Gao Huaiyuan has been asking himself this question, it was he who made this decision, with so many soldiers to stay in Xuzhou, facing several times their brutal enemies, now can he leave these soldiers who are loyal to him here, and escape and ascend to heaven by himself?

The answer is no, he can't! Because he knew that once he broke through and escaped, then Xuzhou's military morale would be in chaos, and the already stretched troops, after he led a part of the elite to break through, it would be even more difficult here, and it could completely collapse at any time, so what would be the fate of the soldiers left here, he knew better than anyone else. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Gao Huaiyuan finally completely dispelled the idea of breaking through and going back to Lin'an to personally quell Zhao Yun's troubles, and resolutely decided that no matter how the situation would develop, he would never leave Xuzhou, and he decided to completely trust Jia Qi and the generals of several other armies, and would complete their set goals according to his requirements...

"Ladies and gentlemen! Planning is in people, and success is in heaven, what I should do has been done! Now it's up to God to help us Han people! How can I turn my back on you at this time? I asked myself, I can't do it!

If the heavens want to kill me, even if I break out, what can I do? Even if I survive, how can I have peace of mind? It's a tough time for us, but I don't think he's going to be okay either, I've been here for so long! How could they retreat like this? Now it depends on which of us is the first to hold on, and the one who insists to the end is the winner, not to mention that we have 10,000 brave soldiers here, and Xuzhou City is far from the time when the mountains and rivers are exhausted!

I ask you to believe that we will never lose, and as long as we persevere, victory will be ours! Today I swear that if I turn my back on you one day, it will be like this table! Gao Huaiyuan looked at these generals, couldn't help but feel a little moist in his eyes, and said loudly to them, and when he finished speaking, he suddenly pulled out the dragon scale knife on his waist, and split a table next to him into two pieces with a single knife, and the broken table fell to the ground with a clatter. After listening to Gao Huaiyuan's words, the generals also felt that their eyes were moist, and the blood on their bodies couldn't help but seem to be boiling, and they didn't know who was the first to call out: "The last general was originally a handsome man to die!" ”

"The last general was originally a handsome man! ......" There was a roar in the lobby.

Another three days passed, and the grain stock in Xuzhou City was completely cut off, and an officer stood silently in front of his beloved horse, gently reaching out to caress the neck of the war horse, while the other hand was holding a bull's ear sharp knife, and his hand was trembling slightly, and he couldn't get off his hand for a long time. . .

"General! You can't kill it! These horses are our **! You can't kill it! Several horsemen hugged the necks of their horses and cried to their officers with tears in their eyes.

The officer, with tears in his eyes, inspected the men under his command, gritted his teeth, and said, "The grain and straw in the city have been cut off, so what's the use of keeping them?" Aren't they starving to death? I know what you think, and I am also reluctant to let these war horses go, but the marshal has already said that he wants to live and die with us and Xuzhou, so what else are we reluctant to do?

As long as the Tartars are defeated in this battle, then we will have more horses, and we will have as many as we want, but for now we must get these 'brothers' on the road first, brothers! If you can't do it, let someone else do it! ”

Some of the brethren of the infantry who had been sent to kill the horses could not bear to turn their heads and not want to see the cavalry brothers cry, but the horses seemed to realize something, and kept snorting and rubbing their heads against their masters, as if to comfort their masters. "Isn't it time for us to break the siege a few days ago? Why haven't you seen a single reinforcement until now? A cavalryman finally couldn't help but ask the officer...

"Bold! Darn! How can you ask that question now? It's a war! Anything can happen, and it is inevitable that reinforcements will be blocked later! Look at our handsome! Isn't it better to stick here with us? Reinforcements will definitely come! Dashuai believes it, I believe it, and you should believe it even more! If anyone else dares to question the handsome! I, Liu Benfu, slaughtered whom! We will not lose, as long as the commander is here, we will not lose! Xuzhou City will not be lost! If we're afraid, we're a bad seed! We want to let the Tartars see and understand, we Han people are not easy to bully! Don't be bad, even if you wait another year, Tartar will not want to step into Xuzhou! Kill the horse! When the officer heard such a thing say, he was furious, and jumped to his feet and shouted at his men.

As soon as his words fell, the ox ear sharp knife in his right hand stabbed heavily into the neck of his beloved horse, and a stream of blood arrows spurted out of the wound of the war horse, and the war horse neighed sadly, struggling and jumping, but the officer named Liu Benfu grabbed the reins of the horse, and a soldier came silently, catching the spray of horse blood with a basin, and soon Liu Benfu's war horse staggered to the ground, and after a few convulsions, he looked at its owner with his eyes open and suspicious, and gradually quieted down. Liu Benfu knelt on the ground, gently stroked the dead war horse, tears couldn't stop flowing, and whispered: "Brother go, it's me who can't stand you, you will be a man in the next life, I will be a horse, let you ride!" I'm sorry! ……”

Some of the infantry soldiers who had been sent to kill their horses said to the cavalrymen: "Brother! Let's go! Let's do it! Don't look uncomfortable! ”

A cavalryman pushed away the infantry who walked beside him, and said angrily: "Get out of the way!" My horse, even if it is killed, can only be killed by me, go away! ……”

The mules and horses of Xuzhou City began to be slaughtered in batches, and then cooked for the soldiers and civilians in the city to eat, such a scene was staged in the city every day, groups of cavalry tearfully killed their horses, and then with full of anger picked up the weapon, and the infantry stood behind the battlements, eyes breathing fire at the Mongolian army outside the city...

The Mongol army is still forcing those new annexed armies and Han troops to attack Xuzhou City again and again, and one after another artillery trucks are densely erected outside the city by them like a forest, smashing the artillery stones into the small Xuzhou City like rain, such an attack is almost uninterrupted every day...

And the Song army in the city was not merciless, their artillery was all moved to the city, the gunners carefully aimed, constantly counterattacking the Mongolian army outside the city, and smashed the Mongolian artillery trucks.

And they also took out the treasure at the bottom of the box, some chain bullets that had just been equipped with their artillery, these chain bullets were made of two semicircular iron lumps, and in the middle was an iron chain more than two feet long, which was originally intended to be equipped with naval ship artillery, used to destroy the mast and sail of the enemy ship, but after the test, it was found that the lethality of this thing to people was not at all smaller than that of solid bullets or grape bullets, although the range was not as good as solid bullets, but it was more than scattered bullets and grapeshot bullets, and the special advantage was that it could be used to deal with the enemy's throwing carts and other things, The effect is quite good, Gao Huaiyuan then let the infantry army equip some such guys...

But because this thing is difficult to manufacture, the process is complex, and the cost is also very high, so the number of equipment in the artillery is very small, and there is basically no willingness to take it out and use it in the previous battle, and now Xuzhou City has reached the time of danger, and the stock of gunpowder is not much.

In this way, it solves the problem of artillery suppressing the Mongolian army throwing the car, often a cannon out, you can hit a Mongolian army outside the city to throw a car on the spot, by the way, it can also harvest a lot of enemy lives, hit people are often torn apart, like tearing a rag doll, corpse fragments fly everywhere, the power is very good...

Under such a chain bomb attack, the Mongolian army outside the city lost a lot of money, and the Mongolian artillery operators were so frightened that they didn't dare to stand in front of the car, for fear that the first one would be torn by this thing.

Wokotai stared at the Xuzhou city in front of him all day long, gritting his teeth, he didn't want to believe it anyway, he led a Mongolian army of nearly 100,000, stunned outside this small Xuzhou city, was held up for two months, but still couldn't conquer this small city.

He also tried his best outside the city, building throwing cars, building ladders, arrow towers, and high barriers...... As long as he could think of a way to attack the city, he thought of it, but he still couldn't conquer Xuzhou City, and the corpses of the soldiers who were carried down every day were almost buried outside the city, so they had to be transported farther away to find a place to bury them, so that the air in the entire Xuzhou area was filled with a strong smell of corpses, which made him very worried, for fear that he didn't know when, there would be a plague here, in that case, don't fight this battle, they can directly roll up the cover and get out of the Mongolian grassland.

"Could it be that the Song army in the city is all iron? Can't they be killed? Wokotai sat sweating profusely under the umbrella, constantly flashing this question in his mind.

In the past two days, he captured two Song soldiers who fled from the city, these two Song soldiers could not be regarded as Song soldiers, but two Jin soldiers who had just surrendered to the Song army, and were incorporated into the army by the Song army to strengthen the garrison, because they really couldn't stand this pressure, and watched their colleagues around them die in battle, so they went down to the city with ropes when they were on duty at night, and wanted to escape, but they were immediately arrested by the Mongolian army patrolling the city.

After interrogating the two deserters, Wokotai learned that the Song army in the city was now running out of ammunition and food, and his heart was somewhat relaxed, and he announced in his army that the Song army was about to be unable to hold on, and ordered to intensify the siege of the city, and he would reward the first person to attack the city, the position of captain, and also a thousand gold.

After hearing the news that the Song army had run out of ammunition and food, the Mongol army also regained their morale and began to sacrifice their lives to attack the city.
