In order to be able to reach Jiangning Mansion as soon as possible, Emperor Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty gave up the carriage and rode on horseback, and Zhao Xu, who was marching, suddenly frowned and said, "What sound?" ”

Zhao Xu said as he looked to the northwest, only to see a wall of water coming towards him, Zhao Xu stared in disbelief, and immediately ordered: "Hurry up, retreat to the east, withdraw to Zhongshan......"

"Your Majesty has an order, withdraw to Zhongshan, Your Majesty has an order, withdraw to Zhongshan......"

Because there were too many soldiers and horses in the Song army, Zhao Xu suddenly issued a military order, and all the Song soldiers did not react, but at this time Zhao Xu couldn't take care of so much, and fled to Zhongshan under the protection of more than 1,000 personal cavalry, and the Song soldiers who reacted also fled to Zhongshan, but it was too late, and the ruthless flood soon swallowed up the Song soldiers who did not come and fled, and finally followed Zhao Xu from Changzhou to Jiangning Mansion of 450,000 troops, only 150,000 climbed Zhongshan and survived.

However, Li Qing's water attack brought a heavy blow to the Great Song Dynasty, and the continuous flooding of the river completely submerged the fertile fields that were thousands of miles east of the Huaishui, that is to say, the last field of the entire Suhu Great Song Dynasty that was expected to be harvested next year was gone, and the grain stored in the Great Song treasury in Jiangning Mansion was also flooded.

After seeing the flood flooding Jiangning Mansion, Li Qing led his 40,000 elite horsemen to flee to the southwest immediately, originally Li Qing also planned to drive a boat to Jiangning Mansion after the flood peak passed, but when he saw the flood rolling south, Li Qing immediately gave up this idea, the flood finally did not break the dam of Huaishui, because it was the dry period of the flood did not have such a big impact, and only one day the flood returned to calm, a few days later the flood gradually receded, The Xia army dispatched a large number of warships loaded with sediment and sank directly at the mouth of the blown up embankment, and this time did not cause greater losses.

This time the Great Song Dynasty was really injured, Emperor Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty couldn't take care of the pursuit of Li Qing, and stayed in Jiangning Mansion to clean up these messes with peace of mind, and the Song army began to turn from offensive to defensive, and at the same time Zhao Xu ordered to transfer grain from the land of the two lakes and Sichuan and Shu to come to the disaster relief, and at the same time ordered Wu Jie, who was attacking Hanzhong, to stop the offensive and retreat to Jiange Pass to defend to ensure the stability of Sichuan and Shu, and prevent the Xia army from taking advantage of the situation to attack Sichuan and Shu.

Besides, after Li Qing flooded Jiangning Mansion, Li Qing led 40,000 Xia army iron cavalry, entered Taiping Prefecture and bypassed the west bank of Danyang Lake into Xuanzhou, and then crossed the river in Shuiyang Town and went straight to Jianping through the south bank of Gucheng Lake, the Xia army did not attack Jianping but bypassed Jianping and went straight to Guangde City in the southeast, at this time the Guangde army had left Guangde City to the east to prepare to recover Huzhou, because Zhao Ge missed the opportunity before, so that the Song army gathered more than 100,000 troops in Guangde, facing the large number of Song troops in Zhao Ge can only fight and retreat, The 10,000 Japanese soldiers under Zhao Ge had already suffered heavy losses, and the Song army was approaching the city of Huzhou.

But the good fortune of the Song army ended here, Li Qing led 40,000 iron cavalry to attack the Guangde army from the rear, giving the Song army a two-sided attack, facing the charge of 40,000 Xia army iron cavalry, the Guangde army soon collapsed, the Xia army chased and killed more than 100,000 Guangde troops in one day and one night, and finally only more than 10,000 people escaped, and the rest were all killed by the Xia army, so that the only army that the Song army could pose a big threat to the Xia army was also finished.

In the next large period of time, the Xia army began to carry out a crazy sweep, the Xia army in the Taihu Lake area that the Xia army did not reach was swept over and over again, facing the Xia army's butcher's knife, the people moved north to seek the protection of the Song army; Li Qing handed over all the troops to Commander Zhao Ge, and led more than 100 cavalry to Hangzhou City.

Zhou Tao personally led the generals of the Xia Army stationed in Hangzhou out of the city to greet him, and after Zhou Tao saw Li Qing, he immediately knelt down and said: "The last general Zhou Tao visited the prince." ”

"See the prince." And all the generals also bowed down.

"Rise up, generals!" Li Qing said with a smile.

Surrounded by everyone, Li Qing entered the city of Hangzhou, Zhou Tao set up a reception banquet for Li Qing that day, the long-term battle made Li Qing's nerves tense, today can finally relax a little, Li Qing was drunk that night, Li Qing was drunk for a long time, Li Qing, who was not close to the female color for a long time, looked at the dancing dancer after being drunk, and was satisfied.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Qing summoned Zhou Tao in the study and said: "General Zhou has performed well during this time, and after the class teacher, this king will ask his father to celebrate the three of you." ”

Zhou Tao was overjoyed and thanked: "Thank you for the cultivation of the prince, and the last general will swear to serve the prince to the death." ”

"Zhou Tao: How many warships do you have in your hands now?" Li Qing asked suddenly.

"Lord Yu, there are still a hundred warships."

"This king gives you five thousand elites, do you dare to take these people to sweep the southeast coast of the Great Song Dynasty." Li Qing asked Zhou Tao.

"As long as the prince gives the order, the last general can go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire."

"That's good, you can lead five thousand elite eighty warships to the south, remember not to go deep into the hinterland of the Great Song Dynasty, this time your task is to grab sea ships for this king, how many to grab, now our sea ships are still too few."

"Yes, the last general ...... order"

On the other side of Yushan Island, the mouth of the Yangtze River, Feng Frame has been holding on to Yushan Island after getting reinforcements, when Feng Frame got the information that the Song Army suddenly gave up Dongsha Island and Xisha Island and withdrew westward, Feng Frame was very strange at first, but when he learned that Li Qing led the army to flood Jiangning Mansion, Feng Frame immediately led the army to the west to eliminate all the soldiers and horses left by the Song Army on the two islands, and captured the two islands to block the mouth of the Yangtze River.

Although Li Bao had the intention to go east to attack Feng Frame's sailors, but Zhao Xu, who had been frightened, only ordered Li Bao to lead the sailors to hold the Jiangyin camp, this time the losses of the Song army's sailors in the first battle of Jiangning were also very large, and the sailors and warships that were originally docked on the north bank of the Yangtze River, due to the sudden change in the current, many warships were swept away by the current, and about 300 warships were lost, and nearly 40,000 sailors were lost, and the vitality of the Jiangnan sailors of the Song army was greatly damaged.

Subsequently, Feng Frame led the sailors to the north along the coast, swept the seaports along the coast of the Great Song Dynasty and grabbed the sea ships, but there were not many seaports in the north of the Great Song Dynasty, so there were not many warships plundered; Turning his head and looking at Zhou Tao successively led the army to attack Taizhou, Wenzhou, Fuzhou, Quanzhou, Zhangzhou and other places, especially Fuzhou and Quanzhou, which are important seaports in the Great Song Dynasty, there are thousands of sea ships, Zhou Tao plundered nearly 10,000 sea ships along the way, and they are all large sea ships.

Thanks to the Xia army's achievements in the south of the Yangtze River, the Song army basically retreated in the city wherever Zhou Tao passed, abandoning the coastal ports, so Zhou Tao basically did not encounter any resistance along the way; The huge harvest brought sufficient capacity and wealth to the Xia army, many of these ships were not empty, they were full of goods, Zhou Tao classified this, all the ships with goods were not precious things thrown into the sea, and other important materials were directly transported north, and the Xia army's relocation action began.
