Three thousand skeleton soldiers, regardless of casualties, blocked the opening of the Mongolian elite cavalry charge.
For the first time, Bai Xiaowen used the essence of the spirit of death to strengthen temporarily all the undead slaves.
Every skeleton soldier is wrapped with a layer of black energy. After being strengthened, their every attack is attached with energy similar to spiritual power. Both attack power and defense power are greatly improved.
In other words, these weak skeleton soldiers, strengthened by the face of death, have become ordinary template monsters with spiritual power.
Although the Mongolian elite soldiers who are brave and good at fighting are still at a disadvantage, the 10000 song troops behind them are not vegetarian.
The bow and crossbow men of the song army who got supplies were supported by bursts of arrows, and the Mongolian elite soldiers were turned upside down.
Moreover, there are four heavenly kings and many elite and leader level undead monsters.
The battle lasted only more than an hour and was over.
Two thousand Mongolian elite riders were wiped out.
Mongolian general tachar was killed on the spot.
The king of the next four days stayed to "clean the battlefield", while Bai Xiaowen took Quan Zicai and his song army and slowly entered caizhou city for rest - after all, the scene of the king of the fourth day cleaning the battlefield is somewhat uncomfortable, so it''s better not to let the song army see it.
Caizhou city was the last place where the king AI Zong Wanyan Shouxu fled when the state of Jin perished. After a lapse of more than half a month, we can still see the embers of the war and the bones filling the river.
Such cities can be found everywhere in the Central Plains. The massacre policy of the Mongols is too anti human.
"The ancient capital is unified. There is no way to thank you for saving your life. Please accept the whole one!"
Abaddon''s breath is a little depressed. Obviously, the "cleaning the battlefield" just consumed a lot of spiritual power. His massive body took a step forward and picked up quanzi: "no thanks for small things."
Quan Zicai sighed, "Shi Songzhi, the envoy of Beijing lake system, prevaricated and refused to send reinforcements. If it weren''t for the ancient capital system, I and these 10000 children wouldn''t know where to bury our bones."
After some emotion, they took their seats.
But Abaddon respected Bai Xiaowen in the Lord. The whole son saw him and secretly said he was surprised, but he respected Abaddon and knew that the young Taoist expert was a wonder in the world. At present, he was willing to sit in Bai Xiaowen''s hands.
"Ancient capital Tong, since you have brought supplies and eliminated the Mongolian army in Henan, can you consider going north again and recovering the three capitals?"
Quan Zicai said, "the Mongolian army has been destroyed, and tachar is dead. No one can stop our army anymore. Quan is willing to support his horse and foot to help the ancient capital achieve this great achievement."
Abaddon looked at Bai Xiaowen.
Bai Xiaowen shook his head slightly.
Abaddon shook his head and said, "No."
"Why?" Quan Zicai asked Bai Xiaowen instead of Abaddon this time. He had seen that the Lord of lumen could be the Lord of Abaddon.
"Now is not the time to recover the three capitals," Bai Xiaowen shook his head. "What we annihilate today is only a small number of troops left by the Mongols in Henan. The main force of the Mongolian army, after the gold war, withdrew to the north of the Yellow River for rest. We continue to advance north, of course, to recover the three capitals, but when the warm spring flowers bloom next year, the Mongols will go south again. How can we resist it?"
Quan Zicai said, "the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth. They put forward the strategy of guarding the river in the hall. Our generals can only obey orders."
Bai Xiaowen said lightly, "general, you have seen the broken situation in the Central Plains. Do you really think that the strategy of guarding the river at the pass is feasible?"
Quanzi was asked.
Bai Xiaowen continued: "I came with the army for support. All the cities I saw along the way have been deserted. The big city with hundreds of thousands of people has now been reduced to only hundreds of households. White bones cross the field and corpses fill the river... I think Sanjing is also broken. Such waste land can''t be guarded by danger. The transportation of military grain alone is a big problem."
The whole son said, "but after all, we have received the emperor''s order."
Bai Xiaowen said coldly, "the emperor is wrong, and the generals can''t encourage his mistakes. Haven''t the whole general learned enough?"
The whole son thought that there were only 10000 soldiers left in 60000 troops, and looked down sadly. He didn''t even care about Bai Xiaowen''s mistake of telling the emperor directly - of course, the Song Dynasty was a time when the emperor and scholar bureaucrats ruled the world, which was far from reaching the point where the Qing Dynasty was a "Saint" and dared not even mention a bad word.
Bai Xiaowen said: "Today''s emperor is vigorous and reckless. If we recover the three capitals, he will send the soldiers of Jianghuai to the north to guard these empty cities, transport the gold, silk, food and population of Jianghuai, and restore this wasteland. In peacetime, of course, this is good governance. Twenty years of gathering and education can make the North prosperous again. The problem is, will the Mongols Give him this chance? "
Quanzi murmured, "no, Mongolia will fight if it has an excuse for war."
Quanzi is not a mediocre. Of course, he knows that Bai Xiaowen is telling the truth.
At that time, the Central Plains will not be rich, and the fundamental land of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Yangtze and Huaihe rivers, will become empty, and it is easy to provoke civil uprisings and endless disasters.
Bai Xiaowen continued to refute: "it''s nonsense to talk about standing at the pass and guarding the river. The state of Jin can rely on the natural danger of the Yellow River to resist Mongolia for more than 20 years. It depends on 100000 iron cavalry of the Jin army. The Yellow River has a long river bank, and the great song dynasty lacks enough cavalry, so it can''t defend it at all. According to my estimation, it needs at least 200000 elite to defend the natural graben of the Yellow River. Does the great song dynasty have such a force?"
The whole son shook his head.
Bai Xiaowen got up and said, "let''s go! General Quan, return to Guangzhou. The northern expedition of the Song Dynasty has ended. The Mongolian expedition to the South has just begun!"
……
In December, the disabled soldiers of the song army returned to the territory of the Song Dynasty.
Song LiZong admitted his defeat. He dealt with some of the main war faction officials, including Quan Zicai, who were demoted to the first rank, and some were even dismissed.
Subsequently, emperor li of the Song Dynasty issued the "criminal edict", which was discussed fiercely in the court of the Ping Dynasty.
After doing this, song LiZong''s morale declined obviously. According to Shi Miyuan''s report, song LiZong no longer cares about government affairs.
Shi Miyuan, Zheng Qingzhi and other officials controlled the court.
Some people in the court are good at being officials, and so are generals.
If Abaddon had, it would be hidden; Meritorious, but never vague.
The achievements of sending troops to save quanzicai and annihilating the Mongolian tachar department are all counted on Abaddon. Soon, Abaddon''s promotion order came down, and he was exceptionally promoted to Huaibei recruitment envoy. The imperial court increased the supply of money and food, allowed Abaddon to expand the army and recruit troops, and presided over the defense of Huaibei area.
Bai Xiaowen''s goal has also been achieved. Abaddon finally became an important general of the military of the Southern Song Dynasty. With the demons such as Shi Miyuan controlling the court, Changsheng gate has completely penetrated into the military and political system of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the strategy plan has been preliminarily completed!
