"Next year's big battle may be a tough battle, and we need special siege heroes."

Chu Tian realized the difficulty of besieging the city.

Wokotai and Yelu Dashi had Xiangyang cannons and a large number of other siege equipment, and it took nearly three months to almost capture Luntai City.

This time to attack Mobei or the Ili River Valley, Chu Tian thought that he needed a special siege hero.

Le Yi can provide bonuses for siege troops, but not for siege equipment, if there is a special hero that can provide bonuses for siege equipment, then you can increase the destructive power of siege equipment.

"The order returns to the Guannai, the Lord's Mansion recruits special heroes, and anyone who has research on siege equipment can be reused."

Chutian sent people back to Xuzhou and other places to issue a recruitment order, specifically looking for talents who could provide bonuses for siege equipment.

There must be such talents, but the size of the siege equipment is just improved.

According to the lords of the Persian Empire and the Arab Empire, in the Ilkhanate, among the subordinates of Tulei, there is a military general who is extremely good at siege, which can not only provide bonuses to siege troops, but also provide bonuses to siege equipment.

The city defenses built by Arab craftsmen were as weak as paper in the face of the siege troops led by them.

A powerful siege general is undoubtedly fatal to the defenders.

This also makes Chutian attach importance to the excavation of special talents in this area.

After the new recruitment order is issued, as for whether there are people who are willing to take the bait, then it depends on whether there are talents in this area in the territory.

In the school field of Luntai City, Catherine's subordinate Harar competed with Chutian's guard Dian Wei, and fought hand-to-hand with his strong body, fist to flesh. Harald, as the king of powerful Viking warriors, also showed amazing force.

According to Catherine, Viking warriors have the "Berserk" trait, and when they enter a berserk state, their strength increases.

The Varangian Guard of Harald, with great origins, was the Praetorian Guard of the Lost Empire, the Byzantine Empire (Eastern Roman) Emperor, equipped with the finest armor and sharpest weapons, and the formidable infantry of the Middle Ages.

The Byzantine civilization, because it is difficult to divide, belongs to the West Asian and European civilizations, so its heroes are scattered between the West Asian and European civilizations.

Harald was one of the commanders of the Varangian Guard, who served the Byzantine Empire.

If you let this Viking warrior get caught in the enemy formation, and then turn on the berserk effect, it is estimated that all the enemies in front of you will be flattened.

However, the Berserk trait also has a weakness, which is that it is easy to attack indiscriminately.

In other words, this Viking rage is a barrel of dynamite in the age of cold weapons......

Catherine had Poye cavalry, Cossack cavalry, Polish hussars, Viking Tomahawk Infantry (Varangian Guard) and other units under her command, and if she were her enemy, it would undoubtedly be quite a headache, after all, not many people were willing to engage the furious Viking Tomahawk infantry.

Chutian still informed Summer Liang, Mulan, Joan of Arc and others about Catherine.

"I knew she wasn't just here to join forces, or she wouldn't have brought that Peter here."

Xia Liang saw through Catherina's careful thinking, if he just came to attack Temujin and the Golden Horde jointly with the Han Empire, then there was no need to bring the little duke at all.

"I don't like that woman."

Mulan also expressed her opinion.

Joan of Arc saw that her two sisters had already expressed their positions, so she could only choose to take sides.

"However, as long as she doesn't move into the Lord's Palace, I'll turn a blind eye, and that little duke, what are you going to do?"

Summers are cool and aggressive.

At present, Mulan has a daughter, and Chu Tian has two sons, if he fights for power, then Chu Wu's position may not be stable enough.

"The petty duke of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, of course, inherited the territory of the Grand Duchy of Moscow. On the side of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was still Wu'er. ”

Chu Tian can still figure out the severity.

The territory laid by Catherine has little to do with him.

"Hmph...... "Xia Liang was slightly satisfied, but then his eyes changed a little, "Huo An's sister seems to have some thoughts about you." ”

“……”

"If the territory of the Western Regions Protectorate and the Grand Duchy of Moscow is taken over through marriage and added together with our territory, then wouldn't our territory be greater than the territory of Temujin and the Three Great Khanates?"

In the summer, I began to think about a larger layout.

In general, the expansion of territory through marriage was a means of Western aristocracy, such as the famous European Habsburgs, who relied almost on their lower body to unify Europe......

However, it does not mean that the East cannot use such special means to conquer the world.

"Stop ......"

Chu Tian thought that his body could not bear it.

If you annex a place, you have to marry once, who can withstand this......

Chutian ordered the government in Xuzhou and other places to recruit siege talents, and at the same time, various families and talents could recommend relevant talents.

The talents of the late Han Dynasty mainly came from the families, and some of the families may be able to discover hidden or reclusive talents.

Lu Su was merging the states at this time, recruiting soldiers and horses for Yue Fei's merging state army.

The Invincible Legion was severely damaged by the loyal and filial piety army of the monk Wanyan Chen, so he recruited wolf horsemen in Bingzhou to supplement the losses of the Invincible Legion.

"Talent for siege machines."

When Lu Su heard this, he thought of someone.

"I don't know where he is at this moment."

Lu Su sent a servant to the Huainan region.

In Ping'a County, Huainan, a taxi who took refuge in Lujiang went to his hometown.

Since the last battle of Hefei, no major war broke out in the Huainan area, and it was calm.

A carriage came from Shouchun City, the new seat of Jiujiang County, and came to visit.

"Lu Zijing, please let me go? Great generals need siege talents, and I have some experience with trebuchets. ”

When Liu Ye learned that Lu Su had sent someone to invite him out of the mountain, he couldn't help but feel a little touched, and he wanted to go out of the mountain.

Chu Tian has climbed to the position of the general and prince of the Han Empire, and it is basically easy to recruit a person from a family in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, unless the other party does not agree with him.

"Go back and tell your master, and I'll go and see him." Lu Zijing and I haven't met for a long time. ”

Liu Ye thought that it was Lu Su's invitation, so he immediately prepared to leave.

I heard that because Lu Su took the initiative to go to Chutian in the early days, he now has a very high status in Chutian's camp and can serve as a deputy military advisor.

Luntai City, the Seljuk Sultan, the Persian lord, and the Arab lord, after confirming the simultaneous attack on Temujin's forces with the lords of the Han Empire, prepared to return to their respective territories.

Ardashir, the lord of the Persian Empire, is followed by the Persian Empire's top unique unit, the Holy Meteor Cavalry.

This kind of cavalry, like the loyal and filial army, will fight until the death, and it is a high-level equipped cavalry, with amazing destructive power, which can destroy all enemies encountered in front of you.

Ardashir brought such a small group of cavalry, probably to show his strength to his temporary allies, and prove that the Persian Empire was capable of cooperating with the rest of the empire.

In addition to the Saintfall Cavalry, there is also a masked undead infantry that serves as Ardashir's bodyguard.

Obviously, the first lord of the Persian Empire in front of him, like Chu Tian, can already recruit the eighth-order and ninth-order characteristic troops of their respective civilizations.

The eighth-order and ninth-order special troops are already the ace legions used for decisive battles on the battlefield.

During the Third National War, a major war broke out between the Han Empire and the Persian Empire, and Ardashir had not yet been able to recruit the Holy Fall Cavalry, but in Luntai City, the princes of the Han Empire could have a quick glimpse of the momentum of the Holy Fall Cavalry.

It is precisely because of the possession of the Holy Fall cavalry and the undead army that the generals of the Ilkhanate, such as Tuolei and Hulegu, will throw rat bogeys.

If Ardashir had had such destructive mounted cavalry in the Third War, perhaps the result would have been very different.

"I hope that after this cooperation, we will not become enemies."

Chu Tian was somewhat wary of the Holy Fall cavalry of the Second Persian Empire (Empire of Rest).

As a representative class of Persian civilization, the Holy Fall Cavalry has the same destructive power as the Loyal Filial Army, but the number is more than that of the Loyal Filial Army, and the upper limit of the number is about 10,000.

After all, the Persian civilization is also an extremely ancient civilization, which has experienced several imperial periods, and each imperial period has different elite troops, somewhat similar to the Qin, Han, Song and Ming dynasties, but the population of the Persian civilization is smaller.

"No, we will definitely become enemies in the future." Unexpectedly, Ardashir, the first lord of the Persian Empire, bluntly said, "Destroy the Ilkhanate, the Chagatai Khanate, our spheres of influence border, and sooner or later a conflict will break out." ”

"Let's talk about it after the destruction of the Ilkhanate and the Chagatai Khanate."

Chutian even doubted that the Persian Empire and the Arab Empire could work together to eliminate the Ilkhanate.

The Arab Empire, it seems, is reluctant to contribute, wanting the Persian Empire to consume the Ilkhanate and then reap the benefits.

The relationship between the five major civilization alliances is quite complicated.

The lords of the Persian Empire led a small group of Holy Fall cavalry and undead troops into the teleportation array, and then left Luntai City.

The lords of the Arab Empire led a group of Mamluk warriors, saluted Chu Tian and the others, and then left.

"When the ice and snow melt, I hope that the Western Regions Protectorate can send troops as agreed, otherwise there will only be the cavalry of our Seljuk Empire, and we may be defeated by Chagatai again and the whole army will be annihilated."

The Sultan of the Seljuk Empire, before leaving, repeatedly confirmed that Hoan would send troops to help.

His last ally, the Sultan of Khorezm, had been captured and killed alive by Chagatai, and he did not want Hoan to release his pigeons when the time came......

"Although we are enemies, the enemies of our enemies are friends, please believe me, Tugril Sultan, the Protectorate of the Western Regions will win or lose with you by relatively fair means, and will not abandon allies."

Hoan assured the Sultan of Tugril.

"Beware of the Mughal Empire and the Kushan Empire in India."

Chutian didn't know what the Mughal Empire in India and the Kushan Empire between Central and South Asia were doing at this time.

The Mughal Empire of India was the only empire whose population could be on an equal footing with the Han Empire.

The Han Empire's internal war was too fierce, and the war with Temujin's forces broke out, so the population declined, while the Mughal Empire in India was relatively under relatively little pressure in this national war.

Chu Tian was always wary of this neighbor of the Han Empire.
