The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 37 The first battle in Quzhou

Chapter 37

Not long after, more than two thousand soldiers in the palace hurried down the mountain.

Such a big battle was naturally seen clearly by Zhang Hongfan and others on the Yuanjun Commander's boat.

Zhang Hongfan put the wine glass on the table heavily, and said excitedly: "The Emperor Song has escaped! Order the rear army to set out to burn the boats to intercept."

The drums on the Yuanjun commander's boat were like rain.

Very quickly, dozens of ships hurried to the other side of Naozhou Island.Both sides of these ships are equipped with many waterwheel-like paddles, which are extremely fast.

Li Heng smiled and said, "Our army's victory has been decided."

Song Emperor's escape made them feel that the Song army had nothing to rely on.

Sooner or later, Su Quandang and Yue Peng will be caught up, and only the entire army will be wiped out.

Time passed slowly.

When Zhao Dongting woke up and turned around, he was still on the cliff.He looked down, and he was covered with a big cloak, which belonged to Chen Jianghan, Minister of the Household Department over there.Ying Er and Yue Wu are gone, Concubine Yang Shu is wearing Ying Er's clothes.

Zhao Dongting sighed softly, "Did they go down the mountain?"

Beside Li Yuanxiu answered softly.

Zhao Dongting got up and looked down the mountain with binoculars. Although he didn't faint for a long time, Le Wu and Ying Er had already gone down the mountain with the army at this time.

Looking at the sea again, dozens of ships of the Yuan army are galloping through the waves.There are only a few warships left next to Zhang Hongfan's handsome ship.

At the foot of the mountain, the troops led by Yue Peng and Su Quandang were still fleeing, gradually attracting the Yuan army to Huanglongling and Hulugou.

Zhao Dongting murmured softly, "Finally come out in full force, enjoy the mine feast I prepared for you..."

Immediately, his eyes were fixed on Le Wu and Yang Yidong's army again, and he ordered the guards next to him: "Go down and tell General Yang to lead the army back immediately after the Yuan thief reaches the north bank, and also lead the Yuan thief away." Go to Hulukou and meet with General Yue. Also, be sure to send Ying Er and Le Wu up the mountain safely!"

The guards at the side responded quickly, and then ran to the troops in Yangyi Cave below.

After a while, Zhao Dongting said again: "Go and tell Mr. Zhang, let the soldiers get ready, and when the thunder sounds, they will rush down the mountain. When the thunder stops, charge and kill. Be sure to kill all the offenders in the future!"

Nearly [-] imperial guards remained unmoved, stationed around Zhang Shijie's camp.

"Yes!"

Another guard was ordered to leave in a hurry.

Zhao Dongting stood on the edge of the cliff and looked at the whole situation without saying a word.

Finally, the north shore of Quzhou Island was the first to catch fire.

Dozens of warships stranded on the beach in the Southern Song Dynasty were ignited by the kerosene used by the Yuan army. In an instant, the fire was raging and the smoke billowed.

Zhang Hongfan watched the thick smoke go straight into the sky, clenched his fists and said, "The big thing is done!"

The overseers of the Yuan Dynasty next to them were all smiling, and Li Heng also showed a Maitreya-like smile.

Yang Yidong received the order from the guards, and according to Zhao Dongting's wishes, hurriedly "fleeed" to the gourd mouth.

On the way, he sent another team of guards, asking them to send Ying Er and Le Wu back to the mountain.He knew that the two girls, one big and one young, were the emperor's darlings.

Never thought about it, but Le Wu didn't want to, and shouted: "I want to kill the thief!"

Yang Yidong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he didn't dare to be rude to Yue Wu, so he could only look at Yinger for help.

Yinger smiled and said to Le Wu: "Girl, you are wearing a dragon robe, how do you kill a thief? You will only become a living target."

Only then did Le Wu think of this, curled her lips, and had no choice but to give up.

She is not stupid, of course she knows that wearing a dragon robe will become the target of the Yuan thief.

Yang Yidong cast admiring glances at Yinger, and quickly asked the guards to escort the two of them up the mountain immediately.

As soon as they left, he led his army to gourd mouth again.At this time, the Yuan army on the north bank was already landing one after another.

Another 10 minutes passed.

Yang Yidong rushed to Hulukou, and happened to meet Yue Peng who was "chased" into Hulukou by the Yuan army.

"General Yue!"

Yang Yidong drove his horse to Yue Peng's side.

Yue Peng asked in surprise, "Why is General Yang here?"

Yang Yidong replied: "The emperor asked me to attract the North Shore Yuan army to join you."

"it is good!"

Yue Peng said: "We will definitely annihilate the entire army of Yuan thieves this time."

After finishing speaking, the two of them didn't talk any more, they jumped on their horses and raised their whips, and led the army to rush to the mouth of the gourd.The Yuan army in the back was closer, but it was no more than a few hundred meters away.

Su Quandang's side is not far from Huanglong Ridge.

When Zhang Hongfan and others on board the commander of the Yuan army learned of this situation, they felt that the Song army was doomed.

A Mongolian army supervisor said: "I also said that Zhang Shijie of the Song Dynasty was a general who was good at fighting. So that's what he was capable of."

Someone next to him immediately said: "It's all the Song Army's propaganda. Except for the one in the Xiangyang Battle, there are only a handful of famous Song Army generals."

Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng couldn't help but nodded slightly when they heard the words.

If Zhang Shijie's defensive strategy was really determined by the Song Army, then it can only be said that Zhang Shijie really deserved his reputation.His strategy is completely suicidal.

But thinking of this, Zhang Hongfan suddenly felt some ominous premonition.

Even if Zhang Shijie in the Southern Song Dynasty gained a false reputation, he would never be such a fool.

Could it be a fraud?

But now that he has the upper hand, he is reluctant to withdraw from the army.Even if they wanted gold, Li Heng and the supervising soldiers next to him probably wouldn't agree.

His face sank slightly, and Zhang Shijie thought to himself: "Let's see how the battle situation changes..."

"Rumble..."

He was thinking, only to hear a loud noise suddenly.

Dust suddenly surged up on Quzhou Island, the rocks rolled, and there were loud noises. It seemed that even the whole island was shaking slightly.

Zhang Hongfan's expression changed instantly, "Song Jun is cheating!"

Of course he knew that this kind of movement could never be caused by his own soldiers, so he broke his voice in desperation, "Hurry up and withdraw!"

The smiles of the Mongolian military supervisors froze on their faces, and Li Heng looked at Quzhou Island in shock.

Compared to them, Zhao Dongting and the others by the cliff were visibly excited.

Zhao Dongting watched the Yuan army chase into the gourd mouth, and knew that the general situation had come.He installed countless Lalei inside the mouth of the gourd and on the cliffs on both sides.

There are thousands of these Lalei, and no matter how many yuan troops come, they can eat them.

The smiles on the faces of Zhao Dongting and the others became even more cheerful when they heard the hasty sound of gold ringing from Yuan Jun's commander's ship.

Although Zhang Hongfan reacted quickly, he was too whimsical.

This army cannot be taken back if he wants to.

It is said that Shi Moming'an, the general of the forward army of the Yuan army, and Li Hemu, the general of the rear army, also gathered at Hulukou.The two men saw the terrain at the mouth of the gourd, and quickly reined in the horse's head to stop the sergeant.

The mouth of the gourd is a valley, and you can't enter the valley. This is common sense that every general knows.Shi Moming'an and Li Hemu are both generals of the Yuan army, so naturally they don't even understand this.

Standing at the mouth of the valley, Shi Mo Ming'an, who was tall and holding a mace, asked the general beside him, "The terrain here is excellent for ambushes. Do you think the Song army deliberately induced our army to come here?"

He is a general of the Jin Dynasty. He has always been famous for his natural supernatural power, and he is a famous master among the generals accepted by the Yuan Dynasty.

Pianjiang listened to his question and said, "General, the commander said that the Song army only had more than [-] soldiers. We have already seen tens of thousands at this time. Even if they were lying in ambush on the cliff, they would have no more than a few thousand at most. My Nuzhen sons are brave and good at fighting. , and the later general Li Hemu led the army here to attack together, even if the Song army really ambushed here, we can kill them to the ground."

Shi Momingan nodded lightly, "What you said makes sense."

After finishing speaking, he suddenly raised the mace in his hand high, and shouted: "Jurchen sons and daughters, rush in with this general!"

Then his legs clamped down on the mount under his crotch, and he rushed towards the valley first.

Seeing Shi Moming'an's army mobilizing on the side, Li Hemu no longer hesitated, and also shouted: "Soldiers, follow me to kill!"

The two groups of people and horses rushed towards the mouth of the gourd like two torrents, the horseshoes burst and the dust flew up.

Rushing into the mouth of the gourd, seeing the soldiers in the back row of the Song army still in front, they worked even harder, "Kill the Song army!"

However, when their entire army of more than [-] men rushed into the gourd mouth, they could only hear the rumble of the cliffs on both sides.

Shi Mo Ming'an looked up, his face changed slightly.

The rubble rolled on the cliff walls on both sides, and countless stones exploded and rolled down.

"There really is an ambush!"

Shi Moming Anqiang suppressed his panic and shouted again: "Boys! Kill!"

He swung the mace in his hand airtightly, smashing away the rocks that rolled down to the top of his head one after another.

But those Jurchen soldiers didn't have such good skills as him, they screamed again and again, and countless people were smashed to death by stones.

The horses were frightened, and the Yuan army was in chaos.

Li Hemu was a general of the Southern Song Dynasty, and his troops were not as good as the Jurchen soldiers, and he suffered heavy losses and wailed continuously.

He reined in the horse's head and was about to retreat.But just as the horse's hooves were raised, there was a rumbling sound below him.

Li Hemu and several guards beside him were covered in dust, and then they were thrown out, their bodies were scorched black, and they died instantly.

The rear army he led was even more flustered when they saw the commander was killed and the flag fell.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of landmine explosions continued to explode like spring thunder on a rainy night.

Countless Yuan troops were blown to pieces.

Shi Mo Ming'an was really brave, he still led the army to charge forward.

However, it was less than tens of meters.Suddenly there was an explosion under his feet.

Before Shi Mo Ming'an could react, he was thrown out and fell to the ground with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.

The Jurchen cavalrymen behind him couldn't rein in their frightened horses, and could only watch helplessly as their horses trampled over the coach.

All the way through the dust, Shi Mo Ming'an couldn't even look at the corpse.

This great general of the Yuan Dynasty, who was well-known in history, was changed in fate because of the arrival of Zhao Dongting, and died in Hulukou.

The two generals of the Yuan army were killed one after another, and the soldiers suffered countless losses. The timid soldiers all ran out of the valley.

But as soon as they ran to Taniguchi, countless grounds exploded, and they were all blown out one by one.

Thunder is everywhere.

It wasn't until this time that the sound of gold ringing on Yuanjun Marshal's boat came.

The remaining generals wanted to lead their troops to rush out, but they couldn't give orders at all.He could only watch the soldiers being blown to death with despair on his face, and waited helplessly for the death to come.

The 3 troops of the Yuan army trampled each other, so those who were damaged did not even have to be killed by rolling stones, and fewer people were killed by landmines.

A general raised his head with red eyes and shouted: "Our army is finished!"

Then he watched the rolling stone grow bigger and bigger in front of his eyes, and his whole head was smashed to pieces.

In a short period of time, the Yuan army in Hulukou was already full of broken corpses, and few people could leave a whole corpse.

Zhao Dongting stood by the cliff, affected by the atmosphere, he couldn't help raising his sword and shouting, "Kill!"

Countless veteran officials of the Southern Song Dynasty burst into tears.

The current Song Dynasty needs a victory too much.

At the camp of the commander-in-chief of the Song army, thousands of soldiers and horses swooped down the mountain.

After Su Quandang and Yang Yidong rushed out of the gourd mouth, they heard the sound of thunder and stopped their horses, ordering the rear army to be the front army, and only waited to charge back.

However, on the other side of Huanglongling, the Yuan army has not yet rushed to Huanglongling.

They heard the handsome boat calling for gold, but they stopped in a hurry and stopped chasing.

The Yuan army had strict military discipline, and famous orders prohibited them.Furthermore, the sound of thunder at the mouth of the calabash made them fearful.

Seeing this situation, Su Quandang couldn't help feeling anxious.

"Come back with me!"

He turned his horse's head, took the bow and arrow behind his back into his hands, and charged back towards the Yuan army.
