Ranking Pass History: Inventory of the Top Ten Great Players in History

Quan Zi suddenly realized, "I understand, General Meng is worried that after these savages join us, they will launch a rebellion like Hou Jing. That will definitely cause bloodshed in the south of the Yangtze River. General Meng takes precautions before they happen, and Quan admires them .”

Seeing Quan Zi looking at him with adoring eyes, Meng Gong secretly smiled wryly,

"You understand? I don't understand it myself. Anyway, I can't figure out why the officials want [-] heads of the Mongolian army. The Han army doesn't count, as long as the heads of the pure Mongolians and the Tanma Red Army.

If I fail to complete this task, my official career will be over.

So I can only bite the bullet and kill surrender. "

The war is over, but there are still many things to be busy with.

Meng Gong asked the soldiers with night blindness to support each other and rushed back to Luoyang City, and at the same time asked the soldiers without night blindness to clean up the battlefield, stripped the armor of the Mongols and the Tanma Red Army, and put them on those who were not injured or only slightly injured. On the back of his war horse, he also rushed to Luoyang City.

In this battle, Meng Gong got nearly [-] top-quality Mongolian horses, which can be said to have made a fortune.

He can use these Mongolian horses to train thousands of cavalry again.

Then Meng Gong repeated the old trick and ordered the soldiers to chop off the heads of the Tanma Red Army and the Mongols, and piled them into two hill-like Jingguan.

And put the heads of Tachar and Tosnov on the top respectively.

After finishing all these chores, it was late at night.Meng Gong hung Tachar's diamond-encrusted sword on his waist, and said loudly,
"Brothers, go back to Luoyang City to sleep."

General Subotai rushed to the shore of Luoshui at the fastest speed, but was still a step behind.What appeared in front of his eyes were two piles of Jingguan as high as hills, and the heads of Tachar and Tosnov at the top of the Jingguan.

With a long sigh, Subotai ordered people to take off Tacha'er's head, then found Tacha'er's body, sewed it together, and then rushed back to the north bank of the Yellow River with a team of ten thousand people.

Although most of the generals under his command clamored to capture Luoyang City, wipe out the Song army inside, and avenge Tachaer, they were all suppressed by Su Butai.

Subotai looked at Luoyang City, which was close at hand, and said coldly,
"According to the combat capabilities of the Song Army, they can wipe out Tachar and Tosnov's Tanma Red Army in one day, with at least 5 to [-] people. What's more, they also have a large cavalry army. If our army attacks Luoyang City , even if we can annihilate them all, how many people do you think we will die? Seven thousand? Or eight thousand?
The life of my Mongolian boy is very precious, but he cannot die in unnecessary siege battles.

They killed Tachar's revenge, we just keep it in our hearts.

When the autumn is clear, we will lead another [-] Mongolian elite soldiers to march south, kill millions of Song people, and avenge Tachaer. Wouldn't it be better than dying with the Song people! "

The Mongols were persuaded by Tachar, and they nodded in agreement.

Meng Gong stayed in Luoyang City for a few days, and when he learned that Subutai had retreated to the north bank of the Yellow River, he would neither attack Luoyang nor Bianliang City where [-] troops were stationed, so he sighed loudly,
"This Subotai is really a powerful character. He really understands the essence of nomadic warfare. It seems that this winter, there will be a few tough battles."

As Subotai retreated to the north bank of the Yellow River, Zhang Rou and Liu Fu, who commanded tens of thousands of surrendered soldiers from the Kingdom of Jin, also retreated to Caozhou on Jingdong Road instead of confronting Song soldiers.

The entire Henan area was included in the territory of the Southern Song Dynasty.

At the beginning of August in the first year of Duanping, Meng Gong joined forces with Quan Zicai Xu Minzhi to destroy the five thousand cavalry of the Mongolian general Liu Heng'an in Longmen Town, and then fought in Beishui on the south bank of Luoshui River, beheading ten thousand Mongolian households. , Mu Huali's grandson Tachar.

Mongolian Wanhu Subutai led a team of [-] people to return to Yanyun.

The Song army marched from Huaixi, and took all the three capitals in less than three months!

Not only regained the Guide Mansion in Nanjing, the Bianliang Mansion in Tokyo, and the Luoyang Mansion in Xijing, but also took Tongguan, and finally could adopt the strategy of guarding the river to confront the Mongols along the Yellow River.

The news of the acquisition of Sanjing spread to Jiangnan, and the people in Jiangnan were completely overwhelmed.

Because the Southern Song Dynasty moved the battle line to the north by about a thousand miles, the people along the Yangtze River no longer worried about the Mongolian cavalry looting urban and rural areas.

In the Lin'an court hall, it was a different scene.

Chen Sheng couldn't help being overjoyed when he learned that Meng Gong and others successfully defeated the Mongols and took all the three capitals.

Especially when he knew that Meng Gong had already beheaded [-] Tanma Red Army soldiers and [-] Mongolian cavalrymen, he couldn't control his inner excitement.

Next, Song Meng will have a large-scale battle.

It should be no problem to chop off the heads of thousands of Mongolian cavalrymen.

This time, he wants to take the top spot in this dungeon.

Chen Sheng issued a decree in the court hall, sealing Meng Gong as "Marquis of Polu" and staying in Bianjing, sealing Quan Zicai as "Marquis of Dinghu" and staying in Luoyang, and sealing Xu Minzhi as "Marquis of Dingbei" and staying in Germany stay behind.

As for Zhao Kui, who was greedy for meritorious service, Chen Sheng did not punish him too harshly, but demoted him two ranks, and sent him to Changzhou as the magistrate.

Chen Sheng is not very good at fighting, but he is a smart man.

When he saw the copy introducing the famous generals at the end of the Song Dynasty, he named five people in a row, none of whom was Zhao Kui, so he immediately understood that Zhao Kui was useless.

What surprised Chen Sheng was that his rewards for the soldiers of the Northern Expedition actually aroused opposition from the civil servants of the Manchu Dynasty.

Qiao Xingjian, a political adviser, stepped forward and said proudly,
"Officials, collecting Sanjing sounds like a big deal, but in fact it's because the Mongols couldn't bear the heat, so they all retreated to Yanyun.

Once the Mongols march southward, how will our army respond?
The whole of Henan has been deserted and there is nowhere to raise food. How can our army stick to the three capitals for a long time?
According to my ministers, the actions of Meng Gong and others will only anger Mongolia and make Mongolia aggressively conquer our dynasty.Therefore, not only can they not be rewarded, but they must be punished to appease the Mongolian Khan. "

Chen Sheng looked at Qiao Xingjian with the eyes of an idiot, wondering why this guy could say that he wanted to punish the meritorious soldiers.

This is the ignorance of Chen Sheng, the anti-king at the end of Qin Dynasty.

In the history of the Song Dynasty for more than 300 years, because of the perverted emphasis on civil affairs and despise military affairs, if a general loses a battle, he may still keep his official position. Once a general wins a battle, he will be attacked by civil officials. The military general who has been peeled off a layer of skin will also be transferred from the front line to the inland as an idle official.

Anyway, the civilian group will never allow any general to make continuous contributions.

This is why Qiao Xingjian said the words to punish Meng Gongquan Zicai, but no one in the ranks of military officers dared to speak out.

These military officers all know that this is the ancestral system of the Song Dynasty, and this is the foundation of the Song Dynasty.

Thinking back to the time when Di Qingping defeated Nong Zhigao's rebellion and made great achievements, after returning to Beijing, not only did he not receive any rewards, he was also attacked by civil officials for more than a year, and finally had to ask himself to be transferred to Chenzhou.

Even so, the civil official group did not let him go, and forced to death this rare good general in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Although Chen Sheng rebelled against the Qin Dynasty, he basically followed the Qin Dynasty's legal system in commanding troops and employing people.

Civilian officials manage politics, and military officials fight generals.Those who have meritorious service will be rewarded, and those who are guilty will be punished.

Let professional people do professional things, and let experts lead experts.

He scoffed at the bureaucratic system of the Song Dynasty that allowed laymen to lead experts.
