Chapter 503 Ning Chen enters Prince Yong's Mansion!
"Hand-barreled cavalry!"
"Armored soldiers, line up!"
"Quick, archers, aim at the enemy's heavy cavalry and shoot!"
Seeing the black-armored cavalry in front of him charging towards the central army, the King of Qi was a little panicked. He had never seen heavy-armored cavalry in Guanshan, so he naturally didn't know its power.
Now, just from the momentum of the galloping horses, it can be seen that it is not comparable to ordinary cavalry.
"Don't panic, gentlemen!"
"With me here, what's the use of thousands of troops? One round of horse shooting by the soldiers of my Divine Archery Camp will reduce the number of soldiers in this iron cavalry by half!"
"Listen to my orders, generals, shoot arrows!"
A young man in a Confucian robe had a confident smile on his face, with a longbow hanging on his waist, and said loudly: "Set up a shield wall and set up spears!"
"Yes!"
After the military order was issued, the halberds were placed in front of the formation, and a row of burly men holding square shields formed a shield wall in front of the formation. The ten-foot-long spears shone through the gaps in the shields, releasing a cold cold light!
"Shoot!"
With a low shout, countless bowstring cracking sounds merged together, making only one sound, and then thousands of arrows were fired at the charging black armor cavalry.
"Defend!"
Qin Qiong put down the double maces in his hand, raised his hand and raised the golden spear, looked at the formation in front of him, his face was calm, and as he spit out a word, the knights behind him set up their spears.
"Attack!"
The second military order was issued, and the 10,000 black armored soldiers all accelerated their speed. The horses under their crotches moved their limbs vigorously, and smoke and dust rolled wherever they passed.
The sky was full of arrows falling like a meteor shower, shooting at the black armored soldiers' bodies, forearms, and gaps in armor, but the black armored soldiers' charge was unabated.
The arrows were bounced off by the heavy armor plates, or stuck in the gaps in the armor. Only a few knights with bad luck were shot in the eyes or horse legs and fell to the ground.
"Kill!"
Qin Qiong spit out the third word, his eyes looking into the distance. Lu Bu and others had already broken into the 10,000-man army formation, and they were in a no-man's land.
Yang Zaixing and Ran Min were like reincarnations of evil spirits. In just two quarters of an hour, their armor had already been stained with blood!
"Black Armor Army, charge!"
"Kill through the enemy formation!"
"No matter what happens, you must not stop charging, either die in battle or win a great victory!"
"Yes!"
Ten thousand black armors, arranged in formation, rushed towards the central army of the princes' coalition army like a rotten wood, passed through the chariot and spear formation, the war horses directly knocked over the shield wall prepared in front of them, and the long spears even picked up one figure after another.
This is the horror of heavy cavalry. As long as the momentum of the charge has been set, even if there is a sea of fire in front of them, they must pass through it unimpeded, even if there is a mountain of knives, they must rush through it fearlessly.
"Shoot!"
"Shoot!"
The young Confucian general conveyed the orders one by one, and the sound of the bowstrings behind him never stopped, but the rain of arrows poured down, and the offensive of the black armor army was not blocked at all.
Gradually, the surrounding princes and soldiers also noticed a little abnormality, looking at the figures like evil gods, they couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
Arrows can't penetrate their armor, swords and axes can't hurt their bodies, how should this battle be fought?
"Your Highness!"
"Withdraw the troops!"
A counselor beside the King of Qi looked at the ghostly figures in the distance with deep eyes, and was silent for a long time before he whispered.
"Withdraw the troops?"
"My allied forces have 300,000 troops!"
"If we withdraw the troops at this time, won't we let these Central Plains bastards chase us?"
The King of Qi stared at the counselor beside him and said gloomily: "Although their cavalry is strong, it is only more than 30,000 cavalry. Even if I fight them, I can wear them out."
"Your Highness!"
"The troops of Dali are more than 30,000!"
"Now, the soldiers have lost their morale. If they continue to fight, they may be overturned!"
The King of Qi also exhaled deeply, his eyes flickered for a long time, and then he said with a little unwillingness: "Let the backer army cover the rear, and tell the rest of the princes to withdraw the troops!"
"Yes!"
...
Huainan
Prince Yong's Mansion.
Ning Chen appeared outside the mansion, looking at the endless stream of people, he couldn't help but reveal some doubts.
This mansion is a solemn and dignified place. It is rare to see a few figures on weekdays, but the threshold of Prince Yong's Mansion is almost trampled flat, and the people coming and going are dressed in different clothes.
"Your Highness?"
"Go up and ask around to see what these people are doing in Prince Yong's Mansion."
"Yes!"
After Ji Jiu bowed respectfully, he strode forward, stopped a man dressed in merchant clothes and asked a few questions, and then walked towards an old man dressed like a craftsman.
"Your Highness!"
"Have you asked clearly?"
"These people are all here to do business at the Prince Yong's Mansion."
"Business?"
Ning Chen's brows furrowed, and he asked in confusion: "What are these merchants and craftsmen here to do at the Prince Yong's Mansion?"
"Your Highness, His Highness Prince Yong governs Huainan, with two courts and three departments. The Prince Yong's Mansion has two bureaus, the Engineering Bureau and the Commerce Bureau, and the offices of these two bureaus are located in the Prince Yong's Mansion."
"Two courts, three departments and two bureaus?"
Ning Chen's face showed some surprise, he looked up at the three big characters of the Prince Yong's Mansion, and whispered: "Who is in charge of the Prince Yong's Mansion now?"
"Your Highness, all government affairs in Huainan are now presided over by Chen Gong, the Lingzhou City Administrator, Jia Xu and Di Renjie, the President of the Supervisory Council."
"Yes!"
"Please ask the three of them to come and see me."
"Yes!"
Ji Jiu strode directly to the Yongwang Mansion, took out Ning Chen's identity card, and was immediately invited into the mansion respectfully.
Not long after, three figures hurried to the main hall of Yongwang Mansion. Seeing Ning Chen sitting upright and carefully reading several memorials in his hands, their expressions were also a little surprised.
"Your subordinate, I pay my respects to His Royal Highness Shengwang!"
"No need to be polite!"
Ning Chen put down the memorial in his hand, waved his hand, and showed a gentle smile on his face. He said softly: "Three, I came uninvited and I am sorry to bother you!"
"Your Highness, what are you talking about."
"But my master is not in Huainan now..."
"Well!"
Ning Chen smiled and waved to Ji Jiu, gave the three people a seat, and then looked at Chen Gong with interest: "I came to Huainan today on the order of my father to inspect Jiangnan and come to see my younger brother."
"I didn't expect this The kid is so bold that he actually wants to take Guanshan. "
"I heard that the three of you are now in charge of all matters in Huainan. Can you introduce the current government structure in Huainan to me?"
"Especially the two courts and three departments, how are they divided in terms of system, policies, and powers..."
Chen Gong and Jia Xu looked at each other, both frowning slightly, but Jia Xu on the side smiled and said: "These two courts and three departments were established by the lord in accordance with the will of His Majesty, after the establishment of the government, and the officials were appointed and dismissed in accordance with the will of His Majesty!"
"They are..."
