Then Xiao Pu Gushali led the troops to attack with full confidence, marching all the way from Hu Siwo ‘er to Gaochang City, ready to join the local Uighur army to attack the army.
In order to ensure that in case he is lost, the army of the East Karahan Kingdom in Hunsheng area will act together with him to fight against the army.
But when he marched into Quxian area, he saw a group of terrified Uighur refugees and defeated soldiers.
Through talking with this group of people, I heard that the army had breached Gaochang City, killed Xizhou Uighur King’s younger brother, and captured Xizhou Uighur more than 300 people. Xizhou Uighur King just didn’t know where he had gone.
Now the whole territory of Xizhou Uighur is a mess, and the army has won the battle.
"How did that happen? Don’t you also have a lot of horses? Don’t you have many cavalry, too? Is Chengdu a waste? ! How could you lose? How did you lose so fast? ！”
Xiao Pugushali is a little nervous. He can rage and seize a defeated Uighur and give him a Zuan output.
The defeated soldier couldn’t stand it for a long time, crying and telling about the strength of the army and their miserable experience.
The army has terrible cavalry, excellent armor and powerful combat knives.
Their weapons can’t cut through military armor, but military steel knives can easily cut them to protect them. They can’t kill the cavalry, but the cavalry can easily defeat them.
In Gaochang Battle, thirty thousand cavalry and ten thousand cavalry in Xizhou Uighur King were defeated badly.
Their most elite group of warriors desperately attacked the army cavalry, but they were pushed back by a wave of troops, leaving no last army to be wiped out.
Dead bodies piled up into mountains, blood flowed into rivers, and cavalry tirelessly pursued them and chased them to the gates of heaven and earth.
There were more than a dozen people who fled with the defeated soldier, but he was the only one who managed to escape to Quxian after the army pursued him.
"Run! We are no match for Chinese people! They’re not people! It’s a demon! I’m here to kill the evil spirits! circle runner If you don’t run, you won’t come! ！”
Chapter 145 Solitary defeat
In the end, the defeated soldier seemed to be insane, and he ran wildly while screaming.
Seeing that he was so shaken, Xiao Pu Gu Sha Li couldn’t help it, and he was shot with an arrow.
It’s easy to shoot this man, but it seems that it’s not so easy to fight against his mouth as a fiend army
Xiao Pugushali was uneasy and didn’t dare to move on, so he stayed. Qu Xian sent someone to continue to explore the news eastward and asked the local Uighur refugees and defeated soldiers for news.
In the end, he got the news from these people. Almost all of them are strong enemies, and they can’t kill them. If they fight against the army, they will kill themselves.
The more you listen, the more mysterious you listen, the more you feel uneasy and very worried.
Xiao Pu Gu Sha Li is also depressed. How do you hear this? How do you feel that the Western Liao is bound to die? There is no way out. What tactical strategy is there?
In the face of an army attack, let’s just surrender. What are we fighting for?
The Ministry asked him what to do when he came, and he reasoned about it and didn’t know what to do
Dare to fight
I want to run, but I’m worried that I’ll be looked down upon by Yelu and not laughed at by Xiao Duolu when I get back.
Although the army had not yet arrived, more than 5,000 cavalry from the East Karahan Kingdom came to support him, which made him more confident, but the situation remained unchanged and he still dared not attack.
It is not a long-term solution for the Ministry to advise him to either attack or withdraw his troops and leave Quxian. Even if Quxian is to be defended, it is not a strategic place. There is no dangerous place to defend, so it is best to lead the army to the dangerous place.
But Xiao Pu’s ancient sand is just like being possessed, and he doesn’t want to go anywhere, so he can leave the song first.
The Ministry was worried, but soon they were not so worried.
Su Haisheng told Chen Qixian, the vanguard general of cavalry, that when he heard that the reinforcements from the Western Liao Dynasty had arrived in Quxian, he was stagnant. He thought that it was best to have the first hand, so he led the cavalry to attack Quxian with five thousand starry nights and directly cut off Xiao Pu’s retreat in Gushali.
He led the cavalry to attack the rear road of the Western Liao Army, which just destroyed a large-scale transportation and supply convoy and intercepted the grain and hay. It was a bumper harvest.
After the victory of the war, Chen Qixian took the initiative to let some prisoners go to Quxian to report.
The prisoners panicked and fled to Quxian and told Xiao Pu Gushali the news, letting him know that the 25,000 Western Liao and Karahan allied forces were cut off by the army and lost their grain.
At that time, Xiao Pugu Shali was even more flustered and at a loss. He could listen to the Ministry’s suggestion and try to defeat the army with 25 thousand superior troops. He should return to Hu Siwu’s ear first and then think of other ways.
If we don’t leave now, everyone will really die here after five days of running out of rations.
There is no better way to tide over the crisis. Xiao Pugushali can accept this suggestion and lead the army.
It’s a pity that although he has a good personal force, he has no experience in unifying troops, and he has no military ability to face the number of 25,000 troops and 5,000 troops who are less than him. He was successfully ruined and had good fighting capacity.
Should I say that Chen Qi first felt the fighting capacity of the cavalry in the Western Liao Dynasty? They were adept at riding and shooting, but for Xiao Pu’s strange tactics, they might be able to entangle with the army for a while.
Unfortunately, I will be exhausted by the three armed forces.
Near the end of the war, Chen Qixian led the Qinbing Guard to go straight to the large array of Zhongjun in the Western Liao army, and cut through the large array of Zhongjun in one fell swoop and rushed directly towards Xiao Pugu Shali.
Xiao Pu Gushali was scared and ran away as soon as possible. As a result, Chen Qixian’s Qinbing hand crossbow hit his hip horse. A staggered horse threw him and directly told him to break his neck and die.
Although the Western Liao and Karahan allied forces were good at fighting, they were also feudal army commanders who died. Those who were still alive collapsed and were chased by fewer troops. Qili Road suffered heavy casualties.
After Qu Xian’s war, Chen Qixian stopped for several days waiting for the news of the main force.
Su Haisheng led a great army to attack Hami Li from Shazhou and successfully conquered Hami Li, and then he divided his troops into two roads and attacked in Dushan direction and attacked in Hezhou direction.
At present, the army along the state has achieved great victory, and Su Haisheng personally led the army, which has broken through Yang Jili’s front and pointed to Yi Li.
Two armies go hand in hand, and the Uighur people in Xizhou have no resistance.
Further south, Jiang Liangping led the army to break through a small number of enemy resistance soldiers, and the biggest enemy along the way was the changeable natural environment and climate.
The hostile military forces of the Kingdom of Eastern Karahan are not a factor that can stop him.
Although the army has a better understanding of the western regions, it fully realized the harsh environment here when it really marched on this land.
It will be hot during the day, but it will become very cold at night, and there is drought and water shortage. At every stage of the army’s March, the goal is to go to a water source to get water. The water replenishment button is to solve the water replenishment problem, and he can even give way a little later.
This kind of environment is indeed a test, which makes Su Haisheng and other military generals feel that it is not easy for Han people and Tang people to conquer the western regions.
The harsh natural environment is worse than the enemies of these lands in the afterlife.
The first army will be wary of their attack and doubt that they can be very good at fighting in such a harsh environment. They will be very brave when they fight, but the army will unilaterally hang them.
The generals who fought in the name of the army generally had a feeling of "seeking defeat alone"
They think it’s a bit interesting to unilaterally hang the enemy all the way, and it’s hard to meet them who dare to attack directly. They are so stupid that they are driven away by the marching guards and rangers outside the army.
After hitting the rear, the army encountered resistance along the way, and the enemy finally caught one or two tongues. After interrogation, it was learned that everyone was afraid that the army Tianwei had fled to the west and ran too fast to catch up.
The so-called elite warriors in the East Karahan Kingdom can’t stop the army from advancing like paper.
So Su Haisheng and Jiang Liangping had inexplicably complicated emotions almost at the same time.
The army has strict training regulations. Before joining the army, it must undergo long-term training in accordance with the unified training model. After passing the examination, it can officially join the army. Every soldier in the army has mastered the skills of his subordinate arms.
This means that even recruits are not unified with the feudal army, so-called recruits can compete with them, and they have enough military skills to be different from ordinary people.
The strength of the army has reached the point where officers are required to command the army step by step to crush it and win. If everything is done according to the standards and norms in military textbooks, 95% of the war can be solved smoothly.
Five percent of the remaining wars need to give full play to the generals’ subjective initiative, which is the time to test the generals’ personal command art. However, this war of recovering the western regions seems to belong to the ninety-five percent of the educational war.
