Chapter 1027: The Three Heroes of the Late Song Dynasty
In the blink of an eye, it was May 19th, and the Battle of Yashan officially took place.
Because he couldn't figure out the context of the Battle of Yashan, Ouyang Shuo chose to use the Royal Fleet for the naval battle of the 100,000 troops, the only Imperial Guard's fourth infantry and cavalry mixed corps, and 3,000 Shenwuwei.
Compared with the First, Second, and Third Legions of the Janissary, which had experienced repeated bitter battles, in the Battle of Annan, the Fourth Legion of the Janissary followed Bai Qi to attack Hanoi. There were not many casualties in the process. Fight hard, the whole battle is over.
In addition, the fourth regiment of the imperial guards adopted a mixed formation of infantry and cavalry, which was more adaptable, so it was fortunate to be selected by Ouyang Shuo this time to go out to the battle map with him.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the system announcement sounded on time.
"System announcement: In 1279 A.D., the Mongolian Yuan army went south to destroy the Song Dynasty. After capturing Lin'an, the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, they continued to go south to wipe out the remaining resistance forces of the Southern Song Dynasty. The two sides fought a decisive battle in Yashan, ending with the complete demise of the Southern Song Dynasty. The Yashan Rebellion has officially begun!"
Detect the conditions for participating in the battle, designate the participating troops...
"System prompt: In the Battle of Yashan, the Alien Legion defaults to the Southern Song camp, no need to choose."
Ouyang Shuo was silent, already mentally prepared for this.
"System prompt: Teleportation begins!"
After a short period of dizziness, Ouyang Shuo and his party appeared on the battlefield.
"System prompt: Welcome to the player Qiyue Wuyi coming to the headquarters of the Southern Song Dynasty - Lin'an."
"Lin'an?!"
Ouyang Shuo was stunned for a moment, how could it be Lin'an, Lin'an had already fallen during the Battle of Yashan, what exactly did Gaia deduce this battle into.
Soon, Ouyang Shuo had the answer.
At this moment, a battle announcement sounded.
"Battle Announcement: The Battle of Yashan is a time-limited battle to defend the city, which has nothing to do with real history. The alien troops need to defend Lin'an for a month under the attack of the Mongolian army, and it will be judged as a victory in the battle, and they can get rich rewards. If Lin'an loses, it will be judged as a battle. Fail, cancel all campaign contribution points."
"Enough!"
Gaia is trying to force these lords to a dead end. They are only allowed to win, not to lose.
Once it fails, not to mention that there is no reward, even a little battle contribution value, the soldiers who died on the battle map will naturally not be able to be resurrected.
What made Ouyang Shuo even more depressed was that since it was a time-limited defense of the city, the Royal Fleet he brought would be a waste of time, and he could only stay in the nearby waters to play soy sauce.
Ouyang Shuo temporarily suppressed his thoughts, looked around, and found that they did not appear in the military camp outside the city like in the previous battle, but directly in Lin'an City.
Does it mean that the Mongolian army is already approaching the city?
Historically, Lin'an surrendered without a fight.
"Battle Announcement: A total of six lords participated in the Battle of Yashan, with a total force of 400,000. According to the test results of titles and merits, the representative of the Southern Song camp is Qiyue Wuyi, Wang Jue."
...
Because there is only one faction, [Shanhai League] and [Yanhuang League] will fight side by side this time. In terms of troops, Ouyang Shuo and Di Chen each led an army of 100,000, Feng Prison Huang, Jun Shenjun, Xiongba, and Zhan Lang each led an army of 50,000. In terms of strength, [Yanhuang League] still has the upper hand.
Fortunately, Ouyang Shuo was still the representative of a different person, and had the upper hand.
Compared with the Anshi Rebellion not long ago, the lords who participated in the battle were less Shapojun and Piaolinghuan, and seemed even more deserted. If nothing else, there may be only two or three lords left in the next battle.
The tempering effect of the battle on the lord is rapidly weakening, and the greater significance is that the battle leads to each dynasty, speeds up the historical process, and completes the layout of the entire historical territory.
The two sides in the Battle of Yashan, one is the Southern Song Dynasty, and the other is the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty. It is not known whether Gaia will join the Yuan Dynasty into the history of the wilderness after the battle is over.
In other words, the Yuan Dynasty will be reintroduced in the next battle.
If it is the previous one, then only the Ming and Qing dynasties are left in the battles in China, and it is just one less after the other, and it seems that the history of 5,000 years will be completed once.
…………
When registering, Ouyang Shuo saw Dichen and his party.
In the battle of Western Chu that just ended, Ouyang Shuo cheated [Yanhuang League] twice in a row, Dichen now hates Ouyang Shuo to the bone.
As the saying goes: when enemies meet, they are extremely jealous.
Even though they were in the same camp, Di Chen didn't show any good looks.
Seeing that Di Chen and the others had a bad look on their faces, Feng Prison Huang walked over and stood silently behind Ouyang Shuo. Although the [Yan Huang League] army was 100,000 more than them, Feng Prison Huang was not afraid.
The one who followed Feng Qiuhuang was none other than Guo Ziyi, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty.
Invisibly, the two groups of people faced each other silently, and the atmosphere at the scene was a bit dull. Ouyang Shuo didn't intend to engage in a verbal dispute here, and was about to leave when Xiongba suddenly said, "Brother Ouyang, don't come here and be safe."
How can I say that we have to fight side by side this time, Xiong Ba is quite pragmatic as a generation of heroes, and he doesn't want the relationship between the two sides to be so rigid, which will affect the next battle.
What's more, Ouyang Shuo is still a representative of a different person, if there is no news from Ouyang Shuo, [Yanhuang League] will become more difficult in this battle.
Like Great Xia, Handan City, Chixue City, and Overlord City all brought some sailors over this time, but they were all useless.
Before the battle started, the Southern Song camp directly "killed" more than 60,000 alien troops.
The more so, the more we need to cooperate.
Seeing this, Ouyang Shuo clasped his fists together and greeted Xiongba. He also didn't want to engage in any "infighting" on the battle map, that would be too out of style.
Seeing this, Xiong Ba's smile grew wider, obviously very happy that Ouyang Shuo sold his face, and deliberately joked: "Brother Ouyang is not kind, he picked peaches in Xichu, and even abducted the beautiful Yuji!"
This is the brilliance of Xiongba.
The Battle of Western Chu was the sticking point for both sides. Xiong Ba took the initiative to bring it up, not to expose Dichen's scars, but to let it go lightly and turn the matter over, which would not only affect the cooperation between the two sides.
If you don't mention it on purpose, it shows that you are very concerned about it.
Seeing this, Ouyang Shuo glanced at Xiongba appreciatively, and finally showed a smile on his face, "That can't be helped, who said that Da Xia is Yu Ji's natal family."
After hearing this, Di Chen and the others were speechless. They had never seen such a rascal. Even if they wanted to find a reason, they would trouble them to find someone more reliable. "What natal family? It's pure nonsense!"
Fortunately, with Xiong Ba's joke, the relationship between the two parties finally broke the ice. Di Chen and the others no longer put on a dead face, and greeted Ouyang Shuo and Feng Qiuhuang with a relaxed expression.
Of course, that's all there is to it.
It is impossible for the two sides to cooperate sincerely, not to mention the battle map, even the national war in June, [Yanhuang League] would not be able to let Ouyang Shuo, the "leader of the national war", arrange it at will.
The best case is to fight all the way.
Ouyang Shuo didn't want to stay for a long time, so he said to Xiongba, "The situation is unclear at the moment, after I have met the emperor of the Song Dynasty and figured out the situation, I will invite brother Xiongba to come to the shabby house to discuss how to defend the city together."
"It's better to obey than to respect!"
Xiongba is overjoyed, isn't that what he said after going around and around.
…………
The place where the Alien Legion descended was originally just a small barracks in the west of Lin'an City, which was one of the garrisons of the Imperial Army in the Southern Song Dynasty. After Gaia handled it, it became a super barracks that could accommodate 400,000 to 500,000 troops.
After setting up the troops, Ouyang Shuo led his personal guards, led by a Southern Song soldier from the barracks, to the palace to meet the Southern Song emperor.
In history, Song Emperor Zhao Xian was in charge of Lin'an, but when Ouyang Shuo inquired about it, he realized that Gaia had pushed back the history as a whole, and it was completely different from the real history.
Now sitting in Lin'an is Zhao Bing, the last emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, who was only eight years old and jumped into the sea on the back of Prime Minister Lu Xiufu during the Battle of Yashan.
Assisting Zhao Bing were the well-known "Three Heroes of the Late Song Dynasty", Lu Xiufu, Zhang Shijie and Wen Tianxiang. In addition, there are 100,000 Song troops stationed in Lin'an City, which is also the last military force of the Southern Song Dynasty.
Looking at it this way, defending the city does not seem to be difficult.
But Ouyang Shuo didn't dare to take it lightly. Since the defenders had changed, the siege troops must also be different. Gaia couldn't let them complete the task easily.
The Imperial Palace, Qinzheng Palace.
"Would a stranger be without clothes? Meet Your Majesty!"
Led by an eunuch, Ouyang Shuo finally met Zhao Bing. The eight-year-old little emperor tried his best to put on a "majestic" appearance, but his eyes showed timidity and uneasiness unconsciously.
Especially in front of Ouyang Shuo, the real emperor, Zhao Bing was a little at a loss.
Obviously, it is impossible to rely on this little emperor to make up his mind. In the current Lin'an City, the three masters in the late Song Dynasty are the real masters.
Among the three masters, Lu Xiufu is a civil servant, Zhang Shijie and Wen Tianxiang are generals. In the battle of Yashan in history, the encounters of the three were also different.
Needless to say, Lu Xiufu was defeated in Yashan. After driving his wife and children into the sea, he carried the little emperor on his back and died at the sea. He was only forty-four years old.
In the Battle of Yashan, Zhang Shijie, the general of Qingtian in the Southern Song Dynasty, at the last moment, led his troops out of the siege with the thought of "keeping the green hills there, not afraid of no firewood", but encountered a storm on the way, and unfortunately drowned in a heavy storm. Death.
The saddest one is Wen Tianxiang.
Before the Battle of Yashan, Wen Tianxiang was defeated and captured. He was escorted to Yashan by Zhang Hongfan, the general of the Mongolian army, and asked Wen Tianxiang to write a letter to recruit Zhang Shijie.
On the Mongolian warship, Wen Tianxiang saw the tragic scene of the Song army being defeated by the Yuan army, and his heart was like a knife.
It was at that time that Wen Tianxiang wrote the famous "Crossing the Lingding Ocean".
After a hard encounter, there are few stars around.
The mountains and rivers are broken and the wind is blowing, and the life experience is ups and downs and the rain beats the flats.
Anxious beachheads say fear, and sigh alone in the ocean.
Since ancient times, who has never died? Keep the loyal heart to reflect the history.
After the Battle of Yashan, Wen Tianxiang was escorted to Yanjing. Kublai Khan failed to persuade him to surrender many times, and finally died generously at the age of forty-seven.
Wen Tianxiang left such a last word in his belt: "Confucius said to be benevolent, Mencius said to take righteousness, but only when his righteousness is exhausted, so benevolence is the best. Read the books of sages, what have you learned, now and now, you will have nothing to be ashamed of."
Looking at the three heroes of the late Song Dynasty standing under the court hall, Ouyang Shuo was full of emotion.
