Chapter 89 Encirclement and reinforcements

The Dasha army was quickly assembled, and in order to quickly support Fort Salvador, they decided to send out only cavalry units.

Most of the Dasha are nomadic people, and many of their warriors are cavalrymen. They can serve as infantry, archers, and cavalrymen.

Only half of the troops in Dasha are infantry and archers, and the proportion of cavalry in the entire army is the second highest in the continent. As for the first place, of course it is Gatu, who is a universal cavalry!

A cavalry unit of more than 900 people set out. The scene was spectacular with thousands of horses galloping.

They work non-stop, and every Dasha cavalryman has learned the ability to eat and drink on horseback. Of course, if you tell me you need to go to the toilet, I will just ignore what I said.

They were moving very fast and had already crossed most of the jungle. All they had to do was cross the other side and they would reach Fort Salvador.

The trails in the dense jungle are not easy to walk on because it is mostly hilly areas with undulating terrain.

"Report, the enemy troops have arrived at Fort Salvadore and are assembling siege equipment."

"Tell the entire army to speed up. We have reached the foot of the mountain. As long as we go up, we will reach Fort Salvador!"

Just as the messenger was about to issue the order after receiving Hamid's order, he found countless imperial soldiers rushing out of the bushes with spears in their hands!

"ambush!"

Countless grass balls were set on fire and pushed down from the hillside, and horns sounded. Imperial soldiers were everywhere in the mountains. They formed thick spear phalanxes with spears in hand, and with the support of the archers on the opposite side, they divided the cavalry units of the Dasha army into countless sections.

Hamid was anxious and angry, and kept asking his men to blow the horn in an attempt to gather the chaotic army.

But it was of no use. Faced with the massive three-meter-long spears, any cavalry unit had to dodge. Hamid could only watch as countless Dasha men were stabbed to death by spears and their horses were knocked down.

The army was defeated!

"Hamid, we should leave, otherwise we will be left here too! We still have people, there are still more than 700 people in Leyla Fortress, we can still hold on and wait for the support of the Khan!"

"But! But! These are more than 900 of our men!" Hamid burst into tears.

Mansur sighed, signaled to several nobles around him, and forced Hamid to leave.

........

It was an unprecedented rout; more than half of the cavalry unit of more than 900 people were killed or wounded, and the remaining half were taken prisoner. The empire obtained countless horses and equipment.

Zhao Yuanlang nodded with satisfaction. Encircling a point and attacking its reinforcements was a really good military strategy. Three legions defeated more than two legions of cavalry. Cool!

The army marched north, and the morale of the guards at Fort Salvadore was completely lost when they received the news of Hamid's defeat. After Zhao Yuanlang's attack in less than an hour, they suffered heavy casualties. In the end, the remaining more than 300 people could only raise the white flag and surrender to Zhao Yuanlang.

Without stopping, Zhao Yuanlang left behind two battalions of troops and led his army towards Fortress Lela.

Fortress Lela, with plains on two sides, a jungle on one side, and the sea on the other, is the empire's first line of defense against Dasha, and it is also the only way for Dasha to attack the imperial capital.

At this moment, the densely packed camps outside the city surrounded the Salvador Castle, and Hamid anxiously looked at the imperial camp outside from the top of the city.

He watched helplessly as countless Dasha men were beaten by the imperial soldiers to build siege weapons, and those who dared to resist were killed in groups, which made him tear his eyes out.

Mansurbai had already started crying, and he could only pat Mansur's shoulder weakly. It was their mistake that harmed their people.

For three consecutive days, the Empire did not attack, but only besieged them without attacking. The Dasha nobles who were originally a little worried were slightly relieved. It seemed that the Empire also knew that it was not easy to capture this fortress, and wanted to besiege them until they ran out of ammunition and food.

What a pity! The idiots of the empire! They didn't know that the Khan, Caliph Tahir and Caliph Bahaman had already led four legions of troops towards this side. In just one day, it would be the death of these imperial dogs.

Another day passed, and the Khan's army had not arrived yet, which made everyone feel a little strange. However, they did not think too much about it. After all, there might be a little time error, and the Khan's army might have been delayed.

But the Khan's army did not arrive until the next morning, and the nobles fell into panic because the food could only last for less than three days. Was the Khan being held back?

Disputes began to arise among the nobles. Some of them advocated fighting their way out and fleeing the city, while others advocated holding on and waiting for reinforcements from the Khan.

There was still no movement in the imperial camp outside the fortress, except that more soldiers were training.

Finally, at dusk, countless imperial soldiers marched over from Dasha, blowing melodious trumpets.

The Dasha nobles in the castle hurriedly climbed up the city wall, and they saw a scene that made them despair: Caliph Tahir, Caliph Bahaman, Chief Jahangir, Chief Farhad, General Timur and others were neatly trapped in a row and walked in front of the team.

Something happened to the Khan! The army that came to help was defeated.

That's right, it was another siege. Zhao Yuanlang had long expected that Hamid would ask for help, and he had already led the reinforcements of Rismukh and others, a total of six legions of soldiers ambushed in the hilly area of ​​Shihbasha. After Bahad Khan led the reinforcements in, he directly ordered his spearmen to form a Macedonian phalanx to divide the army, and used the cavalry siege and closing tactics to annihilate Bahad Khan's army in the Shihbasha area.

Bahad Khan escaped with the fierce battle between the Gray Wolf Guards led by Attila and the Horse Tamer Sultan and the illegal Dasha chiefs.

But Tahir and Bahaman were in trouble. Bahad Khan was able to escape because he kept a low profile and mixed in with the cavalry. However, Tahir and his nobles were full of vigor and vitality. They wore cloaks and fancy armors, and were regarded as important targets by Zhao Yuanlang.

As for the soldiers outside the city, to be honest, there are less than two legions of people, and most of the rest are scarecrows. Hahahaha, the scarecrow strategy works every time.

After a week of rest, Zhao Yuanlang left behind a legion, with Agrael V as the temporary commander. He led his Holy Griffin Knights and more than two legions of support from the Empire to completely besiege the Lera Fortress.

Zhao Yuanlang had led his four legions towards the heart of Dasha. On the first day, the Shihbasha and Turda fortress lines were breached, and on the second day the army broke through the Holy War Fortress.

On the third day, after Tahir was hit in the thigh by a sword, his trembling voice made the guards of Sinjar lay down their weapons, and Zhao Yuanlang led the army to successfully enter Sinjar. All the towns in the north of Dasha were lost.

It was so tragic, so tragic. Hamid and his men in the Leila Fortress were soon out of ammunition and food, and the food could only last less than a day.

Bahad Khan, who had fled back to Toba, spat out a mouthful of blood when he learned that the entire northern border had been lost. When he learned that Hamid and his men would soon be defeated, he had to start drafting a peace treaty.

Two days later, Zhao Yuanlang in New Gal looked at the peace treaty and 100,000 silver coins submitted by Bahad Khan, and readily signed his name on the peace treaty.

By the time Zhao Yuanlang's messenger arrived at the Leila Fortress, Hamid, who was defending the Leila Fortress and had failed four times, had already begun killing their horses.

In the customs of the Dasha, horses are their brothers and their partners. After the superiors issued the order to kill the horses, many Dasha warriors sat in silence at the gate of the castle with tears in their eyes and refused to carry out the order.

"Long live the empire!" Generals such as Rismuk shouted wildly as they watched Hamid leading the powerless Dasha warriors away.
