Zhu Heng waited for three whole days before the scouts on the mountain sent a warning that a small group of Jian Slave Cavalry was moving towards Guangning.
"They're finally here. This time, I'm going to give you a big surprise.”
Thinking of the rewards for signing in for the past three days, excitement could not help but appear in his eyes.
In these three days, the harvest from every check-in was very rich.
The reward for signing in on the first day was food machinery.
There were 100,000 tons of grain, and the variety was also very rich. There were fine grains and coarse grains.
In addition, a batch of city defense equipment was also given.
The arrival of this batch of food greatly alleviated Guangning's current demand for food.
One had to know that there were only about 10,000 people in the entire Guang Ning City.
According to the calculation of three catties of food per person per day, the maximum amount of food per day was 30000 catties, which was 15 tons.
These 100,000 tons of rations were enough to support the city for more than 6000 days.
This batch of grain could not be stored in the city at the moment. Most of it could only be stored in the system space.
On the day they received the grain, the grain stores in the city began to sell the cheap grain in large quantities.
The purpose of doing so was to exchange for money and to stabilize the people's hearts.
After all, he had food in his hands, so he did not panic.
The commoners could only help Zhu Heng defend the city when they were full. Only then could they be united as one.
The rewards for signing in on the second day were also very generous.
He was rewarded with an entire artillery battalion.
This was different from the cavalry artillery of the cavalry unit.
The cavalry cannon company used a 6-pound light field cannon, which was not very powerful and had a poor range.
As infantry support, their firepower was a little weak, but they were more mobile.
The weakest weapon in the artillery battalion was the M1841 12-pound Napoleon Field Cannon, while the most powerful was the M1841 32-pound Field Howitzer.
There were a total of three artillery companies. The first company was equipped with six 12-pound field cannons, the second company was equipped with six 24-pound field howitzers, and the third company was equipped with four 32-pound field howitzers.
The entire artillery battalion had a total of 800 people, and the number of horses and mules exceeded 200.
In other words, each cannon required more than 10 mules or horses to serve.
Among them were ammunition trucks, spare parts trucks, component trucks, supply trucks, and so on.
With these 16 cannons and the 20 small cannons of the cavalry artillery company, the two of them were able to launch a total of 16 cannons.
It was more than enough to defend the high walls of Guang Ning City.
The reward for signing in on the third day was the surprise Zhu Heng had prepared for Slave Jian.
"Sign in successful. Congratulations on obtaining an elite cavalry regiment.”
Cavalry was the absolute trump card in Zhu Heng's hands.
Hence, Zhu Heng incorporated the 1st Cavalry Battalion into the 1st Cavalry Regiment.
The entire cavalry regiment had a total of 4 cavalry battalions.
Only then did Zhu Heng know that the 1st Cavalry Battalion was a reinforced battalion with cannons.
With the addition of the 1st Battalion, the Cavalry Regiment now had 2 Cavalry Cannons, a total of 40 Light Cavalry Cannons.
A total of four cavalry battalions and a cavalry artillery company, a total of over 2,000 people, were arranged by Zhu Heng to settle down in a secret camp a few miles away.
When Slave Jian came to attack the city.
If this cavalry suddenly charged out from behind them, coupled with the city defense firepower, they would not be able to escape.
Even if 10,000 Building Slaves came, Zhu Heng wouldn't be afraid.
Besides, could Slave Jian still mobilize so many soldiers?
Slave Jian later told Zhu Heng that they really did have that many soldiers.
After Guang Ning City was taken down, Shengjing Sect was furious.
Not only did Guang Ning control the western part of Liaoning, but it was also one of the main routes to Mengyuan.
This was because there was a Great Xing 'an Mountain between the northeast and Mengyuan.
If Huang Taiji wanted to return to Shengjing from Mengyuan, Guangning City would be the nearest passage.
Therefore, several ministers of Shengjing immediately gave an order to Gushan Ezhendarhan.
They would take down Guang Ning City at all costs and avenge the thousands of soldiers who had lost their lives.
Other than the five Niu Lu who were stationed around Mount Pan.
Dalhan had also gathered the Han soldiers that he had previously looked down on, a total of 5,000 men.
Six thousand cavalrymen, five thousand Han soldiers, and more than ten thousand people marched towards Guangning.
Moreover, Shengjing City had also mobilized a portion of their forces on the border of Goguryeo to Haizhou and Gaizhou to keep an eye on the Guanning Army.
In fact, they didn't even need to keep an eye on Guan Ningjun.
The Guanning Army had 30,000 men, with 5,000 Guanning Iron Cavalry as the core.
These five thousand cavalry had all been taken by Overseer Yuan into the pass to reinforce the capital.
Currently, there were only about 10,000 infantrymen in Guan Ningjin's defense line, and the Golden Phoenix Country was in charge of commanding them.
Overseer Yuan repeatedly warned them not to attack without authorization before the expedition.
Besides, the Golden Phoenix Country and Zhu Heng had a grudge against each other, so they wouldn't take the initiative to rescue him.
On the afternoon of the third day, the small troops of both sides fought on the cordon of Guang Ning City.
In terms of cavalry, Zhu Heng naturally had the upper hand.
The sturdy plate armor gave the cavalrymen a strong defensive ability.
Coupled with the improved Arabian warhorses, they could easily carry them on their backs.
The dark clouds of war began to shroud Guang Ning City.
Just as the battle was about to break out, a report from Guang Ning City arrived in the capital.
At this time, Huang Taiji also received a report from outside the pass.
