Reality often does not develop as people imagine.

The Xiangyang Navy advanced in an attack formation until it entered the Jingmen waters, and did not encounter any Mongolian Navy warships, let alone ambushing. Even the Mongolian cavalry on the north shore retreated silently, as if they were coming this time to burn two Xiangyang Navy warships and show off their martial power.

This result made Jiang Hai and the soldiers of Xiangyang Navy, who were full of anger, feel happy and a little disappointed.

After the previous confrontation that was not considered a war, everyone, including Jia Sidao, had no idea of ​​going to Jingmen City. The strong military force of the Mongolian cavalry made everyone's hearts heavy.

When the prefect of Jingmen Youtong heard that Jia Sidao and others were attacked, he saw the mottled burn marks and wounded naval soldiers on the Xiangyang Navy warship, and he was almost scared to collapse on the ground.

He was originally planning to worship Jia Guojiu for a good life, but now he has no idea. Fortunately, Jia Sidao has nothing to do. If Jia Sidao really suffered any damage in the Jingmen realm, he, the prefect, would have ended.

You Tong could see that although Jia Sidao, the powerful and powerful in the court, is a big backer, he is now a hot potato. Who knows whether the Mongols will give up? Will they make a comeback? Just because of the tens of thousands of cavalry or on land, the Xiangyang Navy lost two warships and hundreds of soldiers. If the Mongols transferred the Navy to the Jingmen Waters, wouldn’t it be a disaster?

So, what You Tong wanted to do most at this time was to quickly send away the big Buddha Jia Sidao, the farther you walked, the better, because when he heard Jia Sidao's message, his hand would not stay in Jingmen or get off the boat, You Tong was so happy that he almost jumped up. He hurriedly replenished some food and drinking water for the fleet, and after serving a large amount of medicinal materials, he looked respectfully at the fleet sailing away from Jingmen Wharf before he breathed a sigh of relief.

The next hundred miles of water was not long, but not short. Along the way, a group of soldiers from the Jianghai and Xiangyang Navy were all mentally guarding against possible attacks. However, what surprised everyone was that there was no accident on the last hundred miles of water, and it was so quiet that it could not be quiet anymore. The tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry that appeared before seemed to have disappeared.

Such an abnormal scene made Jia Sidao even more uneasy.

After entering the Jinghu War Zone, Jia Sidao knew that the tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry were used to involve the Song army in the two major war zones of Huaixi and Huaidong, so that he could concentrate his superior forces to attack Xiangyang City with all his strength without worrying that he would be surrounded and annihilated by nearly one million troops of the three major war zones of the Song Dynasty.

Tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry scattered in Jingxiang, like locusts passing through the border, gathered together to burn two Xiangyang Navy warships to release those few rounds of ineffective rockets?

I'm afraid no one will believe it.

Since the Mongolian cavalry did not continue to target the Xiangyang Navy, was it because they continued to disband and harm the people of Song in Jingxiang? As soon as this idea came out, it was rejected by Jia Sidao.

The cavalry is very fast, but tens of thousands of cavalry can gather together by gathering together. After a few rounds of arrows, they will disperse. They are completely killing chickens with a ox knife.

Could it be that the gentle man is already planning to concentrate all the troops to break the city in one fell swoop?

Without the harassment or attack by the Mongols, there was no joyful scene in the fleet, but it was even more depressing. It seemed that in order to confirm Jia Sidao's speculation, it had been a whole day since he set out from Jingmen and had not received any war reports from Xiangyang City. This abnormal scene made everyone more worried about the situation in Xiangyang City.

The waterway that was originally a hundred miles long is particularly long at this moment.

...

At the same time, outside Xiangyang City, a stunning war that changed history was in full swing.

The overwhelming roar of horse hooves and the countless Mongolian cavalry galloped like flying replaced the various servants who were originally cannon fodder, and ran around the Xiangyang City, which was already full of broken walls.

If Jia Sidao was here, he would definitely be able to recognize it immediately. At this moment, the fierce cavalry outside Xiangyang City were the Mongolian cavalry who disappeared after harassed the Xiangyang Navy in the Jingmen waters.

As if Jia Sidao was worried, these Mongolian cavalry all gathered in Xiangyang City after a fake shot.

The feather arrows in the sky fell on the walls of Xiangyang City like pouring rain. Under the rain of arrows, there seemed to be no living creatures on the head of Xiangyang City, and even screams rarely appeared. If it weren't for the heavy, steady and regular sounds coming from the head of the city from time to time, everyone would have thought that Xiangyang City was already a dead city at this moment.

With every bang, several or even a dozen Mongolian cavalrymen who were flying like horses fell off their horses and were then trampled on the city's meat mud and mixed into the mud that had been soaked in blood. It was hard to tell whether it was meat or mud.

It was the bed crossbow placed on the top of the city. Like the Divine Arm Bow, it was the only two long-range and large-scale siege equipment equipped in the army of the Song Dynasty. On the eve of the Tanyuan Alliance, Khitan General Xiao Dalan was killed by the bed crossbow arrow, which greatly reduced the morale of the Khitan, which ultimately forced the Khitan to negotiate in Tanyuan and finally decided on the Tanyuan Alliance.

Unfortunately, compared with the feathered arrows pouring down from the sky outside the city wall, although the sound of the bed crossbow on the city wall is still steady, the number is too small to really hurt the Mongolian cavalry.

The slightest casualties not only did not allow dozens of Mongolian cavalry to roam around Xiangyang City, and to retreat like the wind, but instead stimulated their ferociousness. They would even approach less than a hundred meters away from the city wall, and quickly poured the feather arrows in the quiver quickly in the mercedes. Then, before the bed crossbow on the city wall made a sound, they controlled the war horses to stay away from the city wall and retreated beyond the range of the bed crossbow.

And every sound of the crossbow sounded, and there was no sight under the city. The Song army on the city wall knew that there would always be dozens or even hundreds of Song soldiers who had to string the crossbows to fall under the feather arrows of the Mongols.

Further away, there were more Mongolian cavalry waiting for the quiver of Mongolian cavalry under the city wall to reach the bottom. Behind these cavalry were densely packed with troops of servants ready to charge and break through the city at any time.

Among these servants, a platform several feet high rose up from the ground. He was wearing the costumes of the sect, sitting upright on the high platform, drinking and listening to music. More than a dozen Song women wearing gauze danced gracefully in the sound of the golden swords and iron horses.
