Many beacon towers were set up in the frontier fortress of Dawan state and the western regions. Each beacon tower was guarded by several to dozens of Han troops. Once an enemy rode into the garrison, the beacon fire was lit immediately to remind the rear cities.
"Dadu HuGu doesn't know where he went. He hasn't seen him for a long time."
"We soldiers like us still want to see dadushu?"
"That may not be true. I have seen daduhu with my own eyes when I fought with the Mongols before."
"For a long time, the Mongols have not been at war with the governor of the western regions. Dawan has not been conquered for at least five years. "
More than a dozen Han troops stationed at one of the beacon towers have been relaxed.
After conquering Dawan for several years, the governor of the western regions regarded Dawan as its own territory.
Suddenly, the cowhide wine bag in the hands of the Han Army scouts standing on the second level wooden arrow tower falls off, and the wine falls on the ground.
Han military scouts glared with disbelief: "enemy riding!"
"Quick, light the beacon fire!"
The rest of the chatting Han soldiers immediately picked up their weapons, Han veterans lit the smoke of beacon!
At the end of the horizon, a thin black line appears.
The Khitan general yeludashima led a group of Turkic cavalry to invade Dawan, attempting to break through Dawan's national defense line and re conquer the capital of western regions!
This is the second time that wokuotai and yeludashi tried to conquer the western regions!
Last time, the combination of wokuotai and yeludashi, together with Tiemuzhen, attacked the western regions and was repulsed by the expeditionary forces of the princes of the Han Empire.
This time, wokuotai, which had accumulated enough population and troops, sent Yelu Dashi to launch a provocation against the western region's capital.
"After the capture of Dawan, the population of Dawan was all slaves of ours."
Yeludashi pulled out his saber and drowned the beacon tower with 50000 Turk cavalry. The Han soldiers stationed at the beacon tower fled after lighting the smoke.
"Lord Wu, look, there is wolf smoke in the southwest!"
"Light the beacon fire, send cavalry and inform Lord Huo Qubing!"
The Han Army stationed in Fengsui nearby immediately ignited the smoke, and the scouts and cavalry flew to each camp!
For a time, the war broke out in Dawan kingdom!
"General, there are a lot of cavalry in the southwest!"
"Follow me to meet the enemy!"
In addition to the 30000 troops and horses stationed in various parts of the frontier fortress, Huo Qubing also had 50000 cavalry in his hands. He learned that Yelu Dashi led the Turkic cavalry into Dawan, which was under the control of the capital of the western regions, and immediately confronted him.
"Turkic cavalry will attack. All cities will be closed and will not be allowed to leave the city."
Ban Chao, who presided over the internal affairs of Dawan state, was dripping with sweat.
He had already smelled the breath of wokuotai's invasion of the western regions. As a famous general with both literature and martial arts, he had a keen sense of smell. The most worrying thing is still happening.
Wokuotai and yeludashi accumulated strength, and chose the time when the Chu and Tian forces comprehensively attacked Shu to send troops. At this time, Huoan, the most powerful protector of the western regions, was not even in the western regions.
"The time for Yelu Dashi to choose is absolutely impossible. If it is not handled properly, Dawan state will be lost. With the troops of wokuotai and Yelu Dashi now, it will be more difficult to cross the green ridge again in the future Even if we can't keep Dawan, we should delay as long as possible Come on, gather the 70000 troops of Guishan city. Please come and help me
Ban Chao thought it necessary to send troops in person.
Maocai, the king of Dawan, who was supported by huo'an, and a group of nobles of Dawan were panicked. Guishan city had been sealed off by the Han Army, and no one was allowed to enter or leave. The war was imminent.
Rumors spread all over Guishan city. It is said that the second Great Khan of the Mongol Empire sent a million troops to attack Dawan.
Thinking of the terrible Mongolian cavalry, he had to ask banchao, who was preparing for the war, on behalf of the aristocrats of Dawan: "banchao, it's spread in the city that the Mongol Khan personally attacked Dawan, and there are one million cavalry. We have a population of less than 2 million in Dawan, and the number of young and strong people is not as large as that of wokuotai Moreover, Mongolian and Turkic generals, many of them may slaughter the city... "
"You don't have to panic, you don't have to panic. It's just a test of wokuotai. He occupied so much territory that the Dukes of India and the five nobles of kusana were not satisfied with wokuotai, and the main force of wokuotai did not dare to leave the Indian peninsula easily. "
Ban Chao's understanding of the situation is astonishing. When rumors spread among yeludashi, the aristocrats of Dawan state put pressure on the king's Mau Tsai to demand the withdrawal of troops from Dawan state to ensure the security of Dawan state, ban Chao judged that this was not the main force of wokuotai.
Ban Chao went on to say, "you are the king who supports the upper position of Dadu protector. If the Han army withdraws from Dawan, those impetuous nobles may kill you and flatter the Turks. At that time, the Turks will establish a new king."
It's raining like rain.
Ban Chao is right. Without Huoan's support, he would not be able to ascend the throne of Dawan. His power comes from the Han Army stationed in Guishan city.
As soon as ban Chao left, most of the nobles in Dawan would set up a new king."Don't worry. If yeludashi wants to win the kingdom of Dawan, he has to pass my test. As a general guarding the border, we must do our best. "
His own soldiers put on iron armor for ban Chao, and ban Chao sent troops in person to support Huo Qubing.
Huo Qubing had only one man, and the Turkic cavalry who attacked Dawan might not be just yeludashi.
Although yeludashi was a Khitan, there were only a few Khitan cavalry. The only large Khitan tribe was arranged by Chutian to breed war horses for the Empire in the desert steppe.
The cavalry of yeludashi was a Turkic cavalry of Central Asia who joined him.
A secondary town was broken down by the cavalry of yeludashi, and the Turkic cavalry plundered the town wantonly.
Yeludashi had no intention of stopping him.
In Lord, in addition to the ability to quickly restore morale, Raiders can also restore morale.
The negative effect of looting by longitudinal soldiers is that the public security and public sentiment of a city will decline, and various buildings will be damaged, and even the level will be reduced. For example, a blacksmith's shop of level 5 may be reduced to a level 4 blacksmith's shop.
Generally speaking, if you want to take a place as your own, the generals who lead the troops will not easily indulge in the plunder of the army. Otherwise, a prosperous city may turn into ruins.
Ordering the slaughter of a city can even destroy a city completely.
However, now yeludashi is fighting in the sphere of influence of the western region's capital, so he will not show mercy.
Yelv Dashi watched the whole secondary town fall into a sea of fire, indifferent.
Those who want to achieve great things will pay some price and can bear it.
A Turkish military general led his troops to plunder.
Yelv Dashi said to the Turkic general, "Jie Li, you lead the cavalry and keep on guard around."
"Take orders."
The Turkic army will take away thousands of elite Turkic cavalry. This group of Turkish cavalry is not satisfied. They have not looted enough property.
Yeludashi was extremely cautious.
The governor of the western regions has 400000 troops and horses. The quality of the generals is not low. Huo Qubing and ban Chao are both enemies in Dawan state.
Yelv Dashi thinks he is not as good as Huo Qubing, but he adopts the strategy of dividing troops.
Dawan state, a small city with a population of tens of thousands, was attacked by another Turkic cavalry!
Shihbi Khan, the Turkic civilization, led the Turkic cavalry into the city.
The fire reflected in the eyes of Shibi Khan, there was no pity. This was the war in the cold weapon age, and there was no order.
In addition to yeludashi and Shibi Khan, Khan Badu of Jinzhang and his younger brother bierge led a cavalry composed of Mongolian cavalry and Indian sadiri warriors to attack Guishan city of Dawan state.
The grassland Empire suddenly attacked Dawan, and Wusun, Cheshi and Qiuci in the western regions were all shocked.
In Wusun Kingdom, the king of Wusun who followed Huoan in the war was a little old and his temples were gray.
"If there is an accident in Dadu's territory, how can we stand by and watch. All the people of Wusun, follow me to Dawan
King Wusun was also a vassal of huo'an and a fanatical supporter of huo'an. At one command, one hundred thousand horsemen of Wusun were sent to Dawan.
"The Wusun people are also involved in the war!"
The Dawan people in Guishan city are even more alarmed when they find that the cavalry of Wusun state appears in the city. This war may reduce the population of Dawan state by half.
