Chapter 2575: The second outbound pass won a complete victory, Kublai Khan cried and killed Boyan
Chapter 2572: The second time he went out to the frontier, Kublai Khan killed Boyan with tears
Boyan was worried that Longcheng would be broken. After continuous high-intensity marching, the army was already exhausted, and he thought he was self-righteous and relied on his military strength to start a war directly on Huo Qubing without any rest.
In contrast, Huo Qubing started a war without any command, and brought the "fast" of the fast attack method to the extreme, which was simply a blitzkrieg in the era of cold weapons.
Under the exhaustion of the Yuan and Mongolian Army, the command and operation of the army were much more sluggish than usual, but the Qin army on the opposite side was at its peak. How could it be possible to keep up with the Qin army''s blitzkrieg style?
Therefore, after Bo Yan''s series of wrong decisions, the Yuan army became more and more chaotic, and even reached the point where the generals could not command the army.
Boyan is not a mediocre person either. When things have developed to this point, he naturally knows how to make a choice. At worst, he can just go back to Longcheng directly.
Longcheng is only a hundred miles away from the battlefield, and the Yuan army is all cavalry, leaving some of the army with cut off the rear to delay time. With a retreat of hundreds of miles, how many Yuan army can the Qin army kill?
Boyan has already made preparations to abandon the car and keep some troops behind, but what he never expected was that Ogedei died in battle at this most critical moment.
Who is Ogedei? That was the right wise king of Yuan Meng. He had a very high prestige in Yuan Meng and his status was second only to Emperor Kublai Khan.
Such an important figure died in the battlefield, which had a great blow to the morale of the Yuan army and made the already chaotic front even more fragile.
At the critical moment when the army was about to collapse, Boyan fully demonstrated his excellent commander, who was calm in the face of crisis and calm in the face of changes.
He issued several correct orders in a row, not only temporarily stabilizing the panicked Yuan army, but also preparing to cut off the front army, leaving the 15,000 troops of the front army to cut off the rear, intending to stop the situation and abandon the car to protect the commander.
"Huo Qubing, although I can''t beat you, you can''t keep me." Boyan thought to himself.
At this time, all the Qin army''s troops were put into use. Although it caused great casualties to the Yuan army, due to the small number of Qin army and the limited range of attack, and Boyan made the correct arrangements, he failed to completely defeat the Yuan army and was unable to stop Boyan from escaping.
But at this moment, a cavalry suddenly appeared in the south, with nearly 10,000 people, and the temperament of the Qin Dynasty was the ten thousand Bingzhou wolf cavalry of Li Dingguo.
Originally, the Ten Thousand Wolf Cavalry of Li Dingguo was going to Chifeng City to support Zhang Liao, but Huo Qubing did not communicate with Zhang Liao and Yue Fei, so he directly led his army to attack the northern part of the Mo, which directly disrupted Zhang Liao''s deployment.
Yue Fei and Zhang Liao naturally knew the risks of Huo Qubing''s move.
But Yue Fei is far away in Shengle City, and even if he wants to support Huo Qubing, it is too late, and only Zhang Liao can barely catch up.
Although Huo Qubing did not inform Zhang Liao, he took the initiative to attack Mobei without authorization, but came to ask for support afterwards, which made Zhang Liao very embarrassed.
But as a comrade-in-arms, Zhang Liao was not vague at the critical moment and decisively stopped Li Dingguo''s troops who had been exposed, and asked him to lead his army to the north of Mobei to support Huo Qubing''s battle.
Zhang Liao originally wanted to treat Li Dingguo as a surprise soldier and participated in the battle at a critical moment in the Battle of Chifeng City. He was caught off guard when he was beaten, but he did not expect Kublai to be so cautious.
Seeing that the people outside Chifeng City were robbed by the Qin army, Kublai Khan still couldn''t sit still, but he still did not go out rashly. He sent a large number of spies to investigate military information for twenty rounds, and found traces of Li Dingguo''s marching.
Kublai Khan was defeated by Zhang Liao once, and he was already a frightened bird. Now that he learned that Zhang Liao hid another army and knew that it was a trap, he naturally did not dare to fight.
Kublai Khan retreated to avoid the war, and Li Dingguo was exposed again. He would not be able to play the role of a surprise soldier when he continued to stay in Chifeng City, so it would be better to send him to Mobei to support Huo Qubing.
Li Dingguo guessed that the Chifeng City area had only replenished tens of thousands of supplies. Before he could stay for two days, he received the transfer order from Zhang Liao, so he could only rush to Mobei. After all, the battle situation on Huo Qubing''s side changed too quickly. If he went slowly, he might not even be able to catch up.
After ten days of marching, Li Dingguo finally arrived at the battlefield in time.
At this time, the large Yuan army was preparing to retreat, and Huo Qubing''s army was temporarily entangled and unable to stop it.
Seeing this situation, Li Dingguo was unable to rest, so he directly commanded the tired ten thousand wolf cavalry and launched a charge towards the flanks of the Yuan army.
When Boyan saw another Qin army appear, his face turned pale for a short time. He knew that he had lost, and he was completely defeated, but even so, he would have to struggle to death.
The only way Boyan can think of now is to distribute some of his troops and drag Li Dingguo''s army as much as possible.
But Li Dingguo was not stupid either. Although the wolf cavalry under his command was an exhausted army, he was more physically energetic than the Yuan army that had fought for a long time. He stuck it on and got entangled with the Yuan army, and did not give Boyan a chance to escape at all.
Li Dingguo''s sudden participation in the war and entangled the Yuan army made it unable to withdraw its troops, which also caused the morale of the Yuan army to fall to the bottom.
Seeing this, Huo Qubing shouted excitedly: "Reinforcements, brothers, kill me."
"kill…"
The Qin army soldiers roared one after another, their morale was like a rainbow, and they were united, and the Yuan army was unable to resist.
Half an hour later, Boyan closed his eyes in despair and completely gave up struggling because the Yuan army had been defeated by the Qin army.
If it weren''t for Boyan, the Yuan army would have been defeated by the Qin army. Although Boyan delayed this process, the timely arrival of Li Dingguo became the last straw that defeated the camel.
Under the joint attack between Huo Qubing and Li Dingguo, Boyan''s nearly 80,000 troops were completely defeated and could no longer organize any effective resistance. They all fled to Longcheng in a panic, as if there was a glimmer of hope when they ran there.
After completely defeating the Yuan army, Huo Qubing fully utilized his strengths and followed the army to pursue, leaving no living, killing a large number of fleeing Yuan army cavalry.
Longcheng.
Yelu Xiuge, who was in charge of the left-behind, was completely shocked after receiving the 80,000 troops from the front line and was defeated by Huo Qubing''s army of less than 20,000 troops. He couldn''t believe that Boyan, who had always been good at fighting, still lost to Huo Qubing with absolute military strength.
Soon Yelu Xiuge made a decision that he had to send troops to meet Boyan''s defeated army, otherwise it would not be a good thing if the defeated army fled to Longcheng in a swarm, whether he opened the door or not.
If the city gate is opened, there are too many defeated soldiers who fled into the city and are prone to be congested at the city gate. Once the Qin army is allowed to seize the city, it will be completely finished.
If the door is not opened, the fleeing army will probably be eaten up by the Qin army, and Yelu Xiu Ge can no longer afford this responsibility.
After thinking about it, Yelu Xiuge had to go out of the city to meet the defeated army. Fortunately, Boyan and Ogedei did not transfer the defenders of Longcheng, so there are still 10,000 troops in Longcheng. Otherwise, Yelu Xiuge would have no troops even if he wanted to save him.
Yelu Xiu Ge left behind three thousand soldiers and horses, and after giving some advice to the deputy general, he led 7,000 cavalry out of the city. As a result, he only walked less than twenty miles and ran into a large number of panicked defeated troops.
Yelu Xiuge left behind a thousand soldiers and guided the defeated army to withdraw to the city, but he led 6,000 iron cavalry to prepare to block the pursuit of Qin army for Boyan. When Boyan saw Yelu Xiu Ge coming to pick him up, he was naturally overjoyed and wanted to stop others from helping Yelu Xiu Ge, but the fleeing Yuan army was already frightened. No matter how Boyan mobilized, not many people stayed, so he could only leave Yelu Xiu Ge alone to cut off the rear.
Huo Qubing did not expect that Yelu Xiu Ge, even though he knew that Boyan''s 80,000 troops were defeated, he still dared to lead six or seven thousand cavalry out of the city to meet Boyan. But since Yelu Xiu Ge has arrived, he can only defeat him.
Huo Qubing roughly counted the number of people, and more than 11,000 people were still ahead.
In other words, nearly 9,000 cavalry of Hezhou when they went out of the frontier had already died in battle, losing nearly half of their troops.
However, with the addition of 10,000 Bingzhou wolf cavalry from Li Dingguo, Huo Qubing still had only 20,000 iron cavalry in his hands.
After most of the day of fierce battle and pursuit, the Qin soldiers were also exhausted very much, but their morale was extremely high under the victory.
Faced with the 6,000 Yuan army in its prime, Huo Qubing and Li Dingguo cooperated and killed them in just one hour, and he also lost nearly two thousand iron cavalry.
The only regret is that Yelu Xiu Ge ran back early and escaped after seeing something bad.
After Huo Qubing eliminated the Yuan army behind Longcheng, he immediately rushed straight to Longcheng. However, due to the delay of a lot of time, most of the Yuan army fled outside had fled into the city.
When Boyan saw Yelu Xiu Ge who had cut off the rear, he fled back with only more than ten cavalry. He immediately realized that the army of the cut off the rear must have been wiped out. After welcoming him back to the city, he quickly closed the city gate, which also made Huo Qubing lose.
Huo Qubing failed to capture the city, so he could only retreat temporarily and continue to chase and kill the scattered defeated troops, while counting the results of the battle.
The next day, the Yuan army took the lead in counting, and the 72,000 troops before the war were only 30,000 left to escape back to Longcheng.
In other words, there were 42,000 troops killed in yesterday''s battle, and most of them died on the way to escape.
In addition to the six thousand troops behind, in other words, the Yuan army lost 48,000 cavalry, nearly 50,000 people in the battle yesterday.
After learning that so many people had been injured, Boyan was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted.
On the other hand, Huo Qubing was filled with joy. Because of Yelu Xiu Ge, although the Qin army had not done its best and took advantage of the situation to capture Longcheng, the results achieved were still great enough.
After five days of inventory, the Qin army completely rectified it.
In this battle, Huo Qubing defeated the 80,000 army of 80,000 troops with 15,000 iron cavalry in Hezhou and 10,000 Bingzhou wolf cavalry in Li Dingguo, and beheaded a total of 43,000, while the Qin army only suffered more than 6,000 casualties, which was a great victory.
After this battle, although the Qin army won a great victory, it was also damaged.
Nearly half of the 20,000 Hezhou troops suffered losses in the battle, and one-quarter of the remaining people were wounded, and they were no longer able to continue fighting.
Besides, even if the Qin army can still fight, the Yuan army will not dare to fight, so the Qin army will only waste food and grass when they continue to stay.
Huo Qubing knew this, but he still chose to stay. However, this time he did not make a contribution, but waited for Kublai Khan''s reaction.
In the battle of Longcheng, the Yuan army was defeated and nearly 50,000 soldiers were damaged. For Yuan Meng, it had reached the point of injury.
Kublai Khan almost fainted when he learned about it. After discussing with his advisers for a while, he decided not to continue like this.
The three Yuan and Mongolian armies were each injured, and Boyan''s journey was even more defeated, with a total of nearly 70,000 troops in Huo Qubing''s hands.
When Huo Qubing first went out of the frontier, there were only 20,000 troops. Can you believe that only 10,000 troops were lost, and the Yuan Meng army was destroyed?
Yuan Meng has been cultivating for so many years and finally recovered his vitality, but was defeated by Daqin again.
Kublai Khan was really afraid of being beaten. Now he just wanted to stop the loss in time, so he decided to give up Chifeng City and retreat to Mobei and no longer continue to fight with Daqin. It is only a little bit that he can retain some vitality for Yuan Meng.
Kublai Khan pretended to take over Zhang Liao''s letter of war, but in fact he gave up Chifeng City and led all his troops back to the north of the Mo River, which completely messed up Zhang Liao, who was waiting for the decisive battle.
Please, you obviously have more troops, but why did you take the initiative to abandon the city and flee?
Zhang Liao naturally did not want to let Kublai Khan go. After chasing him for thousands of miles, he completely lost the trace of Kublai Khan''s army. In order to prevent him from getting lost on the grassland, he had to return to Chifeng City first.
Shortly after Kublai Khan retreated, Huo Qubing and Murong Ke also took the initiative to withdraw their troops, and neither Boyan nor Yue Fei stopped them.
Yue Fei didn''t stop him because he knew he couldn''t stop him, while Boyan was purely because he didn''t dare. He was completely afraid of being beaten by Huo Qubing, and he had even reached the point of "talking about Huo Huo".
After Kublai Khan returned to Longcheng, he immediately put Boyan in prison and defeated him two consecutive games.
In the two battles between Wuhai and Longcheng, Boyan used more than 100,000 troops, but was defeated by Huo Qubing''s 30,000 troops, and nearly 70,000 were killed directly.
This is no longer a matter of incompetence, but very incompetent.
As Kublai Khan''s planner and his left and right hands, Boyan has always been loyal to Kublai Khan, and Kublai Khan does not want to hold him accountable.
But Yuan Meng lost too badly in this battle, and someone must be responsible for it.
As the chief general, who will not bear it?
Not long after, Kublai Khan executed his left and right hands in public on the grounds that Boyan was unable to command troops, resulting in the defeat of more than 100,000 Yuan Meng''s army, and also involved two other armies.
Kublai Khan was so sad that he executed Boyan, but what made him even more heartache and angry was that Or City was captured by Maodun.
