Chapter 1289: Battle of the Extreme East City
"Facing ~~"
The Dawan people also issued an attack order, and with the whispering and low sound of horns, thousands of Dawan warriors drew their bows and arrows and shouted to meet them.
The Dawan generals had already discovered that it was not the Kangju people who rashly intruded into their territory, but a group of rabble who did not know each other at all, with various banners of uneven heights and lows, and the totem patterns of various beasts were also painted with peach charms on them, and millions of cattle, horses, and livestock were driven by men, women, and children, and there were only about 20,000 warriors like beggars.
In the face of such a group of Dayue clansmen, the commander of the Dawan Kingdom was contemptuous and commanded half of the army to meet the enemy.
In most wars, the biggest reason for defeat is because of the underestimation of the enemy.
As a farming nation, although Dawan's armor and equipment are better than those of Kangju and Dayue, and the war horses are also better, but in the face of the Dayue clan, who have already killed the red-eyed people and almost fought against the water, they collapsed at the moment when the armies of the two sides came into contact.
The ragged, black, and dirty Otsuki clan roared like mad dogs, and they were all able to stand up and calmly stretch their bows and arrows during the charge, while most of the Dawan people were still riding on their bare horses, so the unequal strength was decided the moment the two horses collided together.
In the stump and broken arm and the terrible scream, the Dawan people quickly collapsed in no more than two moments of contact, and then cried and shouted to the mother and turned to flee, under the impact of the deserters, the Dawan formation simply could not hold its feet and began to be chaotic, and the king of Nantu saw such a situation, naturally refused to let go of this opportunity, and ordered the army to attack, under the attack of the 20,000 Yue's army, the Dawan army was directly like the sand bank on the beach was submerged and destroyed, more than 10,000 people cried and shouted for their mothers to flee in all directions, under the tailgating and killing of the Yue's people, Leaving behind thousands of corpses, he fled.
"Continue the pursuit and break through the Dawan King City~"
In the face of such an easy victory and such a vegetable opponent, not only Bi Kun was excited, but all the clan leaders and warriors were all desperate to roar and kill, but the Dawan war horse with sweat and blood BMW blood was indeed much stronger than the war horse of the Yue clan, and was quickly thrown away two or three miles away after the chase, and when Bi Kun led 20,000 people to chase and kill to the Dawan Wang City, the Wang Cheng had gathered tens of thousands of troops in a panic, and the city gate was closed and guarded by the city, blocking the murderous Dayue clan people from outside the city.
Dawan was originally a Sai people, the same species as the tribes of the Western Regions, and was originally a race from the Western Regions that crossed the Pamir Plateau.
Later, it was found that the climate of this basin was warm and the water and grass were abundant, so they stayed and slowly entered the era of farming, plus there were excellent war horses such as sweat and blood, so although the number of people in Dawan was small, the combat effectiveness was still quite good.
In addition, Dawan is still a single-ethnic country, the king's ruling power is very strong, so it is also an influential country in this region, and Daxia Kangju is evenly matched, and Dawan people are good at business, and there are a large number of merchants who cross the green mountains all year round to trade between the countries of the Western Regions and the Western Poison Rest and other countries, so the Dawan people live a rich and prosperous business, and are considered a relatively peace-loving country.
And Dawan's capital is also very distinctive, belongs to the western kind of castle-like architecture, and also has a very long history, when Alexander attacked the east to the vicinity of Dawan after seeing the east rolling snow mountain plateau that can not be crossed at all, he thought that this is already the far east, so a large number of prisoners of war built a big city here, named Alexander Castle in the far east, to commemorate that he has captured the end of the eastern world, just like Sun Wukong peeing under the Wuzhi Mountain to make a mark, it is the same as showing off.
If he had a world map in his hand at that time, according to his urine nature, he would definitely not give up attacking the Central Plains so easily.
However, because of the lack of adaptation to the water and soil, Alexander the Great fell ill and could not be cured soon after the city was repaired, and his subordinates had to take him back to the motherland, but he hung up before he could return home, and as a result, the huge Alexander Empire fell apart in an instant, and the Dawan people quickly occupied the castle and set it as the capital.
This castle is made of stone, tall and sturdy, at this time the city gate is closed, the city wall is densely packed with soldiers with bows and arrows, the two sides face off again, the king of Dawan and the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty are standing on the city wall, looking at the city like a group of beggars of the Dayue clan warriors, one by one full of bewilderment and overwhelmed.
They have lived in this place for hundreds of years, and they have never seen such a chaotic group of races, there seem to be the Sai people of the Western Regions, it seems that there are also Kangju people, and the rest of them are also dressed in all kinds of clothes, wearing crowns, hats, bald heads, and disheveled heads......
"Knock down this city, and this good place will be our Otsutsuki clan in the future!" The king of Nantu rode on a bloody horse, pointed his horsewhip at the head of the city and yelled.
"Kill~Kill~Kill~"
The 20,000 Yue's warriors shouted at their weapons in a mess, and then began to besiege the city on all sides, while the soldiers on the city wall also shouted and continued to counterattack, arrows on both sides flew like rain, and the screams of the Yue's soldiers who fell from their horses with arrows fell from their horses under the city and the soldiers who fell from arrows at the head of the city.
"Do you look at the horse that the other leader is riding?"
On the tower of the city, King Dawan condescended to see clearly, and the mount of King Tunan under the wolf skin was obviously a sweaty horse produced by their Dawan.
"Hey, the king is right, this horse seems to be one of the envoys brought to the capital of the Great Qin Emperor last year, these horses were originally selected from the king's imperial horses, so this horse minister still remembers ......very clearly," a minister next to him said in surprise.
"These people are not from Great Qin, maybe it was the envoy who attacked us who robbed the BMW that should have been sent to Great Qin Xianyang, if so, wouldn't the envoys and caravan we sent already dead!" Another minister speculated.
King Dawan clenched his fists and his face instantly turned hideous, and he slammed his fist on the city wall and said: "Damn, if that's the case, wouldn't we have broken the trust of the Great Qin Mission, if they return to Great Qin to tell us that Dawan does not intend to exchange envoys for friendly trade with them, the Great Qin Emperor will inevitably order the army stationed in the Western Regions to attack us!" ”
"What then?" There was a commotion on the city walls, and countless ministers panicked.
Dawan has long known that Daqin has an elite of 10,000 people stationed in Shule on the east side of the plateau, which is only a few hundred miles away from Dawan, but because the snow-capped mountain plateau is difficult to cross, it is not suitable for the army to fight, so the Daqin people have also been standing still, according to the Dawan merchants who come and go to the Western Regions and the Western Regions The countries of the Western Regions said that the Daqin army is as invincible as a tiger and wolf, and the king of Dawan also arranged for Xizuo to pretend to be a caravan to go to the Daqin military camp to investigate, and even bought back hundreds of pieces of enamel equipment, according to the detailed return, The Great Qin soldiers were strong, strong, sharp, and well-trained, and they were absolutely invincible.
Because I have seen Li Shun's mission, I have been rewarded by the Emperor of Daqin with silk, porcelain, glass, tea and other items, and I have also heard Hu merchants from the Western Regions who have been to Daqin say that Daqin is a paradise on earth, and the goods are luxurious and dazzling, and there is nothing lacking.
However, judging from the current situation, it seems that the mission and caravan sent by him have been robbed by this chaotic group of tribes in front of him.
"King, a few days ago, there were a few merchants from the Western Regions who were in the city, why don't you invite them to ask, maybe they know these guys!" A minister reminded.
"Yes, yes, get up and find the merchants of the Western Regions!" King Dawan came to his senses and hurriedly ordered, and soon a soldier rushed down the tower, and it didn't take long for him to take three Hu merchants from the Western Regions to the city tower, and the three Hu merchants quickly recognized the enemy under the city in such a chaotic battle.
"Great King, these are the traitors of the Yue Clan, who fled into the desert north of the Tianshan Mountains after being expelled from the Yue Clan by Great Qin, the one in the middle who rode a chestnut BMW was Bi Kun, the king of Tunan, and the one next to him was even worse, I heard that it was the eldest prince of the Xiongnu State, Mao Dun, who was also chased and killed by Great Qin and fled into the Western Regions, these guys often robbed and killed many merchants and tribes in our Western Regions......"
"King, what should I do, do you want to go out of the city and fight them?" The ministers were a little undecided.
"The king must not go to war, it seems that the traitors and Huns have been driven out by Great Qin these months, and those cattle, sheep, livestock and clansmen in the distance must have migrated thousands of miles with them, our city is strong, and they will not last long before they retreat!" A Hu merchant from the Western Regions hurriedly persuaded him.
"Yes, these people are barbaric and ferocious, if the city is breached, they will kill all the men, rob all the women and goods, the king must not go to war, and they will naturally retreat in a few days!" Another Hu merchant from the Western Regions also hurriedly chimed in.
Most of the tribes in the Western Regions are semi-agricultural people like Dawan, and they know the urine nature of these nomads, so under the persuasion of the three Western Regions Hu Shang, the king of Dawan ordered to defend the city, no matter how the Dayue people under the city attack and provoke, they will not fight, and both sides can only attack each other with bows and arrows, although there are casualties, but it is not big.
Five days passed, and while besieging the Extreme East City, the Da Yue clan also sent people to loot the nearby Dawan villages and towns from all sides, gathering together a large number of looted people and goods, and also set up simple tents to surround the entire castle.
Seeing these Yueshi people in the city slaughtering cattle and sheep to eat meat and singing every day, and insulting the snatched Dawan women in public, the Dawan soldiers in the city were all angry, and the king of Dawan issued an order to recruit more soldiers, ready to go out of the city and fight with the Dayue people.
And the king of Nantu under the city is also depressed, now the weather is getting hotter and hotter, millions of cattle and tens of thousands of tribesmen can only live together because they can't stay away, feces accumulate mosquitoes are raging, a large number of tribesmen begin to get sick, and if the big city made of huge stones in front of them cannot be broken in a short time, they can only temporarily abandon this basin with abundant water and grass to find another place to live.
"Pass the order down, besiege for two more days, and if you can't break the city, continue to move south!" Tu Nan Wang thought about it and had to give the final order.
