"Your Majesty, the number of soldiers and horses who have been captured or surrendered on their own initiative is as many as 500,000. It is difficult to count."

Fang Xuanling counted and counted the captured soldiers and horses. The number of enemies captured in the decisive battle in the river was unimaginable.

This is half a million troops!

As many as one million soldiers and horses of the Golden Family were killed and captured. In addition, Timur, who occupied the Indian Peninsula and established his own empire, basically left the Golden Family with only the Persian army and a small number of Mongolian and Turkic armies.

Therefore, the spoils of the decisive battle in Hezhong were not only the beaten land in the Hezhong area, but also changed the pattern, leading to the disintegration of the Golden Family.

The layout of "Lords" has become the Great Xia Dynasty, the Maritime Alliance, and the Crusades, while the divided Ilkhanate and Timurid Empire have become second-rate forces and can no longer be regarded as equal to the first three forces.

Hundreds of thousands of people died in the battle on the Indian Peninsula, and their vitality was severely damaged.

"The Second Western Expedition should rely on the power of the servant army as much as possible."

After Fang Xuanling collected the data, Chutian decided to change the composition of the Western Expeditionary Army during the second Western Expedition.

In the first Western Expedition, Chutian basically relied on the troops and horses of the Great Xia Dynasty.

The Western Region Army, the Tubo Army, the Monan Army, and the Southern Barbarian Army can also be regarded as the main troops, while the soldiers and horses in the Hezhong area and the Goryeo Kingdom are considered the servant armies.

After capturing the 500,000 troops of the Golden Family, it was equivalent to Chu Tian having a huge army of servants.

In addition, on the way to conquer the four Japanese islands, Chu Wu, Bai Qi, Le Yi and others captured a large number of samurai, ronin, and ashigaru, which were also a considerable number of servants.

There are also Dai Viet Kingdom, Siam Kingdom, and Chenla Kingdom. These kingdoms in the civilized area of ​​Southeast Asia are also the source of servant armies.

Therefore, during the second Western Expedition, Chutian had more sources of troops.

After Chutian returned to the Seljuk City, Chutian decided to return to Xiacheng and rest for a while.

Each legion needs time to replenish weapons, food, clothing, and troops.

It will take a certain amount of time to recruit 500,000 reduced soldiers.

Chu Tian had just entered the teleportation array. A woman had been waiting at the teleportation array in Xia City, but it was Xue Yue from the Intelligence Department: "Your Majesty, we have received news that Alexander captured the Syrian city of Damascus and sent troops to attack the Persian city of Baghdad. "

"Alexander...the Crusaders really took advantage of the situation."

Chu Tian's eyes flashed.

In the first Western Expedition, the conquest of Central Asia was already the limit. With the cold winter coming, Chutian could not take advantage of the good situation and risk attacking West Asia. If it alarmed the entire Crusaders, I am afraid that by then it would not be a conflict with the Golden Family, but the King of the entire Europe. They will all be alarmed.

Chutian was not willing to fight against the kings of the west until he was fully prepared.

No king in the West is Chutian's opponent. If the Crusaders are taken as a whole, then it is hard to say, especially since "Lord" has home and away games.

The strength of the attacking side should be several times that of the defending side. If both sides are evenly matched, the difficulty for the attacking side will rise suddenly.

The best way to go on an expedition is to support war with war, but the defender also has tactics to deal with the attacker's need to support war with war, which is to strengthen the wall and clear the field.

There are many castles and fortresses in Western Europe. Countries are unable to annex each other, mostly because it is time-consuming and laborious to conquer cities in Western Europe.

"Eighty red barbarian cannons are enough to deal with the Golden Family, but they are far from enough to attack medieval castles and fortresses in Europe..."

In the city of Baghdad of the Persian Empire, Alexander the Great of the Macedonian Empire personally conquered the city, and the holy commander Belisarius swept all the way and was invincible.

Hulagu, a member of the Golden Family who stayed behind, led his troops out of the city to fight Belisarius.

The war broke out in the western part of the Persian Empire. Mongolian cavalry and Persian cavalry fought fiercely with Macedonian, Byzantine, Ottoman, and Greek soldiers!

Alexander the Great took his secretary Eumenes and the philosopher Aristotle to observe the entire battlefield.

The companion cavalry, under the command of Alexander's close friend Hephaestion, protected Alexander.

Eumenes was responsible for commanding the Macedonian Silver Shield Army.

These two elite arms are the direct armies of Alexander.

In addition, the Greek civilization's Athenian and Spartan city-state armies were only as important to Alexander as the direct troops of the Kingdom of Macedonia.

Leonidas, the king of Sparta, had muscles like bronze and exuded a terrifying aura.

The three hundred Spartan warriors, with murderous eyes in their eyes, will march forward as long as Leonidas gives the order. Even if the enemy on the other side exceeds one hundred thousand, they will not hesitate to rush forward and fight the enemy to the death.

Spartans are high-level soldiers as soon as they reach adulthood. The three hundred Spartan warriors are elites selected from the Spartan heavy infantry and are extremely brave.

"King, the Spartan army, please go out to fight and destroy the Mongolian rule in Persia!"

Leonidas was so powerful that he asked Alexander to fight.

"There is no need for you to fight, Belisarius has already secured victory. Keep your strength and elites to deal with powerful enemies from the Far East for me in the future."

Alexander did not let three hundred Spartan warriors deal with Hulagu guarding the Persian Empire.

Leonidas and the three hundred Spartans were one of Alexander's trump cards against Chu Tian.

Even Alexander spent a lot of troops in order to conquer the Spartan city-state, so Alexander knew how terrifying this group of Spartans would be if they got angry.

However, the Spartans are not very good at strategy. Only in the hands of a real hero, the three hundred Spartan warriors and the Spartan heavy infantry recruited from the Spartan city-state will be put into perfect use.

And he, Alexander, is such an existence.

"Order, let Belisarius end the battle as soon as possible. The Romans are coming. If the Arabs hadn't contained the Romans, then the Romans would have definitely come to get a share of the pie. Persia is a treasure house."

Alexander had coveted the ancient land of Persia for a long time.

Persia was the land passage between east and west. Only by controlling Persia could the Macedonian Empire be qualified to be called a great empire.

As Alexander urged the end of the battle, a super-heavy armored cavalry appeared from the Macedonian coalition, kicking up billowing dust!

The earth was shaking. Belisarius, the "King of Bad Soldiers", commanded the armored holy cavalry of the Byzantine Empire and attacked Hulagu's Mongolian heavy cavalry!

Belisarius's "military power" has steadily surpassed Hulagu's head, so in Alexander's eyes, Belisarius is almost guaranteed to win.

The morale of the Mongolian and Persian armies plummeted due to the failure of the Battle of the River, and Hulagu was unable to improve their morale at all.

Not surprisingly, Belisarius's armored cavalry penetrated Hulagu's military town, and the Mongol and Persian coalition forces were defeated.
