    This is why the Yan family's army has a large number of troops, but they have fewer elite soldiers and more recruits. The combat skills of such recruits are not good, and their morale is also very low. Almost as long as a cannonball falls into the infantry group, the entire Hundred Houses team will immediately start to flee. Even the Mongols  The officers shouted loudly to no avail. Although Yan Zhongsi led his 3,000 men, they still fought bravely and even broke into the Song army's position several times. However, they were immediately swarmed and counterattacked by the Song army.  In the end, Tachaer had to temporarily remove thousands of Gaochang soldiers who were used by Gaochang to besiege Yingzhou. All of these Gaochang soldiers were descendants of the Han Dynasty garrison soldiers. However, thousands of years have passed, and their facial features have completely changed.  There are no traces of the Han people, but these descendants of Gaochang, who consider themselves Uighurs, are indeed good at infantry attacks. They do not form a dense formation and rush forward, but use the undulations of the terrain to constantly seek cover.  The object slowly approached the Song Army's position, and only a few dozen steps in front of the Song Army's position began to gather troops and launch a charge.  However, the Song army was one step ahead of them and took the initiative to rush out of the position. When the Uighur infantry failed to form a formation, they decisively started a melee with them. This was an active tactic to take advantage of the enemy's formation before it was completed. It was used before crossing the river.  Hit the middle ground.  Sure enough, the Uighur soldiers could not form a formation, so they could only fight on their own and engage in a large-scale melee with the Song army in front of the position. Zhang Sheng continued to put new troops into the front line, and finally was able to repel the Uighur soldiers.  But such a battle was unfavorable to the Song army. After the first wave of Uighur soldiers had just been driven back, Tachaer sent another group of Tibetan cavalry and continued to attack Zhang Sheng's position.  "This can't go on like this!" The deputy general looked at the scuffle between the infantry and the Tibetan cavalry in front and asked anxiously: "When the fog lifts and the enemy swarms up, even if we are all three-headed and six-armed, it will be difficult to resist. What on earth did our husband do?"  I thought, we only need ten thousand soldiers to go to such an important place!" Zhang Sheng shouted with a stern face: "If you are afraid, run away now. My husband asked us to hold on until the end of the day. The calculation must have been made. I will wait.  Even if your body is shattered, you must stick to the position in Huhuangzhou before dark!" The deputy general was also a figure who had followed Zhang Sheng in his promotion since Dahongshan. He immediately said angrily: "I have been following the capital for many years. When did I stop moving forward?  He regards a war as a child's play. Now that a surprise attack has failed, ten thousand people are trapped here. How can people believe that he is still the same ten-step plan back then, but every plan is sure to be successful?  Is this Mr. Zheng? Not only do we feel unsure about Mr. Zheng, but the Mongols will also laugh at him! " "Zheng Yunming is no longer the feared fox!" Zhang Shun's lieutenant complained.  At that time, Brother Meng was sitting on the golden dragon chair under the golden dome, laughing loudly at all the generals: "This time I will capture Zheng Yunming alive for you to see!"  The highest-ranking generals of the Mongolian army below Meng Ge Khan were never far away from the Great Khan. Only he dared to ask loudly: "The former Nanman landed at Shawozi in the lower reaches and occupied Huama Lake. The Niphos Belt was extremely good.  The warriors went to attack, but they could not drive the enemy away. The enemy landed on the Great Lake further south. We sent 5,000 warriors from Khwarezm who were able to use battle axes, but they failed to win. Even the pontoon bridge to the north was lost.  On one side, the soldiers from the north surrounded the southern barbarians and attacked them, but they have been unable to defeat them until now. At this time, the Great Khan said that Zheng Yunming was useless. Why? " Brother Meng laughed and said: "Han Tuhu,  People in the Central Plains all talk about the art of war. What we Mongolians talk about is the method of fighting. Although there are no results for the time being in several battlefields today, Zheng Yunming's method of using troops is no longer appropriate. You must understand that he has fewer troops and we have more troops. If he wants to  To defeat us, unless it is a surprise attack, or simply concentrate the troops to defeat one of my units first, and then attack them one by one. I think his plan is to attack by surprise, and he is not small. If he starts from Huama Lake.  The purpose of landing was to copy our army's back and plan to attack our army that was besieging Ezhou from behind. The Song army that landed from Huhuangzhou was to prevent the soldiers from Jiangbei from coming for reinforcements, but our army's response was slower.  Zheng Yunming imagined much faster. His three surprise attack troops were blocked by our powerful offensive before they actually broke into our camp. Then, Zheng Yunming not only failed to achieve the purpose of the surprise attack, but also lost many soldiers in vain. Not only did he  Instead of being able to concentrate his troops, he dispersed them in three different battlefields, and the main force had not had time to reinforce these three battlefields. He was now in a difficult position to advance and retreat. He had lost the ability to actively respond. The only thing he could do now was  Yes, we will honestly strengthen our defense in Hanyang and wait for our army to conquer Ezhou, then go down the river to fight him decisively. Now, our top priority is to conquer Ezhou, and then concentrate all our forces to fight Zheng Yunming in a big battle. This big battle  The leadership is completely in our hands, and it will only be a matter of time before Zheng Yunming is defeated!  " He raised the wine glass with rubies embedded in his hand and said loudly: "If Zheng Yun?If you fail and still refuse to surrender to the Mongols, go ahead and chop off his head and use it to replace my wine glass!  "Using the skull of an enemy commander or king as a drinking vessel is a relic of the ancient wilderness, but it is still a very popular trend in the Western Regions and Mobei. The skull of an enemy general decorated with gold paint and inlaid with pearls and gems is used for banquets.  Drinking for fun is indeed a barbaric stimulation to boost morale and demonstrate martial prowess. Although the method sounds very scary, it is quite consistent with the style of these warriors who are accompanied by skeletons on the battlefield every day.  Everyone responded in unison: "We should take Zheng Yunming's head and make a drinking vessel for the Great Khan!  " Hao Jing stood aside and saw the murderous aura suddenly rising in the tent. He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The Immortal God loves all things and will not kill indiscriminately in his lifetime.  The Great Khan came to the Southern Dynasty to punish the people for their crimes, and to follow the right path to attack the unworthy ministers. After the war, he should care for the people of the Southern Dynasty and should not kill them too much.  " Brother Meng waved his hand impatiently and said: "Of course I know that you Confucian scholars are always troublesome to your mother-in-law. I don't know how Kublai Khan can tolerate you. Anyone who greets my army with flowers will be greeted by the Mongols.  Flowers greet him. Anyone who fights against my army will surely be greeted with destruction!  This is the principle of longevity and the tradition of Mongolia!  " He raised his wine glass high and shouted: "First capture Ezhou, and then bring everything under the blue sky under the rule of Mongolia!  " At this time, Zheng Yunming was standing on a reef by the Yangtze River, nervously watching the white fog on the river dissipate bit by bit. Once the white fog dissipated, the Mongolian army would launch a final general attack on Ezhou. This  It also announced that the core of the Jinghu area fell into the hands of the Mongolian army, and Jiangling was bound to be defeated. It can be said that the rescue organized by the Song Dynasty with all the country's strategic mobility will end in failure. Bai Yijie stood beside Zheng Yunming.  Behind him, this strange man from the Southern Dynasties who has been following him for twenty years has always been majestic and tall, but for some reason at this time, his back is slightly stooped. Carrying the entire country on one person for twenty years is really a heavy burden.  It was too heavy, and even Zheng Yunming finally had to give up. But he must not give up, Bai Yijie said in his heart. He was originally just an idle cloud in the border area. His career as an official in the past twenty years has not only accumulated achievements and fame.  It also made him see that building a new society is an extremely attractive task. The transforming Song Dynasty is not just Zheng Yunming's Song Dynasty, but also Bai Yijie's Song Dynasty. It is the Song Dynasty of every official, petty official, soldier, and farmer.  The Song Dynasty with Sailor included thousands of people in Nanyang, Goryeo, Yue and even Mongolia. Although the situation today is critical, Bai Yijie will never give up if necessary, and can even put his lord under house arrest with troops.  Then Ma Guangzu, the envoy along the river, was appointed as the commander, and he sent troops without permission to fight the Mongolian Khan. This was naturally a capital crime, and Bai Yijie was cautious in his life. He did not think that a Song army that suddenly lost such a charismatic commander could defeat the already demoralized Song army.  The Mongol army was at its peak. But it was better to fight to the death than to do nothing and wait for everything to end. He took a step forward silently, and suddenly felt a cold feeling on his face, and then it became cold.  The raindrops fell on his shoulders one after another. The rapid rainstorm seemed to come suddenly from the heavy fog. Without any warning, the heavy rain poured down from the sky like a waterfall, as if God felt that this time  The Song Dynasty was not critical enough, so they took half of the water from Dongting Lake and poured it on the heads of the fighting horses. Bai Yijie was stunned for a moment, and then realized that this was a good thing for the Song army. The heavy rain would certainly hinder the Mongolian army.  The siege plan gave the Song army an opportunity to mobilize its forces. The most critical thing at the moment was to withdraw the two troops from Huhuangzhou and Daye Lake, concentrate their forces to break through the Mongolian siege from Huama Lake, and then open the door.  The blockade of Ezhou and the final decisive battle with the Mongols. There was no time for hesitation. Bai Yijie shouted loudly: "Send the order to our army in Huhuangzhou and Huama Lake to retreat. The whole army will take shelter from the rain for the time being."  After the heavy rain, go immediately to reinforce Huama Lake Han Dutong!  " "Who said we were going to retreat!  "Bai Yijie was surprised to hear Zheng Yunming, who had been silent on the rock for almost an hour, shouting in a decisive tone that he had never seen before: "Now is the time for the decisive victory!  " He turned around, letting the rain flow on his face, and shouted loudly: "Take the cover of my Qingluo umbrella!  The army is gathering and preparing to cross the river!  "
