In the past 20 days, the New Year has passed.
Calm gradually returned to Leizhou Prefecture, but the massacre in Suixi County continued to ferment, and everyone was in danger. Countless people in the people, rivers and lakes denounced the heinous thief Murong Chuan, but this is naturally useless, and he can't scold Murong Chuan to death.
Zhao Dongting took Liu Hongyi as his commander, and nearly 30,000 soldiers of the Huanglong Forbidden Army pretended to be refugees and went to Qiongzhou in batches.
Just a few days ago, the two masters who had been arranged by Li Yuanxiu to keep an eye on the pirates came back to report that there were really more than 30,000 Yuan troops who had traveled from Guangxi to the sea off Leizhou along the sea route, and were now stationed on the island of those pirates.
The actions of the Yuan army were no different from what the young man in sackcloth expected.
Their intentions can be imagined.
At this time, there were many soldiers and generals in Leizhou, and the Yuan army was only more than 30,000 people, even if they integrated the tens of thousands of pirates in the open sea, it was impossible to have the ability to break through Leizhou. And in addition to Leizhou, they can only capture the Qiongzhou next to them, which even Zhao Dongting can see.
At the same time, this made him admire the young man in sackcloth.
The young man in Mai has been living in the Zhizhou Mansion these days, and Zhao Dongting has seen it, and his room is full of piled up military books.
Such a person can only talk on paper, and there is definitely a basis for him.
Thinking that Murong Chuan might lead pirates to attack Qiongzhou, Zhao Dongting had an irrepressible impulse in his heart.
He really wanted to see Murong Chuan die with his own eyes.
To say that after coming to the Southern Song Dynasty, the person Zhao Dongting hated the most was not Ge Lijun, but Murong Chuan and Murong Hao, the father and son, especially the sinister and cunning Murong Chuan. Yang Yidong died because of them, Xiaojin died because of them, and even Li Yuanxiu died because of them.
It just so happened that there was nothing going on in the court at this time, all the ministries and departments were operating normally, and Zhao Dongting, the emperor, was also a little idle.
Simply, he gave an order, handed over all the military and political affairs of the DPRK and China to Lu Xiufu and Su Liuyi, and took Zhao Da and Zhao Hu's brothers, as well as Yue Peng and the Eight Hundred Flying Dragon Army, to Leizhou. Although Lu Xiufu tried his best to stop them, they couldn't stop them.
The two daughters, Le Wu and Yunjin, were also resentful of Murong Chuan, one coquettish and the other begging, and they also followed Zhao Dongting's side.
Ying'er has to take care of Zhao Dongting's diet and daily life, so naturally she will follow.
Zhao Dongting couldn't stop sighing, in fact, it was quite cool to be an emperor. It's a pity that Le Chan is not around.
For him, Le Chan is like his first love, always unforgettable.
At the same time, Zhao Dongting also brought ten grenadiers and hundreds of shells that had been made by the weapons workshop in a hurry these days.
The group also turned into refugees, put all the banners and blades on their horses, and rushed from Haikang County to the Leiqiong ferry to Qiongzhou through the avenue, and then rented a boat and went to Qiongzhou.
A messenger had already informed Liu Hongyi of Leizhou in advance, and at night, Liu Hongyi took Zhao and Luo, the pacification envoy of Qiongzhou, to meet Zhao Dongting at the ferry.
In order to avoid being discovered by the Yuan army, the two only brought dozens of personal soldiers and wore civilian clothes.
As soon as Zhao Dongting arrived, everyone fell to their knees.
Zhao Dongting asked them to get up, and then took advantage of the night, nearly 1,000 people hurried to Qiongshan County, Qiongzhou, and stopped in a village.
The villagers who originally lived in this village had already been quietly relocated, and now it is actually a camp for the Huanglong Forbidden Army.
There are several such villages in the vicinity.
As soon as he arrived in the house, Zhao and Luo knelt on the ground again, "Qiongzhou appeases Zhao and Luo to see the saint!" ”
He was originally a Beijing official, and was later specially sent to preside over the military administration of Qiongzhou, pacify the rebellious people, not only to pacify the envoy, but also to serve as the governor of Qiongzhou, which is similar to the previous Ge Lijun. However, unlike Ge Lijun, he is related to the Empress Dowager Xie, and he is a relative and loyal to the Southern Song court.
At this time, Zhao Youluo was nearly forty years old, quite elegant, with a slight beard and a scar on the left side of his face.
The scar left a pale white mark on his face, but it was left from his previous battle with the rebels.
Zhao Dongting helped him up, "Lord Zhao, please get up." ”
Zhao Heluo looked at Zhao Dongting, he had heard about what Zhao Dongting did in Jiezhou and Leizhou in Qiongzhou, and now he saw that although the emperor was young, he was really heroic, confident and calm, and his heart was naturally a little excited.
When he was young, he could have such a demeanor, and he was definitely not human, and he couldn't help but say in his heart: "The emperor really has the appearance of a heavenly man." ”
Not to mention, after Zhao Dongting's body recovered, his eyebrows were clear and his eyes were beautiful, and the light in his eyes was condensed, and he was indeed extremely handsome.
After the monarchs and ministers sat down, Zhao Dongting spoke up again, "Lord Zhao, what is the situation in Qiongzhou now?" ”
The young man in Mai next to him sat on the ground, frowning and thinking deeply, no one paid attention to him, and he didn't even look at Zhao and Luo a few times.
Zhao and Luohu looked at the young man in Mai suspiciously, and then said: "Back to the emperor, now I have a total of more than 80,000 troops in Qiongzhou, including 20,000 defenders, and 5,000 each in Chengmai, Wenchang, Lingao, and Lehui, so as to prevent the people from causing trouble." The remaining 60,000 troops and horses are all stationed in Qiongshan County and Thanksgiving and Yingtian, which are ready for the emperor to dispatch at any time! ”
Although it belongs to the same state, Qiongzhou has five counties, and its territory is larger than that of Leizhou, and it has to deal with the rebellious people, so the military strength is naturally not comparable to the original Leizhou.
Zhao Dongting nodded lightly, there are 60,000 military horses in Qiongzhou, and 30,000 in the Huanglong forbidden army, a total of 90,000 people, it should be enough to swallow the pirates and those Yuan troops.
"The 90,000 soldiers are divided into three routes, the 30,000 Huanglong Forbidden Army and the 20,000 Qiongzhou Army are ambushed along the west coast of the Qiongzhou Mansion, and the other 20,000 Qiongzhou troops are equipped with warships, just waiting for all the enemy troops to enter the bay and immediately cut off their rear routes. The remaining 20,000 Qiongzhou troops were deployed in various places on the south and east shores of the bay to prevent the enemy from landing on the island and escaping, and this battle would inevitably annihilate all the enemy troops! ”
The young man in Mai, who was sitting on the ground, spoke coldly.
Zhao Youluo's face turned strange, "Your Majesty, who is this?" ”
The young man in Mai looks too unusual.
Zhao Dongting didn't know how to explain it to him, so he waved his hand and said, "You have the right to be my military advisor." ”
Then he also looked at the young man in Mai and said, "How can you conclude that the enemy army will attack from Puqian Bay?" ”
Puqian Bay is a bay next to the Qiongzhou Mansion, and the sea water extends into it very deeply.
The Mai young man said confidently: "If they want to occupy Qiongzhou at a rapid pace, they will inevitably have to go straight to Huanglong, and landing from Puqian Bay is the fastest shortcut!" ”
Zhao Dongting groaned a little when he heard this, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Lord Zhao and Liu Hongyi, then you two will arrange it like this!" ”
There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need for suspicious people. The movements of the Yuan army were all calculated by this young man in sackcloth, and Zhao Dongting didn't mind listening to him anymore.
If the whole battle situation really develops as he expected, then he can be said to have picked up a treasure. This guy is definitely a tactician.
Zhao Youluo hesitated a little when he heard this: "Your Majesty, our army has deployed troops like this, and the Yuan army will definitely find out, and I am afraid that it will adjust its strategy when the time comes!" ”
"Huh."
The young man in Mai showed contempt, "How can the Yuan army attack hastily, I expect that before they attack, they will definitely incite the rebellious people to attack all parts of Qiongzhou, we only wait for the rebellious people to make chaos and then dispatch troops, and at the same time order the soldiers from all over the country to strictly guard the sea line, no one is allowed to go out of the island, even if the Yuan army wants to go out of the island, they have to go around to the territory of the rebellious people, and it is too late to report to the enemy, and it will be difficult for them to change their policy at that time." As long as the people are in turmoil, they will inevitably have to march from Puqian Bay according to the plan. ”
Zhao Youluo stared, thinking that he was the dignified Qiongzhou pacification envoy, but he was despised by this little young man, but he was angry, but he didn't know how to refute it.
"Good!"
Zhao Dongting said loudly: "Lord Zhao, then you secretly order all counties and armies to prepare to prevent the invasion of the chaotic people." ”
Zhao and Luo had no choice but to give up, "Ministers Zhao and Luo take orders!" ”
The young man in Mai frowned again and thought deeply.
In just the past two days, those chaotic people in Qiongzhou who were unwilling to obey the orders of the Southern Song Dynasty court really suddenly launched a fierce attack on the three counties of Lehui, Lingao, and Chengmai. It is said that they are rebellious people, but in fact, they are the natives who originally lived in Qiongzhou, and now they still occupy half of the country in Qiongzhou and fight against the Southern Song Dynasty army.
The flames of war spread throughout Qiongzhou in an instant.
Fortunately, all counties have received dense forests and are ready to fight, and it is even more difficult for the rebels to break through the county seat.
Zhao Dongting got the news in the village and immediately ordered Liu Hongyi and Zhao Youluo to lead the army to set off. He himself led the Flying Dragon Army to follow Liu Hongyi to the coast of Puqian Bay in the territory of Qiongzhou Mansion.
There were only ten grenadiers, all of which he was equipped for use in the Flying Army.
Two more days.
The day and night were dark, and the sea breeze was howling. Even if Puqian Bay goes deep inland, the sea is still rough.
The armies of Zhao Dongting and Liu Hongyi were stationed in the woods just a few miles from the sea.
Suddenly, a scout who was standing guard on the coast hurried to the handsome camp to report, "Your Majesty, General Liu, the enemy's big ship has arrived in Puqian Bay!" ”
"Good!"
Zhao Dongting's face became a little excited, "Let the three armies not move for the time being, and let all their warships enter Puqian Bay!" ”
In the past two days, the counties and the rebel army have suffered a lot of losses, and now, it is finally time to close the net.
Next to him, the expression of the young man in Mai was also a little solemn.
