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

As night fell, the battlefield was still ablaze with flames and the sounds of killing were endless.

Soldiers from both sides fought at night with torches on, and the light from the torches shone on everyone's face, making them look particularly ferocious.

In the Chu-Zhou coalition camp, swords and sabers clashed, blood dyed the ground red, and corpses piled up like mountains.

The Qin army's offensive was like a tide, wave after wave. The soldiers led by Guan Yun relied on the camp to resist tenaciously, but the Qin army was large in number. As more and more Qin soldiers rushed into the camp, the defense line of the Chu-Zhou coalition forces gradually collapsed, and half of the entire camp fell into the hands of the Qin army.

The Qin army's shouts of killing shook the earth and their morale was high, as if victory was just around the corner.

In the rear camp, Empress Wu Zhao of the Great Zhou Dynasty was restless. She walked quickly to Chu Ning and said anxiously:

"The Qin army's offensive is too fierce. If it continues like this, General Guan Yun will soon be unable to hold on! Why not send troops to support from the east? Half of the Jin army in the east has been destroyed, and part of the Zhou army over there can be transferred here to resist the Qin army!"

Chu Ning, however, looked calm, his eyes deep as the abyss. He shook his head slightly and said firmly: "The troops in the east cannot move."

Wu Zhao was stunned. She didn't expect Chu Ning to still insist at this time.

Is it for face?

Don't want to embarrass yourself in front of her?

But this doesn't seem to be Chu Ning's character.

While Wu Zhao was deep in thought, Chu Ning said calmly: "However, now the time has come, my plan can be implemented."

After that, he raised his hand and waved, ordering the messenger beside him: "Send the signal!"

The messenger immediately lit three signal arrows, and with a few "whoosh" sounds, three beams of fire cut through the night sky and shot straight into the sky.

The light of the signal arrow was particularly eye-catching in the night sky, like three shooting stars, indicating that Chu Ning's killing move was about to be launched.

At the same time, on the western battlefield, Feng Mulan was fighting fiercely with Ying Ji's Qin army.

The heavy sword in her hand swung like the wind, and the light sword at her waist was as flexible as a snake.

Feng Mulan's tactics were extremely clever. When she encountered Qin's shieldmen, she would chop them hard with her heavy sword, and the shields would instantly shatter under the power of the heavy sword.

When facing ordinary soldiers, she would put on a light sword, and the sword light would be as fast as lightning, quickly taking the enemy's life.

Her figure shuttled across the battlefield like a ghost, and wherever she went, the Qin army fell one after another.

At this moment, Feng Mulan's messenger saw the signal arrow sent by Chu Ning and immediately reported to her.

A cold light flashed in Feng Mulan's eyes, and then she ordered: "Throw the hemp bomb!"

The soldiers of the Chu-Zhou coalition quickly took out hemp bombs from their waists, lit the fuses, and threw them hard into the Qin army's formation.

Hemp bombs are simple bamboo tube bombs made of sulfur. When they explode, they not only make a loud noise but also produce thick smoke.

The Qin army was caught off guard, and hemp bombs exploded one after another in their formation, and suddenly flames and smoke filled the air.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Explosions rang out one after another, and the Qin army soldiers were blown to the ground.

Someone's arm was injured by the explosion and blood was flowing!

Some people were choked by the smoke and couldn't open their eyes and kept coughing!

Others were knocked to the ground by the shock wave of the explosion and were unable to get up for a while.

Although the power of the hemp bomb was not enough to be fatal, it caused heavy losses to the Qin army and greatly reduced morale.

Seeing this, Feng Mulan immediately seized the opportunity, raised her heavy sword high, and shouted sternly: "All troops, listen to my order, follow me and charge!"

She led the Youzhou troops and rushed towards the Qin army like a tiger descending from a mountain. The Qin army's formation was in chaos, and the soldiers were panicked and retreated one after another.

Feng Mulan's heavy sword swept across like a hurricane, and her light sword stabbed out like lightning. The Qin army was defeated under her attack, and a hole was torn in the western defense line in an instant.

On the wall of Julu city, Ying Zheng saw this scene and his face was as gloomy as water.

Xian Zhen, who was beside him, was chained and covered in wounds, but he still sneered and mocked:

"Ying Zheng, did you see that? Once Feng Mulan's 50,000 Youzhou troops break through Ying Ji's defense line, the front battlefield will definitely be affected.

Your chances of winning are not as great as you think!"

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng became furious and pulled the chain violently, causing Xian Zhen to groan in pain.

Ying Zheng said coldly: "Xian Zhen, don't be too proud too soon! No matter how powerful Feng Mulan is, she can't change the overall situation!"

After that, he turned around and ordered Wang Xing, the commander of the imperial guards beside him: "Wang Xing, you immediately lead the imperial guards out of the city to support Ying Ji, and make sure to stop Feng Mulan's attack!"

Wang Xing's face changed when he heard this, and he hurriedly tried to dissuade him, "Your Majesty, the Imperial Guards are your personal guards. If you mobilize them all, the city will be empty and something unexpected may happen! Your Majesty, please think twice!"

Ying Zheng's eyes were like knives, and his tone left no room for doubt: "Wang Xing, this battle is of great importance. If Ying Ji loses, the entire battle will collapse!

You must lead your troops out of the city to ensure that Yingji's defense line is not breached! As for the city, I am here, so there is no need to worry!"

Seeing Ying Zheng's firm attitude, Wang Xing had no choice but to grit his teeth and obey: "I obey your order!"

He looked at Ying Zheng deeply, his eyes full of worry and loyalty, then turned around and led 10,000 imperial troops out of the city and headed straight for the battlefield in the west.

He was well aware of the importance of this battle. Once Ying Ji's defense line was breached, Feng Mulan would bring his troops to join the front battlefield.

At this moment, the Qin army in the front has no defense on the west, and Feng Mulan's Youzhou troops will definitely attack, and the Qin army in the front will definitely be caught off guard.

But now the Qin army has deployed all its troops to the battlefield, and the only one that can be mobilized is his imperial guards.

Although he was concerned about the emperor's safety, he could not disobey the emperor's orders, so he could only take his troops to support Ying Ji.

With the addition of Wang Xing's 10,000 imperial guards, Yingji's defense line was finally stabilized.

However, Feng Mulan's offensive was still fierce. Ying Ji was worried and immediately sent troops back to the city to request Zhang Han to capture the Chu-Zhou coalition camp as soon as possible.

Upon receiving the news, Ying Zheng immediately ordered the drums to be beaten to urge Zhang Han to speed up the attack.

When Zhang Han heard the drumbeats, he realized that the battle situation had changed, and immediately ordered all the 10,000 reserve troops who were originally roaming outside the camp to be sent to the battlefield.

As a result, there were no more Qin troops stationed in front of Julu City, and both inside and outside the city were empty.

At this time, in the rear camp of the Chu-Zhou coalition, Chu Ning received a report from Jia Yu: "Your Highness, the Qin army has deployed all its forces, and General Guan Yun can no longer hold on!"

The Empress Wu Zhao of the Great Zhou was shocked when she heard this. She was about to order troops to be dispatched from the east for support, but was interrupted by Chu Ning.

His eyes were like torches, and his tone was firm: "Send nine signal arrows! It's time to use the real killer move!"

Following Chu Ning's order, nine signal arrows once again cut through the night sky, and the flames shone on everyone's face, as if foreshadowing a reversal of the battle situation.

The corners of Chu Ning's mouth rose slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

He knew that the outcome of this war would soon be revealed.

And this time, the surprise he is going to give Ying Zheng will definitely scare the other party out of his wits.

This is a big show he has been planning for a long time!
