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

Mao Shi.

It was dawning and the outline of the city was vaguely visible.

Suddenly, the south gate of Dingxiang City opened, and a cavalry of 5,000 men rushed out.

The leader, Chang Zhengyang, was so excited that he wished he could grow wings and fly to Chu Ning’s camp.

I will certainly not do such a stupid thing as confronting the Zhao cavalry head-on.

But if you are chasing the other party and trying to grab the credit, you must try your best.

Although he didn't know why Chu Ning was able to defeat the Zhao cavalry, as long as he caught up with them and reaped the rewards, even if he killed just one enemy soldier, the credit for the battle could be counted on him.

The Great Zhao cavalry has always been arrogant and domineering, claiming to be able to defeat all the cavalry in the world, but now they have been defeated by Chu Ning. If I can catch up with them and kill some of them, I will become famous!

It is a foregone conclusion that you will be promoted in the future with this!

Chang Zhengyang became more and more excited as he thought about it, and urged loudly: "Speed up, catch up quickly!"

The cavalrymen also wanted to make achievements and knew that they were going to harvest heads this time. They all had a look of ecstasy on their faces and frantically urged their horses to gallop.

At this moment, the sky was gradually getting brighter. The red clouds in the sky carried the early sun, shining warmly on everyone.

Even though the yellow sand was blowing at this moment, it could not stop their steps. In their eyes, as long as they could catch up with the Da Zhao cavalry, they would win.

It is known that shortly after they left the city, a team of a hundred people came out of Chu Ning's camp, and their appearance just blocked the road.

"General, there are people blocking the road ahead!"

"Humph, whoever dares to stand in my way will be killed!"

"Yes... it's His Royal Highness the Prince of Penglai!"

"Hmm?" Chang Zhengyang frowned, waved his hand to signal the cavalry to stop, and rode forward to negotiate.

"Your Highness, my father saw that the camp was attacked and sent me to support us. I wonder why Your Highness blocked our way?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Chang Zhengyang stood on the moral high ground.

Chu Ning raised his lips slightly, revealing a hint of amusement: "Really? Then why didn't you send people out at the beginning of the battle, but waited until I defeated the enemy before coming?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the cavalrymen behind Chang Zhengyang lowered their heads one after another.

No one is a fool. They went out of the city to reap the fruits of victory. As soldiers, they felt ashamed.

But they are soldiers after all and can only obey orders.

But now that they were exposed in public by Chu Ning, they were naturally extremely ashamed.

But Chang Zhengyang's face was gloomy, with a hint of coldness on his face: "Your Highness, what you said is not right. Is it possible that the enemy is not on the battlefield now? How can I be said to be stealing the merits of the war when I lead the army to support you now?"

"Seize the war merit?"

Chu Ning raised the corner of his mouth slightly and chuckled: "I didn't say that, you said it yourself."

"you……"

"enough!"

Chu Ning snorted coldly and interrupted, "I don't have time to waste time talking to you. Take your people and retreat immediately!"

Chang Zhengyang narrowed his eyes, revealing a hint of murderous intent.

It would be a shame to give up such a great opportunity.

Anyway, there aren't many people around Chu Ning, so it's better to just rush over.

"Your Highness, do you want to give way or not?" Chang Zhengyang was too lazy to say more to Chu Ning. He just wanted to chase and kill the enemy cavalry.

Chu Ning frowned: "Why, do you still dare to do it even if I won't let you?"

With a wave of his right hand, the Modao team behind him waved their long swords, and suddenly, a murderous atmosphere filled the air.

Chang Zhengyang sneered: "Why, Your Highness, do you think that a mere hundred men can stop my cavalry?"

"You dare to attack this king?"

Chu Ning's face showed anger: "You are committing treason, do you want to die?"

Chang Zhengyang didn't say much, but slowly drew the sword from his waist.

When the two sides were on the verge of a fight, Liu Shouren rushed out of the camp, shouting as he ran:

"Your Highness, General Chang, you must not do anything."

Chang Zhengyang glanced at Liu Shouren coldly and said, "Humph, Lord Liu has gained a lot of weight in the past few days in the camp. What, do you also want to persuade me to retreat back to the city?"

Liu Shouren smiled bitterly and said, "General Chang, no, I am here to persuade His Highness to let you go."

"Oh?" Chang Zhengyang put away his sword and chuckled, "Then I'd like to see how you can persuade me."

Liu Shouren turned to look at Chu Ning and said with a wry smile, "Your Highness, the enemy has already run very far away. We don't have many cavalrymen, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to catch up with them. Why don't we let General Chang lead the cavalry to chase them?

Our army has finally won a great victory, and we should work hard to expand the results."

Chu Ning, who was originally angry, raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He pondered for a moment and nodded slightly: "It does make some sense."

Liu Shouren continued, "Why not let General Chang lead his troops to pursue from the left? The enemy troops are the largest on that side, and General Chang with so many cavalry can just catch them all in one fell swoop.

The greater the victory, the more you will get. When you report it, His Majesty will definitely reward you."

Chu Ning nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Master Liu still has a long-term vision!"

After he finished speaking, Chu Ning waved his right hand and said, "Pass on my order to let the left side go."

At the command, the Modao team made way.

Chang Zhengyang frowned, feeling very puzzled.

Logically speaking, Chu Ning should have tried his best to stop him at this moment. Why did Liu Shouren change his mind with just a few words?

Was it that Chu Ning didn't dare to conflict with him, or was it that Liu Shouren's words worked?

However, since Chu Ning took the initiative to retreat, there was no need for him to delay. Chasing and killing the Zhao cavalry was the top priority!

With a sneer in his heart, Chang Zhengyang bowed to Chu Ning and said with a fake smile: "In that case, thank you very much, Your Highness!"

"Come on, follow me and chase the enemy cavalry!"

At the command, five thousand cavalrymen rushed forward like sharp arrows.

Chu Ning looked at the group of people leaving with a smile on his face, a hint of amusement appearing on his face.

If you are so impatient to die, then you can't blame me.

Anyway, I have already stopped you, it was you who wanted to go.

At this time, Liu Shouren, who was standing by, asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Your Highness, can you now tell me why you want to perform this drama?"

What Liu Shouren said just now was what Chu Ning asked him to say.

Although he didn't understand why, Liu Shouren didn't dare to ask more questions and could only do as he was told.

Now that the matter is done, Liu Shouren wants to know the answer.

Chu Ning laughed, looked at Liu Shouren deeply, and said slowly: "It's very simple, there are no deserters in the direction I gave up, only the troops from Da Zhao coming to support!

When General Chang goes there, he happens to meet the enemy. He can delay their reinforcements and create an opportunity for my subordinates to annihilate the enemy completely!

Of course, if General Chang is powerful, he can also kill the enemy's reinforcements."

Liu Shouren was stunned.

It turned out that all this was Chu Ning's plan.

It was said that Chang Zhengyang was sent to stop the reinforcements from Da Zhao, but in fact, Chang Zhengyang was asked to face the most elite troops of Da Zhao.

Moreover, the news of Tuoba Hao's murder must have reached the Great Zhao army. At this moment, the Great Zhao soldiers must be extremely angry.

Although Chang Zhengyang led the cavalry, if he encountered the angry troops of the Great Zhao, there would definitely be a fierce fight!

Chang Zhengyang, I’m afraid he won’t survive today!
