Chapter 24 Yangzhou's Relief (Part 2)

Shi Tianze also knew the difficulties he was facing, and still said confidently: "Old guy, don't worry. If you can't take down Yangzhou, I, Shi Tianze, don't need the emperor to use military methods, just wipe your neck by yourself."

A Shu patted Shi Tianze on the shoulder and said, "Old guy, I don't want you to issue a military order."

After seeing A Shu off, Shi Tianze immediately summoned the generals and sent orders to ask the soldiers to prepare food for seven days. After the food was prepared, they immediately gathered the three armies and ordered all the cooking utensils to be destroyed in front of the three armies. Although the soldiers were unwilling to do so, they did not dare to disobey his strict orders, so they had to implement them.

Shi Tianze gave the three armies a confused look before the battle mobilization: "Genghis Khan's descendants: You are facing a huge difficulty now, that is, you only have seven days of food. In these seven days, you will either live or die. If you conquer Yangzhou City, you will live, and if you can't defeat it, you will die. Do you want to die or live?"

His approach is similar to the King of Chu's destruction and boating. It can inspire the soldiers' fighting spirit. Everyone shouts: "Birth! Born! Born!" Every word has a force of ten thousand pounds!

"We are all descendants of Genghis Khan!" Shi Tianze drew his sword and pointed at Yangzhou City, roaring: "Kill!"

The soldiers issued a shocking battle call: "Genghis Khan! Genghis Khan!" and began to attack Yangzhou City.

Li Tingzhi was patrolling the city. When he heard the battle call from the Yuan army, his expression changed and then he returned to calm. Although the change in his face only took a moment, Zhu Huan's sharp eyes still saw it and asked, "Marson, what's wrong with you?"

"The lion is angry." Li Tingzhi said very concisely.

Zhu Huan said a little confused: "Is the lion angry?"

Li Tingzhi reminded: "You hear this voice, it is a call for death and a roar for survival."

Zhu Huan didn't understand even more and said, "This is no difference, it's no different from the previous Mongolian shouts."

Looking at the Yuan army that was queuing in an orderly battle formation, Li Tingzhi had no time to explain in detail and said, "You will know later. Send the order and prepare for the battle!"

As Li Tingzhi said, after the battle started, Zhu Huanfang understood what Li Tingzhi meant and murmured to himself: "The Marshal is really a god-like man, and he can distinguish the enemy's intentions from his voice. This voice is different from before, and it is particularly powerful, and it is a roar of survival from death."

Li Tingzhi was a good general. Under his leadership, the Yangzhou army was able to fight well and became an elite soldier. Since the Yuan army besieged the city, they have been experienced veterans with dozens of battles. Under the command of Li Tingzhi, the Yuan army suffered heavy blows. The Yuan army survived, desperately and had no fear at all. They killed them in rows and beat them to the city. The one behind stepped on the corpses in front continued to attack, as if the one who stepped on them was not their companions, and they were no different from the soil.

Such a fierce fighting style of lifelessness, Li Tingzhi encountered the first time since fighting with the Yuan army, and was secretly shocked. The bodies of Yuan soldiers were almost filled with the moat, and a thick layer of blood was floating in the moat. Li Tingzhi, a general who had experienced many battles and had seen countless bloody scenes, couldn't help but shed tears.

Shi Tianze's face was solemn that he could twist out the water and watch the two armies fight quietly. The Mongolian generals' eyes were bloody and bloody, and they shouted to supervise the battle, and some even took the arrows and stones to charge into the battle.

The battle was in blood, without any separation between day and night, and it was endless. Until four days later, the Song army began to show signs of lack of support, and the soldiers were exhausted and were powerless to take action. After being surrounded by Yangzhou, there were dozens of battles, and the soldiers were severely reduced. In this endless battle, the soldiers had no idea how many times they had received a short rest, how many times they were told that the situation was urgent, the rest was cancelled, and they returned to the city to fight.

After a long battle, the soldiers would have been exhausted. If Li Tingzhi had not been constantly motivated and cheered up again and again, he would have fallen on the city and fell asleep. The advantage of the Yuan army lies in their number of advantages, and they can take turns to attack, and they will get much more rest time. Although it is very expensive, it would have been much better than the Song army.

Seeing the Song army weakening little by little, the Yuan army's offensive slowly extended forward like a maggot, Shi Tianze couldn't help but smile with relief.

"If this continues, they will be dragged down in another two or three days." Shi Tianze thought to himself.

Two days later, the soldiers of the Song army were extremely tired. Not to mention the soldiers, even Li Tingzhi was almost tired. The reason why he could persevere was that he had a magic weapon. This magic weapon was nothing else, just a thorn secretly held in his left hand. Whenever his eyelids were about to close, he would stab it hard on his thigh. It was this thorn that he persisted until now.

"It's done." Shi Tianze said happily: "Tell me the order and launch the general attack."

The sound of whimpering horns sounded, and the Yuan army roared and attacked the city. Victory was in sight, and even the tired people would be very motivated. The Yuan army seemed to have taken stimulants, and each of them was greatly energetic and rushed up like a craze. Within a cup of tea, many Yuan army climbed up to the city. More and more Yuan army climbed up to the city, constantly expanding victory.

"It's over, it's over." Li Tingzhi thought desperately in her heart: "Only miracles can save us."

What no one could have imagined was that a miracle actually happened.

Li Tingzhi on the top of the city suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at the distance, looking surprised. His performance was contagious and soon affected others. Needless to say, the soldiers of the Song army were, even the Yuan army looked into the distance like him.

Smoke and dust rolled in the distance, as if a huge broom raised the dust on the ground high, covering half of the sky. Then there was a sound of hooves like thunder, and the earth was trembling.

Here, Shi Tianze and the others felt something was wrong. Looking back, they saw a beautiful smooth water line appearing in the distance, which quickly flowed over. Flags fluttered, and a large army came over.

It is still clear which side this army belongs to. Both sides of the war were surprised and stopped involuntarily, waiting anxiously for the answer.

The answer was soon revealed. The flag of the Song army and the Zhang-character flag fluttered in the wind, stretching like a painting, and was particularly beautiful.

When the balance is in balance, just one hair can make him lose balance. The current situation is exactly the same as the balance. Although Shi Tianze has gained a certain advantage, this advantage is not much. If this Song army's new force joins the battle, the few advantages he has just obtained will disappear immediately. Shi Tianze, who has been used to calmness, has a face as dark as a chubby chicken.

Shi Tianze is a very courageous person. His military talents are highly appreciated by Kublai Khan. This unexpected situation comes too suddenly or at the most critical moment. Anyone who suddenly encounters such a thing will feel at a loss.
