Under the setting sun, the soldiers of the Song Army were ordered to clean the battlefield. The Mongolian army suffered heavy casualties and nearly half of them were lost. The casualties were even more tragic than in the Battle of Wudu Mountain. Even Chi Laowen was captured, while Nachahan escaped.
However, according to Meng Gong's prediction, only three to four thousand Mongolian troops escaped. The remaining Mongolian troops were either killed or captured. This remnant of the Mongolian army was no longer a threat.
So Meng Gong ordered Jiang Hai, Jiang Wanzai, Peng Yibin and others not to stop him, and let Tuo Lei come to join Chahan.
At this time, Tuolei was already depleted of men and horses, and Chahan was severely defeated. Under such circumstances, the two men meeting together would not only fail to inspire the morale of the army, but would instead become even more frustrated because both of them were in deep trouble.
As expected, as Meng Gong expected, Tuo Lei saw that Jiang Hai and others were withdrawing their troops and no longer stopped him. He immediately led his troops to find the whereabouts of Chahan and others.
When Tuo Lei saw Chahan in such a miserable state, Salita died in battle, and Chi Laowen was captured again, this further dampened the confidence of Tuo Lei and all the Mongolian troops, and made their morale even lower.
At this moment, Meng Gong also selected one of the Mongolian prisoners and said to him: "Go and tell Tuo Lei that as long as he surrenders, we, the Song Dynasty, will still treat him with courtesy, and I, Meng Gong, can also use my personality to
I guarantee that nothing will happen to any of the Mongolian troops under his command."
Although Tuo Lei could no longer make waves at this time, there was a powerful Mongol Empire behind Tuo Lei. For strategic reasons, Meng Gong did not want to fall out with Mongolia prematurely, so he decided to recruit Tuo Lei.
After hearing Meng Gong's words, the Mongolian soldier went to look for Tuo Lei.
When he saw Tuo Lei, he conveyed Meng Gong's words word for word.
After hearing this, Tuo Lei was furious and said: "I, Tuo Lei, the fourth prince of Mongolia and the son of Genghis Khan, have fought in all directions, how can I surrender!"
After saying that, Tuo Lei changed the topic, looked at the soldier angrily, and said: "As a Mongolian warrior, you actually conveyed such words. It is simply abominable."
After saying that, Tuo Lei hacked the soldier to death with one knife.
At the same time, a convoy appeared outside Fengzhou City. There were only a hundred people in the convoy, but they were escorted by three thousand troops.
When they arrived at Fengzhou City, they asked Meng Gong, Jiang Hai, Liu Yi, Zhang Zuo, Tahai Hazhen, Chen Li and other generals near Fengzhou to come out of the city to greet him in person.
Who is this person who has such great pomp and dignity?
"Your Majesty Meng Gong, I respectfully welcome the angel Eunuch Gao."
"My lord, Jiang Hai, respectfully welcomes the angel Eunuch Gao.",,,
It turns out that Zhao Yun's personal bodyguard Gao Shi from Huangmen is here. It's not surprising.
Gao Shi said with a friendly smile, "Generals, no courtesy, no courtesy."
The generals stood up straight, and Meng Gong came forward in person to invite Gao Shi into the city.
The group arrived at the government office and each sat down. Meng Gong introduced the current war situation to Gao Shi. Gao Shi listened carefully and did not interrupt in the middle.
After hearing this, Gao Shi smiled and said: "The officials are very happy to receive your report of victory. The officials said that all the generals were brave. The battle at Wudu Mountain showed the majesty of our Song Dynasty and the momentum that our Song Dynasty should have."
, so that Mongolia and the Jin Kingdom no longer dare to look down upon us, the Song Dynasty. The officials said that it was like returning to the Han and Tang Dynasties, so that other countries did not dare to look at it. "
Meng Gong, Jiang Hai and others were very excited. They did not expect that Zhao Yun would rate this battle so highly.
After being excited, Meng Gong felt a little embarrassed. He hesitated for a while, raised his hand to Gao Shi and said: "Eunuch Gao, after several battles, the Mongolian army is no longer a concern. If we launch a full-scale attack, it will not be difficult to destroy them, but
What I mean is that it is not difficult to destroy Tuo Lei, but if Genghis Khan is so angry that he fully attacks the Song Dynasty, it will be difficult."
The name of a man is like the shadow of a tree. Genghis Khan's name is so big that even if others have not fought with him, they will be afraid of him.
Meng Gong has always been famous for his calmness and composure, so he has naturally been thinking about the development of the situation after defeating Tuo Lei.
At this time, what Meng Gong was most worried about was that Zhao Yun ordered the annihilation of the remaining Tuo Lei troops under the favorable situation. In this way, he would have to fight even if he didn't want to fight.
"Hehehe,,,"
After hearing this, Gao Shi laughed a few times and said: "General Meng really wanted to go with the officials. The officials also hoped to save Tuo Lei's life, and then the officials could meet with Genghis Khan to discuss the harmonious coexistence between the two parties."
.”
"What, the officials want to meet with Genghis Khan?"
Meng Gong was surprised, and Jiang Hai and others also looked sideways with surprise on their faces. If what Gao Shi said is true, then Zhao Yun's courage and confidence cannot but be admired.
Gao Shi nodded and said: "This is true, is it possible that our family still dares to speculate on the official's intentions?"
After finishing speaking, Gao Shi said with a serious face: "We came here this time just to convey the wishes of the officials. The officials hope that the generals will keep Tuo Lei alive and have a good future."
As a bargaining chip in negotiations with Genghis Khan.
The officials also know that the generals fought hard and finally gained the upper hand, but they were unable to kill the enemy generals in one battle. They were worried that you would not be able to think about it, so they ordered us to come in person to show the trust and respect the officials have for the generals and also to show their trust and respect for the generals.
I hope you generals will understand that the country, the country, and the country are the most important thing in everything."
Meng Gong was very excited and said: "The official family has great ambitions, and the ministers dare not obey orders!"
After that, Meng Gong put forward his own suggestion, saying: "If Tuo Lei is captured, I am afraid that due to his strong character, he will choose to commit suicide, and then there will be no possibility of negotiation between Song and Meng.
It is better for our army to encircle it several times, reduce its strength, and then control it in one place to prevent it from escaping."
Gao Shi said with a smile: "The officials have said that if the general is out, you will not accept your orders. Everything will be done according to the will of the general."
"well."
Meng Gong said two good words in a row, and a stone fell from his heart.
Then, Meng Gong issued an order to order multiple armies to attack the remnants of the tow mine army in order to reduce the number of the tow mine army and make it easier to control.
After a series of attacks and battles, the Song army finally succeeded in reducing the remaining Tuolei troops to only about 3,000 people.
These three thousand people not only have few horses, but also all of them are injured and have no fighting spirit. If the Song army really launches a decisive battle, I am afraid that they will not be able to defeat the Song army of several thousand people.
At this time, an encirclement plan was formed against them. Jiang Hai, Jiang Wanzai, Peng Yibin and others narrowed the encirclement, and finally compressed the remaining tow mines into one place, and ordered people to dig trenches on the outside to prevent sudden attacks.
In order to prevent the remaining Tuo Lei troops from starving to death, Meng Gong would use a trebuchet to throw food at them every few days.
However, these foods can only prevent them from starving to death. As for attacking and breaking out, they don't even think about it. They can't even eat enough. They have the intention but don't have the strength.
Faced with such a tragic situation, Tuo Lei was unable to do anything. He tried to fight out several times, but Meng Gong's plan was too perfect, and the soldiers of the Song army were too fearless to die. He lost his troops several times and failed.
Return.
With no other choice, Tuo Lei could only resign himself to fate.
