Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 556: Battle of Ili Valley
Central Asia, the Ili River Valley, the battle of the three armies determines the hegemony of Central Asia.
The valley is hot, and the wind in the valley is unsettling. Sweat flows down the armor and falls to the ground.
Thousands of war horses neighed. Chagatai, the Great Khan of the Chagatai Khanate, led hundreds of Mongolian commanders and commanders, as well as a group of Central Asian servants, and the Sel who came to attack The Pillar Empire and the Khwarizmo Kingdom allied forces in a decisive battle.
The Seljuk Empire and the Khwarizmo Kingdom sent 400,000 troops, mostly cavalry.
Central Asia is rich in good horses, and the Dawan horse is from Central Asia, and even the famous horse Jueying belongs to the Dawan horse breed.
Sultan Tugril of the Seljuk Empire and Sultan Mahamo of Khwarizmo feared the Chagatai Khanate, believing that the Chagatai Khanate, like the Western Regions Protectorate of the Han Empire, would try to control it Central Asia, affecting their hegemony.
The Chagatai Khanate replaced the Protectorate of the Western Regions and became the No. 1 enemy of the Seljuk Empire and Khwarizm.
The hot sand and gravel are hot, even in the Ili River Valley, this month is just as hot, as if the air is distorted by the excessive temperature.
The Sultan of the Seljuk Empire, Tugril, wiped the sweat on his forehead with a silk handkerchief. This time he came from afar to destroy the Chagatai Khanate and relieve the Chagatai Khanate from the Seljuk Empire. the threat posed.
"I didn't expect that the Mongols would actually dare to come to fight. I really don't know whether to live or die. We have 400,000 cavalry on our side, and the other side only has 200,000. Defeat the Mongolian cavalry as soon as possible, seize their palace, and let my soldiers enjoy the cool air. "
Tugril braved the hot and scorching weather, and traveled thousands of miles to fight the Chagatai Khanate decisively. He just wanted to defeat the Mongols as soon as possible, wash the royal city of the Chagatai Khanate, and dominate Central Asia.
The army of the Seljuk Empire could not bear the weather and was eager to win.
In the Seljuk and Khwarizm army, there are even tens of thousands of camels, as well as special camel cavalry.
Different from the light cavalry in Central Asia, there are a lot of heavy cavalry in Seljuk and Khwarizmo, which are specially used to attack the enemy's army.
In order to defeat the Chagatai Khanate in the Seljuk and Khwarizmo, the two sultans brought as many as several hundred generals.
If the opposite is the main force of the Mongol Empire or the four major Khanates join forces, it may also make the Seljuk Empire and Khwarizm panic, but their opponent is only one of the Khanates, the Chagatai Khanate.
In the eyes of the two sultans, this battle was won by the combined forces of the Seljuk Empire and the Khwarizm Kingdom.
In the Chagatai Khanate, Temujin's second son Chagatai served as the head coach, and fought against the 400,000 Central Asian coalition forces with 200,000 troops.
A military general appointed by Temujin and Subutai to assist the Chagatai Khanate as deputy commander.
In addition, Ogotai, the great Khan of Ogotai Khanate, the third son of Temujin, secretly came to Chagatai Khanate to support Chagatai.
Obviously, even Temujin and Subutai thought that the Chagatai Khanate would suffer from one enemy and two, so they secretly united the forces of the two khanates and gave them to the Seljuk Empire and the Khwarizm Kingdom. Fatal blow.
"The Seljuks and Khwarizmites are brave and belligerent, and are powerful countries in the Western Regions. If we can force them to surrender, then all the Western Regions will be owned by us."
Chagatai's sharp eyes were like sharp blades, stabbing straight at the opposing Central Asian coalition forces.
The culture of Seljuk and Khwarizm was different from that of the Mongol Empire.
The Mongolian Empire was most influenced by primitive beliefs, followed by the Confucian culture brought by Yelu Chucai, the prime minister.
If you want Seljuk and Khwarizmo to surrender, you can only conquer them by force, powerful force!
Wokuotai looked at the Seljuk cavalry and Khwarizm cavalry on the opposite side, as if coveting their land and population: "Chagatai, it is better to divide the territory of the Seljuk Empire to me, Khwarizm. I will give you the territory of the model, in this way, it will not be in vain for me to secretly dispatch elite cavalry to assist you in defeating the enemy.”
Among the four major khanates, the Golden Horde has the eldest son army of the elite legion, and the Yili Khan has legendary heroes of the golden family such as Tuo Lei, Meng Ge, Kublai Khan, and Hulagu.
If Jaghatai can dominate Central Asia, then it has a strong army of servants.
However, Ogotai's khanate in the Western Regions was suppressed by the Protectorate of the Western Regions, making it difficult to grow.
This made Wo Kuotai, the third son of Temujin, very dissatisfied.
Not to mention, in the battle of the Ili River Valley, which decided the hegemony of Central Asia, Wokuotai was ordered by Temujin to come to support the second brother.
"Seljuk and Khwarizmo are both within my sphere of influence and cannot be ceded to you. When Seljuk and Khwarizmo surrender, I and Subutai will help you break through the Protectorate of the Western Regions. Western Regions All the land controlled by the Protectorate is yours, how about it?"
In order to let Ogotai fully assist him in defeating the Central Asian coalition, Chagatai promised to attack the Protectorate of the Western Regions.
Wokuotai also knew that his hand could not be stretched too long to compete with Chagatai for control of Seljuk and Khwarizimo.
At present, under Temujin's restraint, the four Khanates of the Mongol Empire have not dared to fight within themselves.
If Temujin is killed, it's hard to tell.
Temujin's four sons are all fighting over the division of territory.
Whoever is more powerful will have a greater right to speak, and may inherit the throne of the Great Khan of the Mongolian Empire. Some descendants of the golden family would rather be local emperors in Central Asia, West Asia, or Eastern Europe, or even give up returning to Mobei to compete for the position of the Great Khan of the Mongolian Empire, and instead establish a kingdom on their own.
"The Seljuk cavalry and the Khwarazm cavalry seem to be going on the offensive. Are you sure that this battle will be won? Don't when the main cavalry of our two khanates will all be killed in this battle, otherwise , what are we going to use to attack the Western Regions Protectorate? The Western Regions Protectorate can't be taken even without speed."
O Kuotai squinted his eyes, and the Central Asian cavalry on the opposite side was endless. Wo Kuotai did not dare to say that he would definitely win.
The Central Asian cavalry is being frequently mobilized. According to Ogotai's speculation, the Central Asian Allied Forces will launch an attack on the Chagatai-Ogotai Khanate Allied Forces within a quarter or two.
"Lead it to the valley."
Chagatai handed over command to the deputy commander.
Wokuotai changed his color slightly when he saw this general: "This person was a general recruited by the father Khan after the national war, and was the lord of the northern main city at that time."
"That's the person."
When the Mongolian generals were deploying their troops, the Central Asian coalition had already started to attack!
"Cut off the head of Chagatai and hang it at the gate of the city as an example!"
The Mahamat Sultan of Khwarizmo drew his golden sword and pointed it at the army of the Chagatai Khanate!
The Khwarizm cavalry galloped out and passed by Mahamo!
As a nomadic civilization that stands out, the Khwarizm cavalry is also good at horsemanship and archery!
"Destroy the Chagatai Khanate. Their population, gold and silver, cattle, sheep, and food are all your spoils!"
The Tugril Sultan of the Seljuk Empire drew his Turkic sword and ordered his generals to attack the Mongolian cavalry of the Chagatai Khanate!
The two armies of the Seljuk Empire and Khwarizimo moved in unison, and the horses rolled forward, raising sand and dust, and the Ili River Valley was shaken!
Ili River Valley could not deploy such a huge force, and the Mongolian cavalry with a small number would not fall behind, fighting with Seljuk cavalry and Khwarizm cavalry, and corpses were scattered everywhere...
"Break through this city to stay behind!"
In the west of the Junggar Basin, Huo An, the Protector of the Western Regions, personally led his subordinates Chen Tang, Gao Xianzhi and others to surprise the capital of the Okuotai Khanate!
As for the Subutai Corps in the north of the Junggar Basin, it was handed over to Huo Qubing, one of the twin walls of the Han Empire, Li Siye of the Tang Modao Corps, and Wang Xuance, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Western Regions, to block the Subutai Corps and drag it to the Tianshan Mountains. To the north and south of the Altai Mountains, do not give the Subutai Army a chance to support the Okuotai Khanate!
Huo An sent scouts who infiltrated the Mongol Empire and the two major Khanates to detect the secret of Ogotai to assist the Chagatai Khanate against the Central Asian coalition.
So Huo An thought that this was an opportunity to attack the capital of the Ogotai Khanate, and personally led the cavalry to attack the capital of the Ogotai Khanate and also Mili City!
Once the capital is broken, the Ogotai Khanate will disintegrate!
Under the fierce offensive of Chen Tang and Gao Xianzhi, a small town controlled by the Wokuotai Khanate was captured. Chen Tang personally went first, opened the city gate, and welcomed Huo An's army of the Protectorate of the Western Regions.
The army of the Protectorate of the Western Regions includes the Han army and the local soldiers and horses of the thirty-six countries. After years of management by Huo An, they can be regarded as strong and strong.
If it wasn't for the Fourth National War, then the one who would compete with the Seljuk Empire and Khwarizm for the hegemony of Central Asia would be Huo An.
As long as the Seljuk Empire and Khwarizimo are defeated, basically, Huo An's territory will be similar to the territory of Xiliao in history.
However, the existence of the Subutai Legion and the Okuotai Khanate forced Huo An to shrink the strength of the Protectorate of the Western Regions.
"The Okuotai Khanate dared to sabotage my strategy, and it must break through the city of Yemili and pass over the family and cattle and sheep of Okuotai."
Huo An holds a map of the Western Regions in his hand.
The area where the Okuotai Khanate descended was within the original sphere of influence of Huo An. Therefore, Huo An was very familiar with the terrain here.
"The entire army replenishes food and grass and restores physical strength!"
Huo An didn't waste a moment, and ordered the army of the Protectorate of the Western Regions to take a quick rest. Once his physical strength recovered, he would force another march until the troops approached the city of Mili!
In the Ili River Valley, the Seljuk Empire and Khwarizmo cavalry fought hard. A group of Central Asian cavalry, who were jealous, tried to break through the gap of the Mongolian army, and were unconsciously led into the depths of the river valley. The Mongolian cavalry and Khitan cavalry in ambush killed Out and attacked the Central Asian cavalry, causing the Central Asian cavalry to be completely defeated!
The cries of killing echoed in the river valley. The Ili River Valley shook. The Seljuks and Khwarizm people were still stubbornly resisting. Tens of thousands of Seljuk cavalry and Khwarizm cavalry died in battle, and blood stained the river valley.
"No retreat! Those who retreat, and their families, will all be executed!"
The Seljuk Sultan personally stepped forward to supervise the battle, but was unable to contain the rout of the army.
The allied forces of the Chagatai Khanate and the Okuotai Khanate counterattacked across the board. The Seljuk and Khwarizm cavalry were killed and injured countless times. The flag fell to the ground. >
The Central Asian Allied Forces suffered a crushing defeat. In the battle of the Ili River Valley, 150,000 cavalry were killed, and the remaining 200,000 troops were all defeated.
The Khitan generals who replaced Chagatai commanding the Chagatai Khanate-Ogotai Khanate coalition army brought Khwarizm Sultan to see Chagatai.
The sultan of Khwarizm was terrified when he saw the great figures of the two major khanates.
He traverses half of Central Asia, and has yet to encounter such a failure.
400,000 troops, 150,000 were killed in the Ili Valley!
Chagatai's leather military boots stepped on Mahamo's face, completely disregarding Mahamo as a human being: "Khwarizimo dares to take the initiative to provoke our Mongolian Empire, and your fate will be extremely miserable."
Khwarizmo Sultan Mahamo's face twisted: "Khwarizmo will not yield to you..."
"It's your choice ~IndoMTL.com~ and not the choice of the Khwarizm nobles, you can die."
Chagatai beheaded Mahamo with one sword and wiped the blood-stained saber: "Yelü Dashi, you lead the vanguard and go to conquer the Seljuks and the Khwarizm people..."
The Khitan generals go down.
At this time, a Mongolian general came to Okuotai and whispered in his ear.
Wo Kuotai's expression changed.
Chagatai saw his younger brother pale and asked, "What happened?"
"Huo An of the Protectorate of the Western Regions is attacking my khanate."
