The originally lively and prosperous city of Nanjing now looks very depressed and deserted.
It’s not for anything else, just because Lin Nuo’s three thousand elite Jinyi cavalry entered the city!
Boom! Boom! Boom!...
The sounds of war horses trampling the ground continued to sound, causing the ground to shake slightly.
An overwhelming force of three thousand cavalry came in like a tidal wave.
The Jinyi cavalry were wearing brocade robes, holding bows and sabers, and were wearing black soft armor underneath. As soon as they entered the city, an iron-blooded evil aura spread. Even though they were far away, the people of Nanjing City,
You can clearly smell the bloody smell emanating from the military formation.
Obviously, this is definitely an iron-blooded army that has been on the battlefield for a long time and has killed countless people!
"Master, the person in charge of the black armor is the Commander of the Imperial Guards, Lin Nuo!"
There is an inconspicuous restaurant not far from the city gate. At this time, there are two men in the restaurant, secretly peeping at the army pouring into the city like sea water.
One is an old man dressed as a master, and the other is a middle-aged man wearing a white scholar's uniform. He looks very gentle and elegant.
"What a terrifying army. When the previous commander Mou Bin was in power, the Imperial Guards were not so strong!"
The old man shook the white feather fan in his hand and looked extremely serious. It seemed that he had never expected that there would be such a terrifying army in this world.
The feeling of facing the deep sea is suffocating!
"Perhaps this is why Zhengde insisted on letting Lin Nuo serve as military attache. Our little emperor does not value the army very much!" The scholar in white patted the long sword hanging on his waist, and his whole body was filled with excitement.
He tensed up involuntarily.
"Scholar, if you are asked to face these three thousand troops, are you sure you can kill Lin Nuo and then retreat calmly?"
"Master, you think too highly of me. If it were an ordinary guard army, it would be possible, but these three thousand cavalry are like killing machines. If they charge directly into the formation, Lin Nuo is probably not dead yet. I
You’ll have to be shot into a sieve!”
"Oh? This army is even afraid of the scholar you killed?" The old man was a little surprised. In his impression, this great master under King Ning never knew what fear was.
"Master, you don't practice martial arts, so you don't know the secrets of this!" The deadly scholar smiled and shook his head, "Look at the knights in royal robes, marching all the way, their formations are not disordered at all, and there is no sound except the sound of horse hooves. The most important thing is
What’s more, the long bows they carry behind them are at least one and a half stone long, and many soldiers even use two stone bows!”
"Do you know what this means? Almost all of these three thousand cavalry are sharpshooters!"
"Facing three thousand sharpshooters, not to mention me, even Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City, can only retreat in time, otherwise he will die if his internal strength is exhausted!"
The deadly scholar kept praising the power of the army below, but the old man next to him nodded noncommittally, turned around, and waved behind him.
The next moment, an extremely short old man appeared quietly and knelt on one knee beside the master.
"Send a few dead soldiers to charge into the battle!" the master ordered.
"No!" The short old man swayed and disappeared directly, leaving behind a cloud of white smoke.
"Don't you believe my words?"
The fatal scholar was a little angry. He had just said it in such detail, but the prince's number one master still sent people to find out about Lin Nuo. This was a distrust of him!
"Of course I believe what you say!" The old man shook the feather fan in his hand, looking like he was strategizing, "But I must see with my own eyes what level of combat power Lin Nuo's army has reached, so as not to make plans in the future.
Something went wrong!"
"As a planner, if you take one step at a time and see three steps at a time, you must find a way to completely clarify the vague things. Only in this way, the prince's great cause will not have any accidents!"
The fatal scholar nodded indifferently, "You are the master, you have the final say. Anyway, I am only responsible for your safety, and other things are not my concern!"
In the slightly expectant and nervous eyes of the master and the deadly scholar, several dead soldiers in black suddenly rushed out from the shops on both sides of the street. Without any words, they headed directly in the direction of Lin Nuo.
Rush away quickly.
Phew! Phew! Phew!......
Without any surprise, arrows rained down from the sky, directly shooting several dead soldiers into sieves.
The knights in uniforms bent their bows and nocked arrows so fast that they didn’t even need to aim, they shot directly based on their feelings. A few dead soldiers even rushed out of a distance of seven or eight meters, and their whole bodies were overwhelmed by arrows.
.
The densely packed arrows were all embedded in the bodies of the dead soldiers, and not a single arrow missed!
"You are right, this army is too terrifying!" Master took a deep breath, "Let's go, the layout here has failed, it's time to leave!"
"Leave like this? In one month at most, riots will break out in several provinces south of the Yangtze River. We spent a lot of money and material resources to control food prices before, but now we just give up?"
"Scholar, if you lose a game of chess, you must know how to stop your losses in time. If you are obsessed with fighting, you will only lose more and more miserably. Don't act out of emotion!" the old man advised.
The deadly scholar tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword, looking very unwilling to do so.
This world is a world of literati. He is a talented scholar. Although he has strong military skills, almost no one is willing to reuse him except the prince.
The reason why he was willing to follow King Ning was that he valued King Ning's ambition to seize the throne, and he wanted to be a minister who obeyed the dragon.
This time, everyone under King Ning started planning the layout of Jiangnan several years ago. They spent a lot of contacts, financial resources, and material resources to achieve the situation where food prices in several provinces in Jiangnan have skyrocketed and people cannot afford to eat.
As long as we persist for another month, if riots break out in several provinces south of the Yangtze River, the prince can take advantage of the situation, decisively send troops to occupy the area south of the Yangtze River, and rule across the river from the Beijing court.
But now, the master is determined to give up this plan. How can he be willing to do so?
"Master, did we really lose this game? I don't see where we lost?"
"If we lose, we lose. When Lin Nuo led these three thousand elites into the city, we lost!" The Master sighed helplessly, "You will never think that Lin Nuo led the troops into the city just for the sake of
Sightseeing?"
"He's here to kill!"
"With such a large army at hand, unless the local garrison is willing to rebel immediately, no one can stop him!"
"Let's go, the four major families are finished. Without them controlling behind the scenes, the price of food will soon return to the original price. This chess game can no longer be maintained!"
Having said this, the master sighed again, "Everything depends on people, and everything depends on God. The original seamless chess game has an extra variable like Lin Nuo. I can only say that the time for the prince to achieve great things has not yet come!"
