From Mozhou City, the new Huben army that took the initiative to go out to fight had more than 50,000 troops, including 30,000 infantry, 20,000 elite cavalry, and 3,000 heavy armored cavalry.

As a rising star among the generals of the Great New Dynasty, Wu Sanjia, who was the leader of the Huben New Army, would naturally not be so stupid as to order the 250,000 soldiers and horses in Mozhou City to go out in full force to fight the Dragon City army.

These more than 50,000 troops and horses were used by Wu Sanjia to charge into the formation and deplete the morale of Longcheng's army.

Wu Sanjia took the initiative to go out of the city to fight, but this caught Jin King Chen Huaian, who was commanding the siege of the Chinese army, and deputy commander Chang Yuchun, who surrendered his identity as the vanguard of the Dragon City army's siege, somewhat unexpectedly.

Logically speaking, as generals who have experienced hundreds of battles, whether it is Chen Huaian or Chang Yuchun, facing the enemy troops defending the city, they take the initiative to lower the drawbridge, open the city gate and go out to fight; this is a God-given opportunity;

Everyone should give orders decisively, and the vanguard of the front army attack immediately, taking advantage of the enemy troops fighting out of the city to gain a foothold and gather into formation, so as to catch the enemy troops by surprise.

The actual situation was that when Wu Sanjia took the initiative to lead his troops out of the city to line up to fight, neither Chen Huaian nor Chang Yuchun rashly issued military orders to attack.

On the one hand, it is because the new Huben army fighting out of the city is assembled within the range of the ballistas of the defenders on the city wall of Mozhou City, but outside the range of the ballistas and catapults of the Longcheng army's siege troops;

If the Dragon City army on the attacking side attacks rashly, they will be severely attacked by the ballistae and catapults of the defenders on the city wall.

On the other hand, it was because of the new Tiger and Ben troops fighting out of the city, the Tiefutu heavy armored cavalry and light cavalry were at the forefront, and they had extremely strong mobility and flexibility;

On the contrary, those in the forefront of the Dragon City army were crossbowmen and auxiliary soldiers carrying equipment for climbing the city. If they rashly attack the enemy cavalry, it would be tantamount to taking the initiative to die.

Therefore, when Chen Huaian and Chang Yuchun discovered Wu Sanjia and Huben's new army infantry and cavalry who took the initiative to leave the city, they could only watch helplessly as the enemy troops gathered under their noses and were helpless.

On the watchtower of the Central Army of Dragon City, Chen Huaian's heart suddenly tightened when he saw that the new Huben army guarding the city actually dispatched Tiefu Tu.

Then he ordered: "Send the order and let Fan Wuji and Pang Xianchu lead the Iron Buddha and Xuanjia Army to come forward to help. We must not let the enemy's Iron Buddha attack!"

"The general will get the order!"

Soon, the messengers took the military orders from Jin Wang Chen Huaian and hurried to the front line of the siege.

At the same time, the light and heavy cavalry of Huben's new army outside Mozhou City had also assembled into a battle formation.

Wu Sanjia, the new leader of the Huben Army, who was wearing bright armor and holding a silver gentian spear, had a scornful look on his rough cheeks, and looked firmly at the dark dragon city army in front of him.

He slowly raised the bright silver gentian spear in his hand, pointed the tip of the spear domineeringly, and said sternly: "Soldiers of Huben's new army, the time has come for you to be rewarded for your meritorious service——"

"Generals, follow this general to kill the Longcheng rebels!"

"Behead one rebel and reward fifty taels of silver!"

"Kill!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Sanjia knocked the horse's belly violently. The big white horse felt pain under his crotch, and immediately roared and rushed out with four hooves.

"Kill the rebels and receive the reward!"

"Come on!"

Following closely behind were the Tiefutu heavy cavalry with three thousand men and horses, all wearing heavy armor.

On both wings were 20,000 light cavalry of the new army.

Kick, kick, kick!

Kick, kick, kick!

In an instant, thousands of horses were galloping, iron hooves trampled the earth, and the deafening sound of horse hooves resounded inside and outside Mozhou City. The river water in the moat was washed away with layers of ripples.

"Crossbowmen, form up to meet the enemy!"

"Trebuchet, release—"

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Almost at the same time, when Wu Sanjia led his cavalry to charge into the battle, the various units of the Longcheng army that had gathered to attack the city outside Mozhou City began to fight back to meet the enemy without the need for orders from the vanguard general.

The first to react were the crossbowmen and slingers.

Arrows and tumbling boulders filled the sky, drawing tragic life-threatening arcs in the mid-air outside Mozhou City.

The next moment, arrows and boulders smashed into the moving Huben New Army cavalry formation.

boom--

puff--

Qiang——

For a moment, there was the rumble of boulders hitting the men and horses, the pop of arrows piercing through the light armor and flesh, and the sound of metal collisions as the arrows hit the iron pagoda's heavy armor.

Like a moving torrent, the new cavalry formation of the Huben Army was immediately knocked down and a large area was killed.

The ownerless war horse still relied on the animal's survival instinct and continued to charge forward with the large army.

"Dragon City Iron Pagoda——"

"Xuanjia Light Cavalry——"

"Attack!"

On the two wings of the Dragon City army's siege force, the Tiefutu and Xuanjia troops as supporting forces also received orders from their respective generals Pang Xianchu and Fan Wuji at the same time that the enemy cavalry was dispatched;

Even before Chen Huaian's military order for the two men to attack had reached the ears of Pang Xianchu and Fan Wuji, they made the correct decision to lead their troops to attack based on the rapidly changing battlefield situation.

Kick, kick, kick!

Kick, kick, kick!

The sound of horse hooves, like thunder on the ground, once again resounded over Mozhou City.

Intertwined with the sound of iron hooves of the galloping new army cavalry, a majestic and tragic movement was played.

A thousand steps.

Five hundred steps.

Two hundred steps!

In a dozen breaths, the distance between the Huben New Army cavalry led by Wu Sanjia and the crossbowmen of the Longcheng army's siege force was shortened to less than 200 steps, and the distance between the crossbowmen and their manpower was reduced to less than 200 steps. range.

"Crossbowmen, fire arrows——"

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

As the crossbowmen commanded Qian Hu's immediate command and dispatch, the crossbowmen of the Longcheng army fired another volley at close range, shooting countless arrows into the enemy's cavalry formation.

"Crossbowmen, retreat——"

"Shield soldiers, move forward!"

"Pikemen and swordsmen formed a formation to meet the enemy——"

The orders of the generals who commanded and dispatched on the spot sounded out in an orderly manner among all the formations of the Dragon City army.

Facing the pressure of the enemy's light and heavy cavalry at close range, the soldiers of the Dragon City army fighting against the city showed no fear and had no intention of retreating.

These soldiers are all private soldiers summoned by Chen Huaian from the [Born Emperor's Fate] system. They are much stronger than ordinary soldiers in terms of combat effectiveness and fighting will.

Even when faced with enemy cavalry rushing into battle, he could still draw his sword calmly even though he knew he was outmatched.

This scene moved and shocked all the generals of the former Imperial Tiger Army, led by Liu Ziyu, the deputy general of Longcheng's southern army.

They all muttered in their hearts that if the same situation had happened to the soldiers under their command, their morale would have collapsed and the entire army would have fled.

Looking at Jin Wang Chen Huaian again, he also became sincerely admiring.

However, Chen Huaian, who was on the Chinese army's watchtower at this time, had no thoughts and no time to care about the looks of these generals under his command as they looked at him.

His eyes never moved away from the frontline battlefield for a moment.

When Chen Huaian witnessed with his own eyes, the enemy general Wu Sanjia, riding a white horse and holding a silver gentian spear, single-handedly charged into the Dragon City army formation;

He knew very clearly that the battle in Mozhou was inevitable!
