Chapter 217 - Calculation
"I didn't expect Cui Gong to go too. There is one less person in the DPRK who can really share the worries of His Majesty, alas, ......"
Meng Hui didn't know why Lu Dao was suddenly a little excited, as if talking to himself, but those eyes were always staring at Jia Yidao. Apparently still unwilling.
It is no wonder that Meng Hui is like this, the secret order from the Privy Council just now is very clear, there will be no more reinforcements in the DPRK and China, and Meng Heng is strictly ordered to hold his mouth and not spend money, and immediately after receiving the secret order, he ordered Jingmen and Xiangyang sailors to go up the river and go to Wanzhou to assist Zhao Rongrui in Sichuan to prevent 800,000 Mongolian troops from crossing the river to the south.
In another sense, this is equivalent to directly announcing that more than 200,000 Jinghu troops in Xiangyang City, more than one million people, as well as Meng Heng and others, have been abandoned. Although the imperial court did not say it explicitly, Meng Heng knew that the imperial court hoped that Xiangyang City would also need to drag the hundreds of thousands of troops who were not willing to spend money on the river, so that they would not join forces with the two armies of Tahai and Naduo and directly cross the river to the south.
Jia Rudao is in Xiangyang City, it is impossible for Zhao Yun not to know about Lu Dao, and it is impossible for Shi Songzhi of the Privy Council not to know Lu Dao. At this time, the transfer of all the naval warships means that even if Jia Rudao and others really want to leave, they can only rely on civilian ships, but civilian ships are civilian ships after all, and once they encounter Mongolian sailors, the consequences can be imagined.
Meng Hui thinks that he still knows a little about Jia Yidao, the young man is ambitious, and he doesn't seem to care too much about anything, but he is proud! At this moment, for the sake of the imperial court, he was thousands of miles away to sacrifice the army, but he was given up for no reason, naturally because he was worried that Jia Yidao had a grudge against Shi Songzhi and others, and even a grudge against Zhao Yun.
"Hehe, Meng Shuai, don't look at it anymore! Since I dare to come to Xiangyang City, I have thought of today, although I have not thought of this situation now, I am surprised that my mouth temperature does not take it!
The Holy Lords also have the thoughts of the Privy Council, and it seems that they can roughly guess one or two. They hope that we will hold Xiangyang City, drag the mouth of the temperature and not spend these hundreds of thousands of troops, it is understandable, in other words, in the case that there are not many good cards available in the hand, I am afraid that it will be the same! ”
Jia Rudao looked at Meng Hui and said with a smile.
"Ben Shuai really didn't look wrong! Ha Lu Ha! Meng Hui was a little embarrassed, "Originally, the official planned to tie you up and send you to the south bank of the Yangtze River, ...... Thinking about it, I also realized it in my heart, so I would invite this marshal to come to this weapons prison, right? Ha Luha, but now that you have the thunderbolt you made, the official is worried that there are too few of the troops under his command who are not warm! Ha Lu Ha! ”
Meng Heng had all the doubts in his heart at this moment, but he had returned to his state of being in a
"Hehe, the two armies of Natahai, Bald Xue and Naduo, all the way known as 800,000, all the way claimed 300,000, presumably just bluffing Zhao Rongrui and Zhao Kui, now I am the commander of the army in the Great Song Dynasty, in the eyes of the Dao, I am afraid that only Meng Shuai Jinghu generals have the confidence and courage to fight with the Mongols, and the rest of the army is ...... Hehe, the boss has lost his courage, how can those soldiers use their lives? ”
In front of Meng Hui, Jia Rudao directly called Zhao Rongrui and Zhao Kui, the two high-powered feudal officials, by name, obviously impatient with the two of them in his heart.
Meng Heng's face froze, but he didn't speak.
Jia seems to say, after all, he is still a relative of the emperor, and now the official rank is even on his Jinghu system, and it is okay to directly point to their names, he, after all, is still a little bit worse,
"What do we think we should do now? Is it to continue to hold on...... Still is? ”
Meng Hui thought about it, took the initiative to change the conversation, and instead asked Jia Yidao what to do next.
"That Wen Buhua summoned 60,000 cavalry to participate in the siege, and he really had no fear, but thinking about it, the main intention of the two armies was only to contain the Sichuan, Huaixi, and Huaidong theaters, as for crossing the river to the south...... I think it's just incidental......" Jia Yidao knocked on the armchair, glanced at Meng Heng for a moment and continued: "Then it depends on what Meng Shuai wants." ”
"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”
"With more than 200,000 troops to hold Kouwen Buhua, nearly 600,000 troops besieged before and after, and Xiangyang City was not lost, compared with Sichuan and Huaidong, which lost the city and land, it was already a great merit. If you want to go further......"
"What further?" Meng Hui stared at Jia Yidao tightly and said urgently.
"Hehe, naturally, let the mouth temperature not take the halberd to Xiangyang City! You can't leave the mouth temperature without flowers, but it also makes the mouth temperature not spent. Jia Rudao looked at Meng Hui and said lightly.
"Those who know me seem to be the way!" Meng Hui stood up, and Da Lu said with a smile, "I think that I, Meng Heng, have fought thousands of battles since Rong, although I can't say that I haven't tasted defeat, but I have never been so aggrieved as today, and I hate it; The officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee are incompetent, I hate it! The border armies of all walks of life, the generals cowered, I hate it even more! This battle of Xiangyang was originally caused by the current situation because of Ben Shuai's fault, I originally wanted to send away the Dao, even if he died, I would drag more Mongolian people to accompany the funeral, but I never thought that the Dao would bring shame to the Shuai, how could I let it go? ”
Meng Heng's three consecutive hatreds made Jia Rudao realize for the first time that this famous Song Dynasty general who was good at dancing in the middle of the court, after all, was still a mobile defense master who was suspicious of Zhao Yun and finally died depressed because of his great power, but in fact, there were still too many things hidden in his heart.
"There is chaos in the DPRK and China, and there is a headache for the saint, if someone thinks that Jia and the general are easy to handle, it seems that Dao will naturally not mind letting them taste Jia's methods."
Meng Hui suddenly turned his head and stared at Jia Rudao, his eyes burning. Jia Rudao has bluntly positioned the relationship between the two as allies, or even closer than allies, so Meng Heng can't help but be shocked.
One is a young magnate who can now even enter the cabinet directly, a relative of the emperor, and a celebrity in front of the emperor, and the other is a vulgar martial artist who has no foundation in the court except for the Shi clan who has sown the West Mountain and has many enemies.
"Hehe, Meng Shuai, don't look like this, I'll be shy."
“……”
Meng Heng didn't come up in one breath, and almost suffocated to death.
"Okay, Meng Shuai, don't worry about the chaos in the DPRK and China, the jumping clown won't be able to jump for long after all. It was better to order General Jiang Hai to lead the army to the west earlier, although the main attack was not to be spent, but if the Mongols were really allowed to cross the Yangtze River, even if they could be driven back to the north, I am afraid that hundreds of people in the Great Song Dynasty would be displaced.
In the end, the battle of the three places still depends on Xiangyang City, as long as we can fight the mouth temperature and not spend until we make peace, even if the other two armies cross the Yangtze River, they can only obediently retreat, otherwise...... If you don't spend that mouthful, don't leave Xiangyang City. ”
"Just what I want! Ben Shuai will arrange it! Meng Hui said and turned around and prepared to rush out of the door.
"Hey, Meng Shuai!" Jia Rudao took two steps to grab the anxious Meng Heng, "Meng Shuai, the thunderbolt can only be used once, and the second time I'm afraid it won't be very effective, and what does the mouth temperature not spend the most relied on?" ”
"Tens of thousands of cavalry, of course!"
"Meng Shuai is smart, without the tens of thousands of Mongolian iron horses, he doesn't need to rely on those foot soldiers, even if he wants to leave, it depends on whether we let him go!"
