Option four

The 4,000 broken army had not yet forced into the city wall, the 20,000 defenders had already fled through the back door, and Huang Quji, the capital of the Shaowu army, fled dozens of miles with the rout, still not understanding how he was defeated.

"Big, big, big brother, let's, where are we going", Huang Tianhua hit the horse and followed, his face was gray and white, and he couldn't tell the difference between sweat and mud, "You, you have an idea, brothers, brothers can't run."

"Idea"? Huang Qu quickly looked around, only to see more than 10,000 defeated soldiers behind him with crooked helmets, one by one empty-handed, looking at him with blank eyes.

There were so many soldiers in Pontus, Huang Quji couldn't believe his eyes. He suddenly realized that he had lost a little unjustly in today's battle. Even if the madman brought down all the soldiers and horses on Baizhang Ridge, he would not be able to make up the number of 6,000, and Shao Wu's army of more than 20,000 people, why didn't he think of going out of the city to meet the enemy. If you attack before the other side puts up those fire-breathing iron guys on the dirt mountain...... Huang Quji kept complaining that he was timid.

Pulling the horse and inspecting the soldiers, the puppet governor of the Shaowu army regretted it more and more. What the hell is going on today, no matter how powerful those flowering iron projectiles are, they hit the city, and their power is only a few feet away. Hit outside the city wall, but blew up a big pit. The high walls of Shao Wujun's city are thick, and at today's speed, those iron projectiles may not be able to explode for three days and three nights. But why did his first thought be to escape, thinking about the fragmented subordinates on the head of the city just now, Huang Quji felt that his stomach was turning over and over, and his legs did not obey the call. He who usually boasted that his wisdom was no less than Zhuge Zhiliang, and his courage was no less than Guan Yun's length, but he suddenly felt confused and afraid, looking at the vast mountains in the distance, not knowing where to go.

"Governor, otherwise, let's organize the people and horses and kill them back and rescue the lady and the young master"? A commander cowered and stepped forward to ask, listening to the tone, he couldn't tell if he really wanted to wash away the mistake he made just now, or if he wanted to test Huang Quji's tone.

"Let's go to Glossy County to repair it, and try to restore it in a few days. Everyone doesn't have to worry about the safety of their families, Master Wen is an upright scholar", Huang Qujian knocked the horse's belly in frustration and took the lead to the northeast. pinning the safety of his family on the mercy of his opponent, I don't know if he is comforting his subordinates or comforting himself.

But Huang Quji didn't dare to turn back, with this group of demoralized remnants, recovery was just a spiritual sustenance. is also a Song person, on the battlefield, the new annexed army cannot look directly at each other's eyes. It's okay to follow the Mongols and fight Taipingquan, if they really let them attack the city, they will definitely disperse half of it halfway through. If the soldiers are lost, it will be difficult for Huang Qujian to protect himself from playing the role of an ambassador to persuade surrender.

was feeling sorry for himself, and suddenly heard a thunderclap behind him. A sentry flashed out next to the mountain, waving a large banner with the character of Song. Behind the standard-bearer, a young general in silver armor and white robe, carrying a long knife, killed him violently. Several rout soldiers couldn't dodge, and were chopped over by the generals like chopping melons and vegetables, and they were actually killed with knives and knives, without mercy.

"Kill, don't go Song traitor Huang to get sick", in the panic, I couldn't see how many ambushes came, the grass and trees in the depressions were shaking, and the smoke and dust were everywhere, and I didn't know how many opponents came in the four corners and how many traps were laid.

"It's Lin Qi", Huang Qu's eyes were sharp, and he took the lead in running northwest on horseback. The soldiers who followed Huang Qujian saw that the main general had fled, crying and shouting, and scattered for their lives, they were still exhausted and wanted to die just now, but at this moment they were afraid that their feet would not run fast enough. Most of the soldiers fell into the hands of the Song army, and the sound of begging for mercy was accompanied by the Song army's shouts of killing.

"Those who surrender will not die", Lin Qi saw Huang go and fled for his life, and did not chase after him, but led a few cavalry to rush left and break through the crowd, and broke the new annexed army into several sections. The new annex army, which had no time to escape, saw that the surrounding mountains were full of broken army flags, and did not dare to resist, so they obediently put down their weapons according to Lin Qi's orders and hugged their hands on the back of their heads.

Seeing that thousands of soldiers were escorted away by more than 400 soldiers of the Broken Army, Zou Xun, the squire of the military department, took a hundred and ten recruits and began to clean up the banners in the woods. On the orders of Wen Tianxiang's generals, he led the soldiers to ambush here for a whole day, but Zou Xun did not feel a trace of fatigue. Now, in his heart, he began to admire Wen Tianxiang's command ability. 5,000 men and horses dared to fight the big city garrisoned by 20,000 people, and it was calculated that Huang Quji did not dare to go out of the city to meet the enemy, and he also calculated that he was defeated and all the soldiers were soldiers. This ability is high, it is really high.

Kankan ran out for more than 20 miles, and he could already see the head of Glossy County in the distance. Huang Qu was so tired that he almost vomited blood, and he barely took the war horse and looked back again. At this time, more than 10,000 soldiers went to seventy percent, and less than 2,000 people followed with strong bodies. The soldiers are not soldiers, they are not in shape, they are bowed, and they are panting. Occasionally, a physically exhausted person fell down, and immediately spat at the foam and convulsed into a ball, and ran alive, there were many people.

With this remnant soldier, Huang Quji can almost conclude that his future in the Great Yuan Dynasty is completely ruined. Just as he was about to order the soldiers to enter the city to rest, he heard a war drum of "bone rumbling" in his ears, and the head of the county town waved flags and horns sounded in unison. Hundreds of energetic soldiers peeked out from behind the towers and shouted loudly.

"Kill, catch Song traitor"! The shouts echoed through the mountains.

"Big brother, let's run", Huang Tianhua slapped the horse's buttocks, bypassed Glossy City, and turned west. Huang Quji was hugged by several henchmen and cronies, and followed Huang Tianhua after the horse and ran fiercely. At this moment, I can't care about the future of my career anymore, the soldiers are lost, and whether they can run to the territory controlled by the Yuan army alive has become a problem.

Zhang Tang, the deputy commander of the first standard of the Broken Army, sneered at Huang Quji's back, and did not chase after him. Open the city gates and bring your men to gather the remnants of the new annexed army. Not long before he arrived at the gloss before Huang Quji, an hour ago, he led half a battalion of elite men and horses to pretend to be Shao Wu's rout and infiltrate the gloss, slashed the guard, and cut off Huang Quji's retreat without much effort.

As soon as the luster was lost, Shao Wujun no longer had a place for Huang to go to the disease, he could not go east, and someone intercepted him to the north, so he could only go around to the southwest, and the routs around him slipped less and less, and he could reach Xixi, and only Huang Tianhua and a few henchmen were left. From childhood to adulthood, Huang Qujian rode such a long distance on horseback for the first time, and only felt that his muscles and bones were in pain as if they were falling apart. I can't wait to get down from my horse and never get up.

"Tianhua, Tianhua, you wait for big brother". The governor of Shao Wu shouted aggrievedly at his own brother.

"Big, big brother, let's go, cross this stream, and then turn over the mountains in front of you, it is the new city, that is the ground of the Jianchang army, they and the Wen madman do not interfere with the river water"! Huang Tianhua didn't dare to look back, and urged his mount to test the depth of Xixi. The war horse, which had been running for a long time, gasped for white breath and reluctantly stepped its hooves into the icy stream.

It was the end of winter, the stream was shallow, and the middle of the river was nothing but a horse's legs. Huang Qujian saw that his brothers had crossed the river safely, and he also urged his war horse to follow, and the only five or six dead soldiers around him scattered, and used his war horse to sandwich Huang Qujian in the middle, always guarding against the coming of danger.

I crossed the river and walked upstream along the tributaries of the stream for more than an hour, and several green hills stood in front of me. There is no official road nearby, only a small road to climb the mountain. The soldiers hugged Huang Qujian off the war horse, supported each other, and walked towards the mountain path. When the cotton paper nail crossed the stream, it was soaked in water, and it was softly attached to the mountain, and it was blown by the mountain wind, which was cooler than iron.

"The Jianchang military guard is my old friend, and when I get there, the governor of Pontus will definitely thank you well", Huang Qujian was shocked for a moment, muttering a promise to repay his kindness. His eyes rolled around, thinking about how to trick a set of clothes out of his own soldiers and change them into this unlucky paper armor.

The henchmen smiled, and no one took Huang Quji's promise seriously. At the moment, it is unknown whether everyone will be able to get out of the mountains alive, and the matter of the bounty will be talked about when they have their lives to enjoy.

"When the governor of Bendu recruits troops, he will definitely take Shao Wu back, and when the time comes, you will all be promoted to the commander of the army", Huang Quji was still unwilling, and he chattered without a word.

"My lord, do you still want to lead the troops to fight against Wen Tianxiang", as he walked, the soldiers who were exploring the road in front of him suddenly asked.

"Ah, I, the governor of Pontus doesn't know", Huang Quji's answer was extremely honest, the soldiers were scattered, and he had no use value. led the troops to fight against Wen Tianxiang, and Kublai Khan was willing to let himself master another army of soldiers and horses. Even if Kublai Khan was willing, would the generals of the new annexed army who had soldiers in their hands obey their own commands?

"In my opinion, let's go back to our hometown and find a place to spend our birthday. Judging from today's war situation, it is difficult to say whose world will belong in the future", Huang Tianhua muttered quietly, he was timid, and after experiencing a war, he immediately shook the confidence that the world would belong to Dayuan.

"Let's take one step at a time, who knows", Huang Quji sighed, and the reason for abandoning Wen Tianxiang appeared in his heart again. 'Wen Tianxiang is warlike but doesn't know the soldiers, follows him, and dies in vain', judging from today's situation, Wen Tianxiang is really 'warlike and doesn't know the soldiers', why is almost every step he takes in his calculations.

"Lord Huang, the end will find you so hard"! A familiar voice came into Huang Quji's ears from the front. Dozens of soldiers, armed with crossbows, followed by a black-armored general to cut off the mountain road ahead. The military general had a single knife in his hand, and the black armor on his body was spotlessly polished, revealing coldness from the inside out.

"Guiqing", Huang Quji called out the other party's name in surprise. Then, he suddenly woke up and said that Du Hu was Wen Tianxiang's favorite general, and he had betrayed Wen Tianxiang for many years, and he and Du Hu were no longer companions who fought side by side.

"I didn't expect Huang Dudu to remember the old man", Du Hu waved the knife in his hand and gently took a step forward. Huang Quji, Huang Tianhua, can't afford to resist, and can't find a way to escape.

"Ah", a henchman jumped high with a knife, and a single knife was like electricity, slashing directly at Du Hu's head. Before his body fell, a feathered arrow roared to meet him, and with a pop, half of the arrow shaft passed by the neck. The dead man in mid-air abandoned his sword blankly, held the arrow feather, his pupils suddenly dilated, and then fell straight to the ground.

To death, he didn't want to believe that the other party's arrows were so heavy and so accurate.

The guards beside Du Hu habitually took half a step back, turned the handle, and reloaded the crossbow arrows. The companion next to him immediately filled the vacated position, and the crossbow bolts on the newly made Broken Bow glowed faintly blue. In the face of this blue light, all life can be regarded as dead things.

"Don't shoot, give them a fair chance, better than the knife in the general's hand, you can live", Du Hu proudly waved the blade in his hand, and a pair of silver rings on the lancet hit a pleasant roar. Huang Quji's heart was tickled by this cheer, and he had the heart to say a few words to boost morale, but his eyes couldn't leave the tip of the opponent's knife, his lips trembled, and only a word popped out at a moment: "Please....".

Before he could say anything for mercy, two more guards rushed forward with a shout. They had been with Huang Qujian for a long time, and their hands were stained with the blood of the Great Song Dynasty's resistance, and they didn't dare to beg for mercy. Since Du Hu promised to defeat the knife in his hand, he enlarged the way of life. The two guards wanted to go all out.

Du Hu moved, and his body gently slid half a step to the right. It was only half a step away, and it had already made the sword light of the two new army guards lose their target. Then, with a sharp twist, the light of his sword swept diagonally across a phantom. Half of the head flew out along the sword light, and blood splashed on the ground like water. Then the sword light swirled like a crane, hissed, and flew towards the chest of another dead man. Before the dead man could move his body, the blade had already sliced through the armor and slashed into his chest.

"You", the wounded dead man half-knelt on the ground, blood gushing out from under the broken nail leaves, instantly forming a depression on the ground.

The rest of the henchmen looked at each other, sweat running down the hilt and dripping down the tip of the knife into the dirt. Take people's money and eliminate disasters with others. They were employed by Huang Quji, and it was their duty to protect the safety of Lord Huang. But the black-armored general in front of him was clearly a devil, and they asked themselves, they couldn't match the knife in the opponent's hand, and the sword light was not so ruthless.

Du Hu swung his knife and made a gesture of inviting battle. The person in front of him, he looked down on, and he didn't plan to let go of any of them. Prime Minister Wen is unwilling to bear the notoriety of killing, and he Du Hu doesn't care. If he can restore thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, he will not be evaluated before his death and his reputation after his death.

The Northern Yuan can kill people and slaughter cities. Why did the Song army have to be a teacher of benevolence and righteousness? Let those executioners and shameless people go so that they have a chance to make a comeback?

"Well, Pontus Governor admits defeat today", Huang Qujian saw that there was no hope of escape, so he simply stopped retreating, untied the sword at his waist and threw it to the ground, "Wen Cheng is quite old, if he has such a means today, Huang will not be distracted by him." Huang is tied up at this moment, and I hope that General Du will remember the love of the year, don't be embarrassed for a few of my guards."

When several of the dead men saw that the master had dropped their weapons, they also put down their knives. Du Hu looked at the dejected Huang Quji, looked at Huang Tianhua, who was shivering like chaff, and let out a long sigh. These two, including the henchmen and dead soldiers around Huang Quji, were once anti-Yuan deceased, but unfortunately, they were too good at judging the situation and stood under the banner of the Mongols early.

"From the beginning, you were wrong about Master Wen, and now, you are even more wrong." A bowstring sound sounded from the mountain path, shaking his head, Du Hu said to Huang Quji, who had fallen.

Entering the city, gathering the remnants of the army, maintaining law and order, extinguishing the remaining fires, counting the household registration, and arranging the aftermath of the work, it was already dawn the next day.

Wen Tianxiang rubbed his red and swollen eyes, and read the battle reports sorted out by the generals. These battle reports were all written in accordance with the unified requirements of his training in Baizhangling, and the content was concise and clear. Winning the two cities of Shaowu and Luang with one blow, this record is enough to make the Broken Army proud, but Wen Tianxiang's heart is turbulent and he is not happy at all.

He was unhappy, not because the battle of Shaowu did not go well, but because this victory came too smoothly, so smooth that he felt bitter in his mouth. Lin Qi led his troops to escape, Zhang Tang deceived to gain luster, and Du Hu was responsible for pursuing the remnants of the enemy army, which were all planned at the pre-war meeting. But the time to win each step was more than a little earlier than he had arranged. If it weren't for the timely response of the generals, it is impossible to say that Huang Quji's troops would have fled to Jianning Mansion.

It was expected that Huang Quji did not have the courage to go out of the city to meet the enemy, but in order to prevent Huang Quji from holding the city, Wen Tianxiang also specially asked Chen Zijing, who was in charge of the scout work, to send someone to contact Chen Hangyan, a giant thief who was active in Fujian, and Mrs. Xu, the leader of the She tribe, and asked the two of them to bring troops to assist. Who knows, Huang Qujian not only did not fight, but he didn't even defend for two hours, and the two armies had not officially contacted, and Shao Wu had become an abandoned city.

This weak performance of the new annexed army could not make Wen Tianxiang happy, in his mind, the new annexed army had no combat effectiveness, and Huang Quji was weak, but not to this extent. After all, Huang Quji's command turned out to be an important supporting force for him when Wen Tianxiang opened the mansion in Nanjianzhou, and he once dreamed of relying on this force to go on the Northern Expedition and recover the Great Song Dynasty.

Now Wen Tianxiang understands how wrong he was back then. The 4,000 broken army defeated the 20,000 new annexed army like a broken bamboo, and behind the infinite scenery, Wen Tianxiang felt that he was simply slapping himself now. With this kind of combat effectiveness and morale of the new annexed army, it is no wonder that they are invincible in front of the Northern Yuan army.

But this kind of morale is low, and the army that will collapse in every battle still has more than 200,000 in the hands of the Xingchao. The news that the imperial court had once again drifted to the sea had been picked up by the captured new annex generals. Under the leadership of a stubborn general like Zhang Shijie, Wen Tianxiang didn't know that the 200,000 Song army of the Xing Dynasty, which was not even as effective as the new annexed army, could support it for a few days.

It's time to attract Dayuan's attention, if not for anything else, just for the imperial court to support it for a few more days, leaving a little hope for the forces that persist in resistance everywhere to persevere. Wen Tianxiang once again turned his attention to the map, in the direction of Guangzhou, Liu Shen, Mongol Dai, Suo Duo, Pu Shougeng, no matter which of the four armies was attracted back, Zhang Shijie had the opportunity to dock the battleship on land again. And in order to create a chance for the imperial court, the newly born Broken Army had to bear the onslaught of waves coming from all directions alone.

Difficult, although the terrain of Shao Wujun is dangerous, it is just a projectile land with a radius of more than 100 miles. If you blindly defend it, there will always be a day when it will be broken by the enemy. And in which direction can you go to attack, there are enemy troops in the south, south, and north, and every step must be prevented from someone copying their own back road.

For the sake of the dying court, sacrifice the new blood with the hope of the nation. Is it worth it? Wen Tianxiang asked himself over and over again.

The books he had read and his habits made it easy for him to make up his mind to attack. But deep down there was a faint voice calling out to him, telling him that the decision was wrong and not worth it. The remnant Song who was adrift on the sea was just a court, but what he needed to guard was a country.
