1055 The place where God breaks the whip (1)
In June 1259 A. D., The flames of war raged outside fishing city.
The Mongolia Army’s vanguards endured the scorching sun above their heads and climbed up the walls of fishing city with great difficulty. The boulders, logs, and arrows that rolled down from the walls became the nightmare of all the attackers. Every time a black shadow fell from the top of the walls, there would be screams from below the walls.
The sounds of bones breaking and screams of pain were heard again and again in the midst of the blood splattering and the cries of the siege.
Xia ping ‘an, who had transformed into Wang Jian, was wearing his armor and looking into the distance from the City Tower outside fishing city. He looked at the camp of the Mongolia army and the huge flag with the word ” Wang ” on it. His face was calm, as if he was looking at a frozen landscape painting.
When Deputy general Zhang Ji and the soldiers who were guarding the city saw how calm their commander was, they didn’t panic at all. Instead, they bravely killed the enemy.
Ever since Wang Jian killed Jin’s national treasure, who was sent by the Mongolia army to persuade them to surrender, everyone knew that fishing city and the Mongolian army would fight to the death. If the Commander-in-Chief was not afraid of death and even put his son in the city to fight the enemy with the others, what would the rest of the people in fishing city be afraid of?
Xia Pingan was on the city wall, but his mind had already passed through his field of vision and flown far away. For the soldiers and civilians in fishing city at this moment, they might not have realized how much influence the upcoming war would bring to the whole world. None of the garrisons and generals in the city could imagine what kind of miracle and glory they would create in the military history of the world with their persistence and bravery!
At this moment, in the entire Eurasian continent, wherever the iron hooves of Mongolia reached, the sharp edge of God’s whip was shocking the entire Eastern and Western worlds.
The Army led by Hu Bilie had already destroyed Dali in Yunnan, and the Southern Song Dynasty was suddenly besieged on all sides.
&Nbsp; Xu liehu had already occupied Persia, Syria, and Palestine, and he was pointing his sword at Egypt’s mamuruk dynasty.
The powerful central Mongolia Empire was like an eight-clawed monster entrenched in Eurasia, pillaging everywhere and displaying its barbaric pride. The entire Confucian civilization, Muslim civilization, and Christian civilization were all trembling in fear, and their lives were in danger.
At the end of last year, the powerful central Mongolia Empire went all out and gathered three armies to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty. The first Army was led by the brother of the Great Khan, Hu Bilie, and attacked Ezhou from the north to the south. The second group would start from Yunnan, pass through Guangxi, and enter the Southern Song Dynasty to join up with hubilie. The third Army was led by the Great Khan of mengge. The Great Khan of mengge set out from Ningxia, preparing to enter the Southern Song Dynasty through Sichuan. Finally, the three armies would gather together and attack the capital, Lin ‘an.
The progress of the other two armies was still considered smooth. Hu Bilie was already approaching Lin ‘an city.
The 100,000-strong West Mongolia army led by Great Khan monggo was like a hot knife through butter. After they broke through swords gate, they swept through Danzhou, Pengzhou, Qingju city, Longzhou, Yazhou, western Sichuan, and chuanzhong. When the Mongolian army arrived at Diaoyu city, they had no choice but to stop like a surging wave that hit a black steel reef.
Xia ping ‘an had been Wang Jian for five years in this world. When he first entered the realm Pearl, it was 1254 ad. Wang Jian was promoted to the Lieutenant of Xingyuan mansion by the court of the Southern Song Dynasty because of his Meritorious Service in the war against Mongolia. He also knew he Zhou and was in charge of the defense of fishing city.
As soon as Xia Pingan took office, he mobilized hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the five counties under his jurisdiction according to the strategies and methods of Wang Jian in history. He began to build a three-dimensional defense system in fishing city.
The construction of fishing city did not start from Wang Jian. As early as the year 1243, the assistant Minister of the Ministry of War, the envoy of Sichuan appeasement and the prefect of Chongqing, Yu Jie, adopted the suggestions of the brothers ran Jie and ran PU. According to the strategic Defense idea of ” combining city and fortress, military and politics “, he built fishing mountain. He moved the governing areas of Hezhou and Shizhao County into the city, stationed troops and grains, and recruited talents. This laid the foundation of fishing city, and also opened the prologue of the 36-year defense of fishing city.
Under Wang Jian’s leadership, fishing city had become a self-sufficient steel fortress after a thorough renovation. Fishing city was divided into two sets of defense systems, the inner city and the outer city. The city wall was divided into many independent areas, and the city wall was built with solid strips of stone, thus preventing the collapse of the entire line at the slightest breakthrough. In addition, the city wall also extended to the pier by the river, so that the Army could engage in battle on the water surface at any time without any interference.
The outer city was built on a cliff. The city wall made up for the gaps between the cliffs and was built layer by layer along the steep mountain. The city wall was built with strips of stone and had eight city gates. Buildings were built on the gates, named Huguo, Shiguan, Xiaodong, Xindong, Jinghua, Wusheng, Qisheng, and Zhenxi, thus forming a defense that was one with man-made and natural.
On this basis, the outer city had the geographical advantage of being on high ground, setting up forts and arrow towers to form a Crossfire network, which could carry out full-coverage killing. In the inner city, there were thousands of acres of fertile land and an endless rich water source. After the whole of Hezhou moved into fishing city, the military and people were integrated, and they could attack and defend.
There was also a secret underground tunnel in the city where soldiers were stored and transported. The tunnel was made of stone, 1.25 meters high and 1 meter wide, extending in a straight line. About 15 meters after entering the cave, there was a narrow pass that could only allow one person to walk sideways. Further ahead was suddenly open, leading to the West, South, and North of fishing city.
In addition, the heavenly pond that fetched water from the city had expanded to more than 100 steps away from the city. 13 new small ponds had been opened, and 92 Wells had been built, so fishing city had sufficient water. Fish could also be bred, which made it convenient for irrigation of farmland.
And fishing city was also located in the center of the Jialing River, Qu River, and Fu River. As long as the land was controlled, the waterway of the Three Rivers would be directly blocked, thus forming an important barrier to the north of the Sichuan-Shu strategic town of Chongqing.
This fortress had been built for many years, waiting for this day to have a showdown with the Mongolia army that had destroyed the Song Dynasty. It was just like how Xia ping ‘an had been waiting here for the Great Khan of Mongols to bring down the God’s whip that had shaken the entire world.
This was a destined battle between a city, a man, and the Army of a powerful empire against the Great Khan!
Xia ping ‘an patrolled on the city wall, and before he knew it, he had already arrived at the city wall of the MA army camp in fishing city. The battle there was the most intense, and the battle cries were deafening. It was also the main attack direction of the Mongolia Vanguard Army outside the city.
A lecherous warrior with two buns on his head, who was biting his saber with his teeth, climbed up the city wall of the horse stockaded village. The moment he exposed his head from behind the city wall and appeared in front of Xia Pingan, the treasured sword on Xia Pingan’s waist uttered a dragon roar and gave out a cold light. At the same time, that lecherous man’s head was sent flying in the air while his body fell heavily backward.
The guards beside him rushed over and fiercely stabbed their long Spears into the holes on the city wall. As a result, a few brave men of the Mongolia Vanguard who wanted to climb up the city wall fell down while shrieking miserably and bleeding all over. &Nbsp;
my Lord, it’s dangerous here. Please go somewhere else and watch the battle, ” Zhang Ji, the Deputy general of fishing city, said to Xia Pingan solemnly as he wiped the blood off his face.
Xia Pingan looked at Deputy general Zhang Ji calmly and asked, ” how’s the plan for MA junzhai? ”
“The plan is ready. But Sir Wufu, isn’t this too dangerous? our Army still has enough strength to defend the MA junzhai. Do we really have to do this?” Zhang Ji said worriedly. If it wasn’t for Xia ping ‘an who suggested this plan, anyone else who dared to suggest this would have been considered a traitor and had their heads chopped off.
Xia ping ‘an did not explain. He only took another look at the large flag with the word ” Wang ” fluttering in the vanguard camp of the Mongolia army. The lines on his face turned cold, and he only said three words firmly, ” execute it, Yingluo.
