Chapter 458: The Empire Sends Troops
When the war horses of the Flying Tigers trampled on the corpses on the ground, they rushed to the handsome banner that had just fallen in one breath. They were surprised to find that Luo Zhen, the commander of the army of the Ma Huaishan Kingdom, had fallen to the ground and died. He had many holes on his body, and when he was dying, he had his back to the direction of the Flying Tigers, which showed that he was ready to flee at the last moment.
Jiang Tengjiao looked at the corpse on the ground and mocked contemptuously: "If you react slowly and don't turn around so quickly, maybe you will be praised by China as a great hero who is not afraid of danger and calmly faces death in the future!"
The commander's camp was suddenly overwhelmed, and the officers and soldiers of the Ma Huaishan Kingdom, who were struggling in front, saw this situation and lost their courage and momentum just now. The morale of the officers and soldiers of Black Cloud City was greatly boosted and their courage was doubled. They shouted loudly, and soon beat their opponents to the ground, throwing away their armor and crushing their armies. In less than a moment, the officers and soldiers of the Mahuaishan Kingdom threw away their weapons in pieces and fell to their knees. Some of the elephant cavalry and animal trainers shouted for the elephants to kneel on their front legs, indicating that they would give up resistance and be left to their disposal.
And Lin Yu, the commander of the capital who was leading 100,000 officers and soldiers of the Mahuaishan Kingdom to attack the second wall of Mingyang Fort, saw that the general trend had gone and could not be recovered, so he hurriedly commanded his subordinates to break out of the siege and flee in the direction of the Xuanwu Kingdom in the northwest.
Seeing this situation, Lin Xiaoshuang, who had been anxious and worried about the battle situation, let out a sigh of relief, and her eyes were black and she almost fainted. Although she is calm and resolute, she wants to do earth-shattering things, but after all, she is a little girl in her teens and has never seen such a big scene. In the face of such a thrilling, turbulent grand battle situation and a heavy responsibility on her shoulders, she felt that her little heart was a little unbearable.
Luo Ming was still calm. He ordered the officers and soldiers of Black Cloud City here to clean up the mess as soon as possible, and he himself led the members of the Flying Tigers to pursue the defeated troops of the Ma Huaishan Kingdom who had escaped.
The defeated army fled quickly. Luo Ming led the team to chase all the way, although tens of thousands of people were intercepted one after another, but in the end, tens of thousands of people still fled into Jinxiang County in the north. Luo Ming ignored the restrictions of the national border and tracked it all the way. When Lin Yu turned along the wide post road to Beiliu City and Furong Town in the northeast, Luo Ming still pursued relentlessly, and there was a great posture of not giving up until he was all captured.
These places are all empty camps, except for grain and grass, and various military supplies, there are only a few troops left behind, and Lin Yu was hoping that the troops left behind here could help him block the pursuing soldiers. But I didn't expect that the little left-behind troops left by the big battalion here couldn't stop the iron cavalry of the Flying Tigers at all. And the gates of the town are all open, and no one would have imagined that the army of Black Cloud City would be able to fight back and fight this side.
Lin Yu saw that everywhere the city gates were wide open, and the suspension bridges were placed safely (those suspension bridges were very heavy, and they couldn't be pulled up without a group of people spending a while. Most of the defenders at the drawbridge at the gate were not at their posts, but wandered around, because they did not think that it would be safe to be here. )
Luo Ming led the Flying Tigers to chase all the way to Furong Town, the northernmost point at the junction of the Northern Alliance and Black Cloud City. Lin Yu rushed into the east gate of Furong Town with the defeated soldiers, hoping that the officers and soldiers guarding the gate could help him, but he didn't expect those officers and soldiers who stayed behind to scatter in a hurry and run out long ago. He jumped down the street to the west gate. And the men of the gatekeepers of Simon were scattered as birds and beasts. He had no choice but to run along the post road in the direction of the capital Weiyang City. At this time, it was already the morning of the next day, it was the bright sun, and the defeated soldiers of the Xuanwu Kingdom who had been running for several hours were anxious one by one, hungry and thirsty, and suddenly saw the battle flags flying on the road ahead, swords and guns like snow, and the clothes and armor were distinct, and the officers and men of the brigade were neatly and neatly horizontal in the middle of the road. Lin Yu took a closer look, and it turned out that the army of the Afrans Kingdom had arrived.
The Avrean Empire was very concerned about the outcome of the war, and the general hope of the court was that it would be a very smooth clean-up operation. An army of more than 2 million men, and many of them were elite soldiers who were accustomed to battle, could not have lost? They had no reason not to think so, but the progress of the battle was much more than they expected.
The battle reports in front of them flew like snowflakes, but no one could see any good news. It lasted less than four days, and the three-way army was defeated one after another. Those famous generals who were accustomed to war were either killed in battle or captured. Incredible news kept coming, causing some strange arguments among the people in the streets and alleys: Luo Ming is a god, as long as he is there, no matter how many soldiers there are, it is impossible to defeat him.
Naturally, the ministers of the DPRK and China did not believe these arguments, but they were also deeply surprised by such an outcome. On the second day of the war, a minister proposed that the Avrean Empire must send troops as soon as possible to aid the front line that was about to collapse. The emperor immediately allowed the performance, and ordered Huo Zhenfei, the secretary of the military department, to immediately start handling it. At the same time, he issued an edict asking Gu Zhongxun, the king of the Northern Alliance Kingdom, to give active cooperation.
But the efficiency of work in ancient times is completely incomparable with today's. In the case of complete unpreparedness and extremely underdeveloped means of communication technology, there is no way for the so-called speed of fire to go anywhere.
After Huo Zhenfei received the holy decree, he immediately drafted an order, asking his subordinates to rush to Guquanzhou on the southern border with the Tiger Fu Horse to mobilize troops, and let Shi Hua Feng of the state immediately light up the military horses of his headquarters, and take the lead in rushing to the southern border of the Northern Alliance Kingdom as the vanguard of reinforcements. At the same time, Huo Zhenfei ordered the southern states of the empire to quickly prepare for war, and in his order, he gave detailed instructions on the men, horses, money and grain that the states should dispatch, as well as the place of assembly.
Since Gu Yun's so-called saving soldiers is like fighting fires, Gu Quanzhou Assassin Shi Hua Feng has also cleared the situation on the front line very much, and he is deeply afraid that after the war situation deteriorates rapidly, the imperial court will be angry with him for his untimely rescue. Therefore, he did not dare to slack off at all, and after receiving instructions, he immediately sent his subordinates to gather his forces everywhere. At midnight that day, he led a part of his men and horses to set off first, rushing to the area of Furong Town in the Northern Alliance. The troops who could not arrive in time ordered that they must speed up to catch up with him, and adopt the method of gathering men and horses while marching, so as not to delay time and affect the rescue operation.
Huawei's actions can already be described as vigorous and resolute, but Rao is so, and the rescue operation still has not achieved the expected goal. When the team of 50,000 people that Huawei Feng had pieced together along the way arrived at the outskirts of Furong Town the next morning, the war in Black Cloud City was over. He only encountered the defeat of tens of thousands of remnants led by Lin Yu, the capital of the Mahuaishan Kingdom.
Tens of thousands of people were chased and beaten by thousands of people, which may seem inconceivable to ordinary people. But Huawei Feng was not surprised, as soon as he saw the other party's flag and armor, he knew that he was on a big deal. He was a very calm person, and after containing Lin Yu's defeated soldiers and listening to him make a brief report, he did not rush to attack, but ordered his subordinates to immediately open their bows and arrows and prepare for an attack. Most of the troops he led were already equipped with equipment made of Xuanyu iron, and their strength was not weak, but out of prudence, he did not give the order to attack immediately. After all, what he is now facing is the "Flying Tigers," which are known as invincible in the world! Who would dare to rashly launch an attack under such circumstances?
