The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 1081 To Baozhou City
That night.

Zhao Dongting invited Yue Peng into the palace again.

The monarch and his ministers drink and discuss in the imperial garden.

Yue Peng intends to leave for Xiangyang Mansion tomorrow.Before the New Song Dynasty is destroyed, it may be difficult for the two brothers to see each other again.

When he was drunk, Zhao Dongting suddenly took out the jade hairpin he got from Baicao Valley from his bosom, and handed it to Yue Peng, "Duan Qilin went to Xin Song, there must be many masters gathered in Xin Song. You keep this jade hairpin." Get close. When the seniors of Wu Ding Tang come back from exterminating the traitors in the Jianghu, I will send experts to find you and help you."

Duan Qilin gave up Dali because he still had the Xinsong retreat.But to attack the New Song Dynasty, the Forbidden Army of the Great Song Dynasty will definitely encounter a crazy counterattack.

Although the Shenlong gun in the army can suppress those who are strong in real martial arts, Zhao Dongting naturally does not want the army to be lacking in top military strength.

No one knows how many masters Duan Qilin has beside him.

Yue Peng also knew about this miraculous jade hairpin, his eyes were slightly moved, he took the jade hairpin and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhao Dongting held up the wine jar, "Let's not talk about this, brothers. Come on, keep drinking."

Then, the monarch and his subjects drank until it was very dark, and even the eunuch holding the lamp next to him yawned slightly before they dispersed.

Before parting, Yue Peng said to Zhao Dongting: "Your Majesty, I will entrust you to take care of my younger sister from now on."

Zhao Dongting's eyes were slightly drunk, he nodded and said, "Okay."

If Yue Yue is willing to marry him as a concubine, he will certainly not let Yue Yue continue to serve as the Lord of the Shadow Palace and perform various tasks.

The next day.

Yue Peng led the Tiankui Army to leave Changsha early in the morning and head towards Xiangyang Mansion.

In the city of Changsha, there is another scene of people sending off each other.

Zhao Dongting did not leave the palace to see him off.

At the same time, Wu Amiao, who had just returned to Changsha City for only two days, bid farewell to Zhao Dongting and left Changsha with Ah Hong.

Ahong's parents were placed in the family compound of Wudingtang.Wu Amiao didn't ask Zhao Dongting to come forward in person, so she asked Fen Xiang, the former owner of Baicao Valley and the current owner of Baicao Palace, to see a doctor for Ahong's mother.

Ah Hong's mother suffered from rheumatism, which is a persistent disease for ordinary doctors.But it is nothing to Fennel, who has mastered profound medical skills.

Zhao Dongting named Ah Hong, whose real name was Liu Hong, as the wife of the fourth rank.He also dispatched fifty palace guards to accompany Wu Amiao.

This is for Wu Amiao to call the scene.

And the departure of him and Yue Peng naturally made Zhao Dongting's life a little deserted.

With only the ladies in the palace, and the two children Zhao An and Zhao Ru, Zhao Dongting certainly wouldn't feel lonely.

And he doesn't have time to be alone either.

Because the recovery of Huainan West Road, Huainan East Road, Jiangnan East Road, Liangzhe West Road, Liangzhe East Road and Jingxi South Road is basically a foregone conclusion.Just the transfer of officials can make him quite exhausted.

Although these roads are small in size, as the former center of the Southern Song Dynasty, they are more prosperous than Dali.

It is impossible for Zhao Dongting to send officials there casually.

Who to send to take charge of the overall situation, and who to send to assist, all require careful consideration by him as an emperor.

The chief officials from all walks of life must be capable people, and the adjutants must not be bad, and they need to be quite tough-tempered people.

As the emperor, Zhao Dongting didn't want any situation where there was nothing to say.

Another day.

The letter from Qi Hongda, the ambassador of the Yuan Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, was sent to Yuan Zhongdu.

Sang Ge finally breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the letter, and hurried to Kublai Khan's bedroom to ask for an interview.

Qi Hongda wrote in a letter that Emperor Song was very happy that Dayuan could use Jingxi South Road as a betrothal gift.

Kublai Khan immediately ordered Sang Ge to withdraw the soldiers gathered in Nanjing and Jingzhaofu.At the same time, the army that suppressed the northern border of Song State began to withdraw.

The Yuan Dynasty was not like the Song Dynasty, soldiers were soldiers.Many of their soldiers were recruited when there was a battle, and went home to farm when there was no battle.The army continued to suppress the northern border of the Song Dynasty, which also put great pressure on the Yuan court.Because there are fewer folk farmers, and the imperial court has to continuously deliver food to the army.

This is a very labor-intensive thing.

In this era, many countries were dragged down abruptly because of successive years of war.

Hundreds of thousands of troops, the daily food requirements are astronomical.

Kublai Khan had already decided to hide his strength and bide his time, and of course he would not let the army stay in the northern border of the Great Song Dynasty.

And so on for a few more days.

After Liu Zhuwen, Zhang Hongwei and Miao Cheng led the army to leave Huazhu Department, they arrived outside Baozhou City in Delongdong Prefecture.

Nongdong Mansion is one of the Eight Mansions of Dali, and because it is close to the Dali Imperial City, it is somewhat special in Dali.In the entire mansion, no tribe thrived.

That is to say, the entire Nongdong Mansion can be said to be the power of the direct line of the Dali royal family.

Only because the chassis of Nongdong Mansion is not big, its strength is not considered strong.

When Wang Ziqian, Feng Hebi and others attacked the Song Dynasty, only [-] defenders were dispatched from the Nongdong Mansion to follow Chi Fenggu's command.

As for Chi Fenggu's defeat and surrender in Chenzhou, those officers and soldiers of the Nongdong Mansion naturally surrendered as well.Now the remaining soldiers are still being detained in the Zhennan Military Region waiting to be incorporated.

Baozhou is not yet the prefecture of Nongdong, so the remaining troops are naturally limited at this time.

After Liu Zhuwen and others led the army to the outside of the city, they looked at the top of the city with binoculars, only to see that there were not many soldiers on the city.

If we only estimate the number of soldiers at the east gate of Baozhou City, there may only be thousands of soldiers left in the entire Baozhou City.And it is absolutely impossible to exceed five thousand.

After Liu Zhuwen looked at it carefully, he looked at Zhang Hongwei beside him, and said with a smile, "It seems that Nongdong City didn't send any reinforcements."

Nongdong Mansion is also called Tongshi Mansion, and Nongdong City is the prefecture city.The number of its remaining defenders undoubtedly surpassed that of Baozhou City.

But now Nongdong City has not sent reinforcements, which of course can make Liu Zhuwen and others see a lot.

Zhang Hongwei smiled lightly and said: "The monarch of Dali led all his ministers to flee to the middle of Shu in a hurry, and the civil and military officials in this alley mansion probably followed him. Feng Hebi led the remnant army before us and came back to Dali soon. It fell apart. The fighting power of our Great Song Forbidden Army may have been spread throughout Dali, and we may not encounter any resistance if we break through the imperial city of Dali."

Liu Zhuwen smiled, "Commander Zhang, do you think the soldiers in Baozhou City will resist us?"

It was rare for him to see Zhang Hongwei willing to use his brain like this, but he was somewhat interested.

Zhang Hongwei knew that Liu Zhuwen was testing himself, pondered for a while, looked at the city of Baozhou, shook his head and said: "Probably not."

Liu Zhuwen asked, "Why?"

Zhang Hongwei said: "Commander Liu, look at the top of the city. These Baozhou city defenders didn't even move heavy equipment into the city, and the soldiers are sparse. How do they look like they are going to defend the city?"

Liu Zhuwen nodded slightly, "Then why did they leave the city and surrender?"

In the past few days in Dali, he has been deliberately cultivating Zhang Hongwei's tactical quality.

Zhang Hongwei, as a veteran who followed the Great Song Dynasty when he was in Naozhou Island, his qualifications are not far behind Yue Peng and Su Quandang, but he is far less prestigious than Yue Peng and Su Quandang in the army now.

This is not only because Zhang Hongwei is not a marshal, but because his tactical quality and personal ability are much lacking compared to Yue Peng and Su Quandang.

Even now, there are many generals selected from the palace examination in each army that are much better than Zhang Hongwei.

Liu Zhuwen couldn't bear to see Zhang Hongwei disappear from the crowd, so he did it on purpose.

He also knew that the emperor was a nostalgic person, and he would never want to see Zhang Hongwei being overtaken by a rising star.

And if Zhang Hongwei's ability is lacking a lot, the vertical army will be more powerful.In the future, the emperor may only be able to transfer him to a less important position.

Because the emperor must focus on the overall situation.

Zhang Hongwei should also be a little aware of Liu Zhuwen's intentions, so these days, he not only reads military books at night, but also often asks Liu Zhuwen for advice.

If Liu Zhuwen didn't agree, he would even worship Liu Zhuwen as his teacher.

Hearing Liu Zhuwen's words, Zhang Hongwei replied: "It should be waiting for our army to surrender!"

Liu Zhuwen said: "That army commander, you go up and try it?"

Zhang Hongwei nodded, patted his horse and went forward.

He still has guts.

The red ghost quickly patted his horse and followed behind him.

"Shut up!"

Only 200 meters before the city, Zhang Hongwei reined in his horse suddenly.

The war horse with dark and shiny fur raised its front hooves high while neighing.

Zhang Hongwei looked at the top of the city and yelled at the city: "Listen to the generals of Dali! I will destroy Baozhou when the imperial army of the Song Dynasty approaches the city. I just can't bear to see the people in the city suffer. Treat the captives well, and you will not be embarrassed! If not, it doesn't matter what your status is before throwing the bombs."
