Su Quandang and Wen Tianxiang of the Great Song Zhenbei Military Region and the Fujian Military Region had already made preparations early.

Throughout the Great Song Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty, all major cities were arranged with heavy troops.

In addition to the garrison of Jiangling Mansion, there are also two armies led by Su Quandang and Liu Zaiyuan to garrison Tiangang and Tianli. At the same time, Wen Qi also led the Changde garrison to arrive.

In the city of Ezhou, He Fangsong, Jin Hao, and Jiang Xiu commanded the three armies of Tianying, Tianfu, and Tianman.

Longxing Mansion on Jiangnan West Road, there is a garrison military region of Longxing Mansion, and the three armies of Tiandark, Tianyou and Sky under the command of Wen Tianxiang are stationed.

Fujian Road Jianning Mansion, Wen Tianxiang led the three armies of Tiansu, Tianyi, and Tianzhi to defend it.

And on the coastline not far from Jianning Mansion, there is also Fuzhou, and there are more than 10,000 Fuzhou garrisons in Fuzhou City.

It can be said that half of the troops of the Great Song Dynasty are gathered here, and if the defenders of each city are counted, there are more than 150,000 people.

It is conceivable that if there is a war, it will inevitably be an earth-shattering scene.

Only two days later, the Yuan army that had originally gathered in Xiangyang City went straight to Changlin County, which was the closest city to the Yuan Dynasty in the Great Song Dynasty in the north of Jiangling Prefecture.

If the Yuan army takes it, it will inevitably go straight to Jiangling Mansion.

Their strategy is completely different from that of the New Song Dynasty and Dali. It can be described as menacing.

After Su Quandang learned that the Yuan army was directly attacking Changlin, he immediately summoned the generals to discuss in the military camp.

If Changlin is lost, the Yuan army will stop in the Great Song Dynasty, and it will hit the morale of the Great Song Dynasty. Obviously, he was not willing to let the Yuan army capture Changlin like this.

On the same day, Su Quandang led Tiangang, Tianli and Wenqi's Changde garrison to leave Jiangling Mansion and go to Changlin County. Only the Gangneung garrison was left in Gangneung Province.

The Great Song Forbidden Army was never afraid of bloody battles.

There are countless examples of them winning more with less.

Although the Yuan army that swooped down from Xiangyang was 150,000, in Su Quandang's eyes, it was obviously not invincible.

As the most top-notch Qingrui faction in the army, his style is far bolder and tougher than those veterans in Miao Youli.

An army of 30,000 pushed grain and grass and rushed to Changlin. When they arrived, the Yuan army had not yet arrived. The distance from Yangyang to Changlin is much greater than the distance from Gangneung to Changlim.

When the Changlin County Commander learned that Su Quandang had arrived with his army, he was very excited and hurriedly led the officials to the city gate to greet him.

He was going to invite Su Quandang to the mansion for a banquet, but Su Quandang said: "At this time, the Yuan army is rushing towards Changlin, and at this time, Ben Shuai should be at the head of the city." ”

It can be regarded as the good intention of refusing the Changlin County Order.

"Su Shuai is righteous."

The Changlin County Commander would not let go of such a good opportunity to pat himself on the back, and all kinds of compliments suddenly poured out like the water of the Yangtze River.

This is simply a must-have skill for officials of this era.

Su Quandang was in a high position, and he was used to it, so after a little greeting, he led the soldiers up to the city.

Catapults, grenadiers, etc., were carried to the city.

Grain and grass were transported to the military camp in the city.

Changlin County, which originally seemed a little deserted, suddenly became lively. Everywhere there were Praetorian soldiers shuttling around.

The less than two thousand defenders in the city were completely dumbfounded when they saw the equipment of the forbidden army.

They thought that their weapons and armor ratio were already very good, but it was only now that compared with the forbidden army, they suddenly felt like they were beggars.

In their army, only generals have standard steel armor, and everyone in the forbidden army has it, and this is only light cavalry and foot soldiers, and the armor of the heavy cavalry in the forbidden army makes the eyes of the defending generals shine.

With such a full armament, it is simply a humanoid beast on the battlefield.

From this neat armor alone, the defenders seemed to be vaguely imagining the fighting power of the forbidden army.

In a short time, a great crowd poured out.

They helped the soldiers carry arrows, build bunkers, etc., and although there was an element of the Changlin County Order's appeal, more of them were spontaneous.

This is not Kuizhou Road, which has been recovered by the Great Song Dynasty for a long time. Although it was close to the border of the Yuan Dynasty, many of Zhao Dongting's new policies had remarkable results here.

Therefore, the people here are not as blind as the people of Kuizhou Road. For the Great Song Dynasty, they had a great centripetal force.

Spring rain continues.

The whole city was gradually shrouded in smoke and rain.

But the city was in full swing.

The people and the soldiers went back and forth.

When all kinds of equipment were moved to the city, and bunkers were built everywhere in the outer city, Su Quandang let the soldiers rest. On this day, the food in the army was unusually abundant.

And in the evening, when the incense was overflowing and the smoke was curling in the city, the Yuan army finally rushed outside the city.

Their soldiers looked like they were all over the mountains, and there was no end in sight. The black oppressive expanse blends with this gloomy heaven and earth.

The trumpets sounded at the head of the city.

The Tiangang and Tianli soldiers stationed at the head of the city all looked intently towards the outside of the city.

The Changde garrison of Wenqi is in the city and can be regarded as a reserve.

"Prepare for war!"

"Prepare for war!"

The shouts of the Great Song generals sounded above the city.

However, the Yuan army quickly retreated outside the city. The people who had spread all over the mountains gradually disappeared outside the city.

They camped about two miles away from Changlin County.

Obviously, although the Yuan army was menacing, it did not want to take Changlin County urgently.

Looking at this posture, they are afraid that they will have to fight steadily. After all, fighting a war is a long-term affair. Unless it's like Yue Li Jun, he just wants to fight the autumn wind like a robber.

What Kublai Khan wanted was the entire Great Song Kingdom.

At this time, in Ezhou, Longxing Mansion, Jianning Mansion and other places, the situation is similar to this Changlin.

The Yuan army on Huainan West Road rushed straight to the outside of Ezhou City, and also had more than 100,000 troops.

The Yuan army on Jiangnan East Road bypassed Panyang Lake and went straight to Longxing Mansion from Yugan County.

The Yuan army of the Liangzhejiang East Road also marched into the territory of Fujian Road.

Wen Tianxiang, Jin Hao and others had the same choice as Su Quandang, they all led the army to resist, and they were determined not to let the Yuan Dynasty take any city.

And these Yuan troops were not in a hurry to attack.

Clearly, their strategy is to play it steady.

With their strength, it seems that they can completely trap the more than 100,000 Song troops along the northern frontier.

Su Quandang, Wen Tianxiang and others each passed the situation to Changsha City.

In the face of so many Yuan troops, how to fight, of course they had to ask Zhao Dongting what he meant. After all, Zhao Dongting is currently in control of the overall situation.

The current Great Song family has a great business, which is different from before. Fighting a war can no longer be as casual as before, and you can kill wherever you want.

At this time, the country is under attack, whether to take the initiative to seek a decisive battle, or to passively defend and fight steadily, this is not something that Su Quandang and Wen Tianxiang can decide.

Because they don't know what the whole situation in the country is now, all they can do is act according to Zhao Dongting's strategic policy.

One after another, carrier pigeons landed in Changsha City.

The Imperial Study of Changsha Imperial Palace.

"Your Majesty, there is another urgent report on Fujian Road!"

The little eunuch Yi Shiyu ran over again.

By this time it was already dark outside.

"Enter."

Zhao Dongting's voice came from the imperial study.

Yi Shiyu nodded at the guard at the door and walked into the house.

Zhao Dongting and Le Chan sat on the dragon couch.

Yi Shiyu submitted the express report.

"Huh."

Zhao Dongting, who had read the letter, sneered a few times, "It's really menacing......"

He has received letters from the north one after another, all of which say that the Yuan Dynasty army is pressing. After a slight estimate, the Yuan army is afraid that there are more than 600,000 people.

"Near the city without attacking it...... Do you want to play steadily, or do you want to move like thunder? Zhao Dongting muttered in his mouth. Then he took a pen and wrote on paper, "Nowadays, the Great Song Dynasty is under attack on three sides, and the armies of the New Song Dynasty and Dali are strange in Kuizhou and Guangnan West. If the war in the north also reaches a stalemate, it will cause a great burden on our army's food and grass supply. Although our army is small, all of them are elite, and I believe that you have such strength. ”

After writing, he folded the letter and handed it to Yi Shiyu, "Send this letter to Luzhenghe County, Fujian." ”

He has already replied to three such letters, and there is almost no difference in the content.

In fact, it stands to reason that the Yuan army was huge, and the Great Song Dynasty should have been slowly circulating, but Zhao Dongting was also worried that this was falling into the hands of Kublai Khan and Duan Qilin. At the same time, in the face of the New Song Dynasty, Dali, and Yuan Dynasty, it was indeed difficult for the Great Song Dynasty to support it for a long time.

Therefore, the only way to solve it is to fight quickly, although it is dangerous, it is also very likely to solve the power of the Great Song Dynasty.

Yi Shiyu took the order and retreated.

Le Chan looked at Zhao Dongting's brows and locked deeply, stretched out her hand and gently stroked his eyebrows, she didn't speak, but there was a heartache in her eyes. Zhao Dongting hasn't slept much these days, and she sees it all in her eyes.

He is the man she loves the most, how can she not feel distressed?

Zhao Dongting held Le Chan's hand and smiled.

It's all in plain sight.
