"You all have come a long way, and Guo has failed to take care of you. I hope you will understand!"
Guo Jingli's lips moved slightly on the stage, and his deep voice was heard in all directions, as if someone was whispering in his ears, neither light nor heavy, neither slow nor urgent, showing his calmness. When everyone saw this, they stared with bated breath and stopped whispering.
The venue fell silent immediately, and when he finished speaking, several responses came from the crowd.
"You're welcome, Sir Guo! The Tatars have been invading the south frequently. We were born and raised here, how can we stand by and watch!"
"What Master Lu said is that although we are just common people, we still know how to finish the eggs when the nest is overthrown!"
…………
"Yes, Sir Guo, you're welcome. We all came here voluntarily. This time it's not for anything else but a few Tatars!"
…………
Guo Jing paused for a moment with a smile on his face, then continued to speak after everyone's voices died down.
"Guo Jing is very grateful to all of you for coming from afar. You must already know the purpose of this conference. Since the fall of the Jin Kingdom, the Tatars have been marching south frequently, with their troops directed towards Lin'an. During this period, you have committed countless evil deeds.
"The Tartars are deceiving me and there is no one in the court. Let me ask you, can you watch the Tartars destroy my city, destroy my country, trample my fertile fields, and slaughter my people?"
Guo Jing's words were so powerful that everyone present could not help but respond with enthusiasm.
"cannot!"
…………
"cannot!"
…………
"cannot!"
…………
Countless responses converged into a surging sound that resounded throughout the Dongting Lake. Even the martial arts practitioners who were far away from the shore who could not enter the venue heard the roaring sound.
"what happened?"
"Oh, I'm so worried. What happened?"
"What a pity, what a pity. I wish I couldn't watch the ceremony live!"
"Don't worry, everyone, don't worry, by the time the conference is over, what happened at the conference will definitely spread to all directions!"
Li Jie could not help but be affected by this strong emotion while standing in the audience. He thought that these words were probably written by Huang Rong. It is absolutely okay for you to let Guo Jing lead the troops in the war and die in service to the country, but let him say
I'm afraid it's a little difficult to say something like this to arouse people's hearts.
Guo Jing looked around with burning eyes. There were so many people in the audience responding to his request, which made him feel very gratified.
"good!"
This word "good" sounded like thunder, instantly silencing the shouts in the audience.
"Today I, Guo Jing, swear an oath here! To defend the Song Dynasty! What a waste of my life! When the people are alive and the country is alive! The country will perish and people will perish!"
…………
"Today, I, Ma Ruohua, swear an oath to defend the Song Dynasty! What a waste of my life! When people are here, the country is here! The country will perish and people will perish!"
…………
"Today, I, Xi Feng, swear an oath here! To defend the Song Dynasty! What a waste of my life! When the people are alive and the country is alive! The country will perish and people will perish!"
…………
Every time Guo Jing recited a sentence, the people in the audience would follow it. This torrent of countless voices once again spread to the Dongting Lake. People in the periphery were excited when they heard it, and they spontaneously started to recite it. For a time, the Dongting Lake was 800 miles away.
All in this life, the voices of nearly ten thousand people gathered together, and their momentum was like a rainbow, permeating the sky!
The next process of the conference was similar to that of a general martial arts conference. Guo Jing was unanimously elected as the leader of the alliance, and then he began to group everyone according to their martial arts characteristics.
Guo Jing is well versed in the art of war. He knows that martial arts people are idle. It's okay if you let them fight alone. If you really let them participate in large-scale army battles, if they don't divide the echelons in advance, they will most likely be killed when facing the Mongolian cavalry.
Defeated with one blow.
Even though this group of people are all practitioners, on a battlefield with tens of thousands of people, the power of an individual is too small. The power of everyone must be combined in order to face the Mongolian army head-on.
Although the Mongolian side did not dare to send anyone to disrupt the Junshan Conference, everything that happened at the conference was spread to the other side of the Yangtze River the next day. Zhang Rou's staff Xu Meng was shocked when he heard the news, and hurriedly felt that Zhang Rou was inside the military tent.
Gentle reporting.
"General, the latest news is coming from the front. The Golden Sword Prince Consort has gathered people at Dongting Lake to hold a martial arts conference, summoning all the heroes to jointly fight against our army!"
Zhang Rou, who was studying the map, raised her eyebrows when she heard this and sneered at the news.
"What year does the Golden Sword Prince Consort belong to? Han Qing, be careful next time and remember that trouble comes from the mouth!"
Xu Meng smiled awkwardly: "Yes, general, it's Guo Jing!"
"Okay, so what exactly are the rules and regulations of this conference?"
Xu Meng lowered his head and looked at the information in his hand: "According to the spies' report, there are no less than a thousand people participating in this conference, and no less than ten thousand people have participated in this conference. It should not be underestimated. General, should we temporarily stop the operation and wait for Naima's true appearance?"
Reply from the Queen (Tregona)?”
Zhang Rou waved his hand. He had been fighting in the north and south for many years, and he had never seen any battles. It was not like he had never fought against Jianghu people when he attacked the Song Dynasty before. When it came to fighting alone, he thought he was no match for these people, but when it came to group fighting,
It can be described in four words.
Vulnerable!
"No, it's just a few martial arts people. It won't make a big difference. If they come here, they will never come back!"
"However, Han Qing, although this group of people are not good at fighting, they are quite capable of causing trouble. You must be more careful when escorting grain and grass. You must send more manpower!"
………………
Five days later, on the outskirts of Wuhe City, Zhang Rou led a 20,000-strong Mongolian army to cross the Huaihe River at night. When the Huai'an army learned of this situation, they immediately felt like they were facing a formidable enemy. They gathered all their troops inside Wuhe City and did not dare to confront the Mongols head-on.
, intending to take advantage of the city's defense to hold on to the city.
Zhang Rou and a group of soldiers were on an unknown hill looking at Wuhe City not far away. Xu Meng said to Zhang Rou beside him with a spring breeze on his face.
"General, you really have a clever plan. This group of martial arts people are really a bunch of clowns. They only dare to sneakily attack the grain escort team in the rear. Once the army arrives, they will all run away!"
Hearing this, Zhang Rou raised a smile on her lips and said proudly: "Haha, the Song people are as timid as mice, how dare they fight against my army, tonight you will follow me to capture the small town of Wuhe, and let the Song people know how powerful I am.
!”
The soldiers and horses were not moved, and the grain and grass went first. Zhang Rou was worried before that this group of so-called righteous men would try their best to attack the grain road. He also specially left five thousand troops to escort the grain and grass. Unexpectedly, this group of people was so loud that the thunder was loud and the rain was light.
It didn't cause much damage.
'Sure enough, this is the Song Dynasty person I know!'
Invading the Song Dynasty has always been regarded as a "fertile job" in Mongolia. Every time you go south, you will have income. The Song Dynasty is really too rich. Money is like leeks. After cutting, another crop will grow. You can't take it.
It's inexhaustible, Zhang Rou couldn't help but feel excited when she thought about the wealth she was about to get.
When the army finished crossing the river, Zhang Rou ordered everyone to dismount and wrap the horses' hooves with cotton cloth. He prepared to launch a surprise attack to capture Wuhe City in one go. When the preparations were completed, Zhang Rou waved his hand.
"My sons! Follow me and take this city in one hour!"
The army led by Zhang Rou traveled unimpeded, and just when they were about to arrive at Wuhe City, suddenly, there was a loud bang and loud noises!
