When it was almost time for Shen, the Yuan army arrived outside the east gate of Xiujiang Town.

On the earth walls in Xiujiang Town, countless Song soldiers were already waiting for the battle. Grenade launchers, thunderbolt chariots, etc. had been set up.

The Yuan soldiers were trembling when they saw these things.

Monto, who was in front of the army, looked cold and waved his hand and shouted: "Beat the drum and march!"

The drums in the array sounded.

The Yuan army was surging, and except for thousands of central troops, they all rushed towards Xiujiang Town.

The shield soldier in front arched his body slightly, revealing his head. The whole army shouted and killed him.

But what they faced was the ruthless artillery fire of the Song army.

Zhang Jue stood behind the earthen wall himself and shouted loudly: "Let it go!"

Under the command of Zhao Hu, a total of 600 grenade launchers poured shells into the Yuan army at the same time.

Zhao Dongting, Qin Han and others were standing on the roof of a house not far from the town gate. Zhao Dongting said, "Can the Yuan army capture Xiujiang Town like this?"

Seeing the Yuan army launching a large-scale attack, he had no strategy at all, and felt confused.

Qin Han shook his head and said, "No."

Zhao Dongting said again: "Then why are they? Could it be that Monto is so funny?"

Qin Han was slightly surprised and did not understand what Xiudou meant, but he did not delve into it. He replied: "Princess Mingzhu was captured, and Monto must lead his army to attack the city, otherwise, neither Boyan nor the Yuan Dynasty emperor Kublai Khan would have a good end."

Zhao Dongting said quietly: "Then are they here to die?"

Qin Han said: "It can be said that."

Zhao Dongting couldn't help laughing out loud, "Haha, then there is no need to be polite to them."

As he said that, he looked at the messenger who was waiting behind and said, "Send the order and ask Deputy Zhang to order not to save shells. How many Yuan troops can be left for me!"

The war reached this point, which surprised him, but also made him feel a little funny.

When he asked Le to capture Princess Mingzhu for free, he was just angry because Yue Yue was seriously injured. However, he did not expect that Mingzhu would cause such a change in the battle situation. Monto actually took the initiative to lead the soldiers to die. Moreover, Li Wangyuan would also secretly want to unite with him under such circumstances.

Zhao Dongting felt for the first time that war might be really not just a competition in military power.

He suddenly had some expectations, not knowing what other changes would arise if Princess Mingzhu was captured.

Amid the sound of artillery fire, countless Yuan soldiers flew with flesh and blood.

In front of Xiujiang Town, it was once again reduced to hell on earth.

The ashes of the corpses that were originally burned outside the town have not been blown away by the wind, and countless new corpses have been added.

In front of the Yuan army, Monto watched the soldiers in front suffer heavy losses, without any movement on his face.

When he reaches his situation, he will not be confused any more after making up his mind.

He knew very well that only enough damage could be wiped out by the loss of Boyan and Kublai Khan's anger towards him.

The drums kept ringing and the cannons kept ringing.

At this moment, life seems so insignificant.

The Yuan army was defeated several waves of offensives one after another, and lost countless troops, but still launched attacks one after another.

They really seem to have the determination to never return to the army until they break the Xiujiang River.

By the river beside Qilin Island.

The Yuan army soldiers were also damaged countless times, and I don’t know how many Yuan army corpses were washed down by the river.

The bamboo rafts on the river were blown up and the bamboo poles were messy.

There are also life jackets made of cowhide, similar to life jackets, which were also blown up countless times in the river.

Two Yuan army cavalry rushed to wooden bridges on both sides of the north and south, trying to rush to cross the river, but Zhao Da arranged dozens of flying dragon soldiers to seize the opportunity.

Before the two iron cavalry could rush across the wooden bridge, the flying dragon soldiers blew up the wooden bridge with a grenade launcher and had to retreat.

At this point, the Yuan army suffered losses of two thousand, but the Feilong Army soldiers under Zhao Da were not at all damaged.

Everyone feels cowardly.

And at this time, a messenger finally arrived.

The commander rushed to the general and turned over and fell to the ground, "General, the army of the chief general has arrived in Xiujiang Town, and ordered you to retreat."

After saying that, he took out the Monto token and presented it with both hands.

The general did not take the token, but just swept over and said, "I know, go back and report to the main general!"

As he said that, he immediately shouted: "Mingjin retreated!"

He had long wanted to withdraw, and he had never fought such a cowardly battle since he joined the army.

The sound of gold sounds in the Yuan army.

The soldiers who were still dizzy in the bombing in the river were also as if they had been amnesty and quickly rowed bamboo rafts to retreat to the bank of the river.

Seeing this, Zhao Da asked the soldiers to stop the shelling and laughed again, "Grandsons, you also want to invade our territory of the Song Dynasty. Go home early to drink milk!"

The flying dragon soldiers laughed when they heard this.

Several hundred meters, Zhao Da's voice vaguely reached the opposite river bank, which made the Yuan army generals and soldiers look as if they were ashen.

On Qilin Island, the Song soldiers gathered on the shore of the island cheered loudly.

Soon, the Yuan army hurriedly retreated. Zhao Da also led two hundred flying dragon soldiers to Xiujiang Town with great enthusiasm.

Until he returned to Xiujiang Town from the South Gate, the battle at the North Gate continued.

The sound of cannons spread throughout Xiujiang Town, and it continued. Zhao Dabing led his soldiers to the north gate.

The Song army, which originally had 600 grenade launchers, added 200 grenade launchers, which was even more lethal, and the explosion caused panic among the Yuan soldiers.

In this way, it was not until the evening that the Yuan army finally withdrew.

The outside of Xiujiang Town was devastated, and the ground was filled with holes blown out by artillery shells and the corpses of the Yuan army.

Monto was cruel. In this battle, his soldiers were probably lost to nearly 20,000. In addition, those who were beheaded in the military camp were even more than 20,000.

The Song army in Xiujiang Town was very happy, and even Zhao Dongting and others couldn't help but feel that Princess Mingzhu was a lucky star.

Princess Mingzhu, who was tied to the hall, was sluggish and heard the sound of cannons. Soon, she saw Zhao Dongting and others entering the hall with a smile on their faces, and she felt even more depressed. She just sighed that the Yuan army had not been able to break the city and she was not rescued, but she didn't know how many people the Yuan army soldiers had lost in vain because she was captured.

Perhaps even if she knew it, Princess Mingzhu wouldn't care. She was born in the royal family, and for her, mere soldiers were not important.

Zhao Dongting held another banquet in the government office, and once again "tortured" Princess Mingzhu.

But this time, Princess Mingzhu couldn't hold on anymore.

When the banquet dispersed, there were only a few people left in the hall. She couldn't help but say to Zhao Dongting: "How do you want to let me go?"

At this time, her little face was already very pale, her face was fading, and her lips were also cracked due to thirst.

"put?"

Zhao Dongting walked closer to her and said, "I seem to have said that I will not let you go until the army arrives."

“Woo woo…”

Princess Mingzhu cried, "If you don't let me go, you should let me have dinner..."

This little girl was still broken.

She had never suffered any hardships, and it was extremely difficult to survive until now. At this moment, she finally completely let go of her arrogance.

Le Chan pulled Zhao Dongting's sleeve again.

Zhao Dongting said: "Let me give you food, that's OK. However, you have to agree to me with a condition."

The poor Princess Mingzhu had a strong look of hope in her eyes.

Zhao Dongting said in a deep voice: "Mr. Yue almost died because of you. I, let you kneel down and apologize for her!"

"you!"

Princess Mingzhu was furious, "I am a princess, how can I kneel down to the untouchables?"

"Are the untouchables?"

Zhao Dongting sneered: "If you were not born in the royal family, wouldn't you also be a pariah? Before your ancestors became famous, wouldn't you also be a pariah?"

He walked out of the hall, "Since you don't want to kneel down, then you can continue to starve here! Don't worry, I won't let you die."

"ah……"

Princess Mingzhu struggled desperately, but after a few strokes, her tired body lost its strength.

After struggling, she seemed to have accepted her fate and cried, "I promised you! Isn't it okay for me to promise you?"

She really didn't want to suffer such torture again.

Zhao Dongting turned around, glanced at her lightly, and said to Le Wuchen: "Senior, let go of her and take her to see the Lord Yue Palace."

Afterwards, the dignified Princess Mingzhu was taken in her hands like a quail and left to the house where Yue Yue was recovering from the wounded.
