Chapter 1437: Arabian Storm (One Hundred and Eight Verses)
"We've won!"
With the surrender of the Kopyali and the arrival of emissaries with white flags, the Bukuts finally stopped their offensive.
When the Bukut attack stopped, their soldiers sat down in the sand and gasped for air, showing that they were really, very tired.
Many people's bodies and faces are either stained with blood or have a lot of trauma.
It's just that because the battle just now was too fierce, they didn't notice it for a while. Now that the fighting had stopped, they discovered the wounds on their bodies.
Wheezing, and a faint groan of pain, filled the Bukut troops for a while.
But one way or another, the Kopyali surrendered, and the battle ended.
They won the battle, so even though they were physically and mentally exhausted, the Bukut soldiers were still very happy and excited.
Yes, they made it to the end, so the joy that followed the victory was even more exciting.
At one point, many of them thought about giving up, because they themselves were desperate.
The commander of the Bukuts is basically in the same mindset now.
He thought about a lot, especially the one when he was about to give up the army and run away, and now he felt a little scared when he thought about it.
If he had abandoned his troops and fled, it would have been all over.
Fortunately, he didn't do this, otherwise how would he have tasted this hard-won victory wine?
Of course, the most important thing to thank is the army that suddenly appeared in the rear of the Koplyan army, if it weren't for them, they wouldn't have been able to achieve this final victory.
It can be said that it was not their Bukuts who turned the tide of the war, but the kind of army that suddenly appeared.
It was because of their presence that they attacked the rear of the Koparian army, disrupted the troops in its rear and shook the otherwise solid Kopoyali army.
This allowed the Bukuts to come back to life from their deaths, and finally turned the tide and won the final victory.
This qiē is a qiē. But I want to thank those people.
It's just that I don't know where this force came from and why they attacked the Kopyali.
In this regard, there has always been a big 'question mark' in the hearts of the commanders of the Bukuts.
Well, now that the battle is over, the Kopyali have surrendered.
Then, the next thing is to accept the surrender of the Kopyaries, and there will be no more fighting.
Taking advantage of this gap, he can thank the other party properly. At the same time, find out where the other party came from.
To be honest, in addition to thanking the other party, the combat effectiveness of Zhang Xiao and the Imperial Army also made the commander of the Bukuts very wary.
Although the Imperial Army attacked the Kopyali in this battle, it can be regarded as helping the Bukuts.
But the devil knows if these people are enemies.
At least, in this battle they weren't, but later.
Moreover, the Imperial Army showed great combat effectiveness. It also made the Bukut commander very jealous.
In his opinion, if the Imperial Army is a friend, then it is easy to say.
But once it is an enemy, it is the military strength that the Bukuts have now after such a large loss. That's very dangerous.
Of course, the Bukut commander had a lot more to think about, and not just know that the battle was over, as ordinary soldiers do, and then think about nothing.
"How did the Koparians surrender to us? There's something wrong with that. ”。 Suddenly, the Bukut commander suddenly thought of a question.
That is, why did the Kopyali surrender to themselves, and not to the army that appeared in their rear.
Honestly. The Bukuts were able to achieve a final victory in this battle thanks to the army that appeared behind the Kopoyali army.
If it weren't for this army, the Bukuts would have been defeated long ago.
There is no doubt about this, and the Bukut commander admits it in his heart.
Therefore, it can be said that in this battle, the army that broke through made the greatest contribution. Without them, no Bukut would have had a definite eventual victory.
Obviously, the Kopyali should also know and know this.
But why would the Kopyali people do such a thing when they know this?
At the very least, when sending a surrender envoy to your side, you should also send one to the other side.
However, the Koparians did not do this at all, and they simply sent men to their side. As for the other side, the Kopyali did not send anyone there at all.
In this way, the problem inside is very big.
According to the rules of the Cuman tribe, whichever side surrenders can take over the loser's Yiqiē.
Its tribal population, wealth, and vassal tribes, among other things.
That is, with the surrender of the Kopyali to their side, then their own side received this right.
And the army that contributed the most to the war did not receive such rights.
Will this have any impact?
Questions like this have to make the commander of the Bukuts think deeply.
If it had been in the past, he probably wouldn't have thought about it so much.
However, the battle had already caused heavy losses to the Buku, and their military strength had been greatly reduced.
Therefore, even if the strength of the Imperial Army was only more than 4,000 people, it was enough to make the commander of the Bukut feel deeply jealous and threatened.
In particular, the combat effectiveness displayed by the Imperial Army made it feel a little frightened.
The battle between the Kopyali and the Imperial Army, the commander of the Bukuts also watched it one by one.
Although his side is still some distance away from the battlefield where the Koparian and the Imperial Army are fighting.
But because of the relatively high terrain where he is located, he can also see it from a distance.
The frenzied attacks of the Kobearians were of no use to the Imperial Army.
The attack, which looked like it was sending him to death, fell into the eyes of the Bukut commander.
At that time, he also thought about the position of himself and the Kopoyali, if he was in the position of the Kopoyali. How to deal with this army.
It's a pity that in the end, he racked his brains and didn't come up with any good solutions.
Because of the difference in the concept of the times, he simply did not know how to deal with the musket phalanx that only existed in the Napoleonic era and defeated him with troops with cold weapons.
Not to mention the display of muskets by the Imperial Army to kill enemies from a distance, as well as the power of copycat grenades, which stunned the Bukut commander and sent a chill through his heart.
If he was in the position of a Kopyali, he would have been able to do it no different from Kopyali.
It's nothing more than an offense in the same way. Same way of playing.
Of course, he will have the same experience as the Kopari, and heavy losses.
No wonder!
It is no wonder that the army of the Kopyali people was in chaos in a short period of time.
And, in the end, the great good form shì does not reexist zài.
Without this force to attack the rear of the Kopyali, it would have been impossible for the Bukuts to win this war.
You must know that at that time, the army of the Bukuts was already at the end of its strength under the fierce attack of the Kopyali. It's about to collapse at all, and I support those who don't want to go.
Therefore, if you want to say that the greatest hero of this battle must be the army that is now in the rear of the Kopari.
It was also their strength that shook the Kopyali people. The victory that they saw was about to come became a flash in the pan.
Well, the Kopyali people should also know this.
So, according to the normal Cuman rules, since you choose to surrender, you should choose the side that contributes the most. That is, the army that is now in its rear is.
But the Koparians did not do this, and only sent messengers to their own side.
That's a bit of a problem.
What are the Kopoyali people thinking?
What is the purpose of their doing this?
Could it be that they want to use this to divide the two sides?
At this time in the hearts of the commander of the Bukuts. The idea is very complex.
After all, anything can happen, and it cannot be ruled out that the Kopyali would take advantage of this to do something.
So, he's not well-behaved.
However, the messenger of the Koparians has arrived, and it is not good for him to waste too much thought and time here thinking about this matter.
After all, for now, he had to hurry up to meet the messenger of the Kopari, and discuss the many matters that would follow the armistice and surrender.
Therefore, this matter can only be put aside for the time being.
As for the Imperial Army, the commander of the Bukuts hurriedly sent someone over to inform him.
Hopefully, they'll get involved, and he'd like to see if he can get it together.
After all, in this battle, the Bukuts suffered a great loss of military strength, and they had already lost more than seventy percent of their troops before the war.
Although we have won now, the outlook is not so rosy.
You know, there's another Tataniel to face.
If he can bring that strange army to his aid, then he will not be very passive towards the Tatanirs in the future.
So, sell it well, it's not too difficult to do.
Besides, this victory is also thanks to that strange army, isn't it?
So, it's normal to get them involved.
Exclusion is abnormal.
I watched as the army of Kopyali laid down their weapons and fell on the sand one by one. Not far away, the Imperial Army phalanx still maintained its formation.
Zhang Xiao, who was in the center of the phalanx, had a whispered discussion with a group of officers.
"The Kopoyali did not choose us, it seems that they chose to surrender to the Bukuts. As for the rules of Cuman, Fariyah told me that now the Bukuts have absolute control over the defeated side, and we have nothing. ”
As soon as Zhang Xiao's words came out, the surrounding officers showed indignant expressions on their faces one by one.
Yes, the Imperial Army contributed the most in this battle, and if it weren't for them, the Bukuts would have been beaten long ago.
But now, with the choice of surrender of the Kopyali people, it is not the side of the Imperial Army that has gained the most.
Therefore, it is no wonder that the officers of the Imperial Army are so angry.
Whoever contributes doesn't get any benefit, and if you think about it, you'll have an idea, right?
Seeing the expressions of the officers under him, Zhang Xiao smiled disapprerovantly, and then looked at the officers and said, "You don't need to have such expressions, in fact, the rules of the Cuman people are obeyed by the Cumans, what does this have to do with us." I believe that as long as the fist is big, then it should be ours or ours in the end, right? ”
When Zhang Xiao said this, all the officers laughed.
Yes, the fist-sized truth in this world is really like that.
Therefore, let the tribes living here abide by the rules of the Cuman region.
The Imperial Army doesn't have to follow this rule at all, as long as the Imperial Army is strong, then in the end, what should be obtained should still be obtained.
"General, what do we do next? Now that the battle is over, the Kopoyali have also chosen to surrender to the Bukuts. Even if we get involved, it's impossible to get a bigger good. After all, the losses of the Bukuts are not small, and they will definitely use the interests of the Kopyali to make up for their losses. ”
The adjutant beside Zhang Xiao asked.
"Let's go, let's go! I have already asked Fariyah to go to the territory of the Kopari, and since the battle here is over, let's go to the Kopari's territory now, and use practical actions to obtain the benefits we deserve. (To be continued......)
