Chapter 1009 Eagle
There had been numerous small battles between Shuozhou of Daxia and the six towns of Rouran over the years, but there had never been a serious battle in which hundreds of thousands of troops were gathered and ready for a real battle like they had done many years ago.
However, in the past half month, there have been conflicts between small groups of cavalrymen of several hundred people roaming on the border grasslands, and then thousands of people gathered to fight against each other. Then a few days ago, Erzhu Rong, the real commander of the six Rouran towns in Mobei, led his two thousand Iron Pagodas and six thousand Canglang Guards to defeat the five thousand iron cavalry led by Zhou Buhuan under Zong Ze of Great Xia.
To this day, the negative energy is getting heavier and the murderous aura is overflowing over the vast grassland.
Huaishuo Town is the most frontline and impregnable military town among the six Rouran towns. It has towering high walls. If you don't know its origin, it is not a town but a huge and majestic city.
On the city wall, in addition to the densely packed Mobei warriors, there are also large crossbows scattered everywhere. These are expensive to make and are considered the most important national weapon in the eyes of military strategists. At a glance, there are at least forty or fifty of them.
Moreover, this large crossbow has a very long range and great power. Even if the Grandmaster of the End wanted to rush over and destroy it, the Grandmaster of the End would have to retreat if the large crossbows of dozens of feet long fired at it.
This large crossbow brought from Daxia to Mobei by the traitor was once the subject of the Mohist School's first comment: "A crossbow as big as nine oxen can destroy a chariot with one arrow. After more than ten arrows, a hundred steps will kill everyone if they stop." '
Now all the large crossbows are ready!
Whether it was the old general Erzhu Xinxing on the city wall, or Mozhe Dati, or Erzhu Rong who received the seal of the Queen Mother of Mobei and led the battle southward on the Rouran battlefield, they had all experienced the danger of the large crossbow, and therefore were more prepared.
As long as Daxia dares to come, let them experience the power of this crossbow.
When they went south, this big crossbow caused them a lot of trouble.

Mo Zheda was wearing a set of armor, holding the scimitar at his waist with one hand, and looking ahead in the bright moonlight: "Tianbao, will Zong Ze really come?"
The one-eyed Erzhu Rong looked murderous under the moonlight, especially his one eye, which, if you looked closely, actually had two pupils.
Moreover, when Erzhu Rong was born, there was thunder and strong wind, but he never cried at all. His hands were clenched tightly, and his expression was like the Heavenly King of Hell in the shamanic legend who guards the hell and prevents the evil spirits from coming out.
Especially because of this pair of eyes, many rumors have emerged, especially the people on the grassland regard it as the reincarnation of the king of heaven, assisting the king who is the son of God to lead them to a happy life.
In the last war, Erzhu Rong had made numerous military achievements and almost killed Zhu Huang, a general under the previous emperor of Great Xia. He led his men to form the Iron Pagoda and destroyed the Great Halberd Soldiers of Great Xia. He was the first to ascend the battlefield many times and had outstanding military exploits. He had a very high prestige in Mobei. Helian Bobo once said, "When it comes to leading troops to fight, I am not as good as Tianbao." '
The most important thing is that if Zhong Shuoxing had not appeared, Erzhu Rong would actually be the King of the Southern Courtyard. However, the Queen Mother and Erzhu Rong had said something to each other, and Erzhu Rong took the initiative to recommend Zhong Shuoxing to give up the position of King of the Southern Courtyard.
But even so, in the Rouran, everyone had great faith in Erzhu Rong, and subconsciously, they completely regarded Erzhu Rong as the King of the Southern Courtyard.
Even the older generation such as Mozhedati, Hebaduba, and his father Erzhu Xinxing believed in him.
At that moment, after hearing what Mozhe Dati said, Erzhu Rong said, "He will come. He has deliberately lost to us so many times in recent days just to make us let down our guard."
Erzhu Bi, a man who looked somewhat similar to Erzhu Rong, spoke up at this time: "Brother, Zong Ze should have guessed it. You can see it, right? What if he deliberately kept us alert and made us think he would come?"
Erzhu Rong said: "It is for this reason that he will definitely come."
Hearing this, Erzhu Bi looked at Erzhu Rong in confusion.
Even the generals nearby all looked at Erzhu Rong.
Erzhu Rong placed one hand on the city wall and looked to the south. "We still don't know how to use the weapon of Daxia, but after talking with Podi, I know that the weapon is extremely powerful. If I had that weapon, I would completely make the people of Daxia fall into despair and destroy their minds. We will definitely win this battle. Zongze's previous small friction with us seemed to have lost more than won, but in fact they lost very little, let us win, and then use that weapon to completely destroy us. This is Zongze's idea, and he didn't even intend to hide it."
Hearing this, the people around looked at each other, and then Mo Zhe Dati laughed and said, "Are you confident in your weapons? Do you think we are Goguryeo or Joseon?"
Erzhu Xinxing shook his head: "We can't be careless. We have fought with Zongze for so many years. He is not so arrogant. Maybe the weapon is so powerful. However, Zhong Shuoxing and Helian Bobo should have tested the weapon in Yinshan, but there has been no news."
Heba Duba narrowed his eyes: "Maybe there is something wrong, but we can try it ourselves."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the south.
The moon is extremely bright today. Under the clear moonlight, the entire earth can be seen clearly.
And in the direction that Heba Duba pointed, between heaven and earth, from south to north, there was an existence under the moon that was like a tide, slowly advancing, stretching endlessly, the neighing of war horses, gathering like thunder, and then the earth shook.
All the fierce soldiers of Mobei on the city wall put their hands on the hilts of their swords, and the archers directly took down their bows, and the soldiers controlling the large crossbows were also ready.
Erzhu Rong narrowed his one eye and clearly saw the man at the forefront of the army.
The man who said, 'You almost killed my brother, so you must die' and plucked out his eye, but fortunately he was saved by others.
Erzhu Rong lost two battles in his life, both times at the hands of Zong Ze.
You Lian rode up to Zong Ze and said, "Marshal, as you said, they are on guard waiting for us."
Zong Ze nodded and looked at Huaishuo. Erzhu Rong and Huaishuo were the only important military town in his field of vision. "Notify them that they are within range. No need to say anything. Just fire. However, use the Shenji crossbow to tell them first that we no longer use the large crossbow they use."
Upon hearing this, the general standing by clasped his fists, then turned around and left.
Zong Ze looked at the town and continued, "You Lian, inform everyone that tonight, we must not only capture Huaishuo, but also Wuchuan, so move quickly. There is no need to fight hand-to-hand unless the enemy rushes up."
You Lian clasped his fists.
But just when You Lian was about to turn around.
Zong Ze spoke again: "Tell the three armies not to kill those below the wheel. If you kill them, do it according to their rules."
You Lian nodded again.
Boom~~~
Just as Zong Ze finished speaking, the cavalry made way for the corridors, and the objects pulled by the war horses appeared in the sight of Erzhu Rong and others.

PS: That’s it for today. The H1N1 flu is very uncomfortable. I would normally update more if I could bear it. But today I really can’t bear it anymore. I won’t take my monthly leave at the beginning of March.
