Read x;?and the Song people in the Guannai are different, the five states outside the Guanwai can be said to be shrouded in the clouds of the Jin War all the year round, these places live in the people of all ethnic groups, these more than a hundred years, often live in fear, no matter who it is, are always worried about the invasion of the Jin State, the people living in the city are good to say, but those people living in the township, it is difficult to get the protection of the government and the army, so from the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the towns and villages in this area have formed the habit of fort self-protection, as long as it is a larger village, They all chose to build Lei, form a walled fort, find bandits, close the gate, and resist to the end! At present, the Mongol army invaded, in order to survive and protect the family, they still united, closed the door and resisted to the end, who would fight whom, but although the Mongol army was very strong, it had to attack one by one in order to gnaw these walled forts, which greatly added a lot of trouble to the Mongols.

So all the way the Mongolian army in the city of Xihezhou, a head bump into a dizzy, a few days in a row, stunned did not capture Xihezhou, but the loss is not small, in order to solve Jianli County, the Song army that offended them, had to transfer back a part of the soldiers and horses from Xihezhou, to participate in the siege of Jianli County, and from the direction of the Chengzhou and Tianshui Army to draw a part of the soldiers and horses, starry night gallop to Jianli County, also joined the siege of Jianli County.
Song Jun, who was lying on the head of the city, looked at the increasing number of Mongolian troops outside the city, and couldn't help but start smacking his tongue, even Huang Yan, who had always had a cynical face, his face became much more serious.
! We seem to have stabbed a hornet's nest, and we have attracted so many Mongolian Tatars! Looks like we're busy! Huang Yan was lying on top of the city tower with a monocular, and what he saw in the eyepiece was the camp tent of the endless Mongolian army, and he muttered curses in his mouth.
Looking at the Mongolian army arriving in batches outside the city, the soldiers and civilians who had just been rescued in Jianli County couldn't help but raise their hearts to their throats again, and began to worry about their fate.
Huang Yan walked down the city wall, summoned his subordinate generals and the squires and land guards of Jianli County in the city, and held a meeting among the county officials in the city.
It seems that the Tartars are determined to attack us this time! Don't hide it from you, with the ferocity of the Tartars, I am afraid that as long as the city is broken, everyone in the city will be slaughtered, and it is said that the Tartars have slaughtered the soldiers and civilians of Jiezhou City, which is by no means alarmist! Huang Yan was draped all over his body, sat in the hall with a golden knife, and said to everyone present, but his expression was not nervous.
His words immediately caused a commotion among the local folks, and everyone had a frightened and panicked expression on their faces, and they exchanged words with each other, even the officers were slightly moved on their faces.
Huang Yan picked up a cup of tea and took a sip, first letting these people quarrel for a while, and then coughed vigorously twice, indicating that he had something to say.
After the local folks heard Huang Yan's cough, they began to quiet down.
What I'm saying is the truth, the Mongol Tartars like to slaughter cities to subdue their opponents, not only against our Great Song Dynasty, but also against all enemies who refuse to obey their orders, this is a trick they have always used!
But you don't have to be afraid, because you have already died once, and even if there is such a day, the extra days will be earned! So there's nothing to be afraid of! Of course, it does not include those of you who are soldiers, because since you have followed Lao Tzu as a soldier, this head is equivalent to living on the belt of your trousers, and you may lose your head at any time! Hehe! Huang Yan continued to speak to these people in his nonchalant tone, and by the way, he also teased the officers under him.
Although these words were terrifying, but coming out of Huang Yan's mouth made the atmosphere seem a little relaxed, those local people with heads and faces were nothing, but as soon as these words came out, those officers laughed one after another.
People think about it carefully, too! After all, when they saw that the city was about to be broken, it was Huang Yan who came to save them, if Huang Yan came half a day late, then now they may not have been slaughtered by the Mongolian army, although Huang Yan's words are rough, but they are not wrong about anything, their lives have actually been picked up, and it is not false to earn a few more days.
So someone nodded and agreed with Huang Yan's statement, and Huang Yan has been secretly observing the expressions of these people, and seeing that they also agree with his own statement, he continued: Since this is the case, then we are still afraid of their fart! At the beginning, you only had a few hundred soldiers in the city, so you dared to fight to the death with the Mongolian Tatars, and now I, Huang, led 5,000 athletes, and when I arrived here, could it be that you are more afraid?
I Huang don't dare to blow anything else, for my generals under my command, I am still a little confident, I used to be stationed in Zaoyang, western Beijing, loyal to the army, these years with the golden dog, never afraid of the golden dog, last year with us all the Northern Expedition to Jingdong, has already been with these Mongolian Tartars have been a few hard fights! Therefore, this official is very confident in these soldiers under his command!
I will give you a guarantee today, that is, as long as I and these soldiers under my command are still alive, I will never allow the Tartars to enter Jiangli County for half a step! So if I die, I, Huang, will die earlier than you, please rest assured!
The Tartars are unkind, they invade our borders, and slaughter our soldiers and civilians, our Great Song Dynasty has had enough of it over the years, it's time for us to turn around, and let the Mongolian Tartars also see that our Song people are not easy to bully.
Today, I will explain one more thing, that is, if the official is not good and dies in battle first, the general will replace me in command, and the general will die in battle, and the deputy general will take over, and the deputy general will be ready to take over, and so on even if the last person fights, as long as there is still someone who has a fucking breath, we can't let the Mongolian Tartars plague the people in the city! If someone is greedy for life and afraid of death and afraid of war, then it is still our old rules, and the war knife is waiting!
As for the people of Jianli County, there is no need for me to ask you to advance and retreat with us, and live and die together, but I also hope that you will make a strong contribution and help us soldiers to defend the city!
You don't have to worry too much, I guarantee that at present, Lord Du Chengzhi has begun to deploy troops to meet the Mongolian army, as long as we hold on, then sooner or later we will wait for the reinforcements of our lords, and when the reinforcements arrive, that is, when these Tartars retreat, what we need is to be able to hold on to Jianli County for a period of time, and buy some time for Lord Du Chengzhi to complete the transfer of troops, I hope you can work together with us to hold this Jianli county! Huang Yan still said something in his cynical tone at first, but when he said the latter, his face became serious, and he got up from his chair and walked to the center of the hall.
Everyone's eyes were focused on him, and when he finished speaking, the officers stood up together and said with a bang: I am willing to obey the orders of the commander!
And those local people couldn't help but get excited, they were completely moved by Huang Yan's words, in their eyes, Huang Yan's generals are not locals, they can choose to break out, leave them alone, but even they have chosen to live and die together in Jianli County, so as local people, what else do they have to say?
At this time of life and death, I am afraid that it is useless, and their only hope is to help Huang Yan and his officers and soldiers, block the attack of the Mongols, wait for the arrival of reinforcements, and drive away those Mongol troops outside the city.
Therefore, these local people also got up one after another, bowed to Huang Yan to the ground, and thanked them one after another, saying that they would definitely advance and retreat together with the military and never surrender to the Mongol Tatars.
So Jianli County immediately became a soldier for everyone, as long as there was still a little strength of the people, they began to find things to arm themselves, under the leadership of the local figures, out of the house, consciously began to help the army guard the city, carry all kinds of materials, for the city head to guard the use.
Moreover, those big families in the city did not have any private collections, and donated all the food stored at home and handed them over to the military for unified control, and even ordinary people took out the only food stored at home, even lamp oil, vegetable oil and other things, and handed them over to the military for unified distribution.
Everyone in Jianli County has also been completely mobilized at this point, and the old and young masters have gone into battle together, ready to fight the Mongolian Tartars to the death.
Even some of the women went out of their homes to help care for the wounded, fetch water and cook, and provide the military with the help they could.
This made Huang Yan feel a lot more relieved, and immediately divided the army and the people into three groups, took turns to defend the city, and even designated a special person to be responsible for each section of the city wall and every battlement, and he was determined to smash the Mongolian army outside the city here.
The Mongolian army under the command of Tuo Lei, a large number of siege equipment were built, placed in the open space outside the city, and the soldiers and civilians in the city were also busy, a large number of houses were directly demolished, the houses were demolished, and the brick and stone beams and other things were stacked under the city wall, which could be transported to the city wall to fight the enemy at any time.
For two whole days, neither side moved, and on the morning of the third day when Tuo Lei led his army to Jianli County, a great battle was finally ignited at the sound of the Mongol army's horn.
A large number of new annexes of the Mongolian army and the Han army, under the supervision of the Mongols, roared and raised their shields and swarmed towards the city wall.
The rumbling sound on the city wall is endless, and every stone falling on the city wall will make the city wall tremble slightly, and from time to time someone will be hit by a stone, making a terrible scream, while a large number of soldiers and civilians hide under the female wall, waiting for the officer to give the order to counterattack.
Damn, there are really a lot of cars thrown by this Tartar, do you want to bury Lao Tzu alive? Huang Yan had just dodged a boulder, and the two villagers around him couldn't dodge, they were hit by a boulder, and they were smashed into meat on the spot, and the blood splashed Huang Yan's face again, and the dust that rose made Huang Yan a little discouraged, so he scolded.
