"Haha! Good job, Broken!" Yang Guo exclaimed loudly at the head of the city. He had long seen that Liu Quan was not pleasing to the eye, if he didn't have a chance, he was afraid that he would have killed this person a long time ago, and now Guo Poyu shot him down with an arrow, this person is now old, even if he doesn't die, he is afraid that he will not have a few years to live, which can be described as a great achievement.

Next to him, Guo Poyu saw the figure of Liu Quan's group leaving, and put down his bow and arrow with some regret. If Liu Cheng had fallen in front of Xiangyang City five years ago, someone in the city would have rushed out, and even if Liu Cheng had not been shot, he would definitely not have been able to escape. However, now, although Xiangyang City can barely hold on, it is no longer able to attack, and can only watch Liu Cheng being taken away by his own soldiers.

Over there, Lu Wenhuan was also taken aback when he saw Liu Cheng fall off the horse. His original intention was to scare Liu Quan, and he hadn't thought about killing him, but now that he was shot off his horse by Guo Poyu, he didn't know why, but he was a little worried, and thought: "If this Liu Cheng died, the Mongols shouldn't be furious, right? He is a Han general, so he shouldn't provoke the anger of the Mongols." However, thinking that Liu Cheng was the deputy commander and commander of the naval division of the Mongolian expedition to the south, he was a little uncertain in his heart, and he didn't know if the Mongols would be angry about it.

With something in his heart, Lu Wenhuan handed over all the things to Guo Jing for arrangement, and he returned to the mansion with his confidants. When Huang Rong and Zhu Ziliu saw it, they all shook their heads secretly, knowing that this nominal supreme commander of Xiangyang City was afraid that he had already moved his mind to surrender. Zhu Ziliu said: "Guo Daxia, without further ado, the Mongols suffered a lot of losses in the siege today, and they will take the opportunity to break through in the early morning of tomorrow." This Xiangyang City, let's hand it over to Lu Dashuai!"

Guo Jing was silent when he heard this. just waved his hand and asked Zhu Ziliu to go and arrange it. Alone, he patrolled around the city wall of Xiangyang. It seems that he wants to remember the walls that he has been guarding for decades.

Seeing this, Zhu Ziliu sighed, knowing that Guo Jing was still a little reluctant to Xiangyang. He has also been here for decades, and he can never forget Xiangyang in his heart, but thinking of his son, apprentices, and a group of friends who stayed in Xiangyang, he had to cheer up and work hard to arrange this matter.

"Whew!" In the evening, a sculpture roared in the sky. Another package fell from above. But it was Zhang Junbao who escorted Bai Diao, and finally brought the pill, as well as Fang Zhixing and Huang Yaoshi's arrangements for breaking through, so that everyone in Xiangyang was ready to break through in the near future. Yang Guo, Guo Poyu and others were overjoyed when they saw it, and they did it one by one. The people in the city who were not seriously injured also used pills and prepared to take them away with them in the coming day.

And they prepared in the city. The Mongols outside the city were not idle. During the night, a soldier on night duty suddenly reported that the Mongols had lit torches outside the city, as if they were going to attack the city overnight. Everyone was taken aback and hurriedly got up to check.

When they arrived at the city wall, Guo Jing, Huang Rong and others looked out. I saw that in the higher terrain southeast of Xiangyang City, the Mongols drove the Han soldiers. The stones are constantly being carried and piled up next to the wooden shelves. I don't know what the purpose is.

"That wooden frame should be the return cannon that Brother Fang said. It seems that the Mongols will not take Xiangyang, they really will not give up, and we want to break through tonight, but I am afraid that it will be hanging!" Zhu Ziliu said. Everyone originally wanted to break through tonight when the Mongols were unprepared, but now the outside of Xiangyang City is lit up by the Mongols with torches, and there are many people holding their bows and guarding the side, the possibility of a successful breakthrough can be said to be very small, how can they take risks here.

Looking at the Mongols who were waiting under the city, Guo Jing nodded slightly and said: "The Mongols are on guard, even if they succeed in breaking through tonight, I am afraid that the loss will be not small, and it seems that we can only stay for the next day." Break the captives, signal to cancel tonight's operation. "In the evening, in addition to the elixir and information, there are also a few arrows sent by the white eagle to send signals and point out the direction at night.

Hearing this, Guo Poyu immediately found a signal to cancel the operation and sent it somewhere in Xiangyang City. Not long after, an arrow was also raised outside the city, exactly the same as the one sent by Guo Poyu, obviously with the same meaning. Seeing this, Guo Poyu said: "Master also agreed to cancel tonight's breakout, let us find an opportunity to arrange in the city, and he will be on standby at any time." ”

Under the city, the Mongols saw the signals sent by the two sides, and they were a little confused. Seeing the people at the head of the city, they speculated that they might want to destroy the return cannon that was being built, so they couldn't help but report back to the camp and took out some men and horses to guard. Seeing this, Guo Jing's original little thought of destroying the return cannon by night was completely hidden in his heart, and he discussed with everyone how to defend the city during the day. The return cannon is powerful, and the hundreds of catties of boulders emitted can break through the city wall of Xiangyang, so they can't be careless.

The return cannon was far away, and in addition to a few bed crossbows that were still intact in Xiangyang City, even the Divine Arm Bow could not be shot. After a night of discussion, they only moved the bed crossbows from other places to the southeast, and built more arrows overnight to deal with the return cannon that fired boulders.

The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, another trumpet sounded outside the city of Xiangyang, but there were no Mongols attacking the city. After several times of this, until the sky was bright, no one came forward, but only gathered in the southeast direction. Seeing this, everyone in Xiangyang City knew that the Mongols were going to attack the city with Hui artillery, and they couldn't help but gather in the southeast of the city wall.

"It's so rude for the Tartars to be so arrogant. Do they firmly believe that this cannon will definitely be able to break through the city wall of Xiangyang?hmph!" Seeing the scene outside the city, Elder Wu of the Beggar Gang snorted coldly and said. Although he had heard about the bombardment of Fancheng by Huihui, he did not believe that this trebuchet could really break through the city wall of Xiangyang, which had been repaired for decades, and it was extremely unacceptable to the Mongols. When it comes to the strength of the city, Xiangyang City is the best in the world, even if it is also a strong city, Fancheng is far from being compared.

"You can't break the city wall, but you can break people's hearts!" Yang Guoyu said. He was also extremely confident in the walls of Xiangyang, but for some people in the city, he was not so relieved. Even if the Mongols can't break the city wall for a while, as long as they show the strength to blast the city wall, they are afraid that Lu Wenhuan and others will be impatient to surrender.

Hearing this, everyone thought of yesterday's arrow shooting Liu Quan, and they were a little silent. Not only did Yang Guo have no confidence in Lu Wenhuan, but every Jianghu person in Xiangyang City almost had no confidence in him at this time, if it weren't for this, the breakthrough would not have been deliberately hidden from this person. Even Guo Jing is the same in his heart. (To be continued......)
