Emperor Liu Hong

Although the Han army is advancing towards Wulei, its speed has dropped significantly.After all, the Han army came to destroy the country this time, and wanted to completely occupy the territory of the 36 countries in the Western Regions.Therefore, even if those people from the Western Regions had abandoned their cities and fled, the Han army would have to clean up those cities.Although this cleanup is not difficult, it will take time anyway, so those who rushed to Wu Lei's place should be given enough time to prepare for the ambush.

Although Li Ying had expected these things a long time ago, he was powerless to change them.After all, no matter how hard he tried to urge the Han army to advance, the distance between the two sides was so far, and there were so many things to do, the Han army could not be much faster.Therefore, he could only send more scouts to find out the enemy's situation as much as possible.

With this rare time, those countries dare not neglect, all the traps and ambushes they can use, they have all been fiddled with.

"Ma De, in such a dangerous place, we have created a trap and an ambush for news. The rolling logs, stones, kerosene and so on on the cliff are definitely enough for those Han soldiers to drink a pot!"

"Yes, yes, if such an ambush can't stop the Han army, then it's really unreasonable!"

Seeing the fruits of their labor these days, the leaders of those countries in the Western Regions were very satisfied.Now we are waiting for the arrival of the Han army, so that we can give them a head-on blow.

It didn't take long for those people from the Western Regions to prepare in Wulei, and they were sent to Li Ying and Liu Fu by scouts.The two knew that the ambush planned by so many people from the Western Regions must not be simple.Coupled with the rapid march, it was impossible to achieve any effect. Therefore, Li Ying and Liu Fu changed their strategy and began to fight steadily.In this way, although it does not help to break the ambush.However, the speed of marching was greatly reduced, but the energy of their soldiers was completely preserved.

The reduction in marching speed gave the people of the Western Regions more time to prepare for an ambush.But in this way, it also allowed the scouts of the Han army to learn more about the ambushes prepared by those people from the Western Regions.

Seeing the news from the scouts, Li Ying and Liu Fu broke out in cold sweat, "My god, are these people from the Western Regions really ruthless? Look at them. They want to drive us away!"

"Yeah, there are so many vicious ambushes, if we don't prepare to rush in directly, then our fate is really hard to say!"

But while they were afraid, the two were also grateful for a while.After all, the current Han army.It is not the former Han army.The current Han army, navy, land and air force is complete, unless the Han army does not know about those ambushes.otherwise.No matter how powerful the ambushes of the countries in the Western Regions are, as long as the Han army releases airships and hot air balloons, those ambushes can be easily destroyed.

"Okay, now that we know the trump cards of those people from the Western Regions, let's make a good plan and try to wipe them all out in one battle!"

Li Ying and Liu Fu were discussing here.Huang Gai and Yan Yan prepared all the supplies and headed towards Wulei with their mercenary regiment.And it wasn't just the mercenary group of the two of them who went there this time.Many other mercenary regiments and mercenaries also embarked on the road to Wulei, and they wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make a big contribution and make a fortune.

The countries in the Western Regions only guarded against the attack of the Han army in the east, but they all ignored the west.Now that a large number of mercenaries came to them, they were a little dumbfounded.

"Made, why is there a Han army in the west? We have no defense in the west at all, and they can't easily attack the city!" Listening to King Qule's words, other kings were also worried, "Yes, the west side How come there is still the Han army, how can we resist the front and back attacks?!"

"Kings, don't worry too much. The Han army coming from the west will eventually know their details." After hearing what these kings said, General Qiuci, who was in charge of commanding the troops to resist the Han army this time, said, "The Han army coming from the west The army is not the official army of the big man, they are just mercenaries. Now they come here, most likely because they want to take advantage of it. They are not as stubborn as the official army. As long as we concentrate our forces and give them a head-on blow , Get rid of their fluke mentality, and they will definitely retreat."

These kings have also heard a lot about mercenaries.Although they didn't think those mercenaries would be dismissed so easily, but at this point, they could only do as General Qiuci said.

With the permission of these kings, General Qiuci led his troops to deal with the mercenaries.He believed that those mercenaries were just grassroots teams, and it was okay to deal with unarmed civilians. Compared with a regular army like his, they would definitely be vulnerable.Therefore, General Qiuci, who had this kind of thinking, didn't need to plan or lay an ambush, and went to intercept those mercenaries in a bright light.

A single mercenary has no burden, and the speed of travel must be faster than a mercenary regiment with a large amount of luggage.Therefore, General Qiuci cleared up a few waves of individual mercenaries, and he became more determined in his mind.

"These mercenaries of the Han army are completely vulnerable. Let's divide our troops into three groups. In the future, all three roads of Wulei will be blocked. We will hurry up and clean up those mercenaries who came to pick up cheap, so we can go back to deal with the regular Han army. !"

After hearing the words of General Qiuci, his subordinates immediately divided into three teams to intercept those mercenaries.

Due to the small number of individual mercenaries, they are not opponents of the Western Region Army, but those mercenary regiments are different.Especially those large mercenary regiments not only have a large number of people, but also have advanced weapons.You must know that the continuous crossbow is only their basic configuration, like old-fashioned muskets, they are also equipped with a lot.For example, the mercenary regiment of Huang Zhong and Yan Yan has a lot of grenades and explosives, which are not much worse than the regular army before.Therefore, when these mercenary groups arrived, they directly launched a tough battle with those troops from the Western Regions.

The mercenaries had advanced weapons, and the Western Region Army had a large number of people, so the two sides fought directly.And at this time, the large troops of the Han army came to Wulei City.

"Commander Li, we're at the enemy's ambush ahead, let's release the airship and hot air balloon?!"

"Okay, just do as Commander Liu said, let's launch the airship!"

How to break these ambushes, Li Ying and Liu Fu have long had a comprehensive plan.So, with an order from the two, the airship and hot air balloon that had been prepared a long time ago flew towards those ambushes.

"Look, the Han army is flying over from the sky!" Looking at the airships and hot air balloons all over the sky, the ambush soldiers in the Western Regions were all dumbfounded. "Quick, go to the city to report, and ask the city to send reinforcements!"

As soon as the reporter left, the airships and hot air balloons of the Han army flew over the heads of those ambushes.Those Han soldiers didn't know how to be polite. When they got to the top of their heads, explosives, grenades, etc. were thrown from the sky as if they didn't want money.

The natives of the Western Regions have never seen this kind of fighting style before. Once they are bombed, they will cry for their parents and mothers.Especially the explosive kits ignited the fire oil they prepared. Not only did these things fail to deal with the Han army, but they became their reminders.

The kings in the city immediately heard the bombing by the Han army. Then, when the messengers came, they were dumbfounded when they figured out the situation.They thought that the ambush in the east would definitely stop the Han army. Therefore, except for a small number of troops in an ambush in the east and a small group of guards in the city, the rest of the army, in order to wipe out those mercenaries as soon as possible, have all been killed by the Kucha army. The general took it away.

"What can we do? The Han army broke through our carefully prepared ambush so easily. Then they will surely enter the city in a short time!" At this moment, the kings were all scared, and they wanted to I know that once the Han army attacked the city, they would all be finished, "Quick, quick, let the general come back to help!"

Although the movers ran out, how could the Han army give them this time.Those airships and hot air balloons flew towards Wulei City immediately after bombing the ambushes.

"No, we can't stay in this city. The firearms of the Han army are powerful. If we stay in the city, we will definitely be killed by those firearms!"

Thinking of this, the kings didn't dare to hesitate for a moment, and immediately took people out of the city to find that General Qiuci.

Li Ying, Liu Fu and the others discussed that they wanted to drive those kings out of the city so that they could arrest them more easily.Therefore, when they saw those kings coming out of the city, they blew up indiscriminately and chased west.They planned to rush to the front of the Western Regions Army and block them all, so as to have a back and forth attack with the army.But when they came after them, they didn't need to bother anymore, those mercenaries had already completed the task for them.

Seeing the regular army coming, the mercenaries were all excited, and attacked the Western Region army like crazy.Because they knew very well that if they didn't take advantage of this time to make contributions to Duo Lidian, they would basically have nothing to do when the big troops arrived.

Originally, they were evenly matched, but now that the airships in the sky threatened them and the mercenaries showed their power, those Western Region troops would be at a disadvantage.

Seeing this situation, the general Qiuci could only push back with his troops. In this way, the Western Regions Army, which was originally divided into three teams, gathered into one pile.At this time, the large troops of the Han army also rushed up.

Just dealing with those mercenaries, the Western Regions Army is already powerless.Now that the regular army of the Han army has rushed up, they are even more irresistible.Therefore, it didn't take long for the Han army to completely defeat the Western Regions army.

There are mercenaries in the front, the Han army in the back, and airships and hot air balloons in the sky. Those Western Region troops have no place to run if they want to.In order to save their lives, they had no choice but to surrender.In this way, the Han army has completely won the 36 countries in the Western Regions.
