The copper and iron ore produced in these places has excellent quality, and the refined iron is one of the best in the entire Dayue.

The Sima family, who is in charge of Tanzhou, also owns these treasure pots. Over the years, they have accumulated a lot of wealth. Although the 50,000 Tanzhou soldiers under Sima Ren have never fought on the battlefield, they are still sick with the elderly, weak and sick.

The remnants are not equal, but on the contrary, among the local towns in Dayue, this unit is the best equipped because they do not lack strategic materials such as copper and iron, and because they possess these things,

The state is not very elbowed by the central government.

In addition to Pingyang Prefecture, Tanzhou also has Luning Prefecture, known as the Jiangnan outside the Great Wall. Luning has eleven counties under its jurisdiction, almost all of which are large grain-producing counties. The grain produced is sufficient to supply the entire Tanzhou and the entire Tanzhou

, Except for these two prefectures, Huaian Prefecture is the worst, with many mountains and very few arable land. It does not have rich mineral deposits like Pingyang. It is considered to be very poor, but Huaian Prefecture is the entire

The largest recruitment place for soldiers in Tanzhou, the people here have no other way out, so it has become a tradition to join the army and eat food. Among the ten Tanzhou soldiers, six or seven came from Huaian Prefecture.

It can be said that Tanzhou can provide it with whatever the Mongolian people lack. If Luzhou is lost, Dayue Shangjing will not be moved. However, if Tanzhou is lost and falls into the hands of the Mongolian people, it will inevitably shock Shangjing.

It is conceivable that the emperor was furious. When the emperor was angry, blood flowed. Thinking of the power of this, the civil and military officials in Tanzhou gathered in the hall were silent.

The imperial edict on the table was there, and everyone could hear the decree clearly. At the latest, until March next year, the imperial army would be in charge of the fourth prince Li Xiao, and the general Feng Congyi, who was the commander of the army, would arrive in Tanzhou.

, in order to defeat the Mongolian army and drive them back to the desert. If Tanzhou is thrown away before this, the fourth prince Li Xiao will be in danger of being killed when he arrives.

"Sir, Tanzhou has 50,000 troops, and there are strong cities like Yumen Pass and Tanzhou City. It is probably not easy for the Mongolian army to conquer them. What's more, the Mongolian people have never been good at siegeing cities and sieges, just us

It is not difficult to fight with him, but to hold on to the city and stick to it until March next year. If you retreat without fighting, you will be afraid that the Fourth Master will not be able to explain it at that time!" He Guoguang, the leader of Tanzhou, stood up and bowed his hand.

road.

"Mr. He is right!" Tanzhou President Shi Wenfeng also echoed: "Tanzhou is not as rich as Luzhou. Its production is rich. If it falls into the hands of the Mongolian army, it will definitely be like a tiger, especially Pingyang Prefecture, which is on the verge of Yumen Pass. If we give up these places,

Then the three major mines will definitely fall into the hands of the Mongolian army. This is what the Mongolian army dreams of, and if one rises and the other falls, we will fall into trouble. Lord Sima has to worry about this!"

Sima Ren was calm and kept his beardless. He Guoguang and Shi Wenfeng were the number two and three figures in Tanzhou. He opposed his actions in unison, which made him a little annoyed. These two people have been suppressed by themselves in Tanzhou, but now they are

I wanted to take the opportunity to jump a few times, but unfortunately, if I don’t have the strength, I’m looking for death.

Ignoring the two, Sima Ren turned to look at the command history of the Tanzhou Army, his fourth brother Sima Zhi, "Fourth brother, you are the commander of the Tanzhou Army. Tell me, if we stick to Tanzhou, can we defend it?

”

Sima Zhi, who was in his early fifties, stood up, "My Tanzhou army is not bad, and its training is not bad, but the biggest problem is that it has never been on the battlefield to fight. Neither soldiers nor officers have any combat experience.

If you defend the city wall, it's okay, but if you drag it out to fight in the field, it's afraid it's difficult to resist the Mongolian army like a wolf or a tiger. If you can defend the city wall, you can still fight. If the city wall is broken, you will inevitably be defeated like a mountain.

.”

Sima Zhi looked at Sima Rui on the side, "Arui and the Mongolian army faced the enemy head-on, and they should have a deep understanding."

Sima Rui nodded and clasped his fists and said, "Uncle, the fourth uncle is right. Mengqi is in the field, and it is indeed unparalleled in the world. If there is no force that is far better than the opponent, it will be difficult to withstand their impact."

Sima Ren looked at He Guoguang and Shi Wenfeng, "You both heard it, sir, you guys, although I have 50,000 soldiers in Tanzhou, but I am not a match for the Mongolian army."

He Guoguang shrugged, "I just heard General Sima Zhi say that as long as he can defend the city wall, he can defend the enemy. Lord Sima, can't our 50,000 troops still defend the city wall?"

Hearing He Guoguang grabbed Sima Zhi's words and held his head tightly, Sima Ren sneered: "We are in control of the city, while the Mongolian army is mobile and flexible outside. If they divide their troops and attack Pingyang, Lu Ning and other places respectively.

, Can we go out of the city to fight? If we don't go out, we will sit and watch these places fall. If we go out of the city, we will have to fight for life and death with our opponents. If we lose the field battle, we will inevitably be defeated. Lord He, at that time, I was afraid that we would be able to get water from the bamboo basket.

It was empty and nothing was left."

He Guoguang shouted: "Does we just leave in a mess without fighting? Lord Sima, how can we deal with it when the Emperor pursues it?"

Sima Ren sneered and said, "Of course you, Lord He, don't have to bear it. I, Sima, take it with you."

"You..." He Guoguang was furious and stood up suddenly, brushed his sleeves, turned around and walked out, "Sima Ren, you are afraid of the enemy and are afraid to respond to the battle. I want to join you, you are waiting.

Bar!"

Sima Ren laughed, "Please give me a gift!"

He Guoguang was furious and turned around and left. Everyone in the hall looked at each other. The magistrate and the other party turned against each other on the spot, but nothing everyone expected.

Sima Ren sat down as if nothing had happened, "He Guoguang, just a corrupt scholar, what did you know! Everyone didn't care about him." He picked up the teacup and said, "Drink tea, let's continue to discuss."

As soon as he finished speaking, a scream suddenly came from outside the hall. Everyone could hear clearly that it was the voice of He Guoguang that changed greatly. Shi Wenfeng's face turned like earth. His hand fell to the ground with a soft teacup.

It fell to pieces.

Even Sima Zhi, Sima Rui and others looked at Sima Ren in a daze. Obviously, they didn't know that a state would not be able to do anything. Although they did not have much real power, they were the senior officials in the state, second only to the prefectural state.

He is an official affiliated with the center, and Sima Ren actually killed him as soon as he said he could kill him.

Sima Ren's face was still, and he slowly drank a few sips of tea, gently put down the tea cup, "Come on, let me change my tea. Lord Shi, tell me, are we going to fight or leave?

”

Shi Wenfeng's hands and feet were shaking, his lips stammered for a while, and finally said dejectedly: "I will follow the instructions of the magistrate."

Sima Ren nodded with satisfaction and glanced at everyone in the hall, "Who else has any disagreement?"

Everyone was silent.

"Since that's the case, then it's decided to retreat to Luning. We will defend Luning. I have sent someone to Luning to prepare. Yumen Pass will win us some time." Sima Ren said.

"As the commander of the magistrate!" Everyone bowed and said.

Most of them left, leaving only Sima Zhi, Sima Rui and other confidants in the hall. Sima Ren gently rubbed the sun, leaned on the chair of the Grand Master, and silently said.

After a while, Sima Zhi finally couldn't help it, "Brother, I can't figure it out!"

Sima Ren opened his eyes and said, "If you can't figure out anything, even if you ask, you are all your own family, so there is no need to hide it."

"Does my brother really think we can't defend Tanzhou? My 50,000-year-old man in Tanzhou is actually enough to fight the Mongolians. Tanzhou is the origin of our Sima family. Why is it for giving up like this? Brother, are you thinking about it?

What?" Sima Zhi asked dissatisfiedly. "And although He Guoguang was disrespectful to his elder brother, he was also a third-rank official. He was an official directly under the jurisdiction of Shangjing. If the elder brother killed him like this, he would probably bring disaster to the Sima family."

"I have been in Tanzhou for decades. Seeing that Tanzhou is gradually prospering, our Sima family also takes Tanzhou as the foundation and rises step by step. Do you think you can bear it?" Sima Ren said lightly.

"Since that's the case, why not fight?" Sima Zhi said angrily.

With a long sigh, Sima Ren stood up, took a step back and forth in the hall, looking at everyone, "You are all branches and leaves on this tree in my Sima family. If there is the Sima family, you will be there. If the Sima family is defeated, you will naturally

There is no good fruit to eat. I will tell you something clearly today, and everyone is prepared in their hearts."

Everyone looked at Sima Ren and knew that something big must be happening.

"Compared with this war with the Mongols, another major event in our Great Yue is much more important than that." Sima Ren said: "Although the Mongols are aggressive, they are just a disease of mustard tinea. Even if they succeed for a while,

It will not shake my great Yue fundamentals, but this matter is related to the prosperity, honor and disgrace of our Sima family in the next decades. Therefore, although I am extremely reluctant to leave Tanzhou, I can only give up in the face of this big event."

Sima Zhi looked at the eldest brother in a daze.

"Uncle, are you fighting for the throne?" Sima Rui said with some difficulty.

"Very good, you can think of this, which shows that you have made some progress!" Sima Ren nodded in admiration, "If this time the uncle came to supervise the battle, even if my Tanzhou soldiers were defeated, I would still defend them.

Tanzhou, but this time the Fourth Master was born, so I can only give up.”

"Uncle is playing a huge game of chess. We are just a piece on this game. As the times come, we have become the most important piece in the hands of the uncle. It is related to whether the uncle can win.

How dare we be careless? Our Sima family has long shared honor and disgrace with the uncle. If the uncle wins, our Sima family will leap to the sky. If the Fourth Master wins, even if we fight for the Dayue in Tanzhou, we will be able to fight in the future.

There was inevitably a liquidation." Sima Ren's eyes flashed with cold light, "So, I can't resist the enemy's attack in Tanzhou for the Fourth Master. What I want is to leave a mess for him and drag him over for as long as possible.

The border battle with the Mongolians creates conditions for the uncle.”
