Chapter 856 The Four Powerful Armies of Qiandu City!
Yin Jingyi listened to the old man's words without any emotional fluctuation. It was all just a matter of the victor taking all.
To the late emperor, the Xuanming Iron Guards were nothing more than a pawn with some weight, but one that could be discarded with a heavy heart.
Although he could understand the Xuanming Iron Guards' resentment towards the royal family and the pain in their hearts.
"Commander, I know how deep the resentment of the Xuanming Iron Guards runs. Therefore, I believe that the current situation is the perfect opportunity that the soldiers of the Xuanming Iron Guards have been waiting for!"
He took a deep breath and followed the old man's words.
"Very well! My Xuanming Iron Guards are willing to join forces with the Yin family to fight against the royal family."
The old man gave Yin Jingyi a deep look, sighed, and said in a deep voice.
Regardless of whether Yin Jingyi is sincere or not, as long as they can raise an army together with the Xuanming Iron Guards, even if it only diverts some of the Great Qian Dynasty's attention, that will be enough.
At least... the Xuanming Iron Guards no longer have to fight alone to the death once again.
The old man then summoned all the generals of the Xuanming Iron Guard and told them of his decision to join forces against the royal family.
Led by Yin Jingyi, the Xuanming Iron Guards stealthily made their way to a manor owned by the Yin family outside Qiandu City.
The Xuanming Iron Guards pressed in like dark clouds, their presence as imposing as mountains.
As the sun set, rows of black-armored guards marched in, their footsteps thundering, shaking the ground slightly. Even the dust in the air was intimidated by this overwhelming momentum and gave way.
The numerous Xuanming Iron Guards were all clad in dark black armor, with intricate patterns engraved on it, gleaming with a cold light, like a group of evil spirits returned from hell.
The weapons in their hands, whether spears or swords, all gleamed with a chilling light, ready to drink blood and kill their enemies at any moment.
At the very front of the procession stood the elderly man, still exuding an air of authority—Yu Jing, the commander of the Xuanming Iron Guards.
He rode a magnificent black horse, his somewhat aged figure standing tall on its back. Although time had etched its marks on his face, his eyes remained as sharp as an eagle's, like a pillar of strength, making the entire Xuanming Iron Guard even more spirited and full of fighting spirit.
The orderly ranks, as if measured with a ruler, exuded an indescribable sense of pressure, inspiring awe, whether they were moving or standing still.
The servants and guards in the manor all turned to look, their eyes filled with amazement and awe.
They had never seen such a magnificent military display. Even the elite Tiger Head Heavy Armored Battalion, which the Yin family had built up themselves, paled in comparison.
The arrival of the Xuanming Iron Guards was like an unstoppable storm, instantly making the atmosphere in the manor heavy.
At Yu Jing's command, the Xuanming Iron Guards quickly set up their formation within the manor, with tents being erected one after another.
The banners fluttered in the wind. The banners of the Xuanming Iron Guards bore the characters "Xuanming" and a long sword gleaming with cold light, as unfathomable as the underworld, proclaiming their return.
Smoke curled up from the chimneys, a stark contrast to the manor's former tranquility, for this place was about to become the eye of a storm that would overthrow the monarchy.
Standing on a high point in the manor, Yin Jingyi gazed at this breathtaking scene, his heart surging with indescribable excitement.
At this moment, the wheels of history are slowly turning toward an unknown turning point, and he is the key person who is propelling this giant ship forward.
As night fell, the manor was brightly lit. Yin Jingyi and Yu Jing sat facing each other in the main hall of the manor, a map spread out on the table, as they plotted their next move.
"Commander, among the four main combat forces guarding Qiandu, besides the Tiger Head Heavy Armored Battalion, which represents infantry and is controlled by my Yin family, there are three other powerful forces: the Phoenix Cry Shooting Battalion, which represents sharpshooters; the Changlin Imperial Guards, which represent the strongest comprehensive combat capabilities; and the Flying Cloud Valiant Cavalry Battalion, which represents cavalry."
"These four formidable forces are the last line of defense for the royal family, and also the chasm we must overcome in this operation."
Yin Jingyi first bowed respectfully, and then couldn't wait to explain the current situation to Yu Jing.
"Flying Cloud Valiant Cavalry? That name sounds impressive, but I wonder how strong they are?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Jing nodded slightly, then frowned slightly, somewhat unfamiliar with the name of this last cavalry unit. Clearly, this unit had not yet been fully formed when the Xuanming Iron Guard still existed.
But Yu Jing quickly came to terms with it. After all, the organization and names of the royal army would always change over time, and this unit might have been reorganized from one of his "old friends".
"The Flying Cloud Cavalry is a cavalry force carefully trained by the royal family. It is known for its speed and has extremely high mobility. It is a surprise force used by the royal family to deal with emergencies. Its soldiers are all battle-hardened, have superb horsemanship, and their combat power should not be underestimated."
"However, the battle at the front is now critical. The Phoenix Cry Shooting Battalion and the Changlin Imperial Guards have already gone south to support Qianyuan County. Outside the Imperial City, apart from the Tiger Head Heavy Armor Battalion, only the Flying Cloud Cavalry Battalion remains."
Upon seeing this, Yin Jingyi quickly explained.
"Commander, the situation is now extremely favorable to us."
"Among the four main combat forces guarding Qiandu, the Tiger Head Heavy Armored Battalion is already under my control, and it is our solid backing."
Yin Jingyi spoke first, his finger tracing across the map.
"Young man from the Yin family, you are indeed decisive in your actions. I have heard of the Tiger Head Heavy Armor Battalion's combat strength; it is indeed a formidable force."
Yu Jing nodded, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes.
"However, if the Flying Cloud Cavalry cannot be used by us, it will become a major threat."
Yu Jing pondered for a moment.
"That's right. Currently, the Phoenix Cry Shooting Battalion and the Changlin Imperial Guards have already headed south, leaving only the Tiger Head Heavy Armor Battalion and the Flying Cloud Cavalry Battalion outside the Imperial City."
"Our plan is that when the Tiger Head Heavy Armor Battalion launches its attack within the Imperial City, you will lead the Xuanming Iron Guard to strike swiftly, directly attacking the Flying Cloud Cavalry Battalion's camp, trapping them in a jar, annihilating or severely crippling them in one fell swoop, and cutting off the last support for the Imperial Family."
A ruthless glint flashed in Yin Jingyi's eyes.
"This method is feasible. Although the Flying Cloud Cavalry can serve as the cavalry to protect the dynasty, they are probably no ordinary people. However, if they are unprepared, they will find it difficult to withstand the surprise attack of my Xuanming Iron Guard."
Upon hearing this, a sharp glint flashed in Yu Jing's eyes.
"Rest assured, Commander, I have arranged everything."
"The Tiger Head Heavy Armor Battalion will serve as the vanguard. Once chaos breaks out in the city, it will immediately attract the court's attention, buying you time. You only need to deliver a fatal blow to the Flying Cloud Cavalry Battalion at the crucial moment."
Yin Jingyi was full of confidence.
The two found themselves getting along better and better as they talked, and their plan gradually improved. Looking at the young man in front of him, Yu Jing couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration.
Although Yin Jingyi is young, his courage and wisdom are extraordinary, and given time, he will surely achieve great things.
