Chapter 255 Killing the Mughal Lord(1/2)
A lord from the Mughal Empire in India was leading an army of 10,000 people to wander on the plains. His goal was the city that had been occupied by Chutian.
The lord of the Mughal Empire had not yet realized that the city defended by NPC defenders had been captured by Chutian and was now defended by the Eastern Han Dynasty's army.
He still marched towards the city.
Chu Tian thought of a good idea to deal with the lords of the Mughal Empire.
He ordered people to clean up yesterday's battlefield, removed the dragon flag symbolizing the Eastern Han Dynasty, disguised himself as a weak NPC garrison, and waited for the lords of the Mughal Empire to attack.
The average level of the NPC army in the national war battlefield is only 30, which is not enough in front of the big lords, so many lords will choose to attack the city.
"This is probably called waiting for the rabbit."
Chu Tian sat at the top of the city, waiting patiently for the Mughal lords to come and attack.
Chu Tian also realized that Goryeo and Japan were not necessarily powerful enemies of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The biggest enemy of the Eastern Han Dynasty was probably the Indian Asan. They had a large population, not inferior to that of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and could easily have hundreds of thousands of troops.
If Ah San's spirit could be thwarted in the national war, they would not dare to be so arrogant and jump up and down.
"My lord, this move is too cruel."
Fang Xuanling learned that Chu Tian had moved a chair and sat leisurely at the top of the city waiting for the Indian Asan to kill him. He couldn't help but think that Chu Tian's tactics were insidious.
Just imagine, the Mughal Empire lord who originally thought that the city would be easy to break through suddenly ran into the iron wall composed of the Chutian Army. The feeling of despair...
Xue Rengui informed: "Lord, the army of the Mughal Empire has arrived at the city!"
Chu Tian looked down at the densely packed enemy troops below.
A 10,000-strong Mughal Empire army was arrayed under the city, the most elite of which were Rajput cavalry and a group of infantry and archers. Many soldiers had turbans wrapped on their heads.
It is true that this was a powerful Mughal lord.
However, Chu Tian judged that he was not the most powerful lord of the Mughal Empire.
“Why didn’t the Mughal elephant soldiers show up?”
Chu Tian regretted not seeing the elephant soldiers, but the elephant soldiers had no role in the siege.
The lords of the Mughal Empire formed a storming formation. They were obviously very confident in their own military power and wanted to capture the city in one go.
This lord's judgment is correct, provided that the city's defenders have not changed.
However……
The soldiers guarding the city have been replaced by the Shesheng Battalion. The longbowmen of the Shesheng Battalion have prepared a large number of arrows.
The Shesheng Battalion received a large number of bonuses. Li Guang's SS-level flying general has +15% crossbow damage and +10% damage to aliens; Le Yi's army aura Five Kingdoms Conquer Qi, attack power +10%; Chu
Tian’s army aura, the Han Army Soul, all attributes +3%.
The Shesheng Camp also has the "Han Soul" characteristic, which deals +10% damage to aliens.
Therefore, the attack power of the Shesheng Battalion is +13%, and the damage of crossbows against foreign races is increased by 35%, which is extremely shocking.
When the alien army encounters the Shesheng Battalion of the fifth school of the Northern Army, and with the bonuses of a series of famous generals, they will face a baptism of arrows.
It is estimated that the English longbowmen added by the Black Prince Edward will be defeated by the Shesheng Battalion added by Li Guang, Le Yi, and Chu Tian.
As a flying general, Li Guang finally showed his ability to the fullest during the national war!
"Li Guang's foreign war is really strong. Compared with the civil war, he is like two different heroes. He is worthy of being the flying general who made the Xiongnu dare not invade the border. Even Li Guang's foreign war is so fierce, so what about Wei Qing and Huo Qubing?
How powerful?"
Chu Tian knew that Zhou Yafu and Li Guang were not the top military generals in the Han Dynasty.
The top group of generals should be Han Xin, Wei Qing, and Huo Qubing.
Li Guang is now so powerful that Chu Tian can ignore Li Guang's negative characteristics.
As long as Li Guang fights beside Chu Tian, his bad luck will not be that bad.
The whole army aura is even better.
Le Yi was already a core general to Chu Tian.
"Lords of the Mughal Empire in India, let me see your strength."
Chu Tian had limited knowledge of the strength of the Mughal Empire, which was a large empire established by the Turkic Mongols in India.
"I don't know why, but I feel a little uneasy..."
The Mughal Empire lord and his army were more or less suppressed by the characteristics of the "Sky Khan", and their combat effectiveness and morale were affected.
Despite this, after the military craftsman made the ladder, the lords of the Mughal Empire still chose to attack the city. Infantrymen armed with scimitars, battle axes, swords, and bucklers carried the ladder in an attempt to capture the seemingly easy city.
The captured city.
"Fire the arrow!"
The archers of the battalion commander on the city wall fired arrows, and dense rain of arrows shot out of the air, hitting the Mughal army attacking the city wall!
One after another, Mughal soldiers fell on the way. Unless they were heavily armored soldiers, they were shot by the Zhejiang composite bow of the Shesheng Battalion, narrowly escaping death!
Round after round of arrows rained down, and the Mughal infantry and archers suffered heavy casualties. In less than ten minutes, hundreds of people were killed!
The Mughal soldiers braved heavy losses and stormed the city. Some soldiers escaped from the rain of arrows and climbed ladders with scimitars and bucklers in hand.
The Goryeo soldiers who surrendered to Chutian surrendered and acted as auxiliary soldiers, knocking down the Mughal soldiers with stones.
It was not easy for the Mughal soldiers to board the city. A square-shaped halberd swept over and directly swept the Mughal soldiers down!
The Mughal soldiers were horrified to find that they fell from the six-meter-high city wall and were reduced to a pulp!
Xue Rengui and Zhao Yun were on the city wall specifically to kill the Mughal soldiers who ascended the city.
Hua Xiong was carrying a big sword, and one blow was enough to cut a Mughal infantryman in half. The scene was very shocking!
The narrow terrain of the city wall allowed them to exert their force, and a few Mughal soldiers could not break through.
Li Xiuning led a team of women's soldiers to follow Chu Tian as a bodyguard.
The two sides fought for about half an hour, and the siege side suffered thousands of casualties!
"Instruct Xue Rengui and Zhao Yun to go down to the city to command the cavalry and prepare to hunt down the Mughal lord. Next, the city wall will be defended by Li Xiuning and Hua Xiong."
Chu Tian estimated that the time would be about the same.
"As commanded."
As Li Shimin's sister, Li Xiuning is also a fierce person.
She held two Tang knives. One Tang knives blocked the weapons of the Mughal soldiers, and the other Tang knives took the opportunity to stab the enemy's abdomen!
Kill the enemy without mercy!
Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself!
The mentality of the Mughal lords below the city had collapsed and they ordered a retreat.
He brought 10,000 people to join the battle. As a result, one-tenth of his troops were reduced in half an hour, but the city showed no sign of shaking.
If the fight continues, it is estimated that his 10,000-strong army will be wiped out in half a day.
Just as the Mughal Empire army was retreating, the city gate opened, and Hua Mulan, Xue Rengui, and Zhao Yun, who were ready to attack, rushed out and charged into the Mughal Empire army!
The Mughal army was unable to attack the city, and its morale had been shaken. With the addition of three cavalry generals, the army completely collapsed and was attacked by Hua Mulan, Xue Rengui, and Zhao Yun!
Hua Mulan raised the sharp Tang sword in her right hand high, and the Mughal soldiers who turned around and fled were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
Xue Rengui's Tang Dynasty archers fought with the Indian Rajput cavalry. Under the leadership of Xue Rengui, the Tang Dynasty archers were overwhelming. Xue Rengui took the lead and won the title of the three armies!
None of the oncoming Rajput cavalry were any match for Xue Rengui. Fang Tian drew his halberd and killed him with one move!
A Mughal cavalry general came to challenge him, but Xue Rengui shouted at him and threw him off his horse!
The Mughal army was greatly frightened, and the morale of the Rajput cavalry collapsed and they turned around and fled.
Xue Rengui sent troops to pursue him in the rear, rushing left and right, killing hundreds of people in one battle!
The only thing that can stop him from killing the enemy is the physical limit of him and his horse!
When the lord of the Mughal Empire saw a white-robed young man chasing him from behind, he was so distraught that he abandoned his army and fled!
Hua Mulan's light cavalry is faster than Xue Rengui and Zhao Yun's cavalry.
When Xue Rengui and Zhao Yun were attacking the shaken Mughal Empire army head-on, Hua Mulan used the mobility of the Iron Eagle Scout Cavalry to carry out a roundabout attack!
If you take a bird's-eye view from the air, you can clearly see that Hua Mulan's cavalry has detoured from the flanks to the rear of the Mughal army, and happened to meet the Mughal lord and his Rajput cavalry!
Although Hua Mulan's Iron Eagle Scout is often used for reconnaissance, it is still a sixth-level light cavalry, and it is not inferior to ordinary light cavalry in a head-on confrontation!
Hua Mulan itself has a 25% attack and defense bonus. Coupled with Chu Tian and Le Yi's army halo, the Iron Eagle Scout can have an additional 38% attack bonus and 28% defense bonus, making up for its combat effectiveness as a reconnaissance cavalry.
Inadequate flaws!
The Iron Eagle Scout easily cuts through the Rajput cavalry whose morale has collapsed!
The combat effectiveness of the Rajput cavalry is not weak, but they encountered the more powerful Eastern cavalry!
Hua Mulan caught a glimpse of the opponent's lion flag and knew that there might be a big shot of the opponent under the flag, so she went straight to the lion flag with great momentum!
All the Rajput cavalry along the way died under the swords of Hua Mulan and her cavalry. Hua Mulan felt like she was in a deserted land!
