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

"Does our army have no chance of winning?"

The bonfire reflected on Ying Zheng's face, revealing an angry and unwilling face.

He knew very well what the consequences would be if the Qin army retreated.

Not only will the battle be lost, but the Qin State's reputation and fame will also be destroyed.

In the Battle of Hecheng, all 150,000 Qin troops were wiped out.

If the Qin army of Feihe City is defeated again, the Qin State will completely lose the title of the world's most powerful country.

By then, the State of Jin, which has always remained neutral, might stab them in the back.

The stakes of this battle were too high, so he had to handle it with caution.

But Chu Liji said anxiously, "Your Majesty, we can't delay any longer. If we retreat now, we can still escape unscathed."

"If we retreat after being defeated, the Zhou army will surely pursue us, and our army will suffer heavy losses!"

Chu Liji's words brought Ying Zheng back to reality.

Although they did not want to retreat and did not want to lose the title of the world's most powerful country, the situation was stronger than them. If they did not withdraw their troops at this moment, only destruction would await them.

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng took a deep breath, suppressed his inner anger, turned around and looked towards the city.

His eyes passed through the dark night sky and fell on the city wall on the other side in the distance.

He knew that Wu Zhao must be there!

If Wu Zetian had not led the battle in person, the Zhou army would not have been able to have such great combat effectiveness even if they had obtained the weapons provided by Chu Ning.

All this was just because Wu Zetian led the army in person, which greatly boosted the morale of the Zhou army.

He miscalculated again!

And this time, he didn't lose to Chu Ning, but to Chu Ning's woman!

But this made him feel more uncomfortable than losing to Chu Ning.

If he lost to Chu Ning, he could admit that he was not as skilled as him.

But what does it mean to lose to Chu Ning's woman?

Does this mean that anyone Chu Ning teaches can be better than Ying Zheng?

The more he thought about it, the angrier Ying Zheng's eyes flashed with a fierce look, and he said unwillingly: "I will remember today's battle, and remember today's shame!"

After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and turned to walk towards the stairs on the city wall.

Chu Liji immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Ying Zheng did not give any orders, his actions had already told him the answer!

"Order the entire army to retreat!"

Chu Liji immediately ordered his troops: "The cavalry will go out of the city first and line up on both sides outside the city. When all the infantry in the city come out, they will be responsible for covering the rear!"

At the command, the Qin cavalry in the city rushed out.

Suddenly, all the Qin troops in the city began to gather their forces.

This scene was discovered by Zhou army spies and reported to Xue Huaide immediately.

Xue Huaide did not dare to be careless and immediately rushed to the city wall to report to Wu Zetian in person.

"Your Majesty, the Qin cavalry in the city is leaving the city, and their infantry is also gathering. It seems that they want to withdraw."

"withdraw troops?"

Wu Zhao snorted coldly when she heard this: "What kind of place is Ying Zheng in my Zhou Dynasty? He can come and go as he pleases."

"Withdraw troops? Have you asked me?"

"Send a message to General Zhao Yu, asking him to lead all the cavalry and charge immediately!"

As long as the Qin cavalry formation outside the city is broken up, the speed of the Qin army leaving the city will be reduced, and the Zhou army can take the opportunity to kill them in one go.

At this moment, Xue Huaide also realized why Zhao Yu disappeared after meeting the empress.

It turned out that the empress had already asked Zhao Yu to lead the cavalry out of the city and go around behind the Qin army.

There has been no attack, just waiting for the opportunity.

At this moment, the Qin cavalry has left the city, and they must not have formed a battle formation yet. If we rush in at this moment, we will definitely catch them off guard.

While he was lost in thought, three rockets took off!

This is a signal arrow!

At the same time, Zhao Yu, who had left the city under the cover of night, was leading his cavalry and was in a valley outside the west of the city.

Seeing the signal arrow appear in the air, Zhao Yu narrowed his eyes and a cold look flashed across his face:

"Soldiers, it's time to make achievements. If we can defeat the Qin cavalry in one fell swoop, we can threaten Ying Zheng!"

"If Ying Zheng is killed, I can't say he will be crowned king, but he will definitely be crowned marquis!"

"However, this battle is dangerous. If anyone is timid and wants to withdraw, they can stand aside now."

"If you want to achieve great things, then follow me and charge!"

With a charge, the war horses galloped and rushed towards Feihe City first.

Whether it was the White Horse Cavalry or the Zhou Army Cavalry behind him, their eyes suddenly lit up and they rushed forward.

No one wants to miss such a good opportunity to achieve success.

What's more, they clearly had the advantage. Regardless of whether they could kill Ying Zheng or not, they wanted to defeat the Qin army!

The Qin army besieged this place for a month and a half, and many of their companions were killed in the battle. How could they not avenge such a blood feud?

With strong hatred, the cavalry charged forward!

At this moment, the Qin cavalry at the city gate were stationed on the left and right, waiting for all the infantry in the city to leave before coming to cover their retreat.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the sound of horse hooves could be heard in the distance.

Everyone looked up, but could not see anything in the pitch-black night.

But cavalry were cavalry after all, and soon someone heard something was wrong.

"It's the sound of horse hooves!"

"Yes, that's the sound of war horses. Many war horses are rushing towards this side!"

"Could it be that our reinforcements have arrived?"

"Impossible, we don't have any reinforcements right now, it's very likely they are the enemy!"

The soldiers were talking about it.

Nei Shi Teng, who was in charge of the cavalry, was shocked when he heard this and made a prompt decision: "The enemy situation is unclear, deploy the defense immediately!"

It is too late to ask the infantry in the city to come out to resist now. The enemy is cavalry and is too fast. They will rush in front of them before the infantry can come out.

The only way is for their cavalry to form a defensive formation and see who the opponent is and how many people there are.

At the command, the Qin cavalry began to deploy a defensive formation.

But the charging white horse cavalry was too fast. The Qin cavalry's defensive formation was only half set up when Zhao Yu and his men arrived.

"Fire arrows!"

Before the two sides got close, Zhao Yu ordered his men to shoot arrows.

Suddenly, the White Horse Cavalryman raised his left hand and shot a sleeve arrow at the approaching Qin army.

Amid screams, the Qin army continued to fall.

Neishiteng was furious: “Charge!”

Seeing that the situation was irreversible, they could not just sit there and wait for death. The best way was to attack.

But as soon as the two sides came into contact, the White Horse Cavalry blocked the Qin army's offensive!

Just when Nei Shi Teng thought that they could break through with the advantage of military strength, the Zhou cavalry behind the White Horse Cavalry also arrived.

Suddenly, the two cavalry units merged into one, and their strength was almost the same as that of the Qin cavalry.

The Qin army was not only shocked by the momentum of the Zhou cavalry, but was also caught off guard for a moment.

Zhao Yu took the opportunity to lead the White Horse Cavalry to charge and disperse the Qin cavalry that had not yet formed a formation.

At this moment, the White Horse Cavalry was like a dagger, stabbing fiercely into the Qin Army's Iron Cavalry camp, making it impossible for the front and rear to take care of each other!

Seeing this, the Zhou army naturally did not want to fall behind, so they all rode their horses and charged forward.

After the two sides fought for a quarter of an hour, the Qin army found that their formation was constantly collapsing and was being squeezed into the city.

The situation is very unfavorable for them!

If trapped in the city, even their Emperor will not be able to leave!

Nei Shi Teng was furious when he saw this: "Go and ask His Majesty to come out immediately. I will escort him out!"

If the fighting continues like this, the emperor will die here!
