Chapter 583: Luntai City's Reinforcements

"kill!!"

The Mongolian army on the outskirts of Luntai City was attacked by a 30,000 Han cavalry, and the shouts of killing alarmed the defenders in the city!

The defenders of Luntai City boarded the city wall one after another, looking at the Mongolian army besieging Luntai, trying to find out what happened.

"Reinforcements, our reinforcements have arrived!"

Suddenly, cheers broke out among the defenders of Luntai City, and the morale of all the defenders was boosted by the appearance of reinforcements outside the city!

In addition to characteristics, specific events on the battlefield will also affect morale ups and downs, such as the death of the main general and the arrival of reinforcements!

"Gao Xianzhi, follow me out of the city!"

Huo An could already see the war eagle of the Iron Eagle Scout, and the battle flag of the Western Region Protectorate General Gan Yanshou holding the Western Region Protectorate!

There are at least 20,000 to 30,000 cavalry in this coming cavalry!

The Mongolian army's Tan Machi discovered this cavalry ahead of time, and the besieged Wokuotai and Yelu Dashi immediately dispatched troops to besiege!

The main force of Temujin's cavalry went to Kucha for supplies, leaving Mu Huali to join Okuotai and Yelu Dashi. At this time, only the cavalry of Wokuotai, Yelu Dashi, and Mu Huali besieged Luntai City, and the defense force was relatively weak.

Yelu Dashi personally led a team of cavalry to intercept and kill Xu Fengnian's cavalry. The two sides fought fiercely under Luntai City. The battle resulted in the death of more and more cavalry!

Han general Gan Yanshou's original wound burst due to the fierce battle and was injured again, but he slashed the ring head knife, slashed and killed several enemy cavalry one after another, and tried to break through the blockade of Yelu Dashi and enter the city!

Yelu Dashi's Central Asian cavalry is more terrifying. They used Turkic bows to shoot, and Gan Yanshou was hit by two arrows!

The gate of Luntai City was opened, and Huo An and Gao Xianzhi went out to support Gan Yanshou and Xu Fengnian, while Wo Kuotai ordered two ten thousand captains to come to besiege, and tens of thousands of cavalry fought in melee!

"The last general fulfills his mission!"

Gan Yanshou saw Huo An coming out of the city to meet him, and knew that Huo An was fine for the time being, and the reinforcements had arrived, Luntai City could probably be defended, so he shouted at Huo An!

"The reinforcements are finally here!"

Huo An and his subordinate Gao Xianzhi fought hard and successfully joined Xu Fengnian's reinforcements!

Huo An also knew this Chutian business partner in the previous epic battles and national wars. Although the two sides were not very familiar with each other, they were considered allies at this time!

"It's okay to defend Luntai City and hate Temujin and Okudei for such a long time."

After Xu Fengnian joined forces with Huo An, they retreated in the direction of Luntai City with great momentum. At the gate of the city, Huo An had already deployed a team of heavy infantry and crossbowmen to respond.

Yelu Dashi took down the strong crossbow from the saddle, pointed it at Gan Yanshou who was retreating, and pulled the crossbow trigger. The reaction force made Yelu Dashi's arm tremble slightly, and the crossbow arrow shot out through the air!

"Woo..."

Gan Yanshou had already reunited with Huo An, but was shot by Yelu Dashi when he was about to be safe. His eyes lost all energy, his pupils dilated, and he fell from his horse.

"Gan Yanshou!"

Huo An originally planned to reward this hero after he entered the city, but Gan Yanshou was the last to shoot and kill Yelu Dashi, a famous general of the Western Regions Protectorate, and died in battle.

Huo An's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at Yelu Dashi among a group of Khitan cavalry and Central Asian cavalry.

Yelu Dashi's eyes were stern, and Huo An was separated by three or four hundred meters. He was already out of the range of the crossbow arrows, and could only see a vague figure, but both sides felt that this was an enemy for life.

Gan Yanshou, the general of the Protectorate of the Western Regions, Mi Jian, the nobleman of Dawan Kingdom, and King Loulan all died under the attack of Yelu Dashi.

The strategy of the Protectorate of the Western Regions represented by Huo An was destroyed by Yelu Dashi. Yelu Dashi, who served the two Khanates of the Mongol Empire,

To become the most troublesome enemy of the Protectorate of the Western Regions, one has to be above Wokuotai and Chagatai.

"Go to town!"

Although his heart was bleeding, Huo An knew that he could not act on his will at this time, otherwise he would only disappoint Gan Yanshou's sacrifice.

Under Huo An's support, Xu Fengnian lost thousands of cavalry and finally entered Luntai City, increasing the defenders of Luntai City by more than 20,000 elite soldiers and more than ten historical generals!

Wo Kuotai also has a group of generals from the Khanate, but the pressure on Luntai City has undoubtedly decreased at this time!

After Yelu Dashi shot and killed Gan Yanshou, he was shown to the public to frighten the defenders of Luntai City.

"Gan Yanshou...! Yelu Dashi, I will kill him!"

Huo An hated Yelu Dashi even more.

Yelu Dashi even killed the generals of the Protectorate of the Western Regions, which made Huo An hate him so much.

Yelu Dashi became Huo An's unstoppable enemy!

"It's Xiangyang Cannon again..."

Xu Fengnian entered Luntai City and found that the city wall of Luntai City was devastated and many sections of the city wall were broken. Huo An ordered people to repair them and set up parapets or wooden fences, which prevented the Mongolian army from attacking the city wall.

As for the power of the Xiangyang cannon, Xu Fengnian personally experienced it. Yumen Pass was bombarded by the Xiangyang cannon and a section of the city wall collapsed.

The city wall of Luntai City may not be stronger than a special pass like Yumen Pass.

In other words, according to Xu Fengnian's estimate, part of the city walls of Luntai City probably won't last long, and they will collapse to the ground.

"It's better to try to go out of the city, burn the Xiangyang Cannon, and delay for a while."

To deal with Xiangyang artillery, Xu Fengnian considered going out of the city to attack.

"No, Yelu Dashi has set up traps such as trapping horses and rejecting horses outside the city. Once the Xiangyang artillery is attacked, the entire army will probably be wiped out."

Huo An shook his head.

Xu Fengnian looked at Wang Yanzhang, Ma Chao, and Hua Xiong and others sent to him by Chutian.

If these fierce generals are the vanguard, they may be able to burn Xiangyang Cannon smoothly, but under the siege of more than 100,000 Mongolian cavalry, especially Yelu Dashi also set traps such as crossbows and crossbows, even the five tiger generals will be consumed to death.

Large siege equipment may kill generals.

Unless Xu Fengnian wanted to sacrifice Wang Yanzhang, Ma Chao, Hua Xiong and others in exchange for the opportunity to burn Xiangyang Cannon.

Such a price is not worth it.

Outside the city, Wo Kuotai and Mu Huali stood on a high place, seeing that Yelu Dashi failed to kill Xu Fengnian, and Xu Fengnian's cavalry entered the city smoothly, they couldn't help being silent.

"Yelü Dashi's cavalry is already pretty good, but they still can't intercept this Han army cavalry, which shows how capable the Han army cavalry is."

"The princes of the Han army who are qualified to participate in the expeditionary army are not idle people."

"Strengthen the defense of the Xiangyang Cannon. If they go out of the city to attack the Xiangyang Cannon, ten thousand crossbows will be fired to kill them. The crossbows deployed next to the Xiangyang Cannon are enough to shoot and kill their generals. I ordered another twenty to be built. Xiangyang Pao, this time, will destroy Luntai City before the Han Empire's expeditionary force arrives."

Wo Kuotai waved his hand, and twenty large counterweight trebuchets joined the sequence of siege equipment, forming a larger siege battalion with the original Xiangyang artillery!

After Xu Fengnian entered Luntai City, Wo Kuotai's attack on Luntai City became more and more fierce. Xiangyang artillery roared, and boulders, fireballs, wolf smoke, and even corpses were thrown into the city by Xiangyang artillery!

"Damn it, the attack here is more terrifying than Yumen Pass..."

Xu Fengnian looked up at the sky, and the huge rocks and fireballs spinning at high speed fell down one after another, making the city walls tremble!

The number of Xiangyang artillery and siege equipment used by Wo Kuotai to attack Luntai City is more than the number of trebuchets used by the Mongolian army to attack Yumen Pass!

Yumen Pass is narrow, and there are not many troops to attack the pass at one time, which is also the advantage of Xiongguan.

However, the four walls of Luntai City are within the attack range of the Mongolian army. The Mongolian army can deploy more trebuchets, siege towers, and ladder vehicles to mobilize more troops to attack the city.

Holding on to Luntai City is more difficult than holding on to Yumen Pass, which is why Huo An needs a new force to help defend the city.

The Wokuotai Khanate army and servants all over the mountains and plains besieged Luntai City again, and the rain of arrows intertwined into a net and scattered, reaping the lives of the defenders!

"My son!"

Ma Teng found that Ma Chao was shot by an arrow and was injured in the battle!

Wang Yanzhang's iron spear swept across, blocking the rain of arrows for Ma Teng and Ma Chao!

The attack and defense of Luntai City was quite tragic, even more tragic than the Battle of Yumen Pass. Ma Chao, who assisted the Western Region Army in defending Luntai City, was shot and wounded by the dense arrow rain soon!

Thousands of arrows rained down, and anyone could be injured.

...

Kucha Kingdom is located to the west of Luntai Kingdom, where Temujin's cavalry temporarily rested and replenished.

Although Temujin lost successively in Cheshi Kingdom and Yanqi Kingdom, Temujin was still the biggest threat to the expeditionary force of the Han Empire.

A cavalry from Central Asia arrived in Kucha and joined Temujin.

"Father Khan."

Jaghatai meets his father, the conqueror of the world.

However, at this time, Temujin looked a little haggard, and Temujin's confidence was hit by successive defeats.

It wasn't until the arrival of Chagatai that Temujin regained his aura of a great conqueror.

Chagatai came to support the cavalry, mainly the Mongolian cavalry of the Chagatai Khanate, followed by the cavalry of the Seljuk Empire and Khwarazm.

"I have already learned the result of the battle in the Ili River Valley. You, Wo Kuotai and Yelu Dashi have done a good job. The blood of the Central Asian coalition forces has stained the Ili River Valley. The Seljuk Empire and Khwarazm must have surrendered."

"After the Sultan of Khwarazmo was beheaded by us, he has surrendered, but the Seljuk Empire is still calling for coalition forces, trying to regain the hegemony of Central Asia. Therefore, most of the servants brought by the boy are Khwarazm cavalry."

"Stupid Seljuks, they will realize how small their force is. When we annihilate this expeditionary force of the Han Empire, the next one to be wiped out is the Seljuk Empire, which will be razed to the ground."

When Temujin heard that after the defeat of the Seljuk Empire in the Ili Valley, its sultan dared to resist the rule of the Chagatai Khanate, so he snorted coldly.

As long as he can annihilate the expeditionary force of the Han Empire in Luntai City, and then conquer the Seljuk Empire, he can gather the forces of Central Asia, the Western Regions, and Mobei to launch an offensive against the Han Empire again.

"Perhaps the time for us to attack the Han Empire in an all-round way is not yet ripe, and we are too impatient."

Temujin said in a deep voice, "We should take the lead in conquering Central Asia and West Asia, obtain millions of servants, and then attack the Han Empire in an all-round way."

Chagatai said respectfully: "What Father Khan said is very true. The Han Empire is our most powerful enemy. The most powerful enemy should be saved until the end and then wiped out. On the contrary, conquer the Seljuk Empire, the Khwa Zimo Kingdom is simpler than we imagined."

Temujin got up: "But now all the troops are concentrated in Luntai City, we have no choice but to fight to the death with the expeditionary force of the Han Empire. If we win, we will gain the Western Regions, and even the fertile pastures in the pass. If If it fails, we must withdraw from the Western Regions and wait for an opportunity. Chagatai, this time we will rely on your strength."

"The child's cavalry, let the father Khan drive it."
