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

Chapter 319 Under Jinan City
In Jeju City, Ananda came out of the secret room after praying, and saw Krimadingzi, the veteran minister left by Mang Ge La and the general manager of the palace, standing outside.

Seeing his face beaming with joy, Ananda asked, "But it's done?"

"Your Majesty, your Majesty has predicted everything, and it's done." Krimadinzi smiled and said, "Your Majesty, please come and take a look."

"Okay, it's not in vain that I have been dormant in Jeju for so long!" Ananda was overjoyed and asked Kelima Dingzi to lead the way.

After a while, Wang Jia arrived at the school grounds.

Thousands of soldiers stood around, staring at the two cannons in the center. Dozens of craftsmen stood there tremblingly, feeling at a loss.

Tie Chi, the commander-in-chief of the army, knelt down to greet him and led Ananda to the front of the cannon.

These two cannons are no different from the main artillery of the Yuan army, except that the inscription on the tail is "Prince Anxi supervises the battle".

Yes, this is the cannon that Ananda ordered to be forged in private.

Touching the cold barrel was like touching the smoothest and most delicate beauty. After being intoxicated for a while, Ananda asked: "How is the quality?"

"I was about to invite the king to watch the launch," Tie Chi replied.

"Get ready immediately, I want to see the effect." Ananda ordered.

I had already prepared it, just waiting for Ananda to see it with my own eyes so that I could take the credit.

Seeing that the target was just an ordinary wooden stake, Ananda was dissatisfied and said: "Go and catch some untouchables. I want to see the real power."

Ananda believed deeply in the Tianfang religion, and his soldiers also believed in it. They did not regard the Han people in the Central Plains as their own race, so they were quickly captured and tied to wooden stakes.

It has to be said that the quality of the cannon he forged privately was very good. As soon as the cannon sounded, flesh and blood flew everywhere.

"Okay, okay, okay!" Ananda looked up to the sky and laughed, and said, "I have forbeared until now just for the sake of the technology of forging cannons. Now that I have accomplished this, I will turn to the northwest to establish the foundation of the country."

"Your Majesty," Krimadinzi said, "The Great Khan is still here, so I'm afraid it's hard to disobey military orders."

Ananda never paid attention to real gold, but he really didn't dare to disobey Kublai Khan's order, even if Kublai Khan was lying on his bed.

"Do you have any ideas to help me return home?" Ananda asked.

"Your Majesty, we have been ordered to guard Jeju. The Song Dynasty people dare not invade, I am afraid that the Great Khan will not easily let us turn around." Tie Chi said.

"I have a plan," said his confidant Duo Tiemu: "Jeju and Jinan are at odds with each other. If Jinan falls, Jeju will be unable to support itself alone, so we can withdraw our troops..."

Um?Everyone felt that Tuotiemu's brain circuit was very strange.

As a confidant, of course he knew Ananda's ambitions, and it was not impossible to just sell Jinan...

Kublai Khan is about to die. Once Zhenjin ascends the throne and Ananda has not returned to the fundamental land of the northwest, he will probably not be able to return.

Ananda's beliefs are different, and his actions are not concealed. Yuanting has always known his ambitions. As long as Zhenjin has thoughts about the Northwest, he will definitely keep Ananda in the Central Plains.

Therefore, Ananda wanted to make his own cannon.

Only if you can make your own guns and artillery can you have the confidence to be independent. Even if you cannot stop the Song army in the end, you can still conquer the west, conquer the vast territory with guns and artillery, and pave the way for Tianfang Sect to spread throughout the West.

Several of them were confidants, and they followed this idea to the end and decided to send [-] soldiers to Jinan.

"Gamala has an old grudge with me. After arriving in Jinan, we pressed for reinforcements day after day but failed. We have deep grudges. Now that my king sends troops, they will be cannon fodder. How should we arrange it?" Ananda asked.

"Your Majesty, if you choose [-] disciples to form an army, and then send your confidant generals to command, as long as you control the key points, let the Song army enter the city when the battle is fierce, and you will be doomed!" Tuo Tiemu said.

"I just need to contact Zhang Shijie to avoid accidentally injuring our army." Tie Chi said.When Zhang Shijie received Ananda's emissary, he felt very surprised.

"But I didn't expect that people can be so crazy under ambition." Zhang Shijie sighed and happily received the emissary.

No matter whether Ananda is crazy about his faith or blinded by ambition, as long as he can win Jinan, he is a good Ananda. …

But I have to say that these religious people have a lot of experience in fighting for power, and military arrangements are bullshit.

The Song army had already occupied half of Jinan, and it was just going back and forth with the Yuan army. There was no problem of difficulty in entering the city.

"If Jinan is defeated, there are two key points: one is the granary and the other is the gunpowder depot. If these two places are destroyed, the Yuan army will retreat."

The emissary went back and relayed Zhang Shijie's words, and Ananda was in a dilemma.

Ganmala didn't want to see him, so how could he be allowed to guard these two key points with the army?

However, you have to give it a try, what if it works?There are only three thousand troops on the left and right. If he has 20 troops in the northwest, he can afford a complete loss of 3000 troops.

Although Ananda did not understand the fighting situation in Jinan, he underestimated Ganmala's determination to defend the city.

In order to win Ananda's trust and obtain more reinforcements, Ganmala did not use Ananda's troops as cannon fodder, but replaced the elites guarding key areas in the rear.

I really don’t blame Gan Mala, it’s really the Song army’s attack that was too fierce, and the Yuan army suffered heavy losses.

After the war to this day, more than half of the [-] defenders, including subsequent reinforcements, had suffered casualties. It was really time to run out of fuel. At this time, Ananda, a bystander, had an army of [-] that was crucial.

Zhang Shijie was not having a good time either. His subordinates suffered [-] casualties in battle. If Ananda really came to fight for his life, he would have to stay out of harm's way.

So, on the third day of September, a fire suddenly broke out in the granary of the Jinan defenders, and then the gunpowder depot exploded.

"No, Ananda has rebelled!" Ganmala was shocked.

"Your Majesty, you can't do anything. Leave quickly. I'll come and stop you!" Zhang Hong said.

Gan Mala did not want to give up on Zhang Hong and said: "Jinan cannot be defended. The Duke of Ji should gather his troops and retreat for the future."

"Your Majesty, please stop talking and leave quickly." Zhang Hong ordered his personal guards on his left and right to escort Gan Mala away, and he gathered an army to stop the Song army.

However, the Yuan army was frightened and all the generals were busy fleeing. He only gathered more than a thousand pro-combatants. Even so, Zhang Hong managed to resist for a while, buying time for Ganmala and others to evacuate.

Let's talk about Zhu Du and Shi Mobulao catching Gan Mala, leading five thousand remaining soldiers out of the city, and rushed all the way to Gaotang. However, just beside the ancient Yellow River road, the Song army ambushed and broke out, and the Yuan army was defeated.

In order to protect Gan Mala, Shi Mobulao was killed on the spot, and the capital only sent more than a hundred soldiers to protect Gan Mala and leave.

Everyone knew that Zhen Jin was about to succeed to the throne, and it would be a death penalty to give away his son.

Just as they were about to reach Gaotang, another group of soldiers came out of ambush. They didn't say a word and just kept fighting.

This was an ambush arranged by Ananda in order to avoid future trouble.

In fact, Ananda ambushed the army not only in Gaotang, but also on all possible roads.

There were many people and they were willful, and Ananda was sure that the Song army might let Gan Mala leave, but they would not let too many Yuan troops leave.

As long as Gan Mala and Zuo Du were left behind, and the Song army released some prisoners afterwards, it was all a plan to alienate them.

As a result, Jinan, which the Song Army had fought hard for half a year, succeeded in such a bizarre way.
