Although the Mongol army's attack on Jiading was unsuccessful, it could not be called a failure. In fact, the three siege Mongolian armies did not lose many men and horses, and although Yang Dayuan's department, which suffered the largest losses, suffered many siege technicians, it did not reach the point of breaking bones and bones. As for the Yelumai Pillar Department and Wang Dechen's Mongol and Han Army, which were mainly cavalry, the losses were very small. The Mongolian army suffered the most losses from the navy, and Liu Heima's newly trained navy suffered many casualties in this battle, and the ships were even more than half damaged. Of course, the Jiading Navy was also greatly injured, but fortunately, the ship was seriously damaged, and many sailor soldiers were familiar with the water conditions when the ship sank, and successfully escaped back to Jiading City. Compared with the losses of the navy, the losses of the Jiading infantry army were more serious. In fact, in the siege battle, the Jiading infantry army did not suffer any losses, only dozens of people were killed and wounded by bed crossbows and trebuchets, and the biggest losses were the soldiers who could not escape when the division of Yang Dayuan's division and Meizhou City fell.

According to the unspoken rule of the Song army that "sesame seeds are blown into watermelons and watermelons are blown into houses", Yu Xing greatly exaggerated this military exploits, calling it "Jiading Great Victory" in the official document reported to the imperial court, saying that he repelled the attack of tens of thousands of Mongol troops. Of course, this immortal achievement is due to his wise and powerful command, and also thanks to the brave soldiers of the three armies, and the hearts of the people under his rule are enthusiastically supported by the Great Song Dynasty. The official document reporting the war situation was vividly written into a letter of commendation. Reading this eloquent official document, Yu Xinghe and his generals also fell into self-hypnosis and self-touching, it turned out that they were so great! "I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain", and I will no longer be arrogant in the future. They all forgot that they were defeated by the Mongolian army, and they forgot that the city of Meizhou was still in the hands of the Mongols.

In fact, the Mongolian army only withdrew from the boundary of Jiadingfu, and the two sides did not return to the pre-war line. On the east bank of the Min River, the Mongol army still occupied the counties of Longzhou. On the west bank of the Minjiang River, out of the need to shrink the defense, the Mongols plundered Qingshen County and Danling County, and abandoned the two counties to defend Meizhou. The main forces remaining in the above areas were the surrendered new annex troops, and in order to make up for the lack of troops, the Mongol army recruited many bandits and scoundrels to help defend the city. Wang Dechen and Yang Dayuan's troops retreated eastward, and they would report to the Diaoyu City Meng Ge Khan, while the Yelumai Pillar cavalry returned to the area of Muma Mountain in Shuangliu County, Chengdu Prefecture.

Although the main forces of the Mongolian army withdrew one after another, Yu Xing still did not dare to wave his troops to regain the lost territory. At present, the Jiading army is already seriously injured, and the military reserves are also very depleted, so it needs to rest and recuperate and accumulate strength to fight again. Moreover, the Yelumai Pillar Department was only one or two hundred miles away from Meizhou and Longzhou, and with the mobility of the cavalry's rapid march, it only took one or two days to come to support.

The road from Jiading to Lin'an was long, and it was necessary to bypass Chongqing Prefecture, where the Mongol army was gathered, so the letter of retribution made full preparations. In the past, Yu Xing's military exploits were only reported to the place where Chongqing Mansion was selected, and then reported to Lin'an by Chongqing Prefecture downstream. Now that Yu Xing has become the deputy envoy of Sichuan, he took advantage of the siege of Chongqing Mansion to send an official letter to Lin'an. It is said that Meng Ge Khan personally conquered Sichuan, and the Song army was defeated or surrendered one after another, and I heard that the Song army also suffered defeats in the Lianghuai and Jinghu battlefields, and the voices of the court surrendering and seeking peace were endless. Yu Xing estimated that the achievements of Jiading Mansion would be reported, and the important ministers of the DPRK and China would definitely be able to see a glimmer of light in a gloomy and miserable fog, and they would be rewarded under great joy.

Just as the messenger who reported his exploits was about to depart, someone from Yazhou came. This Cao Zhizhou is an old oilman in officialdom, and he knows that as soon as the Mongolian army retreats, Yu Xing will inevitably boast to the imperial court about the great victory in Jiading. He sent people to get a piece of the pie this time, and the reason was sufficient: "The Yazhou army overcame the hardships and dangers and went out of Hongya, so that the Mongolian army that was vainly trying to advance westward could not advance an inch, and lost its covetousness; Our army arrayed the Mongolian army behind it, let it be thorned in the back, and could not care about each other, so that it had to withdraw from Jiading ......", this was said so shamelessly that even Yu Dazhong couldn't stand it. It's just that this Cao Zhizhou is well versed in the unspoken rules of officialdom, and the people he sent also carried a large amount of property - plundered from the people in Hongya City. Seeing Cao Zhizhou so upright, although Yu Xing was reluctant in his heart, he also added the names of a number of Yazhou officials to the merit book.

Playing with a jade Buddha sent by Cao Zhizhou, Yu Xing's mind suddenly flashed: Why don't you report Ouyang Xuan's kid together, not only sell his personal favor, but also make another fortune? He also thought that Yazhou did not contribute, but it was listed in the merit book, and the Thunderbolt army sent troops to ambush a small group of Mongolian troops in Meizhou, which disturbed the Mongolian army and had to send heavy troops to protect the grain road, and sent a lot of grenades. Although these contributions are not enough in Yu Xing's eyes, they are much stronger than Yazhou, which has not even built a little credit.

Yu Xing is not stupid, he also learned through the inside that Cao Zhizhou and the Mongols secretly communicated with each other, but he had neither evidence nor strength to win Yazhou in one fell swoop. Besides, this Cao Zhizhou also has the protection of high-ranking officials in the court, and although he is his boss, he is helpless. If he suppresses it too hard, he will push Cao Zhizhou, a wallhead, to the Mongols. Similarly, if Ouyang Xuan's merits were not reported, would it have pushed the Thunderbolt army to the Mongols? Thinking of this, he immediately sent a messenger to Chongqing Mansion.

After listening to the messenger's statement, Ouyang Xuan certainly knew what Yu Xing, the old fox, was thinking. Worried about his surrender to the Mongol army? Ouyang Xuan's answer was absolutely impossible. As for the court reward? Ouyang Xuan didn't care, he was really disappointed in this corrupt regime, and he didn't have any official positions at all. It's just that he repeatedly reminded himself in his heart that those who have achieved great things since ancient times must not be rash, and cannot put personal likes and dislikes and feelings above the cause of resisting Mongolia. Even if what you do violates your values and you will be scolded by others, as long as it is conducive to the cause of resisting Mongolia, you must persist in doing it. In his words, it is, "If I don't go to hell, who will?" ”

When the messenger returned to Jiading Mansion, he brought back many jade playthings. These things were all seized from the corpses of the Mongolian army by the special forces of the Perak Army, and the Mongolian army plundered the people of Meizhou. The original owners of these items had already become ghosts under the sabers and arrows of the Mongols, and they were confiscated by the Thunderbolt army. "Cultural relics of prosperous times, gold of troubled times", for troubled times, the most precious things are food, iron, cloth and other necessities of life. These things are often priceless and unmarketable, and those who need them are either rich or expensive. The Thunderbolt Army caravan was doing business, and under normal circumstances, it didn't need these things, so Ouyang Xuan simply gave them to Yu Xing.

Ouyang Xuan is not rare jade playthings, this does not mean that they are not valuable, in fact, these things are worth a lot. Therefore, Li Shuang sent several elite guards to return to Jiading with the messenger, ostensibly because the distance was far away and unsafe, but in fact he was afraid that the messenger would run away. Of course, the Thunderbolt Army also gave the envoy and the accompanying guards a lot of money, but it was really not worth mentioning compared to the things given to Yu Xing.

There is a proverb in western Sichuan called "The fire is so bad that the pig's head is rotten, and the money is done on official business". After taking the money of the Thunderbolt Army, it was natural to list Ouyang Xuan's name in the merit book. In the official document presented to Lin'an, Yu Xing's credit is of course the greatest, followed by Yu Dazhong - abandoning Meizhou and fleeing naturally did not mention anything, and Ouyang Xuan ranked third, ahead of Cao Zhizhou. It is said that Yu Xing is also a principled person, and the reason why Ouyang Xuan is ranked before Cao Zhizhou is not because Yu Xing thinks that Perak's merits are greater than those of the Yazhou army, but because the property sent by the Perak army is much more valuable than that of Yazhou.

It was precisely because Yu Xing only had money in his eyes that he did not list Luzhou Jun and Liu Cheng in the credit book. When Yu Xing asked for help, Zhu Yusun, the governor of Luzhou, sent Liu Zhen to lead the troops. It's just that when the Luzhou army arrived, the Mongols had already retreated, and Yu Xing sent someone to send Liu Zhen back to Luzhou Shenjian City.
