Chapter 633 The Battle of Fork Loss (1)

The Fork Power was called Yanqi in ancient times, and it was translated as Heicheng in Chinese. The Yanqi Kingdom in history was also one of the powerful countries in the Western Regions. It had wars with the Central Plains dynasty many times. Later, a few years after the Tang Dynasty destroyed Gaochang, it also destroyed Yanqi. Since then, the name Yanqi has completely disappeared from history.

The Yanqi Kingdom had long been destroyed, and the Western Regions had disappeared in history, but the Western Regions were still there. After all, this is a must-pass place for exchanges between the East and the West, so there are still many cities on the road to this ancient capital, such as the fork force loss, which is the representative of it.

However, today's fork force lost the city, there was no such noise as the past, but there was only endless murder. Two completely different armies formed a camp, and the war was also triggered.

In the central army, Song Sheng also looked at the army from Central Asia in front of him with a serious face. He saw that the opponent was mainly cavalry, and the cavalry was holding bows and arrows in his hands and long swords on his waist. It was almost exactly the same as the cavalry of the Yuan people. In fact, this cavalry was mainly Mongolians, and there were also some Turkic and Persians.

Among the cavalry opposite, Harrier was also looking at the Ming army in front of him. What he didn't expect was that the Ming army was not mainly cavalry, but infantry was the central army. The cavalry was arranged on both wings, and infantry was divided into several types, including spearmen and shields in front, and behind were rows of musketeers.

Harrier is not unfamiliar with weapons like muskets. After all, they often use firearms. However, he did not expect that the Ming army would have equipped weapons like muskets on a large scale, and the style was quite excellent. He just didn't know how powerful it was. Among the cavalry on both wings, there were some unreal troops hidden, and he didn't know what it was.

Both sides met the elites of the Ming Dynasty and Timur's cavalry for the first time, so they were very cautious and did not rush to launch an attack. They were both observing each other's situation.

Speaking of which, the reason why the two sides met here at Fork Power Loss was mainly because Song Sheng searched for each other's traces, and finally found the cavalry near Fork Power Loss, so he led the army to come. As a result, both sides finally encountered the city at Fork Power Loss.

Harriel also regretted it at this time. As a vanguard, he had already opened up the Tianshan Pass and paved the way for the army, but he did not expect that the army behind him would change, and his grandfather Timur also fell ill and fell down.

When Hariler received the news that his grandfather had fallen ill, he even wanted to withdraw his troops immediately, but he was worried that he would ruin his grandfather's plan to fight the east, so he could only endure it secretly. As a result, although Timur's illness was cured, he ordered him to stand still and wait for the army to meet him next year.

Since the army did not come, Harriel was also very cautious. He led the army to hide in a valley at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains. They also brought sufficient supplies to survive the whole winter slowly.

However, 50,000 people stayed in the military camp. After a long time, there would definitely be problems. Even if there was enough supplies, it would not work. There was even a tragedy of camp roaring in the military camp before. So in this case, after discussing with his subordinates, Harrier decided to lead his troops out to move, and losing the fork force was their target.

Originally, according to Haril's plan, they would directly lose the fork force and loot the entire city. With the supplies and women in the city, they would also make the soldiers in the camp more at ease.

However, what Harrier did not expect was that he had just led the army to the outside of the Forkli Lost City and actually met the Ming army chasing him. So both sides set up military formations on the hem of the city. However, Harrier didn't know that the Ming army had been looking for him for a long time. This was not an encounter, but a pursuit battle.

There is no romance in the real battlefield at all, only naked blood and cruelty. Both sides know that the other party is their own mortal enemy and there is no possibility of reconciliation, so there is no nonsense before the war.

In the end, Harrier's patience was finally wiped out. After all, his main men were cavalry, and the cavalry was always an attacking army. So under Harrier's command, a cavalry on the left wing rushed towards the Ming army quickly, and he also wanted to use this to test the strength of the Ming army.

Facing the cavalry coming, Song Sheng immediately responded. The cavalry from the left wing also came out, and the cavalry from both sides met on the battlefield on the left. For a moment, the people were overturned and the battle was very tragic.

Haril's cavalry were mainly Mongolians, and the cavalry on Song Sheng's side were also Mongolians. When Lao Zhu attacked the grassland, he did not kill all the Mongols. In fact, in the later period, many Mongolians surrendered one after another, and the elite of these Mongolians were also incorporated into the Ming army. Many cavalrymen on the Ming border were found in Mongols.

However, although they are both Mongols, they have no feelings for the same race on the battlefield, and they only have the distinction between enemies and us. Both sides use the same tactics, first by shooting bows and arrows, and then by close combat, but no one has taken advantage of them. Both sides actually competed with equal strength.

"Strong enemy!" Haril's heart sank when he saw the cavalry fighting each other. Under the command of his grandfather Timur, the iron cavalry under his command galloped across Central Asia and West Asia, with one defeat and even won the more with less many times. However, the cavalry in front of him was as good as his own. No wonder his grandfather was so cautious in his expeditions in the east. The Ming Dynasty was indeed a powerful opponent.

However, the stronger the opponent was, the more excited Haril was. As Timur's favorite grandson, he continued Timur's command talent on the battlefield and his belligerent personality. Meeting such a strong opponent also inspired Haril's usefulness.

War is like shooting arrows. As long as you draw a bow, you will never look back. Haril, who inspired the fighting spirit, quickly ordered the entire army to be suppressed by 50,000 troops, and tens of thousands of cavalry rushed towards the Ming army like a landslide.

When Song Sheng saw the cavalry coming from the entire army, he suddenly sneered. He was waiting for this opportunity. After all, the other side's cavalry was dispatched just now, and he also responded with cavalry in order to paralyze the other side and hide his own strength. Now it is time for the other side to see the true strength of the Ming army.

"Arson prepare! Launch!" With Song Sheng's order, the artillery ambushed on both wings finally tore off the camouflage, pushed the cannon forward, and then ignited and fired.

I heard the loud noise of "boom boom boom boom" connected into a circle, and countless hot projectiles flew out of the muzzle, drew an arc in the air and fell into Harrier's cavalry. The powerful kinetic energy made the shells almost invincible, and plowed a flesh-and-blood trench on the ground.
