549. Chapter 548 The wind is confused and the smoke rises 28
November of the twelfth year of the Yuan Dynasty was the most miserable time in Changzhou. It had experienced a surrender, a rebellion and a massacre. Changzhou, which was also one of the largest cities in the south of the Yangtze River, would not have the prosperity it had before the war in a short time.
The dead cannot come back to life, and the people who are not dead will continue to live.
The little boy's father is dead, but the head is in the mountain of human heads. Displacement of heads is unacceptable to the Han people, so the mountain of human heads, which demonstrates the Mongolian military exploits, was buried in the big pit together with the headless corpses.
among.
There is also a complete corpse in the pit. That corpse is that of one of the Changzhou generals who resisted the Yuan army at that time.
Boyan said that he wanted to show that man how many people he had killed.
The little boy's mother was lame in one leg, but fortunately she still had a pair of hands. Arnold asked Ulan to send some silver coins to their family, hoping that they could survive this cold winter.
The Yuan army left part of its garrison in Changzhou, and then the army set out again. The next destination was Lin'an, the most prosperous capital of the Southern Song Dynasty.
Boyan's original plan was to wait for Ali Hague and other armies to join forces and attack Lin'an City. He waited until December.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and it seems impossible to return to Dadu to celebrate the New Year this year.
Even so, Arnold was still looking forward to celebrating the New Year in the military camp for the first time. She even thought about taking advantage of this truce to go back to Diaoyu Mountain, but in the end she gave up the idea.
This period was the most tense moment in the Southern Song Dynasty. The Southern Song Dynasty was in chaos due to the attack of the Yuan army. Bandits, deserters, and ordinary people who were driven to a dead end by the war were full of hidden dangers.
Although she was worried about her parents in Diaoyu Mountain, she believed even more that her father had the ability to make Diaoyu Mountain the last place in Dayuan to be captured.
Time flies by quickly, and it’s the end of the year in a blink of an eye.
The Chinese New Year in the military camp is more unique. The general and the soldiers spend it together.
On New Year's Eve, Boyan's daughter Narentoya came to the military camp. What she brought with her was a letter from Qianhe to Arnold and a pack of Arnold's favorite food.
Most of the troops in the military camp are men, and they are a team composed of Mongolians and some people from Jiangbei. There are Semu people and Han people. The Mongolian people did not originally have a New Year, but they only have a festival "White Moon Festival" that is very similar to the Spring Festival of the Han people.
, and the Khan has already ruled the entire Han area in Jiangbei, so he will also celebrate the New Year with the Han people.
Nowadays, in Jiangnan, there are more Han people.
However, this was a year of war, a year in which the Han people in Jiangnan suffered from separation and fear. Many people often woke up from their sleep, fearing that everything would change when they woke up.
Every time the Yuan army occupied a city, more Han people would feel depressed. Only when a country can no longer protect itself will they learn to cherish the peace of the past.
There was a large-scale massacre of the city in Changzhou. Boyan used rumors to capture many cities. Although the rest were resisting, they no longer dared to surrender.
Lin'an City was getting closer and closer, but at this time everyone stopped attacking to celebrate a new moment.
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Arnold held a bowl of dumplings in his hand and sighed that time passed so quickly. But before this sigh passed, another news came.
In the thirteenth year of the Yuan Dynasty, before the first lunar month, a guest from the Southern Song Dynasty was welcomed into the military camp.
