Apprentice of the Heavens

Chapter 53
Datong House

A Mongolian soldier yawned and looked out of the city in a daze, sighed and muttered:

"Hey, why hasn't the shift been changed yet? Hey, what is that?"

Suddenly a row of black lines appeared on the horizon. The soldier rubbed his eyes and looked carefully. He saw the black line slowly rising from the horizon. The soldier took out the horn on his waist and blew it.
Woo! ! ! !

At this time, the sky was hazy, Li Ming looked at the big city ahead, waved his big hand, a dull horn sounded, and with the sound of war drums, gun carriages were pushed out

"Adjust the angle, 123!"

Hundreds of artillery fired at the city wall. In an instant, a big gap was blasted into the low-level city wall, and the city tower was blown to pieces. The Mongolian army just heard the horn and was about to get up to take their weapons. Lei Gungun couldn't help but start to panic and run around.

Li Ming looked at the huge gap in the city wall, and the big Xia sparrow came out of its sheath.
"Army attack"

The trumpet is blowing again, the drums are beating more urgently
The sound of horseshoes sounded, and the sound of marching footsteps resounded all over the field. First, the cavalry arrived at the gap first, and jumped into the city with their horses. At this time, the Mongolian army was still in panic. dust settled

This battle may have been easy, but the main reason was that the Mongolian army was caught off guard, and Datong Mansion was not a big city, but the artillery blasted open the gap.

Inside the Santo's Mansion
At this time, the blood on the ground had been cleaned up. Li Ming looked at a map on the table. The writing brush circled Taiyuan Mansion and the entire Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, just to isolate the outside of the Great Wall and the Central Plains, and cut off the retreat route of the Mongolian army. .

"At this time, the Mongolian army has not noticed the fall of Datong. Meng Qi, you lead 10 people to take Taiyuan as soon as possible, and then take Fengxiang Mansion."

"The last will listen to orders"

Meng Qi is the commander-in-chief of the White Tiger Army, a handsome talent dug out by Li Ming, so he naturally believes in his ability, not to mention that the large troops of the Mongolian Army are all in Xiangyang City, and there must not be many defenders in Taiyuan

As Meng Qi left with his troops, Li Ming left 5000 troops to guard the Datong Mansion, and then led the remaining soldiers and horses to sweep across the Sixteen States of Yanyun. In less than half a month, the entire Sixteen States of Yanyun It has become the territory of Great Xia, and Meng Qi has also successfully captured Taiyuan Mansion, Yan'an Mansion, and the former Jin Kingdom Zhongdu, etc., and is now attacking Zhongjing
Being one with Xixia completely cut off the retreat of the Mongolian army. With the dispatch of [-] Qinglong troops to guard the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, the Mongolian army on the grassland will not even think about crossing the thunder pool.
Without the support of the Mongolian army on the prairie, the sea is to the east, the Great Xia to the west and the Song Dynasty to the south. The Mongolian army that has penetrated into the Central Plains has become a lone army.
The first phase of the goal has been completed
Xiangyang City

At this time, in Xiangyang City, there was constant shouting and killing on the battlefield. The Chinese army commanded by Shuchi was constantly attacking Xiangyang City. With catapults, battering rams, and ladders, it seemed that Xiangyang City was about to be breached under various siege methods. , but Song Jun still stood firm as if he was not afraid of life and death,

On the city wall, Guo Jing hacked to death the Mongolian army who had climbed up the ladder, followed by Long Yin and pushed out the ladder with his palm, and the ladder was instantly damaged. Jun, with a bit of bitterness on the corner of his mouth, looked around the Song Jun who was fighting bravely on the city wall, and forced his spirit to continue fighting
Suddenly a loud horn sounded across the entire battlefield, and the Mongolian army under the city wall retreated orderly like a tide. The people on the city wall couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and their whole bodies collapsed to the ground. Guo Jing couldn't help but relax when he saw the retreating Mongolian army. tone, but my heart was full of doubts. After thinking for a long time, I still had no idea, so I shook my head helplessly, staggered down the tower and returned to the beggar gang's resident to recharge my batteries.

Huazheng and Cheng Yaojia were directing the logistics work. Seeing that Guo Jing had returned safely, they couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and hurried over to help Guo Jing to the bed

"Brother Guo, are you okay?"

"It's okay, just take a rest"

Guo Jing shook his head and said, he fell asleep after he finished speaking, although he was not injured after killing the enemy all day and night, he was too tired
This sleep went straight to the evening, and only woke up under Hua Zheng's call. He opened his eyes in a daze and looked at Hua Zheng.
"Hua Zheng, is the Mongolian army attacking the city again?"

After saying that, he wanted to get up and go out, but was stopped by Hua Zheng

"The Mongolian army didn't attack the city, they just told you to get up and eat."

Guo Jing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, I'm really hungry too, let's go and eat."

After finishing speaking, he took Huazheng's small hand and walked all the way to the hall

During the dinner, the two girls looked at Guo Jing who was wolfing down their stomachs, and couldn't help but feel distressed, and they gave him food again and again. At this moment, a disheveled beggar hurried in.
"Master, there is news"

"Have you found out?"

Guo Jing stopped the chopsticks in his hand, and looked eagerly at the disciples of the Beggar Clan. Lu Youjiao didn't give a damn, and told all the information he had found out.
After hearing this, Guo Jing and the three froze in place.

"So, the Mongolian army outside the city has become a lone army?"

Chen Yaojia and Hua Zheng looked at Lu Youjiao in disbelief, but the news was too surprising, and Guo Jing also looked at Lu Youjiao as if confirming the authenticity of the news

"Guild Master, it is indeed true. A disciple of the Beggar Clan from the Northland saw it with his own eyes."

Guo Jing frowned slightly, thought for a long time and said: "Elder Lu, you continue to send people to monitor the movements of the Mongolian army in case they jump the wall in a hurry."

"Yes, this subordinate will go now"

Said that he wanted Lu Youjiao, so he hurried down to tell the disciples of the Beggars' Clan

The three people in the hall looked at each other and laughed happily.
Mongolian army camp
At this moment, the blood on the ground is still warm, even though he just killed someone, Jochi is still furious
"Trash, a bunch of trash"

With a ferocious face, Shuchi drew out his scimitar and slashed it on the table. After more than a dozen cuts, he sat down on the fur chair and stared at the map on the table. In the middle of the territory, I couldn't help but feel anxious, gnashing my teeth
The next day

Looking at the deserted Mongolian army camp, Guo Jing and the others in Xiangyang City couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, laughing and laughing on the city wall for a while.

Zhongjing Luoyang
Li Ming overlooked this famous ancient city from the top of the city tower. Today's Luoyang City is just a part of Luoyang City in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Only a small portion.

In the distance, you can vaguely see some buildings from the Sui and Tang Dynasties Luoyang City, but most of them have been seriously damaged.

Li Ming looked at the direction of Xiangyang, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up. Shuchi should know the news, and he is probably coming to Luoyang in a hurry.

Next, let's fight to decide the world

Just as Li Ming thought, Jochi is now heading towards Luoyang with an army of 25.
