After Jiang Xian left, Qin Zhuofeng suddenly turned his head, stared at Zhu Quan with both eyes, and asked softly, "Do you need to find an opportunity for the teacher to get rid of this surnamed Jiang?" ”

After Zhu Quan pondered for a moment, he said softly: "Let's talk about this matter later, although he is insidious and vicious, now after all, he is in the same boat, and the purpose of this trip is still the same, let's solve the Yuan army in Liaodong." Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and suddenly chuckled: "Let's come with Jiang Xian this time, and we are not afraid of any tricks he will play, if something happens to the two of us, Lan Yu's crab must eat him raw." Zhu Yuanzhang there, he couldn't explain it. He recalled the hatefulness of Lan Yu looking for his own debts, and couldn't help but ridicule this brutal young general as a crab.

Xu Ying thought deeply and nodded lightly.

"Yes, we martial arts practitioners should act in such a clear way. No matter how bad Jiang Xian is, but now we are facing the common enemy, is the Mongolian Tartars, the old man used to assassinate Ying'er's father Xu Da on the order of Chen Youliang, and finally faced him, he did not start, but also deeply felt that the Mongolian Tartars were our mortal enemies, and did not want the rebels to kill each other. Qin Zhuofeng smiled and patted Zhu Quan's shoulder, and suddenly sighed, feeling very comfortable in his heart. It turned out that he agreed to teach Zhu Quan's martial arts in the past, mostly for the sake of his beloved apprentice Xu Ying, and today he was very satisfied with Zhu Quan's answer.

On the walls of Gyeongju Castle, a Mongolian general wearing armor and slightly gray temples with eagle-nosed harrier eyes was leading several guards to patrol, and beside him was a burly young Mongolian commander. It was Pingzhang Guolai under the command of Nahachu and his son Haili Creek. .com

In the city of Gyeongju under their right, it was very busy, thousands of Mongolian soldiers were demolishing a piece of the boss's dwellings, sorting the bricks and wood, and transporting them to the city wall in a steady stream, the bricks and stones increased the height of the city wall, but the logs were sawn into sections, which were used to make rolling wood when the Ming army attacked Gyeongju.

At this time, on the streets of Gyeongju City, all the Mongolian soldiers were shuttling back and forth, but there was not a single Han people. There were tens of thousands of Han people in this Gyeongju city, but since Nahachu and other Mongol armies retreated to Liaodong and occupied Gyeongju, they have been rampant, raped and plundered, causing tens of thousands of people to die and flee, and it has become a veritable military fortress, except for the Yuan army, there is no Han people.

Hai Lixi turned his head to look at the vacant land in the city where half of the houses were demolished and the boss was vacated, and he couldn't help frowning slightly, and asked: "Father, this time, Feng Sheng and Fu Youde, the two old sons, although they led an army of 200,000 to attack. But there are more than 200,000 people under the command of Lord Taiwei, and such battles in the Liaodong Plain are greatly beneficial to our cavalry, so why do you want to make a big fuss about demolishing people's houses to build city walls? It's freezing for the past few days, and the 20,000 sons under my command are stationed outside the city, and it's very cold at night, so why don't you let me wait for the day to be stationed outside the city and rest in the city at night? ”

He has been following the military orders of Nahachu and his father, leading his 20,000 elite knights to camp outside the city, and the weather has been freezing for a long time, but he still has not seen the shadow of the Ming army.

"Bastard, to this day, we are cramped in Liaodong, and we are still underestimating these Han people. Guolai couldn't help but be annoyed when he saw his son say this easily. He snorted a few times in his nose, and asked angrily: "Do you think why our Great Yuan Dynasty has fallen to such a point?" ”

Seeing his father's sudden anger, Hai Lixi couldn't help but scratch his head, not knowing why.

Guolai's eyes showed a trace of helplessness, sighed, and continued: "If we lose, we will lose in the word light enemy, when my father was young, he was as young and vigorous as you, thinking that we were warriors of the Golden Horde, invincible with bows and horses, sweeping away all countries, and rampaging the world, how could he have put Zhu Yuanzhang, Chen Youliang, Zhang Shicheng in his eyes?" But what does it turn out to be? Genghis Khan's grandson, Khan Meng Geqin led hundreds of thousands of troops to besiege the Diaoyu City in Sichuan, and was wounded and died by artillery stones. In the past, how talented was the prime minister of the Yuan Court? He personally led an army of 400,000 and besieged Zhang Shicheng in Gaoyou for three months, but the result was also a loss of troops, with more than 200,000 casualties, and still failed to capture Gaoyou. It can be seen that although the Han people are not our opponents on horseback, they do have a lot of hands in urban offensive and defensive warfare. These methods of defending the city were all heard and witnessed when I was fighting with the Han people in the past. Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at the endless plains outside Gyeongju City, and said in a deep voice: "So this time in the face of Zhu Yuanzhang's fierce generals Feng Sheng and Fu Youde, you must not underestimate the enemy." As the commander of the cavalry, you should defend the outside of the city. ”

Hai Lixi had no choice but to nod, Guolai smiled with satisfaction, and suddenly said: "Although Lord Taiwei is a little afraid of the enemy and war, as long as we hit the Ming army under this Qingzhou City, he wants to negotiate peace with Zhu Yuanzhang, but I am afraid that it will not be possible." ”

Haili Creek suddenly showed a little dissatisfaction, and said with some annoyance: "The general of the defeated army of Highlander, he often points fingers when he comes to our army, does he still think he is in Mobei?" It's really annoying to think about. ”

"Oh." Hearing this, he couldn't help frowning, it turned out that Hailanda was the henchman of the Taishi Barbarian of the Mobei Yuanting, just because Nahachu had a self-respecting army in Liaodong, and he violated the holy decree of the Emperor of the Mobei Yuanting.

Guo Lai recalled the current grim situation, and still persuaded: "There are thousands of people under his command, and when he first came to Liaodong, he didn't know how powerful Lan Yu was, and it was not surprising that he suffered some losses." "It turned out that after Highlander came to Gyeongju to help Guolai's father and son, he was hesitant to lead more than 3,000 remnants of the army, and there was no clear explanation, and both Guolai and his son thought that he was defeated by Lan Yu.

At this time, Shen Peng's caravan had already traveled only a few miles away from Gyeongju. Zhu Quan, Xu Ying, and Jiang Xian, under the leadership of Qin Zhuofeng, climbed a higher hillside, looked forward, and saw that at the head of Gyeongju City in the distance, the ant-colony-like Yuan army was stepping up the construction of a heightened city wall, the south gate was closed, and the camp tent was continuous outside the north gate, and it was obvious that there were heavy troops stationed. When everyone saw the preparation of the Yuan army as if facing the enemy, their hearts sank.

Qin Zhuofeng had also been in the military in the past, and his knowledge far surpassed that of the rest of the people, and he frowned when he saw this: "It seems that this Pingzhang is really difficult to deal with." The old man once heard Shen Peng's kid say, although this Gyeongju is not very big, there are still four gates of east, west, south and north. If the old man did not guess wrong, the 20,000 or 30,000 horses outside his city must have been light horses, and there were another 20,000 or 30,000 elite foot soldiers in the city. ”

When Zhu Quan heard this, he thought for a moment and said: "If we send tens of thousands of elite infantry to forcibly attack the city, his twenty or thirty thousand knights will inevitably detour behind our army and form a flanking attack. If we send tens of thousands of elite knights to attack his cavalry, he will be able to retreat calmly into the north gate when he is defeated, and if our army approaches the city wall in pursuit, it will inevitably suffer the rain of arrows on the wall. And his cavalry can calmly come out of the south gate and flank our army. "He has personally experienced two battles, when Highlander led the army to attack Lanyu at night, the Northern Yuan cavalry hit and ran, coming and going like the wind, and he had left a very deep impression in his mind.

"Yes, even if our army has hundreds of thousands of people, in the face of such a strong city, it is difficult to attack it in a hurry, if his cavalry sees that our army is strong, but does not enter the city, runs away, and when our army attacks the city, it will be a headache. What's more, there is only about a quarter of Nahachu's military strength here, and in this vast plain of eastern Liaodong, tens of thousands of his elite cavalry come and go like the wind, and if the other hundreds of thousands of elite cavalry under his command take advantage of the exhaustion of our army to attack the city, it will be even more dangerous. Qin Zhuofeng said in a deep voice with a worried face.

Zhu Quan and the other three couldn't help but change color on their faces when they heard him explain like this. Zhu Quan looked at Gyeongju City from afar, secretly made up his mind in his heart, and thought: "It seems that this Pingzhang fruit is really stabbing his hands, since this is the case, I will definitely take his dog's life on this trip, and go on an expedition to Liaodong for the army, and pull out the nail of Gyeongju." ”
