The strongest emperor system in history

Chapter 49 The Eve of the Great War!

"Yes, General, Senior Shangguan is right. Lu Zihong only has two thousand cavalry. If he dares to come, we will surely smash them to pieces!" A deputy general also said.

"That's right, what Senior Shangguan said is absolutely true, general, don't worry about it."

The rest of the generals also spoke one after another, flattering the old man in their words.

A few rays of anger flashed in Gou Yunguang's eyes when he heard the flattery in the words of his generals, but the anger soon turned into helplessness.

Because he can also understand the actions of these generals.

After all, this old man is Shangguan Chan, the grand elder of the Shangguan family, the second most aristocratic family in the Southern Territory. He has a strong background and is also a strong man at the mid-stage peak of the Xiantian Profound Image Realm.

These generals naturally did not dare to offend.

Even he, the general of the army, did not dare to offend.

With a helpless sigh in his heart, Gou Yunguang said: "Of course I believe the information of the family in the southern region, but I have also heard that there has been no news from Ningqiu City for two days, so that we only now know about Lu Zihong's identity." The army is already twenty miles away."

"General Gou is too worried." Shangguan Chan shook his head and said, "Lu Zihong dared to plot against the aristocratic family in the southern region to take the initiative to take down Ningqiu City, which means that this person is by no means a waste. Eyes and ears continue to deliver the message."

"There is no news right now. He must have blocked Ningqiu City! But these are trivial matters. After all, how can he block Ningqiu City? He only has 2000 cavalry in hand. How can he stop our [-] army?"

Gou Yunguang also nodded when he heard the words.

Indeed, it is impossible for only two thousand cavalry to defeat an army of sixty thousand!

However, after a little thought, he still ordered: "Send the order, and the army will immediately station in place, in a defensive formation, and be alert to the enemy's attack!"

"This……"

Shangguan Chan frowned and said, "General Gou, facing two thousand cavalry, are you going to choose to defend?"

"It's just a temporary defense."

Gou Yunguang explained: "Although Lu Zihong only has two thousand cavalry, he is still a cavalry army after all. If we take the initiative to attack, the front line may be stretched and the mobility of the cavalry may be restrained by the mobility of the cavalry, resulting in heavy losses for the army."

"Now let's defend first and see how sharp Lu Zihong's cavalry is. If the strength is weak, we will take the initiative to attack; if the strength is too strong, we will use the defensive formation to consume the enemy's energy, and wait until the enemy is exhausted before attacking!"

Shangguan Chan suddenly realized and stopped talking.

Those military generals didn't say much when they saw Shangguan Chan, so naturally they couldn't say much, and quickly took orders.

Soon [-] county soldiers were stationed in place and began to arrange defensive formations.

……

"It seems that Gou Yunguang is of a certain level."

At Shen Shi, Lu Zihong led four thousand tigers and leopards to a position less than five miles away from the enemy army. With his cultivation level, he could clearly see the formation of Gou Yun's army.

The overall defensive formation is clearly prepared for defense.

This seems to have lost his prestige, but it is definitely the best choice to face the cavalry.

The infantry faced the formed iron cavalry on the plain. If you stay in place and choose defense, you may still be able to fight. If you choose to take the initiative to attack, you will undoubtedly die!

Gou Yunguang obviously knew this, so he set up his defense and waited for himself to attack, using crossbows and other defensive equipment to deal with the cavalry.

"Your Majesty, let me go to the battle!"

Dian Wei asked to fight: "In half an hour, I promise to lead the troops to break through the gate of the enemy's barracks!"

Lu Zihong shook his head when he heard the words.

With Dian Wei's strength in the early days of Xiantian Cave Realm, leading the iron cavalry to charge the formation can naturally break through the enemy's barracks, but the enemy's bows and crossbows and other defensive equipment will definitely cause great damage to the tiger and leopard knights.

He didn't have many iron cavalry, so he naturally wanted to save some.

He ordered: "Dian Wei, you lead five hundred cavalry to follow me around the enemy's formation, and I want to see if the defensive formation that Gou Yunguang built in just two or three hours is real. Nothing is lost."

Seeing that Lu Zihong refused to let him lead the troops into the battle, Dian Wei was a little disappointed, but he immediately took the order.

Soon, Lu Zihong took Dian Wei and led five hundred cavalry to circle around the enemy's camp, looking for weak points in the enemy's defense.

"Made!"

"That means we don't have cavalry in our hands. Otherwise, how could Lu Zihong, the emperor's son, be so rampant that he dared to check around our barracks in broad daylight!"

"Exactly! As long as there are one thousand cavalry, no, eight hundred cavalry, I will be sure to destroy the hundreds of cavalry brought by Lu Zihong!"

In the main camp of the military camp, all the generals were furious.

Gou Yunguang also looked gloomy.

They were guarding the barracks, but Lu Zihong went around their barracks openly to search for weak points of defense. This was a great shame to them!

It's just that since they don't have cavalry in their hands, no matter how angry they are, it won't help!

Taking a deep breath, Gou Yunguang suppressed the anger in his heart, and said, "Let's ignore Lu Zihong, how is your department's defense doing?"

"This……"

The faces of all the generals changed, and they said with embarrassment: "Except for the frontal defensive positions, less than [-]% of the other places have been completed."

"Less than [-]%?" Gou Yunguang's complexion changed drastically, and he was about to get angry.

But a general immediately said: "General, it's not that we are incompetent, but that the time is too short, and we have no time to complete the defense of the entire barracks."

Gou Yunguang's face became more gloomy, but he suppressed his anger, because he also knew that it would be too difficult to complete the defense of the entire barracks in just two or three hours.

Sighing helplessly, he had no choice but to order: "Pass down the order, the whole army must be vigilant today, and be careful of enemy attacks. At the same time, 2 people in the Chinese army will form a reinforcement army. If there is a war, they must rush to rescue immediately!"

"Yes!"

The generals took the lead.

Only then did Gou Yunguang nod his head, thinking in his heart that he hoped that Lu Zihong would not have the courage to take the initiative to attack the barracks of [-] troops with [-] cavalry.

Shangguan Chan looked at this scene but didn't take it seriously.

He hoped that Lu Zihong would take the initiative to attack, because as long as Lu Zihong entered the barracks, his own army would be able to contain Lu Zihong's cavalry, and he could take the opportunity to kill Lu Zihong.

Without those iron cavalry to stop him, killing a little Lu Zihong with his own strength is as easy as pie!

As long as Lu Zihong dies, the enemy's cavalry will naturally be defeated!

However, as the Supreme Elder of the Shangguan family, he did not directly intervene in the defense of the army. He knew himself, and he knew nothing about military matters.

So I don't do the shit of laymen guiding experts.

You only need to be able to shoot and kill at critical moments!

Gou Yunguang had been secretly observing Shangguan Chan, and he was relieved to see that he hadn't spoken. He was really afraid that the elder from Shangguan's family would propose something difficult for him.

Fortunately, this Shangguan Chan was not stupid, and he did not interfere with his deployment of the army.
