If a country is successful

The waves washed away all the heroes. The battle in Guangxi has already caused Ge Xiuhong and others to come to serve the king. Most of the rebel generals were killed in the battle, leaving only the commander commander of the Tianman Army and the commander commander of the Tianfu Army Jin Hao.

In addition, the commander of the Leizhou Army, Liu Hongyi, was seriously injured. His entire right arm was cut down with a large knife.

The heads and commanders of various divisions and regiments suffered a lot of losses.

This battle was too tough and too tragic. Although the Southern Song Dynasty won, it could only be considered a tragic victory.

Tohoer and Wang Lei chose to fight to the death, which was beyond Zhao Dongting and others' expectations, and they were not fully prepared.

After Zhang Jue reported the war damage from all the troops, he led his army slowly back to Xiujiang Town for dozens of minutes.

At this time, naturally, I no longer care about dealing with the corpses and weapons on the ground.

After Zhao Dongting returned to the town, he did not sleep and was always waiting in the main hall of the government office.

Before Zhang Jue could lead his army back to Xiujiang, he first waited for the express delivery of the horse that came from Leizhou.

The fast horses were several knights, and the guards led them to the main hall of the government office to meet Zhao Dongting.

They brought secret letters from Leizhou.

After reading the letter, Zhao Dongting looked a little surprised, but also a little fun.

The letter was written by the deputy military Jiling himself. The letter actually stated that Dali sent 50,000 troops and had arrived in Hengshanzhai on Guangnan West Road.

Hengshanzhai is located at the westmost side of Guangnan West Road, and the distance to Shanchan Prefecture, Dali Military City, is about the same as that to Leizhou.

In other words, the Dali army should have only been sent to Dali for only a month.

And just a few months ago, what was the battle situation in Guangxi?

Zhao Dongting remembered that they had just set up soldiers and each army established a guerrilla formation.

If nothing unexpected happens, the king of Dali Duan Xingzhi decided to send troops after learning that the Song army officer Dao won. From this perspective, he should indeed plan to help the Song army.

However, now that the Song army has laid a victory in Guangxi, the situation is subtle, will he change his mind?

As the emperor, Zhao Dongting had to think about this.

At present, the Song army is stationed in Xiujiang Town, Leizhou is empty, and Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng are not far away. Will Duan Xingzhi change his mind?

Undoubtedly, these Dali troops could help the Song Dynasty to block Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng. However, they might also help Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng destroy the Song Dynasty.

With the current military strength of the Song Dynasty, it had just experienced Mi war. Even if there were firearms, it was almost impossible to block the Yuan Dynasty and Dali coalition forces.

"Damn it."

Zhao Dongting murmured softly, "If Duan Xingzhi knew about this war, wouldn't he take advantage of the situation, right?"

"You go down and rest first!"

He waved away the message sender who had kneeled in front of him and immediately shouted to the outside of the hall: "Go to see Mr. Xuan Qin."

Qin Han came up with the idea of ​​letting someone join forces with Dali. At this time, Zhao Dongting naturally wanted to hear his opinions.

Soon, Qin Han rushed to the hall and bowed to Zhao Dongting, "Emperor."

Zhao Dongting handed him the letter in his hand and said, "What do you think about this?"

Qin Han read the letter, but said, "Emperor, Dali sends troops to provide assistance. Isn't this what you hope for?"

"Oh."

Zhao Dongting chuckled, "If the situation in Guangxi is still uncertain, I certainly hope that they can send troops to provide assistance. But now Boyan and Yesuer only have tens of thousands of troops left in Wuzhou, and they are powerless. What else do I want them to do?"

Qin Han said: "But there is in Leizhou..."

Zhao Dongting said: "I would rather lead my army back to Leizhou than they would go to Leizhou. Have you ever thought about it? If they took advantage of the situation to rob?"

Qin Han pondered and said for a long time: "What the emperor meant is to let them go back? Will Duan Xingzhi feel that we are teasing him?"

"Teaching?"

Zhao Dongting's face was a little cold, "He was unable to make up his mind and was reluctant to send troops. How could he say that I was teasing him?"

Qin Han nodded, "Then the emperor announced that I would come, is it that I will go to the Dali army and ask them to withdraw their troops?"

Zhao Dongting said, "The person was invited by the Zongheng family of your Guigu Academy. Now that I want to send him, of course you have to send him. If I send the ministers in the court, I am afraid it will be easier to invite the gods and it will be difficult to send him! Our army is definitely victorious here, but its military strength is far less than before. As long as Duan Xingzhi is not a fool, he will probably have the intention to take advantage of the situation. At that time, whether he occupy Leizhou, or joins forces with Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng to attack me, the Song Dynasty will be at risk of destruction."

Qin Han nodded in contemplation.

Perhaps no one would have thought that the war would develop to this current situation.

If Dali had sent troops to aid earlier, the battle in Guangxi might have ended long ago, and Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng would not have led their troops to invade Leizhou.

Besides, if Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng did not lead troops to invade Leizhou, Zhao Dongting would not have fought so eagerly with Boyan and Yesuer.

Various unexpected factors made this Dali Yuan army extremely important.

Although they only had 50,000 soldiers, they could win the battle wherever they turned.

However, Zhao Dongting couldn't believe Duan Zhixing. Instead of taking risks, it would be better to let them go back.

It was difficult to defeat Boyan and Yesuer, but he didn't want to capsize in the gutter.

On this day, more than ten Wuding Hall masters, led by Huang Liujia, escorted Qin Han to Yongzhou.

Yongzhou is located between Hengshanzhai and Leizhou. As the speed of the Dali army marching, they should be able to meet the Dali army there.

Soon, Zhang Jue led the generals to the main hall of the government office.

All of them were covered in blood, and some of their faces had become lumps.

Zhao Dongting stopped them from saluting, and said first: "How are our army's casualties?"

Zhang Jue looked a little ashamed, "Report to the emperor, our army...were nearly 50,000 killed in battle."

Zhao Dongting was silent.

It was beyond his expectations that he had suffered such a huge loss by using nearly 100,000 troops to deal with the Yuan army of about 120,000 troops.

In his mind, he originally estimated that the loss would be about 30,000 to 40,000.

Unexpectedly, the Yuan army would fight to the death, which ultimately made them a little hasty and inadequately prepared.

Moreover, after it rained, the hot air balloon could no longer fight, so the Flying Army returned to Xiujiang. This also gave the Yuan army a chance to breathe.

At night, you can't even see it in a rainy night, which undoubtedly greatly reduces the role that the Shenlong Gun soldiers can play.

Grenade launchers and thunderbolts were not very useful.

The various factors combined have caused the Song army to suffer so much damage than expected.
