Chapter 96: Poyang Lake Suppresses Bandits (1)

"We want to exchange Gorten and Jiang Qingzhi for Xia Gui and Fan Wenhu." Ding Fei said calmly in the face of Uribuchi, the Mongolian Minister to the Song Dynasty.

Wulibuhuachi looked at the young official in his twenties opposite him and felt quite appreciative. He had seen Zhao Jiaren, the left prime minister of the Song Dynasty. This left prime minister of the Song Dynasty gave Wulibuhuachi the feeling of seeing Kublai Khan of the Mongolian Khan. Both of them had strong willpower and a sense of oppression that had been in high positions for a long time. Although Ding Fei must have killed people, he had killed a large number of people. A young man full of vitality and spirit like Ding Fei did not have the cold feeling of being a superior person standing on his hair.

No matter how he appreciated it, Uribuhachi still said according to what he had heard before: "Don't you change the nobles?"

Ding Fei shook his head and replied, "There is no hurry at this moment." The election of these two people has also been discussed within the traitor committee. Among the rebel generals who were most hurt by the Song Dynasty, Liu Zheng has been arrested and killed. Although Lu Wenhuan is very hateful, he has indeed tried his best, so it is inevitable that someone will think he is very pitiful. In addition, the only ones that need to be killed are Xia Gui and Fan Wenhu.

Uribuhuachi felt that Mongolia still had an advantage now. Seeing Ding Fei so serious, he couldn't help but tease: "I can only send news to Dadu. As for whether Dadu is willing or not, it has to wait."

"You can wait slowly." Ding Fei replied without hesitation. He originally thought that this matter would not be so fast, and he also believed that there were too few Mongolian prisoners captured by the Song Dynasty at this time. If enough prisoners were captured, it would be the Mongolian turn to hurry up and get the list.

Wuli Buhuachi didn't expect Ding Fei to be so calm. He asked in surprise: "Brother Ding, isn't you anxious about this matter at all? Would he not urge you?"

"If it is useful, Taiwei Zhao and I will be very, very anxious. We must show you it." Ding Fei smiled happily. When Zhao Jiaren and Ding Fei talked about this matter, they said that when the Song Dynasty first resolves the initial internal problems, they can concentrate on external matters. At that time, as long as they can kill 600,000 Mongolian troops on the battlefield, Mongolia would probably collapse. At least Mongolia is no longer able to maintain its rule in the northern Han area.

There are about 30 million people on the territory ruled by Mongolia now. Among them, there are about 15 million men, and the proportion of men aged 15 to 50 accounts for about 40%. That is 6 million. The men who can be pulled to the battlefield are the stronger of these 6 million adult men, and they are also the ones that the Mongolian rulers can mobilize. Kill these people, Mongolia has very weak combat power through Latin.

Ding Fei also took a lot of effort to barely have an idea of ​​what Zhao Taiwei said, and then he felt enlightened. The population that could not be mobilized was of little significance to the state regime. The Song Dynasty had a population of 80 million. During the Mongolian expedition in the south, it only defeated 300,000 Song troops, which forced the Lin'an court to surrender.

"Haha!" Uribuhuachi was amused by Ding Fei's words. He liked Ding Fei very much because Ding Fei was as straightforward as the Mongols. The style of the officials of the Southern Song Dynasty was very annoying. Whether they were doing things or not, they were hiding them. Compared with them, Ding Fei's frankness was like a pool of clear water, and he could see the bottom safely. It was a bit pleasing to the eye.

Ding Fei also laughed a few times. During the initial counterattack, the population that Zhao Taiwei could really control was only 2 million, and the army that could mobilize was only 100,000. However, relying on these 2 million people and 100,000 troops, the powerful Mongolian army was defeated and the old land of the Southern Song Dynasty could be recovered within a few years.

When Ding Fei could figure this out, the seemingly powerful Dayuan immediately became a real existence in Ding Fei's eyes. Ding Fei was not afraid of such a regime that could be defeated. The original Ding Fei couldn't laugh, and Ding Fei now found that he would never feel the nearly desperate feeling he used to be.

So after laughing, Ding Fei, an official from the Song Dynasty, and Wuli Buhuachi, the Minister of the Yuan Dynasty, drank a cup of tea and had a snack, and then they dispersed. Ding Fei considered the trial that would soon begin on his way home. This Western Expedition arrested many Song geniuses, and these people were going to be tried. Everyone had differences in the way of the trial. Some believed that these people were sent to Lin'an for trial first, while some believed that these people had committed a lot of evil in the local area and should be tried in public.

Ding Fei felt that the two had their own benefits, so he wanted to find the best way out. But no matter how he thought, he could see the less suitable part. Then Ding Fei suddenly saw the students who had left school and remembered the little brother Liu Chong who had abandoned school and joined the army. He had been in the army for several months and thought he should have completed the initial military training. According to the division of this group of soldiers, Liu Chong should have arrived in Jiangxi now and may have started to fight.

It was similar to what Ding Fei thought. Liu Chong was sitting on the boat with his rifle on his back and his comrades in the same company. Looking at the company commander Yang Tiexin, who had always had a tense face, Liu Chong didn't dare to speak. Yang Tiexin knew his subordinates' comments, but he really couldn't laugh, and he didn't think there was anything worth laughing about in such a world.

A few years ago, Niujia Village was attacked by Mongols. Although Yang Tiexin and others fought hard, they were still outnumbered. In times of crisis, Guo Xiaotian protected Yang Tiexin with his body and finally pushed Yang Tiexin, who was not seriously injured, into the river. Seeing that his brother was killed by Mongolian soldiers, Yang Tiexin felt that he was burned to death, but he lost his strength. Just when he was almost drowned, the fleet of the Song Army Shipyard rescued him. Yang Tiexin had to retreat with the large army first.

By the time the Song army counterattacked and regained Niujia Village, it had been burned to a white ground by the Mongolian army. Yang Tiexin was completely disappointed and joined the army. He was good at the Yang family's guns and was eager to take revenge. In addition to his bravery in combat, he also simply explained the family's gun skills. Because of this, he became a company commander from an ordinary soldier in a few years. Moreover, Yang Tiexin had been told that he would go to the military academy to go to school in the middle of the year. Last time he went to school, he became a platoon leader from a squad leader, and this time it was said that he would become a staff officer or deputy battalion commander.

However, after the troops equipped the new rifle, they actually canceled the spear. This made Yang Tiexin feel very uncomfortable and his face became tighter.

Each large ship transported a company of troops. When the troops received the order, the people from the Ming Cult had officially informed that they would not accept the invitation from the Song Dynasty court. Hearing that these righteous men who bravely resisted Mongolia had become traitors, Yang Tiexin felt very disappointed. From a personal point of view, Yang Tiexin hoped that those people could surrender with cognitive abilities.

At this time, the flag slogan was played on the ship in front. The content was very simple, "Prepare for battle."

"Be careful, prepare for the battle!" Yang Tiexin immediately ordered. The soldiers were lined up on both sides of the ship to welcome the enemies that could appear at any time.

At this time, Yang Tiexin felt that he could understand why the troops wanted to cancel spear soldiers, and the battle began with long-range combat. The number of long-range soldiers in an army generally did not exceed 30%. In addition to the lack of melee capabilities of long-range soldiers, it was also very troublesome to make long-range weapons.

The effective range of the new rifle can easily reach 100 steps. At a distance of 100 steps (150 meters), rifle bullets are powerful. For those with poor eyesight, it is a problem to see 100 steps away. Even for people with good eyesight, it is also very difficult to shoot arrows that can reach 100 steps away.

So for the same 10,000 people, the Song army can organize intensive shooting of 10,000 people. At most 3,000 people can shoot at the opposite side, and the winner has been decided on this point alone. As for melee..., Yang Tiexin has discussed with other officers in the army who are proficient in melee combat a more effective assassination routine of using rifles for bayonet battles. The rifle and bayonet are also four or five feet long. In Yang Tiexin's hands, short guns of this length also have strong lethality.

‘Woo…Woo…’ A dull sound came from the lake. Yang Tiexin felt that the sound was a bit like a snail, but it was not very different.

"It should be the Niukeon. It seems that the traitors really want to fight us." The company instructor said to Yang Tiexin.

Yang Tiexin admired the instructor very much. Now each company has sent an instructor. The instructors are all scholars. In addition to studying themselves, they also have to organize soldiers in the army to study. In addition to reading, the instructors are also good at various military skills. For example, after the instructors gave a lecture, Yang Tiexin remembered that such a voice was indeed very similar to the sound of the ox horn that he had heard before.

Not long after, some ships appeared in the distance of the lake. Then there was a faint sound of shelling in front of him. The instructor summoned the troops and said to everyone: "Everyone, the Taiwei has an order. Although the people on the opposite side are now rebels, what do the soldiers below know? They just felt that they could not stand the oppression, so they followed the leaders of the Ming Cult to rebel. So this time we tried not to aim for annihilation. After all, they were still the people of our Song Dynasty."

"Instructor, we can't let them kill, right?" someone asked.

The instructor is a member of the society, so there is naturally a basic patience. Moreover, the soldiers’ problems are not beyond the scope. He said: "Our combat power is stronger than them, so I want everyone not to kill and kill in the case of a complete victory. You should do this when you are against the Mongolians, because we and the Mongolians are in a life-and-death zero-sum relationship. Either they die or we die. But for the people, even for the people who make mistakes, we cannot kill them so ruthlessly. That is not the attitude towards the people of the Song Dynasty."

"That is to say, let's try our best to win the battle first?" The questioner tried to determine whether his own ideas were correct.

The instructor said unhappily: "Why do we want to defeat the battle on purpose!"
