Chapter 1308 War is spreading across the northern border (2)(1/2)
Zhen Jin sat upright in the main seat, buried her head in correcting documents for a while, and saw that no one spoke in the tent, he asked.
When he looked up, the general's eyes naturally gathered on him.
Zhen Jin has been involved in the government for several years, and has a considerable prestige in both the Yuan Dynasty and the army.
Although the generals looked up at him, no one spoke after a while.
Longxing Mansion is very cautious, and they obviously have no idea at the moment.
It was not until the real gold face showed a little impatience that a general said, "Your Highness, the last general thought that Longxing Mansion could only take advantage of it, not forcefully."
Zhen Jin frowned slightly and put down his pen and said, "I know this. The Song army is very strict in the city. What I want to ask you is, is there any tricks to learn?"
The generals were silent again.
Zhen Jin was helpless, so he caressed his forehead and lowered his head.
He never thought that the Song army was already on the verge of destruction, but would rise again in just a few years. Moreover, with his Yuan Dynasty, the troops of the whole country were unable to break through the borders of the Song Dynasty.
But at this moment, Zhen Jin lowered his head but did not think about how to take Longxing Mansion in a clever way, but his thoughts were a little distant.
He thought of his extremely beloved daughter Turandot.
Since Huang Liangce exchanged Li Xiushu for his daughter in Fujian, he has no longer been as cheerful as before, and has only become a different person.
When in the palace, Zhen Jin often visited Turando. But most of the time, he only saw Turando in a daze.
He asked Tulando what he had encountered in Song State, but Tulando never said it.
Zhen Jin only vaguely felt that this matter must have something to do with Emperor Zhao Xing of Song.
At this moment, he only murmured in his heart, "Zhao Jing, what kind of person are you..."
Originally, Zhao Dongting's age should never be taken seriously by them. Only now, no one dared to underestimate the little emperor from Kublai Khan to the ministers of the Yuan Dynasty.
"Chief Coach!"
After a while, a general finally spoke in the tent.
The general sat in the upper left position of Zhenjin and bowed his hand to Zhenjin and said to Zhenjin: "The last general thought that we can gather the masters in the army and break the city at night."
Zhen Jin came to his senses and said, "Let me explain in detail!"
The general continued: "All the masters of Shangyuan Realm have the strength to go to the waves. If we send our troops to break the city at night, we should be able to put down the Song army suspension bridge and use the sky-blasting thunder to open the city gates of Longxing Prefecture."
Zhen Jin frowned slightly, "What if I blasted it away?"
This general said: "If the city gate is broken, the Song army will inevitably be in panic. Our army will take advantage of the situation to attack the city. In this way, Longxing Prefecture will be broken."
True gold pondered for a while.
Then he whispered: "But if our army fails to break through Longxing Prefecture and launches a large-scale attack on the city, it will inevitably suffer heavy losses..."
The general said: "The commander, there is a saying among the Han people that seeks wealth and honor in danger. The last general thought that this marching and war are the same. Siege is a risky thing, right?"
Real gold began to ponder again.
He had to admit that what the general said made some sense.
At present, he has not lost the troops of Longxing Mansion. If he wants to break the city, it is impossible not to take risks.
Late that night, more than twenty masters finally came out of the Yuan army camp.
They approached Longxing Mansion in the night at an extremely fast speed.
But what these masters in the Yuan army did not expect was that when they arrived outside the northern gate of Longxing Prefecture, they saw that there were torches outside the northern gate of Longxing Prefecture.
Although counting carefully, there are only dozens of torches, this is enough to show that the Song army has already taken precautions for them to attack the city.
Under such circumstances, as long as they rushed over, they would attract the attention of the Song army. At that time, it would be hard to say whether they could break the city.
The Song army's grenade launchers, thunder and other things cannot be underestimated, as they can take their lives.
After a while, these masters finally had no intention of forcibly breaking the city gate, and quietly retreated to the military camp.
Back to the barracks.
The real gold was still in the handsome tent and did not sleep, and there were still many generals in the tent.
They were all waiting for news, because as long as these masters broke through the city gate, they would immediately lead their troops to attack the city.
"Why are you back?"
Seeing these military masters suddenly walking into the tent, Zhen Jin and the generals were naturally surprised.
A master bowed and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, there are Song troops guarding it outside the north gate of Longxing Prefecture. We dare not alert the enemy."
"this……"
Zhen Jin was a little confused.
Then he sighed, "These Song soldiers probably thought that we would use this method to attack the city."
Then his eyes swept over the generals and said, "You can think of other ways!"
All the generals frowned and remained silent for a long time.
The Song army defended so hard that it did make them feel a little headache.
If you fail to attack, you can do nothing.
That night, the Yuan army no longer had any movement.
Let’s talk about Ezhou.
The situation is similar to that of Longxing Mansion.
Just because the landforms outside the two cities are similar, the number of Yuan troops they face is also different.
Although there were only three armies of Tianying, Tianman and Tianfu in Ezhou City, the Yuan army returned in vain after a tentative attack and could only camp outside the city.
They didn't even want to send masters to break the city gate at night. Because the two sides have assassinated each other many times so I think they are prepared.
Therefore, the city of Ezhou is also quite quiet.
However, Jiangling Prefecture, west of Ezhou City, is not peaceful.
Since the Yuan army retreated into the camp in the afternoon when it was unfavorable to attack the city, Yelu Zhu decided to make Lu Wenhuan pretend to surrender to Song.
Lu Wenhuan returned to his military tent and was in a state of dismay.
He had no reason not to feel heartbroken.
When he first joined the Yuan Dynasty, he was completely disappointed with the Song Dynasty court. In fact, over the years, he wanted to assist Kublai Khan in achieving great achievements.
But just because of his Changlin's defeat, Kublai Khan sent Yelu Zhu to supervise the army, which was equivalent to taking away Lu Wenhuan's military power.
This undoubtedly made Lu Wenhuan feel like he was unfulfilled but also weak.
After all, he is a Song Dynasty person...
Unless the State of Song completely destroyed the country, Kublai Khan would not be able to trust him completely.
But now, the State of Song is thriving.
Lu Wenhuan sat in the tent, his thoughts were chaotic, and his eyes were constantly changing.
Pretending to vote for Song...
What if he really joins Song?
What will happen to him, Lv Wenhuan?
What will happen to the soldiers who follow him to join the army?
If I surrendered for my reputation and merits in the State of Song, I think I would be accepted. Only those soldiers who were left in the Yuan camp and their relatives...
Furthermore, although Kublai Khan is guarding himself, it can also be said to be a human nature. Moreover, over the years, Kublai Khan has really enjoyed himself very much.
Deep inside Lu Wenhuan, he was constantly struggling and entangled.
At that time, the Yuan Dynasty was for disloyalty. Now if you vote for Song again...
He suddenly remembered himself in his mind.
The unparalleled brave general Lu Bu during the Three Kingdoms period.
If I join Song again, wouldn’t I have become a slave of the three surnames like Lu Bu?
Just a second thought, Lu Wenhuan suddenly remembered the scene of guarding Xiangyang.
At that time, the military and civilians in the city were united. Although they faced the Yuan army and conquered, those days were the most unsatisfactory ones.
He still remembered the eager and hopeful look when the people in the city looked at him at that time.
It was precisely because of this that he chose to surrender when the city was broken and did not continue to fight against the Yuan army.
This saved the people in Xiangyang City from poisoning.
He knew that since then, many people have angrily called him Lu Wenhuan unfaithful, but he did not regret it. Protecting many people in the city is more important than anything else.
In his heart, no matter how honor and disgrace, or whether loyalty or righteousness is, it is not as important as those people in Xiangyang City who support him.
Afterwards, he led his army to attack Song with Boyan, Ali Hague and others, and never did anything to slaughter the people of the Song Dynasty. Deep in his heart, he still felt that he was a Song Dynasty person.
To be continued...
