The military ban was opened up, allowing local tyrants to build weapons. After the people held the orders of weapons and a series of appointments and title orders were issued, various places responded. Tiemur received reports from all over the place that many powerful and powerful gentry had dispersed their family funds to recruit troops, build weapons, and form rural troops to resist the Southern Dynasty. He was also very excited, thinking that saving the country was expected.

So over the past ten days, Tiemur has been very excited. He, who is most reluctant to review official documents on weekdays, has become diligent now. The reason is that he has not been able to recruit thousands of soldiers from all over the country and tens of thousands of soldiers, and the number of soldiers has increased rapidly. The thousand households issued by himself and the orders from thousands of households are issued like snowflakes. Looking at the silver medal, the tiger talismans were awarded countless, and it was not just a piece of paper, but a soldier against the Song Dynasty.

Thinking that he did not consume money and food, he could get countless soldiers with just a few sages, Tiemur was in a very good mood. What made him feel more wise was that in order to obtain an appointment or title, those powerful people donated money and food one after another. They were willing to offer grain and one hundred stones for an empty rank of a hundred households, and a fifth-rank official could ask them to take out two thousand taels of real money and silver...

Therefore, Tiemur was so happy that it was harder to get these landlords and merchants, and even the nobles, to donate them on weekdays than to take their lives. Now, without saying much, they took the initiative to contribute their money and grain. In just a short period of time, they had more than three million stagnants of gold and silver and 500,000 s of grain, which filled the treasury that had been empty for a long time.

But happy days are always short. The ministers of this day entered the palace to discuss matters as usual. The bad news just started, and Tiemur's heart almost popped out of his mouth.

"Report to the Khan, Shanxi Xuanwei Office has received an urgent report last night that Taiyuan City has been lost, and Daluhua Chisu Ge, Wanhu Mansion in Shanxi, Hedong, died in battle!" Kurigis reported.

"Taiyuan is lost? How could it be like this..." Tie Muer's face suddenly changed.

"After the Song army occupied Shangdang, Su Ge did not listen to He Weixian's advice and personally led his army from Taiyuan to Xiangyuan to resist the enemy's north. He underestimated the enemy's advance, but he did not know that Xiangyuan had fallen. He was ambushed by the Song army's vanguard in Qinzhou, and suffered thousands of troops. He wanted to retreat to Qinzhou, but he took advantage of the situation and attacked the city. He retreated to Yushe to rectify his troops." Kurigis reported the situation and said.

"Yushe is narrow, the city is short, and there is insufficient money and food, so it is difficult to hold on. Su Ge left three thousand troops to stop the pursuers and led a brigade to retreat to Yuci. Two days later, the Song army brigade arrived, and he led his army to fight ten miles outside the city. He fought several times and was defeated by the enemy. He led the defeated army to escape to Taiyuan!"

"Idiot, the Song army's firearms are sharp, why don't they defend the city, but instead fight against the enemy in the field!" Tiemur said angrily after hearing this. He knew that Yuci and Taiyuan were only fifty miles apart, and were known as the southeast barrier of Taiyuan. Once the Song army lost, they would approach the city of Taiyuan.

"Khan, Su Ge thought that his defeat in the previous time was because he was attacked by the Song army's tricks. It was not impossible to fight, and his troops were twice as powerful as the enemy. Therefore, he wanted to fight the enemy in Yuci, but he did not expect that the enemy was not afraid at all. He defeated the 30,000 guards he led with just one brigade of troops, and lost most of the troops!" Kurigis sighed.

"How could the Song army defeat the 30,000 guards with only one brigade of troops? "Teimuer knew that there was a gap in weapons between the two armies, but he would not have collapsed in one battle when the troops were superior, and he said in surprise.

"It is reported that the enemy army entering Shanxi this time was the imperial guards of the Southern Dynasty, and the general who led the army was Ni Liang. He was very good at fighting. He followed the Southern Dynasty emperors to fight in his early years. He boarded a ship and seriously injured Liu Shen in the Battle of Five Continents Seas; he killed Zhang Hongzheng in the Yashan Formation and forced Zhang Hongfan to death; in the Battle of Yangzhou, he used an army of 30,000 to block Yuxi Timur's 100,000 troops... He was known as the most powerful general in the imperial guards of the Southern Dynasty!" said Kurigis.

"In order to seize Shanxi, the thief of the Southern Dynasty actually ignored his life and secretly sent his personal guards into Hedong!" Tiemur took a cold breath.

He was stranded in Lin'an, Southern Dynasties for nearly a year, and naturally knew that the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty were personally led by the emperor of the Southern Dynasties. The soldiers were elite troops composed of war-torn soldiers selected from the various armies. The training was the most difficult, the equipment was the most well-equipped, and had never suffered defeat. He was known as the strongest soldier in the Song Dynasty.

It is said that his commander Ni Liang saved the emperor's life in his early years and was his most trusted general. Tiemur also met Ni Liang when he attended the court meeting. He was a silly and stupid man who always stood by the emperor with a knife and was always on the side of the emperor when he traveled. When he went to war, he led the imperial guards to accompany him to protect the safety of the camp, but he had never heard of him leading the army alone and fighting away from the battle.

He used to think that Ni Liang's great achievements were just because the emperor of the Southern Dynasty was grateful for his life-saving grace, or that he had deliberately praised the merits he had directed on him, not because he had the ability to lead troops to fight. Now it seems that he is not just a brave general, but a general with many strategies.

"Well, I know that the Southern Dynasty is the guardian of the imperial army who is the most accustomed to fighting, but it is not surprising that Brother Su was defeated by him!" Tie Muer nodded, turned his face and said with a solemn expression, "Taiyuan has a tall city and sufficient supplies. Why is it still defeated? Can't he hold it for a year, or even a month?"

"Khan, the loss of Taiyuan is actually because Brother Su is arrogant and domineering, cruel and moral, and it is not a crime of not fighting!" Korigis sighed.

"What's going on?" Tiemur asked again.

"Brother Su was defeated in Taiyuan, and his troops were defeated in a row, with less than 10,000 people left, and his morale was extremely low. He forced the soldiers to recruit young and strong soldiers as soldiers in the city, and robbed and raped the treasury, and killed hundreds of people. Local officials prohibited him, and he imprisoned the officials of the state, which caused the people in the city to flee one after another. After the Song army besieged the city, he became more and more strict in order for the wealthy merchants in the city to donate money and grain, and bullyed the soldiers in the city's garrison, so that they could act as cannon fodder." Kurigis said.

"Some merchants in the city were unable to bear the oppression and bribed the town army guarding the east gate. They opened the city gate in the middle of the night to lead the Song army into the city. Brother Su was drunk and could not react. He was killed in the camp by the Song army. Taiyuan was occupied by the Southern Dynasty!"

"Brother Su deserves to die. If Taiyuan is lost, Shanxi will be difficult to defend. The Song army can also threaten the capital. Our court is in danger!" Tie Muer cursed after hearing the hatred attack.

He was very clear about the significance of Shanxi to the Mongolian Yuan. This was the rear of Mongolia when he launched the Central Plains strategy, and it was also the weapons production center and grain warehouse of the imperial court, as well as the horses and cattle and sheep warehouses of the Mongolians. After the establishment of Dadu, the horses gathered around Dadu were fostered in Shanxi, even the Qixue Army was no exception. Therefore, together with Shandong, Hebei, and Inner Mongolia, they were directly assigned to the Secretariat Province, which belonged to the "Boli Area".

On the other hand, if Shanxi loses, the Southern Army can go directly to Juyongguan through Feihu Xing, causing most of the capital to be attacked from both sides, and from Shanxi, they can advance to the grasslands and threaten the capital. What makes Tie Muer even more angry is that the loss of Shanxi is equivalent to cutting off an important path for him to escape from the grasslands in the north, and at the same time, it also forces the Northwest Kings Army to circumnavigate Yunzhou to enter Beijing, which greatly delays the speed.

"Where is He Weixian, the commander of the Taiyuan Ludu Marshal? He holds tens of thousands of Zuoyi guards in his hand, so why can't he ban it and let Su Ge make trouble!" An Tong asked with a frown. He knew that He Weixian was a steady man and had been in charge of Taiyuan for many years, so he would definitely stop Su Ge from doing anything wrong and killing innocent people, but Korigis did not mention it at all.

"Ah!" Korigis sighed before he could speak, "When the Southern Army captured Shangdang, He Weixian suggested that he give up the south of Shanxi and concentrate the guards scattered in various places in the dangerous places on Taiyuan Road, rely on the advantage of the territory to prevent the enemy from advancing north, and do not easily fight the enemy to the decisive battle. In order to protect the Arc Bureau, the Arc Bureau, the Horse Farm and the Grassland located in Datong, so that the supply of the Grassland Army that entered the capital and the Guards can be guaranteed."

"But Brother Su thought He Weixian was afraid of fighting, so the two had a dispute over this. At this time, the Khan issued an order to transfer troops from all over the country to the guards' capital. The grassland tribes from the north of the Lingbei were in a state of integrity and snow, and countless livestock were frozen to death, resulting in a shortage of food and nowhere to replenish supplies along the way. After entering Shanxi, he sought grain from various prefectures and counties. For a time, the granaries along the way were empty and difficult to deal with. He could only close the city gates and prohibit the guards from entering the country."

"The grassland army entering the guards could not obtain supplies, so they plundered the city Zhoucun and towns, and even the horse farms and bureaus belonging to the court. For a time, the situation was chaotic, and the people of Datong Road, who suffered the most, formed camps to protect themselves. Some hungry people became bandits under the instigation of those who were interested, and fought against the official army and captured the prefectures. Brother Su ordered He Weixian to go to Datong Road to eliminate the rebellion and summoned the guards to prepare to enter the capital of the guards. Therefore, they were not in Taiyuan at that time, otherwise they would not have made a big mistake!"

"After Taiyuan was lost, the troops were completely lost. The Song army took advantage of the situation and advanced northward. The surrounding prefectures and counties were unable to resist. They all fled or surrendered, and they were in a hurry!"

"In this way, the situation in Shanxi has been corrupt and difficult to deal with. However, if Datong loses again, it will be difficult for all the troops entering the garrison to obtain supplies, and the grain supply of both capitals will be cut off. Brother Su will ruin the country!" Tiemuer was heartbroken, but he had no choice but to yell.

"Khan, although Shanxi has lost most of its territory, Datong still has the right guards guards stationed in Datong, so that the situation can be stabilized after the siege of Wanhu can be achieved. There are sufficient weapons and food there, and I think it can be able to support it for a period of time. As long as the siege of the capital is lifted, the Song army entering Shanxi will have to retreat without support!" Buhumu saw that the Khan was in a madness again, so he quickly comforted him.

"How long can He Weixian last? How long can the situation in Hebei develop? When will the Southern Dynasty retreat? Who can tell me!" With repeated failures, Tiemur's confidence that had just established was shaken again and shouted at everyone.

"I don't know!" everyone said politely.

"Khan, I think the situation in Datong Road is critical, so I can distribute the armor, weapons and food stored in various places to Dudu and Dadu in case of accidents!" The situation is getting worse and worse, and even An Tong can find it difficult to remain calm anymore. Think about it.

"Pingzhang cannot retreat. We have a strong city in hand, and the outcome is unknown!" Li Siyan immediately objected.

"I'm tired, you can discuss it and report it to me!" Tie Muer felt very upset when he heard their quarrel, and waved his hand...
