Chapter 307: Uncomfortable

Jiang Yuetang hurriedly wiped away her tears and said, "Hmm." There were three reasons for the defeat of the Song army: first, there were spies within the army; second, the general LΓΌ Wende forgot his righteousness for profit, so that the Yuan army could take advantage of it; and third, the leaders of the Song Dynasty did not attach importance to this battle. ”

Shangguan Che nodded and sighed: "Therefore, to win a battle, you need to have a strategy, a united heart, sufficient materials, a general integrity, and a leader who pays enough attention to it. ”

Jiang Yuetang nodded, and asked again: "Teacher, why did the Song army be wiped out in the Battle of Yashan?"

She paid special attention to all the cases of defeat, and she knew that they were a wake-up call left by history to future generations, and they were worthy of warning.

Shangguan Che let out a long sigh and said: "After capturing Xiangyang City, Zhang Hongfan, the general of the Yuan army, led an army of 300,000 to Yashan and prepared to besiege the Southern Song Dynasty on three sides. Faced with this situation, Zhang Shijie, the general of the Song army, immediately threw himself into battle. At this time, it was suggested that Zhang Shijie should first hold the exit of the bay to protect the retreat route to the west, but Zhang Shijie was worried that the soldiers would flee, so he rejected the suggestion.

At this time, there seemed to be more than 200,000 people on the Song army's side, but tens of thousands of them were civil officials, eunuchs, palace maids and people who had no combat ability, so there were only more than 100,000 people who really had combat ability.

Zhang Shijie ordered people to destroy all the houses, palaces and other buildings on the land, locked more than 2,000 warships in the bay, and placed the 8-year-old Song Emperor Zhao Yu on one of the warships.

When the Yuan army arrived, they rushed to the Song army's ship formation in small boats carrying flammable materials such as thatch and ointment, and the Song army painted mud on the boats and placed a long wooden stick on each boat to resist the Yuan army's fire attack. Seeing that the fire could not be attacked, the Yuan army asked the sailors to block the bay, and the army cut off the Song army's way to collect firewood and water.

The Song army had to eat dry food and drink seawater, more than ten days later, the Song army vomited and vomited, Zhang Shijie led the army to fight with the Yuan army, the Yuan army captured Zhang Shijie's nephew, forced Zhang Shijie to surrender, Zhang Shijie refused.

The general of the Yuan army, Zhang Hongfan, was furious and prepared to storm the attack, and his men suggested using artillery to disrupt the Song army's one-line ship formation. Zhang Hongfan adopted this suggestion.

The next day, Zhang Hongfan's troops were divided into three routes, respectively guarding the east, south and north of the Song army, one of which attacked the north of the Song army first, but was unsuccessful, so he retreated. Seeing this, Song Jun relaxed his vigilance.

At noon, Zhang Hongfan's sailors suddenly attacked head-on and covered the ambush soldiers with cloth. These ambushers prostrated themselves with shields and approached the Song ship in a rain of arrows. Although the Song army tried its best to resist, it was ultimately unable to do so, and soon lost its ability to resist. The Yuan army took advantage of the victory and attacked the center of the Song army.

Zhang Shijie saw that the general trend had gone, and hurriedly fled by boat.

At this time, Emperor Zhao Yu of the Song Dynasty was still in a certain boat besieged by the Yuan army, and Lu Xiufu, who was guarding him, saw that there was no hope of breaking through, so he carried him to the sea. Seeing this, the soldiers and civilians accompanying them also threw themselves into the sea one after another, with a total of more than 100,000 people.

After Zhang Shijie escaped, he immediately went to the Empress Dowager Yang, hoping that she would help find a way to deal with the Yuan army, but the Empress Dowager Yang also committed suicide by throwing herself into the sea after learning of the death of the Song Emperor Zhao Yu, and Zhang Shijie buried him by the sea.

At this point, the Great Song Dynasty completely collapsed. ”

Jiang Yuetang covered her mouth and cried bitterly.

Shangguan Che patted her on the back and said, "It's tragic, isn't it? That's history." ”

After crying for a while, Jiang Yuetang asked unrelentingly: "That little emperor, is he really dead?"

"Dead, it is said that the day after the war, there were 100,000 corpses floating on the sea, and people found Lu Xiufu's body and buried it, while the body of the little emperor drifted into the area of the Yuan army. It is said that the Yuan army saw a child wearing a dragon robe, wearing a crown, and a jade seal hanging around his neck floating on the water, and saw that his eyebrows were clear and beautiful, and the momentum between his eyebrows was somewhat different from that of ordinary children, so he hurriedly took off the jade seal and handed it to Zhang Hongfan for identification, Zhang Hongfan determined that this jade seal was real, and hurriedly sent someone to retrieve the body, but the body could not be found. ”

Jiang Yuetang thought that the little emperor was her age when he died, and immediately threw herself into Shangguan Che's arms and cried bitterly.

Shangguan Che sighed again, patted her on the back and said softly, "Don't be too sad, it was a long time ago. ”

But she was still very sad.

Shangguan Che knew that it was not appropriate to continue lecturing on this day, so he told her a joke.

At first, Jiang Yuetang didn't laugh, she was still immersed in incomparable sadness, but later Shangguan Che kept making her laugh, and she finally laughed.

Shangguan Che personally wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and when she wiped it, she saw that her eyes were red, and her heart was suddenly touched.

He hurriedly looked away, subconsciously stepped back a few points, and said, "Okay, it's getting late, let's talk about it tonight." ”

"Uh-huh, I'll send you. The little guy said hurriedly, and the man was already on his feet.

Shangguan Che looked at the little her, and was reluctant for a while, so he leaned over and picked her up, hugged her tightly in his arms, and said with emotion: "If only I could have a child like you." ”

The little guy looked at him fixedly, and said very seriously: "Then I think you are a godfather, okay?"

This is not the first time she has made this request.

Shangguan Che shook his head with a smile and said, "Not good." ”

"Why not?" asked the little one, teasing his headband.

He pressed his face to her little face and whispered, "I don't know." ”

"The teacher fooled me. She pursed her lips in dissatisfaction.

So cute, so delicate, he suddenly remembered that little emperor came, he was busy in his heart 'bah', smiled at her and said, "The teacher didn't fool you, the teacher really doesn't know." He thought for a moment and said, "If you have to find a reason." The teacher thinks that your godfather is too young, so he is unwilling. ”

Jiang Yuetang was stunned.

He is seventeen years older than her, and he can be a father at this age difference.

But she still smiled tolerantly and said, "The teacher has a young mentality, which is good." ”

Shangguan Che carried her to the door.

After getting into the carriage, Shangguan Che unconsciously opened the curtain to look at her, and did not lower the curtain until her small figure completely disappeared at the gate, and exhaled deeply.

He found that he liked the baby more and more.

This heart-wrenching sweetness makes him sometimes overwhelmed.

After entering the room, Jiang Yuetang threw herself into the quilt and cried again. She didn't know why she was crying, was it for the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty, or for the brave and unyielding soldiers and civilians, or for the emperor who died at a young age?

Through Shangguan Che's lecture today, she understands that no matter how powerful a dynasty is, it will have a day of decline, and if you don't pay attention to solving internal contradictions, don't pay attention to enhancing strength, and don't pay attention to preventing external aggression, the speed of dynasty change can be very fast.
