Chapter 566 Seeing the Finale of the Valley of the Kings Again
Chapter 566: Seeing the Valley of the Kings Again (Finale)
Meng Tianxiang didn't have time to think, but after a moment's hesitation, he saw the Song Army's vanguard brigade rushing in one after another from outside.
"General Meng, there seems to be no guards in Kublai Khan's palace." Duan Donglou came to Meng Tianxiang and said.
"Well, General Duan, I feel the same way."
At this time, the smoke after the bomb exploded had basically disappeared. The two people looked forward and saw an unobstructed view ahead. Apart from the palaces and pavilions, there were no defenses, and no Yuan troops were seen.
"General Meng, the only possibility is that the Yuan army is hiding in various buildings in the palace. We continue to move forward."
"Okay, let the soldiers prepare to throw bombs. Once they find the enemy, they will use the bombs to clear the way."
The soldiers moved forward cautiously under the leadership of Meng Tianxiang and Duan Donglou. In each of the magnificent palaces, they only saw a group of frightened palace maids and eunuchs. Going further inside, they discovered some more
The officials of the Yuan Dynasty, but the soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty were still missing.
"Work in groups of ten and search separately. If there is any situation, call immediately."
The soldiers of the forward battalion accelerated their march and searched everywhere, but still could not find the Yuan army.
When Lu Wenhuan and others led the army to rush in, the Zhongshun Army and the Revival Army at the front had already arrived at the northernmost end of the palace. By this time, Meng Tianxiang and Duan Donglou no longer had any doubts. They both agreed that Kubi
There is not a single soldier in Lie's palace.
"I didn't expect this last battle to be so easy." After receiving Meng Tianxiang's report, Yin Yinglei laughed and said, "Your Majesty is right, Kublai Khan is just a paper tiger."
"Yes, Lu Shimeng, please report to Your Majesty immediately." Lu Wenhuan smiled brightly, and then said to Wu Songhan, "General Wu, your troops, together with the Zhongshun Army and the Xingfu Army, will leave the north gate of the palace and continue to search north."
"Yes, Lu Shuai."
"Lu Shikui."
"The end will be here."
"Go out of the north gate of the palace and search left and right."
"Yes, Lu Shuai."
Not long after, Duan Donglou came to the palace with an unattractive middle-aged man. At this time, I also entered the palace.
"Your Majesty, this is Shopkeeper He, the leader of Longya stationed in Dadu."
As soon as Shopkeeper He heard this, he quickly knelt down on the ground without waiting for me to say anything: "I'm here to see you, Your Majesty."
"Shopkeeper He, I'm free of charge."
"Thank you, thank you, your Majesty." Shopkeeper He stammered, not knowing whether it was because he saw me as the emperor or because he was excited because the Song army had regained the capital.
Duan Donglou said: "Shopkeeper He, tell the emperor what you know."
"Yes, yes." Shopkeeper He stood up and said, "Your Majesty, just after midnight today, my subordinates saw groups of Mongolian troops heading north through the crack in the door. At first, they thought it was a normal troop movement, so they
I didn’t pay much attention to it, but the Mongolian soldiers’ actions never stopped until it got light.
It became quiet at that time. According to preliminary estimates by my subordinates, at least 15,000 soldiers passed by on the road in front of my store. In the morning, about a quarter of an hour after our army's shelling began, another group of Mongolian soldiers passed by. Therefore,
, my subordinates judge that the Mongolian soldiers may have started to withdraw from last night."
"Okay, I understand." I smiled and said, "Shopkeeper He, thank you for your hard work. Now that Dadu has been liberated, you and other Longya members lurking in Dadu can reveal their identities."
Shopkeeper He said excitedly: "Yes, Your Majesty."
The Song troops who left the north gate of the palace sent back news one after another that no Yuan troops were found in the east, west, or north of the city.
"It seems that the Yuan army has all withdrawn from Dadu." I said loudly, "Our army has won."
Later, Lu Wenhuan and others beside me also shouted excitedly: "Our army has won, the Song Dynasty has won." Then, it seemed that all the soldiers in the army were infected, and tens of thousands of people shouted in unison:
"Our army has won, long live the Song Dynasty."
These bursts of voices gradually merged into a rhythmic shout: "Long live the Emperor, long live the Song Dynasty."
Surrounded by a group of generals, I walked into Kublai Khan's palace.
On the third day after recapturing Dadu, I issued a series of instructions.
First, the Dadu Military Region was established. Yin Yinglei served as the institutional envoy of the Dadu Military Region, and Zhao Huai served as the deputy institutional envoy of the military region. The military region was tentatively organized into ten units. Its main tasks were to guard the northern defense line and prepare to march into the Northeast. At the same time, the Royal Forest Army
The third division and four artillery squadrons stayed in Dadu, while the rest of the second division and the artillery battalion went south to Shandong.
Second, the Xiangyang Military Region was abolished, Lu Wenhuan was appointed as the institutional envoy of the Bianliang Military Region, and Wu Songhan was appointed as the deputy institutional envoy of the military region. The military region was organized into ten compartments, and its main tasks were to guard the northern defense line and prepare for the westward advance.
Third, the original Yulin Army was merged into the Lin'an Military Region. Xie Daolin, who was far away in Shandong, served as the organizational envoy of the Lin'an Military Region, and Wen Zhang served as the deputy organizational envoy of the military region. The organization was divided into five compartments, and the main task was to defend Lin'an.
Fourth, the Royal Independent Cavalry Column was established, consisting of three compartments, with Lu Wenxin as the commander, and Meng Tianxiang, Duan Donglou, and Han Jing as the commanders of each compartment respectively. The cavalry column, like the Royal Forest Army, is directly under the royal family, and its main tasks are
As a fire brigade and an attack force, we will go wherever there is a need.
Fifth, all military regions are gradually equipped with firearms.
Sixth, Dadu was designated as the northern capital of the Song Dynasty and renamed Beiping, and Bianliang was designated as the western capital of the Song Dynasty and renamed Kaifeng. Since then, the Song Dynasty restored the layout of the three capitals.
The recovery of Dadu marked the complete victory of the Northern Expedition of the Song Army. Although there were still more than 100,000 Yuan troops on the east and west routes, they lost the unified command of the Yuan court and lacked supplies of food and grass. It was only a matter of time before they were defeated.
Ten days later, the Yuan Dynasty's Western Route Army, led by its commander He Dan, withdrew across the entire line to the north. Subsequently, our Western Route Northern Expeditionary Army was divided into two groups. General Gao Gao and General Zhang Jue each led a force and successfully recovered Shaanxi and Shanxi.
In accordance with the deployment of the Military Academy, after handing over the garrison of Shanxi and Shaanxi to the Bianliang Military Region, the two led their troops back to central Sichuan to prepare for sending troops to Tibet.
Just as A Shu expected, Dong Wenbing, the commander-in-chief of the East Route Army of the Yuan Dynasty, did not immediately implement the secret order after receiving the secret order from the Privy Council. As a Han, he was unwilling to go to Xanadu, and the officers and soldiers in the East Route Army were Han people.
Basically, most people are unwilling to go to unfamiliar deserts. However, because Kublai Khan valued him very much, he had to repay the kindness of knowing and encountering him. It was not his code to leave Kublai Khan alone when he was in trouble.
After receiving the secret order, Dong Wenbing fell into hard thinking.
After three days of long examination, Dong Wenbing finally decided that the East Route Army would be disbanded on the spot, and all soldiers could choose their own way out. He himself, together with the Mongolian soldiers in the army, took advantage of the fact that the Song army had not encircled them, and headed from the northwest to Shangdu.
.
Time flies.
When I returned to Lin'an, it was already February 5th of the following year.
Under the arrangement of the Empress Dowager Xie Daoqing, Lin'an City held a warm welcome ceremony. Both the officials from the DPRK and the people in the city were all very happy. There were huge crowds of people on both sides of the streets, and the people of Lin'an were almost empty. The scene was so grand that it can be said that It is unique in Lin'an City since its founding.
After more than a hundred years, the Song Dynasty finally restored its former glory and regained its lost mountains and rivers.
This is the pride of every Song Dynasty person.
"Wang Shibei fixed the day of the Central Plains. He did not forget to tell Nai Weng when making family sacrifices."
This poem by Lu You finally became a reality sixty years after his death.
It wasn't until nightfall that I returned to the palace and saw the two princes, Zhao Shi and Zhao Xian, for the first time. When I saw the two princes, I couldn't help but burst into tears and thought to myself, "No matter what, , these two children will not become kings of subjugation."
In the following years, political affairs between the DPRK and China became increasingly clear, and military successes were achieved.
In late January of the eighth year of Xianchun, I appointed Lu Xiufu as the President of the Senate and Li Tingzhi as the President of the Military Affairs Council. On March 3, I separated the Law Department from the Government Affairs Council and established the Law Court to formulate various laws and regulations. For the first time, a foreign woman, Nina, was appointed as the first president. At the end of July, I separated Nan Ya from the Independent Commission Against Corruption and renamed it a court, responsible for the review of major cases across the country.
By the end of the year, Tubo (Tibet) in the west, Ningxia in the northwest, and Heiji, Jilin and Liaoning in the northeast were all included in the territory of the Song Dynasty.
After Kublai Khan returned to Xanadu, he devoted all his efforts to the development of firearms, and indeed made great progress. However, due to backward productivity and large military expenditures, his domestic economy collapsed. The major tribes appeared to be inseparable, and the Western Khans The instigation of the country finally led to civil strife. Although it was finally suppressed by Kublai Khan, its strength was greatly reduced.
On December 12, the eighth year of Xianchun's reign, Cai Enjiya became obsessed with cultivation, which made Kublai Khan, who was already physically and mentally haggard, even worse, and even fell ill.
Since the ninth year of Xianchun, I have gradually delegated power to various departments.
On June 1, the 10th year of Xianchun (1274), I left Lin'an again and met Yuan Ji, Fang Ling, Zhang Quanyi, Wen Zhang, Tian Xiuyan, Gongsun Xiaochen, Lan Yu, Shen Mo and others. Under protection, head to the Valley of the Kings.
According to historical records, Emperor Duzong Zhao You of the Song Dynasty died in July of the 10th year of Xianchun. As the emperor of the Song Dynasty, I successfully drove Kublai Khan back to the desert and recovered the land occupied by the Jin people more than a hundred years ago. land.
I changed history, but I didn't know if I could change my own destiny, so I thought about the Valley of the Kings. Maybe the guardian would tell me the answer.
Another reason is that Fang Ling's amnesia has never recovered, not to mention that the boss is also in the Valley of the Kings. It is time for Fang Ling to meet the boss. Although Fang Ling has lost a lot of memory, he still clearly remembers the boss. It's her father.
On the evening of June 30th, a group of us passed through the Qimen Formation and arrived at the gate of the Valley of the Kings.
Yuan Ji, Fang Ling, Wen Zhang and others were very excited to be able to come to the Valley of the Kings again, but I felt uneasy in my heart.
I can’t remember which day of July Zhao Fu died of illness, was it the 1st or the 31st?
Is death scary?
Maybe it was just a dream. When I woke up from the dream, I returned to the future life and returned to Hisashi. I couldn't help but look at Fang Ling beside me, suddenly stretched out my right hand, held Fang Ling's little hand, and called out "Ling(ling)er."
After saying that, I no longer hesitated and walked straight inside.
