From March 30th to April 7th, for seven days, the Song army under Shao Hongyuan suffered serious losses and suffered great losses.

In the end, less than two thousand people fled back alive. More than half of the attacking troops either died in battle or surrendered. They failed to come back. Shao Hongyuan lost his troops but failed to achieve any results.

There is no doubt that he was defeated.

On the tenth day of April, Shao Hongyuan was stunned on the spot after learning the initial battle results.

He never expected his tactics to fail.

I never thought that the losses were so great and the losses were so miserable.

Less than one-fifth of the 100 combat teams came back in a hurry, most of which were missing the weight, lacking the arms and legs.

After returning, they kept crying that the thieves in the mountains were too fierce and equipped with very good equipment. The armor rate was higher than that of them, and the crossbow arrows were not fewer than them. They were like meeting a little ghost in hell.

Some rational officers reported to Shao Hongyuan that the peasant army used the Song army to set up ambush and ambush the Song army. In the end, the Song army soldiers heard the sound of the arrows, like the frightened bird, and did not dare to get close.

There were also peasant soldiers wearing Song army uniforms and approaching the Song army, and then attacking them while they were not careful, so they were defeated if they could not react.

So many small teams were completely wiped out by the peasant army because of this.

During the entire battle, they could not find the main force of the peasant army, and the peasant army could always find where they were.

After only seven days of battle, Shao Hongyuan lost completely.

After learning about his defeat, he sat on the chair, his face full of incredible and fear.

He was defeated, what would Zhang Jun think of him?

What would the emperor think of him?

Does his future still exist?

At this moment, as if he knew in advance that Qi Fang would definitely be defeated, Qi Fang was here again.

When Qi Fang heard that Shao Hongyuan was defeated again, he was very happy. Seeing the miserable and miserable appearance of Shao Hongyuan's troops, he originally planned to make fun of him, but the tragic defeat surprised him a little.

He suddenly realized that the peasant army in the mountains seemed a bit strong and abnormal.

Shao Hongyuan's troops are truly elites, and their foundation is the army that Li Xianzhong did not fall at a disadvantage in the fight against the Ming army. Although he was reorganized and personnel exchanged, he still maintained his original training level.

Now he has suffered such a defeat at the hands of a group of peasant thieves.

Is this still an ordinary peasant uprising army?

As a result, before Qi Fang could ask anything, Shao Hongyuan, who saw him coming, broke out.

"Is it you? Is it you!!!"

Shao Hongyuan's eyes turned red and his sword was drawn toward him, which made Qi Fang confused.

"What are you talking about?!"

Qi Fang was very angry.

"You sold your armor and crossbows to the thief army in the mountains, right? Otherwise, how could a group of thief army wear more armor than my army? I asked you not to give it, but I secretly sold it to the thief army, right? I want to report it to you! I want to let you die without a place to bury you!"

Shao Hongyuan, who was so angry that he was very irrational, and directly tore off his face with Qi Fang.

Qi Fang was furious.

"Don't slander loyalty! I never do such a thing as a enemy! If you want to sue, go and sue! But I also want to sue you! If you don't obey the orders, act without authorization, disobey my military orders and be defeated! I tell you, as the chief general, I can kill you now!!"

"You kill me!"

Shao Hongyuan threw the knife in his hand to the ground and looked at Qi Fang with anger on his face: "You just kill me, see what good ending will happen after you kill me!"

Qi Fang was so angry that one Buddha ascended to heaven and two Buddhas left their bodies, and could not say anything. In the end, he could only leave with regret and immediately wrote a memorial to impeach Shao Hongyuan.

It was said that Shao Hongyuan did not obey the orders, did not respect him as the chief general, and acted recklessly, contradicted his superiors, sent troops to fight without authorization, and lost more than 3,000 soldiers, and lost a lot.

Shao Hongyuan immediately began to write a memorial to impeach Qi Fang.

As for the content of his defeat...

He did not dare to write the actual content, so he could only conceal the actual loss rate, saying that he had lost less than a thousand soldiers and killed more than two thousand peasant troops, but failed to make the expected progress and needed more money, grain and troops from the court.

Then most of the content was harshly involved in Qi Fang's inaction.

They said they did not plan to fight at all, but they just consumed the court's money and food here, and even had the possibility of colluding with the rebellious thief army. Otherwise, the thief army would not have so many armors, and their posture was not much different from that of the regular army.

When the two were preparing to give each other eye drops or even to the Huangquan Road, Zhao Yucheng had no time to hold a celebration banquet, so he summoned all the front-line officers and instructors to meet at the location of the Daxiang Revival Association branch to hold a routine war summary with them.

This is an old habit of the Restoration Army. After each battle, the battle must be summarized. The summarized experience will be distributed to the combat units for collective study. If there is, it will be corrected. If there is no, it will be encouraged.

At the meeting, many front-line officers and instructors stood up and spoke, and published their battle proceeds and made them public.

Finally, everyone summarized some of the weaknesses and strengths of the Song army, as well as the peasant army's own weaknesses and strengths.

For example, the Song army was weak under the will to fight, and the strength was strong in military literacy and desire to survive.

The weak peasant army lies in its military literacy, and its strength lies in its fighting will and its courage and fearless spirit.

"I think we need to strengthen the training of the army and increase our practical experience. Otherwise, this situation will still happen. Although we have already pulled up the encirclement, we were killed by many Song army teams because of our lack of combat effectiveness."

Xu Tong stood up and spoke loudly, saying, "Our weapons and equipment are no less than those of the Song army, and everyone's food and treatment are good, so the training must be strengthened and we cannot be lucky. We must go out to fight the Song army in field, and we cannot always hide in the mountains."

Zhao Yucheng agrees with Xu Tong's words very much.

"I think Xu Tong's speech is very meaningful. This time Xu Tong also made great contributions. The Song army used arrows to connect with each other and cooperated with combat was discovered and reported by Xu Tong. Everyone should learn more from him."

After saying that, Zhao Yucheng took the lead in applauding him, and the rest of them also applauded together.

Xu Tong felt a little embarrassed and smirked and scratched his face.

After the applause subsided, Zhao Yucheng replied with a serious face.

"The places worthy of praise should be praised, and the places that need reflection cannot be denied. This is the reason why we can be strong and the reason why the Restoration Army can defeat the Jin army and establish the Ming Dynasty.

I think the Song army's attack and blockade on Luoxiaoshan will not stop, and they will continue to attack and block Luoxiaoshan. We are about to face a more severe situation, so we must hurry up and prepare."

Then, Zhao Yucheng began to assign new tasks.

First, the military training of the peasant army allows them to enter the professional group from their amateur level as soon as possible.

Second, they began to launch a spiritual offensive against the captives of the Song army and strive to absorb them into the peasant army. Their military literacy is still commendable.

The third is to try every means to increase the infiltration of the areas around Luoxiao Mountain, send excellent instructors into these areas, dig their corners behind the enemy, and win more support from farmers.

In short, time is too late, and the opportunity will never come again. If the Song army retreats, the Song army will make a comeback in the future, and the one who waits for everyone will die.

When Zhao Yucheng acted quickly, Qi Fang and Shao Hongyuan's impeachment memorials also quickly moved towards Lin'an. At the same time, the news that the Ming emperor Su Yonglin began to fight against corruption at home also spread to Lin'an.

It is said that when Emperor Ming Emperor Su Yonglin was inspecting Kaifeng, he found that someone had made fake accounts, so he conducted in-depth investigations and found that some officials were corrupt, which immediately set off an anti-corruption storm. Many corrupt officials were taken down and their ends were miserable.

It is said that some officials were killed by the Yellow River. After being killed, the bodies were pushed into the Yellow River and rolled into the sea along the Yellow River. It can be said that they were dead without a burial place.

The news was sent to Lin'an. Zhao Xing read it and felt a little relaxed.

As long as Su Yonglin went south not to prepare for a military attack on the Southern Song Dynasty.

Zhao Xing's plan to rebuild a 100,000 army is difficult to implement, and he lacks money in all kinds of ways. Now the completion progress is less than one-fifth, and it will probably take several years to complete it all.

In recent years, the Ming Dynasty was best to keep civil strife, and the Ming Emperor Su Yonglin was best to keep trying, exhausting Ming Dynasty and struggling to death. This is the best way.

In this way, the Southern Song Dynasty would get a chance to breathe.

However, when Zhao Xing learned that Su Yonglin had vigorously carried out anti-corruption, he felt a little envious.
