The empress disliked my achievements for overshadowing her own, so she turned her attention to the N

After the adjutant left, Scarface muttered to himself, "Really, what makes them think they can turn the world upside down? It's just a mere Northern Wei."

Then he shouted again, "Brothers, let's huddle together and not give those light cavalry any chance!"

He knew that his advantage lay in his heavy armored soldiers, which was why he gathered all his heavy armored soldiers together to prevent the enemy from breaking through his lines.

But he never expected that his scheme would lead to the annihilation of more than 10,000 armored soldiers.

A quarter of an hour later, the closed gates of Wei capital city swung open, and Zhao Yun, beaming with joy, led his three thousand White Horse Cavalry into the city.

As soon as he entered the city, he rushed to the city wall and came to Chen Nan: "Your Highness, I have fulfilled my mission and smashed all those crystal bottles around the heavily armored soldiers."

"And then there was that last enemy general who actually had his heavily armored soldiers huddle together. I just ordered my men to throw them at them."

"What? You mean they all ended up gathering together?" Chen Nan exclaimed in surprise.

He immediately went to the top of the city wall and looked down, and saw that the heavily armored soldiers were indeed gathered together.

He immediately threw his head back and burst into laughter: "Hahaha, how foolish!"

"Your Highness, what should we do next?"

Now, everyone gathered around Chen Nan.

Zhao Yun just went out. Although there was no battle, he did go out for a stroll.

As generals themselves, they naturally did not want to be besieged within the city.

Chen Nan naturally knew what they were thinking, but now was not a good time to go out of the city for a face-to-face battle.

All I could say was to comfort you, "Don't worry, we'll give you a chance once everything is arranged."

As he spoke, Chen Nan carefully observed the enemy troops below the city wall.

He frowned and said, "It's so far away, I'm afraid we can't even shoot from the city wall!"

That's right. Although the arrows couldn't cause any damage to the heavily armored soldiers, the scarred man still managed to position his camp outside the range of the arrows.

Chen Nan asked helplessly, "Zilong, are you still willing to go out of the city to fight?"

Zhao Yun was taken aback. He had been the first to go out earlier, and he thought it would be the others' turn this time.

Unexpectedly, his lord still summoned him. Suppressing his joy, he said, "My lord, this humble general is willing!"

Seeing this, Chen Sheng said aggrievedly, "Master, do you not like your disciple anymore?"

“My disciple, those five thousand heavy cavalry are practically covered in thorns. You’re just biased towards General Zhao Yun, which is why you keep sending him into battle.”

Chen Nan chuckled irritably, "Mr. Chen, this time we'll need the speed of light cavalry."

"Your heavy cavalry's advantage lies in charging into battle; don't tell me you don't even know that."

Chen Sheng smiled awkwardly. As a general of heavy cavalry, how could he not know the advantages of heavy cavalry?

What I said just now was simply because I also wanted to go out for a walk.

Looking at Chen Sheng's resentful expression, Chen Nan said helplessly, "Alright, this time you and Zhao Yun will each lead 1,500 light cavalry."

"However, remember this time when you go out, always keep a certain distance from those heavily armored soldiers."

"Just keep shooting arrows from beyond the range they can reach."

Chen Sheng looked puzzled: "Master, how could ordinary arrows possibly harm those heavily armored soldiers?"

Chen Nan glared at him: "Can't you let me finish what I have to say?"

Chen Sheng smiled again and took a step back unintentionally.

Chen Nan then continued, "I have already coated those arrows with oil."

"Before shooting, you must light the head of the arrow with a tinderbox, and then shoot it."

"Will this really work?" Chen Sheng couldn't help but ask again.

Chen Nan was furious: "Chen Sheng, if you interrupt again, you're not going this time."

Seeing that Chen Nan had unleashed his ultimate move, Chen Sheng dared not interrupt anymore.

Quietly await the next installment.

Chen Nan, having been interrupted repeatedly, had long forgotten what he wanted to say.

He could only instruct, "That's about it. After you leave, make sure you don't get too close to the heavily armored soldiers."

Chen Nan knew that a fire ignited by so much alcohol at the same time would be very large.

Moreover, the heavily armored soldiers had no chance to take off their armor.

He ordered the light cavalry to keep their distance because he was afraid that some of them might be unlucky enough to get too close to the enemy and be grabbed, and then have to trade their lives for it, which would be a huge loss.

Chen Nan glanced at the group of heavily armored soldiers cowering together below, a cold smile appearing on his lips.

"Zilong, Chen Sheng, you two should go now."

The two men clasped their fists together and each led their soldiers out of the city.

As soon as the group left the city, Scarface realized what was happening, and his lieutenant, looking extremely nervous, said, "General, that group of light cavalry is here again. Should we hold back?"

Seeing this, Scarface snorted coldly: "They didn't even bring any weapons, just some arrows."

He then mocked, "We're all heavily armored soldiers, do you think we'd be afraid of his mere arrows?"

"Tell the soldiers that there's no need for any precautions. We can just sit here and watch the monkey show."

"Playing with monkeys... General, shouldn't we prepare in advance? In case the enemy really uses fire, we'll be prepared!"

The lieutenant once again earnestly offered his advice.

Even if the fire attack couldn't cause them any casualties, they should at least be a little vigilant in the face of the enemy's offensive, right?

After he finished speaking, seeing Scarface's indifferent expression, he couldn't help but shake his head: "Sigh, then let's do as the general says."

He then shrugged and turned to make the arrangements.

He was just a deputy general, what could he do?

Under the general's orders, he had no choice but to follow them.

On the other side, after Zhao Yun and Chen Sheng led their men out, they immediately led their soldiers to form a large circle, surrounding all the heavily armored soldiers inside.

Just then, the lieutenant, still unwilling to give up, ran up to Scarface again: "General, the light cavalry has surrounded us."

"It looks like they're about to launch an attack on us. General, please make plans as soon as possible!"

Scarface looked around and curled his lip: "It's alright. Even if it were heavy cavalry, I wouldn't be afraid, let alone a group of light cavalry."

"Besides, even if they attack, they'll just be shooting arrows from a distance. Do you think our heavily armored soldiers are afraid of their arrows?"

As he spoke, he actually stood up and loudly provoked, "Listen up, generals of Northern Wei! I, Scarface, am standing right here. If you have the guts, come forward and attack!"

"If you're not capable, you should go home now and stop making a fool of yourself here."

Hearing his mocking voice, the hot-tempered Chen Sheng immediately shouted, "Go to hell, you just wait!"

Having said that, he waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him simultaneously drew their bows and pulled their arrows.

After making all the preparations, he looked at Chen Sheng, waiting for his command so that the arrow could be launched immediately.
