    Zheng Yunming had no choice but to continue to stick to the step-by-step tactics. On the first day, he used military formations to cover and advanced for five miles, and then re-established the stockade. Wang Shixian's men charged and intercepted, but although the Ganlong cavalry were brave, they were still inferior to him.  The elite army that Qiqu came out was still not as good as it was. Not only did it fail to defeat the Zhenwu Army's triple formation, but it was violently bombarded by General Huo Zhuzhu, losing many men and horses.  When the Ganlong cavalry saw that their weapons were so sharp, they did not dare to charge any more.  On the second day, the Song army broke camp and moved forward five miles. The Mongols simply gave up the harassment and only sent hundreds of people to monitor the outside from a distance.  On the third day, Zheng Yunming realized that something was wrong. He said to Chen Guang, the leader of the Youyi Army: "Something is not right. This Wang Shixian will never wait helplessly for me to press in front of him. Hurry up and catch up with 300 people."  Go ahead and try to fight them to see what they want." Chen Guang agreed and immediately ordered 300 people from You Yi Army to go to the sentinel.  After a long time, I saw a sergeant panting and flying to report: "We have been tricked. Wang Shixian's military stronghold is just a cover. There is no one in the stronghold for a long time!" Zheng Yunming was surprised and angry, surprised.  What was surprising was that the strategy he had used before had Wang Shixian repeat his old tricks, and he was not aware of it. What was angry was that this was originally an excellent opportunity, because he had planned it properly and had already squeezed Wang Shixian and his cavalry into the enemy.  An embarrassing corner. He originally did not think that he had enough strength to annihilate Wang Shixian's troops, but as long as he was severely damaged and the Wang family lost part of their vitality, their role in the Mongolian army could be reduced, and the future resistance war in Sichuan would be reduced.  It was of great help that he certainly understood that three generations of the Wang family were the most vicious enemies of the Sichuan Song Army. This was a good opportunity to eradicate the threat of the next few decades in one fell swoop, but he lost it because of his momentary indolence.  He led dozens of his followers to the front to carefully observe the camp left by Wang Shixian as a tactic to lure the enemy. The resourceful old fox Wang Shixian was much more sophisticated in these tricks than Zheng Yunming, a novice on the battlefield. For example, he was not like Zheng Yunming.  They dug three feet into the ground to bury the fence in the same way, but used floating soil to stabilize the fence. Many tents were built in the camp, and a few straw figures were randomly placed outside the tents. Although it looked like it was done casually, to outsiders it looked like it was done casually.  It is far more realistic than Zheng Yunming's honest work of putting up a bunch of straw men. This is the experience gained from many years of intrigue on the battlefield. It is impossible for Zheng Yunming to learn it all at once.  Zheng Yunming also admired Wang Shixian's courage very much. He threw away all the fabrics and jewelry that were too late to be transported away. If the burning would not cause black smoke to arouse Zheng Yunming's suspicion, he would have burned all these things with a fire.  For the same reason, because he was worried that the screams caused by the killing would arouse Zheng Yunming's suspicion, he decisively gave up killing all the civilians who were captured with the army.  Fortunately, Zheng Yunming followed closely, otherwise these people might have been killed on the roadside at any time by Wang Shixian's men as a burden.  Things have become very obvious. Wang Shixian took advantage of the opportunity of confronting Zheng Yunming in the past few days to look for a way around Lingquan Pass.  Although Lingquan Pass is known as an important pass, there are actually several roads nearby that can lead to the back of the pass.  Wang Shixian walked quickly with a high military rank. At this time, he had probably climbed over the hills next to Lingquan Pass and fled to the north.  Wang Deng, who knew that he had fallen into the trap, also rushed to see him and said angrily: "Please order me to lead three thousand people to pursue you. I must show Wang Shixian how powerful he is!" Zheng Yunming smiled bitterly and replied: "Then  What do you think? The only thing we can do now is to chase Wang Shixian and put some pressure on him to get back early. Now I will hand over all the 2,500 cavalry led by Yao Zhong to you, plus your own  Three thousand mounted infantry formed a pursuit force and immediately caught up, harassing Wang Shixian's troops on the road until they drove him out of Shukou!" After a pause, he turned to Xu Yuanjie and said: "Xu Jiyi  Make arrangements immediately. Our army cannot stay here and continue to pursue the enemy. There is no time to process the money, silk and food. Immediately distribute them to the rescued people and let them go south along the Jialing River to temporarily settle in Chongqing. Remember.  , sent someone to tell Wang Kui that now that I am in Sichuan, I will not allow him to kill an innocent person indiscriminately. If I hear that Jiading officers and soldiers killed people and took property, let him come and take the lives of the people who were killed! " " Xu Yuanjie!  Could it be: "These captured items were obtained by the soldiers who marched hard and fought hard. Now they are distributed to the people like this. The army has not treated them like this since ancient times. If they are distributed among the troops, the points should be appropriate." Zheng Yunming waved his hand and said: "Not so  The thing is, this batch of food and money is for the people to survive, but for us, it is not needed for the time being. To pursue long-distance pursuits, what is needed is to maintain the hunger for the prey. Once you feel full, you can't help but chase.  The pace will slow down, the sense of tension will be lost, and the tense nerves will become paralyzed. For a hunter, this is"Dangerous things, we must continue to pursue them until the enemy is driven out of Sichuan."  " He ordered Lu Xunzhi behind him: "Weng Lu, gather your troops and move forward quickly. Let's chase Wang Shixian up!  " Since Wang Shixian surrendered to Mongolia, he claimed that there was only one Cao Youwen in the Southern Dynasty. After annihilating Cao Youwen, he would no longer be able to find a rival in the Southern Dynasty. At this time, he would inevitably lament the loneliness of having no rival in the world.  The Southern Dynasty refused to surrender to the pleasure of revenge, but this time he was completely embarrassed by this Song general whose name he had not yet figured out. Wang Deng deployed his troops in several directions.  After attacking the enemy, once Wang Shixian fell down to counterattack, he immediately galloped away. Wang Shixian was determined to pursue him, but he soon discovered that Zheng Yunming's army was coming after Wang Deng. He was unwilling to engage in a large-scale battle with Zheng Yunming.  After two or three meaningless harassment battles, he finally made up his mind to fight Zheng Yunming on Mount Baitou near Langzhong. As a result, Zheng Yunming's troops occupied the highlands of Mount Baitou, and General Zhu fired fire blunderbuss and arrows at once.  The huge roar and acrid black smoke frightened the horses of Wang Shixian's men, making it difficult for them to get close to the Song army's formation. Wang Shixian's troops were defeated and fled, discarding countless golden drums, armor and weapons along the way, in a state of disarray.  Escape from Jianmen Pass and run all the way to the north. Zheng Yunming's victory actually has no practical significance. When facing an unfavorable situation, Wang Shixian's speed of withdrawing his troops is simply amazing. Even when Zheng Yunming held his position, he could not lose to Wang Shixian.  , but there was nothing we could do to pursue and annihilate them. Apart from picking up the golden drum equipment scattered by Wang Shixian along the way, the number of active forces killed was almost nothing. But for the entire Sichuan war situation, Zheng Yunming's victory played a politically important role in breaking the Mongolian army.  The myth of invincibility has little meaning to Zheng Yunming, but it is of great significance to the soldiers and civilians of Sichuan. Since the breakthrough at Shukou, the entire Sichuan has been shaken. Almost no place in Chengdu and the prefectures and counties in the western Sichuan Plain has not been conquered.  Or after raids, the defenders of the conquered prefectures and counties were either dead or fleeing. The defenders of the unconquered prefectures and counties were also thinking about whether they should surrender to the Mongols. If the Mongolian attack was a little more fierce, maybe  The choices of many states and counties will be different. All in all, Sichuan is in a delicate situation at this time. A change in the weight at any time may cause a change in the ownership of Shu. At this time, the Song Dynasty invested an influence.  The weight of the overall situation, Zheng Yunming's powerful response to Wang Shixian along the way from Jiading to Sichuan gave an obvious signal to the states and counties in central Sichuan. Although the elite of Shu was gone, Sichuan once again had a strong force that could compete with the Mongols.  . With this army and horses, Sichuan has a backbone, and it will not let the Mongolian cavalry attack so wantonly. Sichuan's people will be calmer, and then they can pursue this important purpose of recovery until a few years later.  , and then gradually became noticed by the imperial court and the bureaucrats throughout Sichuan. At this time, Zheng Yunming only urged the army to pursue and kill him. After Wang Shixian rushed out of Yangping Pass, the march speed obviously accelerated, and it only took three days.  After getting rid of the pursuit of Wang Deng's troops, he quickly retreated into the Mongolian territory.  Zheng Yunming, who was helpless, could only order Wang Deng to stop at Yangping Pass and wait for the main force to arrive.  Near Jiguan Mountain, there are piles of bones and scattered armor and ordnance everywhere. One can imagine the ferocity of the fierce battle on rainy nights.  On a mountain pass a few miles away from Jiguan Mountain, Jing Chu's army found Cao Youwen's bones. The bones were still holding a sword tightly in their hands. Even with great strength, it was difficult to take the sword away from their hands.  The brave battle flag was not found beside him. It must have been taken back to the north by the Mongolian soldiers as a trophy.  The Jingchu Army stayed at this tragic battlefield for seven days. They buried the remains of all their comrades in Jilong Mountain with the most solemn etiquette, and the entire team held a grand memorial ceremony.  Zheng Yunming's speech at the memorial ceremony was recorded by Liu Kezhuang in "Zhongxing Miscellaneous Records". The book recorded Zheng Yunming's original words in vernacular language.  "The bones they buried today will be the foundation for us to expel the Tartars in the future. Their heroic souls echoing in the Shu Mountains will be their guide to us to rebuild the mountains and rivers! A man who died for the country deserved his death! The sky can tell the difference.  "Zheng is able to achieve this kind of good result, and he is worthy of his parents, his majesty and his country!" His words were heroic, but his subsequent actions did not look like he wanted to regain the country for the country.  While Zheng Yunming sent Lu Xunzhi to lead his army back south, he also sent people to inform generals from all over the country to go to Chongqing to hold a meeting to discuss strategies. However, Zheng Yunming himself took a few personal followers and risked being intercepted by the enemy's cavalry before leaving Yangping Pass.  The last resistance force of the Song Army still remains here.
