Chapter 361 Sisters Reunited

So in recent years, various assassinations against Lv Wenhuan have never stopped.

Kublai Khan thought of something and asked, "I heard that the person who organized the assassination of General Lv was Guo Jing's wife?"

"That's right, Khan."

Lv Wenhuan stood up and stepped out of the line. His face was not good while he was talking. He forced a smile and said, "The leader of this group of remnants of the Southern Song Dynasty martial arts world is Guo Jing's wife, Huang Rong!"

Kublai Khan glanced at Lv Wenhuan and nodded.

Kublai Khan had naturally heard of the name Guo Jing.

Although Guo Jing was a Han Chinese, he grew up in Mongolia since he was a child. He was appreciated by Temujin and was on good terms with his father Tolui.

He was also engaged to Princess Huazheng, Kublai Khan's aunt in name, and was called the Golden Sword Prince Consort.

Logically speaking, if Guo Jing had stayed in Mongolia and had never set foot in the Central Plains martial arts world, even Kublai Khan, the Khan of Mongolia, would have given him some face.

But fate played tricks on him.

Guo Jing chose to stay in Xiangyang as a Han Chinese to resist the Mongol army's southward advance.

Thinking of this, Kublai Khan looked at Lv Wenhuan with a hint of amusement.

"In this case, dispatch the Qiexue to protect General Lv's safety day and night."

Lv Wenhuan lowered his head and knelt down to thank him when he heard the order without any emotion in front of the tent.

"General Lv, the heavy responsibility of this expedition to the Southern Song navy is all on you." Kublai Khan said in a deep tone.

"I am willing to die for the Khan!"

Hearing this, Kublai Khan nodded with satisfaction.

These Han Chinese ministers are really interesting.

The reason why Kublai Khan was favored by northern literati and got their support in the fight for the position of Mongolian Khan was largely because he was proficient in Confucian classics, as if he was sinicized.

This made the literati believe that Kublai Khan was a monarch who could represent the orthodoxy of the Central Plains and respected Han culture.

However, facts have proved that Kublai Khan was not a completely sinicized monarch.

He was meticulous and his attitude towards Han officials was ambiguous. It can be said that he kept a certain distance and vigilance towards Han officials.

Let's go back to the Song-Mongol front.

As the saying goes, the storm is coming and the mountain is full of buildings.

Although the Southern Song Dynasty court was corrupt, it still showed its strength at this critical moment.

All the prefectures in the south were mobilized to gather troops under the order of the court.

According to preliminary estimates, the army mobilized by the Southern Song Dynasty was no less than 600,000!

Such a large army gathered along the Yangtze River, with great momentum.

In contrast, the Mongolian army led by Kublai Khan to the south had a total of only 300,000.

Most of them were Mongolian cavalry, who were not good at fighting in the water network in the south.

Seeing this, the officials in the Southern Song Dynasty felt relieved.

It seemed that the threat from Mongolia was just a minor disease and was not worth fearing.

So much so that they just ignored what was happening outside the window and continued to play music and dance!

However, there were still some people who saw through the situation and were in a state of panic.

Among them were the martial artists who followed Guo Jing to defend Xiangyang and fled after the city was broken.

Lü Wenhuan only knew that the martial artists who assassinated him were using the name of Huang Rong.

Actually, that was not the case.

When Huang Rong was in Xiangyang, she died with Guo Jing.

As for why they used the name of Huang Rong?

The reason is very simple.

As the largest gang in the southern martial arts world, it is the Beggars' Gang.

There are tens of millions of Beggars' Gang disciples, which is not uncommon in the Southern Song Dynasty, and Huang Rong was passed down by Hong Qigong and became the leader of the Beggars' Gang.

Guo Jing defended Xiangyang for decades, and the Beggars' Gang contributed a lot.

Even if Xiangyang was broken, the remaining Beggars' Gang disciples and the southern martial arts heroes were still a considerable force.

And the one who led this force was none other than Huang Rong and Guo Jing's eldest daughter, Guo Fu!

This is the second generation of the arrogant and willful knight in the original book.

He only repented after his parents died in Xiangyang.

No one could have imagined that

there were a large number of anti-Mongol warriors hiding in Jiangling, where the Mongolian troops were stationed.

The dark under the lamp is nothing more than this.

In a secret place, several figures looked around vigilantly, and after confirming that it was safe, they went underground along a secret passage.

This tunnel was very narrow and could only accommodate one person.

They crouched and walked around for a long time before finally coming to a spacious underground space.

The lights here were bright, and there were no less than a thousand people!

Among these people, there were ragged young men dressed as beggars, and there were also rough men with swords on their backs and blades and bad faces.

So many martial artists gathered here for the purpose of gathering intelligence.

Although the warriors were outstanding in personal strength, they could not compete with the Mongolian army.

Therefore, collecting intelligence and acting as a scout and assassination are of great use.

As for the anti-Mongol warriors present, the leading elders of the Beggar Gang and the head of the Southern Martial Arts World all looked at the plain-robed woman in front of them with burning eyes.

This person is Guo Xiang!

She is about thirty years old, and has inherited the beauty of Huang Rong, the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world, with bright eyes and white teeth.

Only her cold eyes seem to have no emotions.

Anyone who looks at her for a long time can't help but shudder, wondering if this woman is made of ice?

As for the men here, they all show respect for this Guo Fu, and dare not raise the idea of ​​belittling her.

Not to mention that Guo Fu is the eldest daughter of Guo Jing and Huang Rong, and Guo Fu has accumulated a reputation over the years.

"This time, the Mongolian Tartars want to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty in one fell swoop. If we don't want to be refugees who lose our country, we must do our best!" A man in a Confucian robe said solemnly, holding his beard.

As soon as these words came out.

A burly man carrying a big knife sneered repeatedly.

"When did the Southern Song Dynasty care about our lives? Wasn't the death of the hero Guo ignored by the court officials?"

As soon as these complaints came out.

Everyone present looked unhappy.

Yes.

These anti-Mongol heroes also had many complaints about the Southern Song Dynasty.

Or rather.

They came here more for the people, not for the continuation of the Southern Song Dynasty.

The atmosphere became slightly cold, and everyone couldn't help but look at Guo Fu, the leader.

After a while, Guo Fu just opened her mouth slightly and said: "Everyone, slow down the assassination of Lu Wenhuan."

Not only that.

Guo Fu also asked the scouts who collected intelligence on the Mongolian army to lie in ambush.

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned.

Could it be that Guo Fu had another plan in mind?

Their original plan was to collect intelligence about the Mongolian army and hand it over to Jia Sidao, the chief general of the court's anti-Mongol army.

Although there were doubts in their hearts, no one present said anything, just nodded.

After everyone left, Guo Fu was left alone in the room.

"Sister Xiang, come out."

Guo Fu looked at one side of the room and suddenly spoke.

If there were outsiders here, they would be startled. Only to see a woman in white clothes like snow quietly appeared.

Guo Fu looked at Guo Xiang with a complicated expression. The two sisters had not seen each other for several years.

When Xiangyang was broken, Guo Xiang was not in the city and escaped the war.

Guo Fu had heard earlier that her younger sister deliberately ignored the trivial matters of the world and had the intention of escaping from the world.

But she didn't expect that she would come to her on this special trip.

"Sister Fu."

Guo Xiang looked at her elder sister whose black hair turned white due to overwork, and hesitated to speak.

Seeing this, Guo Fu chuckled and said, "We haven't seen each other for several years, you should be happy, why are you so sad?"

"By the way, didn't that little monkey Lin Chen come with you today?"
