    As the saying goes, the warm breeze makes tourists drunk, and they call Hangzhou Bianzhou.  Hangzhou was not the capital of the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty. The capital of the Southern Song Dynasty was Lin'an, and Lin'an was less than a hundred miles away from Hangzhou.  Starting from Dinghai, heading west along Hangzhou Bay and upstream from the estuary of Qiantang River, it takes a total of about two hundred miles of waterway to reach Hangzhou.  During the Song Dynasty, although the imperial court basically had no success in fighting against the nomadic peoples in the north, the economic and cultural development of the Song Dynasty was quite good, and its influence in overseas affairs far exceeded that of the Tang Dynasty.  This is why the natives such as Fusang and Linyi were proud that their women could serve the people of the Song Dynasty.  Moreover, in the Song Dynasty, shipping was quite developed. His Majesty Zhao Gou, Emperor Gaozong of the Southern Song Dynasty, escaped the pursuit of the Jin army by escaping to the sea by boat. It was precisely because of this that after Gaozong, the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty had a long period of  For some time, the development of maritime transport has been vigorously encouraged. ???????? In addition, it was a kingdom of heaven. Suddenly, no country in the entire Southern Song Dynasty could compete with the Southern Song Dynasty on the sea.  It is precisely because of this that although the maritime transportation in the Southern Song Dynasty was developed, the navy was not very powerful.  In fact, the Southern Song Dynasty did not have a dedicated navy because there were no enemies to fight on the sea.  Some are just naval forces, and they are basically not stationed on the Qiantang front line, but are deployed in the Huaihe River area. Their main task is to prevent the Jin soldiers from going south.  Therefore, although Hangzhou is the only important town east of Lin'an leading to the sea, in fact, there are not many Song army leaders in Hangzhou, and the total number is only a little more than 10,000.  As for the navy army, there are only a few more than 2,000 people!  This is also because the Qiantang River is not suitable for training naval forces!  After nightfall that day, a fleet of ships sailed quickly from Hangzhou Bay, sailed upstream along the Qiantang River, and sailed quickly outside Hangzhou.  "Compared with ordinary ships, the ships in this fleet are obviously much longer and wider, but the part above the water is not very tall.  It¡¯s precisely because it¡¯s big and heavy enough.  The center of gravity is relatively low, and these ships drive very smoothly. Even when hit by the Qiantang waves, they do not swing much.  The most amazing thing is that none of these ships have oars, sails, or even wheels like those used by the Song Navy.     However.  The speed of these ships is quite fast.  Two Song Navy warships patrolling the Qiantang River had just discovered a ship approaching, and were wondering what tone to use to ask each other's identities, when they were rudely knocked over by these warships emerging from the darkness!  These warships are naturally the warships of the Yingzhou Navy.  Since Yue Fei put down Yang Yao's rebellion, the Song Navy navy began to switch from shotguns to cannons, and collectively switched to Yang Yao's chariots and ships.  ?Compared to traditional paddle boats.  Cars and boats are obviously superior in terms of speed and flexibility.  However, even so, the two warships of the Song Navy were still far from the opponents of the Yingzhou Navy's ironclads.  From the discovery of the Yingzhou Navy warship to its sinking, the entire process took less than half a quarter of an hour. The Song Navy did not even have time to react.  Before they could figure out who was coming, they were knocked over by the Yingzhou warship on the spot. The navy soldiers of the Song Dynasty also became drowned rats and fell into the Qiantang River one after another.  The incoming enemy obviously had no intention of entangled with these Song naval forces, as dark warships sailed roughly across the river one after another. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Although a few were lucky enough to escape this disaster, they still had to face the vast Qiantang River.  Whether it survives in the end basically depends on God's will.  Ignoring the fate of the two Song Army naval vessels, this group of warships took advantage of the cover of night and headed straight for the Song Army's water stronghold.  Although the Qiantang River is turbulent, its layout is limited after all, and it is not as good as the Yangtze River.  Similarly, the scale of the Song Army's water village outside Hangzhou is also very limited.  There are only a dozen Mengchong battleships in total.  Although there are not many warships, there are a lot of large ships in this water village, nine in total. This was prepared in case His Majesty the Song Dynasty got interested and wanted to visit the West Lake one day. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? On these ships, there are usually only a small number of imperial guards, and they are only responsible for guarding. As for sailing the ships to fight, don't even think about it.  Relying on the protection of the fine steel shell, the Yingzhou warship rudely smashed through the gate of the Song Army's water stronghold, and then savagely and roughly rammed into the Mengchong battleships docked in the water stronghold.  One side has been planning for a long time, and the other side is unprepared. The battle is already destined to end before it even begins.  More than a dozen Yingzhou iron-clad ships rushed into the water village and rushed through it.Most of the warships of the Song Navy were knocked over, and only a few large-scale ships remained basically intact.  "It's a pity that there are not many soldiers on these buildings, and there are not enough sailors and trackers. They are no different from a coffin on the water. Several Song soldiers were still in a daze when they were shot to the ground by flying arrows.  In fact, this is not only true for building ships, but also for warships such as the Mengchong Fighter. At night, there are not many sergeants still on the ship, only a few people. Most of the sergeants are actually camping on the shore.  middle. ????????? The total number of Song Army¡¯s naval forces is not large, and they are scattered at this moment. It is normal for the army to be defeated under the strong attack of Yingzhou Navy.  Not only that, because the Yingzhou Army moved too fast, even the navy in the camp on the shore was landed by the Yingzhou Army and entered the camp before they could figure out what was going on.  In a hurry, these Song troops were unable to organize a decent resistance, and were beaten to pieces by the Yingzhou Army. Their defeat was irreversible.  Seeing that the overall situation was decided, the Yingzhou warships in the rear quickly followed up and docked. Teams of sergeants quickly disembarked, bypassed the Song Army camp, and rushed straight to the direction of Hangzhou City behind them.  At this time, on the other side of Hangzhou City, a group of dozens of sergeants came on horseback and headed straight to the west gate of Hangzhou City.  "Which general is guarding the city? I have an urgent military situation and I want to inform Nie Zhizhou!" Before the defenders at the top of the city could ask, one of the sergeants from the team rushed forward and said.  "Master Zhizhou is resting! We'll talk about something tomorrow!" Several sergeants stretched out their torches and looked down, glanced at them pretendingly, and then turned around.  After a while, a sergeant at the top of the city shouted to the people below, pulling his neck.  "I am here on the orders of Prime Minister Shi and Shangshu Xuan. I have urgent military information to report to Magistrate Nie! If you don't hurry up and report it, you will delay Prime Minister Shi's important matter. How many heads can you chop off?  " It is true that Shi Miyuan was very tolerant towards the great Confucian scholars, but he was not tolerant at all towards other people, and he was unambiguous in killing people!  Back then, Han Kanzhou was so awesome that he almost had all the power in the government, and he was killed by Shi Miyuan, who was even younger than him at the time!  Therefore, after hearing that the sergeant under the city had taken Shi Miyuan's name, the defenders at the top of the city suddenly panicked.  After a moment of silence, the leading sergeant finally came back to his senses. He quickly popped his head and looked down at the city for a moment, and then said, "Sir, please wait a moment! May I ask, sir, why you want to see my Nie Zhizhou this time?"  ? " "Boy! Stop asking about things you shouldn't! I am acting under the orders of Prime Minister Shi. How can you, a little city gate captain, be careful?  ! After being fooled by the sergeant in the city, the captain at the top of the city was really a little panicked. "Here is the token from the Ministry of War. Why don't you open the door quickly?"  Are you tired of living?  " As he said that, the sergeant reached out and took out a dark object from his arms, and shook it randomly towards the city. Looking at the direction, the people under the city should indeed be coming from the direction of Lin'an. And the token, although  It was just a quick glance, but it seemed vaguely that the captain of the city gate was really sent by the Ministry of War. In this case, there should be nothing wrong with this group of people!  The sergeants were already shouting in unison, "Open the city quickly!  Don¡¯t make the mistake of yourself!  kill!  kill!  kill!  " Dozens of soldiers suddenly drew out their scimitars, banged their shields, and roared loudly. "Oh my God!  Why am I so unlucky to meet such a group of stupid people? They are simply stupid people who don¡¯t care about their lives!  " "It's all the fault of that traitor Shi Miyuan!  It makes me so nervous to even do the job of guarding the door!  It¡¯s true that if you don¡¯t die in old age, you are a thief!  " In my heart, I greeted all the direct women of the eighteenth generation of Shi Miyuan's ancestors one by one, but the city gate captain finally did not dare to show it. With just a moment of hesitation, he quickly turned around and went down to the city, ordering his sergeants to open the city.  With the sound of the winch creaking, the west gate of Hangzhou City finally opened. Seeing this, the sergeant from outside the city immediately rushed in and rushed into Hangzhou City. At this time, the captain of the city gate had just ran down.  City wall. "This lord" Seeing that the black-robed lord had already arrived in front of him, the captain of the city gate looked stern, and immediately put on a smile on his face, like a bright old daisy.  Unfortunately, before the captain of the city gate could finish his words, the man in black robe on the opposite side had already waved his butcher knife and headed straight for the captain of the city gate.Next!  As the defenders of Hangzhou City, many of these sergeants have never seen a real battlefield confrontation since they were soldiers until now.  In addition, the weather in Yuhang has always been smooth, there have been no disasters, and there have been no bandits or bandits.  Therefore, in the eyes of these Hangzhou soldiers, there is no concept of war at all.  Even if the black-robed general raised his sword at him at this moment, the city gate captain would only think that the other man was seeking revenge for his slightness just now!  "Misunderstanding! Sir, please move slowly" Shouting loudly, the captain of the city gate quickly turned his head to avoid the opponent's hateful blow.  It is a pity that although the captain of the city gate reacted dissatisfied, the scimitar in the hands of the black robe man opposite was faster.  Before the move could be used, the black-robed man flicked his wrist, chopping instead of cutting, and rolled straight towards the head of the city gate captain.  (To be continued.
