King Jinlun was extremely depressed, and after coming to the Central Plains, he suffered two setbacks in a short period of time, both because of Lin Yuanjian.In his heart, he already had a huge shadow on Lin Yuanjian.It was so big that as long as Lin Yuanjian appeared in front of him, he would feel depressed.Lin Yuanjian is really too strong, so strong that it makes people desperate.King Jinlun can only comfort himself in this way, no matter how strong he is, he is just one person, and he can't change the situation, but the prince of Kublai Khan brought seventy or eighty thousand elite Mongolian iron horsemen this time, in order to capture Xiangyang in one go, and then invade the Song State in a big way.With so many soldiers and horses, how can one person stop them?
Even if seventy or eighty thousand pigs stood there and killed him, it would be enough to kill until he was exhausted.It's a pity that the Golden Wheel King miscalculated, he still looked at Lin Yuanjian from the eyes of a mortal, but he didn't know that Lin Yuanjian's current ability was no longer what he could imagine as a mortal.After returning to the Mongolian military camp from Dasheng Pass, he rushed back impatiently, so he did not know about the burning of grain and grass.Now the entire Mongolian military camp is in chaos, and all the grain and grass have been destroyed, which is simply a heavy blow.Seventy or eighty thousand people, tens of thousands of horses, had to consume a lot of grain and forage every day, but now all the grain and grass were burned, and once the worst came, Kublai Khan had to retreat.They are coming in a surge this time, and if they retreat, it will greatly affect their morale, and they don't know when they want to make a comeback next time.Giving the Song State a chance to breathe was obviously not what Kublai Khan was willing to see.When the King of the Golden Wheel returned to the barracks, he felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly rushed to the Chinese army's tent.In the big tent, Kublai Khan was discussing something with seven or eight generals, and the atmosphere was very heavy."
Lord Wang, what happened?"
The King of the Golden Wheel strode into the account."
National Teacher!"
Kublai Khan's face was extremely pale: "Our grain and grass have been burned, and there is nothing left, nothing left." ”Speaking of the back, he roared directly, slamming his fist against the table hard, and his nose was almost crooked, which shows how angry he is."
What?"
The King of the Golden Wheel stumbled and almost sat on the ground, this news is really bad, too bad, too exciting.How can good grain and grass be burned?
Nothing left?
That's eight granaries!
Could it be that the soldiers of the whole battalion are watching the play by the fire?
How did you do it with nothing left?
Not really, right?
What the is going on?
Seven or eight senior generals in the army didn't even dare to breathe through the atmosphere, obviously they had been scolded fiercely just now, and now the prince was angry again, who dared to squeak."
Lord Wang, what the hell is going on?
Did someone from the Song Kingdom do it?
”The King of the Golden Wheel had a big head for a while, and not long after he left, such a big thing happened."
Except for those Song dogs, who else would do such a thing?"
Kublai Khan pointed at a group of generals and scolded: "You waste, what use does this king want from you?"
How did you get people to sneak in and set fire to the barracks, and the granaries were heavily guarded?
Are you all wine bags and rice bags?
”"Forget it, you don't even have the ability to extinguish the fire, so that this king can watch so much grain and grass burned clean!
If it weren't for the need for you to fight for this king, this king would have cut off your heads right now. ”Kublai Khan was furious, roaring like an angry lion, and his roar was heard throughout the tent."
Lord Wang, this matter is really strange, I went to see it when I put out the fire, and the soldiers splashed buckets of water on the ground, but they couldn't reduce the fire even a little, which is really weird."
Yin Kexi whispered to the side.Xiao Xiangzi also said: "The eight granaries are on fire at the same time, which means that the other party is prepared, and the person who does it must be a peerless master, otherwise it is impossible to retreat so quickly." ”The simple-minded Ma Guangzuo sneered: "Jinlun, you are very idle, our grain and grass have been burned, and you still have to arrest Guo Jing's daughter, and I haven't seen you arrest people back." ”The King of Jinlun ignored him and said to Kublai Khan: "Lord, the top priority is to collect grain and grass as soon as possible, in case the army runs out of food, our plan to invade the south this time may be in vain." ”Kublai Khan's expression softened a little, after all, he was a man of great talent, and he was not carried away by the anger of the moment: "The national teacher is reasonable, before deciding to invade the south, this king was ready to fight a protracted war, so the supply of grain and grass in the rear has never been interrupted, and every short time, a batch of grain and grass will be transported."
Counting the days, in two days, a batch of grain and grass will arrive, enough for us to support for a while.The king has sent scouts on fast horses to find out where the grain and grass have arrived, and it is believed that news will come back soon.We only need to hold on for another day or two, and when the grain and grass arrive, the dilemma will be solved. ”Seeing that Kublai Khan's anger was gone, those generals breathed a sigh of relief.One of the generals said with a bitter face: "There are so many of us who need to eat every day, and now there is no food left, even if it is two days, I am afraid that it will be difficult to hold on." ”"The nearby towns and villages have long been looted by us."
Kublai Khan gritted his teeth: "If it really doesn't work, then kill some of the war horses to eat to solve the urgent need." ”"What?
Rajah?
Kill the horses?
”The faces of all the generals have changed, the most elite and powerful type of the Mongolian army is cavalry, and the 80,000 people who went south this time are all cavalry.What is the difference between killing a war horse and stabbing yourself with a knife?
Self-weakening strength?"
Lord, this is absolutely unacceptable.""
Our sons can eat horses to satisfy their hunger, so what do tens of thousands of horses eat?"
Kublai Khan said helplessly: "This king doesn't want to make such a decision, but can you think of a better way?"
”All the generals were silent, and the King of the Golden Wheel, Yin Kexi and others were also silent.In this situation, there is indeed no better way.Then the horses can only be killed first to satisfy their hunger, as for the other horses can only be hungry first, because there is really no way to find enough forage for them in a short time, and they will not starve to death after two days of starvation anyway.But people have to eat, and if these soldiers are hungry for two days, they still have the fighting power of a fart."
Report!"
Kublai Khan said, "Come in." ”"Report to the prince, according to the news from the scouts, the grain and grass in the rear have arrived at the mouth of the old river, and they can be arrived in two days at most.""
Hahaha, okay, great."
Kublai Khan was very happy: "The king's order is passed on, and it is said that there is a shortage of grain and grass ahead, so let the grain be fastened, and the faster the grain and grass arrive, the better." ”Midnight!
