At that time, Zhou Wangji, in the palace of Qinzheng, the lights were bright

"Report ---- Chang Wang's army attacked Haizhou, the army in Haizhou City was empty, and the city was broken!" "Report---- Mongol Khan's army attacked Fengning, the defenders of Fengning were defeated, and the city was broken!" "Report that ---- Feng Town has been captured." The Emperor looked at the map intently, without saying a word, and without looking at the military situation, he raised his head and looked around the room full of ministers. "Where is Xu Shu?" "Xu Shu galloped to the aid of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the Kulun Banner, broke through the enemy blockade, and returned to the dynasty with His Royal Highness the Prince." "Where is the British duke?" "Your Majesty, the British Duke is already outside the door." "Xuan."

The emperor got up from the dragon chair, walked up to the old man, and held his trembling hand, "Uncle, the prince is rash against the enemy, and the defenders can't rush to help, how to save the situation, uncle teach me." The old man looked up at him, "Picture." An attendant brought a map, and the old man looked at it carefully and squeezed the emperor's hand suddenly.

"Your Majesty, the Mongols are lacking, at this time they actually raised 500,000 to attack, the old minister must be the power of the whole country, and there are contradictions between the various tribes, and there are still nobles who compete for resources and are content with pleasure, please let your Majesty let people run around and break up their alliance, Zhangjiakou General Qin Qi is a loyal and brave general, Your Majesty can trust him as much as possible..." My uncle has fainted, come and heal! The imperial doctor ordered hurriedly came over to administer the needle, took his pulse, probed his snort, and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, the British Duke has reached the limit and there is no power to return to heaven!" Your Majesty's forgiveness, Your Majesty. "Can my uncle still wake up?" "Wechen is not very sure." "Give it a try."

At that time, the British Duke woke up, he seemed to be very energetic, and the emperor always stayed by his side, "Uncle taught me." The eyes of the British Duke flickered slightly, and the emperor immediately shielded the left and right, "Your Majesty, Mongolia will devote all its strength to attack this war." The old minister thought that the general army of Chengde in Zhangjiakou near Gyeonggi should be ordered to actively respond to the enemy and not let them enter the pass, and the eastern front of Shenyang Changchun sent troops to take Horqin, which could relieve the siege of the prince, and the western front army took advantage of the victory to pursue and attack Shangdu, Huade, and pointed directly at Shangdu, and between the hasty dispatch of troops, the barbarians could not hold out for long. The emperor nodded again and again, and the British duke said, "This battle can be won, but I can't fight again in the Great Zhou, I should immediately negotiate peace, recuperate, I have Japan in the east, Dali in the south, India, and Tibet in the west, all of them are not good at stubble, they are all eyeing me, and they can't abandon the country because of a momentary will!" ”

"Uncle, go north, the supply of grain, grass and ammunition is not enough, the north is cold, and the soldiers are not ready to distribute winter clothes, so they can't run day and night." The British Duke looked at him and slowly stood up, "Your Majesty, the old minister has the honor to fight with the first emperor in the east and west, leveling the four provinces, and widely instructing, the country and the dynasty are fighting, and there is no reason to be afraid of losing, and there is no precedent for the prince of the country to conquer in person, so he can only fight to the death to defend the dignity of our country." "The candle flame flickered, and the shadow of the old minister on the wall staggered a little." How can you say that you have no clothes? How can you say that you have no clothes? Be with the son, repair my spear, and have the same enmity with the son! ”

British duke, an old minister of the two dynasties, killed

Outside the city of Kulen Banner, the Mongol army pressed the border

Xu Shu and the prince stood on top of the city tower, and the prince said: "It seems that we can't get out, Jinzhou, Huludao reinforcements should also arrive." "Your Highness, now it seems that Haizhou has been lost, and we can only defend the lonely city to fight to the end." There was a hint of panic in the prince's eyes, "You mean, we can't get out." If you insist on breaking through, what are the odds of winning? "Now we have been holding on for a month, there are still two months of grain and grass, the enemy army is pouring out, our army is mainly infantry, forcibly breaking through, I am afraid that there is only one chance of victory, and the corpses are all over the field, the country will also be greatly injured, and there is no battle in a hundred years of civil war."

"So what about sitting here and waiting to die?" "Your Highness, if you hold on for four months, Mongolia will inevitably withdraw its troops." "If there is not enough food and grass, how can you keep it for four months?" "We need to work together, reduce food and clothing, and Your Highness will personally enter the barracks to work the army, boost morale, and appease the morale of the army." "Okay." Xu Shu returned to the camp and asked his soldiers, "Where is Xu Yuan?" The three major battalions were all wiped out, and he could be among them? "General, the major general was incorporated into the infantry formation before the start of the war and is still alive." "Bring him to me."

Xu Yuan was still standing guard at the east gate, watching the Mongolian flag flying in the wind. He was thinking, if Wu Sai is in it, I must kill him and avenge Meng Jia. Before he was thinking about it, he was replaced, leaning against the cubicle where he changed guards, his eyes were full of what Meng Jia looked like when he died. Xu Yuanzheng was irritable, and saw his father's personal soldiers, and his father actually came to Kulunqi, he stood up and walked towards his personal soldiers.

In the tent, Xu Shu looked at his son unscathed, and he was indescribably excited in his heart, but he didn't show anything on his lips, "Haizhou has been captured by Mongolia, and the Kulun Banner is already a lonely city, so you can stay in my account, send military orders, and dispatch at any time." "Father, what happened to Mother?" Xu Yuan was a little anxious, the Mongols were going to slaughter a city when they captured it, and now there is no news of his mother in Haizhou City..."There is no news from your mother's side for the time being, don't worry too much, your mother has been born and died with me for so many years, and she has much more experience in fighting the enemy than you." Xu Shu looked at his son, "You are dark and strong, and you look a little taller than the last time I saw you... As my son, I did not transfer you into the account before the battle, not to bend the law for personal gain and take care of your life, but if the country is not a country, what is the life of an individual husband? I called you here so that you can go into battle with me to kill the enemy, rush to the front line in everything, and be a good example for the soldiers, this battle was fought in a mess, and many people died in a mess, but the military spirit cannot be lost, are you willing to charge into battle with your father and rush to kill in the most dangerous place? "The last general, Xu Yuan, took the order."

Xu Shu nodded with satisfaction, then looked at the map again, stopped talking, and only waited for the decisive battle with Mongolia.

Chifeng, the Mongolian camp, in the military tent

There are Mongolian soldiers everywhere, heavily guarded, "Great Khan, my brother thinks that he should negotiate peace with the Zhou Dynasty, after these two wars, although my Mongolia has conquered the city, but it is also a tragic victory, not to mention that we lack food and grass, and if we continue to fight, Mongolia will not be able to support it!" "Great Khan, the minister thinks that the Horqin grassland can not be lost, and Haizhou and other places are not rich, and they are not easy to manage inland, so they should be abandoned and negotiate peace with the Zhou Dynasty.

The Great Khan looked around at his courtiers and said, "This battle is an undeclared war of the Zhou Dynasty, seizing my city, killing my people, destroying my fortress, how can the descendants of the Golden Family sit back and wait for death, let others bully and suppress it?" A month ago, Zhou Guoshang made an appointment to meet with our envoys, and asked me Mongolia to cut off the emperor's title and bow down to the ministers, what do you think, now you are thinking about your flock, but do you know that the soldiers and civilians of the Kulun Banner have returned to the Immortal Heaven, and the Han people hung their heads on the city gate tower, this dead and wounded soldier is not my Mongolian man, is it not your people, today they can bully King Chang like this, tomorrow they can bully you like this! I see that you have been softened by their silk, and you have worn away your arrogance, and you have been bullied. From today onwards, there is no need to talk about peace, no peace! ”

The other princes and bezsons all turned to leave, but King Huai was a step slower than them, and only after they were all gone, did he say: "Great Khan, the courtiers have a plan, but they can retreat from the soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty, and my king does not have to give up the cattle and sheep in the pasture." ”
