Although there are mountain mines as traps, it is not enough to have traps without bait.
Even animals know that there is a trap in front of them, and they will not be stupid to step on them.
Zhao Dongting sat on the dragon couch and asked, "The Yuan thief has attacked in a hurry, and he is bound to test our army, you Aiqing...... Who would dare to attract the Yuan army? ”
Ancient people also had a lot of knowledge in war, and they didn't rush forward stupidly when they went to the battlefield. Zhao Dongting didn't think that those Yuan troops would stupidly rush to the mountain and the palace. If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have toiled to survey the terrain everywhere.
His voice was heavy when he said this, for it must have been a very dangerous task. The Yuan army is strong, and it is likely that it will not be able to come back after rushing out.
The ministers also knew that they were silent for a while.
More than ten seconds later, Yue Peng came out of the crowd and said, "Your Majesty, the last general is willing to go!" Swear to the death to attract the Yuan army to Hulugou! ”
Hulugou is a ground on the island of Jiezhou, where there is a canyon. The valley is covered with barren grass several feet high, and is flanked by towering mountains.
After the discussion of everyone, Hulugou is one of the most suitable places to bury mines. Therefore, there are countless mines buried in the gourd ditch.
Zhao Dongting looked at Yue Peng, his heart was full of reluctance. This Manchu Dynasty civil and military, his favorite is Yue Peng.
But he knew that now was also an opportunity for Yue Peng. Although he is a guard infantry officer, he has no merits and is inevitably criticized.
This risk, Yue Peng must take it.
Just as he was about to speak, Su Quandang actually stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the last general is also willing to go!" Lead a road of military horses to attract the Yuan army to Huanglongling. ”
Huanglongling is a new place name after Zhao Dongting promoted Qizhou Island to Xianglong County, near the beach where Xiaojin was first discovered. Huanglongling is not high, but it is full of gravel and lush trees for concealment. Zhao Dongting sent people to bury countless mines there, as long as the Yuan army arrived, those mines were estimated to be able to shake the entire Huanglongling in an instant.
"Good!"
Zhao Dongting walked quickly in front of Yue Peng and Su Quandang, "Just wait for the Yuan army to be destroyed, I will give you two the first credit!" ”
He was reluctant to let the child trap and not find the wolf, he knew that now was not the time for a woman's kindness. Yue Peng is brave, Su Quan is strategic, and the two may not die.
Immediately, Zhao Dongting gave the order.
"Yue Peng, Su Quandang obey orders!"
"The last general!"
"I will give each of you 5,000 elite soldiers, and if you fight and retreat, it is bound to lead the Yuan army to Hulugou and Huanglongling!"
"The last general commands!"
"Zhang Shijie, Dongheli obey orders!"
"The minister is here! The end will be! ”
"The two of you led an army of 4,000 to guard the palace! Don't let the Yuan army step on the palace half a step! ”
"The minister, the last general commands!"
The two of them are in charge of the front of the palace, Zhang Shijie is experienced, and Dongheli is good at defending the city, so he can be regarded as the best partner.
"Zhang Shijie obeys orders!"
"The minister is here!"
"You command in the center and command the whole army!"
Zhang Shijie was stunned when he heard this, "What about you, the emperor?" ”
Zhao Dongting said: "I'm not good at fighting, just watch from the sidelines." ”
Zhang Shijie admired a little in his heart, and nodded yes. He naturally didn't know that Zhao Dongting had other plans in his heart.
Yue Peng and Su Quandang may not be able to attract the Yuan army, but he, the emperor, can definitely make Zhang Hongfan see the rabbit and scatter the eagle.
For the rest of the details, Zhao Dongting did not give any more orders, so he asked the ministers to prepare for the door.
He is a man, not a god, and it is impossible to mobilize more than 20,000 soldiers on the entire island of Qizhou like an arm. What he can do is to deploy the general idea of war. As for when the Yuan army will attack, when to advance, when to retreat, when to pull rays, and when to fight to the death, in addition to Zhang Shijie's central command, it is also necessary for the commanders to respond to the situation.
As a king, Zhao Dongting could never go to pull the thunder in person, and he couldn't control so many thunders at the same time.
The king commands the commander, the commander commands the general, and the commander commands the pawn. Don't say that in ancient times, even in modern warfare, the same is true.
Even Zhuge Liang, who is like a god, has to rely on the generals below.
The Song Dynasty was weak, and Zhao Dongting was willing to give these generals a chance to exercise. If he is defeated, it will be death at most, he can come to the Song Dynasty, this life is equivalent to picking it up, these days, he is already mentally prepared.
In the following nights, no one on the island slept too peacefully, and it seemed that even the air was floating with a thick smell of slaughter.
Zhao Dongting pondered his own war strategy over and over again, but did not find anything missing.
He's done everything he can. If this is still defeated, it can only be said that it is providence.
The people on Qizhou Island have all been evacuated, and the remaining civilian, military and military generals and their families have all gathered in the palace.
In the middle of the day and night, a raging flame suddenly burned at the highest peak of Jiezhou Island.
The Yuan army is finally here.
This bonfire is a signal for the lookout.
For a time, the desolate horn sounded everywhere on the island.
The guards outside Zhao Dongting's gate exclaimed: "Your Majesty, the bonfire is lit!" ”
Zhao Dongting jumped up from the bed, listened to the sound of the horn, and ran outside with his clothes on.
Li Yuanxiu hurriedly followed.
These days, he was worried that the Yuan army would send a master to sneak attack, and he slept in Zhao Dongting's house.
Run to the edge of the cliff.
Zhao Dongting took a look with a telescope, and saw that the dense warships of the Yuan army in the night were mighty, riding the wind and waves and surging towards Qizhou Island.
The time for the survival of the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty has arrived.
Many people ran out of the palace and watched from the cliffside to the sea. It's just that the night is dark, and they don't have binoculars, but they can't see clearly.
Zhao Dongting stood at the front, his face was solemn, and he did not speak.
Looking at the warships of the Yuan army, there must be hundreds of them, and it is obvious that they are coming.
I had never seen such a scene before, Zhao Dongting just thought about it in his head, and he didn't feel how shocking. Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I have found that the army of tens of thousands of people can really make people fearful. The mighty momentum came like a dark cloud.
"Black clouds crush the city...... The city wants to be destroyed......"
Zhao Dongting held the binoculars and stared at the warships of the Yuan army, not moving.
Not long after, Concubine Yang Shu also came over, feeling sorry for her son, and hurriedly went back to pick up the big coat for Zhao Dongting to put on.
In less than two quarters of an hour, the warships of the Yuan army stopped off the coast of Jiezhou Island. Their warships were well aligned and apparently well-trained.
But they didn't attack right away.
The Yuan army was on the deck of the marshal ship, with many guards, and two men were sitting and drinking together.
The man on the left has a long beard and chest, thick eyebrows and big eyes, extraordinary appearance, and great majesty. It was Zhang Hongfan, the commander of the Yuan Army.
The person sitting with him was bloated, his face was white, but there was a glimmer in his eyes, it was Deputy Marshal Li Heng.
The big war is imminent, but the two are calm and calm, talking and laughing.
Neither of them can be regarded as real Yuan Dynasty people, and their relationship in the court is also extremely good.
Emperor Kublai Khan of the Yuan Dynasty was famous for employing people without doubt, and he did not care to send this pair of private friends as the chief and deputy commanders respectively.
In this regard, there were many foreign generals and Southern Song generals in the Yuan court, and they were quite grateful to Kublai Khan. Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng are.
Zhang Hongfan raised his hand and pointed to Jiezhou Island and said to Li Heng: "Brother Li Heng, how long do we think we can capture this Jiezhou Island?" ”
Li Heng said with a smile: "Emperor Xiao'er of the Southern Song Dynasty has only 20,000 troops and horses around him, even if he resists stubbornly, he can't resist our army for more than two days." ”
Zhang Hongfan sighed softly and said with interest: "Then how should our army be arranged?" ”
"Huh."
Li Heng picked up his wine glass and said, "Brother Hongfan, this is studying me, I must have a good plan in mind...... Will the siege be stopped? ”
Saying that, he also pointed to Qizhou Island, "The warships of the Song army are all on that side, but you chose to land on the island on this side, not to wipe out their last hope, I think it is to leave some hope in the hearts of those Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers." As long as we attack, they will not be able to resist it, and they will choose to board the ship and escape. When the time comes, we rely on the speed of the sea ship and can easily catch up, so that all the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty will lose their lives. ”
"Those who know me, Brother Li Heng......"
Zhang Hongfan sighed, raised his glass and clinked glasses with Li Heng, but said: "However, I don't plan to give them a chance to board the ship." ”
"Oh?"
Li Heng was slightly surprised.
Zhang Hongfan said proudly: "Our army has both land and water, and the soldiers who land on the island only need to restrain their tails when the Southern Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers fled, and then the warships will detour from here and attack from both sides." Brother Li Heng thought that Song Jun would still have the possibility of boarding the ship? ”
Li Heng arched his hand, "Brother Hongfan is clever, Li Heng is ashamed of himself, ......"
The two of them talked about military affairs while drinking like this, as if they didn't take the Southern Song Dynasty army to heart at all.
While the Southern Song army was extremely afraid of the Yuan army, this also led to the contempt of the Yuan Dynasty for the Southern Song army.
Until dawn, the Yuan army had not attacked. Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng, the two coaches, went back to sleep in the cabin.
On the cliffside, there are still ministers and nobles standing in the Southern Song Dynasty.
The banner of the Yuan army fluttered in the hazy morning light.
