Chapter 525
It's a pity that,
140 the eldest disciple was intelligent, but died young.
And Dalba has a loyal and honest personality, and his way of doing things is deeply liked by him, but his martial arts talent is mediocre, and he cannot inherit his mantle at all.
As for the third disciple, Huo Du,
in Jinlun Fawang's heart, he already regretted taking the other party as a disciple.
"Dalba, do you think there are any scouts planted by Xiangyang City in our camp?"
"Scouts?"
Looking at Dalba's puzzled expression, Jinlun Fawang explained directly: "The news of my return should have already reached Xiangyang City."
"And Huang Yaoshi is one of the Five Greats of the Great Song Jianghu. Even at my peak, I would definitely not be his opponent. So, if he knows that I am seriously injured, then for the sake of Xiangyang City, he might very well put aside his face and come to assassinate (bbee) me."
Like Guo Jing,
Jinlun Fawang was also worried that Huang Yaoshi would take advantage of his serious injury to deal with him and other Mongol Yuan experts.
"Since that's the case, then Master, you shouldn't have sent the army out; you should have kept them all to protect yourself."
Hearing that Huang Yaoshi might take advantage of Master's serious injury to deal with Master, Dalba panicked.
In Dalba's heart,
Master's safety always comes first; as for whether the Mongol army can take Xiangyang City, he doesn't care.
"Can't block him."
Jinlun Fawang shook his head:
"Now Huang Yaoshi is only one step away from the Spirit-Wandering Mystic Realm, and you have seen the strength of the Spirit-Wandering Mystic Realm before. Although our Mongol Yuan soldiers are brave, in the face of absolute strength, they can't play any role at all. Even if Huang Yaoshi comes, they might not even discover him."
Dalba heard this,
nodded half-understandingly, but he still couldn't connect Huang Yaoshi with Master's order to attack Xiangyang City.
Jinlun Fawang looked at Dalba:
"The reason I did this is just to drag Huang Yaoshi down so he wouldn't dare to leave Xiangyang City easily."
"But Master, you are not there. If that Huang Yaoshi were to slaughter, even if we could take Xiangyang City, we would definitely suffer heavy losses. For the sake of a Xiangyang City, losing tens of thousands of our Mongol warriors, disciple thinks it's not worth it no matter how I think about it."
"Don't worry."
Jinlun Fawang smiled gently: "This battle won't happen."
"Won't happen?"
Dalba scratched his head and looked at Jinlun Fawang with a puzzled expression: "Master, you mean... you didn't plan to attack Xiangyang City this time?"
"Hmm."
Jinlun Fawang nodded: "Taking Xiangyang City is just a matter of time. As the National Teacher, I naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to sacrifice a large number of troops to forcibly take Xiangyang City at this time."
"Then what if Xiangyang City takes the initiative to attack?"
"So this time I let Princess Princess Huazheng go together."
Jinlun Fawang smiled: "With Princess Princess Huazheng there, this battle will definitely not happen."
Speaking of Princess Princess Huazheng,
Jinlun Fawang also felt a bit helpless in his heart. Xiangyang City has not been broken for a long time, and it also has something to do with Princess Huazheng.
Princess Huazheng is the daughter of Temujin, the current Khan of the Mongol Yuan Kingdom. In her childhood, she almost lost her life in the mouth of a fierce beast, but fortunately, she was saved by Guo Jing, who happened to pass by.
Since then,
Princess Huazheng and Guo Jing grew up together, which can be considered childhood sweethearts, and Princess Huazheng gradually fell in love with this Guo Jing, who was not much older than her but dared to save her from the mouth of a fierce beast.
Thus,
Princess Huazheng told Temujin about this.
Although Guo Jing is from the Great Song, he grew up in the Mongol Yuan tribe since childhood, and he also saved a Mongol Yuan general, so Temujin also liked Guo Jing quite a bit.
Upon hearing his daughter say she liked Guo Jing,
Temujin didn't even think and directly set an engagement for Princess Huazheng and Guo Jing.
However,
later because of various reasons,
Guo Jing went south and returned to the Great Song Dynasty, while Princess Huazheng stayed in the Mongol Yuan Kingdom.
However,
Princess Huazheng clearly hadn't forgotten Guo Jing, even if Guo Jing had now become the City Lord of Xiangyang City.
Chapter 252: Are You Planning to Hide From Me for a Lifetime!
And the reason why the Mongol Yuan army hadn't been able to take Xiangyang City for a long time also had to do with Temujin still wanting to give Guo Jing, this prospective son-in-law, a chance.
Otherwise,
if Temujin had hardened his heart and directly called up hundreds of thousands of soldiers to attack Xiangyang City, then the current isolated Xiangyang City, even with Guo Jing and a group of Jianghu people like Huang Yaoshi, would definitely not be able to resist.
Dozens of Mongol armies couldn't take the Great Song Dynasty,
but breaking through a Xiangyang City was still no problem at all.
Xiangyang City,
"Coming!"
On the city wall, as Huang Yaoshi suddenly spoke, everyone tightened the weapons in their hands, looking outside the city with solemn expressions~.
At this time,
outside Xiangyang City,
under everyone's gaze, countless Mongol soldiers rolled in like dark clouds pressing on the city. Even though they were still some distance away, everyone could clearly hear the sound of horses' hooves like iron bones hitting each other.
In just a moment,
the Mongol Yuan army marched to a distance of dozens of feet outside Xiangyang City and stopped, their movements neat and uniform, their momentum magnificent!
Looking at the Mongol soldiers with neighing warhorses and fluttering flags under the city wall, everyone cast their gazes toward Guo Jing in unison, even Huang Yaoshi was no exception.
As long as Guo Jing gave the order, they would definitely kill outside the city without hesitation!
At this time,
Guo Jing stood on the city wall holding a long sword, his divine power awe-inspiring.
However,
he didn't intend to take the initiative to attack. Now the enemy is many and we are few, and the terrain outside the city is flat, so fighting the Mongol soldiers clearly wouldn't be advantageous.
And as the City Lord of Xiangyang City, he must think for the countless people in the city.
If he could persuade the Mongol Yuan to retreat, that would naturally be the best.
Many years ago, the Great Song Dynasty had formed an alliance with the Mongol Yuan to destroy the Jin Kingdom together. Although later, due to various reasons, the relationship between the two sides broke down, in Guo Jing's view, it was not impossible for the two sides to continue to cooperate.
After all, the various tribes within the Mongol Yuan have not yet been unified, and the Jin Kingdom has not yet been destroyed.
Thinking of this,
he looked outside the city, wanting to speak.
However,
just at this moment,
a crisp voice came from outside the city first.
"Guo Jing, you come out!"
SWISH!!!
Everyone's expressions froze,
and the next second, they all looked in the direction of the voice.
The two armies were about to fight, and at this moment, such a gentle voice suddenly came out, directly breaking the originally heavy and oppressive atmosphere on the city wall.
And Guo Jing, upon hearing this voice, felt his body tremble.
This voice,
he couldn't be more familiar with it.
Looking at Princess Huazheng, who was slowly walking out from the Mongol army with a complex expression, Guo Jing couldn't help but say: "Hua... Princess Huazheng sister, why did you come over?"
Perhaps because she grew up on horseback, Princess Huazheng looked stronger than the average woman, and there was a trace of heroism between her brows.
Princess Huazheng looked up at Guo Jing standing on the city wall, unable to help but reveal a trace of excitement in her eyes, but then thinking of the other party leaving without saying goodbye back then, and it had been so many years, she felt as if she had suffered a great grievance.
