Chapter 566: Falling apart
Since the Turkic kings were attacked, the Linghui army began to launch a fierce attack on the Langtu Mountain.
The matter of Mingjin's withdrawal of troops never happened, and for three days in a row, Li Hao's army of commanders continued to rush the mountain in batches, forcing the king of Hadesaro to have to fight with him.
For three days, King Hadesa was so exhausted that he could barely hold on.
It was at this moment that Li Hao completely defeated the powerful financial resources of the Li Kingdom.
All kinds of siege weapons took turns to fight, and the catapults continued without a moment's pause, and one after another huge stones roared up and smashed towards Wolf Road Mountain. The Turks managed to smash a batch of catapults with their own catapults, and it didn't take long for the Linghui army to launch more catapults to continue the attack.
In this way, the pressure on the Turkic side immediately increased.
They were in the mountains, and all supplies had to be supplied by the Turkic kings from the back mountains, and it was very difficult to carry grain and grass in normal times, let alone carry large war equipment such as catapults. They don't have the same technology as the Lee Kingdom, and they can disassemble catapults into parts and put them together improvised before battle.
Although the supply route of the Linghui army was long, it was a smooth road, and compared to the Turks, it was too much better.
Gradually, in the high-intensity battle, the Turkic generals and soldiers gradually couldn't stand it, watching the boulders continue to fall from the sky, every day they lived in a state of mental tension, even if they were iron-beaten, they couldn't last too long.
It was also at this moment that King Hadesaro finally knew that in the previous battle between the two sides, the Linghui Army did not use all its strength, and it was just a small fight.
As the Turkic army continued to suffer casualties, the dense forests at the foot of the Wolf Road Mountain were about to be flattened by rocks. The dense forest at the foot of the mountain still can't stand it anymore.
The king of Hadesaro had no choice but to give up the dense forest and move his whole army towards the mountain, trying to take advantage of the towering mountain to avoid the catapult attack.
After all, no matter how powerful the Linghui Army's catapult was, it would not be able to climb the mountain.
On the side of the Linghui Army camp, Hei Dan stared at a pair of deep dark circles under his eyes, looked at the Turkic army that was constantly moving towards the mountain with a tired face, and said with a dry smile: "Oh my God, I finally drove them up the mountain, if they hold on for a long time, I won't be able to stand it!" ”
Li Hao also looked tired, his beard was stubbed, and he didn't have the appearance of the suave King Zhen'an.
He smiled bitterly: "Yes, I didn't expect the Turkic army under the command of King Hadessalone to be so difficult to deal with. This battle has almost exhausted all the siege weapons reserves of the Li Kingdom, and even if this battle can be won, we will need to delay it for a year before we can recover. ”
As he spoke, Li Hao turned to look around abruptly, and the tired soldiers roared loudly with their faces written on them.
"Erlang of the Linghui Army, victory is just around the corner, do you still have the strength?"
Although the physical strength of the soldiers was close to the limit, they all shouted loudly at this moment.
"Strength!"
"The Turks are still holding on, how can we shout tired first!"
"After fighting for so long, I am about to win, and I have to hold on if I can't hold on!"
"Good!" Li Hao waved his hand: "The whole army of the Linghui Army obeys the order and goes up the mountain!" ”
After a stick of incense, the Linghui army reorganized its soldiers and horses, and climbed all the way up from the south of Wolf Road Mountain.
They did not immediately attack the Turkic army on the mountainside, but gathered on a low peak below the mountainside to confront the Turkic army.
in the Turkic camp.
After the catapult offensive of the Linghui army, the Turkic army suffered heavy losses, and the original 100,000 troops lost more than 30,000 people.
The remaining tens of thousands of people are also injured and physically and mentally exhausted.
In the face of the Linghui Army's 100,000 troops climbing the mountain, although the battle situation is still geographically advantageous, it is still inevitable to be afraid in his heart.
During these three days, the Turkic kings kept sending letters asking the king of Hadesaro to send troops back for help.
The King of Hadesaro had to deal with the constantly attacking Linghui army and the message for help from the royal capital, and he was even more exhausted from both.
The soldiers saw that even the king of Hadessalona was so distressed, and the morale of the soldiers, who were not very firm, plummeted.
At this moment, a big drama is being staged in the Turkic tent.
"Lord Hades, the Linghui Army has gone crazy, they are going to break the net with us! We can't afford to defend Wolf Road Mountain! The last general thought that it was better to withdraw the army immediately, return to the royal capital, first drive away the thieves outside the royal capital, and then refuse to resist the city wall of the royal capital, and finally fight the Linghui army! ”
"The end will be reconsidered! Now the Linghui Army has also reached its limit. Their food and grass are less than a month, and I don't believe that in such a short time, they will be able to break through our capital! ”
King Hadesaro's face was full of exhaustion, but his eyes were full of anger.
"Stupid! The battle between the two armies has reached the last moment, and whoever loses his strength first will be difficult to stand up. Withdrawing now, even if a large number of men and horses can be saved, the walls of the royal capital will definitely not be able to withstand the catapult attack of the Linghui Army! Now only by sticking to this place, fighting to the death with the Linghui Army, and being able to survive it, can we have a chance of winning! ”
Everyone's spirit had jumped to the limit, and at this moment, they were suddenly scolded by King Hades, and the soldiers who had already had resentment in their hearts immediately couldn't hold their breath.
"King Hadesaro, you have to show off your power here, we are the courtiers of the Turks, not your servants. The Khan is being threatened by thieves at the moment, the situation is precarious, as the Turkic Hades King, how can you abandon the Khan and care about the victory or defeat of yourself and Li Hao? ”
"Presumptuous, what are you, dare to talk to the Hades like this!"
The Three Evil Masks were furious, and immediately drew their swords and pointed at the general who had just spoken.
But the other side was also out at this moment, and he was not afraid in the face of the bright sword, and said resolutely.
"Am I wrong? Brothers, obeying your orders, driving our Turkic people out of their homeland, has become completely discredited. The reason why we didn't say it was because we thought that the Hades could only defeat the Linghui Army and justify our name, but now? We can only retreat on the hill and let the Linghui army attack. He killed and wounded so many brothers, but he could not avenge them. Even if we can win this battle, we will have no shame to face the Turkic people! ”
"Now, if we hold on here, we may be able to force back the Linghui army, but what about the royal capital? The khan had only 2,000 troops at his disposal, but the besieging enemy army numbered tens of thousands. Once the royal capital is defeated, what is the use of defeating the Linghui army? ”
"Hmph, I think Hades-sama is waiting for this to happen! The kings were all defeated, the majesty of the Khan was lost, and the Lord of Hades became a great hero who forced the Linghui army back. When he returns to the royal capital one day, the Lord Hades will become a person who responds to all calls, and it is logical to sit on the throne, and from then on this Turkic dynasty will be the dynasty of your Hadesaro king. ”
"You!"
Shocked and furious, the king of Hadesaro suddenly stood up and pointed his sword at the generals in front of him.
He has been loyal to the Turkic royal family all his life, and at this moment he is so arranged, how can he not be angry?
But in the face of the sword of the King of Hadesaro, several generals beside him did not think so.
"Others are afraid of you, but I am not afraid. This will be loyal to Jieli Khan, the world is clear, and I came here today to tell you a word, I want to lead the troops back to the royal capital. If Lord Hades thinks I'm disturbing the morale of the army, he can kill me with a sword. But as long as I don't kill all my troops, even if there is only one person, they will rush back to the palace and be right-done! ”
"And me."
"I'll go too!"
For a while, nearly half of the generals asked for help, turned around and walked out of the account.
In an instant, the Turkic army fell apart.
