Xunzhou, Pingnan County.

As the only intermediate county in Xunzhou, Pingnan County was originally second only to Xunjiang County, a military stronghold, but since the last time the Yuan army attacked Guangxi, the Southern Song army stationed in Xunjiang County existed in name only. The entire Xunjiang County is also full of desolation, and Pingnan County has become the county seat with the largest number of people in Xunzhou.

Wen Tianxiang led the army to resist Ali Hague with great difficulty, and the army was stationed in Pingnan County at this time, relying on the power of the people to resist the Yuan.

Ali Hague's lieutenant general Jesur led an army of 80,000 to besiege Pingnan for two months, but never broke through the city.

In the city, Wen Tianxiang's army and horses were only more than 24,000 people.

These days, he is like a nail on the road of the Yuan army's attack on Leizhou, and he can't pull it out, but if he goes around, he is afraid that the rear will be unstable.

More than 100,000 soldiers and horses in the two states of Leiqiong, echoing each other from afar, even with the strength of Ali Hague, they almost had to come out, after all, he was fighting siege warfare.

Wen Tianxiang guarded Xunzhou, but he couldn't move the army.

It can be said that Wen Tianxiang is Ali Hague's heart disease in Guangxi.

Originally, Ali Hague thought that as long as the army was besieged for a period of time, Xunzhou would be lost, and there would be no need to lose many troops, but now that Qiongzhou was defeated and Jinjin was lost, he didn't dare to spend it any longer. Kublai Khan asked him to pacify Guangxi and Hunan, while the Southern Song Dynasty army was gradually growing, and it is conceivable that as long as the news of the loss of Jinjin reached the central capital, his political enemies would take the opportunity to impeach him, and when the time came, it was inevitable that Kublai Khan would condemn him.

Ali Hague did not dare to let the Southern Song Dynasty continue to grow, so he ordered Jesur to take Xunzhou at any cost.

He needed to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty in a short period of time in order to make up for his mistakes and maintain his position in the Yuan Dynasty.

As a vulture, he held a high position in the Mongolian court, and only he knew the taste of walking on thin ice.

At this time, outside Pingnan County, the Yuan army's army array stretched out, and its tail was nowhere to be seen.

After receiving Ali's letter from The Hague, Jesur immediately set up his army and left the camp, with great potential to force Pingnan.

With 80,000 yuan of non-commissioned soldiers, it is very possible to storm Pingnan, although it is bound to pay a heavy price.

At the head of Pingnan County, Wen Tianxiang, who was as elegant as jade, stood at the head of the city, surrounded by Liu Zijun, Zou Xun, Du Hu and other generals, with a solemn expression.

Wen Tianxiang swayed towards the east and said, "The emperor has captured Rongjin, Ali Hague will wipe out our army at any cost!" ”

Liu Zijun is the same age as Wen Tianxiang, with a Chinese face, and asked: "Military Aircraft Order, what should we do?" ”

Wen Tianxiang said slowly: "Defend it!" As long as we are still here, the Yuan thief will not have the energy to encircle and suppress the emperor's soldiers and horses wholeheartedly. ”

Liu Zijun frowned slightly, and said in a very low voice: "I'm afraid I won't be able to hold it for a long time now......"

Wen Tianxiang said: "The last person in the battle must be defended." ”

As he spoke, he sighed and said, "Go down and encourage your soldiers, and make them ready for battle!" As long as we hold out for enough time, I think the emperor will definitely find a way to relieve the siege of our army. ”

Liu Zijun, Zou Xun, Du Hu and others gave up their hands and took the order.

Wen Tianxiangfu overlooked the Yuan army formation hundreds of meters away from the city wall.

It was dark, dark clouds were overhead, and it seemed that a torrential rain could fall at any moment. This made the atmosphere in the city even more solemn.

Suddenly, a few horsemen came out of the Yuan army's formation.

The leader is a commander wearing ink armor, five big and three thick, extremely burly, and it seems that his status in the Yuan army is not low.

He was followed by a few of his own soldiers, who were holding their spears against two people under the horse, an old woman with gray hair, and a young man with unkempt hair.

Wen Tianxiang looked at the two people clearly, his body shook, and he almost fell.

When he arrived at the city wall, he was only more than 300 meters away from the city wall, and the commander immediately took his own soldiers and shouted: "Wen Tianxiang, quickly go out of the city and surrender, spare you and the people in the city from dying!" ”

"Fuck you!"

"Dog Yuan Thief!"

Most of the people in the Xingguo army were indomitable people like Wen Tianxiang, and they immediately scolded.

However, Du Hu, Zou Xun and the others saw the appearance of the old woman and the young man, but their faces were also shocked, and they lost color in an instant.

Wen Tianxiang looked down at the commander, his eyes were about to erupt into fire, and he was silent for a long time.

Then the commander cried out: "If you do not go out of the city and surrender, you will take the lives of your mother and your firstborn." ”

It turned out that the old woman and the young man were Wen Tianxiang's mother and eldest son. They were killed by spies on the way to war, but they were captured.

Wen Tianxiang still didn't speak, his body shook slightly, and his eyes were a little ruddy.

After years of fighting, there are not many relatives left. His wife had already been killed by the Yuan army.

Next to him, his second son shouted anxiously: "Father, find a way to save grandma and eldest brother!" ”

"Stand down!"

Wen Tianxiang shouted at him, "Do you know how many people are in this city? If I surrender, how will the thieves really spare them? ”

Jesur attacked the city several times and suffered heavy losses. Wen Tianxiang knew that if he broke the city, he would definitely slaughter the city to vent his anger.

Family, the country, and the people, which is more important, has long been decided in his heart.

He Wen Tianxiang is willing to give up his own life.

The second son gritted his teeth and retreated to the back, his eyes red.

The commander of the city waited for a few minutes, and seeing that Wen Tianxiang still did not speak, he snorted heavily and raised the big knife in his right hand.

"Drink!"

The two Yuan cavalry galloped to the left and right.

Wen Tianxiang's mother and eldest son were tied behind their horses with hemp rope and dragged and staggered.

In just a few seconds, Wen Tianxiang's mother couldn't keep up with the speed of the war horse because of her old age and rolled to the ground.

Later, his eldest son did the same.

The two war horses dragged them like this and galloped outside the city walls, and the yellow dust was billowing off.

Wen Tianxiang's hands were clenched tightly, his mouth was already bitten and bleeding, and two lines of tears slid down his face.

His second son was even armed with a gun and wanted to kill him out of the city, but was held down by several soldiers.

Wen Tianxiang's voice was hoarse, and he suddenly shouted: "No one is allowed to go out of the city, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!" ”

"Father!"

His second son was only eighteen years old, and it was when he was just strong, he paused when he heard the words, and then threw the spear on the ground angrily, and there was a bit of resentment in his eyes when he looked at Wen Tianxiang's back.

His father was a qualified courtier and general, but he was not a qualified son, husband, or father.

In Wen Tianxiang's heart, nothing is as important as the country.

In just a few minutes, his mother and eldest son were already dragged into a bloody blur of flesh and blood.

On the avenue, several blood marks were shocking.

His mother was dragged behind the horse, and she couldn't move.

Wen Tianxiang slowly closed his eyes.

After another two minutes, a terrible roar suddenly sounded from the city, "Father! Let's go first! ”

Wen Tianxiang's eldest son burst out of nowhere, suddenly struggled, picked up a stone while running, and slammed it on his head.

Immediately, he fell to the ground softly, and continued to be dragged by the cavalry of the Yuan army, unable to move.

The two horses dragged the two corpses and still galloped, and after two more laps, they returned to the commander.

On the bodies of Wen Tianxiang's mother and eldest son, there was not even a complete piece of cloth in sight.

Countless soldiers in the city scolded loudly.

Zou Xun, Du Hu and others had ruddy eyes, and tears were about to overflow their eyes.

"You're so ruthless!"

Wen Tianxiang's second son burst into tears and shouted at Wen Tianxiang's back.

Wen Tianxiang's body shook violently a few times, his face turned red suddenly, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

The sky suddenly exploded with thunder.

Wen Tianxiang's tall figure planted on the ground with the thunder, if it weren't for the soldiers next to him who saw the opportunity quickly, he was afraid that he would fall off the city.

Du Hu and the others hurriedly ran over, "Military Aircraft Order!" Prime Minister Wen! ”

Wen Tianxiang saw that his face was already full of sickness at this moment, as if he had no energy, and said angrily: "Ask for help from the emperor......

As soon as he finished speaking, he fainted.

Seeing his mother and eldest son being dragged to death by a war horse was unbearable even with his perseverance.

"Medic! Military! ”

Liu Zijun hurriedly shouted and asked the military doctor to come over and treat Wen Tianxiang.

Wen Tianxiang was quickly carried down by the soldiers.

Du Hu, Liu Zijun, Zou Wei and others will gather at the head of the city, and Liu Zijun will take over from Wen Tianxiang in charge of the overall situation, and said: "Everyone, now Pingnan County can only rely on me to wait." The military aircraft order strictly ordered that they should not leave the city, so we waited for the wall to defend it first, waited for the military aircraft order to wake up, and then discussed countermeasures. ”

Zou Xun was a rather thin man, and when he heard this, he groaned, "The prime minister asked me to wait for help, how can I get out?" ”

Liu Zijun said: "The Xunjiang River in the county leads directly to Jinjin, the Yuan army is not good at water warfare, and the Xunjiang River is dangerous, so there may be a chance to rush out." ”

"I'll go!"

At this time, Wen Tianxiang's second son suddenly ran up and said to Liu Zijun.

Liu Zijun frowned, "Wenqi, you ......"

Wen Qi puffed out his eyes and said, "I want the emperor to send troops to help avenge my grandmother and eldest brother!" ”

Zou Xun sighed softly beside him, "It's better for me to go, this is often life-threatening, not child's play." ”

Wen Qi stared at him with red eyes, "I'm familiar with water, why can't I go?" ”

Liu Zijun looked at Zou Wei, then at Wen Qi, and finally sighed, "Then Wen Qi will lead twenty elite soldiers out of the city to ask for help......"

Zou Xun is the commander of the army, and he has to stay here to guard, but it is really inconvenient to leave.

Not long after, several small boats came out of the south gate of Pingnan County and drifted towards the outside of the city.

Suddenly, a torrential rain poured down from the sky.

Lightning and thunder, almost night.

In the rear of the Yuan army's formation, the heavy sound of drums and horns also sounded at this time.
