Zhang Hongfan calmly handled the military affairs of the marching. Except for Zhang Hongfan's personal servants, all generals and schools thought that Marshal Zhang's command was very good. Zhang Hongfan's own family knew his family affairs, and he knew very well that he was really absent-minded at this time.

The big clan has its own troubles. For example, ten years ago, Zhang Hongfan led his troops to fight south, and Zhang Hongfan's brother Zhang Shijie led his army to resist. Ten years later, the situation has become that Zhang Shijie led his army to fight north, and Zhang Hongfan led his troops to resist. There are also some confusion in the Mongolian army, thinking that the Red Turban Army is not the Song army. Zhang Hongfan really would not think so. If the Red Turban Army really belonged to the people of Hebei rebelled on their own, they would have been wiped out by the Mongolian army long ago.

At this time, the military affairs were temporarily arranged, and someone led a young man over. The young man saluted Zhang Hongfan a little cowardly, and then said, "Uncle Jiu, I don't know what instructions do you have to ask me to come here."

"You..." Zhang Hongfan couldn't continue after speaking, which was rare for Zhang Hongfan. After thinking about his words, Zhang Hongfan said: "I'll arrange for someone to take you to see your father now, and you can bring him the letter. If he asked me what I had to say, please bring me a message. Is he going to attack Mongolia this time or to dig up the ancestral grave of our Zhang family!"

After saying that, Zhang Hongfan waved his hand and asked someone to take the young man out. Looking at their backs, Zhang Shijie felt a little fever on his face. Zhang Hongfan still remembered that twenty years ago, Zhang Shijie almost caused a bloody crime because of disrespect for the Mongols. After Zhang Shijie left a letter scolding Zhang Hongfan's father Zhang Rou, he ran to join the Southern Song Dynasty.

At present, General Boyan was implicated by the Song army in the direction of Zhigu Village, and Zhang Shijie's offensive could only rely on Zhang Hongfan to resist. Zhang Shijie had no response to the contact of the Zhang family. His arrogant attitude proved that he had a deep hatred for the Zhang family. Zhang Hongfan could not accept this hatred, nor could he accept Zhang Shijie's attitude of using private revenge. What the Zhang family did not owe Zhang Shijie was because Zhang Shijie owed the Zhang family.

Sixty or seventy miles away from Zhang Hongfan, Zhang Shijie was commanding his troops to build a military station. The Song army in Zhigu Village asked Zhang Shijie to build seven military stations from Cangzhou to the north, and finally connect with the military station on the west side of Zhigu Village. Once this transportation line is built, the Song army can set off from Dezhou and advance at a speed of 60 miles a day to join the Song army in Zhigu Village, which attacked Dadu.

Zhang Shijie agreed with the judgment of Zheng Jie, the commander of the Song army in Zhigu Village. He gathered 100,000 Song troops a hundred miles away from Dadu, but most of them could not defend them no matter what. There were a large number of bags made of straw ropes to make the construction foundation, and the military station was built very quickly. In one day, Zhang Shijie's troops built the first military station thirty miles north of Cangzhou City.

The troops set off the night early the next morning and arrived at the scheduled location before noon. Just as the troops were being constructed quickly, a cavalryman from the periphery brought a few people to Zhang Shijie's side. Zhang Shijie felt that a young man in his early twenties looked familiar to him, but the memory was too long that he could not remember which corner of his memory to search for that face.

The guard whispered to Zhang Shijie: "General Zhang, they claim to be from the Zhang family in Hebei."

"Yes." Zhang Shijie responded and turned his gaze back to these Zhang family members.

Both sides seemed a little embarrassed. Zhang Shijie felt that the young man looked at him carefully with a very straightforward gaze, which made him feel a little unhappy. He tried not to see the younger generation of the Zhang family. Zhang Shijie asked the middle-aged man in the head, "I don't know what Zhang Hongfan asked you to do."

"General Zhang, my marshal asked us to escort your young master over. He was just born when you left, and I think you can't recognize him..."

Hearing the previous words, Zhang Shijie felt that he had spent a lot of energy to make his brain work hard. Because his heart began to be beating uncontrollably, he had difficulty breathing, and his brain was swelling. All kinds of reactions deprived Zhang Shijie of his thinking ability. But some things did not require thinking. In the corner of memory, Zhang Shijie's first wife's appearance was finally remembered.

It was a very quiet northern woman. What Zhang Shijie could remember was the way his wife was holding her son. But that memory was too long, and his wife's appearance and son's appearance were very vague. All that could be left was a familiar feeling.

After finally recovering his brain, Zhang Shijie looked at his son and opened his mouth several times, but couldn't say anything. Seeing Zhang Shijie like this, the middle-aged man in the Zhang family stopped talking, but just gently pushed Zhang Shijie's son. However, the young man did not have tears in his eyes, and suddenly rushed forward to hug Zhang Shijie's thigh and called him Daddy. Instead, he faced Zhang Shijie with an expression that seemed to have been hurt.

Zhang Shijie, who was full of joy, stepped forward and tried to grab his son's shoulder to take a look. Unexpectedly, his hand just touched his son's shoulder, but his son took two steps back. Now Zhang Shijie felt that there was ice water topping, and the whole feeling became very bad.

In such an awkward state, Zhang Shijie's son said, "General Zhang, I will send you a letter on my order from Uncle Jiu."

"Oh..." Zhang Shijie responded. Although he was unhappy, his guilt made Zhang Shijie find a reason for his son. I think he suffered a lot, so he attributed the blame to Zhang Shijie who left the mother and son and ran to the south.

At this moment, Zhang Shijie's son continued, "Uncle Jiu asked me to bring you a message. Should you come here to attack Mongolia or dig up the ancestral tomb of our Zhang family!"

As soon as these words were said, the air seemed to solidify. The middle-aged man looked embarrassed. He didn't expect that Zhang Shijie's son would not know how to speak. Zhang Shijie was stunned at first, and then couldn't help laughing to the sky. After a few laughs, he had tears in his eyes. He sighed and Zhang Shijie said: "I know the purpose of your trip. Now you go back and tell Zhang Hongfan that I, Zhang Shijie, are very grateful for protecting the Zhang family's ancestral tomb over the years. However, I, Zhang Shijie, are not a person who forgets my roots. In the future, I will leave it to me to protect the Zhang family's ancestral tomb. Nothing is wrong with Zhang Hongfan!"

After saying that, Zhang Shijie wiped his tears, threw the words "Send them away", turned around and left.

In the afternoon, the military station had been repaired. The cavalry of the Red Turban Army also found that Zhang Hongfan's army was still more than twenty miles away. One night, the Red Turban Army was cautious and moved forward carefully the next day. Zhang Shijie did not go to fight Zhang Hongfan, but went straight to the next military station. According to the news sent by Zhigu Village a few days ago, the Song army of Zhigu Village had already begun to build a military station to go south. If three military stations were repaired, it means that it was closer to the Song army of Zhigu Village.

The commanders who knew the grudges between Zhang Shijie and the Zhang family were a little surprised. They did not expect that Zhang Shijie was so tolerant. They had this idea because they did not understand Zhang Shijie's thoughts. Zhang Shijie was extremely eager to completely defeat Zhang Hongfan, so he was looking for the greatest chance of winning. If he could attack forward and backward, Zhang Hongfan would undoubtedly lose.

Even if you can't attack from front and back, as long as you capture Dadu, Zhang Hongfan will become a rootless tree without the support of the Mongols, and Zhang Shijie's control over the Red Turban Army is real. No matter what choice, Zhang Shijie has a chance of winning.

Zhang Hongfan thought that Zhang Shijie would come to fight, but when he heard the news that Zhang Shijie's troops were heading north, he was even more strict in guarding the camp. Unexpectedly, Zhang Shijie's troops did not stop, but continued to go north. Zhang Hongfan knew the ability of the Song army to repair troops and immediately sent troops to rush forward. The two armies confronted each other, but saw Zhang Shijie adopting a defensive formation. Zhang Hongfan carefully looked at Zhang Shijie's military formation, and finally snorted, but stopped saying anything.

There is naturally an advantage in defense, and Zhang Shijie even adopted an extreme turtle formation, defending like an iron barrel. Needless to say, in the center of the turtle shell is the military station that Zhang Shijie is sending people to build. After seeing the Song army station with his own eyes, Zhang Hongfan knew that the thing was no less than an ordinary city.

Recalling the Song army in Zhigu Village, it was such a turtle stream, which made Zhang Hongfan feel very desperate. Not long ago, although Mongolia caused major damage to the Song army, it failed to defeat the Song army. Moreover, such great damage was based on the large number of nomadic cattle herds in Mongolia. Even the Mongolians consumed two or three thousand cows at a time, and it was not immediately possible to replenish them. Moreover, the fire cattle formation had great requirements for the terrain. Once Zhang Shijie completed the military station, he could hide in the military station. No matter how fierce the cattle herd was, he would definitely be defeated by hitting his head against the wall.

"Curror!" Zhang Hongfan ordered. At this time, the only way he could count on was to anger the other party and let the other party come out to fight.

According to the previous methods of cursing, all kinds of ridicule and filthy words were naturally gushing out at the other party. Zhang Hongfan heard it for a while, but found that the cursing this time was extremely civilized. All the people shouted were cowards and rats, which had no lethality. No one directly greeted Zhang Shijie's ancestors' 18 generations.

Zhang Hongfan felt even more embarrassed now. But this is understandable. Both sides of the battlefield have Zhang family members. There are only Zhang Shijie on the Song army, and there are dozens of numbers on the Mongolian army. If they curse, there will undoubtedly be more losses on the Zhang family on the Mongolian army.

You can't fight, you can't scold you. The battlefield was in an awkward situation. After another awkward hour, the formation of the Red Turban Army began to change. Just when Zhang Hongfan felt that there might be a chance, he saw the Song army retreating into the outer wall of the already repaired military station. Looking at the outer wall of the straw that was so tall, Zhang Hongfan sighed and ordered: "Get out."

Although it was a retreat, Zhang Hongfan still left a flaw behind. Zhang Shijie was as if he had not seen it and was unmoved at all. Because the construction was only the periphery of the military station, and there were still many things to be improved in the military station. Since there was an exterior wall, Zhang Shijie hoped that everyone could go in and rest first. Although it was still February, the weather was still very cold. After letting the wind blow in the wilderness for so long, the troops had accumulated quite fatigue.

The next day, Zhang Shijie asked the troops to continue to repair. At night, he went to contact the cavalry in the north and rushed back. When Zhigu Village came, the Song army was still sixty miles away from Zhang Shijie. Tomorrow they advanced thirty miles to build a military station, and this transportation line starting from Dezhou, north of the Yellow River was complete.
Chapter completed!
