As expected, most of the people who rushed to the city stopped, neither attacking the city nor sitting down.

Obviously, they still want to wait and see.

If Li Yongxuan could lead his army to resist the Mongolian army, there would be no need for them to attack the city, aid the tyranny, and waste their lives.

If Li Yongxuan was unable to resist the Mongolian army, then they would try to capture the city, and maybe there would be a way out.

There are also some people who want to make meritorious deeds or are spies of the Mongolian army. They instigate those around them to attack the city together.

Li Yongxuan saw it clearly, and personally operated the artillery at the top of the city, firing several shots, blasting those people into pieces of flesh and blood, leaving the refugees on the side shocked and terrified.

Seeing that the refugees' plan to attack the city failed, Wu Lianghetai asked Chahan and Zhang Rou to lead their troops to massacre the refugees.

Since these refugees are disobedient, what is the use of keeping them?

We can only kill him, kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, and let other people know how powerful he is!

Although Li Yongxuan had people dig a trench to allow the refugees to escape the attack, there were too many refugees, the area was too small, and there was no armor. In the blink of an eye, many refugees died from the random arrows and swords of the Mongolian army.

under.

The Song army at the top of the city began to counterattack, and continuously fired artillery shells at the Mongolian army outside the city to attack.

The main target of artillery is Mongolian siege vehicles. Once it hits, the vehicle will be destroyed and people will be killed; if it misses, it will hit the Mongolian army and cause a lot of casualties.

Even city walls can be destroyed, let alone siege vehicles and people.

Wu Lianghetai was shocked when he saw this scene.

Unexpectedly, the Song Dynasty people could produce such powerful artillery. If the Mongols also had it, what city could they not capture?

Chahan and Zhang Rou were surprised to see dozens of artillery pieces in Xingyang.

They had seen dozens of artillery pieces in Nanyang before, and there were dozens more artillery pieces here. How could the Song Army suddenly have so many such powerful artillery pieces?

Unless the Mongolian army disperses its attack, the artillery will hit accurately.

The question is, how powerful is the scattered attack? How to attack the city?

Li Yongxuan ordered hundreds of artillery bombardments to continue, destroying more than a dozen siege vehicles and killing hundreds of Mongolian troops.

Although the number of casualties was not large, the psychological impact was very great. The morale of the troops was frustrated and their morale was low. More importantly, how could they attack the city after nearly half of the siege vehicles were destroyed?

In desperation, Wu Lianghetai could only reluctantly agree that Chahan and Zhang Rou temporarily withdraw their troops.

Taking this opportunity, Li Yongxuan ordered people to open the city gate and send 10,000 horses out of the city to dispose of the corpses of the refugees.

He asked the refugees outside the city for help and waited until the scene was properly handled before letting the refugees into the city.

In order to prevent these people from being spies and causing chaos in Xingyang City, Li Yongxuan concentrated them in the south of the city and sent people to guard them.

After the brutal massacre by the Mongolian army, tens of thousands of refugees were killed and nearly half were injured, and only more than 20,000 people escaped.

That is, "defend Tongguan in the west and the Yellow River in the north" to confront Mongolia, which requires the recovery of the Central Plains including Kaifeng Prefecture in Tokyo, Henan Prefecture in Xijing and Yingtian Prefecture in Nanjing.
