Chapter 626 The Great War in West Asia
Most of the generals of Yi Conghu in Huangzhong were officers of the Han army, and most of the soldiers were Hu people. This is a common way of defending the frontier fortress in the Han Empire, which can greatly reduce the cost of defending the frontier fortress.
It is an extremely extravagant thing to dispatch troops and horses from the Central Plains to the frontier.
Regardless of the Western Regions Protectorate, Liangzhou, and Youzhou, there are a large number of servants, and most of the generals are airborne personnel of the Han Dynasty.
For the officers of the Han army in Huangzhong who followed Hu, the imperial court promised to let go of the rebellion and give them titles of marquis and generals based on their military exploits. This was quite a temptation.
If love is a last resort, no one is willing to betray the imperial court and live a life of constant fear.
For the Yicong Hu soldiers below, they could obtain three sources of income: farmland, imperial salaries, and plundering Qiang tribes who had betrayed the imperial court.
"So cruel..."
Li Wenhou saw the movement of his subordinates and knew that he could not control the situation.
As a general, Huang Zhongyi could not reverse Hu's bottom-level will.
"I can submit to the imperial court."
In the end, in order to avoid the rebellion of his subordinates, Li Wenhou chose to compromise with the Chang'an court.
Xie Ai made a lot of effort to subdue Huang Zhongyi Conghu in the name of the court.
Although Huang Zhongyi's loyalty to Conghu remains to be seen, the rebellion of the Qiang tribe is imminent, and Xie Ai has to use all his strength to suppress the Qiang tribe.
Lao Qin turned a blind eye to the barbarian tribes that caused trouble to other princes, but tried his best to suppress the barbarian tribes that appeared in his hinterland!
"The Qiang people's folk customs are probably more aggressive and good at fighting than the civilized people in Liangzhou. It may not be so easy to completely flatten them..."
Xie Ai temporarily subdued Huang Zhongyi from Hu, but was still worried.
In the majestic city of Xianyang, Jiujiu Laoqin was quite satisfied with Xie Ai's performance when he learned that Xie Ai had surrendered repeatedly to Huang Zhongyi from Hu.
It's just that Huangzhong Yiconghu has been repeated repeatedly, and it's not easy to be loyal. We must try to replace the Han army officer who is currently in command of Huangzhong Yiconghu, and reorganize Yiconghu, so that Huangzhong Yiconghu can guarantee his loyalty .
At present, in order to stabilize Huang Zhongyi from Hu, it is necessary to save Li Wenhou's life.
"The Qiang people... may indeed have a few decent heroes, but only a few decent heroes. The reason why the Qiang people are difficult to surrender is mostly because of the harsh terrain. If they were on the plains, I am afraid they have already been defeated by my cavalry. This time, with Huang Zhongyi leading the way from Hu, the terrain where the local Qiang tribes are located may no longer be difficult."
Lao Qin slightly assessed the risk of the Qiang rebellion, and believed that the rebellion of the Qiang tribe was far less troublesome than the troubles encountered by Mingguan and others.
"My lord, Hussar General Mingguan sent an envoy to ask our army for help."
Li Si respectfully bowed to Lao Qin.
"Could it be that Mingguan is no longer able to withstand the attacks from Jin and Liao? However, the situation in Mingguan is indeed more complicated than that in Liangzhou."
The old Qin ordered Li Si to bring the envoys from Mingguan.
A military general strode in: "Hussar General Zhu Wenzheng, pay homage to Lord Sikong!"
"General Hussars cleared the pass,
Can Liaodong be held? "
"Our general swept Heishui, but it was a pity that the mountain was blocked by heavy snow, and Wanyan Aguda's cavalry appeared and disappeared. It was difficult to wipe out all of them for a while. The Liao army attacked fiercely, and the servants of the various countries lacked loyalty and failed to cooperate. Therefore, I would like to borrow elite soldiers from Lord Sikong 50,000, one commander, commanding the entire army."
Zhu Wenzheng explained his intention in time.
"Mingguan also has many commanders under his command. Just send one person to deal with the Liao Kingdom. There is no need to borrow a commander from me."
"Our general needs enough commanders to deal with Wanyan Aguda. Moreover, even if there are commanders but no soldiers, it is difficult to check and balance the armies of the various countries and guarantee their loyalty. That's why our general sent the last general to borrow troops and generals from Lord Sikong. .”
"Mingguan has a good plan. My army lost a lot during the expedition to the Western Regions. If I borrow 50,000 troops and a commander from the Liaodong Army, what benefits can Mingguan give me?"
"General Hussars has something to say, if Lord Sikong helps Liaodong survive this calamity, then the Liaodong Army will be sent by Lord Sikong in the future."
"Mingguan's promise is like a castle in the air...but I will still send soldiers and horses to help. As a price, Liaodong needs to provide the soldiers and horses with military salaries, food, teleportation array expenses, and pensions."
"Naturally."
Zhu Wenzheng came to lobby Lao Qin under the order of Mingguan. He originally thought that Lao Qin would sit on the ground and raise the price, and was unwilling to borrow troops easily. Unexpectedly, Lao Qin would readily lend a commander and 50,000 Guan Zhongjun to Mingguan.
Zhu Wen was completing the task so smoothly, but he was a little unconfident.
"In three days, 50,000 troops will go to Liaodong City one after another. There is no delay."
Lao Qin seems to be more concerned about Mingguan.
Because Lao Qin knew that if the power of Mingguan perishes, he will be unable to support himself alone, and both sides will be dead and teeth will be cold.
Moreover, the loss of Mingguan cannot be too heavy.
Several princes are secretly calculating.
When Temujin's threat was not so great, the contradictions among the several princes gradually emerged, and they had to plan for the end of the national war.
"The situation in Liaodong is imminent. I will go back and report to my lord right now. Thank you, Lord Sikong!"
Zhu Wenzheng did not stay, but immediately returned to Liaodong, which shows that the battle situation in Liaodong is critical.
Lao Qin also learned that Lu Xiangsheng and the Tianxiong army of Mingguan were killed by Xiao Chuo of Liao, and Liaodong was indeed very chaotic.
He recruited Li Si: "The population of Dunhuang County and Jiuquan County in Liangzhou is not large, so ignore it for the time being. He ordered the officials of Liangzhou counties to recruit soldiers and horses in Liangzhou, establish Liangzhou Army, and in Xihe area, establish Xihe Army (Bingzhou ), with the same status as the Guanzhong Army. Conquer the Qiang tribes and establish a Qiang servant army to serve me."
Li Si knew that Lao Qin started to expand his army, maybe not only to help Mingguan.
"The Tuoba Xianbei tribe in the Xihe area requested attachment, how should the lord deal with it?"
"Let them move to Hetao—Shuofang County, Yunzhong County, Dingxiang County, Yanmen County and other places controlled by Chu Zimou, and cause some troubles for Chu Zimou. If they have a tendency to become bigger, Together with Chu Zimou, we will destroy them."
Lao Qin is ready for both hands.
...
When the expeditionary force of the Han Empire had to retreat to the pass due to supply problems, Central Asia and West Asia became the battlefields of the Ilkhanate, Khwarazm, Seljuks and the Persian Empire, Arab Empire, and Guishuang Empire.
The Guishuang Empire annexed Dawan Kingdom and bordered Khwarazmo, so it had to intervene in the Central Asian battlefield.
The annexation of the Dawan Kingdom requires a price.
Wo Kuotai, Yelu Dashi and others noticed the fat of the Guishuang Empire.
In the south of the Guishuang Empire, the Mughal Empire of India, the Imperial Army and the Maratha Alliance (Maratha) raised troops and horses, and finally officially fought on the Deccan Plateau. The battle was fierce.
The lord of the Mughal Empire in India appeared on the ranking list. This civilized area with a population comparable to that of the Eastern Han Dynasty had huge potential for war, and the speed of reaching the rankings was extremely fast.
In the Ilkhanate, the Persian-Arab coalition forces advanced. The Arab coalition forces only sent 30,000 people, and the main force was still the Persian army.
Holy Meteor Cavalry, Undead Army, Parthian Heavy Cavalry and other units lined up on the plain to confront the Thunder Cavalry who left the city.
"The Mongols finally dared to go out to fight in the city. They had been hiding behind a solid city before, which really didn't fit their character."
Ardashir has a team of Holy Meteor Cavalry under his tent, which is his ace troop.
He had been waiting for Tuo Lei to go out of the city to fight him. However, when Tuo Lei's cavalry actually left the city, Ardashir fell into hesitation again, suspecting that Tuo Lei had other plans.
The battle flags were flying, and the two sides fought a decisive battle along the Hari River in West Asia.
"A group of cavalry gathered in Kandahar a few days ago and disappeared without a trace. The scouts worked desperately to bring back this news from the closed city!"
When the cavalry of the two sides confronted each other, Ardashir, the coach of the Persian-Arab coalition, learned of a piece of news that was not good for the coalition.
A few days ago a cavalry regiment assembled in the large city of Kandahar. As one of the large cities of the Ilkhanate, Kandahar has a teleportation formation, and this Mongolian cavalry may come from any city!
And after this cavalry disappears, the target is likely to be directed at the Persian-Arab coalition forces!
"map……"
Ardashir took a parchment map, and with the mobility of the cavalry, the disappearing Mongolian cavalry was enough to reach the Khali River from Kandahar.
"not good!"
Ardashir found that his 200,000 coalition army might be flanked by tow mines and unknown Mongolian cavalry.
After the Mongol Empire destroyed the Seljuk Empire, it aimed its soldiers at the Persian Empire!
The Han Empire is not yet ready for an expedition to Mobei, the Mongol Empire can concentrate its main force this time and severely damage the Persian Empire!
Tuo Lei's cavalry on the opposite side stared at them. Even if they wanted to withdraw their troops, Tuo Lei would not let them go easily.
This time, the Allied Forces in West Asia are in trouble.
Meng Ge and Kublai Khan on the opposite side were like hunters seeing their prey.
Tuo Lei squinted his eyes: "The 200,000 Persian and Arab empire troops will be trampled by our iron hooves."
Kublai Khan said: "All the empires have heard that the Great Khan returned to Mobei. Who knew that the Great Khan came to this battlefield in person and still destroyed the Persian Empire according to the plan."
Outside the battlefield where the two sides were confronting each other, a luxurious cavalry lineup composed of Temujin, the Four Great Qixue, the Four Mastiffs, Timur, Meng Ge, and Xu Liegu galloped forward, tens of thousands of horses galloping forward!
In this cavalry, the number of heroes with the halo of the whole army has exceeded the upper limit of three halos of the whole army on the battlefield!
Temujin did not return to Mobei, this time, he aimed his troops at the coalition forces of the Persian-Arab Empire!
The 200,000 Persian-Arab Empire coalition forces panicked.
Even the Persian Empire has a group of famous generals, with ninth-level holy meteor cavalry, but facing Temujin's epic lineup, they are still trembling!
If you retreat, you will only die worse!
Ardashir knew that Temujin was terrifying, but he also had the characteristics of a monarch, and he could barely withstand the negative effects brought about by Temujin's "Genghis Khan" characteristic!
"kill!"
Ardashir can only lead the Persian-Arab coalition forces to fight Touli and Temujin head-on!
The Persian army and the Ilkhanate were at odds with each other. The battle between the two sides was dark and dark, and the blood stained the Khali River red!
Temujin's Kexue army fought against Ardashir's holy cavalry, and the generals of the Persian Empire fought with the generals of the Mongol Empire!
The battle between the East Asian armed cavalry and the West Asian armed cavalry, the armored armor collided with each other, making harsh noises!
The Holy Meteor cavalry has the will to fight to the death, and they will attack the cowardly army one after another, and they will not stop until they die in battle!
Even the cowardly Xue army is suffering losses in the face of this group of crazy cavalry!
As the top characteristic unit of the Persian Empire, the Holy Meteor Cavalry is strong enough to counter the Qixue Army!
The heavy infantry of the undead army formed an iron wall to block the wave-like charge of the Mongolian cavalry!
"Defeat and conquer Persia!"
Tuo Lei and Kublai Khan drew out their sabers, led the army of the Ili Khanate, and Temujin to attack the Persian-Arab coalition forces!
"The east corner of the lost, the mulberry elm harvested!"
The anger of Temujin, Subotai and others erupted at this time. Since they could not get benefits from the Han Empire, they could only choose to occupy the territory of the Persian Empire to make up for the losses of the Ogodei Khanate and the Chagatai Khanate !
The Persian army was attacked by Siqixue and Simao, and it was extremely difficult to deal with it.
Among the four cowards, those who are good at fighting are Timur and Mu Huali. Mu Huali found that Timur's cavalry was not inferior to him.
Among the four mastiffs, Subotai is the king of field battles, and Jebe is the magic arrow (injured state), leading the cavalry to attack in a roundabout way, causing the Persian army to be defeated!
"Meng Ge, you lead 20,000 cavalry to contain the Arab Legion!"
Temujin sent Mongke to deal with the 30,000-strong Arab Empire Legion. With Mongke's cavalry, 20,000 can contain 30,000, which is not a problem.
The Persian army of 200,000 soldiers and horses is the main force. As long as Persia is defeated, the 30,000 Arab Empire army will soon be defeated.
At this moment, the 30,000 Arab army, which had never been very eye-catching, suddenly turned on the fanaticism, and took the initiative to attack Meng Ge's 20,000 Persian servant cavalry!
Meng Ge was caught off guard, but this army of soldiers from the Arab Empire was extremely brave in combat, and the characteristic bonus of its leader combined with the civilizational characteristics of the Arab Empire, resulting in a powerful combat force.
Thirty thousand soldiers of the Arab Empire defeated Meng Ge's 20,000 cavalry!
The small number of soldiers of the Arab Empire suddenly broke out, which was beyond everyone's expectations!
The lord of the Arab Empire was riding on a camel: "Don't underestimate our empire, this time the commander of the 30,000-strong army is the 'Sword of Allah' Khalid!"
