Chapter 131: The Precarious Xiangyang

It was dawn, and Xiahou came out of the palace in no hurry to leave Lin’an.

Lin’an is now the most prosperous place in the Southern Song Dynasty. Since it is here, I am sorry if I don’t have a good stroll around.

On the street, people come and go, and there are many kinds of goods in the square city.

While strolling happily, Xiahou was also thinking about it.

Song Lizong would establish the second factory, Jinyiwei, and learn the system of the Ming Dynasty. All these will probably arouse Yang Guo’s suspicion.

After all, Yang Guo is a member of the Zhutian chat group.

Things can be big or small, depending on how Xiahou fooled.

“It is said that because Yang Guo joined the chat group of the heavens, the historical axis of the god carving plane was in a disorder, and the Ming Dynasty system and Jinyiwei were ahead of schedule by more than a hundred years.”

With consideration, Xiahou boarded the chat group of the heavens.



Before flicking, Xiahou first searched for friends.

At present, the Zhutian chat group is still lv1, and it can only be searched once a day, and after lv2, it can be searched twice a day.

As the Zhutian chat group is being upgraded, although friends can be searched, the chances are severely reduced.

Again, nothing was found.

In a blink of an eye, it has been half a month since Xiahou came to Lin’an.

In the past half month, Song Lizong seemed to have changed a person and began to work hard.

The Second East and West Factory and Jin Yiwei were the minions of Song Lizong, and Wen Tianxiang and other loyal and capable ministers were reused.

The army, military pay, and vigorously support Xiangyang.

The reform has also begun.

There is great resistance to the reform, many people oppose it, more people wait and see, and very few people support it.

There are two factories and Jin Yiwei as minions, which greatly reduces the pressure of Song Lizong’s reform.

Today, there are 800 li to Lin’an urgently, but Meng Ge personally led an army of 400,000 to go south.

Nowadays, Mongolia does not have a great sweat. Many Mongolian princes are competing for the position of a great sweat. The most promising is Meng Ge, and Kublai Khan is Meng Ge’s most powerful supporter.

Kublai Khan led his troops to the south, but he was defeated and lost. This not only caused his own position in Mongolia to be greatly reduced, but also hurt Brother Meng.

King Golden Wheel is Mongolia’s protector of the country, Huo is a little prince, Nimoxing and Yin Kexi are masters, and there are some centurions and thousands of commanders. Such losses are not trivial.

Under various considerations, Ge Meng personally led an army of 400,000 to go south, while Kublai, Xiaoxiangzi and Ma Guangzuo accompanied them.

In the past, the Mongolian army went southward every other year or several years, but this time it was an exception.

The major events of the country are worship and war. War is not a trifling matter, but the Mongols have always liked to do it out of common sense.

Knowing that Meng Ge led a 400,000 army to the south, Xiahou was not too surprised, this was what he expected.

“Brother Meng, and Kublai Khan, the two of them died, and the 400,000 army was defeated again, the Southern Song Dynasty should have decades of peace.” Xiahou said in his heart.

In the city lord’s mansion in Xiangyang, Lu Wende is worried. He is discussing with Guo Jing, Huang Rong, Lu Youjiao and others.

“The Mongols are aggressive this time, and Xiangyang is in danger!” Lu Wende sighed deeply.

Guo Jing and Huang Rong were also sad.

Of the 400,000 troops led by Meng Ge, 150,000 are Mongols, 250,000 are Han and Western Regions.

The Mongolian cavalry swept across the Eurasian continent, almost invincible. This time 150,000 troops were dispatched, plus 250,000 troops, Xiangyang was in jeopardy.

Although Song Lizong had supported Xiangyang’s troops and military pay, Guo Jing was not even sure if he wanted to resist Meng’s 400,000 army.

“Ge Meng is Kublai’s elder brother and the strongest contender for the Khan position, and the 400,000 army should be the limit he can mobilize. He made a big determination this time.” Huang Rong said.

“It must be Kublai Khan who defeated the battle and affected Brother Meng, so he was anxious to move his troops to the south.” Lu You said in a deep voice.

“It should be like this, but how do you defend the enemy? Guo Daxia, what do you think?” Lu Wende asked Guo Jing.

Guo Jing looked at Huang Rong.

“The soldiers came to block, the water came and the earth covered, defending Xiangyang, looking for opportunities to cut off the logistics of the Mongolian army, in addition, the Mongols are not single-minded.

Although Huang Rong has the title of female Zhuge, she has no good solutions now.

“Everything depends on Guo Daxia and Huang Nvxia. The officer is willing to obey them.” Lu Wende said seriously.

Although the defender of Xiangyang is Lu Wende, Lu Wende knows himself that Xiangyang has not fallen to this day. Thanks to Guo Jing and Huang Rong, in order to defend Xiangyang, he can listen to Guo Jing and Huang Rong.

After defending Xiangyang, Lv Wende will have high officials and rich salaries and prosperity. If Xiangyang falls, he will surrender to the Mongols, and life will not be easy.

The 400,000 army, the cavalry surpassed 200,000, and there were all kinds of siege equipment, and carts of rations. From a distance, they couldn’t see their heads at a glance. They were average after another, and the momentum was too great.

When 400,000 people shouted in unison, it was enough to shake the sky and the earth, I was afraid that even the clouds in the sky would be shaken away.

These 400,000 people were not recruits. They had seen blood and killed people one by one, and many of them crawled out of the sea of ​​blood in the corpse mountain. Therefore, the murderous spirit was not small.

As the murderous intent of 400,000 people gathered together, the soldiers guarding Xiangyang weakened their hands and feet.

“Fangyang can’t hold it this time.”

“This time the Mongolian army has not only greatly surpassed the previous ones, but the combat effectiveness of the soldiers is also stronger.”

“We have Guo Daxia, as long as Guo Daxia is there, Xiangyang can hold it.”

“Yes, Guo Daxia is here, and Xiangyang is here.”

“Guo Daxia is the reincarnation of Grandpa Yue.”

“Those who violate my Han nationality will be punished even if they are far away!”

400,000 troops came under the city of Xiangyang, and the war was on the verge of breaking out.

Kublai stared steadily at Xiangyang. As a general, victory or defeat was a matter of military affairs, but he failed miserably outside the city of Xiangyang not long ago.

“This time, Xiangyang can definitely be taken, and as long as Xiangyang is taken, the Southern Song Dynasty will lose the barrier.” Kublai thought.

Behind Kublai Khan, stood several Practitioners, including Xiao Xiangzi and Ma Guangzuo.

Brother Meng was beside Kublai, and he was also staring at Xiangyang.

Meng’s appearance is somewhat similar to Kublai, but his physique is more burly, and his eyes are sharp, like an eagle on the grassland.

“If you take down Xiangyang and destroy the Southern Song Dynasty, your sweat will not be a problem.” Meng Ge thought to himself.

“Brother Wang, I heard that the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty was offering sacrifices to the heavens in Lin’an, asking gods for protection.” Kublai said to Meng Ge with a smile.

“It’s ridiculous, at this time I actually pin my hopes on the gods.” Meng Ge sneered.

“The faint king is incompetent, the traitorous official is in charge, and the Southern Song qi is exhausted.” Kublai sneered.

“Siege!” Meng Ge gave an order.

The horn of war sounded, and the tens of thousands of pioneers of the Mongolian army began to attack the city.

This is just a tentative siege.

The tens of thousands of people who attacked the city were all Han people, and the life and death of these people was not taken care of by Meng Ge.
