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

Chapter 316 The first step in 400 years

In early August, without the interference of the heat, the war in Jinan became more intense.

Originally, after being beaten for less than half a year, the morale of the Jinan defenders had dropped to a low point, and half of Jinan City was lost.

After Zhenjin learned about the situation, he appointed the Duke of Ji, Zhang Hong, as the general, and his eldest son Gan Mala as the military envoy, and led [-] reinforcements. Although the reinforcements failed to drive the Song army out, they successfully stabilized the defense line.

The north is at a stalemate, and the south is also fighting fiercely.

With the help of various tribes, the Song army successfully raided Fuzhou. Dali Buhan and Chen Guobao immediately sent troops to return for reinforcements. At the same time, the political minister of Yunnan Pingzhang, Nasu Ladin, also sent [-] troops to attack Fuzhou.

Jiang Qimiao was not idle again. When he mobilized a large army to encircle Hasan, he also sent a reinforcement army into Fuzhou to firmly control the passage. state.

Since ancient times, there have been two roads from Guangxi to Yunnan. One is the Pu'an Road, which is [-] miles long, with Wuzhou as its gateway. The other is the Temo Road, only [-] miles long, with Fuzhou as its exit.

The Song army controlled these two places, which meant that the [-]-strong army was surrounded.

Therefore, when the Yuan army arrived in Fuzhou, they immediately attacked with all their strength, but the Song army was equally desperate and never allowed the Yuan army to take advantage.

At this time, Chen Guobao was making the final mobilization to his subordinates: "Brothers, the Song army in Fuzhou City has run out of gunpowder. With swords and guns, can they stop the Mongol warriors?"

"No, no~" Yuan Bing shouted wildly.

"In this battle, I will take the lead. If I retreat, I will be beheaded. If I retreat, I will behead the general. If the army retreats, then the army will be beheaded. If we advance or retreat, we will surely attack Fuzhou!" Chen Guobao roared.

"If we advance without retreating, we will go to Fuzhou!" Yuan Bing roared.

Most of the soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty were from Yunnan, and they deeply missed Ding's kindness, so they persisted until now. Now that they saw the hope of returning home, they all burst out with their last courage.

On the top of the city, He Hua looked at the assembled Yuan army and said, "We will fight to the death today to repay the country's kindness."

"It has been ten years since we started the army in Xinzhou. I have been awarded the title of Lieutenant General and the title of Marquis. I will die without regrets!" Lieutenant General Zhang Yi said.

"There is no need to be pessimistic." General Staff Officer Lin Xingguo said: "When we first raised the army, we had no guns and artillery, but we still won battles repeatedly. Today we have run out of gunpowder, why can't we fight?"

"It is indeed true." He Hua said: "Maybe the marshal has captured Hasan and is sending his troops to help. If we persist for a few days, things will turn around."

"It must be like this." Zhang Yi said.

I thought they had no hope of surviving when they raised an army after Lin'an was defeated, but Jiang Zhuan led his troops south, so he turned from a dead soldier into a hero, and he was granted the title of marquis and general in ten years, which was really not a loss.

On the city, the Song army clenched their swords and guns, and the Yuan army had already launched an attack.

The city wall was in ruins and no equipment was needed. After a hail of arrows, both sides engaged in hand-to-hand combat.

Chen Guobao entered the gap first, pushed aside two spears, and chopped down a Song soldier with one blow. Seeing how ferocious he was, Zhang Yi raised his iron spear and faced him.

When they meet on a narrow road, the brave wins, and both sides fight to the death.

From the camp at the rear, a horseman galloped towards him. When he arrived in front of Dali Buhan, he bowed and said, "Marshal, the forward troops of Song Army and Miao Zaicheng are already ten miles away."

"We've been waiting for him for a long time!" Dali Buhan raised his sword and mounted his horse, shouting: "Left and right, follow me to meet the enemy!"

"Kill!" Yuan Bing shouted wildly.

The army went out of the camp and entered the fortifications, preparing for a big battle.

Although Hasan fled with only about a hundred people in the end, he managed to conquer seven cities and occupied the main force of the Song army for half a year. Unfortunately, he missed a few moves and wasted the opportunity. Now he can only sacrifice his life. fill.Not a moment later, the Song army arrived, without any nonsense, and immediately formed an attack.

The Yuan army concentrated its last gunpowder here, firmly resisting the Song army's desperate attack. However, as the main force of the Song army arrived, the Yuan army was finally unable to defeat it and was defeated.

"Don't chase the poor aggressors, support Fuzhou immediately!" Miao Zaicheng, the commander of the army, moved forward.

Chen Guobao had already reached the bell tower in Fuzhou. He saw that if he tried harder, he could completely defeat the Song army. However, he was stabbed in the back. The morale of the entire army was completely wiped out, and many people surrendered.

"Let's go into the mountains!" Chen Guobao said bitterly.

With only about [-] people around, there was a good chance of crossing the mountains, but the tribes would not let them leave safely.

Hearing the gunfire resounding in Fuzhou City, Nasuading knew that the Song army's reinforcements had arrived, and sadly withdrew his troops, planning to retreat to Jie Yeman to ensure that the Song army would not enter Yunnan.

But Miao Zaicheng didn't rest, and didn't even have time to feel sad about Zhang Yi's death. He just sent his troops to chase him.

Nasulatin was unable to fight for a long time. He was originally a tired soldier. He barely blocked the pursuit of the Song army, but he was still lost.

Once their morale dropped, they could only retreat again and again. This time they retreated to Yuezhou City on Qujing Road. Although Nasuading finally managed to stabilize their position, the Song army was not far from Kunming.

The news spread back to Chengtian Mansion, and the center jumped for joy.

"In the 26th year of Kaiyuan (738), Piluoge, the leader of the Mengshezhao tribe in the Erhai area and a native of Ailaoyi, merged with the other five Zhaos and established the Nanzhao Kingdom. The Tang Dynasty canonized him as the King of Yunnan.

In the first year of Tianbao, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Rong Prefecture was placed in charge of 36 prefectures. In the ninth year, Nanzhao occupied the entire territory of Yunnan, professed Tubo as its vassal, and took the country's name of Dameng. Yunnan began to break away from the Central Plains.

In the fourth year of Emperor Zhenyuan of the Tang Dynasty, Tubo conferred the title of King Ridong. The following year, Nanzhao returned to the Tang Dynasty. Emperor Wenzong of the Tang Dynasty rebelled again in the third year of Taihe. In the 13th year of Emperor Xuanzong's reign of the Tang Dynasty (859), he pretended to be an empire and named it Dali, so Yunnan was no longer the Central Plains. All in all, it has been more than four hundred years. "

Li Tingzhi popularized the history and continued: "Now that Wang Shi enters Yunnan, he should show his prestige, caress him with virtue, and publicize him with courtesy. Three-pronged approach will eventually lead to long-term peace and stability."

"I second the proposal." Wang Yinglin said: "The pseudo-Yuan Dynasty has ruled Yunnan for a long time, but it has been governed by Han culture. Moreover, during the Duan family period in Dali, Yunnan was deeply Hanized. Now that the army is pressing down on the territory, it is time to take a step forward."

"Your Majesty, please first discuss the merits of the generals in Guangxi." Lu Xiufu couldn't help but say.

The cabinet's primary concern was long-term peace and stability, but he was still the Privy Councilor and had to consider appeasing the morale of the military.

Zhao Shi said: "This battle is all about Fuzhou not being lost, and no one has done more good than He Hua Zhang Yi.

He went to Xinzhou to raise troops to fight against the Tartars, and fought in Guangdong and Guangxi for ten years without slacking off. Now Zhang Yi died for his country, and was posthumously awarded the title of Marshal, the county king of Xinzhou, and the posthumous title Wulie.General He Huajin, made the Duke of the state. "

In the 11 years since he ascended the throne, many generals died for state affairs, but Zhang Yi was the only lieutenant general who died on the battlefield, so a generous pension was added.

In fact, Zhao didn't know that Zhang Yi and He Hua were easily killed by Chen Guobao in history. Not only did they not cause any trouble, they were also unknown.

The two biggest heroes were determined, and the rest was discussed by the Privy Council and the Cabinet.

Fuzhou had 2 troops, but only [-] survived, and other units suffered more than [-] battle losses. Adding in the dead and wounded militiamen and the cities destroyed by Hassan, all the tax revenue from Guangdong and Fujian had to be poured in for pensions, which was not enough. .

In other words, the Song Dynasty took its first step in 400 years, but it was no longer able to make progress unless the war in the north was suspended.

However, it is impossible for Shandong to stop right now.
