Chapter 991: Hope Dashed
The more than 5,000 hammer cavalry who attacked the town of Kuasr were all wiped out, and the once beautiful town became a mess, and Dongfang Jin finally came to the town. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Xiao Zhiyun had already lost her strength, leaned against the wall and panted, seeing Dongfang Jin with a gloomy face, she shook her head with a wry smile. There are countless generals in the army, and only Dongfang Jin dares to do this, although he won and completely gained the initiative, but this is a battle that is destined to have no merit, because Dongfang Jin put Zhao Yougong in danger. If it were someone else, I am afraid that they would not think much about it at all, and directly rushed to the small town of Kuasr, in that case, His Highness and the Ruifeng Battalion would naturally not have any major incidents, but in the same way, more than 5,000 hammer cavalry would come and go freely. More than 5,000 Slavic cavalrymen, who can say for sure what kind of impact so many cavalry will have on future wars? Therefore, Dongfang Jin is really bold, if he wins, the merits and demerits are compensated, if he loses, Dongfang Jin will not escape death. However, it can also be seen from this point that Dongfang Jin is a person who does not want to be famous, everything he does is from the overall situation, he dares to do this, and he thinks that the Ruifeng Battalion can withstand it.
Dongfang Jin is also very anxious, although he is very confident in Zhao Yougong and others, he still keeps praying along the way, because as long as something happens to His Royal Highness Zhao, then he Dongfang Daguan will have only a dead end. Those who favor highly, even the eldest princess, will not show mercy. There are thousands of soldiers in the Ruifeng Battalion, and there are towns as supporters, and there are talents like Zhao Yougong, Yang Zaixing, Xiao Zhiyun and Hu Sanniang in the army. Fortunately, he guessed correctly, Ruifeng Camp really did not disappoint, after solving the Slavs on the periphery, Dongfang Jin rode into the town on horseback and found Xiao Zhiyun and Yang Zaixing, but when he saw Xiao Zhiyun's sinister gaze, he shuddered, and he didn't dare to come to Xiao Zhiyun's face to find a scolding, so he got off the horse and helped Yang Zaixing. At this time, General Yang's armor was tattered, and there were three wounds on his shoulders and abdomen, and his expression was embarrassed, "Shao Lie, where is Your Highness?" Where is Your Highness? ”
Yang Zaixing glanced at Dongfang Jin weakly, found a spear and pestle on the ground, and panted heavily, "I don't know.... I went to look for Chai Keluo outside the town before, you hurry up and look for it, don't blame Yang for saying ugly things ahead, if something happens to His Royal Highness, you just wait for a thousand cuts." Yang Zaixing's tone was sinister, and Dongfang Jin gasped when he heard it, do you blame Yang Zaixing? I'm afraid it's no wonder, even Xiao Zhiyun is gloomy and compassionate, not to mention Yang Zaixing, that is, Yang Zaixing and Xiao Zhiyun are more reasonable, if they meet a rough man like Gao Zhong and Yelusha, it is estimated that without saying a word, he will throw him Dongfang Jin under the gate knife and chop it up and feed it to the dog. Dongfang Jin touched the cold sweat on his forehead, and ran out of the town in three steps and two steps, he knew very well in his heart that now His Highness is alive, he can live, and if something happens to His Highness, he Dongfang will have to be buried with him today. What is for the sake of the overall situation, what killed more than 5,000 hammer cavalry, compared to His Royal Highness Zhao, these are all fart?
In the southwest of the town, Dongfang Jin saw a mountain of corpses, and when he saw so many corpses, he almost fainted, especially the golden dragon flag that fell in the pile of corpses was even more dazzling, and the golden dragon flag also fell, what about His Highness? Suddenly, Dongfang Jin had a bad feeling in his heart, his face trembled, and he ran to the pile of corpses and pulled up, crying bitterly while pulling, tears and snot flowed out, crying earth-shattering, "Your Highness, you can't have anything to do.... If you're gone, your subordinates won't be able to live alone.... Whining.... You idiots, what are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and find out, you must find out Your Highness..."
Dongfang Jin cried a sad heart, he was not only because of his life and death, but also because of his true feelings. After so many years of getting along, from the Longmen Desert to the current Kiporos, the two get along well, although they are subordinates, they are actually very good friends, and now that the Golden Dragon Flag is broken, Dongfang Jin can't help but be sad. A commander held his helmet, the corners of his mouth trembled, and his eyes rolled up, "Military advisor.... What are you doing, Your Highness is alive and well, just rest in front of you..."
Ga, Dongfang Jin was crying sadly, and when he suddenly heard such a sentence, the whole person was blinded. After a long while, he took out a severed arm from the pile of corpses and took it according to the commander next to him, "You are a fool, Your Highness is alive and well, why didn't you say it earlier!" ”
The commander was full of innocence, and his heart kept slandering, as soon as you showed up, you crawled into the pile of corpses and pulled it, and you snorted and cried, the devil knows what you want to do. I was unhappy, but I didn't dare to worry about Dongfang Jin, so I could only hide back, raising my arm to cover my face, "Military advisor.... You can't blame the general, the general wanted to say it, and you didn't give the general a chance. ”
"Hmph, you rammer, a certain family will settle accounts with you in the future" Dongfang Jin shook his sleeves and climbed up the corpse mountain, looked forward, and sure enough, there were more than a dozen people sitting under the big tree resting, and they didn't care about any image, so they rolled down from the corpse mountain and soon rushed to the bottom of the big tree. Seeing that familiar face, Dongfang Jin suddenly felt so kind, "Your Highness, you're okay, haha, woo.... But it scared a certain family. ”
Dongfang Jin was crying and laughing, which really made people laugh. However, Zhao Yougong somewhat understood Dongfang Jin, and finally destroyed more than 5,000 hammer cavalry, but he was going to be looked down upon, and only he could know the grievances in his heart. Stretched out his hand and patted Dongfang Jin's shoulder, grinning, "Great official, don't you rely on this king to get so close, what should you do if others think too much?" This king doesn't have that bad habit, you don't have a shame, this king still needs some face. ”
Wow, Dongfang Jin prepared a belly of beautiful words, but he was choked by Zhao Yougong's words and almost didn't take his breath. However, he was also a lot more relieved, and he could still joke nonsense, proving that His Highness really had no big problems.
In the battle of the town of Kuasr, the Hammer Cavalry lost a lot of money, and they didn't get any benefits, but they trapped themselves. Chai Keluo was the most unlucky person, he was bent on running for his life, but he couldn't escape in the end, and Dongfang Jin didn't think about taking any prisoners, so Chai Keluo didn't even have a chance to surrender. Those Mongol cavalrymen all exchanged their heads for military merits, and when they saw the green light in their heads, these Mongols would be considered to be open to heaven if they did not kill good and risky merits, and it was whimsical to expect them to take prisoners. Although the battle in the town was thrilling, it was actually all within Dongfang Jin's expectations, if he hadn't been bold and careful, the battle in the town would not have been able to achieve such great results.
In comparison, Lovednov, who sat in the city of Vladimir and waited for news, was much more miserable. There has been no news of the thousands of cavalry sent to the small town of Kuasr, Luo Weidenov can be said to be living like a year, today is the third day, the uneasiness in his heart is getting stronger and stronger, Luo Weide can't do it in the house, he sorted out the documents in his hand, put them on the top, and walked out of the castle with a frown. Perhaps it was the reason why the Great War was approaching, the streets were sparsely populated, and even the hawkers were much less in the rain or shine, and a few beggars in the corners were curled up and looked at the patrols with awe on their faces, many places were smelly and dirty, and the walls were stained with a lot of black mud. Vladimir was full of corruption and filth, but Luo Weide did not react to it, since the Great Plague, there have been too many tragedies to see it, and everything in front of him is just a small matter. Crossing the long street and walking straight to the top of the city, the guards saluted unusually respectfully, and their eyes were full of admiration. Luo Weide was born into a great aristocracy, read a lot of books since he was a child, and was praised as a great wisdom by the people of Kipros. Reading is a luxury, today's Kipros is far inferior to the Great Song Dynasty, there are very few people who can read, and most of the nobles will not cherish the opportunity to read, most of them feel that reading is meaningless, so it also leads to very few people who really know how to know Kipros, and Luo Weidenov is one of them.
Warm spring came, but Vladimir's wind was still a little cold, tightening the cloak on his body, Luo Weide looked out of the city in a little confusion, at this time he had no time to care about the affairs of the Gorod Heights, he was most concerned about the more than 5,000 hammer cavalry. After the failure of the Eastern Crusade and the invasion of the Great Plague, Kipros has become weak, and more than 10,000 Iron Hammer Cavalry have been formed by smashing pots and selling iron, so they can't afford to lose at all. Not long after looking at the city, the legal officer hurriedly walked over and handed over a letter sealed with wax, "Lord Luo Weide, the news just sent by the Red Flame Fort guard in front of you is a military report from Kuasr Town. ”
As soon as he heard that it was an urgent report on the military situation from Kuasr, Luo Weide didn't care if it was on the city, picked up the sealed wax, and unfolded the military report, but after just a glance, he felt that his eyes were gray and blurred. The heartbeat was getting faster and faster, even the hands began to tremble, the legs had no strength at all, the head was buzzing, and everything in front of him shook for a while, Luo Weide screamed in pain, and the whole person fell backwards. Doche and a few pro-soldiers had already seen that something was wrong with Luo Weide, and when his body fell back, several people supported Luo Weide with all hands and feet, but at this time Luo Weide had already fainted, and the military newspaper leaf in his hand fell to the ground. He was as careful as a hair, and without waiting for others to see the content of the military newspaper, he quickly bent down and picked it up, swept it slightly, and his heart couldn't help but tremble, he finally understood why Luo Weide fainted. More than 5,000 Hammer Cavalry were wiped out, and Kipros lost the only chance to turn the tide of battle. More than 5,000 hammer cavalry, without them, how much attack power does Kiporos have left? No wonder Lord Luo Weide has heartache, this is the hard work of countless people in Kipros. Why is this happening? Why is everything not going well, is Kipros really coming to an end?
The oil lamp emitted a faint light, the room was dull, and after Luo Weide woke up, he looked at the dark roof with some blankness, no matter how far the situation developed, he tried to turn it around. From the Gorod Highlands to the small town of Kuasr, he has been trying to find opportunities and preserve his strength as much as possible. These days, he lives cautiously, racking his brains to find a little glory for Kipros. In Kuasr, he found an opportunity, and if all goes well, he can seize that only opportunity to turn the tide of the battlefield. There will be no more missed opportunities, so Luo Weide was tempted, but as a result, Kuasr did not fight down, not to mention, more than 5,000 hammer cavalry were also wiped out. Why is this happening? Luo Weide couldn't understand that he had worked hard enough, been careful enough, and even gave all his faith to God, and did everything he could, but he still failed. For the first time, Luo Weide felt a deep helplessness, in the face of huge power, all conspiracies and tricks became weak, and he had great power to forcibly crush the past. Facing the Orientals at this time is like facing that infinite power. The strength of the Orientals is too strong, and it is no longer a trick to win. A sneak attack on Kuasr is not bad, it is already the most reliable trick, but it still ends miserably, because of what? The reason is too simple, the Orientals are strong, they have enough troops, and in the blink of an eye, they surrounded Kuasr, and the sneak attackers became turtles in the urn.
This is powerful, really powerful, no matter how you fight, you can't beat it through. There was a deep sense of powerlessness in Lovednov, he didn't know how long he could hold out, a day or two? When did blood stain the land? Maybe today, maybe tomorrow.
The events in the small town of Kuasr did not affect the battle situation in the Gorod Heights at all, and at this time, Tirov did not know that such a big thing had happened in the small town of Kuasr, if he knew, he would definitely withdraw his troops without hesitation, let alone have the intention of returning to Tver. It's a pity that the small town of Kuasr is an emergency, and it is impossible for Tirov to know in advance, and it is even more impossible for Lovednov to predict the outcome of the battle in advance, and now even if he wants to send news, it is too late. With the return of tens of thousands of eastern troops to the city of Koster, the pressure on the frontal battlefield in the Gorod Heights increased dramatically, and the outermost defensive line had been harassed by the Mongol cavalry, and the Slavs were powerless to stop it, and soon abandoned the outermost defensive line. Having lost his advantage in the high ground, Tilov was no longer able to cope with the defensive Gorod with the same ease as before. Jerusha was personally in charge of the Gorod offensive and defensive battles, and this time he was not in a hurry, but fought steadily, testing with a small number of troops each time, which also caused the trap prepared by the Slavs to lose its effect.
The pressure was mounting and Tirov soon had the idea of retreating, and Rosh ran in panting, his face pale as if he had been blowing in the snow for two days and two nights. But this is not the middle of winter, but a warm spring, and there can be no icy snow, "Rosh, what's wrong?" Aren't you stationed on the flanks? ”
Rosh's face was full of horror, and he exhaled a long breath before he said tremblingly, "Oh no, there are a large number of Eastern cavalry in the direction of Tver, judging from the armor, it should be the elite iron chain cavalry of the Easterners?" ”
"What?" Tirov sat down directly in his seat, he finally understood why the Easterners were not in a hurry to attack Gorod, and thought that they were cautious, but it turned out that they had other plans. (To be continued.) )
