Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

Guo Xiao was somewhat surprised that Chu Ning stood idly by.

But thinking that he had paid for the clue of Princess Changping and even promised Chu Ning some benefits before, Chu Ning had no reason to refuse.

If it was someone else who stood idly by just because of a woman, he would definitely not believe it.

But Chu Ning would rather go to war with the Qin Dynasty for Princess Changping, and now he can also stand idly by for the sake of Princess Changping.

What's more, this matter was not at all favorable to Chu Ning. He didn't need Chu Ning to do anything, just wanted Chu Ning to stand by and watch.

Upon receiving the order, Yu Jing immediately mobilized his troops and rushed out of the house to chase Dongfang Su.

At this moment, Dongfang Su, who was unaware of the impending disaster, was waiting for Chu Ning outside the house.

According to the agreement, since today's alliance failed, it is time for him and Chu Ning to implement their plan.

Thinking that the front-line troops defeated the Wei State because of Cao Zhang's head, a look of pride appeared on Dongfang Su's face.

At this time, Chu Ning and his men rode towards this side on horseback.

Dongfang Su laughed loudly when he saw this and shouted, "Prince of Chu, why are you so anxious?"

But Chu Ning said in a deep voice: "The chance to take over Liuye City, how can I not be anxious, Prime Minister Dongfang, please send a signal arrow!"

Seeing that Chu Ning seemed to have no intention of stopping his horse, Dongfang Su couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that Chu Ning was anxious to capture Liuye City because their Han Dynasty had won.

"Someone, fire the signal arrow!"

At the command, three rockets were launched into the air from within the city.

Outside the south of the city, Ma Chao, who had been waiting for the signal arrow, was overjoyed when he saw this and said loudly:

"Brothers, our chance has come. The front team should be the infantry attacking the city, and the cavalry behind should prepare to charge. When the city gate is opened, follow me and charge in."

"Come on!"

"Kill!"

The Wei army guarding the city wall was shocked when they saw this. They did not expect that the Chu army outside the city would actually launch an attack.

You must know that the Chu army outside the city are all cavalry!

Although they were shocked, the defenders on the city wall prepared to resist and immediately sent someone to inform Yu Jing.

On this side, Chu Ning showed a look of satisfaction on his face after seeing the three rockets take off.

However, he did not stop his horse, but immediately headed towards Guanshan Temple in the north of the city.

He is going to find Princess Changping!

Dongfang Su looked at Chu Ning who was leaving quickly, a strange look flashed in his eyes, and he muttered to himself:

"Strange, why didn't he go to the south of the city to command the troops to seize the city gate, but went to the north of the city instead?"

As I was surprised, I suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from behind.

Turning around, he saw Yu Jing coming with a group of soldiers.

Dongfang Su's expression changed slightly.

Could it be that Yu Jing discovered the situation in the south of the city?

Something seemed to be wrong. It was completely out of the direction he and Chu Ning had planned.

"Prime Minister, the Wei army is murderous and seems to have ill intentions towards us!" a personal soldier nearby reminded.

Dongfang Su no longer hesitated and made a prompt decision: "Go to the south of the city. If our people and Chu Ning's cavalry seize the south gate of the city, the Chu army outside the city will rush in, and then we will be safe!"

"Hurry, head south of the city!"

At the command, the Han soldiers protecting Dongfang Su immediately headed south of the city.

Yu Jing, who was chasing behind, saw this and his face changed drastically. He hurriedly shouted: "Prime Minister Dongfang, don't leave. My prime minister has something to discuss with you!"

But Dongfang Su sneered and said, "If you have something to discuss, why are you so murderous and bring so many soldiers with you?"

"General Yu Jing, do you think I am a fool?"

As he spoke, he kept waving the whip in his hand, urging the horse to speed up.

Yu Jing, who was behind, saw that he couldn't get Dongfang Su and the others to stop, so he stopped pretending and immediately gave the order:

"Fire arrows!"

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

Sharp arrows whizzed out, instantly killing a large number of Han soldiers behind them.

"Prime Minister, this is bad, they are taking action!"

"Damn it! I never thought they would really disregard morality and dare to attack the delegation!"

Dongfang Su roared: "Fight back!"

Since the Wei army took action first, he had no reason to be reserved and immediately ordered a counterattack.

The Han army, galloping on horseback, immediately drew their bows and arrows and shot at the Wei army chasing them.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

The Wei army that was chasing on horseback did not expect that the Han army would actually fight back. Several people were shot and killed, and it even affected the speed of their companions behind them.

But Yu Jing held a spear, led the charge, and wielded the spear to shoot down the incoming arrows.

"We must catch up with them and capture them all!"

Yu Jing's eyes flashed with anger and he spurred his horse in pursuit.

The two sides were chasing and fleeing, and they were getting closer and closer to the south of the city.

At the same time, Chu Ning, who was heading north of the city, also received the news.

A Jinyiwei came to report: "Your Highness, the Wei army and the Han army are fighting, Yu Jing is leading his troops to hunt down Dongfang Su!"

Chu Ning nodded slightly when he heard this, and asked loudly while galloping on his horse, "What's the situation in the south of the city?"

The Jinyiwei said in a deep voice: "According to your instructions, our army will launch an attack outside the city to attract the attention of the defenders in the south of the city. Then our white horse cavalry in the city will cooperate with the Han Dynasty envoys in the city to control the city gate in one fell swoop!"

"General Ma Chao has now entered the city and is seizing the city wall!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yu on the side was overjoyed: "Liuye City is easy to defend but difficult to attack, but once we break into the city, it will be our army's world!"

Although all the soldiers under Ma Chao's command are cavalry, their fighting power is still strong even without war horses.

Moreover, there are not too many Wei troops in the south of the city. As long as the Chu army pours in in large numbers, coupled with the cooperation of the white horse cavalry in the city and the Han Dynasty delegation's troops, they will be able to capture the south of the city!

Taking over the south of the city is equivalent to occupying half of Liuye City.

And this is Chu Ning and Dongfang Su’s plan.

They knew that once the Han army defeated the Wei army on the front line, Guo Xiao would definitely take action against them, so they had to act in advance.

But the Wei army occupied the city and had the advantage of geographical location. They were trapped inside the city. Once Guo Xiao attacked them, they would die at Guo Xiao's hands before the troops outside the city could break through.

Therefore, they must strike first.

First, let the three parties form an alliance to attract the attention of Guo Xiao and Yu Jing.

Then the Chu cavalry outside the city attacked, attracting the attention of the defenders on the city wall.

But the real killer move was the white horse cavalry guarding Chu Ning in the city and the Han army delegation.

There were 500 white horses around Chu Ning, and 1,000 Han army envoys. Half of them were assigned to protect Chu Ning and Dongfang Su, and the others all participated in the battle for the south city gate.

Now that the south of the city has been breached, the next step is to wait for Yu Jing to kill Dongfang Su, and then they will drive the Wei army out of Liuye City!

Zhao Yu was full of admiration for such a plan.

Of course, more importantly, they learned the news about Princess Changping from Guo Xiao!

This is an unexpected surprise.

Chu Ning finally smiled at this moment, looked towards the west of the city, and said with a smile:

"According to the time, Yu Jing should have caught up with Dongfang Su. I hope he won't curse after learning the truth."

After saying that, Chu Ning couldn't help laughing out loud, and then immediately rode his horse towards Guanshan Temple.
