Chapter 575: Huo Qubing

   A group of cavalrymen descended south from the Altai Mountains. The armors of all the cavalrymen were stained with blood and there were traces of swords. The battle flag of the Western Regions Protected House was damaged, and everyone looked tired.

Huo Qubing’s armor is covered with spider-web cracks.

Huo Qubing’s deputy Zhao Ponu suffered more serious injuries, with gauze wrapped around his shoulders, stained with blood.

Anxi Army Tang general Li Siye holds Mo Dao, behind him is a team of elite Datang Mo Dao team.

The Mo Knife Team is a high-ranking heavy infantry, the elite of the Datang Rest Protectorate, which has a restraining effect on the cavalry.

Li Siye’s Modao team had about 2,000 people. After the battle in the Altai Mountains, only 700 people were left.

Wang Xuance, a civil servant who served as Huo An’s master book, assisted Huo Qubing, Zhao Ponu, Li Siye and others to retreat as a military adviser to Huo Qubing, Zhao Ponu, Li Siye and others.

Next to Wang Xuance was a group of Tubo cavalry. This was the cavalry that Huo An asked the lord of Tubo to recruit in Tubo.

Wang Xuance, a diplomat of the Tang Dynasty, deployed Tubo and Nibhara soldiers to defeat the Tianzhu Kingdom in India. His abilities are somewhat similar to the "Tian Khan" and have a strengthening effect on the servants.

The main ability of   Tian Khan’s characteristics is not to strengthen the servant army, but to enhance the loyalty of the servant army, and Wang Xuance's ability is mainly to strengthen the servant army, so in terms of the strengthening effect, Wang Xuance's ability to strengthen the servant army is better.

The Huo Qubing Corps fought with Subutai for a long time, dragged Subutai, learned that Luntai was besieged, and continued to fight Subutai, which was of little significance, so returned to the division to support Luntai.

In this way, it is quite troublesome for them to avoid the eyes and ears of speeding.

Tan Ma Chi has a war eagle. Among them, there is a small group of red cavalry in Subutai. Wang Xuance, Huo Qubing and others want to get rid of Subutai. This is not easy, and it will be noticed by the war eagles.

Wang Xuance and the generals made a roundabout circle in the Junggar Basin, coming out day and night, and then they got rid of the speed of chasing them.

"I hope Master Duhu is safe and sound."

Wang Xuance shot down the sand on his shirt.

He hasn't taken a break for half a month, his armor, battle robe, and scabbard are all grit attached to it.

Wang Xuance's eyes were bloodshot.

It is too difficult to face the forces of the Mongol Empire and the two khanates only relying on the strength of the Western Regions Protector House.

The place where the Wokotai Khanate and the Chagatai Khanate descended was within Huo’an’s sphere of influence. Some tribes and kingdoms were loyal to the two khanates, which invisibly weakened Huo’an’s power. For Huoan , Quite a disadvantage.

"Oh..."

Wang Xuance leaned against a sand dune because he couldn't withstand the long battle, vomiting violently.

Huo Qubing, Zhao Ponu, Li Siye and other generals waited patiently for this master.

As a civil official, Wang Xuance fought with the legion and fought with Subutai repeatedly. Among all civil servants, it was already quite rare.

Wang Xuance is somewhat similar to Chen Qingzhi, Yu Yunwen and others. Although he does not have the power of a general, he has the ability to command soldiers and horses, which is also a miracle...

Wang Xuance sat on the ground and rested for a while. After getting over, he said to Huo Qubing and other generals in the Western Regions Protector's Mansion: "If I want to go back to the Shi Luntai and help the Duhu Master to clear the siege, I can pass through Che Shi Nation. Che Shi Nation should pay back. In the hands of the lady."

"We can also go to the Chashi Nation for supplies and obtain food, water, arrows, swords, and armor. The arrows in our quiver have been exhausted, the sword has been rolled, the armor has been broken, and the horse has fallen."

"Miss can really guard the country of Che Shiguo?"

Huo Qubing and other generals in the Western Regions Protectorate directly addressed Huo Qing as the eldest lady. As the sister of the Most Protected Huo An, she does have a special status in the Western Regions Protectorate.

It’s just that Huo Qing’s abilities are relatively average. Huo Qubing doesn’t think that Huo Qing can defend the Chess State under the offensive of the Mongol Empire, unless...

"Unless reinforcements in the pass will be able to defend the Cheshi Nation. If the princes in the pass have the foresight, they will not continue to engage in infighting... At least, the princes in the north will not fight inwardly. They face the greatest pressure. The red war eagle will catch up again."

Wang Xuance was a little uneasy.

Huo Qubing Army is located in the Junggar Basin, and there may be enemies on all sides. The influence of the Western Regions Duhu Mansion in the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains is weakened.

When Wang Xuance, Huo Qubing and others left, the horse-detecting red cavalry appeared to check the surrounding horseshoe prints and footsteps of the infantry.

One of the Four Mastiffs, Subutai, rode a war horse and rushed to the direction of Che Shiguo: "Huo Qubing and others must pass Che Shiguo and Yanqi if they want to return to Luntai. The Great Khan has already occupied Yanqi, and Luntai has been lost. Wei. I don’t know if Da Khan has taken the Che Shi Nation. Che Shi Nation does not have a teleportation formation, so it should not be anxious to win."

Suzoutai fought with Huo Qubing's army in the wild for many days. He hadn't noticed that Che Shi Nation had opened the teleportation array. Temujin's offensive against Che Shi Nation was defeated.

In the current situation, Subutai is at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and Tiemuzhen, Wokuotai, and Yelu Dashi are at the southern foot of the Tianshan Mountains. The Han army controls the Cheshi Nation, which is a key area, and receives supplies from within the pass.

Originally, Temujin, Subutai and others thought that the Chashi Nation did not have a teleportation array, so they concentrated their forces to besieged Luntai, captured Yanqi and other places, and then Temujin and Subutai encircled the Chashi Nation, which could be easily occupied.

The royal city of Cheshi Nation was directly upgraded from a medium-sized city to a large city. The teleportation array was opened, and the expeditionary army of the Han Empire arrived, so that Temujin and Sutai were caught off guard.

Now the forces of the two sides are staggered, and the expeditionary forces of the Han Empire separated Temujin and Subutai's forces.

"Go, attack the country of Chess!"

The speed is not Taiwan still in accordance with the plan, marching towards the country of Cheshi.

According to the agreement with Temujin, the two sides will train in the car division.

……

In Cheshi Guojiaohe City (Wangcheng), the arriving Qin Liangyu held a long spear and fought with Hua Mulan on the school grounds. The two men each used a red tasseled spear with the blade cut off, fighting for hundreds of rounds, sweating profusely. Win or lose.

The expeditionary force of the Han Empire is still being assembled. After everyone repelled Temujin, Temujin could not cut off the teleportation formation of the Cheshi Nation, and could only retreat to Yanqi Nation for rest.

Tiemuzhen suffered a great loss. Yu Xue Jun lost more than a thousand people, Tan Ma Chi, Zhongxiao Army, and Heli Army lost thousands, and the remaining cavalry lost tens of thousands.

These cavalry are not servants, but Temujin’s troops in Mobei, and every time a cavalry is lost, Temujin cannot bear it.

Especially Bolhu, the four great general Xue, who was really kind to Temu, but died unfavorably. Yu Xue Jun can also be recruited, but the generals of Yu Xue Jun cannot be recruited. There is only one Bolhu.

Temujin licked his wound like a wounded wolf.

"Le Yi, the last general, met the lord."

Le Yi brought Le Jin and Zhou Cang to come, and Ju Yi once again joined the Le Yi Army to strengthen the siege ability of Le Yi's offensive Army.

Le Yi Legion, finally here!

With Le Yi's ability, it is enough to stand alone, and its offensive army is also quite capable of trapping.

Cao Ren and the petted Iron Wall Legion arrived later.

Five hundred thousand expeditionary forces are assembled.

Some soldiers and horses were lost due to the battle of Cheshiguo, and the actual force was less than 500,000.

In addition, Chutian considered leaving some of his troops in the Chedi Nation to protect the teleportation formation while reducing the pressure on supplies.

The Iron Wall Corps is responsible for staying behind the Chess Country.

"A cavalry came from the north!"

Che Shiguo fell into panic again after repelling Temujin.

Many defenders boarded the city wall, nervously preparing to meet the cavalry attacking from the north.

Chutian was also on the city wall, he could see the north of Cheshi Nation, and indeed a cavalry arrived.

"No, it's the banner of our Western Regions Protectorate! It should be Huo Qubing's cavalry!"

Huo Qing recognized the flag of the Western Regions Protectorate at a glance, and everyone felt relieved.

"Huo Qu Bing..."

Chutian knew that Huo An got Huo Qubing after the Battle of Mobei. Later, Huo Qubing confronted Subutai for a long time in the Western Regions, and rarely appeared.

If it were not for Huo Qubing to block Subutai's offensive, perhaps the situation in the Western Regions Protector House would be even more critical than it is now.

Just in case, the gate of Cheshi Nation was still closed.

Huo Qubing, Wang Xuance, Zhao Ponu, Li Siye and other generals came to the city, and no one had a complete armor.

"This is the flag of the princes in the pass. It seems that not only has the Cheshi Nation not fallen, but our reinforcements have already arrived."

Wang Xuance noticed the flags on the walls of Cheshi Nation. In addition to the flags of the Western Regions, there were also different flags from the princes in the Guan.

"With these reinforcements, we can defeat the enemies who enter the Western Regions Protectorate."

Huo Qubing entered the King City of Cheshi with a group of soldiers from the Protectorate of the Western Regions.

When they saw Huo Qing, they reported the loss to him: “A total of 100,000 attacked the Altai Mountains, of which 40,000 were killed, 20,000 were separated on the way, and 40,000 survived.”

"Only 40,000 people came back..."

Huo Qing can imagine how tragic the battle against the Altai Mountains was.

In order to help Huo An contain the Speedstop Army stationed in the Altai Mountains, Huo Qubing and others paid a huge price, killing 40% and fleeing 20%.

"People prepare forage and camp."

Huo Qing immediately arranged for Huo Qubing's surviving group of surviving soldiers from the Western Regions Protectorate to receive the dust.

The military force of the Western Regions’ Protectorate is also relatively strong, about 300,000 to 400,000, some of which are used to guard various places. After the war with the Mongol Empire and the two Great Khanates, the number of casualties of the Western Regions’ Protectorate Legion has risen sharply. It is estimated that there are only more than 100,000 main forces left.

Chutian saw Huo Qubing. Huo Qubing should be in his early twenties at this time. He was considered a young general.

Huo Qubing has gone through the days of battle with Subutai. Not only is he not exhausted, but he is more majestic and heroic. He has the shadow of a generation of famous generals.

Huo Qubing's lieutenant was Zhao Ponu, a military commander who was quite brave.

Except for Huo Qubing and Zhao Ponu, a burly military commander with a sword in his hand stands. His bronze upper body is scarred and he has gone through the battle and survived the disaster.

A relatively thin literati Xiang Chutian and other princes from the Guan Zuoyi: "This time to rescue Luntai City, we have to rely on all the adults. Under Wang Xuance, I am willing to help you all."

Wang Xuance placed himself in an auxiliary position, and elevated the position of Chu Tian and other princes, so as not to overwhelm the guests, let the princes in the pass actively save Luntai City.

"With the strength of the Protector of the Western Regions, you can make up 400,000 troops and expedition to Luntai."

Chutian lost a batch of soldiers and horses in the battle with Temuzhen, and left a portion of his troops to defend the Cheshi Nation. Originally, he was worried that his troops would not be enough, but Huo Qubing and others' 40,000 soldiers and horses came to meet, so the troops could be supplemented. .

Huo Qubing, a cavalry-based force, is not an ordinary force, but an elite division that has battled Subutai for a long time, and has experienced many battles.

Huo Qubing is surrounded by a small team of Tier 9 hussars, and each cavalry is a force of killing.

Li Siye, Zhao Ponu and others are also very conspicuous.

Especially Wang Xuance, as a civil servant, even mixed up with Huo Qubing, Li Siye and others, and gained the trust of Huo Qubing and others.

"So, everyone, let's prepare to enter Luntai City."

The first batch of the Han Empire Expeditionary Army has been prepared, all soldiers and horses are ready to go, and the princes of the Han Empire are sure to rescue Luntai City.

The defenders in Luntai City are also a force that cannot be underestimated. Although Huo An is defeated, the entire army has not been completely wiped out.

If it weren't for the Yelu Dashi who made suggestions around Wo Kuotai, perhaps Huo An could lead his cavalry back to Luntai City safely after burning Yemili City.

"Please give us three days for replenishment."

Wang Xuance thinks that the 40,000 people in the Western Regions Protectorate are too exhausted, all armaments are exhausted, and they are in urgent need of supplies.

The expedition to the wheel station is scheduled for three days.

The Subutai Legion pursued Huo Qubing and others to the Cheshi Nation and broke through a small town in the Cheshi Nation to obtain supplies. Only then did they discover that the Cheshi Nation was still under the control of the Western Regions Protector House, and Tie Mu Zhen's attack on the Western Regions Protector House failed.

"The expeditionary force of the Han Empire has arrived in the Cheshi Nation... Damn, the Cheshi Nation has opened the teleportation array. As a result, the supply pressure of the Han Empire is much smaller!"

quickly did not get off the stage, looking towards Jiaohe City, hesitating.

The fact that Che Shiguo opened the teleportation formation was indeed beyond his expectation.

Originally, Subutai and Temujin agreed to capture the Chess Kingdom easily. However, Che Shiguo opened the teleportation array, completely disrupting their deployment.

A Mongolian general said to Shubutai: "Father, should we attack Cheshi Nation and avenge the Khan?"

"Even if the Great Khan attacked the Cheshi Nation himself, it would end in failure. The current Cheshi Nation may have hundreds of thousands of Han troops, so..."

I don’t know how terrible Tiemu really is, Xue Jun.

Even if Temujin, who possesses Yu Xuejun, Zhongxiaojun, and Tan Ma Chi, all loses, the probability of success is also extremely small if he does not advance to attack.

"Then what shall we do?"

"Wu Liang Hetai, what is our advantage?"

"We can rush long distances and sweep the villages and towns along the way, without the difficulty of the Han army."

"So we have to follow the expeditionary army of the Han Empire. They will gather troops in Cheshi Nation, and they will definitely go to rescue Luntai City. Then it will be our chance. We will rest in Cheshi Nation for the time being."

'S eyes are deep, and he is ready to attack the expeditionary army from the rear.
