Chapter 437

Chapter 437
The Minjiang River is formed by the confluence of two rivers.

One is the Jinma River, which is the source of the Minjiang River and flows directly from Dujiangyan in the northwest; the other is the Fu River, which is a tributary of the Minjiang River. After being diverted by Dujiangyan, it first flows through Chengdu and then flows into the Minjiang River.

The Jinma River and the Fu River converge at the foot of Pengzu Mountain.

This place is called Jiangkou, which is the place where Zhang Xianzhong's Jiangkou sinks silver.

Now Li Xia is stationed on Pengzu Mountain.

He made a deduction and believed that New Lin would never stick to Chengdu, and defending the city was not the Mongolian style of play.

Even if the Song army was three times larger than the Mongolian army, Niu Lin would definitely dare to lead the army to attack, and fight a field battle first when the Song army is not stable.

The Mongolian cavalry always take the initiative on the battlefield, and they can't suffer no matter how they fight in the field.

Therefore, Li Xia considered where to camp every day when he marched.

Sure enough, the Mongolian army's leather rafts soon appeared on the Fujiang River.

~~
It's almost dusk.

Standing on the hillside, Sha Bao looked into the distance and saw firewood piled on the rafts going down the river.

There was a flickering fire, lit the firewood, and rushed downstream.

"Damn, luckily Li Zhizhou ordered the ship to be unloaded."

Sha Bao whispered, convinced Li Xia a lot.

To be honest, he didn't like Li Xia very much at first. He thought that this person didn't drink or brag, and he couldn't get along with martial arts like them.

Yi Shiying is also old-fashioned, but he is old, and he has prestige...

Just thinking about these things, I only heard someone shouting on the top of the mountain: "The Mongolian army is coming!"

Sha Bao narrowed his eyes, only to see dust billowing in the distance, and then, a Mongolian army appeared on the other side of the Fu River.

"Hahaha."

Shabao laughed out loud.

"Swim over here! Rabbits, grandpa is waiting for you on the other side!"

~~
Niu Lin looked up and saw that the Song army's camp was in order on Mount Pengzu under the setting sun.

He had thought that this raid would be a surprise attack on the marching Song army, but he did not expect to encounter such a heavily guarded formation.

"Is that the word 'Li'?"

Niu Lin stepped forward and asked the interpreter, pointing at the big flag on the hill with his whip.

"Yes."

A cold light appeared in Niu Lin's eyes, and he pulled his horse back to the army.

On the battlefields of Syria and Lu before, the Song army had always hung the banner of the pacifier of Tongchuanfu Road.

On the contrary, it is now replaced by Xiaoqi, which makes him even more afraid.

Niu Lin carefully observed Li Xia's arrangement and knew that it would be extremely difficult to defeat him easily.

Obviously, Li Xia intends to fight steadily and slowly in this battle.

Generally speaking, there is no need for too many intrigues on the battlefield.Often only the underdog needs to surprise and win.

In every confrontation before, Li Xia was at a disadvantage, and he had to find ways to reverse the situation.

Now, it's Newell's turn to face adversity.

"We haven't lost yet, we are cavalry, and we are not afraid of how many people he will come."

It was night, Niu Lin pointed to the map, and said to the lieutenant general's car, "It's still a hundred miles away from Chengdu. To reach Chengdu, the Song army must cross the Fujiang River and march on flat ground. We can defeat them at any time."

Asked in the car, "But what about them camping and marching at the same time?"

"The Khan's reinforcements can also arrive in time." Niu Lin said: "Remember, the advantage is still with us. Even if Chengdu is lost, it doesn't matter. As long as we cut off the Song Army's food road, we will drag them to death sooner or later. Cattle, sheep and horses were all driven out of the city and carried with the army."

Che Li understood the advantage New Lin mentioned.

Less baggage troubles, faster marching speed, and stronger field capabilities.These are enough to make the Mongolian army invincible.

In the simplest terms, even if you retreat and give up Chengdu to Song Jun, what will Song Jun do to maintain it?The supply line from Syria to Chengdu is so long.

"But... the Khan will blame us, right?"

Newell was silent.

This was the greatest pressure he faced against Li Xia.

Da Khan is invincible, he is the only one who loses this way, if he loses Chengdu again...

Frowning and thinking for a long time, Niu Lin finally shouted: "Do you think Li Xia has no pressure? The Khan is about to capture Shu soon. At this time, Li Xia will not lead the army to rescue Chongqing, but to attack Chengdu. As long as he makes progress If it doesn’t go well, you will be punished immediately!”

New Lin kicked the table a little maniacally, and grinned loudly.

"In the car, you reminded me. Li Xia can't afford to delay and lose more than I do. How does Emperor Zhao Song, who is like a lamb, treat his soldiers?"

He took a few steps, and said again: "Look, at the end of the fight, the one who throws away his helmet and armor and runs away will be Li Xia."

~~
Li Xia pointed to the plain below the mountain in the dark.

"Look, all officers and men, this is the field of Chengdu, the fertile land of the Land of Abundance."

Li Xia arranged the defense and immediately summoned the generals under his command.

He wanted to mobilize before the battle, but he didn't rush to analyze the pros and cons of the enemy and himself, but talked about these irrelevant things.

"Last year, I followed Pu Shuai to regain Chengdu. At that time, we came with the feeling of returning to our hometown, but Chengdu no longer has the original appearance of our hometown. There are many bones and no people from our hometown. But this time is different. We are here to rebuild homeland."

Li Xia is not good at motivating morale with long speeches.

He couldn't do what Pu Zezhi did, "We were born in Sichuan and Shu", which could inspire the three armies.

He could only use the most plain language to describe his plan to the generals.

"Pu Shuai and Zhu's appeasement made a big plan. He ordered us to recover Chengdu and block Jianmen Pass. In this way, Meng Ge was blocked between the mountains and rivers of our Shu land.

It's almost summer, and the Mongols can't bear the fire in the south.And we will sneak attack the Mongolian army from the rear, close the door and beat the dogs.This time, Pu Shuai has absolute confidence to kill the Mongolian Khan..."

At this point, the generals were in an uproar.

"Really?!"

"This……"

Li Xia turned his back to them, straightened his body, and said: "We have already defeated Niu Lin's tens of thousands of troops once. Before that, have you ever thought about it? I am not afraid to tell you that the imperial court has sent Lu Wende to reinforce Sichuan and Shu for the purpose of This plan."

Pu Wei was completely stunned when he heard this.

He looked at Li Xia in disbelief, never expecting that Li Xia would make up such a big lie.

Liu Jinsuo glanced at the generals of Luzhou Army and Jiading Army, and laughed.

"Okay! Cooperate with Pu Shuai and destroy the Mongol Lord!"

Li Xia said, "This is confidential military information, don't let it out. But you can rest assured to assure the soldiers. After we regain Chengdu this time, we will never lose it again.

We are going to share the fertile land of this land of abundance, and ask the tenants to plow the land for you.The more enemies you kill, the bigger the fields, and when your soldiers retire, you will be able to sit here in a good farmland and a beautiful house..."

Although Li Xia is not good at depicting these, these soldiers can add various details to this prospect.

~~
"Are you really going to drive Meng Da out of Shu?!"

Candles were not lit in the barracks, Wang Datou sat there cross-legged, looked at the captains under his command, stared, and said: "Is that still fake?!"

After a while, he smiled, patted his knees and said: "This is Chengdu Mansion. At that time, I will divide the house in Chengdu City, and there will be a hundred acres of fertile land outside the city. When my little boy grows up, he will stop fighting. Here He said that his wife, relying on the crops in the field, would support him in his studies and take the exam for a Jinshi master..."

"Hey, villains don't have such big ambitions. It costs a lot of money to raise a Jinshi son, and you won't be able to earn it in a few lifetimes. If you have a field, you can grow it yourself. Don't fight wars, just eat enough. .”

"No, Dutou. If the fields in Chengdu are really divided, Meng Da won't fight anymore?"

"Zhizhou also said that it would be safe to take down Hanzhong." Wang Datou said: "Zhizhou is going to be the commander of Shu. You know Yu Du is handsome, right? Hanzhong will be taken back then."

"If the villain has a field, can he lead it?"

"Stupid, are you, have you seen the Fujiang River under the mountain? That's the water for irrigating the fields. Do you understand Dujiangyan?"

"don't know."

"Fool, let me tell you, the fields in Chengdu are the best, and the water in Dujiangyan... Tsk, you don't have to worry about it anyway."

"There is no war, and there will be a year's harvest. I will add another big jacket to my mother. I told her that I can't bear to wear it. The tenants planted it for us, hahaha."

"Promise." Wang Datou cursed, and said: "Go and tell the soldiers to fight hard...Damn it, your feet really stink."

"I didn't take off my shoes. If I took them off, I would faint."

"roll roll roll."

Wang Datou cursed, but felt his heart was burning.

~~
The next day, the Mongolian army retreated for [-] miles, and only sent sentry horses to watch the movement of the Song army, hoping to fight the Song army in the field.

Contrary to Niu Lin's expectations, Li Xia did not march in a hurry. Instead, he overhauled the trench on the other side of the Fujiang River and set up a refusal horse before slowly advancing.

After a whole day, we only traveled five miles.

Niu Lin was furious, and secretly scolded Li Xia for marching so slowly that it would take another [-] days to reach Chengdu.

"I don't believe you can really delay..."

~~
At the same time, Zhu Yusun returned to Xuzhou City again.

He went down the Yangtze River and almost reached the territory of Chongqing Prefecture before turning back to Shenarm City, but hurried back to Xuzhou, obviously because of an urgent matter.

"Tell me honestly, where did the soldiers and horses go?"

There were thin beads of sweat on Jiang Chun's forehead, and he said, "Pacifier, I really don't know. Ever since Pu Shuai sent someone to come, Fei Yu and the people who came led the troops and left."

"You mean, it was Pu Shuai who transferred the soldiers and horses?" Zhu Yusun asked with a straight face.

"This... I don't know."

Zhu Yusun's face became more and more serious.

There was something in his mind that he hesitated to ask.

After thinking for a long time, he still asked: "When I was injured, who took my official seal and tiger charm?"

Jiang Chun was astonished and froze just right.

"Pacifier Zhu, your official seal...is lost?"

Jiang Chun anxiously took two steps, then murmured: "Then everything before that, defeating Niu Lin and defending Xu Lu, were not the orders of the pacifier?"

Zhu Hu and Sun Muran for a moment, then said with a flick of his sleeves, "No."

After thinking about it, he added a sentence.

"The official seal is not lost."

Jiang Chun breathed a sigh of relief, stroked his chest and said, "That's good, that's good."

Neither of them was stupid, so there was a long silence.

After a long time, it was Zhu Yusun who first compromised, beckoned, and ordered Jiang Chun to come over.

"Send someone to tell Li Feiyu, no matter what happened before, I won't blame it for what happened... But, stop here, bring back the soldiers and horses, and return the items. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Jiang Chun's body trembled, but he didn't move.

Zhu Yusun suppressed his anger, and said again: "immediately. Don't wait for me to report to the imperial court. I will take your family and life. It's too late to regret."
