Chapter 95: Even the battle is successful

When talking about Luzhou, friends must think of Guojiao Wine. Yes, Guojiao Wine is indeed a specialty of Luzhou. Luzhou is also a historical ancient city and an important town in southern Sichuan. Luzhou is geographically located at the intersection of the Yangtze River and the Tuojiang River, an important tributary of the Yangtze River. Therefore, it is an important transportation hub in southern Sichuan and a must-fight for military strategists. It has always been paid attention to by military strategists.

During the National Protection War, General Cai E's Yunnan Army entered Sichuan. Zhu De, who was one of the four major kings under General Cai E's army, fought a battle at the Mianhuapo in Luzhou. Until now, Zhu De's residence and headquarters in Luzhou were still there at that time.

Luzhou was originally in the hands of the Song army. Since Zhang Jue drew his troops to Jiangnan, the troops in Sichuan were even more empty, and he gave Shusuhuli an opportunity to take advantage of it. He seized the fighter's attack on Luzhou. The Luzhou defenders resisted bravely, but it was too disparity in the army and could not be sustained. After weighing the positive and negative, Zhao An decisively ordered the abandonment of Luzhou and retreating to Chongqing. The purpose of this was only one: that is, to concentrate Sichuan's limited troops to defend Chongqing, an important portal, and gain enough time for Zhang Jue to return to Sichuan.

Everyone knows that in terms of military tactics, the more places you defend, the more scattered your troops will be. The fewer places you defend, the more concentrated your troops will be. The tactic of "using space for time" is also based on this. Zhao An's handling of this can be said to be very correct. He concentrated Sichuan's limited troops in Chongqing. Although Shusuhuli tried all his best, he did not take Chongqing, and bought enough time for Zhang Jue and his friends to return to Chongqing.

As soon as the reinforcements in Jiangnan arrived, the situation in Chongqing changed dramatically. Shu Suhuli, who was originally sure to win, was defeated in a blink of an eye. Less than 50,000 troops were able to escape from Chongqing, and the losses were extremely heavy. Such a heavy loss was the first time Sichuan had fallen into war. When I think of this, Shu Suhuli felt more depressed than eating dead flies.

Chongqing is the gateway to go up the river and enter Sichuan. With Chongqing, the reinforcements in Jiangnan also have a base to enter Sichuan. The reinforcements in Jiangnan and military supplies were transported to Chongqing continuously under the transport of Zheng Jinghe's fleet. With these troops, Zhang Jue actively prepared to pack up the Mongolian army in Sichuan.

According to the plan they had originally planned, they should first put huge pressure on the Mongolian army in Sichuan, and then attack Jianmen Pass, giving the Mongolians the illusion that they were preparing to annihilate the Mongolian army in Sichuan, in order to achieve the goal of transferring to Hanzhong and Guanzhong Mongolian army. There was not no one in the Mongolian army, and Kublai Khan himself was not unaware of the Song army's move. However, if they really wanted to fight according to Zhang Jue's plan, even if Guo Kan and the others saw through this condom, they had to go in. Because once Jianmen Pass was lost, the Mongolian army in Sichuan and even in Guizhou, Yunnan would be isolated, and Kublai Khan would have to save it.

To do this, it is necessary to put strong pressure on the Mongolian army in Sichuan. To put huge pressure on the Mongolian army, you can put pressure from four directions, east, west, south and north, capture Luzhou, and then go up the Yangtze River to Yibin westward and squeeze from the west. This is a very important move. It can also prevent the Mongolian army from escaping towards Dali and reduce the difficulties of entering Dali.

Dawn before dawn is the darkest moment of the day. There is no bright moon or stars in the sky, only endless darkness, as if darkness loves this earth and is reluctant to leave.

Dawn is the most peaceful time for people to sleep. The people of Luzhou are still sleeping. They never thought that history was about to change. They oppressed the Mongols and the miserable days of ravage were about to end, because the Song army had arrived in Luzhou.

On the waters of the Yangtze River, countless black shadows were moving on the river. It was the Southern Song naval fleet led by Zheng Jinghe, or a fleet full of attacks on the Luzhou army. In the current words, the Song army on the fleet was fully armed and ready to enter the battle at any time. With a command, they would immediately pounce on the tigers from the mountain pounce on the Mongolian army.

Zheng Jinghe, Liu Hezi and Zhang Jue discussed and decided to attack Luzhou in a different way than before, that is, to give up large-scale firepower preparations before launching the attack, and directly use landing operations to complete it.

There is a very great advantage in doing this, that is, it is to fully grasp the suddenness of the battle. Furthermore, there are not too many defenders here, and there is no need to use large-scale artillery preparations to pave the way, otherwise if the buildings in the city are destroyed, the losses will not be the property of the people?

If an attack is launched without fire preparation, there must be one condition, that is, the suddenness of the battle is required. If it is discovered by the Mongols, it will only be bombarded or attacked, and the losses will be greater. There is no difficulty in this. Because once Chongqing was taken down, Zhang Jue and others set off without stopping and directly launched troops in Luzhou.

Perhaps, the Mongolian army in Luzhou did not know the news that Shusuhuli was defeated in Chongqing. In the face of such a rapid offensive by the Song army, it might be too late to understand. It was precisely because of these favorable factors that Zhang Jue and the other three unanimously decided not to wait for the subsequent troops to arrive, and to use the vanguard to attack Luzhou, which led to the first large-scale landing operation in the history of the Song Dynasty and in the Chinese history.

Shipbuilding master Zhou Shan has designed a series of new warships. The strength of the Southern Song Navy doubled, and the delivery capacity was greater, and the mode of maritime combat would also change. Large-scale landing operations have become an important part of it. Therefore, Li Jun ordered the formation of the Marine Corps, which would have more diverse troops and greater troops to be sent in time. Because China has many mountains, rivers, landing operations have its own benefits.

Under Li Jun's promotion, the formation of the Marine Corps was quite smooth. Of course, the Marine Corps of the Southern Song Dynasty was incomparable to the current Marine Corps. The gap was mainly in the quality of equipment, as well as the technical and tactics and military theories that resulted. It is impossible to say that the technical content between the two was too far apart. In the Chongqing Battle, the Marine Corps had been put into use and launched an attack from the coast to provide strong support to Liu Hezi and Zhang Jue. When attacking Luzhou, they had to show their skills.

The fleet reached the intersection of the Yangtze River and Tuojiang River, divided into two, along the Yangtze River, and along the Tuojiang River, all the way north. According to the geographical location of Luzhou, Liu Hezi and the other two decided to launch an attack on Luzhou from two directions, which could end the battle faster.

The Mongolian military camp is not far from the Yangtze River, just on the edge of the Yangtze River. If you land, you can take it down with lightning speed. Liu Hezi and Zheng Jinghe stood on the deck, quietly looking at the Mongolian military camp, without saying a word for a long time.

Suddenly, the two of them looked at each other at the same time. Although they couldn't see the expression on each other's face in the darkness, both of them could clearly feel what the other person was thinking, that was: It was time, and the Mongolians should try our new tactics.

Since Li Jun came to this world, he has promoted the military changes of the Song army, and the Song army's tactics have emerged one after another, which has really caused the Mongolians to suffer a lot. This is an attack launched by the large-scale use of the Marine Corps. The Mongolians have not tasted the power of the army. After they taste it, they will definitely be miserable!

The Marine Corps belongs to the naval organization and is Zheng Jinghe's army. The command is of course his. Liu Hezi showed good cultivation. He stretched out his right hand and slapped Zheng Jinghe's shoulder, saying nothing. He meant: I'll leave it to you.

Zheng Jinghe smiled slightly, reached out and patted his shoulder, meaning: Just be optimistic.

With a command from Zheng Jinghe, the Marines who had been on standby jumped into the water, ran towards the shore with the river, and soon disappeared into the night.

In the Mongolian military camp, there was no one except the few soldiers on duty. This was the most sleepy season. The Mongolian army, who had not received the news of Chongqing's defeat, never dreamed that disaster would come from the sky.

A team of patrol soldiers lined up by the camp. At this moment, a group of black shadows suddenly jumped out of the darkness and rushed towards them. Look at the posture, black shadows were hungry tigers, while Mongolian soldiers were lambs to be slaughtered. Before they could react, they rushed to the shadows.

The shadow came too suddenly, and the Mongolian soldiers killed them without understanding what was going on. Of course, before they died, they felt the pain in their chests clearly. They were lucky to see the three-edged thorn dripping with blood shining with cold light through the faint light of the wind lamp. It was this sharp weapon they had never seen before that they had killed his life.

While the patrol soldiers were killed, the soldiers on duty standing at the gate of the military camp were also attacked. What killed them was not the terrible Triangle, but the crossbow arrow flying from the darkness, which hit them in front of them, and fell down without even humming. This was the crossbow arrow shot from the Song army's crossbow.

Countless black shadows seemed to fall from the sky, suddenly emerged from the darkness and rushed towards the Mongolian military camp.

When the morning light first came, the sun stole the laziness all night and came to work again, spreading his light to the world.

The people on the riverside were surprised to find that there were many warships moored on the Yangtze River, several of which were so large that they could not imagine. This was the largest ship of the Song army and an invincible warship. The ancients had never seen such a giant ship, so they were naturally so surprised that they almost dropped their chins.

The surprised people were very surprised to find a banner with the word "Song" floating on these ships. For these people who were under the power of the Mongols, it was difficult to believe that this was a warship in the court. They were as shocked as dumb geese, and they opened their mouths and couldn't speak.

After a long time, I don’t know who came first to understand and shouted: “The King is here! The King is here!” “The Chaoting is here! The Chaoting is here!”

"The King's Army is here!" "The court is back!" For the people, it is a great thing they are looking forward to day and night. For this day, they have endured for so many days and suffered a lot. Now, the Song army has finally fought back. For them, this is a huge joy, which is a hundred times happier than the New Year. They can't suppress the excitement in their hearts and started to cry.

The people on the riverside ran around and told each other that they would pass this good news to every Luzhou people to know.

Unfortunately, they had no chance to spread the good news of the day, because they were no longer needed to spread it. The good news of the court returning to Luzhou had spread throughout the streets and alleys of Luzhou. The people were yelling and gongs to welcome the arrival of the king, with endless joy on their faces.

For a moment, the whole of Luzhou was boiling, with the sound of gongs and drums everywhere, the sound of firecrackers everywhere, and the shouts of the people from the people everywhere, "The King is here!" "The court is back!"

Zhang Jue was wearing military uniforms, and came side by side with Liu Hezi and Zheng Jinghe. Seeing the people's emotions and excitement, she could no longer control herself. She bowed to the people and said with a sob: "Friends: Do you still recognize me? I am Zhang Jue! I'm back! I'm back!" Every word is out of sincerity, so contagious and tear-jerking.

Zhang Jue has been stationed in Sichuan for many years and is brave and good at fighting. He is loved by the military and civilians. He has long been a household name. When he appears, the people will not recognize him. Even if he doesn't say his name, the people will remember him.

"The general is back! The general is back!" The common people immediately recognized this famous general who had been living and dying for Sichuan's stability and had been dealing with the Mongols for so many years. They rushed up like a swarm, lifted him up and threw him into the air, and waited for him to fall before catching it. They used their throws to express their respect for such a "Chuan-centered General".

With the joy, Liu Hezi and Zheng Jinghe also threw the excited people into the air.

Amid the shouts of the people, Zhang Jue vaguely heard an old man's voice: "General, are you still leaving?" He asked very worriedly, as if he was afraid that the joy that had just arrived would be lost soon.

We can't blame the old man for worrying. It's because the old man has seen too many things in the world, especially the incompetence of the Southern Song Dynasty court, who lost many opportunities to restore the country and the mountains. Zhang Jue suddenly came back, which was really unbelievable to the old man.

"Uncle, please rest assured. The emperor has already increased a large number of troops in Sichuan, and we will never leave again! The court will protect you forever!" Zhang Jue also answered excitedly.

His words attracted cheers: "Oh! The court will not leave! Oh! The court will not leave!"

Cheers went straight up into the clouds and floated in the endless sky.

Zhongxiang, Hubei, was called Yingzhou in the Song Dynasty, and was an important town on the Jianghan Plain. Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty became famous here. After becoming emperor, he used the meaning of "auspicious and auspicious bell gatherings" and was called Zhongxiang.

Yingzhou is an ancient historical city, and the capital of Chu State, the "Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period" is Ying. The hometown of the famous poet Song Yu is here. Speaking of Song Yu, there may not be many people who know it. If you say a few words, friends will know it. For example, the word "Dengtuzi" has a lot to do with him. Friends must be familiar with the famous line "Dengtuzi's Lustful Fu" " "Add a minute is too long, and a minute is too short; if you put on pink, it is too white, and if you put on red, it is too red. The eyebrows are like green feathers, the muscles are like white snow, the waist is like buns, and the teeth are like shells. A smile makes people confused Yangcheng and fascinate Cai."

There is also a singing and dancing master Mo Chounu who is as famous as him, and his hometown is also in Zhongxiang.

Yingzhou was built on the shore of the Han River and was an important strategic throat for defending the Han River. After the Mongols captured Xiangyang, they once attacked Yingzhou fiercely, hoping to capture Yingzhou and then follow the Han River and enter the Yangtze River. At that time, the famous generals of the Southern Song Dynasty were guarding Yingzhou. Zhang Shijie, who is now attacking the Mongolian army in Huaixi, is a famous general of Zhang Shijie, who is a generation of famous generals, who can attack and defend, and manage Yingzhou like an iron barrel, and the Mongols cannot pass it.

In order to enter the Yangtze River, Boyan was heartbroken and had no choice but to offer a reward for a plan. A Confucian scholar named Fan offered him a plan and asked him to bypass Yingzhou. Boyan ordered the chopping of bamboo and spread it on the ground, dragging the boat over the bamboo, and then bypassed Yingzhou, entered the Yangtze River from the Han River, and headed down the river to Lin'an.

Lin'an was in a hurry, and Zhang Shijie rushed to Jiangnan to preside over the Jiangnan war. Yingzhou betrayed Xia Gui and fell into the hands of the Mongolians.

Capturing Yingzhou and regaining the rich Jianghan Plain was a step in Li Jun's plan, and this matter was left to the veteran Gundam.

At this time, Gundam was not a veteran, just a hot-blooded young man. Needless to say, Longma's spirit was so excited that the heat on his forehead could steam eggs. He held the sword high in his right hand and shouted: "Boys: rush for me! Rush into the city and kill all the Tartars for me! No one left!"

After the call, he took a big step and rushed to the front. He was an impatient person. If someone didn't do it well, that would be fine. If he didn't rush to the front, could he still fall behind?

The Song army, who was in sight, was also excited when he encouraged Gao Da. He waved the sword in his hand and rushed into the city like a wind. The sword in his hand slashed at the Mongolians, regardless of whether the Mongolians were dead or living, disabled or intact, as long as they were Mongolians, I would give you a knife.

Didn’t Gundam say that if you want to kill all of them, no one will be left, and the soldiers will naturally respond to Gundam’s call and no one will be left.

The Mongolian army killed too much, and the hatred in the Song army was also very heavy. Even if Gundam did not call on him, the soldiers would kill each other. After a big battle, less than twenty Mongolian troops stationed in Yingzhou were left.

One of the twenty people was the Yingzhou garrison. He was "rescued" by Gundam from the knife. Looking at the Song army rushing in like a tide, the guard knew that the situation was hopeless. He knew that the Song army was now red and he had no choice but to surrender, so he had to settle it himself. As soon as he put the scimitar on his neck, he hit Gao Da with a musket on his arm, and the scimitar naturally fell to the ground. Gundam strode up, picked him up like a chicken, and cursed: "You damn stinky Tartar, I have not peeled you yet, I want to die, there is no way!" The lucky guard had to wait tremblingly to peel Gundam.

Looking at the Invincible Battleship moored on the water and looking at the gap in the city wall, Gundam became excited again and made an action that no one could have imagined, which was to give the Invincible Battleship a kiss, stroked his white beard and laughed, saying, "Haha! Invincible Battleship is good, one blow and one missing!" He turned around suddenly, and looked towards Ezhou, with a shiny look in his eyes, saying, "Ashu, you Tartar, you hiding in Ezhou, you think I can't do anything to you? I will let you taste the power of Invincible Battleship!"
