Chapter 254: Crushing the Second Lord of Goryeo
In the forest outside the city, the Goryeo soldiers who were ambushed came out and ambushed the defenders who were pursuing out of the city!
The 6,000 defenders were attacked by the elite special troops of the Goryeo Kingdom, and the whole army was annihilated!
"The level of this group of defenders is generally only level 30, which is too weak."
The Bebu Ban under the command of the lord of Goryeo, Yi Min-cheol, easily surrounded and annihilated the 6,000 defenders who had left the city.
Annihilating the main force of the defenders means that the city is empty of troops and can take the city.
"This city belongs to me!"
The elite of Bebu Ban and a group of Goryeo soldiers quickly marched towards the city.
War eagles were still monitoring the movements of the Goryeo army from the air.
"Cavalry! There are cavalry approaching! ”
The Goryeo scout cavalry found out that the enemy cavalry was infested!
"The Divine Cavalry Battalion immediately went to intercept!"
Lee Min Cheol didn't expect to be ambushed after the victory, indicating that the other party was deliberately ambushed, in order to wait for him to win and attack!
His subordinate general, Yi Qiang, hurriedly arranged his troops, but ......
"The Divine Cavalry Battalion was overwhelmed by the enemy's cavalry assault!"
"How could my Divine Riding Battalion be defeated so quickly......"
Ijun was shocked.
The Bewu Squad is the most effective by the cooperation of multiple units, and once the Divine Cavalry Battalion is destroyed, the remaining battalions will be quite passive.
"Retreat to the woods!"
The Goryeo army began to retreat into the nearby woods.
The cavalry on the opposite side was unusually strong, and in the plains meant that they would be harassed and struck by the opposing cavalry.
The Goryeo army retreated in a hurry, and Lee Min Chol, who had personally broken off, saw the rout of the cavalry of the Divine Cavalry Battalion on the horizon, and in the rear were the white horse retinues who were chasing them, and the Red Dragon Banner, which symbolized the Eastern Han Dynasty!
As the vanguard, Hakuma Yicong took the lead in defeating the divine cavalry battalion of the other martial arts!
Zhao Yun was in silver armor and white robe, chasing and killing behind the defeated army of the Divine Cavalry Battalion!
"East ...... The army of the Eastern Han Dynasty! ”
Li Minzhe is very familiar with the military flags used by the Eastern Han Kingdom during the war, and it is obvious that the army of the Eastern Han lord who ambushed him!
Goryeo and the Eastern Han Dynasty formed a feud in the first national war, and this time they united with the surrounding civilizations of the Eastern Han Dynasty to suppress the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the two sides have become like fire and water.
White Horse Yicong rushed the Shenbu Battalion and used cavalry to interfere with the retreating Shenbu Battalion.
Mulan led the Iron Eagle Scout Cavalry to make a detour from the flank, trying to cut off its rear route.
Xue Rengui and Li Guang's archers appeared!
With the appearance of Li Guang, Li Guang's "flying general" characteristics took effect, and the morale of the Goryeo army declined!
The Goryeo army, which was attacked by cavalry, was like a potato being sliced, and the troops on the outskirts were constantly killed and reduced.
Fortunately, long-range troops such as terrier bows, crossbows, and fires used a rain of arrows and low-level firearms to contain the attack of the Eastern Han cavalry, otherwise the whole army would have collapsed.
The flying general Li Guang even stepped forward and shot three arrows in succession, killing the three soldiers of the crossbow battalion on the opposite side!
"The formation must not be broken!"
Lee Min Chol, who was in a hurry to command, suddenly felt a terrifying aura, and he and his regiment fell into panic.
The feeling is familiar.
During the First National War, Li Minzhe, who was trapped in Anshi City, once felt this momentum in one person - Li Shimin, the commander of the Tang Army at that time!
The characteristics of the "Heavenly Khan" are suppressing the Goryeo army!
Chu Tian led the Shooting Battalion, the Women's Army, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and the heavy infantry to catch up, and he personally went into battle, and the "Heavenly Khan" and the "Great Han Army Soul" would play a role.
A lord who ranked in the top two in the Goryeo Kingdom was completely suppressed by Chutian's legions.
"The strength of the lords of the Goryeo Kingdom is not weak, and they can barely maintain their formation after being assaulted. I really underestimate the heroes of the world. ”
Chu Tian saw that the 10,000-strong army on the opposite side did not flee, but was still retreating in a direction, and his expression became more and more solemn.
He had to be more careful not to stumble in the war.
Only later did Chu Tian know that the second-ranked lord of the Goryeo Kingdom and the special class "Bewu Class" in front of him were not ordinary lords of the Goryeo Kingdom. Even so, at the beginning of the national war, Lee Min Cheol was directly disabled by him......
The hapless Li Minzhe, after losing part of his troops, finally fled to the woods, using the cover of fences and woods to prevent the Eastern Han army from approaching.
Wooden hedgerows and woods were effective in deterring cavalry charges and cavalry fire.
"My lord, please let the last general lead the heavy infantry and the shooting battalion to encircle and suppress the remnants of the opponent's army."
In order to make a name for himself and completely integrate into the Xuzhou camp, Le Yi volunteered to encircle and suppress Li Minzhe.
The second lord of Goryeo was just a barbarian mountain in his eyes.
Chu Tian originally planned to agree with Le Yi, who was good at attacking, to completely destroy the Goryeo Legion, but Hua Mulan urgently reported to Chu Tian: "Another lord's legion is coming quickly, and the scout cavalry has already detected their banner, the banner is a four-type rhombus, and some of the banners use Chinese characters!" ”
"Type 4 Rhomboid......"
Chutian judged the other party's civilization according to the flag.
Not all legions with Chinese character flags were legions of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
The Toei Legion was also very fond of using Chinese characters.
"This is the banner of the Daimyo Takeda family of Toei."
Soon Chu Tian had a judgment.
Takeda Shingen, the first warman of the Warring States of Dongying, the tiger of Kai.
He borrowed from "The Art of War" and used the tactical concept of "its swiftness is like the wind, its speed is like a forest, aggression is like fire, and immobility is like a mountain", which is well-known in Dongying District.
Chu Tian didn't know how Takeda Shingen was in history, but in "Lord", the Takeda family had one of the most powerful cavalry in the Dongying District, and it would not be weak.
Goryeo and Dongying collude, then this Dongying lord will most likely come to the aid of the Goryeo lord.
"Take the captives and go to the siege."
After the arrival of the other party's reinforcements, Chu Tian retreated in time.
It's not good to be flanked by the Goryeo lord and the Dongying lord.
Chu Tian's luck was not very good, the two lords who appeared in this area were the leaders of their respective civilization regions, and they came to participate in the battle with special troops.
Chu Tian had the ability to wipe them out completely, but losing too many troops would only lead to two endings, either not having enough troops to attack the city, or being attacked by a fourth lord wandering nearby.
The priority was to capture the city and get supplies.
After Chutian's army left with more than a thousand Goryeo captives, Li Minzhe sat on the ground and gasped for breath.
Almost he was defeated by Chutian's army until the whole army was annihilated, and he was also going to become a prisoner of Chutian.
With the grudge between him and the Eastern Han Dynasty, he didn't think that Chu Tian would let him go.
"The army of the suzerainty is so strong that my Bewuban has no power to resist in front of them. Which lord of the Eastern Han Dynasty is he? ”
Lee Min Cheol has a deeper understanding of the horror of the lord of the suzerain.
Although the Chutian Legion had a surprise attack element and caught Li Minzhe off guard, Li Minzhe could see the huge gap between the two sides.
If it weren't for the fact that the gap between the two sides was too great, his army would not have been routed so easily.
"White robe, white horse, there are two lords in the Eastern Han Dynasty who have such a cavalry, Prince Yan, the lord of Liaoxi, and ...... Chu Zimou of the Eastern Han Dynasty! ”
Li Minzhe shuddered when he thought of that terrible man.
That's a big lord with a population of tens of millions, and Chu Zimou's name has replaced me I just want to farm well and spread it throughout the Goryeo Kingdom and the Wa Kingdom!
"It's really unfortunate to meet him, but he has a chance to destroy me, why did he take the initiative to withdraw his troops?"
Li Minzhe knew that Chu Tian would not show mercy to his subordinates during the national war, and there must be a reason for him to withdraw his troops, so there was only one possibility - there were other lords coming.
An army of five hundred Chibei cavalry, thousands of samurai from the Takeda family, and ashigaru (low-level infantry) replaced the retreating Chutian Legion and appeared on the horizon.
"The lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the lords of Goryeo had better lose both, and there is no need to sacrifice the precious red cavalry in order to rescue the lords of Goryeo."
If the Dongying Lord led the Red Reserve Cavalry to march at a rapid pace alone, he might be able to intercept the Chutian Legion.
But he was reluctant to engage the Chutian Legion.
Instead of contributing in person, it is better to let the Eastern Han Dynasty and Goryeo consume.
Lee Min Cheol was on guard against the Red Cavalry.
He had already recognized that this was one of the highest-ranking cavalrymen in the Toei District, and he was afraid that it was still a hundred battle cavalry borrowed from the daimyo Takeda Shingen.
Out of distrust of the lord of Dongying, he and the general Yi Qian took hundreds of personal soldiers to negotiate with the other party at a distance of twenty meters.
"I am Lee Min-cheol, the lord of Kaegyeong, Goryeo, who was attacked by the lord of the Eastern Han Dynasty not long ago. My legion was defeated by him. ”
"Lord Toei Takeda Tadayoshi. I heard that you are the second-ranked lord of Goryeo, but I am really embarrassed. ”
There was obvious disdain in the eyes of the Dongying Lord.
The fact that the second lord of a civilized area was defeated as soon as the war began, really damaged the image of a civilized district.
However, the lords of Goryeo are like this, strong on the outside and strong on the middle.
Probably sensing the disdain from his allies, Lee explained: "The legion that attacked me is the legion of the world's number one lord, you should know what this means?" ”
"Chu Zimou of the Eastern Han Dynasty?"
Tadayoshi Takeda was finally moved.
If it was Chu Zimou's army that attacked Li Minzhe, then it was not incomprehensible that Li Minzhe's army could not collapse.
Lee Min Chul is ranked second in Goryeo, but it may not be enough in the world.
"We can only compete with it if we join forces."
"Yes. But before we can do that, we're going to take a town and get supplies. ”
The lords of the two different civilizations have officially joined forces.
After Chu Tian withdrew from the battlefield, he immediately went to attack the city that was empty in defense.
Li Minzhe, the lord of Goryeo, was calculated, and Chutian picked up the cheap and let Le Yi command the siege.
At the same time, Mulan's cavalry probed around to prevent the city from being taken advantage of by other lords when the city was broken.
In order to reduce the loss of troops, before the siege, Chu Tian personally persuaded the soldiers of Goryeo to surrender.
When Chutian came to the Goryeo captive, the Goryeo captives were afraid of Chutian like a tiger, as if they had seen the real Heavenly Khan.
In the battle just now, 1,000 Goryeo legions were killed and wounded, and 1,000 prisoners were captured.
"As the vanquished, your lives belong to me, and with my words, your heads will fall to the ground. Serve me, drive for me, and live! ”
Chutian personally forced his landing, and about 700 Goryeo soldiers were shocked by Chutian's invisible coercion, knelt down and surrendered, and regarded Chutian as the co-lord of the world.
"They will be driven by you and used by you."
Chutian handed over seven hundred Goryeo soldiers to Le Yi to use as cannon fodder for the siege.
The troops brought by Chutian from Xuzhou were all elite, and it was too cost-effective to spend on siege.
For Chu Tian, using Goryeo soldiers as cannon fodder is not distressing at all.
Le Yi was amazed at Chu Tian's ability to tame the aliens, but since he had obtained an excellent team of cannon fodder troops, he took the Goryeo soldiers as the main force and stormed this city.
If Li Minzhe knew that his elite would be used as siege cannon fodder after being captured, he would definitely be heartbroken, this is a fifth-order class recruited at a great cost!
Le Yi's siege ability was extremely strong, Li Guang volunteered to act as the first to lead a group of Goryeo infantry to climb the city wall, kill more than ten enemy soldiers in one fell swoop, and then seize the city gate, and the cavalry entered the city in a big way!
"It's thanks to the generous lord of Goryeo who took the city so easily."
Chu Tian took a city without much effort.
After having a city, he didn't have to worry about food for the time being.
Fang Xuanling quickly understood the resources of this city: "This city has a sixth-level barracks, as well as a lot of gold, silver and weapons......
"Recruit a group of low-level troops as cannon fodder."
Chu Tian forcibly requisitioned 20,000 young men in the city and transferred them to low-level troops.
The training cycle of low-level troops is short, which is suitable for forming a troop advantage in the early stage.
The second is to set up a 10,000-strong grain transport team to prevent insufficient food supplies during long-term operations.
Chutian gathered all the horses and grain in the city.
He didn't need to build the city, so he was free to use all the resources in the city.
Finally, there is the recruitment of high-level troops.
High-level cavalry needed qualified war horses, and Chu Tian only scavenged dozens of qualified war horses in the city, and could not recruit more high-level cavalry.
So he recruited qualified soldiers from all over the city.
The Women's Army only has a limit on the source of troops and does not need to consider equipment, so it can expand its troops on a large scale.
Under Chu Tian's coercion and temptation, all the 1,000 qualified women in the city were rushed to the sixth-level barracks for training, so as to train into the women's army as soon as possible.
Chu Tian didn't need to care about the people's will, so he was able to recruit so many soldiers.
This is a bit of a forced soldier.
Chu Tian used the weapons and armor he collected to recruit soldiers for his "Fifth School of the Northern Army - Infantry Battalion".
The infantry battalion, as a battalion of the fifth school of the Northern Army, is the same as the shooting battalion, and is a sixth-order branch of the army, which is a sixth-order light infantry.
[Class]: Infantry Battalion (5th Colonel of the Northern Army)
[Rank]: Sixth-order light infantry
[Attack]: 20 [Defense]: 10 [Speed]: 6
[Skill]: Advanced Fenxun, Advanced Shield Array, Advanced Spear Array, Han Soul (+10% damage against aliens)
[Military salary]: 6 taels / month
[Must Equip]: Gold-level swords, spears, halberds, silver-level bows, silver-level shields, qualified soldiers, etc
[Training period]: 2 months
[Maximum number]: 3,000
The equipment looted in the city could only recruit a thousand infantry battalions.
"1,000 infantry battalions, 1,000 women's troops, plus dozens of high-level cavalry, 20,000 low-level troops......"
Chu Tian carefully counted the harvest of the capture of this city.
Unfortunately, there weren't many horses that qualified high-ranking cavalry rode in this city.
Chu Tian scored 351 points in this battle, ranking 13th in the world now.
During this time, many lords broke out into conflicts, and the number one Catherine had reached 800 points.
"What a bunch of war maniacs, can't everyone get along peacefully?"
Chu Tian couldn't help but sigh.
"My lord, an army of the Mughal Empire of India has been found in the east!"
"Assemble them now and destroy them!"
