On the first day of December, there is a slight cold.
As the saying goes, "A small cold and a big cold will freeze everything together." There is a big temperature difference between the north of the Qinling Mountains and the south of the Qinling Mountains, and in the land of Shuozhou, the temperature on this day was very low.
Brother Meng was wearing a fur robe, and armor on top of the fur robe. The very simple armor only protected the important parts. It looked like an iron harness.
He had just walked through the school grounds, and the cold wind was even more biting.
There are five ten thousand households beside him, and Tenggeda has only a few thousand people under his command.
So he has been kicked out of the ranks of Wanhu, and now he is just a deputy general beside Meng Ge.
The five 10,000 households of Hulagu, Qidebuhua, Yedesha Zuozhi, Faheludin, and Qishilihei, plus Mengge’s own tribe and Ten thousand households in Tenggeda, make a total of 100,000 households. Thousands of soldiers and horses.
Now, his younger brother Hulagu has arrived in Ulancha to take charge.
The Anbei Protectorate of Daqian has been completely controlled by Meng Yuan.
For Meng Ge, he has actually completed the first stage of the task of going south. It can be said that this seemingly arduous task has only lost 10,000 households, and the cost is not very high.
Now that Daqian's Anbei Protectorate has been captured, it's time to continue southward.
As long as he can capture Jinyang City, he will become the first person to open the gate of Daqian Kingdom.
From then on, it was legitimate to take over Meng Yuan from Temujin.
It is also possible to become a first-class hero in the world.
The Meng Yuan camp spent the cold morning in the busy preparations before the attack.
Naturally, there is no need to conduct a night raid in a siege.
First of all, siege battles are already difficult, but for the Meng Yuan cavalry, it is even more difficult.
Secondly, it was already difficult and had to be done at night, but the weather was so cold that even holding the weapon felt like my hands were frozen together by the weapon.
In one place, how can one attack a city with such indifference?
If you can't even see the flag, how can you convey the order?
Therefore, Brother Meng planned to launch an siege at Chenshi, when the sky was getting bright.
"What's the meaning?"
"When the fourth child was attacking Xingqing Mansion, he encountered a mysterious weapon that could emit a huge fire a hundred meters away and kill many people?"
"How many men did he lose in the battle?"
Meng Beibei asked, already reaching out to pick up his own armor, and put it on his body. It was cold and biting, making people feel uncomfortable all over.
"Go back to your Majesty. One hundred thousand soldiers and horses. More than fifty thousand have returned. The Khan sent me to convey that you must be careful about the weapon Da Gan has."
Brother Meng glanced outside the tent and said to himself: "It's almost dawn... blow the horn for me!"
It was almost dawn, and the whole army was already ready to go. It was impossible for him to issue a ceasefire order at this time.
Besides, he didn't quite believe that Da Gan had any powerful weapons that could cause such casualties.
"Qi Shi Li Hei!"
Brother Meng directly shouted to Wanhu outside the account: "You are the vanguard, send troops to attack Shuozhou immediately! Quick! Must be quick!"
"Fa and Ludin, lead your troops to bypass Shuozhou and attack Dingxiang City!"
"Yes, Sha Zuozhi, you lead your troops to find a way from the west and directly harass the west of Jinyang. Remember, you only need to attract the attention of the Daqian Imperial Army on the other side of Jinyang. It is best to lure them out of the city."
"I don't care what method you use, as long as the imperial army leaves the city, you will have done a great job!"
When the time comes, there is no need to delay.
Meng Ge ignored the advice of the envoys around him and did not care about Kublai Khan's failure on the West Road, and directly issued a military order.
"As you command!"
"No chaos in the front! Follow me to kill the enemy!"
Zhang Shijie shouted and stabbed a Mongolian rebel soldier to death with a spear in his hand.
The wind from the north blew with a gray smell, which made him feel happy.
Seeing that the Meng Yuan camp has been stationed for almost half a month and they have not yet seen them attack the city, this feeling is actually not pleasant.
He really wanted to have a good fight, even if he died on the Shuozhou city wall, it would still be worth it.
He remembered a saying when he was with the Long Wei Army of Wang Yueshan in Yong'an County, "It is a shame for soldiers to let the enemy wield their swords at the people." This was their belief when they were guarding Lanzhou after the battle with Xixia.
He prefers to fight with Prince Yong'an. No matter what situation he faces, he will go up and defeat the enemy.
Of course, Daqian needs handsome men who can stand alone, and he, Zhang Shijie, is not that, far from it.
But no matter what, today I can finally kill the enemy.
The anger he was holding in his heart should be killed.
His Highness the Crown Prince's words are very good. If the world is unified and the Meng Yuan is not destroyed, how can we talk about ZTE?
His Majesty and Prince Yong'an personally conquered Meng Yuan. Only a few years later, Meng Yuan was revived.
What if the Great Qian Dynasty was restored and the Meng Yuan people went south again?
They went south again and again, burning, killing and looting again and again.
How about starting from now on, creating peace for all generations and creating a bright and prosperous world, so that future generations can live a peaceful year.
Meng Ge saw that the flag of the general Daqian on the opposite side had been in front of the formation, and felt the opponent's excitement, thinking that this must be a brave general.
Unexpectedly, when the two sides started fighting, the Dagan defenders actually fought step by step.
First there was the long-range shooting with arrows, and then there were methods such as smashing rocks, pouring gold soup, pushing walls and ladders, stabbing with spears and so on.
There is no such thing as the weapon that the messenger mentioned that can produce huge flames from a hundred miles away and is extremely lethal.
The defenders of Daqian looked fierce and majestic, but they fought in vain.
"What kind of weapon are you talking about? Why don't you see the Daqian defenders using it?"
In the sound of fighting.
Meng Ge stood on the watchtower in front of the camp, watching the siege.
It has been a while now, and several of Meng Yuan's soldiers have already climbed onto the city wall. Although they were all hacked to death in the end, they still managed to get onto the city wall anyway.
The situation on the Daqian defense side looks a bit unoptimistic.
Just... I haven't seen any huge flaming weapons that the messenger mentioned?
Could it be that Kublai Khan came up with this excuse after his defeat on the West Road to fool the Khan?
When Brother Meng thought of this, he frowned slightly. He was not worried, but rather displeased with Kublai Khan's deceptive lies.
Fourth child, he won't do it.
The next moment, "dong dong dong", war drums were beating on the city wall.
In the capital, trumpets sounded.
"Reinforcements!" the messenger shouted.
Meng Ge also saw it.
The gates of Shuozhou Capital City were opened. At the same time, to the east, Fahe Luding's troops, who were originally going to bypass Shuozhou City, fought and retreated, but scouts came quickly.
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Guards have appeared in the east. We had just marched no more than ten miles when we encountered them."
"The general ordered us to fight and then retreat."
Meng Ge looked at the flags behind Fa and Ludin, appearing on the horizon, and then the densely packed Dagan Imperial Army appeared.
"You are so cowardly that you immediately lead your troops to fight and stop the large army of imperial guards from leaving the city!"
Seeing the situation of the siege, it was slowed down or even greatly affected by the large number of imperial guards rushing out of the capital.
He immediately ordered the generals around him to lead troops into battle without fear.
For him, this sudden change did not have a great impact on the entire battlefield.
Because what Meng Yuan is good at is cavalry combat.
Didn't the Daqian Forbidden Army take the initiative to attack, giving him an opportunity to fully utilize the advantages of the Mongolian and Yuan cavalry?
The envoy next to him quickly reminded: "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Fourth Highness is like this. Because the Imperial Guards of the Dagan Army suddenly came over, they wanted to use their cavalry to fight to the death, but they never thought that the other party would actually use weapons that can produce huge flames and fight. Our cavalry was unable to control the horses and many of them were burned to death, please be careful, Your Majesty."
Meng Ge waved his hand and said: "I understand."
He doesn't care about the weapon at all now, let alone believes that there is such a thing in this world.
If Da Gan really had that kind of weapon, why didn't he take it out from the beginning? Why didn't he just take the initiative and use that kind of weapon to burn down his Chinese army camp?
This is definitely fake.
When the envoy saw that Meng Ge didn't believe it, he became extremely anxious, but he was helpless. He was just a small envoy.
Seeing this, he took another look at the battlefield.
Outside Shuozhou City, there are three battlefields. One is to the east. Thousands of soldiers and horses led by Fa and Ludin are struggling to resist the Imperial Guards. As the opponent gets closer, they also see the banner above. There is one word written on it, "Di".
The envoy knew Chinese characters, because Kublai Khan once made a suggestion. He felt that the reason why the Central Plains was so powerful was because there were many scholars in the Central Plains. The Han people in the Central Plains had dominated the Central Plains for so many years, and their culture definitely had merit.
In one country, if Meng Yuan could really defeat Da Qian and unify the Central Plains, he would still need scholars to govern the place.
By then, it’s impossible to use all officials from Central Plains, right?
Naturally, the people of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty are encouraged to learn more Chinese characters and culture of the Central Plains, so as to facilitate the governance of the Central Plains in the future of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty.
Temujin naturally accepted it.
The second battlefield was naturally the siege of Qishilihei. With the support of Hulagu, the siege continued.
Then there was the cowardly battlefield outside the city, almost blocking the large imperial army that had just opened up the situation and set up their formation.
It seems that even the Forbidden Army can't get close to here, so it's still safe here.
The messenger really believed that the mysterious weapon of huge fire existed.
Because he learned Chinese characters from the Central Plains, read about the culture of the Central Plains, and was attracted by its profound cultural heritage, he recognized Kublai Khan and believed what Kublai Khan said.
The key is, it is better to believe that something exists than to believe something does not exist.
The words of the Central Plains sages are indeed the truth.
The envoy felt that a large force of imperial guards was advancing here, almost a few hundred meters away, so he would look for an opportunity to escape.
Naturally, Brother Meng didn't know what the messenger around him was thinking. If he knew, he would definitely tie him to the watchtower.
What mysterious weapon of huge fire?
Today, he is bound to capture Shuozhou and march to Jinyang. When the time comes, he will ask the Khan to send Kublai Khan to attack Datong Pass.
We cannot let Lao Si completely lose his military power. It will be difficult for him to resist Haidu alone.
…
Daqian soldiers yelled, trying hard to break off Fahe Ludin's teeth, and almost pierced his face with their fingers.
Another soldier hit Faherudin on the head to get him to let go.
With another scream, Fa and Rudin bit off the fingers in their mouths, turned their heads violently, and spat out the severed fingers and blood.
In the chaos, one of his eyes was poked and blood flowed, but he finally struggled out and slashed with a knife, looking like a madman. Several Daqian soldiers who rushed around him were repelled.
Di Qing was furious, raised the spear in his hand, rushed forward, and when he saw a flaw, he stabbed Fa and Ludin in the thigh with his spear.
"Today, I will kill you!"
During the Chahar campaign, ten thousand households from the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty escaped.
Today, one million Meng Yuan households must be killed!
Fa and Ludin swung their swords again, forcing back a Daqian soldier beside him. He stumbled a few steps and fell into the arms of several guards who rushed to save him from behind.
"Bitch thief! You want to kill me too!"
Under the banner, Faheludin and his guards were still resisting. He thought he was one of the best warriors on the grassland, but he didn't expect that he, who was at the forefront of the battle just now, was defeated by Di Qing's battle formation.
When more than ten thousand cavalry met Di Qing's troops, they launched a charge, but were blocked by Di Qing.
The two sides faced each other and suffered casualties on each other.
However, Fa and Ludin thought that they had encountered the Dagan Forbidden Army who came to support them. There must also be reinforcements from the Dagan Forbidden Army over there at the Mengyuan Camp and Shuozhou City.
Seeing that the opponent had a large number of troops, he had no choice but to give the order to fight and then retreat.
When he arrived outside Shuozhou City, he wanted to show off. To this end, he directly led his bodyguards to charge with him.
Unexpectedly, Di Qing calmly waved the five-color flag in his hand and lined up his troops while facing the enemy.
Faherudin and his more than ten thousand cavalry were separated in an instant, and just a cup of tea was enough.
Di Qing directly led the team and rushed towards Fa and Ludin.
He deliberately asked the soldiers to expose Fa and Rudin, causing them to rush towards him.
"He's just defeated!"
"Back then, His Majesty personally went to war. In order to prevent the lives of Meng Yuan from being ruined, he left you in the country of Meng Yuan and made you surrender!"
"You don't remember the divine grace and are not grateful, but now you want to repay kindness with hatred and go south!"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has said that after today, there will be no more Meng Yuan!"
Fa and Ludin suddenly grinned and spit out blood.
He couldn't understand what the other party was saying, but he knew very well that he was going to die today.
"kill!"
Fa and Ludin's eyes became fierce, holding a long knife and killing Di Qing again.
Among the warriors on the grassland, there are always only those who die in battle, not those who surrender.
At the same time, Fa and Ludin lowered their bodies slightly, pinched the horse's belly with their legs, and urged the horse to charge, like a tiger leaping into a stream. The nine-foot-long sword held in both hands swung a semicircle in the air, slashing diagonally towards Di Qing. .
Di Qing also urged his horse to charge, holding a long spear in his hand. The red tassel danced like a swaying flame. The curved barrel of the spear stretched and straightened, and the tip of the spear collided with the blade.
Then, I saw Di Qing leaning back slightly and thrusting the gun head towards Fa and Ludin's face, but it was just a feint. In the next moment, he dragged the big gun with one hand, exerted force on his waist, and swept across.
Fa and Ludin quickly retracted their stomachs, but they still couldn't avoid it and were cut open.
Di Qing's eyes were sharp and cold, like an unsheathed sword.
"Good marksmanship!"
"What a force."
"hehe."
Fa and Rudin held a knife in one hand and a belt in the other, slightly covering the gash on their stomachs.
The two people couldn't speak to each other at all, but they could both see a little appreciation in each other's eyes.
This was Di Qing's first battle against Meng Yuan Wanhu, and he was also one of the few tough warriors he encountered.
As soon as he finished speaking, Di Qing pinched the belly of the war horse with his legs, twisted the gun with his waist, the base of the gun was like a rolling bean, and the eight-foot long spear circled around and stabbed Fa and Ludin between the eyebrows, like a spear piercing the clouds with its head raised. The angry dragon!
The body is like a bow, the spear is like an arrow!
The tip of the gun has not yet arrived, and there is already a dull pain between the eyebrows.
Fa and Ludin folded their wrists and dragged the long knife upwards at an angle.
"when!"
The sound of weapons clashing was so harsh that it made people feel uncomfortable.
The big gun in Di Qing's hand is a heavy weapon, weighing dozens of kilograms, and it is very taxing on the back and wrist to use.
Martial arts masters often say, "A moon stick, a sword, a spear, a lifetime." The older the martial arts masters use these weapons, the more skilled they become.
However, boxing is afraid of young people.
Guns, same thing.
Di Qing is now in his prime and very strong.
But, after all, Fa and Ludin are grassland people who grew up eating meat. With their physical talents, riding a war horse is a head taller than Di Qing, not to mention his size.
The bigger the body is, the stronger it will naturally be.
Of course, Fahe Rudin also trained since childhood, which made him very strong. The palms of his hands are very generous, and one hand is calloused.
Weapons clashed with each other!
The rotating spear head pressed down, blocking the path of the long knife's upward slash.
Di Qing twisted his waist and pulled back the barrel of the gun.
Fa and Rudin were also sheathing their swords.
At this time, the fight is about who is stronger, the fight is about who is not afraid of death, and the fight is about who is faster.
Fast, accurate and ruthless.
Fa and Rudin's whole body hit the head of the gun head-on in a suicidal manner, and the tip of the knife in his hand stabbed the opponent's head with all his might!
Swords and guns clashed.
Life for life!
But Di Qing obviously won't give Fa and Ludin such a chance. Long swords have their own advantages over longer spears.
A thick and thick one.
A flexible one.
Fa and Ludin only felt that several gun heads appeared in front of their eyes, and their eyes were dazzled and their hearts were also confused.
He widened his eyes, trying to see clearly Di Qing's move and where the opponent's spearhead was piercing his body. However, he found that the more he tried to see clearly, the less clearly he could see, and because of this And made his long knife slow down.
At this time,
From the corner of his eye, he saw the delicate and resolute face opposite him, showing a cruel smile of great pleasure.
When the spear head and the long knife collided, there was no unexpected violent collision.
It's a false move!
Di Qing turned his wrist, and the spear rotated a small half circle along the blade, sliding down two palms.
There was a flash of blood, and the big knife fell directly to the ground, accompanied by several fragments of fingers!
"puff!"
Good marksmanship.
Fa and Ludin were in disbelief, and the last thought flashed through their minds.
The Lord is about to die.
The guards naturally lost their backbone and fought blindly. However, they lost their formation and were immediately surrounded and killed by Di Qing and his guards.
"Plop!"
Faheludin's banner was cut off and fell to the ground.
Di Qing finally killed a Meng Yuan Wanhu.
The battlefield to the east ushered in a brief victory.
Looking upstairs.
After Meng Ge saw Fa and Ludin's banner fall, he stood up directly and overturned the table in front of him.
"Fa and Rudin!"
