The king behind the empress

Chapter 363 Red Flame Dragonrider's First Show
As early as last night after repelling Mo Chao, Du Cang sent the news of King Yu's siege back to the capital, and he also made it clear in his heart that he would try his best to defend the court for more than five days, and hoped that the court would send a large army as soon as possible Come to support.

Mo Zizai, who had been prepared for King Yu's rebellion a long time ago, hardly hesitated, and asked Yang Yanzhang to lead the Yuzhi army to set off early the next morning. However, considering the lack of troops in Cangyi City, Mo Zizai Zizai was worried that they might not be able to hold on, so the first to set off was the [-] heavy armored cavalry of the Yuzhi Army.

The heavy armor of these [-] heavy cavalry has already been forged with the help of the elite Yuzhi army led by Yang Yanzhang.

The weight of these heavy armors made of black iron is quite astonishing. The human armor and the horse's armor are added together. If it is an ordinary person, even an ordinary body-hardened warrior, it will be directly crushed by this weight.

But these accelerated red-blooded dragons didn't respond at all. Wearing these heavy armors and carrying cavalry, they didn't seem to feel any weight. They flew straight towards Cangyi City like arrows and hooves. Hurry up, according to this speed, they will be able to reach Cangyi City in three days at most.

It is worth mentioning that the equipment made by Motie should have been dark green, but in order to match the color of the Red Blood Dragon Cone and prevent people from seeing it as Motie equipment at a glance, Yang Yanzhang made these equipment , he specially asked craftsmen to add ore that can change the color of black iron.

The final forged heavy armor is as red as blood, coupled with the original hair color of the red-blooded dragon, when marching together, their cavalry is like a group of floating flames, so Yang Yanzhang specially followed Mo Zizai asked for a designation for this team of cavalry, and that was the Chiyan Dragon Cavalry.

……

The news of this Red Flame Dragonrider's expedition could not be concealed from those who cared, so just at night, Mo Chao received a letter from Prince Yu's Mansion emphasizing this matter.

"There are only [-] heavy armored cavalry, and I don't know how this idiot Mo Zizai came up with such a genius strategy."

Mo Chao sneered, the power of heavy cavalry is strong, but it also has limitations. There has never been an invincible unit in this world. Heavy cavalry is strong, but its mobility is not good. If there is no large army to support them Create opportunities, they are just a group of living targets.

Now Mo Zizai only sent [-] heavy armored cavalry to rescue Cangyi City. Even though more than half of them were warriors, in Mo Chao's view, they were still here to die.

After receiving the letter, Mo Chao took a fancy to the messenger and asked, "What do my father and my elder brother mean?"

"Back to the second son, the prince said that you have a clearer view of the battle situation, so I let you make up your own mind."

When the messenger said this, he paused, and said cautiously: "However, the prince said that the Yuzhi army should not be underestimated. If the second son is going to deal with them, Yu Wangfu will send another part of the army to assist the second son."

"I see."

Mo Chao nodded. The meaning of his old man is already very clear. He wants to eat these Yuzhi army. After all, in terms of individual strength, the Yuzhi army is much stronger than the Habayashi army. If they can be destroyed, That is equivalent to chopping off one paw of Da Zhou, a sick tiger.

And his own thoughts obviously coincided with King Yu's. When he heard that Mo Zizai only sent [-] heavy cavalry, he wanted to eat the heavy cavalry.

In his opinion, no matter how strong this kind of individual unit is, it will give him equipment. If he can have five thousand more heavy cavalry under his command, it will not be a star for the strength of his army under his command.

Thinking of this, Mo Chao's heart was not only a little hot, but he didn't hesitate anymore, and said directly: "Go back and tell my father to send reinforcements."

"These five thousand imperial troops, I am sure!"

……

After confirming that he wanted to eat the five thousand imperial troops, Mo Chao immediately changed his style of attack against Cangyi City. Originally, Cangyi City's defensive force had already been destroyed by him. As long as he worked harder, he could defeat Cangyi City. Yicheng was completely defeated, but after the second day, he stopped attacking the city.

Every day, only a few auxiliary soldiers are sent up to tentatively attack the city. The nature of the harassment is far greater than the actual attack, and because the remaining strength of Cangyi City is too weak, these auxiliary soldiers even directly attacked the city wall a few times. several times.

It's just that every time they first boarded the city wall, the drums of retreating soldiers would sound on time from the rear, as if they were afraid that they would capture Cangyi City.

After repeating this several times, not to mention that Du Cang is extremely smart, even a fool can now see Mo Chao's intentions.

"He wants to gather some help?"

Du Cang looked at the weakly attacking army below the city, and frowned, "What kind of army has been sent in the capital to make Mo Chao pay so much attention to it?"

Logically speaking, even if the capital sent reinforcements, what Mo Chao should do now is to speed up the capture of Cangyi City, and then set up a defense line in Cangyi City, so as to face the coming crusade army from the imperial court.

But instead of speeding up to take Cangyi City, Mo Chao slowed down the pace of attack. From the looks of it, Mo Chao seemed to be afraid of taking Cangyi City and then scaring the imperial army away.

This abnormal situation immediately filled Du Cang's heart with uneasiness, but now that the army is besieging the city, the news cannot be transmitted at all, so he has no way of knowing what is going on with the court.

"No matter what army, it is a good thing for us."

Du Yu was silent for a while, and then he answered: "If Mo Chao didn't want to surround the spot for reinforcements, I'm afraid Cangyi City would have been taken down by him by now."

"That's true."

Du Yu's words immediately awakened Du Cang from his contemplation. Their Cangyi City is in danger now. No matter what army the imperial court sends, he has no time to take care of him. The only thing he can do now is that Just taking advantage of the respite given by Mo Chao, he quickly recruited soldiers from the city, and then threw them on the city wall for training.

If enough people are recruited, even if the first wave of the imperial court's army fails, he can make Cangyi City last longer.

Under the tacit understanding of the two sides, the siege suddenly became very harmonious. The siege party almost immediately retreated after hitting the top of the city, and would never continue to attack. The defender was also very polite, bow and arrow, The Rolling Stones are basically useless, relying entirely on gold juice and the swords and guns in their hands. They can be killed if they can, and if they can't be killed, they will be sent to the city wall. Anyway, they will retreat after they go up to occupy a section of the city wall. There is no need to fight them to the death.

If an outsider watched the whole process of the siege battle, they would think it was a little inexplicably funny. It was obviously a terrible fight the day before, but it turned into a play the next day. The situation changed too fast.

In this loose siege rhythm, the [-] reinforcements sent to Mo Chao by Prince Yu's Mansion quickly rushed over, and the most exaggerated thing is that this army is basically an elite with complete armor.

"The old man has really lost his blood."

Looking at the 2 troops newly sent by Prince Yu's Mansion, Mo Chao couldn't help showing a smile. With the 4 plus the remaining [-] before, the available troops in his hands reached an astonishing [-].

Such a large number of troops is almost enough to defend the border, and now it is only dealing with a Yuzhi army with only 5000 people. In Mo Chao's opinion, it is really overkill.

However, after suffering a loss, Mo Chao's arrogant personality calmed down a lot, so he didn't dislike having too many troops in his hands. Instead, he made a lot of deployments in the direction of the capital. The cavalry from the Zhi army arrived, and I promised that they would not be able to escape.

After learning on the way that Mo Chao had slowed down the pace of the siege, Yang Yanzhang stopped marching in a hurry, and specially ordered the soldiers under his command to slow down the speed of the Red Blood Dragon Cong. By the time they arrived at Cangyi City, it was almost the morning of the fifth day.

"Trenches, horse refusal, gun and shield soldiers, nothing new."

When he was four or five miles away from Mo Chao's army, Yang Yanzhang stopped with the Red Flame Dragon Rider. Opposite him, Mo Chao's army had already formed a formation. The heavy shield soldiers plus spearmen, the whole formation seems to be a hedgehog, specially arranged for them.

If the heavy cavalry rushed into the formation forcibly, although they would not be stopped directly, the front row would definitely suffer heavy losses, which would greatly reduce their sprinting speed.

On the battlefield, no matter whether it is heavy cavalry or cavalry, as long as there is no speed, it is just an infantry on a horse, and its strength is extremely limited.

Therefore, when faced with this formation, what the light cavalry should do is to attack the enemy in a roundabout way, go around its flanks, look for weak points, and then choose the opportunity to kill them.

As for the heavy cavalry, it's also very simple. Let the teammates go first, and as long as they break up their formation a little, the heavy cavalry can immediately transform into a heavy tank and crush them fearlessly.

At this moment, although the Imperial Army is equipped with heavy cavalry, it can display the speed of light cavalry. Logically speaking, it is undoubtedly the best choice to attack the enemy in a detour, but the Imperial Army is not an ordinary heavy cavalry.In addition, Mo Chao must have arrangements on the two wings, so for the sake of trouble, it is better to go up directly.

Yang Yanzhang looked at the heavy spear and shield soldiers in front of him, with a smile on his face, and then said to the left and right: "Zheng Anmin, Li Huai'en, you two, do you dare to accompany me to directly rush in and kill them in one go. "

Although Zheng Anmin's favorite white clothes were still on his body, they were covered by his red armor, which made him feel very uncomfortable all the way. Hearing Yang Yanzhang's words now, he licked his lips, He said, "Don't worry Shuai Yang, I, Zheng Anming, will never fall behind."

Li Huaien thought for a while, but couldn't think of any good words, so he said sullenly: "I am the same."

"it is good!"

Yang Yanzhang took out the inch-extended spear from his mount, pointed the spear point directly at Mo Chao's army, and said: "The last time our Yuzhi army appeared, the world was amazed, but they didn't take us seriously."

"Today is my first show of the Red Flame Dragon Knight, and it is also the second time for my Yuzhi Army to attack. I hope that after this attack, all the troops will hear about our Yuzhi Army and our Scarlet Flame Dragon Knight. Name, the first reaction is fear, that is to run away!"

Yang Yanzhang shouted and asked: "Today, five thousand against forty thousand, you can crush King Yu's army, can you do it?"

"Fight! Fight! Fight!!!!"

The morale of the Yuzhi army was immediately mobilized by Yang Yanzhang. The five thousand red flame dragon cavalry cavalry shouted loudly with their spears in their hands, and their eyes were full of fighting spirit.

Seeing Yang Yanzhang mobilizing on the battlefield, Mo Chao in the opposing army was a little confused, not sure what Yang Yanzhang was trying to do.

"What does he want to do? He doesn't want to just rush over, does he?"

The gun shield soldiers were facing the heavy cavalry, and his own side had already laid out layer by layer. If he dared to charge hard, he would have only one end in the end, that is, he would lose his mobility and be surrounded by his own army.

And with [-] to [-], the difference in strength is almost five times. If you are surrounded by yourself, then this army will undoubtedly die.

Although the commander-in-chief on the opposite side is unknown, whoever can be a commander-in-chief wouldn't be so stupid, right?

Mo Chao looked at Yang Yanzhang with some doubts. To be on the safe side, he withdrew a certain distance from the front of the army and moved to the position of the central army, so that even if Yang Yanzhang was really stupid enough to charge directly, he would never rush to him in front of.

Yang Yanzhang ignored the change in Mo Chao's position. He saw that the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry's military spirit was available, so he didn't hesitate anymore. He raised the inch-long spear in his hand and shot out immediately, "Kill!!!"

The entire Scarlet Flame Dragoon Army rushed directly towards Mo Chao's army like a torrent of red steel.

"Are they crazy?!"

The army on Mo Chao's side watched the actions of the Chiyan Dragonriders, and couldn't help but widen their eyes in shock. In front of them, there were trenches and refusal horses, not to mention that after the trenches and refusal horses, there were still such good-for-nothings. Long shot.

Knowing that there is something in front of them, they still dare to charge. Could it be that this kind of army is a fool?There is no such thing as looking for death.

It's just that this kind of thought only remained in their minds for five seconds, and after five seconds, the thought in their minds suddenly turned into fear, because the charging speed of the red-blooded dragonriders was too fast, let alone carrying a heavy load. Armored cavalry, the fastest speed of ordinary war horses is not necessarily so fast!
"Archery, archery!!!"

Looking at the speed of these heavy cavalry, Mo Chao had no time to think, and shouted in a very sharp voice, probably because of too much fear, his voice changed a little at this time.

It's just that no one paid attention to his voice at this time. After hearing his order, the archers who had been ready to go subconsciously shot a wave of arrows at the charging Red Blood Dragonrider.

Thousands of arrows shot into the air, and when they fell, it was quite spectacular, but the effect they brought was basically ineffective.

The heavy armor of the Scarlet Flame Dragonrider is completely wrapped, from head to toe, except for the eyes, there is no place exposed outside. At this moment, this wave of arrow rain hits their heavy armor, as if from the sky. Falling like a pile of straw.

Not to mention the rain of arrows causing them any harm, they were not even qualified to leave scratches on the black armor.

　When I got off work, I got caught in the rain and had a bit of a cold. I wanted to ask for leave, but I gritted my teeth and persisted. I am really great.
