As early as when Dongzhang was killing everyone, a thundering cry had already sounded in Xiangyang City. The city guards were all excited and stared at Dongzhang who single-handedly fought into the crowd, seeing that he slaughtered the Mongolian army like
It was as simple as slaughtering a dog or a chicken, and the morale of the soldiers defending the city was greatly inspired.
The masters of the Beggar Gang led by Guo Jing and the loyal men from all over the country also shouted in unison at the city. Those who recognized Dong Zhang were so excited that their throats were hoarse, as if they were also present.
generally.
Anyone who didn't know Dong Zhang would anxiously ask his friends around him, but no one had time to pay attention to him at this moment. They all stared at the man in gray clothes down the field without blinking.
A vanguard of a thousand people attacking the city called Dongzhang to kill nearly 700 people. How could this not be exciting?
Seeing that Dongzhang and his party were in danger of being surrounded, Guo Jing quickly jumped onto the top of the city with a thick rope in his hands, and shouted anxiously: "Brother Dongzhang! I will put down the reins for you! Come back quickly!!"
"
This voice was full of energy and unusually loud. Dongzhang, who was galloping on his horse at this time, naturally heard it. Even Zhou Botong and others who were running in front could hear it clearly.
"Dongzhang!! It's my brother!!" Zhou Botong, who had been guarding Lu Yao's two sisters all the way, turned his head and looked back excitedly, his eyes fixed on the figure standing on the top of the city.
Dongzhang also looked back slightly, and saw that Guo Jing had one end of the rope wrapped around his waist, and the other end had already been thrown down from the city wall, shaking his hands at them.
"What's going on?! Shall we go back?" Zhou Botong shouted to Dongzhang.
After only glancing at the city head, Dongzhang withdrew his gaze, looked straight ahead coldly and said: "I won't look back."
After speaking, he pierced the horse's butt with the black iron knife, causing the horse to run forward with all its strength in pain. Seeing this, Zhou Botong was disappointed, but he could only choose to follow Dong Zhang and run north.
At this time, the two thousand-man troops of the Mongolian army in the east were much closer and were hanging far behind Dong Zhang, while the group in the west was far away and did not pose a threat to Dong Zhang and his party.
Hearing the sound of breaking through the air behind him, Zhang Dong handed the horse rope to Xiao Longnu in his arms and said: "Xiao, come and hold the horse."
After saying that, he turned over and jumped on the horse. He raised his knife and stared at the Mongolian cavalry galloping behind him. He saw that the sky was filled with dense arrows, flying towards him.
Dong Zhang and Xiao Long Nu were at the back of the team at the moment. Lu Yao, Lu Qing, and Lao Naughty were in the front because they retreated first. This rain of arrows looked terrifying, but in fact, only five arrows could reach Dong Zhang.
One-third of the amount.
But even so, there are still hundreds of arrows, and ordinary people really can't stop them.
Dongzhang stood on the back of the horse and waved his hand to hold a sword. His eyes were fixed on the rain of arrows. When the arrows approached the horse, he held the sword in front of him, and then quickly swung the sword to create an invisible scene.
Qing's sword shadow, but saw countless sword lights covering the entire war horse.
As soon as the arrows flew, they were chopped down by the airtight knife network. After hearing the sound coming from behind, Xiao Longnu continued to hold the horse rope with both hands and asked, "Are you okay?"
"
"It's okay, I'm behind you, just mount your horse and go north." He knocked the arrows off the horse's back one by one, and Dongzhang squatted down and struck the ground with his right hand with his sword.
boom!!!!
A huge sound rang out, and the sand and gravel on the road were smashed back by the black iron knife. The swift stones knocked the seven or eight pursuers running behind them off their horses. Once they fell off their horses, they attacked the people behind them.
It also caused quite a bit of trouble.
The cavalry behind them were running too fast, and those in front suddenly fell off their horses. The people behind them would definitely hit the horses in front, and the formation was temporarily confused, causing their speed to pause.
But Dongzhang didn't just hit him once. After hitting the first blow, he followed up with a second and third blow, pulling the pursuers behind him further and further away.
Seeing Dongzhang and his entourage mount their horses and charge forward without hesitation, with no intention of returning to the city, Guo Jing, who was standing on the top of the city, could not conceal his disappointment. Seeing that they were being pursued by the Mongolian army again, Guo Jing ran to Lu Wende in a hurry
Beside him, he cupped his hands and said, "Sir! We can't just die without saving such loyal people!"
Lu Wende looked at the fierce and fierce Mongolian cavalry under the city. Seeing their mighty momentum, he was so frightened that he still dared to divide his troops to rescue them.
His body trembled slightly, and he just said flatteringly: "These warriors are all people with great abilities and abilities. I guess these Tatars pose no threat to them, so we don't need to worry."
After Guo Jing heard the dissatisfaction in his heart, he looked outside the city. At this time, Dong Zhang and his party had already run far away, with thousands of troops hanging behind them.
His subordinates are all righteous warriors with no martial arts skills. No one is equipped with a war horse. He wants to save him, but there is nothing he can do.
"But..." Guo Jing still wanted to fight for it.
But Lu Wende said impatiently: "Okay, okay, don't mention this matter again, we just need to defend the city, nothing else is important."
Now that the words have reached this point, Guo Jing will not say anything more. In his heart, he only hopes that nothing will happen to Dongzhang and the others. There is nothing else he can do to help.
Looking down at the city gate, there were still some people who had not entered the city. Guo Jing no longer hesitated and shouted: "Brothers! Follow me down to save people!!"
Guo Jing raised his arms and shouted, and a group of Beggar Clan disciples and righteous warriors rushed down the ladder. Because Lu Wende refused to send troops to rescue Dongzhang, they had already become angry.
And Lu Wende didn't dare to say anything to stop them now. He just watched Guo Jing leading a group of Jianghu martyrs to rush down the city. Guo Jing's group was not small, there must be at least more than 600 people.
Each of them was a good player in the world. The two armies met, and as soon as they met, more than a hundred Mongolian soldiers were cut off from their horses, and they were caught off guard.
Seeing this, the army from the west divided into two teams of thousands of people and rushed to the city gate. Guo Jing protected the group of refugees and rushed to the door. He raised his head and shouted to the city: "Open the city gate quickly!!"
At this time, the shouts from the city moved the world. Guo Jing and his men rushed left and right, but could not get out of the encirclement. Zhu Ziliu led a group of men and horses, who wanted to go out of the city to meet them. They only heard the horns sounding urgently, and two thousand-man troops from Mongolia rushed forward.
Before arriving at the city gate.
Kublai Khan's use of troops was indeed extraordinary. As soon as the city opened the door to meet him, four teams of elite soldiers swarmed in.
Lu Wende was horrified by the sight and shouted an order: "Don't open the city!"
After saying this, he ordered two hundred swordsmen and axemen to guard the city gate and kill anyone who dared to open the city gate. General Wang Jian led the crossbowmen to fire arrows at the top of the city.
There was chaos inside and outside the city. At this moment, a group of righteous men armed with weapons suddenly came from the side of the city gate. A closer look revealed that the leader with gray hair was none other than Hong Qigong, the former leader of the Beggar Clan whom he had not seen for a long time.
, followed by Huang Rong and Guo Fu.
This group of people numbered at least a thousand, and most of them were disciples of the Beggar Clan.
With their joining, they instantly caused a lot of losses to the Mongolian army, but they saw that Hong Qigong was getting stronger and stronger, and he could defeat several people with one punch and one palm with the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.
Guo Fu personally led a team of troops to protect Huang Rong, wielding her sword and slashing at the enemy troops as they pushed towards the city gate. The same was true for the Wu brothers. Everyone was red-eyed.
At this time, he suddenly saw that the Mongolian army was in chaos. Thousands of cavalry retreated to both sides like a tide. Guo Jing held a spear and galloped out. The strong men behind him formed a square formation and charged forward.
The phalanx was very strict and it rushed to the gate of the city in a moment. Guo Jing turned his horse's head and went to the rear in person. With his spear raised, seven or eight Mongolian generals dismounted their horses. The Mongolian soldiers did not dare to approach for a while.
Lu Wende had high hopes for Guo Jing. He knew that whether he could defend Xiangyang City would depend on Guo Jing. Seeing that he was out of danger, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed and hurriedly shouted: "Open the city! You can only open the city in a small way, but not in a wide way!"
At that moment, the city gate was opened three or four feet, with only room for one horse. Strong men rushed into the city one after another. The Mongol army's yellow flag waved, and two teams of horses rushed in from the left and right.
Lu Wende shouted: "Brother Guo Jing, enter the city quickly! We won't wait for others."
Seeing that not all of his subordinates had escaped danger, Guo Jing refused to enter the city first. Instead, he returned to his horse and assassinated the two Mongolian warriors who had rushed closest.
"father!!!"
While he was enjoying suicide, a familiar voice suddenly came to his ears. Guo Jing turned his head and looked at the source of the sound. This sight made him overjoyed and shouted: "Rong'er! Fu'er!!"
After saying that, he hit the horse and ran towards his wife and children. No one could stop him wherever he passed. When he got close, he saw an extremely fierce battle. Mongolian troops kept flying out of the crowd. Guo Jing took a closer look and was so excited.
Shout: "Senior Hong!!"
The place where the fierce battle was taking place was none other than Hong Qigong. When he moved his palms, he was accompanied by bursts of dragon roars, and his moves were like dragons. He created a vacuum zone with him as the center, and no one dared to approach.
At this time, the Mongolian army was about to form a second charge. Seeing this, Guo Jing couldn't help shouting: "Rong'er! Fu'er! You hurry into the city!"
After saying that, he escorted his wife and children all the way to the city gate, and when he saw his wife and daughter entering the city gate one after another, he rode back.
"Senior Hong!! I'm here to help you!!"
Guo Jing held a spear and led more than ten Mongolian soldiers to rush to Hong Qigong's side. At this time, many Jianghu righteous men had already fought and retreated, and they all came to the city gate.
With Guo Jing and Hong Qigong behind them, they were able to escape into the city gate smoothly.
Seeing the Mongolian army gathering more and more, Lu Wende decisively ordered and shouted: "Close the city gate!!!"
At this time, except for Guo Jing and Hong Qigong, all the rebels had successfully retreated.
But seeing the Mongol army moving like a tidal wave, even though Guo Jing and Hong Qigong were skilled in martial arts, how could they withstand the impact of the army with just the strength of two people?
Guo Fu, who had already run to the top of the city, saw that the situation was critical. Without hesitation, she grabbed a rope and threw it down the city, shouting: "Dad!! Grandpa Hong! Come up quickly!!!"
When Guo Jing heard this, he turned around and saw that the last beggar gang brother had entered the city, but more than ten Mongolian soldiers followed him and rushed into the city gate.
The knife and axemen beside the city gate resisted the enemy and closed the door with force. The two-foot-thick iron gate was slowly closing.
"Senior Hong! Get on the horse!!" Guo Jing shouted anxiously.
Hong Qigong also knew that he could not be willing to fight, so he jumped on Guo Jing's horse one by one.
See Hong Qigong sitting firmly.
Guo Jing shouted loudly, thrust out his spear and stabbed a Mongolian ten-man captain to death. He then rode his horse and rushed towards the city gate. However, he saw that the two masters and disciples were using all their skills and no one could challenge them wherever they passed.
Approaching the city gate, Guo Jing jumped up, grabbed the long rope, hung it on the wall and shouted: "Senior Hong!!"
"Here we come!!" Hong Qigong smiled boldly, and then he jumped up and held his palms with Guo Jing.
Guo Fu's hand sank, and the skin on her palm was scratched by the rope.
She tried her best to pull, but the weight of these two grown men was beyond the ability of a little girl like her. Upon seeing this, Zhu Ziliu hurried over to help, and then he pulled Guo Jing and Hong Qigong up.
Zhang Xu.
Seeing this, the leader of the Mongolian army who oversaw the battle shouted: "Fire the arrows!"
In an instant, thousands of crossbows were fired. Guo Jing and Hong Qigong had already prepared for this attack when they jumped up. Guo Jing was holding the rope with one hand and Hong Qigong with the other hand, so he could only rely on Hong Qigong to defend against the enemy.
male.
I saw him pulling off the hem of his robe, holding Guo Jing's hand with his right hand, and dancing the robe in front of him with his left hand like a big shield. He penetrated the robe with all his strength and deflected all the arrows. The two of them were safe.
But it was pity that Guo Jing's horse was hit by hundreds of long arrows in front of the city gate, and fell to the ground like a hedgehog.
Guo Fu and Zhu Ziliu alternated their hands, pulling Guo Jing higher and higher.
Seeing that his body was still two feet away from the top of the city, a tall and thin monk suddenly appeared from the Mongolian army, wearing a yellow cassock. He was Jinlun Dharma King.
He took the iron bow and long arrow from a Mongolian officer, fully pulled the string, and attached the wolf's tooth carved feather. He knew that Guo Jing and the old man were very skilled in martial arts, and if they shot at a person, they would be blocked. When he let go of his right hand, the feather
The arrow left the string and shot toward the middle section of the long rope.
This move was very vicious. The arrow was about one foot away from Guo and Zhu, and they were unable to block it.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Jinlun Dharma King was afraid that the two of them would show up with a strange method to crack it, so he shot an arrow at Zhu Ziliu and Guo Jing each.
The first arrow snapped, breaking the long rope into two pieces, and the second and third arrows, driven by the strong wind, continued to shoot at Zhu Ziliu and Guo Jing.
After the long rope was broken, Guo Jing's body sank, so the second arrow could not hit him.
Zhu Ziliu felt a light touch on his hand and shouted: "No!"
Guo Fu turned pale and shouted: "Dad!!"
At this time, the feather arrow had reached the front door. The arrow was extremely powerful. The shooter showed extremely deep internal strength. At this moment, the city was full of people. Zhu Ziliu knew that if he lowered his head to dodge, the arrow would definitely hurt Guo Fu behind him.
At that moment, he stretched out two fingers of his left hand, looked for the direction of the long arrow, flicked it on the arrow, and the arrow fell diagonally down the city wall.
When Guo Jing felt that the rope was cut off, he was secretly surprised. Although he would not be injured if he fell down the city, how could he survive being surrounded by thousands of troops and horses? At this time, the enemy army was approaching the city gate. If our army opened the city to meet them,
The enemy will definitely take the opportunity to seize the door.
In the critical situation, he didn't have time to think carefully, and threw Hong Qigong upwards with his left hand: "Go!!"
Hong Qigong used his strength to climb over the city and landed lightly on the top of the city. Then he frowned and looked down at Guo Jing on the wall.
I saw Guo Jing's left foot was a little on the city wall, and his body was suddenly raised by more than ten feet. He followed with his right foot and was a little higher on the city wall.
There are very few people in the world who know the advanced martial arts of this "ladder to heaven". Even if someone practices it, each step can only go up two or three feet. He steps up the bare city wall like this, and jumps up to ten feet in one step.
, the level of martial arts is truly astonishing.
Suddenly, there was silence both above and below the city, and tens of thousands of eyes were all fixed on him.
I don’t know what they would think if they saw Dong Zhang walking on the wall as if he were walking on flat ground.
Jin Lun Dharma King was secretly shocked. He knew that the "ladder to heaven" skill was all about jumping up with one breath. As long as there was a slight interruption in the middle, he breathed a sigh of relief. He could no longer run up the third step. He bent his bow and nocked an arrow.
Another arrow was shot at Guo Jing's vest.
The arrow flew away like the wind, and all the troops above and below the city shouted: "Don't let go of the arrow!"
Seeing Guo Jing's amazing martial arts, both armies admired him and hoped that he would march to the top of the city. Although the Mongolian soldiers were enemies, they also respected heroes. When they suddenly saw someone hurting them with hidden arrows, they were all indignant.
Guo Jing heard the arrow coming from behind and shouted secretly: "That's it!"
Just as he was about to fight back to deflect the arrow, a deafening roar suddenly sounded on his forehead: "How dare you!!!"
I saw Hong Qigong standing on the top of the city with his feet on the horse, his palms tucked in his belly, and then he pushed his palms out wildly.
Woo!!!!
A strange whistle sounded immediately, and the violent palm wind knocked the arrows off the wall.
Jin Lun Dharma King's pupils shrank when he saw it, and he was so shocked that he blurted out: "Who is this person!!?"
Xiao Xiangzi, who was beside him, frowned, thought for a moment, and then said, "This person should be Hong Qigong, the nine-fingered beggar."
"It's him!!!" Jin Lun Dharma King stared at the person on the wall with bright eyes.
Thanks to Hong Qigong's action, Guo Jing finally landed firmly on the city wall after two leaps. Seeing the amazing actions of these two masters and apprentices, tens of thousands of soldiers on and off the city all opened their mouths and couldn't close their eyes.
Deafening cheers instantly erupted from the city walls.
at the same time.
In the dense forest a few kilometers away, after Dong Zhang and his party entered the forest, the pursuers behind him no longer dared to pursue rashly. They stopped their horses and watched helplessly as Dong Zhang and his party disappeared deep into the forest.
Opposite Xiangyang City are endless plains. There is a dense forest three miles away, and behind the dense forest is a tall mountain peak.
At this time, on the edge of the cliff on the top of the mountain, a disheveled man was sitting astride the edge of the cliff, with one foot dangling in the air and the other bent in front of his chest. He was holding a wine gourd on his knee in one hand.
, eyes fixed on Xiangyang City in the distance where tens of thousands of people cheered loudly.
The mountain wind blew the man's hair wildly around. After a while, a beauty in white came up behind the man, stretched out her hand to gather his long hair, and tied it gently behind his head.
"Don't think about it, everyone has his own destiny."
"Oh, yes, everyone has his own destiny. Look, aren't they cheering for their heroes?" The man raised his head and poured a sip of wine into his mouth, laughing.
The beauty in white rolled her beautiful eyes, rolled her eyes at this careless man, then reached out and quickly snatched the wine bottle from his hand, and said angrily: "You are injured and you still drink! Don't drink anymore!!"
After the woman finished speaking, she reached out and knocked the man on the head, and then followed his gaze towards the lively Xiangyang City in the distance.
At this time, the mountain breeze gently blew her hair, and the two white hair ribbons also fluttered playfully in the wind. The woman closed the hair around her ears and whispered: "In my heart, there is only one hero in this world."
