The fighting spirit of Wuliang Hetai was instantly ignited. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Not to mention the victory, he also got a large amount of grain and grass, which is the most happy thing for Wuliang Hetai.

Although the way of marching and fighting has changed, but the Mongolian iron cavalry still maintains the style of rapid marching, in order to avoid slowing down the rhythm of the march, the soldiers carry not much grain and grass, and after entering Xingyuan Mansion and Bazhou, raising grain and grass is not as simple as imagined, the surrounding villages are almost invisible to the people, and the crops in the fields are almost harvested, you must know that no matter how strong the combat effectiveness of the Mongolian iron cavalry is, if there is no support of grain and grass, it is also in vain.

Unexpectedly, the 2,000 soldiers of the Song army were exterminated, and the grain and grass obtained were enough to support the tens of thousands of troops for about a month.

The scouts sent to reconnoiter everywhere and found no other Song troops, which means that the Song troops on the periphery were all wiped out, and then the army could concentrate on attacking Bazhou City.

The task of Wuliang Hetai is still to guard the periphery.

The Mongolian iron cavalry is extremely brave in the field combat, its impact force of the general army is unstoppable, these years the Mongolian iron cavalry into the Central Plains combat opportunities are not many, most of the combat tasks are undertaken by the new annexed army, and the main task of the Mongolian iron cavalry is to march westward, on the one hand to deal with the rebellion of Abrigo, and on the other hand, to expand more territory to the west.

This time, Wuliang Hetai led tens of thousands of Mongolian iron cavalry into Sichuan to fight, which is very rare.

It should be said that the two of them, Claw Du and Wuliang Hetai, were still a little cautious, and learned that Liu Yuanzhen was beheaded and the new annexed army under his command was almost wiped out, and the two also secretly discussed whether to write a letter to the Great Khan, imploring the Great Khan to send more troops to defeat the Song army stationed in Sichuan.

In particular, the identities of the two are a little special, as the claw capital of the Mongolian prince, there is no chance to become a marshal to lead the troops to fight on weekdays, and Wuliang Hetai has been neglected for a long time, and finally has this opportunity.

However, the two finally decided not to write such a recital, believing that with the 50,000 troops under their command, they would be able to completely defeat the Song army in Sichuan, so that the two would be able to prove their ability.

Sending 10,000 Mongolian iron cavalry to be responsible for operations on the periphery was also a decision made by the Claw capital and the Uliang Hetai.

This shows the importance and caution of the two in this battle.

After exterminating the Song army and obtaining a large amount of grain and grass, the tens of thousands of Mongolian iron cavalry led by Wuliang Hetai did not go in the direction of the Bazhou Prefecture, but continued to patrol and guard at a distance of about 30 miles from the Bazhou Prefecture.

Wuliang Hetai's move was not superfluous, and the army under his command had completely cut off the retreat of the Song army in Bazhou City.

And after this battle, Wuliang Hetai felt a lot more stable, in his opinion, the combat effectiveness of the Song army was not strong at all, the so-called Liu Yuanzhen was killed, and the news that the army under his command was almost completely annihilated, there must be a fabricated part.

To put it bluntly, Wuliang Hetai believed that the Song army was still a rabble, and by chance, it would be able to seize the entire Chengdu Fulu, as long as the Mongolian iron cavalry was dispatched, the Song army would definitely be defeated, and the lost territory could be completely recovered.

Wuliang Hetai also regretted that if the number of Mongol iron cavalry under his command was more numerous and the supply of grain and grass was sufficient, he was confident that he would defeat all the Song troops stationed in Sichuan, and even capture Diaoyu City.

The claw capital also got the report of Wuliang Hetai for the first time.

In the letter, Wuliang Hetai revealed a strong confidence, which of course he felt.

That is, after receiving the letter from Wuliang Hetai, Jadu's confidence was also more sufficient, and he ordered his army to speed up the pace of marching, striving to encircle the city of Bazhou in the fastest time.

On 24 August, the vanguard had arrived outside the city of Bazhou.

The Song army stationed in the city of Bazhou had no intention of going out of the city to fight, but the number of sergeants guarding the city wall increased.

When it was almost dark, the claws arrived outside the city of Bazhou.

The tent of the Chinese army was quickly set up, and the order of the claw capital was also issued at the same time, and the army rested for a day, starting with the attack on the 26th.

With the issuance of the order, Deputy Marshal Zhang Rou began to step up preparations, many siege equipment, and how to arrange troops, etc., all need to be worried.

At the same time, the claw capital made public the letter of Wuliang Hetai, so that all the officers of more than 100 households in the army knew about it, and these officers informed the many sergeants below, which meant that the Song army was vulnerable.

According to the usual practice, the claw also issued two orders, one was to send a special person to shoot a letter to the Song army in the city, asking the Song army in the city to open the city gate and surrender, and the other was to tell many officers that after the capture of the city, they could be free to play for three days.

Claw has already planned to slaughter the city, he doesn't care about the lives of the Han people, the army goes all the way, and the places where they pass are not a single crop, and the sergeants treat the Han people mercilessly, after robbing everything, all of them are killed, as for the women who are robbed, after the sergeant vents, they are also killed.

Trebuchets, ladders, ladders, chariots, and other siege equipment were all ready.

Zhang Rou's ability to command the army to fight is indeed good, and in just one day, all these siege equipment are ready.

In the city of Bazhou.

Zhang Rou listened to the scout's report expressionlessly.

The entire Bazhou city was surrounded by the Mongolian army again, but this time the Mongolian army was violent, and it seemed that it was determined to take the state city, when the scout handed over the persuasion letter of the Mongolian army commander Claw, Zhang Rou's face showed a sneering look, he would never surrender, even if he fought to the last moment.

The letter of surrender was torn to shreds and thrown to the ground.

The atmosphere in the city was also not very good, and no sergeant was willing to die.

At the beginning, the soldiers of the imperial army in Xingyuan Mansion were obviously stationed in Hezhou, and only a small number of them were stationed in Bazhou, but recently, Zhang Jue sent all the troops into the city of Bazhou, which was obviously preparing to fight to the death with the Mongolian army.

The last time I defended the state city of Bazhou, I experienced a Jedi counterattack, and the Mongolian army was forced to retreat at the last moment, but this time it was not necessarily.

Including Zhang Rou is this idea, when the imperial army of Xingyuan Mansion just began to enter the state city of Bazhou, a large number of people in the city began to take the initiative to evacuate, the news is impossible to hide, and the people already know that the Mongolian army is going to attack the state city again.

The distrust of the people in the city towards the army made Zhang Rou very helpless, and the people's move was also a heavy blow to the sergeants, who were obviously here to defend the state city, but they could not get the support of the people.

Soon, the officers who were ready to be sent to the state government were gathered again.

The deployment in the city has already been completed, and the 25,000 soldiers are divided into five parts, of which the number of sergeants at the south gate is the largest, with 15,000 men, and the north gate, west gate, and east gate are guarded by 2,000 sergeants, and the state government is guarded by 1,000 sergeants, and the remaining 1,000 sergeants are responsible for patrolling the city and maintaining law and order.

After the many officers arrived, Zhang Rou pointed to the debris on the ground.

"I have written a letter from Claw, asking us to open the city gate and surrender, so that your lives can be saved, I have torn up the letter, do not accept the threat of Claw, and hope that your brothers will be like me, desperately defend the state city and defeat the Mongol Tartars."

"Like the last time we defended the city, this time we have only one way to choose, once the city is captured by the Mongol Tatars, I will fight to the last moment like all my brothers."

"For so many years, my brothers, like me, want to be able to live in peace and stability, but unfortunately we are stationed in Sichuan, there is no such opportunity, the Mongolian Tatars do not want us to be at peace at all times, we can only desperately defend our homeland, after this battle, I will find a way to let the older sergeants in the army leave the army and return home, since they entered the army, they have not had the opportunity to see their families, which is unfair to them."

"The Mongolian Tartars outside the city are violent, this time they are thinking that they must capture the city, but unfortunately they forgot that there are more than 20,000 brothers stationed in the city of our Xingyuan Mansion Imperial Army, our brothers will not agree, they will definitely be able to protect the city of Zhuzhou."

"According to the scout's reconnaissance, I judge that the Mongolian Tatars will attack tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, this battle is very dangerous, between our brothers, it is possible that we will not see each other after the war, there is no way, the battle is like this, there is always a death, but one thing I can guarantee, no matter how far the battle goes, I will always be with your brothers."

"Military law is ruthless, those who flee from the battle will not be killed, and those who think of surrendering will not be spared."

。。。

The area around the lobby was very quiet, only Zhang Jue's voice, and no one else spoke.

Such an atmosphere is inevitably a little depressing, anyone can feel it, including Zhang Jue, but no one has broken this atmosphere, the war is coming, the bloody storm is coming, at such a moment, any inspirational words seem so hypocritical.

Zhang Jue and others are used to it, and many sergeants are also used to it, and they are used to the indifference of the imperial court.

At this time, there is only one way left.

After Zhang Jue finished speaking, he looked at everyone.

It was black, and no one spoke.

"I know what your brothers think, when the battle begins, I will also send sergeants to try to break through the encirclement of the Mongolian army and go to Chengdu Fulu to deliver a letter to Lord Wu, but I am confident that Lord Wu will strategize and there must be a way to completely defeat the Mongolian army, as long as we can hold on for enough time, the situation of the battle will definitely change significantly."

。。。

There was finally a voice around the lobby, what Zhang Jue said was the most critical, the soldiers of the imperial army of Xingyuan Mansion already knew the courage of the deputy envoy of Wu Zhizhi, and also knew the strength of the imperial army of Hezhou, as long as the imperial army of Hezhou participated in the battle, it would definitely be able to defeat the invading Mongolian Tartars and save the city of Bazhou.
