Chapter 482: 100,000 Heads Build a Beijing Temple

Previous Chapter

When the 30,000 cavalry of Yulinwei, especially the 3,000 armored cavalry led by Cheng Hu, completely split the 50,000 stubbornly resisting Turkic cavalry, the defeat of this Turkic army under the city of Liaodong was already a sure thing.

There is a saying that husband and wife are birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes!

Sometimes this is true even for husbands and wives, let alone different tribes with different aspirations.

In the face of the fierce and continuous offensive of the Xia army of more than 100,000 people, the first to be unable to support the escape was the only remaining 10,000 Tiele cavalry.

Originally, in the eyes of these Tiele people, they were just assisting the Turkic army in the battle, and by the way, they helped their family loot some things, but now the looting is not successful, and they are treated as cannon fodder by the Turks, how can they be happy?

It can also be seen from this that the Turks are rude and improper, even if the cannon fodder is dignified, not to mention that the Tiele people were their allies when they started from the Turks, or they are high-level cannon fodder, and they belong to the tribes with relatively high status among the servants, and even they are treated like this, so how can the Tiele people help the Turks to the end.

It may be that the Turks are used to being strong, so they never need to care about what others think, and it was nothing to do this when other countries were weak before, but when facing such a strong enemy as Xia Guo, Da Luo would be brainless to do this.

After the leader of the Tiele people withdrew from the military formation, he was arranged by Da Luo on the right flank, and when the 50,000 Turkic army charged, the Tiele people had to follow and rush forward, but this Tiele leader had an extra heart, and he always kept an eye on the existence of Da Luo.

As he expected, when his nearly 60,000 cavalry rushed up, Da Luo suddenly led the remaining 10,000 cavalry to the west, Da Luo already knew that the Turkic cavalry in the east was also besieged by the superior Xia army, and in front of the large number of Xia cavalry, he could only go to a dead end.

Da Luo fled so resolutely!

At this moment, he finally understood why his uncle Tubo Khan repeatedly told his brothers and cousins to pay attention to the strength of the Xia Kingdom before he set out on the expedition.

Once upon a time, Da Luo also secretly laughed at his uncle Tubo Khan, until today he knew that his uncle saw it so thoroughly, and the ridiculous thing was that he didn't listen to any opinions, and left more than 200,000 Turkic young people here.

When Da Luo fled, the leader of Tiele saw that the Xia army was only concerned about besieging the 60,000 Turkic troops in front of him, but did not divide any army to pursue the 10,000 cavalry of Da Luo who had fled.

This made the leader of Tiele puzzled at the same time, but he also inevitably had some excitement in his heart, so he took advantage of the convenience of his team charging at the rear, quickly slowed down and turned around, and then broke away from the ranks of the Turkic cavalry, and quickly fled to the north of Liaodong City.

At this time, he didn't know that there was already Hu Bingchang's unit intercepted there in the north, he only knew that the north was far away from the Xia army, but there were also some Tiele cavalry who did not follow the large army, but fled in the direction of Xincheng in the northeast, after all, there were also seventy or eighty thousand Turkic and Tiele cavalry there.

The sudden escape of the Tiele people alarmed the Turkic cavalry who were fighting against the Xia army, and they cursed that the Tiele people were really unreliable, but at the same time, they suddenly found that it was not only the Tiele people who fled, but even their most respected Daye Hu Daluo and the 10,000 cavalry beside him had long since disappeared.

Suddenly, all the Turkic cavalry felt a chill in their hearts, and at this time, most of the Turkic cavalry knew that they had been fooled, but they had been surrounded by the Xia army, and it was impossible to escape even if they wanted to.

In the face of the siege of the 130,000 Xia army, the Turkic cavalry in the encirclement resisted very weakly, especially the previous charge of the Xia army's armored cavalry cut them apart, and the 20,000 cavalry with a small number were soon completely wiped out under the siege of Yulinwei, the Iron Armor Army and the Blue Wolf Army.

The Turkic cavalry with a large number of people also had 30,000 cavalry at this time, and they wanted to escape, but they could not escape the encirclement of the Xia army.

At this time, the number of cavalry of the Xia army was still more than 75,000 people, and they had formed an absolute advantage of two and a half times the Turkic cavalry in front of them.

Many of the soldiers of the Iron Armor Army were sweating a lot in this relatively cold spring because of their physical exertion, and they had a rare break at this time, so they took out pieces of sugar from their pockets, which could replenish a lot of physical strength with them.

In Liaodong in April, the day hours had begun to exceed the night, and when night fell, although this Turkic cavalry had not been completely wiped out, it had been completely surrounded by the Xia army, and the Turkic cavalry in the encirclement was at most 20,000 people.

At this time, Wang Ze didn't care about the Turkic cavalry in these encirclements, because he wanted to leave all the 350,000 Turkic and Tiele coalition troops brought by Daluo here, and now he had wiped out at most 70,000 or 80,000 cavalry in this battle under Liaodong City, which was still far from his goal. Courier

So Wang Ze ordered the Blue Wolf Army and the Iron Armor Army, which were inconvenient to maneuver long distances, to garrison here, continue to besiege the 20,000 Turkic cavalry, and finally destroy them, while Wang Ze personally led the 80,000 cavalry to Xincheng not far from the northeast.

When Wang Ze led 80,000 cavalry to the new city one hundred and ten miles away, some of the Tiele people who had fled under the Liaodong city had fled here, and after learning that the Daluo division under the Liaodong city in the south had been defeated, the Tiele people here could not believe the Turks, for fear of selling them again as the abandoned sons of the palace.

In charge of the battle in the direction of Xincheng was the division of the Seventh Cavalry Army Lu Shishan and the division of the Seventh Infantry Army Li Shunsuo, and the two armies together had 100,000 men, and they also attacked and defended the Turkic army on the opposite side.

When Wang Ze led the 80,000 cavalry to the new city, the Turkic army here finally confirmed the complete defeat of Daluo, although the previous part of the Tiele people who had fled had already recounted the defeat of Daluo, but they still had a little illusion in their hearts.

There were 30,000 Tiele people on the battlefield of Xincheng, and the Turks themselves only had about 40,000 cavalry, so when the Tiele people became wary of the Turks, it was difficult for the Turks to command the Tiele people.

Without waiting for the Turks to think of a way to persuade the Tiele people, what they didn't expect was that the 30,000 Tiele cavalry began to flee as soon as possible.

Wang Ze united with the 100,000 troops of Lu Shishan and Li Shun to surround the 40,000 Turks, and then Wang Ze handed over all the combat tasks to the two of them, and then went to the city of Fuyu in the northeast.

Da Luo attached great importance to Buyeo City, and thanks to the superior geography here, Da Luo was ready to set up his own tooth tent here in the future, so he also arranged an army of 60,000 here, which was half Turkic and Tiele, and was led by Da Luo's henchman general.

Although it seems that there are not many troops, it is the place with the largest number of Turkic herdsmen, with 80,000 young and strong herdsmen grazing here, and these young and strong are actually the reserve cavalry force of the Turks, so the Turks actually have 160,000 troops here.

Although Han Wen, Miao Jun and Pei Jie, the Eighth Infantry Army who attacked here, had an army of 150,000, they did not progress very smoothly in the face of the 160,000 Turks here.

Even because of the excessive number of recruits in these three troops, they lost tens of thousands of soldiers at the beginning, but fortunately, the Xia army has always used veterans as grassroots officers, and with the excellent basic quality of these veterans, the army was finally stabilized from collapse.

In addition, the complex terrain in the southeast of Buyeo City, as well as the strong city, were the most favorable backing for the Xia army, which was also a favorable condition for the three of them to stabilize the battle line.

When Wang Ze led 80,000 cavalry to the back of the Turkic army of as many as 160,000, the three people who got the news immediately led the army to charge, and more than 200,000 people before and after the Xia army flanked the 150,000 Turkic and Tiele coalition troops.

In just over a day, the battle under the city of Buyeo was over, and the rest of the time was a large-scale encirclement and interception, as well as the capture of prisoners of war, although Hu Bingchang's troops were limited in number and could only intercept a large number of men, but most of the Turks were still stopped.

The speed at which Wang Ze's army launched an offensive was so fast, and the end of the war was so swift that in less than ten days, the 250,000 troops and 100,000 herdsmen of the Daluo Department in the direction of Liaodong almost disappeared.

Of the 350,000 people, less than 100,000 escaped, of which nearly 40,000 were Tiele cavalry, and among the other 60,000 Turks, more than 20,000 were Turkic herdsmen who had been frightened by the slaughter of the Xia army, and only more than 30,000 Turkic cavalry had fled.

In other words, except for the 10,000 cavalry under his command who fled when Da Luo saw that the situation was not good, only 20,000 Turkic cavalry escaped.

It can be said that the loss of this battle in Liaodong is the worst battle loss of the Turks in the past years, although it seems that the war ended so quickly, in fact, Wang Ze has been preparing for several months for the victory of this war, and a large number of troops, materials, weapons, horse materials, grain, etc. must all be taken into account.

In addition, it is also very dangerous for the Xia army of Jiangzhou City and Yangwu City to fight against the Turkic army with a small number of troops, and it is almost broken by the Turks many times in the middle.

After the main victory in Liaodong, the Xia army was not idle, and under the order of Wang Ze, all the nearly 100,000 Turks who died in the battle were beheaded, and the Jingguan was built to declare the prestige of the army, while the National Guard, which was originally stationed behind, followed up and took over the responsibility of defending the city, while the main force of the Xia army continued to go north.

Among them, Hu Bingchang led nearly 60,000 cavalry along the Liaoshui River to the upper Khitan and Turkic hinterlands.

In the following months, the shores of Liaoshui became a hell on earth, and almost all the Khitans on the north bank of Huangshui were killed except for young women, except for the Li in the south.

Because the main Khitan force was transferred to Yangwu City, the vast majority of those left behind were old and weak women and children, so a large number of women and children fled south to Yingzhou in the Northern Zhou Dynasty in order to avoid the killing of the Xia army.
