After Ali Hague issued a series of orders one after another, he stepped back and climbed the deck of the ship alone to look at the starry night sky, then looked at the lit coast, and then looked at the calm sea surface. His heart was filled with melancholy and helplessness. He could say that the current situation was clearer than anyone else, and naturally he knew what the outcome of this battle would be, but he had to do so.

At the same time, the troops sent to Chameng and Qiongzhou, and even to conquer Annan were actually not agreed. In fact, from the bottom of his heart, Ali Hague did not agree. Because he knew that although Jiangnan had been pacified, it was not calm. Uprisings under the banner of restoring the Song Dynasty were on the rise and fall of the Song Dynasty. What is most urgently needed at the moment should be to appease the people, resume production, quell the civil strife, rather than rushing to use troops everywhere.

As for Qiongzhou, Ali Hague thought that retaliation should be the priority, and at the same time blocked the coast and strictly prevented them from looting the mainland, they warned Chameng and Annan not to provide supplies to Qiongzhou. Qiongzhou was narrow and poor in terms of things, and could not afford hundreds of thousands of people, let alone raise troops and prepare for military affairs. If this continues, it will not take many years to trap them to death. Even if they do not surrender, they will not be exhausted.

But Kublai Khan rejected Ali Hague's suggestion and insisted on resolving the affairs of Annan and Qiongzhou as soon as possible with force. Then he appointed Huantuo as King of Zhennan, presided over the affairs of Huguang Province, and conquered the southern foreign countries. No matter how stupid Ali Hague was, he knew what was going on. Huantuo was Kublai Khan's beloved son, so he wanted to pass the throne of Khan to him. However, the Mongols valued military merits the most. If they had no military merits, even if they were passed on to him, it would cause dissatisfaction from the kings. Therefore, Ali Hague knew that this was a political war. As the left prime minister of Huguang Province, he had to not only calculate economic and military accounts, but also political accounts.

In this way, Ali Hague was forced to a dead end. Appointing a crown prince was a major matter for the country. Even if ten thousand people were unwilling to do so, he had to resolutely implement the Khan's will. Qiongzhou had to be beaten, and if he didn't fight, he had to fight. In desperation, he could only swallow this bowl of rice. He was completely at a disadvantage and was at a death. However, if he withdrew his troops, it would not only be his own failure, but also the failure of King Zhennan. Therefore, even if he was defeated, he had to persist, and then take the blame on himself. He was a villain and took it away.

Ali Hague understood that the emperor was dying and sank thousands of miles away. In order to establish an heir, Khan would not care about these losses. As for the fact that he was highly valued by Khan, it was only the tool in his hands. Killing or pardoning was in his mind, and it was not something he could figure out. But if he wanted to withdraw his troops, it would definitely be a dead end. Even if he destroyed an heir, he would destroy an heir, it would be unforgivable in any aspect. And these generals who were still fighting to the death on the beach, including himself, were just stepping stones for the new monarch to rise...

Zhao Bing was also settled the accounts at this time. He was the king of a country and not only had to calculate political accounts, but also economic accounts. This battle was a battle for Qiongzhou. Not to mention that the officers and soldiers who participated in the war had to pay double wages, and the food expenses were doubled. The dead officers and soldiers needed to receive money to pay, the injured officers and soldiers were cured, and the disabled were raised.

After the war, there are rewards and promotions, and money is needed to be used to cure the aftermath.

There is a saying in modern times that "a cannon fire is 10,000 taels of gold". The US emperor threw dozens of missiles in anger, but that was more than 50 million US dollars and turned into ashes, which was equivalent to the total fiscal revenue of a medium-sized county in China in one year. In this battle, rockets, flowering bullets and arrows were counted in tens of thousands, while damaged warships and armor and weapons had to be repaired and maintained. The money spent was like throwing out, and the seizures were far from enough to make up for their own efforts. Of course, from a political perspective, this victory could make Zhao Bing's position more stable, and of course Qiongzhou could also maintain a few years of peace. This can be said to be the biggest victory, and it is worth spending this money.

If Zhao Bing's initial wish was to be able to defend Qiongzhou and not even have a nest, then the battle situation is not over now, but based on his judgment, the winner has been decided. Since the bottom line has been satisfied, his mind will become alive again, hoping to gain greater benefits from the general. Politically, his reputation has spread, so that the remnants of the Song Dynasty knew that their emperor was still alive and the regime was still there, so they rushed to join us. Economically, although Guangxi is not very rich, the government and the upstarts of the Yuan Dynasty had money, and scavenging their homes was equivalent to beating the rich!

But the problem now is that these ministers do not support Zhao Bing's proposal, and they cannot work alone. However, the opportunity is rare, and I don't know when I will meet again after missing it. How can I convince these people to make him worry? What should I do? He thought for a long time and suddenly thought that since the few people support him now, the effect of expanding this range may be different.

"Your Majesty, it seems that there is civil strife in the enemy army opposite the defense ground of the rear army. They killed each other. Someone ran to the front of the formation and asked to open the gate of the village. The two commanders of Han and Zhuang had a dispute over this. Zhang Shushu did not dare to make a decision. Please ask Your Majesty to decide!" At this time, a guard entered the house and reported.

"Who is the one who came to surrender, and how many are there?" Zhao Bing asked anxiously after hearing this.

"Your Majesty, they claimed to be the Han army signing for the conquest, with about thousands, and some surrendered troops mixed with them." The guards turned around and reported.

"There are so many people!" Zhao Bing said in surprise.

"It is precisely because of the large number of people that Commander Han is worried about the enemy's fraud. Commander Zhuang thought he was too late and was killed by the enemy, so everyone started a dispute!" The guard reported.

"Go and bring the person who sent the message in!" Zhao Bing thought that he was not the person involved or the witness. How to judge whether it was true or not, they put this tricky thing into his hands and really thought he was a god. But he was still very happy, at least they still respected him very much.

The people who came to deliver the letter were brought in. According to the saying, the Yuan army was repelled several consecutive attacks, with great casualties. Then the Yuan army attacked, but they suddenly threw away their weapons with white flags and shouted that they were from southerners and wanted to surrender. Then the Yuan army sent troops to pursue them. Fierce conflict broke out between the two sides. As more and more people were involved, they became confused. They only raised their vigilance and did not attack. So more and more people fled to the front of the village, and they didn't know what to do.

"Let them open the gate to connect to the village, but they must be vigilant. In addition to throwing their carry-on weapons outside the village, a team of hundreds of people will be organized into the village one after another, and then opening a passage to quickly guide them outside the village. I will send troops to meet the constraints!" Zhao Bing thought for a while and said.

"Your Majesty, is this too risky? If there is a fraud, wouldn't it be a waste of trouble?" Lu Xiufu said cautiously after hearing this.

"No! If these people are later, they will be killed. Let's go and send an order!" Zhao Bing waved his hand and asked to send an order quickly.

"Your Majesty, isn't this too hasty?" Lu Xiufu saw that His Majesty did not allow him to tell him, so he issued an order to contain the so-called surrendered army. He was very dissatisfied. Of course, he was well-educated and did not look on his face.

"Left Prime Minister, the opportunity for war is fleeting. Now that the Yuan army has been defeated, you can't hesitate anymore. I think it's time to start a counterattack." Zhao Bing said lightly without giving him too much explanation.

"Counterattack?!" Lu Xiufu said in surprise.

"Yes, the enemy's repeated attacks failed, the morale of the army is no longer stable, and the reason why the defeat is like a mountain is overwhelming, I know the truth about Zuo's defeat." Zhao Bing said.

"Your Majesty, the centipede insect will die but not be stiff. Although the enemy has suffered heavy losses now, its strength is still there. Be careful that they will retaliate!" Lu Xiufu said.

"Haha, of course I know the reason why I am anxious to jump over the wall, but as long as we completely defeat their naval forces, the enemy trapped on the shore will be unable to advance or retreat, and they will not get any water. If they want to bite me, they may lose their strength!" Zhao Bing said with a smile.

"Your Majesty makes sense. As long as the enemy ship is destroyed, the Yuan army will inevitably be in chaos and the soldiers will have no fighting spirit!" Chen Zhongwei nodded in approval.

"Yes, the Tartars have always regarded the signing army as grass. They will be the driving force in every battle, and the casualties are the most serious. They are also in common sense. Those surrendered troops are probably already having different ambitions and will not fight hard at the critical moment of life and death." Xu Zongren also agreed with the emperor's view.

"I think what the Left Prime Minister said is reasonable, Your Majesty should be more cautious. You should know that Ali Hague can also conquer generals who are used to fighting, so you must not be reckless." Ying Jieyan stroked his beard and said.

"Well, what sir taught us is that we will first send the navy to launch an attack and cut off their retreat first. What do you think of the left prime minister?" Zhao Bing nodded. He knew that the old man's mind was not to embarrass Lu Xiufu, so he asked for his opinion knowingly.

"Your Majesty thinks this is more secure. You can order the navy to launch an attack and make the enemy in chaos first!" Lu Xiufu accepted this conservative opinion.

"Dear friends, I think the situation is clear now, and the enemy has put all its troops in Haikou. To be on the safe side, should we transfer all our troops north to prevent the enemy from counterattacking, so as to ensure that the city is foolproof?" Zhao Bing knew that Lu Xiufu was cautious in his actions, especially after taking office, he became more conservative in his actions, so he could only talk about some strategies.

"The current situation has proved that Your Majesty's initial judgment was correct. I thought the imperial guards in Yazhou could be transferred north, but what about the left prime minister?" Ying Jie Yan Yan said.

"Since the situation has been clear, I think it's OK." Lu Xiufu pondered for a moment.

"Okay, I'll order the right prime minister to immediately lead the three imperial guards in front of the hall to return to Qiongzhou Prefecture from Wan'an!" Zhao Bing said, "Tell the general to click the beacon, and order the navy to launch an attack, and encircle and annihilate the enemy navy."...

The Song army did not wait until dawn, nor until the tide rose, and the navy launched a full-scale attack. At dawn, the navy led by Chen Yi could not resist. The Qiongzhou navy killed transport fleet was full of supplies and troops that had not yet arrived on the island. Although they still had the ability to resist, the Song army did not fight them in close combat at all. Rockets, crossbows, bombarded one after another, and dragon ships interspersed and assaulted, sunk and injured more than a hundred ships.

Although Ali Hague tried hard to maintain its formation to avoid endangering the landing troops, the dispersed ships rushed them into pieces and failed to form a army. Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Chen Yi directed more than a dozen warships to force a hole to protect Ali Hague's ship and headed west. As soon as the commander's ship moved, the rest of the warships broke through the west, and suddenly there was a mess on the sea.

Liu Zhu ordered Dong Yicheng to lead Chengmai navy to pursue the ship in Ali Hague, and the other two navy troops surrounded and annihilated the remaining enemy ships. When it was dawn, the battle on the sea was basically over. Hundreds of enemy ships lowered the sails and lowered the masts and asked to surrender. He ordered each ship to salvage the enemy soldiers who fell into the water, and at the same time began to support the infantry's operations, launching fierce shelling on the enemy troops gathered on the beach.

The Yuan army on the west bank now became a sandwich and was bombarded by the navy to run towards the beach. However, the Song army guarding the barriers would not hesitate to wait as soon as they had entered the range. And their only way out was to seize the Song army's city and gain a foothold to defend and wait for assistance. Otherwise, they would have to feed fish and turtles if they lost their way out. In order to get out of the predicament, Tuowen Buhua personally led his troops to attack, but when he had just rushed to the sand dike, he was blown to pieces by more than ten grenades thrown down.

Ali Hague "escape" and the general was killed. The Yuan army, which had already had extremely declining morale, was unable to maintain it anymore, and the soldiers began to flee. Qi Rongzu led his personal soldiers to try to stop them, but was killed by the riots. At this time, the Song army went out of the camp to counterattack. The Yuan army, which suffered heavy blows, was no longer as fierce as it was at the time. They were in chaos and could not prevent them from being fled west by the riots...

Baisha Island is still stable now. The Song army gave them the highest courtesy, but they either sank or seized the warships that sent them ashore, and did not fire a shot at the island. Of course, Aoluchi understood his situation and ordered the soldiers to build a simple city with the stranded or destroyed warship boards and the bodies of the dead, ready to defend and fight the enemy. However, the situation on the island was not good. After a day of fighting, the two teams of 10,000 people and 20,000 She soldiers on the island had been killed or injured, so there was no need to mention the morale.

It is dawn now, and the sun is rising. There are not even trees on the island, so you can only dry it. It is okay to dry it, it can also supplement calcium, but the problem is that your stomach is empty and your mouth is dry! Oru looked at the hungry soldiers and three groups, sitting or lying in the muddy ground, looking at the sea blankly, as if hoping that their warships could appear and take them away. The worst thing is that the wounded soldiers were wailing in pain, but no one could help them, so he could only watch them take their last breath.

"What's wrong there?" Oruchi suddenly heard a noise in the south of the island, and he asked hurriedly.

"Deputy Commander, the tide is rising. The She soldiers in the south of the island want to go to the island, but how to put them down just in such a small place, and then they started a dispute!" said a personal soldier.
