Chapter 204 Mutual Non-aggression Agreement

This small-scale tent pierces into the heart of Xiangyang like a needle. As long as the defenders in the city want to move, they will be stabbed by this pointed needle and blood flowing all over the ground.

This place has become the garrison of the Mongolian army, and many barracks have been built here, the tallest and largest one is the residence of the commander Zhang Hongfan, which is also the command center of the Mongolian army.

Standing at the highest point of this house, with a broad vision and a clear view of the entire battlefield, he was here to command the mobilization of various armies.

Suddenly, a loud bang came, like a bolt from the blue. In an instant, Zhang Hongfan felt a shaking wave, cracks appeared on the roof, and sand kept falling down.

Then another sound came, and a beam fell down. His personal soldiers reacted quickly and quickly pushed him away.

Zhang Hongfan felt sweaty when he realized that he immediately understood what was going on. The artillery of the southerners could hit three miles.

He saw that the entire scene was in chaos, and the soldiers were scrambling like headless flies.

The shells had never stopped. His camp was targeted. After running out, he looked back and saw that the entire roof collapsed.

The sergeants in the yard were originally resting and recuperating, while Mongolia sieges carried out wheel battles, one team of sieges and the other team of resting and recuperating. At this moment, they obviously couldn't sleep anymore.

Zhang Hongfan immediately ordered his generals to maintain order and made a decisive decision to move away valuables such as weapons and flammable objects. A team of commanders immediately scattered.

Not to mention that the Mongolian army was well-trained, it quickly restored order and began an orderly evacuation.

Song Chen took out his monocular lens, and under the bright moonlight and the fire of the scene, he saw all this clearly. Unexpectedly, the Mongolian army would restore order in no time.

I can't help but admire the guy who leads the lead, Zhang Hongfan, the guy who carved "Zhang Hongfan destroys Song Yu" on Yashan, an adult full of childlike charm, who is really a powerful man.

When he understood that the tent was within the range of the Song Dynasty artillery, he decisively ordered the withdrawal. Song Chen originally thought that if the Mongols were panicked, he would send some people to get the bargain, but it seemed that it would not work.

There are now three heavy artillery with 20 caliber. Song Chen has no worries and is all placed in Xiangyang because there is a nail here. These three artillery can be more effective when put here.

In any case, the nail in the quid was basically pulled out.

………………………………………

It was the middle of winter, but the people in the room were shirtless, and the stone bucket was filled with molten iron, poured into the mold, and the whole process was orderly.

There are six production lines like this now.

It was divided into two shifts a day, and the production had never stopped. A qualified artillery could be released in half a month. Tian Xiaobao inspected various production lines and recorded the problems he encountered. He was quite talented in organization and doubled his production capacity in a short time. Now he can produce twelve artillery a month.

The boss said that with thirty cannons, it can protect Xiangfan Wuyu. Tian Xiaobao admired Song Chen very much, so he quickly found a way to organize large-scale production, and each additional cannon would have a point of hope of victory.

The production here has never stopped, the production line has expanded, and the number of participants has inevitably increased, which is also impossible.

There are now 243 people born, and there is one person here. No one would think that he is a meticulous work. This person is too inconspicuous, has neither good popularity nor bad, and has ordinary skills, giving people the feeling that he is honest.

Everything here is top secret. The master craftsman Tian Xiaobao has told them countless times.

But this person seemed to have no idea, and he made records of the monthly output, its production model and production process.

The record was quickly sent to Zhang Hongfan and A Shu's "desk". Two commanders who were not convinced by each other sat together to discuss the war.

The two were arguing whether to continue fighting. A Shu said that if all the military power was used on Fancheng, now maybe everyone would sit in Fancheng to discuss the war situation, rather than discussing these things in this wet and smelly place.

Zhang Hongfan said that one hundred people beat one person, and one thousand people fight, and one person hurts one person, and four hundred thousand people attack a city, that is a waste of military power.

Regarding whether to continue to attack Xiangfan, the two of them did not agree. A Shu advocated continuing to attack, because they both invested so much manpower and material resources and did not see any results. Can the Khan (the emperor) get the bad handover?

Zhang Hongfan felt that the army should be resigned. He said that he did not get the exact information. Now the Song people can build six artillery pieces in half a month, and the defenders of the two cities have also doubled. Under the threat of so many artillery, they should avoid the enemy's edge, otherwise the losses will be greater.

A Shu had a big quarrel. They spent so much food to transport troops. Could it be that they would have to go back so soon? That was really a big joke.

How to fight?

A Shu, who was still aggressive just now, was directly asked by this question. In fact, he could understand the power of the Song people's new firearms better than Zhang Hongfan. As long as there are enough firearms in Xiangfan, they will not be able to defeat these two cities.

The two of them fought over and over again, and it seemed that they could only withdraw their troops. Of course, neither of them dared to make this decision alone, but wrote a memorandum of each other, which was sent to Dadu for 800 miles.

Four days later, they received the order to withdraw their troops. When they saw the mighty Mongolian army heading north, there was no Mongolian soldier outside the city, and the encirclement of Xiangfan was completely lifted.

The people from the two cities cheered loudly. After five years of surrounding the city, they were finally able to go home!

………………………………………

The court received a secret report from Xiangfan's rescue and celebrated the court. Most of the court officials had smiles on their faces. In the war with the Mongols, they might have forgotten how the word "Victory" was written.

"Everyone, what should we do next?" Emperor Zhao Hu sat on the dragon throne. For the first time, he did not think about resigning from the court. Instead, he asked a question that everyone was very concerned about, what should the Song Dynasty do next.

Most of the court officials supported the cession and peace talks, while a small number supported the other, that is, to maintain a state of discord and not fighting, and no one was the main war.

This is also expected. The myth of the Mongols' undefeated has been maintained for half a century. Now no minister believes that he can confront Mongolia head-on, fight the Yangtze River, and regain his hometown.

If Song Chen was here, he would not denounce the people who were in peace. Although he was by no means a peace faction, he would still support him if he signed a three-year "Non-aggression Agreement" with Mongolia.
