Chapter 181 Decisive battle against the South (I)

As long as the Song Dynasty could be destroyed tens of thousands of troops in Pingnan, the Song Dynasty would not cause any storm.

This head on his neck of Ali Hague can naturally be preserved.

Time passes slowly like a flash of time, feeling it, but not touching it.

In the past month, in late May, the weather on Guangxi South Road suddenly became extremely hot, making it difficult for the military and civilians who came from Lin'an to bear it.

However, Zhao Dongting was in a good mood.

During these days in Pingnan County, the manufacturing speed of various military ordnances has accelerated greatly due to the flow of water production methods, and the surrendered soldiers who had nowhere to be placed were also regarded as coolies and worked everywhere in Pingnan County.

What is most gratifying is that since the Yuan army was defeated, the Song army has risen in prestige. People's righteous men often come to Pingnan County to join the army. Some even have hundreds of people. In addition, the Yuan army that was surrendered, this greatly makes up for the shortcomings of the Southern Song soldiers.

This phenomenon of active enlistment in the army made Zhao Dongting surge in unlimited hope for the recovery of Guangxi South Road, and also had greater confidence in the revival of the Southern Song Dynasty. If the land is gone, there is no big problem. What he is most worried about is that the people's hearts are gone, and the people's hearts are gone, and the Southern Song Dynasty will have little real hope.

Fortunately, it seems that the Southern Song Dynasty has not yet reached the point where the people have lost all their hearts. In addition to the constant enlistment of righteous men in Pingnan, other governments have also continuously raised troops to fight against the Yuan Dynasty and blocked the Yuan army's pace of destroying the Song Dynasty.

In Pingnan County, the entire soldiers' training sounds were heard constantly.

Originally, there were more than 20,000 national troops in the city, plus more than 20,000 troops led by Zhao Dongting, as well as more than 10,000 surrendered soldiers who surrendered, as well as the rebels, wandering brave and scattered soldiers who came from all over the world these days. Now, there are no troops in Pingnan County to reach an unprecedented 60,000.

Among the more than 60,000 people, 50,000 were soldiers who could fight on the battlefield, and the rest were the logistics of each army, etc., which was definitely an amazing number.

Zhao Dongting asked his soldiers to practice all day long, and the logistics team rushed to make siege equipment, arrows, etc., but in fact he also had the intention to advance to Jingjiang Mansion.

The Southern Song Dynasty could not afford to spend money, and if Ali Hague didn't come to beat him, he would have to beat him.

It has been more than half a year since Zhang Hongfan retreated to the island of Juzhou. It is said that the Yuan Dynasty was preparing for war at this time and was preparing to capture Leizhou again. There were only tens of thousands of troops left in Leizhou, which may not be able to stop the Yuan army.

Lei'erzhou is now the base camp, and Zhao Dongting would even rather give up Guangxi South Road than have any problems in Leizhou.

The oppression of the war was approaching was tightly attached to the heads of Zhao Dongting and the generals of the Southern Song Dynasty, and they just wanted to train the soldiers under their command to form elite soldiers of hundreds of battles.

On that morning, Zhao Dongting gathered the generals in the main hall of the government office.

He sat on his head, holding a fan in his right hand and fanned himself desperately, but he was still sweating profusely.

Speaking of which, being an emperor is unprecedented in his position. Even when Zhao Ying was not dead and before he possessed him, he always had clothes and food, and never served him.

However, in the eyes of the generals in the hall, the emperor set an example and was the example of the world, and everyone had a secret admiration.

Even Wen Tianxiang, although he was very angry when he first heard Zhao Dongting lead his army to attack the camp, and he advised Zhao Dongting a few words, he admired Zhao Dongting very much.

He is only more than ten years old and has the spirit of Emperor Shenwu.

In the hall, Wen Tianxiang, Su Quandang, Yue Peng and others were standing, discussing themselves, talking about how to take Jingjiang Mansion.

Zhao Dongting knew that he could only be considered a layman in military affairs, and he did not intend to dictate the matter without knowing the greatness of the world. He announced these generals in order to gather ideas and determine the final policy of capturing Jingjiang Prefecture.

"Emperor! Military information is here!"

And just as everyone was talking about it, a soldier suddenly reported it outside the door.

Zhao Dongting waved his hand, and Zhao Dabu, who was standing next to him, ran to the hall and took the secret letter from the soldier, and then ran back and handed it to Zhao Dongting.

These days, the Southern Song Dynasty has sent many people to various prefectures and prefectures to watch the movements of the Yuan army garrisons.

After receiving the letter, Zhao Dongting's face changed slightly after taking the letter and his eyes swept over the content. The letter had been integrated and submitted by the Intelligence Department. It actually stated that the Yuan army had set out from Jingjiang Prefecture, Zhaozhou, Liuzhou and other states and headed straight for Pingnan. The advance army would probably be able to reach outside Pingnan City in less than ten days.

In addition, Wanyan Zhang's army led his army to station in Cangwu, and the Yuan army's Wuzhou garrison Gulf Gree's army was still guarding, and there was no movement.

Zhao Dongting has become familiar with the map of Guangxi South Road these days. When he saw this letter, he quickly figured out what happened to Cangwu and Wuzhou.

It seems that Ali Hague can't believe Wanyan Zhang, which makes Zhao Dongting feel a little happy.

The generals in the hall were still talking, but the topic shifted to guessing what was written in the letter.

"Everyone, be quiet first!" Zhao Dongting set off a fan at the generals in the hall and said, "The Information Department secretly informed that the Yuan general Ali Hague has sent the defenders of various states, and has personally brought his 100,000 troops to fight to our Pingnan. It is very likely that we will fight to the decisive battle, but we do not need to take the initiative to cause trouble for him."

Wen Tianxiang and others were stunned.

Then, Wen Tianxiang said: "Your Majesty, there should be about 130,000 to 150,000 troops under Ali Hague. Should we take the initiative to attack or defend the city to the death?"

A look of admiration flashed in Zhao Dongting's eyes.

Wen Tianxiang was fighting in Guangxi South Road and was indeed very clear about the military strength of the Yuan army. The numbers he guessed were not much different from what was said in the secret letter. The soldiers from Ali Hague totaled more than 120,000.

Wen Tianxiang missed the only one who was left by Ali Hague to guard Wuzhou and guard Wanyan Zhang's army.

"You guys think we're right?"

Hearing Wen Tianxiang's words, Zhao Dongting kicked the ball to everyone again.

Su Quandang bowed and said, "Emperor, there are many military tactics. If there are ten, surround them, attack them, five, attack them, fight them, and the enemy can divide them, and if there are fewer, escape them, and if there are not as good as possible, they can avoid them. Therefore, the small enemy is strong and the big enemy is captured. The number of Yuan troops is only twice our army. Therefore, the last generals think that if the Yuan army gathers together and attacks again, our army should defend, use the city to consume the Yuan army's strength and wait for the fighter to counterattack. If the Yuan army advances in batches, we can take a surprise attack and send cavalry to weaken their forces with thunder."

When the other generals heard Su Quandang say this, they nodded secretly, and even Wen Tianxiang cast admirational gazes at Su Quandang.

His policy is indeed the most suitable for the current situation. It has to be said that Su Quandang's military skills are quite impressive.

"General Su's words are reasonable." Zhao Dongting also agreed with Su Quandang's policy, "but I am still a little worried. Qin Han and Wanyan Zhang have already surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty. I am worried that with Qin Han's strategy, we will think of all our actions. If we send cavalry at that time, we will end up in the trap, it will be a great damage to morale."
