Chapter 162: Bulgan

War horses are gone, but these 5 million horses are also quite rich resources, according to the plan of Ye Ling Yan and Lin Ruofeng is to migrate all these 5 million horses to the Liaodong Plain in the northeast of Dazhao, which is also the production area of Dazhao's war horses, these 5 million horses as long as they are carefully bred, there is no problem in producing 200,000 excellent war horses a year, and it can also alleviate the embarrassment of Dazhao's lack of horses, even if you don't take care of the cavalry of the local troops, after this war, the Great Zhao Janissary Guards and Border Guards and Rouran Iron Cavalry will definitely have countless casualties, and even if you win, you will be greatly injured, don't be the same as the battle of Mobei in the Han Dynasty, Huo Qubing crippled the Xiongnu, but there was not enough war horse to restore the strength of the cavalry, and as a result, Huo Qubing was consumed to death and did not destroy the Xiongnu.

Liaodong pasture is located in the northeast of Dazhao, north of the Outer Xing'an Mountains, east of Goguryeo, west of the Great Xing'an Mountains, the land is fertile, the grass is abundant, it is a rare good pasture, the war horse is always the north of the bitter cold land to produce more high-quality, so the land of Youyan has always been the preferred war horse ranch in China, and Rouran is located in the Poyang Lake Plain, originally there produced war horses must be inferior to Liaodong, just because the sacred mountain is there, under the nourishment of the spiritual energy of the sacred mountain, the quality of the war horses produced by Rouran is more high-quality than that of Liaodong pasture.

There is another most important reason why Liaodong is chosen as the largest pasture in Dazhao, there are five forbidden places in Dazhao, and the five forbidden places are all places that non-human beings can look up to, and they are also high-level demonic beast settlements, unless they are forced to do so, otherwise even tens of millions of troops will not dare to set foot in these places lightly.

The five forbidden places are the Anxing Warcraft Forest on the first line of the Great Xing'an Mountains and the Outer Xing'an Mountains, the Kunlun Mountain Forbidden Land with the Kunlun Mountains as the main line, the Nanzhao Warcraft Forest with the huge subtropical rainforest in the south of Nanzhao, that is, the southern Yunnan Province as the main line, and the Helan Mountains and the Tengger Desert. The Taklamakan Desert is a natural forbidden land, and there is also a sea area dominated by the sea east of Dazhao.

The area of Anxing Warcraft Forest is endless. More than 300 million square kilometers of primary forest. There are countless demonic beasts inside, from the first order to the sixth order, and even the seventh-order demonic beasts are not rare in a thousand years, even tens of millions of troops may not have the courage to go in and clean them up. And Goguryeo, the only country in the east, is still a vassal state of Dazhao, not to mention that Goguryeo does not have the courage to attack Dazhao, even if there is, with Goguryeo's extremely poor combat effectiveness of the army, it is quite difficult to break through the 300,000 troops of Dazhao Liaodong. Therefore, with the barrier of the natural forbidden land, the entire northeast of Dazhao is extremely safe, and the Liaodong Ranch naturally does not need to worry about being destroyed by the war.

Seven days later, the Central Route Army finally came to Mandale, at this time the Central Route Army was also considered to be a wide range of soldiers, sufficient food and grass, and high morale, with 480,000 Praetorian cavalry, 490,000 Rouran cavalry, and 130,000 field troops. There are just 1 million troops, and the battle of Bayan Zhuoer in front of them has consumed some soldiers of the fourth and fifth route armies. Otherwise, there should have been an army of 1.03 million.

Mandale did not have a genius general like Rovich, there was a fortified city and 300,000 Rakshasa soldiers sitting empty, and it was broken by Ye Lingyan in less than three days, but the war horse was still sent away by Mandale's general according to Rovich's intentions as soon as he arrived in Mandal, so that Lin Ruofeng and Ye Lingyan, who were full of hope, were all in the air, so they were not disappointed.

Fortunately, although Mandal was not as rich as Bayan Zhuoer, he was still very rich, with a total of 12 million silver worth of various materials and equipment, which made the expeditionary force a small windfall.

The Left Route Army and the Right Route Army also received good news, and Bayan Honggol and Saiyin Shanda were also occupied by the Left Route Army and the Right Route Army one after another, capturing 14 million silver and 11 million silver worth of materials and weapons and equipment respectively, which was still the spoils of war after the Rakshasa consciously began to transfer materials and weapons and equipment.

In this way, coupled with Bayan Zhuoer's harvest of 32 million taels of silver, so far, Da Zhao has captured more than 69 million taels of silver worth of materials and weapons from Rakshasa , if you count 30 million cattle and sheep worth more than 15 million taels of silver and more than 5 million horses worth more than 15 million taels, then this capture has successfully exceeded 100 million!!

What is the concept of 100 million silver, that is equivalent to the wealth of 1 trillion RMB in the previous time and space! Da Zhao's financial income in a year is only like this, Ye Lingyan and Lin Ruofeng looked at the statistics in their hands, and they couldn't believe their eyes.

Ye Ling Yan was shocked and then ecstatic, and laughed: "It seems that as long as we can be undefeated in this war, then we will make a lot of money, not only has Yan zhòng weakened the military and financial strength of the Great Food Country, the Rakshasa Country, Persia, and the Orcs, but our Great Zhao himself has only weakened the military strength, with this more than 100 million taels of silver, we basically don't have to bear the pressure of the imperial court in this war." ”

Lin Ruofeng is also very happy, don't forget, this more than 100 million taels of silver is not a pile of metal silver, but the most needed by the army at present, real strategic materials, this is simply the legendary war to feed the war, so that not only the pressure on Da Zhao is reduced, the burden on civilians is gone, and most importantly, there is no need for a long supply line, and the pressure on the logistics of the Da Zhao expeditionary force will become very small.

Twenty days later, the Left Route Army, the Right Route Army, the Middle Route Army and the Vanguard finally succeeded in the small town of Hehigwendur, 3,000 miles away from Burgan, after two months, 2 million Rouran Iron Cavalry, 500,000 Praetorian Cavalry, 200,000 Lightning Iron Cavalry and 130,000 Xiao Cavalry are all in place, according to statistics, the expeditionary force annihilated a total of 900,000 Rakshasa soldiers, 300,000 prisoners, more than 100 million silver seized in materials and equipment, of course, the expeditionary force itself also paid a great price, 20,000 casualties of the Praetorian Guard, 50,000 casualties of the Rouran Iron Cavalry, 3,000 casualties of the Lightning Iron Cavalry, and 600 casualties of the Xiao Cavalry。 You must know that these 2.83 million troops are all first-class elites, and every time they fight, they occupy the advantage of numbers, the advantage of individual combat ability, and the casualties are already very large, but fortunately, they have not suffered major injuries and have not affected the upcoming war.

According to the spies, Bulgan is the central political and military center of Rakshasa in its south, not only the city is thick, but also the headquarters of the Rakshasa Southern Frontier Army, with more than 3 million border guards, and its main responsibility is to protect the territory of the southern Rakshasa Xinjiang.

Because the Great Zhao Expeditionary Force is full of powerful and mobile elite cavalry, the Rakshasa Southern Vice President Marshal of Bulgan was originally Rovich, but Rakshasa Peters the Great did not hesitate to transfer Rovic to Bayan Zhuoer in order to carry out the coalition operation, so that in the future when the war Rovich can give full play to his talents and coordinate the support work of the coalition army, I didn't expect that the war had not yet begun, but Rovich and Bayan Zhuoer faced the anger of the Dazhao Expeditionary Army, and now the deputy commander of Bulgan is the Sword Saint Duke Nikolayevich who was transferred from Vladivostok, but Nikolayevich has a high title, he is also a sixth-level high-level super master, but he doesn't understand military affairs, so he mainly plays a deterrent role in Bulgan, and the real commander of Bulgan is Marshal Muzychenko, one of the ten marshals of the Rakshasas.

Ye Lingyan listened carefully to all the information sent back by the spies, because although the city of Bulgan is not small, it cannot accommodate more than 3 million troops, so Marshal Muzichenko decided to garrison all the troops, leaving only 300,000 troops to hold on to the city of Bulgan.

Of course, Muzichenko is not a straw bag, naturally the army will not be pulled directly outside the city to give Da Zhao experience, Muzichenko skillfully used the three favorable terrain outside the city, hills and plains, 500 miles away from the city of Bulgan There are two adjacent hills of more than 300 li, as if he is the guardian of Burgan, Muzichenko arranged 700,000 Rakshasa soldiers and more than 800,000 Rakshasa soldiers on the left hill and the right hill respectively.

Among them, there are 600,000 infantry and 100,000 cavalry among the 700,000 Rakshasa soldiers on the left, and 600,000 troops and 200,000 cavalry in the 800,000 army of the right army。

Then less than 400 miles (160 kilometers) from the left and right two large battalions, more than 100 miles away from the city of Bulgan, there is stationed Muzichenko's Chinese army, according to the Rakshasa internal spies report, Muzichenko's Chinese army has a total of 1.6 million Rakshasa soldiers, including 500,000 Cossack cavalry, 800,000 ordinary cavalry, 300,000 infantry, the front left and right two battalions form an inverted triangle formation, each other is horns, and the Chinese army is also the only one of the three battalions with offensive capabilities, mainly cavalry, the speed of maneuver on the steppe is still quite terrifying。

Ye Lingyan looked at the information sent back by the Rakshasa and said: "This Muzichenko is worthy of being the top three famous generals among the ten marshals of the Rakshasa , it seems that I still underestimated him, he arranged the army like this, no matter how we attack, we will fall into a bitter battle, triangle defense is the most common and effective defense method used in defensive operations." The advantage is that it can be attacked at one point, and the other two points can be effectively supported. (To be continued......)
