Start: Datang Wanli a lonely city

Chapter 616 The second phase of the task is coming
Time: The second year of Kaiqing in the Southern Song Dynasty.

No, Kaiqing was used by Emperor Lizong of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Yun, for only one year and then stopped using it. This year, another new year name was changed.

At the same time, it is also the eighth and last reign name he used in his reign: Jingding.

Good guy!The speed of changing year names is simply faster than that of some scumbags in the modern world who change girlfriends.

It took Zhao Yun five years to determine the year name of Jing, until he died.

Then, even if he was dead, he was dug out from the grave, and a skull bowl was made with the skull, which was given to the ruler of Mongolian Yuan for use.

It was not until about a hundred years later that Zhu Chongba captured Yuan Dadu in the Northern Expedition, and found this skull bowl in the Mengyuan Palace, so that the unlucky Zhao Yun was reburied with the emperor's ceremony.

Of course, the above things are not important to Hu Biao and the others at present.

The important thing is that in the first year of Jingding in the Southern Song Dynasty, on the second day of February, when the dragon raised its head, Hu Biao and the others felt something different from the information passed back in the past few days.

More specifically, it should be after the grandson of the system made some changes behind the scenes.

The current situation on the battlefield in Xiangyang City is quite different from the plot of the novel, and it can even be said that it has changed beyond recognition...

"What the hell! The Meng people's military strength is not right, why are there so many people?"

In his left hand, he holds a copy of the information that summarizes the composition of the Mongolian army and the current strength of Xiangyang City, and carefully looks at it in front of his eyes; his right hand is habitually groping for the short stubble on his chin.

At the same time, when Hu Biao uttered the above sentence, he muttered in confusion and confusion.

The expression of the whole person seemed to be a little undecided.

The reason why Hu Biao has such an expression is that in the original "Sculpture of Gods" novel, there is no detailed description of the composition of the Mongolian army's attack on the Song Dynasty this time, but it is just a brief summary.

That is to say, in the above sentence, the Mongols had a total of two armies to attack the Song Dynasty.
One army was led by the emperor's younger brother, Kublai Khan, and began to go north after destroying Dali; the other army, led by the Mongolian Great Khan Meng Ge, began to go south all the way.

Such two armies of elite soldiers, each with hundreds of thousands of people, will eventually meet under the city of Xiangyang.

Therefore, according to the novel, the Mongolian army under the city of Xiangyang should only have 10 people under the circumstances that Brother Meng has not yet arrived.

Results?That's not the case at all.

According to the investigation of intelligence personnel, there are as many as 7 soldiers and horses in the Mongol headquarters under the city of Xiangyang;

In addition, there are [-] servant cavalry troops composed of Jurchen, Xixia people, Khitan people and other northern ethnic groups.

Composed of Han people in the north, the infantry called the Han Army by the Mongolians has a total of 6 people.

Not counting some of the surrendered Song Army in the rear, that is, the logistics and supply troops known as the New Attached Army, the Mongolian side is now just a Northern Route Army.

The strength of troops under the city of Xiangyang has now reached as many as 15.

As for the defensive force in Xiangyang City, there are 2000 Song soldiers under Lu Wenhuan.

In addition, there are probably 6000 Jianghu heroes headed by Guo Jing and Huang Rong; among them, the disciples of the Beggar Gang account for almost half of the number.

By the way, there are still more than [-] people in the city. They have long known the virtues of the Mongols, and they naturally understand what will happen if the city is broken.

Presumably, when the battle is fierce, they will also support the defenders in the city, which can be regarded as a force that cannot be ignored.

Based on all the above, what Hu Biao is now puzzled about is that he didn't wait until Mengge arrived, as in the original plot, and then Mengmeng attacked the city on a large scale.

On the contrary, in the last two days, there have been some signs of a large-scale siege.

In this way, for Hu Biao and his Xuan Ge battalion hiding outside the battlefield, a series of problems appeared.

For example, in the face of the strengthened Mongolian army attacking the city, can Guo Jing and the others hold it?

Also, with support soldiers like them, should they be dispatched immediately, or should they wait for a while and wait and see the situation first?
And will this kind of wait-and-see cause huge losses to Xiangyang City?

In short, the above thoughts are constantly wandering in Hu Biao's head, making him a little hesitant now...

Before Hu Biao could come up with a specific decision, he suddenly hit his forehead lightly with a 'slap~', and then a very nervous and confident voice sounded:
"Sit up straight and don't move!

Let me tell you, if this hairstyle gets cut again later, it can't be blamed on my poor craftsmanship, but your moving around and affecting my performance. "

This one is a little nervous, with a clear and sweet voice, and the owner is a girl, the imperial concubine.

Let her say such a sentence, the current specific background is:

While Hu Biao was holding the intelligence research in his hand, he sat on a stool that was directly used as a wooden pier, and a piece of cotton cloth that was not too big was wrapped around his chin.

In the position behind him is the noble concubine.

In the hands of the imperial concubine, she holds a comb in her left hand and a pair of scissors in her right hand.

He shook the ponytail behind him from time to time, and after looking at Hu Biao's head for a while, he started to "Kaka~" and put a few scissors on Sipujie's hair, cutting off a bunch of broken hair.

This posture can be said to tell at a glance that the imperial concubine is cutting Hu Biao's hair.

Talk!On the second day of February, the dragon raises its head.

It is said that if you get a haircut today, you will have good luck in the next year. Therefore, according to the custom, it is very common for Hu Biao to get a haircut.

Hu Biao couldn't reach it by himself, so he asked his comrade-in-arms, the imperial concubine, to help him cut his hair.
It is also very normal, and there is nothing much to say at all.

However, there are still some things worth mentioning, probably in the form of two points.

On the one hand, I don't know if it's because I'm worried that the broken hair falling from Hu Biao's head will get all over my clothes, and I won't clean it up well.

Anyway, in today's season, it's just the beginning of spring, and the current temperature is only eighty-nine degrees.

But at this time, this girl was wearing a short skirt and a tight T-shirt, showing her big white legs wearing black socks, and a small belly button, drawing out a deep abyss and so on.

So much so that whenever Hu Biao lost his mind for a moment, he would vaguely feel that he is now in the modern plane, and a certain high-end hair studio is being cut by a beautiful hair stylist.

Fortunately, the imperial concubine only dressed like this in the room.

When going out, I still put on a coat because I am afraid of the cold.

Otherwise, such an appearance will fall into the eyes of many heroes in the world, and I am afraid that their bodies that have eaten meat recently will become malnourished.

There is no way!These days, the witches of the Demon Cult are all dressed more tightly than the concubine.

On the other hand, after a minute or two, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open.

After Yang Dongli and Yuan Hai walked in together, after seeing the posture of Hu Biao and the two of them, they naturally understood what they were doing now.

Yang Dongli immediately took off the flying saucer-shaped helmet on his head.

While scratching his scalp, he shouted in his mouth:

"I didn't expect a little fairy like the imperial concubine to know how to cut hair? I said it earlier, I don't need Xu Feng to cut my hair like a dog last time, which seriously affected my buddy's appearance. up.

I'll line up. After Hu Biao finishes cutting, please cut one for me too.

But for my hairstyle, I don’t need to cut Hu Biao’s bald head, just trim it a little bit and shorten it to highlight my handsome facial features~”

Although Yuan Hai, a rookie, didn't say anything, the swift action of taking off his helmet already showed what this guy had in mind.

Of course, they lined up to let a beautiful girl like the imperial concubine cut her hair.

It's not like they hold the arrows themselves, or let the rough men of the team take the scissors and cut them randomly and snatch them away.

If there is any pity, it is that we cannot add an hour and some value-added services.

Of course, here I mean massaging a head, shoulders, back, etc., the completely serious one.

The amazing thing is that after hearing the words from Yang Dongli's mouth, the concubine's face immediately turned black, as if she was extremely embarrassed.

And Hu Biao didn't know what he thought of, and laughed out loud on the spot.

After laughing for a while, he told the reason to the bewildered Yang Dongli:
"When I first cut my hair, I also told Mrs. Tony, no! It should be Mrs. Guifei who said, just a little trimming, a simple styling is all right.

As a result, I was cutting and cutting, and Teacher Guifei said that I accidentally cut a little bit off, so why don't I take care of the broken hair?
The hairstyle of broken hair is more suitable for my temperament, and I agreed at the time.

It took less than 2 minutes for me to agree, and she told me very seriously that in fact, a boy with a short haircut is quite energetic.

And just 1 minute before you pushed the door in, she told me that my hair shape is quite suitable for a bald head~”

Under Hu Biao's statement, Yang Dongli and Yuan Hai were stunned for a while before they realized what Hu Biao meant.

Then, just like Hu Biao, he laughed out loud like a pig.

Seeing this kind of laughter, the noble concubine was very annoyed at first, but after thinking of something, she also laughed out loud.

Therefore, let such a dragon look up on the second day of February in the first year of Jingding, and there will be more cheerful laughter...

******
After the group laughed for a while, Hu Biao finally remembered that in today's busy overall atmosphere, Yang Dongli and Yuan Hai came together, there should be something wrong.

Immediately, he asked, "Old Yang, Yuan Hai, what's the matter with you two?"

After hearing such a sentence, when Yang Dongli and Yuan Hai thought of their purpose of coming, the smiles on their faces disappeared immediately.

Yuan Hai took out a stacked piece of paper from his pocket and handed it over.

He also began to speak in his mouth: "The Mongol army under the city of Xiangyang should start attacking the city soon, and it will attack with all its strength, not the feint attack like before.

Because according to the latest information just sent by the heroes outside the city.

In the Mongolian army, a group of green-eyed Semu people were recently sent, and a strange siege machine appeared with them.

Those heroes of the rivers and lakes don't know what this kind of equipment is called.

However, they drew a rough pattern, and it was quite clear what this thing was. "

Sure enough, after opening that piece of paper, Hu Biao just glanced at the crooked pattern on it and figured out what it was.

What the hell!Isn't this the famous return cannon?
Although in the serious history, it will take more than ten years for this kind of counterweight trebuchet to appear under the city of Xiangyang.

Relying on the relatively good power of this thing, and Semuren's ability to calculate the trajectory, the stone can hit the city wall accurately.

The Mongols, relying on the return artillery for many days, finally smashed the solid city wall of Xiangyang City, causing the most important border city in the Southern Song Dynasty to fall.

In the end, it led to the complete demise of this one place in the south of the Yangtze River, which lasted for a total of 152 years.

But this mission is in the world of martial arts, and the grandson of the system is secretly adjusting it; so there is such a thing as the return gun, and the fact that it is actually reasonable or unreasonable is no longer important.

The important thing is that Hu Biao knew that these return guns must be destroyed, as well as the personnel who operated the return guns.

Otherwise, the strong city defense that Xiangyang City relied on most would be smashed to pieces bit by bit by the Mongolians; I am afraid that with Guo Jing and a group of heroes from all walks of life guarding it, it will not last long.

That is to say, there is no need to worry about whether they need to send troops immediately in the Xuan Ge Battalion, and they must send troops immediately.

Such an idea was decided in Hu Biao's head.

The cold mechanical voice of the system, after almost three or four months, once again spoke to all the members of the Xuan Ge Camp team.

There are also five rookies including Mr. Nanze, Mu Ping, Yuan Hai, Watchdog, and Shi Polu, and a sound came from their heads:
"Congratulations to Commander Hu Biao, all members of the Xuange Battalion, and all the netizens who participated in this mission. The second stage of this mission is officially triggered.

Everyone, please pay attention to the following task requirements.

First, in the first year of Jingding in the Southern Song Dynasty, before midnight on March [-], it must be ensured that Xiangyang City would not fall into the hands of the Mongolians.

Or before this date, the Mongolian side voluntarily withdraws its troops.

Second, during the period of ensuring that Xiangyang City must be held, kill the current Mongolian Khan Mengge, or the emperor's younger brother Kublai Khan; one of the above two goals.

If both of them are killed, there will be some unknown situations.

Therefore, you may get extremely rich rewards, or you may get some unknown punishments; how to choose specifically, please let the team members hug me themselves.

Third, before March 2th, the entire Song defenders must kill or capture no less than 5 Mongols, and no less than [-] northern Han troops and servants.

The more specific kill numbers exceed the mission requirements, the more rewards there will be.

Fourth, in this mission, Guo Xiang must survive; and after the deadline is reached, Guo Xiang must be rescued from Jinlun Fawang.

If any of the above four requirements are not met, five people will be randomly killed as punishment.

If three or more items are not achieved, the mission will be directly declared a failure, and all surviving personnel will be wiped out.

And the relevant eradicated personnel shall not be revived after returning to the system space.

Friendly reminder, this stage of the mission is the last stage of this mission, the above mission requirements are met, or the mission fails, but there are still members of the Xuange Camp team and netizens surviving.

Survivors can immediately return to the system space.

If you want to stay longer, the time must not exceed two hours; after two hours, the survivors will be forcibly sent back.

In the end, I wish you all the best of luck and successful completion of your mission~"

After the above system prompt sounded in his head for about a minute, Hu Biao initially digested several of the requirements and some of the things behind them.

At the same time, it was also because of such a sudden triggering of the last mission that Hu Biao gave up the last illusion in his heart, and made up his mind to send troops immediately.

For this reason, Hu Biao took a look around and found that it was only a wooden house with an area of ​​fifteen or six square meters.

After realizing that this little place can't accommodate many people at all.

Facing Yang Dongli and Yuan Hai, he began to explain quickly: "Go and inform everyone in the team immediately, as well as Zhang Yimin and other representatives of the heroes, and immediately gather on the hill outside for a meeting."

Hearing this sentence, the two of them, who knew the seriousness of the matter, immediately picked up the helmets and went out; they never mentioned the matter of queuing up and asking the concubine teacher to help with a haircut.

Seeing this, the noble concubine also put down the comb and scissors, picked up a coat and prepared to go out.

This is to help inform together, try to save a few minutes, and a few more minutes to prepare.

But at this moment, Hu Biao stopped the girl who was in a hurry to go out, and pointed at his half-shaven head.

He yelled out: "What are you in a hurry for? Hurry up and cut off my bald head, and shave my beard by the way; if I go out with such an image, don't I want face and image like a great Hu Daxia?"

Only then did the concubine realize that she hadn't finished her work.

Unexpectedly, Hu Biao is quite clear-headed, and he is indeed the commander of the Xuange Battalion.

But I thought so in my heart, but I yelled in my mouth unconvinced: "Oh! Daxia Hu still needs to shave and pay attention to his image; do you want to add another hour to wash your hair and blow it? ~"

After hearing the words, Hu Biao blinked his eyes a little, and responded in his mouth: "There is no need to wash your hair, there is no time, or you can just blow it~"

Concubine: "...Okay."

Hu Biao: "...Fuck~"

Of course!The above is just that under the tense atmosphere, the two old drivers drove instinctively.

Otherwise, what else can you think?Hu Biao had his head shaved, and there is no hair dryer here, so it is impossible to blow his hair, right?

　PS: Just to clarify, I was suggested by another author friend a few days ago, saying that many book lovers will spontaneously assume the identity of the protagonist when they are reading a book, and we must create some anticipated plots for them.

　　After thinking about it, it still makes sense, so in the follow-up, there will be some plots of tearing socks in depth against the imperial concubine.

　　Regarding this point, the consent of the imperial concubine herself has been obtained in advance.

　　Another point that needs to be emphasized is that everything is limited to the fictional plot in the book; it has nothing to do with the imperial concubine herself in the real society.

　　Finally, I would like to thank the imperial concubine for her outstanding contribution to this book.
