Chapter 831 Gao Xianzhi, Desperate
"What a spectacle!"
Gao Xianzhi rode a war horse, facing the 300,000 Mongolian and Turkic allied forces, his heart was surging.
The 300,000 Mongolian and Turkic cavalry are all elite cavalry, and their average combat power is higher than that of King Guishuang's side.
Behind Gao Xianzhi, an army of 150,000 was in place, of which 100,000 were members of Shuangmihou, a member of the Yue clan.
Even though the troops in his hands were already half of the Mongolian and Turkic allied forces, Gao Xianzhi did not have 50% confidence.
None of the generals on the opposite side is a guy to mess with.
"The honor of the Guishuang Empire, in this battle, the trophies of the Mongols and Turks on the opposite side are all in our pocket!"
King Guishuang drew out his saber, and millions of soldiers of the Guishuang Empire slapped their shields and weapons. The sound of killing echoed in the valley in the middle reaches of Kabul, and the leaves were shaking.
As a powerful civilization, the Guishuang Empire also has a strong military force!
"kill!"
The army of the Guishuang Empire spread all over the valley to kill the Mongolian and Turkic coalition forces, like a black wave, hitting the Mongolian and Turkic coalition forces wave after wave!
The strength of the Guishuang Empire is too large. When an offensive is launched, it is difficult for the Guishuang King to adjust.
With the commander-in-chief ability of King Guishuang, he can only directly command 200,000 soldiers and horses at most, and only indirectly command other legions.
One hundred and fifty thousand soldiers and horses was Gao Xianzhi's limit.
Therefore, the monarchs of various civilizations will set up legions and appoint generals to command the legions.
The monarch is only deploying before the start of the war, and the battlefield is changing rapidly, and it is impossible for one person to take care of it.
King Guishuang's million-strong army was divided into five armies.
Gao Xianzhi and Shuang Mihou commanded 150,000 troops as the left army.
Marquis Gao Fu and Marquis Xiumi commanded 150,000 troops as the right army.
King Guishuang commanded 200,000 troops as the Chinese army.
Prince Taktu commanded 200,000 troops as a reserve army.
The Marquis of Xun Dun commanded 300,000 troops. As the second reserve army, he stayed in the camp and guarded the food road.
Although the left, middle, and right armies on the front have only 500,000 troops, they are relatively elite troops selected by King Guishuang.
At the same time, there is also the 200,000 second-line troops commanded by Prince Taktu, who can go into battle and decide the outcome when the battlefield is stalemate.
As for the 300,000 troops left behind in the camp, they are entirely the third-line troops composed of newly recruited soldiers. They basically don't have much combat power and lack special arms, so basically they can't participate in fierce battles. A relatively simple task, otherwise it will be defeated like a mountain.
The Mongolian and Turkic allied forces, with Subotai as the left army, commanded 70,000 cavalry, mainly Mongols with stronger combat effectiveness.
Jebe is the right army, commanding 80,000 cavalry, which is a mixed cavalry corps of Mongolian cavalry and Turkic cavalry.
The backbone is Wokuotai, Batu, and Yelu Dashi, who command a mixed infantry and crossbowman army composed of 100,000 Mongolians, Turks, Persians, and Turkmens.
Wang Baobao commanded 50,000 cavalry as the rear army.
The left army of the Guishuang Empire was dealing with the right army of the Mongolian and Turkic coalition forces, that is, the Jebe army.
150,000 Guishuang cavalry against 80,000 Mongolian and Turkic cavalry, in theory, Gao Xianzhi has the possibility of victory,
And not low.
As long as the left army wins, it will attack the opponent's central army to expand its advantage and win the decisive battle in one fell swoop.
It was precisely because of this possibility that Gao Xianzhi chose to come to the Guishuang Empire to assist the King of Guishuang in resisting the offensive of the Mongolian and Turkic allied forces.
If there is no winning rate, Gao Xianzhi will not choose to come to the Guishuang Empire alone.
But if there is even a slight chance of winning, Gao Xianzhi doesn't mind giving it a try and gaining military exploits.
"Shuang Mihou, you command your troops to attack the Mongols and Turks head-on. I led 50,000 cavalry to attack in a roundabout way. The Mongolian and Turkic coalition forces are not large enough, leaving a gap between the army formation and the foot of the mountain. It is completely possible to intersperse and attack its flanks in a roundabout way!"
Gao Xianzhi commanded the Zuo Army, and as the commander in chief, issued orders to Shuangmihou of the Guishuang Empire.
Shuang Mihou pulled out the golden knife inlaid with precious stones: "Don't worry."
Gao Xianzhi led 50,000 Guishuang cavalry to rush out of the left army, using the characteristics of marching, interspersed to attack Zhe's flank!
From a bird's-eye view, two dark legions are fighting. The size of the Guishuang Empire's army is twice the size of the Mongolian and Turkic coalition forces.
The Mongol and Turkic allied forces have 250,000 frontal troops, and only 50,000 reserve troops. The number of reserve troops is too small. If the frontal forces are defeated or their physical strength is exhausted, the number of reserve troops that can be used is very small, which may not be able to make up for losses. Or turn the tide.
The Guishuang Empire has 500,000 frontal troops, 200,000 reserve troops, and 300,000 rear camps.
"This time it was our army that won."
Okuotai climbed up and looked around, surrounded by important think tanks, Yelu Dashi, who was regarded by Okuotai as a close friend of life and death, and Yelu Chucai, the first civil servant left by Temujin to Okuotai.
"Batu is below to command the army. Mahmud's Gulam heavy cavalry is ready to attack at any time to destroy the enemy."
"On the opposite side, King Guishuang's millions of soldiers and horses came here with all their national strength. In my opinion, they are just a group of mobs, vulnerable to a single blow."
"Tamerlane held back the army of the Mughal Empire in India for us in the city of Delhi, so that we can attack the Guishuang Empire freely. We must not miss this opportunity."
No matter Wo Kuotai, Yelu Dashi or Yelu Chucai, they are full of confidence in this battle.
The Mongolian and Turkic coalition forces have experienced hundreds of battles and won many battles. The accumulated experience, morale, and equipment are not comparable to the Guishuang Empire.
Thanks to the efforts of the up-and-coming descendants of the gold family, such as Wokuotai and Tuolei, the Mongolian Empire has already shown a tendency to revive.
"Report, the right army of Jebe was flanked by the left army of the Guishuang Empire, and a cavalry attacked along the foot of the mountain in an attempt to encircle and wipe out the Jebe army!"
When Wo Kuotai was full of ambition, suddenly a Mongolian cavalry came to report.
At the beginning of the war, Gao Xianzhi took advantage of the contempt of the Mongol and Turkic cavalry to take advantage of the contempt of the Mongolian and Turkic cavalry.
The Mongol and Turkic coalition forces are relatively small, but they are proud. They may not have no chance of defeating the Mongolian and Turkic coalition forces.
As long as he finds the weakness of the opponent's coalition forces, then Gao Xianzhi can successfully win the battle.
In fact, Gao Xianzhi also gave it a go!
If he wins, he can become famous all over the world, and he can seek a title from thousands of miles away!
If they lost, it would be a big deal if they were shrouded in horse leather. Except for him, Gao Xianzhi, the other 50,000 people were not the troops of the Han Empire, and the Protectorate of the Western Regions did not seem to have suffered any losses on the surface.
Therefore, Gao Xianzhi led 50,000 cavalry to attack Zhebe's flank in a desperate attempt!
Zhebe's commander-in-chief was not as capable as he could be, and was suddenly flanked by Gao Xianzhi and Shuang Mihou. He couldn't control the army for a while and was on the defensive.
Seeing that the left army had a tendency to win against Jebe, King Guishuang couldn't help being overjoyed, and ordered the central and right troops to attack further, which tended to suppress the Mongolian and Turkic allied forces.
The armored cavalry of the Guishuang Empire launched an attack, and the horses rushed to the opposite Chinese army, trying to break through from the middle and ask for Wo Kuotai's head.
King Guishuang also knew that as long as Wokuotai was killed, the Mongolian and Turkic coalition forces would definitely withdraw because the dragons had no leader.
Even if there is still a Tuo Lei who can inherit Wo Kuotai's career, the Mongolian and Turkic forces will not be able to coordinate their internal interests for a while, and at least one or two years of peace can be obtained.
Under the command of the commander-in-chief, the armored cavalry of the Guishuang Empire fiercely attacked the backbone of the heavy infantry.
Batu, who came from the Golden Horde, commanded the heavy armored infantry, and made the ground a prison, guarding it to the death.
With the troops at a disadvantage, his task was to stabilize the central army and wait for Subotai and Jebe to make a breakthrough.
Because of Gao Xianzhi's brave attempt, Zhebie was at a disadvantage, while Subotai's cavalry stormed the 150,000 troops of Gao Fuhou and Xiumihou, and was on the offensive.
A cavalry general of Subotai's level is far from being able to resist Gaofuhou and Xiumihou.
Generals of the Ili Khanate, such as Meng Ge and Kublai Khan of the Tuo Lei faction, and Guo Kan, the Han siege general, stood on another hill on the battlefield, looking down at the entire battlefield indifferently, as if they were out of it.
Temujin, the eldest son Jochi, and the second son Chagatai were killed in battle, and the Mongol Empire split into the Central Asian faction with the third son Okudei, and the West Asian faction with the fourth son Tuo Lei.
The veterans and generals of the Mongolian Empire also took refuge in two factions.
At present, Okuotai became the second Khan of the Mongol Empire because of Temujin's designation, and Tuo Lei also supported Okuotai. The two are actually in a cooperative relationship.
They also had to cooperate.
In "The Lord", the powerful monarch is not just the two of them.
The Han Empire, Macedonia, Mughals in India, Rome, the United States, Tsarist Russia, France, Holy Roman Empire, Persia, Arabia, Ottoman Empire, etc., all have the ability to confront them.
The Guishuang Empire seems to have a large population, but in fact, it is not the top civilization, it can only be regarded as a second-rate civilization, otherwise it would not have fought back and forth with the Protectorate of the Western Regions.
The Protectorate of the Western Regions is only a part of the Han Empire.
However, although Okudei inherited Temujin's will and became the new Great Khan of the Mongol Empire, the elders and generals still tended to the Tuolei faction, because Tuolei had higher military talents.
Subotai and Jebe are currently living in the Ili Khanate, but they were only recruited by Wokuotai, so they led their troops to attack the Guishuang Empire.
These senior generals traveled between Wokuotai and Tuolei forces from time to time as needed, and continued to work for the Golden Family in an attempt to rebuild the glory of the Mongolian Empire.
Rebuilding the glory of the Mongol Empire is also a fatal temptation for the veterans and generals of the Mongol Empire.
After all, there is no civilization that does not want to stand out in "The Lord". Even the Goryeo Kingdom is still resisting the rule of the Han Empire.
When Wo Kuotai personally took action to sweep the Guishuang Empire, the sons of Tuo Lei, Meng Ge and Kublai Khan just stood by and watched.
The number of generals on this battlefield is already full, and the halos of the three armies have also been stacked. Meng Ge and Kublai Khan's military strength is not outstanding. Even if they do not take action, it will not have much impact on the Mongolian and Turkic coalition forces.
