The changes of the times are vast, and what a martial art the former Ilkhanate was, a powerful khanate that almost single-handedly destroyed the world order at the junction of Asia, Africa and Europe, now it only needs a few border armies under the command of Tianzhu to consider destroying the country.

This is really embarrassing.

Even a fierce man like Shi Xiu, who claims to have thick lines, also feels quite touched.

The next day, the engagement between the Western Expeditionary Army and the Hu people did not surprise everyone, and even the most elite Cowardly Xue Army under the command of the Great Khan Heerban did not stop the footsteps of the Western Expeditionary Army.

The line infantry formation of the Western Expeditionary Army seemed to be striding forward, like a city wall slowly advancing, slowly crushing the space of the battlefield, and the Mongol cavalry on the opposite side had no room to charge at all.

Bullets rained down, rows and rows harvested the lives of the Hu people on the battlefield.

Especially the most hateful artillery of the Song people for the Mongols, they have never encountered such accurate artillery as on the battlefield today, and almost every time the Mongols gather to attack the array line of the Song people, they will be bombarded by the enemy from a few miles away, often after a few cannons or a dozen cannons, they will become skirmishers, and there is no threat to the Song people's firearms.

This kind of war was not at all a familiar battlefield for the Mongols. The cannonballs and bullets flying over the battlefield combined to dominate the sky above the battlefield, and the brave and cowardly Xue army completely became the target of the Song people's guns.

The servant armies of various ethnic groups collected by the Mongols were even more imminently crushed, and blood and death were everywhere, which was no longer a war, but a complete slaughter of advanced civilizations against backward civilizations.

With less than 10,000 troops, the Western Expeditionary Army was able to drive more than 30,000 cavalry across the mountains.

For Shi Xiu, who was standing on the only high platform built on the hilly battlefield and commanding the battle, this battle was extremely boring, and the enemy on the opposite side was killed like pigs and sheep.

What he liked was the kind of blood-surging and fierce and anxious bloody battle between the two sides, and the crushing battle committee like such a mechanical pure queue slaughter in front of him really didn't interest him.

However, he also knew that if nothing else, the vast majority of future wars should be such wars.

Today's Song army is completely different from the armies of all other countries in this era, this army has been transformed into a complete killing machine by the Grand Governor, this machine does not pursue bravery, let alone blood, it only pursues victory. In the face of such a terrible war machine, there is no enemy worthy of a war.

It is the nightmare of all the enemies of this age and its own era, but at the same time it is its own sorrow.

The Western Expeditionary Army did not gain much in this battle, but it was still somewhat gained, at least the defeat of these Mongol horses was a big gain. The Cowardly Xue Army was considered a heavy cavalry, and every Cowardly Xue Army soldier in the establishment of the Cowardly Xue Army had at least two servants and more than three horses. Therefore, after defeating the Cowardly Xue Army, even if the remaining servant army was not completely annihilated, just the Cowardly Xue Army's own camp allowed the Western Expeditionary Army to capture a large number of war horses, which was enough to make the Western Expeditionary Army a complete mounted infantry.

After fighting with the Mongols for a long time, the Japanese army also learned a lot, although the Japanese soldiers did not have the standard of good riding skills like the Hu cavalry, but there was no problem in marching on horseback.

In this Central Asia, where the battlefield is full of flat terrain, horseback riding is a must-have skill for almost everyone, let alone an elite like the Japanese army.

Therefore, the Western Expeditionary Army then replaced all its members with mounted infantry, leaving behind other enemy and friendly troops on this battlefield, ignoring the Hu cavalry who were still harassing and wanting to obstruct the advance of the Western Expeditionary Army, and pointed directly at another important khanate town behind - Isfahan.

……………………………………

To the west of the Ilkhanate, the Byzantine Empire and the Celestial Marquis of Feixiong marched more smoothly than on the eastern side, after Ghurban had evacuated the surrounding regions of Asia Minor, Syria, Armenia, and Georgia for the great battle on the battlefield of Khorasan.

After the Qin led the Feixiong army to occupy Basra, they quickly marched north to occupy Syria, but soon stopped at the Syrian border, and they did not want to clash with the Byzantine Empire, which also had the same purpose of taking advantage of the fire.

After the occupation of Syria, it quickly turned east and north, and from the sky above the territory of the entire territory of the Ilkhanate, the current Flying Hung Army and the Byzantine Imperial Army were even closer to Tabriz than the Western Expeditionary Army and the Princes' Coalition Army to the east.

This change in the battlefield soon spread to the east through the flying pigeon on the battlefield.

"What?"

The Byzantine Empire even wanted to occupy Tabriz?

The Feixiong army quickly got the news, which annoyed the Qin side who didn't want to clash with the Byzantine Empire in advance.

This is absolutely impossible.

Qin Fang led the Feixiong army to move forward quickly to block the front of the Byzantine Empire.

The main force of the Byzantine Empire's troops this time was about 6,000 light and heavy cavalry of all kinds, as well as more than 20,000 infantry, which was already a heavy force for this country that was sandwiched between the East and the West in the middle of the Asia-Europe passage and was not vast, which was almost all the elite they could dispatch.

This era is no longer the era of the Eastern Roman Empire, as evidenced by the fact that the Ilkhanate was able to keep them on the side of the Asia-Europe corridor, even if it was already weakened.

The rise of the Eurasian and Roman kingdoms to the east had brought their so-called co-masters of Christendom from their peak to a much decline.

This time it's just taking advantage of the Tianzhu people's attack on the Ilkhanate to take the opportunity to steal something, to put it bluntly, at most, it's just to grab some leftovers after the Tianzhu people's gluttonous feast, who knows if you're still satisfied, and you still want to be the protagonist?

Stealing the next victory from your own hands?

How is that possible!

The Feixiong army was dozens of miles away, obliquely blocking the way of the Byzantine Imperial army.

In the tent of the Byzantine Imperial Army, General Heracle jumped to his feet in anger.

"Damn the Tianzhu people!"
