Chapter 69: The Returning Ninja

"Lord Wang, you can't do anything, if you continue to fight, it will only increase casualties!" Ah Shu looked at the city wall surrounded by firelight, sighed slightly, and turned his gaze to Kublai Khan.

"Collect the troops! It's almost time. Kublai Khan looked at the city of Xiangyang, which was blocked by the fire, even if he was forced by the Mongol knights, those damned slaves did not want to take another step, and even a small number of mutinies had already occurred, and now it was late at night, if it caused a large-scale mutiny of the slaves, even if it was a well-trained Mongol knight, in the night battle, damage was inevitable, but this was by no means what Kublai Khan wanted to see.

"When?" Ah Shu looked at Kublai Khan suspiciously, but saw Kublai Khan's gaze, and at this moment he was looking in the direction of the river, and vaguely, a fleet seemed to appear on the river.

"Our food has arrived!" The corners of Kublai Khan's mouth twitched slightly, revealing a confident smile.

"Uh......" Ah Shu was slightly stunned, and then reacted, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

On the city of Xiangyang, looking at the army of slaves who retreated in a hurry like a lost dog, the tense nerves were slightly relaxed, but there was not much joy of victory, everyone knew that this was just the beginning, a heavy sense of depression lingered in everyone's hearts, but at this moment, they suddenly heard the cheers of the mountains and tsunamis from the Mongolian camp opposite.

"What's the situation!?" Everyone had a puzzled expression on their faces, although it was not defeated, it was definitely not a victory, what kind of cheers?

"Look over there!" Someone suddenly discovered something, pointed in the direction of the Han River and said loudly, everyone hurriedly looked back, through the faint moonlight, they could see the bank of the Han River, a whole large fleet of ships had been moored on the shore at the moment, and the slave army that had just left the battlefield was driven by the Mongolian knights. Constantly carrying supplies.

"It's Liu Quan!" Looking at the handsome flags fluttering in the wind above the flagship, several Xiangyang guards gritted their teeth and said hatefully, the other party obviously took advantage of this battle to attract the power of the Song people's naval division, and Liu Quan took the opportunity to lead the fleet to cross the defense line that originally belonged to the Xiangyang naval division, and successfully transported the materials against the current.

Liu Quan. Originally, he was also a famous general of the Great Song Dynasty Naval Division, but unfortunately later he was greedy for glory and wealth, and joined the Mongols, and even helped the Mongols train the naval army to deal with the Song Dynasty Naval Division.

"Careless!" Li Xuan stood at the head of the city, looking at the size of the fleet, silently calculating in his heart the limit of what this fleet could transport, this material was enough to solve the immediate needs of the Mongolian army. Li Xuan shook his head with some regret, in this way, the problem of grain and grass that plagued the Mongols was temporarily alleviated, and now it seems that Kublai Khan attacked Xiangyang at any cost, but not to break Xiangyang, but to hide from the sky and the sea, but to cover this fleet.

"Lord Wang. What do we do now? Guo Jing didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment, since the other party had received food and grass. The offensive may slow down a bit, at least not as crazy as it is today, but it also allows Kublai Khan to have no worries for the time being, and can devote all his energy to Xiangyang, and most importantly, in case the other side discovers the secrets of the upstream military camp. The previous qiē preparation was going to be in vain.

"Go according to plan, don't be interrupted by the other party!" Li Xuan turned around and walked towards the city, his voice floating faintly: "Be prepared to fight a tough battle, fight today." Although there were no losses to our army, the morale and the energy of the soldiers were greatly consumed, and Kublai Khan could not stop there. ”

Maybe it won't be as crazy as it is today, but it definitely won't make it easy for them.

In fact, as Li Xuan expected, Kublai Khan, who received sufficient food and grass supplies, did not relax his suppression of Xiangyang City, and in the next time, troops would be organized to storm Xiangyang City every day, the main force was still the slave army, but it was interspersed with many Mongolian warriors, although the number was not much, but with the addition of this group of Mongolian warriors, the attack of the slave army was more sharp, and Xiangyang City was inevitably killed and injured under such an attack, but relatively speaking, it was still within the acceptable range of Li Xuan.

In addition, there has been news from Tang Jun's side recently, the Mongol territory near Funiu Mountain has begun to gather troops to continuously sweep Funiu Mountain, and want to open up the grain road, although Tang Jun has eliminated a lot, but the surrounding states and counties are still increasing their troops, and constantly expanding the search range of Funiu Mountain, two teams have lost contact a few days ago, and the situation has begun to deteriorate.

"Sue Tang Jun, try to delay the opening of the grain road in Funiu Mountain as much as possible, if you really can't do anything, give priority to preserving the living force." The book written by Li Xuan was sealed and handed over to the guard, who would hand over the letter to Tang Jun along with Li Xuan's words.

"Lord Wang." After sending off the guards, before he could sit down, he saw that Guo Jing had come in from outside the door in a hurry, and he had been participating in the defense of Xiangyang City almost sleeplessly for several days.

"Guo Daxia." Li Xuan raised his head, looked at Guo Jing's state, shook his head a little wordlessly, and said: "Mrs. Zun is about to give birth, take some time to accompany her, Xiangyang has everyone to take care of her." ”

At the mention of Huang Rong, Guo Jing couldn't help but flash a look of guilt on his face, counting, he was not a good husband, but at this moment, he couldn't help but be half relaxed, nodded and said: "Guo will pay attention, Lord Wang, the girl from Qiandao is back." ”

"Let her in!" Li Xuan nodded, calculating the time, it was already time to give Qiandao Moon the time, and it was time to accept the results.

"Master." In Guo Jing's surprised gaze, Qiandaoyue appeared indoors so silently, even with Guo Jing's martial arts attainments, he didn't notice when the other party appeared.

"Yes, a breakthrough?" Li Xuan looked at Qiandaoyue with satisfaction, after practicing internal strength, with ninjutsu, her strength has long been different, and today's Qiandaoyue has definitely surpassed those so-called gods in the real world.

"Hmm." Qiandaoyue nodded, then took a pair of scrolls, respectfully placed them in front of Li Xuan's table and said: "Three hundred and eighteen soldiers, thirty-six qualified, ready to be dispatched by the master, this is the deployment of the Mongolian battalion." ”

"Qualified, what is the strength?" Li Xuan put the scroll aside, now Xiangyang is not capable of attacking the Mongolian camp, and no matter how detailed the defense map is, it is useless.

"Back to the master, if you talk about combat effectiveness, the thirty-six qualified ones can be compared with Sakura Shangnin, but if you talk about assassination, you can only be worthy of the responsibility of the current ninja, if you don't go head-to-head, Yue has the confidence to kill them all." Qiandao Moon replied.

Compared with the real world, the average strength of this world is much higher, and the elites of each battalion were selected at the beginning, plus the supply of exercises and some elixirs, it is not difficult for these people to form combat effectiveness, and they can reach the combat effectiveness of the upper ninja level in reality, but ninjas are not warriors, their purpose is to assassinate, if it comes to assassination skills, these people are obviously just getting started.

"It's not too high, but it's better than nothing, the rest of the skills, let them slowly explore in the battle, now, take your men and horses to blend into the Mongol slave camp, and create a mutiny as much as possible, for three days, after three days, no matter what the result, withdraw immediately!"

Three days later, it was also the day agreed with Huang Yaoshi, but in these three days, if it was purely for the defenders of Xiangyang, it was difficult to hold it, and the war potential of Xiangyang City had reached its limit and even overloaded at this time.

"Yes!" With a word, the figure had become blurred, and the next moment it had completely disappeared into the room, leaving Guo Jing with a surprised look on his face looking at Li Xuan in a daze. (To be continued......)
