Realm of Power

"Go forward and avenge my Yanzhou!"

Bai Wufeng's Yanzhou heavy cavalry was mixed in with the iron current of the Dongting cavalry. They moved forward at the highest height they could reach, holding a heavy steel spear in one hand and a Yanzhou heavy sword in the other. The heavy cavalry was so heavy that it was in contact with the steel spear. His hand was like a sickle in the hand of the God of Death, and the flesh and blood of the Long family soldiers were flying everywhere.

At this time, Bai Wufeng was no longer a human being, but a vengeful god of death! The Yanzhou heavy cavalry followed his back. They charged harder than the imperial heavy cavalry. The Zhongbia Yanzhou heavy sword, which had repeatedly crushed the prairie cavalry, slashed with great force and heavy force, directly cutting down the running target. Killed in two pieces, into pieces When the Long family soldiers fell to the ground, they saw a bright flash of sword light. The human body was like a strong wind blowing wheat waves. The crazy fighting spirit and the invincible offensive showed more impact than the real imperial heavy cavalry. Even stronger

I am afraid that even the Long family themselves did not expect that the two armies that were once the strongest combat forces in the Zhongbia Empire would face each other in this way. The Yanzhou heavy cavalry smashed the front to pieces and defeated them. The scattered Long family soldiers fled in panic, although An order was issued to retreat across the entire line, but more than 100,000 people were trapped in the chaotic flow of people. Where could they escape? Under the blazing flames, the imperial cavalry came like a pack of wolves and cut in from behind. The rear troops completely collapsed in an instant, and even more It caused great panic among the Long family soldiers.

"The Imperial Cavalry is coming, run!"

They are the proud Long family army and the heroes in the hearts of the Central Asian people. But at this moment, howling on the verge of death and turning around to escape in despair, they have nothing to do with the glorious Long family army. They are scattered all over the mountains and plains. They are all disintegrated Long family armies. Since the rise of the Long family, there has never been such a scene.

The army of more than 100,000 people was beaten to pieces and fled in a panic. Seeing his headless body falling heavily to the ground, the fear was still flying in his mind.

It has been completely dispersed, and the army has been defeated like a mountain. Whether it is the meritorious troops with outstanding military exploits or the newly recruited recruits, they have all lost their courage. The elites of each army have been defeated one after another, and they are running like wolves and rabbits. Large groups of scattered soldiers fled in panic, not knowing the difference between east, west, north and south.

The torrent of thousands of cavalry chased them, massacred them, and drowned them all at once. Even these Central Asians themselves couldn't help but fell into the flow of fleeing people. The great escape of more than 100,000 people finally turned into an insurmountable disaster. A collapse of containment, a hysterical panic.

In the crowding and chaos, countless Long family soldiers were trampled to death by their own family members. Even the officers above gave up their efforts to organize resistance. When the superiors issued the order to retreat, they had already stated that they should run if they could! Who will stay to resist! Those with no way to run had no choice but to collapse towards the two wings, where what was waiting for them were sharp arrows flying towards them.

On both sides are the hunting grounds of the Imperial Archers. Just look at these Dongting Archers wearing light armor. Not only are their horses running extremely fast, but the shooters on horseback are also extremely accurate. The Dongting Archers were the best in the Ikadiva era. Dongting’s strongest combat force is selected from the true archery masters of the tribe, that is, Even on a galloping war horse, one can easily hit a target a hundred meters away. Facing the Central Asians fleeing to both sides, they are like knives on both sides of the impact line, killing with arrow clusters. , firmly pressing the Long family's army in the middle, which was trying to disperse to both sides, so that the collision power of the heavy cavalry could be maximized.

Arrows flew across the sky, and my companions fell one by one.

"I will fight with you!"

A desperate Long family officer, covered in blood, used the sword in his hand to hit the helmet of the Imperial heavy cavalry in vain. It hit the breastplate and was bounced. Then, under the thunderous pressure of the Imperial cavalry, he stood in front of the war horse. , his body couldn't bear it at all, and he couldn't stand up Stopping in his tracks, he was pierced through the chest by a heavy spear that drank a lot of human blood. He was picked up by the horse, and finally he was thrown down heavily and was trampled into a pulp by countless horse hooves. This was like this Scenes abound in the Long Family's disastrous defeat in the Kaishan War.

"You can give the order to stop the pursuit!" The fat man looked forward, narrowed his eyes into a line, and stopped his horse. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on him, and the mountain wind mixed with the smell of blood made the cloaks dance. Hundreds of imperial guards Guarding the emperor, teams of empires The cavalry crossed this mountainous area like a line. The black armor looked even more ferocious under the red sunset. The ground under the horses' hooves had been completely dyed red with human blood. The battlefield was littered with corpses, and the proud military flag of the Long family Being trampled messily in the red soil,

"Your Majesty, the strength of the Long family is greatly reduced now. If our army attacks with all its strength, it will surely rush into the southwest!" Ruitang Tingna stopped her horse next to the fat man. The tragic scene in front of her not only did not make her feel timid, but her eyes It's so bright that it scares people. This battle, It can be said that the grievances that the Dongting tribe had been squeezing for most of the past six months were released. Although I don’t know how good their military achievements were, it can be seen from the bloody ears slung around the waists of the Dongting cavalry that they gained a lot and silenced the whole country. After half a year, Dongting Department finally regained its vitality.

"The Song Clan has defeated Lichang, and they should be heading south to attack Guanglin in the next few days!" The fat man shook his head and said coldly, "The Long family has already suffered a huge loss in strength after this battle. Whether they can stop the Song Clan or not is still a matter of course. Two different things. Even if the Song people can be driven out of the southwest in the end, the southwest will probably be destroyed. We don't need to push the Long family too hard at this moment. The dog will jump over the wall when it is anxious. Besides, the head of the Long family, Long Po, still holds the Three to four hundred thousand troops! "

"What does your majesty mean?" Ruitang Tingna hesitated for a moment. "Long Po is not Long Yang. Southwest is already in danger. Long Po must return to the army with all his strength." The fat man withdrew his gaze from a distance and continued. Southwest will let the Song clan and Long The family is ready to fight. Compared with the mess of the southwest that is about to be fought on all fronts, asking the Long family to use Daizhou as the price of a truce is more in line with the interests of the empire! "

"Yes, I understand!" Rui Tangtingna couldn't help but smile when she heard that the fat man's target was Daizhou.

The fat man is right. After all, the Long family is not complete enough to be beaten to death. Especially the head of the family, Long Po, has amazing combat power. He still has hundreds of thousands of Long family troops in Daizhou. If he wants to return to the southwest to aid, he must attack the empire. The edge of the control zone passes through, and with the lessons learned from the defeat of Kaishan, I believe that in Before reaching an agreement with the empire, Long Po would never take this risk. Without the empire's consent, Long Po could only watch the southwest base camp being attacked by the Song people. From this point of view, in fact, if the empire did not enter the southwest, it would He has firmly taken the lead in negotiating with the Long family.

The empire already has Northwest, Yanzhou, and Imperial Capital West Road. If Daizhou is acquired, it can form a strategic pattern that echoes Imperial Capital West Road. No matter north, south, east, or west, it is no longer a thin and narrow land, but has With the true depth of the grand strategy, this can be regarded as a leap forward for the empire's eastward advance. With these four regions relying on each other, even if the empire has completely established its footing in Central Asia, who would have dared to do so if they had not seen it with their own eyes? I believe that all this was accomplished in just two months.

The Battle of Kaishan was recorded in the history of the empire because of its brutality and huge impact. It can be regarded as a decisive link in the empire's eastward advance strategy in Central Asia. The Long family faced the empire with more than 100,000 troops, but the battle collapsed. , not only lost Kaishan, but also buried most of the entire Long family’s wealth in Kaishan.

A total of 15,000 to 15,000 Long family troops marched out of Guang Linchuan, but in the end, less than 30,000 people made it back to the southwest alive.

It can be calculated from this that, in addition to the 30,000 to 40,000 people who were lost in the battle at Lanzhi City, there should be nearly 90,000 of them lost in Kaishan. Although they are not all troops with excellent combat capabilities, the population of the Southwest is only two to three million. , the number of people who can be recruited is three to four hundred thousand, which is enough to reach the sky. Long Po, the head of the Long family, has already taken away one hundred thousand. , most of the rest were here, and they were almost wiped out in Kaishan because too many people died. Even many years later, caravans passing through Kaishan often found bones in the mud, scattered The armor fragments, even the rocks there, and the large pale red spots were regarded as traces of the great battle that year. 8
