Chapter 97 Divine Eagle Epee
More than a month after the Heroes Conference, the Mongolian army set out to Xiangyang, and another Xiangyang battle began.
Meng Ge did not have any tentative moves at all. The army arrived in Xiangyang and set up camp. After three days of rest, at the beginning of the siege, he immediately ordered people to launch a fierce attack. He wanted to break through Xiangyang as quickly as possible, and took down this bone that had been difficult to chew after years of gnawing.
Looking down from the high Xiangyang city, I saw Mongolian soldiers everywhere, and I could not see the end at all. The Mongolian army had besieged Xiangyang several times, but the strong army was the most powerful and strong. Fortunately, Guo Jing was familiar with the various strategies of the Mongolian army to attack the city for a long time and was familiar with the military strategy of the Mongolian army, and he was familiar with the military strategy of Yue Fei left by the military. He had already prepared it. No matter how the enemy used bows and arrows, firearms, stones, ladders, etc. to attack the city, he dispatched troops and cracked them one by one.
The battle lasted until sunset, and the Mongolian army had lost more than 3,000 troops, but they continued to fight bravely and attacked with endless killings.
In addition to tens of thousands of elite soldiers, there are still hundreds of thousands of people in Xiangyang City. Everyone knows that once this city is destroyed, no one will survive. Therefore, although the husband of young and brave men rise up and holds swords to defend the city, even women, children, old and weak, they also carry soil and stones to fight against the powerful enemy. For a moment, the sound of killing inside and outside the city is shaken by the earth, and feather arrows in the air come and go, like flying locusts.
Guo Jing held a long sword in his hand and was in charge of the army at the top of the city. Huang Rong stood by her side. The rest of Huang Yaoshi, Hong Qigong, Yideng, Lao Naked and others stood together to watch the battle. Looking at the Mongolian soldiers all over the mountains and fields, they could not see the end and the Mongolian soldiers who were brave enough to attack the city, all of them were frowning. They were deeply worried. They felt that it was really difficult for Xiangyang to defend this time.
Suddenly, I heard the Mongolian soldiers under the city shouting: "Long live. Long live, long live!"
The shouts came from far away, like a tide coming. Later, hundreds of thousands of people shouted in unison, just like the sky and the earth were cracked. But when a nine-shaped diamond was raised high, the iron cavalry guarded the blue umbrella and yellow cover, a bunch of people rushed towards him, but it was Khan Mengge who was in charge of the battle.
When the Mongolian officers and soldiers saw the Khan coming in person, their morale was greatly boosted. The red flag was rushing, and the teams under the city were divided to the left and right. Two teams of 10,000 rushed up and attacked the north gate. These were the Khan's personal soldiers, the most powerful army, and the new force that had never been dispatched so far. Everyone wanted to make achievements in front of the Khan's eyes. Hundreds of ladders were erected. Mongolian soldiers and generals crawled towards the city like ants, and the offensive became even more fierce.
You cannot just defend the city, otherwise it will be difficult to last for a long time if you are beaten like this, and it will also be hit. The best defense is attack, so you need to go out of the city to counterattack from time to time. First, you can interrupt the enemy's continuous attack. After the counterattack, try to destroy the enemy's siege equipment; second, you can counterattack from time to time to boost the morale of the defender and attack the enemy's morale. Excellent defense generals need to lead the defense in the middle and attack, combining offense.
Guo Jing was familiar with military books and had many years of experience in defending the city in Xiangyang. He naturally understood this. At this time, he saw that the Mongolian army was greatly boosted after the Khan appeared to supervise the battle. Mengge sent his 10,000-strong team of personal soldiers to join the siege, and the offensive became fierce again. He knew that it was time to send people out of the city to fight for a while, interrupt the enemy's offensive, and relieve the pressure on the city.
Thinking of this, Guo Jing ordered someone to call Yang Guo and explain to him, asking him to take five thousand soldiers out of the city to rush for a while.
Yang Guo took the order to go down the city. Not long after, a wall below the wall outside the north gate that was attacked by the Mongolian army suddenly collapsed, revealing the wide size of the city gate. Yang Guo took the lead and led five thousand soldiers out of the gate that broke the city wall.
The city gate was being pushed by dozens of Mongolian soldiers and hit hard, so it was impossible to open easily. This section of the city wall had long been hollowed out, leaving behind the secret door left behind in order to prepare for the troops to kill the enemy. From the outside, it was still intact. In fact, there was only a thin layer left inside, which could be broken by one hit. In order to prevent any Mongolian soldiers siege from crashing by chance, there were piles of wooden platoons inside. When the troops on their side left the city, they first moved the wooden platoon and then broke through the last layer of the city wall.
The secret door looked flawless from the outside. Just like the city walls elsewhere, the Mongolian soldiers climbing the city walls could not have expected that there was a secret door hidden here. When Yang Guo led his troops and horses to fight out of the secret door, he immediately caught the Mongolian army off guard.
Yang Guo held a dark black sword in his hand. The sword was not sharp at all. The sword edges on both sides were blunt, and the tip of the sword was even more round and looked like a half-sphere. It was called a sword, but it was just a sword shape, and it looked more like a heavy fire stick that was blackened by fireworks. But even such a sword that was not as good as a fire stick was extremely powerful in Yang Guo's hands.
The last layer of wall tiles left to cover the secret door was blasted by him with a sword. The wall tiles shot out even overturned a ladder that was being mounted outside. The Mongolian soldiers nearby were also hit dozens. More than a dozen were hit in the head, and they were beaten to the point of blood, screaming loudly, and four or five were killed by the wall tiles that were shot.
Yang Guo took the lead and then leaped out the horse, swept the sword left and right, and then directly swept the two ladders that were being built on both sides. All the Mongolian soldiers who were climbing bravely on the ladder screamed and fell down.
After sweeping off the two ladders, Yang Guo did not stop at all. While riding his horse forward, he bent over and swept his sword. But he heard the sound of "dangdang bang" and the hands of more than a dozen Mongolian soldiers in front of his horse were swept out of their hands and flew out in the air. Some were tightly held, and even people were swept away. Some were shook the tiger's mouth, their arms were broken, or their mouths were spitting blood, which was directly shocked to internal injuries. But no one could stand on the spot, with just one sword, and a large area of his horse was swept away.
The dark black sword in his hand swung horizontally and vertically, with great movements open and close, and there was no sword move, all of which were very simple sword styles. However, although the sword moves were simple, they were extremely powerful, and there was no enemy in his hands. Wherever his black sword passed, he would die if he was next to each other, and if he touched it, he would die.
When a Mongolian commander saw Yang Guo's greatness, he relied on his courage and swung his sword to fight. After receiving only one sword, he was immediately chopped and spitted blood and flew back several feet away. After finally struggling to get up, he looked at Yang Guo with fear. Although the Song general held a sword in his hand, it was not a light weapon, and it was undoubtedly a heavy weapon, which was even heavier than a big sword and a heavy halberd. He was afraid that it would not be straight or sixty or seventy kilograms. In addition, the opponent's wings were strong, so when he waved it, he could stop it.
Speaking of Yang Guo's sword, it is indeed of extraordinary origin. It is the mysterious iron heavy sword left by the sword demon Dugu Qiubai that he obtained in the original book. The whole sword weighs 8864 kilograms in total. When it is swung, it is extremely powerful and unstoppable.
Since Yang Guo became a disciple of Yin Zhiping in Zhongnan Mountain, his original fate has long been changed. His subsequent growth path is very different from his life experience. But it may be caused by the inertia of powerful stories. Yang Guo met the magic carving in Tongbai Mountain outside Xiangyang City, and then arrived at Dugu Qiubai's sword tomb and obtained this black iron heavy sword.
This happened the second year after Yin Zhiping re-entered the world. That year, Yin Zhiping taught the "Nine Yang Jing" to Yang Guo and Shi Bingyun at the Lujia Villa in Jiading. After Yang Guo and Guo Fuguo returned to Xiangyang shortly after. Later, when he went to Tongbai Mountain to hunt and play, he happened to meet the god sculpture that could not fly in the mountains, and then followed the god sculpture to the sword tomb of Dugu Qiujian, and got this adventure that originally belonged to him.
Later, under the guidance of the Divine Eagle, he learned the heavy sword technique of "the heavy sword has no edge, and great skill is not craftsmanship". After practicing for the past ten years, and he had to teach the "Nine Yang True Sutra", his martial arts are very fast, and it is no longer the same as before. Now his martial arts are equal to the top masters such as Guo Jing and Huang Yaoshi. If he holds the magic weapon of the Black Iron Heavy Sword, he can sometimes win a small move and a half-stage.
