Chapter 700 Great Victory in the North
The same is true for Guo Jing, although Shanxi's Bingzhou generation is the focus of the Mongols' defense.But this time, he was only the commander-in-chief in name, and most of what he was responsible for was the occupation of Anmin.

The task of fighting against Mongolia was completely taken over by Wang Ping.

And Wang Ping is not as benevolent as a woman like Guo Jing, he will not be soft on the Mongols, and compared to hand-to-hand combat, he will give full play to the advantages of the Tang Army's firearms battalion.

There was a Mongolian elite of [-] people stationed in Taiyuan, but before the troops left the city, they were sent back to their hometown in Mongolia by rockets pulled by mules and horses.

And facing the once indestructible Taiyuan City.

I can't help the devastation of the large "rocket launcher".Wang Ping didn't care how many casualties would occur in the city, this was not something he considered as a general.

What he wants is to eliminate the Mongols.Expel the Mongols and recover the lost land in the Central Plains.

On the eve of the Mongols fleeing to Shangdu Kaiping, occupy Yanmen Pass, JYG, Shanhaiguan Line, and surround Yanjing City.The Mongolian army under Kublai Khan was not allowed to flee back to the grassland.

The order issued by the emperor this time is very clear, that is, the most important thing is to eliminate the main force of Mongolia under Kublai Khan's command, and the most important thing is to seize the lost land.If you can block the Great Wall and beat the dogs, then it will be the best result.

Because of this order, Wang Ping led his army to rush north.

Moreover, his army was the only "motorized" army in the Tang Dynasty. In the last battle of Chang'an, they captured a lot of Mongolian war horses.

So Wang Ping used these horses to form this mobile cavalry.His cavalry opened the way in front, while Guo Jing led the infantry and the supply team in pursuit.

In the end, Wang Ping still achieved his strategic goal, that is, before the Spring Festival, he won the three grand passes, blocking the chance for NMG people to flee north.

This is the first New Year's Eve since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and the palace is full of lively and steaming scenes.

Li Qingwei, on the other hand, seemed a little worried about the battle plan.If you only get back those lost lands, this is not a victory. The biggest victory is to block the Shanhai Pass, surround the Mongols in the pass, and eliminate the Mongolian elite under Kublai Khan. Only by defeating the Mongols can we win more for him. development time.

And now that the road to the Western Regions has been opened up, as long as the main force of the Mongolian army in the Central Plains is eliminated, then he can conquer the Western Regions and Tubo.In the end, Duan Siying surrendered to Dali.

It became a double-teaming trend against the Southern Song Dynasty.Thus unifying the rivers and mountains.

Until the end of today's banquet, Li Qingwei couldn't wait for the news he wanted.He has been staring at the map on the wall in a daze in the bedroom.

At this moment, the attendant shouted outside: "Your Majesty! Great victory! Great victory!"

Hearing this voice, Li Qingwei, who was still in a daze before, regained his spirits.

Soon the battle report in the hands of the attendant was presented to him, and he was overjoyed after reading it.

It is clearly stated in the battle report that the cavalry led by Wang Ping arrived at Shanhaiguan first. Although they were lightly armed and fast riding, they immediately carried heavy weapons and captured Shanhaiguan without any effort, blocking the Mongolian army from returning to the north. road.

After Wang Ping arrived, the Han forces near Yanping City also took advantage of the situation to respond, and now all the Mongolian army is surrounded by Yanping City, the former capital of the Jin Kingdom.

And Yang Yong, the Eastern Expedition Army led by Yang Chan's father and daughter, also rushed northward to help with lightning speed.Now the 30 Mongolian troops in the pass have been completely dumped.

And the follow-up troops led by Guo Jing also slowly received cities in Bingzhou, Jizhou and other places.

After watching this, Li Qingwei was overjoyed.It will take at least five days to get here from Yanping, which means that this pond report was issued five days ago, and before the Lantern Festival, it completely sealed off the remaining Mongolian forces.This made Li Qingwei overjoyed.

He summoned Zhuge Qingyun overnight and asked him to draft a commendation order for Wang Ping, this time Wang Ping should take the lead.

Li Qingwei was overjoyed, but Kublai Khan was on pins and needles.

Standing in the old imperial city of Jin Kingdom, Kublai Khan sighed and said, "Back then, the Great Khan led us Mongolian warriors to surround this place. I didn't expect that one day we would repeat the same mistakes of Jin Kingdom."

Standing beside Kublai Khan, Brother Ali said: "This is the reason for the impermanence of the world, because our Mongolian army's destruction and dream of conquering the world have made many Mongolian nobles proud and complacent, without the bloodiness of the past. If Jinding If the big account accepts our suggestion, withdraws the Western Expeditionary Army, and then concentrates on destroying Datang, we will not be reduced to where we are today."

Kublai Khan sighed again and said: "It's too late, we didn't face up to our opponents from the beginning. Now we have become the turtles in the urn. Fortunately, we have already informed the Jinding tent before, hoping that reinforcements will come Rescue us."

At the first court meeting in the new year, Li Qingwei attended in full dress, while the curtain was drawn aside, and Zhao Ke, who was the queen, also accompanied her to listen to the government.

If the name of the country is changed and the woman goes to the palace, the ministers will definitely object.

But Li Qingwei's country name is "Tang", and there is a precedent of "two saints coming to court", so everyone can't say anything.

First of all, the courtiers boasted auspicious words of "Happy New Year", and after the boasting, the due court meeting began.

The content of the court meeting is very simple, that is the plan for the next year, but the general daily affairs, the prime minister's office has already drafted, and the subordinate officials can handle it well, and there is no need to say more about Song Ci's Yushitai supervisor What.

The second thing that is more important is the reception and maintenance of public security in the recovery area. This is handled by the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Household under the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Yushitai is responsible for supervision.Zhuge Qingyun had already drafted the charter and submitted it to the court. Regarding this kind of matter, it was basically the same as when he took over Shu, and Li Qingwei approved these suggestions at the court meeting.

However, there is one thing that the ministers in the DPRK disagree with, and that is the issue of war.

Because their front line has expanded too much, it will take a certain amount of time to convert the occupied area into their own territory for the current security maintenance.

Moreover, when the Mongols retreated, they burned down many houses, artificially dug up many dams, and many people died, but the mess caused by the famine was a big problem.

As the new court, money can no longer be used only for foreign wars.

The Southern Song Dynasty in the south was scared by Zhuge Qingyun, but it was nothing to worry about.

The defense of the northwest and north is very costly.The court's logistical supply was under great pressure.

Therefore, Zhuge Qingyun, as the head of civil officials, proposed to wipe out all the Mongolian troops entrenched in the pass and end the war.

After that, they concentrated their forces to wipe out the bandits everywhere, and then asked the Prime Minister's Mansion to come up with a disaster relief plan.Calm domestic chaos as soon as possible.

However, although the heads of generals were not present, Zhuge Qingyun's proposal did not receive Li Qingwei's support.

Because Li Qingwei still has big chess to play.
