On the third night, Chen Hai and Han wendang led 3000 spear soldiers to clean up the battlefield of Shiyue gorge. After annihilating the elite of 15600 horse thieves, he detained nearly a thousand brave horse thieves and thousands of war horses, and rushed to the periphery of the magic Moon Lake to participate in the final siege of the magic moon stronghold.
Of course, a large number of horse thieves fled from Shiyue gorge, and Chen Hai didn''t have so many cavalry scattered to pursue, but there are two gates in the north and south of magic Moon Lake stronghold. This time, Chen Hai won''t give the horse thief leader any chance to escape. He incorporated thousands of horse thieves and more than 2000 strong slaves into the Ma Bu army. In the four directions of the magic Moon Lake stronghold, three thousand people teams were arranged outside the north and South stronghold gates, and one thousand people team was arranged on both sides. Taking the 600 elite cavalry led by fan Dachun as a maneuver, he surrounded the 800 step magic Moon Lake stronghold.
Chen Hai ordered more than a thousand bandits in the stronghold to surrender within three days, and there was no one left after three days.
This is also the usual practice of horse thieves.
There is a precedent that jinxiangling and heifalcon cliff were broken. Nearly two thousand horse thieves trapped in the magic Moon Lake no longer expect to stick to the reinforcements by virtue of the strong stronghold wall.
And they also knew that the soldiers and horses of the thief chieftains such as Kong Peng and Hu Junhu in Yequ mountain would have to wait for the reinforcements of the Western Qiang state, and it would be impossible to cross the desert of four or five thousand miles in a short time.
Although guhuoshan still has more than 4000 soldiers and horses, and it is only 600 miles away from the magic Moon Lake, the tragic defeat of Shiyue gorge makes the opportunity for guhuoshan soldiers and horses to send troops to help extremely slim.
However, the bandits also understood that after surrender, they had no chance to continue to command the original lineal soldiers and horses. If they were captured, they would inevitably be divided into the army of soldiers and horses or the cavalry under the command of fan Dachun. They were used to bullying and were unwilling to surrender easily at this time.
If you don''t want to defend or surrender, you can only break through.
The bandits of the magic Moon Lake were still too indecisive. When fan Dachun led the cavalry to hunt them down, the probability of success in breaking through the siege was much higher. At least half of the troops and horses could escape, but they had to wait until they were completely in a desperate situation before they thought of breaking through to Guhuo mountain. It was a little late.
This may also be a natural weakness.
The spear array can''t be pushed forward quickly. It is more like a hedgehog. In addition, the spear array should avoid the direct shooting of arrows at the head of the city and be more than four or five miles away from the magic mountain lake stronghold city. The gap between the square array and the square array is still huge. At this time, the main force really used to block the breakthrough of thieves is in addition to the more than 600 elite horses led by fan Dachun, There are also two thousand horsemen with swords, shields, halberds and crossbows.
Fan Dachun led the elite cavalry to intercept, and the two thousand horse infantry were responsible for encircling the flanks. After they entangled the breakout thieves, the spear array slowly pushed forward to encircle.
The last horsemen and horses rushed and killed repeatedly, but except for a few who broke out of the siege and left nearly 1000 bodies in the stronghold City, as soon as the three-day time limit came, more than 600 or 700 horsemen and hundreds of family members of the heads of the thieves who failed to break through the siege could only choose to surrender.
Fan Dachun and Deng tong''er once thought that their weak soldiers and horses could never capture the magic Moon Lake. Who could have thought that the time to conquer the magic Moon Lake was even shorter than that to conquer Jinxiang ridge and heifalcon cliff. Moreover, they wiped out nearly 5000 horse thieves before and after, and almost wiped out the remaining horse thieves in seven or eight stockaded villages near the magic Moon Lake.
One of the four Mingqiao strongmen in the magic Moon Lake broke through and escaped. The two were killed by Chen Hai and Ning chaner. One led the last 600 or 700 bandits to surrender.
More than 50 armed bandits in the spirit territory were killed in Shixia month. Seventeen people were killed inside and outside the magic Moon Lake stronghold. Only nine people succeeded in breaking through, and thirteen people were either subdued or captured.
The bandits didn''t expect that the magic Moon Lake was defeated so miserably. Before that, the horse thieves'' nests of seven or eight mountain strongholds around moved their family to the magic Moon Lake to avoid the edge of the soldiers and horses of the night Qushan mountain. In addition to a few people breaking through and fleeing with a few possessions, Chen Hai''s capture after occupying the magic Moon Lake was even much richer than that of the black mountain stronghold.
It is Ning chaner''s pleasure to count and capture. Only Ning chaner''s cruel means can make Zhu generals dare not hide anything. Chen Hai arranges Zhu soldiers and horses to enter the stronghold city for rest.
Fan Dachun and Deng tonger were full of confidence and wanted to attack guhuoshan while winning. However, Chen Hai knew that there were still serious deficiencies in the preparation and training of the horse infantry. After the generals were arrogant, it was inevitable to advance rashly. At this time, their troops and horses were not qualified to be too reckless.
Black Falcon cliff, Golden Elephant ridge and Ma Bu army were not sent to the battlefield. Shiyue gorge also used the invaders to underestimate the enemy to play the role of spear array to the utmost. At this time, the hasty attack on Guhuo mountain is far less likely to win than expected. After two fierce battles and the rapid march that lasted for several days, the horse infantry had a great physical consumption and needed to rest.
Standing on the wall of magic Moon Lake City, which is more than 156 meters high, Chen Hai, Deng tonger, fan Dachun and Han wendang will overlook the vast magic Moon Lake in the north and south.
There is a great rift valley between the two mountains, where springs flow. In the rift valley, it gathers like a magic pupil and covers an area of tens of thousands of mu. There are lakes overflowing from the southeast and southwest to form tortuous water. The river channel twists and turns and stretches like two huge arms. At the south foot of the two mountains, including two green mountains, an oasis with a radius of nearly 50 miles is bred.
Before being occupied by the horse thieves, the magic moon lake once had a tribal habitat, farming and animal husbandry. It also thrived and multiplied with forty or fifty thousand people. It was also a strong tribal force in the vast sand sea. However, when the tribal leaders were slaughtered, the remaining tribal people became slaves and were oppressed. The number of people fell sharply to six or seven thousand, and they were rescued today.
"Deng tong''er, fan is in charge of the family. You have been running for many years to restore Deng''s rule over Jingjue city in the south of Pinglu oasis," said Chen Hai, looking at Deng tong''er, whose cultivation has only recovered to 34%, "The Western Qiang state is dominated by Ye. No matter whether ye will be overthrown, whether Pinglu oasis will usher in a new owner, or no matter how much pressure is imposed by the outside world, the future leader of the Western Qiang state is unlikely to let the Jingjue cities in the South secede. Deng must fight. Even if I help you, the war will continue. How about you rebuild Jingjue city in the magic Moon Lake?"
"..." Chen Hai''s words caught Deng tonger off guard. He couldn''t react for a moment and didn''t know how to reply.
After Deng tong''er was captured, he also looked forward to the opportunity to restore Jingjue city in the future by helping Chen Hai subdue Lingying. However, he also knew that this opportunity was extremely slim, but he didn''t expect that Chen Hai could directly fulfill his expectation now. The territory of magic Moon Lake is not small, so he gathered the surrounding small tribes invaded by horse thieves to rule the city and stay together for generations.
"Fuck, you''ve taken advantage of it by old thief Deng." fan Dachun beat Deng tong''er on the shoulder without hiding his resentment.
When he raided the Heishan stronghold, fan Dachun''s mind was still thinking about robbing the property and running away, so as not to be killed by Kong Peng''s department and lose Qingqing''s life. However, it was only more than a month since he captured the Heishan stronghold, fan Dachun''s mind completely changed.
Even if Kong Peng and other thieves can eventually steal the Western Qiang country, the Western Qiang country will inevitably be in chaos, and the forces of the Ye royal family can not be completely wiped out by Kong Peng and other thieves. As long as tens of thousands of elite can escape into the vast desert and join hands with their two wings, they can still occupy the magic Moon Lake, Heishan and Guhuo mountain to resist the elimination of Kong Peng and other thieves.
Although the Western Qiang Kingdom supports 100000 troops, the desert terrain restricts the departure of the army. If they can have seven or eight thousand elite to defend a city, they are not afraid of Kong Peng leading 35000 troops to surround it.
Fan Dachun wanted to occupy the city''s autonomy in the magic Moon Lake. Unexpectedly, Chen Hai wanted to give the magic Moon Lake to Deng tong''er first.
Of course, fan Dachun was jealous, but he thought that Chen Hai''s future achievements would not be limited to this, so he was not in a hurry to enclose land and build the city at this time.
"Yes, it''s so cheap that boss fan is greedy, and boss Deng hesitates to * * * Mao." Han wendang is quite organized with Chen Hai, but his speech is still rude.
Deng tong''er naturally knew that this was a big pie, and Chen Hai would not let him go after he became the best city master. He would certainly give him soldiers and horses. But it was because the pie was too big and came too fast that Deng tong''er hesitated. He didn''t know what harsh conditions Chen Hai would have in the future.
"Deng tonger built Jingjue city here. On behalf of the great Yan Dynasty, I appointed you Jingjue Duwei and led the surrounding land for thousands of miles. But Deng Duwei, you are not old at this time. You will bring the beautiful wives and concubines of Hu Junhu and Kong Peng into the room and have a pile of children. Deng will have successors!" Chen Hai laughed.
Deng tonger is over 70 years old. Although he has passed the peak period of Mingqiao state and his spirit is about to go downhill, he is also able to have children. However, after listening to Chen Hai''s words, Deng tonger''s face flushed. It should not be or should not be.
"Old thief Deng, do you want to leave a little room for Kong Peng, Hu Junhu and other thieves in the future?" Han Wen asked angrily when he saw that such a great good thing fell on Deng tonger.
Fan Dachun knew that Chen Hai''s plan was very insidious. He forced Deng tonger to occupy the wives and concubines of Hu Junhu and Kong Peng, and completely put an end to the possibility of Deng tonger secretly communicating with thieves such as Hu Junhu and Kong Peng.
Deng tong''er also knew that things would be done perfectly. Only after Chen Hai confirmed that he was not half hearted, could he really pull out his troops to build a Jingjue City, blushing and saying: "I am old, and the wives and concubines of Hu Junhu and Kong Peng are both of tiger and wolf age. If I take them, I''m afraid I can''t cope with them. At this time, the national envoy gives me a generous reward. Deng is grateful and engraved in his heart. I forget that animals are not as good as animals, but my wife and concubine still ask fan Duwei and general han to choose first. There are a few crooked melons and dates left to reproduce Deng''s children."
"You''re going to drag us into the water!" Han Wen said when the ugly face was flushed with excitement, patted Deng tong''er on the shoulder, "you''re welcome, but don''t complain that I robbed your beautiful concubine in the future."
In the past, fan Dachun occupied Yequ mountain and kidnapped women as * * *, but the business trip was very young, and the kidnapped border women were black and ugly, which could only be used for temporary vent. There was no real income to raise in the house. Therefore, he had no wives and concubines with Han wendang and other leaders.
This time, we attacked the city and pulled out the stronghold all the way, especially the magic Moon Lake, and captured and detained hundreds of family members of seven or eight nearby strongholds. Many of them are the wives and daughters of thieves such as Kong Peng and Hu Junhu. They are all pretty. We can choose this time.
They were also worried that Chen Haizhi''s army was very strict, and they were strictly forbidden to rape * * women. Unexpectedly, they had the opportunity to marry into the house openly.
If they were not afraid of being too unstable, fan Dachun and Han Wen would run down the walled wall to choose American goods.
