090 Mongol retreat
The two ambushes went smoothly, and under the command of Lin Heng and Huang Rong, hundreds of beggar gang disciples killed the Mongolian soldiers who came forward without many deaths, and their actions also made the Mongolian generals in Nanyang angry. It's just that at this time, it was the time to escort the grain and grass, and he couldn't get angry anymore, so he could only send more sergeants to escort the grain and grass.
Lin Heng and the others, seeing that there were more Mongolian soldiers escorting grain and grass, they no longer attacked, after all, in the face of thousands of Mongolian troops, no matter how good they were, there would be casualties.
Several times in a row, the army of the Mongolian army escorting grain and grass was more than 1,000 people, which made Lin Heng and the others completely helpless. There was no way, a few people could only get together to discuss the solution.
It is obviously not possible to sneak into Nanyang now, because there are more than 20,000 troops guarding it, and even if you and others enter Nanyang, I am afraid that you will not be able to burn the grain and grass, so what is the difference between going in and not going in? So, they had to attract more Mongol soldiers.
Sitting on the hillside, Lin Heng frowned and thought. He doesn't know much about the art of war, or he knows a lot about it, but if you ask him to recite it, it won't work. Therefore, he can only find a way to find examples of later generations, and summarize a set of feasible methods. Don't say it, there are examples to follow, it will definitely be much simpler.
No, after thinking about it for a while, Lin Heng thought of a strange way.
In the Anti-Japanese War, the communist army used tunnel warfare, and here, they can also use tunnel warfare! However, instead of using tunnel warfare to destroy the enemy, they used tunnel warfare to infiltrate Nanyang and infiltrate the Mongolian military camp to secretly burn their grain and grass.
Lin Heng told Huang Rong his thoughts, and Huang Rong felt that it was feasible after hearing it, but if you want to accurately sneak into Nanyang and find the Mongolian camp, you must find someone to sneak in first. Among them, the ones who can do it without knowing the ghosts are Lin Heng and Master Yideng. This method was thought of by Lin Heng, and he took the initiative to take on the task.
And in order to ensure that this plan was perfectly achieved, Huang Rong made up for the shortcomings of Lin Heng's plan, that is, to continue to ambush the Mongolian people escorting grain and grass outside to attract their attention.
After everything was agreed, Lin Heng led five beggar disciples with good light skills to quietly touch Nanyang City under the night. They recorded the time of the change of Mongol sergeants, and took the opportunity to climb the city wall and infiltrate the city of Nanyang.
In Nanyang City, there was a stronghold of the beggar gang, but because of the martial law imposed by the Mongol army, they could not leave the city and could not send news. Now that a few people are here, the beggar disciples here are naturally happy, and when Lin Heng and the others said the same thing, they all nodded in response, and then a group of people began to collect burning things such as fire oil and wine, and some of them dug tunnels leading to the Mongolian army in the stronghold day and night.
During this period, Lin Heng secretly sneaked into the place where Mongolia stored grain and grass. It was once the county government warehouse, where a large part of the grain and grass of hundreds of thousands of troops gathered. Lin Heng believed that as long as they could sneak in quietly, they would definitely be able to burn all the grain and grass with one fire.
Back at the stronghold, Lin Heng explained to the beggar gang disciples: "Now we are divided into two groups, one group to dig the tunnel to the county government, and the other group to dig the tunnel out of the city. This time, if we succeed in burning Mongolian grain and grass, it is impossible for the Mongols not to withdraw, so don't stay in the city anymore. And just in case, it's best for us to bring Mrs. Guo and the others into the city first. ”
The beggar disciples had no opinion when they heard this, and immediately carried it out. There are not many beggar disciples here, that is, about a dozen. But that's enough. Lin Heng divided the thirteen-person beggar gang disciples into six teams, two people in the fifth team, and three people in the first team. Among the six teams, four teams excavated tunnels, with two people in each team, constantly taking over the excavation; The remaining two teams, one patrolling day and night, and the other collecting combustion. And he himself, recuperate.
The speed of the excavation was very fast, almost maintaining the excavation speed of seventy or eighty meters a day, if it took about three days or so, they first dug through the tunnel out of the city. Lin Heng was overjoyed when he saw this, and immediately transferred those people to another tunnel, while he himself went out of the city and contacted Huang Rong and the others.
In the past three days, Huang Rong and others have also attacked the Mongolian army several times, but they have a lot of people every time, so they retreat every time, and occasionally burn Mongolian grain and grass, but not much. In this regard, Huang Rong was very anxious, but there was no choice but to pin her hopes on Lin Heng's side. Fortunately, Lin Heng came today, she was very happy, and as soon as Lin Heng told the matter, she took everyone and Lin Heng to sneak into Nanyang City from the tunnel.
After more than five days, the beggar gang disciples finally dug through the tunnel that infiltrated the county government's grain and grass land. Huang Rong couldn't wait, and immediately set off with everyone. She asked all the beggar disciples to hold a jar of burning things one by one, and instructed them to pour it up first and then light it after entering the land of grain and grass, so as to burn the grain and grass of the Mongolian army at one time.
The actions of the people were smooth, after they infiltrated the county office, Lin Heng and Master Yideng solved the guard disciples on the road, and then everyone quickly poured wine and fire oil on the grain and grass. Then, a fire rose into the sky, reflecting the entire county office. At the first moment, the gongs and drums sounded in the county ya, and then a pair of Mongolian soldiers rushed over with weapons in hand, wearing armor, and with murderous faces.
However, when they arrived, the grain and grass were already covered with flames, and there was no way to extinguish the fire, and Lin Heng and the others also quietly sneaked into the tunnel, returned to the stronghold unconsciously, and then did not stay for a moment, and quickly sneaked out of the city after burying the hole entrance.
Out of the city, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, especially Huang Rong, who had a long-lost smile on her face. She knew that this fire had burned up the food and grass of the Mongol army, and they had to retreat next.
Sure enough, everything was as Huang Rong expected, and the commander of the Mongolian army scolded angrily after he learned that his grain and grass had been burned. But now that the burning is burning, he has no choice but to order the army to retreat, but he is very unwilling, so he ordered the whole army to attack the city before leaving. This siege was definitely the most powerful, and countless Mongolian soldiers bravely rushed to the city head regardless of their own life and death, and even attacked the city wall several times, but Guo Jing was also good enough to drive the Mongolian soldiers off the city wall many times.
Half a day after attacking Xiangyang, the commander of the Mongol army saw that there was no way but had to order a retreat. Since then, Guo Jing has once again held Xiangyang.
Lin Heng and the others outside had been paying attention to this big battle, and when they saw the Mongol army attacking Xiangyang regardless of life and death, they were very worried. Fortunately, the result after the most lucrative is good. Among several people, Huang Rong is the most worried. No, as soon as the Mongol army retreated, she led the beggars into the city.
As soon as he entered the city, Lin Heng felt a little depressed around him. Because it's so quiet here. If you win, you should be happy! But this is not the case. This time, the Mongol army besieged Xiangyang for more than a month, and attacked the city every day. Although Xiangyang was defended under the leadership of Guo Jing, there were many people who died. These disciples are all the people around their Xiangyang, and none of them have relatives, so they died, and everyone was very sad. That's why no one is happy.
Along the way, Lin Heng saw a lot of military service covered in wounds, and looking at them, Lin Heng felt inexplicably uncomfortable in his heart.
He doesn't like war, and you can even say he hates it, because when you get to the battlefield, you have to kill, kill for no reason. For ancient people, going to the battlefield can be used to talk about the country's righteousness, but Lin Heng is a modern person, and he has some thoughts of equality in his heart, which makes him unwilling to kill people indiscriminately, and the battlefield is a place to kill people indiscriminately, so he doesn't like it.
The Mongols were murderous, and if they were allowed to occupy the Great Song Dynasty, the Han people would definitely live in misery, and even most of the Han people would die. This is a record of history, Lin Heng is not ignorant of the Tao. It can be known that the road is returned to the road. As a modern person, do you know less about the Tao? Not a lot, even a lot. But when you do it, it's a different story.
If Lin Heng did not cross into the martial arts world, and he did not have this high level of martial arts, then he would probably be put into the battlefield, because he would not be able to tolerate him at that time. However, he is in a martial arts world, and he is also a master himself, which makes him not want to change his mind. Therefore, he has always hated going to the battlefield and refuses to go to the battlefield. Only occasionally, he would come here.
But this time, seeing those fathers and elders who had lost their loved ones, and seeing those men who were desperate to defend the city, Lin Heng had the idea of helping them. Perhaps, he just wants to be a military advisor and give advice behind his back. But the more he can do and the more he sees, his mind will eventually change. It may not be long before he himself will become a character like Guo Jing!
Taking a deep breath, Lin Heng suppressed all kinds of thoughts in his heart, and he decided to have a good talk with Guo Jing and Huang Rong.
