Chapter 613 The Han Army Crossing the Tianshan Mountains

Ili River Valley, Ali Mari, and Temujin received bad news one after another.

"The heavy snow in Mobei froze to death hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep. The Jebe tribe who returned from Monan to Mobei froze to death tens of thousands."

"The Golden Horde was attacked by the Allied Forces of the Eastern European Grasslands. There are about 150,000 Eastern European Grassland Allied Forces!"

"The Persian Allied Forces aggressively attacked the Ilkhanate, claiming to have an army of 500,000 troops!"

"The Seljuk Sultan retreated to the royal city and defended desperately. Mengge, Ogedei, and Timur's cavalry are occupying the cities of the Seljuk Empire."

"Tell Wo Kuotai and Meng Ge not to attack every city, but only need to capture large cities with teleportation arrays and cities where supplies can be obtained."

"Khan, the Subotai tribe north of the Tianshan Mountains is being attacked by unidentified Han army cavalry. Master Subotai fought with them, causing an avalanche. The battle and avalanche resulted in the death of tens of thousands of cavalry!"

"The Expeditionary Army of the Han Empire in Luntai City is missing!"

News from all over the world reached Temujin in Alimari, and the five major civilizations made up their minds to wipe out the three major khanates that came.

The territories of the three major khanates overlap with the spheres of influence of the five major civilizations, and at the same time pose a threat to the five major civilizations, so the five major civilizations want to get rid of them quickly.

What made Temujin most vigilant was the disappearance of the expeditionary force of the Han Empire.

The expeditionary force of the Han Empire stationed in Luntai City still hadn't returned to the pass, and suddenly disappeared at this time, and the target may be the Chagatai Khanate.

The Han Empire has eliminated the Ogodei Khanate, and the Chagatai Khanate may be their next target.

"Let Jebe lead 100,000 cavalry and send them from Mobei to Ali Mali."

Temujin couldn't help worrying about the purpose of the Han Empire's expeditionary force.

He and Chagatai lost nearly half of their forces in the battle of Luntai, and needed a batch of supplies.

"In addition, try to move a group of people to Central Asia. Mobei cannot feed that many people. If they stay in Mobei, they will starve to death next year."

"Khan, do you need to brave the cold winter to move them here?"

"Mobei is no longer so safe. Distribute the population to four places. Chagatai, you will find that it is the best choice for our tribe. Gather troops from all over the place and come to Ali Mali, the disappearing Han Empire expedition Army, the goal is here."

Chagatai showed an expression of disbelief: "The expeditionary force of the Han Empire, they dare to cross the Tianshan Mountains and attack Ali Mali?"

"Don't underestimate them. Subotai has already encountered a crisis, Mu Huali, you go to assist Subotai in dealing with Wei Qing and Huo Qubing. If you can't win, move the population to the Chagatai Khanate, north of the Tianshan Mountains. It's not safe anymore."

Temujin had a very strong premonition.

Among the four warriors, Mu Huali, who was the most capable in commanding the army, was ordered by Temujin to lead the cavalry to support Subotai.

"Chagatai, step up patrols on the various mountain passes of the Tianshan Mountains. Once you find traces of the Han Empire's expeditionary force, report it immediately."

"The possible passages for the expeditionary forces of the Han Empire include Shater Road, Wusun Road, Qiuci Road, and North Tianshan Road..."

Chagatai spread out a parchment map. On this parchment map, various ancient roads of the Tianshan Mountains were marked in a criss-cross pattern.

Tien Shan Mountains,

It is extremely steep, but among these staggered mountains, there are still some mountain paths that can be marched.

"Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, who attacked Subutai, took the North Road of Tianshan Mountain, so the expeditionary force of the Han Empire may stagger with them and take the Wusun Road."

Temujin moved his finger over Wusun Dao.

The wind howled, Wusun said, the expeditionary force of the Han Empire was forcibly crossing the Tianshan Mountains.

Along the way of Wusun Road, you can also see fortresses and beacon towers that have been in disrepair for a long time.

In order to unite the Wusun Kingdom and deal with the Xiongnu, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty set up garrison fortresses and beacon towers with Shater Road and Wusun Road as the main military routes.

Originally these fortresses had been abandoned, but Huo An served as the protector of the Western Regions and needed to control the Ili River Valley, Tarim Basin, Junggar Basin, Dawan Kingdom and other places at the same time, and restored these fortifications, becoming the supply point for the Han Empire's expeditionary force to cross the Tianshan Mountains.

"It's hard to imagine that in the Han Dynasty, such a channel was already opened. Under such a harsh environment...the wisdom and courage of the ancients have to be admired."

Xu Fengnian led the horse, and the expeditionary force of the Han Empire had reached the end of Wusun Road and was about to enter the Yili River Valley.

"The area of ​​"Lord" has expanded, and the width of Wusun Road has also increased. Otherwise, it will be more difficult to march, let alone pass 110,000 soldiers. As long as we occupy Ali Mali and restore the teleportation array between Luntai and Ali Mali, In the future, there will be no need to cross the Tianshan Mountains. If Ali Mali was not occupied by the Chagatai Khanate, why would we have to work so hard."

Huo An was also a little tired.

The 110,000 expeditionary force of the Han Empire, in order to attack the Chagatai Khanate, used the most primitive march on foot and forcibly crossed the Tianshan Mountains!

The 110,000 expeditionary force was commanded by generals with the characteristics of forced march and mountain march to speed up the march.

For example, Tang general Gao Xianzhi has a great bonus to the legion's mountain march, which can increase the marching speed and reduce non-combat casualties.

"It's dangerous, but in order to destroy the Chagatai Khanate and regain Alimali..." Xu Fengnian gasped, "It seems that someone is sick at Chu Zimou..."

The expeditionary army sent by Chutian was the largest, with 50,000 people. Because Chutian has the characteristic of "seal the wolf and live in Xuxu", it can also reduce the negative effects of unfavorable terrain, so the march has only lost a few hundred people so far.

But Chu Tian is not in a good mood at this time, because Xia Liang is sick.

Among all the girls, Xia Liang has the weakest physique, unable to withstand the difficult mountain march.

At this time, it is very fatal.

"Put me down..."

Xia Liang was in a daze, and found that Chu Tian was carrying her on his back, marching on the mountain road, his cheeks were hot.

"According to Huo An's deduction, we can leave Wusun Road in about two or three days. No matter what, you can't die."

With Chutian's force, it is not difficult to march alone, but Chutian did not expect that his force would be used in this place.

"Um."

Xia Liang leaned on Chu Tian's back, and fell asleep again in a daze.

"Miss Xia, are you okay?"

Huo Qing and Hua Mulan led the horses and walked behind, a little worried.

Obviously, Chu Tian attached great importance to Miss Xia. If she had an accident while crossing the Tianshan Mountain, Chu Tian would think that this expedition was a huge failure even if Ali Mali was captured.

"Sister Xia, nothing will happen..."

Hua Mulan was also a little worried.

The Han army rested in the last garrison of Wusun Road.

There are only 30 Han soldiers in the fortress, who are loyal to Huo An, the guardian of the Western Regions, guard Wusun Road for Huo An, and become night watchmen in the Tianshan Mountains.

But when they saw Huo An, the guardian of the Western Regions, coming, they burst into tears.

They thought that all the cities in the Western Regions had been captured by the Chagatai Khanate.

The Han army was able to rest here.

There is not much room for the garrison, and Huo An took the initiative to give up the garrison because Chutian's eldest wife was ill.

The summer is cold and the fever is still high.

"Marching further, you will enter the Ili River Valley, and then march seven or eight hundred miles to reach Ali Mali. The next journey is relatively easy."

Huo An pointed to the crude map.

"This damn terrain, I don't want to do it again in the future."

The situation of Jiu Jiu Lao Qin is not very good, crossing the Tianshan Mountains is also a torture for Jiu Jiu Lao Qin.

"As long as Alimari returns to our hands, there will be a teleportation array in the future, and we can directly gather troops in Alimari City and then attack Central Asia."

"Originally, I planned to use Wusun Kingdom and Dawan Kingdom as bases, divide my troops into two groups, and occupy the entire Central Asia. Now Wusun Kingdom is under the control of Chagatai, and Dawan Kingdom, I don't know what's going on. The Guishuang Empire, that is, the Guishuang Empire, occupied the Dawan Kingdom. After reconquering the Dawan Kingdom, a war will break out with the Guishuang Empire..."

Huo An also had some headaches.

"How is Chu Zimou's situation?"

"It's probably not very good, his eldest wife should be safe..."

When Xu Fengnian and Huo An mentioned this matter, they were also a little worried.

Xialiang's Shenji Battalion will play a big role in this expedition.

Moreover, if something happens, it will be a huge blow to Chutian.

Li Xiuning put one hand on the hilt of the sword, looking at the Tianshan Mountains covered in heavy snow, with a heavy heart.

She has been with Xia Liang for several years, and she doesn't want anything to happen to her, but this time...

The Han army rested overnight in the last garrison and continued on the journey, and the expedition would not be delayed because of one person's illness.

Now, 110,000 Han troops are in between the Tianshan Mountains, and there is no teleportation array nearby. One more day's delay will mean less food and grass, and they must pass through Wusun Road as soon as possible.

...

In the Ili River Valley, Chagatai deployed a large number of scout cavalry to patrol Wusun Road, Shater Road and other gates to prevent the Han Empire's expeditionary forces from sneaking.

Although in Chagatai's view, it is unimaginable that the Han army chose to cross the Tianshan Mountains in the cold winter, but it is still best to be careful.

A Mongolian hundred household led cavalry to rest in a village below the Tianshan Mountains.

"Han army, the battle flag of the Han army!"

"They actually dare to march in the cold winter?!"

"Go to Ali Mali immediately and inform the Great Khan!"

Hundreds of households of the Chagatai Khanate hurriedly summoned their cavalry to investigate!

In the gap at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, a Han army infantry appeared first and attacked the fortress garrisoned by the Mongolian cavalry!

Le Jin and Ju Yi lead the deadly attack!

The expeditionary force of the Han Empire knew that if they didn't gain a firm foothold here as soon as possible, they would all be frozen to death in Wusun Dao!

Le Jin and Ju Yi risked their lives, and under the cover of Xiandeng's dead soldiers, they broke through the fortress with a team of Yanjia and drove out the defenders inside!

The Han army opened up the way out of the mountain!

For a time, the news that the expeditionary force of the Han Empire appeared in the Ili River Valley spread throughout the Chagatai Khanate!

The expeditionary army stationed in Luntai actually crossed the Tianshan Mountains and hit the Chagatai Khanate!

The Chagatai Khanate invaded the southern foot of the Tianshan Mountains where the Protectorate of the Western Regions was located, and this time, the Protectorate of the Western Regions retaliated with the expeditionary forces from the pass and invaded the Chagatai Khanate!
