Wan Buhai finally agreed to Hu Yanyu's request.
On the one hand, Wan Buhai believed that Liu Mingzhi would never cheat him or the more than 100,000 brothers under his command. They were both generals who had fought in the Western Expeditions. Wan Buhai knew that Liu Mingzhi could understand him.
On the other hand, Wan Buhai did not dare to gamble. If the 300,000 Northern Expedition soldiers really had less than 50,000 left, they would "return in triumph."
Wan Buhai couldn't comfort himself. He didn't have the face to face Jiangdong's elders, and he didn't have the face to set foot in the capital.
That kind of victory is invincible.
Three days later, Kong Desi and Wei Mingxing led their 23,000 cavalry to join the main road of the Northern Expedition.
That's right, that's 23,000 cavalry.
There were 30,000 people when they left, but only 23,000 people came back. Seven thousand people were surrounded and blocked by 120,000 Turks and died on the battlefield. Even their bones could not be recovered.
The body is truly buried in a foreign land, why should it be returned wrapped in horse leather?
There is no need for a graveyard to bury the bones. There are green mountains everywhere in life.
The Turks also paid a heavy price. Facing 30,000 dragon cavalry whose riding and archery skills were evenly matched with theirs, and whose armor and crossbows were several times stronger than theirs, they lost tens of thousands of lives. tribesmen.
It seems incredible but is actually natural.
Turks mostly wear leather armor, and many of them cannot even wear leather armor.
It is too difficult to smelt iron on the grassland. Facing the seemingly large number of well-equipped dragon cavalry, they have no advantage at all when they are shooting at each other with the equally superb riding skills.
Other people's arrows can pierce your eyes, but your arrows can't even penetrate other people's armor. You can only succeed by shooting at the weakly defended neck.
However, if you are chasing a fast horse, you are not so sure of your accuracy.
If shooting at a man fails, then shoot at a horse. If you fall under the horse, you can still kill the enemy. This will make the Turks even more jealous and headache.
The main parts of the dragon's war horse are covered with a thin layer of armor, which is so light that it does not affect the speed of the war horse at all.
The Turks, who did not know the watering technology, could only secretly sigh at the superb skills of the Han people, who could actually make the armor so thin and light, and could also equip it in large quantities.
In the end, the only thing left to fight is the endurance of the horse.
Thirty thousand cavalrymen rushed out from the siege of 120,000 enemies. It was not that their skills were much better than those of the Turks, but that the iron caltrops in the saddles on their horses slowed the charge of the Turks.
Facing the caltrops dropped by the enemy from time to time, the Turks gnashed their teeth in hatred.
What happens when a person gets pierced in the foot is the same as when a war horse gets pierced in the foot. Facing the enemy army of the big dragon that dropped the caltrops from time to time, the Turks lost a lot of people and had no choice but to pursue in a roundabout way around the scope of the caltrops.
The distance that had been so close was once again widened.
The 30,000 cavalry used their own advantages to attack the enemy's weaknesses with their own strengths, and managed to hold up more than 100,000 enemy troops for more than a month without being completely wiped out.
We admit that we cannot defeat you, but we will retreat strategically.
This is what our former commander said, this is not called escape, it is called strategic retreat, no shame!
If we can't defeat you, you can't even try to catch up with us.
In the end, both sides lost their way in the vast grassland. The 30,000 dragon cavalry could not find the main army, and the Turkic reinforcements did not know where the two Jialisi troops they were assisting were.
There was no other way. The aggrieved Turkic reinforcements could only pursue and fight the 30,000 cavalry, hoping to get the victory back from the enemy in front of them.
The advantages of armor are particularly obvious on the battlefield.
It was precisely because of this that the Turks, who were both skilled in horsemanship, traded a large amount of armor from Dalong Border Pass, and the Huyan Royal Court, which had exchanged a lot of armor with the Jin Kingdom, was able to defeat the Royal Court of Spies.
With the same skills, the result of leather armor versus iron armor can be imagined.
In later generations, it will be ordinary people versus cheaters, which fully embodies a sentence.
Going against RMB players will never end well.
Even so, the loss of so many troops was enough to make Wan Buhai feel distressed and sleepless.
If Liu Mingzhi knew about this situation, I wonder if he would beat his hands and feet, gnash his teeth and curse his mother.
In just a few months, the 7,000 brothers who followed him in the Western Expedition were gone again. The brothers he had brought back with all his efforts in a few years did not know how many were left.
Just as Wan Buhai was worried, more than 100,000 reinforcements were actually united with more than a dozen small tribes on the Hetao Grassland, with a total of about 240,000 soldiers and horses.
Wan Buhai looked at the 100,000 members of the Huyan Royal Court who were fully armored not far away. The endless cavalry as far as the eye could see was truly majestic.
Wan Buhai had a calm expression on his face, but he was extremely worried in his heart.
The Western Turks with primitive and crude equipment are already so difficult to deal with, but what about the well-equipped East Turks.
In the future, when Dalong goes out of the border in the north, what price will it have to pay to dominate the world? What's more, there is an increasingly full-fledged Jin Kingdom eyeing the north.
"Prince Huyan, I will leave the 120,000 reinforcements from the Royal Court of Spieth to you to deal with. Is there any problem? If you think that I am deliberately letting you choose strong enemies to consume your strength, we can Change it up and you can deal with the soldiers and horses in the Hetao Grassland."
Hu Yanyu shook his head silently: "Juniors are no different, they all obey the instructions of seniors!"
Wan Buhai nodded slightly: "In that case, let's go on the expedition. I hope the war can end before winter comes. Winter in the grassland comes too early. Once the road is blocked by heavy snow, we will have to wait another year!"
"The war is changing rapidly. Who can say for sure what the situation will be like in the coming year!"
"Junior thinks so too!"
"Generals, obey the order!"
"We obey orders!"
"Act according to the opportunity and go north to ask for..."
Wan Buhai glanced at Hu Yanyu and sighed: "Go north to kill the enemy!"
"Got the order!"
Hu Yanyu's face was indifferent, and he unconcernedly drew out his sword and waved it lightly and shouted in Turkic dialect: "Bake Khanna, Peru obeys the order!"
"The general will obey your orders!"
"Go north and kill the enemy."
"It's an order."
............
The Golden Palace!
The empress, with her majestic appearance, looked at the letter in Hui'er's hand with astonishment. After a few breaths, the empress came to her senses and put down the ink pen in her hand.
Her white and flawless lotus feet trotted to take the letter from Hui'er: "The little goblin sent a hundred thousand troops to help the dragon conquer the Royal Court of Spieth? Are you sure the information is correct?"
Hui'er nodded heavily: "Your Majesty, you'd better read it yourself. The content of the information is clear on the letter."
The Queen looked at the contents on the letter paper with suspicion, and after a moment she put away the letter with a slight frown.
The pretty face was full of confusion: "It doesn't make sense. The little goblin has always been treating Dalong's Northern Expedition army and the war in the Royal Court of Spieth based on the principle of sitting on the mountain and watching the fight between tigers. Why did he suddenly send troops to help? ? There’s some reason behind this that I don’t know!”
"Could it be that Huyan Yunyao knew that she still couldn't fight against the Spies Royal Court in Pangen Grassland, so she had no choice but to join forces with Dalong to fight against the enemy!"
The Queen shook her head slightly: "It can't be this reason. All the previous results show that the Huyan Royal Court can beat the Spies Royal Court to death. After all, the Huyan Royal Court who has obtained so many armors is not a historical figure wearing leather armor. It can be compared to the Royal Court of Bisi!"
"There is no need for the little goblin to join forces with the dragon to fight against the enemy."
"Then Hui'er can't figure out why Huyan Yunyao suddenly changed her mind. What does this do to her..."
The hawks screamed, and Hui'er hurriedly jumped out of the hall. A moment later, Hui'er ran in holding a bamboo tube.
"Your Majesty, new information."
The queen took the bamboo tube and looked through it without hesitation.
In an instant, the letter in Queen Price's hand was crumpled into a ball, and she bit her pretty face with her silver teeth, full of jealousy.
"py transaction must be py transaction."
Hui'er looked at the Queen who was gnashing her teeth and was stunned.
"ah?"
"Ah, what are the secrets that the heartless man and the little goblin have?"
"A couple of bastard men and women actually hooked up and committed adultery behind my back. I hate it, I hate it!"
The queen walked towards the dressing mirror angrily, looking at herself in the mirror with her beautiful appearance, tall and curvy figure, and she clenched the letter in her hand bitterly.
"Three inches above the navel are peaks, and seven inches below the navel are open to the secluded area. I am no better than that little goblin who wants nothing special! Aren't you just a few years younger? Do you know how to play?"
"Quick investigation, find out all the ins and outs of this incident."
Hui'er looked at the queen grumbling in the mirror with a strange look on her face, and suppressed her smile before slowly fading away.
Four words came to Hui'er's mind involuntarily.
Deep boudoir and resentful woman!
"Yes, Hui'er is resigning."
"etc!"
"His Majesty?"
"Let the Ministry of Internal Affairs collect all the ginseng kings scattered among the people, buy as many as they can, and send them all to the palace for me!"
"yes!"
PS: Uh-huh, let me solemnly explain that py is the abbreviation of friend!
