2342 Thunderbolt VIII

The sky is as blue as a wash, and the endless plains are shrouded in smoke and dust.

Countless steppe cavalry marched along the mountains to the south, like a troop of horses rising in a whirlwind, spreading out towards the two wings, guarding the cautious passage of the middle tribes, countless baggage vehicles, millions of cattle, sheep and livestock, forming a huge long dragon with no end in sight from beginning to end, as if the people of this steppe were crowded together at once

The road ahead is vast, but it is the way of life, the old man leaning on the baggage cart has an incomparably solemn gaze, the child can not understand this melancholy of leaving the land, playing next to the baggage carriage, for the child, home is constantly moving,

For as long as they can remember, home is where the most abundant aquatic plants grow, so this time, at most, they have migrated farther, on the prairie, where is not home! But as the meadow in front of them began to diminish significantly, revealing a large area of pale yellow earth, and the black pillars of smoke rose into the sky in the distance, as if a huge flag had been planted between the sky and the earth.

The place where the flag is located is Yanzhou, which is the largest barrier against the northern grasslands in China, where there used to be a group of elites who have fought against the grassland people for a hundred years.

In the Yanzhou Army of Central Belgium, most of the old people in the clan still remember the strength of this army, and at this time they unconsciously stood up from the baggage car.

Whether you can enter Zhongbia this time to find a way to live, the key is whether you can break through the barrier of Yanzhou in the shortest possible time.

I heard that His Royal Highness attacked Yanzhou, and most of the barrier defense lines have been destroyed, and those that cannot be destroyed will be burned by fire, and the military lord of Yanzhou has also voted for His Royal Highness, and Yanzhou has long been out of the existence of the Central Belgian army, so what is the black smoke rolling up in front?

The most careless child also sensed something at this time, stopped fighting, and stood on the baggage cart and pursed his lips tightly, and the long convoy of migrating in front of him had stopped. As the news came from above, more tribal men began to put on armor,

The woman hung the bow and scimitar that had been wiped all night on the man's horse, put the copper nail armor helmet that had been passed down from several generations on the man's head, carefully arranged the saddle strap of the war horse, and stuffed the various talismans from the clan wizards, the perforated beast bones, and a series of beast teeth into the man's arms.

The man rubbed his child's face, stretched out his warm and rough hand, touched his woman's face, and under the woman's gaze, he smiled and hung all the amulets around his neck, and the woman's face was a little better-looking, but his eyes were still looking at the back of the horse galloping away, until it turned into a small black dot, and he could no longer see it.

For many years, people on the grassland have been like this, like grass seeds, as long as they don't die. It's fate,

It's just that the wind here, without the breath of the grassland, is blowing in the face. It's also bloody, there, it's not home! It's not the prairie! It's the northwest of Yanzhou. Hural Pass, 300,000 right troops marching south ushered in the first battle of their own destiny,

Dressed in red armor, Yeluguda galloped through the Hural Pass with dozens of bloody wolf guards, the same as their team, and the cavalry of the other departments were also divided into groups of military horses, scattering and surround this pass between two towering mountains.

Yelu Hongtai sent the most elite fifteen hundred blood wolf guards on this road to Yanzhou, I thought that the Yanzhou army had survived, this has no master's pass, and it is not a rush down?

It is not known when the Central Biyans had already placed a unit in the Hulaand Pass

The angry Yeluguda led 1,500 blood wolf guards, and crashed headlong into this barrier like a moat, and attacked and killed all night, losing more than 300 people, and finally grabbed a hole, but knew that the other party opened a team of heavily armored troops, and the knife could not cut in, and the arrows could not be shot, so Yeluguda's subordinates who were directly killed were scattered.

In the end, after a night of fierce fighting, the right army still did not take the mountain pass in front of them, and the road was not passed, it was a dead end.

The imperial army promised to give five days, and four days have passed, and the Baihe pro-army of the Yelu family has been pressing the last of the entire migration team in order to prevent the imperial army from backhanding, so although there are tens of thousands of troops, they can't move forward.

Hular Pass, once the outpost of the northern army camp of Yanzhou, although it is partial to the heartland, but for the whole Yanzhou, it is the most important west gate. The most fundamental reason for the catastrophe of the imperial capital is because of the loss of Yanzhou of the century-old barrier, and now the grassland army has retreated to the grassland, and the civil strife of the three princes is so obvious, it is the best opportunity to regain the lost territory in the north!

Because the main army has not yet recovered, and the emperor only maintains a tentative attitude towards this strategy, so the army that was ordered to enter Yanzhou this time is the Luzhou Army in the south of Central Bia, the Luzhou Army has always been the most important military cluster in the south of Central Bia, with 110,000 people, guarding the four southern provinces, and the main role is to replace the central government to suppress the powerful forces in the southIn fact, the troops of the two commanders in the Hural Pass, less than 5,000, belonged to the Fengwu Army, but Yeluguda's luck was really bad, and he hit the head of the Zhongbia heavy armor soldier, who was known as the first in the wall, and lost more than 200 people, and was still driven down from above

The Luzhou army is stationed in the south, relying on the southern mountains rich in iron ore, and in order to deter the barbarians in the south who claim to be the king of the mountains, so it has a rare heavy armor in the Central Belgian army. Even the heavy cavalry may not be able to rush away, it is the most advantageous type of troops to deal with the southern mountaineers who are mostly guarded by the mountains, most of the long-range weapons of the mountaineers are hunting bows, and they can't cause any damage to the heavy armor soldiers at all, the latest southern rebellion, the Feng Dance Army just sent a team of one hundred and fifty heavy armor soldiers to destroy the rebel cottage of nearly three thousand people, and the losses suffered by the heavy armor soldiers were only sixteen killed and thirty-seven injured, which was still because the auxiliary soldiers behind were cut off by the other party, and they did not respond for a while. Thousands of people besieged these more than 100 people, and they were still all killed.

In terms of array warfare, even if it is the Western Army of the Long Family, which is good at field warfare, it must avoid the heavy armor soldiers of the Fengwu Army

The battle for the throne on the northern grassland has not yet landed, and the Luzhou army did not expect that it would encounter the southward movement of the steppe people at this time, and it was rushed from the most offset gap, so the rammed earth city walls of the Hural Pass have not yet been covered with bricks, and the battlements have also collapsed. Only wooden pillars could be erected, and the defenders could be seated for cover on the city walls. The front ditch is also not wide. A canal was also drawn to irrigate a field outside the pass, but the water level was only knee-high, and the banks on both sides collapsed to form a gentle slope, forcing the moat to be shallow and narrow. Hardly can be an obstacle. As for the auxiliary defensive facilities such as hanging walls to resist heavy siege vehicles, they are basically useless.

The Yanzhou barrier has been erected for 100 years, and although it has experienced the impact of previous wars, the structure still exists.

This defense line is like a dragon's winding spiky back, with Yanzhou Shangjing as the core, a majestic and solid city. Heavy contour building. It is this environment that has created one of the two major armies of the Central Berean Empire, the Yanzhou Army, for more than 100 years, the defense system of the walled fort has been repaired again and again, it is absolutely the first line of defense in the Eastern Continent, the layers of masonry buildings, never finished when the fight is never finished, for the grassland light cavalry, seven hundred miles of Yanzhou, three hundred miles of city defense line, is a moat that cannot be crossed, so the three princes went south, and they all chose to bypass Yanzhou"Bastard, you can't take a mountain pass, and you still talk about crossing Yanzhou!"

Yeluruda's eyes were already red, the corners of his mouth were dry, his lips were chapped, and he was so hot that he had no choice but to ask for help from the various departments that migrated south, and the steppe cavalry kept coming up, and thousands of horsemen surrounded the mountain pass defense line from time to time and sent out a shower of arrows. And thousands of lightly armed cavalry with shields in hand dismounted and lined up. Form one scattered formation after another. array. There are also crude long ladders that were built in a hurry. In the middle of this array one after another, several leaders of the clan stood nervously in front of the array, just waiting for the order to attack, the mountain pass city wall was not very high, hundreds of corpses were piled up under the wall, seven twisted and eight dead in different shapes, seven or eight long ladders fell crookedly under the city wall, and there was still a little scorched wood left. At this moment, there are still wisps of green smoke. "Whoever lays down the mountain pass, the Yelu family is willing to take out three hundred gold!"

Yelu Guda waved his knife and shouted loudly, the number of blood wolf guards of the Yelu family is only so much, but they can't all die here, the grassland army has never lacked blood bravery, what is lacking is nothing more than before buying his life, the Yelu family killed Ananingge, and dug up the bottom of the wolf Rui army, one of the eight armies of the East Court, and reserved enough property for this southward journey If necessary, the Yelu family did not hesitate to use these goods to encourage other tribes to be cannon fodder,

When the other steppe people heard that there was a reward of three hundred gold, their eyes immediately turned red, and just now there were some tribal leaders who were complaining in a low voice, took a deep breath of cold air, and their voices immediately became a few louder, and shouted to the chaotic infantry behind them, "Whoever is the first to climb the mountain pass, give him freedom" Take the mountain pass, three hundred gold, not three hundred gold coins, but the gold cake that passes on the grassland, a gold cake is enough to weigh one or two, three hundred gold, that is more than four hundred taels of gold! Who would not be impressed by this, these light infantry with poor equipment, the first to be sent out, naturally are cannon fodder, most of them are sturdy slaves, just issue a short knife, a wooden shield, in terms of value, I don't know if a sheep is worth anything?

Since the Yelu family spares no expense to open this mountain pass, then everyone will not be stingy! Not to mention that there is no telling how many imperial troops are watching in the back.

All the steppe people, including the Yelu family, they have no choice, the right minister said that going south is the way to live, and others also said that if they don't go south, they will be killed by all the imperial people, but in the end, the leaders of the Ona Co tribe decided to go south, or the news that the three highnesses brought back countless treasures from Zhongbia, the main force of Zhongbia has suffered heavy losses, and in front of them is an open warehouse, a lot of cattle and sheep are frozen to death in winter, and a lot of property in the clan is also consumed,

In the Eighth Army of the Eastern Garden, there were already three legions fighting with the Empire, and the results were quite tragic, Zamu Hebi died in the Heavenly Wolf Mansion, An Naningge died in Onnaco, and the Lei Army's Wu Gudeli had already seen that the situation was not right, and withdrew in advance, so that the grassland army that died in the hands of the Imperial Army exceeded 100,000, how could the royal court continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb? The throne of the Royal Court Khan fell, according to tradition, the new king was going to launch a full-scale expedition to show his royal power, just like the howl of the head wolf looking at the moon,

Over the years, the target of the new Khan's conquest has been Central Bay in the south, rolling up the mountains of corpses and a sea of blood

This time, you don't have to think about it to know that the target of the expedition is other than the Falcon Empire that humiliated the royal court several times? Once the royal court order is issued, whether you should obey it or ignore it, this is a big problem, if you choose neutrality, then the result is that you will die faster, and if you don't offend both, you will offend both sides!

The great power of the Imperial Army in the Battle of Baikonur shocked all the people of this land,

After receiving the ultimatum given by the Imperial Army, the right minister Yelu Hongtai finally let go of the last bit of vigilance, and immediately sent a message to the clansmen of the Baihe pro-army who had been wandering on the edge of the Onatso grassland, plus the grassland people who had been agitated and agreed to go south, the total number of the two gathered was more than 300,000 people, go south, there is still a way to live! The black smoke of the mountain pass in front of them was shrouded, and the flames rolled up were like a huge evil dragon, illuminating most of the wilderness, and in the afternoon, the sound of cheers shook the four wilderness! The right army broke through the Hular Pass, and 300,000 grassland tribes poured into the north of Yanzhou like a tide (to be continued......
