Chapter 65
.The low-hanging clouds are in the sky, and they are like lead blocks. They seem to be able to touch them with just reaching out. If you pinch them, water will flow out. But undoubtedly, the northerly, the colder the weather will become. The same, the colder the heart of Prince Kublai Khan is.
He curled his lips and lowered his head and no one looked at his frown brows. He hid the pain that was difficult to express in words. All this fell in the eyes of Zhang Wenqian who was beside him, and there was a little sympathy in his heart. He was not for anything else. It was the care of Prince Kublai Khan for so many years.
"Who can be ruthless, even though he is an invader, he has been very good at seeing his situation in this way for me for so many years, and it is also pitiful."
The feelings in Zhang Wenqian's heart cannot be described in words. Once upon a time, the Han people in the eyes of the Mongolians were inferior people, and the Southern people were inferior people. Han people were included in the hands of the Jin people because of Qin Hui's words "The Southern people return to the South, and the Northern people return to the North", and it would be better not to say the sorrow in his heart. People who do not have the four words "Chinese nation" in their hearts will definitely not be able to understand.
"Prince, suck a cigar"
From the small cigarette box he carried with him, Zhang Wenqian handed a cigar to Prince Kublai, and then drew a match to light a fire for Prince Kublai, who was silent along the way. Then he sighed softly. He also lit a cigar for himself, silently swallowing the clouds and fog.
"How can I bring this remnant soldier back to Mongolia?"
This is a question that Zhang Wenqian has been thinking about along the way. The ten thousand people in front of him were not even equipped with food and supplies. Everyone was under the attack of the Royal Navy of the "Huaxia Empire" and the Indian Ocean Fleet. They were as anxious as a dog who was stranded for fear that the cavalry of the "Huaxia Army" would chase them, and give them a cannon to taste it.
If the Mongolian army thinks that they can fight bravely with their numerical advantage, then the attack of the opponent's navy will not be able to raise the courage to resist because they do not allow others to resist. The only thing they do is to tear people into pieces with their artillery fire directly
This is the Indian Ocean Fleet of the "Huaxia Empire" Royal Navy, which gave the Mongolian army the view they could retreat from the line of fire, but there were only some musketeers and cavalry, and they did not have much supplies except for the ammunition on their bodies, and they did not even have horse materials. Although Chang'an is still in the hands of the Mongolians at this moment, it was necessary to go back through the entire mountain.
It started to rain lightly in the evening. The cold in the valley followed the bluestone paths on the ridges and the fires raised by the Mongolian soldiers hiding under the cliffs could not relieve the cold caused by the lack of food at night. It was not only because of the lack of food, but also because of the cold from the bottom of the heart. According to Zhang Wenqian's observation, many Mongolian soldiers did not even dare to sleep at night.
Not to mention others, even if he recalled the artillery bombardment that took away ten thousand lives on the battlefield by himself, he was also very scared. He never knew that the powerful hot weapons could reach such a level. A person who had not endured the artillery bombardment had such a mentality. Then you can imagine what kind of mentality the people who escaped from artillery bombardment on the battlefield
The light rain at night, the cool spring breeze even guarded the bonfire lit by the guards, which made Zhang Wenqian, who was not strong, shook his body and was their supper next to the bonfire. It was from Huaxia Island, with the function of cooking, the horse meat of the injured horse, and the prey that was caught along the way. As for the food, there was no food at all. As long as you think about the composition of the food, Zhang Wenqian felt that he had no appetite.
With these, they have to go to Hanzhong, but what will they do after they get there?
According to the instructions I received most, I must try to urge Prince Kublai to return to the capital of the Mongolian Khanate, the purpose of going to Halehelin, is self-evident. I still want Prince Kublai and Zhao Xu to fight.
"In this big defeat, the prince's strength has been damaged. How should he deal with Zhao Xu after he goes back?"
Thinking of these troublesome problems, Zhang Wenqian tightly saw that when he was running away, Zhang Wenqian did not bring his own station wagon, so naturally he had no clothes to add. When he felt the coldness was unbearable, the frown Prince Kublai Khan suddenly uncovered his cloak and covered him with Zhang Wenqian.
"this……"
He was still waiting to speak, but Prince Kublai Khan had already pressed his hands tightly on his shoulder from afar, and then continued to sit down and remained silent towards the bonfire. Zhang Wenqian felt the heat in his heart, but he didn't know what to say to Prince Kublai Khan, suddenly a sound of horse hooves came.
People like frightened birds stood up one by one, and the sound coming from the horse's hooves looked like a small group of horses appeared in the darkness. It could be seen from the horseman's armor that it was the ranger behind. However, during the approach, no one dismounted according to the rules.
Those who are interested pulled out **** and looked behind them to pretend to be attacking the camp. They used to use it often when dealing with the Song army. So now, are there any surprise attack soldiers coming from behind? Although the night is dark, there are no people on the mountain roads where the eyes are at least, and there are no enemy troops approaching.
At this time, the ranger team that had not been dismounted was stopped, and then the person who stopped took down some Dongben from them. When he ran over quickly to see Prince Kublai, he had a look of panic and mourning expression on his face, as if the enemy had already arrived nearby.
"Prince, everyone in the Ranger Squad is dead."
Prince Kublai Khan, who was sitting by the bonfire, did not move. Instead, Zhang Wenqian came to the report army and reached out to take the letter and scolded him.
"Look at what you look like, you just lost a battle. Why do you have to do this kind of childlike behavior and have the prince to decide everything? You just do your own things."
In the great reprimand, all the Mongolian soldiers dared not make noise and in their intuition. Instead, they felt some relief in their hearts. After all, their prince, Kublai Khan, was not defeated because of this defeat. At least they still have hope and escaped from here alive.
Sometimes, hope does not exist objectively, but hope is always closely linked to confidence. Zhang Wenqian's reprimand shows that Prince Kublai Khan is still in control of the army, and this gives everyone hope.
