The pass leading to the southern path was taken back by Kublai Khan. Xiang Shibi knew very well that this was the biggest mistake. It was easy to defend but difficult to attack. If you want to break through that pass, you would be afraid of great casualties. Ww    W.

If the attack was at night, a large number of casualties could be avoided. However, Kublai's reinforcements would not allow them to arrive until dark, and Xiang Shibi decisively issued an order to attack the dead.

He believed that as long as he devoted his efforts to open up the southern exit and rescue the remaining troops of Alibuge, the Mongolian internal struggle would never end, and even if he sacrificed more than 10,000 people in front of him, it would be worth it.

From taking advantage of the chaos to kill Alibuge's army, to now desperately rescuing Alibuge's army, all of this is just a change in interests and the current situation, and it is also a mixture of Zong Zheng's personal purpose.

Alibuge's 70,000 army is ultimately the main force of Mongolia. If Kublai Khan's troops are allowed to be conquered without bloodshed, it will inevitably be a disaster for the Song Dynasty in the future. This sharp blade will sooner or later penetrate the heart of the Southern Song Dynasty. Therefore, Xiang Shibi has an absolute reason to try his best to weaken this force while Kublai Khan and Alibuge's internal struggle, especially when Alibuge's army had just encountered a flood and was exhausted and had no combat power.

However, once this advantage becomes a threat, Xiang Shibi had to withdraw from the valley when he saw the good news, further threatening the Kublai Khan's plan to conquer Ali Buge's tens of thousands of elite soldiers without bloodshed.

The so-called situation and fighter opportunities are changing all the time. As a famous general of the Southern Song Dynasty, Xiang Shibi knew the truth. He knew very well that at this moment, he had to do his best to release the beasts in the valley, because only in this way can Mongolia continue to fight in the internal strife and the Song Dynasty will maintain peace for a while.

However, all of this was just Xiang Shibi's thoughts. Zong Zheng saw through his thoughts, so he could mobilize his words. This was also the bargaining chip that Zong Zheng could indirectly convince Xiang Shibi and others.

However, Zong Zheng's purpose is far less than this. In his heart, revenge is his ultimate goal. Whether it is the Southern Song Dynasty, Mongolia, the Central Plains martial arts sects, or foreign masters, Beauty Valley, or these people, he holds grudges. The union of the Broken Heart Valley and Helin is to introduce these forces into a situation of fighting each other, and slowly eliminate these forces through this endless struggle.

Whether it is the battle with Lin or the battle of Broken Heart Valley, this is just the beginning of Zong Zheng’s entire chess game, not the end.

And when Kublai Khan chose to believe in Zongzheng, and when he activated the Tianhuo and Earth Water Plan, he was destined to be unable to conquer Alibu Ge as he wished.

Especially when the troops were sent to Shibi, the entire Duancheng Valley was destined to be a dead end, or in other words, Duancheng Valley itself was more like a morgue.

In the heartbreak valley, the Central Plains sects and Alibuge's army fell into a melee. As the last mortal hostile forces between Mongolia and the Southern Song Dynasty, the two sides were incompatible and they fought together.

However, after all, Ali Buge has the advantage in terms of numbers, but he dare not forget that his biggest enemy comes from outside the valley. If he cannot break through Kublai Khan's blockade of the heartbreak valley as soon as possible, he knows very well that it will be too late to wait for Helin's elite to arrive.

Therefore, while Alibuge was mobilizing some troops to deal with the Central Plains factions in the valley, he mobilized heavy troops to attack the south.

The southern exit is high above the ground, and is a long and narrow slope, with narrow passages covered with hidden piles and tripping ropes.

Alibuge's cavalry held a long scimitar and charged to the south exit, with three horses running in parallel, and morale was high.

Seeing the surging soldiers approaching step by step, Liu Bingzhong, who was in charge of commanding the backcourt, held his breath and carefully calculated the best shooting distance.

"put!"

With a command, thousands of sharp arrows were shot out from the long passage, and an arc was drawn in the air, like locusts passing by, approaching the rushing cavalry.

With the help of the terrain advantage, the bow and crossbow are extremely powerful against the cavalry. The cavalry is shot and overturned. Occasionally, 20% of the brave soldiers avoid the rain of arrows, but they also fall into stakes or are tripped by the squat.

Ali Buge was very displeased when he saw the cavalry being frustrated.

Suddenly, a horn sounded outside the valley.

Outside the Broken Heart Valley, the battle between the Xiang Shibi Army and the Kublai Khan Army began.

For Kublai Khan, this was a red flag, and his face suddenly became solemn.

As expected, the thing that was most worried about was that once the Song army seized the pass, it would be pressed and there would be no danger to defend the southern exit.

Although the narrow passage is a natural barrier, it can only line up more than 2,000 soldiers, and the rest of the soldiers have to be exposed to the open perimeter.

As for Alibuge, he seemed to see the dawn of victory in his new defeat, with a light corner of his mouth, and a joke about watching Kublai Khan's good show.

Hearing the fighting sounds from outside the valley, Ali Buge could imagine the fierceness of the war outside the valley. He felt that at this moment, it was the best moment to put pressure on Kublai Khan, and then ordered the crossbowmen to shoot arrows into the passage as cover, and the cavalry charged again.

Seeing the rain of arrows flying from the valley, Liu Bingzhong hurriedly ordered the crossbowmen to hide for the time being. The army in front raised its shields to block the rain of arrows by using the clamping of the narrow passage.

Seeing that the rain of arrows hit the shield, it was not at all harmful to Kublai Khan's army, Ali Buge clenched his fists and clattered.

Although his soldiers recovered a little energy, they were still in poor physical strength. In addition, the terrain of the valley entrance in the south was not conducive to Alibuge's army. Therefore, Alibuge's army suffered consecutive defeats, suffered heavy losses in many charges, and their morale was greatly reduced.

The cavalry was blocked and raided by tripping ropes and stakes many times, and for a moment, Alibuge fell into a deadlock.

The competition outside the valley is also at a deadlock.

The entire Broken Heart Valley is filled with blood.

Kublai Khan was attacked from both sides and under heavy pressure. His hope was to send additional reinforcements from Helin.

However, his wishful thinking is probably going to fail, because Zong Zheng had already arranged everything.

The canyon in Xinburi was not only an obstacle to the advancement of Alibuge's army, but now it is also an obstacle to the reinforcements of Kublai Khan and Lin. I'm afraid Kublai Khan hadn't thought of this, but he still put his hope on the reinforcements of Helin.

According to Zongzheng's plan, in order to block Alibuge's pursuit, Kublai Khan built a dirt city in the narrowest passage based on the terrain in Xinburi's canyon.

Ma Yi had been lurking there for a long time as Zong Zheng said, waiting for the target to appear.

The nine masters rescued from Juxian Pavilion rushed to Xinburi, the reinforcements of Kublai, and were intercepted by Ma Yi.

After Ma Yi took out the seal letter of this sect to clarify Zongzheng's plan and to understand the situation in the Broken Heart Valley, the nine masters felt the situation was serious and thought that it was Zongzheng's arrangement and Zongzheng who rescued him, and that he would not harm him, so he believed Zongzheng without reservation.

According to Zong Zheng's plan, they prepared to block the reinforcements coming from Helin in the Tucheng City of Xinburi.

When the army led by Brother Yixiang and Zhang Hongyan rushed to Xinbuli, Yu Tucheng encountered strong obstacles from nine masters.

Yi Xiang Ge's cavalry and infantry charged many times, and were all repelled by nine masters.

Under the cover of Tucheng, the number of troops is no longer an advantage. Although the nine masters are small, they are the people who have rushed through the Ghost Gate of Juxian Pavilion. They are all very good at martial arts. With the help of the terrain advantage, the defense line composed of nine people is as solid as a rock.

Brother Yi Xiang was not aware of the critical situation on Kublai Khan's side and was not in a hurry to rush there. However, the frustration in front aroused his strong dissatisfaction. Seeing that both the cavalry and the infantry were defeated, he turned to order the Gongyu Team to shoot arrows.

Thousands of arrows rose up in the sky and headed towards the Tucheng.

The small Tucheng was instantly filled with arrows, and the original Tucheng turned into a big hedgehog, lying motionless on the main road.

The rain of arrows settled, and Tucheng turned to quiet.

Brother Yixiang made a forward gesture.

Then hundreds of infantry soldiers from behind were carefully fumbled towards Tucheng again.

Just as they were more than ten steps away from Tucheng, a fierce wind suddenly gathered in Tucheng, and the clusters of arrows inserted on Tucheng were all absorbed by this strong wind.

With just a wave of recoil, the arrows went towards the infantry.

In a blink of an eye, hundreds of infantry were seriously injured, and they were wailing and rolling.

Among the nine masters, the internal strength of one of them is enough to transform the exercise into qi and use the energy to protect the body. The internal strength gathered by the nine masters is naturally extraordinary.

Brother Yixiang saw the smoke and dust rolling up in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh at the devil who was stationed in the Tucheng City.

Inside and outside the Broken Heart Valley, the two sides fought fiercely, fighting to the point where the sky and the earth were dark, and the sun and the moon were gone.

The smell of blood was extremely strong. Vultures from the white inside and outside gradually came as they smelled the smell. More and more, they shouted, ready to eat a bite of corpse.

The entire pass was like a pile of corpses, and the soil was dyed black and red with blood.

In the Si hour, the battle situation at the Pass was reversed.

Of course, this reversal comes at the cost of a large number of casualties. If there are no bodies of dead soldiers to make up for the disadvantages of the terrain, this reversal is quite rare.

Soon, although Dong Wenbing was brave, he could not withstand the strong attack of the Song army and had to retreat outside the southern exit.

There, Siba had already set up a defensive formation.

The barrier of the pass left Sibabufang with extremely precious time and effectively consumed the physical strength of the Song army, while Kublai Khan's army was waiting for it. Therefore, for the time being, Kublai Khan had a slight advantage.

Siba and Liu Bingzhong were pressing the team in front and back courts, and Kublai Khan naturally believed it, but he was also anxious and kept counting the time in his heart.

He was looking forward to the emergence of He Lin's reinforcements.

According to time, Brother Yixiang will arrive around noon, so, in Kublai Khan's heart, as long as he resists both sides for an hour, everything will be reversed.

After Xiang Shibi's army approached the south exit, under the escort of the arrow rain, he personally led the army to rush towards Siba's army.

The two sides fought fiercely.

The battle situation in Xinburi was in a brief stalemate. The poor brother Yixiang still didn't know what kind of pressure Kublai was under.
