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

The arrival of Empress Wu Zhao of the Zhou Dynasty and 30,000 imperial troops changed the situation in Feihe City!

The Chu-Zhou coalition forces, which had been defeated, stabilized and began to eat the newly obtained steamed buns frantically.

At the same time, in order to protect the empress, many people ate while changing into the armor and weapons brought by the imperial guards.

"This armor seems different from ours?"

"This weapon is so sharp. I accidentally stabbed it into my old armor just now, and it pierced it directly!"

"I have heard about the Chu army's magic weapons for a long time, but I didn't expect to see them here today. With these magic weapons in hand, our army will definitely be able to repel the Qin army!"

"That's right. We have reinforcements. Our troops are not much less than the Qin army. We can give it a try!"

"Look, the Imperial Guards have already started fighting with the Qin Army!"

While the Zhou army was eating steamed buns and changing their armor, the Zhou imperial guards who rushed forward had already engaged the Qin army.

The two sides rushed towards each other like two steel torrents!

In a private house, Xue Huaide ate the steamed bun in his hand fiercely, waved his right hand, and said loudly:

"Crossbowman, shoot the arrow!"

Arrows rained down from the sky like locusts, rushing towards the Qin army camp with a whistling sound.

But Chu Liji, who was commanding the battle, was not surprised by this and sneered, "Shieldmen, charge!"

The Qin army's shield bearers raised their bronze shields high and immediately rushed forward.

"Puff~Puff~Puff~"

"Ah~"

Amidst the screams, the Qin army's shields were pierced by sharp arrows as if they were made of paper, and the shield soldiers behind them fell to the ground and died one after another.

This scene shocked the Qin army.

Even Chu Liji's face changed drastically: "This... How is this possible!"

The Qin army’s shields are very thick, how could the sharp arrows penetrate them!

At this time, Nei Shi Teng came forward with a blood-stained arrow and said in a deep voice: "General Chu, the Qin army's arrows are from the Chu State!"

Chu Liji was shocked and quickly took the arrow and took a look. He found that the arrow was made of special material.

"It looks like they came prepared!"

Chu Liji turned his head and looked at the city wall behind him. He knew that his majesty was watching him.

His every move will affect the victory or defeat of the Qin army in this battle!

But now that the fight has begun, there is no turning back!

Thinking of this, Chu Liji made a prompt decision, his eyes were cold, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Since their arrows are so powerful, let's rush over and fight them in close combat!"

As long as they get close, the Zhou army archers will not dare to shoot arrows, because that would even kill their own people!

"Yes!" Nei Shi Teng responded and immediately went down to pass on the order.

At the command, the Qin army did not retreat but advanced, suddenly accelerating and rushing towards the Zhou army.

Xue Huaide seemed to have anticipated this. He waved his right hand and ordered, "Shoot three rounds of sharp arrows in a row!"

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~”

Three rounds of sharp arrows were fired one after another, hitting a large area of the Qin army that was rushing up.

Originally on the street, due to geographical restrictions, the Qin army could only charge in intensive manner.

Three rounds of sharp arrows fell, and hundreds of Qin soldiers' bodies fell on the street.

But even so, the powerful Qin army did not retreat. Instead, with red eyes, they rushed forward and stepped on the corpses of their companions.

"Kill!"

"Come on!"

The Qin army's roar of killing shook the sky, and after passing the corpses, they rushed to the front of the Zhou army's imperial guards.

The fully armed imperial guards waved their weapons and started fighting without saying a word.

Suddenly, deafening shouts of killing were heard from several streets.

The weapons continued to clash, and thousands of sparks flew!

Soldiers from both sides fought and people kept falling down!

The pungent blood continued to flow through the gaps between the corpses.

At this moment, the sky had darkened and the soldiers on both sides had to start lighting torches.

On the city wall, Ying was sitting upright.

The bonfire nearby flickered in the night wind, shining on Ying Zheng's face, making him look moody.

Looking at the torches of both sides constantly surging, Ying Zheng's face became more and more gloomy.

Half an hour passed. Although the Qin army was a little nervous at the beginning, for some reason, the number of torches on the Zhou army's side increased.

Even on some streets, the torches on the Qin army's side were extinguished, which showed that the Qin army over there had been completely defeated!

"Let Chu Liji send someone to find out the battle situation immediately!" Ying Zheng gave the order with a cold face.

As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier came to report: "Your Majesty, the Zhou army's troops have joined the battle after resting!"

"For some reason, these people's morale has suddenly soared. They can fight on equal terms with our army. Their imperial guards are very powerful. Our army... our army..."

"What's wrong with our army?" Ying Zheng asked with a cold face, staring at the man.

"Our army is so fast that we can't resist it!"

The soldier quickly explained: "The weapons used by the Zhou army are very sharp. Our shields can't resist them, and our bows and arrows can't penetrate their shields!"

"With the advantages of weapons and armor, the Zhou army has begun to gain the upper hand."

As soon as these words came out, Ying Zheng's heart sank.

No wonder Wu Zhao dared to lead the troops in person, it turned out that she had obtained weapons and armor from the State of Chu.

Chu Ning, Chu Ning, you really trust Wu Zhao so much that you actually gave the secrets of your dynasty to others.

He had thought of everything, but this was the only thing he hadn't thought of.

Chu Ning's mind was far beyond his expectations!

If the Zhou army had not obtained these weapons and armor, they would not have been his opponent at all, and he was confident that he could capture Wu Zhao alive.

But now that Zhou Jun knows about the magical weapon, the final outcome of this battle may not be what he wants.

Now there are only two paths before him.

Either he would go all the way to the end and order the Qin army to fight to the death. Perhaps they would win, but if they failed, he himself would be left here.

Either stop the loss in time, order a withdrawal now, and rush back to Qin with troops immediately!

As he was hesitating, the sound of hurried footsteps interrupted Ying Zheng's thoughts.

When I looked up, it was Chu Liji.

"See Your Majesty!"

"You are not commanding at the front line, why are you here?" Ying Zheng asked with a gloomy face.

Chu Liji looked helpless: "Your Majesty, after half an hour of fierce fighting, our army has gained nothing!"

"If we continue to fight, not only will our army not be able to gain any advantage, we may even be left here."

"I dare to suggest that you evacuate this city immediately!"

This is the answer I got after trying a few attacks!

It is also a helpless move!

Who would want to admit defeat and retreat unless it was absolutely necessary?

But now, the Zhou army, relying on its magic weapons, is in great momentum after blocking the attack of the Qin army.

Now the Zhou army is no longer just defending, but has started to counterattack!

If the situation is allowed to continue, once all the troops of both sides are trapped inside, the Qin army will not be able to withdraw from the city.

The defeat in Hecheng is still fresh in people’s minds, and Chu Liji doesn’t want to become a sinner of Qin!

So, he came in person to ask Ying Zheng to withdraw his troops!

Ying Zheng became furious when he heard this. He slapped the seat under him and stood up suddenly. The seat immediately broke into pieces with a "crack".

"What did you say?"

Ying Zheng stared at Chu Liji: "You want me to admit defeat and withdraw my troops?"
