After dealing with the silly aunt's matter, Ye Lingfeng specially asked someone to clean out a small room next to the Military Machine Pavilion for her, and the side was Huang Yaoshi's residence, so that it was convenient for him to teach the silly aunt Peach Blossom Island martial arts.

Ye Lingfeng just wanted to settle down and practice, but he received a military report from the front line, it turned out that the Mongolian iron cavalry had recovered the remnants of Dajin's current defeated generals, and a puppet regime was established by Wanyan Honglie, but his brother's throne was not abolished, but it was already a puppet regime, and the current Dajin country could be said to be obedient to Mongolia.

Mongolia is finally going to raise troops to attack the Great Song Dynasty, this is unexpected, Ye Lingfeng has already handed over the military book left by Yue Wumu to Xin Qiji and Meng Zongzheng, the defenders of Xiangyang have been training together for nearly half a year, although there are only 8,000 people, but the actual combat power is at least comparable to 10,000 elite soldiers.

There was also good news from the Quanzhen Sect and the beggar gang, the four people of the Quanzhen Sect who were still in the Chongyang Palace unanimously decided to support Xiangyang City, and there were a total of 800 elite disciples from the Quanzhen Sect, and the old urchin boy, the oldest master, went to personally bring back the 500 disciples, and distributed them to the 8,000 defenders after being dotted by Huang Yaoshi, the military advisor.

There is also the beggar gang, Hong Qigong's number of people after integration has a total of more than 200,000 people, which is a fairly huge population base, even if it is scattered into the army, the elite of the integration can have nearly 50,000 people.

However, there are probably only nearly 150,000 people who can bring Xiangyang, and there is no way, the imperial court carefully observes the flow of Dakou, for fear that in this era of war and chaos, there will be an uprising force inside. The Great Song Zhao clan had already exhausted themselves in managing the front-line military aircraft, and where were there any extra idle soldiers to wage war internally.

Today's Xiangyang can be said to be the first leader of the Mongol attack on the Great Song Dynasty, in order to soothe people's hearts and let the front-line soldiers fight to the death, the imperial court specially transferred 100,000 people, 80,000 infantry, 10,000 cavalry, and 5,000 craftsmen and 5,000 farmers from Shanhaiguan and the forbidden army to the front line.

This is the first time since the founding of Emperor Zhao Kuangyin of the Song Dynasty that the Zhao clan of the Great Song Dynasty has given so many troops to the front-line generals, if it weren't for the fact that Dajin scared the royal family, it wouldn't be like this, not to mention that the attack is still more powerful than Dajin Mongolia, which is a terrible existence that will defeat the Dajin Kingdom one after another.

The Mongol side integrated the army, and wanted to attack the Song Dynasty in the south, and the battle in front of Xiangyang City was imminent, and it was also rumored, the atmosphere in the city was solemn, the people closed their doors, and teams of elite soldiers patrolled back and forth, looking like they were facing a great enemy.

At night, in the military machine pavilion of Xiangyang City, Ye Lingfeng sat on the couch opposite Meng Zongzheng, Huang Yaoshi and others, and even Hong Qigong and others had now arrived in Xiangyang City to discuss military affairs with them.

Meng Zongzheng said with a solemn face: "Unified army, the situation is not optimistic, according to the report of the spies on the front line, the Mongols are menacing, I am afraid that there are no less than 400,000 people!" Dajin caters to the Mongols, and the army sent is probably as many as 100,000 people, although my Xiangyang City is prepared, the soldiers are strong and strong, but in the end there are few soldiers, counting the soldiers allocated by the imperial court, the entire Xiangyang City can only get together 200,000 people at most! ”

Ye Lingfeng smiled and said: "The matter of defending the city is to go against the sky, Sun Wu and Wu Zixu's battle of Baiju has a difference of 170,000 troops, thousands of miles to break Chu, five battles into Ying, Wu Qi of the battle of Yin and Jin Dynasty broke the Qin army with a gap of 450,000 troops, how many heroes have been fighting to the death in our situation throughout the ages." ”

"The beggar gang Hong Lao gang leader has organized the gang to help, with the help of the beggar gang, we have many good generals, when the battle is decided first, ambition is the first, if you want to not be afraid of the Mongolian iron cavalry, we must put our armaments in order, the so-called capture the thief first capture the king, the three armies can not be without a handsome, and when the Mongols lead the army to arrive, I will try to attack and kill its commander Temujin."

"The best ending is that as soon as Temujin dies, the Mongolian army will inevitably be in chaos, and then take advantage of the situation to counterattack and cover up! Wherever the Mongols passed, they burned, killed, plundered, and even slaughtered cities, which were more brutal than the Jin people, and once the army was defeated and retreated, it would inevitably be full of smoke! And we became a tiger out of the cage, swept the north with a great victory, and took the opportunity to recapture the homeland, and the people welcomed each other with a pot pulp. ”

Although his strength is now comparable to the title of one of the five peerless Western madness, it is impossible for the Mongolian side to be without masters, but it is more than enough to imitate Yang Tai's chaotic army in the later stage of the Condor to kill Meng Ge! Although he has lived in Mongolia for a long time, he has no psychological burden, and the only thing he is worried about is to meet Guo Jing on the battlefield.

A month later, the military report that the Mongol army had gone south to the Central Plains had reached the outside of Xiangyang City, and in the afternoon of the next day, there was a cry outside the north gate of Xiangyang. Everyone looked at the city, and the darkness was overwhelming, and it was full of refugees from the Northland, bringing their families and mouths, helping the old and the young, and staggering over.

Seeing this, Xin Qiji sighed: "This is a common strategy used by the Mongols to break the city!" Threatened by the refugees, if the city gates were not opened, the people were slaughtered, and the defenders were greatly disturbed. If the city gate is opened, the Mongol vanguard army will then be killed, causing the people inside and outside the city to kill each other and take advantage of the situation to attack the city..."He has studied the methods of warfare between the Mongols and Dajin over the years, and he is naturally very familiar with these small tricks.

Meng Zongzheng's face was full of anger, and he smashed his fist on the battlements, and said angrily: "Damn Mongols! I actually used my Han people as prisoners, and I must give the Mongolian pioneers a little color! ”

Huang Rong on the side made a suggestion: "Grandpa Yue's military book once said, 'Urgency is strange, and the danger of the soldiers is deceitful', why don't we divide thousands of soldiers and horses, one team ambush behind the eastern mountain, and one team ambush on the western mountain, as soon as the cannon sounds, they will kill together, and the Mongols will be caught off guard!" Buy time for the people to enter the city! ”

"Rong'er said this, this is a clever plan, but this method requires two pairs of people to fight, who is willing to ask for help?" Huang Yaoshi nodded pertinently as a military advisor, and Huang Rong was also able to participate in these combat meetings because of his father, who was a military advisor in the Xiangyang garrison.

Meng Zongzheng's son Meng Heng stood aside and said, "I am willing to lead a team of men and horses to go, and I hope that the military division will agree." ”

Huang Yaoshi bowed his head slightly and asked, "Who else is willing to ask for help?" ”

Ye Lingfeng said: "General Meng has someone under him who can be named Shang Pincai, he has good martial arts, I think he also has the talent to lead troops, why don't you let him go to the west with a team of people, what do you think?" ”

Meng Zongzheng nodded, "The people must not be saved!" According to Miss Huang's plan, in order to make a foolish plan, you and I will each have 5,000 elite soldiers! If you don't come out, you will kill the Mongols by surprise, so that they don't dare to underestimate Xiangyang again! As for the Mongol army under the city, if you want to deal with it, this is the most difficult thing, not only to protect the people, but also to resist the Mongol army, you can only ask Huang senior or the unified army to personally lead the troops. ”
