Chapter 165 Rescue Soaring City from Thousands of Miles (1)
Chapter 165: Thousands of Miles to Rescue Lingxiao City (Part 1)
Shaozhou City Gate is gone.
Countless hot gravel, soil and various debris flew into the sky, and scattered into the distance like a goddess scattering flowers.
Even the Song Army, several miles away, was raining stones.
Cylindrical thick smoke shot straight into the sky, and white mist-like shock waves swept across a kilometer-wide area.
What is a bolt from the blue, what is flying sand and flying rocks?
This is what is happening in front of you at this moment.
Song Jun was all dumbfounded. They had never seen such a terrifying scene.
In their eyes, this is simply a natural disaster.
I don't know how long it took, but the shock wave and smoke finally gradually dissipated, and the sun shined through the dust clouds, casting dim light.
Li Yunze, who put on a gas mask and goggles, called to Lu Xiufu, "It's almost done, come on."
The Song Army did not have such advanced equipment, they only had masks distributed by Li Yunze.
It didn't matter that they didn't understand this. Everyone's morale was at an all-time high, and they rushed towards the ruined walls with shouts and shouts like a tide.
Shaozhou City Gate has disappeared, leaving only a huge pit.
The surrounding ruins and the sprayed material showing radial traces are the last traces of this famous pass.
This famous city gate is not very big, and it can accommodate thousands of people and horses at most.
At this time, the thousands of Mongolian troops had basically been wiped out, and those who were closer disappeared without even leaving a piece of rag behind.
As for the Mongolian soldiers in the distance, apart from those who were smashed to death, many people still seemed to be intact, but there was no sign of life.
Song Jun came forward to inspect it, and when he stretched out his hand and broke the bones, it collapsed.
Swept by such a terrifying shock wave, and in a pass that could be called a confined space, it can only be said that they walked very peacefully.
After leaving the pass, in the Noda camp, it was a scene that looked like the end of the world.
They were close to each other, so they were also affected.
Camps close to the pass were directly destroyed, and those farther away were also bombarded by falling rocks.
None of this is important. What is important is that when faced with such a terrorist attack that can be called a natural disaster, the already fragile morale collapsed again.
Even Zhang Hongfan, who was regarded as a famous general, only dared to run away with his personal guards and cronies at this time, and did not dare to stop the defeated troops and maintain order.
When the Song army entered the camp, the scene here was like the end of the world.
It's not that surprising, after all, when the Song army lost a battle in the past, there would be such devastating camp bombings.
The entire Mongolian army on Guangnan East Road was almost wiped out in one battle, and the remaining troops fled northward like crazy.
Of the 50,000 troops at the Shaozhou Pass, tens of thousands died from a shocking blow, crazy fighting, crowding and stampeding, etc.
Afterwards, the highly motivated Song army pursued them for more than 20 miles and captured 20,000 to 30,000 prisoners, many of whom were unconscious.
After all, they don't know what C4 is, so it's normal for their spirits to be broken when faced with a force that can be called a natural disaster.
There are still many Mongolian troops who have collapsed into the surrounding mountains, and they can wait for the Song army to slowly clean up and search in the future.
The Song army, which had been defeated for many years, was demoralized by this battle.
Without any surprise, Lu Xiufu, who was so excited that his eyes filled with tears, rewarded the three armies with a banquet.
During this period, Li Yunze was greeted with all kinds of compliments and words of gratitude.
He was not acting, but really grateful to Li Yunze for his help.
Without this national master, they would have sunk to the bottom of the sea.
At this time, Lu Xiufu was already thinking about heading north all the way back to Lin'an.
"I will take all the gold and copper coins in the loot, and all the horses will be mine. I will take half of the various military supplies, and I will leave all the silk and silk to you."
Faced with the distribution plan proposed by Li Yunze, Lu Xiufu, a scholar, agreed without any hesitation.
Not to mention leaving so many things for himself, he wouldn't care even if they were all taken away by Li Yunze.
Almost all the property looted by the Mongolian army on Guangnan East Road fell into the hands of the Song army.
Li Yunze took the gold back to the modern world to buy supplies, the copper coins were for distributing salaries and rewards, and the horses were used as transportation tools to improve the mobility of his troops.
Needless to say, there is no need to say much about military resources. They are reserves left in order to continue fighting.
"I want to go to Shu." But what Li Yunze said next made Lu Xiufu shocked.
"Sir." Lu Xiufu's face was full of confusion, "Why is this?"
"The defenders of Lingxiao City are still holding on." Li Yunze admired the defenders of Lingxiao City who persisted until nine years after the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty, and was determined to rescue them first.
Another reason that is difficult to explain is to give the Mongolian army a chance to drive away Song Ting.
He was saving the world, not Song Ting.
"Lingxiao City" Lu Xiufu was in a trance when he heard the name.
The Shu region has always been the front line against the Mongolian army, and the local soldiers and people's will to resist is also extremely determined.
Because of the Kuoduan Massacre of Shu and the repeated attacks and massacres by the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, the will of the local soldiers and civilians to resist was aroused.
Since there was no way to avoid Meng Yuan's butcher's knife, of course he had to fight tooth and nail.
"The whole army is on horseback. It won't be long before we go back quickly." Li Yunze comforted, "Xianggong Lu can calm Guangnan East Road during this period of time, gather the people's and military forces, and prepare for the recovery of China."
Most of the people in the Song Dynasty had been beaten to the point of losing their spirits, and they only wanted to seek peace and peace, even from Lin'an Pian'an to Guangnan East Road.
It is really rare for a militant like Lu Xiufu to fight back.
Because those who sincerely took the initiative were either killed or captured in previous battles.
And those who were able to escape until now were all those who could run fast with oil on their soles.
"How long have you been here, sir?" Lu Xiufu looked excited and quickly stepped forward to shake hands.
Li Yunze had no choice but to stay out of the way "for two or three months."
From Guangnan East Road to Shu, it seems that the distance is not too far. But in fact, there are many rivers and countless mountains.
Moreover, there are areas controlled by the Mongolian army along the way, so we have to fight all the way through.
Had it not been for the capture of a large number of horses, Li Yunze would not have been able to fight back and forth in two or three months.
"But." Lu Xiufu was a little anxious, "What if the Mongolian army comes again? How can we win without you here?"
'I have got everything I want from Song Ting. I just want the Mongolian army to drive you away so that you can have more freedom to do things.'
Li Yunze Zhanyan responded, "Master, please don't panic. The main force of the Mongolian army has been defeated by someone and will not be able to come back in a short time."
"And even if you come back, the imperial troops and horses will be able to stop you for a while due to their geographical advantages, so you won't be able to do it, right?"
Zhang Hongfan's soldiers and horses were indeed defeated. There were almost no soldiers and horses out of 100,000 on Guangnan East Road.
But Meng Yuan's troops were not all on Guangnan East Road, and their millions of troops were not just announced.
With the help of large numbers of cavalry and horses, they were able to make a comeback in a short time.
Of course, there is no need to tell Lu Xiufu these words.
"If something goes wrong." Li Yunze took a step forward and lowered his voice, "My husband can ask the emperor and the queen mother to board a boat for temporary refuge. If that doesn't work, go out to sea and find an island to stay temporarily. Whether it's coastal islands or even go directly to the Japanese country.
"
Lu Xiufu nodded heavily, "Thank you sir for your advice."
In the past, if you ran to the sea, there was really no place to go. Now even if you run to the sea, there is still a large army of national troops to rely on, right?
After repairing for several days, interrogating and inquiring about the composition of the prisoners, and finding several beautiful places to dispose of the livestock with blood-stained hands, Li Yunze said goodbye to Lu Xiufu, took tens of thousands of horses, and drove tens of thousands of horses.
The horses went straight to Shu.
The core of his troops were three thousand Northern Song troops.
After that came the local good men recruited from Guangnan East Road who had a bloody feud with Meng Yuan, and then came the selected captive soldiers.
Lu Xiufu led his troops to stay here in Shaozhou, renovated the pass city, set up a blockade, and eagerly awaited Li Yunze's return.
The road to Shu was not peaceful, because all the cities and villages in the counties and counties along the way were the territory of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty.
Faced with this large army under the banner of the Song Army, the villages and towns along the way were timid and did not dare to contact them, and they did not even dare to sell food or anything.
Li Yunze did not force them. After all, the Song army lost the battle because they were incompetent, so why should they vent their anger on the people.
As long as there are no Mongolian soldiers and horses in the villages and towns, they can pass through the villages and towns without entering.
As for the county and state capitals along the way, there must be Mongolian and Yuan soldiers stationed there, so there is no need to say that they can all be conquered directly.
If there are prisoners, then deal with them and select them in an increasingly proficient way.
The military resources in the city were naturally exhausted, and those who colluded with the Meng Yuan were also dealt with.
The next step is to expand the army in the city. Those who have enmity with Meng Yuan can join the army to feed and pay the auxiliary soldiers.
The Meng Yuan Dynasty slaughtered and plundered all the way, and treated human life as nothing at the local level. It can be said that there were enemies all over the world.
Li Yunze's troops marched all the way, and wherever they went there were people who volunteered.
Of course, these people's fighting ability and fighting will are not good enough, and they still need to be tempered by time and battle formations.
Such a mighty Song army marched everywhere in the hinterland of the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties, conquering cities and towns, and naturally attracted the attention of the nearby Mongolian troops.
Although they received news of the defeat at Guangnan East Road, they did not know the details.
Therefore, Li Yunze's department was not paid much attention to.
First a thousand households came, then two thousand households, and then after successive failures, finally a whole ten thousand households were transferred from Chongqing Prefecture on Kuizhou Road.
This is the most important combat force on the entire Kuizhou Road, and this time they are all out in force.
Li Yunze, who always flies drones for reconnaissance wherever he goes, noticed this troop early on.
Then he chose a valley with mountains and dense forests on both sides as the battlefield.
He arranged the main troops and horses in the mountains and forests on both sides. He personally led a thousand of the most elite Song Army soldiers and set up an armored formation at the exit.
Little did he expect that the Mongolian army's whereabouts would be discovered early on. Only after the entire army entered the valley did they realize that they were surrounded.
The entrance to the valley was blocked by massive rocks, soil and fireballs pushed down from the mountains, and crossbow arrows rained down from the mountains and forests on both sides.
Saihan, a member of the Mongolian army, made a prompt decision and ordered his men to charge towards Li Yunze.
There was only a thousand Song troops, how could they withstand the attack of ten thousand households?
Then, they saw the Great Compassionate Gatling Bodhisattva that Li Yunze had set up on the ammunition box.
The road in the valley is narrow and the Mongolian army's charging route is very crowded. It is a good place for Gatling Bodhisattva to use his thunderous methods.
Moreover, the soldiers and horses behind were unaware of the situation in front and kept surging forward on the chaotic battlefield.
The final result was, of course, being beaten to the point of morale collapse by super-era weapons.
As the order for the general attack was issued, the Song troops from the mountains and forests on both sides surged down. The entire battle lasted less than two hours and came to an end.
"All the wounded soldiers of the Mongolian army were disposed of, and the prisoners were interrogated strictly before digging pits in a forest with good feng shui."
Li Yunze held a tablet to watch the scene captured by the drone, "Clean up the battlefield before dinner."
We have arrived at Kuizhou Road, not far from Lingxiao City.
