Emperor: When will the Seventh Prince rebel? I will open the city gates to welcome him.

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan looked at the generals in the military tent and said:

"Besides General Murong Zhou, who else among you is willing to stay in the city?"

"Those who are willing to stay in the city will all be under the command of General Murong!"

Everyone understood and reacted. The King of Zhenbei was really going to attack the Iron Cavalry of Beishang.

When it came to this, all the officers in the military tent looked grim.

Defending a city and attacking a city are two different things.

Defending the city has the advantage of geographical location and topography, but if we really abandon the city and open the city gates to fight against the Beishang cavalry, what is the chance of winning?

Did Zhen Beitian really think that if he lost the city, he could use these northern border guards to destroy the Northern Merchants' cavalry? Obviously, this was unrealistic.

A brave cavalry captain stepped out.

He clasped his hands together and said to King Zhenbei:

"King Zhenbei! There is a huge gap in military strength between our Dafeng Kingdom and the Beishang Kingdom.

The Northern Shang Kingdom is good at riding and shooting! Not only that, their cavalry is also brave and good at fighting.

We in Dafeng can only defend the border and take advantage of the city. How can we give up the city and fight to the death with Beishang? This is the way to death. I hope King Zhenbei will think twice!"

"I hope King Zhenbei will think twice!"

In the military tent, all the officers clasped their fists to Hongxuan and said: I hope you will think twice about what I said.

It is obvious that they are not stupid and are unwilling to give up the city and fight against the cavalry of the Northern Shang Kingdom.

Hongxuan looked at everyone in the military tent.

"You guys defend the city now! Can you make the Northern Merchants' cavalry retreat by holding out?"

"I feel that if we continue to hold our ground, the Northern Merchants' cavalry will become more and more arrogant!"

"As the saying goes, you can only strike out to destroy the thief, there is no reason to guard against the thief for a thousand days!"

A general stepped forward:

"King Zhenbei, I think the border guards of Dafeng do not have the fighting power to fight head-on with the cavalry of Beishang. If so, it would be a way to die. How can our border guards have the strength to fight against those cavalry?"

Hongxuan looked at the generals in the military tent, and no one was willing to go out of the city to fight against the Northern Shang cavalry.

"Okay! I understand what you mean. Since you don't want to leave the city to fight with the Northern Merchants, then I will put all of you under the command of General Murong Zhou, and you will stay and guard the border city!"

The generals in the military tent were overjoyed when they heard Hongxuan say this.

"Since you are willing to stay and defend the city, then except for General Murong Zhou, all of you will be demoted to ordinary soldiers."

The faces of these generals and cavalry captains changed drastically.

"King Zhenbei, how could you demote all of us to soldiers?"

"That's right, King Zhenbei, we have been guarding the border for so many years, why are we now demoted to soldiers again?"

"I don't accept it, I don't accept it!"

Hongxuan sneered:

"You generals and cavalry officers have obtained your positions by wasting your time, not by real ability.

Since you want to stay and defend the city, then you must have the awareness to defend the city. I am leading the soldiers to fight outside, do you think you can just sit back and enjoy the fruits of my labor in this city?"

“Even if the king agrees! Will those soldiers who went out to fight to the death with the Northern Shang cavalry agree?

Why do they not get high positions and generous salaries when they are fighting in the front, while you who are just defending the status quo enjoy the treatment of high-ranking officials? "

One general said angrily:

"Then why wasn't General Murong Zhou demoted to a soldier?"

Hongxuan sneered:

"Murong Zhou is my princess's uncle, so he is naturally a royal relative. Can you compare?"

Once this was said, no one disagreed.

Tong Xuan would certainly not let Murong Zhou go out of the city to fight, because his princess Murong Yan and Murong Qing were in the city and of course needed Murong Zhou's care. How could he let Murong Zhou go out to fight?

Of course Murong Zhou knew in his heart that he stayed to take care of his two princesses.

"I am telling you officers, I have different ideas from you!"

"You think that all we need to do is defend the city. I think it's better to beat these Northern Merchants and destroy them. Otherwise, they will always think that our Great Feng Kingdom is weak and can be bullied!"

"You can never defend yourself. The best defense is to destroy the enemy!"

Hongxuan's words touched their hearts.

But although that's what he said, he also had to look at the reality. The soldiers at hand were definitely no match for the Beishang cavalry.

"Qilin Five Guards!"

"The humble position is here!"

The five Qilin guards knelt on one knee.

"Gather all the border soldiers!"

"It's a message from the Qilin Guards!"

Half an hour later, the Qilin Five Guards came to Hong Hongxuan.

"Reporting to King Zhenbei, all the soldiers guarding the northern border have been assembled!"

"very good!"

Hong Xuan looked at the generals and cavalry officers in the military tent and said:

"Now all of you will follow me to the battlefield to inspect the troops!"

All the officers followed Hongxuan out of the tent and arrived at the battlefield.

One hundred thousand border guards have been assembled on the entire battlefield.

These 100,000 border guards are all the military forces in the entire North.

Hongxuan looked at the 100,000 soldiers guarding the battlefield and felt emotional.

"I finally have control over such a huge military power! One hundred thousand troops are just the beginning. In the future, I will have more military power!"

Hongxuan stood on a high platform and gave orders to the 100,000 soldiers guarding the battlefield.

"To all the soldiers in the northern border, I, Hongxuan, the King of Zhenbei, am your highest commander!"

“My fellow soldiers, our 100,000 northern border guards will fight to the death with the Northern Shang cavalry!

Behind us are our Dafengguo, our loved ones, and the land we swear to defend with our lives! The enemy's iron hoof is approaching, and we have no way to retreat. We can only stand up and fight bravely!

We are the strong shield of Dafeng State and the hope of Dafeng people! The battle with Beishang Iron Cavalry is about the survival of Dafeng State and the dignity of the nation! We cannot retreat and we cannot be afraid!

Let us charge forward with fearless courage, holding our guns and riding our horses! Let us cut off the enemy's path with our sharp swords! Let us protect every inch of Dafeng's land with our iron will!

We must fight the enemy to the death, either win or die! For Dafeng, for the people, let's fight! Let's write history with our blood and defend our glory with our lives!

Warriors of the North, let us charge! Charge! Charge!"

All the border guards of Dafeng State were excited at this moment. They felt that their lives were starting to ignite as they fought to the death for Dafeng State and the cavalry of Beishang.

“Charge, charge, charge!”

One hundred thousand border guards below the stage roared in unison.

The generals and cavalry officers who came with King Zhenbei were extremely shocked when they saw this scene. They had never seen their guards be so imposing and heroic.

Are these the guards from before? Now they are a mighty army, led by a lion.

This is completely different from the soldiers led by the weak sheep before.
