There is a small stream flowing out of the mountain in the west of Xiangyang City. They walked straight to the east and came to a hill. They climbed a cliff and looked into the distance. They saw that the Han River was flowing southward. The suburbs were full of refugees, dragging men and women to Xiangyang. city.
Looking at the refugees all around, Zhang Dong frowned and thought to himself that the Mongolian soldiers must have stepped up their killings in the four villages, which caused the people of the Song Dynasty to be displaced and flocked to Xiangyang City to take refuge.
As a descendant of later generations, Dongzhang himself is also a minority. He has a deep-rooted belief that the fifty-six ethnic groups are one family, and he does not have any prejudice against the so-called 'foreign ethnic groups' of this era, whether they are Mongolian or Han. , will all be integrated into a unified body in the future, forming an indestructible big family.
But having no prejudices in my heart doesn't mean that I can watch the tragedy of massacre happening in front of my eyes and turn a blind eye.
Dongzhang was standing on the top of the mountain. He looked down the mountain and saw a stone tablet beside the road. On the tablet was engraved with the words "Hometown of Lang Dufu, the Ministry of Industry of the Tang Dynasty".
It turns out that this city of Xiangyang is the hometown of this great poet, and the most remarkable figure in Xiangyang in the past and present should be Zhuge Liang. Longzhong, twenty miles to the west, is where he farmed and lived in seclusion. Zhuge Liang's talent in governing the country and bringing peace to the people was naturally well known to future generations.
"Dedicate yourself to the best of your ability, and then die." This sentence came from his mouth. In the end, he also died of overwork, and the same is true for Guo Jing now.
Dongzhang raised his eyes and looked at Xiangyang City in the distance, but he saw densely packed refugees at the foot of the city gate, as numerous as a colony of ants. Dongzhang stared at the huge Xiangyang City in the distance and said softly, "Guo Jing, you can hold it." What?"
Just as Dongzhang was speaking, at the gate of Xiangyang City, a large group of refugees rushed towards the city gate, as if something was chasing behind them. They kept looking back while running. There were men among them. There were women, old and young, and even a woman with a baby in her arms.
The crowd was in chaos as they fled in a hurry. Some children had lost their parents and were turning around in panic to look for their parents. However, the sad and helpless screams were instantly drowned in the noisy sound. He could only panic. He watched the strangers pass by him and squeeze towards the city gate.
And this kind of scene is far from just this one. What's more, there are not many cases where children fall to the ground and are trampled on by refugees. Suddenly, there is a mess outside Xiangyang City, crying and screaming.
At this time, Guo Jing had just arrived at the top of the city. When he saw this scene, he couldn't help but glared and shouted loudly, "Why don't the guards open the city gate and let the people enter the city?!"
After saying that, he hurriedly walked a few steps and came to the middle of the city tower. At this moment, he saw a row of guards on the city wall with bows and arrows pointing at the refugees. He glanced down the city and saw that there were about ten refugees who had disobeyed orders and crossed the border. One was shot to death by the defenders on the city.
Guo Jing was shocked and shouted, "What are you doing?! Open the city gate quickly!!"
When the guard saw it was Guo Jing, he nodded slightly, but said nothing. He just stared at the refugees below the city with cold eyes.
Seeing this, Guo Jing continued, "The people were massacred by the Mongolian soldiers, how could we not let them in?!"
The guard glanced at the furious Guo Jing and said, "Marshal Lu said that there are Mongolian spies among the refugees. They must not be allowed into the city, otherwise it will be a big disaster."
Guo Jing pointed angrily at the crowd of refugees below the city and shouted loudly, "So what if there are just one or two spies? How can we lose the lives of thousands of people because of this? Open the city quickly!"
Guo Jing has been guarding the city for a long time and has repeatedly performed extraordinary feats. His prestige has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Although he has no official position, the guards dare not ignore his orders because the officers and soldiers guarding the city all know that Guo Jing alone is worth hundreds of people. , or even a thousand people, as long as he is standing at the city gate, it will be useless no matter how many Mongolian troops come.
Therefore, the general had to think quietly, and finally had no choice but to compromise under Guo Jing's "aggressive" gaze. He had no choice but to order the city to be opened and at the same time ordered someone to fly to report to Lu Wende, the prefect of Xiangyang City.
Following the orders to "open the city gate", the heavy city gate was finally slowly opened by the defenders. When the crowd of refugees saw it, they couldn't help but have hope of living.
I saw people supporting the old and young, rushing into the city. But just halfway through, I saw dust flying in the distance. The Mongolian army was attacking from the north, but the Mongolian elite soldiers and cavalry had been hiding behind the people.
Since Genghis Khan, when the Mongolian army attacks a city, it always drives the enemy's civilians first. The defenders only need to be soft-handed and stop shooting, and the Mongolian soldiers will follow immediately.
This method can not only kill the enemy's civilians, but also shake the enemy's soldiers' morale. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone. It is cruel and vicious, and often has miraculous results.
Guo Jing had been in the Mongolian army for a long time, so he naturally knew its methods well, but he had no good way to crack it. He saw elite Mongolian soldiers armed with guns and knives, forcing the Song people to go to the city. The people were getting closer and closer, and many of them could not squeeze in. Those at the city gate climbed up the ladders one after another.
After receiving the news at this time, Lu Wende, the governor of Xiangyang City, was riding a green horse quickly towards the city gate. He looked around and saw that the situation was very critical. He drew out the sword on his waist and shouted, "It's important to defend the city." !Fire the arrow!”
After hearing the order, the soldiers immediately drew their bows and fired arrows. Suddenly, arrows rained down from the top of the city. Accompanied by shrill screams, a group of refugees were hit by arrows and fell off the ladder. There were also a few refugees who were still lining up to enter the city gate. Some people fell to the ground with arrows.
At this time, many people standing behind saw that they could not enter the city, so they turned around and ran. But as soon as they ran about ten meters away, the Mongolian soldiers chopped off their heads with a knife and stabbed a hole with a gun, forcing the people to continue walking back. Siege the city.
Guo Jing was standing next to Lu Wende at the moment. When he saw the hellish miserable situation under the city gate, his chest and abdomen were heaving violently with anger, and his face was red with anger, but there was nothing he could do. The arrow rain had just passed.
I heard Lu Wende shout again, "Fire the arrow!"
As soon as he finished speaking, rows of guards fired another round of arrows. Seeing this, Guo Jing strode to Lu Wende and took his arm, shouting, "Sir! You can't do this! We people are innocent. Yes!!"
Lu Wende waved his arms and shouted, "In such a critical situation, even if he is innocent, he can only be killed by mistake!"
Guo Jing shouted, "No! How can a good man be killed by mistake?!"
Staring at the refugees scattered in a hurry below, Lu Wende said, "Not to mention good people, at this moment, even babies can be killed!!"
When Guo Jing saw that he could not persuade him, he was filled with anger, but there was nothing he could do. He looked at the civilians who were being killed one by one by the Mongolian army, and listened to their shrill screams. Guo Jing was in great pain.
He turned around and left, came to the city corridor, and shouted, "Brothers of the Beggar Clan and all martial arts knights! Everyone, follow me!"
After saying that, he was going to jump down the ladder to the city.
At the same time, on the north side of Xiangyang City, six fast horses suddenly came running quickly. The leader stood on the horse's back, with his black hair blowing in the wind, and a pale fox mask on his face. , a group of people behind them also each held a mask, including tigers, birds, and Akainu.
The leader's eyes were indifferent hidden under the mask. From a distance, he looked like a seducer from hell.
"Who is coming!! Stop immediately!!!" the Mongolian general pointed his sword at the coming person and shouted.
But what he responded to was two iron spears shooting at him quickly. The iron spears were like two fast poisonous snakes, and they instantly pierced into the Mongolian army. The violent force overturned a dozen Mongolian soldiers in an instant. , and finally stuck on a war horse, piercing the neck of the war horse and nailing it to the ground, screaming in agony.
The Mongolian generals were shocked when they saw this. They knew that the person coming was not good, so they shouted, "Fire the arrows! Fire the arrows!!!"
However, they who were attacking the city in close combat did not bring many bows and arrows. They only carried hard weapons. Following his order, only a few sharp arrows flew towards the intruders.
The sharp arrow flew out and arrived in front of these people. At this critical moment, no one in the group of six panicked.
There was only a soft "swish" sound, and two white silk ribbons were seen flying in mid-air like two agile white snakes, knocking down the arrows one by one.
This stunning move stunned both the Mongolian Army and the Song Army. Guo Jing even recognized the person who came and couldn't help shouting in surprise, "It's them!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the leader was seen standing on the horse with his knees bent, holding the long knife in his left hand behind his waist, and then a cold voice came out with the wind, "You guys give me a raid, I want to leave no one behind in this group. Kill them all!!!”
