhuan said: "But the current situation, if Li Ni and Meng Yuan can..."

"I know what you are afraid of. You are a waste who was scared by Meng Yuan! I have been fighting with the Mongols all my life, and how many times I have beaten them to death. Let's put it this way, the Mongols don't know how to fight in water, and they don't pose a threat to the court. , destroy Li Ni first, and Ezhou will naturally be brought back."

When Lu Wende waved his hands, he was quite heroic.

Lu Wenhuan couldn't resist this elder brother, so he had to retreat with a sigh, and turned back to Xiangyang to prepare for the battle, preparing for another round of offensive against Li Xia.

As soon as he left, Chen Yuanbin came to see him.

"Shao Bao, did the Sixth General come here just now? The students heard that Li Ni came here for a few days and sent people to see the Sixth General."

"So what? Is Lao Tzu's sixth younger brother going to be a traitor?!"

Lu Wende shouted, Chen Yuanbin quickly lowered his head, not daring to say any more.

While packing up the medicine box, Qiu Zhenheng looked at this scene, secretly looked at Chen Yuanbin, and seemed to be a little suspicious.

It was just nightfall, and some generals in the camp shouted to drink.

Several people got out of the big tent to look, and saw a ball of fireworks blooming on the Longzhong Mountain in the distance, illuminating a large area of ​​the sky.

It didn't take long for cheers to erupt from the rebel fleet on the Han River.

After that, the rebels began to shout at the Song army on the river bank again.

"Taking Ezhou, copying Lu Laogou's retreat!"

"Brothers on the opposite side! Ezhou has been taken by us, and you are surrounded!"

"Return to Sheng Tianzi, and turn against the faint king of the Zhao family..."

~~
Li Xia was also watching the fireworks in the cabin.

"so beautiful."

Yan Rong and Tang An'an both lay down in front of the window and raised their heads, showing their profiles to Li Xia from left to right, and praised at the same time, but they didn't know that they were more beautiful than the fireworks.

That day when the splendor faded away, Yan Rong hugged Li Xia's arm and said, "Is it Ezhou that has taken it? The messenger has flowed upstream to Xiangyang, and Lin'an must have received the news."

At this point, she couldn't help but pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Xie Daoqing Xu is holding his silly son and crying in fright."

"Probably will cry." Li Xia didn't recognize Xie Daoqing, but when he thought of Zhao Xuan's Xiangzi, he thought

Most likely to be terrified.

Since the war between Song and Mongolia, the Mongolian army has attacked Huangzhou once and Ezhou once. These are the two closest to Lin'an, but they have not broken the city.

In other words, the Tang army's attack on Ezhou this time was the latest war that the Lin'an imperial court had encountered since its journey to the south.

It's not that Shi Jun's combat strength of less than 2 people is much stronger than Kublai Khan's.

Shi Jun attacked Hubei
The advantage of Zhou over Kublai Khan is that he is not a foreign captive, and the resistance he encounters is not so firm.Moreover, the morale of the army and civilians in Ezhou is obviously not as good as it was back then.

Therefore, before the battle, Li Xia thought he was [-]% sure.

"Perhaps by now, the country that asked our Majesty for peace has already been handed over from Lin'an."

This time, the food and grass in the army are about to run out, and the food and grass for one day have been divided into two days.Yan Rong and Tang An'an used to live a pampered life and were quite unaccustomed to the hardships in the army. Seeing that they were finally going to make it through, they were very happy.

"Your Majesty is finally going to win and return to court. I have to take a good bath when I return to Chang'an. Look at our An'an, we are all starved and thin."

"Sister...I don't, I'm not hungry."

"Is that because His Majesty made you thin?"

"No...no."

Li Xia let out a sigh of relief, and said with a slight smile, "I have to bear with it a little longer, Song Ting may not necessarily ask for peace."

"Then really go to Lin'an." Yan Rong said: "The concubine also wants to eat the food of Fenglelou, isn't your majesty just going to take the concubine to Lin'an?"

In fact, she didn't understand the situation, and said all this was nothing more than to accompany Li Xia to relieve boredom.

But the sentence "go to Lin'an" seems to have really given Li Xia some kind of thinking and confidence.

The worry in his eyes also disappeared a lot.

Yan Rong probably sensed Li Xia's slight emotional change, smiled triumphantly, and cupped his face with his hand.

"Your Majesty will get up early again tomorrow, will my concubine and An An wait for Your Majesty to rest earlier tonight?"

"It's going to be later tonight." Li Xia lifted her aside, "Okay, I'll watch the fireworks with you, I have to meet someone."

Yan Rong refused, so he stretched out his hand to untie Li Xia's belt, and said coquettishly, "I'm on these warships day and night, who else can see it? Your Majesty might as well let those civil and military officials rest."

Li Xia let her undress and said, "Change me some clothes, just this ordinary one..."

~~
Changing into an ordinary black suit, Li Xia stepped out of the cabin and jumped onto the ordinary boat.

The punters were Huo Xiaolian and several soldiers from the Fengfeng Battalion, who hesitated for a while.

Li Xia said again: "Go, don't alarm Fang Qing."

"Yes." Huo Xiaolian said, "The last general has already inquired. Lu Wenhuan didn't set up an ambush, but just came out in a small boat."

"I know……"
