The world of counterfeit magistrates competes in the world

Chapter 449

After this battle, the Chasha cavalry lost nearly 7000 troops, while the Western Expeditionary Army suffered very little loss.After sweeping the battlefield, a total of more than [-] intact Shasha war horses were obtained, and hundreds of wounded enemy cavalry were captured.

Soon, the [-] horses used to running in the desert were immediately assigned to the scouts.And these hundreds of captives, after some isolated interrogation, finally revealed the secret of Shasha Kingdom.

It turns out that the Shasha Kingdom has more than 20 people and only [-] soldiers and horses. The king's capital is built in an oasis called Buluobo, which is called Buluo City.Its royal family is aristocrats who migrated from the west decades ago, and finally established their own country in this uninhabited desert.Because it is located in a desert, apart from asking for tolls from passing business travelers, Chasha Kingdom took advantage of its convenient location to plunder neighboring countries in order to support the development of the country.Also because it is located in a harsh and harsh place, even the Xijin werewolves in their heyday had nothing to do with Shasha Kingdom, so they had to curb its expansion from the periphery and besiege it in this desert.

And the reason why he dared to kill the envoy of the Western Expeditionary Army this time was to provoke the army.It was because of the lessons learned by the werewolf of Xijin that he thought that the Western Expeditionary Army was helpless and did not dare to go deep into the desert, so the lord of the country wanted to kill the envoy as a warning to them.But things backfired, and the Western Expeditionary Army entered the desert in anger because the envoy was killed.The king had no choice but to recruit soldiers and horses with all his strength to deal with the Western Expeditionary Army, which is why there was a night attack this morning.And this night attack was to burn the supplies of the army and force the Western Expeditionary Army to retreat.

Regarding this, everyone was afraid for a while. If Hou Mingfeng hadn't insisted on strengthening vigilance every night and setting up traps, the previous night attack would be very likely to be succeeded by the enemy. Withdraw, there are not many people who can walk out of this desert.

Hou Mingfeng's face was also very ugly, and the murderous intent in his eyes became stronger. "The army continued to move forward and went straight to Bro City."

With the identification of the captives, the army walked more smoothly in the desert, and even found a small oasis, so that the army's drinking water could be replenished.

After walking for a few more days, no enemy came to harass me anymore, but the enemy's rangers were still wandering around.However, with the captured Shasha Warhorse, the scouts were even more at home in the desert, and quickly wiped out the surrounding rangers.

Facing the consequences of the night attack, Hu Richa, who escaped from the sky, regretted endlessly.Not only failed to burn the enemy's supplies, but took most of the cavalry.What made him even more frightened was that with the guidance of the captives, the speed of the enemy's march in the desert was significantly increased, and the direction of march was directed at Buro City.

At this time, the enemy army is only two hundred miles away from the city of Buluo. If they are allowed to approach the city, only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses will not be able to resist it at all.Gritting his teeth, Hu Richa quickly rushed forward with the remaining cavalry, and drove the people to throw obscene objects, killed livestock and war horses into the water on various oases they passed.Then let everyone leave this place and go to the capital to meet up.

Sure enough, when the army rushed to the next oasis, they suddenly found that this oasis had been soaked in all kinds of filth and could no longer be drunk.

Although everyone is not from Shasha country, seeing this precious oasis being destroyed in this way, they can't help feeling sorry, and secretly scolded the Shasha army for being cruel.Now that the oasis was destroyed, the army could no longer replenish water, so they had to hurry forward and rush to the next oasis.In order to prevent the oasis in front from being destroyed again, Meng Tong ordered Murong Tan to lead [-] cavalry to march forward with light armor and rush to the next oasis to prevent the enemy from destroying it.

Unfortunately, when Murong Tan rushed there, the water source here had already been polluted.

Murong Tan's face was livid, he checked the degree of decay of the corpses in the water, and quickly judged that the enemy army came here not long ago, and they must not have gone far.

So ten thousand cavalry set off immediately, chasing after the place where the enemy had disappeared.Finally, when the third oasis was about to be destroyed by Hu Richa, Murong Tan finally led his army to arrive, and the whole army rushed forward to kill Hu Richa.

When Hu Richa saw this, he couldn't help being shocked. At this time, after gathering the garrison in the oasis, the strength of his side had only recovered to about [-]. How could it be the opponent of Wanqi.Immediately, he didn't care about destroying the water source, and fled quickly with the cavalry.

After annihilating the remaining small group of enemy troops, Murong Tan didn't dare to pursue any more, and the whole army stayed here, waiting for the main army to come.

After two days, the Western Expeditionary Army finally arrived here, and after a hearty drink, they collected a large amount of water to prepare for the needs of the road ahead.

After a day of repairing, the army set off again, and the remaining 100 miles or more was only a few days.

At this time, the city of Buro was already heavily guarded, and a large number of civilians were conscripted into the army to assist in the defense of the city. As a result, the number of defenders in the city increased from 2 to 5 in a short period of time.But no one thinks that these 15 people can withstand the offensive of [-] enemy troops. Once the enemy troops approach the city, it is only a matter of time before the city is broken.

In the palace, the current King Chasha sitting on the throne is a middle-aged man with exquisite appearance and fair skin. Under his brown hair is a pair of light blue eyes, which are completely different from the usual brown eyes of the Western Regions.But at this moment, with a melancholy face and frowning, he listened carefully to the military information sent from ahead.

"My lords, the Western Expeditionary Army is only two hundred miles away from here, and they will reach the city of Buluo in a few days." King Shasha closed his eyes slightly, and asked wearily, "A few days ago, Hu Richa failed in the night attack. More than half of the tens of thousands of cavalry were lost. Now we only have [-] elite soldiers and [-] militiamen in Bro City, how can we resist the powerful enemy?"

As soon as this remark came out, all the officials below were silent.King Shasha was not surprised by this, now that a powerful enemy is in front of him, and the country is about to be overthrown.Now that the enemy army has broken through the long yellow sand, the geographical advantages and dangers that the Shasha Kingdom relies on will no longer be effective.As long as the soldiers approach the city, how can this simple city defense of Buluo be able to defend against the strong attack of the army?Asking at this time is just in case.

Just as King Shasha was disappointed, a voice sounded from the hall, "Your Majesty, now that the enemy is strong and we are weak, we must not fight with all our strength. The only solution for now is to seek peace."

King Shasha suddenly opened his eyes, with a hint of expectation in his eyes, but after thinking about it again, he couldn't help asking anxiously: "But, Prime Minister Bo'an, this king was too reckless before and killed their envoy. Is it still acceptable?"

Hearing this, Bo'an's gray beard trembled slightly, and he suppressed the curse, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, if you want to appease the anger of the Western Expeditionary Army, you must completely submit to them and accept the legitimacy of their rule over the Western Regions. At the same time ,Simultaneously...."

"At the same time what?" King Shasha was already prepared to submit to the opponent, but he was not too repulsed by it.But listening to him hesitating, he seemed to be in a dilemma, so he couldn't help but snorted coldly.

"I also ask Your Majesty to forgive me." Bo'an knelt on the ground in fear and said tremblingly, "In order to appease the other party's anger, His Majesty must personally go to the enemy camp to make amends and ask for the other party's forgiveness. Only in this way can... .”

"Enough!" King Shasha slapped his palm on the throne, his face was livid with anger, and he stared at Bo'an. "This king will never be subject to such shame and humiliation. If they want to fight, let's fight over there."

"Your Majesty, please think again." Bo'an no longer cared about his own safety, prostrated himself on the ground, and pleaded: "Your Majesty, for the safety of the country, for the life and death of the people, and even more for the survival of the royal family, don't be arrogant. "

"Presumptuous, you old dog, dare to disobey this king, come, someone, put Bo'an in prison, and deal with it after this battle."

"Your Majesty, the old minister is loyal and has absolutely no intention of disobedience. Please think again, Your Majesty!" Bo'an was dragged out by the guards, and let out bursts of mournful howls along the way.

Seeing this, all the officials were trembling and dared not raise any objections.

Panting, King Shasha looked at the distant figure, turned his eyes coldly back to everyone, and said sinisterly: "Do you have anything else you want to say?"

All the ministers were silent.

"Very well, let's get the army ready for war. This king will fight the enemy to the end." King Shasha swept away his previous slump, his eyes full of fighting spirit.
