228. According to Jiang and Shou

Without any last resort, how could he be willing to give up the survival place of Guangnan West Road?

After drawing the rough pictures of the mountains, rivers, and cities on Guangnan West Road. Zhao Dongting looked at the picture and was stunned for two hours.

Suddenly, a strange light came out in his eyes and murmured: "I'd rather lose half of my son than one son. If I eat it in my mouth, I want me to spit it out all of it!"

He seemed to have made up his mind.

The next morning, after Zhao Dongting practiced the sword intent, he brought Qin Han, Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Jue to the palace.

As soon as Qin Han arrived in the bedroom, he asked, "Have the emperor made a decision?"

"Um!"

Zhao Dongting focused on the key points, "Abandon Cenxi and Yangshou. He occupied Xunjiang and Yujiang, and guarded across the river!"

Qin Han was stunned, Wen Tianxiang was stunned, and Zhang Jue was confused.

None of them expected that Zhao Dongting would have such a plan. Because Qin Han did not give this option at all!

The emperor is too unreasonable to play cards.

After a long silence, Qin Han frowned and said, "Is the emperor planning to confront the Yuan army to the end?"

Zhao Dongting nodded again.

Qin Han said: "But the Yuan army is just Kuizhou, Guangdong has nearly 500,000 troops, while we only have only 150,000 troops."

For the sake of Zhao Dongting being the emperor, he did not speak too bluntly.

If you put it bluntly, you are stupid, Your Majesty? Are you looking for death if you confront more than 100,000 people?

Zhao Dongting said: "They have 500,000 soldiers and horses, but if they want to eat our 150,000 soldiers and horses, they have to see if they have the ability. Now the cities in Guangxi South Road are extremely empty, with no soldiers or food. The Yuan Dynasty has not yet had time to rule the cities they just captured, and the internal situation is unstable. The front line is so long, I don't believe how long their logistics supply can last."

When Qin Han heard this, he immediately said, "But how long can we hold on?"

Zhao Dongting said: "Transfer 20,000 more troops from Qiongzhou. If you can't defend it, you have to defend it."

Qin Han said: "Instead of doing this, why not advance to Guangdong?"

Zhao Dongting shook his head and said, "The chances of winning are too low. If we are dragged down in Guangdong, we really have no hope of restoring our country."

He was unwilling to discuss it any more and directly ordered, "Wen Tianxiang, Zhang Jue obeys the order!"

Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Jue hurriedly bowed.

Zhao Dongting said: "The military commander Tianyong, Tianxiong, Tianshang, Tianying, Tianwei, Tianman Six Armies, deployed defenses along the river to Liujin, Pingnan, Xunzhou, Shimen, Yulin, and Ningpu six cities!"

"My minister Wen Tianxiang received the order!"

"Mr. Zhang commanded the five armies of Tianxuan, Tiangu, Tiangui, Tianfu, and Tianfu, and deployed the five cities of Yongding, Xuanhua, Wuli, Taiping Town, and Yanzhou!"

"My minister Zhang Jue received the order!"

Zhao Dongting nodded and said, "I personally led the four armies of Tiankui, Tiangang, Tianji, Tianxian, and Qiongzhou to resist Boyan."

But his words made Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Jue anxious immediately.

Wen Tianxiang said: "Your Majesty, how can 60,000 troops resist Boyan's more than 200,000 troops?"

He almost knelt down immediately and asked Zhao Dongting to take back his life.

Zhao Dongting said, "My firearm is not powerful, right?"

Wen Tianxiang was stunned.

Because of inertial thinking, he forgot about this. Yes, there are still many firearms developed by the emperor in the warehouse now!

When he thought of the power of those firearms, a little hope suddenly emerged in his heart.

Zhao Dongting looked at Zhang Jue and said, "I asked you to command 110,000 troops to occupy Yujiang and Xunjiang to have a good geographical location. I am afraid that the firearms cannot be allocated to you too many. Maybe you two can stop Yesuer?"

Zhang Jue bowed and said, "I have confronted Yesuer countless times in Kuizhou. Even if all the troops attack, he would not be able to easily break through our defense line."

"good!"

Zhao Dongting said: "Since that's the case, I will give each army another 200 thunderbolt cannons and 500 Shenlong guns."

Wen Tianxiang smashed it, smashed it, "Your Majesty, that grenade launcher?"

The Thunderbolt Cannon and the Dragon Gun are just ancient versions of grenade launchers and evolved versions of muskets. In terms of range and power, they are still inferior to grenade launchers.

He was still a little jealous of the grenade launcher.

Since Zhao Dongting invented the grenade launcher, the thermal weapons technology of the Southern Song Dynasty has developed rapidly, and its foundation has been very profound.

Not to mention Leizhou, there are countless mines, thunderbolt cannons, Shenlong guns, etc. that are transported to Pingnan cities. Each thunderbolt cannon is already equipped with 200, and the Shenlong guns are as many as 2,000. However, the grenade cannons have never been distributed to the various armies.

As a military order, Wen Tianxiang still has an understanding of the inventory of hot weapons in the Song Dynasty.

As far as he knows, there are already as many as 800 grenade launchers stored in the Leizhou Military Industry Department.

However, Zhao Dongting said: "I will take all the grenade launchers along Wuzhou!"

Wen Tianxiang's eyes widened, as if he could imagine the scene of gunfire.

Eight hundred grenade launchers... I'll be good!

He finally understood why the emperor had the confidence to lead only 60,000 soldiers to resist Boyan's army of more than 200,000.

Moreover, even if the Yuan army is going to attack, it will take time. When the war really begins, there will definitely be more grenade launchers?

According to the emperor's deployment, guarding the borders of Xunjiang, Yujiang, and Guangdong, Guangxi, the logistics supply lines from Leizhou to each city will definitely be worry-free. At that time, all kinds of firearms will be transported to the army, which will definitely be enough for the Yuan army to drink a pot.

He suddenly felt that the emperor's square formation seemed to be better than Qin Han's three square formations.

When he looked at Qin Han again, he immediately no longer felt that he was so unattainable.

Qin Han is powerful and Guigu Academy is powerful. Can he develop these firearms developed by the emperor?

Little did he know that Zhao Dongting was also sighing slightly. If it weren't for the irresistible difficulties in the development of artillery, if there were artillery, it would be much easier to resist the Yuan army.

Qin Han also thought of the firearms of the Song Dynasty, and his eyes were a little unpredictable.

He was silent until then and said, "Master, what should I do if the Yuan army attacked from the sea?"

Zhao Dongting blinked, "Didn't you use the head to guarantee that the Dali king can send troops to help?"

Qin Han was stunned.

At this moment, he suddenly felt absurd in his heart. Was he too full of words?

He lowered his eyes slightly again and stopped talking.

Qin Han naturally already had some understanding of Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting made up his mind, no matter how much he persuaded him, it would be difficult to change Zhao Dongting's determination. Because he was not Wen Tianxiang or Zhang Jue.

With Qin Han's wisdom, how could he not know that Zhao Dongting did not fully trust him?

The two of them were just not openly and pierced the last layer of window paper.

On this day, dozens of urgent military orders were sent out from Zhao Dongting's bedroom, and there were thunder and Qiong's two states among the armies.

Although Wen Tianxiang felt sorry for his longevity and the fortifications built by Cenxi and the two cities of Cenxi, fortifications can still be used in Wuzhou, Pingnan and Yulin. Moreover, Cenxi's fortifications in Zhao Dongting's defensive circle were not all done in vain.

After all, the only thing that really wastes time is fortifications, because life is still in the north of Pingnan and outside Zhao Dongting’s defense circle.

After all the military orders were ordered to be sent out at the post station, Zhao Dongting also took Ying Er, her parents, and the worshippers from Le Wuqian, Feilong Army, and Wudingtang to leave Pingnan and go to Leizhou.

The war is very complicated. He has to go back and see how the logistics are arranged.

If he hadn't invented the chain grain truck, the transportation of grain and grass would have to be arranged first, and it would be impossible to wait until the front line to make a decision.

Take the Yuan Dynasty as an example, it definitely does not have such flexible food transportation tools as the Song Dynasty.

Food alone is enough to make Boyan and Yesuer anxious.

The people of Wudingtang followed him, so Yue Yue naturally followed Zhao Dongting's team back to Leizhou.

In fact, she was Yue Peng's real sister and the owner of the Shadow Hall of Wuding Hall personally conferred by Zhao Dongting. She was also a confidant and should be close to Zhao Dongting. However, even though she hadn't seen Zhao Dongting for so long, she still maintained her resentment because of Zhao Dongting's picking her clothes. It seemed that there was a trend of increasing prosperity.

So, during the march, Yue Yue rode a horse in front, and would rather face Zhao Da and Zhao Hu, two ugly men, who were far away from Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting sat in the carriage with Zhan Lu next to him, practicing two swords at night, and was confused in his heart.

When he left Pingnan, he took the initiative to say hello when he saw Yue Yue, but this woman turned a blind eye and ignored him.

Isn’t this not treating the emperor as a cadre?

Such a disobedient woman, should we give her this practice or not?

Everyone who practices a sword at night will be grateful to anyone who gives it to it, but Zhao Dongting felt a little confused when he gives it to Yue Yue.

Given this thing to her, she wouldn't use it to stab me instead, right?
