Chapter 257 The strong enemy from the north(1/2)

"Damn it, why does she have so many troops!"

The lord of Jizhou, Zhao Long, and the fierce general Shi Wansui were surrounded by tens of thousands of soldiers. The troops that besieged them included African tribal warriors, Seljuk Turk cavalry, and Mamluk cavalry.

Shi Wansui didn't understand why these armies from different civilizations suddenly attacked him, but he was almost certain that there must be someone commanding these armies behind the scenes.

He saw a dozen cavalrymen standing on the high ground, who were observing the entire battlefield.

In an instant, Zhao Long realized that he had only one way to win.

Zhao Long personally maintained the formation: "Long live Shi, lead a hundred cavalry and kill the enemy's commander on the hillside for me!"

"Listen and obey your orders!"

Shi Wansui held a longbow in his hand and drove with hundreds of cavalry, heading straight for the opponent's commander!

"Will this legion from the Eastern Han Dynasty be the number one legion in the world? But the number one legion in the world should not be easily defeated by me."

Catherine was riding a war horse and noticed that the Eastern Han army was divided into a hundred troops to kill her, so she ordered someone to blow the horn.

Thousands of Cossack cavalry appeared from behind the hillside, and in the front row were the Boye noble cavalry wearing armor and hanging Turkish scimitars. The cavalry all over the mountains and plains turned from trotting to charging!

The Boye cavalry pulled out their Turkish scimitars and slashed at Shi Banzai!

This is a trap!

It is not easy for Shi Wansui to attack the high ground and win among the dense and elite cavalry of the Grand Duchy of Moscow!

The cavalry all over the mountains and plains were charging towards Shi Wansui! Shi Wansui charged at the rebel army and killed dozens of people in a row. He was extremely brave. However, the small number of cavalry around Shi Wansui was overwhelmed by the opponent's elite cavalry.

"The enemy is too cunning, go immediately to rescue Shi Wansui and retreat!"

Zhao Long knew that Shi Wansui could not complete the beheading operation when the opponent was already prepared. Continuing to let Shi Wansui take risks would only cost Shi Wansui's life in vain.

As soon as Zhao Long retreated, tens of thousands of coalition troops came forward to besiege him, and Zhao Long was defeated.

Zhao Long, whose strong man had broken his arm, gave up his infantry and archers and led his cavalry to leave. He had to keep two to three thousand cavalry before he had a chance to make a comeback.

Zhao Long's heart was bleeding. In one battle, thousands of elites were killed or captured!

He still doesn't know who defeated him.



"Surrender without killing!"

Chu Tian rode a war horse to persuade him to surrender, trying to use the characteristics of the "Khan of Heaven" to surrender the fourth servant army - the spearmen from Spain.

The Spanish spear phalanx can effectively resist cavalry attacks, but in front of Chutian's Shesheng battalion, the Spanish phalanx lacking high-level crossbowmen and matchlock gunners is a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

Round after round of arrows hit the Spanish phalanx. Hundreds of Spanish phalanx were killed, and the remaining people surrendered. As for their lords and knights, they had abandoned this group of Spanish phalanxes.

"Korea's military squad, Mughal Empire's Rajput cavalry, Arab Empire's camel cavalry, Spanish pikemen..."

Chu Tian carefully counted the number of servants who had reached 10,000 people.

After drawing the Spanish legions out of the city and annihilating them, Chu Tian led his troops to besiege the city.

He wanted to capture the second city. This city was occupied by the Spanish lords.

However, the Spanish lord fell into a trap and was defeated. He abandoned the phalanx of spears and fled back to the city with his knights, cavalry and grooms, greatly weakened.

When Chu Tian led the Xuzhou Army and the Servant Army, a total of 20,000 people, the main force appeared outside the small city, the Spanish lord felt suffocated.

The lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty were so powerful that he despaired.

What made him even more desperate was that Chu Tian held the Five Nations Allied Forces, and the Spanish spearmen who were his subordinates not long ago actually rebelled and became Chu Tian's subordinates!

"Is this still a human being... God, what kind of opponent have you arranged for me..."

The Spanish lords could only hope that the main force of less than 5,000 men and 10,000 low-level soldiers could defend this relatively strong city.

Chu Tian ordered military craftsmen to build siege equipment under the city and prepare for a strong attack.

Chu Tian had already used tactics to consume a number of the Spanish lord's troops. The Spanish lord was frightened and could not leave the city gates. Chu Tian only had the option of attacking by force.

With Leyi and Li Guang here, Chutian doesn't have to worry too much about attacking the city.

Li Guang led the Shesheng Battalion to suppress the archers on the city wall, and then Le Yi organized infantry and siege equipment to seize the city. The two sides cooperated with each other. Unless they encountered a specialized defender or a specialized fortress, the opponent would not be able to defend it at all.

.

"Lord, there is a cavalry approaching from the north!"

When Chu Tian was about to attack the city, Hua Mulan promptly informed Chu Tian of an important piece of information.

"Why is there another group of cavalry? Order Xue Rengui's cavalry to be on guard."

The last time Chu Tian planned to annihilate the Korean lord Li Minzhe, he was frightened back by a group of Japanese cavalry, but he never expected that another group of cavalry would come at this time.

Since he encountered so many enemies, Chu Tian thought they were probably enemies this time.

Zhao Long led two to three thousand Jizhou cavalry south. He and Shi Wansui escaped Yekaterina's pursuit. The Cossack cavalry had strong maneuverability and tried to catch up with Zhao Long and Shi Wansui.

Fortunately, Zhao Long and Shi Wansui's cavalry were not weak, so they were not captured or killed by Yekaterina on the way.

"Report, traces of unknown scouts found ahead!"

"Go and make contact immediately to see if you are an enemy or a friend!"

After a while, the scout cavalry turned back: "This is our Eastern Han Dynasty's dragon flag!"

"Finally we found a lord from our Eastern Han Dynasty. I will take revenge on that woman this time!"

When Zhao Long fled, he probably guessed who the lord who owned the Cossack cavalry was.

There were many lords with Cossack cavalry, but the only lord with the ability to annihilate the top ten Zhao Long's seven or eight thousand elites in the Eastern Han Dynasty was the current number one Ekaterina.

There are only a handful of female lords in the world. Those who can become female lords must have great military exploits!

Zhao Long only had two or three thousand cavalry in his hands, and it was difficult for him to avenge Yekaterina by himself, so he couldn't help but be overjoyed when he learned that there was an Eastern Han lord nearby.

According to the agreement between the lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty, they could trust each other unconditionally during the national war.

Zhao Long led the remaining soldiers to approach Chu Tian's camp.

Chu Tian thought he was an enemy, so he ordered Le Yi to prepare for war.

Until Zhao Long's Jizhou Army met the Xuzhou Army, Chutian discovered that the visitor turned out to be Zhao Long, the lord of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the prefect of Wei County in Jizhou. Zhao Long still supported Yuan Shao to become the Yiren lord of Jizhou Mu, and is now serving as the prefect under Yuan Shao.

Zhao Long also had Shi Wansui, a Sui Dynasty military general who impressed Chu Tian, ​​a powerful general at the level of the Five Tiger Generals.

Chu Tian had met this man many times. He was not a stranger at all, but quite familiar with him. Both sides participated in the battle to capture Hulao Pass.

It's just that Zhao Long and his general Shi Wansui both looked a little miserable, like bloody people fished out of a blood pool.

All this shows that they have experienced a fierce battle and are likely to suffer a disastrous defeat - judging from the fact that he only brought so few cavalry with him.

"It was really unlucky. I met Ekaterina, the lord of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, and was severely punished by her. If it was just her cavalry, that would be it. My Shi Wansui might not be able to do anything if the troops are equal.

I am afraid of her Cossack cavalry. But she can command a group of servants and use them to consume my troops. You should know that the people who are confident in participating in the national war this time are the great lords of various civilizations, and they are carrying the most elite of their respective forces.

The army. Catherine can command a large number of servants... It is almost impossible for me to defeat so many elite troops by myself."

After Zhao Long saw Chu Zimou, the number one lord in his civilized area, he immediately felt at ease.

For some reason, Zhao Long felt inexplicably relieved. No matter how powerful Yekaterina was, she was not the number one in the world. The number one lord in the world was Chu Zimou, who had a large population.

"Ekaterina..."

Chutian had heard of the reputation of this hairy female lord more than once recently. She had always been ranked first in the national war rankings.

According to Zhao Long's description, Yekaterina also has the ability to command her servant army to fight for herself, which is somewhat similar to Chutian's "Heavenly Khan".

This is a powerful enemy that appears in the north. If you are not careful, Chutian may be defeated by her.

"What kind of civilized armies does her current servant army include?"

"There are approximately 20,000 African tribal warriors, Seljuk Turk cavalry, and Mamluk cavalry. In addition, there are also cavalry brought by herself."

Chu Tian found that he had more types of servants, but the number of captives was not as high as that of Ekaterina. In every battle, Ekaterina almost captured all of her opponents.

"Are you confident that you can defeat her? I have a long life and can help you."

"To be honest, I don't really want to confront her..."

Chu Tian had no enmity with her, and the two were evenly matched. If Chu Tian insisted on conquering Yekaterina, both of them would suffer heavy losses, while other lords would benefit. Moreover, Chu Tian had a bad premonition.

If you want to defeat an evenly matched lord, it would be bad if one of your own generals dies in battle.

"If you don't provoke her, she will definitely attack you. She is like a war eagle on the grassland. No one can stop her."

"My goal is to capture this city. Only by capturing this city and obtaining supplies can we defeat her more easily."

Chu Tian still did not go north immediately. The city in front of him was crumbling. Chu Tian planned to capture the second city first and then make plans.

"Can."

Zhao Long did not ask Chu Tian to avenge him.

Chu Tian had no obligation to act according to his request, so he was grateful enough to take him in at this time.

"Yuanhua, you heal their wounds."

Chu Tian saw that Zhao Long and Shi Wansui were injured. Out of his obligation as an ally, Chu Tian ordered Hua Tuo to come to Zhao Long and Shi Wansui to stop their injuries.
