"Reject the carbine!"
"Shield Army, form up!"
"Quick, archers, aim at the enemy's heavy cavalry and fire arrows!"
Seeing the black-armored cavalry in front of him charging towards the Chinese army brazenly, King Qi also showed a bit of panic. He had never seen heavy-armored cavalry in Guanshan, so he naturally didn't know its power.
Now, just from the momentum of these thousands of galloping horses, it can be seen that it is definitely not comparable to ordinary cavalry.
"Gentlemen, don't panic!"
"With this general here, it doesn't matter if there are thousands of troops and horses. If the soldiers of my Shen Gong Battalion shoot on horseback, the strength of this cavalry will be reduced by half!"
"Generals, obey the order and throw the arrows!"
A young man in Confucian robes had a confident smile on his face. He hung a long bow on his waist and said loudly: "Line up the shield wall and set up the spear!"
"promise!"
After the military order was issued, the horse-rejecting guns were placed in front of the formation. A series of burly men held square shields and formed a shield wall in front of the formation. A ten-foot-long spear emerged from the gap in the shield, releasing cold ice. Hanmang!
"put!"
With a low shout, countless bow strings crashed together, making only one sound, and then thousands of arrows were fired, shooting towards the charging black armor cavalry.
"Yu!"
Qin Qiong put down his mace, raised his golden spear, and looked at the formation in front of him. There was no emotion on his face. As he spoke one word, the knights behind him all raised their spears.
"attack!"
The second military order was issued, and the 10,000 Xuanjia troops all accelerated their speed. The horses under their crotches vigorously raised their limbs, and smoke billowed everywhere they passed.
Arrows all over the sky fell like a meteor shower, hitting the Xuanjia Army's body, forearms, and gaps in the armor, but the Xuanjia Army's charge continued unabated.
The arrows were bounced off by the thick armor, or got stuck in the gaps of the armor. Only a few unlucky knights were shot in the eyes or horse legs and fell to the ground.
"kill!"
Qin Qiong uttered the third word and looked into the distance. Lu Bu and others had already broken into the tens of thousands of troops, and it was as if they were in a deserted place.
Yang Zaixing and Ran Min were even more like the reincarnation of evil gods. In just two quarters of an hour, their armors were soaked in blood!
"Belonging to the Xuanjia Army, charge!"
"Kill through the enemy formation!"
"No matter what happens, you must not stop charging, you will either die in battle or win a great victory!"
"promise!"
Thousands of people in black armor were lined up in formation, charging towards the central army of the allied forces of the princes with overwhelming force. Passing through the formation of horse-repelling spears, the horses directly knocked over the shield wall prepared in front of them, and the spears even knocked away figures one after another.
This is the terrifying thing about heavy cavalry. As long as the charge has begun, even if there is a sea of fire in front of them, they must flow through it unimpeded. Even if it is a mountain of swords, they must rush through it fearlessly.
"Fire the arrow!"
"Fire the arrow!"
The young scholar conveyed the orders one after another, and the sound of the bowstrings behind him never stopped. However, despite the rain of arrows, the Xuanjia Army's offensive was not hindered in the slightest.
Gradually, the surrounding princes and soldiers also noticed something abnormal. Looking at the evil figures, they couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
Arrows can't break his armor, and swords and axes can't hurt his body. How should we fight this battle?
"Your Majesty!"
"Withdraw your troops!"
A counselor next to King Qi looked deeply at the ghost-like figures in the distance. He was silent for a long time before speaking softly.
"Withdrawal?"
"Our coalition of princes has an army of 300,000 men!"
"If we withdraw our troops at this time, wouldn't we let these Central Plains brats hunt us down?"
King Qi looked closely at the counselor beside him and said gloomily: "Although their cavalry is strong, they only have more than 30,000 cavalry. Even if I fight with them, I can wear them to death."
"Your Majesty!"
"Dali has more than 30,000 soldiers and horses!"
"Now, the soldiers have lost their military morale. If we continue to fight fiercely, we may be in danger of overthrowing!"
King Qi also exhaled a deep breath, his eyes flickered for a long time, and then he said with a hint of unwillingness: "Go behind the backing army palace and order the other princes to withdraw their troops!"
"promise!"
…
Huainan.
Prince Yong's Mansion.
Ning Chen's figure appeared outside the palace. Looking at the endless stream of figures, he couldn't help but show some doubts.
This palace is a solemn and solemn place. It is unusual to see a few figures on weekdays, but the threshold of Prince Yong's palace is almost leveled, and the people coming and going are wearing different clothes.
"Your Highness?"
"Go up and ask around to find out what these people are doing in Prince Yong's Mansion."
"yes!"
After Ji Jiu bowed respectfully, he strode forward, stopped a man dressed as a businessman and asked a few questions, and then walked towards an old man dressed as a craftsman.
"Your Highness!"
"Have you asked clearly?"
"These people are here to do business in Prince Yong's Mansion."
"work?"
Ning Chen couldn't help but frown, and asked in confusion: "What are these merchants and craftsmen doing in Prince Yong's Mansion?"
"Your Highness, His Highness King Yong governs Huainan. He has two academies and three departments. Prince Yong's Mansion has two bureaus under its jurisdiction, namely the Engineering Bureau and the Commercial Bureau. The yamen of these two bureaus are located in Prince Yong's Mansion."
"Two houses, three departments and two bureaus?"
Ning Chen's face showed a bit of surprise. He raised his head and glanced at the three characters "Prince Yong's Mansion" and said softly: "Who is in charge of Prince Yong's Mansion now?"
"Back to Your Highness, the government affairs in Huainan are now presided over by Lingzhou City Secretary Chen Gong, Jia Xu and Director of the Supervisory Yuan Di Renjie."
"Um!"
"Invite the three of them to come see me."
"yes!"
Ji Jiu strode directly to Prince Yong's Mansion, took out Ning Chen's identity gold medal, and was respectfully invited into the mansion.
Not long after, three figures hurriedly came to the main hall of Prince Yong's Mansion. Looking at Ning Chen who was sitting upright, holding a few folds in his hands and looking at them carefully, his expression was a bit surprised.
"Your Majesty, please see His Highness King Sheng!"
"No gift!"
Ning Chen put down the book in his hand, made a gesture with his hand, and showed a gentle smile on his face, saying softly: "You three, I came here uninvited, what a nuisance!"
"What are you talking about, Your Highness?"
"It's just that my master is not in Huainan now..."
"Um!"
Ning Chen smiled and waved to Ji Jiu, offered seats to the three of them, and then looked at Chen Gong with great interest: "I came to Huainan today, on the order of my father, to inspect the south of the Yangtze River. I stopped by to take a look. Little brother."
"I didn't expect this kid to be so bold and have the idea of Guan Shan."
"I heard that the three of you are now in charge of certain matters in Huainan. Could you please introduce to me the current government structure in Huainan?"
"Especially the two houses and three departments, how to divide them in terms of system, policies, and powers..."
Chen Gong and Jia Xu looked at each other, both frowning slightly, but Jia Xu on the side said with a smile: "These two courtyards and three divisions were established by the lord himself after opening the palace in accordance with His Majesty's decree. Officials They are also appointed and dismissed according to His Majesty’s decree!”
"Respectively..."
