In terms of the general trend, Zhao Hao thought that the Song Dynasty was born at an inopportune time, and it was the era when the northern nomads developed into a strong and export-oriented occupation of the North China Plain, and its militarized political-economic-social organization structure gave it the advantage of expanding aggression and seizing resources. After the death of Taizu www.biquge.info Taizong Zhao Kuangyi's two defeats in the Northern Expedition made him lose his enterprising spirit, and the military changed from offensive to defensive.

From the Northern Song Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty, from Zhao Guangyi's "Pingshu Wanquan Array" to the mountain cities all over Sichuan, the first reaction of the Song army when they saw the enemy seemed to be to build a city or something like that to hide in and hold on. Zhang Shijie thought of changing this tactic to naval warfare, which can be regarded as a subconscious idea. But he really didn't think that the whole country had been lost, only his lone army was left, the enemy blocked Haikou, and the whole army was trapped in an 'alley', what else did he guard, what did he wait? Wait for the enemy to retreat or die?

Zhao Yu thought that Zhang Shijie was waiting for this last moment. Hundreds of years of passive defense tradition and decades of repeated defeats have made the soldiers and civilians of the marching Korea no longer dare to imagine an attack or a victory. Although their own forces were no less than those of the enemy, they had completely lost the courage to attack. They were not even willing to continue to retreat, so they rejected Chen Yizhong's suggestion to retreat to Zhancheng and gave up Yamen Haikou, so the reason why he chose to do this was not for victory, but to find a vigorous ending for the Southern Song Dynasty.

Lu Xiufu's mood at the moment is also not much better, the grim situation, the struggle between the ministers, and the difficulty of recovering the country have exhausted him, and Zhao Yu has seen that he has been in extreme anxiety since he learned that the Yuan army is attacking him in a big way, and at this moment he probably thought of how to be generous and righteous. He had the courage to die for the country, but he never thought that he might win, maybe he didn't dare to think that he could win, and the act of committing suicide by carrying the emperor into the sea is an extreme manifestation of the mentality of 'waiting for death'.

In a word, although the Song army has not yet failed at this moment, Lu Xiufu's will is on the verge of collapse. If Zhang Shijie, as a military general, can still remain calm at the moment of crisis, Lu Xiufu, who is just a scholar and has long lived in despair, will collapse once he is greatly stimulated and embark on the road to becoming a benevolent. But probably they are already desperate for the future, and at this moment, all they have to think about in their hearts may be how to complete the last part of the road with dignity and spend the last time.

After Zhao Yu realized their thoughts, he would also think that if these more than 100,000 lives were to get rid of the idea of killing themselves, fight on the battlefield with enthusiasm, make a final fight with the Yuan army, and break the net, how many people would be able to survive the death battle. And those who survive this tragic battle experience will be able to establish an unyielding faith and make up their minds to fight the Mongols in the future. And as the so-called gentleman is not too late to take revenge for ten years, their behavior and mentality of committing suicide and martyrdom are certainly more in line with the orthodox Confucian culture advocating killing and becoming benevolent. But there was no Yue Wang Goujian lying down and trying the courage to force his husband to commit suicide, and the destruction of Wu and hegemony came quickly, and their death was also a grievance of death......

"Your Majesty, this is a draft, please take a look!" Zhao Yu was in a daze thinking about his thoughts, and Chen Renweng and a few people had already drawn up a battle plan and praised him.

"Well, I'll look at it first." Zhao Yu took it, looked at it and closed it again, and said, "This war is related to the fate of the Great Song Dynasty, and it must not be neglected, I am not able to pro-government now, I am afraid it will be difficult to get the support of the ministers, so we must have a backup plan, and from the most difficult consideration, we must think that we may have to fight alone." ”

"Please also make it clear to Your Majesty!" Chen Renweng was not surprised when he heard this, and he saluted.

"You also know that the military affairs of the DPRK and China are in the hands of Zhang Taifu, and there are tens of thousands of elite soldiers in his hands, so he has always acted arbitrarily. He was born in the infantry army, and he was not familiar with water warfare, and I was worried that he would repeat his old tricks and kill the dynasty. Zhao Yu looked at the sand table and said.

"Your Majesty is worried that Taifu Zhang will still respond to the enemy with iron cables during the Battle of Jiaoshan?" Han Zhen had already understood what His Majesty meant at this moment, the plan they had just made for a long time was the backup plan, and the main topic had just begun, but he also understood His Majesty's worries.

"Exactly!" Zhao Yu nodded, raised his feet, stood on the low stool, picked up the baton on the side, and drew a circle in the sea area inside the Doumen, and said with a sad face.

"I really should let him listen to His Majesty's lectures, knowing that Zhuge Kongming burned the battle of Chibi and wouldn't it be self-defeating to connect boats on the sea." Lin Zhiwu said half surprised and half angry.

"Such a formation is already defeated before the battle, Taifu will not be so confused for many years leading the troops, right?" Han Zhen couldn't help but take a breath, doing so was tantamount to giving up his superiority in strength and water warfare, and instead going to fight the 'city' battle with the Mongols, who were good at foot warfare. And to attack the enemy's strength with his own shortcomings is to commit a taboo in soldiers, he said with some disbelief.

"I hope that doesn't happen, but it could be worse than that!" Zhao Yu turned his face to look at Han Zhen and smiled bitterly.

"Worse than that?" Chen Renweng really couldn't think of anything worse than this, and said in surprise.

"Well, I'm worried that he will follow Han Xin's plan to fight against the enemy back then, cut off his own back road, burn down all the palaces and military camps on the island, and all the soldiers and civilians will board the ship to fight the enemy!" Zhao Yu nodded and said.

"Huh?! Isn't that any different from suicide? Cai Qiao exclaimed with wide open eyes.

"The mouth is so wide, I want to eat people!" Zhao Yu glanced at it, and the faces of several people were extremely ugly, and he pretended to stab Cai Qiao with his baton and said with a smile.

"Yes, this is just Your Majesty's speculation, you are making such a fuss, let others see it, don't you laugh at Your Majesty There is no one around." Cai Ruoshui patted him and said, and the others also laughed.

"I think you have forgotten, and what Your Majesty guessed was wrong again?" Cai Qiao opened his hand and asked unconvinced.

"This ......" Cai Ruoshui immediately froze with a smile on his face when he heard it, and several other people also looked at each other. They also realized that, as Cai Qiao said, His Majesty's prophecy had been verified every time, and there had not been a single deviation.

"I also hope that these worries are superfluous, but this war is a matter of life and death for the Great Song Dynasty, we can't be cautious, we must always make the most difficult plan and strive for a good result!" Zhao Yu was very dissatisfied with the appearance of several people, and knocked twice on the table with a baton...... (To be continued.) )
