Chapter 270: To become the true king of the south
General Firuz Kargi rode on a war elephant and led 50,000 infantry unhurriedly towards the country of Marbury...... His trusty friend and assistant, Adjutant Masld led the army in front with 30,000 cavalry.
The army of more than 80,000 men stretched for nearly thirty miles...... People in some of the villages they passed along the way had already fled in fear.
General Firuz Kargi was pleased that his army was quite well disciplined and ignored the peasants.
Of course, they all know that those peasants will have nothing in their homes...... The truly rich place is Marbury Harbour!
Under normal circumstances, the ratio of cavalry to infantry is basically one to three, but this time for the military operation, General Firuz Kargi had a lot of ideas...... Not only did he want to bring the kingdom of Marbury to its knees, but he also wanted to pacify the entire South...... Before he becomes the new Sultan of Delhi, he will become the true King of the South!
Therefore, cavalry is undoubtedly the fastest class!
He wants to accumulate wealth quickly, and quickly get the military elite of forty people to recognize his abilities...... If it succeeds, it is not impossible for him to replace the old and decrepit Sultan immediately!
General Firuz Kargi had a heroic record of defeating the army of Tatar bandits...... The scorching heat, wide rivers and ferocious war elephants were all important helpers in his victory.
Of course, his courage is also there.
The elephant of the war elephant has a pavilion-style seat unique to Tianzhu on its back, and when sitting on it, not only will it not be exposed to the sun, but it can also blow a gust of wind.
He couldn't help but sigh that every winter is a good season for war...... This operation must be successful!
While General Firuz Kargi was squinting his eyes and contemplating the future, soldiers suddenly came running to report that a man who claimed to be the king of the princely state of Dadiel had come with three hundred of his warriors to join the Sultan's army.
Huh, Dadier Princely State?
He had no idea where it was...... But when the army was about to reach the southern plateau, some people took the initiative to take refuge, which was a good thing anyway.
He immediately had the earth king brought up, and questioned him while marching normally.
It turned out that his princely state had been invaded by the country of Marbury for no reason, and some merchants of the Federal Empire were constantly digging for all kinds of minerals in his princely state, and they also drove his former brave warriors as miners!
The earth king wept as he spoke.
His princely state has always been in harmony with his neighbors, and his own position as king has been passed down for four generations, and he is deeply loved by the people, but the damned king Marbury insisted on unified management with himself, and he did not listen, so they sent troops, and the throne was gone...... If the Delhi Sultan's army can help him reclaim his position as the Soil King, he is willing to submit to the Delhi Sultan forever!
When General Firuz Kargi heard this, he smiled disdainfully and casually agreed to him.
The position of the earth king is nothing in his eyes, and he will talk about it until he has brought the entire southern region into submission......
General Firuz Kargi once again inquired about the military situation in the country of Mabury...... The Primordial King honestly told everything he knew, and it was basically the same as what he sent out to say.
The country of Marbury is desperately recruiting troops, but the number of people is only 10,000, and the number of war horses is only 2,000!
However, they have a strange weapon that can breathe fire and kill people from afar!
The king of the land wept and said that his loyal and brave general had been killed by that weapon...... And they also have a thick pipe that can spew out even greater flames, and after that flame there is something even more terrible, which can break people!
At that time, if he hadn't run fast, he would have been shattered......
General Firuz Kargi frowned and thought for a long time, and he couldn't figure out what a weapon that could break people looked like...... Maybe it's because they're cowardly and scared?
General Firuz Kargi asked him: "Will the weapon you are talking of shoot farther than a bow and arrow?" ”
The Primordial Earth King lowered his head and said dejectedly, "...... I don't know, we haven't had time to shoot arrows yet...... I was scared away by them......"
When General Firuz Kargi heard this, he was angry and laughed, he was scared away without firing a single shot, and he made up such a lie to scare others...... It's them making excuses for their cowardice!
At this time, the war elephant under him raised its trunk and neighed...... The War Elephant is an extremely intelligent mount, which indicates that it has spotted water in front of it.
Sure enough, a cavalry came to report that there was a river twenty karts ahead, but fortunately, the center of the river was at most half a man deep.
Adjutant Masld was a fine assistant, and along the way he kept arranging detectives to move forward...... But the enemy was not encountered at all.
General Firuz Kargi couldn't help but be full of confidence when he looked at the dejected appearance of the former land king...... Haha, King Marbury and the peasant army he recruited may have been scared away, right?!
He ordered the whole army to rest by the river, and was stationed there for the night.
King Marbury, on a white horse, rode up and down a long half-man's high barrier made of sacks of earth.
His mood was tense and anxious.
It's a battle of life and death!
King Marbury heeded the advice of the young ambassador of the Confederation Empire to resist in the name of defending the Tianzhu Sect...... To emphasize this, he also brought some of the Brahmin high-caste temple personnel to the front!
Unable to defeat the army of the Delhi Sultan, they will have to convert to the gods they have believed in all their lives......
Sure enough, whether it was the original Marbury soldiers or the soldiers who had just been "unified" who had just been recruited, they were all excited and bravely expressed their desire to defeat each other...... Even to the death of the other party, their gods will bless them!
Those sacks were originally ordered from them by merchants in the Nankai area, but they were needed for war, and King Marbury directly requisitioned them...... When the time comes, just give someone a little compensation.
Chairman Wu Dapeng is indeed a strong speaker, and he provided a large number of guns and ammunition to the Marbury army, and even a larger caliber of bronze artillery!
The Imperial Army's teaching companies were indeed training his troops seriously, and every time he went on his rounds, he could see them training with the same sweat as his own soldiers.
His newly recruited soldiers, as they were selected, looked like they were in good shape in just one month...... However, they are still recruits.
King Marbury looked up at the back of the barrier...... There were four battalions of the Imperial Army, and he saw the Imperial Army soldiers in earthy green uniforms busy back and forth, knowing that they were arranging artillery and rocket positions.
His heart was at peace.
In a marching tent, Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin was surrounded by several of his battalion commanders and officers in white uniforms, gesturing and talking on a large map that had just been drawn.
Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin suddenly asked the officer in the white uniform, "How high can your air force rise when it is safe?" ”
The Air Force officer said calmly: "There is no problem with two thousand meters high......"
"I don't need those high ...... After defeating them, you can send back the information from a height of 1,000 meters. ”
The Air Force officer nodded calmly.
