Realm of Power

Under the setting sun like blood, the more than 100,000 grassland troops that had been surging like a tide just now began to slowly retreat. All their energy and spirit, like the vigor of a pack of wolves charging at the city wall, completely disappeared in an instant. The ravines outside the city left broken bodies and limbs all over the ground. , corpses were piled on top of each other, lying there layer by layer, especially in the area covered by slings. The corpse of the prairie man was punched in the face by an invisible giant, and the entire body of human limbs formed a A series of shocking reddish brown, this Such marks are even more than ten meters long. As long as the body is close to these reddish-brown marks, even the body wearing heavy infantry armor will appear twisted into an unnatural posture. The entire queue seems to have been blown up. Steel tower shield on the spot It was torn apart, and all kinds of unknown organs, flesh and blood were crushed into the soil. The desolate wolf beards on the grassland floated out from the direction of the grassland army camp with weeping words. Even the bravest warriors' eyes were subconscious. Avoided that area.

"What's the battle damage?"

Surrounded by more than a dozen prairie generals, Yelu Hongtai, who was wearing a large wolf-head armor and a red cloak, got off his horse with a strong figure. His cold eyes looked like a cold wind to an army statistician who hurried over and asked. Tao may have been influenced by the founding of the Yelu family, Although he is already sixty years old, the aging brought by time seems to have lost its effect on Yelu Hongtai, a grassland hero. A pair of eyes full of wisdom and coldness still makes everyone hold their breath unconsciously. This is the majesty of the prairie wolf! Even the grassland people themselves believe that the Yelu family is now very lucky and is the favorite of the Immortal Heaven. Even the Northern Royal Court, which is known as the true golden descendant, is not as dazzling as the Yelu family at the moment. And all of this, From one person, A man who has been hiding in the royal court for thirty years, with three hundred thousand wolf descendants and ferocity, is determined to establish a grassland people dynasty in Central Asia, Yelu Hongtai, "Sir, the total battle losses of each army are six thousand seven. One hundred and sixty people, more than 14,000 wounded."

The statistician who was holding the data that had just been calculated was holding the roster in both hands and kneeling on one knee with a slightly trembling body. After one month of the army entering Yanzhou, there were not as many people dying in one day as today." In other words, it was just one day. Our 20,000-strong grassland force has just withdrawn from the battle of Yanzhou? "

Yelu Hongtai stood upright with an ugly look on his face. He let go of the horse's reins and paused, his eyes flashing with anger.

When Yanzhou went to Beijing, Long Yang did not hesitate to use himself as bait, but also wanted to lure himself into the strongest barrier. It was indeed not difficult to attack, but if the Yelu family wanted to establish a country, they had to capture Yanzhou. To capture Yanzhou, Shangjing must be captured. This is a dead end that cannot be avoided or avoided! He knows it, the Prairie Army knows it, and Long Yang knows it. That’s why Long Yang seems so confident and not afraid that he will not let Yanzhou Shangjing invest in troops on this bloodthirsty defense line. "My lord, why do you need to be like this? Although our army has suffered heavy losses, it is worth it." "

Hearing the sadness in Yelu Hongtai's tone, a grassland general of the Yelu family came out and said in a loud voice, "Twenty thousand people are just an insignificant part of our army, and my subordinates believe that in today's battle, The 30,000 Long family's Western Army who are defending the capital will probably have a hard time. My subordinates can protect them. It proves that as long as this offensive continues for ten days, the attack on Beijing will definitely be in the pocket of our army. "Yes, if our army's 20,000 combat strength is knocked out, the Long family's Western Army will have to pay 6,700 to 7,000 even if it has an advantage." From this point of view, today’s attack is a good deal!” Another general from the Yelu family said, “Ten days!”

Yelu Hongtai's eyes flashed. When he led the 300,000 grassland people southward, they were as embarrassed as hungry people. He first attacked the Bialu Prefecture Army and defeated them in just two days. He pressed the troops northward to Yanzhou with a fierce momentum. The 60,000 Luzhou Army, even after they entered the Dijing Plain in Central Asia, did not dare to take a step out of Shangjing for more than ten days. During the battle in the Dijing Plain, they rushed into the plain on the fifth day, and on the eighth day On the seventeenth day after defeating the resistance of the Central-Bian army in Surabaya, they invaded the Central-Bian Imperial Capital. All in all, it took only one month to achieve the strategic goal that they had never dared to think about before. Ding decided to plan his own plan. After more than ten years of conquering the central part of China and Bibia, look at the current situation. A 160,000-strong army entered Yanzhou. The army advanced slowly, wearing fine armor and sufficient supplies. It took a month to reach Yanzhou and go to Beijing.

Yelu Hongtai felt helpless and walked into his military tent with a complicated expression. There were some words that he had not said just now. He was holding them in his heart like a ball of flame. A year ago, the three hundred thousand grassland tribes were in dilapidated condition. Not only did they go south, No purpose, and even eating Nothing can be guaranteed, but the current grassland army is wearing the most sophisticated armor in Central Asia and holding sharp weapons that can penetrate heavy armor. It is not what it used to be, but its combat power is obviously not as good as before. Is this true? Is this the price of entering central China?

For the entire Yelu army, this is just a phased attack, but for the prairie people, this is the return of 6,700 prairie warriors to the Immortal Heaven. Logically speaking, for thousands of years, prairie men have believed that they can kill one It was an honor to be killed in Yanzhou Shangjing City, but now, Yelu Hongtai could clearly feel that the hearts of the prairie warriors seemed to have changed. It was not sadness, but fear. These prairie warriors were afraid of Yanzhou. Go to Beijing

Is it no longer an honor to die in battle? Otherwise, how come at the moment when they heard the full-scale attack, the army's resolute spirit of moving forward was filled with some things that did not belong to the grassland warriors, cowardice, hesitation, fear of death, and even fleeing... Why! Yelu Hongtai murmured in a low voice, punching the big wooden pillar of the tent with one fist. He couldn't figure out why the same soldiers and generals, just one year, would have such a big gap?

The attack on Yanzhou Shangjing was just to fill in the gap with people! Why did the grassland cavalry who went on an expedition with bows and beef jerky on the bitter and cold grassland never take life and death seriously, but when they came here, they began to fear death! Yelu Hongtai, who was a man of great talent and strategy, still overlooked some things. The grassland people were also human beings. They were not afraid of death in the past because human life was worthless. Moreover, when a man died, the woman would take the child and follow other tribal men and children. No one would despise the children of the tribe. They would raise the children and put them on the back of the war horse with their own hands. They could draw the bowstring. Almost one-third of the men on the grassland did not grow up in a complete family. Most of their adoptive fathers were strict and ruthless, which naturally cultivated the indifferent character of the grassland men. On the grassland, where life is withered and flourished every year, people's lives are sometimes Not as good as livestock

But now it’s different

I’ve seen the prosperity of Central Asia, the beautiful southern women like water, taking whatever they want, silk smoother than the skin of grassland women, enough to be put on horses, spacious mansions, roasting hot charcoal, eating the most exquisite and delicious food, with this feeling of being a superior ruler, who would still take his life lightly? Now when I hear the blood-boiling grassland wolf call, I always hesitate before rushing forward. How can I still think about moving forward like before, moving forward, and using the scimitar in my hand to win a share of my own military exploits! "Sir, the outer sentry reports that the fifth batch of urgent reports from the Imperial Capital has arrived."

At night, there was a rapid rustling of footsteps. A general of the Yelu family nervously unveiled the curtain of Yelu Hongtai's military tent. The pale yellow light inside shone through. Yelu Hongtai had not rested yet. He was examining a Yanzhou Shangjing City Defense Map in his hand. Although it was Yelu Hongtai's tent, it was surprisingly simple. There was only a desk and a felt. If it weren't for the order tube with a wolf head order inserted on the table and the wooden rack with armor hanging on it, it would be very simple. Zi showed the map of Central Asia. I am afraid no one would think that this is the tent of the head of the Yelu family, which is in the limelight in the central part of Central Asia. "Tell him that the situation has been known. Don't enter the camp. Send him back immediately!" Yelu Hongtai put down the city defense map in his hand, raised his head calmly, and his tone revealed an unquestionable determination. Yanzhou Shangjing is close at hand. Now that they have fought here, there is absolutely no possibility of retreating. What if the 20,000 Western Army of the Long family rushed into the Imperial Capital Plain? Do they want to drag those conquered Central Asian slaves into a rebellion? What a joke! Even if we gather more Central Asian slaves, they are just a mob. We have left 10,000 cavalry in the Imperial Capital. We dare not say about other regions, but it is enough to suppress the Imperial Capital within a hundred miles. Other tribes have their own private soldiers. If they cannot resist, they will naturally move closer to the Imperial Capital. At that time, they will naturally gather into an army. How could these Central Asians know that this is how they survive on the grassland? I thought they would be like those cowardly Central Asians, who would surrender as long as the sheepfold was opened?

Just kidding, the descendants of wolves, when gathered together, are wolves! The survival rules of the grassland people, those Long family Western Army who invaded the Imperial Capital do not understand at all!

Long Po didn't know that he was doing what the Yelu family wanted to do but couldn't do due to the rules of the grassland. He personally led 20,000 elite soldiers of the Long family's Western Army into the Imperial Plain and launched a brutal sweep against the grassland tribes. Before the sun rose, the Imperial Plain was filled with white mist. Long Po, who was fully armored, rode on his warhorse and stared at the grassland cavalry gathering in front of him. These grassland cavalry didn't know how to defend the city at all. After he seized three cities in one breath, they simply did their old job, field battles!

In the distance, the grassland cavalry slowly approached this group. With a long wolf howl, the group of war horses began to move forward like waves, the horses' hooves stepped on the cold ground, and the wings of their noses touched the white breath. Under the sight of the Western Army, the group then suddenly rushed out from the front, accelerating like an avalanche with the arc of the slope. With superb horse-control skills, they clamped the horses under their crotch, without too much hesitation, and almost simultaneously advanced in an orderly manner. The grassland cavalry did not have much defense, but just held a semicircular tower shield inlaid with iron bars on their chests. These grassland cavalry gave up even the most basic volley, and actually directly regarded the elite of the Western Army of Long Po as the local army of Central Asia they had encountered before, thinking that if they rushed forward in one breath, the other party would flee in a rumble. This kind of thing has become uncommon in the Central Asia region. Shooting arrows at these Central Asians is a complete waste!

"Gun formation forward!" Long Po raised his hand and looked at the prairie cavalrymen who were coming at him like idiots. Damn it, a bunch of light cavalrymen dared to do this. What did they think of the Long family's heavy guns that dared to face the Murphy Dragon Armor Cavalry of the Western Continent! If I don't teach these prairie people how to behave, I'm not Long Po!
