The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 312
Within the territory of Tengzhou, there is Yujiang River running through it, and extending three tributaries of Mengjiang River, Rongjiang River and Huanghua River.

Among them, the section of Rongjiang passing through Xiujiang Town was named Xiujiang separately.

And because the Rongjiang River and the Huanghua River just converge at the diversion of the Yujiang River, there is an almost delta-like zone at the source of the two rivers.

The land here is fertile, and it can be said to be the most famous and rich place in Tengzhou.It's just that there are not many people living in it now.

At this time, in the misty night, on this fertile land, there seemed to be countless white tents, and many bonfires were burning.

These bonfires are in harmony with the stars in the sky.

Many flags fluttered in the wind, appearing and disappearing in the light of campfires.All kinds of animal auspiciousness are inlaid on the military flag.

Except for the four armies of Tiankui, Tiangang, Tianji, and Tianxian in Xiujiang Town in the Southern Song Dynasty, all of them gathered here at this time.It is divided into eleven group army headquarters, under which there are 27 division headquarters, all of which have about a thousand people.

These troops were originally stationed in various villages and towns south of the Yu River, but after receiving orders from Zhao Dongting, they hurriedly gathered here.

It's just that it's too late to gather here quickly.

When Zhao Dongting discovered the Yuan army's intentions, the Yuan army had probably formed a siege of Tengzhou.Compared with the Song army, the Yuan army took the initiative.

On the other side of the Rongjiang River and the Huanghua River, and more than ten miles south of the Song Army's barracks, there are also countless bonfires and tents.

The troops of the Yuan Army on Guangnan West Road, except the tens of thousands guarding Wuzhou, the Meng Tuo army next to Xiujiang Town, and the almost negligible [-] soldiers under Song Bitao's command, all gathered here.It is in the form of a triangle, completely encircling the Song army.

Zhao Dongting originally intended for these Song troops to retreat to Xiujiang Town, but they were also cut off by the Yuan army more than ten miles to the south.

Originally, the Yuan army could attack aggressively.With more than [-] troops attacking from three sides, even if the Song army had powerful weapons, they would have to pay a huge price if they wanted to break out of the siege, but the sudden capture of Princess Mingzhu undoubtedly made the Yuan army dare not act rashly again.Commander Boyan and Deputy Commander Ye Su'er ordered at the same time that whoever dares to act recklessly will be dealt with by military law.

Although this made many Yuan army generals extremely puzzled, there was nothing they could do.

And to say that the most angry one is probably Yang Fan.

He presented the siege strategy and temporarily took charge of Ye Su'er's army. He thought that this time he could wipe out the Song army and win the first prize.Boyan and Ye Su'er's orders not to act rashly undoubtedly disrupted his wishful thinking.

If you don't attack the Song army at this time, when will you wait?

But he had only just arrived under Ye Su'er's command, and even though he was sure that the Song army would suffer heavy losses, he did not dare to disobey the military orders.

Furthermore, even if he wanted to move, those generals under Ye Su'er might not be willing to listen to him, let alone those under Boyan.

This made Yang Fan extremely depressed for the past two days, he had already scolded Boyan and Ye Suer indecisively for countless times in his heart, and was not a great weapon.

He didn't know about Princess Mingzhu being captured.

Miao Youli, Jin Hao, Liu Zijun, Jiang Xiu and others in the delta area originally gathered in the delta area to break out of the encirclement after they planned to attack the camp of the Yuan army in the south.They also felt that the later the time, the later the encirclement of the Yuan army would be more solid.But at this time, they also received a military order from Xiujiang Town, telling them not to easily break through.

This military order was written by Zhao Dongting himself, and in the letter, there was no concealment of the capture of Princess Mingzhu.

Jin Hao, Miao Youli and the others immediately knew that the emperor was definitely planning to use Princess Mingzhu as a bargaining chip, so they really had no plans to forcefully break through.

They also know that although they can break through by force, they will inevitably suffer heavy losses.But the current Southern Song Dynasty simply cannot stand such a loss.

Speaking of which, the direction of the battle between the Song and Yuan Dynasties now depends on Kublai Khan's thoughts.

If he abandons Princess Mingzhu, then the two sides will surely start a war immediately.And if he chooses to save Princess Mingzhu, then Song Jun can swagger back to Xiujiang Town, and then the sea will be as wide as the fish, and the sky will be as high as the birds.

Song and Yuan generals at the delta are waiting.Boyan and Ye Su'er from Wuzhou are waiting, as are Zhao Dongting and others from Xiujiang Town.

Therefore, the Song and Yuan sides confronted each other in such a rather strange state.

The murderous spirit of both sides seemed to be able to rush into the other side's barracks, but no one attacked first, not even a small tentative battle.

Most of the Yuan Dynasty.

Most of them are places where dragons and tigers occupy, and countless feng shui masters think that most of them are places where dragons thrive.Therefore, this city was also favored by successive emperors.

Since the beginning of the Spring and Autumn Period, the capital of Yan State has been established here, named Ji.

Later in the Liao Dynasty, it was also the accompanying capital, named Yanjing.

Then to Jin, it was renamed Zhongdu.Until now, many people still call this city this way.

After the Mongols destroyed the gold, they occupied Zhongdu as the capital and changed its name to Dadu.The city of Dadu is still the most majestic place in the world.

The mountain is not high, there are fairies and spirits.Most of them are not majestic, but because of the existence of emperors, they are well-deserved places that attract the most attention in the world.

Even Lin'an can't be compared with Dadu.

Some people say that Dadu, which dominates the north, is like a burly man, while Lin'an, with its beautiful scenery, is more like a pretty little lady.

This is probably why the Southern Song Dynasty will always be bullied by the Yuan Dynasty.

Some critics even said that the misty and rainy land in the south can't raise any strong men.

This is undoubtedly satirizing the weak Southern Song dynasty.But it seems that there is some truth in the saying that one side of the landscape supports one side of people.

The stretching golden dome reflects the golden light in the sunlight, showing the supreme majesty of the emperor.

At this time, Kublai Khan, the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, who was so powerful in the world, was sitting in the Daming Hall.

He is nearly 60 years old, but he still looks strong, his face is about [-] years old, his complexion is dark, and he is very dignified.

In the hall, the civil servants of the Yuan Dynasty and Wu Xun were sitting in rows, but at this moment they were trembling, and no one dared to speak.Because, His Majesty the Emperor, who has been a soldier for half his life and is invincible, is in a rage.

Some people looked at Kublai Khan holding the dragon chair tightly with both hands, still trembling slightly, and they were all very surprised.

They don't know how many years they haven't seen the emperor so angry.After entering Dadu, the emperor cultivated his morality, he no longer drank the strongest wine, slept with the most spiritual girls, uttered the dirtiest swear words as he used to do in Mongolia, and gradually became moody and angry, and never showed this again. looks like.

No one knew what it was that made the emperor so angry.

Could it be...

Are Boyan and Ye Su'er defeated in the Southern Song Dynasty?
You Boyan and Ye Su'er's political opponents have already prepared a draft in their hearts, and when Kublai Khan reveals the answer, he plans to intervene with them.

However, Kublai Khan didn't say anything after being furious for several minutes, he just got up suddenly and walked outside the hall.

All the ministers were puzzled, and after the eunuch shouted out the word retreat, they quickly bowed and said, "Respectfully send the emperor off."

When Kublai Khan walked out of the main hall, they also left the Daming Hall separately.It's just that when they left, it was inevitable that there would be groups of three or four, forming factions to discuss this matter with each other.

Kublai Khan's fury really made them puzzled.And as a subject, if you can't figure out the emperor's mind, that is the beginning of danger.

Companion is like a tiger.

Undoubtedly, a minister who was an extremely human minister insinuated information from the eunuch who was serving Kublai Khan.

But the old eunuch just kept silent.Tell the ministers to be calm, and then hurried to the back of the Daming Hall.

As the trusted eunuch next to the emperor, he knew what to say and when to say it.Regarding the matter of Princess Mingzhu, it is obvious that no news should be leaked now, because he knew that no matter what decision the emperor made, it would cause a lot of gossip for the emperor.

Saving Princess Mingzhu will be criticized for not putting national affairs first.If you don't save Princess Mingzhu, you will be said to be heartless and ungrateful.

Although the royal family doesn't have much family affection to speak of, it's just in private after all, isn't it?On the bright side, who would dare not look happy?

In the back hall where the emperor reviewed the memorials, the old eunuch stood obediently beside Kublai Khan with his hands down, but he didn't dare to say much.

But Kublai Khan seemed to be very entangled, and asked aloud: "What do you think about Mingzhu?"

The old eunuch really didn't want to get involved in this matter, but he knew Kublai Khan's character, so he had to say it.

With the words in his mind, he said cautiously: "The emperor is wise and powerful, and he is virtuous and generous. This old servant dare not say too much."

"I see what you mean."

Kublai Khan heard the words, but sighed lightly, "But that girl Mingzhu really makes my heart love her..."

How could Kublai Khan fail to understand the meaning of the old eunuch's wisdom and martial arts, and his virtue behind him?
That is to put martial arts first, and then be virtuous, that is to say, let Kublai Khan put military affairs first.
