He looked down upon these civil servants who led the troops, and always thought that the Battle of Mahujiang was Li Xia's credit.
This judgment is based on Li Xia's actions in the following years.
Outsiders can't see clearly how much credit Li Xia and Shi Jun had in that battle. They can only guess based on their subsequent achievements. Heroes are always judged by their success or failure.
"Shi Jun?" Lu Wende asked: "He also surrendered Li Ni? Aren't these civil servants all loyal ministers of the Song Dynasty? I still regard him as a martyr."
"Civil officials have the weakest bones, so it is possible that they will be surrendered." Chen Yuanbin said: "However, these are all our guesses. Li Xia will attract the main force of our army, and then Shi Jun will take the main attack... This strategy may not be true."
"Why not? That's my intuition."
"There are only two waterways. We are heavily defended on the Yangtze River defense line. Even if the rebels replace Jiang Cai with Shi Jun, they will not be able to break through."
Lu Wende made sense when he thought about it, and his thick eyebrows wrinkled. "Damn it, isn't there a third way?"
Chen Yuanbin rolled up his sleeves and pointed to the map very gracefully.
"Shaobao, please see...Qinling Mountains, Bashan Mountain, Wushan Mountain, Xuefeng Mountain, and Li Ni are definitely only the Han River and the Yangtze River heading eastward."
"What about taking the land route?"
"Even if Li Ni wants to send his infantry to take a detour, let alone whether the infantry can cross these steep mountains, how much baggage can be carried through these high mountains? How much time will it take?"
When Chen Yuanbin said this, he ended with a beautiful move and said with a smile: "If we take the land route, Li Ni will be destroyed before his troops leave the mountains."
Lu Wende still frowned and looked at the map.
He fought all over the world, and his many years of battlefield experience gave him the intuition that something was wrong.
The ideas in my mind are about to come out...
Suddenly, another general shouted loudly: "The last general thinks that he doesn't have to pay attention to Li Xia's strategy! He is right here on the Han River, surrounded by us, kill him and put down the rebellion."
"That's right! Even if there are some powerful firearms, how many explosions can they make under a tight siege? Killing him will put an end to the rebellion."
"Whatever the hell, let's capture the thief first and capture the king first!"
With these shouts, Lu Wende couldn't help but think aloud, and shouted: "You guys are right! Let's continue the attack today and kill the dog hozen. Once and for all..."
Hundreds of slaves stood on Lumen Mountain looking at the Xiangyang battlefield every day, and gradually became impatient.
"Lu Wende hasn't killed Li Xia yet?"
"No. On several occasions, the Song army almost came to Li Xia's main battleship, but was repelled by artillery."
Baijianu grinned and said, "Yabaochi and those people haven't gotten the artillery yet?"
"They had other ideas and came to me and asked for craftsmen from the Song Dynasty."
"Let's get back to the present." Bai Jianu said, "I can't wait any longer. I'll send someone to tell the Lu family brothers that I will lead troops to help him take Li Xia's head."
"This is a water battle, and the steward is leading the cavalry."
"Li Xia will naturally go ashore if she can't hold on any longer."
"It's good, Dong Shuai is already storming Tongguan, and the news of Li Xia's death has been confirmed as soon as possible..."
The slaves of Baijia listened, put down their telescopes, and said, "Why don't you say anything anymore?"
He turned around and saw Qianhu Boluohuan, who was responsible for guarding the fortress of the fortress, striding towards a Tanma.
The common slaves also wanted to hear what they had to say, so they followed them.
However, just after Tan Ma whispered a few words, their expressions changed.
"Bypass Caizhou and take Xinyang..."
"Impossible!" Baijianu, the general manager of Caizhou who was in Lumen Mountain, Xiangyang, was furious and shouted: "This is impossible!"
~~
"This is impossible."
Lu Wenhuan scoffed slightly and shook his head.
He had just received the letter, and the content was the daily note, which was full of Li Xia's boast that he was confident that Lin'an would be defeated in one battle.
"Li Ni is just exaggerating. With his little military strength, this
The most he can achieve in this battle is to force the court to recognize his throne. Of course, he wants to brag about his own strength."
Lu Wenhuan understood the truth clearly, and secretly mocked Li Xia in his heart for saying that he could not even attack Xiangyang and would be killed in the Han River, but he said nothing about conquering Lin'an.
ridiculous.
Thinking of this, some soldiers strode up to catch up.
"General, the Yuan people have sent a messenger."
Lu Wenhuan frowned, seeming a little reluctant to contact Meng Yuan.
His brothers were keen on forging trade, but he was not.
For many years, Lu Wenhuan was stationed in Xiangyang and understood the ambitions of the Yuan Dynasty better than others. He believed that the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties were not like the Liao and Jin Dynasties, and that Kublai Khan was more talented and ambitious than Wanyan Liang, and he was determined to unify the world.
As soon as this dispute started, the Mongols turned around and built a fortress on Lumen Mountain.
This incident made Lu Wenhuan very uneasy.
He knew the topography of Xiangyang and thought it was like someone putting a knife on his neck.
Just when he was about to deal with this matter, Li Xia suddenly rebelled again.
"People like Meng Yuan have all gathered in Xiangyang, ready to reap the benefits."
Lu Wenhuan sighed in his heart, thinking that his brother and the court had agreed to form an alliance with Meng Yuan, and there was nothing he could do, so he said: "Let people come in..."
Nowadays, all the people coming from Meng Yuan are very arrogant in front of Lu Wenhuan. But the messenger who came today is not like that, he seems very anxious.
"General Lu, please look!"
Lu Wenhuan took the opened envelope and saw a simple map inside.
On the map, the two blue lines represent the Han River and the Yangtze River. There are no mountains, and only a few passes are drawn.
Afterwards, a curved red line fell into the eyes...
Lu Wenhuan was stunned for a moment and murmured: "No way?"
The messenger bowed and said, "General Lu guessed it right the first time."
"You fool people...that's what you Dayuan is like..."
Lu Wenhuan was so surprised that he couldn't speak. He swallowed and turned his head to look at the copied daily notes on the case.
"All the ministers were puzzled by what he meant. When the soldiers arrived in Junzhou on the night of Zhongqiu, Fang Yu revealed that Lin'an could be defeated in one battle..."
A drop of cold sweat broke out from his forehead.
"General Lu. Our general manager said that the solution is very simple. Just surround and kill Li Xia in the Han River at all costs. It is too late to say anything else. Kill Li Xia, and the Song Dynasty will be able to put down the rebellion..."
That night, Lu Wenhuan personally rushed to Lu Wende's camp in Longzhong overnight.
"Brother, we have an urgent military situation..."
"I fucked him! The dog thief seduced me, crushed his neck with one hand, held his waist with the other hand, and shot the dog thief directly!"
"..."
Lu Wenhuan closed his eyes, unwilling to listen to the vulgar words of his brother who was born in Tanfu.
"Brother, at this point, we can only kill Li Xia with all our strength."
"The bastard of thieves that was shot by a donkey and a cow! I..."
"Big brother, big brother..."
With a "bang" sound, the desk was kicked to pieces by Lu Wende, and the maps on the desk fell to the ground.
For a long time, Lu Wende's chest rose and fell and gradually subsided.
Lu Wenhuan picked up a table leg and clicked on several important towns on the map.
"There is no other way. This game of chess only involves these two openings."
The table legs clicked twice, once in Wolong Town, and then in Ezhou...
~~
Ezhou.
One by one, the escapees were pulled out of the prison.
It had been so long since he had seen the sun that Lu Fu's eyes were stung so badly that he could not open them.
After finally adapting to the light, I looked up and saw that there were more than 20 escapees brought out this time. They were all scarred and had no strength to speak.
Later, they saw Gou Shancai holding a knife in his hand and leading three jailers, smiling sadly.
"Let's go and take you out of prison! Hahaha...!
… "
In this way, the group of people was taken to the Yangtze River.
When we arrived at the Yangtze River, we heard Gou Shancai discussing a few words with the three jailers.
"..."
"Otherwise, what should I do? It would be troublesome to let go, in case the military information is leaked. It would be troublesome to keep it, in case the matter spreads. Since we can't find out, we can only do this."
"Clean and very good."
Gou Shancai cleared his throat and shouted: "You all escaped from Li Ni's side. There must be Li Ni's tricks, but there must be some who are not. I would like to advise these guys to do it quickly. Don't harm innocent people."
People! "
"I'm not a meticulous worker..."
Immediately someone started crying.
"I am a loyal minister of the Song Dynasty! I abandoned my official position and fled back to the Song Dynasty... let me go! I will go to Datian to listen and sue you..."
"puff."
Gou Shancai went up and stabbed the fleeing man in the neck who was still shouting loudly.
When the blood spurted out wildly, Gou Shancai raised his foot and kicked the opponent into the Yangtze River.
The people who fled were so frightened that they fell into silence.
Gou Shancai smiled and said, "Let me ask again, which ones are the ones who made it carefully? You can do it yourself, don't harm others."
"Master! I am really loyal to the Song Dynasty..."
"puff."
Gou Shancai stepped forward and struck again.
"Idiot, did I let you speak?"
"..."
After killing two people in a row, Gou Shancai, who was covered in blood, shook his head, full of regret, and said: "In this case, let's all die, do it."
"puff."
"puff……"
Four jailers killed more than 20 people who were bound, and each of them only needed to kill five or six.
The helpless escapees died one by one, and there was blood everywhere on the riverside.
Bodies kept falling into the Yangtze River, swallowed up and swept away by the waves.
"A dog kills a man!" Seeing this, Lu Fu was so angry that he yelled, "You beasts!"
"Idiots, you deserve what you deserve, you know?" Gou Shancai smiled cruelly, lifted up Lu Fu's collar, and sneered: "You are just ***, you deserve what you deserve."
"Yes, I deserve it. I am loyal to this dog Zhao Song who should have been destroyed long ago! Go to hell! Go to hell..."
"You're the one who's going to die for me!"
"I'm a meticulous worker! Before I died, I killed twenty idiots loyal to Zhao Song. ***, I'm not afraid of death!"
Gou Shancai hit Lu Fu hard with the handle of his knife, causing his head to bleed, and he carried him to the river bank with his back to the others.
"Long live the King of Qin!" Lu Fu shouted: "Long live His Majesty the Tang Dynasty! Long live..."
"Die!"
The sword flashed.
"Plop!"
"..."
Gou Shancai watched the body fall into the Yangtze River, turned around, glanced at the pool of blood on the ground, lowered his head, then raised his head and smiled.
"Okay, now that all the escapees have been cleared, we are at ease."
"Old dog, I don't understand. The rebels didn't even capture Jiangling and Xiangyang. I heard that Li Ni was surrounded. What's there to worry about in Ezhou?"
"Then you don't understand, right? The army currently summoned by the imperial court is all in the west of Ezhou. If the rebels attack Ezhou, Lin'an will be in panic..."
