"The Mongolian enemy's plan is to completely disrupt the deployment of our army, and at the moment there are still 200,000 soldiers hidden in the Mongolian camp, and their target is still Wancheng!"

"But the two cavalry sneak attack on the imperial city, and they have to be guarded!"

Zhou Yu turned around and looked directly at the gazetteer hanging in the hall, and said: "General Meng, the enemy soldiers will pass through Guanquan Mountain to the imperial capital, and they will definitely pass through Xuzhou City, and the general can lead his troops to fortify here and block the enemy's advance." ”

"The defense of Wancheng will be handed over to Gong Jin, General Meng and the King of Northern Han will immediately lead the troops to leave, and in a few more days, I believe that His Majesty's army will come soon!"

Zhou Yu's expression was firm, and a loud voice sounded, Meng Ye and Shan Li did not hesitate, rushed out of the general's mansion, and went to the city to gather the army.

Afternoon.

Meng Ye, Shan Li led the troops to leave for Xuzhou City, only Zhou Yu was left in Wancheng, he ordered the fifth wide, Shentu Shengzhen to guard the city, to prevent the Mongolian enemy soldiers outside the city from sneak attack.

In the next five days, the Mongol Empire army did not attack Wancheng, Zhou Yu asked Shen Tusheng to go out of the city to investigate the Mongol enemy camp, and found that the enemy camp was well defended and did not move, but Zhou Yu felt an ominous premonition and decided to personally lead the army to attack the Mongol camp.

Zhou Yu led the army to leave Wancheng and waved the army to the Mongolian enemy camp, the rumbling horses' hooves sounded in the sky, and the Qiu Chuji sitting in the enemy camp received the news and ordered the three armies to withdraw from the camp and retreat in the direction of the Northern Han Wangcheng, leaving only the empty camp to the Chu army.

The Mongol enemy troops withdrew, and the Chu army captured the empty camp, and Zhou Yu realized that he was being played by the enemy soldiers and completely fell into their trap.

He knew that the direction of Xuzhou City would withstand the impact of the Mongol enemy's strong army, and the imperial capital would probably fall into danger.

Now he is completely in a dilemma, withdraw his troops and return to the imperial capital, Wancheng is not guaranteed, and hundreds of thousands of people will die tragically under the butcher's knife of the enemy soldiers.

If you continue to guard Wancheng, the imperial city will be lost, and you will become a sinner in the empire, and you will have no shame to see Emperor Chu again.

"Withdraw, return to Wancheng!"

Under an order, the army retreated, rushed away, and Qiu Chuji learned of Zhou Yu's withdrawal in the distance, and ordered the three armies to return to the camp again and continue to set up camp.

........

Five days.

Temujin led 100,000 elite cavalry to capture the three cities of Chu one after another, and the defenders who defended the cities were almost completely wiped out, and all the people in the city who did not flee were slaughtered and all their property was plundered.

The Mongol enemy soldiers were completely immersed in the frenzy of killing and looting, gold and silver treasures, beautiful women, horses, which could be said to be lacking in the Mongol Empire, and they did not spare any of them.

However, Temujin issued a ban on robbery, and ordered the soldiers of the three armies to rush to the Tiger Roaring Imperial City, and Temujin knew that only by breaking through the imperial capital could the Chu regime be completely defeated.

Temujin had long known that the Tiger Roaring Imperial City was the richest place in the Chu State, and it was rumored that the imperial capital was nine cities and vast land, and the palace pavilions were rare in the world.

So he ordered the soldiers of the three armies to target the Tiger Roaring Imperial City, because that was the paradise in their hearts.

"Your Majesty, there is Xuzhou City in front, and after breaking this city, there are only two cities left from the imperial capital."

"Haha~"

"Victory is in sight, and the officers and men of the three armies are ordered to set off immediately, aiming at Xuzhou City!"

Temujin stared at each other, laughed loudly, and ordered the three armies to set off for Xuzhou City.

Seeing the Mongolian warriors flying away on their horses in front of them, Temujin took the four mastiffs and four heroes to hiss and rode the horses, and quickly approached Xuzhou City.

At this time.

Under the city of Xuzhou, a large number of people fled for their lives, and Meng Ye and Shan Li were in a dilemma, worried that the people had Mongolian enemy soldiers in disguise.

"General, there are more and more people outside the city, if they are not allowed to enter the city, once the Mongolian iron cavalry comes to the city, they will all be killed."

The original guard of Xuzhou City opened his mouth and said, Meng Ye, Shan Li ordered to open the city gate and let all the people enter, even if the people were mixed with Mongolian enemy soldiers, they would not be able to see death without saving them, and they would not care about the lives of 50,000 people.

The city gate opened, the people entered in a hurry, and for a time the city of Xuzhou was overcrowded, the people were congested, and the road was even more impassable.

Meng Ye, Shan Li looked worried, there were so many people gathered in the city, and the weight of grain and grass could not be borne at all.

"Someone came to send an order, open the two gates in the southeast, let the people leave Xuzhou City first, the Mongolian army is coming, it is very dangerous to stay in the city, let them leave first, avoid the destruction of war."

Meng Ye ordered his soldiers to let the people leave from the two city gates in the southeast, and they could take refuge in other cities, and now Xuzhou City has become the key target of the Mongolian enemy soldiers, Meng Ye does not want the people to stay and take risks with the three armies, and no one must be completely sure that Xuzhou City will not be lost.

Night.

The people in the city left one after another, Meng Ye stood on the city, blaming himself in his heart, as the commander of the three armies, he kept one side safe and protected the people, but now he wants to send the people away, which is really a dereliction of duty.

This night is the most peaceful night in Xuzhou City, the night breeze blows slowly, the city is silent, the soldiers of the three armies are like facing the enemy, and tonight is also a sleepless night, I don't know when the Mongolian enemy soldiers will come to the city.

Unconsciously, the morning dew is dawning, the cold hits people, the fog rises, and the east gradually reveals the white belly of the fish. Meng Ye actually stood on the city and watched all night.

He was melancholy in his heart, and he didn't feel tired at all, and suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the city, squinted his eyes slightly, and looked at the Mongolian cavalry that came from the dust, and his figure rose with a strong fighting spirit.

"Someone, the Mongolian enemy soldiers are coming, send the order down, the whole city is on alert, ready to fight!"

Meng Ye's voice was like a bell, his figure was like a sword, and the Chu army in the city moved when he heard the sound, and suddenly rose up and looked into the distance.

After a night of long-distance running, the Mongolian enemy soldiers were still high in morale, and their blood was boiling, like bloodthirsty wolves, waiting to be fed, ferocious and terrifying.

Shan Li rushed to the city after receiving the news, and looking at the thousands of feet of smoke and dust outside the city, he knew that the Mongolian iron cavalry was coming.

"King of Northern Han, Xuzhou City is the last barrier to enter the imperial city, and I vow to protect Xuzhou to the death, and I must not let the imperial capital fall into a crisis."

"The Mengjia army listens to the order, the city is here, the city is broken, even if there is one soldier left, the Mongolian enemy soldiers must be blocked."

"Swear to defend Xuzhou to the death and live and die with the city!"

The Mongols shouted, their eyes fixed on the Mongol enemy soldiers attacking from below, their bows and arrows, catapults and bed crossbows all ready.

Temujin ordered the four mastiffs to lead the troops to break the city, the cavalry ran wildly, and the arrows crushed them, and the four mastiffs led the infantry to rush the chariots and ladders, and quickly approached the city.

The Mongolian enemy soldiers all know that if they break through the city of Xuzhou in front of them, they can drive straight into the imperial capital of Chu State, and then the world of Chu State will be in their hands, and the glory and wealth, gold and silver beauties, will be inexhaustible.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"
