Early the next morning.

As the most powerful person in the world at this moment, Wokotai stomps his feet, and he can't wait for the earth to tremble.

After all, in this timeline, the Mongols are too demonic, destroying Xia, destroying Jin, brushing copies in Europe twice, destroying countless countries, and swallowing thousands of miles.

The Mongols at this moment, with a horse, a bow, and a scimitar, there is nothing they can't do.

In this era of cold weapons, all the pinnacles were vividly displayed in the Mongols.

Hundreds of years later, when guns were in vogue, the Mongols became hospitable and able to sing and dance, that's another story.

……

There is a saying in the military that calls people to 10,000 boundless, and 100,000 people to the sky.

As far as the current posture of Wokotai is concerned, it is a state of penetrating the sky, with 50,000 Mongolian army iron cavalry, plus 100,000 relocated troops, so that the vanguard soldiers and horses have been out of the city for twenty or thirty miles, and the follow-up troops have not had time to go out of the city.

"Great Khan, the soldiers of this army are prosperous, and the Song Dynasty will be captured", Yelu Chucai, as the prime minister of the province, has not seen this kind of posture for many years.

After all, the last time the Song Dynasty was attacked, the mobilization of the Mongolian army was far from being so great.

Wokotai is also full of ambition: "Prime Minister, the battle to destroy the Song Dynasty, I am afraid that this is the last time Ben Khan will lead his troops to the expedition in his life, and there is no room for mistakes, and you must also give a lot of advice."

Yelu Chucai said: "That is nature, and it is my honor to die for the great Mongolia."

Wokotai nodded with satisfaction: "Father Khan once said that you are the smartest person in the world, and I also think so, you can tell me the general strategy of this battle."

Yelu Chucai said: "The strategy of destroying the Song Dynasty, when the first Khan had not yet died, I had a suggestion."

"Our Great Mongolia has almost no sailors, so the Song people's Yangtze River defense line is unbreakable."

"So those places where the water is turbulent and known as natural hazards, we don't touch any of them."

"We can only go from places where the upstream flow speed is relatively slow, which is why we want to enter Hubei from Henan."

"As long as we can go down to Hubei, we can control many rivers in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and the army will be free to advance and retreat at that time."

Wo Kotai took a deep breath: "Prime Minister, I remember that when my father Khan was still alive, you already had a plan to destroy Jin and Song."

"Back then, it seemed to be your idea to borrow from the Song people and attack the Jin Kingdom from behind, right?"

Yelu Chucai was a little embarrassed: "I said casually at the time, the main thing is that the first Khan is wise."

Wokotai said: "Father Khan is indeed wise, and you continue to talk about the Song Dynasty."

Yelu Chucai could only continue: "I just talked about going to Hubei, and after taking Hubei, the best route for the army is not to go straight to Lin'an."

"Xiaguan believes that after taking Hubei, we should first enter Sichuan, and then collect grain and grass on the spot to move the army after conquering Sichuan, and then in order to prevent the Song Dynasty from uniting with Dali, we can first destroy Dali, and then dig out the Song Dynasty's back road from Guangxi."

"As long as our army can successfully appear in the rear of the Song court, the Song court will definitely be in chaos, and the many fortified cities they have built over the years on the frontal defense line will just become a joke."

Ogedai did not speak, because he had known for a long time that Yelu Chucai would definitely say this, and he had heard of this military strategy in his mouth at the moment when his father Khan Temujin was still alive.

It stands to reason that this military strategy must be the most secure, and the success rate is no less than ninety.

Because even if the Mongolian army took Sichuan, the people of the Song court would never have thought that the next step of the Mongolian army was to enter Yunnan to destroy Dali, and then enter Guangxi to dig out the back road of the Song court, and then the Song court would inevitably have a national chaos.

But this military strategy did not conform to the mind of Wokotai at this moment, for two reasons, first, he subconsciously believed that the fortified cities built by the Song people were nothing more than paper tigers, and they must be broken with a stab under the scimitars of their own soldiers.

As for the second point, it is the physical problem of him, the Mongolian Great Khan, entering Sichuan, destroying Dali, and then digging out the back road of the Song Dynasty, it is absolutely safe to do this, but to complete these things, it will be two or three years if it is fast, and three or four years if it is slow, but Wokotai is not sure about his body now, and whether he can hold it for three or four years.

……

In fact, on the real historical line, the military strategy of the Mongolian army to destroy the Song Dynasty is exactly the same as what Yelu Chucai said.

Don't look at the weakness of the Song court, but the Mongols destroyed the Song Dynasty, and fought for decades, even the fourth Great Khan, who was only Jin Mengke, died under the strong city of the Song people, and in the end, it was the fifth Great Khan, that is, Meng Ge's younger brother Kublai Khan, who re-came up with Yelu Chucai's military strategy back then, and perfectly completed the plan to destroy the Song Dynasty.

It's just that then again, after all, the current Wokotai is due to his own body, so he doesn't want to waste too much time, he wants to fight to Lin'an City as soon as possible, which makes it difficult to implement Yelu Chucai's perfect military strategy.

At the very least, Ogedai will not consider this military strategy for the time being.

"The prime minister's idea is good, but, how to do it, let's wait for the time being, and wait until we take Xiangyang."

"After taking Xiangyang, if we can make progress from the frontal battlefield, then we will drive straight into Lin'an City and fight directly under Lin'an City, if the progress is not smooth, it is not too late to consider your military strategy."

Seeing that Wokotai said this, Yelu Chucai couldn't say anything more, so he could only say that the Great Khan would win this battle, and no matter how he fought, he would win the ......words.

……

It is said that Bianliang is about 600 miles away from Nanyang, and some of the pioneers of Wokotai rode lightly in less than four days before they came to Nanyang City.

This group of Mongols was accustomed to arrogance, and only three or four hundred people shouted under the city of Nanyang at dusk on this day.

It's just that Yang sent people to wait in Bianliang too early, and when he saw the Ogedai army out of the city, he quickly went straight to Nanyang day and night, so that when this small group of light cavalry pioneers of the Mongolian army arrived here, Nanyang had already become a military manager.

Now in Nanyang, the four gates are closed, and the flags are waving on the city wall, and it has long looked like it is going to war.

"Listen to the bastards in the city, open the gates quickly, my great khan has begun to cut down the Song, and wherever he passes, those who surrender will be lenient, and those who resist will die."

At the head of Nanyang City, Yang Guo looked at the sunset, afraid that it would not be long before the sun would set.

"Second sister, pass the order, let the four ghosts of the Yellow River get ready, open the city gate, and let these hundreds of people in."

"Afterwards, the city gate was directly piled to death with rammed earth."

Wan Yanping had long wanted to kill a few Mongolians to vent her anger, and after hearing this, she hurriedly went to order the four ghosts of the Yellow River.
