EbookFREE.me, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the rise of the empire of the heavens and worlds!
In the last years of the Southern Song Dynasty, Jia Sidao, a traitorous official, was in power, and he was the main line of disaster for the court and ruined Zhongliang.
Coupled with the rise of northern Mongolia like a comet, the biting war knife may fall from the top of the head at any time, and the country's internal and external troubles, a little spark can form a spark.
At this time, the Southern Song war Meng Gongai surrendered to Mongolia with Liu Zheng and his elite navy, and offered a strategy to destroy the Song.
Liu Zheng proposed to take Xiangyang first, sweep Jinghuai, completely interrupt the economic and population support of the Southern Song Dynasty, and give the final destructive blow to the Southern Song Dynasty regime, which was finally adopted by the Mongolian high-level.
A month later, the Mongolian prince Kublai Khan personally led a 100,000 Mongolian army to the south from the grassland, accompanied by masters of Tantric Buddhism, and the soldiers guided the Fangzhong town of Xiangyang.
With this information, countless heroes and gang members of the Central Plains Wulin have spontaneously traveled to Xiangyang for reinforcements.
Clouds of war are spreading, and the war is about to start!
……………
"Kill!!"
The important town of the Southern Song Dynasty, under the city of Xiangyang, was already shouting and killing.
Black clouds are pressing against the city and want to destroy it, and the Mongolian army phalanx is pressing towards Xiangyang City in an orderly manner.
In the vast Mongolian army, there are also countless elongated ladders, arrow towers, and rushing carts, which advance together with the advance of the army.
And the distribution of various ordnance is extremely orderly, not like an army coming out of the grassland.
In the impression of ordinary people, the main combat force of the Mongolian army is the indomitable iron cavalry. There are few infantrymen and they are not proficient in controlling these Central Plains equipment.
In fact, it is true, but that is already in the past.
Since Mongolia destroyed the Golden State and took the north, the Mongolian army, which has tasted the sweetness, has begun to install a large number of advanced equipment that originally belonged to the Central Plains civilization.
In addition, they will look for surrendered Song generals to help Mongolia train a new army. The combat effectiveness of the Mongolian army has risen in a straight line, and the composition of the army has begun to conform to the Central Plains dynasty.
And every time the Mongolian army captured a city, it would search for various craftsmen in it to develop and build equipment.
After more than ten years of development, Mongolia's equipment level has developed to the point where it is no less than that of the Southern Song Dynasty.
In the later period, the Mongolian army completely got rid of the grassland combat method.
It has become a genuine technical force, and its threat to the Central Plains Dynasty has greatly increased.
In the past, the Mongolian army was not good at attacking cities, and the Central Plains dynasty could still survive by relying on the tall and strong walls.
But Feng Shui turns, and the Central Plains Dynasty is in danger this time.
The Great Song Dynasty, the most prosperous dynasty in Chinese history.
At this time, under the fangs of the Tianjiao-level figure Kublai Khan had become precarious, reaching the most dangerous moment.
Thousands of Mongolian troops attacked the city, and Xiangyang defenders also launched their defenses.
The two armies fired at each other with crossbows. The Mongolian army and the Xiangyang garrison were shot over from time to time, and over a thousand casualties were caused before they came into direct contact.
When the Mongolian army braved the arrow rain of the Xiangyang defenders to advance under the city wall, they also began to set up a ladder to attack the city.
The Xiangyang defenders continued to counterattack, obstructing the offensive of the Mongolian army in various forms.
The situation is in a see-saw state, and neither side can absolutely do anything to the other side.
The war in this state is definitely the most tragic, and the screams and wailing sounds are everywhere on the battlefield.
The Central Plains martial arts people also assisted the defenders of Xiangyang to defend the city, constantly using various means to kill the Mongolian soldiers who were climbing with the help of the ladder.
Generally speaking, although the Mongol army looks fierce offensive, the defense state of the Xiangyang defenders still exists.
Although the casualties were heavy, it was still difficult for the Mongolian army to open the situation, even if it was the Mongolian elite under the leadership of Kublai himself.
"Brothers, for the hundreds of thousands of people in Xiangyang City, for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, we must block Kublai Khan's offensive, and we must not allow the Mongolian army to break through Xiangyang City."
Above the city wall, a burly man in blood-stained clothes yelled after shooting a Mongolian soldier from climbing with a bow and arrow.
And this man's words also greatly encouraged the morale of the defenders, and the battlefield was tilted towards the defenders, no matter how fierce the Mongolian army attacked, they could not attack.
This person is now the defender of Xiangyang, Guo Jing who speaks out the great chivalrous man, speaks out the deafening words for the country and the people, and truly understands the true meaning of the chivalrous man.
"Okay, National Teacher, who is this person?"
"To be so brave, not to lose to my top Mongolian warrior."
On the plain a few miles away from Xiangyang City, on the general platform of the Mongolian main army, a handsome man wearing a felt hat said to a man dressed as a tantric monk beside him.
This young man was the Mongolian prince Kublai.
The tantric monk dresses up as the leader of the tantric sect, and he is rampant in the world with the power of a dragon elephant.
"Back to the prince, this person is Guo Jing. He was trusted by Da Khan at the beginning, and Da Khan even wanted to reuse Guo Jing."
"It's a pity that Guo Jing missed the Central Plains, and later left Mongolia. He didn't expect to guard Xiangyang for the Southern Song Dynasty, which was unexpected."
Seeing Kublai’s questioning, King Golden Wheel also told what he knew.
"Oh, I didn't expect it to be him, Guo Jing who captured the title of Mongolia's first warrior as a Han."
"Since he is guarding Xiangyang, I must encounter many obstacles in the advancement of Mongolia."
Growing up in the grassland, he was also a Mongolian royal family. Kublai Khan naturally knew some things circulating on the grassland.
Guo Jing, this is even his grandfather, the Mongolian Tianjiao Temuzhen, must appreciate the existence of Jia, and even list the failure to subdue Guo Jing as a major regret in his life.
Knowing that such a character was guarding the city of Xiangyang, Kublai also let go of his thoughts on a quick fight.
"The Xiangyang defenders have been stationed in the Xiangyang area for more than ten years. They have experienced warfare. Although they are small in number, they are all elite."
"In addition, there are thousands of Central Plains martial arts who are helping, it seems that Xiangyang will not be able to conquer in the short term."
"Order the siege troops to withdraw one after another, and then attack after discussing the attack plan."
Kublai Khan is worthy of being the second only to the generation of Tianjiao Temuzhen in Mongolia.
Not only did he keenly analyze the dynamics of the war, but he also ordered the withdrawal of troops immediately, with great courage.
The military order gradually spread to the front line, and the tens of thousands of Mongolian soldiers who were violently attacking Xiangyang City also stopped the siege and began to cover each other and retreat.
It has to be said that the combat power of the Mongolian army during the period of Temujin and Kublai Khan was definitely at the peak of history.
Not only did he attack bravely, but even retreat was able to behave in a proper manner, successfully leaving the battlefield with minimal casualties.
"Oh, the Mongolian army was repelled by us."
"Haha, we won, we won."
"Is this the rumored invincible Mongolian prince Kublai Khan?"
"It's just that!"
Looking at the Mongolian army gradually retreating, countless Song Army generals and Central Plains Wulin heroes breathed a sigh of relief and were extremely happy.
I am proud to have repelled this rumored invincible Mongolian prince.
However, only Guo Jing was dignified at this moment.
He grew up in Mongolia and witnessed the rise of Mongolia in Genghis Khan Temuzhen to lead the next step. He naturally knew the strength of the Mongolian army.
In the entire Song Dynasty, there may be no one who knows the fighting power of the Mongolian army better than him.
It is no exaggeration to say that if the city of Xiangyang did not have such a tall and solid wall as a backing, the tens of thousands of defenders of oneself would not be enough for the two Mongol cavalry to attack.
And for Kublai, the Mongolian prince, Guo Jing has never let go of his vigilance, and his attention even far exceeds that of any opponent he has fought against in the past.
Nothing else, just because he is Temujin's grandson.
Guo Jing knows that the Mongolian army is now retreating, but the next round of offensive will definitely be more fierce and fierce.
The rain is coming!
