Chapter 564

"The Bingzhou army stayed in Hetao and recruited soldiers and horses to supplement the losses. Lord desert south, continue to stay in desert south to guard against the cavalry going south. "

Chu Tian found that all the battlefields of the Han Empire were in chaos. On the contrary, Hetao and Monan were quickly pacified and became his sphere of influence.

The Lords of desert south had been wavering. Chu Tian sent troops to pacify Monan. These lords took refuge in Chu Tian's command.

He could transfer some of his troops to the western regions and drive Tiemuzhen back to Mobei.

The main force of this battle in the western regions is Chu Tian's guards.

Although there were some thorny problems at mingguan, mingguan thought that he had the ability to deal with it. Apart from being unable to send legions to the western regions, Ming Guan did not need reinforcements.

Chu Tian can probably understand the troubles of mingguan.

Generally speaking, the nomadic, fishing and hunting civilizations born in Mobei and Liaodong are the most powerful.

The Huns, Turks and Mongols in Mobei and Koguryo, Khitan and Nuzhen in Eastern Liaoning are famous.

The Ming pass occupied Liaodong and the local fishing and hunting tribes were fierce, so the pressure faced by mingguan was unprecedented.

Liaodong army does not need additional reinforcements, and it is not easy to suppress many tribes in Liaodong by its own strength.

The valiant old Qin also returned to Chu Tian and could send 100000 to 200000 troops into the western regions to help Huo an pacify the western regions.

The governor of the capital of the western regions was an unfortunate force. All sides were enemies.

First of all, the Hexi corridor should be recovered and the passageway from Yumen pass to Luntai should be opened.

"All the guards were sent to Jiuquan County, and then they went out of Yumen pass to recover Dunhuang, and the subsequent troops were transferred directly from the Central Plains to Luntai City, the capital of the western regions."

Chutian plans to use the guards to open up the Hexi corridor.

During the expedition to the western regions, the transportation cost was extremely high. Chu Tian could not bring a million troops to the past, so he had to select the elite and go to the western regions to rescue the capital.

After all, the western regions were one of the territory of the Han Empire, and nothing could be conquered. After losing the transmission array of Luntai City, it will be a longer and more expensive expedition to recover the western regions.

The first group of vanguard expeditionary forces were the Guard Corps under the command of Chu Tian himself.

The follow-up troops may be either Leyi's Jizhou army or Wei Qing's Youzhou army.

Mr. Qin promised to dispatch one or two regiments of more than 100000 people for follow-up support.

With the force of the Guard Corps, the Liangzhou army of Xu Fengnian, the Eastern Han army of huangfusong and Zhuhe, they were enough to recover Dunhuang county.

"You must take good care of Monan. There are hundreds of thousands of Mongolian horsemen in Mobei. As long as Tiemuzhen and others use the transmission array to return to Mobei, they can go south at any time. "

Chu Tian was worried that Tiemuzhen, who was not sure of his whereabouts, would suddenly return to Mobei and lead the Mobei cavalry to the south, so he asked Yue Fei, Li Mu, Wei Qing and others to guard the desert south, and could not let the Mongolian cavalry enter the Hetao Plain any more.

This time, there are three generals in desert south, which is as stable as a rock.

Moreover, Chu Tian could continuously transfer troops from southern desert to the western regions as a follow-up main force.

The transmission array is extremely convenient, but the consumption of gold and silver is a little exaggerated

If possible, Chu Tian would rather take fewer troops to the western regions. The more troops there are, the greater the burden on logistics.

Even if the Eastern Han Dynasty was unified, it would be difficult to mobilize millions of troops in one expedition.

Yumen pass, Xiongguan, which was bombarded by Xiangyang artillery, is full of potholes. Arrow tower, watchtower and Chengmen tower have been razed to the ground by Xiangyang artillery.

Although Xu Fengnian once succeeded in attacking the Xiangyang cannons of the Mongolian army, the Arabian craftsmen of the Mongolian army soon produced a batch of new Xiangyang cannons, and they kept throwing huge stones weighing two or three hundred jin at Yumen pass day and night.

The fierce boulders smashed on the wall, and many garrison soldiers were killed by the boulders. The death was terrible.

Under the continuous bombardment of Xiangyang artillery, the wall with signs of weathering appeared spider web cracks, and the bricks and rammed soil layer fell off.

Xiangyang gun also has the effect of deterring morale. The morale of the garrison is low due to the continuous bombardment of Xiangyang artillery.

The Mongolian army outside the pass was prepared for the sneak attack by the garrison. Therefore, when Xu Fengnian went out of the city to attack again, he fought with the Roman army and other servants. Each had his own losses and could not destroy the Xiangyang artillery.

"If you keep going like this, you won't have to go through the Yumen pass for ten days."

Xu Fengnian found that the wall of Yumen pass was destroyed.

Although his Xiliang army was constantly repairing and strengthening the walls, the temporary female walls were not as strong as the original walls, and Xiangyang cannons could easily destroy them.

"Chu Zimu and Lao Qin have agreed to send an army to the western regions to open up the Hexi corridor. As long as we stick to it for a while, the end of the Mongolian Empire will come."

Xu Fengnian took a team of Xiliang generals to inspect the wall. He saw that the walls were full of potholes and dents made by huge stones thrown by Xiangyang cannons, which was shocking.

At least thousands of huge stones were thrown at Yumenguan by the Mongolian army, and even the magnificent wall could not bear the constant bombardment.

Thousands of garrisons were killed in the shelling of Xiangyang artillery, which was more of a blow to morale. There are not many defenders who can risk being crushed to death by boulders. Not to mention seeing the miserable situation of our companions.Ma Chao followed Xu Fengnian and saw the morale of the garrison soldiers in Yumenguan pass depressed, so he said to Xu Fengnian: "my Lord, Ma Chao is willing to lead a team of cavalry out of the city, burn down the stone throwing machine and solve the siege of Yumen pass!"

"Mongolian cavalry has long been on guard and should not take risks easily. Wait patiently for reinforcements to arrive, and the crisis will naturally be lifted. "

Xu Fengnian was worried about the loss of Ma Chao, and did not agree with Ma Chao.

The battle of Yumenguan was extremely tragic. Any general might die. Several of Han's generals were killed, and some of Xu Fengnian's were killed. One of them was killed by a huge stone fired by Xiangyang artillery while defending the city wall.

Even if Ma Chao reached the peak, he did not dare to say that he could survive the bombardment of Xiangyang artillery.

"The Mongolian army has attacked the city again!"

"My Lord, be careful!"

The scouts in charge of observing the movement of the Mongolian army send out warning!

Boom!

A boulder smashed down, the two elusive garrison smashed into meat sauce, the impact force let the boulder fragmentation, gravel sputtering!

Boom!

It was a huge stone, and the surface was still emitting fire and smoke. After hitting the wall, the gravel rolled with fire!

"Cover your mouth and nose!"

Xu Fengnian's scalp was numb, and the smoke of the wolf smoke not only choked the nose, but also mixed with herbs with nerve paralysis effect, which weakened the fighting capacity of the garrison.

The Xiangyang guns of the Mongolian army not only shot boulders, but also fireballs and smoke!

Fire spread in Yumen pass, smoke billows, this ancient Xiongguan reduced to purgatory.

Mongolian siege leader Ali Haibin, manufacture 50 Xiangyang guns, continue to bombard Yumen pass, launched the most ferocious bombardment on Yumen pass!

Xiangyang cannon will be hundreds of Jin of boulders, rolling fireballs, lit smoke into the Yumen pass, Yumen pass into a sea of fire!

The Mongol army, with its master general and Xiangyang cannons, has a strong siege capability and is no longer limited to field operations.

"The burning fire is like the catastrophe of the end."

The Roman hero krasumu, who was exiled in the East, saw the fierce attack and defense.

The Mongol army used all the means to attack Yumen pass and turned the grand pass into a sea of fire. Krasu was amazed by its ability to attack the city.

The Han army of Yumen pass is also tenacious. They have been holding on to now, and Yumen pass has not been occupied.

It is estimated that the Yumen pass war is over, and there are only ruins left in Yumen pass.

"Ready to take Yumen pass!"

Ali Haibin pulled out his sword and ordered the legions to capture Yumen pass.

Yumen pass has delayed them too much time.

The existence of Yumen pass allows Han Army to support the western regions at any time, and it must be conquered.

Boom!!!

With a huge noise, a section of the Yumenguan wall can not bear the high-intensity bombardment, disintegrated and filled with dust!

There is a gap in the magnificent Yumen pass!

"The time has come to conquer Yumen pass, everyone has a reward!"

Ali Hague issued the order to attack, the Mongolian army, the Roman army and other servants joined the army, more than 100000 people, converged into a wave, impacting the gap of Yumen pass!

Some of the walls of Yumen pass collapsed, which made all the defenders in great confusion. The solid wall they relied on collapsed. Yumen pass became a smooth road. The Mongolian army and its servants could attack the gap and enter the pass from the gap!

Huangfusong and Zhuhe, the veteran generals of the Eastern Han Dynasty, led the troops to block the gap at the first time, and fought with the coming Roman Legion at the gap!

The eagle flag of the Roman Empire and the battle flag of the Han Empire fought each other in unexpected forms!

The Mongolian army not only attacked the gap, but also set up a ladder, climbed the wall, and exerted pressure on both sides!

Yumen pass guards into madness, if more and more enemy troops attack the gap or on the wall, then Yumen pass will be lost!

"The morale of the enemy is high!"

After joining Chu Tian, Ju Yi soon took part in the fierce battle of Yumenguan. He saw the dense Mongolian army, and his scalp was numb.

After a continuous battle, 800 Xiandeng dead men, less than 600, followed Ju Yi and loaded them with crossbows to kill the enemy.

However, the role of hundreds of Xiandeng dead men in large-scale battle is limited. The arrow rain thrown by thousands of Mongolian archers can kill some of them.

Boom!

There was another loud noise. A fireball fell into the dead men of Xiandeng. The fireball burst and the flames splashed everywhere. More than a dozen of them were covered with spattering flames and screamed!

The smoke produced by the fire disturbed the garrison. Ju Yi and many of the first soldiers were blackened and their sight was affected.

"The catapult of the Mongol Empire..."

Ju Yi looked down at the Yumen pass. Under the control of the soldiers, 50 huge objects loaded with huge stones, fireballs and smoke were constantly shooting at Yumen pass.

The fireball cuts through the sky, dragging the black smoke to fall on the wall!Boom!

There was another loud noise, and the flames were splashing!

"Morale continues to decline Men and women, hold on for three days, and reinforcements will arrive

Feng Yi, the head of the army and Dashu General of the chopping army, found that the morale of the army was rapidly declining due to the deterrent effect of Xiangyang gun and the collapse of some walls of Yumen pass. He could only use the specific effect to stabilize the morale temporarily.

Because of Feng Yi's ability, the morale of the chopping army slowed down and began to recover slowly.

However, the situation is still not optimistic. The morale of the chopping army remains at a low level, while that of Xu Fengnian and Han Sui is lower.

With low morale, the Han army is still defending Yumen pass!

Giant rocks, fireballs, and wolf smoke are like meteorites falling from the sky, and the Yumen pass sends out a lament.

The Roman army used western catapults to shoot the garrison of Yumen pass.

Yumen pass originally deployed a lot of bed crossbows, which were almost destroyed by Xiangyang guns. The Han Army lacked effective means to fight back the catapults.

The battle of Yumenguan was extremely tragic, especially the northern army's five schools and Sanhe cavalry who blocked the gap, under the command of huangfusong and Zhuji, blocked the Roman Legion!

The Roman army's heavy infantry throw javelins. The sharp javelin has a strong ability to break armour. It penetrates the shield of the Han Army and nails the soldiers of the infantry battalion of the Fifth Academy of the northern army on the collapsed wall!

The barracks commander of the five schools of the northern army fired back. The Roman soldiers were shot by the composite bow of the East!

The Legion of Roman citizens, respected in the Roman Empire, was regarded as cannon fodder by the Mongolian army. They attacked Yumen pass recklessly and intended to break through the gap of Yumen pass and March straight in!

Dozens of Mongolian generals put into the fierce attack and defense, urging the servants captured from the third national war to attack Yumen pass.

Yumenguan war, has become white hot!!

With each breath, hundreds of soldiers were killed. The sound of killing shook the Gobi!

Catapults and catapults are roaring, thousands of arrows are falling, and infantry are fighting hand to hand with shield!

Zhang Ji, a valiant old Qin general in Xiliang, was ordered to follow Huangfu song and Zhu Zhen to participate in the Yumenguan battle, holding a long gun in his hand and guarding the gap.

The Roman army, the Arab Empire's servants and the kharazim's servants joined the army. Urged by the Mongolian governor's corps, the Roman Legion, the Arab Empire's servants and the kharazim's servants joined the army.

More than a dozen Roman heavy infantry surrounded Zhang Ji and stabbed him with a dagger. Zhang Ji gave a big drink and swept away all the long swords!

The Roman heavy infantry looked at each other. One of the Roman heavy infantry went up with a shield, trying to block the long spear of the eastern general in front of him and fight for the opportunity to kill the eastern general for his companions.

However, they underestimated Zhang Ji's force. Zhang Ji's spear was like a poisonous snake. He swindled the Roman heavy infantry into holding a shield and then killed him from the other side!

The rest of the Roman heavy infantry were appalled.

Zhang Ji took the initiative to attack this group of Roman soldiers, sweeping with a long gun, and killing two or three more Roman soldiers!

"These blondes have a little bit of brute force."

Zhang Ji found that it was not easy to kill Roman citizen soldiers, who were high-level heavy infantry with strong melee fighting ability.

Krasu saw that Zhang Ji was killing all directions in the Roman Legion. Like Xu Huang, he was a strong general in the Han army. So he raised his hand, and dozens of Roman archers and stone throwers targeted Zhang Ji, who was fighting with Roman heavy infantry.

"From the father!"

Zhang Xiu killed a huarazi model servant to join the army. She caught sight of Zhang Jilian's arrows. The stone throwers of the Roman Legion threw sharp stones and wounded Zhang Ji. She immediately went to rescue him.

A team of Roman heavy infantry intercepted Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu was so anxious that she killed Roman soldiers.
