The first mountain in Xuyi.

"Quick, fight back and take back the city gate!"

Fu Xuan, the guard of this city, roared in the wind and snow with panic.

Well, this is Fu Xuan, the general of Yue Family Army.

He was actually a general of the Imperial Army in Jiangxi. He originally went north to serve the kings in the second battle of Kaifeng in history. However, when he arrived, the Jin army had already brought the big painter's family back. After that, like other those who served the king, he wandered around the chaos of Jianghuai and Henan with a group of defeated generals, and continued to belong to the official army until he finally joined the Yue family army...

But he was doing very poorly.

When Yue Fei was still a small officer, he was in charge, and when Yue Fei was killed, he was in charge.

But now it’s different. In order to restrain the Liu family, the great painters in the south have made every effort to promote the original imperial guards in various parts of the Jianghuai River.

But there is really no one south of the Jianghuai River.

Originally, there were only thirteen generals in the southeast, and they were all slags among the slags, which even Fang La could not defeat. There were four generals in Guangdong and Guangxi, where did he find available? In the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, not to mention Yue Fei and Han Shizhong, even those who were able to fight were all northerners. Needless to say, the subordinates of Yue Fei, Cheng Min, who was able to fight with Han Shizhong, Cheng Min, Yue Chao, Jizhou, Jie Yuan, and Jie Quan, and Lianghe Rebel Army. Wang Sheng didn't know his hometown, but he followed the south from the north, and was probably from Hebei.

Before the Jingkang Incident, the Song Dynasty could not find any generals who could fight in the south of the Jianghuai River.

I can only draw the general from the slap.

Fu Xuan had previously led the imperial guards in Jiangxi to serve the king, and then stationed in Zhenjiang with Tan Zhen and Gao Qiu. After all, he was a barely qualified general. So with the full promotion of the great painter, he became the chief commander of Xuyi.

Then he was in trouble.

At this moment, the Dutongsi, who was standing on the first mountain, was almost crazy looking at the direction of the city gate below. The explosion of fires kept flashing, and thunderous sounds kept coming. The raging fire was burning. In the morning light that had begun to shine, all you could see was the fleeing defenders...

There are also always victorious troops who are chasing them.

After all, it is only two hundred meters away, and the city wall is actually at the foot of the mountain.

"Master, if you don't save your father, it's all!"

Liu Gang shouted anxiously.

He was in the Dutong Department. He didn't know that his father had been defeated and his younger brother had been captured by the Changsheng Army after being injured.

"Where are people, where have they gone?"

Fu Xuan shouted.

Only then did he notice that few soldiers around him came to fight back. On the hill where heavy troops were originally stationed, there were only a thousand people around him. In theory, those who were still sleeping at this time should have woken up long ago.

"The commander-in-chief, the subordinates of Qi's commander-in-chief defeated."

A personal soldier hurriedly ran over and shouted.

He was talking about another commander Qi Fang. Originally, a prepared general of the Imperial Army in Jiangnan, was also promoted to the commander by a great painter.

"Even if his subordinates are defeated, and he and his personal soldiers, won't he come over and let him come immediately no matter how many people there are left!"

Fu Xuan shouted like crazy.

Of course, he also knew that this was impossible. In this case, the subordinates collapsed and the generals did not run away. That would be a miracle.

"The commander-in-chief, the Northern Army has attacked!"

The personal soldiers in front shouted in horror.

Only then did Fu Xuan realize that some of the ever-winning troops entering the city had begun to rush up the hillside. These guys wearing fur coats were fiercely shouting and charging like barbarians...

They were.

Most of the first batch of ever-winning troops attacked were from the Huanglongfu area.

"Brothers, stick to the first mountain. The Duke of Qi is a famous general of the generation. He still blocks the thief army for a year when he defends Jinan alone. With Duke of Qi in charge, why should we worry?"

Fu Xuan shouted.

He is talking about Zhao Mingcheng.

Zhao Mingcheng was named Duke of Qi by a great painter for his military achievements in defending Jinan and was appointed as the pacification envoy of the Huai River to seize Xuyi. As for Fu Xuan, the commander-in-chief, was just a military general, when did the generals in the Song Dynasty let the generals be controlled by tens of thousands of troops alone?

Fu Xuan works just by working, and he has to take the blame when he needs it.

The Duke of Qi is the real commander.

Fu Xuan's words lifted the spirit of the defenders on the First Mountain at this moment. As the headquarters of the General Office, it is Fu Xuan's confidants, especially a large number of Huainan families like Liu Gang, who still have a certain fighting will. After all, many people's paddy fields are behind. What's more, there is Duke Qi, which is Zhang Xun and Xu Yuan of the Song Dynasty. They all defended Jinan alone and annihilated 100,000 enemies. Although they moved into Jiangnan, and there were rumors among the people that had never fought any wars at all, this was definitely fake.

The Duke of Qi must have fought for one year and finally lost his food and rescue.

What is the Duke of Qi afraid of?

Wang Yue personally led the army and was defeated again and again by the Duke of Qi. Now he is not as isolated as Jinan in Xuyi. The cavalry behind him arrives in one day, and now he is stunned by the sudden attack. As long as he withstands this wave, he can hold on and wait for reinforcements.

"Counterattack and fight the thief army out!"

Fu Xuan shouted with his iron gun.

"Kill the thief and receive the reward!"

Liu Gang roared.

Then they took their subordinates behind them and resolutely shouted at the Changsheng Army rushing towards the attacking Changsheng Army.

The latter actually didn't have many. There were only a thousand people entering the city in such a short time, but there were thousands of people who turned against each other. They mainly controlled the city walls and attacked the first mountain. These soldiers from the Huanglong Mansion area, one by one, were carrying weapons such as maces, and rushed to the top of the mountain like Jurchens who went south in history.

Maybe they were indeed in the Jurchen army in history.

In a sense, this hill is the core of the city gate defense system, because it overlooks the city gate at the foot of the mountain from a high place, and there are counterweight catapults on the mountain, but Fu Xuanren was unable to use it, and all the soldiers who were originally used ran away. As long as they defeated this wave of attack here, Zhao Mingcheng from Qi Dashan later organized reinforcements to arrive, he could use the catapult to smash the city gate here, and the ever-winning army entering the city became the target, so the key is this battle.

In a blink of an eye, two troops collided halfway up the mountain.

Fu Xuan is also considered a powerful general of Xu Qing's level. In fact, he often partnered with Xu Qing in the Yue Family Army. With the power of charging from top to bottom, he immediately picked up the mace in the hands of the soldiers of Changsheng Army on the opposite side and nailed him to the ground. Then the moment he raised his head, a small axe flew over, and he avoided it with a cold sweat. The flail in Changsheng Army on the opposite side was smashed down. Fu's iron spear was raised to block it, but the short rod tied to the iron chain on the head of the flail rod hit the back of his head.

Fortunately, he was still tilted, almost brushing his ears.

The sound of three-eyed gun shooting behind him sounded, and the bullet hit the ever-winning army, who then fell backwards.

Fu Xuan turned his head to look at Liu Gang, nodded with lingering fear, but at the same time, the same voice sounded opposite him.

Liu Gang fell down screaming.

An ever-winning army next to him immediately rushed towards him.

Fu Xuan hurried over and pulled the iron spear horizontally in his hand. The latter's iron mace was swept away. Fu Xuan's iron spear hit his chest. Although the tip of the spear slipped on something, the huge force still stabbed the latter. Before he could get up, Fu Xuan took the opportunity to stab him in the stomach.

This time it stabbed in.

But the ones stabbed in were still not deep. The leather jacket, the breastplate inside, and the cotton lining inside the breastplate made the defense layer of these ever-winning troops very strong. Even if the cone gun was not stabbed well, it would be slipped away by the breastplate.

Fu Xuan pulled out his gun and hurried over to look at Liu Gang, but the latter struggled to sit up and waved his hand at him.

Liu Gang was just shot in the shoulder.

"Brothers, kill the thief and receive the reward!"

Liu Gang got up and shouted with his uninjured arm holding up a three-eyed gun.

The soldiers fighting fiercely around them were excited, fighting bravely with the attacking Changsheng Army, defending Xuyi, defending the Southern Song Dynasty, and of course, the countless fertile fields of the Liu Gang family...

"District, withdraw quickly, the Duke of Qi has fled!"

An officer suddenly appeared on the top of the mountain and screamed in panic.

"Well?!"

Fu Xuan and Liu Gang turned around in shock at the same time.

"Mr. Retreat quickly. The Duke of Qi has already fled to the east gate with his personal soldiers!"

The man continued to scream at Liu Gang.

The defenders who were still fighting fiercely and even had the upper hand collapsed instantly. Everyone blocked their opponents and turned around and ran to the top of the mountain regardless of everything. Fu Xuan and Liu Gang looked at this scene with grief and anger. Then Fu Xuan quickly woke up and pulled Liu Gang to the top of the mountain. The Changsheng Army behind them was still confused. These soldiers could not understand their Jianghuai dialect. At this time, the Yanshan dialect was definitely not the modern Hebei dialect, and at this time the Jianghuai dialect was not the Jianghuai Mandarin of the Ming Dynasty.

They just watched for no reason that the soldiers who were about to drive them down the mountain all fled to the top of the mountain like crazy.

Since that's the case, of course I have to chase it.

"You guy, you dare to lie about military information. The Duke of Qi is a famous general of the world. How could he abandon the city and flee as soon as he was broken into a city gate?"

Liu Gang roared in grief on the top of the mountain.

"Langjun, I have been following you since I was a child. How could I lie to you? Run away quickly. Then Zhao Mingcheng is just a waste. When the young man went to ask for help, he had already gotten into the sedan chair and didn't even wear his official uniform. Zhang Xuyuan from the Song Dynasty was simply a liar!"

The officer said with tears in his eyes.

"Retreat quickly, go to the Pacification Envoy Department first, and use his order to mobilize the troops to continue to defend. Xuyi is so big, as long as you don't run away and hold on for two days, it's okay. The rest depends on Liu Guangshi's cavalry!"

Fu Xuan shouted.

Indeed, it is just a city gate that has been broken.
Chapter completed!
