Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

"This is Lake Behar!" In the barracks, Zhao Chen, Qu Duan, Li Xianzhong and others were together, and Qu Duan pointed at the map at this moment.

Lake Baikal is the Lake Baikal of later generations, and this era is called Lake Baikal!

"Every autumn, a large number of Mongols gather here! Many tribes hold autumn sacrifices here, thanking the longevity god! This is their custom and tradition! The military intelligence office has been investigating the grassland for several years. Almost more than half of the grassland tribes will go here! The military is preparing to use 400,000 cavalry to encircle and wipe out the Mongols here! It can be said that this is another national war! All the cavalry in the north will be dispatched!" Qu Duan said .

"The 400,000 cavalry come from the four armies, and they need to cooperate well with each other! The Government Affairs Council and the military have decided to set up a cavalry joint command in the north to command this battle and deploy the various armies. Yue Fei will be the commander. Li Xianzhong, you, Liu Qi, and Han Shizhong are the deputy commanders, and you are in charge of the specific battle! I mainly came to see how the armaments in various places are! Over the years, half of the soldiers in the army are recruits. I don’t know if I can participate in this time Combat mission." Zhao Chen said.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, we will never let you down!" Li Xianzhong said.

"Very good, I will rest for the night first, and I will inspect the army tomorrow morning!" Zhao Chen said.

In the early morning of the second day, when the sky was slightly bright, more than 100,000 troops had already assembled.

Following Zhao Chen's order, the sound of galloping horses sounded, and all the cavalry galloped towards the north!

The riding skills of the soldiers are extremely high! Since they entered the army, they have been training hard every day!

Zhao Chen first watched the basic riding skills of the soldiers, and in the afternoon, the large-scale exercise began!

The army of more than 100,000 was divided into two parts, and they fought against each other on the vast grassland ahead!

The exercise lasted a full ten days. During these ten days, Zhao Chen followed the army, he kept observing, and the staff of the army also kept observing, and at the same time made judgments on the fighting power of the army!

"Your Majesty, although a large number of recruits have joined the army, the combat effectiveness of our army has not declined much! The recruits do not have enough combat experience, but years of hard training can make up for the lack of experience! Moreover, there are still a large number of recruits in our army. Veterans exist as core personnel, and in real wars, veterans can lead recruits to fight, so that recruits can gradually mature in the war! These recruits just need to experience the baptism of war!" The judgment made by General Qu Duan's staff was reported to Zhao Chen.

"About this cavalry joint command, you should also participate in it! After this battle is over, you have to give me a report. If there is another war in the future, a similar joint command may be established to unify the command! " Zhao Chen said.

"The last general takes orders." Qu Duan nodded and said.

"I want to go to the north to meet the Mongols." Zhao Chen thought for a while and said again.

"This...Your Majesty, going north to Beijing is very dangerous." Qu Duan said.

"With so many troops here, what do I have to be afraid of?" Zhao Chen laughed.

On the third day of April, Zhao Chen and Li Xianzhong led 10,000 fine cavalry all the way to the north.

On April 13th, Zhao Chen, Li Xianzhong and others came to the city of Zhenzhou!

Zhenzhou is located in the area around Ulaanbaatar, the Mongolian country of later generations. This era belongs to the Khitan people! The Great Song Dynasty inherited the land and population of the Liao Kingdom. It stands to reason that this place also belongs to the Great Song Dynasty, but now it is actually an empty city! After the Song Dynasty unified the north, it has not had time to return here.

"Zhenzhou, in the 22nd year of the unification of the Liao Kingdom, was built by Empress Dowager Xiao, and it was the seat of the recruiting office in the northwest of the Liao Kingdom. After that, Yelu Dashi went north and stayed here. This Zhenzhou has a history of more than 200 years. !" The army was guarding all around, and Zhao Chen and Li Xianzhong led more than ten guards to walk along the city wall of Zhenzhou City.

The city walls here are very dilapidated, and one of the gates of the Zhenzhou city in front has also fallen off. Seeing such a scene, Zhao Chen couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

At this moment, more than a hundred riders rushed out of the Zhenzhou city gate! These people are all dressed in standard Mongolian clothes. I didn't expect that there are still Mongolians in Zhenzhou City!

"Be careful, Your Majesty!" Li Xianzhong said in surprise.

"Kill them all!" Zhao Chen sneered.

He rode forward vigorously, Li Xianzhong and others hurriedly followed! With a shout, Li Xianzhong rushed to the front, and the dozen or so guards also rushed up!

These more than ten people had already met the Mongols, almost a rendezvous, and their opponents immediately fell to the ground! They all held iron guns in their hands. At this moment, the iron guns were flying, and none of the Mongols in front of them could block their every move! These more than ten people are all warriors carefully selected by the army, specially used to protect Zhao Chen's safety, and each of them is a master of the innate realm! After Zhao Chen ruled the Great Song Dynasty, he continued to continue his military operations. Over the years, more and more martial arts masters have joined the army, eager to make contributions!

More than a hundred Mongols did not expect that the Song army here was so powerful. After a while, they fled in all directions, and the surrounding Song army had already pressed up at this moment!

After a quarter of an hour, all the Mongols were subdued, and three Mongolian nobles who were dressed a little differently from other Mongols were escorted to Zhao Chen.

"Can you speak Chinese?" Zhao Chen asked.

"I will say." A handsome Mongolian youth who looked only in his twenties said in a strange tone.

"Very good! Tell me, why did you attack us!" Zhao Chen said.

"Looking at your attire, you should be a person of high status among the Han people. If we catch you, we can exchange it for property!" The young man snorted coldly and said.

"You Mongols go south to invade us every winter, why?" Zhao Chen asked.

"If you have money, we will naturally rob you! Isn't this a matter of course?" the Mongolian youth said.

"It really is a rascal! For you Mongolian rascals, I have endured to the extreme! Come on, pull it down, and chop it up!" Zhao Chen said with a sneer.

Immediately, the Song army pulled these Mongols down, but even when they were dying, these Mongols did not beg for mercy.

"Your Majesty, these Mongols have always been like this. They always think that it is only right and proper to rob us." Li Xianzhong said.

"Pass down the order, and the whole army will train hard. When autumn comes, we will completely eliminate these Mongolian bandits and completely eliminate the northern border trouble!" Zhao Chen said.

"The final general will obey the order!" Li Xianzhong said immediately.

Zhao Chen, Li Xianzhong and others stayed here for more than ten days, observing the situation of the Mongolians in various places, and then they returned to the south again, and Zhao Chen went to the Yuefei Army in Liaodong not long after to inspect Yuefei's army.

From leaving Yanjing on February 20, Zhao Chen did not return to Yanjing City until the end of May. During the three months, the important affairs of the Government Affairs Council and the thirty-six provinces were still sent to Zhao Chen, but Zhao Chen Chen did not make any instructions, but the court was still operating normally, and there was no turmoil in the world! After years of development, the national system has basically stabilized, which made Zhao Chen very pleased.

*** ***

The eighth month of the lunar calendar has arrived, and in Lake Baikal in the far north, Mongolian tribes have arrived one after another!

Lake Baikal is the largest freshwater lake and the deepest freshwater lake in the world. Its freshwater storage capacity has reached 20% of the world's freshwater storage capacity, which is enough for the seven billion people in the world to use for half a century. ! However, in later generations, this place has nothing to do with China, it already belongs to Russia.

In the Han Dynasty, it was called "Beihai" by the Chinese, and it was under the control of the Huns at that time!

When Su Wu went to the Xiongnu as an envoy, it looked like he was in the Beihai area.

During the Eastern Han and Western Jin Dynasties, it was controlled by Xianbei people, and it was also called Beihai at that time.

During the Tang Dynasty, it was controlled by the Turks, and until now, it has become a holy place for the Mongols.

Autumn is high and crisp, and more and more Mongolian tribes come here!

By mid-August, the number of Mongolians who came here had exceeded 700,000, and there were still more Mongolians coming!

The area of ​​Lake Baikal is much larger than that of Taiwan Island, and its surroundings are enough to accommodate more people.

Dozens of large and small Mongolian tribal leaders gathered together to discuss the matter of going south to invade the Song Dynasty this winter! Speaking of joy, these tribal leaders couldn't help laughing.

They didn't know that 400,000 Song troops had arrived one after another, and they had already launched a "hunting" operation against the Mongols! Hunting is the military code name of the Song Army this time!

Beginning in mid-August, some Mongolian tribes and rangers on the outskirts first encountered the Song Army's attack, and then the Song Army continued to press in!

The Mongols gradually felt something was wrong!

On September 13th, in the north, Yue Fei's 100,000 elite cavalry encountered dozens of Mongolian tribal coalition forces. The war lasted for nearly a day. Liu Kai came from the east and the Mongolian coalition forces were defeated!

On September 15th, in the southwest direction, the two armies of Han Shizhong and Li Xianzhong suddenly launched an attack on another group of Mongolian tribal troops who were gathering here, and the Mongols were defeated again!

In the next half a month, within hundreds of miles around Lake Baikal, the Song Army and the Mongols fought more than ten battles with a force of more than 100,000!

The command system of the Song Army is extremely efficient. Often after a battle breaks out in a certain place, the surrounding Song Army immediately provides assistance! The Mongols fought separately from each tribe! With a modern military system against the loose and primitive combat system of the Mongols, the outcome of the war can be imagined! Moreover, the weapons of the Song Army are far better than those of the Mongols! The Song army all had exquisite crossbows with barbed arrows, while many Mongols still used bone arrows! The Song army is all light cavalry, but everyone wears iron helmets to protect their heads. The Mongols don't have any armor at all! The 400,000 soldiers of the Song Army are all young and strong soldiers who are good at riding and shooting, while the Mongols are old and weak, women and children!

In more than ten battles, the Mongols were completely defeated!

Come October, the "hunting" is still going on!

The Song army continued to encircle and suppress in units of troops and divisions. The sound of shouts and bows and arrows continued to be heard on the grassland. The entire grassland was full of corpses, and there were Mongolian corpses everywhere!

This powerful northern barbarian suffered a devastating blow. Afterwards, the Song Army counted the battlefield, and the corpses of the Mongols beside Lake Baikal exceeded 500,000! Many of them were old people and children. During the war, these old people and children also fought back strongly. The Song army did not show any mercy. In the end, as long as they were Mongols, they would be besieged.

The first snow fell on the grassland, and the 400,000 Song cavalry did not stop fighting. They were still hunting north and west...
