Chapter 181: General Zhao

Not to mention Zhou Chang'an's various things, Meng Ge and their trip came to transport grenades. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The closer you get to the tower, the louder the fight becomes. Even if he had already made preparations, he had seen the scene of Qin Yi's siege at the beginning.

However, when it comes to fighting against foreign enemies, all this is very different.

The struggle between the same clan is for that position, but also for the seizure of resources.

However, foreign invasions were only for the purpose of gaining territory. This includes resources as well as people, especially wealth.

The temptation on these bases makes the foreign invaders particularly strong. In order to swallow the vast and rich territory of the Great Song Dynasty, they planned to fight to the death with the Zhao family's army.

Even if they had dragged on with the old Ministry of the Great Song Dynasty in Northern Xinjiang for several years, they never felt that there was a moment when they had to do their best as they did now.

You must know that the last barrier they bent down to the south was the one that the Zhao family army was guarding was closed.

If they do not go south from here, but take a detour to the east or west, it will cause a lot of military losses and time consumption.

It is best to detour from the east as that side is close to the sea. However, these Yuan troops are all Song people who are fierce on horseback, but they must not be soft-footed shrimp on the water.

It is precisely because of this that they insist on attacking from the pyloric pass.

Of course, it is not impossible to go from the west, but it will take more than half a year, and you have to borrow from Da Liao, which is not a small trouble.

In particular, these hundreds of thousands of grains and grass for half a year are not something that can be gathered in a moment.

What's more, the people of Dayuan are really not very good in terms of planting. If it weren't for the fact that they had conquered part of the territory of the Great Song Dynasty before and enslaved those Great Song people to grow grain, I am afraid that they would not be able to make up the grain and grass they invaded south this time.

Anxious for the above reasons, the Yuan army will look at this pyloric pass in particular, and swear to capture it to the death.

Even if there is still the old department of the former Great Song Dynasty in the north, as long as this checkpoint is occupied, then their Yuan army will be able to drive straight into the Central Plains in the future, and will not be hindered by the Great Song army at all.

It's not unhindered at all, it's just a little easier than before.

Looking at the Yuan army outside the Guan, which was becoming more and more courageous, General Zhao's face was extremely heavy. The Great Song Dynasty collapsed. Today's Great Song Dynasty is an ownerless territory.

As long as someone takes the lead and stabilizes the situation first, there is no doubt that he is the leader of this territory.

And he, just a general of the first army, has never thought about that position. His only wish is to keep the country that his ancestors are dedicated to protecting.

However, even such a small wish has now been impacted.

If the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty was not so afraid of death, held his position, and bravely accepted the provocation of the Yuan army, then the Great Song Dynasty might not have faced the current situation.

Even if they are affected by disasters everywhere and the people are struggling to make a living, they only need to defend the country and give the people a stable situation, so that they can ease their strength, and the Great Song Dynasty can still recover its original vitality.

It's a pity that he, a general who is loyal to the monarch and protects the country, was born at the wrong time, and he actually set up such a court and met such a wasted emperor who was greedy for life and afraid of death.

Now, apart from him and some loyal old ministers, no one plans to overturn this Great Song Dynasty and replace it.

Not long ago, the boss of the Wang family, Wang Dajunshi, mentioned it to him openly and secretly, and asked him to consider it in that regard.

It's just that he can make up his mind at the moment. Being a courtier and being a ruler are two different concepts.

He still can't make up his mind. However, he adhered to his consistent belief and would never allow the Yuan army to enter the customs.

Even if he stopped his body under the enemy's iron cavalry, he would not allow the Yuan army to enter the pass in front of his eyes.

Although there are only 30,000 Yuan troops in this wave, it is not difficult to see that they are all elite.

Coupled with Qin Yi's people, they have been holding on to the gate for half a month this time.

Of course, their losses were not huge. It was Qin Yi's people who really lost their troops.

Looking at Qin Yi's soldiers, who were also the people of the Great Song Dynasty, whether they were forced or voluntarily embarked on this path, General Zhao felt pity.

It's a pity. If these people have the same purpose as him, then why should they have such a hard time resisting the invasion of foreign enemies.

Fortunately, Wang Ran's embattled strategy had begun to bear fruit, and the remaining 100,000 troops on Qin Yi's side had stopped a lot.

Depending on the situation, I'm afraid that they have already had internal contradictions.

However, according to General Zhao's understanding of Qin Yi, he is such a brutal and authoritarian person, and he will not allow those people to commit crimes and not obey the command.

I'm afraid, I'm afraid that those people will finally compromise with Qin Yi's brutal methods. It is said that Qin Yi killed many disobedient subordinates this time.

However, where there is oppression, there is resistance. Just like the rebel army of the Great Song Dynasty, those people are actually ordinary people who have been suppressed by the rotten Great Song Dynasty.

Presumably, the rebellion of Qin Yi's subordinates should be inevitable. It depends on Qin Yi's methods, how long he can suppress those people.

Besides, as the people of the Great Song Dynasty, those soldiers didn't like foreign tribes to rule them. How to say, the slavery of the Yuan people to give away people was widely spread in the Great Song Dynasty.

Just when General Zhao was thinking wildly, someone came to report that someone from the camp outside the city had arrived.

General Zhao came back to his senses from his chaotic thoughts, and took Yang Tie and another lieutenant general down the city tower together.

He didn't know why Deputy Guan would send the people who came to deliver grain and grass here, so he planned to go and find out the situation himself.

After going down the city tower, General Zhao and the others saw Meng Ge and Deputy Commander Tian who were leading the horses, as well as the three carriages behind them that seemed to be bearing a lot of weight.

"I've seen the general, Vice General Liu, and General Yang. When Deputy Commander Tian saw the visitor, he immediately stood up straight and saluted the military seniors.

Meng Ge followed closely and also saluted straightly.

General Zhao looked at the carriages suspiciously, and couldn't help but have some suspicions in his heart.

Seeing General Zhao staring at the carriage, Deputy Commander Tian explained: "General, this is the black iron egg that Vice General Guan asked us to send to the front line. This was originally just in case, but Wang Gongzi prepared it for his subordinates to use on the road, but he didn't run out. ”

When it comes to black iron eggs, General Zhao immediately knows what it is. I heard that it was not finished, so I casually asked about the itinerary along the way.

Deputy Commander Tian talked about it once, and then focused on the loss of the grenade for no reason, and mentioned in detail the things before they came.

After hearing this, General Zhao pondered for a moment, and then asked Deputy Commander Tian and Meng Ge to hand over to the military barracks.

Meng Ge was a foil the whole time, like a little transparent.
