Summoning the Mythical Eternal Emperor

Chapter 169 Expectation
Zhao Yuankai frowned.

Yuan Shichong's rebellion came sooner than he expected.

Right now, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry has just realized that everyone is equipped with ring-head knives, and one hundred giant bed crossbows have just been equipped!

Li Buhui and Wang Meng had each led [-] Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to control the highlands flanking the defense line.

Standing in front of Zhao Yuankai, Chen Qingzhi looked cold and uneasy!
Don't talk about Chen Qingzhi.

Even Zhao Yuan opened his own, and his heart was quite uneasy at this moment.

Because this time the battle is different from before.

This is Zhao Yuankai's first defensive counterattack after crossing over!

Previously, it was a surprise attack and an onslaught, which took advantage of the right time, place and people, and caught it by surprise.

But this time!
Zhao Yuankai knew too little about the Yuan family of Yanmen.

Moreover, the opponent's military advantage is too great, and they are completely prepared.

At the time of the fourth watch.

The scout reported again:
"Your Majesty, then... the Yuan family of Yanmen raised hundreds of thousands of troops, and they have already crossed the Motuo River!"

"In addition, according to the villain's desperate investigation, there is a terrifying cavalry in the Yuanmen army. That cavalry is connected by iron chains, and the five horses are one. The momentum is extremely terrifying!"

Connected by iron chain?

Five horses as one?
Isn't this the chain cavalry that Zhao Yuankai calculated?

Chen Qingzhi was stunned, and stared at Zhao Yuankai with disbelief, awe and respect in his eyes.

"Your Majesty is right, Yuan Shichong is really building iron chain cavalry."

"The chain cavalry enhances the impact and lethality of the cavalry, but at the same time sacrifices the mobility of the cavalry, and they cannot climb slopes. Only by charging on flat ground or downhill can they display terrifying combat effectiveness!"

Chen Qingzhi analyzed it coldly.

Zhao Yuankai nodded and said:

"If there is no accident, Yuan Shichong will rely on his superiority in military strength to attack our defensive front head-on!"

"And, they'll be fast, at any cost!"

"Ziyun, order the Tianzi Division to prepare for battle!"

"The end will be ordered!"

Chen Qingzhi kowtowed and walked out in a few steps.

In the tent, Zhao Yuankai stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes were cold and deep.

His deduction logic is not wrong.

The Yuan family of Yanmen really made a big fuss about the impact of the cavalry.

If he hadn't crossed over, he would have created a saddle stirrup and a ring knife, and at the same time built an imperial heavy weapon bed crossbow.

In this battle, the Han army was still at the stage of infantry fighting, and it was no match for the Yuanmen cavalry at all!

at this time.

In the place where the son of heaven mastered Chen Bing, the drums were beating, and the momentum was shocking!
The first beating of the drum is to prepare for battle, and quickly enter the state of combat readiness!
After one hundred giant bed crossbows built a high defense line, each one was equipped with fifty white-robed soldiers to operate, 40 people stretched the crossbows, eight people transported the giant whole bamboo arrows, and the remaining two were responsible for pulling the firing trigger. !

And as of before midnight.

Each giant bed crossbow is already equipped with [-] giant whole bamboo arrows!
One hundred seats equals thirty thousand rounds!

This number is enough, greatly exceeding Zhao Yuankai's original fifty giant bed crossbows and five thousand giant arrows.

So before midnight.

The scouts lying on the ground in front of them heard the urgent military situation, saying that the Xihe Corridor is shaking and the mountains are shaking, and there is a time when the army will move south to press down on the border.

Zhao Yuankai then ordered the Heavy Industry Division to retreat to Shangjun as a whole!
The engineers of the empire are extremely valuable in Zhao Yuankai's eyes, and they must not be used to take risks!

It's time.

It was half an hour before the fifth watch.

On the high slope on the left flank of the Tianzi Division's defense line in Beiyuan, Shangjun, Li Buhui wore a sword with a ring around his waist, a small iron ring was forged on the handle of the sword, and he wore a red cloth scarf!

On the back, there are two quivers crossed on the back, and there are two quivers tied to the horse below him!

The [-] tiger and leopard riders behind them were divided into fifteen squadrons of suspended cavalry, each with a black scarf covering his face, wearing a sword around his waist, and each carrying four quiveres and one hundred arrows!
"Tigers and leopards obey orders!"

"Once the enemy is found rushing up the high slope, immediately shoot back the enemy with feathered arrows, and the Chexuan cavalry team pays attention to pull around and attack from the side!"

"Remember, the Beirong cavalry of Yuanmen's anti-army didn't have saddles and stirrups, let alone ring swords!"

"They are not as fast as us, they are not as accurate as us when riding and shooting, and their swords are not as sharp as our ring knives! Also, our individual combat power is several times stronger than theirs!"

"So listen, even if we are faced with [-] cavalry charging, we are still no match for us!"

After Li Buhui took a deep breath, he roared with great confidence and amazing fighting spirit!
This is not empty talk!
Today's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry's individual combat strength is already the first among the big men, more than half of them are fierce soldiers who have stepped into the realm of martial arts, and the rest are also majestic fierce men!
With the ring first knife, practice the car and hang the formation!
Li Buhui is also looking forward to it now, how strong is the true combat power of this small number of tiger and leopard cavalry that has devoted so much effort today!

Looking back, looking.

Fifteen carts of suspended cavalry, each with black scarves covering their faces, only showing their eyes.

They stood quietly and did not move, but said that the terrifying murderous intent and evil spirit emitted shocked Li Buhui immediately!
"Your Majesty, Buhui will definitely not let you down!" Li Buhui secretly said.

Shang County.

The main gate tower.

Zhao Yuanlang stood on the tower, his face was extremely pale, and he stared at the place where the son of heaven, Chen Bing, was holding his heart.

The sound of beating drums that shook the sky one after another made his mood even more dull and restless!
"Mo Li."

"I heard that Yuan Shichong can raise more than 20 troops, and half of them are cavalry with invincible impact. You...do you think the emperor's 3-strong Tianzi Division can stop it?"

Zhao Yuanlang couldn't help asking, his voice trembling slightly.

Since that day when he greeted the emperor at the south gate of Shangjun, he has been arranging the emperor's palace in Shangjun, but Zhao Yuan couldn't open the tent of the emperor's division, and Zhao Yuanlang didn't pass an edict, so he couldn't step into the camp of the emperor's division.

Therefore, he knew nothing about the situation on the front line.

Li Li was standing beside him, his whole body was still wrapped in a black scarf, only his eyes were exposed, dim and lifeless.

"Your Majesty, if His Majesty didn't retreat to the county, it means he has his own countermeasures. Please rest assured, Your Majesty!" Mo Li said.

"I hate this king, I am useless, I can't help the emperor's brother to solve the problem, but in such a big battle, I retreat behind the front line and can't do anything!"

Zhao Yuanlang took a deep breath, extremely annoyed and ashamed.

He knew the significance of this battle.

Winning, the imperial power of the Han Dynasty has completely gained a firm foothold!
If you lose, the Han Dynasty will be destroyed, and the dynasty will change!

……

Fifth watch!
Motuo River is five miles down the river.

Yuan Shichong ordered again to stop the march and make the last pre-war order!

This place is only ten miles away from Emperor Tianwu's defensive front, and Yuan Shichong's 20 army has just gone through the most strategic rest for two hours, and its morale is the highest at this time!
