Although they all have big goals, the first mover still has an advantage. When Sun Xiurong set out with the two camps of the Sword Ye Army, he would have almost no interference along the way, and he could move forward at the predetermined speed at full speed. Although the Uighurs also followed, they were one step behind.

They needed to detect the operation of the Shattered Ye Army before they decided on their own. This time, there was a gap of at least half a day. Coupled with the delay in the march (they had to be delayed when facing a great enemy like the Shattered Ye Army), the Shattered Ye Army was finally allowed to occupy the Mandu stronghold first, which made it suddenly encounter the Shattered Ye Army's plan in the wild fail.

But time is still on the Uighur side. According to their estimates, when the Suoye Army arrived in Mandula, its food and grass reserves were mostly less than a month.

So, when they approached Mandula and surrounded the Thunder Ye Army from all directions, in addition to strong attacks, they also had the option of siege.

The deepest part of Mandula is the desert center, far away from the land of the Sacred Ye Army, and more than a thousand miles away from the Minato. Even if they have reinforcements arrive, they are still powerless.

But this is how Sun Xiurong is so powerful. In winter, the Uighurs carry war horses and livestock also need a lot of grass to supply, even on their land.

What's more, their number is much larger than that of the Sui Ye Jun.

Therefore, time becomes a very delicate problem.

Strong attack became Ye Hu's only choice.

About ten miles north of Mandula, Ye Hu had already built a camp here. His 30,000 troops had surrounded the Zaiye Army from the north, west and east of the Zaiye Army camp.

Yue Dun's army, who rushed from the east, surrounded the Broken Ye Army from the south.

Another siege.

Both sides are very cautious.

Among the nine foreign troops brought by Ye Hu, Geluo, Basimi and the three divisions of Gas (the people who stayed in the Great Lakes area) obviously had the largest number of people, so they naturally became the vanguard of attack.

Unlike the Turks, the Uighur Khan embroidered a lion on the banner of the Great Khan (the origin of the Arslan Khan is compared with that, the male and Tuk Khan is the secondary Khan). Although there is no lion in the northern desert, it does not prevent them from hearing about it or being passed down from their ancestors.

Sun Xiurong's central army banner was still a golden flag made in accordance with the regulations of the Tang army. There was no way. In today's absence of a telephone number, if there was no point for positioning in a military camp with more than 10,000 people, the entire camp would be in chaos.

The golden flag is about two zhang high, the flag is about one zhang long and three zhang wide. It is made of two layers of silk cloth sewn. According to the military rules of the Tang Dynasty, generals above the harem can erect yellow flags, and the flags and feathers (serrated around the banner) are brown, symbolizing the earth of the Emperor and the Queen.

In the Tang Dynasty, there was obviously no yellow as a color used exclusively by the royal family, and other people were not allowed to use it well. The standard generals of the Emperor Tianhou Tu can also be adopted.

According to the Tang army regulations (actually Li Jing's regulations, and finally agreed upon), the middle of the banner was embroidered with the general's surname, and Sun Xiurong did the same. In the fierce north wind, all the flags were waving in the wind, and the big black "Sun" character can be seen far away.

In addition to the Sun word, there is a tiger gun with a smaller size and a cross-carriage of cannons under the word, showing the uniqueness of the Broken Ye Army.

The tiger gun is black and white, with a trace of blood on the crystal-clear blade. The cannon is black all over, but the muzzle is sprayed with fiery red flames.

The Uighur Khan's flag was naturally imitated by the Tang Dynasty's style, and its scale was similar to that of Sun Xiurong's big star. Except for the lion in the center, the flags were white.

White is the favorite color of the Uighurs today.

Once such a banner appears in the army, there is no possibility of impersonation. Just as the emperor's jade seal cannot be used randomly, in this world where regulations, rituals, and classes are concerned, who can use what is inviolable, and once it is a shocking event.

So, Sun Xiurong and Ye Hu both knew about the other party's existence.

Of course, for Sun Xiurong, a person from later generations, there are naturally not so many things to pay attention to. If he can use the flag to achieve the effect of seducing the enemy, he can also let Li Fei Shouyu dress up as him to do this.

But he also understood that if some things never happen, it would be nothing. Once there is a first time, there may be a second time...

So, just like people in this world, Sun Xiurong also firmly adhered to this regulation and never surpassed it.

The so-called camp of the Shattered Ye Army is a low wall made of soil filled with straw bags. This kind of defense can only be used after artillery, thunder, and strong crossbows. If it is still in the era of pure cold weapons, if there are truly strong soldiers, such a low wall can be broken in less than a day.

The low wall seemed to have become the symbol of the Broken Ye Jun.

But the Uighurs were not completely unprepared. Although the people of Geluo, Basimi, and the people of Jiegas were all cannon fodder, cannon fodder was also resources after all, and it was a pity that they had consumed them all in vain.

At this time, most of the nine surnames inside and outside the Uighurs were from Tielle, Tielle, also known as Gaoche. In this world, the nations that can make wheels are not simple. The Uighurs are the best. With the emergence of the Thunder and the Fire of the Thunder and Earth, how to resist their thunder and fire became the top priority of all tribes.

So, in Sun Xiurong's telescope, a shield car similar to the Qing Dynasty appeared in this world in advance.

A large number of Geluo, Bashimi, and the soldiers of the haremgas pushed a thick shield chariot and slowly approached the Thunder Ye Army camp!

“Woo…”

The long bronze horn rang.

After the bronze horn sounded, everyone in the Thunder Ye Army camp immediately entered a state of combat.

The so-called combat state is a state of tension, purging and silent. After discovering the enemy's strange shield car, the artillery of the Shattered Ye Army needs to enter the state as soon as possible. With the accuracy of the smoothbore cannon at this time, it is not easy to accurately hit an object that is not very large a few hundred meters away.

But before that, their crossbows can take the lead in attacking!

Seeing black things flying over the shield after another, it would be impossible to say that it would not be ruthless. However, these nine outer surnames, especially the lowest-ranking Geluo, Basimi, had no other choice in the three tribes of Gas.

After the Shattered Ye Army annihilated Tang and Geluo coalition forces in Lake Haraus, the three parts left in the Great Lake area became fish on the Uighur chopping board, especially the two parts of Geluo, Basimir. The former was severely damaged, while most of the latter moved to the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and could not compete with the Uighurs and could only surrender.

Although the Uighurs carried out slavery, unlike Tubo, slaves were not permanently slaves, but the only source of their escape from slavery was the battlefield. If they died in battle or gained military merits on the battlefield, they could be promoted to higher-level tribes among the nine outer surnames, such as Duolange and Bayegu.

If you have achieved great contributions, you can choose to join the nine inner tribes.

In the past, when the shamanism was implemented, if the oppression was too great, the slaves would rise up and resist from time to time, just like the Turks in the Forgetting Slave against the Rouran people, but now the Uighurs have obviously achieved results after implementing the Zoroastrian reincarnation system.

After Jabbar took over the power of the Zoroastrian religion in the Uighur Khanate, he naturally understood that he had formulated a set of regulations for the Yaoluoge family that fit their wishes, that is, the Yaoluoge family is the envoy of light on earth, and he has the right to represent the real envoy of light to decide the present and next life of ordinary believers.

Although the belief in Manichaeism is not very pious, it is only a matter of time before a complete transition to faith worship is made by almost everyone who is illiterate pastor.

Therefore, although they were frightened, under the temptation of the next life, some soldiers still pushed their shield chariots and tried desperately to approach the Thunder Ye Army camp!

As mentioned earlier, the 500-pound short-barrel cannon of the Thunder Ye Jun cannon can fire 20-pound iron bombs, but due to its initial speed, its ballistic drops by one meter when it flies about one hundred meters. Therefore, it is unrealistic to use shells pushed by black gunpowder to hit distant targets in a flat-firing manner.

The ten-pound thunder of the sky-shaking thunder launched by the crossbow cannon continued to explode over the group of shield cars, which eventually caused chaos in the three cannon fodders. Although the Uighur generals had already told them about the power of the Shattered Ye Army's "thunder and fire", it was not a demonic thing, but a weapon invented by some craftsmen. But it was better to see it than to see it. As soon as I saw this unprecedented explosion, about 30% of the soldiers gave up the shield cart and fled back.

It is naturally very tragic to wait for their fate. The nine cavalry outside the upper class who were under the formation immediately pursued and killed them, and their families will be slaves forever.

Yao Luo Ge, Yao Wu Ge, Ge Sa, and the four elements of the nine inner surnames rule the other nine inner surnames, and the other nine inner surnames control the nine outer surnames, and the nine outer surnames are divided into several classes. The slave system of the Uighurs is not as simple and crude as imagined.

So, about 60% of the shield car continued to push forward!

When entering about three hundred meters, the artillery of the Shattered Ye Army finally became a little accurate. A whistling 20-pound iron bullet hit the front of the shield car. It immediately cracked it in half, and the instantaneous wood chips shot everywhere, killing the soldiers hiding behind it!

That's not all. The forward impact force brought by the iron bullet made the shield chariot that was split in half suddenly retreat, knocking down nearby soldiers on the spot. The broken shield chariot finally stopped after encountering several groups of soldiers. When it stopped, the soldiers nearby naturally lost their combat power!

The ballistics of the iron bomb immediately changed after encountering resistance. The trajectory that had fallen quickly to the ground became upward again. After flying up for a short distance, it went downward, and then bounced up again when it landed on the ground, causing another wave of killing!

But such a scene is only a few after all, and only 10% of the shield cars with accurate cross-sections of about two meters away from 300 meters are at most.

However, this made the three soldiers who insisted on moving forward hesitate. After seeing the tragic situation of being injured by iron bullets, wood chips and killing their companions, they did not care about the Uighur cavalry behind them, and shouted and ran backwards.

At the same time, with the crossbow cannon, a large number of crossbow arrows fell in the Shattered Ye Army. In the end, 30% of them arrived in front of the Shattered Ye Army’s low wall with a shield cart!

This time, Ye Hu also attacked the north side of the camp's low walls on both sides of the river. About one thousand people were invested in front of each low wall. In other words, three hundred and three soldiers successfully arrived at the low wall!

On the one hand, these people are lucky, but on the other hand, they are mostly determined. After successfully reaching the low wall, they immediately emerged from behind the shield cart and rushed up shouting the names of various gods!

If you are proficient in Turkic language, you will find that there are both the great gods in Manichaeism and one of the hundreds of great gods in Shamanism. When facing a critical moment of life and death, they still believe that the great gods can protect them!

"boom!!!"

Unfortunately, all the artillery had already been replaced with shotguns at this time, and the rain of bullets shot everywhere swept everything. In such a close situation, fifty one or two large leads were stuck to them, and some people were unfortunately caught by more than a dozen leads, and more than a dozen blood holes appeared on their bodies in an instant!

There was only one round of shotguns, and the battlefield was immediately quieted except for the whistling sound of the wind and the smell of gunpowder!

In about half an hour, Ye Hu's carefully prepared shield chariot attack array announced its disintegration!

Among the two thousand people, 60% were killed by the cavalry behind them, and only 30% of them died in the artillery shells of the Broken Leaf Army!

Ye Hu, who was watching the battle on the high platform in the middle of the camp, also stopped.
Chapter completed!
