Chapter 645: The Middle Route Army That Decided the Victory
"Soon, we will arrive in Mobei Dragon City."
A Liao military general respectfully reported to Xiao Xuan.
Xiao Xuan personally pulled his bow and shot the deer, his waist strength was amazing, and a streamer shot out, and the elk fell in response.
The cavalry of the Leather Room Army stepped forward to pick up the elk that had been shot, and Xiao Xuan held the reins.
"How much longer?"
"Less than ten days."
"Hopefully, this opponent won't let us down."
Xiao Xuan withdrew his bow and arrows and returned to the leather room army.
As the elite of the Liao State, the leather room army is not inferior in combat power.
Timur commanded the remnants of the cowardly Xue army, but his eyes were focused on the Liao Pi Room army from time to time.
Temujin distributed 2,500 cowardly Xue troops to Timur and let Timur play freely, but Timur was a little complacent, wanting to use 2,500 cowardly Xue troops to earn more military exploits and even earn other heroes.
Exactly like Chu Tian's speculation, this coalition army formed by five legendary heroes of the emperor level replenished a city on the way, and then marched to Mobei Longcheng, intending to encircle the Han army's middle route army with Subutai and Muhuali, and completely crush the Han army's attempt to expedition to the Mongol Empire.
For the Mongol Empire, this was an ambitious plan, as long as the Han Empire's three-way expeditionary force was defeated in a row, the Han Empire would not dare to act rashly and turn to the defensive in the next five years.
A total of about 2 million soldiers and horses from both sides fought on the Mobei Plateau.
"Timur...... The Great Khan decided to reuse him because of his talent? But his talents, as well as his ambitions. ”
Batu, as a true commander-in-chief, realized that beneath the docile surface of the young Timur was an unwilling ambition.
He had already learned that Timur had requested a marriage with Xiao Xuan of Liao, and the coveting of beauty may be on the one hand, and on the other hand, it may be that Xiao Xuan has auxiliary characteristics and belongs to the same special "auxiliary" heroes as Sun Bin and Cao Di.
Support heroes are even rarer than legion-strengthened generals, let alone support heroes of Xiao Sui's level.
Timur's purpose of wanting to get Xiao Xuan is probably not just as simple as coveting beauty.
Batu was vaguely aware of Timur's ambitions, but at the moment of the great enemy, he, like Temujin, Jebe and others, still turned a blind eye even though he knew that Timur was desperately climbing upwards, from a thousand households to the position of Si Ti Xue.
If the Mongol Empire was destroyed by the Han Empire, then, even on defense of Timur, the Mongol Empire would not have done anything good.
"Lord Batu, Lord Subutai requests to speed up reinforcements, the middle route army of the Han Empire has begun to attack Mobei Dragon City!"
Tan Ma Chi reported to Batu as the coach as soon as possible.
The Han Empire's Middle Route Army intends to capture Mobei Dragon City and obtain reinforcements from elsewhere before the arrival of the Five Emperors Alliance!
"Once the Han army obtains a large city, then it will be a disaster for Mobei to open the teleportation array, and their huge national strength will play a role, and we can't consume it. Speed up the march! ”
Batu urged the coalition forces and quickly approached in the direction of Mobei Dragon City.
The Mongol Empire relied on the Gobi in Mobei, the national strength of the Han Empire was difficult to play, and the existence of the teleportation array was unfavorable to the Mongol Empire, which had the advantage of mobility!
"The Han army has already begun to attack Mobei Dragon City? They thought they could capture Mobei Dragon City in ten days? ”
Xiao Xuan's Liao army couldn't help but be surprised to learn that the commander of the Han army had decided to forcibly capture Mobei Longcheng before the arrival of reinforcements from the Mongol Empire.
According to the intelligence, the person who commanded the middle route army of the Han army should be Chu Tian, the general of the Han Empire.
"Chu Zimou ......"
Xiao Xuan silently recited the name.
The Liao State has not yet had any intersection with the Chutian forces, and Chutian even turned a blind eye to the Liao State's attack on Liaodong City.
Chu Tian's principle is very simple, the relationship between the Western Regions Protectorate and him is close, so he has to send troops to save him, and the situation in Liaodong has nothing to do with him for the time being, so he watches from the sidelines.
The expedition to Mobei was because the Mongol Empire threatened Monan, Hetao, Youzhou and other places in Chutian, so this threat must be erased.
If Liao Guo does not take the initiative to find him, then he will ignore Liao Guo's love.
On the contrary, if the Liao State takes the initiative to find trouble, then it does not mind cleaning up the remnants of the Liao State.
"The great general of the Han Empire, as long as I kill him, then I can not only be crowned king by the Great Khan, but also get Xiao Xuan ...... smoothly"
Timur was full of desire to kill Chutian.
To solve the greatest enemy for Temujin, Temujin will definitely reward him with land and population, even if he becomes king, it will be a breeze.
"How does the army from the Central Plains compare with the army from Liaodong? Could it be that the army of the Central Plains is more brave and good at fighting? ”
Wanyan Aguda won a small victory in the battle with Mingguan because Murong Ba's position was a little ambiguous, and finally raised his eyebrows.
He set his sights on the Central Plains army of Chutian.
At present, Chu Tian's sphere of influence is not only the Central Plains, but he is still regarded as a prince of the Central Plains.
The war eagle of Tanma Chi has a bird's-eye view from the air, and below, four soldiers and horses marched in the direction of Mobei, the cowardly Xue army, the eldest son army, the kidnapping horse, the leather room army, and various servant armies, and other elite troops that are not named, there are Jin Ge iron horses, and they swallow thousands of miles like tigers!
"Crassus, you and Jebel, guard Hala and Lin."
"Yes, Great Khan ......"
The Roman hero Crassus was drawn into the great war between the Han and Mongol empires, and if Hala and Lin were to be defeated, he would be put in a cowhide bag by Temujin and trampled by ten thousand horses.
"Are you scared? Heroes from Rome, just such guts? ”
Temujin glared at Crassus, causing Crassus to sweat.
Crassus hurriedly replied: "Crassus is willing to follow the Great Khan in life and death, and will never betray." ”
"Jebel, this city will be handed over to you, I and everyone will go to resist the enemy, this time it is a matter of life and death."
Temujin didn't care much about the increasingly timid Crassus, and he gave Jebe the task of guarding Hala and Rin.
"As long as we stick to it until August, with my points, we can bounce back."
Temujin remained confident in the face of the aggressive offensive of the Han army.
In addition to the traditional imperial civilization camp, there is also a barbarian civilization camp, that is, each barbarian civilization also has its own score leaderboard, and the rewards are calculated separately from the traditional imperial civilization camp.
Temujin launched a series of major wars with the Western Regions Protectorate, Central Asian civilizations, and West Asian civilizations, ranking first in the barbarian camp.
The Mongol Empire was calculated separately from several khanates, and the Golden Horde and the Ilkhanate divided a lot of Temujin's points, but it did not affect Temujin's position in the first place in the barbarian camp.
The battles of generals such as Subutai, Jebe, Muhuali, and Ali Hague in Yumen Pass, Western Regions, Hetao, and Monan earned Temujin a large number of points.
Chu Tian was desperate, and so was Temujin, the two sides were like red-eyed gamblers, constantly increasing their chips, trying to consume each other.
Jebe realized that this war was an unprecedented crisis for the Mongol Empire: "Jebe was willing to use his life to defend Hala and Lin for the Great Khan. ”
"If you can't defend, then you break through and go to Ogkotai. At that time, you don't have to come to me, because I may have died in battle. ”
Temujin glanced at the Mongolian generals in front of him: "The rest of the people, follow me out of the city and contain the enemy army!" ”
To the south of Hala and Lin Cheng, the left army of Lao Qin, Yue Fei, and Prince Yan appeared, and unlike the targeted right route army, they still advanced according to the established plan, similar to the progress of the middle route army, and cooperated with the middle route army to launch an offensive against Hala and Lin at the same time!
Even if it was Temujin himself who was blocking them in front of them, Lao Qin, Yue Fei, Prince Yan and others were not afraid.
The threat posed by Temujin alone was not as great as the threat posed by the Eastern Route Army facing five emperor-level enemies.
"Mongol army spotted ahead!"
"Stop the march! Qin Ruishi, array, wind! ”
Wang Jian was in the Chinese army, drew his sword, and ordered Qin Ruishi to assemble into a strict phalanx.
Tens of thousands of Qin Ruishi veterans and recruits were mobilized to form a dense infantry phalanx.
The phalanx is the best tactic for infantry to deal with cavalry in the era of cold weapons.
"Back the army, prepare for war!"
Yue Fei ordered that 30,000 Yue family troops were arrayed.
100,000 merge state troops, as well as Zhang Liao's majestic army.
Wen Yang and Yu She, armed with guns, confronted the Mongol army, and their robes hunted and fluttered in the wind.
Hu Sanniang followed Zhang Liao, with two sabers hanging from her waist, and she was heroic.
As for the invincible legion, stay and annex the state to guard against the Tuoba Xianbei tribe.
Li Mu, Di Qing, Gongsun Zhan, and Zhao Kuo temporarily accepted Prince Yan's moderation, and Zhao Biancai, Song Dianqian, Baima Yicong, and Mo Nan cavalry were lined up, and all the cavalry were neat. Zhao Kuo followed Li Mu, and Li Mu could be said to be his teacher.
The lineup of the left army made Temujin on the opposite side a little silent.
The combat power of each expeditionary force was strong enough, and even the right-hand army, which had been heavily damaged, was still not annihilated by the Five Emperors Alliance, but retreated to the fishing sea for supplies.
"Avoid without fighting."
Temujin chose to evade and contain the Left Army, and he was waiting for the Central Route Army to win, and then the Eastern Route Army and the Central Route Army came to join him and annihilate the Left Route Army in one fell swoop.
"How did Temujin's cavalry retreat?"
The Left Route Army, which was waiting for the battle, was ready to fight Temujin to the death, but Temujin withdrew from the battlefield, exposing Hala and Lin Cheng to the offensive of the Left Route Army, which surprised Lao Qin.
He suddenly thought of the Middle Route Army and the Right Route Army: "Could it be Chu Zimou, or something happened in Mingguan, and Temujin is waiting for reinforcements......"
Jia Xu, who accompanied the army, said: "Maybe we should send a support army to the middle route army to investigate." ”
Lao Qin thought for a moment: "Chu Zimou has a team of scout cavalry with us, let them try to contact Chu Zimou to see if the Middle Route Army needs reinforcements." If you need reinforcements, you can let Yue Fei or Li Mu go to the middle route army to support. I look at Temujin's soldiers and horses, and it seems that they are ...... Bravado. ”
