Chapter 83: The flames of war are rekindled, and the bloody battle of Asen City is fierce

Chapter 83 The war is rekindled, and there is a bloody battle in Asen City

After several setbacks, although the Persian Ming Sect recovered six Holy Flame Orders from the Central Plains, it was never able to get back the "Great Shift" mental method. This is indeed the biggest knot in their hearts that they have been unable to let go of for a long time, and they have never thought of giving up. Later, the saint Dai Qisi was sent to the Central Plains Ming Sect, and she also had this intention......

Now, the Kipchak Khanate is ready to move, intending to take the initiative to provoke a war, and it is also not without the opportunity to take down Xie Wuji and other high-level leaders of the Central Plains Mingjiao, and use this to coerce the Central Plains Mingjiao to hand over the "Great Shift" The purpose exists.

What even Xie Wuji didn't know was that after hundreds of years of development, the status and power of the Persian Ming Religion in the Kipchak Khanate were deeply rooted, and it was by no means just the only religion, or even the state religion.

In the Kipchak Khanate, some of the loyal ministers who held great power were themselves held by the Persian Ming Sect King Baoshu; What's more, even a few queens are all from the Persian Ming Sect. It can be said that the Persian Ming religion controlled half of the Kipchak Khanate, or even all of it!

And just when Xie Wuji and others were talking about the secrets of the Persian Ming Sect, the headquarters of the Persian Ming Sect, which was far away in the capital of the Kipchak Khanate, the Persian Ming Sect, and the high-ranking officials of the Persian Ming Sect had already made a decision to send troops to attack the Chagatai Khanate.

Three days later, when Xie Wuji and others were still mobilizing troops and horses and actively preparing for war, they unexpectedly received the news that the army of the Kipchak Khanate was pressing the border...... The 50,000-strong army of the Kipchak Khanate, in 15 days, will arrive at the border town of the Chagatai Khanate.

Hearing this urgent military situation, Xie Wuji and the others gasped, they really didn't expect the Kipchak Khanate to move so quickly.

After a short consultation, Xie Wuji first ordered all the places near Asen City to reinforce Asen City as quickly as possible, asking them to hold Asen City before the arrival of the army; He also ordered Chang Yuchun to be the vanguard, commanding 5,000 troops, and quickly reinforcing Asen City; Xu Da was then ordered to be the commander of the Chinese army, commanding an army of 50,000 and marching into Asen City; Deng Youde led 10,000 troops, responsible for grain, grass and strategic materials; Liu Ji sat in Tashbali City and coordinated the overall situation.

As for Xie Wuji, he and Zhuang Zheng and other five banner envoys will lead the elite of the 1,000 and 5 elements of the banner to rush to Asen City in the starry night, and be sure to arrive before the arrival of the army of the Kipchak Khanate.

Originally, Zhang Cuishan and his wife also wanted to act together with Xie Wuji and the others, but considering that the couple had just arrived in the Western Regions, many things were not familiar with them, not to mention that Tash Bali City also needed a master to take charge, so they let the two stay.

Thirteen days later, Xie Wuji and the others rushed to Asen City, but they didn't care about their exhaustion, so they immediately threw themselves into the defense of Asen City.

At this time, the situation in Asen City is really not good, in this short half a month, there are only more than 10,000 troops that can be gathered, and nearly half of them are regular garrison troops in nearby places, and they have never experienced any big battles. Even if you add the elite of the 1,000 Five Elements Banner brought by Xie Wuji, it is just a drop in the bucket, and I am afraid it will be difficult to resist the tidal wave of the 50,000 troops of the Kipchak Khanate.

What's more, although the city of Asen was an important border town of the Chagatai Khanate, it was more of a distribution center for commerce and trade, rather than a military powerhouse, not to mention the short city walls, and the defense system was also very rudimentary.

The only thing that made Xie Wuji's heart feel a little relieved was that there were still many Five Elements Banner Sect members in Asen City at this time, they were all armed with some "thaumaturgy", and they thought that under the command of Zhuang Zheng and the other five banner envoys, they would definitely be able to surprise the army of the Kipchak Khanate......

And so another day passed, and there was only one day left before the arrival of the 50,000-strong army of the Kipchak Khanate. That night, Xie Wuji personally led the elite of the 1,000 Five Elements Banner he brought with him, and disappeared into the vast night......

On the afternoon of the second day, the 50,000 troops of the Kipchak Khanate approached the city of Asen, but they did not rush to attack the city, and immediately began to camp in an orderly manner. Just looking at the rigorous and orderly layout of their camp, it did not give Xie Wuji's side any opportunity to steal the camp.

"Uh......h "In the early morning of the next day, as soon as the sky was dark, the desolate sound of the horn had already sounded in the sky, and the 50,000 troops of the Kipchak Khanate were arrayed under the city of Asen, which really gave people the power of black clouds crushing the city.......

On the low city wall of Asen City, Zhuang Zheng and other five flag-bearers were all present, looking at the 50,000 Kipchak Khanate army under the city, their brows became more and more wrinkled, knowing that today would be a bitter battle.

"Knock knock...... Knock knock knock ......" The rumbling war drums sounded, and thousands of soldiers of the Kipchak Khanate, dressed in armor and holding high large shields, approached the city of Asen. There was also an overwhelming rain of arrows, and the raindrops generally shot into the city of Asen, so that the defenders of Asen City could not raise their heads.

By the time the Kipchak Khanate's arrows weakened, the thousands of Kipchak Khanate soldiers had already stormed the walls of the city of Asen, striking the gates with huge logs while erecting ladders to climb the city and rushing to the top of the city.

"Put!" Wen Cangsong shouted. The defenders of the city immediately threw the huge logs that had been prepared early in the morning from the city wall, and smashed the soldiers of the Kipchak Khanate who were besieging the city to the ground, and countless people were killed and many more were seriously injured.

At this point, the offensive of the army of the Kipchak Khanate was broken, and the morale was even more plummeting, and it was difficult to organize an effective offensive. The generals who commanded the siege had no choice but to lead the remnants of the sergeants back to their own positions.

The giant wooden flag is good at making giant trees, ranging from a few to ten people, carrying a giant tree, each giant tree has a weight of hundreds or thousands of catties, and the wood is equipped with an iron hook, each person holds an iron hook, throws the giant tree, and smashes the enemy to death. This is just a normal thing, and if you are defending the city like this, it will be easier for the giant tree to throw.

The commander of the army of the Kipchak Khanate, his face was pale, and he gritted his teeth in anger. He really didn't expect that a small Assen City would have such a thorough defensive preparation. But how did he know that these were only prepared by Zhuang Zheng and the five of them day and night, and if he gave Zhuang Zheng and the five of them more time to arrange, it would be even more of a headache for him.

"Attack again!" The commander of the army of the Kipchak Khanate gave a deep order, and immediately thousands of troops broke away from their own positions and rushed to the city of Asen under the cover of a rain of arrows like flying locusts.

In front of the gates of Asen City, the giant trees that besieged the city were still intact; Even the siege ladder erected by the city wall has not been knocked down, and I don't know what the defenders of Asen City are doing? This also made it easier for the thousands of Kipchak Khanate soldiers in this formation, picking up huge logs and continuing to storm the city gates, climbing the siege ladders to continue to storm the city walls......

"Kill! Capture Asen City and kill all the Han dogs in the city...... "The general who commanded the siege didn't think much about it, but felt that there would be a great credit to him.
