Guo Jing walked up to the city wall with an ugly face, and the officialdom of Xiangyang suddenly made him a little strange, but more of an inexplicable grief in his heart.

In order to defend their homeland, the people in the city would rather go hungry than sacrifice the small amount of food they have at home, but what they saw and heard in the city guard mansion completely subverted his previous cognition.

Guo Jing knew that the imperial court would allocate a sum of money to Xiangyang every year, but where did this money go, Guo Jing did not know, the armament of the Xiangyang defenders was rarely replaced, in the past, he also asked Lu Wenhuan, but Lu Wenhuan always had a set of well-founded rhetoric, but although Guo Jing was honest, he was not a fool after all, what he saw and heard today, he probably guessed where the military expenditure went.

"Cadaver vegetarian meal!"

Inexplicably, Guo Jing, who didn't have much ink in his stomach, suddenly flashed such a word in his heart, he didn't understand, what were these people thinking in their minds?

"Roar~"

The cheers of the mountain and the tsunami interrupted Guo Jing's train of thought, and he raised his head suspiciously, looking at the cheering soldiers on the city wall, there were not many traces of war left on the city wall, but it seemed that the battle was over.

So fast?

Guo Jing walked to the crowd with some confusion, and looked at the sky again, with Guo Jing's many years of experience in defending the city and his understanding of the Mongols, although today's battle was only a tentative attack, it would not end so soon.

"Rong'er, what's going on? Why did the Mongols suddenly retreat? In the crowd, Guo Jing found Huang Rong, his eyes swept through the city, and he swept out of the city, but what he saw was devastated and entities all over the ground, and he looked at the soldiers guarding the city. But there was not much loss, when did the Song army's combat power become so strong?

"Brother Jing, guarding Xiangyang, there is hope." Huang Rong said with a smile.

The headless words made Guo Jing's brain, which was already a little chaotic because of anger, unable to react for a while, just looking at the Song army soldiers around him who seemed to have won a battle. The mood is inexplicably much better, and the mood is contagious.

"Lord, Guo Jing has failed to be entrusted and failed to invite him to be listed as a general." Seeing Li Xuan's figure coming, Guo Jing said with some shame, after all, before, he swore that he would let the generals return, but the result was ...... Guo Jing didn't even dare to tell the experience in the Taishou Mansion. With the heart of this prince, those people are afraid that they will suffer, but now Xiangyang can no longer withstand the internal toss.

"It's okay, those old soldiers, I can't afford it." Waving his hand, Li Xuan was in a good mood, although it was not unexpected to repel the Mongols. But Su zhì Li Xuan of the Xiangyang garrison was still very satisfied, at least compared to the Song army in other places. The Song army here is more like a soldier, at least able to do the order and prohibition.

"Lord Wang, now is the time to employ people, don't be reckless!" Although he was also disappointed in the guards of the corpse vegetarian meal, Guo Jing had his own overall situation in his heart. Right now, it is clear that this is not the time to withdraw.

"Brother Jing, this time, you just listen to the prince's orders." Huang Rong pulled Guo Jing's sleeve and said with a smile.

"Ugh. Rong'er ......" Guo Jing looked at his wife differently, not knowing why.

……

"King Xiangyang, Li Xuan!" In the Mongolian camp, Kublai Khan looked at the number of reports in his hand, his sword eyebrows furrowed, and after a long time, he slammed his fist on the table and said hatefully: "Great enemy! ”

Under the tent, a group of generals were silent, today's siege battle, basically participated, but the lethality of the defenders this time, but these Mongolian proud soldiers were staggered, just less than two hours of fierce battles, the loss of troops has caught up with the loss of the past three days, and according to the statistics of the number of jù, the loss of the city defense is smaller than in the past, if according to this ratio, although the defenders are only 50,000, but the first to consume is them.

"The prince doesn't have to worry, although the king of Xiangyang has the ability, if he wants to defeat him, it may not be too difficult." The scribe slowly stood up and said with a smile.

"I only hope that Yin Kexi and them can get rid of this person, and they can also get rid of a big trouble for my Mongolia!" Kublai Khan nodded.

"Definitely." The scribe shook his head and said with a smile: "In my opinion, Yin Kexi's warriors may not be able to make contributions, you know, this Xiangyang King is around, but there are golden swords and horses guarding on the side, the prince thinks, how are Yin Kexi's four people compared to Guo Jing?" ”

"This ......" Kublai Khan hesitated for a moment and said with a wry smile: "Probably not the enemy." ”

Although he didn't know martial arts, Guo Jing's prestige in Mongolia was too great, if he hadn't come to the Song Dynasty later, the position of the first warrior in Mongolia would definitely belong to him.

"Assassination, after all, is just a trick, although the general trend of the Southern Dynasty has gone, but as far as I know, there are many masters among the martial artists of the Southern Dynasty, and now they are gathered in Xiangyang, with the protection of these masters, don't say that Li Xuan himself also has good martial arts, but he is not skilled in martial arts, and it is impossible to kill him among so many masters."

"Then what is Mr. Liu's clever plan?" Kublai Khan's eyes suddenly lit up and looked at the middle-aged scribe.

"I don't dare to be a clever plan, in fact, if the prince carefully studies the past of the Song Dynasty, this plan is not difficult." The middle-aged man smiled.

"Oh?" Kublai Khan looked at the middle-aged scribe in bewilderment.

"There is the Song Dynasty, since the founding of the country, there has never been a shortage of famous generals, the Yang general, Di Qing and even the famous anti-gold general Yue Fei, which one is not a peerless general who makes the enemy frightened and does not dare to be sharp, but does the prince know how these people died in the end?"

"Sir is ......" Kublai Khan's eyes lit up when he heard this, it seems that since the founding of the Song Dynasty, those famous generals who have contributed to the present generation have finally died in the hands of their own people.

"Yes, instead of letting us fight with them here in Xiangyang, it is better to let him be like that Yue Fei and serve the country loyally." The middle-aged scribe had a mocking and sad smile on his face.

"Then, in the opinion of Mr. Yi, is it possible to subdue this person and use it for my use?" Kublai Khan thought for a moment and suddenly asked.

"This ...... It's hard, I'm afraid. The middle-aged scribe said with a wry smile when he heard this, judging from the other party's appearance during this time, if he wants to subdue the other party, it may be easier to storm Xiangyang, after all, in terms of power, the other party can almost be said to be a prince, and there is no shortage of wealth, and the middle-aged scribe really can't think of anything else that can attract the other party besides these two.

"It's a pity." Kublai Khan shook his head and sighed: "Such a talent, but he was not born in my Mongolia. ”

"I'll leave this matter to the gentleman, and if you can, try to subdue this person."

"Don't worry, the prince will see this matter within three months." The middle-aged scribe nodded seriously.

"Lord Wang, the grain and grass in the army have run out, and the remaining grain and grass may not be enough for three days in the army." At this moment, a general hurriedly entered the king's tent and said with an ugly face.

"Haven't those rogues in the area of Funiu Mountain been cleared yet?" Kublai Khan raised his eyebrows, suddenly felt a little unusual, and hurriedly looked at Shi Tianze, who was in charge of this matter.

"I was about to report to the prince, in the Funiu Mountain, there are an amazing number of rogues hidden, far from the only hundreds of people we predicted before, these days the officials have designed several encirclement and suppression, but the other party roared in the mountains and forests, our army could not enter, if you abandon the horse to enter, it is easy to be attacked by the other party, in the past two days, only on the Funiu Mountain, there have been two chasing warriors who have not returned." Shi Tianze got up and said with a sad brow.

"Lord, I suspect that this group of people is probably also the people arranged by the king of Xiangyang, as far as I know, the king of Xiangyang came this time, and there are 30,000 troops accompanying him, but the day before yesterday I heard the battle report, but the other party only brought a hundred people into the city, and the rest of the troops, in addition to the Song army camp along the river, Xiaguan suspects that there must be an army, otherwise it is just a rogue, how can I be the opponent of my Mongolian iron cavalry?" The middle-aged scribe raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice.

"It's him again!" Kublai Khan suddenly felt a little tightness in his chest, as if since the king of Xiangyang appeared in Xiangyang City, nothing had gone smoothly: "He is forcing me to fight him!" ”

"Let people transport the grain in the Nanyang area first." Kublai Khan said in a deep voice, this is just an expedient measure, Nanyang is not a granary, the grain stock is limited, and it is simply not enough to supply the trumpet of the 200,000 army, but at this moment, he has no other way.
