I’m The King Chapter 573: : take over

The Liaohe River is like an invisible boundary. The East Conquering Army is in the west, and the Donghu people are in the east. It is far from the time to seize the territory. As far as Yu Zhengdong's army is concerned, the strength is not enough, and the west bank is big enough. As far as Donghu is concerned, he has no energy. If Thorpe does not completely complete the restructuring of Donghu, he will not raise his knife.

As a staunch supporter of Thorpe, tens of thousands of cavalry from the Wusu tribe are now basically concentrated around Helin as Thorpe's strong backing. What Thorpe returned to the Wusu tribe was nearly 10,000 prisoners of war from the Yan army and the right to be the first to go to the Hetao Plain to farm and open up wasteland.

The tribal elite cavalry will now be used as the sharp blade in Thorpe's hands, so the troops who go to the Hetao Plain can only be left behind. Tens of thousands of captives are divided into several tribes, and each group of captives has five hundred to eight Hundreds of cavalry guards.

Usumit is not worried that the Yan army will rebel. These Yan army prisoners are quite special. Due to the agreement between the Yan State and Donghu, these people will be repatriated within five years at the latest, and they will not really become the Donghu clan. The slaves who have hope will not despair. These people are naturally very law-abiding. The prisoners of war are still managed according to the original establishment of the Yan army. It's just tied to Helin.

The Donghu people who manage them only need to do one thing, don't push these Yan army captives into a hurry, let them live for the Donghu people to complete the work of reclamation and wasteland in the Hetao Plain, and there should be no trouble.

So although these people are prisoners of war and their daily work is not easy, but because they can eat their stomachs and see hope, they have been very peaceful so far. Thanks to their efforts, the Usu tribe is now It already has tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, and the first ones have been opened up and the seeds have been sown. This fall, the first crop will be harvested.

Seeing the green crops, Usumit saw the hope of Donghu's future.

The sentry of the Zhengdong Army has been found on the east bank, and they have advanced to the control area of ​​the Wusu tribe. A few days ago, the two sides even clashed, killing five, but escaping one. This information was sent to Usumit as early as the first time.

Is the Eastern Conqueror Army intending to cross the river and advance? But this problem troubled Usumit. Ordinarily, compared with the current strength of the East Army on the West Bank, they should not have this ability. However, it was discovered that the place where the Eastern Zheng Army sent out was Tengger, which was the first place to be developed by the Wusu tribe, but it was also the farthest direction.

There are also different opinions within the tribe. Thorpe's great cause of integrating the various tribes of the Donghu has reached the most critical moment. There is no room for mistakes. It is really impossible to mobilize extra troops to go to Tengger. Everyone's opinion is that the most likely thing for these Eastern Zhengdong sentry cavalry is to spy on intelligence. As for the use of force, the Zhengdong Army should not have the courage. It is very simple to say, even if they win. I can't eat it, Tengger is more than two hundred miles away from Liaohe, but it is closer to them.

Usumit hesitated for a few days, and finally made a decision. Instead of mobilizing his own troops, he would dispatch two hundred cavalry from each of the other tribes who were closer to Tengger to go to Tengger. Here, so come. Tengger's army will exceed a thousand cavalry, even if the opponent wants to make some moves, they don't have the strength.

Usumit thought very carefully, but he thought for too long, waiting for him to make a decision and send out the order. Those garrisons began to gather their manpower and set off to Tengger, going back and forth, and half a month had passed. And Usumit also misunderstood Xu Yuan's motive for conquering the Eastern Army. Xu Yuan had no intention of occupying Tengger at all. Just as Usumit thought, if it was taken, he would not be able to swallow it.

Xu Yuan wanted those thousands of prisoners of war.

These people were originally good soldiers. After being snatched back by him, even if they could not become qualified soldiers, they would still be very good as farmers to take over the land of the Eastern Army.

While Usumit was still hesitating, more than a thousand cavalry led by Xu Yuan had already approached Tengger infinitely.

As for Allen, the leader of the 500 cavalry of the East Huwusu tribe stationed in Tengger, he has smelled uneasiness in the air these days. , he immediately reported to the tribe, but he never received a reply. In the past few days, after the sentry cavalry went out to patrol but did not return, his nerves were infinitely tense.

The fact that the sentry cavalry did not return could only mean one thing, they had already been wiped out by the enemy when they encountered the enemy.

But whether it is the opponent's deliberate revenge or the enemy's large-scale attack, Aaron is not sure, but as a veteran on the battlefield, he is still ready for everything. Instead of sending out sentry cavalry, he led hundreds of cavalrymen under his command to meet them forward, leaving only a few guards in the entire camp.

He is not worried that these Yan troops will rebel, but he is a little worried. If the opponent really attacks and the battle breaks out here, will these Yan troops be agitated? The Zhengdong Army is also a Yan army. Instead of taking this risk, it is better to go forward on your own initiative.

In the cavalry battle, Allen never thought that he would lose. Even if the opponent has more people than him, there is nothing to be afraid of. No matter how slow the tribe is now, it should make a decision. No matter what, some reinforcements will gather here.

It cannot but be said that Allen's decision was not wrong, the only thing is that he miscalculated the comparison between the fighting strength of Donghu and Zhengdong Army. , It also gave Donghu people great self-confidence, and they believed that Donghu cavalry was invincible in the world.

But too much self-confidence can lead to arrogance. After the war ended, the upper echelon intentionally covered up the fact that Tieling and Hu Kele's three tribes were defeated by the Eastern Army. Of course, they didn't want to cover up because of this. The joy of victory.

When Xu Yuan was surprised to learn that his target had taken the initiative to lead an army to meet him, he was half astonished and half happy, just like someone delivered a pillow in time when he was asleep, it was too considerate up.

A series of battle orders were immediately issued, and the thousand cavalry who followed Xu Yuan across the river split into two groups, left and right, and surrounded the team in front.

As for the combat effectiveness of his troops, Xu Yuan is as confident as Allen. More than 80% of the thousand cavalry under his command are Hun cavalry. , and now their equipment far exceeds that of the Eastern Hu cavalry, and their number is twice that of the opponent. If such a battle cannot be won, then Xu Yuan can really find a rope to hang himself.

Gongsun Yi is also very anxious. As a former general of the Gongsun tribe, his position in the Eastern Conquest Army is no longer comparable to that of the former patriarch of the Gongsun tribe, Gongsun Aman. Under his command, he has not been reused, but it seems that Zhengdong Army has raised him up, unlike him, who has real power in his hands, and Xu Yuan also said that when the First Army is fully organized, it will be played. Please Governor Gao Yuan agrees to set up an independent cavalry regiment in the First Army, and the choice of regiment leader will be between him and Luo Lei.

The independent cavalry regiment is directly under the control of the military department, so it is naturally not in the sequence of the two divisions. In terms of rank, although it is the commander of the regiment, its status is not inferior to that of the commander of the first division. Ability, even stronger than a teacher. As for the size of a regiment, Xu Yuan also told him that there would be at least 3,000 cavalrymen. Thinking about how pleasant it would be if he could command 3,000 cavalrymen. But there are only four or five hundred cavalry.

His heart was burning hot right now. He joined the Zhengdong Army earlier and adapted to the Zhengdong Army's system earlier. Compared with Luo Lei, he naturally has the upper hand, but Gongsun Yi also knows his own disadvantages. Guys from the Bouyei tribe are indeed stronger than themselves.

However, to lead an army in battle requires more brains and connections. Gongsun Yi feels that he is much better than Luo Lei. What he has to do now is to show Xu Yuan that he is superior to the other party.

When the three-headed snake flag unique to the East Huwusu tribe appeared in front of them ~IndoMTL.com~ Gongsun Yi immediately became excited.

The cavalry of the First Army of the Eastern Expedition Army saw the Wusu tribe, and Aaron from the Wusu tribe naturally also noticed the opponent. At first, he was taken aback. He didn't expect to encounter so many enemies. Even though he was a little shocked, he had no intention of retreating at all, especially after seeing that the opponent was divided into two groups, one from the left and one from the right. Knowing that cavalry combat, the best way is to concentrate all the forces to carry out group strikes. Now the opponent is divided into two groups, each with the same strength as yourself, which gives yourself a chance to defeat each one. Cavalry combat, no matter what It is as slow as infantry combat, that is, a few breaths, and you can charge back and forth several times. With the ability of your own subordinates, it is enough to break up the opponent's formation, turn around, and then deal with the enemy on the other side. After the opponents separated, there was enough distance between the two sides to complete the blow by themselves.

Allen only took a few glances, and then decided to attack the troops of the Eastern Expedition Army who were slightly ahead.

When Gongsun Yi saw that his opponent chose him, he was even more excited. He yelled loudly and issued orders. One by one, the Zhengdong cavalry began to rectify their formation, but it was not a conical formation for charging, but a half-moon formation.

Seeing the opponent's formation, Allen couldn't help being ecstatic after being astonished. With such a formation, a single charge by himself is enough to pierce through the opponent's formation.
