Battlefield of All Sides

Chapter 174 Attack on Legnica
It is not a good thing to march on the autumn moors.

And winter was coming soon. Although Borrell's goal was set, the weather blocked the attack on the way.

The 4 yuan army lay dormant in a city for a short time, and Li Mu also personally participated in the battle and saw the way the Yuan army fought.

The tall returning artillery played a very critical role in this kind of place. The height of the city wall in the west was even less than ten meters, and it collapsed instantly under the intensive attack, and the Yuan army took the city almost easily.

In order to survive the winter and save food, the Yuan army used more cruel methods here. Li Mu deliberately avoided it on the day of the massacre, but when he returned here, the bloody smell still made Li Mu feel uncomfortable.

"Qianhu, why are you so unhappy these days, why don't we go out and hunt wild animals?"

Daryl is a skilled guy, and he even got a good relationship with Li Mu in a short period of time, and even became Li Mu's follower, inseparable every day.

Li Mu was sitting at a corner of the city wall at the moment, looking at the snowy scenery outside the city. Although he had never seen the snowy scenery in foreign countries in winter, Li Mu felt no emotion at this moment, and even felt a little heavy.

I still remember that not long after capturing the city, the Yuan army drove a group of women and children out of the city. In winter, without the protection of the city, in the desolate wilderness, perhaps there is only one way to die.

With this in mind, Li Mu turned his head and asked Daryl

"Dalyl, why do you think we are marching west?"

Dalier was a little dazed, rolled his eyes, but said with a smile: "Of course it is because of Tian Khan's last wish, and it is also the will of the Great Khan. Conquering these weak and small nations shows my strength."

When Daryl said that, Li Mu sighed in his heart.

Ordinary soldiers almost think so, but the historical facts I have checked also show that the Western Expedition was done because some people were dissatisfied, and the ruler decided to subdue them and then stabilize the situation.

However, the situation has changed since then. Dayuan, who was born in the tribal system, has different minds and has many powerful tribes. Although everyone is under the jurisdiction of a big khan, many people have their own ideas.

This war of convincing others gradually turned into a war of expanding territory.

In other words, the nature of nomads is to wander around. They see more land, and then want more land.

The primal desire to conquer drives everything, but it also plunges the world into strife.

When Li Mu thinks of this level, he can't help but think whether the expansion of the territory is in the final analysis the result of inner desire.

But what does the system want me to do in the future by allowing me to experience this war?

Li Mu didn't communicate with Dalier again, and Dalier retreated knowingly, but at this time another person came up, Li Mu looked over, but stood up immediately.

The person who came was Subotai, the most admired general of Batu Khan.

Li Mu saluted, Subotai nodded, but also sat down next to him, put down his cloak, raised his head and looked at Li Mu, and said slowly.

"Battle, I heard that you can lead your subordinates to attack two hundred miles a day?"

Su Butai suddenly asked Li Mu, and Li Mu immediately looked up at the other party, then nodded in response.

"Yes, I don't know why the general came to see me?"

Subotai grinned when he heard what Li Mu said, and then looked at Li Mu with admiration and said.

"It's nothing, I just know that you are from Chiowun. I appreciate your ability, and the Great Khan has agreed to my request. From today on, you are under my command."

Li Mu raised his head, although he knew that the tough general in front of him had always wanted to bring his subordinates under his command, but he did not expect that Batu Khan would actually give it to him, but Li Mu suddenly thought of another thing.

"The general is going to take us out?"

Subotai laughed out loud when he heard this sentence, and the admiration in his eyes was even greater. It was obvious that Li Mu had guessed exactly what he was thinking.

"That's right, the heavy snow will melt in just a few days, and we can't stay here anymore. The horses have already lost their autumn fat eating hay. It's time to go out for a run and eat something good."

Li Mu looked at the other party with burning eyes, and Subotai also said immediately.

"Let's set off with me tomorrow, and we will find the way for the Great Khan."

After saying this, Su Butai got up and left, Li Mu responded to his back, Su Butai hummed, but suddenly remembered something, turned his head and said to Li Mu.

"Battelle, you seem to be hesitating a bit. Don't think about why you went west. What you should think about is that when we go back one day, you can bring something good for your wife and children."

After Su Butai said this, he left straight away, but Li Mu suddenly raised his head and looked at the back of the other party.

He heard his own question, and now he has given himself a conclusion.

This is a real predatory war, nothing to think about.

……

On the second day, Li Mu and 5000 vanguard troops left the small town, and according to the description of the captured locals, they headed for Borrell's capital.

Sure enough, Borreer also knew that a strange eastern army had appeared in his country. They began to organize sporadic troops to resist, but the troops that the small city lords and lords could gather were not enough for the Yuan army, so Li Mu's troops It was almost a destructive sweep, and wherever it went, there were mourners everywhere.

All of a sudden, there was turmoil in the land of Borrel, and the news of the arrival of the Tatars was everywhere, and the gates of the castles were closed tightly, as if hearing bad news.

The vanguard led by Subotai obviously didn't pay attention to these places, but ran towards Legnica under the report of the scouts.

Because there, there are already countless troops organized by the Borrells preparing to resist the Yuan army's attack.

On the other hand, there are only more than 5000 people on Li Mu's side, which seems to be very weak.

The pony under his crotch was running forward. Li Mu looked around. They were all his soldiers. Subotai was riding a horse at the front of the team. Tens of thousands of horses were running with great momentum.

"Qianhu, is the general ready to wait for Batu Khan to arrive and then prepare to attack?"

Daliel didn't know when he rode beside Li Mu, Li Mu turned his head to look at him, and then nodded.

Daryl frowned, and said worriedly.

"It seems that this time we won't be able to see the impact of the Iron Buddha again."

Daliel just said with emotion, and there were other hundred households calling him behind him, so he slowed down and gradually moved away from Li Mu.

However, Li Mu heard a word, Iron Buddha.

At this moment, Li Mu's heart was full of waves, and his curiosity about new things suddenly changed Mu's mood.

Tiefutu, the heavy cavalry of the Yuan Dynasty called a terrifying weapon by the Song people, was the last unit the Song people wanted to see on the battlefield. Unexpectedly, this time the Western Expedition, Batu would also bring this kind of troops.

Li Mu wanted to ask a few more questions about this wrong thing, but the horn sounded in front, and then the troops began to stop slowly.

It was the call to rest, and it was not yet noon, so it was clearly not just for lunch.

This is more likely because the enemy has been found ahead, and even the two sides are about to contact each other at a possible time.

Before contact, it is necessary to eat a full meal.

Li Mu and the people around him dismounted quickly, and everyone started to take out dry food, and ate together with the mare's milk that had been squeezed in advance, while Li Mu stepped forward.

The battle is about to start, and Subotai must have something to say to his officers.

Sure enough, at the front, several thousand households and hundreds of households surrounded Subotai. After listening to a scout, Subotai raised his head, glanced at Li Mu and others, and then said.

"This time, the Borrells actually gathered heavy cavalry, and there were quite a few of them."

"It seems that we have to discuss tactics in detail."
