The 55th Episode (1)

Qin Wu, who was covered in arrow sores on his body, didn't even have time to put on his clothes, so he came to the Chinese military tent and sat down, and shouted: "Wang Ziqiu, are you guilty? ”

Wang Ziqiu, who had a bandage wrapped around his arm, stepped forward and bowed down and said loudly: "I'm not wrong! ”

"What did you say when you ordered you to wait for an ambush in the woods north of the city?" Qin Tongzhi looked solemn, as if he was about to kill immediately: "I told you to let the enemy desert and hand it over to the rear team to pursue, why don't you obey the order and force you to fight?" ”

"When the enemy cavalry passed, they were all crowded on the path, and they were crowded with each other, which was a good opportunity for our army to attack. As a warrior, to let go of such an opportunity is to lose one's vocation! Wang Ziqiu's protest was so loud that even the soldiers of the loyal and righteous army waiting outside the tent of the Chinese army could hear it clearly, and many people praised it, maybe only this bold Wang Ziqiu, who often forgot where he lost his life, could roar at the iron-faced and selfless Qin system like this.

Qin Wu sneered: "What about a good opportunity?" You have only a hundred men, blocking the path of thousands of cavalrymen who are preparing to flee for their lives. Won't the Mongols fight with you? What you say is so big, don't expect others to come to the rescue when you are surrounded! ”

Wang Ziqiu still wanted to argue, but Bi Zilun came over and pressed his shoulder: "What else do you want to argue!" You wait for the commander to bring a brigade of men and horses to relieve the siege, so that the commander has been hit by two arrows, what words can you refute! If other generals of the Song people were changed today, your head would have been taken by the Mongol soldiers a long time ago, where would you have the opportunity to stand here and fight back! ”

Qin Wu waved his hand and shouted, "Sir, don't pretend to reprimand and plead for him. It is a matter of duty for the subordinates to be besieged and rescued by the main general, and the two arrows of the Tartars are not a big deal. It's just that if this hairy boy is so keen on wave warfare again, the general's order is regarded as child's play, even if he is not killed today, sooner or later he will die at the hands of the enemy, rather than this, it is better to behead the Ming army first! ”

Bi Zilun laughed in his heart, Qin Wu was never like this when he really wanted to kill people, when he first entered Fancheng and was stationed, he repeatedly ordered that he was not allowed to infringe on the people, and he was not allowed to leave the camp at will. As a result, the unruly loyal army made a mess that night, and the two soldiers ate and drank in the wine shop at night, and did not return to the camp all night.

When the soldiers captured the two criminals and sent them to Qin Wu, Qin Wu only said a cold word, and the heads of the two were hung on the city gate, and the military discipline was immediately solemn. When Qin Wu wanted to kill someone, he wouldn't say a word of nonsense.

As long as he is willing to talk nonsense, there is still room for things to turn around. Bi Zilun bowed his body very deeply, and said earnestly: "Who is not young and frivolous, although this son violated the military order, let me think of his earnest desire to fight, and he can bravely kill the enemy, kill one of the enemy's hundreds of households, and capture the first two people of the brand, and bypass him this time." ”

Qin Wu's original intention was just to teach the young man a lesson, and the arrogance of killing him in the fifty-fifth round was majestic and majestic into the eastward stream (1)

That's it. This young general followed his father and brother to surrender to the Song Dynasty to the south since he was a child, grew up in the military camp, and was not only taken care of by many veterans in the army. It has become the last expectation of these Northland soldiers who have gradually aged in the battle. Even Qin Wu himself hopes that the next generation of the Northern Army can take root in the south, after all, the hometown of the north has become an unattainable dream, and their only hope is that they and their descendants can occupy a place in Jiangnan with their first-class martial arts, just as Han Shizhong, Yue Fei and others did more than a hundred years ago. But for this reason, it is even more important to give strict education to their children. Unlike Han Yue, these northern armies that are now heading south are suspicious in the eyes of the imperial court and the common people. And this is partly because they do not obey military discipline and do not obey the orders of their superiors.

Since it is under the fence, it is even more necessary to know how to advance and retreat, neither to make people feel weak and bullied, nor to be overly arrogant. Even Qin Wu couldn't grasp the subtleties well. But he is one thing certain, Wang Ziqiu's anti-Japanese temperament will bring him big trouble one day, even if his boss is Zheng Yunming. So when he doesn't have a fame, suppress him fiercely, and let him restrain his arrogance. No official of the Southern Dynasty would tolerate the Northern Army violating orders all the time, even if that person was Zheng Yunming.

Qin Wuyan said: "Wang Ziqiu blatantly violated the military order, although it is because of the rarity of fighter planes, he cannot be exempted from punishment for this. In addition to all the merits of today's crimes, except for the post of the vanguard general, he was demoted to a sergeant and stayed in front of the tent to listen to the use, and should have been locked in prison for forty days as a punishment, and when the enemy soldiers were approaching the city, it was the time to employ people, and it was allowed to make meritorious service with the guilt, and if there was a recurrence in the future, the punishment for the two crimes would be doubled! ”

Two guards stepped forward and took the stubborn-eyed Wang Ziqiu down. Bi Zilun looked at his departing back, shook his head and sighed: "One day he will understand that what the ruler has done is for the sake of his future. ”

"Only by holding Fancheng can we say that we have a future." Qin Wu stood up, put on his clothes, and came to the map with an oil lamp, his bronzed skin was reflected in the flickering light, and the years of wind and rain did not make him exhausted, on the contrary, the more fierce the battle, the more aroused his fighting spirit.

"Fancheng is just a barrier to Xiangyang." Qin Wu pointed to the map and said, "There are more than ten well-defended fortresses on the periphery of Xiangyang, but there are only two or three on the periphery of Fancheng. If the Mongols had focused their attack on Fancheng, I don't think we would have been able to hold it for a month with all our might. ”

Bi Zilun shook his head: "According to the order, Fancheng is naturally the priority target, but the Mongols are not stupid. They knew that even if they captured Fancheng, as long as the water 6 and two roads were unblocked, Xiangyang would still be deeply entrenched. What's more, the defenders of Xiangyang will not sit idly by and watch Fancheng being attacked and remain indifferent. After today's battle, it is even more impossible to ignore Zheng Guanren and his army. I expected that this time the Mongols would still concentrate most of their forces to storm Xiangyang, and the fifty-fifth round of the majestic march into the eastward stream (1)

, trying to eliminate the Zheng Guanren first, and then capture Fancheng became a trivial task. ”

"In your opinion, what strategy should Fancheng adopt for the future war?" Qin Wu looked at the map and asked expressionlessly.

"Eight words, stick to the city and keep the door closed." Bi Zilun said without hesitation.

Qin Wu raised his head and looked at his own soldier: "But you just said that if Xiangyang is lost, Fancheng will not be able to defend it."

"For the Southern Dynasties, the importance of Xiangyang is undoubted, they can give up Fancheng, but they will not give up Xiangyang." Bi Zilun said: "How can hundreds of thousands of troops up and down Jinghu sit back and watch Xiangyang being surrounded without rescue? I don't need to worry about this matter in my little Fancheng, and the Southern Dynasty will definitely send its elite to rescue Xiangyang later, we only need to worry about ourselves. ”

"How long do you think this year's war will last?" Qin Wu put the oil lamp on the table and straightened up, usually this meant that he had a plan in his heart, and he was just waiting for Bi Zilun's approval.

Usually the Mongols' strategy for a region will last for a long time, the first raid on the Jin Kingdom and the raid on the Western Xia are autumn invasions, until the return of the summer, as long as they do not encounter particularly fierce resistance, the Mongols must retreat after plundering, and then return to their own station after taking all the things that can be snatched. But Bi Zilun thought about it and said cautiously: "According to my estimate, it will not take three months for the Mongols to go south to Panhuan Jinghu this time. ”

Seeing that Qin Wu did not react, he continued to explain: "Last year, the Mongol army attacked seven prefectures and counties, and the rest of the prefectures and counties were more or less plundered by the Mongols. In addition, since April this year, Zheng Yunming has been urging various states and counties to prepare for clearing the wilderness in the name of Zhao Kui. This year's clearings were more thorough than those in previous years, and even if the Mongols captured Huangzhou, Gwangju, and Fuzhou, they would not be able to plunder as much of the people, animals, and materials as last year. Unless they can break through the river defense and go deep into the south of the Yangtze River to plunder, but I have been to Ezhou to investigate, the river defense force of the Southern Dynasties is still strong and unshakable, not only has it not weakened, but the number of ships has increased. It was not so easy for the Mongols to cross the river. They can't cross the river, and they can't get any oil and water in the north of the river, so it is better to collect their troops early and wait for next year's come. Of course, this qiē was based on the failure of Xiangyang to be attacked by the Mongols, and if Xiangyang fell, the Mongols used the materials in Xiangyang City to go down the river to take Jiangling and Ezhou, and destroyed the entire defense plan of the Southern Dynasties, the situation would be unpredictable. ”

"If it is limited to three months alone, Fancheng's soldiers, food, arrows, gunpowder, and herbs are enough to use. But my only concern is the reinforcements from the south, and now that the Mongols have diverted most of their forces to the south of Xiangyang to plunder, the downstream prefectures and counties are too busy to take care of themselves, and it is likely to delay the process of rescuing Xiangyang. If there are no reinforcements from the downstream, even if Zheng Yunming has great ability, it will be difficult to ensure the safety of Xiangyang in front of more than 100,000 Mongolian troops. ”

After saying these words, Qin Wu Ruo had the fifty-fifth majestic posture and entered the eastward stream (1)

Si knocked on the pennants representing the main force of the Song army in the lower reaches of the Han River on the map: "If Meng Puyu really can't come, what will be the fate of the second city of Xiangfan?" ”

Regardless of whether Qin Wu's worries were sincere or his jokes about Meng Puyu, the first general of the Southern Dynasty. At this time, the guards of the Ma Military Division were absolutely unable to distinguish a single soldier to support Xiangfan, who was lonely upstream. Because they are under pressure like never before.

They faced the soldiers of Zhang Rou, the first general of the 80,000 households of the Han army in the Central Plains. After the Mongol Central Route Army surrounded Xiangyang, Zhang Rou led a part of the troops to carry out a flank sweep. This part of the Mongol army first surrounded De'an with all its strength, and the residents of De'an had already evacuated to the south according to the plan proposed by Bai Yijie.
