Chapter 78 Where did the reinforcements go?

A strong man is in his twilight years, and a hero is at his end.

Lin Xuan didn't know how handsome Guo Jing was when he was young. There were only stories of him walking the rivers and lakes on TV, and there were few scenes of leading soldiers in battle, but thinking about it, he should be majestic and heroic.

But at this time Guo Jing was very old and his eyes were dull.

Perhaps the real Guo Jing died with the destruction of Xiangyang City, and what is alive now is just a shell.

"Uncle Guo, rest first, we will investigate the reinforcements and give Xiangyang City an explanation!" Yang Guo comforted Guo Jing.

Immediately, Guo Jing said: "We must give Xiangyang City an explanation!"

After that, Huang Rong and Guo Xiang stayed to take care of Guo Jing, while Yang Guo and Lin Xuan went to find the missing reinforcements.

"The court of the Great Song Dynasty has been corrupted to such a state. It is normal that the promised reinforcements will not come. Why does Guo Jing care so much?" Lin Xuan asked Yang Guo, a little confused while walking.

Immediately, Yang Guo shook his head and let out a long sigh.

Then he said: "Uncle Guo has been guarding Xiangyang City for decades. If there were reinforcements, how could it be possible to wait until now? In fact, he bought the reinforcements this time. For this matter, He even asked Yeluqi to spend all the gang property of the Beggar Gang!"

Lin Xuan was taken aback when he heard this.

"Although the imperial court is fatuous and corrupt, there are still some rules, such as the protection of officials and the exchange of interests." Yang Guo also said: "Uncle Guo originally didn't associate with those people, but in order to defend the Central Plains, he had no choice but to join them. With the help of official communication, and then give up some of the benefits, in order to stabilize the overall situation."

Lin Xuan was taken aback again.

It seems that the sacrifice Guo Jing himself made was far from being as simple as a few decades.

"This time when Kublai Khan came to attack, Uncle Guo spent all his wealth, plus the spontaneous donations from the people of Xiangyang, collected a large amount of military expenses, and reached an agreement with a father-in-law surnamed Liu in the court." Yang Guo continued. : "The two teamed up. Uncle Guo is responsible for restraining the high-end combat power, and Eunuch Liu is responsible for the sneak attack and support from behind. As long as the reinforcements arrive in time, Kublai Khan's army will almost certainly be defeated. Eunuch Liu will also get a big credit, get promoted and make a fortune."

Hearing this, Lin Xuan shook his head and said, "But that Eunuch Liu, he doesn't even have a shadow."

He doesn't understand official affairs, but anyone who is not too stupid can see through the exchange of interests: the reason why Guo Jing cares so much about this matter is that he bet everything on it is only one of the reasons, and more importantly, he really can't understand Liu Why doesn't the father-in-law come?

Unlike others, Eunuch Liu has a team of truly elite soldiers.

As long as he makes a move, victory will not be difficult.

"The credit for defeating Kublai Khan was the bait released by Uncle Guo. He expected that Eunuch Liu would never be able to refuse, but he didn't expect..." Yang Guo sighed at this point.

Although Guo Jing doesn't say that things are as good as gods, but he is familiar with Wu Mu's suicide note and has been stationed in Xiangyang for decades, his strategy is definitely one of the best in the world.

But unfortunately, this time, he gambled everything, but all he got was lost.

The obsession that never forgets when dying is not so much the reason why he couldn't find reinforcements, but rather the reason why he failed to find himself.He really couldn't understand why Eunuch Liu didn't come to eat the fat meat that was delivered to his mouth!

The two went all the way and went straight to the place where Eunuch Liu was stationed.

On the way, in the brothel, a group of young talents who are about to perish and don't know it, are reciting poems and fighting against each other.One of them, waving a folding fan, said: "Guo Jing is unparalleled in the world, and the heroes of the Beggar Clan are very capable, but if Xiangyang City is destroyed, those who cry for their father will cry for their father, and those who call for their mother will call for their mother."

Then a group of people laughed and continued to eat, play, and sleep with women...

"This is the literati of the Song Dynasty?" Lin Xuan was stunned.

And Yang Guo also said with a look of disappointment: "It's hopeless, it's really hopeless. Such a Central Plains is not worth our desperate protection. After this incident, I will take my wife back to the Tomb of the Living Dead in Zhongnan Mountain, and never die again." I can't come out!"

Lin Xuan could tell that he actually had the same chivalrous feelings as Guo Jing in his heart.

It's just that Yang Guo is not Guo Jing, he can't risk his life for the people he just met.

"Mom, forgive me for being more and more fond of killing." Lin Xuan said, throwing a high-explosive grenade in, and then left with Yang Guo, hiding his merit and fame.

After several searches, Lin Xuan and Yang Guo finally found that Eunuch Liu.

It's just the situation, something seems wrong.

Two young men, a man and a woman, were holding Eunuch Liu to the direction of the barracks.

It turned out that it was because Eunuch Liu was greedy and his subordinate Dong Tianbao wanted to fish and meat the common people, which led to the rebellion here.What's even more coincidental is that some unknown people in the rivers and lakes also destroyed the communication between Guo Jing and Eunuch Liu, resulting in the lack of information flow. Eunuch Liu is still waiting to send troops to take advantage of it, and he doesn't know that Xiangyang City is gone. !
"What are these things?" Yang Guo was speechless.

Guo Jing adhered to principles all his life and was admired by the whole world. In his later years, he gambled everything, not even principles, just to defeat the foreign enemy Kublai Khan, but in the end, all achievements fell short because of a group of people in the world. Who is to blame?

"They also made a mistake in order to fight against corrupt officials," said the man who held Eunuch Liu hostage.

His name is Zhang Junbao, he is only eighteen or nine years old, but his internal strength is already at the level of Wujue's first Huashan sword debate, which is incredible.

"Miscellaneous people also admire Guo Daxia very much. Really, we are best friends." Eunuch Liu said.

He was also a little flustered at this time.

It's okay to offend a few ordinary Jianghu people, anyway, Jianghu people dare not kill him.

But Guo Jing is different. As the leader of the entire Jianghu, he can be said to be able to respond to everyone, and his masters are even more numerous.Eunuch Liu had reason to believe that once these people wanted their own lives, even the Emperor of Song Dynasty would not be able to protect themselves.

"Whether it's right or wrong, you're not a good person, go down and accompany the brother who died in Xiangyang!" Yang Guo said.

Then he was going to smash Eunuch Liu to death with an epee, but at this moment, Zhang Junbao stretched out his palm and blocked the epee with a force Yang Guo had never seen before.Then he said: "Hero Yang, the injustice has its head and the debtor has its owner. The real perpetrator is Dong Tianbao. Please allow me to use this old eunuch first to get rid of that villain in the army!"

Yang Guo was taken aback for a moment, then nodded and said: "OK."

Afterwards, several people went to find Dong Tianbao together. While walking, Lin Xuan asked Yang Guo via voice transmission, "Are you really disappointed in the Central Plains?"

"Do you still have a little fantasy about it?" Yang Guo asked back.

"Shenzhou has gone through countless catastrophes for thousands of years, and it has stood still. I will never be disappointed in her." Lin Xuan said: "Look! You will witness a miracle in a while, that is the future of Jianghu. At the same time, It is also the future of my Central Plains!"
