After winning several games in succession, and without the enemy's treachery, all the soldiers in Song Dynasty were in high spirits. Even if they had been eating the least food, they could not stand in their way.

And after gaining trust, I stopped Zhang Shijie's decision to retreat to the sea as soon as possible! Although he had some doubts, I finally convinced him. He was only planning a retreat at the same time. It seems that he had no confidence in this battle.

Like him, I'm not as optimistic about this battle as the soldiers are. The strength of both sides is obvious. Although we have barely resisted these battles, the consumption is not small. There are all the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled around. At most, there are less than 70000 intact soldiers left. On the contrary, the other side is still full of troops, and there is a steady stream of Mongolian army coming.

In addition, although this place is easy to defend and hard to attack, Zhang Hongfan, the traitor of the Han nationality, is also a general. Next, we will face a more fierce attack. It's natural for us to suffer from such losses.

So I asked the cook to increase the amount of food tonight. Zhang Shijie saw something he didn't agree with and said, "there's not much food left now. I'm afraid Mr. Zhang did this..."

"General, what do you think Zhang Hongfan will do if you can't attack for a long time?"

I sighed, and Zhang Shijie's face also changed. Then I waved to the cook to get ready immediately.

When the cook prepared the meal in the evening, all the soldiers cheered, but at the same time felt that things were not right. I stood in front of them and shouted with the largest voice: "next is the most critical moment of the Song Dynasty. As long as we make it through, we will be able to hold the mountains and rivers. Tonight, everyone will eat and drink well, leaving the defensive military strength, and the rest will give me a good rest "!"

They responded loudly, I wiped my face and took a bowl of water to drink, looking at the soldiers in front of me with emotion.

In modern times, I have been wandering in the city and countryside, and a few friends I know are all dealing with ghosts. It can be said that I haven't met a few normal people, let alone this kind of military camp life.

No wonder the book says that once you become a soldier, you will feel how small you used to be.

I shook my head, but my heart seemed to be dripping blood, because I knew that the face in front of me no longer existed in history, and I could not save them.

If I want to lead you to win the war and resolve their grievances when I first enter the Yin space, but from these battles, it is even more difficult to win.

I don't have any expectation. I just want to leave them a good thought at the last moment!

After listening to my words, the soldiers all buried themselves in eating, and finally arranged for the rest to go to sleep in the room. I walk in the empty half of the street, from time to time, I can hear the loud snoring from the room. I can't help admiring them. Even if the enemy is on the opposite side, even if the enemy will attack at any time, they can still sleep heartless.

Or is it just too normal for them to go to war?

I shook my head and stopped thinking. As soon as I wanted to go back to sleep, I saw a figure in front of me. It was Prime Minister Lu Xiufu. I hurried away and saw him staring at the palace in front of me.

"See the prime minister." I shouted, he looked back at me and asked me with a wry smile if I still didn't win.

I didn't deceive them. I think they have a clear idea. As the most outstanding person in the Southern Song Dynasty, I don't need to say anything about these things at all.

So I nodded, he clearly stroked his long beard, and then looked at the palace: "tonight, the holy one asked me if it was because he wanted to win that he asked the cook to add food."

"What do you say?" I also looked at the palace. I couldn't imagine how the little emperor, who was just seven years old, could bear so many days? Although he is the emperor, better than many soldiers, but every day in the face of a large number of bodies, a steady stream of enemy, I'm afraid the spirit has already collapsed.

You should know that in modern society, his age is just a primary school, every day in addition to reading is playing, there will be no trouble.

Lu Xiufu smiled and shook his head: "what can I say? Naturally, it tells the holy one that we will win."

"Does he believe it?" In modern times, I think I can cheat a seven year old child, but I don't know if I can cheat that little emperor.

As expected, Lu Xiufu shook his head again: "the holy nature does not believe, he only told me a word: in case of defeat, do not give him to the enemy."

I was dumb. It seems that Lu Xiufu's idea of jumping into the sea with the little emperor on his back was not his own. I think the little emperor also understood that if he fell into the hands of the enemy, he would only destroy the last integrity of the Han people.

I kneel on one knee and bow my hand, but my eyes are red: "prime minister, I will do my best."

"Well, naturally, we will do our best to help." Lu Xiufu smiled, as if his previous worries were gone, but when he looked at the palace, his pessimism was still so obvious.

I stayed with him for a while and then went back to the house. The situation in the next room was very serious. I had to play a 12 point spirit. After all, I'm not good at fighting. I've been scared by the corpse these days. I guess I'll have a good rest after I go back this time.In the middle of the night, Zhang Hongfan, the traitor of the Han nationality, really began to attack. I immediately got up from the bed, and the drums had already sounded in the army. The soldiers in the sleep quickly gathered to fight!

The yuan army was just a dead fight. Zhang Shijie and I tried our best to block all the places with the least amount of troops. One group of fallen soldiers will immediately follow.

Archers are also constantly putting arrows. When an archer dies, people have no time to grieve, and they will step on his companion's body to fill the vacancy. The bow and arrow rain temporarily blocked the yuan army's steps, and then I asked them to pour the seawater down the city building, which was mixed with oil, and the yuan army rushed in front immediately fell to the ground.

Originally, I wanted to use oil all the time, but I didn't have enough food and grass, and I didn't have much oil, so I had to save it. Although the effect is greatly reduced, it gives us buffer time in the end.

I turned to Zhang Shijie on the other side and said, "they attacked too fiercely. We don't have to be able to support them here. I need a little time."

"Good." Zhang Shijie didn't say a word. He immediately took my place and began to command the soldiers.

And I retreated from the tower and stood on the empty street hesitating.

Then I looked at the people who had fallen down from time to time on the city tower and breathed in silence: "even if I become a waste man, I'll fight!"

I took out the dagger and cut a hole in my finger, spilled blood on the ebony core, and then silently recited a few incantations. Yes, I want to open one of the ten forbidden arrays in the Yin Fu Jing, and summon all the dead people from thousands of miles around, just to win this war.

In the past, there would not be many undead in the spirit gathering array, but this is the battlefield, and there is nothing missing, only the dead.

I breathed. At the end of the spell, I pressed my hand on the ebony core, and the red light flashed in an instant
