At the end of Song Dynasty: I want to be the master of ZTE

Chapter 190 Let's Run
On January [-], the Song fleet crossed the Jingjiang Estuary into Dongting Lake and appeared on the water outside Yuezhou City.

Yuezhou was built next to the water. There was a dock outside the west gate of the city. At this time, many mounds of earth had been piled up, and Yuan soldiers were hiding among them.

The Guan Da saw clearly from the ship and ordered: "Send orders to all ships to avoid the Yueyang Tower as much as possible, and ignore the rest."

Anyone who has read a book, who doesn’t yearn for Yueyang Tower?Guan Da is a rough man, but he is well-educated and cannot avoid vulgarity. However, every ship has keenly noticed the word "try your best".

In later generations, if you dare to write on the Yueyang Tower, you will be detained for several days even if you visit here. Now it is just a city gate, and it is famous at most. It is not unusual to say that.

Seeing the Song ship getting closer and closer, the soldiers on the dock were in a state of commotion.

It was so dark that the leading ship looked taller than the city wall, which was really scary.

The fleet slowly approached, and the ship's hull lay across the shore. The windows on the ship's wall were opened one after another, and the black muzzles were revealed.

"Brothers, if we don't surrender now, when will we wait?"

"Who? If you disturb the morale of the army, you should be killed!" the capital head Shi Yun shouted.

"Brothers, there are 3000 of us, and there are only [-] people named Shi. Let's go."

"Thirty percent tax, no corvee and miscellaneous taxes, join the army."

"Leave if you want to live!"

"Wait for the officers and soldiers to kill us, we can only wait for death."

While shouting, more than a hundred soldiers rushed out of the trenches.

"Run away, kill!"

Shi Yun shouted, drew his bow and nocked an arrow, and shot a soldier to the ground with a hiss. Just as he was about to shoot the second arrow, he suddenly heard the sound of the evil wind behind him and immediately fell forward.

stab~
The long knife dragged across the leather armor and made a long gash.

"Brothers, the Tartars are asking us to die, let's fight!"

"Let's fight~"

Hundreds more soldiers jumped out and rushed towards Shi Jia's army with eager eyes.

The other soldiers did not take action immediately, but they were all tempted.

Shi Yun saw the situation clearly at a glance and knew that nothing could be done, so he immediately ran into the city. The other generals made the same choice.

"Brothers, let's go."

"At this critical moment, why are you hesitating?"

"Welcome the officers and soldiers to live a good life."

Under Xi Zuo's encouragement, the soldiers stood up one after another, ran to the water's edge and knelt down with their weapons raised. Some also walked around the city and went home with their weapons.

"Straight bitch!" Shige jumped angrily and cursed: "How can an ungrateful person be worthy of being a human being? Come on, follow me out and kill the traitor!"

"General, calm down." The left and right people advised him, "The troops are disorganized and unable to hold on. We should inform the prince to withdraw westward quickly, and we will choose a place to respond."

When Shige looked back, the soldiers all lowered their heads to avoid his gaze, and no one responded directly to him.

Song Jun's momentum has been established, and he alone cannot change it.

"Gather the troops, take away those who are willing to leave, and let those who are unwilling to leave as they please." Shige walked out of the city in low spirits.

At this time, in Ezhou City, everyone gathered around Zhenjin to persuade him.

"Your Highness is the foundation of the country and cannot be put in danger."

"When the Song army goes west, they will capture Yuezhou and cut off my return. Prince, I have no time to hesitate."

"Shi Ge only has [-] new troops, and there are no thunders from the sky, so it will be difficult to last."

"If something happens to His Highness, and the inside and outside are shaken, I'm afraid the Han River will be shaken, and Shaanxi will be in trouble."

"The Song army is in great difficulty and should retreat to Xiangyang for a long time."

Zhenjin could no longer control his anger and shouted: "Back then, Jia Sidao and his civil servants could defend Ezhou, but I couldn't?"

"Today is different from the past. Your Highness, please don't act on your own initiative." He Wei advised.

"Wuchang has been lost, and the border defense line is in vain. If the Song army from Liling and Yueyang joins forces, we will all become trapped beasts. We have nothing to worry about. If the prince is lost, who will your Majesty pay the country to?" Ali Hague said.

He really didn't like Zhen Jinru's Confucianism, but he knew that he was the best successor. He had no choice but to let the other brothers fail.

The most important thing is that under the current situation, only Zhenjin can win the hearts of the Han people, and no other prince can.

Zhenjin took a few breaths, tried hard to suppress his anger, and said: "If I leave, what will happen to Ezhou?"

"I am willing to defend the city." Yu Zhishao, the former general commander of Yuezhou and now the general manager of the New Army in Ezhou, said proactively.

Everyone looked at him with scrutiny.

When the Yuan army attacked Yuezhou, Gao Shijie, the deputy envoy to pacify Hubei and the governor of Yuezhou in the Song Dynasty, led his troops to fight, but was defeated and surrendered. Ali Hague used Gao Shijie's strength to surrender, but still beheaded him, and used a spear to expose his head to surrender to Yuezhou. He was so frightened that he raised the city to surrender.

Now Ezhou is almost in danger. With Yu Zishao's character, can he defend it for two days?

Yu Zhishao's face turned red and he said: "I just lost my integrity, why would I lose my integrity again? I deserve to die!"

This reason is not enough.

It is true that the three surnames of domestic slaves do not sound good, but there are actually many people who jumped from Song to Yuan and then back to Song. Who knows whether Meng Zhisao plans to welcome Master Wang?

Interrupted by him, Zhenjin regained his composure and said: "That's it, Ezhou is isolated in a corner, and there is no point in defending it. The whole army retreats to Tanzhou, and then orders Li Heng and others to retreat to Xiangyang. We must block the Song division from under the Han River. "

The generals breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Zhenjin was willing to leave, it was out of control as to whether Li Heng could run away.

The Yangtze River was lost, and communication between the north and the south had to bypass Dongting Lake and find a place to cross the river. The round trip was three to four thousand miles, and the day lilies were cold.

Back at the camp, Yu Zhishao kept sighing.

"Why is the general like this?" military aircraft counselor Shan Yuanchang asked.

"Back then, the Great Yuan Dynasty was coming fiercely, and the whole world was in ruins. The Song Dynasty could not last long and was bound to be destroyed, but I didn't want to think about it now..." Yu Zhishao hesitated, but Shan Yuanchang understood instantly.

The situation has changed, and it is not worthwhile to follow Dayuan.

"General, this is the day to find your way back. If you retreat to the west, it will be too late to regret it." Shan Yuanchang said.

Meng Zhishao asked: "Why teach me?"

Shan Yuanchang said: "Command the entire army and seize the gate to the east. As long as we move quickly, even if we block it with real gold, it will be of no use."

"Let's do it like this." Meng Zhishao made a quick decision.

Most of his subordinates were soldiers from Yuezhou, and they were given all the treatment they deserved, and the win over was pretty good. As long as he told them that Yuezhou was occupied by the Song army, they would most likely join the Song army.

The plan was decided, and Meng Zhishao first called his confidants to talk about it, and everyone agreed.

Immediately, the generals were summoned to discuss matters. Because all the armies were doing this, the Mongolian supervisors had no doubts. When Dala La came, he was chopped into eight pieces on the spot.

Meng Zhishao looked at me eagerly and asked: "I want to join the Song Dynasty. What do you think?"

"Let the generals drive you," the generals replied.

So the five thousand soldiers of the whole army packed up and immediately left the camp. When they arrived at the gate of the city, the Yuan soldiers on duty asked for orders.

"Kill!" Meng Zhishao ordered to seize the door.

The Yuan soldiers were unprepared and were killed on the spot. Meng Zhishao's troops left the city and ran towards the embrace of freedom.

When Zhenjin received his reward, he flew into a rage and shouted: "Come on, I will lead my troops to pursue him. I will capture and kill him as a warning to others!"

"Your Highness, calm down." He Wei advised: "The situation is critical. Your Highness will go first. I will lead five hundred soldiers to kill him."

"Okay, thank you, Zhongyun." Zhenjin responded.

"It is the duty of an minister." He Wei went out, ordered an army of [-] horses, and chased Meng Zhishao away.

Zhenjin's anger was relieved, and he urged all the troops to pack up quickly. He did not bring any heavy equipment such as Huihui artillery or crossbows. He only brought the food and grass for the day. It was extremely streamlined.

"Your Highness, there is a lot of food and grass left, what should I do with it?" Tumuge'er asked.

"Let the whole city know that the grain and grass in the storehouse are free to be taken by oneself." Zhenjin also thought about making a comeback in the future to win over a wave of people's hearts.
