Chapter 40: The Battle of Quanzhou

Zhang Hongfan adjusted his mood and said with a straight face to the north: "Although a certain is newly defeated, there is still the trust of His Majesty, there is also a handsome seal, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses on land, and countless money and food, I don't know if Master Pu can see it."

There is a slight hint of threat in these words, don't look at me in a defeated battle, I am still a generalissimo, there are still many trump cards in my hand, the sailors are all lost, but the infantry cavalry on land is unharmed, I can't clean up the Southern Song Dynasty sailors, and I can't cure your Quanzhou City and Pujia!

Pu Shougeng smiled faintly: "I don't like what Marshal Zhang has." ”

Zhang Hongfan was angry, lowered his voice and said, "Then what do you want, could it be that Zhang's head is not successful?" ”

Of course, he understands that Pu Shougeng does not dare to kill himself, but this old dog is likely to put forward some non-dividing requirements, such as asking for the ruling power of the entire Fujian Province, forming a de facto ripping of the soil and sealing the king, or asking for no tax for hundreds of years, these are not things that Zhang Hongfan can do, even if Boyan comes, he has to think about it, if this old dog does not open his eyes and really proposes this, then he will scatter in two, raise his troops to fight Quanzhou, and rob the sea ship and then go to the decisive battle with the Song army.

Pu Shougeng stared at Zhang Hongfan's eyes and said, "Of course not, I want the marshal to convert to Allah." ”

Zhang Hongfan was stunned, he is a native of Hebei, born in a family of military generals, naturally he will not believe in Buddhism, and he does not know much about Taoism, it can be said that in addition to power and knife handles, he does not have any faith, Pu Shougeng is a vassal guest back, he believes in Tianfangjiao, the emperor of the Great Yuan Dynasty has a vague attitude towards religion, and he does not refuse to come with the spirit of embracing all rivers, whether it is the local Taoism or the Buddhism from Tianzhu, or the Tianfang Religion in the Western Regions, and the Jingjiao in the extreme west, you can preach in Dadu, but it is conceivable, If the generalissimo of the Han army converted to the Heavenly Sect, it would inevitably affect a group of people, and even the emperor was unknown.

Zhang Hongfan immediately understood that Pu Shougeng's ambition was even greater than he imagined, he wanted to turn the whole country into the territory of the Tianfang Sect, but that was not his concern, he just entered the sect, and he couldn't drop a piece of meat, this business can be done.

"Make a deal, but take refuge after victory." Zhang Hongfan stretched out a hand.

"Deal!" Pu Shougeng high-fived him as an alliance.

After reaching an agreement, Pu Shou Geng ordered people to offer gifts, Quanzhou is the largest port in the East, the annual trade is not more than hundreds of millions, the Pu family is in charge of the city for two generations, their own family is also doing big business, the wealth of the family can rival the country, there are 300 acres of mansions alone, pavilions, garden rockeries, more magnificent than the imperial city of the capital, Pu Shou Geng's gifts are very rich, very good, coral trees, huge pearl strings, Khotanese jade, and boxes of gold coins, the currency of the Song Dynasty is mainly square hole copper coins, and there are no gold coins, These beautiful gold coins with the portraits of the people are all from overseas.

"Master Pu is polite." Zhang Hongfan just gave it up slightly and took it all according to the order, he was not greedy for money, but it cost money to rebuild the water division, Pu Shougeng's money was not clean anyway, and he was not weak in taking as much as he wanted.

After receiving a big gift, the relationship between the guest and the host was much more harmonious, Pu Shougeng accompanied Zhang Hongfan to walk and chat in the Pujia garden, and when talking about how many soldiers there were in Quanzhou, Pu Shougeng shook his head and said: "Less than 10,000." ”

Zhang Hongfan was shocked: "Why is it so at least?" ”

Pu Shougeng patiently explained that Fujian was originally a land of smoke miasma, and the population was not as large as the Central Plains, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang, and the wars were frequent in recent years, and the Song army and the Yuan army were back and forth, and they also killed many people around Quanzhou in order to eliminate the traitors.

These are the facts, Pu Shou Geng in order to prevent future troubles, the Han people loyal to the Song family inside and outside Quanzhou City were killed, and even from Persia, the Hui of different sects also killed a seven, seven, eighty, eight, he was originally from the Sunni of the Great Food, and the Shiites from Persia are feuds, usually not good to use knives and guns, this time by quelling the chaos came a mass extinction, the former prosperous and rich Quanzhou City, the heads of the people killed by the Pu family rolled, and the houses of the people who were killed became the private property of the Pu family, and the Great Yuan Dynasty only cared about the port and trade taxes, I don't care how many people die, now that retribution is coming, I can't even recruit soldiers.

"How many ships and how many sailors can you get together?" Zhang Hongfan asked again.

Pu Shougeng said that although Quanzhou is a big port, but not every day there are ships entering the port, the ships are following the monsoon and ocean currents, every summer is the busiest time for foreign ships to enter the port, winter is the time to release ships to the sea, Quanzhou City Bo Division originally had tens of thousands of ships, but was robbed by the Song army, last month there were a large number of goods to go to sea, the Pu family originally owned 200 ships, has been donated to the imperial navy, the day before yesterday all sunk in the cliff mountain, now still want to piece together the sailors, it is even more difficult, even if all the ships in the port are forcibly requisitioned, but only more than 100 ships.

This is also the truth, these years the sea trade is full of dangers, pirates emerge in an endless stream, the sailors on the sea ships have rich combat experience, change clothes are sailors, the Pu family did donate 200 ships and more than 10,000 people, this is not Zhang Hongfan, the loser smashed in Yashan.

Zhang Hongfan was very depressed, he couldn't say anything with his hands behind his back, Pu Shougeng comforted him and said that this matter was not urgent, as long as a few months later, thousands of sea ships arrived in Quanzhou with the summer trade wind, and when the time came, there would be ships and ships, people and military salaries, and a naval division would be pulled up almost overnight.

"Then there's Lord Laopu." Zhang Hongfan bowed deeply, he knew that these affairs could not be done without the support of the Pu family, if the relationship was not handled well, the Pu family would use some means, and he would never recover.

"The lower official has carried the vegetables, please appreciate the marshal." Pu Shougeng led the way in front, led Zhang Hongfan to a water pavilion, and put the dishes on the table, but there was no wine, Zhang Hongfan suddenly realized that Pu Shougeng was back, the canon can't drink, the guest is as he pleases, then don't drink.

While eating, someone came to report that a fleet under the banner of the Yuan Army had come to Quanzhou Port and asked to enter the city.

"It must have been Song Jun pretending." Zhang Hongfan said angrily, "I'm an idiot when I'm waiting." ”

Pu Shougeng sneered: "The marshal comes with me, see how I plan and kill Song Gou." ”

The Pu family led the war horse, the seventy-year-old man of Pu Shougeng was vigorous, turned over the horse, and Zhang Hongfan went to the city to command the battle, the Pu family also rode a horse to follow, as far as the eye could see, it was full of people with high nose bridges and concave eye sockets, the Pu family thrived in Quanzhou, but did not intermarry with the Han people, and maintained the purity of the bloodline for hundreds of years.

A group of people climbed the head of Quanzhou City, looked at the past from the East Gate Tower, there were 300 warships outside the port, and saw that the flag was indeed the Yuan Army, and there was even a Zhangziya flag, the Song Army was really bold, pretending to be Zhang Hongfan.

"Let them into town." Pu Shougeng said, "Let's close the door and beat the dog." ”

Three years ago, the Southern Song Dynasty exile court fleet came to Quanzhou Port, asked to enter the city to rest, replenish the grain, at that time Pu Shougeng had secretly surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty, he pretended to agree, asked the emperor to drive into the city, planning to come to an urn to catch turtles, how do you know that the trick was detected by Zhang Shijie, the two sides clashed, Zhang Shijie snatched Pu Shou Geng hundreds of ships, wrapped thousands of sailors, and Pu Shou Geng killed the Song Dynasty clan and officials and soldiers in the city, the next year, Zhang Shijie besieged Quanzhou again, and attacked for three months, Despite the support of the people of Quanzhou and the support of the scholars, they still failed to take Quanzhou City.

At this time, Zhang Shijie was also looking at Quanzhou from the bow of the ship, and he and Pu Shougeng had a general account to calculate.

The strategy was successful, the east gate of Quanzhou was opened, to welcome the Wang Division, Zhang Shijie sent the forward to land and enter the city, the army of 3,000 people were all wearing the armor of the Yuan army, under the banner of the Yuan army, landed one after another, the whole team, and drove into the city.

"Pu Shougeng, I want to cut off your head with my own hands." Seeing that it was done, Zhang Shijie hated and hated, and suddenly three cannons rang out in the distance, and the jack gate on the gate of Quanzhou fell, crushing several unlucky eggs into meat cakes on the spot, and countless archers appeared on the houses on both sides of the street in the city, and soldiers with various flags and helmets and armor suddenly appeared on the city.

"Oh no, I've been tricked!" Zhang Shijie was annoyed and angry, and ordered a strong attack.

The troops who entered the city first were wrapped in dumplings, and almost all of them were shot in the streets without resisting, and the soldiers and horses outside the city did not prepare ladders, and could only be beaten passively, and they had to retreat if they failed to attack, but they also lost more than 1,000 people.

Zhang Hongfan stroked his beard and laughed, the shame of Yashan was finally repaid a little bit.

The strategy was revealed, the outwitting turned into a strong attack, the sailors were not good at attacking the city, and they lacked tools such as ladders and building cars, so they had to constantly bombard the city wall with return cannons, cover the shooting with bows and arrows, and fought like this for three days, regardless of victory or defeat.

On the fourth day, Liu Yanzhi led a hundred warships to support, the fleet sailed to the sea off Quanzhou, and saw a male city from afar, the scale is so large, it is breathtaking, Liu Yanzhi is also considered to be well-informed, the Jingshi of the Qing Dynasty, the Chang'an of the Han Dynasty, and the Bian Liang of the Northern Song Dynasty, this is a first-class big city, but Quanzhou is not the national capital, even the capital of Fujian Province is not counted, but compared with Chang'an, it is not much better, the city wall is thick, the buildings outside the city are lined up one after another, the port is even grander, the annual trade season, from the big food, Persia, Japan, Goryeo ships came here from thousands of miles, sent all kinds of imported goods, bought Chinese porcelain, silk, spices with real money, hundreds of years of maritime trade, to the Song Dynasty brought foreign civilization, but also brought rich income, fattened the Pu family this white-eyed wolf.

"The glorious history of Quanzhou has come to an end, and Pu Shougeng's life has come to an end." Liu Yanzhi stood at the bow of the boat and said softly.

"Taishi, please let Pu Shougeng kill me." Liu Handong asked for battle.

"Do you have the technology?" Liu Yan asked rhetorically, "The person who conspired against him was to be executed by Ling Chi, if you can cut him 3,600 knives, and make him angry, I will let you kill him." ”

Liu Handong spread his hands: "It's too difficult, I will only chop my head with a knife." ”
