Melodious but with a stirring horn sound opened the curtain of the day in Xiangyang City, from the head of Xiangyang City, you can see that in the Mongolian camp, a group of soldiers like a neat queue of ants rushed out of the camp, spontaneously assembled in all directions.

Li Xuan stood at the head of the city, holding a pergola in his hand, his eyesight was excellent, even if he was far away, he could roughly see the layout of the other party, Kublai Khan obviously did not realize that the grain road was cut off for the time being, perhaps he had already found out that he had sent people to clear the grain road, but judging from the other party's formation, this was only a tentative attack, and a decisive battle was not launched, and Tang Jun's actions on his side obviously did not attract enough attention from this eloquent Mongolian emperor.

Silently calculating the time in his heart, although the periphery is protected by an army of 20,000 led by Luo Feng, but after all, it is a huge project, and it is impossible to completely hide the scouts of the Mongols, so we must step up here and firmly focus Kublai Khan's eyes on the Xiangyang line.

"Lord Wang, Li Deba, the guard general of the North City, Wang Yuankai, the official of the city gate, held the flag and ordered Wu Kefang to take leave for illness, in addition to Zheng Hu, the guard of the South Gate, Guo Feng, the guard of the West Gate, and more than a dozen two gate generals also took leave collectively." A personal guard hurriedly came to Li Xuan's side, and his face was not very good-looking.

"It's ...... Are you demonstrating to me? A smile appeared on Li Xuan's face, but this smile was a little cold in the eyes of others.

"Lord, although the Mongols take the east gate as the main target, but the other three sides can not be lost, and they also have some friendship with several generals in the present, and there is no room for loss, I will go and invite them back!" Guo Jing raised his eyebrows and asked Li Xuan for his life.

"It doesn't have to be anything." Li Xuan turned around and looked at Guo Jing seriously: "Is it worth it?" ”

"When the national disaster is at hand, how can the public be abolished because of private interests? Wait a minute, go down and go back! Guo Jing said in a deep voice. For Li Xuan's question, he didn't answer, he was a simple person, related to national affairs, he didn't think that it should be like this at this time.

Nodding. didn't stop it again, because for people like Guo Jing, once they recognized the thing, they could go all the way to the end of their lives, and any dissuasion would be superfluous, so he turned his head and looked at the guards and said: "Pass my order, all the captains and deputy captains of the guards camp will go to each gate immediately, Chen Kang, Wang Jun, Li Ye, you three temporarily take over the responsibilities of the guards of each gate." Other vacancies, if there are not enough, be picked out from the personal guard battalion, for the time being, before the end of today's war, be sure to gather the general's heart for me! ”

From the very beginning, the Guards Battalion was a place where Li Xuan trained grassroots generals, and he learned more than just the art of battlefield fighting. How to boost morale and guide the morale of the army is also a compulsory course, after all, it was selected from the tens of thousands of forbidden troops in Lin'an City. One year of training, naturally not as good as the famous generals of this era, but it will not be worse than ordinary generals, and the bravery may be stronger.

"No!" The three people named by Li Xuan suddenly received the order, and then each named a few candidates and took the order. They galloped towards the three gates.

"Lord Wang, changing generals in battle has been a taboo for soldiers since ancient times, and if you do this, I'm afraid it will ......" After a few people left. Huang Rong frowned and came to Li Xuan's side and said with some concern.

Li Xuan shook his head and said slowly: "There is no other way now, a group of rat-eyed things, entrusting my back to these people, I am even more worried!" ”

Looking at Zhu Ziliu, who was also coming with a worried face, the corners of Li Xuan's mouth curled, and a smile appeared on his face: "If the two of you are still not at ease, you can go to the other three gates to take a look, this king's personal guard is not a reckless man who can only shout and kill and help me block the knife." ”

"In this way, Senior Brother Lao Zhu will bring some beggars to help the disciples go to the south gate." Huang Rong nodded, but did not push back, Xiangyang is Guo Jing's hard work, even if Li Xuan has shown enough ability and skill before, but it is related to the survival of Xiangyang, with her character, she can't really rest assured.

"Good!" Zhu Ziliu agreed, and after confessing to Li Xuan, he took a group of beggars to help his disciples and rushed in the direction of Nancheng.

"Hehe, without us, let's see how Li Xuan'er commands this city full of soldiers and horses!" In Xiangyang City, in the city guard's mansion, Vice General Li picked up the wine bowl and drank it all, with a happy smile on his face, and said with a vicious face: "It's better to prepare a Mongolian Tartar to shoot an arrow to death!" ”

"That's not good!" A grim smile flashed on Guo Feng's face and said, "I don't want him to sacrifice his life for the country so quickly." ”

"Oh?" Zheng Hu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and looked at Guo Feng with some annoyance at random and said, "Didn't you get any benefit from that kid?" ”

"I wish so." Guo Feng snorted coldly and said: "But it seems that this prince is very arrogant, I just think that when he is beaten by the Mongols and comes back to pray for us, how can he be humiliated." ”

"Haha, that's really a pleasure!" Li Deba was stunned when he heard this, laughed randomly, pointed at Guo Feng and said with a smile: "You Bohan, you are really full of bad water, but ...... I like it! ”

"Master, generals, Guo Daxia is asking to see you outside the door!" The official of the city guard mansion quickly entered the hall and said to everyone: "It is said that there is an important military situation to tell. ”

"No, if there is any important military information, let him ask the prince, you don't have to ask me again!" Lu Wenhuan waved his hand a little impatiently.

"Wait!" Guo Feng got up suddenly, stopped the housekeeper, looked at Lu Wenhuan with a smile and said, "Lu Shuai, what's the harm when you see it, just right, through Guo Jing, to convey our hardships to this prince." ”

"Youli, let him in." Hearing this, Lu Wenhuan nodded, and waved to the housekeeper.

At the north gate, the Mongols had already begun to attack, and Huang Rong was worried and under the escort of the Wu brothers, he hurried to the north gate with Lu Youjiao and a group of elite disciples of the beggar gang.

"Shi Niang, look, the Mongol army is about to reach the city, why don't you fire arrows to resist the enemy!" Wu Xiuwen's eyes fell outside the city, the Mongol vanguard had already entered the range of the defenders with cowhide shields, but Chen Kang, who was in charge of the battle at the North Gate, had no intention of ordering shooting at this moment, and couldn't help but be surprised.

"Bastard, I'll ask him!" Lu Youjiao was also angry when he saw this, and was about to step forward, but was stopped by Huang Rong.

"Don't be impatient, let's take a look." Huang Rong shook her head, stopped the Wu brothers and Lu Youjiao who wanted to have a seizure, and looked at Chen Dang, who was standing directly above the city gate.

"Have you remembered everything you just taught!?" Chen Dang looked closely at the Mongol formation at this moment, slowly raised his right hand, and said sharply: "Raise the bow!" ”

"Crunch~" In the sound of the bowstring pulling, the archers in the front row pulled the longbow in their hands to perfection and aimed the bow and arrow into the air, but the archers in the back row only twisted the bow and took the arrow, but did not trigger it.

"What is he doing here!?" Wu Xiuwen couldn't help it, and without waiting for Huang Rong to stop him, he was about to step forward and question.

"First row, put!" Chen Kang's right hand swung down fiercely, and a row of sharp arrows broke out of the air, and at the same time, the archers who had finished shooting their bows and arrows quickly retreated, and the archers in the back row stepped forward and raised their bows and arrows.

"Second row, put!"

"Third row, put!"

With Chen Kang's orders, rows of arrows burst through the air and shot into the sky, and when they reached the highest peak, the arrows turned and shot fiercely at the archers of the Mongol army, who were protected by shields.

There was a continuous scream under the city, and the archers of the Song army at the north gate were divided into three rows, shooting out a continuous rain of arrows like a cycle, although it was not as dense as the rain of arrows shot at the same time, but it was better than the continuous, plus the advantage of the city wall, for a while, the Mongolian archers were suppressed dead outside the range, and they could not advance an inch, while the sword and shield men holding their shields high in front did not know the situation in the rear, and still slowly and firmly marched towards the city wall, and between the two sides, there was a huge separation zone.

"Roll the wood, put it!" Seeing that the ladders were erected, Chen Dang handed over the command to the adjutant general who followed, and the general who commanded the rear in an orderly manner pushed the rolling logs down from the ladders, without the cover of the archers, the sword and shield hands gathered under the city wall immediately became the target of no power to fight back, and were smashed by a huge piece of rolling logs with screams and screams, and after dropping hundreds of corpses, in a burst of golden sounds, began to retreat.

"Catapult, boom me!" Looking at the Mongolian soldiers who pushed back, Chen Dang had no intention of stopping, and with an order, the catapult erected on the city wall started violently, and one by one huge stones smashed into the formation of the Mongolian army, smashing the already scattered formation into pieces.

"Wu Shaoxia, is there something wrong?" After giving the last order, Chen Dare turned his head and looked at Wu Xiuwen, who was still angry on his face and was about to ask the teacher for his guilt, and asked expressionlessly.

"Uh...... It's okay, I just want to ask General Chen, the beggar gang disciples have been assembled, is there anything you need our help with? Wu Xiuwen smiled and asked with a haha.

"Thank you for your kindness, not for now." Looking at Huang Rong, Chen Dang was stunned, then arched his hand from afar, and looked at the Mongols who were defeated under the wild bombardment of the trebuchet, waiting for the other party to attack again. (To be continued......)
