The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 862

The atmosphere in the imperial study room suddenly became a little strange.

Kublai Khan's eyes flashed, and he looked at the minister who was obviously a Mongol and said, "Continue talking."

The veteran cupped his hands, "The Song army pretended to withdraw, and Lu Wenhuan rushed to advance the army. I thought it might be Lu Wenhuan..."

The following words were too harsh, so the minister did not continue.Not because he was afraid of offending Lu Wenhuan, but because he was afraid of being displeased by Kublai Khan.

Kublai Khan narrowed his eyes slightly, then shook his head slowly, "Lv Wenhuan followed Boyan and almost wiped out the entire Song Kingdom, there should be no such possibility."

But the old minister said again: "The former ruler of the Song Dynasty was a sycophant, but now the ruler of the Song Dynasty... the ruler is very wise..."

This is another cryptic statement.This old minister is afraid that he has some trouble with Lu Wenhuan.

However, after he said this, the eyes of everyone in the imperial study room were all strange.

Lu Wenhuan guarded Xiangyang for six years and was loyal to Song State.At the beginning, he invested in Yuan, but it was all because he was completely disappointed with the court of Song Dynasty.

Even Kublai Khan, a tolerant monarch with a big belly, felt a little thumping in his heart at this moment.He wanted to believe in Lu Wenhuan, but the old minister's words still lingered in his heart.

Lu Wenhuan, as the coach of the route, if he really had the heart to vote for Song, the army of more than [-] troops along the route would not be able to escape the annihilation of the entire army.

However, it is a big taboo to change generals just before the battle.

Kublai Khan undoubtedly still hesitated.

In the end, he looked at his think tank, Brother Sang, and asked, "Brother Sang, what do you think about this matter? Do you want to replace Lu Wenhuan?"

Brother Sang bowed slightly and said: "I think...it's a big taboo to change generals in the middle of battle. Besides, Lu Wenhuan has made a lot of contributions to our court. If he is replaced like this, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of those surrendered ministers in the court. At that time, the impact will be great. The emperor might as well send a special envoy to Lu Wenhuan's army to perform the supervisory duties. He is not given the right to dispatch troops, but to give him the right to veto. In this way, even if Lu Wenhuan really has a different mind, he can also prevent him from being ruined. The life of my Yuan soldiers."

After all, he was worthy of being the think tank next to Kublai Khan. This kind of reaction was beyond the reach of ordinary ministers.

Yeluzhu and others on the side nodded in agreement.

Kublai Khan also couldn't help nodding, and then said: "Then... Yeluzhu, you can go to Lu Wenhuan's army!"

Sending ordinary ministers there may not be able to suppress Lu Wenhuan, after all Lu Wenhuan's status in the Yuan Dynasty is not low.But Yelu can cast an extremely human minister, of course.

Moreover, Yeluzhu is also extremely resourceful, and he is definitely the best candidate.

"The minister takes orders."

Yeluzhu bowed and agreed.

On this day, Yeluzhu set out from the Yuan Dynasty with Kublai Khan's imperial decree and headed for Lu Wenhuan's army.

Kublai Khan also sent Huang Liangce, the closest master around him, to protect him personally.

……

Within the territory of Jianning Prefecture, Fujian Road.

In the two counties of Beisongxi and Zhenghe in Jianning Prefecture, the people in the county have all evacuated from the county seat.The two armies of Tiansu and Tiansha cut off the rear for the people.

The people evacuated to Jianning Mansion spread without end.

The Yuan army, which was originally stationed outside the two counties, pursued the Song army at an extremely fast speed after entering Songxi and Zhenghe counties.

They probably didn't think much about it.

Because the people in the city have already migrated out of the city, this does not seem to be a false withdrawal.

Both sides have scouts to spy on each other.

The fight that took place during the encounter between the scout teams in the middle is omitted.

The scouts in the imperial army are all elite, skilled in bow and horse, and have good eyesight.Naturally, the scouts of the Yuan army suffered much more losses.

More than ten miles outside Songxi County.

The evening sun shone on the creek beside the official road, sparkling like golden leaves drifting with the waves.

The Yuan army chasing behind is getting closer and closer to the Tiansu army.

This suddenly has a sense of sight that Uncle Liu Huang escorted the people to evacuate during the Battle of Changbanpo.

When the Yuan army was only five miles away from the Song army, the chief general of the Tiansu army finally gave the order: "All troops line up! Resist the Yuan army!"

Wen Tianxiang is best at guerrilla warfare, but this time, he has no plans to let the army under his command and the Yuan army launch a guerrilla attack.Line up on the official road is obviously going to head-to-head.

The commander of this order was named He Chenghua.Wearing black armor and a tasseled helmet, he looked very brave.

As for his name, perhaps not many people in Song Dynasty know it now.But when it comes to his brother, everyone must know it.

Because his elder brother is the leader of the original She people's army, and is now the comforter of Guangnan East Road-He Dongqiang.

When the Song Dynasty regained Fujian, most of the soldiers of the Shemin army and the elite of the Toutuo army were incorporated into the six newly established imperial guards under Wen Tianxiang's command: Tianan, Tianyou, Tiantian, Tiansu, Tianyi, and Tiansha.And the leaders of its army also followed Huang Hua and Mrs. Xu to vote for the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Dongting and Wen Tianxiang trusted these generals very much.Many of them served in the Fujian Military Region.

Thinking back to when He Chenghua was appointed as the commander of the Tiansu Army, this was still a good story in Fujian.Both he and his elder brother are important ministers, which can be said to have greatly honored the family.

After hearing his order, the soldiers of the Sky Speed ​​Army stopped moving forward.The cavalry and infantry stopped slowly.

He Chenghua shouted in the army: "Soldiers, among the Forbidden Army of the Great Song Dynasty, our Fujian Military Region's six Forbidden Army was established the latest. Before the emperor set up our Tiansu Army, we were all just rebels. I know that there are rumors in the army that Our army's equipment and food are not as good as Tiangang, Tiankui and other troops, and even their combat effectiveness is not as good as them, but I can tell you now that it is all bullshit. The emperor treats everyone equally, and the equipment, food, salary, etc. It's the same! If the combat power is not as good as Tiankui, Tiangang and other troops, then our training is not hard enough! Now, tell me, are you training hard?"

"Hard work!"

"Hard work!"

"Hard work!"

Such a response sounded in unison in the army.

All the imperial guards in the Song Dynasty were elite, among which Tiankui, Tiangang and other troops were the most popular.The Tiansu, Tiansha and other armies established later have the least reputation.But in the final analysis, who is convinced?

"it is good!"

He Chenghua nodded and shouted loudly: "Then in this battle, let this general, let the whole world, see the fighting power of our Tiansu Army!"

"Are we inferior to the Tiankui army?"

"will not!"

"Are we the weakest of the Forbidden Army?"

"no!"

"How do you prove it?"

"Kill the enemy!"

"Kill the enemy!"

"Kill the enemy!"

A shout rang out neatly in the army.

Although it was only a few words, He Chenghua successfully mobilized the morale of the soldiers of the Tiansu Army.

"Array!"

Then in He Chenghua's formation, the soldiers of the Tiansu Army set up their formation in full swing.

Their formation blocked the entire official road.

In front of the army is a thunder formation.

Behind the thunder formation is a bunker hastily piled up with stones.

Behind the cover are the Dragon Gunners.

The cavalry all dismounted and fought.

Further back, there are firearms and equipment such as artillery vehicles in the army.

The grenadier battalion was hidden on the hillside next to the official road, and a hundred grenadiers were lined up neatly, aiming at the official road, forming an artillery formation.

In the Tiansu army of ten thousand people, only a few hundred infantry escorted the food and grass first.

Similar to this formation, they have practiced countless times in the military region.

And these soldiers of the Sky Speed ​​Army were fierce men who had seen blood on the battlefield before, so there was no need to worry that they would be as nervous as the soldiers of the garrison.

After a while, the north side is dusty.

A scout came back on horseback in a hurry, and came to He Chenghua, "Commander! The Yuan army has arrived!"

As soon as the words fell, at the bend at the end of the official road, the cavalry of the Yuan army appeared.

According to the scouts' reports, there are about [-] Yuan troops out of Songxi County to pursue.

This should account for half of the Yuan army in Songxi County.It is enough to show how much the Yuan army attached importance to the imperial army of the Song Dynasty, and even feared it.

Such as fighting in the field, both sides line up troops to charge and kill.The advantage that three times the force can create is unimaginable.

However, even though they knew that there were many soldiers in the Yuan army, none of the Tiansu army showed any signs of fear, instead they were all faintly excited.

They are not the rebels now, but the serious imperial guards of the Great Song Dynasty.

Looking at all the battles of the Imperial Guards of the Song Dynasty in the past, how many times did they not win more with less?
Those who were the first to form the Imperial Army could do it, and they, too, could do it.

This is not only to make the Tiansu army famous, but also to win the spirit of their She people.At the same time, it is also necessary to fight against the aura of the Yuan army that was originally shining.

"Prepare for battle!"

Following the roar of He Chenghua and the generals in the army, all the soldiers hiding behind the bunker loaded their guns.

Click, click.

There was a loud sound.

The soldiers who were responsible for mobilizing the thunder formation were staring at the Yuan army in front of them.

Within a distance of tens of meters in front of them, they planted thunderbolts.Although it seemed a bit rough because of the rush of time, these Yuan troops always had to wade over.
