Chapter 257: The Battle of the Four Armies (3) Mysterious Leader
Yelon never dreamed that he would devote most of his life to the cause of destroying the aristocracy, and he never thought that he would have the opportunity to be the leader of the aristocracy...
Since Daminsky became the leader of the neighbors, Daminsky no longer sneaked around, and chose to become the nominal leader of the nobility, and began to gather a large army in the Aoba Fortress, preparing to fight Groyev and regain the family territory.
At the same time as everyone arranged the troops, the cavalry troops sent by the pump also arrived near Aoba Castle, although Yelon temporarily lost his whereabouts, but the pump firmly believed that Yelon was still near the Aoba Fortress, and the pump asked the troops to cooperate with the Snow Country to fight and help the Snow Country solve the current trouble, and search for Yeron by the way.
With the help of the generals of the Crescent Country, Groyev felt that the courage on his shoulders became much easier, the generals of the Crescent Country were not only capable but also the cavalry from the Crescent Country were all experienced and very brave in battle, under the command of the generals of the Crescent Country, Groyev's army began to gradually gain the upper hand.
Yelon didn't care about the successive defeats of the Aoba Alliance, after all, the cavalry units of the Noble Alliance wanted to be weak, and they wanted to fight against the troops of the Crescent Country at present, and they didn't have that strength.
And the repeated defeats in the war put Daminsky's position at risk, and the nobles began to panic, fearing that they would not be able to defeat Groyev.
Daminsky could only plead with Yelon many times, hoping that Yelon would find a way to deal with the cavalry of the Crescent Country.
Yelon had no choice but to agree to Daminsky's request and prepare to set up an ambush to deal with the cavalry troops.
Yelon chose the battlefield on the edge of a forest, set traps in various parts of the forest, arranged crossbowmen, and asked the noble coalition to send out a relatively elite force to fight outside the forest.
A few years later, Groyev led an army of 80,000 to attack the Aoba coalition army.
The cavalry of the Crescent Kingdom rushed to the front and quickly defeated the coalition of nobles with a devastating force, and Groev ordered the cavalry to pursue, and the army slowly advanced.
The Aoba coalition fled into the forest, followed by the cavalry of the Crescent Country, and after entering the woods, the cavalry unit was relatively smooth at first, but after pursuing it for a certain distance, it encountered a trap set by Yelon.
"Oh no! There's a trap! Everyone's stop moving forward for the time being!"
Before the generals of the Crescent Moon Kingdom could arrange the retreat order, the crossbowmen in ambush in the forest began to shoot at the cavalry, and some pikemen who were ambushed in the leaves suddenly came out of the dead leaves and slammed towards the cavalry!
Groyev's troops marched slowly, giving Yelon's troops plenty of time to ambush, and by the time Groyev's army rushed into the woods, Yelon had already retreated, and most of the Crescent cavalry had lost most of their troops.
"Lord Groyev, do you know the name of the other party's commander of the army? I always feel that the other side's methods of fighting are a little special!"
"Hmph, isn't it just a down-and-out kid of the Jin family back then? Isn't that the army of the Crescent Moon Kingdom just like that?"
"Lord Groyev, this is a matter of your intelligence, if the intelligence is accurate, we will not rush so lightly, and we are not familiar with the terrain here, it will take a while to familiarize ourselves with the terrain... ”
"Do the people of the Crescent Moon Kingdom like to make excuses so much? I really don't know how the Crescent King was laid down back then... ”
"General Groyev, if you do this again, we will camp alone, and after that, we will not continue to intervene unless there is a special need. ”
"Whatever you want, please do whatever you want... ”
The Crescent cavalry began to camp alone.
Yelon noticed that after the battle, it seemed that the opposing forces had separated, which was a good opportunity.
Yelon prepares to attack the Crescent Nation cavalry camp at night.
On the other side, Groyev organized an elite heavy armored regiment of 3,000 men to guard in a col not far from the cavalry camp of the Crescent Country.
"General, can your governor's strategy be good? No one has come for so many years... ”
"It doesn't matter if he is good or not, anyway, the Governor will give us enough salaries no matter what, as for other things, I don't have to worry about it, it's better not to come, let's go and work hard!"
In the night, Yelon led the elite troops to slowly approach... Looking at the large camp in front of him, Yelon was worried, attacking the Crescent Army is different from other armies, the Crescent Army generally distributes a large number of scouts around the army, even at night, there are scouts moving around the army, if the attack fails, then it will be pursued by the cavalry troops, and it will become very passive!
"Chief, when are we going to attack it?"
"Don't worry, let's observe and observe! Look at the col over there... It looks a little blurry... It's like the smoke after the fireworks have been born in vain... The army retreated for the time being, and sent spies to take a look in the col!"
At night, the army in the col did not notice anyone approaching, and the spies saw the movement in the col and hurried to report back to Yeron.
"Great chief, there is a situation! There are troops in the col!"
"Well,,, I actually want to make a trick! It's kind of interesting! It seems that this Groyev is not exactly a piece of waste!"
"Great Chief, what should we do now?
"The army is moving in the direction of the mountain col, let's take advantage of the night when the other party is tired to attack at night, since the other party can't even find our spies, and the other party's generals are very incompetent, then it is much easier to eat the enemy in the mountain col than to eat the cavalry of the Crescent Country!
Sure enough, the troops in the col fell asleep in the middle of the night, and Yelon had no trouble killing them.
"Great Chief, you are really clever! These pigs are sleeping so well that they can't even wake up... ”
"Don't be complacent, our real opponent is the cavalry of the Crescent Country, now everyone change into the clothes of the Groyev army, and wait for us to go to the deception camp!"
"Big Chief! It's so exciting! I didn't expect us to be able to play like this!"
"Hmph, you monkey cubs, there are a lot of fun things to do with me! Don't act like you haven't seen the world... ”
After changing into the uniform of Groyev's army, Yelon led his army to the Crescent Cavalry Battalion.
"Stop!, what are you doing?"
"Please report to your general, we were sent by General Groyev, for the previous matter, my general would like to ask your general to continue to unite against the Aoba coalition army!"
"Okay, you wait, I'll report it!"
After a while, the general of the Crescent Moon cavalry opened the camp gate and let Yelon and other general-level people come in first, what he didn't expect happened, Yelon suddenly ordered the troops to launch a fierce attack, even if the army of the Crescent Moon Country was strong in combat, they retreated unprepared.
Except for a small number of brave cavalry who fled, everyone, including the general of the Crescent Cavalry, was killed by the Yelon army.
"Great Chief! Send more than 1,000 people!"
"Run, run, now hurry up and collect the horses and weapons, quickly retreat, prevent being surrounded by places, and go!"
After the light was bright, when Groev rushed to his aid after receiving the news that the two armies had been defeated, all he saw was corpses all over the ground...
"It's too much! The Aoba coalition has gone too far! Even the soldiers' clothes have been pulled off... ”
"You have forgotten, Lord Doge, that many of them are thieves... ”
"The army of the New Moon Kingdom is strong, and now I know that they are so cowardly... Hmph! Bai made me so excited, thinking that the army of the Crescent Moon Country was coming, and it would be able to defeat the Aoba coalition in one fell swoop... It seems that you have to rely on yourself... ”
Despite the temporary victory, Yelon was not too optimistic, and Yelon continued to stock up on food and grass supplies, and let the rear continue to build and improve the fortress at Copperridge Mountain.
Due to the abundance of supplies provided to Yelon, the fortress was built quickly, and walls and arrow towers had been built at critical points, and the outer defenses had been almost completed.
Yelon received 50 giant crossbows in several major battles, and all of them were transported back to Copperridge Mountain.
"Great Chief, we are now the guests of honor of the nobles, and when the time comes, it will be good for us to live in Aoba Fortress, why do we need to prepare so many supplies?"
"Monkey cub, no heart! Why do you see that the nobles will be polite to the thieves, they can use us at this time, so be polite, and when you can't use us, it's enough to cut us without a knife! Don't believe in the nobles too much, otherwise you will suffer a big loss in the future!"
"Great Chief, how do you know so much about the nobility? Listen to those old men, you wore noble clothes when you came to Tongji Mountain before... ”
"Monkey cub, when did you become so gossipy? I robbed it! Do you know?"
Yelon's cooking obviously made everyone feel that something was abnormal, could it be that the Aoba coalition would fail? Why did the big boss always throw things up the mountain? Could it be that the big boss liked to live in the mountains?
After learning that the cavalry of the Crescent Moon Kingdom was defeated by Yelon, Daminsky was very happy and asked Yelon if he could attack the Ground Crack Fortress now? Now the morale of the Aoba Alliance Army is gradually recovering, and they are clamoring to attack the Earth Crack Fortress.
Yelon knew in his heart that the nobles would consume a lot of money and food, and if they couldn't capture the Crack Fortress in a short period of time, the enthusiasm of the nobles would be reduced, but with this group of wastes now, it was like taking the Crack Fortress a bit wishful thinking.
"Daminsky, if we raise an army to attack the Ground Crack Fortress during this time, we may suffer heavy losses, and I am afraid that many people will die... ”
"It doesn't matter, if the soldiers who fought for us are still alive after the battle, then we will have to pay them a huge amount! If they die, our financial pressure will be gone! What a good thing! I still wish they were dead! Not to mention that those are not soldiers of my family, it doesn't matter if they die or not!"
"Okay, since I have your words, I will be relieved, then we will send troops tomorrow to attack the Earth Crack Fortress!"
"Okay! I'll wait for this when I leave! When I take the fortress, I'll open the family treasury and thank you for your credit!"
Yeron's heart, you have just shown your heart, I wish that all the people who worked for you are dead, and now you have to reward me well, you and I are a fool??? I am afraid that the one who captured the Crack Fortress will be when you get rid of me...
A few years later, the Aoba coalition army set out to attack the Linxi Fortress.
Groyev also led all the opposing forces and prepared for a decisive battle with the Aoba coalition forces.
After the two armies met, the two sides couldn't wait to start a decisive battle, and Yelon did not lead his army to join the battle group, but looked intently at a hill.
"Great Chief, where are you looking?"
"Daminsky, you send 3 thousand to occupy that hill!"
"Great chief, but there is nothing there, there is no point in occupying there!"
"Daminsky, believe me, there will definitely be surprises there!"
When Daminsky sent 3,000 men to the hills, suddenly a large number of crossbowmen appeared from behind the hills. Put Daminsky's 3 thousand people at range through the sieve.
"Great Chief, there is an ambush on ??? hill"
"If we follow the progress of our army, we will attack the hills around noon, and then the tired army will be attacked by crossbowmen, and the forward troops will all be wiped out!"
"Great Chief, what now?"
"Send out cavalry and forcibly attack the crossbow position, as long as the crossbow position is captured, then our long-range troops will be able to dominate the victory!"
"Great leader, but the hills are full of crossbowmen, and they can't be attacked!"
"Daminsky, haven't we captured a lot of heavy armor? If you can assign this heavy armor to me and allow me to dispose of it privately after I use it, I will help you get rid of the crossbowman positions on the hills!"
"Big Chief, then I'll leave it to you!"
Daminsky's heart blossomed with joy! Isn't it just heavy armor? It's all for you! Wait a minute, see how you die!
Yelon understands the calculation in Daminsky's heart, this son is obviously a stupid person who doesn't know how to break such a simple crossbow position, but for the sake of this batch of heavy armor, it's time to show Daminsky!
Yelon ordered his men to wear heavy armor, no one to wear the spears used by the Crescent cavalry, and then covered their horses with heavy armor.
Daminsky was also a little knowledgeable,,, he actually recognized the heavy cavalry at this time...
With a wave of his hand, Yelon led 1,000 heavily armored cavalry towards the crossbow position.
As the army rushed to the bottom of the hill, a rain of arrows fell, but Groyev's crossbow arrows were not powerful enough to pierce the heavy armor, and Yelon's heavy cavalry rushed up the hill against the rain of arrows, destroyed the crossbowmen's position, and returned to their positions.
The corners of Groyev's mouth, who were watching the battle from afar, twitched! When did the Aoba coalition have a well-trained heavy cavalry? This one was unexpected, and the ambush soldiers that he had carefully arranged were killed like this?
The two armies continued to fight, and by noon, the Aoba coalition forces, with crossbowmen in support, had the upper hand and began to suppress Groyev's forces.
"Lord Governor, it's not good, our troops have been suppressed by the other side, or should we retreat?"
"Okay, retreat first! If the other side sends out heavy cavalry again, our army is in danger of collapsing, retreat!"
Daminsky was very happy to see the other side withdrawing, in today's big battle, both sides lost about 30,000 people, but Groyev's troops have no crossbowmen, and if Ming continues to fight, Groyev's troops will collapse sooner or later!
After this stop, Yelon was gradually noticed, where did this mysterious thief leader come from, how could he be so brave, and he was able to train such an army! Everyone began to respect Yelon, and began to inquire about Yelon's past...
