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

The Tang army's offensive was like waves crashing against the shore, determined to completely destroy the walls of Leling.

Half an hour passed, corpses piled up like mountains under the city, and the ground was soaked with blood, but Li Shiming still did not give the order to retreat.

Although the Tang army soldiers were afraid, no one dared to retreat and could only continue to charge forward.

On the city wall, the Chu army archers had run out of arrows and rolling logs and stones. The defenders were exhausted and their defense line was shaky.

Chu Ning stood on the top of the city wall, his eyes were cold, but a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"The time has come."

Just as the Tang army was attacking the city with all its might, the earth suddenly shook.

"Rumble--"

The dull sound of horse hooves came from far away, like rolling thunder.

The soldiers on the right wing of the Tang army were the first to notice something was wrong and turned to look.

"Cavalry! The White Horse Cavalry!"

"How is that possible? Aren't they in the city?"

Li Shiming turned his head suddenly and his pupils suddenly contracted.

In the distance, smoke and dust billowed, and a cavalry with silver armor and white horses came galloping like white lightning. The general leading them was none other than the general of the Chu army - Zhao Yu!

"Projection!"

At Zhao Yu's command, the White Horse Cavalrymen all drew out their short spears from behind their backs and threw them out suddenly with the momentum of their horses' charge!

"Whoosh whoosh—"

The short spears broke through the air like a torrential rain, and the Tang army camp collapsed in an instant.

Before the shield bearers in the front row could react, they were pierced through the chest by the sharp spears, and screams rang out one after another.

"Shield bearer! Raise your shield quickly!" Li Ji shouted loudly.

But it's too late!

The white horse cavalry were extremely fast. As soon as the short spears landed on the ground, they had already rushed to the front of the formation.

Zhao Yu thrust his spear forward, a cold light flashing, piercing the weakest point of the Tang army's formation!

"kill--!"

The earth is shaking.

Three thousand white horse cavalry swept in like an avalanche, their hooves crushing the dust, their silver armor reflecting the bloody setting sun, their cold spears pointing directly at the Tang army's black armor formation.

"kill--!"

Zhao Yu took the lead, his spear like a dragon, piercing the enemy formation!

The Tang army's Black Armor Army was the elite in the world, with heavy armor as hard as iron, which was difficult to penetrate by swords and spears.

But they never expected that the long spears of this White Horse Cavalry were actually specially made armor-piercing cones, with the spear tips as thin as needles, specially designed to break through iron armor!

"Pfft!"

Before the first row of Black Armored Army could react, Zhao Yu's spear had already pierced through the throat of a centurion, and blood splattered, staining the silver armor red.

"charge!"

Three thousand white horse cavalrymen poured out like a torrent, instantly tearing through the Tang army's defense line!

"Dang! Puff!"

The sounds of metal colliding and flesh tearing were intertwined, spears pierced through armor, and war horses knocked shields away.

The black armor that the Tang army was proud of was as soft as paper in front of this cavalry!

"Impossible! How can their spears pierce the black armor?" A captain of the Tang army shouted in horror. Before he could finish his words, a silver spear pierced his chest and sent him flying!

Zhao Yu's eyes were cold, and he swept his spear across. Another Black Armor Army soldier's head flew up, and a column of blood shot up into the sky!

The White Horse Cavalry's charge was unstoppable, like a sharp knife piercing the heart of the Tang army. Their iron hooves trampled the ground, their spears pointed, and corpses were scattered everywhere!

"Hold on! Form a formation! Form a formation!" The Tang army general roared angrily, but the collapse was already inevitable and no one could stop it!

A member of the Black Armor Army was fearless and swung his sword at Zhao Yu, but he blocked it with his spear. He then stabbed with his backhand, and the tip of the spear pierced through his back!

"Anyone who stands in my way will die!"

The air was filled with blood mist and wailing was everywhere.

Wherever the White Horse Cavalry passed, the Tang army fell like wheat being cut, and broken limbs and arms covered the battlefield.

"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw!"

Finally, the Tang army collapsed.

The Black Armor Army dropped their shields and fled in all directions, but the White Horse Cavalry was even faster!

"Pursuit!"

Zhao Yu pointed his spear, and the cavalry charged again, like the Grim Reaper's scythe, reaping the fleeing enemy troops.

This charge completely shattered the Tang army's will to fight.

This charge also made people all over the world remember - white horse and silver spear, unparalleled in breaking formations!

Although the Tang army's Black Armor Army was known as the elite in the world, it was caught off guard and could not stop this cavalry that rushed out like ghosts.

What’s even more terrifying is that the White Horse Cavalry’s spears can easily pierce through the black armor, and every charge brings up a cloud of blood!

"Pfft! Pfft!"

The spear tips pierced the flesh, the war horses trampled the troops, and the Tang army's formation was instantly in chaos!

Li Shiming's face turned pale as he roared, "Stop them! Fire a signal arrow to mobilize troops from the north of the city to support us!"

He became furious and decided to concentrate his forces to defeat the White Horse Cavalry first!

His troops outnumber those of the Chu army, and he can capture Leling as long as he can defeat the White Horse Cavalry!

"Boo-boo-boo-"

Three rockets were launched into the air. This was an order for emergency troop deployment.

When the Tang army in the north of the city saw the signal, they immediately gave up the siege, changed direction and prepared to return to support.

But at this moment, a spy tumbled and crawled to Li Shiming, shouting in fear: "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! The Han army... the Han army has retreated!"

Li Shiming grabbed the spy by the collar, his eyes wide with anger: "What did you say? Why did the Han army retreat? When did they retreat?!"

The spy's voice trembled as he replied, "The Han army has been unable to capture the city for a long time. Liu Che, unwilling to waste any more manpower, withdrew half an hour ago! Now the Chu army is gathering inside the city, ready to deal with us with all their might!"

Li Shiming's mind suddenly pounded, and he finally understood - Chu Ning deliberately let the Han army enter the city, and then forced them back with fire attack, just to concentrate troops to deal with the Tang army!

"What a Chu Ning! How dare you plot against me!"

But before he could adjust his deployment, the gate of Leling city burst open!

"kill--!"

Chu Ning personally led the army to attack!

He was wearing silver armor, holding a spear, and riding a dragon-like warhorse as he charged straight into the Tang army camp!

"Chu Ning is here! Anyone who stands in my way will die!"

The spear swept across, blood splattered! Chu Ning was like a tiger among sheep, and wherever he passed, the Tang army fell one after another.

His target is clear - Li Shiming's dragon banner!

Li Ji was horrified when he saw this and shouted urgently, "Quick! Protect His Majesty and retreat!"

Li Shiming was furious, drew his sword and roared, "I will not retreat! I am not defeated yet!"

But the situation on the battlefield had completely reversed, the Tang army's formation collapsed, and the soldiers fled in all directions.

Without any explanation, the guards forcibly pulled Li Shiming's horse and protected him as he retreated to the rear.

Chu Ning laughed loudly: "Li Shiming, can you escape? The whole army is chasing you!"

The Chu army was in high spirits and pursued the enemy all the way.

Zhao Yu's white horse cavalry charged back and forth, and the defeated Tang army fell like waves of wheat.

"Pfft!"

"what--"

The screams were endless, and the Tang army threw away their weapons and fled in a panic.

Chu Ning personally led his troops in a pursuit for three miles, with corpses strewn all over the ground and blood flowing like a river.

What’s even more ironic is that the Tang army that came back to support from the north of the city just arrived at the battlefield and ran into the defeated main force head-on. As a result, the Chu army took advantage of the situation and rushed in, and was defeated again!

"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw!"

The Tang army completely collapsed and no longer had the will to fight.

Li Shiming barely escaped with the desperate protection of his personal guards, but when he looked back, he saw the Chu army's battle flags fluttering on the battlefield, and the corpses of the Tang army piled up like mountains.

In this battle, Chu Ning defeated the larger force with a smaller one, forced the Han army to retreat, and defeated the Tang army!

Under the city of Leling, the power of the King of Chu shocked the world!
