Looking at the capital city bathed in flames in the distance, Mu Zian was startled!
Logically speaking, the capital city should not have been captured so quickly!
But there's no time to think about that now!
Mu Zian immediately gave the order.
"Block the city gates! Cooperate with the defenders inside the city! Annihilate all these Xiongnu!"
There are two pieces of news currently facing Mu Zian.
Bad news: the Huns have stormed into the city.
The good news, however, was that the city was crisscrossed by narrow alleys, making it impossible for the Xiongnu's most prized cavalry to run.
Street fighting and foot fighting, with both sides engaging in equal combat.
How could these bow-legged Xiongnu possibly be a match for the elite Han Chinese!
As long as they are trapped inside the city, they will be at the mercy of the authorities!
Zhao Yun, Luo Cheng, Han Shizhong, and Liang Hongyu replied upon hearing this.
"I obey!"
At the same time that three thousand warhorses galloped toward the north gate, Mu Zian closed his eyes and murmured softly.
"Begin the summoning!"
As Mu Zian's voice faded, time seemed to stand still!
"Ding-dong! System summoning in progress!"
"This summoning will summon three mysterious infantry regiments of one thousand men each from the history of China! And will be accompanied by a general who will lead the troops."
"The host can choose to remove one item, and the system will randomly select from the remaining two items!"
"Ding! Summoning complete!"
"The first one! The Wei Wuzu of the Great Wei Kingdom during the Warring States period!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Zian was overjoyed!
The Wei Wuzu were an army established by Wu Qi, a military strategist.
The selection criteria for Wei Wuzu were extremely strict. They had to be able to wear heavy armor, carry a long halberd, have an iron sword at their waist, carry a large crossbow on their back, carry three days' worth of rations, and march 100 li (50 kilometers) in half a day to pass the test!
Wu Qi led the Wei elite troops in battles across the north and south, creating a legendary record of 72 major battles, 64 of which were victorious and the rest ended in a draw!
During the thirty years that the Wei Wu soldiers dominated the world, Wu Qi led them to break through Hangu Pass and seize more than 500 li of land on the west bank of Qin, compressing Qin into a narrow strip of land west of Mount Hua.
In the Battle of Yin Jin in the thirteenth year of King An of Zhou, Wu Qi defeated a Qin army ten times his size with 50,000 Wei Wu soldiers, making him a representative of the strongest and most valiant soldiers at that time.
"The second one: the White Feather Soldiers of Shu Han!"
The Three Kingdoms period was a time of chaos and plenty of elite troops.
For example, Cao Wei's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, Sun Quan's Jie Fan Army, and Gao Shun's Trapped Camp, etc.
As the absolute protagonist of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei, the Emperor Zhaolie of Han, also had a personal guard that was comparable to theirs.
This army was the White Feather Army. Although there are few historical records of the White Feather Army, their fighting power should not be underestimated.
Chen Dao, the commander of the White Feather Army, was a general second only to Zhao Yun.
The White Feather Soldiers, as personal guards, were similar to Yuan Shao's "Halberd Soldiers" and possessed strong defensive capabilities.
The most famous battle fought by the White Feather Army was the Battle of Baidi City, which determined the fate of Shu Han.
Because Liu Bei's army was almost completely wiped out in the Battle of Yiling, he could only lead the remnants of his troops into Baidi City for defense.
Chen Dao led 700 White Feather Soldiers in a fierce battle against 3,000 Wu soldiers, suffering only 200 casualties in the end, which deterred Eastern Wu from advancing westward.
It can be said that the White Feather Army extended the life of Shu Han by several decades.
If it weren't for the White Feather Army, the entire Shu Han state would likely have been conquered by Eastern Wu after the Battle of Yiling.
"The third one: the Tang Dynasty Mo Dao Brigade!"
Upon hearing the words "Mo Dao Team," Mu Zi'an's breathing quickened instantly.
As one of the most brilliant dynasties in the entire history of China, the Tang Dynasty earned its reputation through countless battles.
The Mo Dao team was the most dazzling star in the entire brilliant Tang Dynasty!
They were the elite among the elite of the Tang Dynasty!
The value of a single Mo Dao (陌刀) was equivalent to fifteen years' salary for a county magistrate in the Tang Dynasty.
Those who can wield the Mo Dao (陌刀) are all, without exception, death-level figures in the military!
The Battle of Xiangji Temple in the Tang Dynasty was one of the most glorious achievements of the Mo Dao Army!
In 757 AD, in order to recapture Chang'an, the Tang army and An Lushan's rebel army engaged in a fierce battle in the vicinity of Xiangji Temple!
This battle featured elite troops on both sides! It was arguably the strongest civil war in the Tang Dynasty!
Two hundred and sixty thousand troops clashed head-on! Within a single day, thirteen thousand men were reduced to corpses! Blood stained the earth red!
At the cost of 70,000 Tang soldiers dying in battle, the Tang army killed 60,000 rebel soldiers!
The two sides fought with an astonishing 1-1 casualty ratio!
It's important to know that in the era of cold weapons, the critical point for the collapse of an army was 15%!
If it exceeds 15%, the army will completely collapse!
The Battle of Xiangji Temple resulted in a casualty rate of 50% for both sides!
This means that soldiers on both sides were practically trampling over the corpses of their comrades as they continued their charge!
It can be described as the pinnacle of massive human-on-human combat!
In this epic battle, the Mo Dao army played a decisive role!
Just as the rebel cavalry had nearly breached the Tang army's defenses, Li Siye, the War God of the Mo Dao (陌刀), led three thousand Mo Dao soldiers into the battlefield.
On the battlefield, the Mo Dao (陌刀) troops advanced like a city wall! Wielding their Mo Dao, they cleaved the charging cavalry in half!
The Mo Dao is actually a long-handled horse-chopping sword. A single sword can weigh up to fifty catties, and with a swing, both men and horses can be shattered.
It was thanks to these three thousand Mo Dao soldiers that the Tang army ultimately turned defeat into victory!
Although the Tang army won the Battle of Xiangji Temple, it concealed a dirty deal between the Tang Dynasty and the Uyghurs!
Emperor Suzong of Tang promised that "after the city is captured, the gold, silk, women and children will be returned to the Uyghurs."
After the Battle of Xiangji Temple, Emperor Suzong of Tang, who had recaptured Luoyang, allowed the Uyghur soldiers to burn, kill, and loot for three days, and the people suffered humiliation.
From then on, the prestige of the Tang Dynasty was completely lost.
It can be said that although the Battle of Xiangji Temple forcibly extended the life of the Tang Dynasty by 150 years, it also drained the last of the Tang Dynasty's elite forces.
However, even so, it cannot conceal the brilliance of the Mo Dao team!
"Ding! The system has completed its summoning! Please select the units to remove!"
Perhaps as compensation for the previous summons of treacherous officials, the three legions this time are all quite powerful.
Mu Zian took a deep breath and immediately spoke.
"Remove the Shu Han White Feather Soldiers."
Although the Shu Han White Feather Army was also very strong, their strength lay in defense.
However, in this situation, facing the overwhelming Xiongnu cavalry, Mu Zian needed a swift blade!
The Wei Wuzu and Modao troops are more suited to this battlefield.
"Ding dong! The 'Shu Han White Feather Soldiers' system is currently drawing characters, please wait!"
At this moment, Mu Zi'an was very calm. Whether it was the Wei Wuzu or the Mo Dao team, they would be the decisive forces at present.
"Ding-dong! Congratulations, host, you have successfully summoned the 'Tang Dynasty Mo Dao Team'."
"Ding-dong! Congratulations, host, you have received the Tang Dynasty Mo Dao Brigade commander, Li Siye, as a bonus from the system. Please check your account!"
Mu Zian couldn't help but smile!
Cavalry, the Mo Dao (陌刀) unit! This is simply a match made in heaven!
Time rewinds! Mu Zi'an, atop his horse, gazes into the distance as the cold wind whips against his face. He lets out a cold laugh.
"It's fate that's going to kill you! You can't blame anyone else!"
