Chapter 221: A Great Victory

Dong Wenbing didn't want to fight to the death with Song Jun, he was timid in his heart, and wanted to leave here as soon as possible. Therefore, Shi Huijie, the Han general who was already weak in combat, was left behind to cover, and the cavalry under his command was all composed of Han soldiers, even if they all died here, Dong Wenbing would not feel distressed.

"Yes, General!"

Shi Huijie picked up his subordinates, and went out of the village to face the battle with a special feeling in his heart, what an obvious mortal task, not only did he understand that the people under him were not stupid, but even the mounts under his crotch had no energy. A group of soldiers who had no fighting spirit happened to charge with Ling Zhen's high morale, and only lasted for half a pillar of incense, Shi Huijie gave up his insistence and fled with a few relatives and horses.

The 2,000 cavalry collapsed like a lump of mud, the soldiers who had no fighting spirit fled in all directions, and Dong Wenbing, who still had more than half of the people who did not withdraw from Humen Town, was blocked in the village by Ling Zhen's army. These people who were surrounded were not bad goods, and they were fighting with Ling Zhen's people street by street. However, the cavalry of the Yuan army had no advantage in the past, and when the passive defense was carried out, the small group battle was to find death, and the Song army concentrated its superior forces, almost killing the Yuan soldiers who fought in teams of dozens of people in seconds.

The besieged Yuan soldiers resisted desperately, and those who had the opportunity to escape fled desperately, and did not turn back to support the besieged comrades.

This is the shocking power of the two rounds of bombardment by the Hongyi artillery, many of them have participated in the siege battle in Zhangzhou, have been exposed to the great lethality of firearms, understand the principle of artillery shell explosion, and also know that the current equipment can not resist.

Dong Wenbing evacuated with a few thousand people first, leaving three or four thousand Yuan soldiers to fight with Ling Zhen, leaving Ling Zhen's biggest gain in this battle when he fled in a hurry, after completely defeating the Yuan soldiers who resisted in Humen Town, Ling Zhen cleaned up the battlefield and harvested nearly six thousand war horses that were still eating forage.

At the same time, a large number of cargo ships came to the wharf on Hong Kong Island, and Wei Yue, who took the lead, unsuccessfully asked to see Zhao Tianyou, and met Meng Shuirou, who was stationed on the island.

"Miss Shuirou is really getting more and more beautiful, I really didn't expect to see you here!"

Wei Shiyue was really a little surprised, not because he was surprised to see Meng Shuirou, but because of the changes in Meng Shuirou, it was simply earth-shaking. The two of them can be regarded as old acquaintances, since Meng Shuirou was as old as Meng Ling'er, Wei October has been to Meng's fishing village and seen this beautiful little girl.

Later, Jiang Hanchen met Meng Shuirou in Mengjia Fishing Village, Meng Shuirou at that time could be said to be a big beauty, her tall figure was quite outstanding, and her refreshing appearance and temperament really attracted men's sideways.

But now Meng Shuirou's appearance has not changed, but her temperament is completely different from the past, and when she looked at Wei Yue, the shyness of the little woman in the past was gone, and it was replaced by an atmosphere that read all the mountains.

"Hello Mr. Wei, it's been a long time, what can make you come here, is it the horse that Jiang Hanchen promised?"

"Yes, yes, it seems that Miss Shuirou has seen my son-in-law?"

"yes, I took him."

"Ahh That's it! ”

Wei October sighed, the letter written by Gongzi didn't say that he was in a cage, didn't he want to do business with Hong Kong Island, how did he become arrested, could it be......

"Miss Shuirou, we are all old acquaintances, I won't talk around the bend anymore, is my son-in-law tied up with a meat ticket? Are these horses a ransom? ”

Meng Shuirou smiled: "Your son is very valuable, you are willing to send so many horses to ransom him!" But let me tell you, Ma is indeed his ransom, but he came to Hong Kong Island on purpose, not that we are poor and can't eat to kidnap the ticket. ”

"Can I meet my son-in-law?"

"No, this has to wait for General Zhao to speak! He is now fighting the Yuan army in Guangzhou City, and I will send someone to inform him that you are coming to deliver the horse, and there will be a reply soon. ”

Zhao Tianyou is celebrating in the city of Guangzhou, and both fronts have returned with great victories, especially the thousands of war horses that Ling Zhen got back, which is simply a carbon in the fire. With the great increase in the strength of the Song army, it is impossible for the future battle lines to be on the city wall, and if you want to launch a fatal blow to the Yuan army, the last resort must be cavalry.

Wen Tianxiang's official position was the highest in the city of Guangzhou, and together with Zhang Zhensun and Zhang Zhensun, he went to the barracks as a representative to participate in the celebration banquet with the soldiers. The wine was not less, but the two of them were not drunk, which was also Zhao Tianyou's suggestion, and the two of them felt deeply, surrounded by the soldiers to toast, and they saw hope in those sincere eyes.

The official positions and status of the two of them are the beneficiaries of the policy of emphasizing civility over military force, and if it were not for this national policy, which has lasted for 300 years, the control and status of the two of them would not have reached the current level, but now they feel that the national policy of emphasizing civility over military force is really wrong.

Although the two of them are literati, they have both led soldiers to fight, and they have experienced a lot of things in life and death, but one thing they have never done is to really exchange emotions with the soldiers on the front line and feel their joys, sorrows, and sorrows.

These jobs were originally done by those generals, and most of the civil officials were in the role of giving orders from the high hall, that is, Wen Tianxiang fell into trouble several times, and he relied on his cronies to sacrifice his life to save him to this day, and he did not really have a deep contact with the soldiers.

Zhao Tianyou's suggestion was that the two of them felt that they wanted to give face, and they just went deep into the barracks, which could be regarded as a reward and comfort for the warriors who fought bravely to kill the enemy. But as the banquet continued, and after exchanging real emotions with the soldiers, these two people found that the leaders in the past were too negligent, and when did they think about their sufferings when they only knew that they had ordered them to die?

After the capital of Lin'an, the number of generals and soldiers who surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty began to increase year by year, starting with the famous Han general Liu Quan, Kublai Khan Boyan handed over the task of invading the Song Dynasty to the Han generals.

Led by Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng, interspersed with a small number of Mengyuan soldiers, the gradual encroachment of the siege over the years and the occupation of the Great Song Dynasty were mostly done by the Song people themselves.

Why did the generals surrender, why did the soldiers turn their blades upside down, did they forget their ancestors? In fact, it's not all, most people are out of helplessness, they want to survive and want to survive, and they can't do it. This shows that the Song Dynasty's management of the grassroots level of the army has been rotten to the point of no return, no one cares about it and no one asks, you should get a small amount of money every month, and you are still being deducted by layers of pickpockets, do you go back and work hard if you replace it?

"Prime Minister, what we did was too bad before, in fact, these young people want very little, we just need to respect and care more often, and they will be grateful." Zhang Zhensun's face flushed after drinking, his eyes were shining, and his heart was difficult to calm down.

"It's too late for change!"
