"After the Spring Festival Ceremony is over, I will prepare to return to Hetao." Haotian said without hesitation: "Now I still have 80,000 cavalrymen fighting outside the Great Wall. The reason why I let them run thousands of miles in the first place is to try to ease my situation as much as possible.
To put pressure on the other side and reduce the war potential of the other side, now it seems that the original decision was a bit hasty. So I want to go back earlier to welcome their return."
Xiang Xing nodded: "Although the three Northeastern countries are empty now, each country can still mobilize at least 200,000 troops. Running a thousand-mile attack is certainly a big deal, but the risk is indeed very high. The land is blocked by ice and snow in winter, which is very important for combat.
It is inherently disadvantageous. However, it would be much better if they were all light cavalry. However, Mandan's Yelu Canghai and Haixi's Jinmeiliu are not weak, and the military commander of Beijing, Cassimbas, is still in the country. If this person
If you take action, your 80,000 cavalry will definitely face difficulties."
Haotian was surprised again: "Kasimbas? Who is this person? Why haven't I heard of him before?"
Xiang Xing explained: "This man is the well-deserved number one general outside the Great Wall. He has been famous for more than sixty years. However, since the general was transferred from the defense line of the Northeast Great Wall back to the Holy Capital of Tiandu more than twenty years ago, this man has retired.
Domestic. Therefore, few people have heard of his name later. General, you and he are not from the same era at all, so naturally you have no way of knowing. However, this person is really unfathomable. I think he used to be a weak fourteen-year-old
Ling led 300 cavalry to raid the Northern Army camp, beheading more than 10,000 people on the spot, and became famous in one battle. After that, he rampaged outside the Great Wall and became the most troublesome figure of the Northern Army. Even at his peak, the commander-in-chief
We could only barely draw a tie with him. However, our country was still relatively strong at that time. Although Cassimbas had won many battles, he was still unable to break through the Great Wall defense line. Later, the commander-in-chief made a callback, and this man sighed and said that he was invincible in the world.
He resigned and went into seclusion after taking action, and has been missing since then. But the reason why the three Northeastern countries were able to break through the Great Wall defense line in one fell swoop two years ago and completely annihilate the Northern Army and 80,000 garrison troops was because of his handiwork."
When Haotian was still worried about the appearance of Cassimbas, the legendary first general outside the Great Wall, in the Holy Capital of Tiandu, Xinke, who was in the army, had already deeply felt the power of this old man.
The reinforcements that arrived first were the 40,000 cavalrymen from the Spring Sword Reward. He and Xinke were both the vanguard of the army, but compared to Xinke's impetuous and reckless behavior, he was undoubtedly much more rational. His army had been fighting with the bloody army.
Maintaining a distance of ten miles, and when he found that Xingke was besieged, he did not rush to join the battlefield impulsively. Instead, he first reported a message to the bloody army behind him, and then divided the 40,000 cavalry in his hands into three groups.
He formed two groups. One group of 20,000 people was led by himself, and the other group of 20,000 people was led by his deputy Sun Demin.
The 40,000 cavalrymen in the Spring Sword Reward are all from the captured Youyun Sixteen Provinces. Although as men from the North, they have been familiar with similar things such as horseback riding and archery, they have not been rigorously trained after all.
Soldiers. However, with their passion and their deep-seated hatred for the aliens outside the Great Wall, their fighting power was extremely impressive. The general of the infantry phalanx of the Mandan Dynasty was caught off guard, and his defense line was completely destroyed with just one charge.
A gap was opened. Then, separated by more than 10,000 infantrymen in the middle, Xing Ke and Chun Jian Shang looked at each other from a distance among the rebellious army.
"Brothers, reinforcements are coming, come with me!" Xin Ke roared, and the more than two thousand cavalry under his command immediately became energetic, and the weapons in their hands also waved more powerfully.
Although Xinke was a little reckless, he was definitely not a foolhardy man on the battlefield. When he saw the Mandan infantry starting to squeeze towards the middle to prevent his two cavalry from joining forces, Xinke immediately turned his horse's head
, turned around and charged toward their flanks. The Mandan soldiers on the flanks obviously did not expect that Xingke would give up the most likely opportunity to join forces. At that time, they were caught off guard by Xingke's assault. Thousands of people were killed.
The cavalry team was immediately dispersed by the letter.
"Trash! There are so many people who can't even stop the opponent's two thousand cavalry!" On the hill, Yelu Minghuang cursed fiercely. However, after he finished cursing, he thought that this was his own team after all, and he couldn't help but feel distressed in his heart.
So he cautiously said to the old man beside him: "Kashuai, do you think we should rescue him?"
"Go. Your 20,000 soldiers had to go out early. Alas, I originally thought that these 2,000 cavalrymen should be the turtles in the urn, but I didn't expect that their generals were so brave. Your Highness, the Second Prince, let your 20,000 soldiers
Surrounding these two thousand cavalry tightly, with such brave generals and such united soldiers, their army will definitely come to the rescue at all costs. As long as their army can be firmly attracted around these two thousand cavalry,
, then our plan is more than half successful." Cassimbas sighed, but secretly sighed in his heart. The great dynasty is really full of talents. Such brave generals can be said to be rare in our country in a hundred years.
, however, he is just a prefect of Qingfeng Hetao, but there are such talents below him. The Millennium State of China should not be underestimated.
With the timely input of Yelu Minghuang's 20,000 troops, Xinke's tide-like offensive was immediately blocked. Although Xinke was unstoppable, and the soldiers below were also elite in hundreds of battles, they faced a force ten times larger than our own.
After a long battle, they finally became a little tired. The balance on the battlefield began to shift in the direction of Mandan again. Fortunately, the task of these 20,000 soldiers was only to bite the letter and not to engrave it.
They were annihilated, so they only passively defended, leaving a glimmer of hope for Xinke.
Xin Ke's side was trapped in a tight siege, and Chun Sword Shang's side was not much better. His subordinates had never experienced any military training. Although their fighting spirit was extremely high, in this situation, more cooperation was needed.
On the battlefield that focused on unity, they were inexperienced and quickly found themselves at a disadvantage. However, facing an enemy force several times their size, they did not have any fear. Even if they were attacked by swords, they did not retreat even half a step.
Instead, they desperately stuffed the weapons in their hands into the opponent's body, and then fell down with relief. At that moment, they may not be able to bear the title of an excellent warrior, but they are well-deserved fearless national warriors.
For the tens of millions of people in China, and for the elders in their hometown in China, they sacrificed their lives without hesitation. There was reluctance and nostalgia in their eyes, but they did not have the slightest fear. Perhaps their only regret was that
Why was the place where I fell not my motherland?
At this critical moment of life and death, Sun Demin's 20,000 cavalry joined the battlefield at the right time. The Qingfeng soldiers, who had been struggling to support themselves, suddenly became energetic, and the original disadvantage in strength was immediately reversed. With 40,000 against 40,000, fighting spirit
The high-spirited Chun Jian Shang even began to try to regain the initiative on the battlefield. However, there was no joy in Chun Jian Shang's eyes, but deep worry. Since the enemy had deliberately laid such a trap, then he would never
There will be other preparations. In this case, they can actually stand still, which can only show that their plot is bigger. And their only target is the 70,000 troops behind them. At this moment, a
A cavalry force of about 40,000 people suddenly came out of the wilderness. Chun Jian Shang felt relieved. At least his mission had been completed.
"Bastard! Who ordered that army to be exposed in advance?" Kasimbas said angrily on the hill.
"Kashuai, this is the order from the little king." Yelu Minghuang stepped forward and said with some fear. Although he had experienced many years of bloody battles on the battlefield, even though he was a prince of the Mandan Dynasty.
, but when facing this veteran who had dominated the Great Wall for sixty years, he was still a little uneasy.
Kasimbas's eyes were wide-eyed, his silver hair was calm, but his voice was extremely calm and he said to Yelu Minghuang: "If I remember correctly, Prime Minister Yelu gave the command of the battle to Yelu Minghuang.
Even your father has no objection to this. If anyone dares to mobilize the army without permission from me, he is violating military orders and should be executed according to the law! Your Highness really thinks that this commander does not dare to execute you.
Yeah?"
"Marshal Qi, I don't dare!" Yelu Minghuang suddenly felt fear in his heart. Who is Kasimbas? He is an undefeated general who can dominate the battlefield for a hundred years, and he is the number one general with unparalleled reputation in the three countries beyond the Great Wall. He has
What are you afraid of doing? Thinking of this, Yelu Minghuang's tone suddenly softened: "Xiao Wang did not intend to disobey the marshal's military order, but if we don't take action, even if we can finally annihilate them all, it will definitely be
A tragic victory. The 80,000 soldiers of our royal guard regiment will definitely be severely damaged. Besides, in addition to these 40,000 ambush troops, we also have the marshal's 100,000 troops. The enemy army can only have 70,000 people at best. With 100,000 against
Seventy thousand, and it is commanded by the marshal himself, so this battle will be won without a doubt!"
"If you can win with more people, then where are there so many examples in history of defeating more with less? The enemy troops are all cavalry. Even if they are defeated and escape, it is not difficult. If you let them wander around, you can
Knowing how much damage and panic it will cause? As a soldier, you should have the consciousness to die in battle! If you are really afraid of death, you should not become a soldier. Are all the 80,000 soldiers of your Imperial Guard Corps?
Are you a weakling? Did you know that the early appearance of this army will greatly reduce our follow-up attack power!" Cassimbas became angrier as he spoke. Yelu Minghuang, a bastard, made one wrong move and was
His well-arranged ambush revealed a major flaw. The main reason why he originally selected this wilderness as the battlefield was because the open terrain here made the enemy mistakenly believe that there would be no enemy troops here.
In fact, his ambush troops had already been lying around. Before that, Cassimbas had ordered his men to build many huts flush with the ground in many low-lying areas around them, and then covered them with ice and snow, and the soldiers
They are hiding under it. Therefore, at a casual glance, you will not notice that there is a cave under the ice and snow. However, the terrain here is open after all, and although it faces the lake, it is not difficult to escape. So Cassimbas side
He carefully controlled the troops in his hands while paying close attention to the situation on the battlefield. He could not let the enemy's force be too strong to impair his own position, nor could he be destroyed prematurely. Who knew that the other party's generals were not ordinary people, but Yeluming
Huang, this bastard, was too impatient, so his plan went awry.
Cassimbas actually understands what Yelu Minghuang is thinking. Although the three Northeastern countries are in the same spirit, they are not monolithic internally. Although everyone has the same interests in the battle to conquer the south, within the coalition forces
In other words, intrigues are common among the top leaders of the Three Kingdoms. This time he used the 80,000 soldiers of the Mandan Royal Guards as bait. Of course, because this is on Mandan territory, they should act as the main force. But this
Is there any idea of taking the opportunity to weaken the Mandan military power? Yelu Minghuang obviously saw through his mind, so he let the army come out in advance. There is also a very important factor in this, the vicissitudes of the Mandan king Yelu
There are four sons in total. Until now, he has not determined who his successor to the throne is, so several sons are ready to move. The imperial guard regiment has always been Yelu Minghuang's territory. If the loss is too big, it will naturally be harmful to him.
And there is no benefit.
Cassimbas's brows gradually wrinkled. For this battle, he had gathered all the troops he could in a short period of time. The army of Yelu Chixian and others was too far away from here now, and they could only act as a barrier to prevent the other party from escaping.
Strength, so what Mandan can muster to fight is a royal guard regiment and tens of thousands of surrounding garrisons, as well as the 100,000 soldiers he brought to Beijing. But if the opponent is allowed to escape today, then the opponent will definitely not be able to do so in the future.
In such a trap, the only hope is that the opponent's large troops do not come too fast, or the opponent's coach is a fool similar to Yelu Minghuang. In that case, as long as the opponent's 40,000 cavalry can be weakened by half, even if
The enemy's army appeared, and he could have sufficient troops in his hands. However, contrary to expectations, with a resentful and low horn horn sound, the opponent's army had appeared in the wilderness. And is the opponent's coach a fool?
