Chapter 648: Unprecedented Battles
Once you set foot on the sea, it is difficult to receive the news, which is why Yang Lin is very relieved about the front line, otherwise, he will have to take the land route even if he is slower.
The long sea breeze urged the sails to move forward and overlook the sea, Yang Lin secretly calculated in his heart that the Great Song Dynasty of HNA was catching up with Chinese civilization.
Contrary to what most people think, the Han people have not been outstanding in HNAs.
The heroes of the Han people want to show their strength in the Central Plains rather than self-exile to the vast sea.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the sails were mastered by the Han people, and our Spring and Autumn era sails have been rampant in the Middle East, the so-called overseas exploration of the Wu Kingdom is also the old way of the predecessors, in addition to the Philippines and Taiwan, the Indians sailed from Egypt to Guangdong hundreds of years in advance.
The great cannibals of the Middle East and West Asia, in the Tang Dynasty, the navigation of the Han people was still lagging behind, and the Great Food could travel thousands of miles to attack Guangzhou, and the Tang Dynasty even went to Japan It was difficult and dangerous.
In terms of war, Da Shi crossed the sea three times to expedition to Junbao, with the largest number of troops of 200,000, and only tens of thousands of people crossed the Tang Peninsula.
After the Anshi Rebellion, the prosperous era was no longer there, and the prosperous era was destroyed, and a group of Hu merchants who were allowed to live in Guangzhou by the Tang Empire plundered Guangzhou.
"The Great Food and the Persian soldiers besieged the city, and the assassin Svelly saw that he abandoned the city and fled, and the soldiers of the two countries entered the city and plundered the warehouses, burned the houses, and then floated away by boat." That is, Guangzhou was briefly occupied by the Arabs, and then washed in blood, with countless dead and wounded.
And when Huang Chao rebelled, he slaughtered them all, and in Guangzhou alone, he killed 100,000 Christians in the Middle East and beyond.
Since ancient times, we have believed that the Central Plains is the middle of heaven and earth, and the orthodox Han elite has no long-distance feelings.
Now the Chenghai sailor even has to go to the Bohai Sea to learn other people's advanced technology, speaking of the Jin people's sailor ships, not necessarily much worse than the Great Song Dynasty.
Yang Lin is subtly changing this, and if he wants to completely reverse his concept, it is estimated that he still has to start with the Sleeve Building Chamber of Commerce.
At present, the policy priority may make up for this shortcoming.
A group of ships faintly appeared in the distance, Yang Lin took out a clairvoyant mirror, and saw that it was the flag of the Chenghai Division, so he was relieved.
When the ship approached, someone threw down a rope ladder, and several soldiers climbed up.
"Where's Shaozai?" As soon as the people came on the ship, they wanted to see Yang Lin, and everyone knew that there must be an urgent military situation, so they didn't dare to slack off at the moment and took him to the deck.
The person who came took out a secret letter from his bosom and said, "Shaozai, Han Shuai has a military report." ”
Lu Qian took it, opened the bamboo tube, took out the secret letter, and handed it to Yang Lin.
Yang Lin took a cursory look, stood up, and paced back and forth on the deck with his head down.
The Great Wall was drilled out so quickly, and Han Shizhong was so bold that he wanted them to put it in.
When he arrived at Tianjin Port, this Han Wu must have already started.
At this time, his mother did not hesitate to assign Chenghai Master to send a secret letter to Lao Tzu, and his thoughts were already revealed.
It's okay to win, but if you lose, you're waiting to wipe his ass...
Yang Lin was a little anxious in his heart, so he stopped the person who came and asked Youyan about the battle situation carefully.
Even the fastest ships take more than 30 days to reach the port of Tianjin.
Now that only ten days have passed, and for most of the next half month, Youyan is bound to be a bloody storm.
"Princes of the court, what are the arrangements?"
The person who came obviously knew the military situation, and hugged his fists and said: "Back to Shaozai, Taiwei Song sent 30,000 new troops from the Beijing camp to enter the Hebei Daimyo's Mansion. The governors of Hedong, Qinlong, and Shandong, the governors of the three provinces also mobilized all their forces and deployed defenses at critical roads. ”
Yang Lin nodded, these lines of defense are down, even if Youyan loses, there is still a chance to turn the tables.
Now that Han Wu has made up his mind, let him fight, I hope that when he arrives at Tianjin Port, he will receive a big gift, instead of slashing Han Wu with tears.
---
This is a big war, not only in terms of numbers, but also in terms of the entire border.
Youyan in the extreme east, and even on the banks of the Yalu River, there is a battle between Goryeo and Jurchen, which is regarded as the extreme east point of this battle.
And in the far west, on the desert, the largest and most serious civil war of the Mongols is coming.
Shuozhou, Yang Keshi turned his head and looked at the Northwest Army all over the mountains, with flags covering the sky, swords like forests, majestic and majestic.
Especially the cavalry, which is all the same, looks like a dragon and a tiger like a horse, and can't help but be ambitious.
Less than half of the Han Chinese in the Northwest Army were Uighurs, Dangxiang, and Tibetans.
This is the team that Song Jiang pulled up in the northwest, which once swept through the Western Regions, killing the Qarakhanid Empire, and on the Silk Road, there were many white bones in the wilderness. He also helped Yang Lin take Bianliang, brave and belligerent, and his combat power was good.
Yang Keshi, the leader, is the first fierce general in the Western Army, suppressing many heroes in the Western Army with a big gun, and there is no one who is unconvinced in martial arts.
Originally, Shuozhou was not the main battlefield, but now Hebul was named the king of Mongolia, gathered the soldiers and horses of the Mongolian tribes, and went south to help in the war.
The Kereh Department bordering it will definitely not give up its alliance with the Song people, and will send people for help early.
Yang Keshi of Shuozhou, personally led the army and prepared to support the Kereh Department.
In the Northwest Army, there were already tens of thousands of young and strong Kerees, and this time they went back to fight with the same enemy, and they were eager to fight with the soldiers and horses of the so-called Mongolian king immediately.
Let them know that the Kereh have never been afraid of the Tatars, they were not afraid before, they are not afraid now, and they will not be afraid in the future.
On the border, countless women, children and old people have driven their flocks to take refuge in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty.
In the battle on the grassland, this is rarely the case, the men die in battle, the women and the livestock, and the victor returns, this is the law of the jungle of the grassland.
The younger brother of the leader of the Kereh, Huerzha, came out from afar, saw Yang Keshi beat his chest, and said on the horse: "My brother, your arrival is like a spring rain that moistens this grassland, and your kindness will never be forgotten by the Kereh people." ”
Yang Keshi is very familiar with him, and the interactions between Shuozhou and Kereh are as frequent as visiting relatives in the same village. After a few words of greeting, he followed Kuerzha and led his troops to the front line.
The leader of Kereh would bring his whole family to the Great Song Dynasty from time to time to visit Shuozhou or Yinzhou. even once had a whim to go to Chang'an County, but was persuaded by Kuerza.
At that time, Hebul came to prominence, and after inheriting the strong strength of Haidu, he almost unified Moxi Tatar.
The Kerebu is a knot in his heart, this warlike tribe, since the Great Song Dynasty traded, gradually became richer, which made it more difficult for them to deal with.
Hebul dreamed of conquering the Kereh tribe, so that no one on the grassland would dare not obey his orders, and the scattered grassland tribes would also be unified for the first time.
The battle of Song and Jin served as the fuse that ignited this battle for the hegemony of the grassland, and behind the rivalry between the two powers was the shadow of Song Jin.
