The Great Song Dynasty has signed many treaties over the years, and most of them were signed when the enemy's soldiers pressed the border. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info As for the reason, there are too few backbone people in the court, and there are too many surrender factions.

Wu Yashi's strategy was the same, the navy continued to pursue, scaring the Great Song and asking Zhao Gou to make a request for peace.

And the smart Zhao Shuo, after Wu Yashi touched it lightly, immediately thought of this.

With a strategy, Zhao Shuo immediately began to implement it. Zhang Chujiu was next to him, and Zhao Shuo directly issued an order, asking Zhang Chujiu to immediately send someone to Zhao Cheng.

Facing the fleeing Great Song Water Army, Zhao Cheng did not choose to pursue, after all, his losses were not small, and he was too tired.

After returning to Dengzhou, Ruan Xiaoqi returned the fleet to Zhao Cheng and returned to Liangshanbo. Zhao Cheng knew that even if he asked Ruan Xiaoqi to stay, Ruan Xiaoqi would also return to Liangshan, so Zhao Cheng did not stay, he chose to send him off.

After sending Ruan Xiaoqi away, Zhao Cheng wrote down the process of the war in a notebook and sent it back to Chang'an. In the following days, he waited except to rest.

Resting is because he is too tired, and waiting is because he knows very well that this battle did not meet Zhao Shuo's requirements.

They disguised themselves as pirates and went out, first, to harass the surrounding Mongolian and Song sailors.

After being calculated, Zhao Shuo mobilized all the ships to the rescue, and used the latest artillery, countless small shells, one musket, and one bullet.

Zhao Shuo made such a big determination, obviously wanting to finish his work in one battle and kill the Mongolian naval army and the Great Song naval army.

But as a result, the Mongolian navy was disabled, and the Great Song navy fled, which was too far from Zhao Shuo's idea.

Zhao Cheng lay on the deck, looking at the clear blue sky, muttering to himself. "What will the prince do? Is it a penalty, or something else? It stands to reason that it is time to come down! ”

After muttering a little, Zhao Cheng got up slowly, and the more the will did not come down, the more worried he became.

"My lord, the will has arrived." Zhu Tian trotted and went to the deck.

Zhao Shuo will never send officials here, but use Zhang Chujiu's intelligence system to send it directly.

"What do you mean......" Zhao Cheng asked with a little worry.

Zhu Tian saluted Zhao Cheng. "Congratulations, congratulations."

Zhao Cheng was a little puzzled, but did not speak. He just looked at Zhu Tian like that, waiting for Zhu Tian to continue.

"My lord, the prince has made you a lieutenant general." Zhu Tian saw that Zhao Cheng was silent, and said the reason to himself. "You can be the first lieutenant general. Na Juzheng, who followed the prince to fight in the south and the north, made countless meritorious contributions, and is still a major general, and is the only major general. And my lord, now he has been promoted to lieutenant general all of a sudden, which shows that the prince is still satisfied with our naval battle. ”

This result was something Zhao Cheng didn't expect. He came to Zhu Tian in a few steps, took the secret letter that Zhu Tian was holding, and looked at it, he wanted to confirm it for himself.

The secret letter is very simple, the meritorious personnel reported by Zhao Cheng were all promoted to the first rank, like Zhu Tian and Chen Yong, and they were all promoted to captains.

Among the people who reported, there was no name of Zhao Cheng, but Zhao Shuo gave him an exceptional reward. Directly from the captain to the major general, he was promoted to lieutenant general. This is what Zhao Cheng didn't expect.

After reading the secret letter, Zhao Cheng knelt on the ground in the direction of Chang'an, burst into tears, and couldn't cry.

"My lord, the prince still has a secret letter." Zhu Tian picked up Zhao Cheng and took out another secret letter.

Zhao Cheng was stunned, this was another thing that he didn't expect. Now that the navy has just experienced a big battle, after being rewarded for meritorious deeds, it should be time to rest. But Zhao Shuo even sent a superstition.

This secret letter is not written in everything with the secret letter of reward, and it is clear that the two are completely different.

couldn't write everything with the reward, and gave him an exceptional reward, and a bad feeling arose from Zhao Cheng's heart.

"What do you mean?" Zhao Cheng said with some concern. "It's not going to be for us to continue to fight at sea!"

At this time, Zhu Tian also had a wry smile on his face. "My lord, it's worse than that."

As he spoke, Zhu Tian handed the secret letter to Zhao Cheng. "The prince let us go to sea to pursue the escaped Great Song Water Army!"

"What?" The worst result that Zhao Cheng guessed was to go to sea to investigate, and as for the pursuit of the Great Song Army, he had never thought about it.

"What do you mean?" Zhao Cheng read the secret letter while chattering. "Pursuing the Great Song Naval Army, they are not damaged at all, with our current strength, what can we do to catch up, the best result is to lose both."

Speaking of which, Zhao Cheng tore up the secret letter and threw it aside. "What the hell is the prince thinking? How can you chase it! ”

"The prince has always been far-sighted, let us attack, it should have a deep meaning." Zhu Tiandao.

"Whew~!" Exhaling a breath of turbidity, Zhao Cheng gritted his teeth and said. "In that case, let's chase."

Zhu Tian didn't speak, he looked at Zhao Cheng, waiting for Zhao Cheng's order.

"Gather all the ships that can move, all the artillery and shells together, and all the officers and men who can move will go to sea with them." Zhao Cheng gave the order.

Zhao Cheng gathered more than 20 large ships and more than 50 small boats, and marched all the way south along the coastline.

If he wanted to catch up with the Great Song Water Army, Zhao Cheng and Ben didn't have much hope. After all, it has been several days since the Great Song Dynasty sailors fled south. The Great Song Navy is desperately fleeing south, and now it is pursuing, and it is impossible to have a chance to catch up.

Zhao Shuo was talking about pursuit, but the meaning of the words was to hit the Great Song Navy hard. In this case, it is not a bad idea to launch an attack on the other side of the port in front of it.

Zhao Cheng speculated that after the Great Song naval army fled south, it would inevitably disperse to various ports to rest, and he concentrated all the ships, which formed a local advantage.

It is not impossible to break through each and win.

In order to achieve the effect of the surprise attack, after passing through the mouth of the Huai River, Zhao Cheng ordered the fleet to make a detour away from the coastline and to the sea.

After sailing for a few more days, Zhao Cheng gave the order and rushed to the coastline. And ordered that as soon as the coastline was reached, no matter where it was, a direct attack.

It's also a port, but it's not too big. For these, Zhao Cheng didn't care about it, what he wanted was an attack, and the size of the port was no different to him.

The artillery attacked directly from a long distance, and the port soon turned into a sea of fire, and this kind of small port had no ability to resist in the first place.

After destroying a small port, Zhao Cheng's sailors broke the waves, and then continued south, looking for a second unlucky location.
