Lin Heng ran away by himself, at this time, those martial arts people were scattered and fled, after all, the Mongolian army had come to its senses and began to encircle and suppress everyone, you see, the Song army was surrounded in the center. However, unlike everyone, Lin Heng did the Song army a great favor before escaping, he set fire to thousands of war horses and let them run around in the Mongolian camp. This move definitely killed many Mongolian soldiers, and also rescued the besieged Song army, allowing them to break through and return.

It's just that this battle is really miserable, how many people were killed by the Mongolian army, they don't know what to do, but as far as themselves, not to mention those martial arts people, that is, the Xinye Song army, nearly 3,000 people died. It can be said that more than half of them died.

With such a big loss, what the results of the exchange are, everyone doesn't know. But they knew that they had won the battle, because no one thought that the Mongol army would lose less than them. In fact, after this battle, the Mongol army suffered nearly 10,000 casualties, and lost 5,000 or 6,000 horses. It was definitely worth it to exchange the lives of more than 3,000 people for such a great victory.

Guo Jing, who was far away in Xiangyang, received the news as soon as possible, he was very excited, and personally led the army to see if there was a chance to give the Mongolian army another time. However, when they arrived, the Mongol army had already completed the whole army, including two teams of 15,000 people each, and encircled Xinye and Dengzhou, and the remaining 75,000 people went straight to Guo Jing's army.

No, Guo Jing had to retreat, and those armies also followed directly to Xiangyang City. At this time, Guo Jing had no other way than to defend the city.

At the same time, in Lin Heng's room in Shinno, he spat out a mouthful of black blood. This mouthful of black blood was the poisonous blood in his body, and now he expelled it from his body. It's just that Xiao Xiangzi's poison is very harmful, and although he successfully expelled it, he still feels weak. He knew that he would not be able to fully recover without three or four days.

Taking a breath, Lin Heng got up and cleaned up, asked people to pour out the black blood, and then walked to the courtyard alone. Here, three or five of us sat together and discussed with each other about the morning fight. This kind of fight is really shocking, even for them martial arts people. You see, there were about 300 of them when they went, but when they came back, there were only about 200, and most of them were wounded.

It's just that these people are not sad about these losses, but rejoice that they have made a sneak attack on the Mongol army. Of course, you can't say that they are cold-blooded, they are just satisfied with their results, and for the Jianghu people, death is a normal thing.

"Uncle Shi!" Seeing Qiu Chuji and the two beggar disciples sitting together, Lin Heng immediately went over to say hello. Qiu Chuji nodded at him and asked, "Is your injury healed?" ”

Lin Heng nodded, Qiu Chuji wilted his beard with satisfaction, and pointed to the two beside him: "Heng'er, these two are the elders of the beggar gang, let me introduce you to you." This is Elder Lu of the Beggar Gang, and this is Elder Liang. These two are the four elders of the Beggar Gang. ”

"Lin Heng has seen two elders!" Lin Heng immediately saluted when he heard this, he knew that Lu Daolu Youjiao was the leader of the beggar gang in the future, as for the other one, he didn't know the name of Lu Dao, but he was not interested in this person. Therefore, after everyone got to know each other, Lin Heng took the initiative to leave their table and walked to Yin Zhiping and them to listen to their conversation.

Everyone here said that they were happy, but the guards of the city wall over there were in a hurry, this time they killed and injured a lot of people, these people are usually used to defend the city. Now that it is half dead, how can the city be defended?

Patting his head, the guard looked at the Mongol army surrounding the city, looking helpless. Now, he could only pray that the Mongol army would not attack the city, otherwise it would not be able to hold it.

"General, I think we might as well talk to those martial arts people. Although they do not know how to march and set up formations, they all have inhuman force. Perhaps, we can bring them in and help us defend the city. A young general gave the guard an idea, and when he heard it, he felt very reasonable. Now in the city, in addition to him, there are those martial arts people, although there are not many of them, but they are all extremely powerful, if they help, they can control it themselves.

Thinking of this, the guard immediately stood up and rushed to the courtyard where everyone was. When everyone heard that the guard was coming, they immediately stood up one by one to greet him. The guard general was not polite, and directly told his difficulties, and everyone immediately patted their chests and promised to help defend the city. Fortunately, Qiu was calm enough, and with a loud shout, he restrained the noisy crowd and asked, "We only have more than 200 people, how does this help to defend the city?" Rather than defending the city, we should think more about how to force those armies back. If we can force the army back, then the city will not be defended! ”

"Yes, what Daoist Qiu said is reasonable, you let me guard the city, but I don't know how to guard the road. I think we might as well go out and kill for a while. ”

"What are you talking about? We won't defend the city, but won't the generals were? As long as they are willing to teach us, are you afraid that they will not be able to learn? ”

"Yes, it's too dangerous to go out and rush to kill, not only will we die outside, I'm afraid Xinye will also be unsafe, I think we should defend the city safely."

"I think you two are stupid, you don't want to think about it, we are only more than 200 people, in a war of tens of thousands of people, what is the use of us people defending the city. In my opinion, we should still use the method of the Huang gang leader, as a scout team, and go out to hunt and kill the Mongolian soldiers. This will not only delay their siege, but also allow the defenders to step up their training. As long as we have soldiers, we don't have to be afraid of those Mongol Tatars. ”

"Yes, yes, I think this brother has a point......

"What's the reason, I think it's better to do it with my method......"

All of a sudden, everyone quarreled again, and seeing that this hill was in place, the guards and others were all frowning, when everyone had no choice. At this time, Lin Heng took a step forward and shouted: "Everyone be quiet...... his voice was very loud, although he didn't use much internal force, but he also frightened everyone, and then they all looked at him. Lin Heng was not stunned, and immediately said: "Everyone, I think everyone should elect some representatives, discuss with the guards and others, and come up with a feasible plan." In this regard, we people are certainly inferior to the guards and others. But as the saying goes, three stinkers beat Zhuge Liang, even if we can't help much, we can come up with ideas, don't you think? ”

"That's right, that's right, what this little brother said is reasonable, it's not a matter for so many of us to be together, I think we can do what this little brother says!"

"That's right, we'll do it, Daoist Qiu, we'll choose you as our representative......"

All of a sudden, everyone had a heated discussion, but what they were discussing at this time was who to choose. Fortunately, everyone was sensible, and soon they stood together in groups, and one or two people were pushed out of the group. For example, the beggar gang, that is Elder Lu and Elder Liang, the Quanzhen Sect is Qiu Chuji, Lin Heng is the proposer, and he is also invited to participate.

In this way, thirteen people came out at the end, and everyone, together with the guard and the two left and right hands beside them, a total of sixteen people walked into the hall, while the others looked at the hall silently, waiting for them to discuss the solution.

Sitting in the lobby, everyone was speechless for a while, Qiu Chuji looked at this, and said to Lin Heng: "Lin Heng, you are the proposer of this method, I think you will make a start." ”

"Ah......" Lin Heng was stunned for a moment, and immediately said: "Master, I think it's better to let the guard general say it first, if he doesn't talk about the problem, we have nothing to say." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, that's it, Lord Guard, you can talk to us about it, what's the difficulty?" Qiu Chuji immediately patted his head and said to the guard.

The guard general was not polite when he heard this, and immediately told him about the difficulties he encountered. In fact, to put it bluntly, there is only one difficulty he encounters, that is, no one.

For the front-line cities of Xinye and Dengzhou, they do not lack weapons and items to defend the city, but there is a great shortage of soldiers, especially Xinye at this time. This time, they lost about 3,000 men, and the rest was just over 2,000, and with the soldiers who stayed in the city, the total was less than 3,000. Less than 3,000 soldiers were distributed among the four walls, and less than 1,000 on one side. If the Mongol army really attacked the city, Xinye would have to be broken in three days at most.

Hearing this, everyone's face is not good, if there is a lack of others, they think that they still have a way to think, but if they lack people, they really have no way, after all, they are only martial arts masters, not Taoist immortals, they can sprinkle beans into soldiers.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak one by one, the guard's face was not good-looking. On the side, Lin Heng was also very helpless, he couldn't, he knew that everyone had no choice, so he had to speak: "Seniors, I don't think it's so difficult for us." We are now short of men to defend against the Mongol army, but why should we let the Mongol army attack? Just now, a friend outside said very well, we are completely attacking the Mongol army. ”

"Attacking the Mongol army?" Everyone frowned, obviously thinking that Lin Heng's words were unreliable. In fact, you must know that the outside of the road is surrounded by an army of 15,000, and they will definitely be discovered as soon as they come out.

"Yes, we can attack the Mongol army at night." Lin Heng nodded and explained: "During the day, we can't get out, but at night, those Mongol troops must not be able to see what is on the city wall. In this way, we can go down the city walls. When the time comes, we will rush directly into the Mongol army and kill for a while, and then we will run. If we do this back and forth at night, it will surely keep the Mongol army awake. In this way, in the daytime, they don't even have the spirit, how can they attack the city? ”

"You can do that, but how do we get back?" The beggar helped Lu Youjiao frown and asked.

Lin Heng smiled confidently and said: "We can tie an iron chain on the city wall, the light work is good, enough to climb up along the iron chain, if the light work is not good, then break through to the outside." When the time comes, everyone agrees on a place to assemble, and after the assembly is completed, they will attack the Mongol army from behind. We attacked from both sides, day and night. Under our attack like this, the Mongol army, even if it is an iron man, he can't stand it. ”
