Power and Empire Chapter 1615: People from Dongting are here (3)

The fat man took the cavalry into the long wall defense line, and the scene in front of him began to barren. In order to resist the invasion of millions of Slavs, all the villages within fifty miles of the long wall defense line were relocated, and the entire area was expanded into At most, 300,000 people have been stationed behind this long wall, of which 150,000 are the army, and 150,000 are the families of the Fifth Army who withdrew from the Slavic region to the west. Stable, all the people who stayed here have moved to the northwest coast

It has just been a few months, everything in front of me is like going through a Niehai Sangtian, the cruel winter of thousands of miles of ice, has been completely covered by a sea of ​​flowers, I see a line of space between the sky and the earth in the distance When the wall was long, the fat man stopped the horse, and the chūn scene in front of him was like a flower picture, but it was not compatible with this matter. The fat man had no intention to appreciate the chūn meaning in front of him, so he was wetted by the patter of rain.

In April, when the grass grows eagles, even in the winter, it is like a spotless wilderness. At this moment, there are vigorous weeds. The dots of wild flowers are like raindrops, like a huge flower carpet. It spread outside the city wall. The crisis in the southwest has just passed. The arrival of the Dongting people makes the situation seem confused and unable to judge.

Considering that although there is nothing in the southwest, the generals still need to be guarded, the fat man did not order Saran to go north with him, but ordered him and Lidarcus to jointly guard the southwest border. Both of them are Samor. The age follows its own old people. One is good at military and the other is good at politics. It is not bad to have personal relations in private. A short time should be enough to prevent Southwest from taking advantage of it.

Seeing the horse team of the zhōngyāng cavalry, the long wall defender immediately sent a team of cavalry to respond. Although in order to fight Algernon Katja, the fat man took the risk and transferred most of the troops from the long wall, but the long wall The side still maintains a standing guard of ten thousand people, in accordance with the five lines of defense possessed by the Long Wall. Fatty believes that for Dongting people who are not good at attacking cities, they cannot cross the long wall if they have no more than 100,000 troops.

But this is what Fatty is worried about. How many people from Dongting have come this time? There is no specific number yet. Once the long wall is broken. The northwest will be the terrain of Pingchuan, facing a large-scale cavalry raid, there will be no more terrain that can be stopped

The interspersing ability of the East Court Cavalry has always been thrilling. Wherever they passed, the corpses were everywhere, leaving no grass. It is a true scorched earth policy. The Northwest, which has insufficient military strength and population, cannot fight such a war at all.

On the third day after Fatty arrived at the northern city wall, as expected, more East Court troops appeared outside the long wall. This time, not only were all the cavalry, but also a large infantry queue. . The darkness is overwhelming, at least more than 50,000 people, almost covering the area in front of the city wall, posing a siege posture along the long wall

The fat man was standing on the long wall and was also looking at the Dongting people who lined up on the opposite side. His eyebrows were slightly frowned. The cavalry with a light horse and a bow was not very different from the prairie cavalry of Ikadiva. Unexpectedly. The so-called Eastern Infantry soldiers who appeared later were all weak, but they were all Slavs from their outfits, and they seemed to be treated very poorly.

Wearing in tatters is like a linen cloth strip, each face is yellow and thin, and the queue is very scattered. Most of the weapons in his hands were simple hatchets and simple wooden shields, and they were of different ages. It seemed that as long as the men who could hold the weapons were driven out. Although the number of people is large, the combat power is obviously not strong,

The sturdy and unusual steppe cavalry riding on the battle horses are located behind the Slavic infantry queue like guards. Each one has cold eyes and sharp scimitars. The number is about 3,000. The soldiers are jīng and powerful, similar to the front. The infantry of the cannon fodder is in sharp contrast,

At this time, at the front end of these East Court cavalry, there are two East Court Cavaliers, and they are also looking at the long wall in front of them, their eyes are very complicated.

‘Father, the **** Zhamu Hebi gave us so many miscellaneous soldiers, forcing us to fight! ‘The young-looking Kujit Qianqi chief clasped his whip and said angrily.

‘Anyway, it would be nice if we didn’t let us go directly! 'Mie'er Jiqi had a calm face, staring at the city wall in front, and sighed secretly, saying,'Zamu Hebi still has some scruples. This way of tracking, although the million Slavs who disappeared were not found, they were also captured. More than 70,000 Slav slaves, Zamu Hebi is now willing to take out half of it, not only for the face of the well-meaning adult on the left, but also for the plan to try this long wall'

‘It’s just thirty thousand slaves, and Zamu is too stingy! "The corner of the young man's mouth sneered contemptuously"

'What do you know, siege is like pile of snow, and a wave of three stacks is the way. These 30,000 slaves are only used to shake the city wall. I believe that the combination of wood and wood will drive the remaining 40,000 for a long time. The old and weak slaves should also go up. It’s better to die, so that we can give the other party a cold-blooded and endless psychological burden. As long as the other party’s insistence is cracked, the military will be turbulent, and the wood will work together. That's when the Cangjun army is really dispatched! ‘

‘That old fox! "The young man snorted." The earth behind the long wall must be full of wealth. I really want to let the Cang army take the lead. I am afraid that Zhamu Hebi will not even give us a cup of the leftovers.

‘Beat the drum! Where is there so much nonsense, ‘Mie’er Jiqi doesn’t want to go on, waved his hand,

‘Boom boom boom! ‘A violent drum sounded from behind the slave’s cannon fodder. The slave’s face turned pale, and tens of thousands of Slav infantry with simple weapons began to move.

‘Go forward, go back and kill! ‘

The East Court cavalry followed closely. As long as they saw the backward, they immediately chopped it over. Under the blood-stained scimitar of the East Court Cavalry, the slaves were like a tumbling dragon, and the black heads began to squirm. Like a flock of driven sheep, these Dongting slave troops are looking at the trenches and solid walls in front with wandering and helpless eyes.

The two fathers and sons behind Mier didn’t care at all about driving the slaves to attack the city. The slaves were sacrificed, so they couldn’t raise them like sheep. All the land is the pasture of the Dongting people, and the people on it Naturally, it is also a flock that can be driven. It has always been the habit of the Dongting people to drive away the slave infantry as a cannon fodder to siege the city.

Although the power of the cannon fodder is weak, the combat effectiveness is extremely poor, and sometimes a disease or plague breaks out, and the slave army can die again. But if you get a certain amount, you can also destroy the city and the country

Dongting people slaughtered the country and killed countless people in the Central Biya area. They were already proficient in this slave cannon fodder tactics. The Dongting imperial cavalry always took the initiative to avoid the main border defense forces on the border.

Send scattered cavalry to continuously attack the weak surrounding towns, and then it is like a small river converges into a river. It wasn’t until hundreds of thousands of cannon fodder were piled up that it began to move towards the main city in the center.

The main force of the enemy army was finally forced to fight, watching the hundreds of thousands of miserable compatriots ahead, moving like a colony of ants driven by the cavalry, and the voices of crying father and mother rushing into the sky. Under the sharp scimitars of the East Court cavalry, they had to advance step by step, even the sharp army was at a loss.

If the Dongting people play against themselves, they will definitely order shè arrows ruthlessly. Even if the people in front of them die, they will never give the enemies behind them a chance.

Because they know that as long as they hesitate. Either the army will move or choose to retreat temporarily, and the position will be shaken. The main force of the Eastern cavalry behind the cannon fodder will show sharp fangs like a viper, and the hoofed Eastern cavalry will be behind the slave army. When horses stepped and slashed, hundreds of thousands of slaves who were already terrified would pour forward like a flood across the embankment and directly overwhelm the opposing army. This method is tried and tested.

‘Your Majesty. Do we need to attack? ‘

Sardins, commander of the Seventh Banner of the zhōngyāng Army, who was in charge of the Long Wall Defense, asked the fat man for instructions. He was specially recommended by Hu Keqili because of his fierce fighting, and he was promoted from the local banner commander to the banner commander of the seventh banner map of the zhōngyāng army.

‘No hurry, wait! ‘

The fat man stared at the person who was crossing the outermost trench in the distance, and shook his head. There are giant catapults on the long wall of defense, and the shècheng can go directly to the fifth trench at the outermost periphery. In the previous arrangement, every trench must be filled with black oil. As long as the enemy enters it, use rockets to ignite the trenches one by one,

If the opponent wants to get close to the city wall, even if it is filled with corpses, this is also the most terrifying part of the long wall defense. In the battle of siege, the fighting spirit is firstly emphasized, and then the military spirit. After the fire, it is even 100,000 yuan. The Southwest Army was also blocked under similar defensive measures under Rwanda Acre for a full 14 days, unable to move forward.

But the current situation is different. In order to support the besieged city of Rwanda Acre, the fat man has ordered all the black oil to be pumped away and transported to Rwanda Acre, which also left a very serious sequelae, the Battle of the Southwest. It has only been over a month, and there is not enough black oil to fill it in. Except for a part of the last two trenches, the other three outer trenches are just wider dry trenches.

The slaves crawled through the first outer trench with a hesitant look, and found that the wall on the opposite side was calm. Tens of thousands of defenders looked at them like this, seeming to be a little hesitant

'Go! ,fast! ‘The slaves started to speed up, especially the slaves in the front. They were all ready to be cannon fodder, but found that the other party hesitated and didn’t run yet. Are they waiting for the stone to come down from the city

‘It looks like we are betting right! ‘The corner of the mouth of Mi’er Jiqi in front of the East Court Cavalry showed a sneer. These Slavs were left behind during the winter migration away from their homeland for hundreds of years.

Millions of Slavs are coming like a torrent, and the mud and sand are all down. Of course, many tribes bless the luck, thinking that the Dongting people will not chase here, and some quietly stopped halfway. , Those who are unwilling to move on, or stay where they are, the great migration of millions of people is a history of blood and tears,

On this migratory road, at least more than one hundred thousand Slavs fell on the road before they arrived, and those who arrived were forced to cross the frozen snow-capped mountains by fat people. It is said that the death toll exceeded fifty thousand. People, the Slavs made such a big sacrifice and lost one-tenth of the population in order to completely escape the pursuit from the Dongting people.

Sure enough, the climate had just warmed, and those Slavs who were still stuck in the wilderness and kept a lucky heart were all swept away by the Eastern Court Cangjun who came after them. The Eastern Court Cavalry was originally the king in the wilderness tracking. Thousands of cavalry were scattered along a long line of hundreds of miles, like a huge layer of nets, big fish and small fishes, as long as the remaining Slavs did not miss any of them,

To deal with these captured Slavs, Zhamu Hebi used **** control methods, and divided the Slavs into groups according to a hundred people. As long as one person resisted or fled. All a hundred people were killed. After so many times, more than 4,000 people were killed. No one of the Slavs dared to escape again,

More than a hundred thousand Slavs were urged by 20,000 cavalry soldiers and rolled obediently towards the northwestern part of Obaro. Not only because of the strength of the Dongting cavalry, but also because their wives and children are under the control of the Dongting people,

If they violate a little bit, not only will the hundred people with their own team be cruelly executed, but also the family of these hundred people will not be spared. The ruthlessness of the Dongting people is like a sharp knife. Let the Slavs monitor each other and dare not make any rash actions,

When they crossed the second outer trench, the Slavic slave army had already decided that the opponent would not attack, and began to cheer up. Whether the opponent is too kind has nothing to do with them, they only know. When the drum beat stops, if they can’t hit the long wall in front of them, their situation will be very miserable,

The practice of urging slaves to attack cities in Dongting has been going on for hundreds of years. In terms of urging methods, they will never give the slaves a little bit of luck. If they don’t force themselves into death, how could slaves risk their deaths? Siege. So it’s not just the sound of the soul-stimulating siege drum, which is their urging drum,

And every ten minutes, the arrow rain from the rear will cover all the two rows of people who are dragged to the end. Most of the people who run slowly are weak and weak, and it is useless to keep them! In the eyes of Dongting people, killing a slave is better than killing a sheep!

‘Ready! ‘Mi'er Jiqi raised his hand behind with a cold face. The three thousand eastern cavalrymen at the rear tacitly took down the powerful composite bow behind them neatly, and coldly took out a spiked barb feather arrow from the quiver, and the bowstrings were pulled apart neatly, and the air was full at this moment. It paused.

The sharp point of the arrow points to the sky, and it lifts neatly into the air forty-five degrees,

‘shè! ‘

The cold light is like a dot, and countless white lines are drawn across the sky with a command. Arrow clusters straight into the sky, and then quickly slide down, leading to the back of the slave army in front of them in an arc

'Ah' The Slavic slave army was turned over in a sudden arrow rain. At least more than 2,000 slaves were directly covered. There were countless casualties. The wounded soldiers tumbling on the ground screamed and killed 3,000 arrows. 2,000 people did not die, but more than 500 people died, and about a thousand people were injured. Some Slavs who escaped by chance just got up and wanted to run up immediately.

But the Eastern Cavalry will obviously not let them go. A group of Eastern Cavalry patrolling back and forth, facing these Slavs, is like hunting a sheep one by one. The fourth trench in front is a life and death. Line, if you pass, you will live, but you will die, more than 2,000 people, only a few less than ten people ran through this killing

‘Sure enough! ‘

Dongting cavalry did not let the wounded soldiers let go, and finally let the fat man no longer remain calm. The opponent is not generally ruthless. It is estimated that Rui Tangtingna will not be ruthless to this extent.

He knew that if he didn't say anything about the tens of thousands of Slavs who were driven crazy under the city, they would really desperately attack the city! In this world, people are always good at being deceived

The fat man retracted his gaze from below, and spit out two words coldly on his face, ‘Ignite! ‘

He didn't let the city head attack. It was entirely to figure out the siege tactics of the Dongting people. Now it seems that it is indeed very cruel. He even killed his own people and completely forced tens of thousands of people to death. These Slavs Don’t dare to turn back and go back to fight with the Dongting people, then you have to fight with yourself,

‘Fire! ‘

Sardins, who was ordered by His Majesty Falcon, yelled. The rocket shè from the city wall ignited the trench closest to the inner side of the city wall. The blazing flames rose to the sky, and the Slavic slaves who were running forward were immediately frightened. Jump, in front of them is an endless wall of fire, the waves are rolling, standing too close, sitting on the ground with a scared butt, and quickly crawling behind

‘Fire, fire! ‘

The Slavic slaves under the city wall are all in chaos. They have never seen black oil. The fire broke out too suddenly, as if it suddenly emerged from the ground, not to mention them, even the eastern cavalry behind. All the horses were frightened by the weirdness in front of them, and the people in Dongting were not afraid of it~IndoMTL.com~ The most feared was this kind of inexplicable ghosts and gods. At this moment, even the slaves did not pay attention to the siege drums behind. Stopped

‘Father, what should I do? ‘Brother Mi’erjin looked at his father with an ugly face,

Mia'er Jiqi's face is not good, he hesitated, and gritted his teeth and said, ‘Continue to order the siege. Before Zhamu Hebi’s order was given, some retreats were killed without permission! Even if all 30,000 slaves were thrown under the long wall, it would be better than being taken down by Zhamu's father and son in a cowardly fight! ‘

‘Yes, I understand! ‘Brother Mi’erjin’s face is getting cold again, slave, it doesn’t matter how many people die,

‘Boom boom boom! ‘

The sound of the siege drum that made the slaves disperse their souls came again, and the raging wall of fire was blocking the front, and behind was the ruthless siege drum of the Dongting people. Tens of thousands of Slavs did not know what to do.

Thinking that my relatives are still in the hands of the Dongting people, some people finally rushed into the wall of fire, and finally came out with flames all over,

Rolling on the ground, the miserable cry did not stop until he was replaced by an axe.
