Chapter 870

After Yao Yue Yun arrived with twenty thousand Yue Family Army, and with the coordination of the remaining martial artists in Xiangyang City, they repelled the Jin army not long after.

This was the first victory Xiangyang City had won since it was besieged by the Jin army; in the past, they could only be forced to defend.

The many martial artists who had been struggling to hold on in Xiangyang City, after seeing this scene before their eyes, instantly had their eyes turn red.

After repelling the Jin army, Yao Yue Yun slowly walked to the foot of Xiangyang City with his twenty thousand Yue Family Army.

Looking at Yao Yue Yun before his eyes and the many elite soldiers and fierce generals behind him, Guo Jing felt a bit excited.

Before Yao Yue Yun could introduce himself, Guo Jing flew to Yao Yue Yun's front, cupped his fists, and said:

"Guo Jing thanks the young general and the brothers behind you this time!"

"May I ask if the young general was sent by the imperial court to help our Xiangyang City?"

At this moment, Guo Jing's eyes looking at Yao Yue Yun were filled with anticipation; after all, if Yao Yue Yun and these Yue Family Army before Guo Jing were sent by the imperial court, it would mean that the imperial court had not actually abandoned them.

This would greatly increase the satisfaction of Guo Jing and the martial artists within Xiangyang City toward the Northern Song imperial court.

Yao Yue Yun, after seeing the look in Guo Jing's eyes at this moment, was also conflicted for a moment; after all, for Yao Yue Yun himself, he actually did not want to attribute the credit for their Yue Family Army coming to help Xiangyang City to the imperial court.

After all, Yao Yue Yun was also very annoyed by the various actions of the current Northern Song imperial court.

But thinking of what Yao Yue Fei had said to him at the time, and the expectant look in Guo Jing's eyes at this moment, Yao Yue Yun could only sigh helplessly in his heart.

"Guo Daxia, I am Yao Yue Yun, and behind me are twenty thousand Yue Family Army under the command of Grand Marshal Yao Yue Fei!"

"We are now sent by the imperial court to come to Xiangyang City to help Guo Daxia and the martial arts heroes within Xiangyang City to defend against the Jin army together!"

Yao Yue Yun said very loudly toward Guo Jing and the martial artists behind Guo Jing.

After hearing Yao Yue Yun's words, Guo Jing and the martial artists behind him became excited one after another.

Although they said with their mouths that they were holding on in Xiangyang City for themselves and for the brothers and sisters who died on this battlefield.

But having experienced so many things, yet never seeing any action from the Northern Song imperial court.

This still made them feel a chill in their hearts toward the Northern Song imperial court.

After all, no matter what, Xiangyang City ultimately belonged to the imperial court.

If they were bleeding on the battlefield here while the imperial court took no action, it was indeed somewhat unjustifiable.

Now, when they heard Yao Yue Yun say that they were sent by the imperial court, it would make the martial artists who had been holding on outside Xiangyang City and resisting the Jin army feel better in their hearts.

At least they would not feel that their fallen brothers had sacrificed in vain; after all, the imperial court still remembered them!

Looking at the joy in the eyes of Guo Jing and the others, Yao Yue Yun could not help but curse in his heart:

"Damn imperial court, you only have good generals like my father!"

"If it weren't for my father, you would have been finished long ago!"

After venting the dissatisfaction in his heart, Yao Yue Yun continued to say to Guo Jing:

"Guo Daxia, after this period of hard fighting, you and the martial arts brothers behind you must be exhausted, right?!"

"Today, we not only brought an army to help you, but also brought quite a lot of grain and supplies!"

"Enough to support everyone in Xiangyang City for two months!"

"Everyone, hurry up and fill your stomachs first! Only then will you have the strength to kill more Jin soldiers in the next battle!"

Hearing Yao Yue Yun's words, a glimmer of light appeared in Guo Jing's eyes.

"Good!! Good!!! Good!!! That's great!"

"General Yue, you came just in time!"

Guo Jing said excitedly toward Yao Yue Yun.

At this moment, Guo Jing was very excited; after all, in their current situation in Xiangyang City, what they lacked most were helpers, time, and grain.

The army Yao Yue Yun brought solved the problem of helpers, so that for a period of time, Yao Yue Yun and his twenty thousand Yue Family Army could defend Xiangyang City first, which gave Guo Jing and the martial artists behind him a chance to catch their breath.

With this precious time, they could use it to replenish their internal energy.

When the martial arts experts of the Earth Immortal Realm like Guo Jing, Yang Guo, Lu Wushuang, Xuzhu, Duan Yu, and Qiao Feng recovered their breath.

Then, relying on their strength alone, it would be enough to resist the Jin Dynasty's offensive for a while.

And as long as their internal energy recovered, they would no longer be afraid of the Golden Wheel Dharma King's sneak attacks!

So Yao Yue Yun's arrival directly solved the problems of helpers and time, and the last and most fatal problem, food, was also completely put to rest for Guo Jing after Yao Yue Yun said this.

And the martial artists behind Guo Jing, upon hearing that there was food, were even more moved.

After all, in Xiangyang City, especially in the recent period, after the Jin army blockaded Xiangyang City.

They had not been full for a long time; now, upon hearing that Yao Yue Yun had brought food, they all became a bit excited.

"Food!!! Finally, there is food!!!"

"Damn, when did I become so pathetic that I'm this excited just hearing there's food!"

"Hmph, if I could have been full earlier, I would definitely have been able to kill a few more Jin dogs on the battlefield!"

Hearing what the martial artists said, even Yao Yue Yun was a bit amazed.

Just from this point, Yao Yue Yun knew how much these tough men of the Wu Lin before his eyes had suffered when he had not arrived.

They could not even solve the most basic problem of filling their stomachs.

After Guo Jing and Yao Yue Yun exchanged pleasantries for a while, Guo Jing brought Yao Yue Yun and the twenty thousand Yue Family Army behind Yao Yue Yun into Xiangyang City.

After all, there was not much time to waste now; in Guo Jing's heart, the most important thing now was to let the martial arts brothers behind him eat their fill.

And then have a good sleep to restore the internal energy in their bodies.

Only in this way could they restore the fighting power of their side in Xiangyang City to the maximum extent!

Southern Song, Lin'an.

Song Gao Zong looked at the battle report in his hand, and his body could not help but tremble.

"Damn it!!!! That treacherous villain Zhao Ji!!! Simply a scoundrel!!!"

Song Gao Zong Zhao Gou could not help but shout.

"I kindly withdrew my troops, and this Zhao Ji not only didn't know how to thank me, but actually took the opportunity to lead the Great Tang army to bite me back!!!"

"Good!!! Truly good!!!"

Song Gao Zong Zhao Gou's eyes already had a scarlet color at this moment; he was completely ignited by the information on the battle report.

The reason Song Gao Zong Zhao Gou was so angry was that, according to the battle report, when their Southern Song army was returning from the Northern Song to the Southern Song, the Northern Song and Great Tang armies had actually been ambushing them within the territory of the Northern Song.

By the time the Southern Song army successfully withdrew from the Northern Song and reached the Southern Song border, sixty percent of the soldiers had died on the way of the retreat!

You must know that before, in order to swallow the Northern Song in one breath, Zhao Gou had transferred all the troops he could mobilize out of the Northern Song.

So the sixty percent of soldiers who died during the retreat were all his, Zhao Gou's, capital for establishing his foundation.

After the anger in Zhao Gou's heart slowly faded and his mind became clear, a trace of regret suddenly rose in Zhao Gou's heart.

"Was my decision to crusade against the Northern Song correct or incorrect?"

Zhao Gou could not help but think in his heart.
