Battalion Commander Qin Ling was responsible for guarding the Yuhuatai in Jiankang (Nanjing). This is a high ground, so if you guard Jiankang, you must guard the Yuhuatai. At this time, the vanguard of the Song army only advanced here and fought on the front line, you must be careful at all times.

After the patrol, the sentry brought back one person. After hearing this, Qin Ling's face became serious. It turned out that this was a descendant of the Yue family. He surrendered to the Mongolians like many officials when the Lin'an General surrendered. Now, this man learned that the court had returned to Lin'an, he wanted to make meritorious service. The Yue family brought about the movements of the Mongolian army. The Ali Hague tribe was heading north and said to be heading to Guide Prefecture.

Involving the large-scale mobilization of the Mongolian army, Battalion Commander Qin Ling did not dare to delay and immediately sent the news to Lin'an by Fei Ge's letter. At this time, Lin'an was just discussing the issue of Guide Mansion.

Guide Prefecture was in Henan, and Guide Prefecture was abolished during the Republic of China, and it was Shangqiu City in New China. At the end of June of the first year of Duanping (1234), Quan Zi recovered Nanjing (now Shangqiu), where Song Taizu became the founding place. Zhao Kui served as the prefect of Yingtian Prefecture and remained in Nanjing. The Mongolian army captured Nanjing of the Song Dynasty and renamed Guide Prefecture.

Guide Prefecture is mainly a plain, and Zhao Jiaren's impression of this place is that it is a "national-level production area". If it can be recovered, the food supply can be greatly solved. However, this is a plain, which is very suitable for cavalry combat. Many people are worried about being raided by the Mongolian army. In contrast, many people think that the terrain here is flat, and although the cavalry can run fast, they can really fight in formation, and the Song army can also give full play to their advantages.

Just as everyone was arguing, the news came. When they heard that this was the information sent by a surrender, many people's faces became very ugly. No wonder everyone was like this. Everyone insisted on fighting until now when the country was facing the crisis of destruction. Of course, they looked down on surrenderers. Moreover, the surrenderers were descendants of the Yue family, which particularly stimulated everyone's nerves.

Zhao Jiaren didn't care about this matter. The Yue family not only surrendered in the Mongolian era, but also surrendered in the Qing Dynasty. It also served the barbarians in the Qing Dynasty. The descendants of the Yue family could not be used to insult Yue Fei, just like Yue Fei had no reason to become the amulet for the descendants of the Yue family to be unchanged.

With such an idea, Zhao Jiaren had already sentenced the traitors to death. If he could use the waste, Zhao Jiaren didn't think there was anything wrong with it. What's more, this news gave some less reliable evidence for the military discussion.

"Whether the Mongolian army should attack Guide Mansion is a different story. Is there any other information to judge whether the Mongolian army should mobilize the Mongolian army on the Yangtze River to aid Shandong?" Zhao Jiaren raised the question.

"What should I do if the Taiwei is going to do?" Everyone didn't understand.

Zhao Jiaren replied decisively: "If they go back to Shandong, it means we have hurt the Mongols in Shandong. Since we have pinched their painful feet, we will fight them in Shandong. We have been constantly weakening the jurisdiction of the Mongolian court in Shandong before, isn't it just for this?"

You hit yours, I hit mine. The strategic logic proposed by Zhao Jiaren is really beyond everyone's imagination, and everyone's faces showed confusion.

The Privy Council was confused by the orders of Zhao Taiwei, and the people on the front line were not confused by this side. In early February, the Song army of the two divisions, sixteen battalions, received an order and the troops gathered in Guide Mansion. The order told everyone that if the Mongolian army came to Guide Mansion before May, the troops would fight with them. If the Mongolian army did not come, the troops would withdraw back to Xuzhou. If the Mongolian army attacked Xuzhou, the troops would give up Guide Mansion and go to Xuzhou to participate in the battle.

Regarding the orders of the Privy Council, a group of soldiers understood that they would station here until May. If there were enemies around, they would fight against the enemy. If there were no enemies, they would return to Xuzhou to wait for the new order.

The army is very busy, and it has to practice, repair and survey and mapping every day, especially for roads from Guide Mansion to Xuzhou and other places. On March 11, the guards discovered that the large Mongolian troops were heading to Guide Mansion. The reconnaissance cavalry finally got rid of the pursuit of Mongolian cavalry and passed the news to the Song army stationed in Guide Mansion.

On March 16, the vanguard of the Marshal Ali Hague arrived outside the city of Guide. When these Mongolian troops saw that the Song army did not simply defend the city, they opened the city gate and sent troops outside the moat to confront the Mongolian army. Seeing the neat array, the Mongolian vanguard ordered a little back. Even if they had not fought with Zhao Jiaren's army, they knew how Zhao Jiaren's army broke through the siege of the Mongolian army in Xiangyang. After the main force of the Marshal Ali Hague arrived, they would talk about whether to fight or not.

Hearing that the Song army was raging in Shandong, the Marshal Ali Hague originally thought he was meeting some Song troops wandering everywhere. When he arrived in front of the formation, what caught his eye was the neat military formation of the Song army. The Marshal looked at the four-meter-long spear like Malin, and knew that it was useless to use cavalry to rush hard. Seeing that the Song army did not have many cavalry, the Marshal immediately ordered, "withdrawing back to the camp."

As the Mongolian army began to retreat, the Song army's formation also began to move. They did not pursue frantically, but moved forward steadily at their own frequency. Ali Hague couldn't help but be amazed. He did not expect that the Song army would be so fierce. The retreating order and issuance would make the army stop immediately and fight back, which would only cause chaos in the military formation. The marshal ordered: "Let the cavalry restrain the Song army."

The Mongolian cavalry who received the order immediately turned around and rushed towards the Song army's wings. The cavalry did not expect that the Song army had no pause at all. They seemed to have not seen the Mongolian cavalry's double-team, and continued to pat the neat line and continue to move forward. Seeing that they were ignored so much, the Mongolian cavalry continued to ride their horses, cursing the Song army from afar and encircling the Song army's rear.

At this time, the sixth division of the Song army pursued the Mongolian army, and the eighth division set up a formation behind the 6th division. As the 6th division advanced step by step, the distance between the two divisions became larger and larger. When the distance between the two sides exceeded 300 meters, the Mongolian cavalry decisively inserted between the two armies. The Mongolian cavalry was galloping back and forth, shouting loudly. The horse's hooves splashed countless dust on the ground, and the Sixth Division, whose figures disappeared, seemed to have been completely swallowed by the Mongolian army.

"Is there any water in the minds of the Mongolians?" Xu Qinghui, commander of the 8th Division, said to the Chief of Staff.

The Chief of Staff was an old acquaintance with him. When he saw Xu Qinghui, he began to pick up lightly again, and said coldly, "Don't talk nonsense, work quickly!"
