…
On the Mobei grassland, heaven and earth merge into one. On the distant horizon, a galloping Yan cavalry troop moves from far to near, bringing up billowing clouds and wild sand, sweeping across...
On the other side, the troops of the Munro Empire stood in front of a wooden fort. Displayed at the front were densely packed horse-fighting weapons and six- to eight-pound artillery pieces.
"Drive~"
The cavalry galloped, led by the general of the Yan State, Murong Lian, wearing two layers of heavy armor, holding a three-meter-thick tiger spear, and staring at the Mengluo position in the distance with his cold eyes.
Behind him, five thousand heavy cavalrymen of the Yan Kingdom, built with a lot of money, were desperately mobilizing their horses to gallop forward.
After Murong Lian became Khan, he united all the Murong tribes and servant tribes on the grassland and established a powerful Yan Dynasty. He imitated the pattern of the Central Plains and established a complete system and solid cities on the Mobei grassland. Becoming the most powerful foreign country on the grassland since the Munro Empire.
Today, Murong Lian went on a personal expedition, vowing to uproot the last remaining power of the Mengluo Empire in Mobei.
Due to the suppression of the Han army, the living environment of Yan State became more and more difficult. Although there were nearly 8 million people in the country, compared with Monan, the barren land could not support more people at one time.
They can only survive by constantly fighting and killing, and seizing resources from the Munro people.
After ten years of fierce fighting, the Mengluo Empire was already in decline. If not for the support of the Han Dynasty, the pastures and land would have been swallowed up by the Yan Kingdom.
Today, the Battle of Mobei is a life-or-death battle between Mengluo Empire and Dayan Kingdom.
As a Khan, Tuobasi had already been waiting in front of the wooden castle. He kept clenching his fists and stood on the wooden wall watching the rolling waves.
Once upon a time, Munro's army also had such cavalry units.
However, with the betrayal and rise of the Murong clan, and the death of his father Tuoba Hongye in battle, everything disappeared.
"fire!"
The moment the Yan cavalry entered the shooting range, Officer Meng Luo gave an order, and the thirty-two artillery pieces suddenly roared.
"Xu~~"
Under the raging artillery fire, Yan's heavily armored cavalry suddenly fell on their backs. The heavy body on the horse's back, together with the horse's fall to the ground, was doomed to a bleak fate of death in a hundred battles.
"fire!"
"Boom boom boom boom——"
As the artillery continued to rage, the advancing cavalry had lost its original formation. In the face of this technological power, the purebred king of the cold weapon era could only follow the trend and was gradually eliminated from the field.
After six consecutive artillery fires, Yan's cavalry lost more than 500 horses. The remaining horses were frightened by the roar of the artillery. The cavalry on horseback could no longer control their mounts and began to spin around.
When Tuoba Si saw this scene, his frown relaxed.
The proud cavalry is so vulnerable in front of these firearms.
"Ding ding ding~"
Seeing that the attack was frustrated, Murong Lian decisively ordered the golden bell to ring for withdrawal.
Murong Lian could only sigh helplessly at this, gathered up the remaining cavalry troops and withdrew towards the rear.
Murong Lian sighed when he saw this: "It's amazing. I thought that the Mengluo people would be weak after losing a lot of horse farms, but I never thought that because of the Han Dynasty's firearms,
It can actually make it difficult for Yan State's cavalry to move forward. If this problem cannot be solved, Dayan's desire to unify the grasslands and compete in the Central Plains can only be empty talk. "
As soon as he finished speaking, a Han man wearing a fur coat behind him said immediately: "The Holy Emperor does not need to worry. Although the artillery is powerful, there is a gap in its shooting, and it cannot be fired continuously for a long time.
The Holy Emperor could completely use these shortcomings of the artillery and deploy appropriate tactics to defeat them in one fell swoop. "
Murong Lian turned around and glanced at the Han man, then smiled and said: "I never thought that General Li, who was famous in the Central Plains in the past and the former prince-in-law, would actually be willing to serve the foreigners you call him."
The Han nationality was Li Suwen. While serving his sentence in the Far East, he accidentally met Xu Xin'er, the adopted daughter of Xu Wenjing.
Xu Xin'er, who was in love for the first time, was quickly impressed by Li Suwen's charm and had an inexplicable sense of intimacy, so she tried every means to rescue him from the prison camp.
However, after being freed, Li Suwen looked at the new empire that was getting stronger and stronger, and remembered that his family had died because of Liu Ce, and that he had ended up like this, and he rekindled his anger for revenge.
Because Xu Xin'er admired Li Suwen, she was willing to follow him to destroy the empire. She even sold her possessions and fled outside the Great Wall, found Murong Lian and became a staff member of the Yan Kingdom.
During this period, Li Suwen and Xu Xin'er couldn't help but fall in love, and finally had an acquaintance with Guan Bao in a tent outside the Great Wall, completely establishing their relationship.
"Holy Emperor, there is an agreement between you and me. If I help you wipe out the Tuoba tribe, you must help me overthrow the Han Dynasty! If I personally take off Liu Ce's head to pay homage to my father."
"I will naturally not break my promise to you. Tell me how to defeat Tuoba Si's army. The Yan Kingdom suffered a white disaster last year and the army did not have enough food and grass to fight a protracted war with them!"
Li Suwen thought for a moment and twitched the corner of his mouth slightly: "Why should the Holy Emperor only limit himself to the fortress in front of him? The grassland is so big, why not go around and attack the rear of the Mengluo tribe?
I heard that the Mengluo tribe’s pasture in Mobei is only more than 700 miles away, and it can be reached in less than five days at the speed of the Yan Kingdom’s cavalry.
The water and grass there are rich and fertile, and the Tuoba royal family is stationed there. If they capture him, the Mengluo soldiers in front of them will lose their morale. "
Murong Lian laughed when he heard this and said: "That's easy to say. There are tens of thousands of cavalry guarding the left wing of the royal army in Mobei. It is not easy to capture it. If Tuoba Si raises his troops to come back for reinforcements, our army will be flanked."
Li Suwen said: "What the Holy One said is absolutely true, but if Tuoba Yuhai had been there before, it would have been impossible for the royal troops on the left to capture it. However, after Tuoba Yuhai died of illness, there was no one who was good at using troops in Mengluo.
Tuoba Heng, who is currently guarding the left wing of the royal family, is a complete loser. Wouldn’t the Holy Emperor not even have the courage to deal with him? "
Murong Lian thought for a moment, and then shouted: "General Murong Chui has been sent to see you."
Not long after, Murong Chui knelt down beside Murong Lian: "What is the important matter that my emperor has summoned the general to come here for?"
Murong Leng said: "I asked you to lead five thousand light cavalry of our army and attack the king's troops on the left with three horses at a time. Do you dare to agree?"
Murong Chui frowned, glanced at Li Suwen who was next to Murong Lian, and then said: "The last general will direct the troops and go out at noon. The king's troops on the left wing will be defeated within seven days!"
"Okay, I will wait here for the general's triumphant return!"
"I'll say goodbye!"
Looking at Murong Chui's leaving figure, Li Suwen suggested: "Holy Emperor, I don't know whether to say something or not."
"Um."
"General Murong Chui seems to be quite prejudiced against me."
"He is like this, you don't need to care."
"I am afraid that if Murong Chui insists on his own merits, he will be detrimental to the Holy Emperor in the long run."
Murong Lian heard the words, pondered for a moment, and sighed: "No, Murong Chui is loyal to the Yan Kingdom and has made countless military exploits. He has not suffered a single defeat in the fifty world wars so far. He is the God of War of the Yan Kingdom.
It was he who defeated Tuoba Hongye and helped me ascend the throne of God and found the Kingdom of Yan. How could he have second thoughts? "
Li Suwen smiled: "The Holy Emperor is also a talented man on the grassland, doesn't he know how people's minds change?"
Murong Lian stopped talking and just stood quietly in the strong wind.
