In the pouring rain, the Tyumen cavalry leaned down and straightened their spears, like giant beasts in the wild. However, just as they were galloping, they found that countless black shadows suddenly appeared in front of them, and countless Hetao cavalry also appeared.
It's killing him.
"Kill!" Both sides could not avoid it, nor could they retreat. Without sufficient psychological preparation on both sides, more than 200,000 cavalrymen collided without any fancy at a place and time where neither side was willing to fight a decisive battle.
.The soldiers in the first few rows almost fell off their horses without even making a sound. The injured horses neighed loudly, and the unyielding roars of the fighting soldiers even suppressed the rumbling thunder.
"The brave will win when we meet on a narrow road. Soldiers, charge forward!" Xue Sha shouted, and he jumped over several Tyumen cavalry from the mountain with his hips, taking the lead in charging into the opponent's formation, immediately causing a rain of blood in the sky.
Under such circumstances, all formations and techniques were in vain. More than 200,000 cavalry were soon fighting together. The rain was pouring. As soon as you raised your head, the rain would immediately pour into your nostrils and mouth. The white mist in front of you could only be seen.
I saw a faint black spot in front of me.
Don't dare to reach out to wipe the rain off your face, because the moment you raise your hand, the opponent's weapon may have pierced your body, or a certain part of your body will say goodbye to you forever. Moreover, the heavy rain
It was so wild that as soon as I wiped it off, my face was already misty.
The golden armor of the Huben Legion, the black leather armor of the Blood Cavalry, the green armor of the Green Dragon Legion soldiers who had just arrived, and the gray-brown leather armor of Qiu Ming were completely entangled together. The light spots of different colors interacted with each other crazily under the heavy rain.
The soldiers who were hit, bitten, and seriously injured were unwilling to fall off their horses even before they died, because they knew that once they fell off their horses, they would be trampled by thousands of hooves.
It was a melee, a crazy melee. It was pouring rain, the night was like pitch black, and the soldiers on both sides couldn't stop. They didn't dare to stop, and they could only rely on their own instincts to keep killing.
Memphis secretly rejoiced that he invested less troops, while Hetao invested at least 200,000 troops. Under such circumstances, the phenomenon of accidental injuries to his own people in Hetao would be more serious. However, the fact is exactly the opposite. In the melee, the Tyumen soldiers suffered tragic consequences.
The screams accounted for the majority.
"What's going on? Can they recognize us under such circumstances?" Memphis was shocked. If this is really the case, then the situation of the Tyumen soldiers will be dire.
However, what worries him even more is the increasingly louder and louder shouts of killing coming from the Qingchang Grassland. Obviously, he himself thinks that tonight is a good opportunity for a sneak attack, and the Hetao people also think so. What the hero has learned
At the same time, I never thought that I would be so unlucky to this extent.
There were loud killing sounds inside and outside the city, but the shouts of killing coming from the city were faintly accompanied by countless cries. It was obvious that the fighting in the city was out of the control of Tieling Khan, who was personally in charge. The attacking Hetao soldiers had already
They expanded their targets of massacre to include civilians.
"What should we do now?" Memphis was worried. He didn't even have anyone to consult with among the chaotic army. He didn't know where Tiucle was rushed to, and he didn't know if he was still alive. The other generals
, anyway, I didn’t see Memphis.
"How did this battle end like this?" Memphis groaned in pain.
He didn't know that among the rebels, Xue Sha, the top commander of the Hetao army, spat hard and cursed angrily: "Damn it, how did the battle end like this?"
Nearly 400,000 cavalry are fighting together outside the city, and the entire battlefield is at least twenty to thirty square kilometers. On the battlefield, there will be no soldiers, and no generals. Everyone can only rely on their own instincts to kill, maybe
, a high-ranking general with a distinguished status accidentally died in the hands of the opponent's lowest groom. Fortunately for the bloody battle, although the soldiers in Hetao couldn't see the opponent's face clearly, they couldn't distinguish the one in front of them in the heavy rain.
What kind of armor does Jiu wear? But they all remembered what Xue Sha told them at the beginning. The opponent's soldiers all had a strong smell of sheep.
In the heavy rain, the smell was diluted a lot, but as long as the two sides were close, the pungent smell still made the Hetao soldiers have to hold their breath. Fortunately, otherwise the Scarlet Clan Cavalry led by Shan Heqi would have had a lot of trouble.
Big accidental injury.
There is no doubt that the Hetao army will win under such circumstances, but the price paid will also be heavy. But both sides are unable to stop and can only fight desperately.
Oh my God, how will I report it to the master then? I thought about it with a headache.
The green grassland is now also in chaos. Xinke personally leads two thousand elites into the green grassland. Under the heavy rain, it is very difficult to create chaos. At least, it cannot be like setting fires everywhere during the day. Xinke has an idea.
As soon as he moved, the soldiers under his command quietly went to the livestock pen in the green grassland, opened the door of the livestock pen first, and then drove all the animals out.
When the animals were frightened, they naturally ran wildly. At first, only some of the animals were frightened, but then it seemed that there was a resonance, and the animals in the entire grassland were boiling. They rushed forward desperately.
Go, regardless of whether there is a fence or a wall in front of you. Although there are many Tyumen people and soldiers in the city, they are still in a hurry due to so many animals.
At this time, the happiest people are naturally the elite soldiers of the Hetao led by Xin Ke. Their hands are tied with a white belt, which is quite eye-catching in the dark night. As long as you see someone in front of you and there is no white belt on your hand, it goes without saying that it is easy.
One knife.
There was a big battle outside the city and chaos inside the city. The attention of the Qiuming soldiers was completely attracted by these two places. The 30,000 soldiers of the Blood Killing Legion who temporarily acted as infantry were able to successfully invade the city, together with Fengjing, Wu Xiaolangjun and others from the northeast.
With more than 200,000 cavalry led by him, the city defense of Green Grassland is about to collapse.
No one knows exactly how many people the Hetao soldiers killed that night. They only know that except for the 150,000 troops led by Memphis, the rest of the soldiers, along with all the Tyumen herdsmen, including Tieling Khan, were all killed in the city.
Tieling Khan was killed by Xin Ke with an axe. In order to show respect for this iron-clad king, Xin Ke ordered his subordinates to dig a hole and bury him. In this way, at least he would not explode in the wilderness and die on his own.
In the royal capital, he could be considered a worthy death.
After dawn, the city was full of corpses of Qiu Ming people. The water on the ground, which was more than a foot deep, was all dyed red with blood. In some places, the blood had solidified and actually blocked the roads.
In the Battle of Qingchuan, Hetao completely defeated Qiu Ming at the cost of nearly 50,000 soldiers. Except at the last moment, Memphis led more than 40,000 remnant soldiers to flee in confusion. The remaining more than 200,000 soldiers and hundreds of thousands of people in the city were all killed.
Hetao Massacre.
"In terms of talent, Memphis and Hengshi Hasan are comparable. However, Hengshi Hasan is unparalleled in his finesse and bravery. Memphis is good at planning and being cautious. Qiu Ming can grow up hard in the gap between Tie Ying and Rou Ran. Memphis's merits
It’s necessary. I just didn’t expect that a famous general of a generation would lose his due decisiveness in killing at the last moment, resulting in a complete defeat.”
"What you said is absolutely true. However, I think Memphis misjudged the situation of our army and fell into a passive position in the end." Haotian said slowly: "Memphis must have also known about Sashan's all-out attack on Loulan, so he guessed that we
Loulan will definitely be rescued as soon as possible, so he does not want to fight with our army in the field. In his opinion, the winning rate of fighting with us in the field is too low, and we may accidentally lose his family fortune. Therefore, the best choice is
We only need to stay in the green grassland for half a month, and maybe things will turn around."
Xuanji took over: "My subordinates believe that it was the destruction of Iron Eagle that made Memphis feel that strong reinforcements were cut off, and that Qiu Ming's power could not compete with our army, so it lost confidence. Therefore, in the subsequent strategic deployment,
Make mistakes frequently."
Tyumen is really unfortunate to have bumped into Hetao, a rising hegemony that is very different from every dynasty in the history of China. The excellence of the commanding skills of the generals in Hetao and the tenacity of the soldiers' fighting will are completely beyond Tyumen's ability to bear.
In order to annihilate even a small tribe, they can pursue them all the way to the northernmost coast. In order to completely eliminate the border troubles in the north, they will not hesitate to kill millions of people outside the Great Wall.
When encountering such an opponent, there are only two best solutions. One is to become his subordinate or friend, follow his footsteps all over the world honestly, and never rebel in his life. Or to avoid it as much as possible.
The sharp edge of the Hetao army fled to a place beyond their reach.
"Lord, Memphis also led nearly 40,000 soldiers to escape. Moreover, when the city was broken, as the heavy rain had just stopped, many Tyumen herdsmen took the opportunity to escape. According to Feng Shuai's estimation, these people plus those who had previously wandered on the prairie
The total number of herdsmen is about one hundred thousand." Xuanji said slowly.
He felt a little emotional in his heart. During the peak period of Qiu Ming, the total population exceeded 1.2 million. Although its strength was not as strong as Rouran in the west and Tieying in the east, it was still a big force for the Shenzhou Dynasty.
However, in just a few years, Tyumen fell from being the victor back then to being the loser now. In the past ten years, the situation has changed, and it is indeed the case.
Haotian thought for a moment: "Ignore them for the time being. The prairie is so vast that we simply can't kill them all. Once the incident with Sashan is over, we will send out cavalry to encircle and suppress them again."
"yes."
"The blood commander is ordered to lead his own army and the 70,000 cavalry under Shan Heqi's command to postpone the southward march and sweep the Rouran grassland to the west. Tell them that the main Kipchak Khan has not taken the initiative to attack, and we will try our best not to extend our troops to his territory.
Directly under the territory. But within the territory of Sir Jiangliu and others, I don’t want to see any herdsmen here.”
Xuanji hesitated for a moment: "Lord, how do you explain it to Feng Shuai?"
"No, he knows this matter well. If we don't teach Rouran a heavy lesson, how will the soldiers explain it? Since Sir Jiangliu and others have the guts to attack our Hetao army, they must
Be mentally prepared to withstand revenge. Well, let the Bloody Commander pay attention to the whereabouts of Memphis."
Xuanji silently wrote down this order. As Haotian said, an explanation must be given to the soldiers who died in the battle and those who were alive. No matter how much the senior officials in Hetao admired Kipchak Khan or how sympathetic they were, they could understand Kipchak Khan's
Difficulties, but the soldiers below did not think so. But Haotian only ordered to wipe out the territory of Syr Jiangliu and others, which shows that Haotian still has some illusions about Kipchak Khan.
"The commander's cavalry regiment immediately moved closer to our army. Although Memphis has fled westward and Rouran has suffered heavy losses, there is no guarantee that there will be no accidents during our march south. With hundreds of thousands of troops, we do not have enough mobile troops and will be relatively passive by then. Huben
The cavalry of the legion also returned immediately."
"Yes." Xuanji responded. This reason is really bad. I think Fengjing also knows what's going on. But with Haotian's temper, this will definitely not deliberately embarrass Fengjing, but hope to transfer him back.
, confess your thoughts to him, and comfort him by the way.
"Shuai Xin immediately led his own legion and the three legions of Longxiang, Snow, Lion and Phoenix Wu to go south to the Sea of Death. We must protect Loulan City..."
"Ahem." Qiu Mu coughed twice, puzzled by the mystery. Although Qiu Mu was also very concerned about the military and political affairs of Hetao, it was for the convenience of writing a biography, and he suddenly interrupted Haotian's order like this.
It already constitutes interference in military and political affairs, which has never happened before.
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Haotian's face, and he forced a smile and said: "Qiu Mu and the others are very interested in the combat experience of the Longxiang Legion during this period, and want to know more about it. In this way, let Yingji'er come back to report the details.
According to the situation, Tang Jian and the others continue to go south."
Mysteries are confusing, and Haotian's preference for the Fifth Young Master is well known. According to the usual practice, Haotian should have called the Fifth Young Master to his side and asked them one by one. Why did he summon Ying Ji'er alone this time, and Qiu Mu almost
Is the woman still so enthusiastic? However, Xuanji has one of the biggest advantages, that is, it will never interfere in Haotian's private life. Therefore, he just nodded silently in agreement.
Following Haotian's order, nearly 100,000 Hetao cavalrymen who had not yet wiped the blood off their swords were involved in the Rouran territory with murderous intent.
It's not like Rouran never thought that the Hetao army would march westward.
The battle in the rocky wasteland brought the relationship between Rouran and the Shenzhou Dynasty to a freezing point. For Hetao, Rouran's betrayal led to the tragic death of more than 100,000 soldiers. Although this had nothing to do with Kipchak Khan, it was Rouran's fault after all.
. They only knew that Sir Jiangliu and others were subordinates of the Kipchak Khan. Without the permission of the Kipchak Khan, why did they mobilize so many troops for the eastward expedition? Therefore, the opinions of the Hetao military were unprecedentedly unified, that is, they must let
Rouran paid the price for their betrayal.
The situation in Rouran is even worse. More than 300,000 troops died on the battlefield, which has shaken the foundation of Rouran. Moreover, now there is Obsburg in the west of Rouran, and the Kingdom of Constantine in the southwest is provoking.
It was already quite a headache for Chahan to deal with the pressure from these two places. But he could not compromise on the Loop. After all, Rouran's losses this time were too great, and he also needed to give an explanation to his people.
It was not that Syr Darya, who was guarding the territory in the eastern part of Rouran, had never thought that Hetao would take advantage of the situation to pursue him, but he still had a bit of luck in his heart, hoping that Hetao would quickly move south to the Sea of Death. Sashan's national strength was not weak and should be able to contain Hetao for a period of time.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Kipchak Khan might have conquered Obsburg, and Dan Toast had also suppressed the Kingdom of Constantine. In that case, Rouran's main force moving eastward would at least add some pressure to the Hetao.
However, the Hetao army still came. They came with the 30,000 cavalry of the Blood Killing Legion, who were almost wiped out in the battle in the Stone Wasteland, and the warlike and bloodthirsty soldiers of the Blood Clan.
In the hands of Syrjiangliu, he only had 20,000 soldiers temporarily recruited by Kipchak Khan from his own direct territory. Together with 10,000 soldiers from Tansen, the total force was only 30,000. Facing the rolling Hetao,
The cavalry, Syrjiangliu and Tansen could only do their best to resist the front of the Hetao and cover the retreat of nearly 200,000 people in the eastern region to the west.
Blood Kill hates Sir Jiangliu and others deeply. Although he also thinks highly of Qipchak Khan's character and talent, he will not let Rouran go because of this. Wherever the army goes, there will never be anyone.
A living person. There is no surrender, and there is no forgiveness. The proud people of Rouran cannot lower their high heads, and the soldiers of Hetao will not stop the swords in their hands.
Although Xi'er Jiangliu and Tansen are also famous generals in Rouran, their military strength and combat effectiveness are at a disadvantage. Facing the violent and arrogant bloodshed, the only thing they can do is to delay the attack of Hetao as much as possible. Under their cover,
Next, the people of Rouran who were lucky enough to escape fled to the west in large numbers.
In order to cover the retreat of the tribesmen, the Rouran soldiers sacrificed their lives, and countless tragic stories were staged on their way to escape. But even so, there were still a large number of weak old, young, women and children who died for various reasons.
He fell on the bloody escape journey.
The rolling green grassland was covered with the corpses of Rouran people. However, the Hetao soldiers showed no mercy at all. They were all soldiers who crawled out of the pile of dead people. They had also experienced such pain. To them,
As far as they were concerned, as long as they were enemies, they would never show mercy. Moreover, so many comrades died innocently in battle, which made the anger in their hearts reach its peak.
Five days later, the Syr River and Tansen at the rear finally arrived at the core area of Rouran, which was already the territory of Kipchak Khan. The pursuers of Hetao also stopped in time. Not out of fear, but out of respect.
.In the Rouran territory at this time, even if they desperately gather troops, they can only recruit 60,000 to 70,000 soldiers at most. This number of troops cannot stop the bloody offensive.
However, the bloody battle chose to stop, and instead went south to sweep across the southeastern and southern areas of Rouran guarded by Chuerdutun.
