"First escort the prisoners and war horses to the ship, the whole army retreats one by one, and I will leave a letter for Yan Shi. This number cannot be missing. Zheng Yunming pretended to be serious, which made everyone secretly laugh in their hearts.

When the strict 3,000 iron cavalry arrived at the Kuju Station, it was as quiet as if no one had ever visited before, and if it weren't for the rows of decapitated and stripped corpses displayed in front of the hillside, no one would have believed that there had been an unusually tragic battle here.

The sergeants of the Yan Shi Department drove away the wild dogs that were tearing at their robes and corpses, and found the letters left by Zheng Yunming on Qi Du's corpse, and sent them to Yan Shi for dismantling.

Yan Shi unfolded the letterhead, and Zheng Yunming's still ugly font came into view.

"Coming without reciprocating is not the way of a gentleman. Jun and others visited Jinghu last year and knew the benefits of bamboo and wood artillery. When Chief Hu arrives in Xiangyang again this autumn, how can our army not go out a hundred miles to greet him? The Nine Posts are all destroyed by the cowardly Xue, it is a gift for the Jinghu athletes to meet with the Northern Army, and the city of Xiangyang should send the troops to meet with the bald flowers on the other day.

The more Yan Shi looked at it, the more angry he became, and threw the letter at the generals under him.

"It's a slap in the face! No, this is a slap in the face of the Jeonbuk Army! He shouted loudly with a calm face: "If you don't break Xiangyang and capture Zheng Yunming and Mobei alive, who will clear the revenge for the deceased of the Nine Posts!" ”

The system made the shogunate to do office work carefully inspected the level of braids, and the bad habit of killing good and risking merit in the Song army was actually a continuation since the disaster in the late Tang Dynasty to the present, no, maybe it is a tradition that the whole world cannot prohibit since there are armored soldiers in the world, although the state has repeatedly banned it, but with little effect. Almost all generals inevitably have more or less used irrelevant people to pretend to be enemies to receive merit.

But this time it can be clearly determined that all the ranks in the hall are real enemies.

Zhao Kui and Zheng Yunming sat in the hall, ignoring the terrifying scenes in the courtyard, and talked about this bold encirclement and annihilation action.

"To be honest, the country has officially been at war with Mongolia for more than a year, and it is not without victory, such as Cao Youwen in Qingye Plain, such as Shumou in Wulipo, but it is unprecedented to advance so boldly to the north and uproot the enemy's elite in front of the army." Zhao Kui obviously admired this bold and shrewd action.

One of his subordinates suddenly twisted his beard and said disdainfully: "First surrounded by chariots, and then won with foot combat and the Mongols won a decisive victory, I am afraid that such a battle will not be encountered in a hundred battles, although the Zheng Guanren are scheming, it is just a fluke to steal a victory, if the enemy reinforcements arrive sooner, I am afraid that the whole army will end up in a rout." ”

Speaking is the newly transferred Jing'e capital commander Wan Wensheng, he is the first person under Zhao Kui's account to raise the official rank, although now he is stationed in Xiangyang with less than 10,000 people, and his strength is not as strong as Zheng Yunming, and he is from Huaixi to Tun, and belongs to the guest army from the identity, and Zheng Yunming is an out-and-out local in Jinghu. But he is absolutely qualified to talk about Zheng Yunming's mistakes in front of Zhao Kui.

Zheng Yunming still smiled and didn't refute, but it didn't mean that all of his subordinates could stand the excitement of Wandutong.

Bai Yijie smiled beside Zheng Yunming and said: "Deputy Dutong Zheng once told us before he set out on the expedition that this battle will lay the foundation for the Great Song Dynasty's victory over Mongolia, I don't know what Wandutong thinks of this statement." ”

Wan Wensheng was stunned for a moment, and immediately laughed and said: "Even if it is a Zheng official, this statement is too absurd. ”

Zhao Kui pondered for a moment and said to Wang Deng: "Regarding this article, what does Commander Wang think. ”

Wang Deng had been thinking about this question before he set out on the expedition, and he had already known the answer, and replied respectfully: "I thought this sentence was a third true. ”

Zhao Kui said in surprise: "How can you say that it is one-third?" ”

"The emperor of the Jin people once said that the northern captives only hold horsepower, because of the ingenuity of China. The advantage of the cavalry they relied on could be vividly reflected in the battle of a thousand miles, the battle of a hundred miles, or a face-to-face battle. When fighting face-to-face, the enemy cavalry rushed and swung resolutely, broke our infantry formation, and then pursued and killed, but as long as our army was disciplined and the formation was tight, it was delusional for the cavalry to want to defeat our army lightly. In the battle of 100 miles, the enemy can use the flickering of cavalry to mobilize our army, consume our army in the round-trip run, and then take advantage of the situation to defeat us. This is the most powerful point of the Mongols, and it is always necessary for everyone to deal with it carefully and not fall into the trap of the enemy. But there is still a powerful place for the enemy's cavalry group, which can only be wielded on the battlefield for thousands of miles, that is, they can concentrate their forces as they want, attack a place where we are scattered and defended, and I will divide the other, and the officers and troops will be undefeated? In such a fight, 10,000 Tartar cavalry is enough for my 50,000 infantry army, and our army is controlled everywhere, while the enemy comes and goes freely. ”

"Zheng Vice Dutong said that the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty's victory over the Mongols came from this point."

Zheng Yunming didn't show any expression on his face, but he was very happy in his heart, if anyone among the generals of Jinghu could understand the subtleties in it, he probably pushed Wang Deng and Yang Luo.

Wang Deng continued: "The so-called northerners take horses, and southerners take boats. The Mongols fought the world on horseback, and we also have our own advantages, which is the power of the boat. I think that's what Vice President Zheng cares about. As long as we adhere to the principle of using ships to fight from the water, we will not be afraid of the enemy's concentrated attack on the river, on the contrary, because we have the power of ships, we can concentrate our forces to attack the scattered Tartar troops, so that we can divide one and the other, and this is the real enlightenment of this nine-fold post victory to our army. ”

"But that's easier said than done." Zheng Yunming continued Wang Deng's words and said: "To use the mobile combat of the boat, first require the Great Song Dynasty to have a naval division that is absolutely invincible on the river, otherwise the Tartars will intercept our army with a boat division on the water, and if it cannot be unimpeded, there will be no possibility of mobile combat." ”

Wu Qianha laughed: "Shumou, although I am a literati, I also know the benefits of the Great Song Dynasty naval army, which is unparalleled in the world, how can I be defeated by barbarians from the desert?"

"Underestimating the enemy is a taboo for the general." Zheng Yunming said sternly: "It is true that the officers and soldiers of the Mongolian headquarters are ignorant of water warfare, but this does not prevent them from recruiting sailors in Hebei, Henan and Shandong, searching for craftsmen, and building warships. The enemy's water power is growing day by day. Maybe now Wokotai has no concept of water warfare, but the commanders of the front line are actively preparing for the naval army as a help to attack the Great Song Dynasty, what is even more reassuring is that it is precisely because the Mongols have no concept of water warfare, so they do not have any constraints on the naval tactics, last year they had broken our naval army several times with the bow and arrow of the cavalry on the shore with the tactics of the warship, this time, I heard that they are urging craftsmen to build ballistas as auxiliary weapons for water warfare, and the tactics of three-sided attack will be even more powerful, On the water this autumn, it is not yet known who will win and who will lose. ”

"What we have to do is not only to win the water battle, but also to ensure that we have a minimum field capability, and strategically we can do it ten to one, but we also need our team to have the basic elements to be able to defeat at close range, no, it is to annihilate most of the enemy cavalry facing the army, does our army really have this ability? Ask yourself, to do this, most of the army of the Great Song Dynasty still has a long way to go. ”

"And the most important point is that the generals must have the determination to resolutely attack. After the southern crossing, the army was sluggish, and the generals only tried to defend themselves, without the slightest spirit of taking the initiative to attack the enemy, which was the most fatal. I do not doubt that when we are surrounded, under the strict orders and supervision of the imperial court, there will be a steady stream of reinforcements to Xiangyang, but once the army advances to the enemy's occupied area and spreads the war to the enemy's city, how many troops are willing to take the initiative to meet it? Of course, this is also the result of many years of army weakness, but relying on defense will not be able to achieve the final victory over the Mongols after all, before the final victory, we must train a strong naval army, a 6 army worthy of 6 battles, and a group of generals who dare to attack. At that time, it will be necessary to have a good confrontation with the Mongols on the battlefield. ”

But even Zheng Yunming doesn't know if this day can really come.

Since the backyard of the Jing'e Metropolitan Division has had a hostess, it has been much neater and cleaner than before. The scholar generals and intermediate generals who had broken into the back hall at will in the past finally reined in, and only after reporting in front of the door did they enter in order. When I saw Lai Ruyue, I didn't talk as freely as before, and I always looked a little more restrained.

When Zheng Yunming and Wang Deng came to the backyard, they met Lai Ruyue holding Han Feng's younger brother Jiulang chatting with the visiting Xiangyang Divine Doctor Qin Langzhong's little lady of the Qin family, the little lady of the Qin family saw Zheng Yunming returning, stood up and said with a light smile, and then saw Wang Deng, who was standing heroically behind him, with a burst of red glow flying on his face, and turned around and ran into the inner room.

Zheng Yunming turned his head and glanced at Wang Deng, and Wang Deng's face was not embarrassed.

He had to change the topic stiffly, pointed to the other shaker in front of Zheng Lai's and asked, "Which baby is this?" ”

In the shaker, a baby sleeps soundly wrapped in soft cotton cloth.

Lai Ruyue raised her eyebrows and said to Zheng Yunming: "I was about to talk about this matter to the officials." Today, the little lady of the Qin family went out to deliver a woman in Nanzhang County, and the delivery was very smooth, but it was a girl who was born. The family immediately decided to drown the child in the river. ”
