One hundred and thirtieth eight chapters Guanzhong one

Chapter 138 Guanzhong One Road

"Hurry, hurry up." Shi Tianze stood on the side of the road, waving his big hand, urging the defeated Mongolian soldiers to retreat quickly. Failure can always hit people. Now Shi Tianze has no previous calmness at all. Although he tried hard to pretend that nothing happened, those who are familiar with him know that his every move is completely inferior to his original charm.

According to prior judgment, Shi Tianze had an army of 100,000, while Li Jun had only 15,600 troops, and the strength was 6 to 1. He also had 500 artillery pieces and had the advantage of firepower. If he fought hard, he would have won. However, the result of the battle was helpless. Li Jun made a brilliant move and used the ashes on the battlefield, making the eyes of the Mongolian soldiers invisible for a while, and they all became living targets for the Song army. They were not an army, they were just practicing sword techniques for the Song army, and their hands were sore and their nerves were numb.

The consequences were naturally imagined, and the Mongolian army was defeated. Shi Tianze lost more than half of its troops. It was initially estimated that more than 50,000 Mongolian troops were killed and injured here, which was the biggest victory that the Song army won in Guanzhong.

Anyone felt very unhappy with such an unexpected defeat. Shi Tianze had to imagine being as calm as before and was really not capable. After all, he had such a great defeat. Shi Tianze was a famous general after all. He fought many great wars in his life and reacted very quickly. After a little thought, he knew what to do next, which was to gather the defeated soldiers, retreat to Chang'an, and buy time with the high walls and thick walls of Chang'an. As long as he had time, he could reorganize the army and restore morale, and could fight another battle with Li Jun. If he got reinforcements from Kanto, it was not impossible to win, so he slightly gathered the defeated soldiers and retreated to Chang'an immediately.

For Li Jun, due to the serious shortage of troops, he could only lead the army to pursue from behind, and could not divide the troops to pursue, and it was even more impossible to divide the troops to set up an ambush in advance. Because Shi Tianze was a famous general after all, if the troops were dispersed, no one would be sure to eat it for him. What's more, there was Guo Kan, who was unknown to life and death. Guo Kan was a man who was free to use his troops, and he was free to attack and defend. He was even more good at setting up ambush by surprise. If he didn't do it well, he would use a trick to disperse the Song army, whose troops were dispersed, would suffer a great loss.

Although the Song army won this battle and suffered extremely small losses, the total strength of the Song army was not as high as that of Mongolian defeated soldiers. Li Jun had to be careful when facing famous generals like Guo Kan Shi Tianze.

The Song army's fighting style was indeed brilliant. It was an amazing victory without paying much money to annihilate 50,000 people. More importantly, this battle shocked the enemy's courage, and the Mongolian soldiers were scared from the bottom of their hearts. It was no wonder that the victory that had been won was gone, and the Song army was also killed by a fierce kill, which made the Song army weak and numb. If the Song army did not know how tired it was, it would be hard to say whether anyone could survive in the Mongolian army. It would be impossible to be afraid of them.

When Mongolian soldiers were in a state of palpitations, they would also think about where the safest place was. Naturally, they thought about the safest place in Chang'an. As long as they arrived in Chang'an, there would be a safe haven. Although Shi Tianze did not explicitly say where they would retreat, they also wanted to get it. Under Shi Tianze's order, they all flew back and fled straight to Chang'an.

Shi Tianze's efforts were not in vain. A few days later, the Mongolian army retreated to Chang'an. Looking at the tall and thick city walls of Chang'an, the Mongolian soldiers couldn't help but cheer.

The Mongolian soldiers on the top of the city shouted, "Which part of you are?"

Shi Tianze breathed a sigh of relief and shouted to the Mongolian soldiers on the top of the city: "I am Shi Tianze, hurry up and report to General Mengwuer to know." As he thought, his official position was several pieces larger than Mengwuer, so Mengwuer naturally wanted to welcome him.

A centurion on the city wall saluted him, "Please wait for General Shi, and the younger one will go and report it." He turned around and left.

"Prepare, go to the city." Shi Tianze was anxious to enter the city to rectify the army, and without waiting for Mengwuer to arrive, he directly ordered to enter the city. The Mongolian soldiers had long wanted to enter Chang'an, a safe haven, and were happy to receive the orders, and began to enter the city according to Shi Tianze's arrangement.

In just a short while, thousands of people entered. Shi Tianze slapped his horse and was about to enter the city. At this moment, a voice shouted: "General Shi, wait." Shi Tianze looked back and saw that it was Guo Kan.

At this time, Guo Kan was completely different from Guo Kan before. Guo Kan was handsome and handsome, handsome and handsome, and eleven handsome men. Now Guo Kan is dirty and sloppy, with many pits on her skin, dense and numerous. Not to mention the pits, what makes people feel disgusting is that yellow water is constantly leaking out of the pit, dyeing her clothes yellow.

Such disgust is rare, but this is not the most disgusting thing about Guo Kan. The most disgusting thing is that yellow water cannot be emitted from his nose and mouth. With the sound of breathing and speaking, one yellow bubble after another popped up, and the blisters burst and made a sound of puffing. Even the person with the most numb nerves will feel nauseous when he sees him like this.

The skin and internal organs are corroded by acid, and it will not be cured in a short time. If he does not have such nausea, he will be sorry for the term strong acid. It is really unbearable to be corroded by acid. Needless to say, the pain is not easy to treat. The Mongolian military doctors have tried all the methods and have no effect at all. Guo Kan's pain is not something that can be explained clearly by writing and ink. It is really impossible to survive or die.

Guo Kan has been in a coma for a long time, but he didn't expect to wake up now. Shi Tianze's defeated general and felt like a dog that was a loser. He was about to discuss it with someone. At first, Guo Kan couldn't help but be overjoyed. He slapped his horse to Guo Kan's stretcher, jumped off the horse, and asked, "Does Zhonghe have something to say?"

Guo Kan nodded with great difficulty and said, "General Shi, please come to the city slowly, there is a fraud."

Chang'an is located in the back, and there is Mengwuer guarding it. It's so good, so there is no deception. Although Shi Tianze believed in Guo Kanzhi's ability, he couldn't believe it for a while, and hesitated: "Zhonghe means..." The following words were very skillfully and did not say them.

Guo Kan didn't understand what he meant. He moaned and said, "The voice of the centurion just now is so familiar, it seems that he has heard it somewhere." He looked like he was thinking, but he couldn't remember it.

So what if you feel familiar? A famous general like Guo Kan has fought countless wars throughout his life, and the number of military parades is beyond reach. I don’t know how many centurions I have seen. Shi Tianze laughed in his heart and was a little confused when he was sick, and said with a smile: “Zhonghe doesn’t need to worry too much. Zhonghe is diligent in the matter of the king, and shares joys and sorrows with the soldiers. There are so many centurions I have seen.”

His words were very reasonable, but Guo Kan shook his head and said, "General Shi, don't go to the city for the time being. Let me think about it carefully. This person is not a centurion or a soldier from the court, but someone else."

Guo Kan said it very seriously. Shi Tianze was not good at rebelling against his intentions, so he had to order the entry into the city to be temporarily suspended. Although the Mongolian soldiers were unwilling to do so, they still carried out his orders.

Shi Tianze looked at Guo Kan and was eager to know the result of his thinking. Guo Kan tried to smile. Because his face was ugly, the smile that was originally like the spring breeze was now disgusting. He reminded Shi Tianze: "General Shi, Guo Kan has no other ability, and can do it even if he doesn't forget it."

Guo Kan did have the ability to remember it. Shi Tianze knew it and nodded, "Zhonghe is not as good as Shi."

Guo Kan's eyes rolled, and his gray eyes were almost falling out, and he said, "He is the sixth disciple of Qingming and Guanzhong Yidao." His words were very calm, no different from usual. The rapidly turning gray eyes had already expressed his inner shock well.

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Tianze exclaimed: "All the way in Guanzhong? Did he go down the mountain?" He looked extremely surprised, even more shocking than his defeat.

Guo Kan nodded slightly, tilted his head and fainted again, and the shock on his face was still there.

"Quickly, ask them to withdraw." Shi Tianze ordered urgently, but it was too late. A rain of arrows shot at the Mongolian soldiers crowded on the suspension bridge.

These Mongolian soldiers were eager to go into the city to find a peaceful nest, but they did not expect that the disaster would fall from the sky. They were caught off guard and shot them in unknown amounts. Many of them were panicked and fell into the moat.

A shocking shout "Long live the Song Dynasty!" sounded from Chang'an City.

Since the court withdraws from Guanzhong, the roar of "Long live the Song Dynasty!" has not echoed in this historical city for more than a hundred years. Now, the roar is back, which is really an amazing event!

There were originally only a few patrolling Mongolian soldiers, and countless crowds suddenly emerged from the city. Qingfengzi was wearing a clean Taoist robe, holding a white whisk in his hand, and the west wind blew, brushing his wide Taoist robe. It was really a floating sleeve, a look of floating out of the world.

Anyone who saw Qingfengzi's appearance was liked by her, but Shi Tianze looked shocked and said in shock: "A road in Guanzhong! Qingfengzi!" It seemed that Qingfengzi was a demon in hell, which scared him.

Qingfengzi whipped the dust, asked with one hand, and said, "My friend Tianze, I am polite to Qingfeng."

Shi Tianze clasped his fists and said, "Shi Tianze has seen Taoist priest. Taoist priest is not in the Nanshan Mountains to practice cultivation, but he has come to contaminate the world. What is the truth? Please tell me."

Qingfengzi smiled and said, "I am not a practising in the south mountain, but to escape the world, to avoid the turbid air. Now, the wise ruler has come out, the revival of China is about to be restored, and the restoration of the hometown is just around the corner. I just want to do some real things for the people in the rest of my life. My friend Tianze, please listen to my advice. In the past, you entered the world because of a moment of anger and served for a foreign race. The ruler was confused and the restoration of the ministers was hopeless, which made the patriots feel disappointed, and the feelings could be forgiven. Now, the world is no longer the momentum, and the revival of the court is unstoppable. The emperor and the wise ruler hope for the wise and talented as if they had been drought for a long time. My friend should not be obsessed with it. The sea of ​​suffering is boundless. It is not too late to return to the court."

"The Taoist Master is very kind, Shi Tianze thanked him." Shi Tianze did not answer immediately, pondered for a while, and said with a tribute: "In the past, when Tianze was angry, he was advised by Taoist Master, and Tianze still never forgets it. Taoist Master is determined and willing to hide his name. He is old under the forest. Tianze is not Taoist Master, without Taoist Master's ethics, and cannot be old in the mountains and forests like Taoist Master. He just wants to do a few things vigorously, so that he can't be in vain for a walk in the world."

Qingfengzi remained in his expression and advised: "My friend Tianze, you are still obsessed with it. The sages go through the world and work hard. The world is different, and the power is different. Now the king's army is victorious, Mongolia is defeated step by step. The court's momentum to restore China has been established. Mongolia is in an extremely unfavorable situation. Once the king's army advances north, the people in the Central Plains will respond. In front of the king's army, the people in the middle of the army will be disturbed, and Mongolia will break the ground. The people who follow the heavens will prosper, and the people who go against the heavens will perish. The young friend Tianze thinks twice." With a wave of his hand, Yangfeng and several disciples kept throwing things under the city. He hit the ground and made a bang sound. Shi Tianze looked closely and saw that it was Mengwuer and the others' heads.

Qingfengzi's intention was very clear about this. He was telling Shi Tianze that if you don't look back and return to the court, Mengwuer and others will be his role models and will be punished.

The current situation is as Qingfengzi said, the situation is becoming more and more beneficial to the Southern Song Dynasty. Under Li Jun's deployment, the Southern Song Dynasty is increasingly in a favorable strategic position. Shi Tianze's defeat, Chang'an is restoring, and the restoration of Guanzhong is already a matter of day. The landing war on the Shandong Peninsula is in full swing. In the face of the strong military pressure of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Mongolian army on the Shandong Peninsula retreated step by step, which made the hinterland of the Central Plains face military pressure in both east and west.

Furthermore, the attack of the Mongolian army in Huaidong and Huaixi was not smooth. The Song army in Huaidong and Huaixi continued to attack the invading Mongolian army under the command of Zhang Shijie, Gaoda and Zhao Liangchun and others. The Mongolian army has suffered a lot. It is estimated that if they lose a few more battles, they will not have the strength to launch an attack again.

In other words, the heartland of the Central Plains will soon face a strategic encirclement in the east and south directions, and its strategic situation is extremely unfavorable. Although Kublai Khan is a general talent, he is not a god and has no way to turn the world back. If the Southern Song Dynasty sent troops to the Central Plains, it would be difficult to say the belonging of the Central Plains. Shi Tianze did not admit it, and he was thinking in his heart that if nothing unexpected happened, the Central Plains would definitely belong to the Southern Song Dynasty.

Shi Tianze's expression changed a few times, and he sighed, and said with a long sigh, "The Han Dynasty punished Ling to death for his death, and rewarded his son to maintain his integrity. He wanted to send his ministers to listen to him far away and hoped to be ordered to be sentenced to the wind and run for his orders. This is really difficult. Therefore, he always looked at it without regret. Although Ling was lonely, Han also had virtue. People in the past said, 'Although loyal and not strong, he would treat death as if he was home.' Ling was truly at ease, and said that Ling was loyal and could be content with death. How could the Lord be loved? A man was born without fame, and he died and buried among the barbarians. Who could be able to bow his body and bury him, and go to the north to make a sword and pen official to make his writing evil? I hope he would not look at Ling again!"

This is a sentence from Li Ling's "Reply to Su Wu", which is intended to accuse the Western Han Dynasty of being virtuous and not treating meritorious officials. Shi Tianze quoted it as an implicit suggesting that the Southern Song Dynasty was betrayed and killed meritorious officials and famous generals. For example, Yue Fei and Han Shizhong, the famous generals of the War of Resistance, ended up with no good ending. Yue Fei was defeated and Han Shizhong left behind to thank the guests, which was really a heartbreaking the patriots.

No one can deny this, which has made future generations feel disappointed for thousands of years!

It was precisely because of the incompetence of the court and the suffering of talented and famous generals and loyal ministers that many talents were lost and used by foreign races. Shi Tianze in front of him was one of them, and Guo Kan on the stretcher was also one of them.

The meaning of Shi Tianze quoted this passage finally came down to the four words "Wu Wangling". He was telling Qingfengzi that he would be loyal to the end, even if Mongolia was defeated, he would not return to the court.

In fact, what he wanted to say was a very famous saying of Li Ling, "I have already subdued the Huns." After Li Ling surrendered, he originally wanted to find an opportunity to return to the Western Han Dynasty. He was an officer named Li Ling helped the Huns train their army. Due to intelligence errors, the information received by Emperor Wu of Han said was Li Ling to help the Huns train their army. Emperor Wu of Han was furious and killed his family, which made Li Ling feel cold and had no plans to return.

When Emperor Xuan of Han was in the reign of Emperor Xuan of Han, Emperor Xuan of Han sent someone to recruit Li Ling to return. Li Ling sighed and said the four words "I have already subdued Hu" to politely reject Emperor Xuan's envoy. To be honest, it can be imagined that Li Ling must have been very excited and excited at that time. He wanted to return to the Western Han Dynasty very much, but in the end he chose to stay in the Huns until he died of old age.

Although "I am a man of humble clothes" only has four words, it makes people sigh, even if there are thousands of words, it is not as powerful as these four words.

Shi Tianze's mood is similar to Li Ling's time, so he used Li Ling's famous quote to imply "I am already in a state of humility", which means he will not return to the Southern Song Dynasty.

Qingfengzi sighed and accused him: "Since you use Li Shaoqing's words, can you do what Shaoqing do? Shaoqing suffered unjust injustice, lived in the Huns, never made any plans for the Huns, did not do anything for the Huns, and only lived for the rest of their lives. After Shaoqing died, his corpse was buried in the south, yearning for his homeland. What about you? You led the army of tigers and wolves to kill innocent people? Did you ever think that you were a Han? Your butcher knife was aimed at your compatriots, the Chinese people who were flowing with the same blood as you? They worked for foreign races, Guo Zhonghe strictly enforced military discipline, did not disturb the people, and did not kill innocent people, which were a hundred times better than you. What else do you have to say?" Shaoqing was Li Ling's name.

As Qingfengzi said, Shi Tianze's army has done a lot of things that harm the people, and was speechless for a moment.

As soon as he brushed his sleeves, Qingfengzi shouted: "It's no different from the shameless scum like you. Come on, those who take Shi Tianze's head will receive 5,000 taels of silver! Those who capture alive will receive 10,000 taels of silver!" His brush seemed to be a magic trick. A shocking shout sounded, and the soldiers and horses in the city rushed out like wolves and tigers, and they rushed towards the defeated Mongolian soldiers.

The Mongolian army suffered a defeat, its morale was low, and it had not recovered. The loss of Chang'an again was like adding insult to injury. The former fierce Mongolian army did not have the fighting spirit. It threw down its weapons and fled, crying and calling her parents. The originally neat team was defeated in a blink of an eye.

Looking from the top of the city, there were a large area of ​​darkness under the city, with Mongolian defeated soldiers everywhere, and Song troops chasing them everywhere.
