Chapter 1 Tide I

Tide (1)

The wind suddenly rose, blowing the white sails on the Min River.

On the beach, the second standard led Du Hu against the wind. , the scar on his face that had just healed was bloody, and it jumped up and down with his breathing, looking indescribably hideous.

Looking at his face, Du Hu obviously had just quarreled with someone, and his anger had not subsided. The guards did not dare to offend him at this time, and could not be assured of his safety, so they had to stay far behind him.

"Hey!" Du Hu picked up a flat stone and threw it diagonally towards the river. The stones made a splash on the crest of the wave, jumping, and plunged into the arms of a huge wave. The "enraged" tide roared to the shore, rolling up a thousand piles of snow.

"Boom, boom", the river tide slapped against the rocks, as if thousands of troops were impacting.

Du Hu was very angry, for Chen Longfu's stubbornness, and for Wen Tianxiang's confusion.

After the recovery of Fuzhou, how to deal with the dynasty floating on the sea has become an urgent issue. In yesterday's meeting, despite Du Hu's insistence, he still failed to prevent a very wrong decision.

Xingchao has been drifting on the sea for a long time, and must be ashore as soon as possible to repair. And Fuzhou, which is near the sea, is undoubtedly a good place for the emperor to stay. The generals represented by Zou Xun, the old Confucian Chen Longfu, the commander of the third standard, Lin Qi, and the new commander of the second standard, Xiao Mingzhe, held this opinion, and they hoped that Wen Tianxiang would send people to the sea to contact the emperor as soon as possible, so that the long-adrift Xing Dynasty would come to Fuzhou and use Fuzhou as a base to recover all the mountains and rivers of the Great Song Dynasty.

If the name is not right, it is not good. Let the emperor be stationed in Fuzhou, and all reform orders will be issued by the emperor's orders, and the pressure on the prime minister's office will be much less.

Although this is done, it has the meaning of coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes. But the loyalty of everyone can be seen by the sun and the moon.

Zhang Tang, commander of the first standard, Du Hu, Si Nongqing, Li Xing, commander of the fourth standard, Tao Laomo, commander of the eighth standard, and Wu Xizao, the commander of the artillery battalion, opposed this suggestion, believing that Fuzhou's location was not suitable for defense. If Zhang Shijie brings the Xing Dynasty here, it won't be long before all the strength of Da Yuan will pounce here. Under the attack from all sides, this newly recovered land will not last long. And now, taking advantage of the fact that the rear of the Yuan army was disturbed by the rebel forces in various places, the imperial court, which had an army of nearly 200,000 troops, should lay down a base area by itself, instead of relying on the help of the rebel armies in the east and the west.

Moreover, Fuzhou, Jianning, and Shaowu were not grain-producing areas, and when such a large imperial court moved over, the food problem alone was enough to crush all the achievements of the Broken Army.

Wen Tianxiang carefully weighed and adopted the suggestions of Chen Longfu and others. Now, the vertical arch hall in the city, the Yanhe Hall has been renovated again, waiting for the arrival of the holy driver. At that time, all government decrees will come from the imperial court, and they will only take effect after discussion by Chen Yizhong, Zhang Shijie and others.

This is not a good choice from an efficiency point of view, or from a other point of view. The high-ranking officials in the imperial court who only had one seal left would not approve of Wen Tianxiang's current approach. Measured by the number of people alone, their opinions will become the mainstream of the court's discussions. At that time, Wen Tianxiang will face the fate of being set aside, and all the efforts of the Broken Army in the past half a year will become the wedding dress of others.

Du Hu was unwilling to do so. He still clearly remembered that it was because of Chen Yizhong and Zhang Shijie's difficulties that Wen Tianxiang was forced to stay away from the court and open the mansion alone.

During the bloody battle on the Jiangnan West Road, the rebels from all walks of life did not receive any assistance from the imperial court. Even when people from all walks of life were attacked and defeated one after another, the will from the imperial court still demanded that they should not move closer to the imperial court, and that they should fight separately and play the role of a "surprise soldier".

When the strength of the frontal court is not enough to hold on to the enemy, Du Hu does not need to recall the fate of the "strange soldier". The faces of the brothers who died in the Battle of Gannan appeared in his dreams almost every night.

God knows what the Prime Minister thinks, heal the scars, and forget the pain. Du Hu snorted angrily and threw stones into the river, venting his dissatisfaction in his heart. Among the generals, he has followed Wen Tianxiang for the longest time, so he has the highest expectations for Wen Tianxiang. With the current situation, the correct choice of the captive army is definitely not to welcome the emperor's return and occupy the commanding heights of righteousness. Instead, it is to trim the soldiers and horses, accumulate strength, and digest the results of the Shaowu defense battle.

Although the targets in front of them are full of personnel, there is also a teaching team composed of veterans of the Broken Army to assist in training. But those who have led the troops should know that the current army of broken captives, which has swelled to nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses, may not be as strong as the team before the battle with Page. Those veterans who came down from Baizhang Ridge are far from being comparable to the current newly recruited homeless people and newly attached soldiers in terms of morale, combat skills, and combat experience against the enemy.

It is almost impossible to beat these recruits into veterans like those on Baizhang Ridge in half a year. And once the Xing Dynasty drifts to Fuzhou, Beiyuan will definitely not leave everyone half a year. Under the continuous blows of the Yuan army, the broken army was exhausted, and the Xing Dynasty continued to enter the sea, which is a predictable outcome.

"Guiqing is so Yaxing, it seems that his arm is recovering well!" A familiar voice came from behind Du Hu, interrupting his train of thought.

Du Hu turned around with a little resentment, and saw Wen Tianxiang slowly picking up a piece of stone, and making a few splashes on the crest of the wave in his own way.

"The last general can't guess this raging evening tide, of course he has to linger on the shore!" Du Hu shrugged his shoulders coldly, and the smell of gunpowder in his tone was very obvious.

"Then why don't you learn from them to stand on the tide and see clearly!" Wen Tianxiang smiled and pointed to the tide boat in the river, a newly recruited sailor soldier, under the guidance of Chen Fusong, learning how to maintain the shape of the battle fleet in the stormy seas.

"I'm just afraid of him, I'm sick late" Du Hu softly chanted half an old word, a pun.

"Why do you want to learn to complain about women, do you know that people have good and bad luck, and there are unforeseen circumstances!" Wen Tianxiang walked a few steps briskly and walked side by side with Du Hu, with a smile of a little profundity and expectation. He knew what Du Hu was talking about, but today's Wen Tianxiang is no longer the Wen Tianxiang of the past.

At that time, Wen Tianxiang, under the power of Chen Yi and others, had to stay away. Today, however, he is confident that he will be able to preserve his victory.

"Is there an unforeseen situation?" Du Hu asked in confusion, looking at Wen Tianxiang's strange smile, a bright light seemed to suddenly surge in his heart.

Since Baizhangling broke off his ambition, what the prime minister has done has been full of profundity. Could it be that there is some mystery hidden in his actions this time?

Thinking about Wen Tianxiang's unbelievable actions, Du Hu felt more and more that his speculation was reasonable. Before Baizhangling fell into a coma, Prime Minister Wen Cheng, whenever he mentioned the emperor, he often cried endlessly, and his lonely loyalty made people sigh. And now, when I talk about the court and the emperor, it's more like mentioning my friends and partners.

This kind of unconscious change in language and status, perhaps Wen Tianxiang himself has not noticed. But someone noticed it and talked about it privately. It is said that Prime Minister Wen acted in a rebellious manner, and the decree not only violated the ancestral system, but also faintly raised the Prime Minister's Mansion to a status comparable to that of the dynasty.

"There are unforeseen circumstances, we sincerely invite each other, but Prime Minister Chen Cheng and General Zhang may not be willing to come! Therefore, Guiqing's dispute with General Zou today is not only unreasonable, but also unwise! Wen Tianxiang's tone changed, pointing out what Du Hu was most worried about, and at the same time criticized his behavior.

In the study, he heard that Du Hu and Zou Wei had another dispute, Wen Tianxiang put down the affairs in his hand and hurried to appease him. When I got to Zou Xun, the parties had already dispersed. Based on the information provided by the soldiers, he hurried to the river.

"Does the prime minister think that General Zhang can carve out a piece of the world by himself?" Du Hu asked in a low voice, with a bit of unconvincing Wen Tianxiang in his tone, "General Zou, as the deputy commander of the First Army, does not seek the survival of the First Army, but is busy showing loyalty to the imperial court. Are the fallen of my brethren on the Mount of Thorns for someone's sake of loyalty? ”

"I said earlier that since the day of our Baizhangling, we are no longer fighting for one family and one surname. But we had to do it to meet the stationing of the court! ”

Wen Tianxiang looked at Du Hu, his expression gradually solemn. With the increase of personal experience and his own influence, the way of thinking of people like Zhang Tang and Du Hu in the army has gradually broken away from the original scope of the world. This is something that can be celebrated, and the awakening of the whole army and the whole nation is not an overnight thing.

For this reason, those who awaken first will inevitably feel pain, loneliness and confusion. That feeling is just like when I was on Baizhang Ridge, hovering between Wen Tianxiang and Wen Zhong's thoughts.

But this kind of metamorphosis in thinking must be experienced, without this, it is not enough to compete with the theorists who have already lowered the great yuan. The greater the military-political pressure, the greater the losses.

Now, what he needs is time for these awakened to slowly move from pain to maturity.

Yesterday, the people who proposed to invite the court to come and stay in the court may not all be absolutely loyal to the court. Those who oppose the invitation to the DPRK are not necessarily hardcore supporters of the current policy.

There are too many mysteries and interests in politics. Every time he chooses, even Wen Tianxiang himself decides to be very difficult.

If he is still the same Wen Tianxiang, it is an inevitable choice to let the court come and protect the court by wronging the army, although this choice will make him miserable.

If Wenzhong is fully accepted, then it is the wisest way to refuse the officials of the imperial court to pick peaches, and even force the imperial court to work hard against the Yuan. It is beneficial to the country and to oneself.

It's a pity that he is neither Wen Zhong nor the original Wen Tianxiang now
