Chapter 1181 The Uzbek Man
Shi Wansui commanded 10,000 cavalry and defeated the surrounding Indian princes. The remaining princes retreated one after another under Timur's order.
This battle had twists and turns. Li Mu, Lian Po, and Lun Qinling, who were organizing a retreat, saw the Mobei Army coming to help, and turned back to counterattack, forcing Timur's army to retreat!
Timur's face was not very good-looking. The Mobei Army crossed the Red Desert and joined the Monan Army and the Tibetan Army that were marching along the edge of the Tianshan Mountains and the Pamir Plateau. Their military strength reached 400,000.
Timur's million-strong army suffered 200,000 to 300,000 casualties in the two-day battle.
Even though the losses were basically the soldiers and horses of the Indian princes, the morale of Timur's army also declined due to changes in offense and defense.
After Shi Wansui's cavalry arrived, Han Qinhu and He Ruobi's cavalry also arrived one after another. Timur mobilized an army of 300,000 to resist the Mobei Army and fight the three generals of the Sui Dynasty.
Timur's huge army was attacked from three sides, its morale dropped even faster, and it had to retreat dozens of miles.
Li Mu and Lian Po successfully joined the three generals of the Sui Dynasty.
"Fortunately, we arrived in time, otherwise we would have been almost delayed."
Xu Shu appeared riding a war horse.
He promptly invited the Mobei Army to march eastward and join the Monan Army, which relieved the Monan Army's crisis facing Timur.
"This battle is too brutal..."
Prince Yan took Di Qing and Fan Zhongyan to the Pamir battlefield and found that the ground was full of smoke, the earth barriers collapsed, and the wooden fence turned into black charcoal. The total casualties on both sides exceeded 300,000, which was tragic.
In contrast, the Mobei Army's progress can be described as smooth.
"Request to join forces with Huo An, who is attacking Dawan. If he captures Dawan, then come join us and capture Samarkand."
Li Mu originally wanted to retreat, but after receiving reinforcements, he summoned the army from the Western Region Protectorate and planned to join forces to capture Samarkand, the royal city of Khwarezm.
Samarkand is an extremely important city in the Transoxiana region. Timur's army was gathered here. Therefore, Li Mu called on as many troops as possible to capture Khwarezm and control the entire Transoxiana region.
"I don't know if the army of the Western Region Protectorate has captured Dayuan Kingdom."
The battle in the western part of the Pamir Plateau was littered with corpses, and on the battlefield of the Dawan Kingdom, the poor Dawan Kingdom was once again affected by the flames of war. It is impossible to count how many times the Dawan Kingdom has faced disaster.
Huo An, the Great Protector of the Western Regions, and Uzbek Khan Shaibani fought in the Dayuan Kingdom.
Huo An successively captured seven cities of the Dawan Kingdom, and Shaibani recaptured three more, and looted them with his troops. Two hundred thousand civilians of the Dawan Kingdom were killed, more than the number of Dawan servants who died directly on the battlefield.
Unlike the legions of the Great Xia Dynasty, the grassland heroes did not pay much attention to rules.
The prairie believes in the law of the jungle.
Chu Tian conquered all the tribes and became the Great Chanyu, and not many nomadic tribes dared to raise any objections.
Shaybani relied on looting to maintain the morale of his army.
Shaibani, the Uzbek Khan, a fierce man in the Transoxiana region, claimed to be a descendant of the Jochi branch of the Golden Family. He defeated Babur, the descendant of Timur, destroyed the Timur Empire, and opposed the King of Kings of Persia. Later, Defeated and ultimately killed by the King of Kings.
Shaibani once dominated the Transoxiana region;
He is also a reckless hero.
Huo An faced Shaibani who was recruited by Ogedai.
Shaibani's fighting style is brave and he is known for his bravery and proficiency in battle. He has Uzbek heavy cavalry unique to the Hezhong area under his command.
The Central Asian battlefield was like a duck to water for the heroes born in the transoxian regions such as Sulu, Shaybani, and Tamerlane.
Huo An suffered a lot under the attack of the mad dog-like Shaibani.
"..."
Huo An counted the losses and was a little depressed. The Western Region Protectorate had 400,000 soldiers and horses, of which 200,000 were guarding Yili and Luntai. Huo An led 200,000 soldiers and horses to invade the Dayuan Kingdom.
In a recent battle, Huo An had advanced to Guishan City, the royal city of Dayuan Kingdom. The imperial general Shaibani asked his lieutenant to fight Huo An, and then personally led the Uzbek heavy cavalry down the mountain. The pigs advanced suddenly, causing casualties to the Western Region Protectorate army. Twenty thousand people were forced to give up their plan to attack Guishan City and retreated to a nearby small town to rest.
Huo An once ruled the Dawan Kingdom twice and still had some prestige in the Dawan Kingdom.
Although King Meicai of the Dayuan Kingdom who was supported by Huo An was killed, a group of Dayuan nobles heard about Huo An's arrival and took refuge in Huo An's account one after another to serve Huo An.
"Please, Lord Protector, defeat Shaibani as soon as possible. If Shaibani is allowed to rule Dawan again, I am afraid that the population of Dawan will be less than one million."
"We are counting on the Great Protector for everything!"
A group of Dawan nobles who had taken refuge in the Western Region Protectorate complained to Huo An about Shaibani's rule of Dawan, hoping that the war in Dawan could end as soon as possible.
The population of Dawan has dropped from three million in the first year of the lord's reign to only over one million now, and most people have been affected by the war and died.
"Xibani is a brave general, not just a reckless general. His cavalry is not low in combat effectiveness. It would be great if Huo Qubing is there to compete with him."
Huo An's first general, Huo Qubing, was forced to leave by Chu Tian, and was beaten up by the Uzbek hunk Shaibani in Dayuan, which made him a little depressed.
A Dawan noble said: "Xibani is indeed fierce. We in Dawan had an uprising in recent years. He defeated tens of thousands of people with thousands of cavalry and killed them all.
Huo An looked at Pang Tong, who was temporarily serving as the military advisor of the Western Region Protectorate. This was the counselor he asked Chu Tian for.
So far, there is no pure counselor in the Western Region Protectorate.
Pang Tong is known as Feng Chu. Although he looks a bit strange, Huo An doesn't care.
"Military advisor, Shaibani is like a mad dog. If you are not careful, you will be defeated. What should you do?"
Pang Tong pondered for a long time. He also participated in the recent battle of Guishan City. He saw Shaibani's military use in his eyes: "Shaibani's troops are brave and reckless. They can lure the army Shaibani to attack and then defeat them."
"A plan to lure the enemy?"
Huo An thought for a moment. To deal with such fierce generals, the strategy of luring the enemy is often tried and tested: "But to lure the enemy, it is best to find a suitable terrain."
A group of military generals from the Western Region Protectorate tried hard to find a piece of terrain on the map of Dawan for a decisive battle with Shaibani.
"Behind the mountains here, there is a plain behind the mountains. Shaibani can be lured here and defeated in one battle."
Pang Tong finally found a fair piece of flat land.
Huo An looked at the generals: "Which of you can go ahead and lure Shaibani to attack?"
Chen Tang, the general of the Western Region Protectorate, said: "The last general invites you to fight!"
"Can."
Huo An knew that Chen Tang had characteristics similar to "Long Drive" and was considered a half-marching general, so he asked Chen Tang to lure the enemy so that he would not be overtaken by Shaibani in advance.
"Withdraw from this city tomorrow and make a move to withdraw troops."
Hoan completed his deployment against the Uzbek Khan.
