However, survival was still important, and after collecting the remnants of the longbow cavalry, Alan chose the east, which seemed to be the most densely populated, and launched a final charge, most of which were men dressed as Han soldiers, including cavalry and infantry, but the attacking enthusiasm was obviously inferior to that of their companions.

This time he was blinded by him, the Han army in the east is actually the Western Regions coalition army that has changed its clothes, so there will be cavalry and infantry.

The clothes were changed, but the sophisticated weapons were not exchanged for them, and the Western Regions Alliance Army only had a few pitiful crossbows, how could the Western Regions Alliance Army without firearms stop the Kangju elite who began to fight hard, not to mention that they did not have the strong will of the Han Army.

In the end, Prince Alan still opened a breakthrough from the Western Regions Alliance, and commanded his subordinates to break through from there.

After all, the Han army suffered a loss of few people and failed to completely annihilate the Kangju army, but it still suffered a heavy blow in the end.

In particular, the most elite longbow cavalry of the Kangju people, with 7,000 casualties from 10,000 people, and nearly 20,000 casualties among other ordinary cavalry.

Prince Alain's 50,000 men suffered more than 30,000 casualties, and he fled back to Samarkand in panic and closed his doors.

He sent a messenger to report to his father, and the king of Kangju, who was far away in the city of Khotan, received an urgent letter, in addition to scolding his son's incompetence, but also in awe of the strength of the Han army.

Prince Alain's ability, as a father, is very clear, otherwise he would not have handed over half of the country's army to his command.

Being able to defeat the 50,000 Kangju army in one battle, the Han army from afar is really strong, and even the army of the Kushan Empire, which has suppressed the Kangju country for many years, cannot easily do this.

In addition to asking for reinforcements, Prince Alain also mentioned that the main reason for the defeat was that the Han army was equipped with two mysterious weapons that could explode, smoke and fire.

King Kangju asked many well-informed Kangju merchants, but they did not get accurate answers.

Only one merchant who had traveled to Chang'an along the Silk Road said that he had caught a Han festival in Chang'an, and the Han emperor ordered people to set off fireworks to help the fun.

The phenomenon of fireworks is somewhat similar to this description, and I heard that it seems to be made of gunpowder!

But if you ask about the specific things, you don't know, I heard that gunpowder is a key secret thing in the Han Dynasty.

Prince Alain also reported that the Han Chinese army was also armed with a large number of crossbows, which had the same range and speed as the longbow.

The creative ability of the Han people is really terrible, no matter what, the reinforcements should still be sent, he is collecting reinforcements on the one hand, and on the other hand, he sent someone to inform the Shan Yu of the Northern Huns, hehe, the Han people are chasing after them again, you look at it!

King Kangju issued a national mobilization order, and all men of appropriate age were to be conscripted into the army.

His prime minister suggested that he be equipped with a large shield to defend against crossbows and mystical weapons, as the thickness of the shield could withstand many things, and it should be useful.

The Han army succeeded in eliminating more than 30,000 elites of Kangju, especially the most elite longbow cavalry, and their morale was high.

Even the morale of the Western Regions Coalition Army has risen, and the orders of the Han people are even more submissive and respectful.

Zhang Yang's Sixth Division and Guan Hai's Seventh Cavalry Division finally arrived one after another, and the Central Army of the five divisions gathered together, which was a very powerful force.

Except for the Battle of Tiger Prison Pass, I am afraid that so many people have not gathered together.

Fa Zheng commanded the expeditionary army to enter the city of Samarkand, the tall and majestic city walls, the shape of the houses that are completely different from the Central Plains, the castle made of huge stones, and the scars on the outer walls, all telling people about their glory and the past they have seen.

In addition to the second wave of Han reinforcements, there were also 50,000 reinforcements from the second wave of reinforcements recruited from other Western Regions countries.

In this way, the Han army plus the Western Regions Alliance army also reached 150,000 people, and the Kangju army in the city was less than 30,000.

Although all the men of the right age were mobilized and recruited, Prince Alain was still apprehensive.

The mysterious weapons of the Han people are so powerful that I only hope that the reinforcements of my father will arrive as soon as possible, and there will be a way to deal with the mysterious weapons of the Han people.

The conclusion of Fa Zheng and others was to besiege but not attack, waiting for the arrival of reinforcements from Kang Juguo, and the trick of encircling and sending reinforcements was tried and tested.

The waiting time was not too long, and after about half a month, King Kangju left the eldest prince to supervise the country and guard the capital.

He himself drove the expedition himself, leading the collected 150,000 troops to the south, accompanied by the 50,000 cavalry sent by the Northern Xiongnu Shan Yu.

The leader of the Huns is their Zuo Xian King, of course, this Zuo Xian King is not the one who fought with Lu Bu back then, and now this is his son.

After moving westward, Shan Yubu and Zuo Xianwang have merged together, plus the raids, plunders and plunders of Jiankun, Xiancai, Yanguo, Kangju and other countries over the years, and continuous annexation, and finally recovered a trace of vitality.

I heard that the Han people actually hit the Dawan Kingdom again, and Shan Yu and King Zuo Xian were like seeing ghosts.

Why are Han Chinese so annoying? It's like a fly, and it's still followed by the ass!

This time, their intention to send 50,000 troops was very simple, with the help of the army of the most powerful Kangju country in Central Asia, to see if they could compete with the Han Chinese, if they still couldn't fight, then they had to move again.

The combined forces of Kangju and the Northern Xiongnu were huge, with an army of 200,000 cavalry and a vast army of dozens of miles.

The scouts of the Central Army naturally discovered it fifty miles away, and immediately reported back to Lord Fazheng.

Fa Zheng and the others began to arrange according to the previous plan, first setting up a formation twenty miles away from the city to intercept, and leaving a cavalry division behind the army to monitor the movement in the city.

The intention of the Han army is also very clear, if it can fight in the field, it will never attack the city.

The Han army and Kangju's reinforcements met on the great plain outside the city, and the two sides lined up in formation, corresponding to each other from afar.

Kangju's army was on the left and middle of the coalition army, with the Huns on the right.

The backbone of the Kangju army was 20,000 longbow cavalry and 20,000 hoplites, which was the only infantry in the Kangju country.

The Kangju heavy infantry has always been used to defend the capital, and they are all equipped with large wooden shields that are half a human high, which can be supported on the ground to form a shield wall.

The Han army was also arranged into a three-way phalanx column, with the 3rd Cavalry Division on the left road, the 6th Division and the Special Operations Division on the middle road, and the 7th Cavalry Division on the right road, and each column was equipped with 20,000 Western Regions Coalition troops as a supplement.

After the two sides set up positions, neither of them took the initiative to attack, and the Han army was a consistent late strike.

Besides, the artillery positions cannot be changed at once, and they were finally leveled out.

The Kangju army couldn't figure out the reality of the Han army, the number of people on both sides was about the same, and their own side only had a slight advantage.

It was even more impossible for the Huns to take the initiative to jump out, and the two sides were at a stalemate.

Prince Alain watched from the high ground of the city for a long time, and did not see the two sides fighting, but in his heart was countless grass and mud horses galloping past.

In the end, King Kangju couldn't hold his breath and sent 10,000 people to attack the right side of the Han army, after all, he was here to reinforce, and the defenders in the city were all watching it!
