Afterwards, Yu Desheng stepped forward, cut open Wu Ziqi's forehead, and poured mercury into it. Afterwards, the stinging pain and unbearable itching made Wu Ziqi roll on the ground.
His body was tied up and he couldn't scratch with his hands, which made him feel even more excruciating pain. The mercury kept flowing down, breaking his skin inch by inch.
"Li Taishou! From now on, abandon Jingmen Pass and lead all your soldiers to attack Tiefeng City of Chu. This prince will not care what method you use, you must capture it within one day!"
Qin Yu said in a deep voice.
Tiefeng City is the important military office that Wu Ziqi just mentioned. There are 30,000 elite cavalry in it. With the ability of Li Taishou, if he attacks them by surprise, he can take it!
He was going to attack Pegasus City, where 70,000 elite soldiers of the Chu State were stationed. As long as they could capture it, the Chu State would lose all its troops.
Governor Li immediately led his troops to set off, while Wu Ziqi was still twisting and twitching on the ground. Qin Yu was too lazy to even look at him, so he got on the carriage and followed the Red Flame Cavalry towards the State of Chu.
In one day, the Red Flame Cavalry arrived at Pegasus City of Chu State!
The walls of Pegasus City are tall, at least thirty meters high, and house the most powerful defensive offensive in the entire Chu State. With a garrison of seventy thousand people, it would be difficult to capture it even with three hundred thousand people.
"Your Highness! According to Daliang intelligence, Pegasus City is a key military city of the Chu State, firmly protecting the Chu Imperial City. If Daliang wants to attack the Chu Imperial City, Pegasus City is a must-pass barrier!"
"However, this Pegasus City is far more difficult than what was recorded in the intelligence!"
Yu Wenqing said in a deep voice.
"The city walls are tall and the defenses are strong. It's indeed difficult to break through. However, if we catch them off guard, it will be much easier!"
Qin Yu said in a deep voice.
"how to spell?"
Yuwen Chengqing asked.
"You put on women's clothes, carry two explosive packs, and pretend to enter the city. Then, ignite them at the city gate and destroy it. I will immediately lead the Red Flame Cavalry into the city!"
"By then, no matter how strict their defenses are, they will be useless in front of the Scarlet Flame Cavalry!"
Qin Yu said coldly.
Yu Wenqing gave Qin Yu a cold look, but still did as Qin Yu asked, because she was Qin Yu's person.
Afterwards, Yuwen Chengqing changed into women's clothes and walked towards the city gate. Because she was a woman, she passed the inspection smoothly. Then, while the enemy troops guarding the city were not paying attention, she ignited the explosives and blew up the city gate.
Qin Yu immediately ordered a charge, and the soldiers of the Red Flame Iron Cavalry quickly rushed towards Pegasus City. The defenders of Pegasus City responded quickly and shot arrows from the city walls.
The Red Flame Cavalry also carried shields, which they used to block the enemy and successfully rushed into Pegasus City. Next, they used explosive packs to quickly destroy it.
Although the soldiers of Pegasus City are all elite, they have been defending the city for a long time and there has been no war in more than ten years, and no one has ever entered the city.
Faced with such a situation, they were at a loss. Just as they formed a siege, they were blown away by several explosive packs and fled in all directions.
Qin Yu fought this battle very easily, so easily that he didn't even have to enter the city!
"Your Highness! Why did you order the charge but not go in yourself?"
Yu Desheng stood beside Qin Yu, looking at the city gate in the distance, and asked in a deep voice.
"Do you think it's appropriate for a handsome man like me to rush in in a carriage?"
Qin Yu rolled his eyes at Yu Desheng and asked back.
He decided to practice riding horses as soon as he returned. After all, he was a rebel, and if he didn't know how to ride a horse, how could he lead his troops back?
"It's almost time. Let's enter the city. Pegasus City is a key military city of the Chu State. The noble families in the city will definitely be difficult to deal with. This prince wants to meet them properly."
Qin Yu said coldly.
Afterwards, he took Yu Desheng and walked towards Pegasus City. At this time, the battle in Pegasus City was basically over. The remaining Pegasus City soldiers were less than 3,000 people, and they were surrounded by the Red Flame Iron Cavalry!
