Li Zhe didn't know that behind him, the hereditary princes of Tianzhu were all stimulated by his victory over the Ning Wang Domain, and they were all boiling with their blood, and they all ignited the long-dormant Jin Ge Iron Horse's desire to open up.

Of course, even if he knew, it was estimated that his thoughts were similar to those of the one who lived in King An's palace and had been promoted to the queen of King An.

The small court of Tianzhu had no intention of controlling and controlling these princes under its command. The behavior of these princes was welcomed by the imperial court.

Now is the best time in Tianzhu's history to open up to the outside world, if these guys can use all their energy outside to grab more resources for Tianzhu, the imperial court is still eager to do it.

People are not rich without windfalls, and horses are not fertile without night grass, and this principle is the same for the country.

After the era entered the Age of Discovery, all the countries on this planet seemed to understand this truth.

Anyway, those guys grabbed things, and in the end they still have to integrate into the big family of Tianzhu, as long as they manage the basic plate of Tianzhu and make themselves stronger, then there is no problem.

Tianzhu and these external princes are interdependent.

These princes became stronger, and Tianzhu naturally benefited from it.

This world is a world of cruel competition, and survival of the fittest is the theme of this era.

Since mankind has had civilization, there has never been an era as cruel as the present era, in which countless countries and nations have disappeared, hundreds of millions of people have been killed by various means, and countless ancient civilizations have disappeared under the iron hooves of the colonizers.

This is the colonial era.

The only thing Li Zhe can do is to try to make himself strong and eliminate others, not be eliminated by others.

Shangmanraka, Anzhou, and Ningwang are second only to the big cities of Dinghai.

Located in the Klang River Basin, surrounded by the Phuoc Yen Mountains to the east, hills to the north and south, and the Manchurian Strait to the west, Anju is known as Kuala Lumpur on the modern world map, the capital of Malaysia. But in this era, because of Dinghai, it was the second largest city in the Ning Dynasty.

At this moment, the Tianzhu army led by Li Zhe personally stopped under the city of Anzhou.

In Lower Manraka, Yang Wuving, the veteran commander of the Tianzhu Army, had already led the Weiyuan Army all the way to Palembang at the southern end of Lower Manraka. And Shangmanraka led his troops to Anzhou, which also meant conquering half of the territory of Shangmanraka.

Along the way, the fighting enthusiasm of the generals and subjects of the Ning Wang Domain was unprecedentedly low, and there was almost no pressure on the Tianzhu Raiding Army, Li Zhe led his men to fight here almost all the way to the ground, and the battle at sea was smooth, and the land was even more magical than the sea, which had already laid down almost three-quarters of the territory of the Ning Wang Domain.

And Ning Wang Fan hadn't even shown the slightest bit of decent resistance.

This made Li Zhe despise him more and more for the king of Ning who dared to hunt down him at the beginning, just this little ability, and he wanted to block his Li Zhe's soldiers, it was a dream!

This Anzhou city is one of the largest cities in King Ning's domain, and there is another general under King Ning in the city, Sun Chuanwang, a famous general under King Ning who really rose from small soldiers all the way to the position of general, led an army of 100,000 people here to block Li Zhe.

This is probably the last stumbling block for King Ning in addition to Dinghai.

Sun Chuanwang is known as an army of 100,000, of course, it can't be a real number, in this era when elite soldiers are king, it is not bad to have 20,000 or 30,000 real elite soldiers among these 100,000 soldiers.

In Li Zhe's own hands, more than 20,000 soldiers from the two compartments of the Japanese army were the main force, and the remaining 50,000 or 60,000 were all the private armies of the princes from all walks of life and the privateer regiments of the major merchant groups, with nearly 100,000 troops, about the same as the enemy army in the city.

Li Zhe and the enemy general Sun Chuanwang, one is known as the first general in the Anwang Domain, and the other is a famous general who is good at guarding the Ningwang Domain, one is twenty Xu, and the other is more than sixty.

Li Zhe is known for his innovative tactics, while Sun Chuanwang is a champion of the old phalanx tactics.

One attack and one defense, the strength is about the same, the two are against each other, who can win?

Li Zhe also heard rumors that Sun Chuanwang personally promised in His Royal Highness King Ning that he would definitely be able to block Li Zhejun under the city. This old general, I don't know the confidence I have to take it?

When Li Zhe arrived at the city, he saw that the enemy army had no intention of going out of the city to fight, so he directly assigned his men to camp, and under the nose of the enemy army in the city, they were stuck together along the northern end.

The topography of Anzhou, surrounded by water on one side and mountains on the other, is hilly in the north and south, which is not conducive to encirclement, and Li Zhe has no intention of encircling.

He did not divide his troops, but planned to push them flat from the northern end and climb the city wall.

In this era, the tactics of relying on the city wall defense were still the mainstream, and the field artillery of the black powder era still lacked the strength to make a final decision.

On the sea side of the strait, the warships of the 10th Brigade lined up a few miles of beach, ready to join in the bombardment of Anzhou City.

The Tianzhu Crusade Army has been overwhelming all the way, not to mention that the person who commanded the armies this time was the supreme commander of the whole army, Li Zhe, who was known as the undefeated famous general.

The morale of all the soldiers in the large army camp is like a rainbow, and no one thinks that this Anzhou city can block the front of the army.

………………………………

In the city, in the watchtower, Sun Chuanwang held a clairvoyant mirror engraved with beautiful golden patterns, looking at the Tianzhu army camp under the city. The Tianzhu army's almost insulting encampment of the army in the city made the generals furious:

"General, it's better to open the city gate, open the way with artillery, and let the last general lead the troops to rush and kill for a while, there is no one in the eyes of these Tianzhu barbarians in the province."

It was General Xie Shaozhen who spoke, and the cavalry battalion under his command was the only field cavalry under King Ning. Just as Tianzhu has a cavalry battalion under the command of the Japanese army, King Ning also needs the same elite cavalry under his command. In this era, the cavalry's ability to charge into battle was still irreplaceable, and it was still the main force in the war.

The cavalry army under Xie Shaozhen is known as the aristocratic battalion, and the mounts of each cavalry in the battalion are the varieties of Tianzhu horses sold from the west after improvement and adaptation. The Na Zhu Horse is known as the fastest horse in the world today, and it is the first choice in all previous horse races, and you can imagine the cost of this cavalry just from the mount.

King Ning's creation of such a cavalry army is not just for viewing.

Sun Chuanwang came to defend Anzhou this time, and King Ning deliberately transferred this cavalry army to his command, hoping to make a contribution in one fell swoop.

Now, looking at the Tianzhu army that is camped there less than ten miles away from the city, is it going to send troops and give them a blow?
