Emperor: When will the Seventh Prince rebel? I will open the city gates to welcome him.

Shangguan Qingya held the hand of Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan and said in a pleading tone:

"Your Highness! Qingya will go with you. Whether in the southern border or the northern border, Qingya will be by your side."

Hongxuan gently stroked Shangguan Qingya's hair.

"This world is not peaceful. Qingya, I am relieved that you are in the palace. I will be back soon."

Shangguan Qingya silently released the hand that she was holding on Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan.

The King of Zhenbei does not belong only to the three of them, but to the entire Dafeng and the entire world.

Murong Qin cried:

"Your Highness! When you said goodbye to Qin'er and my sister last time, you said you would be back soon, but you have been gone for half a year."

"Qin'er hopes that the prince can always think of us, and not find a new love outside and not come back home!"

After hearing what Murong Qin said, Zhenbei King Hongxuan felt confused.

"Qin'er! I'm not that kind of person. How could I have a new love and not return home?"

Murong Yan pulled Murong Qin behind her and scolded:

"Qin'er! Don't talk nonsense, or your words will come true! The prince already has the three of us, he won't go out to have fun and not come home again!"

Hongxuan looked at Murong Yan, Murong Qin and Shangguan Qingya.

"Stop having these random thoughts and go back home!"

Hongxuan was in no mood to have fun. His enemy, Yun Yi, the military strategist of Beishang Kingdom, was more powerful than he had imagined.

Learned how to improve weapons and equipment.

It can be said that Yun Yi fought a great comeback.

If I didn't have a backup plan, it would be hard to say who would win.

The King of Zhenbei led his personal guards and the Qilin Guard to the northern border.

"This time, I must pacify the Northern Shang Kingdom."

"Establish my own regime within the Northern Business Kingdom."

Beyond the northern border,

Baidicheng

The four directions of east, south, west and north have been surrounded by the cavalry of the Northern Shang Kingdom.

The 50,000 Dafeng infantrymen in Baidi City have become trapped.

Outside Baidi City, the cavalry of the Northern Shang Kingdom set up a defense line and set up camp.

The four camps just surrounded Baidi City.

In the northern camp.

Yun Yi sat steadily in the military tent. He looked at General Ji Xuelun who was reporting the military situation to him:

"How many crossbowmen of the Dafeng Army died today?"

The burly and sturdy General Ji responded respectfully:

"Reporting to the military advisor, more than 3,000 crossbow infantrymen of the Dafeng Kingdom were shot dead today."

After hearing his subordinates report that 3,000 people were shot and killed today, Yun Yi raised his lips:

"Then how many of our Northern Shang cavalry were killed?"

General Ji responded respectfully:

"Reporting to the Imperial Master, the Imperial Master's strategy is unparalleled in the world. Since listening to the Imperial Master's strategy, none of our Northern Merchant Cavalry has been killed!"

Yun Yi raised the corners of his mouth and laughed loudly:

“Hahaha! The King of Zhenbei sent his troops to engage in direct combat with our Beishang cavalry, but he actually shot and killed 180,000 Beishang cavalry without losing a single soldier!”

"In this battle, our division will make the Dafeng infantrymen who once killed our Beishang cavalry feel the taste of despair."

"We must also let the King of Zhenbei know how powerful our national teacher is!"

General Ji was full of admiration.

"The Imperial Master is the true God of War!"

After Zhao Bencai commanded an army of 60,000 troops into Baidi City, they occupied the commanding heights.

Originally, Beishang State Master planned to attack directly by force.

However, General Zhao Bencai of the Dafeng Kingdom used kerosene in Baidi City and shot directly at the chariots, horses and shields from a high position.

Although the plate of the chariot and horse shield is made of pure iron.

However, the wheels and part of the chariot's drive were made of wood. When they encountered the kerosene crossbows, they caught fire directly. The combination of the crossbow arrows and kerosene repelled an attack by the Northern Shang cavalry.

This saved the lives of 50,000 Dafeng soldiers.

But the next question.

There is not enough water in Baidi City and there is an extreme shortage of water. The water source is a freshwater lake 500 meters away from Baidi City.

Zhao Bencai ordered soldiers to fetch water several times, but all of them were shot dead.

The Northern Shang cavalry deployed heavy troops at the water source without any effort.

In the northern military tent, a maid brought a pot of milk tea and poured it for Yun Yi. Yun Yi tasted the fragrant milk tea as if he was enjoying the fruits of victory.

"The King of Zhenbei should have known that his army was killed by his own master, 40,000 of them were killed and 50,000 were trapped."

"The King of Zhenbei has done the same thing. If he dares to come, let him have a taste of the power of the cavalry led by our national teacher and the crossbows!"

Inside the main hall of Baidi City, Zhao Bencai discussed countermeasures with senior officers of the army group.

Yu Shunshen showed a look of despair:

"The situation is extremely unfavorable to us. We originally thought we could support it for fifteen days, but now the water supply in the city is estimated to only support about six days!"

"Without water for six days, all the soldiers in our army will probably suffer from severe dehydration and die of thirst."

Teng Wanzhi said with an extremely ugly expression:

"We originally wanted to fight the Beishang cavalry to the death, but we didn't expect that Beishang's national teacher Yun Yi would actually want to trap us to death here without any soldiers!"

Zhao Bencai shook his head and said:

"The Beishang State Master Yun Yi didn't intend to trap us to death, but to use us as bait."

"In order to lure the King of Zhenbei to fight, we could kill him. So when we first attacked, Yun Yi didn't kill us at all, but drove us all into Baidi City."

"Only by killing the King of Zhenbei can Yun Yi attack Dafeng with peace of mind."

After listening to Zhao Bencai's analysis, everyone suddenly realized.

Zhao Bencai’s analysis is exactly what Yun Yi is thinking.

Zhao Bencai looked at everyone and continued:

"This is a moment of life and death for our Dafeng Nation."

"The Northern Shang Kingdom now also has composite crossbows. Combined with war horses, their cavalry's combat effectiveness has actually surpassed our Dafeng Kingdom's army."

This is very pessimistic news.

The advantage of Dafeng Kingdom in military strength no longer exists. Both sides possess the same extremely lethal composite military crossbows. Moreover, according to the wisdom of Beishang State Master, Beishang Kingdom will definitely be able to produce equally powerful composite military crossbows next.

There are also iron ore resources within the territory of Beishang.

It was just as General Zhao Bencai expected.

Inside the central hall of Kangding City in Beishang Kingdom.

Emperor Basin was overjoyed. He looked at the one hundred composite military crossbows laid out in the hall and picked up one of them to examine it carefully.

"Hahaha! Great! Really great! There are two wheels placed at each end of the bowstring."

"This design is so ingenious! It's really amazing!"

"No wonder it's so powerful. This structural design is four times more powerful than ordinary crossbow arrows!"

Baxin once again picked up a military crossbow arrow made of pure iron.

He narrowed his eyes and looked at the pure iron crossbow arrow, and said in amazement:

"The arrow is so slender, the tip is so sharp, and it's made of pure iron. No wonder it has such a strong attack power!"

"Ordinary leather armor can't withstand it at all! How can leather armor withstand such penetration and attack power? No wonder the heavy cavalry of our Beishang Kingdom fell under the shooting of the crossbowmen of the Dafeng Kingdom."
