On the top of Chilong Mountain, there are still traces of the village erected by the horse Fuji that day: scattered antlers, collapsed wooden fences, and sections of trenches, which were washed by rain and silted up with mud and potholes.

Early in the morning, Zhao Lie took Jiang Fenglie, Ouyang Guanhou, Shi Yang and other generals to lead the youth team and the Thunder team to Chilong Mountain on horseback. In his later life, Zhao Hunt once stayed in the Inner Mongolia grassland for a month, and his riding skills were so-so, and it was not a big problem to run more than ten miles of mountain roads. And the members of the junior team and the thunder team as guards, they have also practiced horsemanship, maybe the cavalry is far from being comparable to the Mongolian soldiers, but it is still no problem to keep up with Zhao Hunt. And Jiang Fenglie and Ouyang Guanhou's riding skills can only be described as excellent, not to mention it.

Zhao Lie and his entourage climbed Chilong Mountain early in the morning, neither to climb high to view the sea, nor to explore the relics, but to ......

A few miles away on Wanning Beach, the empty and lonely tidal flats of the past, are now full of troops, crowded with people, and cows and horses neighing. More soldiers, miscellaneous servants, livestock, and supplies are being spit out from more than 20 large and small ships on the sea.

From the beach to the slopes, groups of licensed guns, bows and arrows, and hats of sergeants lined up along the ridgeline of high and low mountains, forming a semi-circular defensive formation. Closer, hundreds of scouts rode out and plunged into the mountains and forests. The shadow of the rider disappeared and grew, and the range gradually expanded, and any army that tried to approach it could not escape their detection.

Zhao Lie raised the scope and slowly rotated the adjustment valve, and the cross lens changed from blurry to clear, and a silver-edged white background appeared. It is embroidered with a scimitar and a scripture, and there are two rows of twisted silver characters on it, a bit like the Vulture script. Parallel to this banner is a large flag with the same silver edge and white background, with four Chinese characters written on it: Suddenly lost The Hague.

The Chinese army sits down!

Ali Hague's eldest son, 10,000 households in Qiongzhou, lost The Hague and came.

"There are a lot of soldiers and horses." Zhao Lie handed the scope to Ding Xiaoyi, who was impatient on the side.

Ding Xiaoqi took it and got together with Zhang Junbao, Grasshopper, Black Pill and others to observe.

Jiang Fenglie estimated while watching: "There are no less than seven or eight thousand people." After removing the shipwrights and miscellaneous labor, the number of combatable troops was about three or four thousand. ”

Shi Yang shouted: "Three or four thousand! Beiting Big Nose doesn't take us seriously so much, and only uses one or two times the strength to attack our military city? ”

Ali Hague is a native of Beiting, and his direct Semu army is also called the "Beiting Army". People with deep eyes and high noses are colorful, so many people in the Wan'an Army call Ali Hague "Beiting Big Nose".

Ouyang Guanhou touched his upper lip and stroked his mustache, and shook his head: "Ali Hague is a general of the Yuanyu, and he will not be so big." ”

"Will it be ......" Jiang Fenglie and Zhao Lie glanced at each other, and there was a vague judgment in their hearts, but they didn't say anything, so they could only collect more information to confirm it.

As the Yuan Army's scouts were scattered, the Sentinels of the Dragon Bird Army continued to shrink the detection range, and various news came in like a flowing price:

"Yuan Yu has chosen to camp between Chilong Mountain and Jiazi Mountain, and the auxiliary army has begun to scatter ashes and draw lines."

"Our vessel has been safely transferred to Shitong Bay."

"The police post on Duzhou Mountain has been withdrawn in the afternoon."

Zhao Lie originally stationed a fire sentry on the beacon tower of Duzhou Mountain, but now that the enemy is huge, leaving a dozen sentries in the beacon tower is useless, and he can only deliver food, and he must withdraw as soon as possible.

At this time, the chief officer of the guards and the general of the Thunder Clan, Long Feiyi, urged: "Dutong, the enemy reconnaissance cavalry is approaching, please leave as soon as possible and return to the military city as soon as possible." ”

"Let's go, let's go!" Shi Yang dispersed the teenagers like an eagle chasing chickens, and reached out to snatch the scope in Zhang Junbao's hand.

Zhang Junbao's body shook slightly, and Shi Yang stretched out his hand and fell into the air. Shi Yang sighed, his anger rose, and Zhang Junbao hurriedly pointed forward: "Brother Shi, do you see that the people who are surrounded by a group of color-eyed warriors under the bow of the ship have lost The Hague?" ”

Shi Yang's attention was diverted, he took the scope and looked at it for a while, shook his head and said, "It looks like ...... But we don't know this little nose in the north garden. ”

On the side, Kuromaru patted the long flintlock pistol on his body, and said with regret: "If only this gun could hit three or four miles away, I slammed Beiting's little nose, and I didn't have to fight any battle." ”

Shi Yang joked: "If you can fight three or four miles away, grandpa will directly carry this gun and kill Kublai Khan, then you really don't have to fight any battle." ”

Everyone laughed and took the stirrup.

Everyone should listen to jokes, but Zhao Lie's heart moved-the gun can't hit three or four miles, but the cannon can. It's a pity that there is no seamless steel pipe suitable for making cannons in the military industrial base, and if you cast a cannon, you can't figure out the doorway at all, and you don't know when and what month it will be built. So, is there any other way to solve this problem?

Zhao Lie kept thinking from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, and he didn't think of any tricks. Finally, he shook his head and smiled to himself, thinking about what these useless people were for? It is only right to focus on the battle in front of you.

Looking back, the Chinese army had moved from the boat to the beach, and was slowly approaching the slope forest.

Zhao Lie licked his lips, it doesn't matter, there are no guns or guns, and it is enough to give Xiao Hague a pot to drink.

"Let's go!" The reins shook, the hooves sounded like thunder, and dozens of horsemen raised a puff of smoke and dust, and disappeared into the mountains and forests in a blink of an eye......

On October 24 of the second year of Xiangxing, Ali Hague's 35,000 troops set out from Qiongzhou to conquer the Great Song Dynasty. In order to comfort Long Wenxiang, 3,000 soldiers from Qiongzhou guarded Qiongguan; With a march of thousands of households, Liu Xiaozhong led 3,000 troops to attack the Changhua army; With his eldest son, 10,000 households suddenly lost The Hague, leading 8,000 troops to attack 10,000 An'an troops; He personally raised more than 20,000 troops, with the generals to take off the temperature and take Li Shi'an as the marching army of 10,000 households, and conquered the Great Song Dynasty and stationed in the cliff city.

The clouds of war loomed over Qiongzhou.

……

As the army of Lost The Hague set up camp and dug trenches, Zhao Lie and Jiang Fenglie's guess was confirmed - the 8,000 army of Lost Hague was not to attack the Wan'an army, but to block the Wan'an army.

Ali Hague left 3,000 soldiers to guard Qiongguan, not because he was worried that Zhao Lie would counterattack the base camp by land, but because to prevent the Li Fang riot. In the past few decades, Li Fang has repeatedly committed border offenses, the most recent of which was in the second year of Deyou, that is, three years ago. Even if the Eight Barbarians have now expressed their submission, but the Tibetan barbarians are rebellious and impermanent, if Qiong Guan is empty, who dares to say that they don't have different intentions? As for the counterattack of the Wan'an army, Ali Hague was not worried, because at this time in Qiongzhou, from the Wan'an army to Qiongguan, could only take the sea route, and the land route needed to pass through Limu Mountain, which was the Wuzhi Mountain in later generations. In the twelfth century, Wuzhi Mountain was a primeval jungle, wild and dangerous, smoky and poisonous...... Even if there are indigenous guides to lead the way, a few people are okay, and the army will not think about it.

In the same way, from the Wan'an Army to Yacheng, you can only take the sea route, and you can't go by land at all. Suddenly losing the Hague army and blocking the way to the sea is equivalent to trapping the Wan'an army. In this way, the Song army in Wan'an Military City could neither attack Qiongguan nor rescue Yacheng, but could only watch the Xing Dynasty fall and be eaten by the Ali Hague army that had fallen back from the victorious class.

This is Ali Hague's wishful thinking. In his opinion, the 8,000-strong army may not be able to attack the Wan'an army, but it must be no problem to defend instead of attack and block the Wan'an Song army. Therefore, before going to war, he repeatedly told his eldest son, and after landing on Wanning Beach, he immediately set up camp, only defended and did not attack, as long as he trapped the Wan'an Song army, he would be credited with his merits.

The sudden loss of The Hague is the second merit, so who is the first merit? There is no doubt that it is naturally the dewarming of Cliff City that does not cost Li Shi'an.

Ali Hague left the great success of attacking the Xing Dynasty to his powerful generals and reinforcement generals, and sent his eldest son to gnaw on the hard and oilless Wan'an army. This arrangement, on the surface, is to show the public heart, but in fact, it is not without the intention of guarding against the rumors of the imperial court. If the head of The Hague is allowed to attack the cliff city, and the three of them, father and son, will jointly achieve the merit of destroying the Great Song Dynasty, what will others think? What will the political enemies of the DPRK and China think? And he arranged it like this, from the court to the army, who doesn't admire it?

On October 28, intelligence from all sides was gathered, and the strategic situation of the Yuan army was clear. Ali Hague, with its strong forces, adopted a three-pronged strategy: surround its two flanks and hit the center directly. As soon as Yacheng is broken, it means that the Great Song Dynasty is in ashes, and what can the remaining two partial divisions do?

In the face of such a grim situation, how should Zhao Lie and his Dragon Bird Army break the situation?
