Chapter 731: Being able to know you is the greatest luck for me, Guo Jing!
Southern Song, Xiangyang City.
With the various experts of the Southern Song arriving in Xiangyang one after another.
And helping Guo Jing and the City Lord of Xiangyang to resist the Great Jin army.
At the beginning, they indeed caused some trouble for the Great Jin army by relying on their individual martial prowess.
But not long after, as the Great Jin army gradually adapted to these things, due to the difference in numbers, Xiangyang slowly began to falter.
After all, compared to the Great Jin army, the number of martial arts people in Xiangyang City plus the original garrison of Xiangyang City was still too small.
Facing the attack of the Great Jin army, which was like a flood, the people in Xiangyang City felt a sense of suffocation.
Even martial artists at the Earth Immortal Realm had times when they were exhausted when facing the Great Jin army, which was like a flood, day and night; not to mention that in Xiangyang City at this time, except for a few people, most of the martial arts people were Grandmasters, Masters, and below.
Even with martial artists at the Mortal Realm of the Earth Immortal like Guo Jing, Yang Guo, Lu Wushuang, Duan Yu, Qiao Feng, and Xuzhu, they had to keep an eye on Jinlun Fawang at all times, and with their strength, they had no way to carry out large-scale killing on the battlefield.
After all, if they didn't control it well, they would hurt the people on Xiangyang City's side, or even crack the walls of Xiangyang City.
And the Great Jin martial artists like Jinlun Fawang didn't have these concerns; whenever they fought with the martial artists in Xiangyang City, they would run to the foot of Xiangyang City's walls.
And they would release their internal energy unscrupulously; after all, no matter what, Great Jin was still in an advantageous position now.
Even if Jinlun Fawang and others used up their internal energy, they could calmly run to a safe place to recover their internal energy.
The people in Xiangyang City had to be careful about the internal energy in their bodies; after all, if they were not careful, they would be swallowed by the army.
With the growth of one and the decline of the other, the martial arts people inside Xiangyang City also became exhausted under the day and night attacks of the Great Jin army.
Inside Xiangyang City.
Guo Jing looked at Yang Guo, Lu Wushuang, Qiao Feng, and others who were covered in wounds, and a trace of desolation appeared in his eyes.
After a moment, Guo Jing spoke slowly:
"Everyone, I, Guo, do not want to force you all."
"Now everyone can see that the Great Jin army outside is like a tide; even if I, Guo, am unwilling, if there are no accidents, Xiangyang City will definitely be taken by the Great Jin army."
"Now Great Jin has completely surrounded Xiangyang City; neither military supplies nor food can be transported in."
"Even if we hold on here, the end will only be the destruction of the city and the death of the people."
Saying this, Guo Jing's tiger eyes became somewhat red.
After a pause, Guo Jing continued:
"Now, if you want to leave, it is not without a chance; I, Guo, will risk this life of mine to ensure you all successfully leave here."
"For the kindness of you all coming to help Xiangyang City, Guo Jing will never forget it in this life."
Guo Jing bowed deeply to the many martial arts people who came to help Xiangyang City.
The reason Guo Jing's emotions erupted somewhat now was precisely because Guo Jing knew that Xiangyang City could not be saved.
This Xiangyang City, to which he had devoted his youth and a long time, could not be saved.
Guo Jing didn't want these people to be buried with him; if he were to die, he would just die in Xiangyang City alone; these Jianghu people who came to help Xiangyang City had no obligation to die with him in Xiangyang City.
Seeing Guo Jing's desolate appearance, Yang Guo couldn't help but walk to Guo Jing and lift Guo Jing's body with both hands.
"Uncle Guo, actually I don't think you need to hold on here to the death."
"Come with us!"
"You have already paid too much for Xiangyang City and for the entire Southern Song."
"Now Xiangyang City can no longer be saved; even if you stay here, what is the use?"
"Uncle Guo, even if you leave here now, no one in the Nine Provinces will blame you!"
"Come back to the Tomb of the Living Dead with me and Shuang'er."
Yang Guo's eyes were also somewhat red at this time; from the time he was taken care of by Guo Jing when he was a child to when he saw Guo Jing after he grew up, he had never seen Guo Jing so desolate.
And Yang Guo really didn't want Guo Jing to die here; Yang Guo didn't have many relatives to begin with, and he didn't want to see any accidents happen to Guo Jing.
After hearing Yang Guo's words, Guo Jing didn't say anything but waved his hand at Yang Guo.
After a moment, Guo Jing continued:
"Guo'er, what I care about is not fame and fortune, nor what others say about me being a hero."
"I am just an ordinary person who wants the common people not to suffer from the hardships of war."
"I have stayed in Xiangyang for most of my life; Xiangyang has integrated too many of my emotions."
"If you still want to persuade me to leave, then don't say anything more; I will never leave."
Seeing Guo Jing's appearance, Yang Guo sighed helplessly.
"If you don't leave, then I won't leave either!"
"At worst, we will all die here together!"
In fact, from the moment Yang Guo started asking Guo Jing, Yang Guo knew that Guo Jing would definitely not leave here with him; he just wanted to try.
Since Guo Jing didn't want to leave, Yang Guo intended to advance and retreat with Xiangyang City; at worst, it was just death.
Before Guo Jing could say anything, Lu Wushuang walked to Yang Guo.
The look in her eyes when she looked at Yang Guo was only gentle, as if in Lu Wushuang's world, there was only Yang Guo.
"If Brother Yang doesn't leave, I won't leave either."
"Anyway, wherever I am, I am with Brother Yang; regardless of life or death, Shuang will stay by Brother Yang's side."
Lu Wushuang buried her head in Yang Guo's chest, her tone without any timidity but full of love.
And after Lu Wushuang finished speaking, whether it was the three brothers Qiao Feng, Duan Yu, and Xuzhu, or Hong Qigong and the Beggar Sect disciples, they all stood out, and in the end, they all chose to advance and retreat with Xiangyang City.
After seeing this scene, the tears in Guo Jing's eyes finally couldn't be held back and flowed out.
"You really don't have to do this!"
After speaking, Guo Jing looked at the firmness in their eyes and knew that no matter what he said, he couldn't change their minds.
Then Guo Jing said loudly to the many Jianghu people from Southern Song who came to support Xiangyang City:
"Being able to know you is the greatest luck for me, Guo Jing!"
"And fighting on the battlefield with you is my honor, Guo Jing!"
"Even if Xiangyang City is really broken by the Jin army in the end, we must let the people of Great Jin know."
"We Jianghu people of Southern Song are all iron-blooded men! If they want to step onto our land, they must pay the corresponding price!"
Hearing Guo Jing's words, the pride in the hearts of the Jianghu people who came to support Xiangyang also burned.
That's right, even if they died, they would bite off a piece of flesh from Great Jin!
After everyone opened their hearts, the people in Xiangyang City became unprecedentedly united; although they felt that if they relied only on themselves, they would definitely not be able to hold Xiangyang City, they still had to stay here!
It was just that they didn't know that at this moment, the Yue Family Army far away in Zhuxian Town had already begun to discuss the matter of supporting Xiangyang City! ===== CHAPTER 732 =====
