Chapter 580

"A troop of cavalry broke out and looked east!"

Wan Fu, who failed to intercept Gan Yanshou's cavalry, came to report to wokuotai.

"How many people left?"

"More than a hundred people."

"Just a hundred people. If they leave, let them go. Khan's cavalry in Yanqi might kill them

Wokuotai didn't care much about the cavalry team of Gan Yanshou.

Yelv Dashi moved his neck and looked at the eagle in the air: "the reinforcements of the Han Empire will come soon. It is said that Khan was repulsed by the Han army when he attacked Cheshi state. "

Wokuotai was really shocked to learn that Tiemuzhen had been defeated, but that was all: "even if they can beat back Da Da Han, they can't eliminate Da Han's timid Xue army. A troop of cavalry has been sent to the Tianshan Mountains in northern Mobei, and then to Yanqi state, which is enough to make up for the loss of the Khan

In order to appease yeludashi and keep him loyal, wokuotai knew that he could not let the Ministry think that Tiemuzhen was not an opponent of the expeditionary army of the Han Empire.

At present, Tiemuzhen suffered some losses in the face of the Han Empire expeditionary army, but it was not a total annihilation.

If the expeditionary forces of the Han Empire wanted to annihilate the main force of Tiemuzhen, they had to pay an extremely heavy price, not a general price.

"Besides, the guy in Chagatai should be here."

Wokuo Tai looks to the West.

In the west, the Khan of Chagatai Khanate and the second son of Tiemuzhen led the army of Chagatai Khanate and the captured serchu and huarazi model servants to march on Luntai.

Yili River Valley is not far away from Luntai, but it will take time to bypass Tianshan Mountain because of the barrier of Tianshan Mountain.

"Wokuotai is really unlucky. In order to help me, my Khanate was destroyed by the western regions. This time, I will help him once, and the kindness can be regarded as clearing up. "

Chagatai drove serchu, huarazimu and other Central Asian servants from the army and hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep.

They were the cavalry captured by the Chagatai Khanate after the defeat of the Seljuk Empire and the huarazi kingdom in the battle of Ili Valley.

In addition to 700000 soldiers from Central Asia, Chagatai brought his own army of 100000 Chagatai Khanate, who gathered in Kucha state in the western region under the order of temuzhen.

Chagatai's army is all over the mountains and fields, and all you can see is cattle, sheep and horses.

All the cavalry in the western regions gathered quickly with Luntai city as the center, involving several princes of the Han Empire and several Mongol Khan.

Luntai city became the center of storm rain.

Huo'an killed and retreated the Mongolian army who attacked Luntai city. However, the bombardment of Xiangyang artillery on Luntai city was never over. Instead, it continued to bombard the city. The fireball burst and the fire spread in Luntai city. The defenders had to be distracted to put out the fire.

"After the war, even if the western regions' prefectures still exist, it will take two or three years for us to recover our strength. Finally, the pace of our march into Central Asia has been delayed."

Huo'an stands in the sword and confronts the wokuotai and Yelu Dashi under the city.

They all have the determination to dominate Central Asia.

However, the Chagatai Khanate took advantage of their fighting.

Yellow sand filled, the huge armored war elephant with heavy strides left huge footprints on the Gobi.

A group of Han cavalry marched in the yellow sand, gravel flying, hitting armor piercing iron, the flag was damaged.

The Xuanjia army had to take off the armor, put the armor on the back of the pack horse, and then put on the temporary armor when fighting.

The same is true of Leyi's Yanjia, all of them light.

Iron hawk scouts soar in the air. Once the enemy's cavalry is found, all legions will be ready for battle.

Military adviser Sun Bin was talking to the local people and seemed to want to find out the change of wind direction.

The time is very important.

……

"The transmission array of Luntai city in the Han Empire has not been opened yet?"

In the Grand Duchy of Moscow, yekaterina was concerned about the opening of the transmission array of Luntai city after discovering the change of the Golden Horde state.

As one of the two world trade nodes in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Luntai City, the capital of the western regions, opened a transmission array with St. Petersburg. At this time, the transmission array had not been restored, indicating that Luntai city was still besieged by Mongolian cavalry.

If the transmission array of Luntai fails, it will be difficult for yekaterina to go to the Han Empire. The cities between the Grand Duchy of Moscow and the Han Empire have been blocked by the golden tent Khanate and the Mongolian Empire.

Ekaterina thought it necessary for her to go to the Han Empire and make sure of one thing.

"According to the news from the players of the Han Empire, the Han Empire organized an expeditionary force of at least 400000 people into the western regions to support Luntai city. If the Han army can lift the siege of Luntai City, then the transmission array between St. Petersburg and Luntai will be reopened. "

"Let me know as soon as the transmission array of luntaicheng is opened."

"Yes."

Ekaterina was a little upset.

The Khanate plundered the gold and silver around the Volga River Basin, then narrowed its sphere of influence and chose to avoid her front, which made yekaterina confused.……

The central army of the Han Army, Hua Mulan, sent a Warhawk to explore Luntai and came back with Huo an's note.

Huo Qing can't wait to get up and know his brother's safety.

"Sure enough, huo'an was besieged in Luntai City, with at least 100000 enemy soldiers encircling Luntai city."

Chu Tian took down the note, and Huo an only used a short sentence to describe the situation of the wheel platform of the capital of the western regions.

"There are more than 100000 people on the other side, and there are at least tens of thousands of defenders in Luntai. Why did he not choose to break through? If he chooses to break out of the encirclement, then wo Kuo Tai can't stop him... "

Huo Qing is relieved to learn that her brother huo'an is OK, and doubts about huo'an's choice.

"Only he has the prestige to guard Luntai. If he chooses to leave Luntai, the popularity and morale of Luntai will drop. Even if a ministry is left to guard the city, it will not help. Luntai can't be lost. Otherwise, the western regions' prefectures will be destroyed, leaving only Cheshi state We can't keep garrison in the Cheshi state all the time. The crisis of the western region's capital will be solved by the western region's governor's office. "

Chu Tian knew that Huo an was in charge of Luntai in person to pacify the people.

"Oh."

Huo Qing is still worried.

"It seems that Juan sent a cavalry to join us. Maybe the general of that cavalry will tell us more about Luntai city and your brother."

Chu Tian learned that a small group of cavalry succeeded in breaking through the encirclement.

At this time, Sun Bin rode a horse with a worried look on his face.

"What's the matter with the commander?"

It is rare for Chu Tian to see Sun Bin and feel uneasy because of the situation.

Sun Bin said, "it's windy and sandy here. You need to be careful of Tiemuzhen and speed. You should attack the front and back with the flying sand and stones."

Chu Tian knew that Sun Bin had a certain ability to predict danger, and his worry was reasonable.

In the war of Cheshi state, Tiemuzhen used the strong wind to launch an attack. Once the sand and rocks were flying, the Han Army in the downwind direction would be very passive.

Sun Bin was aware of this.

"Inform the front and rear armies to be careful of the sandstorm and protect the water and arrows."

Chu Tian and others always keep water in the water bag when they march.

Without food, camels and horses could be killed to satisfy their hunger. Without water, the expeditionary army could not move. Without arrows, they could not fight back against Mongolian cavalry who were good at riding and shooting.

Two warhawks flew to Huo Qubing's front army and Lao Qin's rear army respectively to remind them to pay attention to the sandstorm.

Sun Bin paid attention to the change of the flag in the Army: "bad, the weather changes."

"Is the wind blowing again..."

Chu Tian's heart sank.

The expedition to Luntai is not so easy. If you are not careful, 400000 Han troops and millions of cattle and sheep will all be buried in the Gobi and desert.

"I'll lead my troops to the front army for support!"

Muke held back a fire and was full of hatred for the Mongol Empire besieging Huoan, so he urged the nanzhong army to support the former army.

Chu Tian didn't say anything about the South Central Army's support for the former army. He was also worried that the former army would be attacked by Tiemuzhen.

Tiemuzhen was defeated in the Cheshi Kingdom, and he was expected to have a fury in his chest and wanted to inflict heavy damage on the Han army.

Under the leadership of Muke, Qin Liangyu and Baigan soldiers, Wu Tu Gu and Tengjia soldiers accelerated their march and caught up with Huo Qubing's army as soon as possible.

When the former army, Huo Qubing, Wang xuance, Li Siye and others received the warning from Chu Tian, the dust had begun to fill the sky, and only the camels accompanying the army took it calmly.

Huo Qubing, Li Siye, Wang xuance and others are familiar with the Gobi and desert in the western regions. Although they feel difficult, they still March to Luntai according to the established route.

"General, please be the vanguard

Zhao chuannu, Huo Qubing's deputy general, volunteered to be the vanguard to test the enemy horses that might appear in front of the army.

Wang xuance wrung his eyebrows: "at this time there is a strong wind, so we should stop marching. After the sandstorm, we should march on Yanqi and Luntai, so that we can avoid Tiemuzhen's surprise attack."

Li Siye was also impatient: "Luntai is besieged by the Mongolian army and is in danger of being occupied by the enemy. Once we are indecisive, Luntai is bound to lose. It's better to take advantage of the wind and sand to attack Yanqi state and defeat Tiemuzhen in one fell swoop, in order to avenge his attack on the capital of the western regions! "

"Tiemuzhen is good at cavalry. If you rush for hundreds of miles, you must be on guard. I'm afraid it will get into the mouth of a tiger. Please think twice about military affairs."

Wang xuance thinks that Li Siye's proposal is too risky.

In front of the cavalry generals who are good at the hundred mile rush, it is extremely dangerous to carry out the hundred mile rush tactics.

Huo Qubing, as the leader of this army, will make a final decision on his proposal.

Huo Qubing has always adopted the tactic of circuitous surprise attack. However, after a long-term contest with speed, Huo Qubing found that Mongolian cavalry were prepared for such tactics.

If Huo Qubing is the only one with 40000 soldiers, Huo Qubing still dares to gamble. But in the rear of Huo Qubing, there are Chu Tian's central army and the rear army of valiant old Qin.Once the former army fails in its hundred mile attack, it may lead to the collapse of the central army and the rear army.

"Since the general has asked us to be careful, we will stop our march for the time being and wait for the sandstorm to pass and the Chinese army will follow."

Huo Qubing rarely chose the relatively conservative tactics.

Both Li Si ye and Zhao chuannu were brave enough to attack. At this time, they were dissatisfied with Wang xuance's relatively conservative proposal.

"After the sandstorm, the Chinese army will keep up with us. We can report to the general and ask for a surprise attack on Yanqi state to open up the passage to Luntai."

Seeing the disappointment of the people, Wang xuance offered to launch a surprise attack after the sandstorm.

Wang xuance was as crazy as Huo Qubing, Zhao chuannu and Li Siye. The first thing they considered was to attack, and then to defend.

This time, for the sake of the safety of the 400000 expeditionary army, Wang xuance encouraged Huo Qubing to choose conservative tactics. Otherwise, Wang xuance might have gone directly to attack Yanqi as Li Siye said.

The strong wind blows the sand dunes. Tiemuzhen rides his horses and leads the mighty cavalry troops to cross the sand dunes.

Tiemuzhen's face was not very good-looking, and damaged a member of Xuejun general bolhu. Tiemuzhen went on a hunger strike for two days.

The Han army gathered its forces in Cheshi state and began to advance towards Yanqi state, which was about to arrive. Tiemuzhen had to stop the Han Empire expeditionary army from advancing.

Tiemuzhen wanted to lead the expeditionary forces of the Han Empire to the western regions and annihilate them.

However, even if the Han Empire expeditionary force was led to the western regions, Tiemuzhen found it difficult to swallow this huge expeditionary force.

"The Gobi and desert will be the places where they will be buried. I will make an agreement with me that at least 100000 Han troops will be left here."

Tiemuzhen's whip points to the marching Huo Qubing army.
