During the second to third years of Duanping in the Great Song Dynasty, the entire Shu was miserable.

In this year's situation, the Mongols broke through the border and entered, and the four major Rong Divisions in the north of the Kechuan River tore apart the defense line of Shuzhong that the Song army had operated for more than ten years like chopping melons and vegetables, and more than 100,000 troops were about to collapse at the touch of a button, and in just a few months, they hit the city of Chengdu.

The fall of Chengdu Jinguancheng sounds a little funny.

The city was taken by the Mongols disguised as the Song army.

Because the Mongols marched so fast, their vanguard reached Chengdu Horse Bridge before the Song army's defeated army.

So naturally, Ding Pi, the deputy envoy of the system who stayed in the city, didn't know that the Mongols had already passed the Sword Pavilion and the soldiers were coming to the city.

The Mongolian pioneer Wang Shixian seized the opportunity to make his subordinates raise the banner of the Song army, and the soldiers who knew Chinese played the front station, pretending to be the Song army retreating from the front line, and swaggered to the south gate of Chengdu.

Of course, the people outside the city did not know that this was a group of wolves on horseback, and under the leadership of the village elders, according to the Song law, the people who led the sheep and slaughtered the pigs came out to work the army, and the Mongols laughed at it.

Ding Pi, the deputy envoy of the system who heard the news, also came out, and he only brought a few hundred personal soldiers, intending to meet the main general of this team in order to arrange where they would go next.

Due to the late arrival of the news, it was dark and Ding Pi did not realize that something was wrong until he walked to the Mongols.

A few hundred people were overwhelmed by the Mongol cavalry in the blink of an eye.

Ding Pi desperately fled back to the city, and the Mongols happily followed.

The city was in turmoil.

Ding Pi is also a kind, leading dozens of people to fight with the Mongols in the streets, and died of several arrows.

According to the survivors, the fire that burned in Chengdu that day could be seen hundreds of miles away, and the screams drifted out of more than a dozen places in the wind, and the Mongolian army closed the city and set it on fire, and countless people died in the flames.

Of the 200,000 soldiers and civilians in the city, less than they survived.

Neighboring Pengzhou, Yongkang Army and other places were attacked at the same time.

If it weren't for the news that the commander of the Mongolian East Route Army, Kuo Chu, had died of illness in Jiangling, the Western Route Mongolian Army would have continued to move south.

Because of this sudden incident, there were disputes within Mongolia, and the commander of the Western Road, Kuoduan, had to withdraw his troops and bring most of the troops back to Mongolia, leaving only Marshal Tahai and the vanguard officer Wang Shixian to stay in the area of Chuzhou, occupy the key passes, and lay the foundation for further entry into the army in the future.

Tahai and others then plundered everywhere, anyway, there was no formed Song Dynasty army in Shuzhong, and the generals who could fight the Mongols in the field had died in Yangping Pass with Cao Youwen, and no one could have such courage and ability anymore.

For most of the next six months, the prefectures and counties in western Sichuan, northern Sichuan and Chengdu Prefecture were all poisoned, and the Song army had no choice but to tremble in the city.

The Tusi Sizhou Tian clan and the Banzhou Yang clan who had been sent from the eastern Sichuan expedition were also defeated in the chaotic battle, and although the barbarians had some advantages in mountain warfare, the unobstructed terrain of the Chengdu Plain was no different from the steppe for the Mongols, and they despised all enemies in this terrain.

The people of Sichuan, who had not experienced a cruel war for hundreds of years, were ravaged in pain under the hooves of the Mongolian army.

However, the official army of the Great Song Dynasty was unable to fight back, so they could only fortify along Shizhou, Guizhou, and Badong under the arrangement of the new Jinghu pacification envoy Meng Heng, and garrison troops to prevent the Mongols from moving south along the Yangtze River and threatening Xiangfan.

The Mongols were like a gust of savage wind, blowing wantonly on the vast land of Shuzhong, and no one could stop them when they saw the city destroying it.

These news, Changsun Hong knew through the dog.

"Ruifuxiang General Shop has already started to move to the south, although Hezhou has not been affected for the time being, but with the style of the Mongols, from near to far looting, sooner or later it will hit the city of Hezhou, so it is not safe." The dog sat in the barracks of Sun Hong, the magistrate of Huiwu County, while the cow drank a large scoop of water with tea leaves, and said with puffed eyes: "The Grandmaster Dao of Hezhou Zhizhou sent his family away, and he stayed alone, gathered the people and soldiers, and prepared to defend to the death." ”

Changsun Hong listened carefully, leaning on the table made of rough wood, blowing the refreshing wind outside, with a serious face, and when the dog finished speaking, he immediately asked: "Can our network in northern Sichuan still work?" ”

"It's hard." Dog Zi said, his face worried: "Many people died in the war, the Mongols almost killed people when they saw them, and robbed them when they saw things, we cut off contact with many places, I don't know whether the contact person there is dead or alive, and I don't dare to send people over, the risk on the road is too great, in addition to the Mongols, the defeated stragglers and rogues are also a scourge." ”

"We have to find a way to recover as much as possible, otherwise we won't be able to grasp the situation over there, and we will be very passive." The eldest grandson Hong said in a deep voice: "Dali's side has reached the most critical moment, and there is no room for difference. ”

"You can rest assured that the Mongolians are not good at mountains, and Shimenfan is separated by thousands of mountains, so they can't get through." The dog said firmly: "They are only interested in rich places with oil and water, and they don't want to come to the poor ravines." ”

"This is the best, I don't want to be attacked by the enemy when dealing with the Duan family and the Gao family." The eldest grandson Hong pondered and said: "But let's be careful if Jiulonglang is careful, in case there is an eyeless Tartar who gets lost, it will bring panic to the people in this area, and the people's hearts will be confused, which is more troublesome than anything else." ”

"The Mongols won't come, will the Duan clan ask for help from the Great Song court?" The dog thought for a while and said: "Duan Wu's soldiers are almost under Dali City, and anyone will ask for help in life and death." ”

"They've begged for it." Eldest Sun Hong laughed and took out a yellow scroll from his arms: "I came back here, not only to see you, but also to meet the envoy of the imperial court, it is a Lang official from the Privy Council, who came five days ago, give me a scroll and leave." ”

"What does the court say?" The dog didn't reach for the scroll, he knew that there were some things that shouldn't be wanted.

"You want to make me an official." The eldest grandson Hong smiled nonchalantly: "If you want me to be the deputy envoy of Xuzhou defense, this official has a military position of six grades, and he has a salary of thirty yuan of silver a year, and he will be rewarded for the New Year's holidays." In addition, my name will be crossed out of the criminal department, and I will never be again."

The dog laughed so much that he almost turned his back on breath, pointing at Changsun Hong and panting and laughing: "Hahahaha, thirty times, Erlang, this can't even catch up with the fraction you get from Rui Fuxiang in a month!" The court is too generous! ”

He leaned back and shook his head: "And that Raushzi's deputy envoy for defense, is there still a positive one on it?" So someone cares about you? ”

Changsun Hong looked at him calmly, without any annoyance: "I'm going to let you be this official." ”

The dog immediately stopped laughing, and changed his face to a serious face: "I'm kidding, I wasn't laughing at you just now." ”

"Who's laughing at that?" Changsun Hong stared into his eyes.

"Laughing at the Mongolians, laughing at the Dali people, laughing at the court, I'm not laughing at you anyway." The dog's eyes were rolling around, and his heart was pounding for no reason, and he didn't dare to look at the eldest grandson, and he was lying at first glance.

The appearance of the eldest grandson Hong's gloomy face was actually very scary, and the effect of the sword in his gaze was enough to frighten the most arrogant barbarians.

Just when the dog was at a loss, the eldest grandson Hong smiled suddenly, his gloomy face suddenly became sunny, he stood up and hooked the dog's neck, and asked affectionately, "How is it?" The look on my face just now is scary, isn't it? ”

"It's scary." The dog clutched his chest with relief: "You are very good at cultivating qi." ”

"This is a gift for Dali's group of grandchildren." The eldest grandson said: "They eat hard and not soft, come up with this way to trap me, it's time to give them a little color." ”
