Chapter 285 – Emperor of Western Liao, Yelu Dashi Comes!.
“Xuejing Hu Tian herding horse back, Yueming Qiang Di Shu between the buildings.”
Ask where the plum blossoms fall, and the wind blows all over the mountain overnight…
“This stuffed scenery, no matter when you see it, people can’t help but feel that the sky is high and the earth is wide, and they are galloping freely!”
In the spring and April of the first year of Zhaowu, on the grassland, there was still a little cold of late spring.
Chai Hao, the son of the Great Zhou Tianzi, personally led a hundred thousand iron horses, and has already appeared outside the Great Wall!
Yue Fei personally led Yang Zaixing and other 10,000 horsemen to join the army, and Yang Ke Shi led 10,000 horsemen from the two directions of Yunzhou and Huanglongfu to converge.
In this way, under Chai Hao’s command, there are 120,000 light and heavy iron riders!
This is a terrifying force that can sweep the world!
After all, at the beginning, Chai Hao only commanded 130,000 steps of horses, of which half steps and half horses, iron horses were only 60,000 or 70,000, Rao so, he was able to defeat the Jin State with hundreds of thousands of iron horses, and put Jin
“The country is completely destroyed.”
What’s more, now under Chai Hao’s command, there are a full 120,000 iron horses!
Moreover, these 120,000 iron horsemen are not all the cavalry of the Great Zhou today, but only a part.
The Great Zhou, which destroyed the Jin Kingdom and Western Xia and occupied thousands of miles in the northern country, had sufficient horse sources and horse breeding land.
Now it has been equipped with no less than 200,000 iron horses!
And, it continues to be equipped!
And, this is just an iron ride.
If you add the infantry, the water army, the thunderbolt army, and the garrisons in various places, the military strength of the Great Zhou is no less than 500,000!
Of course, this is only the military strength of the Great Zhou Ming.
Chai Hao’s Great Zhou took the route of elite soldiers, and the most elite army was an army of more than 100,000 iron horsemen, more than 100,000 Western Army and other infantry troops, and 300,000 water troops.
These 300,000 troops are also the backbone of Chai Hao’s Northern Expedition to the Golden Country, sweeping thousands of miles, and after the tempering of the battle to destroy the country, they are only extremely lean.
The other 200,000 are the defenders in various places, and after the original Zhao and Song forbidden army was streamlined and reduced, leaving relatively capable local garrisons.
In peacetime, it mainly maintains local law and order, and is responsible for collecting and suppressing bandits.
However, many of the core generals and officers of these local garrisons were retired soldiers from the elite of the Great Zhou Iron Horse.
These soldiers should either retire because they are invalid, they are not suitable to fight on the battlefield again, or they have reached a certain age.
Even if these soldiers retired due to injuries and old age, they just could no longer fight on the battlefield of hundreds of thousands of troops.
Retreating to various places, using them as generals and officers, and training the garrisons in various places is enough to make the defenders in these places refined, even if they cannot be compared with the field elite of the Great Zhou, but they will be ten times stronger than the forbidden army at the time of the Zhao and Song dynasties!
At least it is more than enough to collect bandits and maintain law and order!
In this way, there are 300,000 elite armies outside, and 200,000 reliable garrisons inside, and the foundation of the Great Zhou is as stable as Mount Tai!
Because, this 500,000 army is far stronger than the 800,000 forbidden army and the 1 million box army that were shrunk and raised during the Zhao and Song dynasties!
At that time, Zhao and Song had a forbidden army together, claiming to be 1.8 million, but they could not stop the invasion of Liaojin Xixia, and even almost died by the Jin state.
And Chai Hao started with tens of thousands of iron armor, defeated the Jin State and destroyed Zhao and Song.
The army of the Jin State was destroyed by no less than six or seven hundred thousand!
Suffice it to show that there are not many soldiers but refinement!
Therefore, at this moment, Chai Hao led 120,000 iron horses to seal the wolf Juxu horse to step on the grassland, not to bring fewer people, but more!
After all, the combat power of those grassland light horses was far less than that of the original Jin Guo Iron Horse.
And if Chai Hao had 120,000 iron horses, even if he faced the 500,000 army of the Jin Kingdom, he would have dared to rampage!
Now with these 120,000 iron horses, even if all the light horses on the grassland are added together, they are not Chai Wu’s opponents!
In fact, if he just wanted to defeat Xiao Gan and Mur Wei’s troops, Chai Hao would be enough to send Yue Fei to lead 350,000 steps to ride.
After all, in winter, Xiao Gan gathered 300,000 horse soldiers to invade the territory in several ways, and Yue Fei, who was stationed in the Huanglong Mansion, with 30,000 troops, lost his armor and lost 60,000 soldiers.
Yang Keshi, who was stationed in Yunzhou, also brazenly attacked, and 5,000 white soldiers rode heavily, and they beheaded 30,000 Hu horsemen.
The two sides added together, let Xiao Gan and other Hu cavalry lose 100,000 soldiers!
Not only did they not get a single cent of the grass valley from the border of the Great Zhou, but they discarded a lot of horses and a lot of weight, and the sheep on the grassland were already damaged a lot because of the heavy snow and cold, so they had to take a desperate step and want to hit the grass valley in the Great Zhou.
This time, not only did it not make a grass valley, but it discarded many marching weights that were hard to put together.
……
This can be described as stealing chickens, losing rice, losing the lady and breaking the army.
This winter, the steppe tribe is destined to have an extremely difficult life!
And Chai Hao gathered 120,000 iron horses to take advantage of your illness and kill you!
If you defeat the grassland Hu Cavalry, tens of thousands of Zhou soldiers will be enough.
And 120,000 iron horses are enough to plow through the desert, the Hanhai desert, the northern desert and the southern grassland, all of them in a dragnet manner!
At the beginning, the strength of the Han Dynasty was only to defeat the Xiongnu and make them flee, so that there was no royal court in the south and north of the desert, rather than no foreign races in the south and north of the desert.
Now what Chai Hao has to do is to plow the court and sweep the cave, so that there is no place for foreign races to exist in the south and north of the desert!
Or, completely surrender the Great Zhou and be fused by the Great Zhou.
Or, or perish!
Chai Hao is not cruel and cold-blooded, but because since ancient times, when Hu Qiqi was strong, he would go south and slaughter the Central Plains!
If nothing else, in the original history, in another hundred years, a generation of Tianjiao rose on the steppe, and the empire he established swept across Europe and Asia, horseshoes and butcher knives passed, ten rooms and nine empty, killing people!
That generation of Tianjiao even has a famous saying: The greatest joy in life is to hunt down your enemies everywhere, plunder their wealth, land and women, and listen to their wives and children crying!
Such a figure is a hero and a good commander for his forces and his men. But for the people of the Central Plains, it is suffering and disaster!
Therefore, Chai Hao will never leave such hidden dangers to the Central Plains in the future!
If the four seas of the world want to be unified, Chai Hao feels that it is undoubtedly better to come by himself! This is a battle for Taoism, but also a battle for survival!
“Your Majesty, the scout has already discovered that Xiao Gan’s Xi Ren and Mur Weimengyu and other departments have gathered their troops together, and have set up many camps up and down Wolf Juxu Mountain, putting on the posture of holding Wolf Juxu Mountain!”
A scout carrying the ghost army galloped from a distance and reported to Chai Haoyu.
“Xiao Gan, this is self-aware that there is no way to avoid it, do you want to fight to the death…”
Chai Hao sneered and was unimpressed.
Immediately afterwards, another member of the horse came: “Your Majesty, in Xiao Qian’s camp, a group of men and horses galloped out, claiming to be the envoy of the Western Liao Emperor Yelu Dashi, asking to see Your Majesty…” Force”
