Chapter 524

"What?"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked and stood up from their chairs.

Guo Jing looked at the soldier and asked with a solemn expression: "Have you found out how many people they have?"

The soldier swallowed his saliva, and a trace of fear appeared on his face: "According to the scout's estimate, there are at least 150,000!"

"150,000 troops?!"

Hearing this number,

not only Guo Jing, but the faces of the two generals Zhang Shun and Zhang Gui also turned ugly.

The Xiangyang City garrison had at most 100,000 troops.

However,

over the years, the Xiangyang garrison and the Mongol soldiers have fought more than a dozen times. Although Xiangyang City relied on the danger of the city walls to cause the Mongol Yuan army to lose 60,000 to 70,000 troops, the Xiangyang garrison had also shrunk from the original 100,000 to more than 70,000.

And these 70,000-plus soldiers also included those wounded.

If the Mongol army really sent 150,000 troops this time, then even with Huang Yaoshi and a group of Jianghu heroes, it might not be possible to hold Xiangyang City.

Even if it were held in the end,

how many of these 70,000-plus garrison soldiers could survive?

After a brief silence,

someone could not help but speak:

"This Mongol Yuan Kingdom hasn't even unified its own internal tribes, yet it dares to send so many people to attack our Xiangyang City. Has this Mongol Khan gone crazy?!"

"Hmph! Who cares! Anyway, I didn't plan to leave this Xiangyang City alive when I came!"

"Right, killing one is enough, killing two is a profit!"

"..."

Looking at the indignant crowd,

Guo Jing did not stop them.

To tell the truth,

over the years, he himself had a belly full of anger.

However,

as the City Lord of Xiangyang City, he naturally could not be like the others; he had to think for the countless people of Xiangyang City.

Thinking of this,

Guo Jing looked at Huang Yaoshi: "Senior Huang, do you have any good ideas~~?"

Looking at Guo Jing, who was still calm and composed despite facing such a predicament, Huang Yaoshi could not help but sigh that Guo Jing had really grown a lot over the years.

He remembered when he first met the other party here, he was still a simple and upright hairy boy.

However,

facing an army of 150,000, even he had no way.

Therefore,

facing Guo Jing's expectant eyes, Huang Yaoshi still shook his head helplessly: "No."

So many people,

even if they stood there and let him kill them, he wouldn't be able to finish killing them in a day and a night.

The strength of the half-step Spirit-Wandering Realm,

although it can affect the battlefield, it is only so much.

After thinking for a while, Huang Yaoshi stood up and said: "Let's go to the city wall to see the situation first."

Actually,

at this moment, Huang Yaoshi was a little suspicious in his heart.

After all, before when he was in Xueyue City, Sikong Changfeng told him personally that although the Golden Wheel Dharma King escaped from his hands, the other party had suffered not-light injuries when he escaped, and if he didn't have three to five months of recuperation, it would be impossible to fully recover.

According to reason, under such circumstances,

the Golden Wheel Dharma King should not support the Mongol army attacking Xiangyang City.

Huang Yaoshi didn't believe that the Golden Wheel Dharma King wouldn't know about his presence in Xiangyang City.

Since he knew,

the other party should understand even more that as long as he was there, then even if Xiangyang City were broken in the end, their Mongol soldiers themselves would definitely suffer heavy losses.

Could it be that

Brother Sikong is also a person who cares about face?

Actually, the Golden Wheel Dharma King wasn't injured?

Or the Golden Wheel Dharma King had some miraculous medicine in his hands that could cure the injuries on his body in a short time.

Huang Yaoshi thought about it and found that only this reason could explain why the Mongol Yuan Kingdom would suddenly send a large force to attack Xiangyang City.

Soon,

Huang Yaoshi and Guo Jing led everyone to the city wall.

Guo Jing glanced outside the city, then turned his gaze to the scout who sent the message and asked: ".... How long will it take for the Mongol army to arrive here?"

"It only takes about half an hour!"

As the scout spoke,

the atmosphere on the city wall suddenly became exceptionally heavy and oppressive.

Time was too tight,

so tight that Zhang Shun and Zhang Gui didn't even have time to flip through the Wu Mu Legacy Book, let alone apply the military strategy in it to the army.

Whoosh—

The wind began to rise,

as if sensing that war was coming, the originally clear sky began to turn gloomy.

On the city wall,

no one spoke anymore, everyone looked at the horizon in the distance with solemn expressions, quietly waiting for the arrival of the Mongol soldiers.

At the same time,

in the Mongol Yuan camp.

The Golden Wheel Dharma King's face was pale, his aura was withered, and even though he had returned to Mongol Yuan, the horror in his eyes had not completely dissipated.

And Darba was the same,

if it weren't for his master not abandoning him even at the critical moment, he probably wouldn't have been able to come back.

Xueyue City,

not to be trifled with!

The master and disciple both had this thought in their hearts at the same time.

A moment later,

Darba looked at the Golden Wheel Dharma King and asked with an incomprehensible expression: "Master, now that you have suffered such heavy injuries, why do you still want our army to attack Xiangyang City?"

Chapter 251: Didn't Plan to Attack Xiangyang City?

In Darba's view,

although Xiangyang City is inferior to the Mongol Yuan Kingdom in terms of military strength, there are a group of righteous Jianghu heroes from the Great Song Jianghu helping in Xiangyang City, so even if 180,000 soldiers were sent to attack Xiangyang City this time, it is not certain that they could take Xiangyang City.

Moreover,

before when attacking Xiangyang City,

although Master didn't go to the front line every time, even if he didn't go himself, he would arrange for many experts under his command to go together.

However, this time,

besides the 180,000 soldiers, there was only one Carefree Heaven Realm expert, Nimoxing.

And hearing Darba's words,

the Golden Wheel Dharma King could not help but sigh in his heart.

He had only taken three disciples in his life. If he were to say which one he was most satisfied with, it would definitely be his eldest disciple, but if he were to say which disciple he liked the most, it was still his second disciple, Darba, who had always followed by his side.
