Three days later, Zhang Shijie left the Wan'an Army with dozens of new weapons, three instructors sent by Zhao Lie, and more than a dozen gun-making craftsmen. In the report he wrote to the imperial court, there was such a sentence: "The Wan'an military city is narrow and simple, and it is absolutely difficult to resist the blow of the Yuanyu army, but with this sharp weapon, the enemy is 100 steps away, and the military city is ...... 'Wan'an'."

Seeing Zhang Fan, a number of warships carrying Zhang Shijie and other guards and generals, go away, Guo Chenggui's heart that had been hanging for a few days finally settled, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

Zhao Lie saw it in his eyes and couldn't help laughing: "Old Guo, it's hard for you these days." Don't worry, Zhang Xiangxiang will never know about this, take a step back and say, even if he knows, he will only blame the general, and he will never blame you. ”

Guo Chenggui smiled bitterly and wiped his sweat: "I hope so...... Zhang Xiangxiang hated deception the most in his life, and if he detected it, he was afraid that the old decay would be dismantled into pieces. ”

Zhao Lie laughed, and he couldn't see that the old craftsman who had been working hard all day could also tell jokes.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Fenglie on the side said: "What Guo Shaojian said is true, once Zhang Envoy is angry, the means are violent, and Bian Biao can be a lesson back then. ”

Zhao Lie hurriedly asked why.

Jiang Fenglie then talked about the second year of Deyou (1276). At that time, the Yuan army was forced to Lin'an, and when they arrived at Gaoting Mountain, Zhang Shijie led the troops into Dinghai. The Yuan general Shi Guoying sent Song to persuade Zhang Shijie to surrender. When Bian Biao entered the camp, Zhang Shijie thought that he was coming to follow him south, so Shiniu drank wine with him. Halfway through the wine, Bian Biao explained his intentions by drinking his ears. Zhang Shijie was furious, cut his tongue directly with a knife to cut off beef, and then split his body in Jianzi Mountain.

At that time, the reigning Duanzong Zhao Yu once took this as a loyal act, known to the world, and heard the full ring.

Zhao Lie listened to it and said: "The essence of this matter is not deception, but a major right and wrong. When the country was ruined, everyone was punished by traitors. Zhang Gong's means are used to deal with traitors, and it is not too much. But presumably you won't do this to your own people, don't worry too much. ”

Guo Chenggui had no choice but to say: "I hope so." ”

Zhao Lie actually had something that was rebellious and unspeakable: "Even if Zhang Shijie knows the truth in the future, what if he does?" The military industrial base is my Zhao Hunt's reverse scale, don't talk about you Zhang Shijie, even if the Queen Mother stretches out her hand, she will slap back. ”

On the sea, Zhang Shijie's fleet had just disappeared to the south, and a small boat suddenly appeared in the north. Originally, everyone just thought it was an ordinary fishing boat and didn't care, but the boat washed ashore with the waves, and one person jumped into the knee-deep shallows, raised his hand to the wind, and a four-cornered meteor flag came into view.

Everyone on the trestle was shocked, and the meteor flag - equivalent to a four-hundred-mile emergency report on land.

Military newspaper! Military newspaper from the north!

Half an hour later, all the officers who were ready to gather all the above officers gathered in the military conference hall of Wan'an Military City.

There are: Zhao Lie, the commander of the Dragon Bird Army, Jiang Fenglie, the deputy commander, Ouyang Guanhou, Shi Yang, the general Ma Guangde, the general of the Thunder team, Long Feiyi, the general of the junior team, Ding Xiaoyi, etc., Ding Xiaoyi and Hong Siniang were also present. Since there was no precedent for female generals in the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Lie took Hong Siniang's Li soldiers as an independent battalion, named "Chijiao Battalion", Hong Siniang's position was equivalent to a general, and the equipment and training were provided by the Dragon Bird Army, but not into the Dragon Bird Army sequence. As for Ding Xiaoyi, Zhao Lie didn't know how to arrange it, but with Ding Xiaoyi's past combat exploits and ability, it was enough to attend.

Due to the small number of troops in the Dragon Bird Army at the moment, most of the generals are high-matched. Like Ouyang Guanhou and Shi Yang, they were all promoted because of Wan'an's victory, one was promoted to the system, and the other was promoted to the commander. These two military positions are equivalent to division commanders and regiment commanders in later generations, but the troops commanded by the two are only two battalions. Long Feiyi and Ding Xiaoqi are the opposite, which is a low match. Although the two are only team generals, these two teams are Zhao Lie's own army, and they are the elite of the whole army, and the rank of the team officers is one level higher than that of ordinary troops, which is equivalent to the preparation general, so they can attend the military meeting.

In addition, Zhao Ruohe, the new governor of Wanning County, was also present. As soon as the war was in place, he had to organize the affairs of civil affairs, and naturally he needed to participate in the audit. However, he only has the qualification to observe, and there is no room for interference in military affairs.

At this time, above the military conference hall, Zhao Lie's sonorous voice floated: "I just received a spy report, Ali Hague, the right Cheng of Yuanjinghu Province, and Li Shi'an, the son of Li Heng and Zhongwanhu, led 40,000 coalition troops and more than 200 ships of various types, and officially crossed the sea from Leizhou and Guangzhou respectively. Three days ago, about 10,000 people from Ali Hague's pioneer fleet landed in Qiongzhou Prefecture, and the follow-up fleet is expected to arrive within half a month. ”

Zhao Lie looked around at the generals, his face was grim, and his tone was calm: "Gentlemen, the goal I have been waiting for for a long time is coming." ”

There was a sound of inhalation in the audience, forty thousand! Ali Hague is really pouring out of the nest.

As if he hadn't heard it, Zhao Lie continued: "It is reported that the combined forces of Ali Hague and Li Shi'an (Sanmu Grebe) claim to be 40,000, but in fact there are only about 35,000, even if you add 3,000 soldiers from Qiongzhou Wanhu Mansion, it is only 38,000. There are more than 200 ships, including large ships such as warships, warehouse ships and conscripted merchant ships, as well as small ships such as swordfish ships, and a total of 5,000 shipwrights according to the average need of 20 shipwrights per ship. About half of the invulnerable people (handymen, craftsmen, medical nurses, and shepherds) of the various armies are counted as 10,000 people. The auxiliaries accounted for half of them, and they were also 10,000 - of the 38,000 people in Ali Hague, there were only about 13,000 real soldiers. Qiongzhou Mansion needs to leave at least 1,000 soldiers, and the Changhua Army must also send 1,000 ships to guard it. In this way, we will not really face more than 30,000 enemy troops, of which no more than 10,000 can really attack and fight. ”

Ali's 40,000 troops in The Hague were analyzed and stripped by Zhao Lie one by one, and in the end there were only more than 10,000 left.

Jiang Fenglie and Ouyang Guanhou are both generals who have been in battles repeatedly, and they all nodded their heads in approval when they heard Zhao Lie's analysis. But Shi Yang and the others still inhaled like a toothache - even if it was more than 10,000, it was ten times the enemy! This is no more than ten times the enemy when the horse was fighting, and 200 against 2,000 is a completely different concept from 1,000 to 15,000.

"The Yuan Yu is powerful, and we need to ask the court for help." Ma Guangde hurriedly said, "Zhang Envoy has just left, and it is still too late to send a clipper to catch up at this time." "This Ma Guangde is the son of Ma Yongji, the old man of the Ma clan, and the younger brother of Ma Nanbao and Ma Nanchun. The ability is average, but most of the old broken camps are from Xiangshan, among which there are many volunteers and brave soldiers in Majiazhuang, and a military general from Ma's must be appointed to balance.

Zhao Lie said in a deep voice: "I have sent a clipper to inform Zhang Envoy that he is gone, but it is difficult to say how many reinforcements we can get, and we still need to be prepared for a tough battle." ”

Zhao Ruohe also said: "Ruohe has just come from Yafu, and he knows a little about the situation of the dynasty. Although the army has been expanded and increased, the total number of troops in Yafu is only more than 2,000, and the defense is still insufficient, and I am afraid of reinforcements......"

Jiang Fenglie also said: "The Yuanyu army ship is dozens of times that of my Wan'an garrison, and I will not have all the troops here." Their goal is when in Yafu. It is very likely that a part of the army will be divided to surround our army, and most of the rest will attack Yafu. Therefore, not only will Yafu not have reinforcements, but it is even possible to summon some of our troops to guard. ”

Everyone nodded, and this possibility was real.

Ma Guangde Khan, patronizing his own house without taking care of the dynasty, in case he was played a book...... Glancing at Zhao Ruohe, he saw that the latter's face was heavy, obviously all his thoughts were on the current war, and his heart was slightly relaxed.

Zhao Lie lifted his spirits: "The Yuan army is attacking in a big way, how our army wants to defend and even counterattack, everyone will discuss." ”

The military conference hall became lively, and someone proposed to put a military army in Chilong Mountain to contain the Yuan army. It was suggested that a detachment of troops could be set up in Duzhou Mountain to attack and harass the Yuan ships. Of course, it is more about putting forward various suggestions on how to defend Wan'an Military City and how to arrange the various troops.

Suddenly, a crisp voice sounded: "Why don't you set up an ambush in Jiazi Mountain?" ”

The military chamber is quiet, Jiazi Mountain? There's no value in ambushing there, who came up with the idea? All the generals looked at the source of the sound.

In the corner of the military conference hall, a girl is tall and fit - Ding Xiaoyi!
