False Eunuch: With Many Children, I'm as Happy as a Fish in Water

Something's wrong!

Everything is weird!

Lu Xiufu happily led the defeated troops to General Lin's army camp.

After entering the camp.

When I saw the style of the flags and the shapes of the soldiers' armor, I realized that they were not the Song Army's standard!

Especially the black flag made Lu Xiufu's heart sink.

Where did this General Lin come from?

Several bad thoughts flashed through Lu Xiufu's mind.

When he came to Lin Chen's military tent and saw the young general, Lu Xiufu's face was full of astonishment.

He didn't expect that the person who could kill Kublai Khan would be so young.

"Envoy Lu, is there something on my face?"

When Lu Xiufu heard what the other party said, his eyes turned slightly sharp.

Because Lin Chen called Lu Xiufu "envoy" instead of his colleagues' official names.

In other words.

The other party claimed that he was not an official of the Southern Song Dynasty.

A smile appeared on Lu Xiufu's face. He wanted to ask about Lin Chen's background.

Before he could speak, Lin Chen saw what Lu Xiufu was thinking, and an inexplicable smile flashed across his face and he said, "I am a person from Sichuan and Shu."

Guo Xiang picked him up in the land of Sichuan and Shu. It is not wrong to say that he was from Sichuan and Shu.

"Sichuan and Shu?"

Lu Xiufu thought more.

He thought about it several times, but he never thought that there was an official family named Lin in Sichuan and Sichuan.

If the other party can pull up such a large army, it must be a complicated identity.

However, Lu Xiufu could not guess that Lin Chen came from the outside world.

After thinking to no avail, Lu Xiufu had no choice but to make insinuations and test Lin Chen's attitude towards the Southern Song Dynasty court.

According to what Lu Xiufu said.

If Lin Chen is willing to submit to the Southern Song Dynasty, he will definitely not lose his status as a prince.

indeed.

The situation in the Southern Song Dynasty is almost over.

If Lin Chen led his people to submit to the Southern Song Dynasty, the Southern Song Dynasty court could still survive.

Although it is possible that the other party will use this power to sway the government, Lu Xiufu understands that this is the best solution at present.

However, Lu Xiufu ignored one point.

That means the person in front of you has no intention of being a minister.

"Envoy Lu, don't be anxious. We will discuss this matter after I finish dealing with the Mongolian army in front of me." Lin Chen smiled and said nothing.

At the same time, he stopped Lu Xiufu from wanting to continue talking, and ordered people to prepare a residence to accommodate Lu Xiufu and his party.

But Lu Xiufu is not a simple person after all.

He immediately tried to find a way to send all the information he knew back to Lin'an court.

As soon as the news about Lu Xiufu arrived, all the princes in the Southern Song Dynasty were shocked.

Many ministers who had been writing letters of surrender at home suddenly became energetic.

That means that Lin Chen must lead his army to serve the imperial court!

When the Queen Mother Xie Daoqing learned the news, she quickly issued an order to reward Lin Chen with an official position.

have to say.

Xie Daoqing worked hard to grab Lin Chen's last straw.

The Protector of the Country was ranked first-class, and he was responsible for the affairs of the generals and the anti-Mongolian military strategy. He was granted almost all the official titles that could be given.

But just as the favor edict from the Southern Song Dynasty court was on its way, the Mongolian army, which had been trapped here for a long time, also began to take action.

These Mongolian troops were divided into two factions.

One group planned to leave this place and go up the river, trying to grab enough ships to cross the Yangtze River and return to the north.

The group planned to lead the army to the hinterland of the Southern Song Dynasty, and their main goal was to destroy the fish and the net with one hand.

However.

Before these Mongolian generals could discuss a general charter, civil strife broke out.

at night.

A Han army numbering as many as 30,000 rebelled.

In this department, most of them are under the command of Lu Wenhuan's old department.

But no one expected it.

This rebellion provoked more Han troops to join it.

The reason is quite simple.

The Mongolian army was short of food, and the few supplies of food and grass were given priority to the Mongolian soldiers and nobles.

As for them Han soldiers, they were not treated as human beings at all.

Hunger can often drive people to do irrational things.

In addition, under Lin Chen's instruction, Shen Lian had contact with some northern Han princes who commanded the Han army.

The latter expressed their willingness to surrender in order to survive.

So the Mongolian generals have not yet realized what happened.

Due to the civil strife, Lin Chen led the Yulin Guards and the main force of 30,000 newly recruited infantry to launch an attack.

With the cooperation of Lu Wenhuan's old troops, the Mongolian army was caught off guard.

As Lu Xiufu was the envoy, Lin Chen did not restrict his personal freedom.

This also gave him the opportunity to see how the Habayashi Guards treated their soldiers.

Don’t say anything else.

Just being able to eat enough every day was enough to win the surrender of these defeated armies of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Lin Chen had a lot of internal support, but the Mongolian army had no intention of fighting at all.

In less than half a day of fierce fighting, the few hundred thousand Mongolian soldiers were divided into two.

Most of them fled towards the bank of the Yangtze River, looking for boats to cross the river.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a waste of effort.

Brothers Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun patrolled the river day and night. How could these Mongolian soldiers find a boat to cross the river?

As for a small number of Han and Mongolian soldiers, under the command of a Han general named Liu Zheng, they headed for the hinterland of the Southern Song Dynasty.

This man was also a general in the Southern Song Dynasty. He was good at strategy, riding and shooting.

He once fought in Sichuan and made many military exploits.

But he didn't want Liu Zheng to hear that Lu Wende and Yu Xing were colluding and planned to frame him.

Not to mention that Jia Sidao was in power at that time, and many Southern Song generals were imprisoned or forced to death.

Therefore, the helpless Liu Zheng chose to lead his 300,000 soldiers and civilians to surrender to Mongolia.

After Liu Zheng entered Mongolia, he was highly valued by Kublai Khan.

According to the original history, this man made great military exploits for Kublai Khan's demise in the Southern Song Dynasty.

When Lin Chen learned that Liu Zheng led more than 20,000 troops into the hinterland of the Southern Song Dynasty, he didn't have much reaction.

at the moment.

The Mongolian army collapsed, and Lu Wenhuan's old troops came to surrender, so there was no shortage of that.

For a while.

The number of soldiers under Lin Chen's command swelled to an astonishing number.

Two hundred and seventy thousand people!

If Lin Chen hadn't used the reward packages to provide a large amount of food, grass and baggage, he probably wouldn't be able to support so many soldiers.

but.

There are more soldiers, but there are also more people who are a mixed bag of beasts and horses.

Especially these old subordinates of Lu Wenhuan, each one is more useless than the last.

In the past, I could vote for Kublai Khan, but now I can vote for myself.

He might be able to betray Lin Chen later and turn his back on him.

Therefore, after Lin Chen ate so many soldiers in one go, he did not make any follow-up actions. He just changed direction and headed towards several state capitals that fell into the hands of the Mongols.

These state capitals had previously taken away most of their defenders, and were as if they were undefended in front of Lin Chen's army.

As a result, most of the territory of the Southern Song Dynasty that was occupied by Mongolia was "recovered" again.

at the same time.

Lin Chen began to add sand to Lu Wenhuan's old team.

Wang Yuan looked at the new armor on his body and suddenly fell into a trance.

Before the past two months, he was still a refugee, living a life without a fixed residence and no food to eat.

But what about now?

But he became a military commander, ranking in the seventh rank of military rank!

Yes.

Lin Chen promoted some of the newly recruited soldiers with outstanding performance to middle and low-level officers to replace Lu Wenhuan's old army.

Like Wang Yuan and others, their loyalty to Lin Chen is guaranteed.

As for Lu Wenhuan, how could he not see what Lin Chen was doing?

But what can be done?

He just hoped that Lin Chen could save his life in the end.

But when a secret letter from the Southern Song Dynasty arrived in Lu Wenhuan's hands, he saw hope.

According to what was said in the letter, the court hoped that he, Lu Wenhuan, would lead his troops to "abandon darkness and join the light"!
