In front of the Royal Palace.

A large number of forts have been built these days.

Small forts, like nails, are scattered all around, densely packed, and the whole area is planted.

Countless soldiers, armed with muskets and bombs of various forms, crouched above, silently waiting for the opportunity.

The walls of Chang'an City are very high, but the walls of the imperial palace are relatively low, but they are also defensive walls after all.

Behind the palace, there are also a large number of soldiers.

There were probably tens of thousands of soldiers.

Zhao Xuanqi was wearing armor, the jet-black armor wrapped him, and the heavy armor covered his body, setting off him with great dignity.

He looked into the distance, half-squinted, and found a burst of fire coming from the direction of the gate of Chang'an City, followed by countless noises, and the momentum was monstrous.

"The rebels have entered the city..."

Zhao Xuanqi saw these actions from afar, why didn't he understand this truth?

He took a deep breath and slowly looked at the group of soldiers behind him, many of whom were on the battlefield for the first time and participated in this kind of general battle for the first time.

At this moment, their bodies are constantly trembling because of nervousness or fear, and some people dare not look at people.

Soldiers are people, not weapons.

As long as it is human, it will be afraid, and as long as it is human, it will be excited.

Looking at these immature faces, looking at these soldiers who were willing to follow him, Zhao Xuanqi slowly spoke.

Take a final oath to them.

Give them pre-war encouragement.

He wants to inspire all the soldiers and soldiers in battle:

"The rebels have entered the city!"

"We must guard the palace!"

"You can use the muskets in your hands, the bombs in your hands, to smash all the rebels to pieces!"

"What if we only have 30,000 people? In front of these immortal artifacts, the million army will definitely not be able to resist our attack! ”

"We must win, we belong to win!"

"Don't take a step back!"

"Today is the day of meritorious service, today is the day of soaring, as long as everyone can keep the palace, as long as they can defeat the rebels, everyone will be rewarded, and they will be crowned with officials!"

"A man should carry a three-foot long sword and make immortal achievements!"

"I'll kill with me later, kill hard, kill one enough, kill two to earn, kill as much as you can!"

"Even if you die, you can receive a pension, and your wife and children don't have to worry, and you can use this savings to live a happy life!"

"Later, I will stand in front of everyone, if I don't take a step back, then no one can retreat, if you want to die, everyone will die together, and everyone will make meritorious service together!"

"Only if I announce my retirement, can I retreat!"

A sonorous and powerful voice sounded in the night.

Everyone followed the voice to look at Zhao Xuanqi, looked at Zhao Xuanqi's figure, and listened to Zhao Xuanqi's story.

Many people couldn't hear the voice clearly, let alone what Zhao Xuanqi was saying, the wind was very loud, but they all knew that as long as Zhao Xuanqi didn't take a step back, then everyone couldn't retreat.

Zhao Xuanqi, a great general, is willing to stand at the forefront and stand under the banner, and fight to the death without retreating, what reason do he, the big soldiers, have to retreat?

The general does not spare his life, how can the soldier be just?!

And there are immortal appliances in hand, what are you afraid of?

Shooting directly is the same thing, dropping the bomb directly is the same thing, the enemy is also a human being, how can it be possible to resist the immortal equipment?

Heaven helps the Northern Wei Dynasty!

Everyone is sure to win!

One by one, the officers began to encourage the soldiers around them, and the soldiers encouraged each other.

Everyone's emotions were mobilized, and finally with vicious eyes, they looked in the direction of the rebels.

Everyone nervously held the muskets in their hands, stood on the city wall, and through the dug window, raised the muskets, and aimed at the road ahead.

Waiting for the arrival of the rebels, waiting for a meeting.

Zhao Xuanqi was also extremely nervous in his heart.

It's just that he buried all his nervousness and showed great confidence and calmness.

Because he knows.

One general is incompetent and kills the three armies.

As a commander-in-chief, at any moment, even in the most desperate moments, you need to show confidence and calmness in order to give confidence to all soldiers.

After all, this is only his first time on the battlefield.

Even if you know in your heart that you will win, in the final analysis, you will still be in an inexplicable trembling mood.

Thoughts began in his mind.

I started to work hard to get this plan straight.

Zhao Xuanqi's strategy this time was very simple.

He knew that with Huang Shouyi's vigilance, he would definitely not enter Chang'an City easily.

If you open the door and dedicate the city to the city, you will only make yourself into a commotion.

Therefore, only if the entire gate of Chang'an City is really given to them, let the rebels occupy the city gate, and let Huang Shouyi hold the city gate in his hands, will the rebels be willing to enter, will they be willing to enter Chang'an City, and will rush into Chang'an City desperately and come towards the palace.

At the same time, the military discipline of the rebels is very poor, once they enter the city, they will definitely divide their troops, most of the troops will come towards the palace, and a small part of the troops will plunder the people, which can be regarded as reducing the pressure on the defenders of the palace.

At least you don't have to face all the rebels at once!

However, in this way, some people are considered unlucky.

In this regard, Zhao Xuanqi had no choice, he could only sacrifice a small number of people to save most people.

He remembered what Huang Shouyi had said that day: "Sacrifice the young department."

Is it fair to divide people to protect the majority? ”

"Maybe not the fairest, but absolutely stable."

Now, in order to stabilize the chances of success in defending the city, Zhao Xuanqi can only sacrifice a small number of people.

This is a flaw in this plan, he cannot change it, and in it he also has a hidden backhand, the backhand of the rebels after the division of troops, and this backhand is extremely important......

In short, no matter what, it can be said that as long as all the rebels enter Chang'an City, then the plan will be more than half successful.

Zhao Xuanqi would lead all the defending troops to wait for them at the palace.

In front of the palace, countless fortresses and countless pillboxes have been built, on which soldiers carry muskets and bombs, which have become the first line of defense.

And behind the palace, they themselves and others, with a large number of muskets, with a large number of bombs, this is the second line of defense.

There are also soldiers riding war horses and holding spears in their hands, forming an elite cavalry battalion, which is the third line of defense, relying on strong mobility, can support back and forth, transport supplies, etc., or check the situation of the rebels, retreat, or pursue, can play a great role.

Zhao Xuanqi will encounter the rebels on the frontal battlefield here, and then defeat all the rebels unstoppably!

When the war broke out, Zhao Xuanqi's other hole card also played a role, he had already sent about 3,000 elite soldiers, quietly ambushed in the direction of the gate of Chang'an City.

As long as there is an encounter here in the palace, when the battle is halfway through, the 3,000 elite soldiers will rush out in an instant, they do not need to flank the rebels on both sides, but have a more important task, to take back the gate of Chang'an City!

In this way, when the city gate is closed, the rebels will be completely locked in the city, and they will be locked up and beaten by dogs, with no chance to escape, and it will be difficult to fly.

As long as Zhao Xuanqi can defeat the rebels in the palace, then the rebels will have no way to live!

Of course, the premise of everything is that Zhao Xuanqi can defeat the rebels, and the premise of everything is that these more than 20,000 soldiers can use muskets and gunpowder to successfully defeat hundreds of thousands of rebels on this frontal battlefield!

Otherwise, everything is empty words.

Otherwise all plans are just jokes!

No matter how strict the plan is, it also needs to be accompanied by strong strength to complete!

"It's coming, it's coming!"

Suddenly, someone came with a message.

Zhao Xuanqi nested on the wall of the palace, and when he looked up, he saw that under countless torches, dense rebels were coming towards the palace.

Some were on horseback, some on foot, with elite weapons in their hands, and their faces were hideous, like evil spirits.

There were too many of them to count, and as far as the eye could see, there were rebels everywhere, and there were rebels everywhere, so that the sound of their footsteps produced a kind of vibration, which could be felt even from a long distance.

Zhao Xuanqi said to all the officers: "Ready! ”

Following the order, one by one the heralds roamed the city walls and passed the orders to all the soldiers.

The soldiers grasped the arquebuses in their hands and slowly pointed them out of the window, aiming them at the street ahead.

And on the pillbox, there are also soldiers who pick up the bombs in their hands and hold their breath.

Everyone knows that the rebels are coming, and the big war is about to begin!
