969. Heavenly Nectar
He knew that in the original historical trend, Duan Shi took over Duan Xingzhi's position as the chief general of Dali. Moreover, he did not have much ambitions and was willing to bow down to the Yuan Dynasty.
After pondering for a while, Zhao Dongting said, "Since you are sincerely begging for surrender, then stay in my army first!"
Duan Shi probably didn't expect Zhao Dongting to surrender so easily, and was a little stunned.
Feng Hebi's face was not surprised, and he just knelt down again: "The surrendered general Feng Hebi thanked the emperor!"
Zhao Dongting nodded slightly, "Restrain your soldiers in the army and stay in this Jiumao Pass first."
"yes!"
Feng Hebi bowed his order, stood up slowly, and walked down the city again.
Duan Shi came back to his senses and looked at Zhao Dongting. He wanted to leave, but Zhao Dongting suddenly called out, "Prince Duan, please stay by my side first!"
Duan Shi was slightly stunned again, thinking that Zhao Dongting wanted to take him as his character, so he stopped talking and stayed in the city obediently.
Zhang Jue looked at the Dali soldiers who were gradually gathered up under the city and smiled and said, "Emperor, after this battle, our western border in the Song Dynasty has been completely stable."
Zhao Dongting nodded and looked into the distance to the west.
Now, the troops in Dali and Xinsong have been almost wiped out, but the pacification of Western Xinjiang is obviously not enough to satisfy his appetite.
Before this, repelling the Yuan army was still the top priority.
That night, about 30,000 remaining soldiers of the Dali Army surrendered obediently and were concentrated in Jiumao Pass by the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty.
After the Dali army in Luoxian Pass and other places also arrived here, only corpses were left outside the pass.
Feng Hebi brought two worshippers out of seclusion.
The Song Dynasty imperial guards were on the top of the city, and there were many guns and armors.
In just a short while, Feng Hebi convinced the Dali army in Luoxian Pass and other places who had just arrived.
About 20,000 Dali troops came to pass after they were unarmed.
The surrendered soldiers in Jiumao Pass reached a huge 50,000.
There were more than 20,000 people under Zhang Jue's command. Without weapons and armor, the Dali Army was not afraid of any trouble.
Looking at the beginning and end of the Battle of Chenzhou, the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty undoubtedly won a great victory again.
Although Zhao Dongting arrived and the heavy rain fell from the sky, no matter what, victory was the victory.
Feng Hebi's army lost nearly 60,000 yuan, while the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty only lost less than 8,000 yuan. This is not a big victory, what can be considered a big victory?
After receiving the surrendered soldiers of Dali, Zhao Dongting took Zhang Jue, Ren Wei and others to the barracks in the pass, and the main generals such as Duan Shi and Feng Hebi were also called up.
As soon as he sat down, Zhao Dongting said bluntly to Feng Hebi and others: "If you are loyal to fight for me, the Song Dynasty, I will not treat you badly! It will make you have a better position than before."
He didn't say those empty words or big words, because he knew in his heart that for Feng Hebi, rights and status were the most important things in their hearts now.
This sentence alone is enough.
Feng Hebi and others quickly bowed, "We will definitely serve the emperor."
Zhao Dongting just nodded slightly and looked at Duan Shi.
Of course he didn't believe what Feng Hebi and others said.
How easy is it to die if you want to die?
To put it bluntly, Feng Hebi and their surrender now are helpless. Unable to say, in the future, the Song Dynasty will lose its power, and they will definitely immediately turn to another country.
However, Zhao Dongting didn't plan to give them such an opportunity.
With his eyes stuck on Duan Shi for a few seconds, Zhao Dongting chuckled and said, "Prince Duan is really planning to bow down to my Song Dynasty?"
Duan Shi smiled bitterly and said bluntly: "The defeated general has no way to express honor and disgrace... I just want the emperor to let my life go."
In order to keep this life, he was afraid he would have sacrificed his life and even wanted this face.
Because he understood that if he didn't surrender, he would most likely die. Even if he could return to Dali, the emperor's nephew might not let him go.
Zhao Dongting laughed, only thinking that this part of the truth was indeed weak.
Then he said, "I will not take your life if the prince really surrenders. I can't say it's true that it's impossible for you to do the Dali General in the future."
When Duan Shi heard this, his eyes suddenly burst out with his brilliance. He actually stood up and knelt down on the ground, shouting: "Duan Shi is willing to be the emperor!"
For him, being the chief supervisor of Dali is much better than being the prince of Dali. Because the chief supervisor of Dali is the heaven in Dali, and the prince is just a royal relative after all.
...
Fujian Road, Yongquan Temple, Gushan, Fuzhou.
Time goes back to afternoon.
The fire lasted for nearly an hour and gradually spread towards Yongquan Temple.
Although the Song Dynasty imperial guards cleaned up an isolation belt outside the temple, the surging smoke still made everyone cry and snot.
Fortunately, Yongquan Temple is located high enough, otherwise the smoke alone would probably have taken away many lives.
The old monk Huizhi and the monks were still sitting cross-legged on the ground chanting sutras.
Gao Tianzong, Che Hongyu and others gradually showed anxiety on their faces. If the fire continued to spread like this, they might have to be buried here.
And at this moment, the sky above Fuzhou was suddenly changing.
Dark clouds suddenly gathered, and a cool breath swept the original heat.
Heavy rain fell from the sky.
As soon as the rain fell, it was like a pouring momentum. The drops hit people's face, which made people feel a little painful.
However, no matter how heavy the rain is, it is a rain for the soldiers in the Fuzhou garrison army.
The soldiers all looked up at the sky in a daze, and then burst into cheers.
The monks sitting cross-legged on the ground also opened their eyes and were quite surprised. At this moment, their belief in the Buddha was probably more pious.
The Yuan army at the foot of the mountain was stunned.
Originally, the mountain was burned well, and I thought that the fire could destroy the Song army on the mountain, but what did I think that it would rain at this time?
There were countless generals under A Shu’s command cursing at God in their hearts.
No matter how fierce the scolding is, the rain will naturally not stop, and there is a tendency to become heavier and heavier.
The surging flames on the mountain gradually showed signs of being destroyed.
A Shu led the army at the foot of the mountain and was soon poured into a chicken.
Although A Shu had a carriage to shelter from the rain, his face was ugly. Seeing the soldiers standing in the rain, he narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Tell the army to surround the mountains and prepare to attack!"
Although the fire seemed to be unable to burn the Song army on the mountain to death, he still had time to encircle the entire Gushan Mountain.
In the current overall situation, the Yuan army still takes the absolute initiative.
"yes!"
A general beside the A Shu carriage bowed his hand and ordered him to leave.
Not long after, the Yuan army's generals such as Bagen led their soldiers to the surrounding Gushan Mountain and surrounded the mountain.
Now the foot of the mountain is burned to the point of being bare.
The ashes of plants and trees can obliterate the insteps of these Yuan troops.
"Captain, the Yuan army is coming up the mountain!"
On the mountain, a scout with a telescope hurriedly ran to Gao Tianzong and others.
You can see the movements of the Yuan army at the foot of the mountain with a telescope.
Gao Tianzong did not go to see it in person, but just looked at the leader Che Hongyu and other team members and said, "Everyone, how can we deal with it?"
Che Hongyu frowned and asked the scout: "Which direction did they climb the mountain?"
The scout replied, "I saw their army passing by the mountain, and I was afraid... I wanted to surround the mountain."
Che Hongyu pondered slightly, then looked at Gao Tianzong and others, "Dear leaders, there are tens of thousands of Yuan army, it is not easy for us to stick to it. I think the best strategy is to choose a direction to break through and then deal with them."
As he said that, he glanced at the old monk Huizhi and others, "Besides, we have to escort all the monks in the temple."
Hearing his words, Gao Tianzong nodded immediately, "I think the team leader of the car is saying it well."
Although they have six legions here at present, it is indeed unlikely that they will defend Yongquan Temple to the death with tens of thousands of troops.
After all, there were also thunderstorms in the Yuan army, and the number of grenade cannons and sky-storm cannons in their Fuzhou garrison troops was extremely small, far inferior to that of the imperial guards.
Furthermore, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers is also somewhat different from that of the imperial guards.
At present, the generals of the Fifth, Sixth, Eighth and Ninth Regiments of the Fuzhou Garrison Army nodded one after another.
Seeing the fire gradually faded, everyone began to gather the soldiers.
Gao Tianzong walked to the front of the old monk Huizhi and asked, "Master, can you ask if the salutes of the people in the temple have been sorted out?"
The old monk Huizhi said, "It has been sorted out."
Gao Tianzong said: "Then Master, call all the monks in the temple here, and we escort you to break out from the west side of Shanxi!"
