"The troops of the Grand Duchy of Moscow have crossed the Don River and set out on the left bank!"
The main forces of the golden tent Khanate of Tiemuzhen and shuchi were close to the main force of yekaterina. The vanguard scouts and cavalry of the two sides constantly broke out conflicts, killing hundreds of people.
The army of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, which was originally marching along the right bank, suddenly turned to the left bank to defend after the army of the golden tent Khanate approached, cutting off the connection between the golden tent Khanate and the Hun empire.
"They want to fight on the left bank The left bank is mostly jungle and swamp, and the cavalry will be weakened. It seems that she has figured out the place for the decisive battle
Tiemuzhen learned that yekaterina's army turned to the left bank, and probably guessed yekaterina's intention.
Tanmachi of Muhuali is familiar with the terrain of the Don River Basin, and knows that yekaterina's field is not suitable for Tiemuzhen's cavalry.
Shu Chi rode on his horse and discussed with Tiemuzhen: "father Khan, we 700000 soldiers have devoted our national strength to come here, and the burden of food, cattle and sheep is too heavy. Even if there are many rivers and swamps on the left bank, it does not mean that cavalry can not be used. We have an advantage in numbers, and even if it is consumed positively, we can defeat the army of the Grand Duchy of Moscow. "
Tiemuzhen's face was overcast and uncertain, and the choice before him was very simple: whether to cross the Don River and fight the army of the Grand Duchy of Moscow in the fields on the left bank of the Don river.
"Muhuali, you go to find out the width of the opposite battlefield to see if it is suitable for cavalry combat."
"Yes."
Muhuali himself led a team of red horsemen to the left bank to investigate and fight with the scouts on the other side.
Yekaterina's army, taking advantage of the night, suddenly crossed the Don River and changed the location of the decisive battle, so that Tiemuzhen, who had thought that the battle was on the right bank, flew into the air.
"The middle is flat, the terrain on both sides is broken, and there are many jungle swamps. Therefore, the infantry in the middle must block the frontal attack of Mongolian cavalry."
"Harar, you lead the vanguard army, after the war, slow down the impact of Mongolian cavalry, I personally command the Chinese army."
"Nevsky of the ice river and Dmitri of the Don river, each of you commands 100000 people to guard the terrain on both sides that is not conducive to the Mongolian cavalry's charge. If the other side's central army is too deep, separate troops to attack them."
Yekaterina sent Harar's varangi guards, as well as 30000 heavy infantry and crossbow men of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, as the vanguard corps, located in front of the plain in the middle. Among the heavy infantry of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, there are heavy armed long handled axe soldiers with hand to hand combat, which are used to deal with cavalry.
"The width of the whole battlefield is only about 30 Li, of which the front is flat enough for cavalry to attack, less than 10 Li. The two sides are dominated by jungles and swamps. Cavalry may need to dismount to fight, unable to attack the enemy in a roundabout way. Unless the left and right sides are defeated, it is possible to attack the Grand Duchy of Moscow from the flanks or from the rear. "
Muhuali quickly explored the terrain on the left bank of the Don river, and yekaterina's intention was completely exposed to the army of the golden tent Khanate.
"She despised my cavalry. Cross the Don River and fight yekaterina on the left bank. "
After discovering yekaterina's intention, temuzhen chose to fight with yekaterina on the left bank of the Don River in order to completely annihilate the main force of Moscow Grand Duchy.
The Golden Horde was unable to sustain a long war.
A team of Mongolian cavalry crossed the Don river.
Timur, the general of the Shixue army, is crossing the river with his horse. He looks at the narrow terrain on the opposite side and is not worried.
In the opposite field, there is still terrain for Mongolian cavalry to attack. Tiemuzhen, Timur, and the cavalry bonus of speediness was superior to all the Grand Duchy of Moscow.
And even when dismounted, Mongolian cavalry are still excellent archers and can be used as infantry.
"Xiao Chuo seems to have been captured by Chu zimou. If she has a chance, she can rescue her. Her ability can improve the combat effectiveness of the army."
During this period, Timur finally found out that after the war of Mobei, Xiao Chuo and Xiao talin of Liao state were both captured by Chu Tian. However, Yelu abaoji led the remnants of Liao state and did not want to leave their familiar East and flee back to Horqin grassland.
"The short-sighted and stupid Yelu abaoji, he did not know that the eastern part of the land had been divided up. If he stayed in Horqin grassland, he would only lose his life. Only when we come to the West and take advantage of the complicated situation here, can we open up the situation. "
Timur heard that Yelu abaoji and Wanyan Aguda were still in their familiar places and did not want to leave their original land and chose to stay in the Eastern Han Dynasty. He could not help but sniff.
It is not easy for them to open up the situation in the Eastern Han District, because the territory of the Eastern Han District has begun to solidify. In the face of the threat from nomadic civilization, the princes of the Han Empire united to defeat the enemy.
Only the West or central Asia, which has a large number of civilizations and complex relations, has enough population and depth to open up a new empire by taking advantage of the contradictions among civilizations.
Attila used the contradictions between European civilizations to intimidate and seduce a number of allies, which inspired Timur."The army of the golden tent Khanate appears!"
Cossack cavalry patrolling the Dun River found the vanguard of the golden tent Khanate.
A steady stream of Mongolian troops appeared, and the king of field operations defeated the Cossack cavalry. The swift cavalry troops emerged, with machetes, bows and arrows, spears, and horses neighing. The fast cavalry is equipped with the eastern armor, and is more prepared to say, the armor system influenced by the Han Empire.
The Cossack cavalry was afraid of the cavalry, which caused a lot of losses.
The appearance of the elite cavalry on the left bank of the Don River soon aroused the uneasiness of the Grand Duchy of Moscow.
Harald rose, and the vanguard army with 30000 heavy infantry as the main force joined together, with spears and axes standing in full swing. Harar looked at the coming Mongolian cavalry.
He was not afraid of the regiment of the Grand Duchy of Moscow. He even came to a stone's throw and stopped to confront the heavy infantry vanguard army of Harar.
From a distance, the Mongolian cavalry was black and covered with flags.
Harald squeezed out the dense phalanx of heavy infantry, came to the front of the line, staring at the speed platform opposite: "this is not the place for you to come, get out of here!"
He looked at the burly Viking hero not far away: "if the Grand Duchy of Moscow is subject, you can still maintain your existing power and status, even in our Golden Horde, you can have a higher position."
"Die!"
Harald stepped forward a few steps, and the cavalry around him shot a dozen arrows and thrust them into the ground in front of him.
"I didn't expect that the archery of these cavalry was quite accurate..."
Halal had wanted to go up and catch him alive, but the amazing riding and shooting ability of Mongolian cavalry changed his face. If you rush out, you may be shot by Mongolian cavalry.
"Waiting for the arrival of the main force of the Khan."
He was waiting for the arrival of commander Tiemuzhen's main force of the golden tent Khanate.
Two powerful armies, one cavalry and one infantry, confront each other on the misty left bank of the Don river. Behind them, each represents a strong civilization.
"Your Highness, the Mongolian cavalry has appeared, and the vanguard army of Harar has been confronted with speedup, and a great war may break out at any time."
Bartoli came back from the front and reported the situation to Ekaterina in the rear.
"Let Harald learn patience and wait for timuzhen to come."
Ekaterina is not afraid of Tiemuzhen. She has fought with Tiemuzhen many times, and Tiemuzhen is also an old opponent.
What she wants to defeat is not the fast vanguard, but the main force of Tiemuzhen.
More and more Mongolian cavalry appeared on the left bank of the Don river, which was full of narrow terrain.
The narrowness of the left bank of the Don river is beyond Tiemuzhen's imagination. Hundreds of thousands of cavalry are crowded on the left bank of the Don river, unable to look at each other head and tail.
"Is that what yekaterina meant? But she will be disappointed, because our cavalry, even in this terrain, will still defeat them
Tiemuzhen witnessed the 700000 troops of the golden tent Khanate crowding on the left bank of the Don river, unable to launch their formation.
The terrain on the left and right sides of yekaterina's army was bad, which was not suitable for cavalry to make detours. Therefore, the usual circuitous tactics could not be used in this battle.
"Shuchi, bierger (son of shuchi), you lead the infantry and cavalry to attack the left side. Muhuali and Buli, together with badur, command the infantry and cavalry and attack the right side. I, together with Timur, chilaowen, zhelmi and I, will come and push on! "
Tiemuzhen makes the deployment.
The battlefield on the left bank of the Don river is narrow, so Tiemuzhen can only choose three routes to fight and give full play to his military superiority.
The Mongolian cavalry attacking the left and right wings may face the dilemma of dismounting, but Tiemuzhen believes that he has many cavalry from his ministry.
Chu Tian's bonus can be applied to more than 100000 cavalry soldiers at most, while there are 500000 soldiers on the opposite side. If Chu Tian can't take care of it alone, he will break through all the way.
The system can add 25% to the cavalry, which can offset the exaggeration of the number of cavalry.
"Don't stand fast and say goodbye. You two join hands to use cannon fodder to consume the physical strength of the opposite side. Then we sent Timur and chilaowen to lead the army of cowardly Xue to cut through the enemy's array at one stroke!"
Tiemuzhen is determined to defeat the Grand Duchy of Moscow. There must be a fierce struggle between the two powerful civilizations in order to fight for the domination of Moscow.
"If we can't annihilate the vanguard army in front of us, I'd like to see you soon."
"Zhebei is willing to fight for the Khan!"
"Wu Liang, together with Taiwan, will go all the way!"
Su butai, Zhebei, and Wu Liang, the future famous general, are loyal to Tiemuzhen, and they are also the most powerful fighters under Tiemuzhen.Timur and chilaowen, two generals of the army, led the army.
After many wars, the army of the cowardly Xue had to recruit new recruits after each war. At present, some of them are not qualified, but they are still a formidable force of terror.
Even for the recruits of level 10, the basic panel of the nine level arms is still very terrible. Even if some lower level arms are full of level, plus the addition of many characteristics, they can not be compared with the Xixue army.
Timur and chilaowen heard that Tiemuzhen was going to fight the heavy infantry of the Grand Duchy of Moscow with the Xixue army. They knew that it was a bitter battle.
Narrow terrain, doomed to this is a meat war, to see who can not adhere to the end, who will collapse.
"Reward the whole army
Tiemuzhen ordered all the cavalry to eat and drink enough to prepare for the war!
Wu Liang Hetai, as the son of Su Bu Tai, inherited his father's military ability and was regarded as one of the representatives of Hufu's godless son.
He was observing the heavy infantry regiment of commander halal in the opposite direction. Maozi's folk customs were fierce, and heavy armed axe soldiers posed a great threat to Mongolian cavalry.
If on the grassland, Mongolian cavalry can play with heavy armed long handled axe soldiers, but yekaterina chose the terrain, so that the Mongolian cavalry had to face hard and shake this heavy infantry army.
Harar is also a strong general. The attack of Mongolian cavalry is doomed to fill the narrow battlefield with corpses.
"Serve in the army."
Quickly and mercilessly, he drove out the servants of the golden tent Khanate and pressed on the vanguard army of the Grand Duchy of Moscow.
This time, the Golden Horde could gather a million troops, more than half of which were servants and herdsmen, so it had such momentum.
In the eyes of speedup, the existence of servants in the army is to consume the enemy.
There were about 30000 cavalry servants serving as cannon fodder for the first attack on the Harald heavy infantry.
It seems that there are not many thirty thousand cavalry. In fact, if you put them in a narrow battlefield, you can see that there are a lot of horses and cavalry everywhere, bright sabers, sharp spears and arrow bags full of arrows.
All the cavalry and weapons are involved in this decisive battle to determine the ownership of Eastern Europe!
As the third echelon of halal's heavy infantry, Wuliang Hetai is equipped with armour and commands Mongolian cavalry.
The first echelon is the cannon fodder of the golden tent Khanate. The second echelon, the light cavalry of sudai and Zhebei, will come forward to harass them by riding and shooting. Finally, the Mongolian iron cavalry of Wuliang Hetai will attack.
In the rear of the vanguard cavalry who was commander in chief, Tiemuzhen personally led the main force of Mongolian cavalry. With the Xixue army of Timur and chilao Wen as the sharp knife, Tiemuzhen attacked yekaterina's formation directly after the vanguard cavalry made a breakthrough.
It's hard to imagine that a narrow field, with millions of troops assembled, uses brutal hand to hand tactics to decide which of the two powerful civilizations will win or lose.
On the left side of the Grand Duchy of Moscow is Dmitri of the Don river. His defense of liangzan city is captured by sudaotai. He is afraid of Mongolian cavalry.
He anxiously wiped the sweat from his forehead, and his sword hand was shaking.
After the legendary cavalry heroes such as temuzhen, sumutai, Timur and Muhuali joined, the strength of the golden tent Khanate directly doubled. Under normal circumstances, the Grand Duchy of Moscow could not fight against it.
He had some difficulty in understanding why the Lord Ekaterina decided to shake Tiemuzhen on the left bank of the Don river, unless she had confidence in herself.
Yekaterina has confidence in herself, and Tiemuzhen is no exception, so Tiemuzhen will decide to take the initiative to enter the decisive battle place under yekaterina's cloth.
"If we lose the Grand Duchy of Moscow, then the Duchy of Moscow may perish."
Dimitri of Don river, lack of confidence in himself.
On the opposite side of him, his opponents were the true rulers of the golden tent khanate, shuchi and bierge.
Shu Chi brought some of the elite of the Golden Horde the eldest son's army and the puppet timid Xue Army (the golden tent Khanate). The combat ability of these cavalry was also quite amazing.
Defending the right is Nevsky of the glacier, who in history defeated the Swedish expansion of the Northern Territory, and defeated the sword Knights of the Teutonic Knights in the battle of chude lake, avoiding the conquest of the Ross region by the Western Catholic countries. He is also a legendary hero of the Grand Duchy of Moscow.
He was faced with a large army with the main force of tanmachi in Muhuali. Relying on the terrain, he could try to resist it, but he was not so nervous.
On the battlefield, in addition to yekaterina's Czar's guard never engaged in the war with the golden tent khanate, there is also a troop of soldiers and horses carefully peeping at the battlefield in the jungle.
"We need to be patient."
Chu Tian led a main cavalry, ambushed in the jungle behind the left flank of the main force of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, waiting for the opportunity.
Yekaterina's main force continued to increase in depth to prevent it from being directly broken through by Tiemuzhen's cavalry. The vanguard army, the main force, the reserve team, and the ambush team led by Chu Tian himself, Tiemuzhen had to face a combat formation of coordinated operations.It is not the first time that the two men have joined forces to fight. They still have some confidence in each other's ability.
The iron hawk scout's Warhawk cannot be used.
Although the Warhawk can gain the advantage of vision, when the enemy sees the hawk, he will immediately realize that the cavalry of Chutian is nearby.
During the patient ambush, Xiao Chuo is massaging Chutian's shoulder. He is depressed. He is also a military and political all rounder. How can he be in the same position as a secretary?
The King City of the golden tent khanate, Sarai city and Badu personally commanded 300000 cavalry and herdsmen to stay in the Royal City, and the whole city was under martial law, and the patrols around the city were strengthened.
No matter Tiemuzhen, shubutai, shuchi and Badu, they all know that a 50000 strong cavalry tried to bypass the main force of the 700000 army of the golden tent Khanate and attack the rear city of Sarai.
Therefore, Badu, as if in the face of a major enemy, played up the spirit of twelve points and planned to meet Chu Tian, a strong enemy.
"If you lose in the wild, you should go back to the city of Sarai, and stay in the city until Khan and his father captured Moscow city."
Badu is determined to die.
Although according to intelligence inference, Chutian only brought 50000 cavalry to attack Sarai city. Although the normal cavalry's attribute would be reduced when attacking the city, although the number of Badu's cavalry was six times that of Chutian, Badu was still ready to die.
When people are in the city, people die and the city dies. Badu has a sense of solemn and stirring.
In the face of a strong enemy, die generously.
The 50000 cavalry who attacked the city of Sarai were Cossack cavalry led by the Cossack leader yermark and others. They were familiar with the terrain along the Don and Volga rivers, so they marched rapidly and often bypassed the main army of the golden tent Khanate.
After hmelinitsky was defeated by sudai, he lost only 3000 people, mostly because he was familiar with the roads in the Don River Basin. After all, many Don Cossacks made a living by plundering caravans, so it was impossible for them not to be familiar with the local terrain.
In order to make the Cossack cavalry look more like Han cavalry, Chu Tian also sent the Iron Eagle scouting team and the Iron Eagle scouting Warhawk to this Cossack cavalry.
The warhawks of Iron Eagle scouting cavalry soared in the air, which made the golden tent Khanate believe that the 50000 cavalry who attacked the salai city of the golden tent Khanate was the 50000 Han Army cavalry led by Chu Tian himself.
"Fifty thousand of us received orders to attack the city of Sarai. Is it that the Duke and the king of Xia intend to send us to death? It's said that a million horsemen have been assembled. If there were two or three hundred thousand cavalry in Sarai, we would have been killed. "
A Cossack leader hesitated after entering the Volga basin from the Don River Basin.
They were temporarily assigned by Ekaterina to Chutian, who ordered them to attack the city of Sarai. This order, in the eyes of Cossack leaders, is like an Arabian Night.
Chu Tian seems to think too highly of their Cossack cavalry.
Cossack cavalry is indeed relatively excellent light cavalry, but it does not mean that they can win more with less. There are still many heavy cavalry in the golden tent Khanate.
"But I'm afraid of delaying."
The Cossack leader, yermark, was not afraid.
Chu Tian was more accurate in judging people. He knew that yermark, a legendary hero who had the courage to conquer Siberia with hundreds of Cossack cavalry, was a cruel character. Even if he was carrying out dangerous tasks, he would successfully complete the task for the sake of gold, silver and status.
Although some Cossack leaders expressed concern, yermark still dominated the Cossack cavalry and continued to approach the city of Sarai according to Chu Tian's request.
Under the city of St. Petersburg, Gustav, the great master of the north, successfully besieged the city and joined with the Viking fighter Olaf. No one dared to block Gustav's army.
Gustav came to the city of St. Petersburg, but his face was not very good-looking, because the fortifications of St. Petersburg were stronger than he thought.
Different from Xiacheng, St. Petersburg is located in the hinterland and is absolutely safe. However, St. Petersburg is located in the north of the Grand Duchy of Moscow. As a bridgehead against the northern European civilization, yekaterina built a lot of fortifications.
Gustav was not willing to spend too much of his troops in the battle, but in the present situation, he could not but attack.
