Chapter 46 Six Expeditions to Mobei, Attacking the Royal Court

That day.

The wind in Panlong Pass in Shuobei was very strong and urgent.

Within a ten-mile radius of Panlong Pass, the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the vast yellow land was full of ownerless war horses wailing alone.

On the battlefield, blood had already flowed like a river, and corpses piled up like mountains.

The extremely tragic close combat between the two sides continued.

In general, the Longcheng Army led by Jin Wang Chen Huaian had an absolute advantage in the battle with the Turkic coalition.

But the other side had an army of 100,000 after all, a real army of 100,000, and they had made full preparations and mobilization before the war.

As a result, Chen Huaian and his Longcheng Northern Expedition Army soldiers, despite having an absolute advantage in the situation, could not kill them all in a short time.

They just divided and surrounded the 80,000 Yunhui troops arranged in the Three Talents Formation of Heaven and Earth, and annihilated them one by one.

At this moment, on the back of the ridge of Wohu Mountain to the north of Panlong Pass, a narrow slope was densely packed with a mass of cavalry. They were the 50,000 cavalry led by the Turkic Khan Timur.

On the ridgeline, Timur's sunken face was terribly gloomy, and he stared at the Panlong Pass battlefield three miles away without saying a word.

"Khan, the iron pagoda of the dog Han people has been dispatched!"

Beside Timur, a Turkic general said viciously: "Arsleng, Surileheke and 20,000 Turkic warriors are gone, all of them have returned to the eternal heaven!"

"Khan, what should we do now, fight or not?"

Faced with the inquiry of his generals, Timur, the mainstay of the Turkic Empire, did not answer, and still stared at the battlefield intently.

Obviously, for Timur, who was eager for revenge, now was not the best time to lead his troops into the battlefield.

He had been waiting for an opportunity, waiting for Chen Huaian and his 3,000 Dragon City Iron Buddhas to be exhausted and exhausted.

However, he never waited for it.

In Timur's plan, the 20,000 Turkic cavalry and 80,000 Yunhui Army infantry were just a chess piece in his revenge plan, used as bait to lure Chen Huaian and his 3,000 Dragon City Iron Buddha heavy cavalry.

Unfortunately, Chen Huaian, the King of Jin who was good at strategizing and winning thousands of miles away, had already seen through everything.

He ate the bait that Timur sent to his door, but did not fall into the trap that Timur set for him.

At first, when Timur saw Chen Huaian personally leading the Dragon City Iron Buddha to charge, his sunken old face was almost smiling with wrinkles.

But he soon found something wrong. After Chen Huaian led his cavalry to break through the two wings of the Yunhui Army, he did not directly attack the central army.

Instead, relying on the speed advantage of the black armor light cavalry, they besieged the Yunhui army, which had set up the Heaven and Earth Three Talents Formation, and used the Manu equipment carried by the cavalry to attack the Yunhui army with long-range shooters.

As a heavy cavalry, the Longcheng Iron Pagoda quickly left the battlefield to rest after breaking through the two wings of the Yunhui army's Three Talents Formation in the first wave of charge, as if they had guessed that Timur would attack.

In fact, for Chen Huaian, who led the cavalry in person:

In this battle, he did not use a butcher knife to kill a chicken as he did when he surrounded and annihilated 30,000 Yunhui troops in front of the Longshan camp. He used 3,000 Iron Pagodas to charge the formation continuously and break the Pingrong Wanquan formation of the Yunhui army.

On the one hand, it was because Chen Huaian did not need to fight quickly and decisively like in the Longshan battle, completely annihilate the enemy army, and then lead the army back to Longcheng for support;

In the battle of Panlongguan, Chen Huaian had the best time, place and people.

After getting rid of the two cavalry of the Turkic coalition, he had 10,000 Qin elite soldiers and 60,000 black armor infantry under the command of Wang Jian, one of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period and the general of Qin, to deal with the 80,000 Yunhui troops that set up the Three Talents of Heaven and Earth.

It is completely possible to easily defeat and eat the 80,000 Yunhui troops, so why waste the power of the cavalry?

On the other hand, Timur, who took advantage of the civil strife in the northwest of the Great Xin Dynasty and led the 100,000 Turkic troops to the south, has not shown up since the battle started.

Based on Chen Huaian's understanding of Timur, and his father Chen Polu's analysis of the repeated confrontations with Timur during the five expeditions to Mobei in the past few years, he would not believe that Timur would hand over such an important battle to capture Panlongguan to Liang Erhu, the surrendered general who surrendered to the enemy and betrayed the country.

This old fox might be hiding somewhere, ready to kill and attack at any time!

Therefore, after Chen Huaian led the Dragon City Cavalry Square to break through the two wings of the Heaven and Earth Three Talents Formation of the Yunhui Army, he ordered the Dragon City Iron Pagoda and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to leave the battlefield and stand by, and the Black Armor Light Cavalry used Manu equipment to shoot the central army and the garrison of the Yunhui Army from a long distance.

Anyway, the 80,000 Yunhui Army has been surrounded by the Dragon City Northern Expedition Army, so it doesn't matter if they are left to be killed slowly, and he is not in a hurry.

Unlike Chen Huaian's leisurely stroll, Timur was already anxious at this time, but he didn't know what to do.

At present, the 3,000 Dragon City Iron Pagodas are strong and powerful, and there is another Han army that can be seen at a glance as elite cavalry.

If he attacks rashly, Timur has no absolute confidence that he can eat up Chen Huaian's Dragon City Iron Pagoda with 50,000 Turkic Iron Cavalry.

But if he returned home, Timur's trip south would be nothing short of a laughing stock for the Turkic tribes, a huge laughing stock for losing both his wife and his army.

In just a few days at Panlong Pass, more than 50,000 Turkic warriors had fallen forever on this land.

As the Khan of the Turks and the overlord of the grassland, if Timur watched the empire lose its soldiers and generals and did nothing, then the wolf-head chair under his buttocks would probably not last long.

Now, Timur no longer has the ambition he had in the past, and he can't even say the arrogant words "The emperor takes turns, this year it's my turn".

He just wants to know how to keep the wolf-head chair under his buttocks, which symbolizes the overlord of the grassland, from being taken away by others.

At this point, Timur couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Oh, I underestimated the waste prince Chen Huaian in the eyes of the world!

After a long time, the shouting and killing on the battlefield of Panlong Pass gradually weakened.

Timur, who had been paying close attention to the battlefield, suddenly had two rays of light in his turbid eyes.

He finally waited for the opportunity to enter the battlefield!

Liang Erhu, the commander of the Yunhui Army on the Panlong Pass battlefield, saw that the defeat was inevitable and the reinforcements had not yet appeared, so he finally made up his mind to lead the central cavalry to break through and face the Longcheng cavalry that surrounded the Yunhui Army.

Chen Huaian, who had been away from the battlefield, and his Longcheng Iron Buddha, also moved quickly and rushed out in full force to attack Liang Erhu's central cavalry.

The next moment, Timur decisively ordered: "All troops attack!"

In a moment, 50,000 Turkic cavalry hiding on the back of the ridge of Wohu Mountain climbed to the top of Wohu Mountain in unison.

Then, under the personal command of the Khan Timur, they swooped down in a dense charge formation with the momentum of crushing the mountains and rivers, and headed straight for the Panlong Pass battlefield.

The 50,000 Turkic cavalry, at the moment of charging, seemed to have turned into a sharp dagger, stabbing straight into the back of Chen Huaian and the Longcheng cavalry.

Thump, thump, thump!

Thump, thump, thump!

The sound of the rolling hooves was like thunder in the sky, and the iron hooves of the war horses hit the ground, shaking the yellow earth of Panlong Pass.

Seeing this, Liang Erhu, who was leading the cavalry of the Yunhui Army to break through, laughed wildly at the sky: "Hahaha, God will not destroy me, Liang Erhu, God will not destroy me, Liang Erhu!"

Three thousand steps!

Two thousand five hundred steps!

Two thousand steps!

In the blink of an eye, the 50,000 Turkic cavalry that came with the power of destroying the world were only two thousand steps away from the Panlong Pass battlefield.

Suddenly, the Longcheng cavalry that was chasing Liang Erhu in front of them changed their formation.

Tens of thousands of cavalry were divided into two during the charge, and then after drawing a peach shape on the huge battlefield, they gathered together again and killed a surprise attack.

In a blink of an eye, the attack direction was changed, facing the 50,000 Turkic cavalry that swooped down from Crouching Tiger Mountain and tried to sneak attack the Dragon City cavalry army.

King Chen Huaian of Jin, holding a Fangtian painted halberd, rode a yellow horse and charged at the front, followed by 3,000 Dragon City Iron Pagodas with heavy armor on both men and horses, followed by 10,000 Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and dragged at the back were 20,000 Black Armor Light Cavalry.

Chen Huaian, who was charging on horseback, pointed with the tip of his halberd and shouted domineeringly:

"All the generals of the Dragon City Northern Expedition Army, follow me, kill the Turkic commander, and cut down the Turkic banner——"

"Follow me in the sixth expedition to Mobei and attack the royal court!"

"Six expeditions to Mobei, attack the royal court!"

"Six expeditions to Mobei, attack the royal court!"
