Chapter 173: Song is dead, the world is not dead!
The third year of Xiangxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, the sixth day of February in the seventeenth year of the Yuan Dynasty.
Pushing forward one year in history is the day of the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty in the Battle of Yashan.
More than 100,000 soldiers and civilians went to the country together, and the tragedy of their demise will not be forgotten in the history books for thousands of years.
In this world, there is the appearance of Li Yunze. After the Battle of Yashan was forcibly postponed for a year, it was staged again.
This time, the identities of the two sides were reversed.
Zhang Hongfan, who was supposed to destroy the Song Dynasty, was trapped on the sea.
And Li Yunze, who was filled with endless anger, also chose this day to launch a devastating blow to him.
The same large pipes and various parts ordered by Laiyang Metal were also assembled and debugged in the Dream of Red Mansions World.
Hundreds of artillery pieces were transported up Yashan and the opposite Tangbian Mountain, and condescendingly launched a fierce bombardment of the Mongolian ships on the sea.
Li Yunze's artillery and guns are very simple, and the operation is even more convenient.
It is to take care of the sergeants in this year, after all, their education level is too low, and it is difficult to use it if it is a little more complicated.
If he really got some advanced weapons or something, who could use them well except him?
Hundreds of artillery guns continued to roar, and the large projectiles flew over with a whistling roar, and when they landed on the ship, they would be directly penetrated.
After all, they are all wooden ships, not ironclad ships, so naturally they can't stop the bombardment of artillery fire.
Originally, in terms of the accuracy of these guns, most of the shelling should have been in the water.
But who told the Mongolian army to follow the example of the Song Dynasty and gather the ships together to form a chain of ships.
In addition, baffles, wooden poles, fishing nets, etc., were dropped on the perimeter to prevent arsonists.
Suddenly encountering a large-scale artillery bombardment, this is a large pile of hundreds of ships gathered together and difficult to move the target, which can be called the kind that can be hit with closed eyes.
That is, most of the artillery fire was covering the intruder's own fleet at this time to block the entrance to the sea, otherwise at least half of the ships would be sunk when the Mongolian fleet was disbanded.
Dozens of boats that had been collected with great difficulty dragged several long iron chains from both sides of Yashan Mountain and Tangbei Mountain, dragging the iron chains under the cover of artillery fire and desperately rushing to the opposite bank.
The Mongolian ships responsible for blocking the entrance to the sea naturally saw the iron chain and desperately blocked it.
If this is really locked here, the tens of thousands of troops will be completely destroyed, and there will be nowhere to run.
There were a large number of firecrackers on the invading ship, and under the bombardment of rows of firearms, the Mongolian army suffered heavy casualties on the ship.
However, the Mongolian troops here are all selected elites, and they know that the sea mouth is the only way to survive for the main force that is hurriedly disbanding the serial ships at this time.
There was even a violent collision of ships on both sides.
As for gang hopping, it's even more common.
Many of the ships that were close together were covered with corpses, and blood fell from the hull into the water like a spring.
The fierce battle here in Haikou is very fierce, and the Mongolian army guarding here can be regarded as doing their best.
They even sank a ship with chains, and snatched a ship with chains by fighting to the death.
But that's it.
There were as many as six boats dragging chains, and the remaining four ships successfully reached the opposite shore and firmly fastened the chains, and hundreds of Mongolian ships became turtles in the urn.
On the top of the cliff mountain, Li Yunze, who was sitting on the horse, saw that the iron chain blocking the sea mouth had been formed, and immediately turned his head and asked, "When will the tide rise?" β
"Unitary time."
"That's enough." Li Yunze stood up from the maza, raised the saber in his hand and pointed at the Mongolian fleet that had finally unlocked the chain locks, "Sink them for me!" β
The fierce shelling on Yashan Mountain and Tangbei Mountain lasted from three o'clock in the afternoon until nearly dusk.
The rain of bullets that continued to fall smashed one Mengyuan ship after another.
When the access to the sea was blocked, the Mongolian army was like headless flies, scurrying everywhere.
After several ships crashed into the chain and failed to break out, the desperate Mongolian army began to rush to the shore.
And they were greeted by hundreds of thousands of sergeants who were waiting for them in addition to the bombardment of artillery fire.
Although the experience and training of these sergeants are very insufficient, the number is there, and the equipment and morale are also very high, and there is no problem in blocking the breakthrough road of the Mongolian army.
As night gradually fell, at this time, on the sea surface of the encirclement, there were only less than 100 Mongolian ships still circling.
Zhang Hongfan, who was sunk by boat, was picked up and put on a nearby ship with difficulty by the guards.
Before he could catch his breath on the deck, he saw Zhang Hongyi floating with the waves on the sea not far away by the light of the burning ship.
For a moment, Zhang Hongfan was stunned.
I remember when I was young, I played with my brothers and sisters at home.
At this time, he also remembered his father Zhang Rou.
The father who carried the Zhang family on his shoulders and was able to protect the Zhang family from intrusion and live happily when the sky was falling apart.
My father saved the Zhang family, but he had no eyes and was going to bury the Zhang family.
"Marshal all, Marshal all!"
Mo Rigen, the new supervisor of the cowardly Xue Army, shook the depressed Zhang Hongfan vigorously.
Seeing that Zhang Hongfan's eyes finally gradually came back to his senses, he said eagerly, "Let's concentrate our manpower in one direction and escape at night!" β
This was a previously negotiated strategy, after all, there would only be a slight chance of breaking through at night. M.biQuge.biZ
But at this time, Zhang Hongfan stretched out his hand and pointed to the artillery on the cliffs on both sides, "Look at those earth-shattering things." β
Then he stretched out his hand and pointed to the countless torches on the shore that seemed to light up the night sky, "Look at those terrible assault guns, look at those intruders who can't see their heads at a glance!" β
His words trembled, but with a hint of determination, "I can't get out, I'm stuck in death, I can't get out." β
Mo Zhigen changed color, and immediately became furious, "Batu! Don't you want to come down? β
"I'm not called Batu!" Zhang Hongfan sneered and said, "My surname is Zhang, my name is Zhang Hongfan!" β
Mo Rigen was furious and wanted to merge with him, but Zhang Hongfan's Zhang family guards were already surrounding him.
"The descent is to be lowered, but it is not for me to descend."
Zhang Hongfan stretched out his hand and pointed to the sea full of floating corpses, "We have done our best, we are worthy of the emperor." β
Looking at the dense and almost covered corpses on the sea, even if Mo Rigen was from the cowardly Xue Army, he couldn't help but don't speak at this time.
If this battle can be fought to this extent, it is indeed worthy of the emperor.
"I can't surrender, that King Chuang has always made a mistake in killing people like me and others."
Zhang Hongfan's gaze stared at his younger brother floating on the sea for a long time, "You can't descend, and King Chuang won't let go of the Mongolian people and the Semu people, you and I have created countless killings, and when you meet such a fairy among the gods, there is no way to live." β
Mo Rigen fell silent, he already knew what Zhang Hongfan wanted to do.
"I'm Zhang Hongfan, I'm Zhang's family. Worthy of the Great Emperor. Zhang Hongfan roared angrily: "That's right!" β
Zhang Rou accompanied Kublai Khan on his expedition to Hala and Lin, and made great contributions to his seizure of the Khan throne after MΓΆngke's death.
He Zhang Hongfan fought in the south and the north and destroyed the Song court, of course, he is also worthy of it.
At this time, it is always time to think about the sergeants who are still alive, and take them with you even if they are not dead.
"Order a ship to come down."
Zhang Hongfan took a deep breath and instructed the generals of the Zhang family around him, "You all come down, bring a letter to the family, don't be the enemy of King Chuang, you can't beat it." β
After saying that, he glanced at Mo Rigen with a strange expression, then turned around and jumped directly from the deck into the sea.
'Gollum~~~'
There was a wave of churning, and soon it disappeared into the water.
Many generals of the Zhang family followed one after another with expressionless faces, and jumped into the sea one after another.
The loyalty of their generals is indeed very high.
In the end, there was only one homemaker left on deck.
Feeling Mo Rigen's gaze, the family calmed down and said, "I want to bring back the words of Marshal Du." β
Mo Rigen nodded subconsciously, and then turned to look at the guards behind him.
After a few moments, he rushed off the boat without saying a word.
His guards looked at each other, and most of them chose to jump into the sea to follow.
After all, the king was extremely ruthless, and he almost never forgave the Semu and the Mengren.
Rather than being kite-flying like King Zong, it's better to break it off by yourself.
The few who didn't jump were purely a fluke.
Without him, beggar.
After dawn, the sea was full of floating corpses of the Mongolian army, and the number was simply covered with the sea.
The final surrender was only a few thousand, and most of them would be sent on their way after cross-examination.
"That's what Zhang Hongfan said?"
Li Yunze saw the last general of the Zhang family and asked Zhang Hongfan in detail about his words before he threw himself into the sea.
"Yes."
The general of the family saluted respectfully, "I begged Wang Yun to send the message back to the Zhang family, and then he would die when he came to the army." β
Li Yunze glanced at him, didn't say anything but waved his hand.
When the family was about to leave, Li Yunze looked at Zhang Hongfan, who was being dragged to the shore, and took a sip, "It's cheap, you dog." β
He had already prepared mercury to deal with these traitors, but he didn't expect this guy to be quite decisive.
"King Chuang." He Yuanli and others stepped forward to congratulate: "Our army has won a great victory." β
Before Li Yunze, he also won a series of victories, and the Mongolian army that was defeated was more than 100,000 people.
But it was a rout, and many Mongolian troops escaped again and again.
This Battle of Yashan is different, this is a battle of annihilation in the true sense, and the main force of nearly 50,000 Mongolian troops was annihilated at one time.
Especially Zhang Jiajun, an important lackey of Mengyuan, was almost wiped out under this battle.
There is no doubt that the Zhang family is bound to withdraw from the stage of history.
Li Yunze didn't pay too much attention to this, there were still many eagle dogs and lackeys like the Zhang family, and in his opinion, this was just an ordinary victory.
He stood on the shore and silently looked at the bay in front of him.
The real significance of winning this battle is that it completely rewrites the ending of the Battle of Yashan!
Da Ji is indeed dead, but the world is not dead!
