Chapter 1386
1062. Xiangyang Army
"Since that's the case, let's take the leave first."
Qi Hongda stared at Zhao Dongting for a few more glances, and finally felt relieved, bowed and then left the imperial study room.
He hurried over to see Zhao Dongting after receiving a message from Kublai Khan. What he wanted was Zhao Dongting's promise.
Kublai Khan naturally felt lucky.
He also didn't want to continue fighting with the Song army on the frontier.
He was unable to do so when Qi Hongda came to see Zhao Dongting. He hoped that with hundreds of thousands of yuan in the northern border of Song Dynasty, the soldiers of the dynasty would put some pressure on Zhao Dongting.
It is of course the best thing that Xiangyang can do to rescue the situation like this.
When both sides really started a war under Xiangyang City, Kublai Khan was not sure that he could defend Xiangyang City. And he had just issued the order to transfer troops from other roads, so he was afraid that he would not be able to catch up.
And then, Xiangyang will be really taken down by the Song Dynasty. Will Kublai Khan really have the courage to let the soldiers on the frontier continue to fight with the Song army?
I'm afraid that even Kublai Khan himself has no answer to this.
The hundreds of thousands of troops on his frontier may not be an opponent of the Song army. Not to mention defeat, he is afraid that at most it will be a stalemate with the Song army.
Qi Hongda walked out of the imperial study room.
He looked up at the quite dazzling sun, and his eyes were squinted immediately after being stabbed. He seemed to breathe a sigh of relief at this moment.
No matter what, he has completed the task assigned to him by the emperor.
Emperor Song said that he would retreat immediately after the two armies merged.
Xiangyang Prefecture was able to survive.
After all, Zhao Dongting is the emperor. Qi Hongda thinks that no matter how thick-skinned Zhao Dongting is, he should not even be talking nonsense like this.
After a few seconds of slight silence, Qi Hongda hurriedly walked out of the palace.
After returning to his mansion, he hurriedly picked up his pen and wrote a text message, and then passed it to Yuanzhongdu as a carrier pigeon.
He was very anxious about this matter before because he understood that the emperor was also extremely anxious.
What Qi Hongda probably unexpectedly was that at the border of the southwest road in Beijing, Guan Qiluo and the soldiers led by Lu Wenhuan's old subordinates had already met Xiao Yulin and Liu Zijun.
It was only a few days before they set out from Jiangling Prefecture. Even the Iron Cavalry had only arrived in the southwest Jing Road in just a few days.
The two armies gathered on the official road, and the surrounding mountains stretched.
This is probably just a few dozen miles from Jinghu North Road to Xijing Southwest Road.
The two armies have long since found scouts of each other's whereabouts.
Guan Qiluo led his soldiers to collide with Xiao Yulin and others on the official road, and both armies stopped.
Guan Qiluo, Xiao Yulin and others were in front of the army, and there were more than ten meters away. Guan Qiluo shouted to Xiao Yulin: "Captain Xiao, why did Commander Liu lead the army?"
Although he was the commander of the garrison army of Jiangling Prefecture, he had also heard of Xiao Yulin and Liu Zijun's titles. He was also a little impressed by these veterans of the imperial guards.
Xiao Yulin stepped forward and bowed to Guan Qiluo: "Captain Guan!"
Both of them can know which army the other party comes from based on their banner, and naturally they will know who is the commander.
Guan Qiluo saw Xiao Yulin step forward a little, so he simply came to Xiao Yulin.
Then they could only whisper.
I don’t know what the two said. After just a moment, Xiao Yulin suddenly turned his horse and shouted at the army behind: “The army’s rear army will be the front army and return to Jiangling Mansion!”
The flags in the army are shaking.
The cavalry who followed him and Liu Zijun rushed over all turned their horses and suddenly turned back towards Jiangling Mansion in the yellow dust.
At this time, the infantry army led by Yu Xingwen had not arrived at the territory of Jingxi South Road. They were still wading through mountains and rivers within Jinghu North Road.
The imperial guards of the Song Dynasty were as Zhao Dongting promised Qi Hongda, and they just joined the garrison troops of Guan Qiluo's Jiangling Prefecture and retreated back.
This alone, of course, could not be the order issued by Zhao Dongting suddenly.
He had just finished talking to Qi Hongda in the palace. Even if he gave an order, he would not have been sent to Xiao Yulin's army in such a short time. It would be almost the same unless he made a phone call.
Two horses were walking leisurely among the army.
Guan Qiluo and Xiao Yulin walked side by side.
Liu Zijun was originally in charge of the rear army, but at this time he led the way in front of the army.
After hesitating for a few years, Guan Qiluo finally asked Xiao Yulin: "Captain Xiao really has such confidence in the special soldiers under his command? There are still many defenders in Xiangyang City."
Xiao Yulin chuckled, "If my Dragon Spear Group and the lion group under Commander Liu are so useless, it would be a waste of our efforts to train them."
He had a lot of confidence on his face and eyes.
Guan Qiluo was still a little hesitant, "But according to my observation, there are probably more than 10,000 Yuan troops in Xiangyang Prefecture. Is this too risky?"
There was a reconnaissance group in his Jiangling Prefecture garrison, which was also trained as a special army. In the past, many soldiers of the reconnaissance group were directly selected to serve in the special army of the Song Dynasty after assessment. But he thought about it, even if there were two reconnaissance groups under his command, it would be unlikely to take down Xiangyang Prefecture.
Xiangyang Prefecture is a very dangerous city.
This city is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it is much stronger than Jiangling Mansion.
Otherwise, Lu Wenhuan could not have been able to rely on Xiangyang Prefecture to be the Yuan army for several years.
Xiao Yulin still chuckled when he heard this and said, "Don't worry, Commander Guan, take Xiangyang Mansion, there are male lions and two dragon spears."
He smiled at this moment, he looked like a handsome young man.
Not to mention anything else, but in terms of appearance, Xiao Yulin is actually a very handsome young man.
Unfortunately, Le Wu's heart is tied to Zhao Dongting's identity.
This can only be said to be fate.
Seeing that Xiao Yulin was so confident, Guan Qiluo no longer dissuaded him, and frowned slightly and said, "But now General Lu Wenhuan's adopted son, General Lu Yuwen, is still in the city."
Xiao Yulin was slightly stunned and hurriedly asked Guan Qiluo what was going on.
When he was in Jiangling Prefecture, he also heard Su Quandang and others say that Lu Yuwen was mentioned.
He naturally didn't know that Lu Yuwen was willing to go to the city to exchange for family members and leave the city.
Guan Qiluo immediately told Xiao Yulin the whole story.
After hearing this, Xiao Yulin thoughtfully said, "Since Hong Hanmo promised to let General Lu Yuwen go out of the city after your army leaves Southwest Road, he shouldn't go back on his word, right?"
Guan Qi seemed a little worried, "I'm afraid that the news that you came will stimulate him. At that time, I want to keep General Lu Yuwen in the city and continue to be a qualifying person."
"He dares!"
Xiao Yulin narrowed his eyes slightly, but suddenly laughed, "If Hong Hanmo dared to do this, wouldn't he give us a chance to attack Xiangyang Prefecture? We are more troublesome and we don't have to spend so much time on Zhou Zhang."
Guan Qiluo nodded, "That's what you said, but General Lu Yuwen is righteous, we can't ignore his life and death."
"Kobayashi."
When Xiao Yulin heard this, he suddenly turned his head and looked at the guard not far away, saying, "You lead a few brothers to go..."
As he was talking, his voice stopped again.
His eyes fell back to Guan Qiluo and said, "Captain Guan, you have just returned from Xiangyang Prefecture. Let your soldiers do this better. I sent a few people to go outside Xiangyang Prefecture and let the Honghanmo release General Lu Yuwen. If the fast horses do not stop, they will always dare to arrive at Xiangyang Prefecture before the two regiments of lions and dragon spears."
Guan Qi was slightly stunned, "Captain Xiao, are you really confident before this, the guards in Xiangyang Prefecture could not find the whereabouts of the two regiments of the lion and the dragon spear?"
Xiao Yulin chuckled and said, "If it is so easy for them to discover, it is not worthy of being called the special forces in the imperial guards."
Guan Qiluo turned his head and summoned two personal guards, and told them to take more than ten people to Xiangyang Prefecture.
Now he has no other way.
It is impossible to change the entire strategic policy of taking Xiangyang Prefecture because of Lu Yuwen.
Guan Qi can clearly distinguish which one is more important.
Although this seems a bit ruthless, it is also a helpless fact. Lu Yuwen has weight and cannot match the importance of Xiangyang Prefecture to the Song Dynasty.
After pondering for a little while, Guan Qiluo suddenly sent a message to invite Chen Yidao, who was accompanying the army behind.
Since he fought with Huang Liangce outside Jiangling Mansion last time and killed Huang Liangce with earth-shaking formations, Chen Yidao has become a celebrity in the entire Jiangling Mansion.
Not to mention Guan Qiluo, even the soldiers of the Jiangling Prefecture garrison under Guan Qiluo's command, probably no one who doesn't know Chen Yidao now.
His burly figure as a demon and his huge blood sword were so representative.
"What's the matter for Commander Guan?"
Chen Yidao, who had just been brought to Guan Qiluo, asked directly. There was no expression on his face, and his voice was like a loud sound.
He probably got used to this expression.
And behind him, more than ten masters of the Knife Tomb also had this expression.
