Ili River Valley, Alimari, and Temujin received unfavorable news one after another.

"The snow in the north of Mo was so severe that hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep were frozen to death. The Zhebe tribe who returned to the north of Mo was frozen to death from Moonan."

"The Golden Horde was attacked by the Eastern European Grassland Alliance, and the Eastern European Grassland Alliance has about 150,000 people!"

"The Persian coalition forces launched a large-scale attack on the Ilikhanate, claiming to be a 500,000 army!"

"Seljuk Sultan retreated to the royal city and defended desperately. Mongko, Ogedei, and Timur's cavalry are occupying the cities of the Seljuk Empire."

"Let Ogedei and Mongke not attack every city, just conquer large cities with teleportation arrays and cities that can obtain supplies."

"Khan, the Subutai tribe north of the Tianshan Mountains is being attacked by unknown Han cavalry. The Subutai Lord fought with it, causing an avalanche. The avalanche caused tens of thousands of cavalry to be killed!"

"The Han Empire Expeditionary Force in Luntai City is missing!"

News from all over the country reached Temujin in Alimari, and the five major civilizations were determined to erase the three Khanate that had descended.

The territory of the three Khanate overlaps with the sphere of influence of the five civilizations, and at the same time poses a threat to the five civilizations, so the five civilizations want to get rid of them and then go faster.

What made Temujin most alert was the disappearing Han Empire Expeditionary Force.

The Han Empire Expeditionary Force stationed in Luntai City still did not return to the pass. It suddenly disappeared and its target might be the Chagatai Khanate.

The Han Empire had destroyed the Ogedei Khanate, and the Chagatai Khanate might be their next target.

"Ling Zhebe led 100,000 cavalry to teleport from Mobei to Alimali."

Temujin couldn't help but worry about the purpose of the Han Empire's expeditionary force.

He and Chagatai's troops lost nearly half of them in the battle of Luntai and needed to obtain a batch of supplies.

"In addition, trying to migrate a group of people to Central Asia, Mobei cannot feed so many people, so they will stay in Mobei, and will starve to death next year."

"Sweat, need to brave the cold winter to migrate them?"

"Mobei is not that safe anymore. Spread the population everywhere, Chagatai, and you will find that it is the best choice for our tribe. Summon troops from all over the world to come to Alimali, the disappearing Han Empire Expeditionary Force, the target is here."

Chagatai showed an incredible expression: "The expeditionary force of the Han Empire, how dare they cross the Tianshan Mountains and attack Alimali?"

"Don't underestimate them. Subutai has encountered a crisis. Mu Huali, you go and help Subutai to deal with Wei Qing and Huo Qubing. If you cannot win, it will be safe to migrate the population to the Chagatai Khanate, north of the Tianshan Mountains."

Temujin had a strong premonition.

Among the four Qixue, Mu Huali, who had the strongest military command ability, led the cavalry to support Subutai under the order of Temujin.

"Chagatai, strengthen patrols of various mountain roads in the Tianshan Mountains. Once the traces of the Han Empire's Expeditionary Force are found, report them immediately."

"The possible passages that the Han Empire Expeditionary Forces have taken include Xiate Road, Wusun Road, Kucha Road, and Tianshan North Road..."

A parchment map was spread out on Chagatai. This parchment map was marked with various ancient Tianshan roads, with dogs and teeth intertwined.

The Tianshan Mountains are extremely steep, but among these interlaced mountains, there are still some mountain paths that can be marching.

"Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, who attacked Subutai, walked on the North Tianshan Road, so the Han Empire Expeditionary Force may be staggered with it and walked on the Wusun Road."

Temujin moved his fingers to the Wusun Road.

The wind was howling, Wusun Road, and the Han Empire Expeditionary Force was forcibly crossing the Tianshan Mountains.

Along the Wusun Road, you can also see the disrepaired fortresses and beacon towers.

In order to unite the Wusun Kingdom and deal with the Xiongnu, Emperor Wu of Han established a garrison fort and beacon tower with Xiate Road and Wusun Road as the main military roads.

Originally, these fortresses had been abandoned, but Huoan served as the Western Regions' Protectorate and needed to control the Ili River Valley, the Tarim Basin, the Junggar Basin, the Dayuan Kingdom and other places at the same time, and restored these fortifications and became a supply point for the Han Empire Expeditionary Force to cross the Tianshan Mountains.

"It is hard to imagine that in the Han Dynasty, such a channel had been opened. In such a harsh environment... the wisdom and courage of the ancients had to be admired."

Xu Fengnian led the war horse, and the Han Empire Expeditionary Force had reached the end of Wusun Road and was about to enter the Yili River Valley.

"The area of ​​the Lord has expanded and the width of the Wusun Road has also increased. Otherwise, it will be more difficult to march, let alone pass through 110,000 troops. As long as we occupy Alimari and restore the teleportation array between Luntai and Alimari, we will not have to cross the Tianshan Mountains in the future. If it weren't forcibly occupied Alimari by the Chagatai Khanate, why should we work so hard?"

Huo An was also a little tired.

In order to attack the Chagatai Khanate, the 110,000 expeditionary force of the Han Empire used the most primitive pedestrian marches to forcibly cross the Tianshan Mountains!

The 110,000 expeditionary forces were commanded by some generals with forced marching and mountain marching characteristics to speed up the marching speed.

For example, the Tang general Gao Xianzhi has a huge bonus to the legion's mountain marching, which can increase the speed of the marching and reduce non-combat casualties.

"Although it is dangerous, in order to destroy the Chagatai Khanate and recover Alimali..." Xu Fengnian gasped, "It seems that someone on Chu Zimou's side is sick..."

Chutian sent the largest expeditionary force, with a population of 50,000. Because Chutian has the characteristic of "Fenglangjuxu", it can also reduce the negative effects of adverse terrain. Therefore, until now, the marching has only suffered losses of hundreds of people.

But Chu Tian was not in a good mood at this time because Xia Tianliang got sick.

Among the girls, Xia Tianliang has the weakest physique and is unable to withstand the difficult mountain march.

At this time, it was very deadly.

"Let me down..."

Xia Tian was in a daze and found Chu Tian carrying her on the mountain road, marching on the mountain road, his cheeks were hot.

"According to Huoan's inference, we can leave Wusun Road in about two or three days. No matter what, you can't die."

It is not difficult to march with someone on Chu Tian’s force, but Chu Tian did not expect that his force would be used in this place.

"Um."

Xia Tianliang leaned on Chu Tian’s back and fell asleep again in a daze.

"Miss Xia is okay?"

Huo Qing and Mulan walked behind with their war horses, a little worried.

It is obvious that Chu Tian attaches great importance to Miss Xia. If something happened when she was overturning the Tianshan Mountains, even if she conquered Alimari, Chu Tian thought that this expedition was a huge failure.

"Sister Xia, there should be nothing wrong..."

Mulan was also a little worried.

The Han army rested at the last fortress on Wusun Road.

There were only thirty Han soldiers in the fortress, who were loyal to the Western Regions Protector Huo'an, guarding the Wusun Road for Huo'an, and becoming night watchmen in the Tianshan Mountains.

But when they saw Huo'an, the Western Regions Protector, came, they burst into tears.

They also thought that the cities in the Western Regions had been captured by the Chagatai Khanate.

The Han army was able to rest here.

The space in the fortress was not large. Huoan took the initiative to give up the fortress because Chu Tian’s eldest wife was sick.

It's cool in summer and still has a high fever.

"Walking forward, you will enter the Ili River Valley, and then march for seven or eight hundred miles, and you will be able to reach Alimali. The next journey is relatively easy."

Huoan pointed to the simple map.

"I don't want to do this haunting terrain again in the future."

The situation of the old Qin Dynasty in Ranran is not very good. Climbing the Tianshan Mountains is also a torture for the old Qin Dynasty.

"As long as Alimari returns to our hands and has a teleportation array in the future, you can directly gather troops in Alimari City and then attack Central Asia."

"Originally, I planned to use Wusun Kingdom and Dayuan Kingdom as a base, divide the troops into two groups and occupy the entire Central Asia. Now Wusun Kingdom is controlled by Chagatai, and Dayuan Kingdom, I don't know what the situation is. Maybe the Yuezhi, that is, the Kushan Empire, occupied Dayuan Kingdom. In the future, the Dayuan Kingdom will be reconquered, and war will break out with the Kushan Empire..."

Huo An also had a headache.

"What's the situation with Chu Zimou?"

"It probably won't be very good. Don't have any trouble with his eldest wife..."

Xu Fengnian and Huo An mentioned this and were also a little worried.

The Shenji Camp, which is cool in summer, has a great effect in this expedition.

Moreover, if something happens, it will also be a huge blow to Chu Tian.

Li Xiuning pressed one hand on the hilt of the sword, looking at the Tianshan Mountains where the snow covered the mountain, feeling heavy.

She has had a relationship with Xia Tianliang for several years and doesn't want something to happen to her, but this time...

The Han army rested overnight in the last fortress and continued on the journey, and would not delay the expedition because one person became sick.

Now, 110,000 Han troops are between the Tianshan Mountains, and there is no teleportation array nearby. If you delay more one day, it means that the food and grass will be reduced and you must pass through the Wusun Road as soon as possible.

...

In the Yili River Valley Basin, Chagatai deployed a large number of scout cavalry to patrol the Wusun Road, Xiate Road and other Quekou to prevent the Han Empire's expeditionary forces from attacking.

Although it was unimaginable that the Han army chose to cross the Tianshan Mountains in the cold winter, it was better to be careful.

A Mongolian household led a cavalry to rest in a village below the Tianshan Mountains.

"Han army, the battle flag of the Han army!"

"They actually dare to march in the cold winter?!"

"Go to Alimari immediately and inform Da Khan!"

The hundreds of households in the Chagatai Khanate hurriedly summoned their cavalry to investigate!

At the gap at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, a Han army infantry appeared first and attacked the fortress garrisoned by the Mongolian cavalry!

Le Jin and Ju Yi led the lead in the Dead Warriors' attack!

The Han Empire Expeditionary Force knew that if they did not gain a foothold here as soon as possible, they would all be frozen to death in the Wusun Road!

Le Jin and Ju Yi sacrificed their lives. Under the cover of the powerful crossbow of the first-mounted dead soldiers, they attacked the fort with a team of Yan armor and drove out the defenders inside!

The Han army opened the road to get out of the mountain!

For a time, news of the Han Empire's Expeditionary Force appearing in the Ili River Valley spread throughout the Chagatai Khanate!

The expeditionary force stationed in Luntai actually crossed the Tianshan Mountains and attacked the Chagatai Khanate!
Chapter completed!
