To say that after fighting for so long, the Song army did not study the method of dealing with fire oil bombs, plus the Song army originally had a tradition of using fire oil, so it was also known about burying sand and wrapping it with quilts.

Especially after the battle with the Ryukyus, the Great Song Dynasty paid more attention to the defense of fire attacks, and Fang La kept using fire oil bombs, so at first the Song army was not afraid of this kind of attack, because they were used to it.

But there are so many things that your defense becomes useless, and this time for this battle, the treasury has been emptied and more than 2,000 bed crossbows and matching fire oil bombs have been prepared.

So the battle was carried out for less than an hour, and the Song army found that the form was a little wrong, the enemy's bed crossbow and fire oil bombs seemed to be a bit much, and when the Song army began to react and tried to find a way to deal with it, a quarter of their own ships had already been ignited.

Duan Jiangliu sent his main fleet to participate in the battle at this critical moment, and suddenly became the last brick that crushed the camel's back, why is it a brick? The warship that was supposed to be a river was a replica of the Ryukyu Tokai type warship, and not only the deck was equipped with a bed crossbow.

Duan Jiangliu also invented the double-deck bed crossbow warship based on the advantage of direct fire from the bed crossbow, that is, another layer of gun ports was opened under the deck, which doubled the combat effectiveness of each ship, and the warship rushed into the enemy formation, which was like a moving large firework, bringing flames to nearby ships.

In this way, the formation that the Song army originally insisted on was instantly chaotic, and this formation was not far from defeat, and the battle lasted for more than four hours, and the final result was that the Song army collapsed, and less than one-fifth of the fleet escaped.

The next day, Duan Jiangliu really received the unexpected surprise said by the intelligence department, and caught the main force of the Great Song Forbidden Army that was crossing the river, and the 300,000 troops led by Tong Guan were killing all the way to Wuhu along the south bank of the Yangtze River.

It should be Fang La's intentional destruction, the bridges of large and small rivers have been burned or demolished, so along the way, Tong Guan's army built pontoon bridges when they encountered small rivers, and used boats to cross large rivers when they encountered large rivers, and finally encountered a big river in the west of Wuhu Gejiang in the west of Wuhu.

Originally, Tong Guan had heard yesterday that the sailor had been fighting with the enemy under Wuhu City, and hurriedly ordered the army to start crossing the river to pick up the cheap, but when the army was almost halfway over, he received the news of the defeat of the sailor.

In the end, in order to fear that the enemy would cut off the grain route, Tong Guan decided to retreat to Hexi first and wait for the sailors to regroup, but after a busy night, the army only returned 70,000, and there were still 80,000 people waiting on the other side of the river.

What does it mean to be half-crossed? Now it is! Duan Jiangliu cut off the waterway, and the 80,000 forbidden troops were trapped in Jiangdong, Tong Guan could only order the sailors to drive Duan Jiangliu's boats apart from scolding angrily.

It's just that after yesterday's defeat, it was already difficult for the sailors to organize an effective attack, and in the end, the little manpower that was barely organized was easily defeated by Duan Jiangliu's fleet, and the apologists led by Fang Yuan also arrived at the battlefield.

The end of 80,000 people was already doomed, surrounded in a small space by the river, they did not have the courage of Xiang Yu to break the cauldron and sink the boat, and finally five days later, the forbidden army with only three days of food in their hands began to surrender on a large scale.

Summing up the entire Wuhu Campaign, Tong Guan lost more than 100,000 land and water troops, which was a major victory, Fang La originally only thought that he could stabilize the battle line, but he didn't expect Duan Jiangliu to give him such a big surprise.

Tong Guan returned to Tongling to lick his wounds, the loss of the forbidden army was not large, and he still had more than 200,000 in his hand if he lacked the 80,000, but the loss of the sailor was more of a headache, it should be because the boat was not like people said that there was it, and it would take at least three months to restore the strength of the sailor.

Fang La got at least three months of respite, but Fang La had been stumbling for so long, and his strength was almost exhausted, and he was the king of the small circle in the south of the Yangtze River, and he enjoyed it.

In fact, because the peasant army did not produce, after the first year of expansion, there was no new land to subsidize, and the way of doing business was a major challenge for them.

To put it simply, it is not enough to rob alone, the places they occupy have not been well done, and now they want money and no money, and they want food and no food, and they can't move anymore, and everyone can still rely on the spirit of excitement to play in the first year.

But if the country is really founded, this soldier will be paid, right? Officials are going to pay money, right? Where's all this stuff? You can't go back and grab it, right? By taxes? The fields were largely barren because of the war, and the merchants were almost extinct, so who to ask for taxes?

So the gap between the ideal and the reality is huge, originally Fang La felt that one day he would be the emperor, how the people would be happy, but the reality was that in order to pay salaries to the army, in order to pay salaries to officials, in order to collect more grain and grass, he raised taxes more than the Great Song Dynasty.

Fang La also wanted to change, but he was powerless to change, knowing that it was to drink to quench his thirst, but he had to do this, fortunately, Ryukyu could still provide some help, and every time Ryukyu recruited a homeless person from Fang La, he would give Fang La a subsidy of ten stone of grain, or directly turn it into weapons and other war materials.

In order to maintain his rule, Fang La had to watch two or three hundred thousand people every month being picked up by Ryukyu ships, and there was nothing he could do, even though he felt that he was buying and selling people, although he also knew that it would not be long before there would be no people on his territory.

If you don't sell it, you will die at any time, and if you sell it, you may be able to live, so Fang La turned a blind eye to this matter, and his ministers only felt that this was a good way to make money, and they worked together to do this matter well.

Zhang San emigrated more than 1 million people to the Malay Peninsula and Sumatra, more than 200,000 to New Guinea, and more than 30,000 to Oceania.

Just when Fang La's victory in Wuhu was confused, a man named Wang Qing in Huaixi suddenly began to rebel a month later.

As soon as Fang La's rebellion came, the Great Song Dynasty stationed a large army on the north bank of the Yangtze River, and Tong Guan stationed nearly 300,000 troops in Tongling.

Huainan West Road is mountainous, the people's livelihood is already relatively difficult, the war has been fought for a year, the local tax will be collected for the next three years, and then the people will be transferred to transport grain and grass to the army, making the people even more difficult.
