The outcome of the battle of Song, Yuan, and Western Fujian shook the world.

Before the war, even if they were optimistic about the new force of the Great Song Dynasty, the forces of the north and south, they could not have imagined that the Yuan army, which almost had an absolute advantage in forces, would be defeated by the Song army, and it would be defeated in a dignified manner on the frontal battlefield.

In the middle of this great battle, the Yuan army was defeated by heavy cavalry, the Hebi Red Army and the Cowardly Xue Army suffered an unprecedented massacre, and even the captain of 10,000 people was killed in the battle, and the Yuan court, who received the report from Boyantang, had a premonition that the battle might be lost. However, even so, the entire Yuan court never expected that this gathering of nearly 200,000 elite troops from several provinces in the south of the Yangtze River would be wiped out in the end!

In the end, it was Zhao Lie and his subordinate generals who were very confident in this battle, they believed that the final victory of this war must belong to them, and even made a plan to gather and annihilate most of the Yuan army or even the entire Yuan army, even so, the final result made them unbelievable - not only the total annihilation of nearly 200,000 yuan of troops, but also the instigation of the prime minister of Meng Yuan, the deputy marshal, these two whale-level "big fish", failed to run away.

It was a happy, complete, complete victory! It is an unprecedented victory since the Song and Yuan Dynasty fought for nearly a year!

The battle of western Fujian completely reversed the situation between the Song and Song armies. Although Song Jun was strong before, he was at most a hard walnut, which could knock out a few teeth of the Yuan Court, making him feel pain and threat, but it was far from being fatal. However, the heavy damage caused by the battle of western Fujian to the Yuan court was not as simple as a few teeth, it was almost a heavy punch to Meng Yuan's lower body, which made Meng Yuan's heart and spleen painful, his liver and intestines twitched, and his body curled up, and after that, the male wind was no longer ......

As hundreds of thousands of elites in Jiangnan were swept away, there was a vacuum in the entire southern part of Mengyuan. Although there are Fan Wenhu, Liu Chen and other Han generals who have hundreds of thousands of troops, which seems to be huge, but when they are scattered into the vast area of the south, which is as vast as the sea, this little soldier and horse can't even make a splash. As for letting them join forces to reject the Song ...... At this time, these two generals were afraid that they would be frightened early, and Ren Yuanting would not do anything to coerce and lure them to death - you must know that it seems that "Song traitors" like them took refuge in Meng Yuan for the sake of longevity and wealth, not for death. If Meng Yuan is in a hurry, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not rebel against Yuan again like they did when they rebelled against Song.

As for the other army that the Yuan court arranged in the south, the 100,000 army of Zhennan Wang Tuhuan, it was difficult to get out of the quagmire of Annan at this moment, let alone draw troops to meet the Song army.

In desperation, in October of the first year of Xingyan of the Great Song Dynasty, that is, two months after the end of the battle of western Fujian, the Yuan court ordered Fan Wenhu and Liu Chen to abandon Jiangsu and Zhejiang, retreat across the Yangtze River, and hand over the entire Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, Jiangxi provinces and the central and southern parts of Huguang Province to the Great Song Dynasty - that is to say, except for the land of Sichuan and Shaanxi that was still in the hands of the Yuan court, the territory of the Song and Yuan dynasties almost returned to the "honeymoon period" period when the two countries jointly destroyed the Jin nearly a year ago.

In just one battle, half of the country was recaptured from Meng Yuan, and the power of the Song army's heavy punch finally appeared. Yuan Ting, whose "lower body" was injured, began to curl up drastically. When the soldiers came to the city and Lin'an was surrendered, the majestic wind of "the first peak of Wushan Mountain" had passed away with the head of Boyan rolling down the dust.

Contrary to the heavy losses of the Mengyuan and Yuan, after the Great War of Western Fujian, the Song army reaped heavy and fruitful fruits. All kinds of military resources, such as swords, armor, bows, crossbows, arrows, grain, straw and fodder, are piled up, and there is not just one mountain, but more than a dozen!

More than 70,000 Yuan soldiers were captured and surrendered, including nearly 10,000 Mongol soldiers and Semu soldiers in addition to the new annex army and the Han army. In the past, the Song and Yuan dynasties fought against each other, and it was not without victories, nor did they have no prisoners, but capturing Mongolian soldiers was extremely rare. Nearly 10,000 ...... Such an amount, unprecedented, shocked jaws.

The greater gain was the capture of a large number of high-quality war horses of the Yuan army. After the defeat of the end of the day alone, nearly 6,000 war horses were left behind (one elite Mongolian soldier with two horses was the norm), and Boyan left nearly 5,000 war horses when he fled into the Wuyi Mountains. The sum of these two items alone exceeded 10,000 horses, not to mention the number of war horses obtained after the encirclement and annihilation of the main force of the Yuan army, reaching a terrifying number. When the statistics came out that day, all the generals of the Song army who heard this number were short of breath, their eyes were shining, and their heads were dizzy...... Zhang Shijie, a veteran, almost suffered a cerebral hemorrhage.

It's no wonder that the generals are so out of shape, it is really that during the entire Southern Song Dynasty, the Song army was extremely short of horses, not to mention such good horses, even if they were bad horses, they were rare in the eyes of the Song army soldiers. The large number of war horses has made the Beiwei army expand at a high speed, reaching the terrifying number of 10,000 horsemen in a very short time.

In fact, there are not many soldiers in the Song army who can ride horses and have certain riding skills, but what they lack is just war horses. Now that this missing board has been filled, it has naturally expanded rapidly, and its strength and combat power have increased significantly. This also made the total strength of the Dragon Bird Army exceed 20,000, and its strength skyrocketed.

In September, after receiving the order of Zhao Lie, the lord of the Song Dynasty, Zhang Shijie and Zhang Ba pursued Li Heng with this back-up army whose strength had skyrocketed. This chase is thousands of miles, from Fujian to Jiangxi, from Jiangxi to Huguang.

In the end, on the south bank of the Yangtze River and in the area of Bailuji in Jiangxia, the grain was exhausted, and Li Heng, who only had a thousand horsemen, was surrounded...... One day after the bloody battle, after paying the same heavy losses of soldiers and horses, the Beiwei army completely annihilated Li Hengqian's cavalry and horses, and returned with their heads headed.

At the same time, Su Liuyi, father and son and Ma Nanbao, who retreated to Xiangshan, also took advantage of the situation to recover the Guangnan Zhuzhou County, which had been eroded by Li Heng and Wanzhi, stabilized the rear, and reopened the land grain route.

Under this favorable situation, in November of the first year of Xingyan, the Song army recovered its combat strength after several months of rest. From the surrendered more than 70,000 troops, the weak and the strong, got 30,000 soldiers and horses, and digested and absorbed. At this time, the strength of the main dragon bird army (forbidden army) reached 30,000, and the strength of the box army was the best, and there were also 50,000 people. The entire Northern Expeditionary Army totaled 80,000, which was unprecedentedly powerful.

Since then, since the Northern Expedition was pledged in April, only half a year has passed, the strategic purpose of the Northern Expedition has been achieved and exceeded, and the Northern Expedition in the military sense has been a complete victory.

At this time, as long as Zhao Lie, the lord of the Song Dynasty, led his army to advance to Lin'an and recapture Xingzai, it meant a complete victory of the Northern Expedition in the political sense.

Lin'an, since the second year of Deyou Boyan captured the Empress Dowager and Emperor Xian returned to the north, this place has become the location of Fan Wenhu, the governor of the two Zhejiang, that is, the governor's mansion of the two Zhejiang. Now that the roles are reversed, Fan Wenhu, a tiger, has become a rabbit, but Song Jun is like a lion and a tiger. Fan Wenhu was afraid of Song Ruhu, although he was reluctant to leave the old nest that had been in business for many years, but he couldn't fight and couldn't fight, and he was unwilling to surrender.

However, Fan Wenhu is obviously not a loyal and virtuous minister, whether it is for the Song Dynasty or the Yuan Dynasty, before leaving, he secretly sent his sons and nephews to contact the Xing Dynasty, using the convenience of his own land snake to seek to maximize benefits.

In the middle of November of the first year of Xingyan, in the frenzied cheers of the military and people in Fujian and Guangzhou, and under the eagerness of countless gentry and people in the south of the Yangtze River, Zhao Lie, the lord of the Song Dynasty, led hundreds of civil and military officials and 80,000 elite cavalry to march by sea and land, and went north to recover the lost territory and advance to Lin'an.
