Chapter 489: Divine Soldiers Descend from Heaven, Destroying the City! 【Tickets】

The Caspian Sea is long and narrow from north to south, and its shape is slightly like an "S". Although it is called a sea, it is actually the largest inland saltwater lake in the world.

Its shoreline is about [-] kilometers long, equivalent to about one-seventh of the total lake area in the world.

The lake is separated by many islands and shoals. The further north you go, the less water there is, and the south is a deep water area.

The Caspian Sea is bordered by Parthia, and from east to west, across its lateral lakes, it reaches the eastern border of Armenia.

Due to the special geographical environment, the mountains on both sides are undulating, and it is impossible for the Han army to cross the Caspian Sea on an expedition.

Therefore, although the coalition forces saw the importance of the Caspian Sea, they chose to deploy defenses in the area south of the Caspian Sea, in Parthia, to deal with the possible infiltration of the Han army.

However, the difficulty of crossing the Caspian Sea is relative.

The Han army under Zhao Anji's command has been formed for several years, but it is specially trained in a special environment.

They usually take Huashan as their climbing target, go in and out of the cliff, and want to pass through the mountains on both sides of the Caspian Sea, which is not difficult.

As early as the initial battle with Parthia and the excavation of the white stone dam, Huo Qubing began to prepare for the follow-up war.

Caspian also came into his sight at that time.

At this moment, as night fell, Huo Qubing led the crowd to the east bank of the Caspian Sea.

Accompanying him were Fu Luzhi, Yao Zhao, Xiao Qisheng, Gongsun Hong and Bai Nanyu.

In the night, there was a Han army of 500 people waiting here.

Last time, Zhao Anji, Zhao Puonu and others led the troops from the Caspian Sea to the south and entered Parthia.

At that time, Mithridates saw a Han army entering Parthia from the direction of the Caspian Sea through divine power.

They thought that the Han army chose that route because it was concealed enough and it was more convenient to sneak into Parthia.

In fact, it is not, but for Tibetan soldiers.

At that time, Zhao Anji's deputy general led a small team and hibernated on the east coast of the Caspian Sea, and began to investigate and arrange the surrounding area.

Some of the Han soldiers who practiced swimming hard were those who stayed around the Caspian Sea.

To explore nearby, people with good water skills are needed.

For as long as a month, it is difficult for ordinary troops to stay dormant in the wild where there is a lack of supplies for such a long period of time.

But the field personnel who have been trained for a long time can do it. They have done similar operations when they fought against the Western Huns.

Huo Qubing had just arrived at this time, but the vanguard had already been preparing in the Caspian Sea for a month.

"Lord Hou, there are many indigenous tribes living around the Caspian Sea."

Zhao Anji's adjutant, Zhuang Ding, is quite thin in stature, but he is as agile as an ape. He is good at climbing mountains and ridges. He was born as a hunter in his early years.

The Han army was in the wild, and the method of digging the flue without smoking came from him.

He was wearing a bunt, but he did not wear a military uniform for the convenience of movement. After joining Huo Qubing and others, he was responsible for leading the way.

"General Zhao has arrived at the designated area."

On the way, Zhuang Ding said.

The General Zhao he was talking about was Zhao Anji.

Gongsun Hong accompanied him, thinking to himself: the generals and schools under Da Sima's command fought against the Parthian coalition forces, but there has been no news of Zhao Anji in the past half a month, so he was sent here.

Gongsun Hong, like everyone else, didn't know the target of Huo Qubing's attack this time.

Only now is the real purpose of this march revealed step by step.

With sufficient preparations in advance, Zhuang Ding and others found a path in the undulating mountain environment that the Han cavalry could pass in a straight line.

The bright moon rises.

The Caspian Sea reflects the moonlight as far as the eye can see.

Nearly twenty small wooden boats were parked on the secluded shore of the lake, the largest being four or five feet long.

"Da Sima, it is very difficult to get ships here. After we surveyed the surrounding situation, we raided a local tribe, controlled them, and temporarily built four more ships by cutting wood, plus the original ships of their tribe.

When we left, we promised to return them to freedom. "

Zhuang Ding added: "We have done very cleanly. The total number of controlled tribes is less than 800. It is not difficult to control, and our whereabouts have not been exposed."

Huo Qubing gazed at the calm surface of the Caspian Sea and remained silent.

Gongsun Hong was a little surprised: "Could it be that Huo Hou wants to go to the opposite side of the Caspian Sea and use these small wooden boats?

How far is the other side?If these small boats are used to transport troops, it may take ten and a half months to transport troops. "

"This location is the area with the shortest lateral distance in the Caspian Sea. It takes about a day and a night to get to the other side. Fortunately, it is an inland lake and there are no strong winds and waves.

And we don't all go, just one trip.These small boats are full, and there are enough people on board, and the others have other tasks. "

Huo Qubing boarded the boat first, and the others followed.

The small fleet set sail in the night.It took a day and night, and on the next night, more than a hundred people were transported to the other side without wind or waves.

Zhuang Ding and others did not participate, and were responsible for leaving the aftermath and coping.

The three thousand troops led by Yao Zhao and Xiao Qisheng did not follow them across the Caspian Sea.

They will go south along the east coast of the Caspian Sea, preparing to enter the territory of Parthia and participate in the battle.

After taking a boat to the other side of the Caspian Sea, Gongsun Hong was stunned to see a special operations team led by Zhao Anji in a mountainous area beside the shore, with a total of [-] troops.

Gongsun Hong was stunned for a moment before he realized it.

The other school captains fought against the Parthians, and Zhao Anji disappeared for half a month, but he came here ahead of time, making transfers one after another. In half a month, more than 2000 people crossed the Caspian Sea. the process of.

This shows that Huo Qubing had a precise prediction of the current battle situation at least half a month ago, and made arrangements for the current battle in advance!
Starry sky.

The low hills on the west bank of the Caspian Sea are undulating, and continuing to the west is a grassland, and the terrain will gradually rise.

To everyone's expectation, Huo Qubing's target was not anywhere in Parthia, but Armenia.

When Parthia was short of food and was dragged into a full-scale war, Armenia was Parthia's staunchest supporter and backup.

Parthia and Han went to war, and Armenia provided full support in terms of soldiers, horses and food.

Armenia is rich in cattle and sheep, which provided Parthia with food and a large number of cattle and sheep after a food shortage, helping them tide over the difficulties.

Under such circumstances, if Armenia in the rear of Parthia collapsed, how big a blow would it have to them?
How much impact will it have on the third party who is watching the battle, Seliu, who is still hesitant?

The border of Armenia is high in the west and low in the east.

Its geographical location and role in this war are irreplaceable and vital.

If you penetrate Armenia, it is equivalent to stabbing Parthia in the waist.

Last time, the [-] troops Armenia sent to Parthia were defeated, and less than [-] people fled back.

This time they sent another [-] troops, and they had no reservations. The soldiers and horses left behind by their own family were no more than [-].

If the Armenian troops supporting Parthia knew that their old nest had been raided, they would definitely return to help as soon as possible.

If one side of the three-party alliance withdraws, it will naturally disperse, and the subsequent battle will be easier to fight.

At present, the focus of the enemy and ourselves are all in the territory of Parthia.

However, Huo Qubing led his troops out of Parthia and took Armenia as the first target.

But once Armenia is defeated, it will affect the entire battle situation.

In the night, Huo Qubing and Zhao Anji's soldiers who were waiting here seamlessly connected.

The whole army got on their horses and traveled westward in the wilderness, then turned south and went straight into the border of Armenia.

Immediately, Gong Sunhong said: "My old man has also thought of a raid strategy from the Caspian Sea to the south and into Parthia in the past few days.

But I didn't expect you, Huohou, to jump out of the whole Parthia, and your goal is Armenia.This is really a different perspective, a difference is a difference between heaven and earth. "

Huo Qubing couldn't help but laugh.

The whole army is running like lightning, riding like the wind.

Armenia is a small country with thousands of miles of fertile soil, but the road is very unfriendly to cavalry, and there are many mountains.

Fortunately, its territory is rich in animal husbandry, transportation is needed, and the roads are flat and easy to build.

Huo Qubing unfolded the miraculous marching method, covering more than [-] soldiers in the whole army, invisible and invisible.

The military strategies and plans within the sea of ​​​​knowledge are fully operational and continue to penetrate deep into its territory.

In the early morning, in front of the Han army, which had been running for hundreds of miles, a city with beautiful scenery appeared on the hillside.

There is a big river not far outside the city.

That was the river which was later called the Razdan River.

This is the most affluent area in Armenia, surrounded by fertile agricultural land and a distribution center for fruits and vegetables.

In later generations, this place will become the most famous ancient city in the Caucasus region, attracting many tourists.

"Breaking the city." Huo Qubing said.

Zhao Anji gave a low drink and waved his hands.

Then there was a team of special combat personnel under his command, using tricks such as crossing the sky and fishing in troubled waters, to sneak towards the city ahead.

Whether it is Parthia or Armenia, they would never have dreamed that a team would appear in the capital of Armenia from heaven.

Therefore, Armenia, which is completely unprepared for combat, is far from being well-defended.

The Han army under Zhao Anji's command is an expert wall climber per capita, and with the help of ink craftsmen's utensils, he successfully climbed to the top of the wall. With one operation, he cut his throat and severed his head, and dealt with the defenders at the top of the city.

With the cooperation of Ji Jian and other secret agents, they completed the above tasks quietly.

So much so that when the east gate of the city was opened, no one in the city noticed that a battle-hardened army had entered the city.

When the Han army entered the city, they dispersed in an orderly manner just like their daily drills, and went about their own business.

Huo Qubing and the others remained in a state of concealment covering the sky and the sea, as if a vague mist spread in the city and went straight to the central palace.

After approaching the palace, Zhao Anji personally led people to board the nearby buildings, shot out the kind of bronze ropes that had been used to sneak into the city many times, stepped on the giant longbow with his feet in the air, shot out the slings, and the other end was nailed to the buildings in the palace. On, forming a slideway, straight into the palace from the air.

At this point, it is no longer possible to continue to hide.

In the palace, the Armenian soldiers and horses guarding the palace quickly discovered the change.

The sound of warning was loud.

The sound of fighting suddenly broke out.

In just three or four breaths, the city was filled with the sounds of killing.

The Han army has been fully launched.

Huo Qubing's formation patterns swayed, and the Four Elephants Divine Weapon Talisman emerged, as big as a mountain, held by a giant bear, stood up from the formation patterns, and slammed on the main gate of the Armenian Palace.

The gate is made of giant wood mixed with metal beams, which is very strong, and many divine power defense formations are engraved on it.

But with Huo Qubing's bombardment, not only the gate burst, but also the surrounding palace walls collapsed, and earth and rocks flew away.

This was the purpose of Huo Qubing's visit.

The fact that Armenia can exist independently for a long time in a region with many powerful countries such as Parthia and Rome has some extraordinary background.

Huo Qubing came in person to suppress these details, break through the city quickly and ruthlessly, and ensure the smooth operation.

When the city walls and gates collapsed, the Han army followed Huo Qubing and rushed into the palace. All the soldiers fired their bows and crossbows quickly, suppressing the firepower, and the arrows rained like rain.

Huo Qubing let go of his military formation, discerned the details, and rode in one direction.

The Han troops on both sides were like wolves and tigers. Zhao Anji and Fu Luzhi acted as vanguards to clear the obstacles.

The group of people drove straight into the depths of the palace at a lightning speed.

Mitro, the ruler of Armenia, was awakened by a loud noise in the palace bedroom.

He sat up from the couch, stunned for a moment, and then heard the deafening shouts of killing, and the entire royal city seemed to be turned into a battlefield.

Behind him was a beautiful concubine who also woke up with a startled expression.

Mitro shouted and asked, "What happened?"

A court attendant walked in quickly outside the door, also with a look of astonishment and astonishment, and didn't understand the situation.

The accident happened too fast.

Mitro called the guards outside the dormitory to go out and investigate.

When he put on his clothes from the dormitory, got up and walked out, he saw the team of guards who had just gone out again, and they retreated in fear.

Mitro's face changed suddenly, because he heard the sound of horseshoes approaching rapidly, and Han troops poured into the courtyard outside his bedroom like a tide.

In the middle of the Han army column, a silver-armored and red-robed figure stood high on the horse.

In the night, that figure looked at him like two cold lightnings.

Mitro's scalp was numb, and the chill instantly soaked through his whole body.
