With the counterattack of the Song army, the Yuan army left on the island also knew that the general trend had gone, coupled with the disappearance of the main general and the death of the dragon leaderless army, it was difficult to organize resistance under the shaking of the hearts of the dragonless army, and the rising tide forced them to have nowhere to escape, they could only swim back and forth on the beach, some were killed, some were swallowed by the rising tide, more people chose to surrender, and the battle on both sides of the estuary basically ended in the afternoon.

Having lost all their ships, the Yuan army on Baisha Island had nowhere to flee and trapped them like a cage. Today is the fifteenth day and it coincides with the high tide, and the area of Baisha Island is even smaller, and many soldiers do not even have a foothold on the island, so they can only stand waist-deep in the water. The thirsty and hungry Yuan army could only catch seaweed, small fish, small shrimp, crabs and seashells that rushed up to feed on them, but there were still 20,000 or 30,000 people on the island.

At this time, the Song army on Haitian Island and Xinbu Island did not launch a counterattack, and the warships at sea had already returned to the port and docked except for some of them on guard in the open sea, as if they had forgotten them. As a battle-hardened veteran, Oluchi naturally knew that the Song army had not forgotten them, the current Baisha Island was a prison, and there was no need to send a guard, and he was not afraid that they would run away, so why waste troops and material resources to deal with them.

Oluchi also understood that they had been completely defeated in the attack on Qiongzhi, the infantry and cavalry were trapped on the island, the naval army was defeated, the battlefield was completely destroyed, and the commander Ali Hague did not know whether he was alive or dead. Even if it broke through and fled back to the mainland, this attack on Qiong basically mobilized all the troops of Huguang Province, in addition to mobilizing the Jinghu naval army, almost all the river boats and sea ships belonging to the province were requisitioned, so Ali Hague could not rescue them at all if he could escape back.

As for the others, Oluchi knew that he couldn't point to it, the troops of Fujian Province had already gone to crusade against Zhancheng, and only Li Heng of Guangdong still had some strength, but at this juncture, he was afraid that he was also worried that the Qiongzhou army would fight Guangzhou again, and he would definitely not risk his life in order to rescue himself. It is even more of a joke to transfer troops from elsewhere to save himself, but he is afraid that even if he transfers troops, it will be used to prevent Qiongzhou from launching a big counteroffensive, he understands that no one is willing to give up such a good opportunity, and the thief does not want to waste his troops on himself, I am afraid it is the same.

People who think too clearly will despair and feel that all efforts are meaningless. This is exactly what Oluchi did, who sat back and watched his soldiers fight for a piece of dry land, who did not hesitate to kill for a mouthful of water, and who turned a blind eye to the generals who ventured into the water and fled, and allowed them to surrender without firing an arrow. The only thing he had to think about now was where he was going to go!

The way of life is broken, and death is not a big deal for soldiers who are accustomed to seeing death and will face it every day. But how to die is indeed a question, the Mongols are born warriors, and it is a great honor for them to die in battle. Oluchi knew that he was trapped in a cage, and the Song army was waiting for the moment when they surrendered when they were hungry and thirsty, and he was a hereditary family, and the commander who led the army wanted to wag his tail and beg for mercy from the thief, and he could not do it anyway.

Even if the thief was able to give himself enough face to surrender, Oluchi thought that he could not surrender, and if he did, he would have to live like a dog. And the Great Khan will definitely cut off his family's title and hereditary title, which will not only disgrace the entire tribe, but also affect his own family. Land, slaves, and property will be confiscated, and children, wives, and concubines will be sent to the homes of heroes as slaves.

"Deputy Marshal, what should I do? We're all going to be trapped to death if we continue like this! Ulu and Yilie timidly leaned over and sat down, full of worry.

"What can I do? Those shes soldiers are gone! Oluchi asked with a sigh as he turned his head to look at the two generals, who were all wounded.

"Well, I can't think of any idea before I asked the lieutenant?" Uru shook his head and sighed.

"Deputy marshal, those She soldiers hid in the east of the river after the conflict, they only have a few thousand people left, they can't fight us!" He also timidly pointed to the She soldiers on a small sandbar on the other side of the river, which was the closest position to the Song army, and no one dared to go for fear of being attacked by rockets, which was the 'cheapest' of the She soldiers. "Those guys are still busy putting together some broken boats into rafts, and they seem to want to cross the sea and go home!" ”

"With their rotten boards, where can they cross the strait, I am afraid that they will be overturned by the waves without being intercepted by the Song army. I think it's more realistic for them to go to Song! Ulu said.

"Oh, if they dare to go to Song, I'll shoot them first!" Yi Lie listened timidly, stood up and looked over there.

"Sit down, let them go!" "Now that we have fallen into a desperate situation, the morale of the army is shaken, and the soldiers do not want to fight, and if we suppress it, it will inevitably provoke a mutiny. We killed each other, which is what the thief was happy to see, and these soldiers were not with us in the first place, so let them go! ”

"Lieutenant Marshal, isn't this too cheap for them!" Yi Lie sat down timidly and still said indignantly.

"Can't you see the current situation? The soldiers were so hungry that they could only feed their hunger with seaweed and dew to quench their thirst, and reinforcements were far away. They all want to cut off our heads to vote for Song, and you still have to make trouble now. Ulu saw it more timidly, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled bitterly.

"This ...... Shall we let them do whatever they want? Yi Lie was taken aback when he heard this, he hurriedly looked back and looked around, and sure enough, he found that some of the generals were looking at him with the wrong eyes, and his face couldn't help but change suddenly and muttered.

"So for now!" Olu said.

"Now that Du Shuai's life and death are unknown, the navy army has collapsed, and we are trapped here, the Great Khan won't ignore it, right?" Yi Lie asked timidly and carefully.

"Far water can't quench the thirst of the near, even if the Great Khan learns of the defeat of our expedition to Qiongzhou at this time, it will take more than a month to send troops to help us at the earliest, but I am afraid that we will have already turned into dry bones by then!" Ulu said.

"Then what should I do, I can't get rid of that thief!" Yi Lie heard that the last glimmer of hope was also pinched, and said excitedly.

"How many soldiers do you have under your command?" Ulu asked quietly.

"There are still more than 6,000 people ......," Yi said timidly, but looking at the slightly sarcastic smile of the Ulu, he changed his mouth again, "but there can be 2,000 cronies who accompany me to the soup!" ”

"Well, I still have a thousand men available under my command, and at least two thousand troops available in one place." Ulu chuckled when he heard this, he knew very well that at the beginning of the battle, in order to break through Haitian Island as soon as possible, all the troops mobilized the elite troops with the Mongols and northerners as the main force, but it was difficult to succeed under many attacks, so he replaced the southerners and She soldiers to consume the opponent's troops, and then organized several attacks and ended in failure. Therefore, he still has reservations about Yi Li's words.

"Ulus, do you have any ideas?" Yi asked timidly.

"Deputy Marshal, I don't know if I have a plan?" The Ulu ignored Yi Lie and turned to the Oulu equator.

"Say it!" Oruchi looked at him and said.

"Deputy marshal, in my opinion, those She soldiers will definitely descend to the Song Dynasty, but they are just waiting for the opportunity." The Ulu said softly.

"Yes, they have suffered heavy casualties, and they are dissatisfied with our early life as a pioneer, and they have already separated from us." Oluchi nodded, agreeing.

"I want to secretly mobilize available troops to ambush behind them, and the Song army will definitely not let them land on Haitian Island, and will be sent to Xinbu Island for detention and screening first. We can follow them when they cross the sea and surrender, and take the opportunity to seize Xinbu Island, and the commander can quickly lead his army to the island. There is a walled city there, and there are fresh water, grain and grass, and military reserves, so we still have more than 10,000 troops available, and we will be able to hold out for a while and wait for the Great Khan to send troops to help, and we can still seize Qiongzhou as an internal defense. Ulu said.

"Good idea, I am also willing to be the forerunner and personally lead the troops to seize the camp!" When he heard this, he was like grasping a life-saving straw, and immediately spoke.

"Well, you can give it a try!" Oruchi groaned for a moment. However, I am not optimistic about this plan in my heart, now that the Baisha Navy has returned to Hong Kong, they can reinforce Xinbu Island at any time, and even if they take it, they can't hold it at all, and the success is very slim, but in order to stabilize the army's heart, I can only give it a try, and it can be regarded as the last struggle!

"Since the deputy marshal agrees, then we will gather our cronies separately and prepare to attack!" Ulu looked at it and said timidly.

"Well, I'll go get ready!" He also got up timidly and hurried away.

"Are you okay?" Seeing that Uru was not moving, Oluchi looked at him and asked suspiciously.

"Vice-marshal ......"

"You and I have been friends for many years, what is there to say?" Oluchi asked in a slow voice, looking at his slugging and spitting, and stopping to speak.

The lieutenant commander also knew very well that the attack was likely to be fruitless. But if we do nothing, we will no longer be able to give them hope. But I have a reluctant request, and I ask the deputy marshal to agree! Urus knelt down on one knee and spoke.

"Hurry up, I promise!" Oluchi was shocked when he saw this, and he understood that Ulu was going to fight to the death, and he was ready to give an account of what happened to him.

"Lieutenant Marshal, there is a Batu ship sunk on the beachhead over there, and the ship is intact, and it will be revealed when the tide recedes, and it can be used as long as the water is clean. I have secretly selected soldiers who are proficient in water, can handle boats and water, and are familiar with this sea area, and have prepared their food and drink. Ulu said softly, "After we start the attack, the Song army will be busy gathering the surrendered army and blocking the attack, and the Song army warships at sea are mostly docked, so the deputy marshal can take the opportunity to return by boat, but be sure to go east first, and then turn west, in case the enemy pursues." ”

"You want Ben Shuai to abandon the army and escape, you are not saving me, but harming me!" Hearing this, Oluchi raised his foot and kicked the Uru down and scolded.

"Deputy Marshal, I have no intention of trapping the deputy marshal in injustice, the current Du Shuai does not know whether he is alive or dead, and the Great Khan is thousands of miles away, only when the deputy marshal goes back can he organize the army and horses to come to the rescue, otherwise we will still be trapped on the island and die!" The Ulu crawled over and still knelt and spoke.

"This ...... There are no available troops along the coast of the south of the Yangtze River, how can they come to help! Oluchi sat down in a daze, knowing that he had found an excuse for himself that was difficult to refuse, and used his own death to cover him to break through, and his heart was both moved and powerless, and he said gloomily.

"Deputy Marshal, you are our hope, if you really can't come to help, you can tell the truth to the Great Khan. This matter is all because Ali Hague did not listen to the advice, and his wanton behavior led to the annihilation of the 100,000-strong army of Qiong, thinking that we were avenging, and please take care of our family! Ulu choked up.

"Okay, Ben Shuai agreed, please get up!" Olu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, picked up Ulu and hugged him tightly......

Zhao Yu drove back to the city after the war was basically over, and he fell asleep on the boat without sleeping for a day and a night, and Ni Liang carried him to the dormitory. He didn't wake up until the next day, but he still felt dizzy, and he seemed to hear constant explosions in his dreams, but he was so tired that he really thought that he was thinking about it day and night.

"Official, Gao Shilang is already waiting outside!" Seeing that Zhao Yu was awake, Wang De opened the curtain and said.

"Oh, why isn't it called me?" Zhao Hao rubbed his eyes and hurriedly sat up and said.

"The official family is so tired, I didn't wake up in the middle of the night when the cannon rang out yesterday, and I wanted to let the official family sleep a little longer." Wang De hurriedly helped His Majesty out of bed, put on his clothes and said with a smile.

"It was really a cannon last night, I thought it was a dream, what happened?" Zhao Yu put on his shoes and asked anxiously.

"Official, the little ones just heard that the Tartars who were surrounded on Baisha Island wanted to escape, and our armies fired artillery to stop them, and the little ones didn't know the details." Wang De replied, and asked someone to serve His Majesty to congratulate, wash, and change clothes.

Zhao Yu was anxious to know what happened last night, and he didn't care about breakfast, grabbed two pieces of dim sum and ate while walking, and went to the Qinzheng Hall to summon Gao Yingsong. After he arrived, Gao Yingsong immediately presented the latest battle report, and he took a look to know what happened after he returned to the palace.

It turned out that after the low tide, the She soldiers took advantage of the darkness of the night to venture across the sea to ask for surrender, and when Zhao Mengjin's command post built a bridge to pick them up on the island, suddenly an enemy soldier took the opportunity to storm Xinbu Island, and the enemy's offensive was even more fierce than the day before, and they took advantage of the chaos to go to the island to seize the siege. Zhao Mengjin led the army to fight, and with the reinforcement of the naval army, he killed all the enemies, and waved his troops to attack Baisha Island. The enemy's deputy marshal Oluchi committed suicide after our army attacked the island, and in this battle he killed more than 3,000 people of the Yuan army under the enemy of Wanhu Ulu and also cowardly, recruited more than 5,000 She soldiers, and more than 10,000 remnants of the Yuan army surrendered.

Zhao Yu immediately ordered that the captured enemy troops should be evacuated, the wounded should be treated, and the dead should be buried. And the corpses of Oluchi and several leading soldiers were well collected, and a ship was sent to escort them back to Leizhou with their cronies. At the same time, the military department immediately sent personnel to Haikou to verify casualties, verify military merits, and capture; The household department was ordered to send the dead to the cemetery for burial, verify the bereaved families, and distribute bereavement benefits; Ordered coastal prefectures and counties to strengthen searches to prevent the scattered enemy soldiers from mixing into Qiongzhou to take refuge.

"Alas, Kublai Khan still has important ministers and generals who died for him, and the Great Song Dynasty is dead, but how many people are willing to die for her?" After dealing with the urgent military affairs, Zhao Hao suddenly had a feeling of helplessness......
