Timur's retreat was very efficient. Early the next morning, only countless empty tents were left in various military camps.
Of course, Yang Feng didn't pursue him either.
Immediately afterwards, Tan Yuan and Kun Timur arrived with Wushi Yomi.
They also had ten thousand troops.
If you put it all together in Aksu City, there are still 28,000.
So Yang Feng took the 60,000 troops from the Western Expedition, plus the 5,000 that Chali lost, and then added the 5,000 from Baicheng, 5,000 from Wushi, and 15,000 from Ugeqiha Shiha, for a total of 90,000
There are currently only thirty-eight thousand left in the army...
Very tragic.
Fortunately, morale is still very high.
In fact, everyone is not too sad about the death of their companions.
After all, despite the heavy casualties, the question is that this is just a patchwork. Will the soldiers under Shamichagan be sad that two-thirds of the Wala soldiers under Ugqi Hashiha died? They would have done it without cheering the Wala soldiers.
It's very honorable. Will the soldiers of Hami feel sad because Tamerlane slaughtered Baicheng?
They were indeed heartbroken.
They were devastated that this was not their fault.
They were obviously the ones who should have gone to bloodbath the city and steal everything.
Therefore, although the overall losses were so heavy, the various ministries did not respond much.
On the contrary, the mood of looking at each other's misfortunes was even higher.
I have to say that even if Yang Feng, a cheater with various tricks, can lead such a team, it would be impossible for someone who is more normal to lead such a team.
After Timur withdrew his troops, he took more than 96,000 soldiers with him and rushed towards Kashgar as quickly as possible, because he never thought that he would raise a butcher knife to this city. Hudada, who stayed behind,
The eldest son quickly opened the city gate to greet the Sultan, and then he was trampled to pieces by Timur's army. Ninety-six thousand Hezhong and Khorasan elites completed the cleansing of the city in less than a day, and all the wealth was
All the grain and livestock were plundered, all the young women were captured, and those who were not worth taking away were basically killed.
Then set the whole city on fire.
"demon!"
Ambassador Yang stood outside the gate of the burned-to-ruins city of Kashgar with an indignant look on his face, looking at the charred corpses strewn all over the place.
At his feet was Hudada, who was kneeling on the ground, weeping profusely.
Behind them were countless weeping Dugrat soldiers.
This is already half a month later.
Hudaida was coaxed by Timur to go to Kunkuo to stop Song Sheng. When he arrived in Quxianxiang, he received a message from Yang Feng saying that Timur had withdrawn his troops and that Yang Feng was willing to discuss the truce with him.
He didn't believe it at first.
But Timur's withdrawal was quickly confirmed.
He was not stupid. He immediately realized that something was wrong and returned with his men without hesitation. When they arrived in Aksu, Yang Feng came out and told him that a group of former Oara soldiers came from Kashgar to Aksu to find Uge Qiha Shiha and said
Timur massacred Kashgar. Although Khudaida said that Yang Feng was talking nonsense, he still ran back with his men regardless of anything, and Yang Feng followed him uninvited.
And then there is this scene now.
"Yimi, this is all your own sin. I made it very clear at the beginning. I just want you to give 30,000 young people and bring a year's food to work for me. I even give you wages, but you
Why do you have to fight? If you want to fight, then fight, but why do you have to lure the wolf into the house? Timur is your enemy. You know clearly that he is ambitious and has long coveted your land and wealth. Why do you still want to lure the wolf into the house? I
I have never thought about destroying you, I just want you to provide some work, and I even give you wages. Look at it now, don't you feel that you are sorry for them?"
Yang Feng pointed at the dead bodies inside and said.
Hudaida was still crying with tears streaming down his face.
Yang Feng ignored him and turned around to look at the Dugrat soldiers behind him.
"Do you want revenge?"
he shouted.
"think!"
A young general shouted.
"think!"
…
This was followed by countless roars.
"Then are you still willing to accept the rule of him and his family?"
Yang Feng pointed at Hu Gada and said.
The young general looked at Yi Mi with hatred.
"Both of his sons are dead. Ahemah's son Said Ali also died. This is the punishment of the gods. His stupidity caused the death of our family. His betrayal of the Ming Emperor made us
Along with being punished by the gods, he is no longer qualified to rule us."
he said.
"kill him!"
"kill him!"
…
Then came countless roars of hatred.
In fact, Yang Feng really didn't kill many soldiers in Kashgar, including Yarkand and other cities, and not many people died under his hands. As for cities like Aksu, it was none of their business. But because of Husuda's stupidity, he was killed
After losing their family, of course they now hate Husuda. After all, the latter's family is just the ruler, and even Kashgar is not just his family.
There are actually multiple families that hold power here.
According to original history, after his death, the powerful people of Kashgar even dedicated the city to Timur's grandson Ulugh Beg.
Later, Said Ali, the grandson of Khudada, recaptured it.
Now of course these people are angry with him.
"No, we will not kill him, he should commit suicide to apologize.
I will take you to pursue Timur.
King Yan of the Ming Dynasty has led an army of 300,000 people to go south from Talas. I just received the news yesterday that he is marching towards Seran City. Timur hurriedly withdrew his troops after learning about this. I will take you and others
Other ministries, let us pursue Timur together, and we will fight to Andiyan together. If he dares to kill your relatives, you will go to Andiyan to bloodbath. Take back the women who were snatched away by them, and take back the wealth that originally belonged to you. We will lead him
Go with him.
Let him die in front of Timur.
Let all the believers of your gods see Timur's true face."
Yang Feng said.
This is killing people and killing your heart!
Hudada had no other choice. After all, he still had other grandsons alive. He could either listen to Yang Feng's arrangement and spray Timur's face with blood, or Yang Feng would kill all his remaining grandsons.
No need for Yang Feng to do anything.
As long as Yang Feng doesn't stop him, these soldiers will destroy his family now.
"revenge!"
The young general drew his sword and shouted.
"Bloodbath in Andijan!"
"Bloodbath in Samarkand!"
…
the soldiers roared.
"It's strange, what do you think?"
Yang Feng lowered his head and said.
Suddenly Dauda stopped crying.
"I'm wrong, I'm guilty, I'm sorry to the Great Khan, I'm sorry to the Ming Emperor, I am no longer qualified to rule Kashgar and the cities in Xiangyang, please ambassador to temporarily rule Kashgar and the cities in Xiangyang, waiting for the ruling of the Ming Emperor
, also ask the ambassador to take them to save their relatives, I am willing to follow the ambassador to atone for my sins."
he said.
Yang Feng nodded.
"I reluctantly agreed, but do these aliens have anything else to say?"
He looked at Yerqiang Yomi and others gloomily.
The latter woke up immediately...
"Every little thing, listen to the ambassador."
They said in unison.
"Then go back and make preparations. Kashgar has been looted by Timur. You have to put in more food and livestock for the armies. However, you can get more after taking Andiyan."
Yang Feng said.
The aliens looked at each other with tears in their eyes...
Want more?
How many people will starve to death!
"What, you don't want to?"
Yang Feng shouted.
Several generals in Kashgar immediately looked at these secrets with murderous intent. Now that Kashgar has suffered a tragedy, these secrets must be dragged into the ranks of hunting Timur, otherwise they will take advantage of him in the future.
Seize the territory of Kashgar. If they don't want to, these people really don't mind joining forces with Yang Feng's men to open up the cities of Yarkand first to make up for the losses.
"Yes, yes, I will go back immediately to collect military supplies."
Yerqiang Yi Mi was so frightened that he quickly said.
"I don't like people to lie to me. I think you all know how I tore up Miran Shah."
Yang Feng said.
"The little one dare not deceive the ambassador!"
Yerqiang Yimi said quickly.
Several other secret agents expressed their opinions one after another. Even if they went back to sell iron, they still wanted to collect military supplies for Ambassador Yang for the Western Expedition.
Not stupid.
It’s just a hardship for the people.
But if they don't, they should be torn apart like Miran Shah.
At this moment, their eyes looking at Hudada were also full of hatred...
It was all his fault.
The blood of young people has dried up, the food has been exhausted, livestock has been slaughtered in large numbers, horses and camels have died of exhaustion, and even old people have starved to death because of lack of food, and it has to continue now, all because of his stupidity. At this moment, this
Several foreigners really wanted to hack him to death, so their only hope now was to follow Yang Feng and plunder him from the river to make up for some losses.
But that would require the young man to bleed.
But there was no other choice. After all, their losses were too great. They were all bleeding and heartbroken, like a group of hungry wild beasts. The only thing they could think of now was to find prey to bite.
And the youth must bleed.
Because of such losses, the anger of their subjects has been simmering to the extreme. If these young men cannot vent their anger in the river, then they will probably vent it on them.
Be more deadly!
It's safer to be at the dead center.
In this way, Yang Feng completed his transformation in identity for these people.
From their sworn enemy, the devil became their commander-in-chief.
Magical world.
At this time, far away in the river.
Shymkent.
On the green grassland, Zhu Di stood on his horse and looked at the battlefield ahead...
The opponent chose to fight.
After going south from Talas, the river cavalry continued to harass and delay his move south. At the same time, the Shymkent defenders blocked all the city gates and chose to resist desperately. Reinforcements from Turkic City, Tashkent and other places arrived one after another. After several
After small-scale contact, they finally assembled the strength for a decisive battle, and then took the initiative to attack the Ming army under Shymkent City.
To protect the small city behind Shymkent that is considered a holy place.
However, it was not the cavalry that faced them.
"Your Majesty, although your son-in-law is not good at charging into battle, he is quite good at commanding formations."
Xu Huizu said with a smile.
Now facing the cavalry in the river is Zhu Di's son-in-law Yuan Rong.
And he is the general of Shenji Camp.
So what he is leading now is actually an army from the Shenji Battalion.
The current scale of the Shenji Battalion has expanded to 50,000. It is divided into five armies, front, rear, left, center, and center. Each army has four infantry, one cavalry, and one artillery regiment, a total of six regiments. In fact, it is four Spanish squares plus cavalry and artillery.
Those field guns are the artillery to which they belong.
This was originally stationed in Datong.
The Shenji Battalion has two armies in the capital and three armies outside.
The one in Xi'an is under the command of Chang Sheng.
Much the same.
One in Peiping.
Theoretically, it should be strengthened for these considered large military areas.
But it was actually to prevent Zhu Di.
Although Yuan Rong is Zhu Di's son-in-law, his family is in the capital, and his generals are also all guards in the capital. There is no need to worry about him. Moreover, he is Zhu Di's son-in-law, which also shows that the emperor's grandson has no suspicion of King Yan.
He has let his son-in-law lead the Shenji Battalion, how relieved he is!
As for this time, it was the Emperor Taisun who specifically ordered Xu Huizu to bring the Shenji Battalion to help his uncle.
or……
To scare his uncle.
At this moment, four phalanxes of 1,500 people formed a giant phalanx on the battlefield. To be precise, it was a rhombus formation. A thousand cavalry were placed around the last phalanx, and artillery was placed directly in front and to the left of the front phalanx.
The front of the two square formations is towards the outside.
In front of them, a large number of river cavalry were charging towards these seemingly light infantry.
Those field guns kept spewing flames.
The two-pound cannonball pierced the air, causing casualties among the attacking river cavalry.
At the same time, the musketeers in the small phalanx of muskets on the left and right of the phalanx were firing in turns, and bullets also continued to fall on the cavalry in the river.
The latter is quite brave.
They shouted a certain slogan, raised their spears and wildly urged their horses, and then they continued to fall with blood and flesh flying everywhere.
After leaving dead bodies along the way, they finally approached the Ming army's formation.
The artillerymen at the front quickly threw down their cannons, and then retreated into the infantry behind them. The three rows of musketeers directly in front of the infantry stood ready with their muskets raised. They had trained countless times. The first row half-knelt, the second row slightly bent, and the third row
Standing upright, waiting for the enemy to enter their range.
Soon the river cavalry entered within ten feet.
With the roar of firing, all the musketeers pulled the triggers at the same time. The intensive volleys at close range caused the river cavalry to fall in pieces, and then the musketeers quickly retreated into formation. The attacking river cavalry rushed through the dead bodies everywhere in confusion, and then
Colliding into a dense mass of spears, when a cavalry has to face almost a dozen extra-long spears, bravery is of no use. And at the same time, the musketeer who retreated to the middle of the spearmen calmly
Complete the reloading, and then pull the trigger on them again. The bullets are almost useless and each gunshot can take away the life of a cavalryman.
When these cavalry were blocked, they quickly divided to the left and right.
Then there were shotgun blasts from the cannons on the left and right phalanxes, and rounds of fire from the musketeers.
The cavalrymen in the river raised their bows and arrows and fired at each other.
But the arrows they fired could not penetrate the full iron armor of the Ming army.
Under the heavy blows of shotguns and bullets, more and more cavalrymen fell.
Blood dyes the grassland red.
"This time it can be considered as a deterrent to these tiles."
Xu Huizu looked at Gui Lichi and others who were watching the battle and said.
Zhu Di still didn't speak.
Xu Huizu smiled casually and walked to the other side.
Watching him walk away, Zhu Neng said angrily: "The Duke of Wei is as close as the king. This is so chilling."
