At this moment, the Kou family's army was like a rewinding flood, covering the Chola's defeated army. Even Guishuang Qingzhuang, who was so timid before that he fled before seeing his opponent, seemed to be possessed by warriors at this moment.
body, and struck hard at the Chola's defeated army.
"Everyone pursues you. Don't stop unless you capture the entire opponent's army." Lao Kou ordered loudly on his horse. At this moment, he seemed to have figured out everything. He was no longer confused at all. Go to hell.
Don't chase and kill the poor bandits!
At this time, the Kushan soldiers in the rear camp and the left camp, stimulated by the victory, roared and chased towards the front. At this time, the young and strong Kushan soldiers did not have the slightest fear, and some were just eager for military success. They fought with the wind and picked up
A human head means that an individual can exert his ultimate fighting power.
What fear, what fatigue, what awe, all disappeared at this moment, countless powers emerged from the deepest part of the body, the reward of a hundred acres of fertile land, the reward of an acre of house, these substantial rewards impacted the young and strong people of Guishang.
brain.
Even if there is no promotion of the Kshatriya caste, the substantial reward is enough to make everyone excited. The third-level knighthood. For Qin Jue's method of granting knighthood based on beheading for merit, facing such a great victory and pursuit.
Opportunity, all the young and strong motivation is pulled to full value.
After all, this is a pursuit of a defeated army, killing a hundred acres of people. Who can resist such a free bargain? Two hundred thousand Dalits are like walking treasure chests at this moment, and their heads are bound to fall.
, if you don’t chase now, wait until later.
For a moment, the young men of Guishuang roared out and chased the defeated Zhu Luo.
Lao Kou couldn't help but shake his head when he saw this scene, but in the end he said nothing. For Lao Kou, winning is enough, other performances are not important, chase!
The old enemy rolled up the rear camp, the left camp, and the previously defeated Kushan Qingzhuang of the front camp, and launched a pursuit attack on more than 100,000 Chola soldiers. The entire Chola army collapsed. In the current situation, the organizational strength is in rubbish.
At this time, the rear army was unable to reorganize the front line.
As a result, the Zhuluo army's nearly 200,000 troops directly rolled back its own logistics and civilians, causing the collapse of the team to become even larger. Seeing this, the old bandits immediately pursued them non-stop to death, taking advantage of the chaos to strangle everyone in the chaos.
The backbone of the Chola group fought tooth and nail to restore their organizational strength.
Driving this great flood back to the depths of the Chola Dynasty, at this time, the Cholas were limited by the speed of information transmission and the speed of Kou's advance. There was no time to mobilize the soldiers on the Yanbian defense line to gather the defeated army, and there was no time to organize more
Human hands held back the fleeing soldiers on the front line.
So much so that the Kou family's army began to advance crazily, just as they had crossed the Northern Dynasty and the Yangtze River. At this time, Lao Kou's mind was unusually clear. He seized the ships, advanced through waterways, blocked the city, and surrounded it without attacking.
They forcibly jumped over the fortified city and attacked the Chola rescue corps everywhere.
Concentrate superior forces, execute decapitation tactics, quickly cut off the Chola's food and logistics lines, and attack the capital of the Chola dynasty, Thanjavur, in a leaping advance.
This method, which is completely different from classical warfare and is close to the combination of penetration tactics and leapfrog tactics in the middle of World War II, allowed Lao Kou to lead a main force of over 100,000 young men to advance to the northern part of the Cauvery Delta at an unimaginable speed.
At this time, Zhu Luo reluctantly gathered the troops in the south, but unfortunately the operation was made in a hurry.
In the large-scale battle in the Cauvery Delta, the main force of the Cholas held back the old invaders, and then waited for the superior forces to concentrate, preparing to rely on the concentrated tactics of the large army to encircle and suppress the old invaders from all directions. After all, the old invaders' breakthrough method was too unscientific.
It was almost like a blitzkrieg, bypassing most of the built cities in front, and appeared directly in the royal capital of the Cholas. Once the main force was blocked by the Chola Dynasty, there would inevitably be problems with the logistics in the north. As long as the Kou family's retreat was cut off, the Chola Dynasty would
Almost capable of catching a turtle in a urn, he executed beheading tactics on all the elite members of the Kou family.
However, what makes Lao Kou better than the Chola Dynasty is that in terms of grand strategy, Lao Kou made absolutely correct judgments. The Kou soldiers who blocked the northern strong city had already given up attacking the northern Zhu Luo Jian before the main Chola force was dispatched.
The blockade of the city.
The wisdom that Lao Kou gained from facing all kinds of life in the past forty years really showed its effect. After Lao Kou's empty camp, the defenders of the northern city were frightened by the combat effectiveness that Kou had shown before. Instead of sending troops directly, they
It took me a few days to make the correct decision.
In this way, all the tentacles released by the Kou family were recovered one step before the Chola Dynasty. With a simple time difference, the main force of the Chola Dynasty on the south bank of the Cauvery River directly encountered an unexpected blow, and the waterway
More than 7,000 people were able to deliver a fatal blow to the main Chola force at just the right moment in the chaos.
The main force of 130,000 Cholas collapsed immediately, even though there were two entire elite regiments among them. Facing the full blow of the old enemy, the Cauvery River was stained with blood.
With the collapse of the main force of the Cholas, the old bandits did not give the Cholas any chance to breathe. They rushed to Thanjavur city that day and took advantage of the moonlit night to directly attack the city, regardless of the loss of soldiers. They used ladders, siege towers, flying bridges and other very special attacks.
The rudimentary construction machinery, after suffering 40,000 casualties, captured the Chola capital at dawn the next day.
When the rescue regiment from the northern Chola arrived, the king's flag was already changing at the top of the city. They hurried along slowly, but what they saw was such a discouraging scene.
The old bandits, who had rested for two more days and were waiting for work, decisively organized 60,000 backbones after the first two Chola relief regiments arrived. They took advantage of the enemy's oncoming attack and had not yet set up camp to defeat them in one go, and then pursued them all the way.
After killing all the reinforcements in the six northern cities, they quickly sent people to take control of the six northern cities. From then on, the Chola Dynasty completely changed hands.
The entire operation was so dangerous that if one step went wrong, the enemy would most likely be defeated and even risk his life. However, the war was won, and all unqualified operations were correct and meaningful.
Yes, just like how the eldest princess of Yiyang can now be so proud to tell Zhong Yao all about her son's failed operations in the underworld.
"The Marquis of Shangxiang is indeed brave and decisive. If he makes one mistake, he will never be able to take over the entire Chola Dynasty so quickly." Zhong Yao clapped his hands and said, he also knows the army, and even Zhong Yao himself can command the army.
Therefore, Zhong Yao realized more clearly how terrible Kou's operation was. It was really a rhythm that meant he would be doomed if he made one wrong move.
"We haven't taken it yet. It's just that we have taken all the north. The south still needs a lot of time. After all, the rebels of the Chola Dynasty are still resisting." Princess Yiyang clapped her hands and said, but her words seemed like
Just like showing off.
The Chola Dynasty is easy to defend in the north and difficult to attack in the south. The south is all coastal plains and there is no danger to defend at all. The capital Thanjavur is located in the Cauvery River Delta. It is the last line of defense for the entire country, and Lao Kou showed off there.
After one operation, the country is finished.
Even the north has been leveled, the river has been crossed, and the south is all plains. It is only a matter of time before it is cleared. Think about it, when the Dalits captured Chola, they also leveled the north, and then beheaded the city of Thanjavur.
The South can solve it if it takes some time and experience.
"But even so, I would like to congratulate Your Highness first." Zhong Yao cupped his fists and saluted, "I will never accept you as the Queen Mother in the future."
There is basically no resistance to Kou's enfeoffment. Unless Kou cuts off his own hand, there is nothing he can do, but judging from the situation, he probably won't do that.
"Where, where." The eldest princess of Yiyang said with a smile. She was really happy. Originally, the eldest princess was the limit of her status in this life. She didn't expect that when the end came, she could actually get the honorary title of queen mother. In the future
Death can also be called "died".
After basically reaching an agreement with the Kou family, Zhong Yao didn't stay long. The eldest princess of Yiyang mainly supported the sixty-year-old Lian, but Zhong Yao was happy to talk to him, even if he had a meal, thirty years old, count
Forget it, I can't afford to mess with melons and plums.
"Let's go back and collect information about the Kou family. The performance of Marquis Shangxiang is too weird. One wrong step in this style of play will lead to death." Zhong Yao said to his guards when he got into the car.
Although it makes sense to win, it also depends on how you win. The victory that Zhong Yao appreciates most is Chen Xi's kind of victory. Because he is stable, not afraid of losing, and can afford to lose, there is no need to look at the process. Victory is the inevitable result, completely.
no need to worry.
The Kou family's victory was too dangerous in Zhong Yao's eyes. Princess Yiyang didn't know much about military warfare. She only saw that her son did not lose a single battle and defeated the Zhuluo Dynasty in the whole process. But in Zhong Yao's eyes, the Kou family
Every step of the way is very tense. If you make a mistake, you may lose your life.
However, from a purely military point of view, every step has a considerable error tolerance. In the battle of the Cauvery River, the main force blocking the rear did not arrive, and there were thousands of main forces on the waterway who stabbed and killed from the back of the river. At most, it was a tank attack.
It won't be so smooth in Jawur City.
But if you think about it carefully, if the army behind the blockade had not arrived, it would be impossible for the Chola reinforcements to arrive. The Kou family would have more time in Thanjavur to think about how to attack Thanjavur.
There is no need to launch an attack overnight.
Of course, Zhong Yao, who launched the overnight attack, thought it was right, because the situation at that time had reached that point. After cutting off the main force in the Cauvery River, the Kou family's military strength had reached a certain peak and would inevitably fall back in a short time. It was better to take advantage of the situation.
With the momentum at its peak and when it can withstand extreme losses, directly attack the Chola King's city.
After all, if you get to that point, if you don't win, Kou can retreat, at most it will be peeling skin, and if you win, you will really make a lot of money. As a result, he actually won one overnight.
In the capital of the country, this is truly an almost miraculous achievement.
"It seems that I need to meet with the Marquis of Shangxiang. This is not an ordinary commander. If these actions are not due to luck, but to strength..." Zhong Yao let out a breath.
