Ezhou in the Song Dynasty was not the same city as Ezhou in the New China era. Ezhou in the Song Dynasty was located in what is now Wuhan. When the Song army conquered Huangzhou, Gorten, a Mongolian household stationed in Ezhou, couldn't help but want to retreat, but the 10,000 households he owned privately happened to be the tax payment period recently, and he only had to wait another four days to get the tax in his hands. While preparing the boats to cross the river, Gorten urged the troops below to hurry up and collect taxes.

On the third day, Gorten suddenly felt a great uneasiness in his heart. This is the feeling of a soldier, and Gorten has no way of controlling this uneasy feeling. Sure enough, not long after, the herald ran in in panic to report, "Wanhu, the Song army fleet has arrived in Ezhou. Some of the military ships stayed on the river, as if waiting for a water battle with us, and the other ships went straight to Hanyang! ”

Worst! Wanhu was shocked! The Song army's tactics are to close the door and fight dogs, as long as Hanyang can be conquered, Ezhou is lonely and hangs south of the Yangtze River, and there is no way to run. After the panic, there was anger, and Wan Hu shouted angrily: "Order the water army to fight." ”

At this time, on the fleet that swooped down on Hanyang, the battalion commander took the hat and looked at Ezhou in the rain, while humming 'The rain has been falling, the atmosphere is not harmonious, under the same roof, you gradually feel that your heart is changing'......

There are many new musical instruments in Fujian, especially after the emergence of the guitar, and the music has changed dramatically. There are more tunes, and the songs have changed a lot. Many of these songs are the stuff of the Riba people, but they don't sound serious. But at this time, the battalion commander just wanted to sing an indecent song to express the joy in his heart.

The Mongol army, under the command of Boyan, showed an astonishing sense of the overall strategic situation and a strong command ability. Looking back at Jiangnan a few years ago, if Boyan and the Song army had a big war, the 100,000 Mongolian troops in Jiangnan would have to be explained there. The level of weapons training of the Song army was much higher than that of the Mongols, and more importantly, the Mongol army did not have the natural conditions to give full play to its combat effectiveness.

The Mongol garrison in Ezhou did not have the military level of Boyan. When the Song army arrived in Huangzhou, he either sent troops over to fight hard, or immediately slapped his ass and ran away. By the time the Song army arrived to launch an attack on Hanyang, there was no possibility of recovery.

The flotilla crossed Eju and finally arrived in Hanyang at noon. When we set off, it was still raining in the sky. By the time we arrived in Hanyang, the rain had stopped. This is not the rainy season when the rain stops and the sky continues to be dark, and the gray clouds in the sky of Hanyang have turned into white clouds. The sun was shining brightly on the ground and on the river.

In this battle, some cadres who participated in the Battle of Ezhou more than ten years ago were the leaders, and their emotions were more nostalgic. Although it was said to be the Battle of Ezhou, it was Jia Yidao and others in Ezhou, and Taiwei Zhao was actually stationed in Hanyang at that time. As long as Hanyang can be captured, it can hold the river from Ezhou to Hanshui, which is a strategic point in the entire region.

When the defenders of Hanyang saw the Song fleet coming, they immediately sent military ships to meet them. At a cursory glance, the warships on both sides are the same, but if you look closely, the difference between the ships is actually very large. When the Mongolian warships were processed, the edges of the hull were straight. The advantage of this kind of manufacturing is that the process is simple and there are not so many troublesome parts. In contrast, the hulls of the Song army's warships are actually streamlined. Only those who know some fluid dynamics theory or have experience in the industry understand the purpose of doing this. It's not that everyone is looking for nothing to do, this kind of hull can really play the biggest role.

When the two sides are at war, the results are even more visible. The ships of the Song army were like swans, capable of making very beautiful voyages. The Mongol ships were much stiffer, their routes were too stiff and the bumps were too great. Although it was not impossible to fight, many problems were superimposed, and the Mongol army could hit the Mongol ships three times if they hit the Song ships with one shell.

Seeing that a Mongol naval army had been defeated, he was ready to order the military ships to cover the landing of the troop transports. However, he saw that another naval army was sent from Hanyang, and the number was about the same as that of the defeated Mongol naval army.

"Straight sissy thief!" After finishing up, he couldn't help but scold, and the leisure of humming 'rain keeps falling' completely flew out of the clouds.

Behind the battalion commander, the Mongol army also dispatched a naval army. Artillery roared on the river from Ezhou to Hanyang, and fierce battles broke out between the Mongol and Song armies.

The more Mongolian warships fought, it was not that the Mongols had considered so much in advance, but that the Mongols had captured nearly 10,000 Song ships in the war, and there was no room for these warships to be used in the Han River, so they could only be used on the Yangtze River. Although Mongol ships were constantly sunk, the Song army was not unscathed. Moreover, the Song army could not continue to send ships to join the ranks of the battle like the Mongol army. Judging from the situation, it seems that the Song army is getting fewer and fewer as they fight.

After returning to see a little flustered, he saw that the sun was a little westward, so he simply ordered with a heart, "Our army will not go to Hanyang, continue to the west, and get off the boat to the west of Ezhou!" ”

The order was executed. Under the cover of the navy, the convoy left the battlefield and arrived at its destination. The four battalions were well-trained, and even so, it was dark when they completed their defensive formations on the water and land west of Ezhou.

It was a night of great suffering. It was finally until dawn that I began to continue disembarking. At this time, it was not only Song Jun who was suffering, but also Gorten Wanhu in Ezhou City. At this time, there were 20,000 troops in Ezhou City, which was about the same as the strength of Anqing. Of the 20,000 men, 8,000 were sailors. During the day, the two sides fought, and the Mongol navy could be said to have poured out, but it still failed to deal a fatal blow to the Great Song navy.

If he hadn't been so greedy...... Gorten would have boiled with remorse in his heart. The Song army, who had fled from Anqing to Ezhou before, carried a large amount of property, which was packed up by Gorten Wanhu, and the huge wealth fell into the pockets of Wanhu. If only not so greedy......

The Song army didn't care what the enemy thought. Everyone knows that as long as they can exert their strength, the Mongol army is not a problem. The battalion commander was very clear about this. The capture of Anqing is already a great achievement, and if he can conquer Ezhou again this time, he will definitely be able to become the division commander. During the day, the battalion commander sped up to transport people ashore. By noon, the goal had finally been reached.

After the battalion commander asked the troops to trim up, he himself led people to check the offensive route. There are many large and small lakes in the west of Ezhou, and it takes time to find a road that can be passed by a large group of people.

At this time, he saw a Mongolian cavalry in the distance, and immediately ordered a company to be brought out to form a defensive formation. It didn't take long for the Mongol cavalry to see that the Mongolian cavalry had begun to approach. The two sides lined up a hundred paces apart, and a big battle was about to begin.
