Then everyone hurried out of the government office and headed towards the south gate.

When they arrived outside the south gate, Monto led the soldiers of the Tianjian Army to be closer to Weinan County.

Although Liu Zhuwen led the cavalry in the two major military regions of Dali and Shuzhong to take down Jingzhao Prefecture and make a lot of losses, the Tianjian Army still had about seven or eight thousand soldiers at this time.

This looks quite vast.

Xi Gaoxuan, Xu Mukun and others were very happy to see the banner of the Tianjian Army clearly.

Xu Mukun said to the generals of Bai Jinjun such as Ling Chengzhi: "It is the Tianjian Army soldier of our Dali Military Region!"

Ling Chengzhi and others were also overjoyed.

They have been worried about the Yuan army coming these days, but now that the Tianjian Army has arrived, this worry is naturally fading a lot.

The Tianjian Army is an imperial guard in the Dali Military Region, and its combat effectiveness is far from comparable to those of their Bai Jinjun.

As long as the Yuan army does not invade much, Weinan County will definitely be worry-free.

The plan to connect Weinan and Lantian counties that Liu Zhuwen had formulated before has been successful now.

When Demonto led the Tianjian Army soldiers to the city, Ling Chengzhi and other generals of Bai Jinjun quickly went down the city and personally invited the Tianjian Army soldiers to the city.

The arrival of this large army can be said to have made Bai Jinjun and the people in Weinan County feel more at ease.

After entering the city, Ling Chengzhi invited Monto and others to the government office and asked Monto to sit in the main seat.

They sat in the main hall and spoke out about the current situation of Jingzhaofu Road.

Shi Kaiji led more than 80,000 people from Shuzhong Military Region to station in Languan.

Liu Zhuwen's Dali Military Region was stationed in Lantian with five imperial guards. In addition to the Tianjian Army, there were about 40,000 losses in the previous attack on Jingzhao Prefecture.

Then there are the Tianjian Army and Bai Jinjun in Weinan County, which together are almost over 10,000.

The Chai Liren army had about 150,000.

In terms of military strength, there is not much difference between the two sides.

Therefore, the generals of the Tianjian Army such as Monto looked quite relaxed.

Now Bai Jinjun has no worries, it depends on how Liu Shuai and Shi Shuai plan to fight this battle next.

With the combat effectiveness of the Dali Imperial Army and the Shuzhong Military Region Army, in terms of hard power, it is definitely better than that of the Yuan army.

Moreover, as long as the name of Bai Jinjun gradually spreads, I think there will only be more rebels behind the Yuan army in the future.

At that time, the Yuan army will inevitably be in a state of confusion.

In this battle, the chances of the Song army winning were extremely high.

They only held discussions in the government office, obviously they didn’t know the current situation in Jingzhao Mansion.

After Chai Liren's army took over Jingzhao Prefecture, Chai Liren strictly arranged the army around Jingzhao Prefecture.

In the mountains, official roads and other places outside the counties around Jingzhao Prefecture, the Yuan army's posts were densely packed.

The order Chai Liren gave to his subordinates was to "defend the Jingzhao to the death."

At this moment, he didn't dare to have any thoughts on destroying the soldiers of Shuzhong and Dali.

Because he also understood that with the 80,000-yuan army of Jingzhao Prefecture being wiped out, he could no longer defeat the Song army in terms of strength.

Only by defending Jingzhao and waiting for the real money to take charge of the court to come up with a countermeasure, or sending Yuan troops to come over, can he break the embarrassing situation on Jingzhao Road at this time.

Before this, if he went to fight Shuzhong, the Dali army's idea would be no different from dying.

Even though he had been in Zhongdu for many years, he had heard of the names of Shi Kaiji and Liu Zhuwen.

Especially Liu Zhuwen, he is the most popular marshal in the Song Dynasty.

His promotion path was much faster than that of Yue Peng and Su Quandang.

At this time, the imperial envoy sent by Zhenjin from it finally arrived at Jingzhao Mansion.

After learning the news, Chai Liren personally led the high-ranking generals in the army to outside the northern city gate to welcome the imperial envoy.

"Mr. Hu!"

The imperial envoy brought about hundreds of imperial guards to the city gate. Before he could dismount, Chai Liren took the lead in saying hello.

This imperial envoy named Hu was not a eunuch beside Zhen Jin, and he was quite familiar with Chai Liren.

They have been officials in the same dynasty for many years.

Moreover, before Chai Liren took charge, the influence of this imperial envoy in the Yuan Dynasty should still be above the retired Chai Liren.

Hu Che, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War of the Yuan Dynasty.

Hu Che was also an old minister of the Yuan Dynasty. Even when Kublai Khan was alive, he was already the left minister of the Ministry of War.

At the critical moment of war between the two countries, this position became even more important.

Although Hu Che was not the auxiliary minister left by Kublai Khan to Zhen Jin, his status in the court was only second only to those auxiliary ministers.

He immediately bowed to Chai Liren, "Ship Chai! It's been a long time since I was gone!"

Then he turned over and dismounted.

Chai Liren asked Hu Che to go to the city, and asked, "Did Mr. Hu escort food and grass to our army?"

He looked behind, his eyes a little confused.

Hu Che came with hundreds of imperial guards, which was not like a escort of food and grass.

Chai Liren just said this, but he just pulled the topic apart.

Hu Che chuckled and said, "Shis Chai is joking. You don't know that I am an imperial envoy. Is there any reason for the imperial envoy to escort food and grass?"

Chai Liren also laughed.

Hu Che said again: "The army escorting food and grass has stopped halfway. I am here to convey the emperor's will to you, Shuai Chai."

Chai Liren was slightly moved, "I wonder what the emperor's will?"

Hu Che said, "Let's wait until the government official, but I think this should be good news for you, Shuai Chai."

Chai Liren's pace quietly accelerated a little.

Go to the main hall of the government office.

He only asked the maid to go down to pour tea, and then looked at Hu Che.

Hu Che, who was about fifty years old, gently stroked his beard, his face became a little solemn, and he said, "The West Road Marshal Chai Liren received the order..." Chai Liren sorted out his clothes and knelt down in front of Hu Che.

Hu Chedao: "The emperor ordered Chai Liren to lead his army to retreat temporarily. If the Song army pursues, he will deal with him and cannot fight to the decisive battle!"

"retreat?"

Chai Liren said in a daze: "Why did the emperor let me retreat?"

Hu Che frowned, his expression became calm again, and said, "Sir Chai doesn't know that the emperor's imperial edict was issued after he learned that Jingzhao Mansion had fallen.

He was worried that it would be difficult for you to lead your army to fight against the Song army that occupied the Jingzhao Prefecture Road, so he wanted you to deal with it.

The emperor had ordered people to go to the grassland and asked Prince Naiyan to negotiate with the grassland vassal states and asked him to send troops to help.

Before this, the emperor didn't want to see you fight the Song army in a decisive battle."

"Yes, but now Jingzhao Mansion is in our hands..." Chai Liren said.

Hu Che heard this and said, "This should be beyond the emperor's expectations. Scheme Chai, you might as well wait.

I think the emperor should have a new imperial edict issued soon."

He also knew that Jingzhao Mansion was in the hands of Chai Liren, and it was completely different from the hands of the Song army.

Therefore, this oral order should be counted.

The emperor had no reason to let Chai Liren give up Jingzhao Mansion for nothing. After all, Jingzhao Mansion was a barrier to the heavy city.

If you are dealing with the Song army here, you can consume the time of the Song army anywhere.
