In November, the snow is already falling in Mobei, but in the southern foothills of the Himalayas, it is still lush and green. Shile's army and the army of the Gamobo kingdom set up a battle formation a hundred miles southeast of the capital of the Gamobo kingdom, which was Shile's conquest of the north and then pointed his troops to the east of South Asia.

The army of the Kama Wibo Kingdom has 80,000 people, and Shile has no more than 50,000 people, of which the elite of the Karma tribe is no more than 10,000. King Gamobo did not pay any attention to this 'fleeing' army. Although Shile had won many battles before, most of the conquered tribes were only half-civilized indigenous tribes.

The country of Kamobo was one of the ancient South Asian countries, and its site was located in and around Shahati in the western part of present-day Assam, India. Around the 4th century, the Assamese founded the kingdom of Gamoha. Without Shile's arrival, this ancient kingdom would have existed for nearly a thousand years until the 13th century, when the Ahom people from Burma conquered the kingdom of Kamojabo and established the Ahom state.

Most of Shi Le's command were conquered natives of the Northland, but the main force was still the Chinese army led by Shi Le, including 8,000 elite people of the Liang tribe and 15,000 infantry from the Western Regions. The rest of the Qiang people were all scattered among the local indigenous soldiers by Shile in order to improve the combat effectiveness of the indigenous soldiers.

The country of Gamo is the most powerful enemy that Shile has encountered since entering South Asia, so this time Shile sent an unprecedented 5,000 elite cavalry to act as the vanguard. It can be seen that Shile attaches great importance to the first battle, after all, the loyalty of the indigenous soldiers in Shile's army has yet to be tested. If the first battle is won, needless to say, if the first battle is unfavorable, the indigenous soldiers will not defect. Turning around and running is a certainty.

The two armies faced each other, and the Kamobo army took the lead in attacking, and the army with a total strength of only 80,000 troops attacked 50,000 at that time, which was like swallowing 5,000 of the 5,000 Qian's forward in one bite.

If the main force of the Kamobo army was cavalry, this battle might have been a different ending.

Unfortunately, the Kamobo army was basically infantry. If you want to rely on this little force to destroy the battle-hardened Karma people, you can only say that the people of the Kama Wisp Country are too arrogant. If you don't play against powerful countries, you will never know how wonderful the outside world is. Just like the king of the kingdom of Kamobo, he was opposite to Shile, who had fled in his heart. It's simply the opponent of the not powerful Kamobo army!

When the Kama Wibo army was still about two hundred and fifty paces away from the cavalry of the Karma tribe. I saw that Huyan Mo in the cavalry formation of the Qianren people raised his arm first, raised a "divine arm bow" (a kind of individual crossbow smuggled from the Great Jin), and quickly shot an arrow at the enemy. I saw the arrow fall like lightning at the foot of an enemy soldier who rushed to the front, and slammed into the ground with a 'whoosh'!

The Gamma Wave soldier was stunned for a moment. Shouting. Continue to rush to the cavalry first. After about ten steps. Huyanmo sent another arrow through the chest of the Gama Wave soldier. It was like blowing the horn of battle, and I saw that the other 5,000 cavalry of the Qiang tribe also immediately raised their arms. Shooting crossbow arrows at the onrushing enemy, the Gama Wisps fell to the ground.

Seeing this, the Gamobo soldiers also shot back with arrows, but a top archer only shot a hundred steps, and the arrows of the Gamobo army fell to the ground before they were half-shot.

Seeing the rows of his companions who rushed to the front fall, while the enemy was unscathed, the morale of the Gama Wisp army collapsed in an instant, and they began to retreat.

The victory of the vanguard mustered the courage of the indigenous soldiers in the rear, Shile took advantage of the situation and gave the order to attack, and the five thousand cavalry immediately rushed out, which was used by the Qian, a good horse produced in Mobei, with strong endurance, tall stature, and very fast speed, and rushed in front of the enemy in the blink of an eye!

If 5,000 cavalry attacked the well-protected position of the Xiang army, I am afraid that they would not reach the eyes of the Jin army, and they would be wiped out by the artillery fire and muskets of the Xiang army. However, for the Kamobo army, which lacked cavalry, even if it was only this cavalry force, it still had a great advantage.

After the cavalry, tens of thousands of native soldiers shouted and followed, and although these natives were not strong in combat, they were obedient and numerous. So the natives were pretty good at being strong, and most of them, armed with swords and guns, barefoot, followed the cavalry and rushed up with a scream.

Seeing that the army was defeated, King Kamohambo came up with his killer weapon - the elephant soldiers.

Soon, nearly a thousand war elephants came up to meet them.

At that time, Alexander the Great, who was once invincible, suffered a great loss in front of war elephants when he attacked India.

In the fourth century AD, war elephants were tantamount to the heavy tanks of the twentieth century.

Sure enough, in the face of these behemoths, the pursuing Qiang people suddenly became confused, and many people began to run back. If it weren't for the efforts of the lower-level generals who led the troops to maintain, and even did not hesitate to kill dozens of deserters, this "torrent" would have washed away the Shile Chinese army behind.

Shile did not panic in the face of the soldiers, he had long known that the enemy had a large number of elephant soldiers, and he had been prepared for a long time. Although the elephant array is terrifying, the generals of the Qiang tribe are basically mentally prepared, and they have also seen a small number of elephant soldiers in the local tribe.

As the war elephants drew closer, Shiler let the infantry fire a flurry of crossbow arrows. The crossbow arrows fired from the bed crossbow were powerful enough to penetrate the thick skin of an elephant at a distance of 100 paces.

However, this alone is not enough, so the crossbow arrows of the Qian people have another thing - fire. The front of the arrow was tied with cotton yarn, and it was soaked in tung oil or tea oil.

The battle elephants were in disarray, and some of them even rushed down their companions on the side, but the elephants of the Kamowibo army were so numerous that many of them rushed faster under the pain.

However, in front of Shile's army, there was already one more thing.

Just when the Kamobo army released the war elephants and the indigenous soldiers in front were defeated, the Chinese army in the rear had quietly changed formation.

The crossbowmen in the middle did not move, and the crossbowmen on both sides flashed to the wings, thus giving way to two paths in the formation.

Another two thousand foot soldiers, launch something.

That is to reject the horse, that is, to sharpen one end of the whole wood, and use other wood to support it, and the sharp point points in the direction of the enemy's horse, and the war horse collides with it, and immediately disembowels it.

However, Shile's batch of rejection horses is specially made, compared with ordinary rejection horses, much thicker and taller, you might as well call it "rejection of elephants", this is Shile and Kui'an research out of the secret weapon to deal with elephant soldiers. In the deep mountains and old forests of South Asia, it is naturally not difficult to find some large wood from local materials, but these "elephant rejections" are too cumbersome, and the formation needs to be as fast as possible. They installed wooden wheels under the "elephant rejection" to make it easier to push, and when they were in good position, they used knives and axes to break the wheels.

When the "rejecting elephant" was placed, the crossbowmen of the Qian nationality returned to their original positions, and more than 10,000 soldiers of the Chinese army hid behind the "rejecting the elephant".

The war elephants of the Kamobo army rushed up with stout logs sharpened one by one. There was a chaotic sound, and many of the elephants were torn apart by the elephants, but most of them still blocked the onslaught of the elephants, and the elephants fell in front of the elephant formation.

The elephant array was broken, the morale of the Qiang coalition army was greatly boosted, and the indigenous soldiers who had almost scattered were also re-lined into a formation under the supervision of the Qiang people. Seeing that the time was ripe, Shi Le gave an order to the whole army to begin a real attack, and the native soldiers who had just escaped from the wolf and rabbit were as excited as if they had eaten the elixir, and began to chase the Kama Wisp people frantically.

At this time, the soldiers of Gama Wisp had no fighting spirit at all, and they either fled for their lives with their legs drawn, or they were captured.

Before it was dark, the battle was over, and even the king of Gamobo was taken prisoner, and only the prince fled back to the royal city with less than 10,000 remnants of his army.

However, the royal city was not safe, and most of the main force of the kingdom's army had been annihilated in the daytime battle, with more than 10,000 killed, more than 30,000 taken prisoner, and the rest running clean.

The next day, when Shile commanded his troops to the city, the royal city guards immediately opened the door and surrendered, and presented the four princes as gifts.

Shile accepted the surrender, the first nation he destroyed after entering South Asia. The country of Kama Wibo was not comparable to the indigenous tribes that had been destroyed before, and here Shile finally replenished enough food and goods, which made the people who had been worried about it finally breathe a sigh of relief, which also meant that Shile finally gained a foothold in South Asia.

Shile came from afar, although he worked step by step, paying attention to logistics support, but after all, there was still some shortage of food and grass, so after defeating the country of Gamo, the logistics problems that had plagued Shile's army before were finally completely solved. It was not easy to build a prosperous city, and "a three-day holiday" was inevitable, and Shi Le knew that if he didn't let his subordinates indulge well, I was afraid that it would be difficult to bring this soldier.

The surrendered officials of the Kamobo kingdom were temporarily appointed by Shile as the "magistrate" of the royal city to help "maintain". Because although the royal city was surrendered, there were still many places in the kingdom that had not been surrendered, and some local powerful factions adopted the strategy of "sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight" when Shile fought a decisive battle with the king, trying to "get by" on their own one-acre and three-point land.

Under the nest, will there be no eggs?

After more than a month, after some rest, Shile successively subdued most of the Kama Wibo Kingdom according to the strategy of 'big and pulling' proposed by Kui'an. The remaining 'recalcitrant ones' were also exterminated by the cavalry led by Ma Qiu, and thus the kingdom of Gama Wibo fell into the hands of Shile.

By this time, Shil's vanguard had reached two hundred miles west of the royal city of Kamobo, and controlled a large territory equivalent to the northern and northeastern parts of present-day India, including most of Assam and Meyagara and all of Nagaland, Manipur, Tripura, and Mizoram.

While Shile was attacking the northern regions of South Asia, the Great Jin Dynasty was also constantly encroaching on the southern lands. Due to the prestige of the Great Jin, the Great Jin did not have to adopt the method of force like Shile, but instead adopted the means of economy. The large population here provided the much-needed labor force for the Great Jin Dynasty, which greatly alleviated the problem of the shortage of labor in the domestic labor force of the Great Jin Dynasty.
