Chapter 448

It was a coincidence.

The reason why Huang Yaoshi knew about the Heaven-Reliant Sword and Dragon-Slaying Saber was because of Guo Jing and Xiangyang City.

In recent years,

the Great Song Dynasty and the Mongol Yuan Kingdom had been in constant conflict.

The Mongol Yuan Kingdom had been trying to take Xiangyang City and had even sent troops to attack the city several times.

Fortunately, in Xiangyang City, there were a group of Jianghu righteous people led by Guo Jing, who barely managed to hold off the Jin army's invasion.

However,

although the Mongol Yuan Kingdom was not an imperial dynasty, its imperial court's military strength and Jianghu forces were not weaker than an ordinary imperial dynasty.

Seeing Jianghu forces intervening in Xiangyang City, how could the Mongol Yuan Kingdom tolerate it? They also summoned many Jianghu people within the kingdom, preparing to use the same method to contain the Jianghu people in Xiangyang City.

Actually,

if that were the case,

Xiangyang City, as an important city of the Great Song Dynasty, wouldn't need to worry too much about the Mongol Yuan Kingdom.

However, what made people helpless was,

the current Great Song imperial court was mostly dominated by treacherous officials, and the Great Song Dynasty had always valued literature over martial arts, so there were mostly civil officials in the court. Even if there were a few military generals, most of them had no real power.

This led to the fact that as an imperial dynasty, it was forced to be breathless by a kingdom, and even had to rely on Jianghu forces to barely hold onto Luoyang City.

But this was not a long-term solution after all.

After all, if the Mongol Yuan Kingdom were to become ruthless and deploy more troops, then even if Guo Jing and other Jianghu forces were there, it would probably not have much effect.
