Chapter 237: Wutugu Chanyu's Ambition of Going South to the Central Plains



"Great Chanyu, this is not our fault! In a place like Feihu Ridge in Yuzhou, no one could have imagined such a massive flash flood, even with the heaviest rain!"

Prince Loufan looked helpless and aggrieved.

If we talk about injustice, even Subutai was not as wronged as him.

After all, Subuchi fell into the enemy's fire attack.

If a rocket attacks, there will be enough time to deal with it.

But the flood came in the middle of the night while the entire camp was fast asleep, and not many people could have predicted it.

Moreover, the flood came suddenly, and they were stationed near the Laishui River at Feihukou. One can imagine how devastating the blow they suffered.

It is already very difficult to gather half of the troops and return to Mo Nan!

"Great Chanyu, as a victim, I also agree very much with what Brother Loufan said."

"After Zhao Muyun defeated Subuchi at Feihu Ridge, he only sent 500 cavalrymen to Weizhou to bluff his troops, and then he stayed at Feihukou and built fortifications."

"We all thought he had so few troops that he wouldn't dare attack, but who knew he was actually building a dam in the mountains? He's truly unpredictable!"

After fighting with Zhao Muyun for more than half a year, King Zhelan had a deep understanding of this.

Over the past six months, he suffered heavy losses at the hands of Zhao Muyun and almost lost his wife and children.

If someone in Weizhou had not broken out of the city in the middle of the night and alarmed King Zhelan, he would probably have suffered the same miserable fate as King Loufan.

"You two are the most powerful figures on our grasslands. This Chanyu has high hopes for you. Regardless of the reason, you are defeated. This Chanyu hopes that you will learn a profound lesson."

After Chiluo Wutugu scolded him a few times, he didn't say much.

After all, his 5,000 guards and their commander Jochi were also killed in Feihu Ridge.

King Zhelan, King Loufan and he each lost 5,000 soldiers and horses in Weizhou.

Although these 15,000 soldiers were not many for the Great Khan of the grassland who had 200,000 soldiers under his command.

But this crushing defeat was a huge shame for him.

It has always been the case that the Northern Di people have been suppressing the Dayin people, but why is the situation reversed now?

"Lord Loufan, what are your thoughts on this battle? What do you think of the fighting capabilities of Zhao Muyun and the Dayin army?"

Chiluo Wutugu Chanyu looked at King Loufan with a gloomy expression.

At the beginning, he sent Jochi to test the combat effectiveness of Dayin's army, but he died during the test.

Subutai and his five thousand men were turned into roasted pigs at Feihu Ridge.

Therefore, Chiluo Wutugu Chanyu did not give up and asked Loufan Wang, the commander of ten thousand cavalrymen in the Mobei grassland, to try again.

Prince Loufan tried it more clearly.

In the battle of Feihukou, most of his Murong tribe were killed, and Murong Chunhua, the son of the tribe leader Murong Hu, was captured alive.

That same night, a flood hit, and King Loufan lost another four to five thousand people and fled in panic.

After two failures, Prince Loufan finally realized that Zhao Muyun's military tactics were unreliable.

The individual combat capabilities of the soldiers seem to be different from those of other Dayin troops.

"Great Chanyu, I'm not trying to boost others' morale and destroy my own prestige. From now on, when we go south to the Central Plains, it's best to avoid Weizhou and Shuozhou!" King Loufan swallowed his saliva.

Once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of ropes for ten years.

"However, even if we march south in large numbers, we must heavily guard against Zhao Muyun."

King Zhelan was immediately as if he had been stung, and said immediately, "The Great Chanyu must keep a close eye on him. Who knows if he will come to Longcheng to kill him!"

In the last battle of Shuozhou, Zhao Muyun only had a tenth of his troops to turn King Zhelan's territory upside down.

Now Zhao Muyun has the troops of four prefectures, nearly more than 10,000 people, and no one knows what big moves he will make.

“This is a must!”

Chiluo Wutugu Chanyu had naturally heard about King Zhelan's crystal being stolen. "However, he might be able to do that on the grasslands south of the Daqing Mountains, but he would never dare to come to Mobei!"

"At most, he would take advantage of the opportunity to send troops to seize our Yunzhou."

King Zhelan quickly said, "When that happens, please ask the Great Chanyu to send troops to help guard the city!"

"Are you still afraid of them on the grassland?" asked Chiluo Wutugu Chanyu.

"Great Chanyu, you may not know that Zhao Muyun has a cavalry unit of Wuhuan people. Their armor is strong and their weapons are very sharp. The bows they use have a range of over 200 steps!"

King Zhelan hurried to explain.

Ogeduo was killed in a battle with Zhao Muyun in Yinzhou. The soldiers who escaped back talked about the weapons and bows and arrows of the Yinzhou army.

Zhao Muyun's 550 cavalrymen defeated the 1,000 cavalrymen of Pushan Tiecong, a general under King Zhelan, outside the city of Weizhou.

After two battles, King Zhelan increasingly realized the complexity of Zhao Muyun's army.

The individual combat capability of Zhao Muyun's soldiers was so strong that it broke the previous balance where one Tartar could defeat five Dayin soldiers.

Especially the Yinzhou Army, cavalry and scouts under Zhao Muyun, each of them was strong and had endless energy.

This must be because Zhao Muyun used a special method for training.

If Zhao Yun trained the 10,000 soldiers under his command like this, King Zhelan's Xichuan grassland and Yunzhou would be in danger at any time.

Huyan Gu also hurriedly asked his followers to present the seized armor, broadswords, triangular spears and composite bows.

At first glance, these weapons seemed nothing special to Chiluo Wutugu Chanyu, but upon closer inspection, he was immediately horrified.

If these weapons become the standard weapons of Dayin soldiers, then what is the point of him talking about invading the Central Plains?

This equipment is so advanced.

The scimitars that cut the Tatars were like horizontal swords used to chop wood, the compound bows that ordinary people could easily pull, the three-edged spears that could not heal the wounds after stabbing people, and the plate armor that the Tatars' scimitars and bows could not penetrate.
