Zhao Xun officially accepted the worship of Kucha King Heli at the Kucha King's Palace. That is to say, from the moment Zhao Xun entered the capital, Heli was no longer the former Kucha who controlled a great power.
The king is a special king with a title of king.
What made Heli feel a little relieved was that Zhao Xun did not settle accounts with him. Although he lost a lot, he was very lucky compared to the kings who started Yanqi and Kucha.
Zhao Xun did not immediately take over Kucha, did not immediately reorganize, nor did he collect the soldiers from various cities. Of course, Zhao Xun's personal guards also controlled half of the royal capital. With the cooperation of Heli
Zhao Xun sent a group of troops to various places and began to integrate into various cities.
After stabilizing the Kucha Kingdom, Zhao Xun immediately secretly mobilized his cavalry northward. Of course, when Zhao army soldiers were mobilized throughout Kucha, it was normal to mobilize several two or three thousand soldiers.
In the eyes of others, this was just a Zhao army to control the Kucha Kingdom. But no one noticed that the several armies mobilized to the north slowly gathered in one direction.
In Langcheng, the Zhao army confronted the forefront of the Wusun team. Li Chenfeng, Xu Ye and others were all stationed here. At this moment, even Wei Zilin, who had been in the rear, appeared here.
"General Li, General Xu, and Kucha, the Lord has successfully stabilized Kucha. If nothing unexpected happens, Kucha will be ours. Now, the preparations are ready there,
Next, you will take action here to cover the west side." Wei Zilin said with a smile. His visit to Langcheng this time was mainly to start counting, collecting, and reorganizing more than 7,000 remnants of Kucha Kingdom.
Of course, it is necessary to take over the country with full power. The more than 7,000 remaining soldiers of Kucha will not only control Kucha faster, but will not cause unnecessary riots and abnormal movements in Kucha.
.The soldiers of Kucha Kingdom acted as a forward-drive, which was much better than letting the Zhao army go directly.
Li Chenfeng said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, Lord Wei, we are just suppressing people with power, and we are not really going to fight with the Wusun Kingdom. These damn Wusun people really think that I, Da Zhao, can't do anything to them,
I am so proud of myself. This time, I will definitely want them to look good."
Wei Zilin smiled and said, "When the Feicheng to the west is destroyed and the morale of the Wusun Army is in chaos, the two generals will be able to ride their horses. By then, the thirteen cities in the western part of Kucha will depend on two.
It's all right."
When the commander of Wusun State in Xisha City and the general secretly cursed King Gaochang as a soft boy, the Zhao army in Langcheng opposite sent someone to issue an ultimatum to their side, demanding that the Wusun Army evacuate from Gaochang. The reason for the Zhao army was that
, King Zhao and King Gaochang neither recognized the Gaoqing letter of the country, the predecessor of Gaochang.
Of course, the Zhao army and Gaochang State did not reject the legitimacy and orthodox nature of the previous king Gaoya. No matter what, Gaoya was also the former king of Gaochang State. After the Zhao army was captured, Gaochang State died countless ministers, so these people naturally had to do it for
The King of Kucha directly declared that the so-called letter of state in the hands of the Wusun Kingdom was just a villain who was bribed by the Wusun Kingdom and secretly stamped his seal while the war was in conflict, so he would never admit it.
The Wusun Kingdom naturally would not give any response to this and completely ignored the existence of the Zhao army and Gaochang country. However, the joint army stationed in Langcheng had to act very quickly and immediately began to divide its troops into several routes and advance to the west.
"Is it because their so-called King Zhao stabilized the Kucha Kingdom, and they thought they could defeat us?" In Xisha City, facing the joint army opposite, they entered the territory occupied by their own side, these Wusun generals and officers were also a little surprised.
The head coach Xiang Li said coldly: "No matter what the reason is, what I need is to let the so-called joint army on the opposite side roll back in shame. Now we have 80,000 soldiers here, are we still afraid of them?
, kill all enemy troops entering the country!"
"In addition, we will order all generals and officers close to the east to strictly guard all regions and never let the enemy enter the interior." Xiang Li knew very well that the Wusun army occupied the thirteen cities in the western part of Gaochang State, but the focus of the defense was still centered on Xisha City, close to the city.
Several towns in the east will cause great trouble if the enemy troops on the opposite side enter the hinterland and drive the local residents of Gaochang.
Hell, why did the Zhao army destroy Yanqi, Gaochang and dozens of countries of all sizes not encounter strong resistance from local residents? Thinking of the increasing number of horse thieves and Gaochang people who refused to cooperate in the hinterland,
Xiangli couldn't help but curse himself secretly.
They only saw the effect, but did not pay attention to how much Zhao army paid to achieve its current goal. If they had just simply captured these areas, the Zhao army would have completed the task long ago. It is easy to capture other places, but they must occupy it steadily, and
It is by no means easy to completely annex it.
In order to occupy Yanqi, Gaochang and surrounding small countries immediately stabilized, the Zhao army did not know how much it paid. The various materials transported from the rear were countless. Of course, they paid.
So many, the Zhao army stabilized these areas in the shortest time, and the various gold and silver utensils seized, allowing the Zhao army to obtain a lot of supplements from money. If it weren't for the Zhao army in the Central Plains, they had always been
I was busy developing and not fighting with other princes, I was afraid that this Western Region alone would have made it difficult for the Zhao army to continue.
A few days later, the Xisha City, which the Wusun Army guarded, did not encounter a fierce attack by the Zhao army. However, to the west of Xisha City, outside the thirteen cities in the west, herders who raised livestock in the wild, and small towns all
He was attacked by the coalition forces opposite.
"Waste, a group of waste! In less than five days, more than 5,000 warriors were lost in various places. In addition, our war horses were stolen by the enemy!" At this moment, the head commander of the Wusun Army looked at the scene.
Li was angry and scolded the generals and schoolmen under his command.
"Didn't this coach send you a warning? Let you be careful and be careful! But what about you? You were raided by enemy troops far less than yours."
The angry erection of Xiangli was not because of anything else. But in the past few days, except for the larger Thirteen cities that had not been attacked by the enemy, the defenders stationed in various places were responsible for going to towns and residents.
The soldiers who collected food and grass were all attacked by those small groups of enemy troops. Even several teams transporting food and grass for Xisha City were attacked by the enemy 130 miles west of Xisha City.
When Xiangli arrived after hearing the news, thousands of food and grass were burned down, three thousand guards were killed, and the Gaochang people who were accompanying him disappeared without a trace. I think it must have been rescued by the coalition forces.
"General, it's not that we are not in a good way to fight, but that the enemy is very familiar with the terrain of the western land. They are scattered into small groups, which is no different from local horse thieves. We are guarding the city and cannot pursue it. In addition,
Because our behavior of collecting food and grass on this western part made the residents of Gaochang State very dissatisfied, so they cooperated with the coalition forces to launch a raid on us." A general whispered.
"General, the last general believes that there are not many enemies crossing the boundary. Most of them are confronting Langcheng opposite us. They are also afraid that we will go straight to Langcheng. Therefore, there is no need for us to leave most of our troops behind.
All cities should work together to find out the enemy troops of this team and wipe out them." Another powerful general said, "When our country prepares the logistics and transports the food and supplies to us, we can
Wield the army eastward and defeat it."
"Although the Zhao army seemed to have obeyed the Kucha Kingdom, this not only did not add any help to the Zhao army, but also added pressure to it. The Zhao army had not many troops west of Liangzhou in Zhao, and this time it entered another 30,000 troops.
When it comes to Kucha, it is used to shock Kucha. This is a great opportunity for us. Therefore, we will think that the Zhao army's intentional provocation in this operation is to make us nervous and let our logistics appear
question."
Xiang Li was silent for a little and said in a deep voice: "Okay, there are certain forces stationed in each city to defend the city, and the rest of the soldiers will go out to pursue the city, and they will definitely wipe out these enemy squads. In addition, the thirteen cities in the west will be governed.
Next, anyone who is against our army and contacts with the Zhao army will kill the entire clan. Anyone who reports the traces of the Zhao army to us will be rewarded with great rewards!”
Outside the ancient city of Lan, fifty miles northwest of Xisha City is the orchid grassland. It is lush with water and grassland, and it is the largest grassland suitable for free livestock in the seven cities in the north of the Thirteen Cities in the west. At the same time, it is also the most suitable for free livestock in the western region of Gaochang.
The grassland of war horses. The terrain here is flat and surrounded by rivers. In the past, almost all war horses in the western part of Gaochang were provided here.
Now, after the Wusun Army took control of this western part of Gaochang, it became a place where the Wusun Army raised large-scale livestock. Among them, the most important one was more than 30,000 excellent war horses. They were all spare war horses of the Wusun Army.
and the mounts of the defenders stationed in the city.
Because this place is located behind Xisha City and beside Langu City, the defense here is not very strict. After all, there are no other large army nearby except the Wusun Army. And it is impossible for a small group of horse thieves to rush here if they fall into it.
In action, no matter what, there are also war horses for the army. There are still 4,000 defenders in the camp. In addition, they are not afraid of any horse thieves, and they are not afraid of any horse thieves.
This time, the Wusun Army here paid the price for its carelessness. The Zhao army may not be as good as the current Wusun Army in understanding the terrain of the land occupied by the Wusun Army, but the Wusun Army is also better than the Wusun Army.
Not to go to the residents of Gaochang Country who grew up here.
For the Zhao army, there are not only three thousand enemy troops here, but more importantly, there are more than 30,000 war horses. The Zhao army has never despised the need for war horses. In the Central Plains, Zhao Xun has made the states suitable for raising them.
In the land of horses, horses are raised. Even Zhao Xun ordered to encourage the Ming Dynasty to raise horses. In order to make horses flourish in the Central Plains states, a large number of horses entered the country and reduced the price of horses, which was also an important means to popularize horses.
Xu Ye took the horse and looked at it, and said to himself: "I don't believe it. If you fight here and take away your 30,000 war horses, you can still have the energy to pay attention to the southwest." The Western Regions personally attacked here to put all the things
The Wusun Army's attention attracted the various teams entering the west, and provided convenience for the Zhao army in the Kucha country to the southwest.
He raised his hand gently, and the five thousand Zhao army cavalry behind him pulled out the horizontal sword.
Looking at the camp where smoke was rising in front of him and the horse-wrapper who was still driving horses away in the distance, Xu Ye narrowed his eyes and shouted suddenly: "Kill!"
Suddenly, Xu Ye was ahead, with one horse leading the way, and then the Zhao cavalry rode their horses and charged, following closely behind. Five thousand cavalry rolled forward like huge angry waves, and rushed towards the Wusun camp with the overturning waves.
When the Zhao army approached, the Wusun Army, who was preparing dinner in the camp, finally realized the abnormality. In their opinion, the rumbling sound of the horse galloping at the beginning should be the sound of the horse-wrapping her side being ready to collect the war horses and drive them away. She never expected that it would
An enemy army appeared here.
"Wuwuwu..." With the sound of a long horn, thousands of Wusun troops finally emerged from the camp. The leader was the guard here, a fierce man with yellow beards all over his face. At this moment,
He rode a tall horse, rushed to the front with a knife, and was still cursing.
Because although there were many knights coming, they did not give up their banners, and they did not reorganize and reunite in an orderly manner. Therefore, the commander of the Wusun Army thought that the other party was gathering with many horse thieves and came to fight the horse.
"Where did the thief come from? He dares to hit me..."
Twenty steps apart, the chief general of the Wusun Army saw the enemy general and immediately roared and asked a question, preparing to use the identity of the Wusun Army to shock the other party. After all, there were four or five thousand knights fighting on the other side, which was comparable to himself.
There are many here.
"Looking for death!" Xu Ye shouted coldly, raised his arms and threw his gun. A sharp roar, like a ghost crying and a wolf howl, a black light suddenly appeared, piercing the chest of the Wusun Army commander and carrying his body from the horse's back
He lifted up and fell to the ground with a thump.
Countless war horses rushed by, and the Wusun Army's commander turned into a pile of rotten meat in the blink of an eye. The Wusun Army's commander was also a powerful general in the Wusun Army, otherwise he would not have been responsible for the daily stocking of these war horses. But
Because he underestimated the attacking cavalry, he was killed by Xu Ye before he could take action!
The commander of the Wusun Army was killed by the attacking enemy before he even went to fight, which immediately shocked the entire Wusun Army and his morale fell. At this moment, these Wusun Army soldiers also discovered that the attacking knights were definitely not what.
Horse thieves are standard troops, and they are elite troops.
However, at this moment, these Wusun troops no longer need to know whether the attack was an army or a horse thief, a member of the Zhao army or a member of Gaochang. Because the two sides fought, the Wusun troops suffered a great loss and were far from being the opponent's opponent's opponent.
The weapons in the hands of the incoming knights are extremely sharp and diverse. Guns, crossbows, horizontal swords, and everything is fine.
After Xu Ye killed the enemy's chief general, how could he not seize this opportunity and immediately ordered the entire army to attack fiercely. The Zhao cavalry waved horizontal swords and fired crossbows, and wherever he passed, flesh and blood flew everywhere.
In just half an hour, the Wusun army in Languyuan had all the troops. Xu Ye killed all the soldiers of the Wusun army without leaving any prisoners. And those horse-herders in Gaochang State who were captured by the Wusun army,
He was called to drive away the horses.
In order to keep these war horses, Xu Ye also planned this operation for many days. Thirty thousand war horses were divided into multiple strands and were quietly hidden in the surrounding mountains, forests and valleys. Moreover, Xu Ye also gathered them around him.
The strongholds of the few horses will become areas where Xu Ye preserves materials and temporarily repairs.
After killing all the Wusun Army, some soldiers were allowed to take the horses and follow the predetermined destination first. And he, with most of the remaining people, ran in a grand manner in another direction.
You know, the ancient city of Lan, fifty miles away, is home to tens of thousands of Wusun troops.
The only thing that made Xu Ye feel more at ease was that the Wusun army had not sent a signal until the end of this operation. The spies arranged around him had never noticed that the Wusun army had escaped. The slower it could be discovered by the Wusun army, so naturally
It is the best. Even if it is discovered, the Wusun army in Langucheng will follow the traces of Xu Ye's departure, and ignore the team that drove away horses. This is also the coming of Xu Ye's night
The reason for the timely journey is that night falls, even the Wusun Army will not continue to deliberately patrol the movements outside the city.
Xu Ye knew very well how much the Zhao army had paid for this Western Regions. In Zhao Xun's words, if we can get some benefits when we start a war with the countries in the Western Regions, we must make the enemy pay for our efforts.
.These war horses were ridden by the Wusun Army from the Wusun Kingdom and now they fall into their own hands. They can not only increase 30,000 war horses for their own side, but also reduce the Wusun Army by 10,000 or 20,000 cavalry.
Langucheng received the order from the commander Xiangli army to investigate the horse thieves and foreign cavalry in the territory, and was preparing to retrieve the war horses from Languyuan. It was only when Langucheng discovered that it had already turned into ruins. At this time, it had been two days since the Zhao army attacked the place.
After a long time, the guards of Langucheng were almost scared to death and immediately sent someone to investigate. The soldiers and generals reported the news to the commander.
But Xiangli, located in Xisha City, was about to go crazy at this time. Apart from Languyuan, in the past ten days, he had been attacked by dozens of places under his control, including grain collection teams and transportation of food and supplies.
There are also patrol teams, at least dozens or hundreds, and at most thousands of soldiers were killed.
When she received the news from Langucheng, Xiangli said nothing and directly sent back the military order to make the Langucheng defender apologize for his death. But the generals and schoolmen around Xiangli knew that Xiangli was already real at this moment
The edge of the outbreak.
After sending back the military order to execute a guard general, Xiang Li felt that he had vented some anger a little, and immediately roared loudly: "I'll order the guards of each city to increase patrol immediately and must pursue the traces of these enemy troops.
If anyone has such a situation in the territory of Lan Gucheng, it is not necessary to repay this general, and apologize for his death!"
"The traces of this enemy are among several cities in the east, so that the eastern cities can cooperate with the cleaning. If these bastards are not removed, we will sooner or later be dragged away by the Zhao army. This will be the future.
The actions of the country are extremely unfavorable. We must never lose our advantages."
