The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 247 Boyan's Worry
Xinyi.

Zhao Dongting has received Su Quandang's pigeon news.

Qin Han, Dong Heli, Zhao and Luo gathered in Zhao Dongting's room. At this time, Dong Heli and Zhao and Luo were all beaming with joy.

Although the 2 yuan army is nothing compared to the entire Yuan army, this is the first battle, and the Song army undoubtedly showed momentum.

Kong Yuan, the vanguard general of the Yuan army, died, and almost all the [-] vanguard troops were wiped out, and their spirit was severely frustrated.

It's just that Zhao Dongting saw in the letter that after Su Quandang erected a tombstone for Kong Yuan, he fired ten cannons for him, and he still couldn't help laughing and scolding, "This Su Quandang is not saving shells too much."

It is not bad that the Song Dynasty now had more than 2 grenadier shells, but it seems that there are too many, but in fact it cannot withstand such consumption.

Su Quandang spent nearly a thousand rounds of shells in this battle.And the entire artillery shells distributed to the Tiangang Army were only two thousand.

Several people read and re-read the letter, Dong Heli said: "General Su won a complete victory in this battle, Boyan should be so angry that he vomited blood."

Qin Han didn't have much joy on his face, and said in a deep voice, "Qi will definitely be angry, but if he swoops down to kill Cen Xi, how should we resist?"

Kong Yuan died, but Boyan still had an army of 13 in Duanxi.

If he couldn't get enough anger and directly sent troops to attack Cen Xi, Su Quandang might really be unable to resist.I'm afraid it won't work even if Zhang Hongwei is added.

The joy on the faces of Zhao Yuluo and Dong Heli gradually disappeared, and became serious again.

It turned out that Boyan sent Kong Yuan to lead [-] troops outside Cenxi County to contain Su Quandang, and then wait for Ye Su'er's army to arrive before launching an attack on Wuzhou or other cities.If their army gathers together, they can completely attack the city and pull out the stronghold quickly by relying on the advantage of numbers.But now, with Kong Yuan's entire army wiped out, it's hard to say whether Boyan will continue to send soldiers to contain Cenxi, or the army will directly attack Cenxi.

The Yuan army is powerful, which allows them to take the absolute initiative and have many choices.

Zhao Dongting said slowly: "This possibility is not ruled out."

As he said that, he looked at Qin Han and said, "If we also rush to Cenxi, what kind of consequences might we face?"

Qin Han frowned slightly and said: "If the three armies of Tiangang, Tianji, and Tianxian are stationed in Cenxi, Wuzhou will be safe for a short time, but the three armies of Tiangang may not be able to come out of Cenxi alive. If we rush over, we may be in a dead end .”

"Yesu'er should still need some time to rush to the battlefield, right?" Zhao Dongting said.

Qin Han was slightly surprised, "What does the emperor mean?"

Zhao Dongting said: "The Yuan army has a large number of soldiers and horses. Our army is passively defending, and we will never be able to get rid of the passive situation. After all, any city that is surrounded may be killed."

"emperor……"

Dong Heli hesitated and said: "If we defend Wuzhou City, Wuzhou City has towering walls and surrounded by high mountains, it is much easier to defend than Cenxi."

Zhao Dongting shook his head slightly.

Qin Han said: "It seems good to join forces in Wuzhou, but what if the Yuan army cuts off our army's food and grass supply line?"

Dong Heli froze.

Yes, Zhao Dongting is unwilling to abandon the defensive circle formed by Cenxi, Gaozhou and other cities, isn't it for the smooth and unimpeded supply of logistics?
If all the soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty were stationed in Wuzhou, even if the Yuan army had more than 40 troops, it would definitely be difficult to capture.However, the Yuan army can completely cut off all the supply lines of the Song army and turn Wuzhou into an isolated city. At that time, the Song army in Wuzhou city can only wait to die.Moreover, the Song Dynasty still had Leizhou to take care of.

Zhao Dongting cannot be locked up in any city.

He frowned deeply, and said: "No matter what Boyan's plan is, let's rush to the vicinity of Cenxi first, Cenxi cannot be missed."

With Cenxi gone, the Song army's supply line would be in danger of being cut off.Moreover, Zhao Dongting could not watch Su Quandang and Zhang Hongwei be trapped to death in Cenxi, the Song Dynasty could not bear such a loss.

Qin Han said: "Is the emperor planning to take all the soldiers and horses from the Eastern Front to defend Cenxi to the death? Or to fight Boyan?"

If it was someone else, he would definitely not go out of the city to fight Boyan.But Zhao Dongting, Qin Han felt that he might really have the guts.

Looking at Zhao Dongting since he came to power, how many things are not unexpected?

If he dared to let Su Quandang lead the army to attack Kong Yuan, he might not have the courage to lead the army out of the city to attack Boyan.Of course, the premise is that Boyan will lead troops to kill Cenxi.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yuluo said immediately, "Then, is this minister flying pigeons to pass on the letter, asking Huang Zhijie and Ran Anguo to lead the army to Xinyi?"

Zhao Dongting shook his head, "No, the Qiongzhou Army stood still. I led the Tianxian Army to Cenxi."

Zhao Yuluo was surprised, "Your Majesty, the Tianxian Army, Tiangang Army, and Tianji Army combined have less than [-] soldiers. How can they stop Boyan?"

Zhao Dongting said: "But if Qiongzhou soldiers move, our defense line to the east will be completely gone."

He needs to leave the Qiongzhou army to guard the east line of defense, to prevent the Yuan army from going around to the rear and cut off the supply line, and also to echo with Leizhou.

After all, the Song Dynasty was still short of troops, and there was no way around it.

Zhao and Luo fell silent.

Zhao Dongting no longer hesitated, looked towards Dongheli, and said, "Master Donghe, pass on the order here, the army will start tomorrow morning!"

Dongheli took the order and left.

Zhao Dongting also had some helplessness on his face, and sighed softly in his heart.This feeling of being led by the nose by Yuan Jun is not very good.

Qin Han said: "Your Majesty, if we can't stop Boyan, will we lose this battle?"

Zhao Dongting said: "Isn't there still you? Qin Han, now is the time for you to show your skills. I don't want to be exhausted anymore."

Qin Han didn't speak.

The next day.

Zhao Dongting led the Tianxian army, the remaining [-] flying dragon soldiers, and the Wuding hall to enshrine, and set off from Xinyi to Cenxi.

Zhao and Luo led [-] Qiongzhou soldiers to stay in Xinyi.

Guangnan East Road, Duanxi City, Deqing Prefecture.

The soldiers of Kong Yuan's army who fled the battlefield and the priests of the Green Forest Camp finally rushed back to Duanxi.

After they entered the city, they went straight to the government office.

Hearing the news that Kong Yuan's army had been wiped out, Boyan was extremely surprised, and then he was so angry that he threw the teapot in his hand heavily to the ground.

The value can be described as extremely high. The black-glazed teapot produced in Jianyang Shuiji Kiln was originally a tribute to the royal family of the Song Dynasty, but it was smashed to pieces.

In his 40s, Boyan's chest heaved violently with anger.

He really didn't expect that Kong Yuan's [-] army would be wiped out by the mere Tiangang army.

He knew Kong Yuan's abilities, and being beaten so badly could only show that the Song army was extremely strong.The current Song Army is no longer the previous Song Army.

Boyan gradually fell silent after hearing the powerful grenades and Thunderbolt chariots and other firearms that were enshrined and reported to the Song army.

From the mouths of the priests, he heard that Kong Yuan's defeat was entirely due to the firearms of the Song army.

He murmured in his heart, "Chaozhong finally developed the Thunderbolt of the Song Army, are they still getting rid of it now?"

The Yuan Dynasty paid enough attention to the Thunderbolt that the Song Army played a huge role in Quzhou Island and Guangnan West Road. After Ali Haiya sent the Thunderbolt to Dadu, the Emperor Kublai Khan of the Yuan Dynasty immediately gathered the skilled craftsmen of the court to conduct research. .After several months, the powerful thunderbolt was finally developed, and it was rushed to manufacture and distributed to all armies. I wanted to surprise the Song army and let the Song army also taste the power of the thunderbolt. I didn't think about it. Now the Song Army didn't use Thunderbolt anymore, but used even more powerful firearms.

Hearing these priests' descriptions of the Perak Chariot, Boyan can probably figure out what the Perak Chariot is.

The Thunderbolt Cannon is nothing more than a thunderbolt that looks like a firecracker, and they can also make it.

However, what is Song Jun's more powerful thing called a grenadier?
There is also the Shenlong Gun, how can it be so much more powerful than the Fire Gun?

The Yuan Dynasty tried every means to infiltrate the Ministry of Military Industry and Military Science of the Song Dynasty to steal the secrets of the Song Army's firearms, but unfortunately they failed.Up to now, even Boyan, the Generalissimo of Song Dynasty, has not seen what a grenadier looks like, let alone how it is made.

He concentrated for a long time before shouting: "Let all the generals come over to discuss the matter."

The guard outside the door took orders and quickly ran away.

Boyan waved his hand to let the priests of the Green Forest Camp who were kneeling in front of them go down, and sat on the chair in a daze.

He suddenly had a feeling that he was trying his best, but he couldn't catch up with the advanced level of Song Army's firearms anyway.

The thunderbolt car can be learned, but when the time comes, will the Song army come up with any new firearms?

Boyan scolded his mother in his heart.

Since the little emperor of the Song Dynasty came to power, why is fighting now so different from before?
Facing the firearms of the Song Dynasty, the formation of troops seems to be fart.
