Chapter 74 Surrounding Guo Kan (2)

Chapter 74: Encirclement and annihilation of Guo Kan (2)

Guo Kan sat behind the handcuff and read the letter under the oil lamp. There was no expression on his face, as if the content on the letter had nothing to do with him. This letter was written to him by Li Jun. In order to surrender Guo Kan, Li Jun personally wrote to him three times, asking him to surrender to the court and not to be loyal to the foreign race. He politely declined with the example of Yu Rang's blowing clothes to report Xiangzi.

The story of Yu Rang's attack on the clothes to repay Xiangzi took place during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. At that time, there were four ministers in Jin State, namely Zhi, Zhao, Wei and Han. The strongest one was Zhi, but Zhao Xiangzi defeated the Han and Wei families and divided his land. Zhi had a disciple, Yu Rang. He was determined to avenge Zhibo, but he failed several times. In the end, he did not hesitate to self-harm his body and made his throat hoarse.

He was disabled and hid under the bridge waiting for Zhao Xiangzi to pass by, preparing to attack suddenly.

Zhao Xiangzi should not have died. When he walked to the bridge, the horse was shocked and the horse refused to cross the bridge. Zhao Xiangzi knew that he was hiding under the bridge and asked to search, and he was caught right away. Zhao Xiangzi was very surprised and asked Yu Rang that he was not a retainer of Zhibo, but later he defected to Zhibo, so why did he be loyal to Zhibo?

Yu Rang said that Zhi Bo treated him with the courtesy of a national scholar, so he repayed Zhi Bo with the national scholar. Zhao Xiangzi decided to let him go with a way out, but he did not agree, so Zhao Xiangzi had to kill him. Yu Rang asked Zhao Xiangzi to take off his coat and chop it for Yu Rang to repay Zhi Bo. Zhao Xiangzi admired him and agreed. Yu Rang had blood marks on the coat that Yu Rang cut. Zhao Xiangzi was frightened when he saw it and died of illness.

Guo Kan quoted this famous allusion and politely declined Li Jun's persuasion to surrender, which means that although Kublai Khan was a foreign race, he treated him very well. He should be entrusted by others. Even if he died, he could only be loyal to others.

After receiving his reply, Li Jun picked up a pen and wrote a letter to him again, refuting his point of view. Li Jun said in the letter: "Yu Rang who seeks fame and reputation is a national sect, but he is a thief of the country. At that time, the Jin Dynasty was in danger and weak, and Yu Rang did not know how to serve the Jin Dynasty. He helped the building to fall and turned the tide, but he was loyal to a traitor, and actually a tiger, which was a disaster to the Jin Dynasty. The loyal and wise men should know that they were favorable and rebellious, and the court was the same as the world. Mongolia was actually a barbarian. Zhonghe did not know that he was loyal to the court, but served the foreign race. Where did the ancestors of the Guo family be placed? Where did the heroic reputation of Guo Lao Linggong in his lifetime?

"I will promote a powerful force, cross the river and fight north, restore the middle and middle, recover the land of Yanyun, and restore the peaceful and prosperous era of China. Zhonghe is obedient and famous in history. If it is against the enemy, the heavenly soldiers will be destroyed everywhere. The heavenly way is vast and the kingly way is magnificent, Zhonghe thinks three times."

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was popular to raise scholars. It was said that scholars were actually idle people like thugs. Like Mengchangjun, he even raised chickens and dogs. According to the current saying, they were unemployed vagrants and could not make any more money in society, so they went to find a rich and powerful family to eat and drink. When the owner was rich, he worked hard for him, and when he had no money, he scattered like birds and beasts. Mengchangjun's rise and fall illustrates this problem very well.

Li Jun's refutation of Yu Rang's theory was a sharp hit and unspeakable. Guo Kan was familiar with the classics and believed in Confucianism, so he naturally did not believe Li Jun's statement. After careful consideration, it was reasonable. The letter showed Li Jun's determination to restore the Central Plains. If this was said before, no one would believe that the Southern Song Dynasty, which was as sick as a camel, would have such a determination. Now it is different. The momentum of revival has been achieved, and everyone has to weigh the weight.

Guo Kan has read this letter many times, and every time he read it, he felt that he could not explain it clearly. Guo Kan couldn't even explain it clearly. He put it in his arms and sighed: "It would have been thirty years earlier." He did not say the following words. He meant that if the Southern Song Dynasty had such momentum thirty years earlier, he would not have committed himself to the Yuan Dynasty, but would have traveled thousands of miles to surrender to the Southern Song Dynasty. It was too late now.

The north has fallen for more than a hundred years, and the resistance of the northern people is no longer strong. Many people choose to obey, and many people choose to enter the Yuan Dynasty to become officials for their own selfishness. Guo Kan, Zhang Hongfan and Shi Tianze are examples of this. Of course, some people choose to return to the court, and Xin Qiji and Zhang Shijie are representatives.

Guo Kan raised his eyebrows, held his right hand on the hilt of the sword, leaning towards the window. At this moment, several windows suddenly opened and eight extremely agile men jumped in. The sword in Guo Kan's hand stabbed towards the man opposite like a wind. The sword in the man's hand met the sword in the man's hand. With a metal clash, the long sword in Guo Kan's hand suddenly broke into two pieces. The sword in the man's hand brushed against Guo Kan's chest and cut a hole in his breastplate.

If Guo Kan hadn't been quick and quick to avoid this knife, he would have been seriously injured even if he didn't die. He was shocked and sweated in a cold sweat and shouted: "Who are you?"

The big man who fought with him was Xu Guanghan, the commander of the special forces, and he held the sword in his hand upright: "We are the special forces of the Song Dynasty, and we are here to deal with you."

Guo Kan doesn't need to be seen. He knows that the situation is absolutely serious, and it is the most serious situation he has encountered in his life. He is a person who is not happy or angry. He is surprised, but his face is silent, and he said: "I have heard of the name of the special forces for a long time. I didn't expect that I will see it today. It is extraordinary. A hero is good at being a hero. Can you tell me?"

"Let's go to Xu Guanghan." Xu Guanghan held the sword tightly and stared at Guo Kan. He knew that people like Guo Kan were definitely not easy to deal with, so he had to be careful at all times, and said, "The emperor said, if you don't resist, you will leave you a way out. If you dare to disobey, today will be your death day. You can see clearly that this is our musket."

Li Jun has made some thoughts on how to deal with Guo Kan. It is good to be able to catch him. If he can't catch him, he will kill him much less than let him escape. So Li Jun's order to Xu Guanghan is to kill him if he can't catch him.

With the sight of Guo Kan's eyes, the other seven great men were holding a weapon he had never seen before. It was the fire sulphon, aiming it at him. Now Guo Kan, let alone a false god, even a real god, would not be able to escape.

Just as success was about to happen, an unexpected situation occurred. Guo Kan's personal captain jumped in through the window, and the scimitar in his hand was aimed at Xu Guanghan and slashed. Xu Guanghan responded calmly and knocked on the personal captain's scimitar, which broke into two pieces. The precious knife just flew past the personal captain's throat, and a faint blood mark appeared. If it weren't for careful observation, it wouldn't be seen. The personal captain felt a chill in his throat, pointed at Xu Guanghan and fell down, his eyes wide open. He couldn't even understand why his hundred-refined scimitar could not resist Xu Guanghan's slash.

Guo Kan was extremely alert, and this moment of opportunity was enough for him. He kicked Xu Guanghan on the shoulder, and Xu Guanghan fell to the ground. While Guo Kan was kicking Xu Guanghan, he kicked the handsome boy away. The oil lamp was turned off, and the room was pitch black, and he could not see his five fingers. Taking advantage of the night, Guo Kan flew up and rushed straight out of the window.

He wanted to jump to the window, and there were several gunshots. Guo Kan screamed and fell to the ground.

Xu Guanghan jumped up from the ground and also jumped out of the window, and there was no trace of Guo Kan. He took out the fire and ignited it, and there was a lot of blood on the ground. Needless to say, the special forces' muskets had hit Guo Kan, but he didn't know how he was injured.

Xu Guanghan had already trained to become an expert in special operations, and immediately thought that Guo Kan would not be able to escape. As long as he chased him with blood, he would catch him. His idea was right, but unfortunately, this was in the Mongolian military camp. The gunshots had already alarmed the nearby Mongolian soldiers and rushed in batches. If they did not retreat immediately, they would not be able to leave. After weighing the trade-offs, Xu Guanghan decided to retreat and ordered them to go. The special forces immediately took action and soon disappeared in the night sky.

As soon as Xu Guanghan and the others left, Guo Kan walked out of the darkness with his scabbard. In the flames of the Mongolian soldiers, his right leg was covered in blood and blood, and blood was pouring out like water. It seemed that the leg could not be saved. The Mongolian soldiers were surprised to find that Guo Kan's face was as pale as paper. It turned out that he suffered more than one of his right leg, and the shoulder blades on his left shoulder were also covered in blood and blood. Blood was like a spring. Mongolian soldiers were used to staying on the battlefield. They knew at a glance that the injury was extremely serious, and it was a problem whether the left arm could be protected.

"Hurry up, get ready for the battle." Guo Kan finished speaking with all his last little strength, fell to the ground and fainted.

As if he was making a note of Guo Kan's words, as soon as he finished speaking, the dark night suddenly became brighter. Countless meteors appeared in the sky, dragging long tail flames and shooting at the main camp of Mongolia with beautiful curves. This was the artillery preparation before the Song army launched an attack. The overwhelming shells flew over and fell into the Mongolian camp. Balls of fire flashed, and explosions sounded, shocking the earth and breaking the tranquility of the night.

The Mongolian army was bombed violently and had already been annihilated by him. There was no other idea left, so he didn't know how to deal with it. As soon as the cannon fired, it immediately became a mess. In addition, Guo Kan fainted, lost command, and had no backbone, and could not do anything to be confused.

After a while, the best army in the world was no longer excellent. The excellent qualities that were well tested in countless wars no longer existed in the face of danger. People shouted and neighed, hugged their heads and rushed in a mess. Looking at their eagerness to escape, it reminded people of the rats crossing the street that everyone shouted and beaten, which was scared. If Guo Kan was awake, he would be so chaotic when he saw the army he built. I wonder what this god man thought.

The main business is mainly Mongolians, and there are almost no other Han people, which is the most elite part of the Mongolian army. Logically speaking, they are more calm than other armies, but they did not expect that they would be so unbearable in front of artillery, and they would lose the majesty of conquering the cavalry of the Eurasian continent.

The established plan of the Song army was to bomb the main camp for two hours, with extremely sufficient preparations, with so many shells as if they were not expensive, and they kept pouring into the Mongolian camp. It seemed that Li Jun was cruel to not razing the Mongolian camp to the ground and never stopping.

Li Jun set the shelling time to two hours, which was one more hour than the first stage of the battle. He had a purpose. Li Jun knew that the Mongols had always been proud and thought they could not defeat the battle. So he let them taste the tormented days like hell, which made them feel scared and scared from their bones. When they mentioned artillery, they would be full of souls. They would completely defeat their confidence, and they knew that the Song army was not easy to mess with, and they would lose the courage to fight with the Song army again.

As for how many Mongolian soldiers will be killed, that is another matter. For the enemy, the more deaths the better. It is the result of the war that Li Jun would not consider.

Time was lost in the earth-shaking explosion. For the Mongolian army, it was even more uncomfortable and harder to endure the baptism of artillery fire than to accept the challenge of the devil. For the Song army, the explosion sounded beautiful and pleasant, and even the Tianyin Fairy Music might not be so pleasant.

"I am incompetent in the emperor and I have not completed the task of capturing Guo Kan alive." Xu Guanghan apologized to Li Jun. This was the first time since the establishment of the special forces, Xu Guanghan was worried and dissatisfied, and said, "Your Majesty, please allow me to act again."

Li Jun stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the artillery fire pouring into the Mongolian military camp, and said, "This is not necessary. You are an expert in special operations. You should know that it is not easy for special forces to invest in one go. It requires a lot of work and accurate information. None of these are available now. If a person like Guo Kan is easily caught by you, he will not call Guo Kan. You have seriously injured him, whether he is dead or alive, or not, or not, he will be seriously injured and die." Gentle words comforted him.

Xu Guanghan still couldn't let go and said, "Your Majesty, just once, let me go."

Li Jun understood his mood very much and said, "I know you have never missed your hand. I can understand this mood. There is no need to go to the Mongolian military camp now. Look, under such intensive bombing, it will be very dangerous if you go. Each of you is a treasure of the Song Dynasty and a pride of China. I don't want you to lose anything. Otherwise, I can't explain it to the people." He said to Liao Shenggong: "General Liao, please arrange it immediately and send someone to search. For Guo Kan, you have to see someone in your life and see the corpse when you die. You must never let him escape."

"After the order." Liao Shenggong received the order.

"You are responsible for this matter." Li Jun said to Liao Shenggong: "By the way, I will inform Zheng Jinghe immediately and ask him to completely block the Yangtze River waterway. All important roads and places where the rivers may cross the river must be visited to prevent Guo Kan from escaping across the Yangtze River."

Guo Kan has been seriously injured, and it is a problem whether he can escape the fierce bombing of the Song army. Besides, even if he avoids artillery fire, he may not be able to escape the search of the Song army. Li Jun is determined to win him. The people sent must be capable personnel, and there are many, which is tantamount to a large net. Let's take a step back, if Guo Kan escaped both levels and the Yangtze River Waterway, it is difficult to say whether he can escape. It can be said that these three networks are tantamount to the net of heaven and earth, and the possibility of Guo Kan escape is zero.

Xu Guanghan, who understood this section, became excited again and asked Li Jun for his order: "Your Majesty, please let me search for Guo Kan."

"Yes. But you have to remember that you are not allowed to do anything, you must obey General Liao's command." Li Jun agreed happily.

Xu Guanghan said in a serious manner, saying, "Prince, please rest assured, I will listen to General Liao."

At dawn, artillery fire stopped as scheduled, and the Song army's offensive troops began to launch an attack. This time, the troops were divided into two routes, implementing a north-south advancing. The northern route was dominated by the Sichuan army led by Zhang Jue and the Jiangnan army as the auxiliary, and advanced southward. The southern route was dominated by the Huaixi army led by Zhang Shijie, and the Jiangnan army as the auxiliary, and advanced northward. The Huaidong army led by Li Tingzhi squeezed into the middle.

After these days of rest, these three armies have recovered and are progressing very smoothly.

At this time, the Mongolian military camp had already exploded with artillery fire. There were mud and dust from shells everywhere, broken limbs and broken arms everywhere, broken weapons everywhere, and splashed blood everywhere. From a distance, I could see red in the east and red in the west, giving people the feeling that this was not scorched earth, but red in the south.

The effect of doubled time bombing was even more tragic than the first stage, similar to the Shura slaughterhouse. The Mongolian soldiers with incomplete limbs kept wailing. The lucky soldiers were shocked and were shocked. They were all scared when they saw the shadow of the Song army, as if the Song army, who had not taken care of in the past, had turned into a demon, and were indescribable.

In fact, the Song army was really terrible at this time. It was so terrible. When I saw the Mongolian soldiers, whether they were injured or not, I asked for help. I didn’t care whether they wanted to surrender, and I would cut them down first. The three armies invested this time and the Mongolian army had much more hatred than the Jiangnan army. The Jiangnan army was mainly composed of troops in the Jiangnan area and the Lingnan area. Before Kublai Khan implemented the great march to destroy the Song Dynasty, Jiangnan was not the frontier, let alone Lingnan, which had not been robbed by the Mongols, so this hatred was naturally less.

Huaixi and Huaidong have always been the front line of the anti-Mongolia. The people there were deeply affected. The Huaixi and Huaidong Army, who were born here, hated the Mongols to the core. They would be ruthless when they had this opportunity. They wanted to die. They would have to cut off a few times when they saw their shadows, not to mention that they were real people, so it would be strange if they didn't cut them to death.

As for the hatred between the Sichuan army and the Mongols, it was even higher than the Huaixi and Huaidong armies. Since Mongge implemented the great detour strategy, Sichuan has become the front line of anti-Mongolia. In order to capture Sichuan and complete the strategic goal of detouring the Southern Song Dynasty from the left flank, the Mongols have never used any means. They are doing everything they can to burn, kill, loot and massacre. The hatred of the people there for the Mongols is no longer something that can be described in words. I am afraid that even if they urinate, they will say "to death of the Tartars", and the ruthlessness of the killing is above the other two armies.

At this time, the Mongolian army had long been no longer as powerful as the former, and was no different from the sheep. However, the Song army was as brave as a tiger. Li Jun's original intention was to train these three armies, but he unexpectedly drove the tiger and ate the sheep. Wherever the Song army passed, there was definitely a corpse on the ground, and it was really blood flowing. If the Song army stepped on it with one foot, a beautiful blood flower would surely bloom.

After this stage of battle, Guo Kan's main business was less than 30,000 people who survived 150,000 people, of which nearly 10,000 were killed by artillery fire, and the rest were killed by these three armies. The Song army came to hate and became more and more ill. He killed the Mongolian soldiers when he saw them. No Mongolian army was not unlucky.

Song Jun, who participated in this operation, recalled afterwards: "The Tartars were no longer majestic, and they could only be slaughtered under our precious sword. At the beginning, we were still very excited to kill the Tartars, shouting to relieve their hatred while killing them. Later, we had no idea of ​​happiness. We only knew that the Tartars were our enemies, and one hundred should be killed. They raised their swords mechanically, chopped and slashed, mechanically put away their swords, and then mechanically put out the swords until the treasure swords fell to the ground. It was not my heart that was soft, but my hands that were soft."

When Li Jun found that the situation was not good, he immediately ordered the attack to stop. At this time, the Song army was already red-eyed and could not restrain it. He was still killing indiscriminately. Li Jun was a soldier. He knew that once a soldier was red-eyed, he only had one word in his heart, that is "kill". It was almost impossible to restrain it at this time. He immediately asked these three troops to withdraw and the troops from Jiangnan to take over.

There is too much hatred for the Mongols by these three armies. Before evacuating, they would have to cut off a few knives according to the body. Look at their appearance, they were simply dismantling the corpse. Li Jun's order was just to ask them to withdraw, and he did not say that he could not break the corpse. What's wrong with chopping it!

This attack had a very serious consequence, that is, many Song army's swords were cut and rolled, and they could no longer be used. The three armies of Huaidong, Huaixi and Sichuan were not equipped with treasure swords made by Huang Yongshan. They were cut and killed more times, and they couldn't do it without rolling the mouth.

When Li Jun learned about this situation, he ordered Huang Yongshan to build treasure swords and equip these three troops. The Song army, who had obtained the new weapon, was very happy. How could they know Huang Yongshan’s complaint: “I know that the Tartars are hard and they still have such great strength. Why aren’t they deliberately doing work for others?”

Li Jun walked into the main camp of Mongolia accompanied by all the generals. When he saw the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned. Li Jun is an excellent soldier who has experienced the baptism of modern wars. He has seen more war scenes, and it is not easy to make him stunned. The corpses on the ground make him stunned.
