Lord of Riders

"Yes, what the old man said," Turuk said repeatedly

Count Tuoju didn't reply, so he instructed the army to move on. Turuk and his soldiers stopped fleeing, and returned to the Turbuk area with the Earl of Drag.

Although Turbuk Castle was occupied by Shao Yu, Shao Yu did not immediately hold a celebration party at Turbuk Castle. The war had just begun. Shao Yu placed the prisoners and arranged the infantry in Turbuk Castle. guard. The 3,000 infantrymen that Shao Yu brought did not carry any heavy weapons, like trebuchets and chariots remained in the country.

Only a few light ballistas carried by the army. This Shao Yu ballista uses a torsion spring and a composite bow, with a range of up to 500 meters, but it is very slow to reload and can only be used as a deterrent weapon.

In order to gain the ultimate control of the Turbuk Fort, Shao Yu also began to mobilize the army to come to Turbuk Fort to support.

Shao Yu mobilized all the troops of the Che battalion and the chemical infantry battalion, plus three thousand cavalry. As a result, the strength of the Shao Ming Kingdom in the Turbuk Fort area basically reached 15,000.

Shao Yu knew that the Khergit Khanate would begin to attack immediately, but Shao Yu was not worried. With the strength and quality of the troops of the Khergit Khanate, it might not be so easy to regain the Turbuk Fort from his own hands. .

At the same time, Shao Yu also believes that the Kujit Khanate will not pay too much for the battle for Turbuk Fort, and their country needs to recuperate. This year's war has consumed too much national power of the Kujit Khanate. The three neighboring countries have benefited a lot from the war, and the Kujit Khanate is already at a disadvantage on the mainland.

Therefore, the Kujit Khanate has always hoped to avoid war with the Shao Ming Kingdom, but the tree wants to be quiet and the wind is not stopping, the Kujit Khanate does not provoke Shao Yu, but Shao Yu hits the door.

On the grounds of opposing brutal rule, Shao Yu forcibly invaded the Turbuk Fort and brazenly launched a war. In this regard, the Saiga Khan had a headache. The weak country had no diplomacy, and the Kujit Khanate slowly fell to the point of being slaughtered. Although he didn't want to go to war, in order to show his determination to safeguard the interests of his territory and vassals, Saiga Khan sent an army of 30,000 to force Shao Yu's troops to retreat.

The Saiga Khan’s army entered the territory of Turbuk Fort less than three days after Shao Yu occupied the Turbuk Fort. Later discovered by Shao Yu’s scouts

"Your Majesty! The reinforcements of the Khergit Khanate have arrived. There are tens of thousands of horses, mostly cavalry, and four to five thousand infantry units," the scout reported to Shao Yu.

"The Kujit Khanate is really in decline. The infantry has such a large proportion, and their infantry has no combat effectiveness." Shao Yu listened and laughed.

"Or I will lead the army to fight them for a round and try their strength" Ao Deng said

"No, I don't want my soldiers to sacrifice too much. If they can accept the status quo, it is best. If they can't accept it, then defend the city. Cavalry sneak attack, old routines, conservative, the casualties will be smaller." Shao Yu shook his head. Said calmly

"Your Majesty really cherishes the lives of his soldiers" Ao Deng said with emotion after hearing this.

"Of course, it is not easy for anyone to grow up to this age, and their families will be sad if they die," Shao Yu said

"The dead people are going to lose money. If you die too much, you need a lot of money." Shao Yu secretly said that the measure of losing money for the dead was fine when the country was founded with few people. It was all small-scale battles. Now the two sides have invested in the war. There are tens of thousands of troops, and the state subsidies for the dead are a lot of money. Shao Yu feels that the drawbacks of this policy are too great and must be corrected as soon as possible, otherwise the country's economy will be destroyed.

"Batu, Cusa, you bring five thousand cavalry, closely monitor the movement of the enemy, try not to fight with them, once they have any changes, report as soon as possible," Shao Yu ordered.

"Yes, Your Majesty" Cusa and Batu led the orders and left immediately.

"Ao Deng is in charge of the three thousand infantry" Shao Yu continued

"Your Majesty, I have never commanded an army" Ao Deng said unexpectedly.

"Well, it's okay, I believe you, as a general, sooner or later you will command the army" Shao Yu said

"Thank you for your trust," Ao Deng said moved.

Shao Yu didn't say much, he left Turbuk Castle and went to pick up the reinforcements.

Both armies gathered in the vicinity of Turbuk Castle, and both found the opposing armies, but neither of them rushed to attack. Shao Yu's army assembled around the Turbuk Fort. Soon, the 30,000 army of Tuoju Earl began to confront Shao Yu's army.

Shao Yu left the battle book, and Count Tuo Duo went to war at Fort Turbuk the next day.

Earl Tuoju was a little worried after seeing the troops brought by Shao Yu. Shao Yu’s troops also seemed to be tens of thousands, and they were well equipped. Almost all the infantrymen were wearing chain mail, equipped with hook and scythe and nomadic scimitar. .

The cavalry is not as well equipped as the infantry. Basically, they wear leather armor, but they are also equipped with nomadic scimitars, light lances, and skin shields. Fortunately, Shao Yu's most elite Modao knights did not participate in the war, otherwise the casualties of the Kujit Khanate would be even greater.

Saiga Khan specially ordered before dragging the giant Earl that he did not hope that there would be too many soldiers casualties in this war. This makes it very difficult to drag the giant earl. Facing the well-equipped soldiers of the Shao Ming Kingdom with more than 10,000 soldiers, while the opponent can defend the city, it is not easy to regain the Turbuk Fort without paying a certain price.

Count Tuoju challenged and returned the battle book to Shao Yu, and the battle between the two sides was settled the next day.

The army of the Kujit Khanate and the Shao Ming Kingdom killed cattle and sheep to reward the army at night, preparing for the next day of war.

No words for a night~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Soon after the sun rose the next day, the two armies opened their formations.

The army of the Shao Ming Kingdom placed thousands of infantry at the forefront, with a car battalion hidden behind it, and two thousand infantry at the back, surrounded by cavalry.

The Shao Ming Kingdom had 8,000 cavalry participating in the battle this time, and there were also nearly 2,000 cavalry guards and tribal warriors here.

The arrangement of the army of the Khergit Khanate is much simpler. Five hundred Kujit Lancers are in front, five thousand Kujit riders are behind, and there are more than 7,000 guerrilla shooters on the two wings, plus three thousand riders behind. , And finally the most incompetent infantry.

The armies of both sides were ready and the sun had risen. With the drums of war, the army of the Khergit Khanate first launched an offensive.

The army of the Khergit Khanate is dominated by cavalry, and offense is their best choice. The Earl Tuoju hopes to rely on the cavalry's charge advantage to defeat their infantry in one fell swoop, and then rely on the number of advantages to use the tactics of guerrilla cavalry and shooting to strangle Shao Yu's army.

Defending the city has always been the strong point of the Shao Ming Kingdom, and now the Shao Ming Kingdom has given up defending the city and directly requested field battles, which also gave Earl Tuo Ju see hope. In the field, the Khergit Khanate still has a great chance of winning
