Chapter 892: Defeating Darius
"Online Game Lord of the People ()"
"The Undead Army of the First Persian Empire..."
Before the start of the war, Wu Qi heard from Chu Tian that if the opponent was a legion of Persian civilization, he needed to be extra careful about the two legions.
The most elite undead army of the First Persian Empire, and the most elite Holy Meteor Cavalry of the Second Persian Empire.
Since the opponent is Darius I, the legendary king of the First Persian Empire, Darius I can be forced to use the Guards, which is enough to see that Darius I has panicked.
He was afraid that Wu Qi would defeat the central army of the Persian Empire and kill him.
Although he is the NPC legendary king on the battlefield of the national war, Darius I also has some memories and personalities.
Ten thousand undead troops fought fiercely with Wei Wuzu, the sky was dark!
The undead army was cold, wearing bronze masks, holding spears, and brutally attacked Wei Wuzu.
The undead army in the rear held two knives and was proficient in melee combat. With one knife, he cut off the shoulder of Wei Wuzu!
Assisting the Undead Army were about 50,000 low-ranking Persian infantrymen who were driven by Emperor Darius to attack the Han army without fear of life and death.
In this national war, there is basically death but no life, bloody battle to the end!
The pressure Wu Qi encountered was even more tragic than the Battle of Mangshan and the Battle of Hedong within the Han Empire.
When attacking the Guanzhong army, Wu Qi was actually in a superior force and overwhelmed the Qin army.
At this time, Darius the Great had twice as many troops as Wu Qi, and he also joined the most elite guards of the First Persian Empire, causing Wu Qi to also fall into a bitter battle.
The monarch trait "King of Kings" is suppressing the morale of the Wei soldiers.
Wu Qi's characteristics make Wei Wuzu's morale not lower than 50.
The morale of Wei Wuzu remained between 50 and 70.
The morale of the undead army is stronger, and their emperor is watching their every move. They must win and prove to their majesty that the undead army can conquer everything.
"Immortal, conquer for me!"
Darius I temporarily relaxed because the undead army went into the war.
Under the command of Emperor Darius the Great, who is most suitable for this legion, the Undead Army has exploded with a combat power that is stronger than the lord of the Persian Empire in the main world.
The undead army in the hands of Darius I and the player Ardashir are two completely different legions.
"There are some legions that will fit their generals..."
Seeing the undead army blocking the advance of Wei Wuzu, Chu Tian fell into deep thought.
Yue Fei fits the Yue Family Army, Wu Qi fits the Wei Wuzu, Wang Jian fits the Qin Ruishi, and Chen Qingzhi fits the White Robe Army. When they command these legions, they are generally stronger than other generals.
The Undead Army was originally the exclusive arm of Darius I, so in the hands of Darius I, it was the pinnacle.
Jia Xu, who served as a military adviser, said: "My lord, if you want to win, you have to do whatever it takes. The more you fear, the heavier the loss will be."
"That makes sense, Geng Yan."
Chutian recruited Geng Yan, one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai.
Geng Yan is a general of the cavalry department and the siege department, which is quite practical.
"Geng Yan is here."
"You command 10,000 Youzhou Tuqi, and... 10,000 iron cavalry, a total of 20,000 iron cavalry, destroy the undead army... No, attack the right side of the Persian army!"
Chu Tian spared no expense this time.
The Iron Cavalry Army is composed of high-level cavalry such as the Qixue Army, the Zhongxiao Army, the Heli Army, the Huben Army, and the Knights of the Round Table. There are about 20,000 cavalry troops. Chutian directly divides the 10,000 cavalry army into Geng Yan, who will be in command .
There are still 10,000 cavalry troops left, and Chu Tian keeps them as a reserve team.
No matter when, Chutian always left something behind.
There were hundreds of cavalry ambushing on the periphery of the battlefield, and Zhan Ying couldn't tell whether it was ordinary cavalry or camel cavalry, so Chu Tian subconsciously defaulted to regular cavalry.
Except for the Western Regions, the other states and counties of the Han Empire hardly saw camels, let alone camel cavalry.
For all the lords of the Han Empire, the cavalry in their impression was the mighty cavalry regiment on the prairie, not the camel cavalry who haunted the wind and sand.
However, even Chutian and Hua Mulan,
Unexpectedly, it was not the prairie cavalry that was peeping at the battlefield, but the camel cavalry.
In order to deal with the undead army, 10,000 Youzhou cavalry and 10,000 iron cavalry galloped out and entered the battlefield!
Chu Tian did not send Geng Yan to attack the undead army head-on, but adopted Darius I's initial idea to attack the flank of the Persian army.
Chu Tian thought that Wu Qi could stop the undead army.
Chu Tian firmly believed in this point.
Wu Qi has 30,000 high-ranking infantry, but only 10,000 undead soldiers.
Even though the rank of the undead army is higher than that of the Wei soldiers and the silver guns, the Wei soldiers win in numbers.
Holding a long spear, Geng Yan, with Youzhou Tuqi as the main force, joined Hua Mulan and launched a counterattack against the Persian army!
Arrows from the Persian cavalry rained down like rain. Hua Mulan had already attacked the Persian cavalry three times. More than a hundred of the Persian cavalry were killed by Hua Mulan.
The legions of Darius I showed the terrible side of Persian civilization.
Ten thousand iron eagle scouts lost two thousand cavalry in the battle with the Persian cavalry.
The main general Hua Mulan was inevitably injured in the battle.
At this time, Geng Yan and Youzhou Tuqi, who had both morale and physical strength, joined the battle. Youzhou Tuqi launched a violent assault and defeated the Persian right army!
The Youzhou Tuqi held spears, and they did not compete with the Persian cavalry for riding and shooting. Instead, they took advantage of the frontal advantages of the heavy cavalry and broke through fiercely!
Geng Yan took out his gun and picked up a Persian general, Youzhou Tuqi trampled over the corpses of Persian infantry and cavalry archers!
The Persian cavalry archers could not withstand the impact of the Youzhou cavalry, and they were defeated one after another.
Darius I saw that the situation was not good, so he sent Persian heavy cavalry.
The Persian heavy cavalry in chain armor is also equipped with spears, fighting fiercely with Youzhou Tuqi!
Iron cavalry, the cavalry army composed of Qixue Army, Zhongxiao Army, and Huben Army joined the battle to destroy the Persian heavy cavalry!
Darius I, as the legendary king of the classical empire, did not absorb heavy cavalry from other civilizations, and he was still a little short of mastery of cavalry.
And Chutian, who has seen the cavalry of Mongolia, Xiongnu, Xianbei, Jurchen, etc., is good at cavalry!
The infantry battle between the Han army and the Persian army was extremely fierce, but the cavalry gradually gained the upper hand!
Xue Rengui held Fang Tian's painted halberd in one hand, cooperated with Liang Hongyu's Jianyan crossbowmen, and with the white robe army as the main force, forcibly opened the situation.
Xue Rengui fights a bloody road alone, and the white robe army only needs to follow behind Xue Rengui to tear the breakthrough!
Wu Qi attracted the main force of Darius I to attack, the left and right sides of the Persian army were defeated, and put pressure on the backbone of the Persian army.
Originally, the Persian army's formation was in the shape of a half-moon, but now the half-moon shape began to reverse, and the balance of victory fell to the Han army.
"If you invest in the Cavalry Army, plus the Shenji Battalion, Hongyi Cannon, and Wu Qi as the backbone to contain the most powerful undead army in the Persian Army, you will naturally win, but the loss will be greater. If there is another powerful army , then it’s really not good.”
Seeing that the left and right armies put pressure on the Persian army formation, Chu Tian was not surprised to win.
He was not prepared to fail.
The iron cavalry army is 20,000 high-level heavy cavalry, and its average combat power is almost the same as that of the undead army.
The undead army is no more than 10,000 people, and Chu Tian's mixed iron cavalry army is enough to destroy the undead army.
What Chutian cares about is loss.
He can't consume all his troops at once.
In the melee of the kings on the battlefield of the fifth national war, no one knows when they will be attacked by the army of other civilizations.
The Persian army remained resilient, trying to hold off the Han advance in the presence of their king.
The two armies fought from early morning to afternoon, exhausting their physical strength in the Gobi.
The two wings of the Persian army completely collapsed under the cavalry of the Han army.
Even the most elite undead army piled their corpses on the battlefield.
The spear phalanx of the Silver Spear Efficiency Army maintains the formation and moves forward, stabbing to death the undead army who are not afraid of death.
Many undead troops fell under the advance of the dense spear phalanx.
In order to repel the undead army, the Silver Spear Army also paid a heavy price.
As long as the silver gun army is close to the undead army, the opponent's sword will cut off the silver gun army's shoulder armor or pierce the silver gun army's throat.
The soldiers of the undead army, even if they are stabbed by spears, still wield their swords and spears and attack the enemy fiercely until they die in battle.
The vitality of the undead army is extremely strong, and the seriously injured undead army can also get up and fight the enemy until they are completely dead.
At least hundreds of Wei soldiers were killed by the undead army who got up because they didn't care about these seriously injured undead soldiers.
Joan of Arc wanted to use the fanatical effect of boosting morale, but Chu Tian considered that there might be other civilized lords or kings nearby, so he couldn't use all his means and troops to deal with Darius I.
"My lord, our army seems to have lost. For your safety, please order to retreat, and there is still a chance to defeat the invaders..."
Datis, the general of the Persian Empire, said to the King of Kings on the chariot.
No matter how tenacious the vitality of the undead army is, they are not immortal. Three thousand people have already been lost.
Darius I had a relaxed expression after the undead army was dispatched, but the iron cavalry army of the Han army was ferocious, smashing through the right army of the Persian army, and Xue Rengui defeated the left army.
Of the 200,000 Persian troops, 70,000 to 80,000 were killed, and their morale plummeted.
"withdraw troops!"
Darius I was obviously not reconciled, but he was undoubtedly defeated.
Darius I controlled three cities, and there was still room for detours.
As the king of the national war, Darius I, like the kings of other civilizations, would try to replenish his troops until he killed all the enemy troops that entered the territory.
"This time, I was too careless."
Darius I glanced back and left in a chariot.
With the retreat of the king, the Persian army completely collapsed, and the army was defeated like a mountain.
The Persian army at the back of the palace was still fighting with the Han army, and the corpses alone stretched for more than ten miles.
Wu Qi stationed his sword and persisted until now, his physical strength has seriously declined.
Not only does it take physical energy for a fierce general to charge into battle, but it also requires physical energy for a commander to command thousands of troops.
Xue Rengui led the white-robed army to chase and kill in the rear, expanding the results of the battle.
Chutian also gained a lot of military exploits because of this.
