PS: Let's have a shift today, and tomorrow afternoon on the wireless potential push, so tomorrow I am ready to explode three shifts, a shift at half past eleven, a shift at fourteen o'clock, and a shift at fifteen o'clock

"This time I can be comfortable." Su Liuyi walked slowly into the mansion of Lianzhou City, looking at the not open lobby, but his mood was surprisingly good.

Outside, the sky is also clear, although the spring breeze in the south has not yet blown all over the two Huai, but the ice and snow have all melted into streams, and the heaven and earth, which was once covered with snow for a long time, finally show its original barrenness.

However, Rao is like this, walking around the corners of the city, it is still difficult to find a touch of green, as if the wind and clouds from the north, even if they have retreated, still echo in the city, weighing heavily on the hearts of people and all living beings.

Zhang Shijie looked at Su Liuyi, who was covered in mud, and immediately understood that this dedicated and dedicated commander must have gone around the front camp again. It's snowing season, and the city is fine, but the outside of the city is still full of mud.

"Huaidu has been quiet lately." Zhang Shijie casually looked at the map behind him, the black line that had been pressed on Sichuan, Shu, Xiangyang and Lianghuai, although it had not changed, but everyone who saw the map would feel that the line was inexorably fading.

Once this line symbolized the 150,000 army of Xiangyang, symbolized the Tongchuan Mansion Liu Quanbu who knew the roots of the Southern Song Dynasty, and symbolized the Huaidu departments that were ready to move along the Huaibei line, but now not to mention that the 150,000 main force of Ashu has disappeared, Liu Cheng has put away his minions in Tongchuan Mansion, and even the sentry cavalry of the Southern Song Dynasty can go directly to the outside of Tongchuan Mansion, and in Lianghuai. Huaidu's attack was also crushed by the Zhen Navy, and the entire defense line was on. The Southern Song Dynasty felt that it had already occupied an absolute advantage, while the Mongols were trying their best to shrink the defense line and concentrate their forces.

"I can't tolerate him not being quiet." Su Liuyi couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Although the battle of Lianhai caused heavy casualties to the Zhenhai Navy, it still made Huaidu honest in the end. However, Rao is like this, Huaidu, as the commander of the entire Huaibei Mongolian tribes, still has forty or fifty thousand combatable troops under his command, but because there are too many cities that need to be defended, they have to be scattered and difficult to concentrate.

Zhang Shijie nodded, Huai Du has been squatting honestly in the opposite few cities in the past few days, and the two sides only have occasional "exchanges" with the sentinels. However, apparently, the Mongolian sentry cavalry also once received the order of Huaidu, so whenever it encountered the Song army sentry cavalry, it was often taken to take the initiative to avoid, and the Song army sentry cavalry did not know whether the Mongolian cavalry wanted to lure the enemy deeper, so it would not pursue, resulting in a rare "peace" between the two sides in the middle area, and the sentry horses that came and went even ignored each other in the end.

"Latest received news. I hope this time Jinyiwei didn't go wrong. Zhang Shijie pointed to the letter on the table, "Our opponent will not be Huaidu soon." ”

"Oh?" Su Liuyi was startled, and immediately grabbed the letter. A cursory glance, "Shi Tianze is in charge, Boyan and Huaidu are deputies?" ”

Zhang Shijie nodded: "But Shi Tianze is already old." Unless these two Huai are already in extreme danger, they will not let him come. In other words, the real commander is actually Boyan, and this Boyan is only in his early thirties. Although the official worships Dr. Guanglu, but he has been following Ah Shu to fight in Xiangfan, and he is the most valued person by Ah Shu, Jin Yiwei suspects that Ah Shu has probably recommended Boyan to Kublai Khan before, so this time Kublai Khan sent Boyan to preside over the battle between the two Huai. ”

"Originally fighting in Xiangfan?" Su Liuyi was a little surprised, and immediately remembered, "I really have an impression of this person, isn't it the Boyan who stayed in Lumen Mountain and later escaped with that Zhang Hongfan?" In order to hunt him down, the former commander Jiang Du almost died in battle, and he was definitely not an easy character to deal with. ”

Zhang Shijie stretched out his hand and lightly pointed on the map: "There is no news that Boyan is about to take office, but the northern sentinel has found that the cities in Huaibei are fine, and the infantry cavalry stationed in various places in Mongolia in southern Shandong has begun to assemble, and at the same time, more than 10,000 new troops have been issued in Henan and Shandong." ”

"Sichuan Shu is defeated, Xiangfan is defeated, this time it is the turn of Lianghuai?" Su Liuyi frowned suddenly, although the Tianwu Army in Xiangyang had achieved a great victory, but this did not mean that the more than 10,000 people in the town navy in Lianghuai had the ability to face the fifty or sixty thousand Mongolian infantry cavalry assembled!

Su Liuyi was silent for a moment, his eyes drifted from the two Huai on the map to Jinghu, and looked at Zhang Shijie: "Maybe this time it won't be your turn for me to have a headache, that Li Anfu has been honestly squatting in Ezhou for so long, it's time to come back, I don't believe that he will honestly nest under the nose of the envoy." ”

Hearing Su Liuyi's emotion, Zhang Shijie couldn't help but smile bitterly. If it is said that the most aggrieved in the entire battle of Xiangyang is not the turn of Liu Shiyong and Sun Huchen, the two brothers and sisters of the Xingzhou Naval Division, it should be Li Tingzhi and Xia Gui, the two Huainan generals.

Originally, 50,000 or 60,000 Huainan elites set sail to the west, but did not carry enough grain and grass, of course, because of the suddenness of the incident, the Huainan army brought back and forth in Huainan in an attempt to confuse the Mongolian infantry in Huaibei, and it was impossible to carry enough grain and grass. At that time, according to Li Tingzhi's idea, the left and west of Ezhou were the strategic points of the Southern Song Dynasty's hard work, and naturally there was an abundance of grain and grass, and when the time came, the Huai army could go north after replenishing grain and grass near Ezhou.

But who would have thought that because the Tianwu Army and the Ezhou garrison soldiers went north one after another, the Huai Army, which was a step late, would have been able to get not much grain and grass, and Fan Wenhu, who stayed in Ezhou, got Jia Nidao's hint and had been trying his best to hinder the transfer of grain and grass, so that the battle of Xiangyang was until the end, and the Huai Army could only stay in Ezhou in a suffocated nest and could not move.

(Author's note: This is also the case in history, Li Tingzhi was full of ambition to lead the Huai army to Ezhou, but because it was difficult to replenish the grain and grass, and Fan Wenhu tried every means to delay, the Huai army that arrived in the middle of the Xiangyang War until the end of the Xiangyang War did not really come in handy, it can be said that the fall of Xiangyang has a certain relationship with the delay in the rescue of the Huai army, and Fan Wenhu, who made a hindrance from it, is even more difficult to escape. ）

"The town navy is still taking a break these days, and as for Huaidu, he has made those little calculations. Just leave them alone for now. Su Liuyi said softly, his eyes blazing.

Zhang Shijie was stunned. Gritting his teeth fiercely, he also knew that doing so was actually leaving more danger to the main force of the Huai army that was about to return. But now, for the sake of protecting the town navy, he and Su Liuyi have no choice.

The town navy had to retreat before the Mongols could raise enough troops, horses, and food and grass. Otherwise, once more than 100,000 troops on both sides fight along the Huaishui, then the town navy, which has only more than 10,000 people left, wants to get out again, it will be more difficult than ascending to the sky.

Now the various departments of the Tianwu Army have become bigger one after another, and Su Liuyi and Zhang Shijie, who are the oldest in the Tianwu Army, say nothing to wipe out the Zhenhai Navy. After all, constantly expanding troops and territory by dividing troops is Ye Yingwu's established policy, and the town navy is the first step in this attempt. And now the Shence Army and the Shenwei Army, which have been formed one after another with the spring breeze after the Xiangyang War, is the second step out.

The battle of the Zhen Navy in Huaibei has shown that this is a good decision, but whether it is Ye Yingwu, Su Liuyi and Zhang Shijie, they cannot tolerate and accept that after the entire Tianwu Army has been "separated", what changes suddenly occur in the Zhen Navy, which is too heavy a blow to Ye Yingwu's prestige in the top echelons of the Tianwu Army.

"Now give the order down, all the departments gather the sentry horses, and don't provoke the Mongol Tartars casually if you have anything to do." Su Liuyi said softly, stretched out his hand and patted lightly on the position of Zhenjiang Mansion. "Our days in Huaibei are not short, it's time to go back. Lest the Jia Xianggong in the court in the family toss any troubles, after all, there is no navy in this town, and no one knows if the ministers in the court have any plans in their hearts. ”

Who in the Tianwu Army doesn't know it. In the eyes of Jia Xianggong in the court, he is not a thorn in the flesh, as long as there is any omission in the Tianwu Army. Jia Yidao and Weng Yinglong must have been like vicious wolves that smelled blood, and they pounced on them. Now Zhenjiang Mansion can be calm for a month. Already thankfully.

This is the official in charge of the Southern Song Dynasty court, Zhang Shijie suddenly remembered what Ye Yingwu said before. "Fighting insiders insiders, fighting outsiders outside" is true. I don't know if this is the sorrow of the entire Southern Song Dynasty, such a dynasty that has been corroded by the pillars of the sky, can still survive in this corner of the place, it has to be said that it is a miracle.

If there was no Ye Yingwu and Tianwu Army in the Battle of Xiangyang this time, Zhang Shijie and Su Liuyi could almost imagine what the ending would be.

In the face of such a capable Southern Song Dynasty court, even if Li Tingzhi would not come, Su Liuyi and Zhang Shijie had to think about going back to watch the matter of the old nest at home.

With a heavy mood, Zhang Shijie slowly walked to the door, subconsciously looking south, the clear sky stretched into the distance, and the white clouds accompanied the sun that was not warm at the turn of winter and spring. Outside, the eaves were wet, and drops of water flowed down the tiles.

Jiangnan at this time, I'm afraid it's better to be in spring.

It's time to go back.

――――――――――――――――-

The first touch of sunlight gently brushed on his face, Ye Yingwu opened it almost subconsciously, and all he reached out to touch was the soft and warm brocade quilt, and he couldn't help but chuckle, during the entire Xiangyang War, even in Yingzhou, he didn't sleep well, and he had been waiting for the development of the war situation in the north, and later led the army to the north, all the way to fight, it was impossible to have a good rest, and he didn't know that he had developed the habit of waking up when he saw the light.

Exhaled a long breath of turbidity, Ye Yingwu cautiously turned his head sideways, and on the other side of the inside, Wan Niang was still asleep deeply, although yesterday the two were not so much tossing as being warm, so they were not very tired, but in the final analysis, Wan Niang is just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, who is not greedy for sleep at this age?

seemed to feel the movement here, Lu Wanyan couldn't help but hum softly, and subconsciously arched Ye Yingwu in the futon, still sleeping soundly. Ye Yingwu shook his head, got up lightly, and tucked the quilt for her, although spring has come now, but it is only early spring, and it is early morning, the weather is naturally still a little cold, Wanniang is originally a beautiful lady in Jiangnan, and it is not good to be infected with the wind cold.

Not to mention that she, the housewife of the Ye family, was the two maids who should be waiting outside, and she was also dizzy and looked like she had just woken up, and when she saw Ye Yingwu walking out energetically, she was almost half scared to death.

Lu Wanyan's personal maid Qingping yawned. Then he shook his little head, and suddenly realized that the person standing in front of him was not the big official in the family. The little face suddenly turned pale with fright, and he didn't know what to say.

Ye Yingwu rolled his eyes: "Aren't you stupid girl?" Go and get so-and-so's coat. And be quiet, don't wake up Wan Niang. ”

Several maids were completely awake and hurriedly went. And Ye Yingwu couldn't help but touch his nose, could it be that he, the head of the family, looked so terrifying?

The door was pushed open, the morning light came to his face, there was no one in the courtyard, and he took the coat handed over by Qingping, Ye Yingwu didn't need these hurried maids to wait, he put on his own and walked straight to the front yard.

If the backyard is still asleep at this time. If it is extraordinarily quiet, stepping through the moon cave door in the middle is no longer a different scene. In the open space in front of the council hall, more than ten Ye Yingwu guards were exercising in the morning under the leadership of Xiao Yangzi.

Although it was still very cold in the early morning, these soldiers were all naked, and because no one came and went, they were not afraid of the maids who came to walk around in the backyard to see them, or their angular muscles were clearly showing off. I wish people would see it.

Ever since Xiao Yangzi, a boy who was only sixteen or seventeen years old, officially became the commander of Ye Yingwu's personal guards—although Ye Yingwu's personal guards in a narrow sense meant protecting Ye Mansion and the twenty or thirty soldiers who accompanied Ye Yingwu on the expedition—Ye Yingwu's personal guards had already developed the habit of morning exercises.

Of course, morning exercise was originally the tradition of the Tianwu Army, and the most elite Baizhan in the Tianwu Army had to get up two quarters of an hour earlier than the other soldiers for morning exercises, as if they thought that this was not enough. Xiao Yangzi ruthlessly advanced the time to half an hour, so that when Ye Yingwu came to see it now, most people were already sweating profusely.

Ye Yingwu's personal guards also had no complaints about this. After all, when Ye Yingwu was injured in Suizhou and almost died, it was a great shame for them. Now only harder training can prevent this from happening again.

"Hah!" Xiao Yangzi jumped up violently, and the wooden knife in his hand slammed into the shield of one of the guards. Neither the wooden knife nor the shield could withstand this level of impact, one broke in response, and a deep crack appeared in the other. The guard was obviously stunned for a moment, but Xiao Yangzi did not hesitate at all, grabbed this rare gap, kicked on the shield, and the wooden shield that had cracks broke off with a bang, and Xiao Yangzi stepped forward and kicked hard, and the guard fell to the ground with a muffled snort.

Exhaled lightly, obviously Xiao Yangzi himself was a little frightened just now, but fortunately, he finally relied on the killing skills honed on the battlefield, or the killing potential, to save the day. Several guards stepped forward to support their companions, while others looked at their own commanders in awe and admiration.

Xiao Yangzi clapped his hands, stepped forward and gently rubbed the subordinate who had just been kicked, while looking at the surrounding guards: "You have to remember that on the battlefield, even if the blade is broken, you can't stop your attack, otherwise it will be equivalent to giving the other party a chance to counterattack." ”

"Well said!" Before the guards could react, there was a sudden sound behind them.

Ye Yingwu, who was dressed in a coat, stood under the corridor, with a look of appreciation on his face. And Xiao Yangzi and the others were taken aback, and hurriedly bowed to Ye Yingwu. Seeing Ye Yingwu's smile, Xiao Yangzi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, if he missed just now, I don't know what Ye Yuanjun would think of himself.

Ye Yingwu stepped forward slowly: "What you Tian Commander (Xiaoyangzi's real name is Tian Xiaoyang) said just now is not wrong at all, at the critical juncture on the battlefield, it will not leave you a chance to be afraid and hesitate, when you find that you have nothing to do, as a member of the Tianwu Army, your first choice is not to retreat obscenely, but to face the difficulties!" ”

As if thinking of something, Ye Yingwu turned to look at the guards again: "I have a question, but I want to ask you, if you meet an opponent with equal strength or even stronger than you on the desperate road, and both of you only have one sword, how will you choose?" ”

All the guards couldn't help but be silent, how should they choose? Maybe I have never encountered such a situation, but as long as I follow Ye Yingwu, a bold commander who has never played cards according to common sense, it is hard to guarantee that there will be times when this kind of thing will happen.

"Xiaoyoko, how would you choose?" Ye Yingwu looked at Xiao Yangzi with a smile.

Xiao Yangzi thought about it, and finally made up his mind and said: "Return to the envoy, if it is a subordinate, the subordinate will draw his sword and rush up, if he wants to die in the sky, he will not die for thousands of years, it is better to fight him!" ”

Ye Yingwu frowned disdainfully, how could anything make this kid say it so cheaply, but he still barely squeezed out a smile, and looked at the guards who seemed to understand: "Brothers, soldiers, you are a member of the Tianwu Army, since the moment the Tianwu Army was established, no one has been afraid of anyone, even if the other party is stronger than us, what's the matter, take out your sword, and fight him, maybe you will find that when you are more ruthless than the enemy, no matter how powerful the enemy is, it is as thin as window paper!" ”

After a pause, Ye Yingwu took a light breath: "When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins." ”

There was a sudden silence in the courtyard, and all the guards looked at Ye Yingwu's gaze, not so much respect, but worship, and ・・・・・・ almost superstitious fanaticism. Ye Yingwu, who was watching, couldn't hold back, so he could only secretly blame himself for pretending to be too much, coughing lightly at the moment, and turned to look at Xiao Yangzi: "There is one more thing." ”

"Please give your command." Xiao Yangzi suddenly straightened his waist and said solemnly, his own envoy has always been speechless, and he has been mentally prepared. (To be continued.) )
