Chapter 1429: Arabian Storm (One Hundred)
At this time, the battle has reached its final moment. Therefore, the battle has become very fierce and even more brutal.
Both the Bukuts and the Kopyali knew very well that this battle was related to their future survival, so when they faced this cruelty, they knew that they would be greatly damaged, but they could only launch a charge without regrets.
Yes, both the Bukuts and the Kopyali charged, especially since the Bukuts were no longer passively defending against beatings, but launched one of the few counterattacks in the later period.
At this moment, it caused a lot of casualties to the Kopyali people.
Because the Kopyali people never imagined that when they launched an all-army attack, the Bukuts, who had been in a passive defensive posture in the later stage, actually launched a counterattack charge.
Since this was not expected at all, the Kopyali suffered great losses.
First, the Bukuts gathered all the remaining archers and lined up on the central side of the battle formation before launching a counterattack.
Subsequently, the commander of the Bukuts, who withdrew the troops in front, created the illusion of a rout.
The Kopyali knew that this was an enemy ploy, so many troops launched a pursuit.
Unexpectedly, the retreating Bukut troops suddenly split to the sides, revealing the archers that had been prepared. The Koparians who were in pursuit were unlucky, and they were shot by arrows and fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, the Bukut archers, throwing their bows and drawing their swords, rushed forward. While the Kopoari were still dizzy, they started a fierce hand-to-hand fight with them.
At the same time, the Bukut troops were withdrawn to the flanks. At this time, the Hui army also began to attack.
This style of play of the Bukuts has caused the Kopoyali to lose a lot of soldiers and horses. For a time, the pursuing Kopoyali troops fell into a bitter battle.
And, because of the periphery of the left flank of the Kopyaries, there were troops of Fariyah that cruised. She led her troops to the left flank of the Kopyali people, bringing a lot of threat and pressure.
So. The left flank of the Kopyali had no way to reinforce the battlefield at this time.
There was not much pressure on the right flank, but it was entangled by the Bukut troops. There is no way to come and reinforce either.
It can be said that the Kopyali were in a hurry to pursue the Bukuts, and instead gave the other side an opportunity to inflict heavy losses on their own troops.
And the Bukuts seem to have taken advantage of this mentality of the Kopoyali and dealt them a heavy blow.
Although it temporarily gave the Kopari people a heavy blow. But their overall strength is still a little stronger than that of the Bukuts.
After all. In this combat battle, the Kopoyali people set their tactics early. And a trap was implemented for the Bukuts, so that they were fooled and suffered a lot of losses.
So, now even if the Bukuts counterattack, it will be difficult to expand their gains.
Not to mention the complete collapse of the Kopyali people.
In fact, now both the Bukuts and the Kopoyali are exhausted. Especially on the side of the Bukuts, it is even more obvious.
The Bukuts were able to fight until now. I have to say that their will is really tenacious.
If you could look down from the sky, you wouldn't see the current battle circle. It's a lot smaller than it was a few hours ago.
After all, after a few hours of fighting, the forces of both of them have been reduced a lot, and basically more than half of the troops have disappeared from this battlefield.
Corpses, corpses everywhere.
In the sky, vultures are constantly flying and circling, and their shrill cries from time to time are very cheerful.
These birds probably know that when the humans below are done fighting, they can go down and enjoy the good food and the hearty food.
Throughout the course of human history, killing and war have always been inevitable.
In the animal world, there will be killing, but it is never as cruel as killing like humans.
It's rare for animals to gather hundreds of thousands and then fight each other.
Only human beings can make such a big movement.
It can be seen that in terms of cruelty, human beings are more ruthless than those carnivorous beasts.
"The generals, the Kopyali and the Bukuts are all entangled. It looks like they're waging a final showdown, because they've sent all their forces up. ”
Zhang Xiao's adjutant turned back to him and said.
Hearing this, Zhang Xiao smiled, and didn't pay attention to the enemies around him who were constantly blocking him, because those Kopoyali soldiers who launched a charge could not attack within fifty meters of the Imperial Army's phalanx.
"The plan of the Kopyali is very simple, they want to deal with the Bukuts on the opposite side at once, and then attack us in the return army. Because in the eyes of the Kopoari commander, we are not a threat, at most we are just a-stirring stick. “
Zhang Xiao can basically guess the thoughts of the commander of the Kopoyali people.
Generally speaking, if you encounter such a thing as a commander, most of the choices you make will be the same as the Coparian commander.
Zhang Xiao thought about it for a while, and it was not difficult to come up with such a guess.
"Hey, hey! That's just right, and I don't really want that commander to think of us as enemies. And he ordered the whole army to go out and fight a decisive battle with the Bukuts, then both the Bukuts and the Kopoyali would have a greater loss of strength, which is exactly what I need. ”
The smile on Zhang Xiao's face was very strong, because he was going along with his plan.
Now, most of the troops of the Bukuts and Kopyali have been lost.
Originally, when the two sides started the war, the number of troops on each side exceeded 100,000.
But now, the number of troops on both sides of the group, combined, may not be 100,000.
Such a large casualty shows their military strength. How much of an impact.
More importantly, the main purpose of this battle between the Bukuts and Kopyali was to take advantage of the Tatanirs' military strength. Defeat the strongest enemies.
Therefore, both of them dispatched their own strongest troops. And brought out all the troops they were able to control.
That is, after such a big battle, the military strength of the Bukuts and Kopyali was consumed by more than half.
Now they are. When it comes to military power, even the Tatanils are incomparable.
And the situation is getting worse because of both of them so far. None of them have yet decided the winner.
While the fighting continued, the casualties of their troops continued to grow.
And Zhang Xiao also deliberately slowed down the speed of the attack, so that the Bukuts and Kopoyali people could suffer as many casualties as possible.
Although. Doing so will kill a lot of people. But Zhang Xiao didn't care at all.
For him, whether the soldiers of the two tribes died or not had something to do with him.
And, from his point of view, of course, the more people from the two tribes die, the better. This will be beneficial to him, and to the empire's capture of Cuman.
Of course, it would be wrong to say that the entire army of Kopyali was pressed and went to fight the Bukuts.
Because of Zhang Xiao, they are still making waves behind the Kopyali people. Therefore, the Kopyali still divided some troops to block them.
As for defeating Zhang Xiao, they were. Now the commander of the Kopyali no longer has this illusion.
The idea he wanted was that as long as he could resist or drag Zhang Xiao and them. Try to buy time for your side so that he can defeat the Bukuts on the opposite side.
Therefore, it was the elite troops of the Kopyali who went to the decisive battle with the Bukuts. He hopes to defeat the Bukuts as quickly as possible and salvage the disadvantaged situation that has arisen.
Zhang Xiao was also happy to let both sides have more casualties, so he deliberately slowed down the offensive, creating the illusion that he was being dragged back.
His approach made the Kopyali commanders who were fighting the Bukuts in front of him have a delusion.
He really thought that the enemy behind was dragged and that he had some time here.
Therefore, with his troops, the offensive against the Bukuts became even more fierce.
And the Bukut people also knew that today's battle was related to the life and death of themselves, the tribe and their relatives in the tribe, so they also broke out one by one with a strong fighting spirit.
Therefore, the Bukuts, who were at a disadvantage, actually withstood the attack of the Kopyali and fought a scorching battle with them.
"Hey, hey! Today, whether the Bukuts have won or the Kopyali have won, their strength has been greatly depleted. The future overlord of the Cumans, they are no longer qualified to fight for it. ”
By this time, Zhang Xiao had already made an assertion.
Basically, after this battle, the Bukuts and Kopoyali officially withdrew from the Cuman arena.
"Well, now that we think about it, whose vassal tribe would be better for us to annex after this battle is over?" , Zhang Xiao raised his hand and stroked his smooth chin, and then showed a contemplative expression.
"General, do you need to talk about this? Of course, it's the Kopoarian tribe and their vassals, because you can't let the Kopoari achieve this victory, can you? ”
The adjutant beside him answered at this time and said Zhang Xiao's true thoughts.
"You're smart." , Zhang Xiao haha. "Yes, I also think it's better to choose the tribe of the Kopoari people and the vassal tribes under their command."
"Like you said, there's no way I'm going to let the Kopyali win this." Tell Fariyah to get her out of the battlefield and go to the territory of the Kopoari to annex their vassal tribes.
Zhang Xiao ordered the adjutant again.
After saying that, he set his eyes on the battlefield in the distance, and a cruel expression appeared on his face.
Hum!
In response to this battle, the Kopyali brought all their troops out, and now their territory must be empty.
Although the more than 1,000 people of Fariyah are not very many, they are enough for those in the territory of the Kopari, who are empty of troops. (To be continued......)
