Chapter 138: Reversal of the Situation
At this time, Tara was calm as water on the surface, but her heart was already turbulent, and there was an indescribable excitement.
The king of Donghu ordered him to have full authority to solve the crisis of Donghu, whether it was Uncle Borshu in the west, or Emperor Yan in the east who went deep into the grassland, which meant that he came into contact with the core power of Donghu for the first time and obtained the command of 500,000 iron cavalry in the Donghu royal court.
Ten years, a whole ten years, from the moment he left the royal court, he suspected that when Antilla was in power, he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to return to Dragon City.
However, the development of things was too wonderful, and the seventh brother Tara, whom he had high hopes for, died tragically, but he was temporarily transferred back to Longcheng, and before returning, he was sent to the front, and now, after difficulties and dangers, he has obtained most of the military power in Donghu.
This means that in this battle, if he has a good plan, quells the Borshu rebellion, eliminates Emperor Yan, and the throne of King Donghu, it will be in his pocket.
The supreme power came so suddenly, which he couldn't have imagined before, and he was a little caught off guard.
Suppressing the joy in his heart, Ta Mu said sincerely to Antila: "Father, rest assured, the son will never live up to his father's expectations, and will do his best to deal with the affairs of Donghu." Antila saw a hint of joy in Ta Mu's eyes, but she only waved her hand and motioned for Ta Mu to leave.
After Tara was killed, Borshu became the king, Antila figured out that he was old after all, and the throne of Donghu should have been determined as soon as possible, otherwise he would not have discovered two tragic things.
Among the seven sons, he loves the seventh son Tara, not only because Tara was born to his beloved wife, but more importantly, Tara's personality is very similar to him, he is methodical, he has literacy and talent, and he has a unique insight into the expansion of Donghu, and he is the best candidate for the throne.
The six sons under his knees, the eldest Tallinn has outstanding martial arts, but he is simple-minded, has the courage of a horseman, has no talent for governing the country, and because his mother is from a humble background, he can't tolerate Tamu and other six brothers in his eyes, Antila knows in his heart that once he drives the crane west, Tallinn will definitely purge the five brothers.
Therefore, even though there is a high voice in Donghu about Tallinn inheriting the throne of Donghu, Antillah has never had the idea of letting Tallinn inherit the throne, once Tallinn inherits the throne, the six brothers will have a gap in their hearts, and Donghu will fall apart in an instant, or there will be internal friction in the fierce battles of various tribes.
The remaining five sons, the second Ta Mu and the fifth Ta Feng are the most qualified to inherit the throne, Ta Mu is virtuous, generous, and kind, when Tara was alive before, and Ta Feng were extremely supportive of Tara.
Moreover, among the five sons, in terms of the size of the tribe, the Tamu and Tafeng tribes are very large, surpassing the remaining three brothers, which shows that these two people are extraordinary.
And the five brothers, because Ta Mu is kind and kind, and the second prince, have an excellent relationship with each other, especially with the most intimate relationship with Ta Feng, who is a fellow mother, Ta Feng is known as the second Borshu, not only in force, but also in the art of war attainments are extremely high, once Ta Mu ascends the throne of Donghu, with Ta Feng assisted, Donghu can not be chaotic.
This is one of the reasons why Antila began to gradually delegate power and cultivate Tamu.
Five days later, Wenhui Mountain, in the west of the Hunhe River, is the only way for the grassland to enter Hunhe County, Wenhui Mountain is not big or big, it is still a little small, or it seems more appropriate to call it a mountain bag.
At the foot of the mountain, an army of more than 50,000 cavalry was moving along the winding mountain road, and many of them were still dripping with blood, and it was not known whether it came from them or the blood left behind by the fierce battle of the opponent before.
This cavalry team of more than 50,000 people, having just experienced an encirclement battle before, relied on its strong combat effectiveness and fighting spirit of not fearing life and death, after paying a certain price, killed the enemy and broke out of the encirclement.
This team that is like an arrow is the blade warrior under Lin Feng's hand, and the tens of thousands of troops under Hou Mingfeng's hand.
Lin Feng's armor was dripping with blood, straddled the war horse, covered his forehead with his left hand, raised his eyes to look, and on the horse slasher in his right hand, the blood in the blood groove had not yet condensed, and fell to the ground drop by drop along the blade.
In the past five days, it is not clear what happened in Donghu, in the two directions of Longcheng and Hunhe County, a steady stream of cavalry appeared, like a flock of vultures hovering in the sky, attacking from time to time.
Within five days, Lin Feng and his entourage encountered seven fierce battles, more than a dozen small battles, and under the absolute superiority of the opponent's troops, they barely managed to defeat the opponent's heavy encirclement, but they were also about to lose 20,000 elite cavalry, these people were all elite cavalry who fought with Hou Mingfeng in the south and the north, and before they had time to enjoy the joy of victory, they were buried in other places.
After going deep into Donghu, Zhang Yu, who had been in uninterrupted contact with them, did not send any news within five days, and the road for exchanging messages was blocked, allowing Lin Feng to smell a hint of danger from it.
The Donghu people don't see the rabbit and don't scatter the eagle, and now they are grabbing their own tails and not letting go, they must be determined to wipe out their own line on the land of Donghu.
"Your Majesty, at present, the army is at the foot of Wenhui Mountain, and further forward is the boundary of Hunhe County, and five hundred miles to the south will reach Xiapi County, but the last general thinks that the road to the south is difficult, and the cavalry from the Hunhe County area seems to have a tendency to force us to the west in the past few days." Seven battles in five days are not enough to be fatal, but Hou Mingfeng can see something strange from it, the number of cavalry on the other side is very large, the banner is not uniform, there are both from various tribes, and there are iron cavalry from the Donghu Royal Court, but the dispatch is well-organized, and they cooperate with each other skillfully, it is obvious that the Donghu Royal Court began to attack them.
This will, looking at Lin Feng looking into the distance, Hou Mingfeng probably guessed his thoughts, the road to attack Hunhe County is full of dangers and obstacles, and the future is unknown, Lin Feng has the intention of returning south, but he can't get any news, and now their more than 50,000 cavalry have become a lone army on the vast grassland.
"Oh, to the south is Xiapi County!" Lin Feng put down his hand, picked up the water bladder and drank a sip of water, licked his lips that were still dry, and said a little unpleasantly: "Old Hou, I have despised the Donghu people after all, in the past five days, along the way, we have encountered at least nearly 300,000 cavalry, you say, how many soldiers and horses are there in this Donghu, grandma's, endless!" ”
Lin Feng knew that the area of Donghu was very large, and the previous area was the size of China, and after annexing a large area of the Xiongnu, the area expanded a lot, although the population of the various dynasties in ancient China was not uniform, and tens of millions of people were also sparse and ordinary.
As a grassland tribe, Lin Feng himself does not know how many people Donghu has, but it occupies such a vast area, and the population is not as large as that of the Central Plains countries, and there must be a lot of them.
At the moment, it seems that when he meets a tribe, there are cavalry attacking and attacking him, these flies the size of rice grains are not fatal, but they make Lin Feng feel bored, and he has the illusion that a tiger can't catch it after eating the sky.
Under the harassment of these small tribes, the losses of the army are very small, and they can be controlled by others everywhere, and they have not yet broken out of the encirclement, and they will fall into the encirclement, which are interlocking, and one tribe after another, they are all bitten by their own blocks.
It's a pity that Hou Mingfeng came and answered Lin Feng's words, so he cheered up again, leaned on the ground and listened carefully with his ears sideways, and suddenly his face changed abruptly, and he got up and shouted at Lin Feng: "Your Majesty, there is another enemy attack, from the direction of Hunhe County!" ”
Lin Feng sat quietly on the war horse, pricked up his ears, and soon the sound of hurried horses' hooves came from the direction of Hunhe County, as the cavalry approached, the sound of rumbling horses' hooves gradually became clear, like a morning bell and a dusk drum, Lin Feng looked stunned, his cheeks became hideous, he raised his horse chopping knife, and shouted. "Enemy attack! Blade Warriors, quickly line up and prepare to meet the enemy! ”
In the past few days, as the main force of the battle, the blade warriors have moved up and down very fast, with the two wings of Hou Mingfeng's troops, before the arrival of the rumbling cavalry, the blade warriors have been in strict formation, set up a posture, with a strong bow in their hands, ready to meet the enemy at any time.
As the enemy approached, Lin Feng raised his eyes and looked up and down at the cavalry that rushed out in front, and said to Hou Mingfeng in confusion: "Old Hou, guess what tribe this cavalry comes from, and 20,000 cavalry dare to come to us for trouble?" It's really a tiger falling in Pingyang and being bullied by dogs, and 20,000 cavalry is not enough for blade soldiers to stuff their teeth. ”
Lin Feng said very easily, but he was thinking repeatedly in his heart, the two cavalry on the other side obstructed him, either he was careless to the enemy, and the moths fought the fire and killed themselves, or there was some conspiracy behind him, and he had to guard against it!
"Your Majesty, the other party has not yet shown the flag, and the general will not know for the time being that the other party is from the Donghu tribe. However, we are already a terrifying existence of the Donghu tribe on the grassland, and the other party dares to block us with 20,000 cavalry, and we will definitely be defeated. Hou Mingfeng stared at the whirlwind moving cavalry in the distance, his face was gloomy, and he said with a serious expression.
No matter what conspiracy the other party is from the Donghu tribe, today's battle may be inevitable, even if they meet by chance, they must annihilate all the other party, otherwise, these people will expose the whereabouts of the army again, and I am afraid that it will be an endless fierce battle!
The appearance of 20,000 cavalry made Lin Feng more and more aware of the danger of the situation, the army had just fought hard, and he didn't have time to rest, and he was attacked by the enemy, it was obvious that the other party was like a wild dog, biting his tail and not letting go.
At this moment, Lin Feng didn't dare to hold it up, and whispered to Hou Mingfeng: "Old Hou, I will take advantage of the chaos to send a hundred blade soldiers, day and night, to send the news of our presence in Donghu back to Youzhou, inform Wen Jishi and Situ, and find ways to send cavalry, otherwise, our 50,000 people may be buried in Donghu." ”
After Lin Feng finished speaking, he held the horse chopping knife, patted Hou Mingfeng on the shoulder, and urged the horse to step forward, already leading the troops to prepare for the impact.
In Stone Town, Zhang Yu has been fighting with the death row troops for several days, and this death row army is worthy of being one of the elite under Borshu, and the two sides have won and lost each other in the past three or four days, and Stone Town has not been lost for the time being.
It can't be lost in his hands, and it is a bit whimsical to send 30,000 troops of death row prisoners, just like breaking through Stone City.
After three days of hard fighting, Zhang Yu lost more than 20,000 people, but he also thwarted the opponent's conspiracy and killed more than 10,000 people.
These Zhang Yu were not worried, what worried him was that five days ago, he suddenly lost contact with the emperor's army, and there was no news for a few days, which made Zhang Yu extremely anxious.
