Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 1074 Yelu Hanye's Ambition

Not long after Yelu Hanye led ten thousand cavalry after them, the snow gradually stopped. Although there was snow on the ground, the ground under the snow was as hard as iron. Although the cavalry dared not gallop at full speed, they could still run Fight above.

The cavalry of the Volunteer Legion are all wearing high-defense, light-weight steel plate armor and helmets. There are warm hoods under the helmets to keep out the cold, and gloves to keep warm and non-slip on their hands. In this state, they can march or fight. Good for maintaining stamina and condition.And the wolf guards obviously didn't have this condition. Just imagine, marching and fighting in such cold weather, and holding cold weapons in their hands, would their morale and combat power not be affected?

Yelu Hanye looked excited and excited. A few days ago, he led people to exterminate more than 8000 people in Dulamati.In the two years since he surrendered to Chengxiang Fu Kingdom, he was deliberately suppressed by Ye Chen. Watching other people being knighted one by one because of their great achievements, it was more uncomfortable than death for him, the former king of Liao.

In addition, although he was once a member of the royal family of the Liao Kingdom, he also grew up on a horse since he was a child. He has led the cavalry in countless battles in his life, and he has very rich combat experience. Combat theory, after integrating past experience, I have long thought of leading the cavalry on the battlefield to turn what I have in my heart into combat success.

Yelu Hanye knew that Ye Chen had already begun preparations to conquer the world, and now he was just waiting for an opportunity to send troops.His surrender to Chengxiang Fu Kingdom has already been tied to the same boat with him. If Ye Chen wants to unify the world, he will definitely destroy the Liao Kingdom. At that time, Yelu Hanye will definitely play a big role, but the premise is that he can be defeated by Ye Chen. Pay attention, after all, besides him, there is another Yelulu.

"Xiangfu Kingdom puts so much emphasis on military exploits, why can't he become a prince of Xiangfu Kingdom, or even be crowned king?" Yelu Hanye stretched out his hand to straighten his hood, thinking to himself.

"Reporting to the deputy head of the army, eight miles ahead, we found the cavalry behind the wolf guards!" Two scouts ran from the front and shouted directly without dismounting.

"How many people?" Yelu Hanye cheered up and shouted.

"About five thousand!" The scout said loudly.

"5000 troops, hahaha..." Yelu Hanye let out a long laugh, and said loudly, "Brothers! We have 1 troops against their 5000 troops. If we can't win completely, we'll wipe our necks and forget it."

The confidence of the deputy head of the army infected all the cavalry of the Volunteer Legion, and their morale suddenly became higher, and their confidence in victory became more and more abundant.

Not long after, Yelu Hanye saw the five thousand wolf guards. The five thousand wolf guards were divided into three charging squares, standing quietly on the snowfield, each of them was blue from the cold, but they were full of blood. With a murderous face, the morale is actually very high. After so many failures these days, and in this cold weather, after marching for half a day, they can still have such a high morale. It is worthy of the strong army of the Xizhou Uighur Kingdom.

"Change horses!" Yelu Hanye shouted.The cavalry of the Volunteer Legion has one man and two horses. After a long march, the cavalry charged to fight, and they had to change horses before charging.In fact, there was no need for Yelu Hanye's order, ten thousand cavalry had already held empty horses with one hand, and jumped up one after another. On top of the galloping horse, they transferred to another war horse that had just warmed up.

At the same time, the five thousand wolf guards on the opposite side also started to charge with strange screams.

.........

.........

At the same time that Yelu Hanye was fighting with the five thousand wolf guard cavalry, Shilang, who had already received the news through Costin, was leading more than 4000 cavalry towards Shazhou.When approaching Shazhou, Stone Wolf got the news from the spies of the Ministry of Security that Yelu Hanye was fighting with 5000 cavalry from the Wolf Guards.

Stone Wolf withdrew from the Uyghur Kingdom of Xizhou, partly because he had to besiege Baturmu in accordance with the previous plan, and partly because he was sent by the [-] troops sent by the Lion King of the Uighur Kingdom of Xizhou Those who were surrounded couldn't stay any longer, so they had to withdraw and fled in the direction of Shazhou.After all, Xizhou Uighur cavalry should not be underestimated, he had to be careful.

Shi Lang was born as a horse thief. Although he was bold in battle, daring to fight, courageous, and decisive, he was very sensitive to danger, and when he really felt danger, he was extremely cautious and cautious.Especially now that he is the commander of a brigade, as the number of troops under his command gradually increases, so does the pressure on him.You must know that if he makes a wrong decision, it will not be the life and death of him alone, but the life and death of 5000 people.

Stone Wolf originally went directly to Heifeng Canyon as planned, but after receiving the news that the battle between Yelu Hanye and the cavalry of the Five Thousand Wolf Guards was not far from where he was, he hesitated for a moment and led someone to kill him.

Regardless of whether the deputy head of the army, Yelu Hanye, would be unhappy because he came here to share the credit, Shi Lang decided to help.Because he knew that according to the plan, when the main force of Baturmu was besieged later, the more cavalry there were, the greater the possibility of annihilating Baturmu's entire army, not to mention that he did have his own selfishness, who would think that he had little credit Well, there are credits to grab, why should he miss it.As for Yelu Hanye, everyone knows that His Majesty has always been wary of the Liao people, he is afraid of a ball!

Sadir, the leader of the 5000 cavalry guards, no longer had the delusions he had at the beginning. The combat effectiveness of the cavalry of the Volunteer Legion in melee combat was not as bad as he had imagined before, on the contrary, it was stronger than he expected.After fighting for more than an hour, he had already lost one-third of his 1 troops, while the opponent's loss was only four to five hundred.What he didn't know was that Yelu Hanye and the two cavalry brigade commanders, Long Dingwu and Zhao Debao, were equally astonished by their combat power, especially their tenacious fighting will. The weapons and armor are far better than the opponent's. Although they have the upper hand, more than an hour has passed, and the opponent has not yet shown signs of defeat. If they want to kill and defeat the 5000 people in this way, although their losses will not be too much, they will still be defeated. Most of them will reach the level that makes them feel distressed.

However, at this moment, if Sadir felt something, he turned his head and looked, and a group of cavalry suddenly appeared behind them and rushed towards them. He almost fell off his horse directly. He knew that they would soon be finished.

Yelu Hanye and the two brigade commanders naturally also saw where the stone wolf belonged, but their reactions were different.Yelu Hanye snorted coldly, looking at the stone wolf who rushed up with an angry expression on his face, obviously annoyed at the stone wolf's grabbing credit.But Long Dingwu and Zhao Debao were overjoyed. In this way, if they defeated the enemy in front of them, the losses of their troops would be much less.

An hour later, except for a very small number of wolf guards who escaped, all the five thousand wolf guards were killed, and Sadir was also killed on the spot.The three cavalry brigades joined forces and galloped towards Heifeng Canyon according to the previous battle plan.

Awahanti is the leader of a Uyghur tribe near Ganzhou. Since years ago, Huang Dongqiu and Duanmu Zhongren have carried out mass killings in the Hexi Corridor, beheading all the men who are taller than wheels from several tribes who have secretly colluded with the Uyghur Kingdom in Xizhou. When he was killed, he was worried, because they also secretly provided some information about the Volunteer Legion to the Xizhou Uyghur Kingdom, but he did it extremely covertly, and he immediately sent more than 300 people who participated in it and knew about it. All the clansmen were executed, including even one of his younger brothers. In addition, they usually behaved extremely submissively when facing the government of Xiangfu Kingdom.So Huang Dongqiu led people to destroy several other tribes, and never did anything to them.However, Awahan was still a little worried, until he received Huang Dongqiu's order a few days ago, asking them to dispatch 3000 people to escort the grain and grass, he was completely relieved.Since Huang Dongqiu dared to let him escort the food and grass, he would no longer doubt their tribe.

Years ago, the Volunteer Legion took back Heifeng Pass from the Xizhou Uyghur Kingdom, and beheaded more than 1 Xizhou Uighur cavalry, and then Shazhou City was easily taken back these days. The famous Dulamati had an army of 1 He was overthrown, and even Dulamati himself was killed in battle. Immediately afterwards, Baturmu, the first general of the Uighur Kingdom in Naxi Prefecture, led the notorious Wolf Guards and suffered a big loss outside the city of Shazhou.

After these news spread to the Hexi Corridor, thinking about the massacre by Huang Dongqiu years ago, some thoughts of the Uighur tribe in Xiangfu Kingdom in the Hexi Corridor gradually dispelled.However, Awahanti has always doubted the authenticity of these news. This time, he has the opportunity to escort the volunteer army. He is going to take the opportunity to find out the real situation. If he is not an opponent of the Volunteer Legion, then for the survival of the tribe, some of his ideas can only be dispelled or temporarily hidden deep in his heart.

However, walking along this road was too slow, especially when there was a sudden snowstorm a few days ago, the leading Han general asked them to hide in a place to avoid the snowstorm for several days, and waited until the snowstorm stopped today before taking them with them. So they continue to move forward to Shazhou.And walking halfway, Nahan will suddenly receive a military report, and then tell them to escort the grain and grass all the way to Shazhou, and Nahan will turn around and go back with his 500 troops.

"Hmph! These cunning Xiangfu people, it's already at this time, do you still want to test our tribe? Don't think I don't know that the bird named Haidongqing above my head is used to spy on us." Ava Hanti raised his head and glanced at the circling black figure in the sky, and couldn't help thinking to himself.

Thinking of this, Awahanti shouted: "Cheer up, speed up, get out of the Black Peak Canyon early, send the grain and grass to Shazhou, and go back to the government to get the grain. The women and children at home are all waiting to eat... ..."

Before Awahanti finished speaking, he suddenly heard the news that a large group of cavalry was coming, and then he saw a group of cavalry rushing in at the entrance of the Black Peak Canyon a few miles ahead, and there was a steady stream of cavalry behind him.
