Hearing the sound of hooves approaching in the distance like muffled thunder, the hearts of the guards on Chifeng City couldn't help but tremble at the sound of hooves.
At this time, the city is already at the end of its strength. If Ulan gets reinforcements again, Chifeng may not be able to be saved.
"The Ming Dynasty's Royal Elite Cavalry is coming to support!"
In the distance, a neat and high-pitched shout suddenly came.
Ming Royal Elite Cavalry?!
Hearing these words, all the guards perked up.
Reinforcements, their reinforcements have arrived!
Chu Yuan, the general of the Northwest Army, swung his sword and cut down a Ulan soldier in front of him from the city wall, "Kill these bitches to raise barbarians and drive them off the city!"
"Kill!"
…
For a moment, the guards shouted killing sounds.
The arrival of reinforcements is like a shot in the arm that cheers up every gloomy gloomy guard.
Under the city, Nangong Xiao and others have also rushed down to the Ulan Kingdom's siege team.
A knife that has been blessed with metal magic will not only become stronger and sharper, but its lethality will also be doubled. Every time it is swung, it will bring out a circle of faint golden brilliance.
The wildebeest slammed into the enemy's horse, and the sharp spikes on its front pierced the opponent's unprotected and fragile horse body without mercy.
Ulan's army, which was overwhelming just now, was washed into scattered sand in just a moment. The siege army that had already rushed to the city was unable to receive support from behind, and its numbers were rapidly reduced amidst the resistance of the defenders.
Subatu, the chief general of the Southern Expedition, was watching the battle from a distance, his thick eyebrows already knitted together, "Commander, are you withdrawing your troops?!"
The demon king standing in front of him had already regained his composure on his face. To him, the life and death of these Wulan soldiers were not worth mentioning. What he really paid attention to now was these Ming royal elite cavalry.
As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger.
These Ulan soldiers are just his chess pieces, used to test the true strength of Ming Dynasty.
How could a real chess master care about these chess pieces that were originally cannon fodder?!
"Military advisor?!" Subbatu said anxiously, "We can't fight anymore!"
"Yes!" The Demon King shrugged lightly, "There is no point in continuing to fight, so withdraw your troops!"
He looked away from the battlefield, turned around and walked into the carriage.
The horn of retreat sounded, and the Ulan army retreated in disgrace.
"Don't chase the defeated enemy!" Nangong Xiao raised the blood-stained knife in his hand, "Go back to the city!"
The guards of Chifeng City had already opened the city gate, and 50,000 fine cavalry filed in, leaving only a large area of Ulan corpses in the open space in front of Chifeng City.
In this battle, Ulan lost 30,000 troops, the Northwest Army suffered nearly 40,000 casualties, and only over 100 of the 50,000 royal elite cavalry were injured.
"Long live the Ming Dynasty, long live the Emperor!"
Seeing those divine cavalry, which were like divine soldiers descending from the sky, entering the city, the city defenders and the people who came after hearing the news cheered loudly.
Sitting in the carriage, listening to the voices coming from the city, the Demon King just raised the corners of his lips calmly, "Send the order, retreat to Chifeng Fortress!"
============================
Every month at the end of the month, the nine-storied tower becomes extremely busy.
The families in each palace will send their tributes to the city lord of the Nine Palaces in exchange for next month's rations.
For example, the iron mines of the Cang clan, or the cloth in the Eighth Level Palace, the wine in the Fifth Level Palace...
The end of this month is no exception.
This month, the Cang clan has more iron ore than every other month. More than a hundred carts of heavy ore were hauled, and even the captain of the guard guarding the tower showed a surprised expression.
"Sect Master Han, you have a great harvest this month!"
