Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 579: Go to Yanqi

"A team of cavalry broke through and looked east!"

The commander Wan, who failed to intercept Gan Yanshou's cavalry, came to report to Wo Kuotai.

"How many people left?"

"More than a hundred people."

"There are only a hundred people, if they leave, let them leave. The cavalry of the Great Khan in Yanqi may kill them."

Wo Kuotai didn't care much about Gan Yanshou's cavalry squad.

Yelu Dashi moved his neck and looked at the war eagle in the air: "The reinforcements of the Han Empire will come soon. It is said that the Great Khan was repelled by the Han army when he attacked the country of Cheshi."

Wo Kuotai was really horrified to learn that Temujin was defeated, but that was all: "Even if they could repel the Great Khan, they would not be able to destroy the Great Khan's Coy Xue army. There is already a team of cavalry in Mobei to teleport. To the Tianshan Mountains, and then to Yanqi Kingdom, it is enough to make up for the loss of the Great Khan."

In order to appease Yelu Dashi and keep him loyal, Okuotai knew that his subordinates could not think that Temujin was not an opponent of the Han Empire's expeditionary force.

From the current point of view, Temujin suffered some losses when facing the Han Empire's expeditionary army, but it was not enough to wipe out the entire army.

The Han Empire's expeditionary force wanted to completely wipe out Temujin's main force, but it also had to pay a very heavy price, not an ordinary price.

"Also, that guy from Chagatai should be here too."

Wo Kuotai looked west.

To the west, the khans of the Chagatai Khanate, the second son of Temujin, Chagatai, led the army of the Chagatai Khanate, and the captive army of Seljuk and Khwarizmo's servants, on an expedition to Luntai.

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

"Wo Kuotai is really unlucky. In order to help me, his khanate was destroyed by the Protector of the Western Regions. This time, I will help him once, and the kindness can be regarded as two cleanups."

Chagatai drove Seljuk, Khwarizmo and other Central Asian servants, hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep forward.

These 70,000-80,000 Central Asian servants were the cavalry captured by the Chagatai Khanate after the defeat of the Seljuk Empire and the Khwariza Kingdom in the Battle of the Ili River Valley.

In addition to the 70,000-80,000 Central Asian servant army, Chagatai brought a 100,000 Chagatai Khanate army, which was assembled in the Western Regions of Qiuci by order of Temujin.

Chagatai's army spreads all over the mountains and plains, and everywhere you look, there are cattle, sheep and war horses.

All the cavalry in the Western Regions, with Luntai City as the center, quickly gathered, involving several Han Empire princes and several Mongolian Khans.

Luntai City became the center of the storm.

Huo An killed the Mongolian army that attacked Luntai City, but the bombardment of Luntai by Xiangyang Artillery never ended, but continued to bombard the city. The fireball exploded and the fire spread in Luntai City. fire.

"After this war, even if our Protectorate of the Western Regions still exists, it will take two or three years to regain our strength, and our march into Central Asia will eventually be delayed."

Huo An stood at the sword and confronted Okuotai and Yelu Dashi under the city.

They all have the determination to dominate Central Asia.

However, their battles instead allowed the Chagatai Khanate to take advantage.

The yellow sand filled the air, and the huge iron-clad war elephant took heavy steps, leaving huge footprints on the Gobi.

A group of Han army cavalry marched in the yellow sand, and the gravel flew, hitting the iron pieces of the armor, and the battle flag was damaged.

The Xuanjia Army had to take off their battle armor, carry the battle armor on pack horses, and temporarily put on the armor when fighting.

The same is true for Le Yi's Yanjia, all of whom go into battle lightly.

The eagles of the Iron Eagle Scouts soar through the air, and once the enemy's cavalry is spotted, all legions will prepare for battle.

Military advisor Sun Bin was talking to the locals, as if trying to figure out the change in wind direction.

The time is right and the time is very important.

…

"Hasn't the teleportation formation in Luntai City of the Han Empire been activated yet?"

In the Grand Duchy of Moscow, Ekaterina was concerned about the opening of the teleportation formation in Luntai City after discovering the change in the Golden Horde.

As one of the two world trade nodes in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Luntai City, the Protectorate of the Western Regions, opened a teleportation array with St. Petersburg, but at this time the teleportation array had not recovered, indicating that Luntai City was still besieged by Mongolian cavalry.

If the teleportation array of Luntai fails, it will be difficult for Ekaterina to travel to the Han Empire. The cities between the Grand Duchy of Moscow and the Han Empire have been blocked by the Golden Horde and the Mongolian Empire.

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

"According to the news from the Han Empire players, the Han Empire organized an expedition force of at least 400,000 people to enter the Western Regions to support Luntai City. If the Han army can lift the siege of Luntai City, then St. Petersburg and Luntai City will be separated. The teleportation array between the two will be reopened."

"When the teleportation formation in Luntai City opens, let me know immediately."

"Yes."

Ekaterina is a little uneasy.

The Golden Horde plundered gold and silver near the Volga River Valley, and then narrowed its sphere of influence, choosing to avoid her front, which confused Ekaterina.

…

In the middle army of the Han army, the war eagle sent by Hua Mulan to investigate Luntai came back and brought back Huo An's note.

Huo Qing couldn't wait to lean over, wanting to know the safety of his brother.

"As expected, Huo An was besieged in Luntai City, and there were at least more than 100,000 enemy soldiers surrounding Luntai City."

Chu Tian took off the note, and Huo An only used a short sentence to describe the situation of Luntai, the government office of the Protectorate of the Western Regions.

"There are more than 100,000 opponents, 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 through, then Wo Kuotai can't stop him..."

Huo Qing could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when he learned that his brother Huo An was all right, and at the same time wondered about Huo An's choice.

"Only he has the prestige to defend Luntai. If he chooses to leave Luntai, people's hearts and morale in Luntai decline. Even if he leaves a general to defend the city, it will be of no avail. Luntai must not lose, otherwise, all the Western Regions will be lost. The Protectorate was destroyed, leaving only Cheshiguo... We can't keep garrisoning troops in Cheshiguo, and the crisis in the Western Regions Protectorate will ultimately be resolved by the Western Regions Protectorate."

Chutian knew that Huo An was in charge of Luntai himself, mainly to appease people's hearts.

"Oh."

Huo Qing was still a little worried.

"It seems that Huo An also sent a cavalry to join us. Perhaps the general of that cavalry will tell us more about Luntai City and your brother."

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

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

"What's the matter with the strategist?"

Chu Tian rarely sees Sun Bin feeling uneasy because of the situation.

Sun Bin said: "This place is windy and sandy, so you need to be careful that Temujin and Subutai are taking advantage of the flying sand and moving rocks, attacking back and forth."

Chu Tian knew that Sun Bin had a certain ability to predict danger, and his worries were not unreasonable.

In the battle of Cheshiguo, Temujin used the strong wind to launch an attack. Once the sand and rocks were thrown away, the Han army in the downwind direction would be very passive.

Sun Bin noticed this.

"Inform the front and rear soldiers to be careful of sandstorms and protect water sources and arrows."

When Chu Tian and others marched, they kept their water bladders full of water.

If there is no food, you can kill camels and war horses to feed your hunger. If there is no water, then the expeditionary force cannot move, and without arrows, it cannot fight back against the Mongolian cavalry who are good at riding and shooting.

The two war eagles flew towards Huo Qubing's front army and Lao Qin's rear army respectively, reminding them to pay attention to the sandstorm.

Sun Bin pays attention to the change of the flag in the army: "Not good, the weather changes."

"Could it be, it's going to be windy again..."

Chu Tian's heart sank.

The expedition to Luntai is definitely not that easy. If you are not careful, 400,000 Han troops and millions of cattle and sheep will all be buried in the Gobi and desert.

"I will lead my troops to the former army for support!"

Mu Ke held a fire and hated the Mongolian Empire besieging Huo An, so she urged the Nanzhong Army to go to support the former army.

The Nanzhong Corps supported the former army, but Chu Tian did not say anything. He was also worried that the former army would be attacked by Temujin.

Temujin was defeated in Cheshiguo, and it is estimated that he also had a burst of anger in his chest, and wanted to severely damage the Han army.

Qin Liangyu and the white pole soldiers, Wu Tugu and the rattan armor soldiers, under the leadership of Mu Ke, speed up their march and catch up with the Huo Qubing army as soon as possible.

When the former army, Huo Qubing, Wang Xuance, Li Siye and others received Chutian's reminder, the sand and dust had already begun to fill the sky, and only the camels who accompanied the army took it calmly.

Huo Qubing, Li Siye, Wang Xuance and others were already familiar with the Gobi and deserts of the Western Regions. Although they felt it was difficult, they still marched to Luntai according to the established route.

"General, please be the vanguard!"

Huo Qubing's lieutenant Zhao Ponu volunteered to serve as the vanguard, to test the possible enemy cavalry ahead for the army.

Wang Xuance frowned: "There is a strong wind at this time, so we should stop the march. After the wind and sand have passed, we will march to Yanqi and Luntai again, so as to avoid Temujin's surprise attack."

Li Siye was also a little impatient: "Luntai is besieged by the Mongolian army, and there is always a danger of falling. If we are indecisive, Luntai will inevitably fall. It is better to take advantage of the wind and sand, rush for thousands of miles, capture the country of Yanqi, and defeat Temujin in one fell swoop. , in order to avenge his attack on the Protectorate of the Western Regions!"

"Tiemuzhen is good at cavalry, and he must be prepared to attack hundreds of miles away. I am afraid that sheep will be caught in the tiger's mouth. Please think twice about it, General."

Wang Xuance thought Li Siye's proposal was too risky.

In front of cavalry generals who are good at rushing for hundreds of miles, it is extremely dangerous to implement the tactics of rushing hundreds of miles.

As the leader of this army, Huo Qubing will finally make a decision on the proposals of these people.

Huo Qubing has always adopted the tactics of roundabout raids, but after a long-term battle with Subutai, Huo Qubing found that the Mongolian cavalry were prepared for this tactic.

If only Huo Qubing and the others had a force of 40,000 soldiers, Huo Qubing would dare to gamble, but behind Huo Qubing, there are also Chutian's central army and Jijiu Lao Qin's rear army.

Once the front army fails to attack, it may lead to the collapse of the central army and the rear army.

"Since the general asked us to be careful, we will stop the march for the time being and wait for the sandstorm to pass~IndoMTL.com~The Chinese army will catch up."

Huo Qubing rarely chose a relatively conservative tactic.

Li Siye and Zhao Ponu were both people who dared to take the initiative to attack. At this time, they were dissatisfied with Wang Xuance's relatively conservative proposal.

"After the sandstorm passes, the Chinese army will catch up. We can report to the general and request to raid the country of Yanqi and open the passage to Luntai."

Wang Xuance saw everyone's disappointment, so he proposed to launch a surprise attack after the sandstorm.

In his bones, Wang Xuance was as crazy as Huo Qubing, Zhao Ponu, Li Siye and others. The first thing they considered was attacking, and then defending.

This time, for the safety of the 400,000 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.

As the wind blew the dunes, Temujin rode his horse and led his mighty cavalry over the dunes.

Temujin's face was not very good-looking, and he damaged one of the timid generals of the Xue army, Bo Erhu, for which Temujin went on a two-day hunger strike.

The Han army gathered forces in the Cheshi country and began to advance towards the Yanqi country. It was about to reach the Yanqi country. Temujin had to stop the Han Empire's expeditionary army from continuing to advance.

Temujin wanted to lead the expeditionary army of the Han Empire to the Western Regions and annihilate them.

However, even if the Han Empire's expeditionary force was led to the Western Regions, Temujin found it difficult to swallow this huge expeditionary force right under his nose.

"The Gobi and the desert will be their burial places. Subutai agreed with me to leave at least 100,000 Han troops here."

Temujin's whip pointed at the marching Huo Qubing Corps.
