Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 619: The fall of the Seljuk Empire
The king city of the Seljuk Empire, Okuotai, Mengge, and Yelu Dashi received the battle report of the Chagatai Khanate. Temujin and the Chagatai Khanate were defeated in the Ili River Valley with an absolute superior force. .
"That guy from King Wusun, he was obedient to us, and he did a lot in attacking Luntai City. Twenty or thirty thousand soldiers of Wusun State died, and many Han troops fell under his hands. He even With his original master Huo An as an enemy, I didn't expect..."
Okuotai now regrets that he did not immediately kill King Wusun, but instead used King Wusun's influence to recruit Wusun's servant army.
If in Luntai Kingdom, he and Yelu Dashi killed King Wusun, perhaps the combined forces of Temujin and Chagatai Khanate would not have been defeated by the expeditionary army of the Han Empire.
When the Han army crossed the Tianshan Mountains, it was impossible to reach hundreds of thousands of troops. Because of the mountain road, it was impossible to transport hundreds of thousands of troops' food and grass!
"I'm afraid it's hard to avenge this revenge..."
When Yelu Dashi learned that King Wusun betrayed him, he could only say that he was powerless.
King Wusun is now with Huo An and the princes of the Han Empire. It is easier said than done to kill King Wusun who betrayed him.
King Wusun's acting skills were so good that he deceived many people at the expense of Wusun's cavalry.
"Speed up the siege, the Great Khan is waiting for us to return!"
O Kuotai looked a little anxious.
The dense Xiangyang artillery and ballista poured stones and ballistas into the royal city of the Seljuk Empire!
A siege warrior will provide a bonus to the already destructive Xiangyang Cannon, causing the Seljuk Empire's royal city to crumble under the bombardment.
Inside the royal city, Arp Arslan, the hero of the Seljuk Empire royal family, led a team of Seljuk soldiers to defend the city. Facing the violent bombardment of the trebuchets, he fell into despair.
Boulders and fireballs fell, hundreds of defenders were killed by catapults and ballistas, cracks appeared in the city walls, and the morale of the defenders dropped significantly.
Arp's helmet was bleeding with blood, and his eyes were red. A boulder fell less than 20 meters away from him, killing a defender!
Trebuchet's damage is too high!
"They have siege masters!"
As a sharpshooter of the Seljuk Empire, Arp bent a bow and shot an arrow to kill a Khwarizm soldier who was attacking the city.
The king city of Khwarizimo was captured and was ruled by Wo Kuotai.
The wolf smoke filled the city, and the black smoke was mixed with the smell of medicinal herbs with a paralyzing effect, and the defenders were miserable.
As one of the top heroes of the Seljuk Empire, Arp is good at using bows and arrows. However, his archery alone cannot change the bad situation.
The Mongolian army under the city has top siege generals, top cavalry commanders, and a group of famous generals from the Ogotai Khanate and the Ili Khanate. With the Seljuk Empire alone, they may be able to deal with a Khanate. But they couldn't stop the two khanates from joining forces.
Not to mention, the Seljuk Empire lost two battles with the Chagatai Khanate, so it lost a lot of its main cavalry and generals.
"If this goes on, the king's city will be lost soon! Our city walls can't stop the continuous bombardment of large trebuchets!"
The governor of the Seljuk defending the city made an emergency to Arp, his face full of smoke blackened by wolf smoke.
"If you can't keep it, you have to keep it!"
Arp shot dozens of arrows in a row, killing dozens of Mongolian servant soldiers, his arms tingling.
Under the command of Arp, the morale of the defenders was slightly lifted. This future candidate for the second Seljuk Empire Sultan has good courage and dares to fight Ogotai, Mengge and others head-on and defend The city, don't let the last city of the Seljuk Empire with a teleportation formation fall into the hands of Wo Kuotai!
"The resistance of the Seljuks is very tenacious. It seems that in addition to the Tugril Sultan, the Seljuk Empire has other tenacious generals. If they can serve us, then our front will be sharper. , like an eagle on the grassland."
Meng Ge commanded the Persian servant army to attack the city, and thousands of people were killed under the city, but he was still unable to take this strong city.
The Seljuks saw their royal city as the last pillar and held on to it.
Even though the old sultan is old, there is still a young member of the royal family, a young marksman, who is leading the defenders to resist the offensive of the Mongolian army.
Wokuotai didn't care: "Another ten Xiangyang cannons will be bombarded day and night for three or five days, and the city will be destroyed. Cracks have appeared in the city wall."
Yelu Dashi is behind Okuotai.
Now both sides are buying time.
If Okuotai and Meng Ge quickly break through the most important city of the Seljuk Empire, they can take the servant army of the Seljuk Empire and go to the Ili River Valley to support Chagatai and Temujin.
Wokuotai and Meng Ge have the characteristics of monarchs. Although they are not as good as Temujin and Chutian, they can still control a group of servants and work for themselves.
The Mongol, Khwarizm, and Persian offensives were repelled by Arp, the hero of the Seljuk Empire.
The siege army retreated slightly, but the siege of the city has not been lifted. Instead, a large number of siege machines such as trebuchets and siege towers have been built to increase the number of siege machines that bombard the city.
The fireballs dragging black smoke fell from time to time, bombarded the city wall, and then burst. The fire spread rapidly on the city wall. The defenders were busy fighting the flames and helping the soldiers burned by the flames.
The siege equipment of the Mongolian army bombarded the city day and night. Almost all the buildings outside the city were demolished by the Mongolian army, and then the stones and wood were made into stones or combustion-supporting materials, and were thrown into the city by trebuchets. Destroy the walls and all the fortifications.
Beneath a 12-meter-high Xiangyang Cannon, a Han Chinese general held his chest and looked at the city of the Seljuk Empire with thick smoke. The flames reflected fire in his eyes.
According to his experience, the city will soon become untenable.
Unless the city has a long-range firearms, it is possible to crack the Xiangyang Cannon. However, no civilization has obtained the blueprint for the manufacture of the bronze cannon.
A Mongolian cavalry came over and said, "General Ogotai Khan called you over to discuss the capture of the city within three days."
The Han generals turned and left.
On the city wall, a fireball exploded beside Arp, and the rubble splashed. Fortunately, Arp's guards blocked the rubble with shields.
The rubble smashed on the shield and made a sound, allowing Arp to avoid the splash damage caused by the trebuchet.
Arp looked at the trebuchet standing outside the city wall and shook his head. Faced with such a siege machine, the city wall would collapse sooner or later.
"General, His Majesty the Sultan, I invite you and the generals to enter the palace."
Arp left the governor who was guarding the city, and then went to the palace with a group of generals of the Seljuk Empire.
The Seljuk Sultan suddenly summoned them. There must be something important, and this matter may even be related to the defense of the city.
The Sultan Tugril of the Seljuk Empire was lying in bed and summoned Arp of the Seljuk Empire and dozens of generals.
These generals range from diamond rank to imperial rank.
In addition to the similar technology and the need for blueprints, each civilization area is in a different era.
The Seljuk Empire, at the end of the reign of the first Sultan Tugril.
All generals looked at the ruler of the empire, the conqueror who was defeated by the Chagatai Khanate in his old age.
If it hadn't been for opponents like Yelu Dashi and Timur, or the sultan might not have been so passive when he was young.
The gray-bearded sultan said: "Arp, come forward."
Arp stepped forward: "Your Majesty, is there a way to defeat the enemy?"
The Sultan Tugril grabbed Arp's hand and announced to all the generals of the Seljuk Empire: "Bless Sultan Arp Arslan, the model commander of the armies, shine on his banner and help him to arrive. Success... so that his rise will be triumphant and bright."
All the generals of the Seljuk Empire who heard the old Sultan's order were stunned for a moment, and then they all knelt down.
The old sultan was about to abdicate when the city was breached!
Tugliel continued: "Alp Arslan, commander of all armies, seek light in the darkness, and leave this city that is about to become a sea of fire."
Arp did not expect that the Sultan of Tugrile would directly give up the Sultan's position to himself, taking a few steps back.
The meaning of the old sultan is already obvious.
The old sultan wanted to let him and the dozens of Seljuk generals in front of him escape the city that was about to be captured by the Mongolian army, and save the last fire for the Seljuk Empire!
Arp himself is a legendary hero with the characteristics of a monarch, plus dozens of core generals of the Seljuk Empire, as long as they are not captured by Wo Kuotai, Meng Ge and others, then the Seljuk Empire can make a comeback at any time and retake it. Empire!
"How about you, Your Majesty?"
"A rotten body, what a pity to die."
The old sultan was silent.
Dozens of generals in the Seljuk Empire bowed their heads and fell silent.
The Seljuk Empire, as "Lord", one of the three major powers in Central Asia, is facing the crisis of subjugation.
In the next two or three days, the Mongolian army will organize more troops, Xiangyang artillery, ballista, and launch an unprecedented fierce attack on the most important city of the Seljuk Empire!
Boom--
Under the attack of the Xiangyang artillery with the bonus of a Han Chinese general, the huge city wall in the south of the Seljuk Empire collapsed, and the sand and dust rose up to a height of seven or eight meters. All the defenders covered their mouths and noses, their faces pale.
Even though the Seljuks were defending this important city, they were still unable to stop the fierce Mongol offensive and collapsed!
The southern parapet has been destroyed, and the main city wall has collapsed. The defenders of the entire royal city are like sheep in a destroyed sheepfold, exposed to the wolves.
All the soldiers of the Mongolian army, Khwarazm army, and Persian army are waiting for the orders of the commanders Ogotai and Meng Ge.
As long as they are allowed to loot the city and even massacre the city, then they can get a lot of gold, silver and slaves from the king city of the wealthy Seljuk Empire.
Even the servant army, hoping to get rich from the war, has been assimilated by the Mongol Empire.
"Sacrifice the city for two days, but not massacre the city."
In the end, Wo Kuotai and Meng Ge punished this stubbornly resisting city.
The reason why the city was not slaughtered was to facilitate future tax collection and recruit the servant army of the Seljuk Empire.
The Seljuk soldiers weren't that weak either, but they were all troublesome opponents.
The Mongolian army, the Khwarazm army, and the Persian servant army who received the order to sack the city frantically invaded the city. The fleeing Seljuk defenders were unable to effectively organize street battles. destroy.
Suddenly, a group of cavalry broke out from the northwest gate!
The newly appointed Seljuk Sultan Arp, armed with a bow and arrow, took the lead, leading dozens of Seljuk generals and tens of thousands of cavalry to break through the Mongolian army besieging the city!
Three streams of light shot out, killing the Khwarizm cavalry who stood in front of him. Arp, with hatred for the country and the family, broke out with force, and there was no futile strike!
Behind Arp, dozens of Seljuk military generals wielded Turkic knives, spears, bones, mace and other weapons, followed Arp and fought desperately!
The Khwarizmo servant army guarding the northwest city gate did not expect that the defenders in the city would concentrate their main cavalry to break through the siege, and were caught off guard by Arp's killing, and thousands of Khwarizmo cavalry were trampled by war horses!
Arp fought **** battles with a group of generals of the Seljuk Empire, breaking through trenches and fences, and lost hundreds of cavalry himself. After breaking through layers by layers, he fled to the northwest!
In the upper reaches of the Syr Darya, there are more vast grasslands, and there are tribes that are loyal to the Seljuk Empire. As long as these tribes are controlled, the Seljuk Empire will still have the opportunity to make a comeback!
"Wo Kuotai, Meng Ge, and Yelu Dashi, all wait for me. I, the Sultan of the Seljuk Empire, Arp Arslan, will avenge the subjugation of the country!"
Arp breaks an arrow to show his will to die!
The general of Khwarizmo immediately came to report to Wo Kuotai: "A cavalry broke through the siege and fled along the upper Syr Darya River. It is suspected that the main general in the city fled!"
"Yelü Dashi, you lead three ten thousand households of troops to hunt down this cavalry. It is best to retrieve the head of its leader."
"Yes!"
Yelu Dashi commanded 30,000 cavalry to hunt down the remnants of the Seljuk Empire.
The remnants of the Seljuk Empire ~IndoMTL.com~ are like weeds. If they are not removed as soon as possible, they may become troubles in the future.
Wo Kuotai and Meng Ge don't want to leave trouble.
With the ability of Yelu Dashi and the strength of three thousand households, it is easy to deal with the remaining soldiers of the Seljuk Empire with low morale.
"How is the Seljuk Empire divided?"
Ogotai and Mungo had disputes over the Seljuks' territory because of the division of the spoils.
The Seljuk and Khwarizm territories are adjacent to each other, and in theory, should be under the control of Wo Kuotai, who ruled Khwarizm.
But Meng Ge, who came from the Ilkhanate, also contributed to the battle to conquer the Seljuk Empire, and the siege generals who provided bonuses for the Xiangyang Cannon were also from the Ilkhanate faction. The Ilkhanate should Can get a piece of the pie.
"I will rule for the time being. When your father Tuo Lei is ready to destroy the Persian Empire, I will lead the Khwarizmo and Seljuk coalition forces to support Tuo Lei, how about that?"
Wokuotai strikes a deal with Mungo.
Since the Tuo Lei faction sent troops to help Wokuotai take down the Seljuk Empire, then the Ogotai faction should also send troops to help Tuo Lei take down the Persian Empire.
In the past, each khanate overestimated its own strength and fought on its own. Now, these khanates realize that only by joining forces and destroying each civilization one by one can it be possible to conquer these civilizations.
"Next, go to support the Great Khan."
