After occupying Sizhou City, Zhao Bing ordered Du Ge's troops and the guards' baggage regiment to garrison. He led the guards' guards' guards, the guards' battalion and the Badu troops to stay in Xuyi City. His camp did not choose to be in the Xuyi County Government, but gave it to Badu. He chose a Chenyuan, which was close to the mountains and rivers. This was a villa of a wealthy businessman. After learning about the Song army's advance north, he fled early and fled.

The Chen Garden is very large in area, and the style adopts Su Yang's style. It takes the water of the Huai River into the garden, and is close to the mountains in the city. It also uses Taihu stone as decoration. The overall picture is simple and elegant, which is very suitable for Zhao Bing's taste. Because the owner fled in a hurry, everything in the garden was completely preserved, and even the food in the warehouse and the servants left behind had no time to take away. It can be said that it was "moving in with a bag" and there was no need to buy anything.

Of course, it is more of a security consideration when choosing to stay here. Although Brother Du and Ba Du performed very respectfully, Wang Yinglin and others were still worried, and the surrendered army had to exceed their strength, and it would be difficult to deal with any situation. Although the county government is convenient for directors, it can be located in the city center and facing the street in the west, which is not conducive to defense and retreat.

The Chen Family Manor is surrounded by the mountains and close to the water. There is only one bridge that understands the outside world. The Vehicle Battalion of the Personal Guards arranges the chariots at both ends of the bridge, which can easily block the road leading to the outside, and occasionally use the chariots as activity fortresses and serve as a warning post on the waterside. If you have any questions, you can quickly form a chariot array to form an indestructible outer line of defense. Moreover, the manor is close to the south gate of the city, so it is convenient to retreat outside the city if you can't defend it.

Zhao Bing likes water and still chooses a courtyard close to water as his residence. Since crossing the river, he has been stationed in the wild with his army. He moved into the house and didn't know if he was adapting to the wild or was too tired recently in continuous marches and combat. After entering the city, he actually got sick and had a low fever for days, which made him feel that he had no strength and was lazy and unwilling to move.

"Your Majesty, you should take care of the dragon's body and don't worry!" Wang De held the soup made by himself. As soon as he entered the room, he saw the little emperor sitting on the couch with a quilt again reviewing the official documents, and hurried forward.

"It's just that I feel the cold, so there's no need to make a fuss!" Zhao Bing said with a blank look.

"Your Majesty, don't underestimate it. It's okay if you are so angry!" Wang De was still chattering and handing the medicine bowl to the emperor.

"I see you are old, why do you become so verbose?" Zhao Bing took the medicine bowl and drank it with a sip. He said with a smile.

"Yes, Your Majesty is now grown up, how can I not grow old!" Wang De took the medicine bowl and put it down, took the water to let Your Majesty rinse his mouth, then wiped the traces of water left on His Majesty's mouth with a veil, and then took a candy and put it in his mouth and sighed.

"Since I know that I have grown up, I still have to nag everything!" Zhao Bing felt a little amused. He was so old, but he was still like coaxing a child and gave me a piece of candy. But when he looked at Wang De, he suddenly realized that he was really old, his body began to be a little hunched, and the wrinkles on his face became more and more. Thinking about it, he had been with him for more than ten years. It can be said that he was the person who had been with him the longest in the world, and he couldn't help feeling sad.

"Your Majesty, take medicine and rest for a while!" Wang De said as he put away the official documents placed on the couch and wanted to help His Majesty lie down.

"Oh, okay!" Zhao Bing looked at the busy Wang De. He wanted to refuse but couldn't bear to refuse him, so he handed the memorial to him. Wang De covered him with a quilt, added charcoal to the brazier, and asked the small yellow gate on duty to take good care of it, and then he stepped out gently. Zhao Bing couldn't sleep for a while, and was still thinking about things in his mind.

At present, Xuyi has been obtained, and Chen Fenglin, who marched through the water, has also arrived in Shanyang and launched an attack. Shanyang City is also an important military city. First, it was built by Xun Xian, a general of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Later, after being reinforced by all generations, the city was three or eight feet high, with a total of eleven miles long and three and a half miles in diameter. It is also a solid city, with the saying "Shanyang with iron and Qingjiang with paper". After the Mongolian Yuan moved Wanhu Mansion in Shandong, Hebei, Shandong, to farm, and more than 20,000 people were stationed on the shore of Hongze Lake.

Zhao Bing was not too worried about whether he could recover Shanyang. Most of the army led by Chen Fenglin had nearly 20,000 troops, and they could carry heavy artillery with boats. The disappearance of the city wall was precisely because of the arrival of the era of firearms. In addition, Yuxi Timur invaded the south and took away most of the garrisons in Shanyang, with only one thousand households guarding it, and could not resist the attack of the Song army at all.

Zhao Bing stopped attacking at the moment. As Li Qian said, he was suffering from the lack of troops. He did not dare to move forward rashly. Now they had already advanced hundreds of miles from other Song troops. A huge gap appeared on the left wing, and there was a danger of being surrounded by the enemy without the cover of friendly forces. He also knew that the Yuan Dynasty would not allow them to act arbitrarily and would definitely send troops to stop them.

At present, the troops stationed in the north and south of the Huai River on the Mongolian Yuan side were either annihilated or surrounded, but they were not without the power to fight back. In Zhen Jin's hands, there was an army of more than 200,000 - the personal army of the guards.

The guards' personal army were a special existence in the military system of the Yuan Dynasty. It was the most important armed force controlled and controlled by the Khan himself. It was the central guard organization established by the Mongolian rulers in the Central Plains after entering the Central Plains dynasty, which was different from the traditional Qixue Army in the grasslands. Its status is equivalent to the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty and the imperial guards of the previous dynasty.

The personal guards played an irreplaceable role in quelling the rebellion of the kings in the Kublai Khan era, especially in checking and balancing the Han army and effectively controlling the government. As a branch of the Central Imperial Guard, it also reflects a completely different feature from the Qiexue, and its relationship with Qiexue is actually a microcosm of the duality of the nationality of the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty.

Although Qiexue and the personal guards of the guards are both central imperial guards, they have a clear division of labor in their functions. The components and treatments of the guards of the guards are no different from those of ordinary soldiers. Their main function is to balance local force, rather than having multiple political functions like Qiexue. Qiexue is responsible for the security of the emperor, in charge of the defense of the palace and the slaughter of the ears, and generally does not go out to fight. The personal guards of the guards are responsible for the security of the two capitals, and are also a regular elite force used by the court to "stay in the heavy and control lightly", and can go out to fight at any time.

As the imperial power, Gancheng was also different from the emperor's affiliation between Qiexue. The guards were under the command of the commander and commander of each guard. In addition to the Eastern Palace and the Guards, they were all under the Privy Council. Its functions are roughly as follows: First, as a standing army, defending the two capitals and nearby areas. Second, as the central force that controls the local area, they will rebel and go to fight. Third, during the non-military period, they will farm and feed themselves to reduce the burden on the country. Fourth, they will be responsible for the construction, repair and other labor service of the two capitals.

Therefore, on the one hand, due to its confidentiality, it occupies an important position in the monarchy's autocratic rule. Whether it can effectively control the military power of the imperial guards and how to control it is an important criterion for measuring the strength, weakness, rise and fall of the autocratic monarchy. On the other hand, since the guards' personal army is the main force in the capital region, close to the palace, it becomes the security barrier for the Yuan court. With the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty's Han area in the Central Plains, as the military function of Qinxue gradually deteriorates, Qinxue's personal army becomes the backbone of the Yuan army, and has gradually replaced Qinxue's military position as the "big central army" of the entire army.

Based on various information, Zhao Bing basically found out the situation of the guards' personal army. Kublai Khan formed the twelve guards' personal army during the Zhiyuan period, with the main force mainly Han army. At the same time, he also established Semu people and Mongolian guards, and "the brave men of all countries gathered into the guards of the guards of the guards of each country". Each guard had a commander and other officers in charge of the commander of the commander of the commander of the army.

The five guards of the Han army were composed of front, back, middle, left and right. In addition to the Han army in various places, the elite troops of the Song surrendered army were also screened for incoming, with 10,000 people in each guard. The camps were all south of Dadu, the camps of the Forward Guard were in Fanyang, the camps of the Forward Guard were in Baiyankou, the camps of the Central Guard were in Qianzhou, the camps of the Right Guard were in Yongqing County, the camps of the Left Guards were in Dong'anzhou, and the east of Yongqing County. In addition, Haikou guards were established, which were affiliated with the Qing 10,000 households of grain transport, and the camps of Zhigu Haikou were in Haikou, with a total of 6,000 troops and a hundred thousand acres of land were stationed.

Semuwei divided the left and right, and the Qinchawei's personal command department, led by the Tudihaha, set up 19 thousand marches, 19 military households, three military farms, and commanded between 15,000 to 20,000 people. Among them, the Qinchawei was known for its good combat, especially in destroying Song and pacifying the Haidu. Naiyan's rebellion made outstanding achievements and established camps in Qingzhou; Halaluwanhu Prefecture was composed of some soldiers who surrendered to Genghis Khan during the Mongols's Western Expedition, as well as the three thousand Hala soldiers who led the "Hansijian Kingdom" when the Xiadaermili surrendered.

In the Yuan Dynasty, Guichiwei and Xibao Chiwei were the "catchers of Yingfang people". Most of them were selected for the secular residence, and the resignation of good people and the missed Blanxi, the monks and Taoists returned to the secular residence and all the scoundrels who were scoundrels. After entering the Yuan Dynasty, there were many Mongolians, and Semu people were appointed. Ming'an from Kang'an led the commander, and led 80 households, and the commander of 5,000 troops, and established the army in Tanzhou. Longzhenwei was composed of various semiconductor soldiers, and was divided into Qincha, Tangwu, Western Regions, and the left and right Asu, and more than 600 old Han troops were established. They built the camp at Yongguan and stationed forty-three places in the east and west, with a total of 4,000 people.

After the Yuan Dynasty unified the Mongolian army was not many who were stationed in the northern part of the Mobei region and were led by the kings. Among them, not many were organized into the guards' personal army. Only four Mongolian guards were established one after another, three of which were under the Privy Council, and were commanded by the left and right-right Mongolian guards. The left and right-right Mongolian guards set up 62 vows to command 4,000 troops to build a camp in Cangzhou; the right-right Mongolian guards set up 109 units, and the command 7,000 troops to build a camp in Wuqing.
