Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 533: The tiger fell to the ground and was bullied by the dog

The tiger is the king of beasts. When it is strong, dogs, wolves, foxes and rabbits will run away when they see it from a distance, and tremble when they hear its roar. But if it is seriously injured, it is difficult to tell. It is a law of nature that the weak eat the strong. All beasts are only afraid of strong tigers, but not injured or sick tigers. This is why there is a saying that "a tiger falls flat and is bullied by a dog".

Yangjier Khan is such a tiger that fell into Pingyang. After the Battle of Koksarai, his 60,000-strong army lost 12,000. Theoretically, he still had nearly 50,000 soldiers and horses, but a considerable part of them ran away, and a small number lost confidence in victory and fled back to their tribes. , after getting rid of the pursuers, there were only 20,000 troops left.

The brave King of Turan was neither depressed nor afraid. Instead, he planted his own Khan flag on the grassland west of Sau city. According to past experience, as long as the Khan flag is planted, the scattered soldiers and horses will soon reunite. But after his defeat, in the eyes of the guard generals, he was just a wounded tiger. The loyal dogs of Lotus Khan all wanted to kill the tiger and make meritorious deeds. He only stayed in the west of Sau city for one day, and the guard Teguschaoketu, the chief of ten thousand households, and the deputy chief of ten thousand households, Chang En and Batu, led 10,000 troops to pursue him.

On weekdays, it is easy to fight 20,000 against 10,000, but after the new defeat, the loss of weapons and supplies such as swords, guns, arrows and arrows was serious. Many warriors had no arrows in their quivers and no gunpowder in their muskets. What was even worse was that their morale had not yet been restored. recover. He wanted to avoid it, but he couldn't avoid it, so he could only grit his teeth and fight.

Defeated, 20,000 people were defeated by 10,000 people. They abandoned their armor and were completely defeated.

"Please the Great Khan retreat to the city of Sa'u as soon as possible, and the slaves will come to the rear." Aslan, the captain of the guard, asked him to retreat first. The proud captain of the guard looked embarrassed at this time, and the beautiful feather on his helmet was broken in half.

Yang Gilhan's eyes seemed to be bursting with fire. The majestic King of Turan was actually being chased by a partial division of the Guards. It was a great shame and humiliation! Don't say anything, grit your teeth, and go east.

There were originally 3,000 garrison troops in Sau City. After the garrison led 2,000 men to rescue Turkestan City, only 1,000 troops were left. Even if he gathered this garrison, his subordinates would only have no more than 10,000 troops.

Just as he took a breath, three more vicious dogs came. The guards, including Qianhu Bajibabu, Jambi and Sebuteng, led an army of 10,000 to kill them. The morale of the army was depressed, and Yang Gilhan did not dare to break out of the encirclement immediately. After holding on for a day, he escaped under the cover of night under the protection of Mondale and Aslan. It was miserable and miserable. After escaping to Sozak City, only 7,000 defeated soldiers were left.

Taiyi, the guard of Sozhak City and the leader of the Khitan Tribe of the Xiaoyuzi Baiule (also translated as Baiwuli) Tribal Alliance (i.e. the Alqin Tribal Alliance), hurried out of the city to greet them. The Khitan tribe is good at hunting. Although Tai's thousand subordinates are few in number, they all have good archery skills.

"Slave to see the Great Khan, please come to the city to rest." Taiyi's voice was extremely respectful. After all, he was the Great Khan of the Kazakhs. Even if he was defeated, he would not dare to show any signs of neglect.

Seeing that it was him, Yang Gilhan felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief: "I will not enter the city. Taiyi, lead your headquarters to block the pursuers and cover my eastward retreat."

"Yes", Tai Yi gave a military salute and formed a formation beside Sozak City. Military orders are like mountains, and even though there are only a thousand soldiers, he must carry them out without hesitation.

This time the pursuer was the fierce general of the Guards, Ji Erqin Batur, the leader of Dulbert's tribe. On the orders of the Great Khan of Lotus, he led five thousand fine riders, one person and two horses, and traveled day and night to intercept Yangir Khan in a roundabout way. Way back. Unexpectedly, despite hurrying and slowing down, he was still a step too late, allowing the injured Turan Tiger to escape.

The evil fire had nowhere to go. Erqin Batur looked coldly at the mere thousand men and horses who were blocking him. The deep scar on his cheek trembled. He raised his hand and ordered viciously, "Kill them all, one person." Do not stay".

"Kill~kill~kill~" Five thousand jackals howled and surrounded Taiyi's small team.

Arrows rained down like a rain. One kilogram of Khitan soldiers opened their bows and nocked arrows at extremely fast speeds. Before the guards could rush in front of their horses, they had already fired six rounds.

Hundreds of guardsmen fell in a pool of blood, and Elinqin Batur was hit by an arrow in his left arm. But still gritted his teeth and persisted. Finally, they rushed in front of the Kazakhs and took away lives one by one with the saber in their hands. Seeing his demeanor and armor, Tai Yi knew that he was the commander-in-chief of the guard army. He wanted to capture the thieves first and capture the king first. "Hoo~" he stabbed fiercely with the tiger fork in his hand, carrying strong wind.

"Hoo~" He slashed down with an extremely domineering sword. This sword was full of killing skills, crisp, fast and accurate. With just one stab, Taiyi was cut into two pieces. Elinqin Batur licked the blood splattered in his mouth and pounced on another prey.

One kilogram of Khitan warriors were all killed in the battle, and their sacrifice bought their Great Khan time to escape.

Yangir Khan finally fled back to the Shymkent Mountains, where he left 10,000 troops of Great Yuz Amul Khan and Middle Yuz Balandu Khan. After joining together, there were a total of 17,000 troops.

"Great Khan, what should we do?" Amul Khan, Balandu Khan, Mendel, and Aslan looked at their king longingly.

"Why are you panicking? Let's rest tonight and follow me to Talasi City tomorrow morning. Governor Hadir still has 20,000 elite soldiers. After joining his Eastern Army, they marched from Kled and Naiman in the Seven Rivers Basin. , Wak, Zhalail, Kangli, and Alkhan ministries are recruiting troops. We are fighting on our own territory, and materials and soldiers can be continuously replenished. If we delay, we will also consume energy and kill the guards." Yang Gilhan still Calm and confident in his voice, as if the previous fiasco was just a small bite from a mosquito.

Today, the eastern and central parts of the Seven Rivers Basin have fallen into the hands of the Guards and have become the Dulbert Ten Thousand Households of the Davidic Kingdom. Only the western area centered on Talas City is in the hands of Kazakhs.

"Talasi" is the name of the Mongolians. In the Tang Dynasty, it was called "Talasi" in China. It was a large town in the Stone Kingdom. In history, it was famous for the Battle of Talosi against Dashi. For more than a thousand miles, we reach Suiyechuan. At the east end of Sichuan, there is Rehai and Suiye City. At the west end of Sichuan, it is connected with Shiguo, which is about more than a thousand miles long. In the middle of Sichuan, there are tribes with different surnames and some Turks with different surnames. At the southwest end of Sichuan, there is a city named Talos, a large town in the Shi Kingdom, was the place where Gao Xianzhi was defeated in the tenth year of Tianbao."

Yangir Khan, who was proficient in the art of war, ordered the Eastern Governor Hadir to lead 20,000 elite Eastern Army troops to guard Talasi City to prevent the Weiguo garrison in Qihe from advancing westward. Now it has become his life-saving straw.

When the generals heard this, their expressions perked up and they responded in unison.

Early the next morning, Yang Gil Khan was in high spirits and preparing to set off. Aslan, the captain of the guard, broke into the tent anxiously and said, "Great Khan, it's not good. Balandu Khan fled back to Karaganda with his six thousand men." city".

Zhongyuzi Balandu Khan is a separatist force in Kazakhstan. Its territory, the Karaganda region, has always maintained de facto independence. Except for symbolic payment of taxes, it is basically not under the management of the Kazakh Khanate.

Yang Gilhan almost went crazy, "Balandu, Balandu, when I was in great power, you were more obedient than a dog. Now that we have only lost a few battles, you dare to betray me."

"Great Khan, I will lead my army to hunt down that guy right now," Aslan said angrily.

Yang Gilhan waved his hand slowly, "It's too late, set off to Talasi City immediately."
