These words shocked everyone, and Subotai and others looked stunned.

Although Wokuotai was angry in his heart, his mind was very clear. After hearing the report from his subordinates, he immediately made a judgment.

"The Jin army has 70,000 troops, divided into 30,000 troops, and built a wall in front of Hulao Pass in order to resist the Khan from sending troops to rescue Zhengzhou. The remaining 40,000 troops will definitely step up their attack on Zhengzhou." Wo Kuotai analyzed the gold.

Jun's intention, and then he gritted his teeth and said: "I don't need to think about it carefully to know that this must be Zhao Tai's plan!"

Subotai was a little frightened, "Great Khan, then Zhao Tai gathered superior forces and defeated our Eastern Route Army in Xuzhou. Now the Jin soldiers blocked Hulao Pass, and Zhao Tai and the others formed superior forces near Zhengzhou again. Guo Dehai

It’s dangerous!”

There were many Mongolian nobles in the tent, originally thinking that the Jin army was coming to rescue Luoyang.

The main Mongolian forces were under Luoyang City, so they were naturally not afraid of the Jin army coming for reinforcements, and even thought that the Jin army's arrival would mean death.

But now the Jin army's goal is not to rescue Luoyang, but to eat their 20,000 people in Zhengzhou, and everyone is a little uneasy in their hearts.

After all, the Jin Army killed 50,000 troops on the Eastern Front, so it is not impossible to kill 20,000 people in Zhengzhou.

After listening to Subotai's words, Ogedai looked at the many Mongolian nobles and saw that everyone looked a little worried, and he felt faintly uneasy in his heart.

This Zhao Tai had eaten up the 50,000 troops on the eastern front, and wanted to devour the 20,000 troops in Zhengzhou. If he succeeded, he would have lost 70,000 troops this time.

Although the Mongol Empire was powerful and had many soldiers and horses, the loss of so many soldiers would be too much for a while, resulting in the inability to move south to invade the Song Dynasty in a short period of time.

When the Mongolian Empire faced Zhao Tai, it had made three consecutive mistakes.

The first time was when he fell into a trap and retreated, missing the opportunity to destroy the gold.

During Kuoduan's second expedition to the Song Dynasty and the decisive battle with the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhao Tai and Wuxian's troops arrived, causing the Mongolian army in the southern expedition to suffer a devastating blow.

The third time was when Zhao Tai annihilated the Mongolian Eastern Route Army in Xuzhou and killed his son Kuo Duan.

There are only three things that can be done. If Zhao Tai is allowed to capture Zhengzhou and wipe out 20,000 Mongolian defenders, it will be really unreasonable.

Thinking of this, Wokuotai became serious and said in a deep voice: "Subotai, I will give you 20,000 horses. You immediately go to Hulao Pass, defeat the Jin soldiers outside the pass for me, and then reinforce Zhengzhou."

Although Guo Dehai had 20,000 people hiding in the fortified city, Wokuotai was shadowed by Zhao Tai. Just in case, he decided to send reinforcements.

Subotai heard the order and immediately saluted, "Don't worry, Khan, I'll set off immediately!"

After saying this, Subutai turned around and left his tent, gathering his army to go eastward.

Wokuotai glanced at the remaining people, and then shouted in a deep voice: "In order to avoid long nights and dreams, starting from tomorrow, all ministries will attack the city with all their strength and capture Luoyang as soon as possible. Do you understand?"

The Mongolian nobles in the tent stood up one after another and saluted him, "Yes!"

Wokuotai looked at Kublai Khan and said, "Kublai Khan, you will be the main attack tomorrow!"

Kublai Khan was stunned for a moment, then he quickly agreed, "Yes!"

~~~~~~

At dusk, at the top of Luoyang City.

After the Mongol army retreated, corpses were scattered everywhere in Luoyang City.

At this time, after the exhausted defenders repelled the Mongolian attack, they were paralyzed on the city one by one, lying among the corpses.

The only remaining defenders in Luoyang City were scattered all over the city. They were sitting or lying down. There was no joy in repelling the Mongolian army on their faces. Many soldiers were holding weapons and sitting against the city wall with dull eyes and miserable expressions.

At this time, the officer came over, lightly kicked the soldiers, and said in a deep voice, "Brothers, get up and clean up the battlefield."

The defenders at the top of the city who had regained their strength heard the officer's greeting, then stood up with their tired bodies and began to clean up the corpses on the city.

They carried the bodies of their brothers down the city, and the bodies of the Mongolian soldiers were thrown directly under the city. The wounded soldiers were helped down to the city by the people in the city and sent to the hospital for rescue.

At the top of Luoyang City, Monk Chen was sitting on the steps in front of the city tower with his armor damaged, his helmet missing, his hair disheveled and his lips chapped, wiping a sword with multiple gaps in his hand.

Monk Chen lowered his head, his messy hair covering half of his face, and his expression could not be seen clearly.

Around him, there were many armored elite soldiers sitting. Their armors were also damaged and their bodies were wounded, and they looked a little desperate.

At this time, the sun was setting in the west, half of its face was sinking, and the afterglow shone on the top of Luoyang City. The soldiers cleaning up the battlefield were busy silently in the afterglow, and no one was willing to speak.

After wiping his sword, Monk Chen looked at the sun that was about to set with a somewhat absent-minded gaze. He had a feeling that it was not only the sun that was setting, but also the Great Golden Empire.

This made Monk Chen feel sad in his heart, but at this moment, the soldiers who were cleaning up the corpses at the top of the city and throwing the corpses of the Mongolian soldiers down suddenly felt a commotion.

"Commander!" A general with broken armor and his arm hanging with a bandage hurriedly came to Monk Chen, "There is movement from the Mongolian army outside the city."

Upon hearing this, Monk Chen supported his body with his saber, looking resolute, "Do the Mongols want to fight at night? I will accompany you until the end."

The general shook his head quickly and said, "Commander, there is a large group of Mongolian cavalry suddenly heading east."

Monk Chen was stunned for a moment, then walked to the city wall in a few steps and looked out of the city. He happened to see a large group of Mongolian cavalry rushing out of the camp and galloping away to the east.

"Commander!" The general was a little excited, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes. "Is the imperial court sending reinforcements to rescue us?"

A large group of Mongolian cavalry moved eastward, which must be the Jin army coming from the east.

There was a glimmer of hope on the desperate faces of the Jin army guarding the city, but Monk Chen was not happy at all.

He held the city wall with one hand and watched the Mongolian cavalry heading east with melancholy and deep eyes, but he was very desperate in his heart and with tears in his eyes, "Your Majesty, the siege of Luoyang is unbreakable, why bother letting the soldiers come to die!"

In Monk Chen's view, the main force of the Mongolian army gathered under Luoyang City, and with the strength of the Jin army, it was simply unable to relieve Luoyang.

The Jin soldiers abandoned their fortified city and came to rescue Luoyang, but their deaths were in vain.

Monk Chen had no hope for reinforcements, but when he saw the defenders standing beside the city wall with some excitement, he watched the Mongolian troops heading east talking about each other. He did not express his true thoughts, but said in a deep voice:

"It is true that the imperial court has sent reinforcements. Everyone, hurry up, clean up the city and resist the Mongolian attack. Luoyang can still be saved."

After saying that, Monk Chen left the city wall and entered the tower.

Soon night fell, and Monk Chen personally led the troops to patrol. When they arrived at the West City, a soldier came over with joy and reported: "Marshal Qi, a man has just arrived from the city. He is said to be an envoy from Kaifeng. He has just been pulled up to the city by us."
