Chapter 2 Butterfly Change VI
Butterfly Transformation (6)
Everyone has their own dreams, and Chen Hangyan's dream is to become a hero of the world and lead 100,000 soldiers and horses to sweep the world. Wen Tianxiang's dream is to revive the Great Song Dynasty, so that Huaxia will no longer fall into the cycle of chaos. On the Northern Yuan side, Da Chun's dream was to defeat the first division of the Broken Army commanded by Zou Fengshu and Zhang Tang in front of him and re-"stabilize" Jiangnan.
Although, Dachun sometimes wakely realizes that he is dreaming. But he couldn't help but repeat the dream over and over again until the blood in his body boiled, and then he opened his eyes, shook his spirits, and threw himself into the battle for a new day.
The current situation made Dachun unable not to feel depressed, and he could only rely on unrealistic dreams to temporarily boost his morale. The broken army in the four places fought more and more, and the stronger they became, but the soldiers under their command had no fighting spirit. The new annex army always wanted to desert and sneak back to their home in the south to see the few acres of paddy fields distributed to their home by the Broken Army. The Dangxiang, Khitan and Jurchen warriors in the Tanma Red Army have rumored that the old thief Wen Tianxiang treats the people of the world equally, and the samurai of all ethnic groups in the department are treated no different from the Han people, and they are not guilty of those who return from afar. Even the Mongol army, which Dachun has always relied on, now does not have the indomitable courage of the early years, and the soldiers have heard the rumor that they will go down to the mines to work as coolies after being captured, and they will never live if they are not redeemed.
Compared with the soldiers under his command getting weaker and weaker, what makes Dachun even more depressed is that his opponent is getting stronger and stronger unconsciously. Da Chun remembers that when he first went down to the south of the Yangtze River, a Mongolian warrior could chase dozens of Song soldiers like sheep. Even turned more than a dozen remnants of the Song Dynasty soldiers with weapons in hand into captives, let them dig pits for themselves, and then jump down and bury themselves, those captured Song people could not afford the slightest resistance except for crying and begging for mercy.
And now, the Song people, who are also physically weak, have stopped in front of the horses of tens of thousands of Dayuan soldiers in a group of thirty or fifty until they are overwhelmed by the tide of soldiers and horses, and few people turn back. Even on local battlefields, there were a small number of soldiers of the Broken Army chasing and fighting with the Yuan army twice as large as themselves. Not only in the army, but also in the people, those who were conquered have also undergone qualitative changes, in the past, a tax collector with three or five small officials to the countryside, even if the last grain of rice from the people's homes was collected, those flat-headed slaves did not dare to complain at all. Today, without hundreds of soldiers to protect them, the tax collectors would never dare to walk in the countryside. Not only has the efficiency of raising grain and wages been greatly reduced, but there have even been frequent cases where tax collectors and officers and soldiers have been attacked by the people and never returned.
This series of changes did not happen instantaneously, but unconsciously, it has reborn the Han people in the south. When did this qualitative change begin, Dachun is unknown. But he always felt the threat of change. Directly in front of him was more than 30,000 broken troops armed with artillery and steel crossbows, and directly behind him, more than 20,000 guerrilla soldiers of the broken army were active. All around him, from the city of Ganzhou to the foot of Luoxiao Mountain, there were eyes of hatred everywhere, and Da Chun didn't know when these silent crowds would break out and stand up and swallow the conquerors from the north and south of the river in a sea of hatred.
Sooner or later that day came back, Huaxia was like a sleeping dragon, and the Mongols had not been able to cut off his noble head while it was sleeping, and had to face his wrath when he woke up. And the crimes committed by the Mongols after they went south were precisely the steel thorns under the scales.
Da Chun thought, depressed and worried. For those who stand in his position and have personally experienced the changes in the spirit and temperament of the Song people in recent years, the current complaints of Mongolian prisoners of war and their families, as well as the misunderstanding of the Great Khan Kublai Khan, are all trivial matters that are not worth mentioning. At best, it involves the ups and downs of one person, while the changes that occur in the Han people in the south involve the survival of the entire Mongolian nation.
However, he couldn't find a way to postpone the end of the world.
"Bang!" A cannonball exploded not far away, shaking the military tent at Dachun's feet. The weapon shelves full of swords and swords were shaken down, and all kinds of swords fell to the ground.
"Dashuai!" Several of his own soldiers rushed into the tent, trying to persuade Dachun to leave the military tent temporarily and retreat half a mile, so as not to be accidentally hit by the long-range artillery of the Broken Army. Looking at Da Chun Tieqing's face, he swallowed back his stomach after the words of advice.
"What's the panic, clean up here for Ben Shuai. The Song people don't have clairvoyance, how do they know that Ben Shuai is here! Da Chun glared at his own soldiers and ordered coldly.
The swords that fell to the ground were all captured by him during his twenty years of military career, and the original owner was either a northern nobleman or a famous southern general, and the most disadvantaged was also a favorite of local dignitaries such as Taishou and pacification envoys. Now, these former opponents seem to be staring at themselves through the weapons they left behind, waiting to see their jokes, how can Da Chun cower at this moment and let others look down on him.
"Yes, Dashuai!" The soldiers agreed, bent down to pick up the swords underground, and just put the weapon rack steadily, there was another cannon sound, and a cannonball falling from the sky exploded not far from the tent of the Chinese army in Dachun, shrapnel shot everywhere, and the tent was saved out of several basin-sized holes, and the smoke of gunpowder mixed with mud poured down the holes and poured into the holes, so that people couldn't open their eyes.
"Dashuai, uh-huh, Dashuai, uh-huh" The soldiers coughed and begged in embarrassment, "Dashuai, you can move away, this, this is too close to the front, too, too unsafe!" ”
"Don't move, pass on my orders, don't make a fuss, there are people who shout and move, there is no forgiveness!" Da Chun let out a series of roars, ignoring the kindness of his subordinates.
The soldiers wept and passed on the order. The stomach greeted Dachun's ancestors all over again. According to the Mongolian military law, the commander was killed in battle, and those who returned to the health guard, the guards themselves and their families were martyred. If the current war is still the same as tradition, the pro-soldiers will not dare to complain that Da Chun is gambling with everyone's lives. But since the capture of the army out of Shaowu, the battlefield is no longer the situation of the past. The artillery of the captive army is divided into several types: heavy, light, and fast, and the farthest heavy artillery can reach five or six miles in one hit. Although this kind of heavy artillery is not equipped much, Dachun's current position is just within the range of the heavy artillery of the Broken Army. Although the gunners of the Broken Army could not see Dachun, they could not aim at such a distance. However, in case which shell is not long-sighted and blindfolds Dachun, who will the soldiers complain to? Take the charge of "cowering in the face of the enemy, causing the coach to die", this crime is really a bit wronged. Be brave and try your best to find the enemy gunners, and you can't even see where the opponent is.
"Da Shuai, where is Da Shuai, how is Da Shuai!" Someone saw Dachun's Chinese military tent on fire and ran over at the risk of his life. The guards who had just eaten the turtle beside Dachun didn't dare to answer loudly, so they glanced at the people and hurriedly ran away.
"Dashuai, where is Dashuai?" As if deliberately adding fuel to the fire, shouts of concern rang out in all directions. One is bigger than the other, and the other is more anxious. The soldiers in the vicinity of several tents did not understand what was happening, and at the same time they clamoured.
"Ben Shuai is not dead, why are you panicking!" Hearing the commotion outside, Da Chun knew that if he didn't show up again, the army's heart would definitely be in turmoil, so he shouted angrily and rushed out of the tent.
Nerha, Solihan, Yuan Jizu, Li Feng, Wanyan Sheng and other Mongolian and party generals were embarrassed and stopped in disdain. The shells came suddenly, and everyone was taken aback. Some of their generals are descendants who have been following Dachun, and some are "guest generals" who have been transferred to Dachun from Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng, and they came to visit the coach with different purposes.
"Dashuai, you move to Qixingling, this place is too close to the Broken Army, Zou Xun is shameless, this kind of fighting, we can't compete with him!" Tens of thousands of households came forward to persuade.
He and Dachun are of the same clan, and they have the best friendship, and they deliberately angered Zhang Hongfan for Dachun, and they received a hundred sticks for no reason. stepped forward to speak at this moment, and Da Chun couldn't lose his temper with him no matter what. With a long sigh, Da Chun asked, "Do you all want to retreat before the enemy is seen, so that people can see my Mongolian warrior jokes?" Ben Shuai retreated at this time, where will he put the tens of thousands of soldiers at the foot of this mountain? Where will I be the mighty of the Great Yuan Army? ”
"Dashuai!" Nairha didn't know how to persuade him next, he was not an eloquent person, he had been following Dachun for more than ten years, and he was promoted to 10,000 households by virtue of a ruthless spirit that was not afraid of death when he was about to fight. This time he opened his mouth to persuade him, but he felt awkward, but seeing that Da Chun insisted, he had to reorganize his armor and stand behind Da Chun.
"This is my Great Yuan Samurai!" Da Chun praised approvingly, and his eyes swept over all the civil and military forces around him. From the faces of the generals and staff, he saw the determination of the brave and saw a lot of disappointment.
Several more shells fell alternately, blowing up several tents not far away. The generals on duty and the soldiers hurriedly ran up, and while treating the wounded, they used force to suppress the "cowards" who refused to obey the orders and disturbed the morale of the troops.
Da Chun walked over with his own soldiers, cut down a few noisy soldiers, and wrapped the wounds of a few lightly wounded soldiers with his own hands. Yuan Jizu and other generals saw that the commander was using his life like this, and scolded Dachun's ancestor in his stomach, and followed him to help Dachun stabilize the army's heart. Everyone was in a hurry, and the chaotic situation slowly returned to calm, and the shells that came from nowhere seemed to lose interest, and they hit several times intermittently, and slowly stopped.
"Marshal, why do you want to take risks yourself?" The noise was quiet, and a singing voice immediately sounded. It sounds like a complaint, but a seven-point is like a sycophant.
Everyone resisted the disgust in their hearts and turned around, and saw a few mouse whiskers, as well as the lonely ghost-like green face of Song Ren Jiao Youzhi.
"Mr. Jiao is also here to make noise?" Da Chun was not as good-tempered as the Mongols to the Song people, and asked impatiently.
Li Zhen, Yuan Jizu and other side generals all looked sideways, full of disdain. If it weren't for this unscrupulous literati who offered Dachun a desperate plan to use the direction of the water flow to create a plague and harm the people of Fujian, the Yuan army would not have lost the support of the people so much. Originally, because of some improper innovation measures by Wen Tianxiang and the Broken Army, many high-ranking families were pushed to the side of Dayuan. After Mr. Jiao's clever plan was implemented, many people who were close to the Yuan army changed their attitudes. These people don't care about changing the dynasty, but they are not without principles and bottom lines. Using the water to spread the plague, this indiscriminate way of killing is no different from that of birds and beasts.
"Don't dare, the handsome man knows, for the general's body, he is not easy to speak bravely! Besides, Zou Thief's methods are despicable, why should the handsome fight with this person for a short time! Jiao Youzhi didn't care what others thought of him, although the poisoning plan did not destroy the entire Fujian as expected, but according to the secret report, the plague brought more damage to the Broken Army than a large-scale military attack. In Jiao Youzhi's eyes, the reason why Wen Tianxiang did not order the Broken Army to go north for a long time was because of one of his own clever plans. It can be said that the Great Yuan Dynasty has been able to persist in Jiangnan until now, and the first credit is not Zhang Hongfan, not Dachun, but his Jiao Youzhi. Although Kublai Khan has not rewarded him for his merits, Jiao Youzhi believes that with his wisdom and wisdom, sooner or later, he will be able to become famous in the world.
"Don't talk about it easily?" Da Chun wiped the dust off his face and asked with a sneer, "Has Sir ever heard that a brave person can win a decisive victory in front of the two armies?" ”
"No, the battle for power in front of the army is the courage of a husband, not the boss. And the adults are the commanders, and every move is related to the life and death of the three armies, so ......." Jiao Youzhi deliberately stopped his words and looked at Nerha and the others. Intuitively, he felt that even Mongolian warriors like Nerha and Solihan were unwilling to accompany Dachun to die under the enemy's artillery.
Sure enough, as he expected, Suolihan took over the conversation and persuaded Da Chun: "What Mr. Jiao said is very true, I think that once the commander is injured, the three armies will be chaotic, and Zou Thief is afraid that this is the day he is waiting for!" ”
"Yes, yes, the marshal is a member of the community, why bother to go to the front line to make a risk, in the past half a month, the broken army has been firing artillery day and night, and our army went to challenge, but they didn't dare to respond. Handsome and find a quiet place to think of a way to break the enemy, there is no need to be as knowledgeable as the Song people! Yuan Jizu, Li Feng, and Wan Yansheng eagerly persuaded as if Da Chun had withdrawn from the front line, and it would immediately have the effect of causing the enemy to collapse.
Da Chun's gaze swept over the general's face again, and he was disappointed in his heart. He understands what Jiao Youzhi means, and he also understands the thoughts of the generals. As soon as he, the commander, leaves the front line, those staff, henchmen and important generals, or people who think they are important, will also retreat one after another, camping out of the reach of the heavy artillery of the Broken Army. In this way, the generals are safe, but the morale of the front line has also collapsed. The Broken Army continued to harass with artillery for several days, and when it took the opportunity to strike a decisive blow, the Yuan Army had to retreat back dozens of miles. In the past few months, Zou Wei has relied on this kind of tricks that famous generals despise, and used tens of thousands of broken troops to suppress more than 100,000 soldiers and horses of Dayuan, from Shicheng, Ruijin, and Huichang to Yandu, and it is about to be pressed into Ganzhou City.
This kind of tactic has no fancy skills to speak of, and it has nothing to do with any strategy or good strategy recorded in the ancient and modern art of war books. Relying on the superiority brought by artillery, he put pressure on the Yuan army. On several occasions, Da Chun tried to send people back to Zou Xun's rear, trying to take advantage of the speed advantage of the cavalry to break through the artillery group of the Broken Army. Or take advantage of the mobility of the Yuan army to cut off the supply lines of the broken army, and each time it ends in failure.
Zou Xun, who suffered countless losses from the Beiyuan Iron Cavalry on Jiangnan West Road, finally learned one thing, that is, to seek stability in everything. With a stable word, deal with all the strategies of Dachun. Steady and steady, step by step, like a rumbling carriage, crushed towards the hinterland of Jiangnan West Road. Although the speed is not fast, any praying mantis in front of the car will not escape the fate of being crushed.
"Ben Shuai can't retreat, and you can't retreat either, Zou Thief wants to win with momentum, and what we can't afford to lose is this momentum!" Da Chun retracted his gaze, shook his head, and said to all the civil and martial arts. "There are a lot of us, and although the Breaker Army is menacing, there are few people after all. As long as we can withstand it in the area of Yanshan, we will have a chance to win. As long as the two rivers are not lost, the battle of the literary thieves in the two Zhejiang provinces will be all in vain. Lord Boyan has already begun to rectify the soldiers and horses, as long as his old man comes, the entire Jiangnan will be ours! ”
"Lord Boyan?" Hearing this, Nerha was slightly stunned. Obviously, as Da Chun's confidant, it was also the first time he heard the news of Boyan's imminent arrival.
This person has the prestige of never being defeated in a hundred battles and the power of the right minister of the Great Yuan, what does his arrival mean to Dachun? Nairha suddenly felt a very ominous premonition in her heart.
"Maybe the handsome's behavior of not avoiding artillery fire is also because of this." A sense of sorrow welled up in Solihan's heart, and he clenched the hilt of his sword tightly and straightened up.
"Lord Boyan? Dashuai, is it Prime Minister Boyan? Li Zhen asked in surprise from the new attached army. There are few Mongolian names, and there are only a few over and over again, and the number of high-ranking officials named Boyan in the Great Yuan Dynasty is no less than forty. If the right minister Boyan arrived, the battle situation in the entire Jiangnan might be a different scene.
"Of course, is there anyone else who can do this?" Da Chun smiled and asked rhetorically.
The name of the man, the shadow of the tree, and the soldiers who were still demoralized because they could not see the passive beating of the enemy immediately let out a burst of cheers, as if they saw the final victory coming.
"Boyan, the right minister of the Great Yuan, the humerus of Kublai Khan, has been defeated in a hundred battles. Prestigious in the army..."
"This not only means that the Mongols have another coach in Jiangnan, but also means that the Northern Yuan has stabilized the situation in the main grassland, and the center of gravity has shifted from the north to the south!" That night, under the oil lamp, a pen wrote in neat block letters. The light was so dim that I couldn't see who was holding the pen, and after a while, the pen was put down, and the paper was dried by the oil lamp, rolled up, and sent out.
In the middle of the night, several figures quietly slipped out of the Yuan camp and disappeared to the south.
