He Wu pushed his comrade in front with all his strength.
The more he ran, the more he fell into emotions that he couldn't think about.
Blood was flowing down from the wound on his abdomen. There must be wooden thorns in the wound. The more he ran, the more painful it became.
"Let's go! Let's go!"
Fear made him angry. After pushing twice but failing to push the person in front, he simply raised his knife and struck.
"puff."
This time, it was He Wu who was chopped to the ground.
He fell to the ground and groaned in pain. One foot stepped on him, causing pain all over his internal organs.
Then comes the second foot.
His comrades worked very hard and did not care about him. Every kick was a heavy kick. They wished they could use this kick to escape from the battlefield... Finally, the deserters passed through like running water. Lines of Song troops pursued him.
, shouting and threatening.
These Song troops were much more calm and orderly. They did not step on He Wu, but ran past him.
He Wu has been trampled to pieces.
He was not dead yet, lying there dying. The killing cries moved northward, getting more and more distant, and Baiyang Pass gradually calmed down. "Cover up and kill! Give me the opportunity to take back Wuguan!"
A hand appeared in front of He Wu. The palm was spread out and the fingers were slightly spread. Although the palm was empty, it seemed to be holding something.
It was as if everything was under his control. The person who spoke was standing not far away, waving his hand every time he said a word. "Uh." The blood in He Wu's throat surged up like a spring. The person then
He lowered his head, glanced at He Wu, and then raised his foot. The sole of his boot faced He Wu's face and stepped hard.
It's like stepping on an ant.
Wang Xun trampled the Mongolian soldiers on the ground to death, and continued to command the soldiers to pursue the Mongolian army and expand the results of the battle.
He was obviously very satisfied with himself. During the break in command, he even pointed out the battlefield to Li Qishan under his banner...
Dong Kai, who was also standing nearby, turned to look in the direction of Baiyang Pass and stepped forward to meet Liu Jinsuo.
When they got closer, before Dong Kai could speak, he was already hugged by Liu Jinsuo in a bear hug. Then he heard the burly man cry loudly. "Wow. We finally have reinforcements... Huh?"
Liu Jinsuo was halfway crying and looked at a Song official behind Dong Kai. He couldn't help but be surprised. "Hey, I've seen you before. You are that small official." Wen Yunsun was by no means a small official.
Now that he has recovered, he has been appointed to the Jingxi South Road Prison and is also in charge of the military weapons prison. This is a very high official position. It is rare for him to hold such a position in the official circles of the Song Dynasty at his age. However, Liu Jinsuo said that he is a young man.
Officer, he accepted it calmly, cupped his hands and said: "Liu Tongzhi is well and well. The war is urgent. I would like to ask Liu Tongzhi to elaborate on the situation of the Mongolian army."
The composition of this support army is so strange.
At any other time, Song Ting would never have allowed Li Tan's remaining troops to defect to Li Xia. But in this war, the whole thing was accomplished in a weird way.
On the one hand, the Song Dynasty was unwilling and unable to support Sichuan and Shaanxi;
On the other hand, Li Xia was a minister of the Song Dynasty after all, and Sichuan and Shaanxi were still nominally under the rule of the Song Dynasty. When encountering the Mongolian offensive, it would be inappropriate not to send troops to support it. At this stage, Mongolia, a powerful enemy country, is obviously
It is much scarier than a feudal town with alien intentions. Jia Sidao can still distinguish this. When Dong Kai wanted to take Li Qishan and Wang Xun to Sichuan and Shaanxi in the name of the gentry from the south of the Yangtze River to support Sichuan and Shaanxi, Jia Sidao
Xi Dao thought about it over and over again, then pinched his nose and admitted it.
Not only did he silently agree, but he also named Li Qishan the military governor of the Zhongyi Army and ordered him to lead troops to quickly support Guanzhong.
The name is "Loyalty Army", but it is actually a remnant army and their families that cannot be controlled. What happened to Li Quan back then is still before our eyes.
You can neither raise them nor get rid of them. At other times, letting them go to Li Xia would make people worry that two rebellious ministers and traitors would join together, but at this time, they were used as a shield.
Therefore, in name, this matter was that the imperial court dispatched tens of thousands of loyal and rebellious troops to march westward to fight against the invaders. In fact, it was just a word.
Dong Kai was ordered to go to Lin'an to ask for help, and he actually received many instructions. For example, if the imperial court mobilized troops from Jinghu and Hu for support, Lu Wenhuan should be urged to send troops to Xiangyang again to immediately reduce the pressure on the southern front.
After understanding this strategy, the Zhongyi Army sailed to Hankou, and Dong Kai proposed to turn up the Han River and go straight out of Xiangyang.
Wang Xun immediately agreed and planned to persuade Lu Wenhuan to send troops.
Since the Zhongyi Army was ordered by the imperial court, Lu Wenhuan did not make things difficult for them. However, Wang Xun also overestimated his eloquence.
It was impossible for Lu Wenhuan to send troops. After last year, he realized that he could not occupy Dengzhou. But if he dared to send troops now, there would be no support. If a big defeat led to the loss of Xiangyang, countless people in Jiangnan would be in disaster.
What's more, without an order from the court, sending troops without authorization was a serious crime and he couldn't bear the burden. At this time, Dong Kai met Wen Yunsun. They were of the same year, and both were Jinshi in the fourth year of Xingchang.
Probably because he heard that Sun dared to offend Li Xia in the seventh year of Xingchang, he was reinstated as an official in Jinghu.
But after he took office, before he started to prevent the rebellion in the feudal towns, Junzhou had already been lost, cutting off the previous communication between Xiangyang and Hanzhong. Resisting Mongolia immediately became the top priority. At that time, several Li Xia from Hanzhong
The subordinate officials had been persuading Lu Wenhuan to send troops, and Wen Yunsun learned a lot about the situation in the north from them, and then sent spies to Nanyang to collect information. Wen Yunsun had the means, he appointed the Jingnan Road Penal Prison and took charge of the Ordnance Prison.
Instead, he recruited some Nanyang strongmen from Xiangyang Prison and ordered these people to serve their crimes.
Almost not long after Wuguan was breached, he got the news.
As a person who is familiar with classics and history, Wen Yunsun also knew about the battle of Lantian between Qin and Chu. After careful consideration, he used this as an example to persuade Lu Wenhuan to send a small force to sneak around Nanyang Fucheng and block Wuguan Road, so that the Mongolian army would be trapped in a pincer attack from both front and rear.
Lu Wenhuan thought about it and felt that it was too risky. At this moment, the Zhongyi Army arrived.
This dispatch of troops was not so much a coincidence as it was actually another attempt by Song Ting and its two vassal towns to join forces to fight against Mongolia.
Since Mongolia was still extremely strong, they naturally tried to join forces, more or less.
This kind of effort was not much. Li Fen refused to move south, Li Xia refused to return Kuizhou and Wanzhou, and the Song Dynasty did not want to send too many troops. But they made such efforts, so they had this last
Send reinforcements to Baiyang Pass.
On this day, Wen Yunsun heard what Liu Jinsuo said about the situation in Wuguan and thought that the situation was not very good...
"The reinforcements are here, what's wrong?"
"We need to defeat the 20,000 Mongolian army before the Mongolian army breaks through Languan, but it is hard to say how long Languan can last."
"We did not capture Nanyang Mansion." Dong Kai added: "The garrisons from various places in Nanyang will soon besiege us. But we did not bring any baggage, so we may not be able to hold on as long as Lan Guan."
Wen Yunsun and Dong Kai, two men of the same age, were talking and they no longer cared about Liu Jinsuo and went aside to discuss.
"Uncle Zheng, do you have any ideas?"
"We must recapture Wuguan and use it as a barrier, otherwise we will be defeated alone." Dong Kai said: "We won a battle today, but General Lu still refuses to send troops?"
"He will not send troops without the imperial edict...By the way, can the Jinzhou garrison come to contain the Mongolian army?"
"This Hanzhong is in danger"
"I dare to assert that once we attack Dong Wenwei, the Mongolian army will be unable to drive Hanzhong away. But I wonder if you can believe me?"
"Just send a fast horse to ask General Liu to take charge." Dong Kai said: "We are all ministers of the Song Dynasty, how can we have you?"
"Yes, let's repel the Mongolian army first and then we can talk."
Wang Xun glanced sideways at the two Jinshi of the Song Dynasty who were analyzing the situation, with a hint of ridicule in his eyes.
He couldn't get along with them at all.
After all these officials from the Song Dynasty were talking about war on paper, he had already deployed them properly, allowing the loyal army to cover up the defeated troops and reach Wuguan.
This is Wang Xun's ability.
The storms in the world are stirred up by him, and it will be him who decides the victory or defeat. He will make the treacherous Kublai Khan pay the price he deserves...
