Become a feudal king from today

Yongzhou.

When Zhao Xu and Wang Ying discussed delivering machine guns to the front line.

The situation of the ongoing confrontation here changed due to the actions of the Lancers.

After Ulanba suffered a setback in the middle, it retreated to Lingwu County.

But what he didn't expect was that the middle road he gave up would become the passage for the Lancers to move forward.

At this moment, in addition to the soldiers of the Xuanwu Army, Dingyuan County was crowded with lancers led by Chen Hu.

"It's really enviable. They are equipped with cavalry lances and ride on war horses. General Chen Hu, you cavalry cavalry are not ordinary powerful now. You will show your majesty this time."

At the north gate of Dingyuan County, Di Ying, the commander of the Xuanwu Army, looked at the Lancers who were about to go into battle, his eyes shining.

Although the Lancers equipped with cavalry rifles have not yet participated in large-scale wars.

But not only him, many generals are very optimistic about the Lancers.

In the past, the place where Dasong cavalry was inferior to Beidi cavalry was in riding and shooting.

But now, the Lancers not only closed the gap, but even surpassed it.

Furthermore, while carrying cavalry rifles, lancers also carried grenades.

This means that when they mount, they become lancers, and when they dismount, they become elite infantry.

War horses are just a tool for them to achieve rapid maneuverability.

With so many advantages, the Lancers are naturally popular.

"Hahaha... We cavalry have been frustrated for so long. Now we finally have an opportunity to prove ourselves. We will not miss it. Just wait for our good news."

After saying that, Chen Hu waved his hand, and the Lancers moved forward along the mountain road due north of Dingyuan County.

The northern part of Yongzhou is part of the Hetao Plain.

Therefore, after leaving the mountains in the middle, we are faced with endless flat grasslands.

The grassland is a killing ground for the cavalry, where they will confront the Beidi cavalry and at the same time destroy Beidi's supply lines, leaving Beidi in a desperate situation.

for a long time.

The Beidi Cavalry has always relied on the superiority of cavalry to threaten their supply lines on the battlefield, preventing them from fighting deep into the grasslands.

But from now on, everything will be reversed.

One and a half days.

The Lancers emerged from the mountains and reached the grasslands.

Immediately, Chen Hu led the cavalry towards Lingwu County.

Now, the central route army commanded by Ulanba merged with the west route army commanded by Mule Hongzhen.

Then the Battle of Lingwu County will become the decisive battle of this war.

As for Ashur Road, the purpose is actually the same as that of Ulanba, which is to try to open up the road and contain Dasong's troops at the same time.

…

Lingwu County.

Beidi camp.

A Beidi army is converging here.

This is the army of Beidi and Russia led by Ulanba and Negev.

"Father Khan, when we were camping outside Dingyuan County, we were bombarded by Dasong's army. Not only did our Beidi soldiers lose more than 3,000 people, but the Russian soldiers also lost more than 700 people." Seeing Mu Le Hongzhen and Ulanba looked sad and angry.

Before he arrived, in order not to look too embarrassed, he changed into a pair of clean clothes, but he could not erase the bruise on the left side of his face caused by falling when he fled in panic.

To this day, recalling the scene of shells falling from his head, he still feels chills in his heart.

"It's not your fault." Mulehon could really see that his son was frightened.

He wasn't like that at the time.

No one could have imagined that the artillery of Dasong's army could hit so far.

"Father, are you..." Hearing this, Ulan Ba ​​reacted immediately.

Before he finished speaking, Mule Hongzhen nodded.

Then, he looked at Negev with a decadent expression and said: "Colonel Negov, I am so happy to see you. After the setback here, I want your center army to withdraw and gather together. "

In this distribution of troops, he gave Ulanba very few troops, just to let him test it out.

If it is unfavorable, the two armies will merge into one place.

"I'm equally happy," Negov said.

Like Ulanba, he has not yet emerged from the shadow of the shelling in Dingyuan County.

After accepting the line of guns from the Ross Kingdom, he thought that even if there was a gap between him and the Dasong army, the gap would not be too big.

With the courage of the Russian soldiers, they can even fight a beautiful battle.

But the result was that they lost more than 700 people without even seeing the enemy's face clearly.

And that damn place was full of rocks, making it impossible to dig trenches to shelter the soldiers.

Therefore, he agreed to retreat with Ulanba.

"Colonel Negov, what do you have to say about the current stalemate?" After the greetings, Mullerhonzhen couldn't wait to ask.

For the past few days, he had been ordering soldiers to dig trenches.

The trench now extended for about three miles.

It is estimated that it will take at least six days to reach the trenches of Dasong's army.

But he was not sure whether he could successfully capture Lingwu County by then.

So he wanted to hear Negev's opinion. After all, he was a general from Russia with rich battlefield experience.

"Our strength is several times that of the other side, and we can only fight at night..." Negev pondered for a moment and said slowly.

But before he could say anything, Mullerhonzhen and other generals looked embarrassed and told Negev about the bright light in the sky.

"What!" Negev couldn't believe his ears.

But he knew there was no way Mulehon would lie to him.

At this time, his heart was shocked again.

"This is such a stupid war," Negov said in his mind.

When he went to Dongtu, he believed that the war was just as simple as massacre of the indigenous people.

But now, he only felt that the Westerners knew too little about the army of King Song Yan.

They were not fully prepared and assumed that they could conquer Dasong just like they conquered other indigenous kings.

He believed that this siege would result in their lives being wasted.

But the military order was in front of him, and he couldn't carry it out.

After thinking for a while, he couldn't think of any way.

Judging from his experience, in the process of their conquest, no matter how fancy the indigenous tactics were, they were ultimately no match for their muskets and artillery.

It makes sense now.

So, he said: "Sometimes the stupidest method on the battlefield is the most effective method."

When Mule Hongzhen heard this, his eyes darkened.

He heard the meaning of Negov's words.

Next, it seems that the only solution they have left is to take human lives.

"I understand." Mulehon nodded.

Beidi can only fight to the death!

Three more days passed.

The trench in front of the camp extended further forward, and was still more than three miles away from the trench of Dasong's army.

At this time, he received news from Ashur.

His younger brother was blocked in Yulin and unable to move forward. He also dug trenches to confront Dasong's army.

Mullahon frowned.

For him, it was enough for the Ashur tribe not to be defeated.

At least, they can contain some of the troops.

Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly a group of cavalry came in a hurry.

The leader of the cavalry knelt down in front of Mule Hongzhen and said loudly, "Khan, we found about 60,000 Dashong cavalry in the east. They are heading northwest and seem to be cutting off our supply line."
