Chapter 165 Sonic Attack, Mongol Army Retreats

After returning to the city, Murong Fu took out all the arrows from his personal storage space.

He instructed the relevant general to apply poison, such as wolfsbane, aconite, or cypermethrin... anything that wasn't too unclean would do, and he was to come and collect it the following evening.

When Guo Jing returned to his room, he found Huang Rong waiting for him.

Guo Jing was shocked: "Rong'er, you're about to give birth, why aren't you sleeping and are waiting for me here?"

Because Huang Rong was about to give birth, and Guo Jing needed to organize defenses, he was worried that his activities would disturb Huang Rong's rest.

Therefore, the two slept in separate rooms, and Guo Jing was surprised to see Huang Rong in his own room.

Huang Rong said, "Brother Jing, there is military intelligence saying that the Mongol army is making unusual movements."

They couldn't find you, so they told me, and I came here to wait for you.

Guo Jing sat down next to Huang Rong, put his arm around her, and said:

"Sigh, that's it."

Haha, I don't know whether to laugh or cry now.

Seeing Huang Rong's surprised and questioning expression, Guo Jing continued:

"The matter concerning Mongolia was done by me and Young Master Murong."

He asked me to go out with him at midnight today, but I later found out he was going to ride a little red horse and have me shoot down the Mongol soldiers with a bow and arrow...

Guo Jing recounted everything that had just happened to Huang Rong.

Guo Jing became more and more hesitant as he spoke, but Huang Rong's eyes lit up.

"Brother Jing, so if you go there once every night, perhaps in a few days, you can force the Mongol army to retreat."

! "

After a moment's hesitation, Guo Jing nodded and said, "That's true, but this behavior is going too far."

Huang Rong said, "Brother Jing, didn't Young Master Murong tell you that this is war? You also know that the Mongol army has a tradition of massacring entire cities. Although the soldiers may have been forcibly recruited, their hands are stained with blood all the way here."

"If we can repel the Yuan army, we can ensure the safety of the people in this region and prevent them from advancing south, thus protecting the peace and stability of millions of people in our Great Song Dynasty."

Guo Jing nodded. He knew that Murong Fu was doing the right thing by bringing him along, but he still felt a little uneasy.

I want to confide in Huang Rong.

Huang Rong continued:

"More importantly... this method can be replicated. Of the two thousand martial artists we recruited at the Heroes' Gathering, only a small fraction seemed capable of playing a significant role. But if we train them, they should be able to draw a bow with a draw weight of two or three stones, right?"

Guo Jing nodded and said, "The soldiers trained in the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill should be chosen from those with archery talent."

The destructive power is increased even more...

.

Huang Rong originally thought that there was no hope of defending the city against such a powerful enemy as the Mongols, but now there was a possible path to success. She discussed it with Guo Jing for a long time before going to bed.

The next day, when Murong Fu got up, he saw an old man in a green robe on the city wall, wearing the same human skin mask as Cheng Ying.

"Huang Yaoshi?"

Hearing someone call his name, the strange man in the green robe turned around, stared at Murong Fu for a moment, and said:

"You are Murong Fu, the leader of the martial arts alliance?"

Murong Fu nodded and said, "Senior, are you also here to reinforce Xiangyang?"

Huang Yaoshi nodded. Although he was a carefree man, as long as one is human, there are always relationships and ties.

My daughter and son-in-law's family are all in Xiangyang, as is my young apprentice Cheng Ying. They even discovered that my former apprentice, Feng Mofeng, is also there.

Seeing that Huang Yaoshi was a man of few words, Murong Fu didn't bother with awkward small talk. Instead, he said to Huang Yaoshi, "Senior, are you free at midnight tonight? Would you like to come with me?"

Huang Yaoshi: ? ? ?

Murong Fu naturally thought of Huang Yaoshi's "The Song of the Azure Sea and Rising Tide," a sonic weapon!

The Mongol army is going to suffer terribly!

During the day, Murong Fu had nothing to do, so he drew a rough sketch of the catapult's design.

However, the winding mechanism is omitted.

After all, there are so many martial arts masters here. It's much easier to have a few martial arts practitioners pull the ropes and push the counterweight box than to make a complete machine.

After handing the child over to Huang Rong, Murong Fu went shopping with Xiaolongnu, rode horses outside the city with Wanyan Ping, and climbed mountains with Lu Wushuang and Cheng Ying.

It can only be said that Murong Fu was indeed a master of time management. Just as he was about to go find Yelü Yan, he saw her with Yelü Qi, and beside them was an old man with white hair and beard, his face glowing and his smile amiable.

Upon seeing Murong Fu arrive, Yelü Qi immediately bowed and said:

"Young Master Murong, this is my master, Zhou Botong. He... he's here to help too."

Yelü Qi knew that Murong Fu and the Quanzhen School were at odds, so he did not mention that Murong Fu was a member of the Quanzhen School.

Murong Fu nodded and said to Zhou Botong, "Perfect timing, you come with me tonight at midnight, there'll be some excitement to watch."

Murong Fu knew that Zhou Botong disliked formalities, so he didn't stand on ceremony with him.

Before Zhou Botong could reply, Murong Fu pulled Yelü Yan away.

It's so lively tonight, I need to finish the project early during the day....

As expected, Zhou Botong and Huang Yaoshi were waiting for Murong Fu that evening, along with Hong Qigong.

Zhou Botong need not say more. After Yelü Qi recounted Murong Fu's extraordinary abilities, he naturally wanted to see more for himself.

Huang Yaoshi originally didn't want to go, but he couldn't resist Huang Rong's request. After meeting Zhou Botong and hearing his embellished account, he also became curious.

Hong Qigong was also brought over by Zhou Botong. Originally, Hong Qigong had to coordinate the bow gang, which was a heavy task, but after the Mongol army experienced the nightmare of the previous night, they obviously calmed down.

Qi Gong naturally had the time, so he wanted to see with his friends how Guo Jing and Murong Fu had done it.

Murong Fu and Guo Jing rode horses, while the other three masters followed alongside using their lightness skills.

Although the big red horse has a racial advantage, the people around it are all top-notch human experts and high-quality men. In fact, in a short sprint, these experts can be even faster.

Soon they arrived at the Mongol army camp. Guo Jing immediately noticed that the guards were much tighter tonight than the night before, and many more arrow towers and crossbow carts had been erected.

It seems the Mongol army was prepared.

Murong Fu naturally saw it too, but he didn't care at all. Instead, he gave Zhou Botong and Hong Qigong each a bag of iron nails, gave Guo Jing a bag of poisoned arrows, and had Huang Yaoshi start playing the "Blue Sea Tide Song" to the Mongol army.

Hong Qigong and Zhou Botong were both very easygoing and didn't care much about such things.

Huang Yaoshi considered himself a martial arts master and was unwilling to do this, but no matter how eccentric he was, he was still a person, and the idea of ​​"since I'm already here" could not be completely avoided.

I was just thinking to myself: I won't come again next time.

Under Huang Yaoshi's music, the sound covered almost the entire Mongol army camp, causing all the soldiers, including Kublai Khan, to suffer from splitting headaches and lose their ability to cope.

However, masters such as Xiao Xiangzi, Nemo Xing, Yin Kexi, and Ma Guangzuo were able to use their internal energy to suppress and reduce the impact, and immediately arrived at the royal tent to help Kublai Khan suppress the influence of the "Blue Sea Tide Song" with his true energy.

Kublai Khan couldn't help but ask, "My warriors, what is that sound?"

Xiao Xiangzi, a master from western Hunan, having heard of Huang Yaoshi's reputation, said, "This is the technique of Huang Yaoshi, the Eastern Heretic. This melody is extremely powerful and can cause people to lose their minds—"

Kublai Khan asked, "Is there any way to break this?!"

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Xiangzi said, "I've got it!"

Then they found a bronze gong in the royal tent, struck it vigorously, and everyone felt a sense of relief. It turned out that the "Azure Sea Tide Melody" would lose its effectiveness in noisy environments.

Although they were experts, they still suffered from the Azure Sea Tide Melody. Moreover, this was because the Azure Sea Tide Melody covered the entire military camp, not specifically targeting them; otherwise, it would have been even more unbearable.

Kublai Khan was overjoyed when he learned of this, and then ordered several experts to go out and beat the war drums. Gradually, the entire military camp was freed from the invasion of the demonic sound.

However, they discovered that Guo Jing had killed over a thousand more people during this period.

Huang Yaoshi stopped playing his drums after he noticed that the Mongol army had started beating them.

Although he was pretending to be completely at ease and maintaining the demeanor of a master, he was actually exhausted.

They had never done anything like this before, where the sound of flutes could be heard throughout the entire military camp.

When Zhou Botong saw that Huang Yaoshi had put away his instrument, he finally lowered his hands from his ears. Although he wasn't being targeted by Huang Yaoshi, he was so tired of hearing it on Peach Blossom Island that he habitually covered his ears every time he heard it.

Behind them was Murong Fu riding his horse, using the "Star-Shifting Technique" to deflect the crossbow bolts aimed at Guo Jing, protecting him from any interference.

Hong Qigong and Zhou Botong used steel nails to deal with some of the Mongol troops who rushed out. Although their range was far less than Guo Jing's 300-meter range, it was still around 100-200 meters.

Although the Mongols were an iron cavalry, they were not iron men after all; they were shot and cried out for their mothers.

After Zhou Botong and the other two finished shooting five or six packs of nails, and Guo Jing had shot more than two thousand arrows, he had already broken two five-stone iron bows, and Guo Jing's physical strength was almost exhausted.

However, at this point, there was no sign of any living person left in the entire Mongol camp.

Murong Fu naturally knew that Kublai Khan had nearly 100,000 troops, and that he had only killed two or three thousand people in the past two days. There must still be a large number of soldiers present, but they were just pretending to be dead and not daring to show their faces.

Seeing the enemy's policy, Murong Fu knew Guo Jing would never be able to shoot again, so he rode up to Huang Yaoshi and said, "Senior, they've stopped beating the drums. Shall you play another tune?"

Huang Yaoshi, whose internal energy had just recovered somewhat, naturally wouldn't boast anymore. He snorted coldly and prepared to return to the city.

Upon seeing the way the man used his lightness skill, Murong Fu knew that his internal strength was indeed lacking. He thought to himself that after all, he was getting old; although his internal strength had become increasingly profound, his physical strength was insufficient.

He then returned to the city with Guo Jing, Hong Qigong, Zhou Botong, and others.

Kublai Khan and his men waited for a long time, until Nemo and the others confirmed that the demon stars had left, before they dared to count the casualties and treat the wounded.

Then they discovered that this time the arrows were also poisoned, which shocked and angered them.

After Murong Fu and the others returned home, they all rested. However, Zhou Botong was too excited to sleep and dragged Hong Qigong and Guo Jing out for a meal and drinks.

Throughout the meeting, they were repeatedly questioned about Murong Fu.

the next day.

A scout reports: The Mongols have withdrawn their troops!

Although the martial arts heroes in the city didn't feel much involved, they listened to the old master Zhou Botong sitting on the high platform recounting how the four of them had defeated 100,000 Mongol soldiers.

These chivalrous figures from the martial arts world felt as if they were there, their hearts pounding with excitement.

There were rumors that although people in the martial arts world usually acted nimbly, they were actually no match for organized armies, especially those with skilled archers and crossbowmen.

But after Zhou Botong and others spread the word, they realized that martial arts could be used in this way.

They possess far superior vigilance and eyesight compared to ordinary soldiers, and their agility and stealth skills are unparalleled. When paired with a fine horse, they can indeed achieve remarkable results.

Moreover, under Huang Rong's influence, there were multiple options, such as setting off rockets to burn grain and fodder or sneaking into the Mongolian canteen to poison it.

All the martial arts practitioners were eager to try.

But these things require experience, so Murong Fu suggested that Guo Jing organize a training session on archery, horsemanship, and archery.

Training courses on marching knowledge.

Although Kublai Khan's army had retreated, many parts of China were still suffering from the Manchu invasion.

This group of martial arts masters is enough to turn these places upside down.

Thus, under the call of the martial arts alliance leader and the Xiangyang garrison, the "Xiangyang Martial Arts Academy" was established. Murong Fu served as its first principal, gathering more martial arts practitioners and young people with blood feuds against the Mongols for training. Higher-level martial arts were taught to the more talented students.

He also taught the "Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill" to young men of average talent. Murong Fu knew that once his reputation grew, there would inevitably be Mongolian spies and Central Plains elites who wanted to infiltrate him. After all, the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill was a closely guarded secret in Mongolia, and ordinary soldiers had no right to practice it. However, in the martial arts hall, anyone could learn it.

Therefore, Murong Fu, Hong Qigong, Huang Rong, and others established strict rules. Other martial arts were fine, but practitioners of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill were like ordinary soldiers, and had to strictly abide by military orders and could not leave at will.

Furthermore, he instilled in them the ideas of loyalty, patriotism, and love for the country. Murong Fu would occasionally check the favorability system values ​​during the reorganization.

While it cannot be guaranteed that those who have a high regard for him are not spies or agents, Murong Fu knew that his strength was recognized within the Mongol army, and even among the enemy, he had his own fans.

That's what you call a respectable opponent.

But at least those with low favorability ratings will be filtered out.

Murong Fu's reputation soared, and the Song court began to have some opinions about him, but Murong Fu dismissed them all.

He couldn't be bothered with these parasites, and now that the crisis in Xiangyang seemed to be temporarily averted.

Murong Fu suddenly felt tired and needed to rest.

After all, he used to go to bed on time every day, and even when he was learning Sanskrit, he would rest before midnight.

But these past two days, he's been riding around outside with Guo Jing during midnight and 1-3 AM, shooting people, which reminded him of the days he spent working overtime in his previous life.

He then took Xiaolongnu and the others, found a large boat, and wanted to travel along the Han River for a few days to relax.

Many people were naturally reluctant to see Murong Fu leave, while others felt insecure without him.

However, the situation has basically stabilized, and the Allied forces have already withdrawn. Xiangyang can now simply resume normal troop training.

Aside from Huang Yaoshi's somewhat sour expression, it was because he noticed that among the group of women Murong Fu was with, there were also his own disciples.

But since his disciple said he wanted to keep an eye on his cousin from being bullied by Murong Fu, and his daughter Huang Rong was about to give birth, Huang Yaoshi, who was quite concerned about his image, didn't say anything more.

Just one day before their departure, Murong Fu returned to the world of Tianlong with Bao'er and Xiao Hai.

"Nonsense, of course I have to take you two little ones home before the party starts!"
