Chapter 1097 Ebony City
Ebony City.
When Chang Wei arrived at the grassland of the Red Flame King's tent, a group of Tusman cavalry were running for their lives.
While rushing towards Ebony City, they looked back and it seemed that there was a flood and beast chasing them.
And in fact, for them, the people chasing them now were indeed floods and beasts.
Because they were the Dasong Lancers led by Chen Hu.
"Bang bang bang..."
The Tusman cavalry ran in front, and the chasing Lancers kept shooting.
From time to time, Tusman cavalry fell from their horses.
But when the Lancers entered the 500-meter range of Ebony City, there was a sudden burst of artillery fire, and hundreds of solid bullets flew towards them. .
When the Lancers saw the flames on the city wall, they immediately dispersed. The solid bullets did not hit them, but just rolled over on the grass.
"Hahaha, I haven't seen solid bullets for a long time. It's a pity that our artillery is no longer there, otherwise I must let them see our conical shells." Chen Hu took off the kettle and drank a sip of water, then laughed.
The lancers who surrounded him all smiled.
Zhong Fang said, "The general and his men should be here soon. It's time to deal with these Tusman bastards and take back our Wumu City."
At this moment, Beidi has surrendered to Dasong, so the former territory of Beidi is the territory of Dasong.
What he said is correct.
"Yes, it's our Wumu City." Xue Jian bared his teeth, turned to Chen Hu, and said, "General, when we take back the Tianshan area this time, don't forget to ask the general about forming an army. We can't always rely on the army of other armies for help."
Chen Hu nodded.
He also felt a little inconvenient.
Their lancers can be said to be the nemesis of traditional cavalry, which is their biggest advantage.
But they still have the shortcomings of cavalry, that is, they are not good at attacking cities.
Last time they encountered the trenches of Khan Court, and this time they encountered Wumu City, and they were a little helpless again.
"The general will agree to this, but we can't let him down. We must immediately control the grassland between the Red Flame King's Tent and Wumu City to allow the Central Army to march safely." Chen Hu said.
Just like when he attacked Khan Court, he led the Lancers to attack in advance, with the purpose of controlling the grassland, ensuring the safety of the army's marching route, and destroying the Tusman cavalry as much as possible.
In the past few days, they fought more than ten encounters with the Tusman cavalry on the grassland.
At the beginning, the Tusmans saw them as cats seeing mice.
Later, the Tusman cavalry saw them as mice seeing cats, and they would only run away blindly.
Until they were chased to Wumu City.
"Yes, General." Chen Hu's order was issued, and all the generals responded in unison.
Then Chen Hu made arrangements, ordering Zhong Fang and Xue Jian to go east to protect the army's marching route, and to go west to Wumu City to cut off the connection between Wumu City and the Tusman Empire.
He personally led his cavalry to wander around Wumu City, eradicating scattered Tusman cavalry while also besieging Wumu City.
…
Wumu City.
While the Lancers were taking action, two generals were watching from the top of Wumu City with a monocular telescope.
They were the Grand Duke Yadhan and his cavalry general Abbas, who were responsible for occupying the Tianshan area.
At this moment, Abbas pursed his lips tightly, his face full of anger.
For him, these days were simply nightmare days.
The Dasong Lancers suddenly entered the Tianshan grassland from the east.
These Lancers were rampant in the Tianshan grassland, and when they saw the Tusman cavalry, they would bite and fight.
At present, more than 16,000 Tusman cavalry have died at the hands of the Dasong Lancers, which can be said to be the biggest loss since they occupied Wumu City.
"Grand Duke, their purpose is very clear, to cut off our route for external assistance, to pave the way for their follow-up troops to arrive, and to besiege us and prevent us from escaping." Abbas gritted his teeth and said.
"They think too much. Our Tusman Empire will not spit out the land we have eaten. How could I, Yadhan, retreat?" The man called Grand Duke Yadhan was strong and sturdy, like a black bear.
He slapped the wall heavily and said, "The grasslands of Tianshan are so vast and fertile, making people linger. Anka gave me such a beautiful grassland, how could I throw it away!"
"That's true, but their lancers are as powerful as the rumors say, and it is said that their army is even more powerful. Obviously, in order to capture Wumu City, they will definitely send out the army." Abbas hesitated.
Although he was also very reluctant to leave the grasslands near Tianshan, he knew better that the Dasong army was not as easy to deal with as the Beidi army.
"Of course I know this, so when you came back in disgrace for the first time, I asked Anka for help. Even if they cut off our contact, it was too late. Anka would definitely send reinforcements." Yadhan said.
After a pause, he continued, "Moreover, this place is too far from the heart of Dasong. Dasong cannot deploy too many troops, and even support is difficult. On the contrary, for us, this is our doorstep, so victory will definitely belong to us!"
