Siheyuan: a game system with you

Chapter 119. 117. Leading the Northern Expedition
Guo Fu said convincingly: "Da Wu just misunderstood that Li Yongxuan had defected to the Mongols, just apologize to him. Is it necessary to force Da Wu to commit suicide? Isn't he just a deputy leader of the martial arts, what's so great about it?"

In the original play, she cut off Yang Guo's arm and met again, but she still didn't know how to repent.

Guo Jing took a deep breath: "Li Yongxuan, it's really nothing special, but he captured Kublai Khan, saved Xiangyang City from a war, and saved countless soldiers and civilians from surviving, then I want to ask you, you What's the big deal? What have you done for this country, this nation, this city, this family?"

Originally he was in a good mood, but Li Yongxuan captured Kublai Khan and forced the Mongolian army to retreat. He also got [-] shi of grain and [-] sets of equipment.

But as soon as Guo Jing returned to Xiangyang, he felt a little bad all over.

The Wu brothers first spread rumors to slander Li Yongxuan for defecting to the Mongols, and then they went to a duel for jealousy. Wu Dunru even lost his life for this. Guo Jing is the master of the Wu brothers, how could he be indifferent?
What she said made Guo Fu feel ashamed, and she ran back to her room crying and crying with great aggrievedness.

She really hasn't done anything these years.

Huang Rong wanted to persuade her, but Guo Jing stopped her with her hand: "Let her go! If you don't teach me, I don't know what trouble I've caused!"

They all loved Guo Fu very much, and gradually developed her spoiled and domineering temperament.

The next day, Guo Jing and Huang Rong found out that Yang Guo had left to find his master.

Not long after, Huang Rong gave birth to a son and a daughter. The daughter was named Guo Xiang, and the son was named Guo Polu.

After helping to take care of Wu Dunru's funeral, Guo Jing handed over his apprentice Wu Xiuwen to Zhu Ziliu to discipline him on the grounds that he was busy with military affairs.

Wu Xiuwen was even more desperate when he knew that his master Guo Jing had given up on him.

He is notorious in Xiangyang, and he has no chance to get close to Guo Fu, and now even his master and mother are unwilling to care about him.

Li Yongxuan heard about this and didn't care.

At dawn, he returned to Jincheng by boat with food, grass and equipment.

Three days later, Li Yongxuan finally returned to Jincheng, and the news about Xiangyang's victory had already spread widely.

Within a few days of his arrival in Jincheng, an imperial envoy from Lin'an came over.

Due to Li Yongxuan's meritorious service in defeating the enemy, he was promoted to be the envoy of the Jincheng Road System, and ordered to send troops to recover all parts of Xichuan.

It's a pity that rewarding meritorious deeds is not the goal of Song Emperor Zhao Yun. His goal is to let Li Yongxuan recover the entire Sichuan and Chongqing, and then take the peaches away with him.

Before Li Yongxuan arrived in Jincheng, Zhao Yun had already found someone to serve as a pacifier in Jincheng, trying to divide Li Yongxuan's power.

After all, Li Yongxuan's appointment as the magistrate of Jincheng was just an expedient measure for Zhao Yun.

Unexpectedly, in half a year, Li Yongxuan transformed Jincheng from an abandoned city into a vibrant and completely new one.

It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice, thanks to Li Yongxuan's looted property from Lin'an and a series of lures.

Without a large amount of money and food, throwing out fields and the scriptures of the Nine Yins, how could there be so many people pouring into Jincheng from all over the place?
On the surface, Zhao Yun promoted Li Yongxuan to an official position, giving him more authority and more territory.

In fact, those places are all within the sphere of influence of the Mongols, and even if they are taken back and rebuilt, it will be very difficult.

Li Yongxuan didn't complain, just let it go.

He has long since stopped having any expectations for the decadent Song court, let alone surrendering the forces he had built up with great difficulty.

Now Jincheng is full of Li Yongxuan's people. If Emperor Song can send any official to take over, then Li Yongxuan doesn't have to do it. It's better to stay where it is cool.

After receiving the appointment of the system envoy, Li Yongxuan received another system prompt: You have obtained the [Forging] skill!
In the past two years, he has been thinking of a way to fight against the Mongolian cavalry, and the most reliable way is to use firearms.

In fact, at this time, there were already guns and artillery, but the technology was not mature enough to form large-scale production.

Now that Li Yongxuan has acquired the skill of forging, he can process and improve firearms and mass-produce them. In the future, it will be much easier for him to deal with Mongolian cavalry.

Emperor Song asked Li Yongxuan to send troops to assist Yu Jie, the governor of Sichuan and Chongqing, to recover the entire Sichuan and Chongqing. It happened that Li Yongxuan also wanted to test the strength of his soldiers and horses, so he prepared his troops while observing the movements of Zhao Dezhong, the new Jincheng pacifier. .

Zhao Dezhong is the favorite minister of Emperor Song, not only greedy for money, but also lustful, his only advantage is loyalty, which is why he is favored.

Originally, he didn't want to leave the prosperous and comfortable Lin'an Mansion, and go to Jincheng, where the war was fierce and dangerous, but he couldn't hold back his thighs, so he had to obey the arrangement of Emperor Song.

Along the way, Zhao Dezhong was thinking about making some money and running for his life. When he arrived in Jincheng, he realized that the situation here was not as bad as he thought.

Jincheng has a population of more than [-], with high walls and thick walls, sufficient food and grass, and is very rich.

Before Zhao Dezhong had time to be happy, he discovered a big problem.

Except for the people he brought to Jincheng to serve, no one here takes himself as a pacifier seriously.

Zhao Dezhong wanted to be domineering, but he had no choice but to ask Li Yongxuan, "Li Yongxuan, do you want to rebel?"

Since they lived in the post house, no one paid any attention to them.

"what?"

Li Yongxuan said calmly: "Master Zhao, why did you say that!"

He has just developed his power now, and he doesn't want to make the scene too tense.

Zhao Dezhong's face darkened: "Jincheng doesn't pay attention to the pacifier appointed by the imperial court. Do you dare to say that this is not an attempt to rebel?"

If he went to serve as a conciliator in other places, officials of all sizes would have come here to give presents and fawn on him, but when he arrived in Jincheng, no one came to give gifts, how could Zhao Dezhong not be annoyed?

"Recently, I have to regain the lost ground. I am busy with official duties. I may have neglected Mr. Zhao. I hope you will forgive me!"

Li Yongxuan said with a calm expression: "We will host a banquet tonight to cleanse Mr. Zhao!"

He doesn't mind Song Emperor putting nails in Jincheng, as long as it doesn't affect his plan, it's fine.

Zhao Dezhong's expression eased, and he nodded.

He thought that Li Yongxuan was young and had no experience in officialdom entertainment, so it seemed necessary to mention more.

Zhao Dezhong went to the dinner party full of expectations, but he was greatly disappointed in the result.

On the table, there are only five dishes, four dishes and one soup, one meat and four vegetables, and even the people who serve the meals are all elderly women with ordinary looks, and there are no bureaucratic businessmen who give gifts.

Zhao Dezhong was so angry that he was about to smoke, he flicked his sleeves and left.

Li Yongxuan didn't care either, and asked people to keep an eye on Zhao Dezhong and the others. If there was any movement, he would report it immediately.

After a while, the person staring at him came back to report that after Zhao Dezhong returned to the posthouse, he cursed and planned to write a letter to Emperor Song to sue...

After thinking about it, Li Yongxuan decided to let Zhao Dezhong be assassinated in the past.

Zhao Dezhong had just finished writing the letter when several men in black with swords broke in.

He couldn't help being startled, thinking that Li Yongxuan knew that he was going to write a letter to sue, so he asked someone to kill him.

To Zhao Dezhong's surprise, the man in black didn't kill him, but injured a few people around him, and left in a hurry after grabbing the money.

The people Li Yongxuan sent were all from Taoism, with strict discipline and high martial arts, far from being able to resist Zhao Dezhong and others.

One night, Zhao Dezhong and others did not dare to sleep, for fear that someone would suddenly come to kill them.

They guessed that the assassination must be related to Li Yongxuan, and it is very likely that he ordered it.

After finally waiting for dawn, Zhao Dezhong and others couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.

Zhao Dezhong slowly recovered, thinking that Li Yongxuan would not dare to touch him.

He boldly went to trouble Li Yongxuan and asked for an explanation.

Li Yongxuan put Zhao Dezhong under house arrest on the grounds of safety, and arrested all the people brought by Zhao Dezhong on the grounds of being unfavorable for protection and sent them to repair the city wall.

After several months of repairs, Jincheng's fortifications have been almost restored.

But this is not enough, Li Yongxuan not only wants to defend, he also wants to attack.

He began to recruit craftsmen for the production of muskets and artillery on a large scale, first selected the site, and then prepared the tools and materials for the production of firearms.

A few days later, the army set off.

Li Yongxuan led 7000 troops to cooperate with Yu Jie, the Sichuan-Chongqing system, to send troops to recover the lost ground, leaving 1000 troops for Cheng Ying, Lu Wushuang, and Wan Yanping to guard Jincheng for defense.

In just a few months, the Song army and the Mongolian army fought more than 30 battles. After the heroic fighting of everyone, they finally succeeded in recovering all the lost land in Sichuan and Chongqing.

On the one hand, the Mongolian Great Khan Wokuotai passed away suddenly, and the Khan's position was suspended, and the main force of the Mongolian army withdrew from Sichuan and Chongqing;

Taking advantage of regaining the lost ground, Li Yongxuan rapidly expanded his power.

His current official position is the envoy of the Jincheng Road System, and he can justifiably recruit armed forces from all over the world, and without Zhao Dezhong's constraints, he is like a fish in water.

In order to get more development opportunities, Li Yongxuan asked Zhao Dezhong to upload the news according to his wishes.

At this time, he didn't want to turn against Song Ting.

Otherwise, Li Yongxuan would have driven Zhao Dezhong out of Jincheng long ago.

Song Emperor Zhao Yun received the good news, Long Yan was very happy, and ordered a reward.

Although he did not promote Li Yongxuan, Yu Jie, Zhao Dezhong and others who had made great contributions, he gave them titles and rewards.

Li Yongxuan has no interest in the title of title, and there are not many rewards, so he doesn't like it, so it can only be said that it is better than nothing.

Today, he is incomparably rich, but he occupies more territory and spends a lot, so more rewards are also a good thing.

Li Yongxuan placed Taoist disciples in various cities and gates to hold important positions, so that he could command and call them at critical times.

The force in his hand quickly expanded to [-], and after streamlining, it was reduced to [-], all of them elite soldiers.

Immediately afterwards, Li Yongxuan devoted more energy to the development of firearms.

The gunpowder is a tubular firearm with a giant bamboo tube as the gun body and filled with gunpowder and bullets. When the fuse is ignited, the gunpowder erupts and the bullets are shot out. The range is as far as 150 steps (about 230 meters).

After Li Yongxuan's improvement, he replaced the gun body with iron, which can hold more gunpowder bullets, which is more powerful and has a longer range.

What is even more powerful is the artillery. After improvement, it can blow down the city wall with a single shot, and the range can reach one mile.

In the blink of an eye, several months passed.

Li Yongxuan sent half of the muskets and cannons produced during this period to the Valley of Unrequited Love through the hidden space, and they only need a suitable opportunity to give full play to their effects.

Gongsun Lue is no stranger to seeing strange things, and has gradually become accustomed to them.

After she married Li Yongxuan, she discovered many of his secrets, but she didn't ask them.

Suddenly, Li Yongxuan received the news of Yelu Chucai's death, so he teleported to show his face.

After Yeluyan and Yeluqi finished taking care of Yelu Chucai's funeral, they arrived in Xiangyang.

Yeluyan only wanted to stay with Li Yongxuan, if she hadn't cared about her father and family, she would have already arrived in Jincheng.

Under the influence of his master Zhou Botong, Yeluqi disliked the cruel Mongolia that excluded his father, so he also went south to Xiangyang.

Knowing that the Song army was attacking Shouzhou, Li Yongxuan invited Yu Jie, envoy of Sichuan and Chongqing, and Meng Gong, envoy of Jinghu appeasement system, to join the northern expedition.

Li Yongxuan led an army of [-] with a large number of guns and artillery to attack Lizhou from Mianzhou to the north. Meng Gong decisively sent troops to harass the Mongolian fortress and burned the grain, grass and supplies hoarded by the enemy. Send troops to respond.

The road to Shu is difficult, but it is difficult to go to the blue sky!

The most difficult thing is to transport food, grass, and equipment, but Li Yongxuan has a secret space, and can teleport and transport materials easily.

He can get a large amount of supplies to the destination in a few hours, and all the soldiers in the army regard Li Yongxuan as a god who knows magic.

Jing Ruo God is omnipotent, there are gods to help them fight, are they still afraid of the Mongols?

With the assistance of a large number of artillery and burst guns, Li Yongxuan led his army to recover Lizhou West Road like a bamboo.

He dispatched part of his troops to defend various key points, and then cooperated with Yu Jie non-stop to recover the entire Lizhou East Road.

In a few months, most of the Sichuan-Chongqing area was recovered, which greatly reduced the pressure on the Sichuan-Chongqing defense line.

On the other side, although Meng Gong did not lead his army to regain much lost ground, he greatly restrained the Mongolian army's middle road and created opportunities for other fronts.

The Song Army on the East Road was not idle either, and they successfully captured Shouzhou.

After regaining large areas of lost ground in succession, Song Ting was very excited.

For a moment, all Song people cheered and rushed to tell each other.

In recent years, the Song army has been repeatedly defeated by the Mongolian army, almost all of which are passive defensive operations, and few people will take the initiative to counterattack.

This time, it can be said to be a huge victory, very rare.

Song Emperor Zhao Yun was overjoyed, and rewarded Li Yongxuan arbitrarily, and moved Li Yongxuan to be the pacifier of Lizhou, and went to the palace to face the saint.

It seems that the scope of authority of the Jincheng system envoy is similar to that of the Lizhou appeasement envoy.

The problem is that Jincheng is not only a plain area, but it has almost recovered, but Lizhou has just recovered, and it has to face Mongolian counterattacks all the time. It is conceivable which one is better and which is worse.

After Li Yongxuan led the army to recover the entire Lizhou, he did not continue to lead the army to attack north, but stopped for a while to rest.

To the north of Lizhou is the fertile Guanzhong Plain, which is very suitable for Mongolian cavalry field battles.

At this time, Li Yongxuan will naturally not use the forces he has cultivated with all his efforts to fight against Mongolia.

Every time he regained a place, he selected elites and incorporated them into the army to wait for the opportunity to expand his power.

In just a few months, Li Yongxuan's troops increased from [-] during the Northern Expedition to [-].

In order to completely reorganize the troops in his hands, Li Yongxuan stopped to reorganize, and eliminated the unstable factors in the team in time.
