Darkhan Baturu stood outside the tent with an anxious expression, looking to the west and sighing.
The Zalut tribe was attacked by fire from the Zhou army on the Luan River, but the Zalut people who came to report the warning were vague.
How could the Zhou army attack from the river? Didn't the Zarut people set up horse-proof stakes and trenches? What about the scouts and sentries?
This is impossible even if you think about it, so this also puzzled Darkhan Batulu.
But it is a fact that they were attacked by the Great Zhou army. Just look at the dazzling red light in the sky, and you will know what kind of fire demon poison the Zarut people's camp is suffering.
According to the person who reported the news, due to the enemy's attack from the river, the entire west side of the camp was set on fire. What was even more troublesome was that many frightened horses were running around in the camp, and these horses were unknown to be contaminated with poison.
Whatever happened, it was actually ignited. Frightened and in pain, the entire camp was thrown into chaos.
Many soldiers were even killed and trampled to death by frightened horses while they were sleeping. Later, the whole situation became uncontrollable. All the soldiers fled to the east and south in a swarm, because only those who were not surrounded by the fire were
These two sides.
Now countless rebels are at a loss in the darkness. As the most loyal ally of the Zarut people, Darkhan Baturu cannot sit back and watch the Zarut tribe be destroyed like this, so he gathers them and guides them to his own camp.
It’s also what it should be.
The key is that even the leader of the Zalut people, Bayan Dar Elden, who led his troops this time, is missing. This is what worries Darhan Batulu the most. The Zarut people have lost this leader.
I wonder if Zhongtu, his son, can still maintain the morale of the Zalut people and revive the Zalut tribe?
"Sheldenler, you must be careful when you go out this time. You just need to gather the people to prevent them from being confused. Don't get close to their camp to prevent them from being disrupted by their chaotic troops..."
Darkhan Baturu couldn't help but tell his generals: "Go quickly."
“Don’t worry, sir, I will be careful in the end.”
As the fence gate outside the camp was opened, the double-barreled horses were also lifted aside. The cavalry that had been formed in the camp left the camp first, followed by the two thousand infantrymen who also left the camp one after another.
There seemed to be some vague sounds coming from the darkness in the distance, but they were barely audible under the footsteps of the infantry who were leaving the stronghold and the hoofbeats of a thousand cavalry who were gathering outside.
Engedel, who was standing next to Darkhan Batulu, listened intently, and then fell to the ground. In shock, Darkhan Baturu beside him couldn't help but said: "Engedel, what's wrong?"
Engelder suddenly jumped up as if he had been pricked by a needle, with a ferocious expression on his face: "Close the village gate, close the village gate! Close the village gate quickly!"
Most of the infantry have marched outside the village gate, and the cavalry outside the village gate are also lining up. The people in the village looked at Engelder who was roaring like crazy, with puzzled expressions on their faces.
“What’s the matter, Engedel?” Darkhan Baturu looked at his most proud son in puzzlement.
“Father, the enemy is attacking! The enemy is attacking!” Engelder roared with cold sweat all over his body: “The enemy cavalry is attacking, close the door quickly!”
Darkhan Batulu looked outside the village gate in shock. In the originally dark wilderness, a large group of blurry figures suddenly appeared. Accompanied by the rapid sound of hooves, it was like a large group of people pouring out of the dark night.
.
The face is covered with animal patterns, and the body is covered with black armor. It is a large area of darkness. In the sudden light of the torch, and in the sound of "boom boom boom boom" strings, a hail of arrows roars in.
The soldiers of the Bayote tribe who were still lining up were caught off guard, and in an instant, more than a hundred of them fell to the ground amid screams.
In the midst of the chaos, before there was even time to react properly, a strong man covered in iron leaf armor, wearing a beast mask and a wolf helmet, brandishing a meteor mace and roaring angrily, took the lead and rushed straight to the gate.
, swept out suddenly, and met the two Bayot warriors who originally wanted to block them, but were instantly knocked off their horses, with large chunks of blood gushing out from their mouths.
Engedel inside the village gate almost broke his teeth: "Father, he is a barbarian from the Yehe tribe!"
Of course, Darkhan Baturu recognized that these roaring armored cavalry were elite cavalry from the Yehe Tribe. Unexpectedly, they were recruited by Zhou to act as thugs, and all the shots were fired at his Bayot Tribe.
Darkhan Batulu was heartbroken, seeing the armored cavalry of the Yehe tribe pouring out of the darkness and sweeping past the gate of the village. He was invincible, and his thousand cavalrymen who had not yet had time to complete the team were almost invincible.
Without making any reaction, he was rushed into chaos by the other party.
The infantry who had just had time to step out of the village gate were even more dizzy by this wave of charge. Like a red-hot sharp knife, they easily cut through the soft cheese and rushed towards the chaotic and crowded village gate.
come over.
“Father, hurry up and close the gate of the village and take out Juma!” Engelder shouted angrily in a loud voice: “Hurry up and close the gate and get ready for Juma!”
Once the opponent seizes the door, it will really be the end of the Bayot tribe. At night, thousands of the opponent's armored cavalry rush into the camp. If the opponent takes the opportunity to set fire to cause chaos, just like the Zarut tribe,
Then it's really all over.
Darkhan Batulu and Engedel were both frightened by the fire attack of the Zalut tribe. They didn't know how the Zhou Dynasty could do this. If these Yehe barbarians also had the fire attack of the Zhou army.
Secret method, then these Ye He barbarians must not be allowed to approach the camp.
Darkhan waved his hand in pain and said, "Close the door and close the door!"
He could only watch helplessly as the rebel soldiers who were defeated by the opponent's formation rolled back. His son's judgment was very accurate. Once the enemy pushed these rebel soldiers back and rushed into the camp, it would be really out of control.
Three thousand soldiers were beaten into a ball of mud without any preparation. Darhan Batulu watched helplessly as thousands of Yehe armored cavalry chased and killed his tribe outside the gate of the village.
Countless soldiers were beheaded outside the village gate like this. There were roars, wails, screams, swords and guns clashing, and iron hooves like thunder. Scenes of life and death dramas were staged within a few hundred meters outside the village gate.
…
As the organized Bayuet crossbowmen began to fire at the Ye He armored cavalry outside the village gate, the Ye He cavalry began to take the initiative to stay away from the village gate, but they did not leave immediately, but continued to chase them around.
Killing the Bayot soldiers who could not enter the stronghold and could only escape into the darkness.
Engelder's lips were bitten and bled. Watching the enemy wreak havoc and poisoning his son outside the village gate was undoubtedly the most unbearable torture, but he was powerless. On the one hand, he did not know that the enemy was still hiding in the darkness.
I wonder if there might be any conspiracy or conspiracy. On the other hand, in this kind of darkness, no one dares to take such a risk.
It wasn't until Yehe's cavalry slowly disappeared in the darkness for a long time that Engelder dared to quietly open the village gate and send a small group of cavalry out to investigate the situation. By this time, Yehe's cavalry had already disappeared without a trace, and the horizon had begun to
It turns fish belly white.
At this moment, Delgrad had already led these three thousand armored knights to enter the city through the east gate of Qian'an City.
This was a heart-wrenching battle, and it can be said to be the most enjoyable battle in Delgrad in many years. Although the enemy was only the Bayot tribe in Nekalkha, this kind of attack caught the opponent by surprise, like chopping up a melon.
The dish-like flavor is far beyond compare with other flavors.
It wasn't until after entering the city that Delgrad counted his 3,000 soldiers. Less than a hundred horsemen were lost in the battle, and only more than 300 horsemen were injured. However, the Bayot people were killed in his own hands.
Delgrad made a rough estimate and found that there were at least two thousand people. It can be said that such a high victory-loss ratio is extremely rare.
The sky is gradually getting brighter, and Zhuoli Ketuhunbatulu and Zaisai, who are sitting in the city of sleep, can finally send their troops out to check what's going on.
Overnight, not only the Zalut tribe was attacked by fire, but also the Bayot tribe, which was preparing to rescue the Zalut tribe, was attacked by Ye Hejia's cavalry, and the Bahrain tribe was also harassed. Fortunately, Bahrain
The troops stabilized their position and were not taken advantage of by the enemy.
However, the tragic conditions of the Zarut tribe and the Bayot tribe are unbearable to witness.
Looking at the ruins of the Zalut Camp filled with fireworks, the strong scorched smell was nauseating, mixed with fire oil and burned horses. The smell of soldiers lingered on the entire platform. Burnt tents, corpses could be seen everywhere, and the painful
The whining and suppressed sobs made the leaders of various tribes look miserable.
Looking at the Luanhe River in the distance, it was still calm, as if nothing had happened.
It’s not that they can’t accept death, nor can they accept defeat, but such inexplicable defeats and huge losses that they don’t even understand what happened are a bit hard to accept.
The leader of the Zarut tribe, Bayandar Ileden, was seriously injured and survived under the protection of dozens of guards. However, his injury was not caused by the enemy, but was caused by falling from the horse after being collided by a frightened horse.
Yes, this situation is undoubtedly a shame for the Mongolians who live on horseback all day long.
However, compared to the nearly 10,000 Zarut tribe who lost more than half of their lives overnight, less than 4,000 people were able to escape unharmed, and less than 800 of the 3,000 Bayot tribe survived. Such a tragic ending
It was difficult for Zhuoli Ketuhunbatulu and Zaisai, as well as Darhan Batulu, the leader of the Bayot tribe, to accept it.
Before the formal siege started, the five divisions of the Inner Khalkha Army had already suffered more than 7,000 casualties. This meant that the Eastern Route Army had already lost more than 10% of its effective strength before the war started.
