"Hun Sen, don't run away." When Gao Xiang, the head of the Fourth Division and the First Regiment, saw the general in bright armor running on horseback, he also saw a big "Hong" on the banner of the soldiers who followed him. Knowing the identity of the other party, his eyes were bloodshot, and he swept forward with hatred, and then several soldiers in Phnom Penh who were closer were hit and fell to the ground, which immediately attracted another group of soldiers kneeling and surrendering. Potential.
"Bastard." He slapped the [-]th Squad's machine gun in his hand, Gao Xiang knew that he would not be able to catch up with Hun Sen without a horse to ride, and this great achievement would fall into the hands of the First World Cavalry Division.
With his legs unable to run the horse, Hun Sen turned around and let out a sigh of relief as the mercenaries had been left behind.Although the battle was defeated, he had saved his life no matter what, and he still had a chance to make a comeback.
"General, run, there are cavalry chasing us." Just when Hun Sen felt he could breathe a sigh of relief, the voice of a sharp-eyed soldier came from beside him.
Looking sideways towards the other side, there are indeed hundreds of war horses rushing towards him, constantly approaching him.Immediately, a feeling of creepiness enveloped his whole body. He clamped his legs hard, swiped the whip in his hand, and whipped it on the horse. Hun Sen sped up the speed again.
"Chase! It must be a big fish." Hu Boer, the leader of the third regiment, stared at the fleeing Hun Sen, with excitement and excitement flashing in his eyes.Behind him, two battalions of eight hundred horses followed him like a shadow.
The First Division of the World Cavalry not only has strong individual soldiers, but also has better sword skills than ordinary people, and even the speed of the horse is faster than other horses.In order to achieve such a speed, these war horses usually eat concentrated feed, which makes their fur all over their bodies shiny, and they run like a god.
After chasing and catching up, the distance between the two sides is constantly narrowing, and it is less than 300 meters.Hun Sen, who was running ahead, looked back more than once, and every time he made such an action, he would twitch his horsewhip vigorously in order to go faster.
But in front of the world's number one cavalry division with top equestrian skills, no matter how hard they tried, the distance between the two sides was still rapidly approaching.From 300 meters to 250 meters, to 200 meters...
"General, run quickly, we will stay and stop him, huh!" A soldier who had followed Hun Sen for many years and had been favored by him for many years saw that it would not be a problem to continue, so he took the initiative to stop and drew his sword to prepare for the battle.Beside him, there were more than a dozen personal soldiers who also stayed behind, just to give their general a chance to escape.
More than a dozen personal soldiers are also good hands. They follow Hun Sen's side. They usually eat very good food. Now it's time to show their strength. life and death.
Maybe they thought too highly of themselves, or maybe they underestimated the enemy too much. It was just a dozen cavalrymen, and it was ridiculous to want to stop the [-] knights of the First Cavalry Division of the World.When he saw the other party staying in the back from a distance, a mocking look flashed in Kupo'er's eyes, and then he reached out and took the strong bow on his back, and an arrow shot out through the air.
Horseback riding and archery, to the grassland people, is like plowing and farming in the Central Plains, it is a skill that everyone must master.Soldiers who can join the First Division of the World's Cavalry need to undergo a strict horse archery assessment. Whether it is shooting a fixed target or a moving target, it is a deep-rooted ability for them.It's just a dozen enemies, how could they stop them.
Bows and arrows shot from a long distance, one by one seemed to have eyes, and it was as if iron met a magnet, and the arrows stabbed the dozen or so soldiers steadily.It's a pity that they still wanted to stop the pursuers and buy time for the general to escape, but in fact they were just regarded as fixed targets, and they didn't even swing their knives. He fell to the ground.
Hun Sen, who was turning his head, saw this scene completely in his eyes, and couldn't help shivering all over his body. Who the hell is this?How could there be such exquisite archery skills, and how could he beat such an opponent?
At this moment, Hun Sen felt a great sense of terror in his heart. He suddenly realized that whether he himself or the entire Phnom Penh Dynasty knew too little about mercenaries.In the past, I just thought that the opponent had very advanced firearms, but now, the opponent's cavalry is so terrifying. With such an opponent in the Phnom Penh Dynasty, it should be a matter of time before they fail.
The remaining personal soldiers did not play a blocking role in the slightest, and the distance between the two sides was still getting closer.Just as the distance between the two sides was getting closer and approaching a stone's throw, the opportunity appeared again in front of Hun Sen and found nearly a thousand infantry troops.They were the rear troops of the previous [-] troops. Because they were in an excellent position, they fled as soon as they realized that the situation was wrong. Now they were caught by Hun Sen.
Of course, at this time, Hun Sen has no intention of punishing them. These people are naturally good shields, scapegoats.
"You all, stand still for this general and fight back against the enemies behind you. They are not as numerous as you. If anyone dares to run again, he will be killed immediately." The instinct for survival made Hun Sen speed up again, and his shouts became more pronounced. anxious.
Thousands of Phnom Penh infantry who were running away with their heads down, heard Hun Sen's shout, and when they turned their heads and saw that it was the general chasing him, all of them had ugly expressions on their faces.According to the military law of the Phnom Penh Dynasty, fleeing in battle is completely different from being defeated in a war and being punished. It is the difference between life and death.
I thought that the battlefield was already in chaos, and no one should have noticed them. When the time comes, they will say that they were defeated on the battlefield, and who else will know?But now, being caught by the general and showing up, it's really hard to explain.
"What do you look at, as long as you block the pursuers behind you for a quarter of an hour, you will all be meritorious ministers, and you can go to this general to receive rewards later." After being a general for so many years, the psychology of the soldiers below has long been influenced by him. After a thorough reading, he knew that what he said now could make these people work hard for him.
When Hun Sen shouted like this, it was equivalent to giving hope to these infantry. Considering that there are more than 1000 of them, it should not be difficult to block them for a quarter of an hour.The team of thousands of people stopped immediately and gave way to a passage, allowing Hun Sen to escape with a dozen of his own soldiers.Afterwards, they lay across the road, holding spears or knives one by one, as if they were about to fight the cavalrymen who were chasing them.
"Shoot the arrow." Seeing that the prey in his hand was about to flee, Huboer took the lead and shot with the bow, and the arrow flew straight to the chest of a soldier in gold.The soldier who was still called Huan just now, with a fighting spirit on his face, didn't even have a chance to make a move, so he was killed by an arrow.
At the same time, more bows and arrows flew out and plunged into one after another of the gold-edged infantry blocking the road ahead. One after another, the soldiers were shot down by the arrows, and their power was not overwhelming that of the musket fire.
A companion died in front of him like this, most of them were killed by an arrow. This scene frightened the soldiers in Phnom Penh behind. Only after the fight did I know how ridiculous the previous idea was.
"Back, back quickly." A commander who was among them saw how powerful these cavalrymen were, and knew that with their strength, they might not be able to stop the opponent at all. Forcibly staying here would only ruin innocent lives, so he retreated immediately. instructions.
Some people retreated because of this, and the newly organized defense line of the soldiers in Phnom Penh collapsed before it had any effect.And some soldiers who retreated slowly finally bumped into Huboer and the others who were chasing head-on, and saw a flash of swords, lights and swords, and dozens of heads flew into the air, this terrifying scene forced Many soldiers in Phnom Penh around kneeled and surrendered. Facing the unstoppable First Division of the World Cavalry, they were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered at any time, and they had no power to fight back.
Ignoring the terrified Phnom Penh soldiers who knelt down and begged to surrender, Hupoer led the cavalry forward and passed them, continuing to chase their target, General Hun Sen.
Hun Sen borrowed thousands of soldiers to form a human shield, fighting for a glimmer of life for himself. Just as he was about to catch his breath, a soldier beside him fell off the horse with a plop, which made him tremble all over. Just look back.
This sight scared his soul out of his body, and those cavalrymen who should have been left behind reappeared, not only that, they were within a stone's throw away from him.
"Ah! Help." At this moment, Hun Sen was indeed terrified. He didn't even think about surrendering. Instead, he yelled instinctively, and kept pulling his horse in panic. Want to run away.
The first arrow shot by Huboer behind him did not mean to take Hun Sen's life. Since it was a big fish, he certainly wanted to catch it alive.But when he saw that the opponent was still struggling before he died, and wanted to continue to escape, he saw that the opponent's horse was frightened and accelerated even more. He finally gave up his plan to capture him alive. Hun Sen shot in the back.
Chapter 926 Spanish Navy
The sound of breaking the air came from behind. If Hun Sen used to be alert, but now everyone else is going crazy, the horse has been irritated and is running wildly. There was a pain in the back, and then the energy and blood in the whole body were not smooth, the strength of the body began to be drained, and even the eyes became weak.
When "Save" was dying, Hun Sen did not forget to stretch out his arms in the direction of Phnom Penh City, and then he fell off his horse with a bang, and Hun Sen died.
Hun Sen died in battle, and the body was picked up by Hu Boer who came later, and he carried it on horseback, and the army returned triumphantly.This time Hubo'er killed happily, and he regained the feeling of galloping thousands of miles on the grassland undefeated, and all this was brought to him by the First Division of the World's Cavalry, and it was all brought to him by Yang Chendong.
In this battle, more than [-] enemies were killed, [-] were captured, and [-] escaped.With such a record, the combined losses of the Fourth Leng Feng Division and the First Tianxia Cavalry Division were less than a hundred casualties.
Yang Chendong, who came later, held a celebration meeting on this land. In front of the eight thousand auxiliary soldiers, eight thousand Lao troops, and hundreds of thousands of people who followed him, he faced the First Cavalry Division of the World and the Fourth Leng Feng. The teacher did a great job.With a wave of his hand, five carriages full of silver were pushed out, these were his rewards to the two divisions.
After chasing for tens of miles and killing Hun Sen, the head of Kuboer was praised by Yang Chendong, and was awarded a second-class personal merit and a gold medal.He also became the first knight in the First Division of the World Cavalry to receive this honor.
Hu Bo'er took the medal from Yang Chendong's hand with tears in her eyes, and then she kept giving speeches of thanks, starting from the fact that she was a surrendered general and a defeated general.For a person of his status, it is said that after Tuotuobuhua's death, it is difficult for him to have a bright future.But the mercenaries here don't look at your past at all, they only look at your current performance. Huboer has regained his second youth, and his deeds will soon spread in this land.
At the end of his speech, Kuboer also emphatically thanked his teacher Tian Hu.Because it was Tian Hu who first targeted Hun Sen at the earliest time, but gave himself the opportunity to chase the enemy and make meritorious deeds.Based on this one, as a subordinate, he is convinced.
Similarly, this incident also demonstrated Tian Hu's general style.A truly qualified general should be like Tian Hu, who knows how to give credit to his subordinates. In this way, he can also get credit and also receive the gratitude and loyalty of his subordinates.
The silver was distributed on the spot and sent to every meritorious soldier.This scene was clearly seen by other people. At this moment, not only the auxiliary soldiers and the Lao army looked envious, but also many young men from the Phnom Penh Dynasty who were mixed among the common people were also envious.
They already knew from Huboer's speech just now that this is a defeated general, and he has been defeated many times, and such a person can be reused, so what is the difference between them? As long as they work hard, they have the same chance At the moment, many people began to inquire whether the mercenaries were still recruiting, and they expressed their intention to join.
After Yang Er learned of this situation, he immediately reported to Yang Chendong, and then said with a look of admiration, "Master, you are so powerful, you defeated their country, not only do they not hate you, but they also want to join the army , to work for you."
"That's because I can give them what the Phnom Penh Dynasty couldn't give them before. Yang Er, you remember, the people will always be like this. They will be close to whoever treats them well. They don't have a long history and cultural heritage. , the national concept in their hearts is not very strong, as long as they can guarantee a good life for them in the future, they will not be our enemies, but will be used by us." Yang Chendong said with general feeling.
For a moment, he thought about the little Japan's attack on China during World War II.At that time, not only China was attacked, but many nearby countries were also attacked.But the facts have proved that only the Chinese are constantly resisting, and those small countries around them will surrender as soon as they are occupied. It is destined that we will not allow aliens to override us.
This is the pride of the Han people, and it is also the pride of Yang Chendong. What he has to do next is to continue and carry forward this pride, so as to make it even more glorious.
"Let's go, leave this place for the auxiliary soldiers and the people to clean up, and the main force will march towards Prey Veng City." With a wave of his big hand, the forward pace started again.
In Phnom Penh City, the news of Hun Sen's defeat and killing came, which brought huge damage and destruction to the capital like an earthquake.
The minds of some of the main combat factions began to waver, and some of the main peace factions gradually gained the upper hand.
After several battles, the 15 sailors of the Phnom Penh Dynasty were destroyed, and most were captured; the army lost 10 troops, and the rest, except for the 6 people who resisted the mercenary navy in the south, had only [-] horses left in the capital city.
This strength is not enough to defend the royal city. At this moment, the Phnom Penh Dynasty has fallen into an unprecedented crisis.
In the palace of the royal capital, King Boromo is yelling, "When will the reinforcements from Siam and Ava arrive?"
"Your Majesty, the news has passed. They are protesting to Laos Province and preparing to send troops, but the flames of war came too suddenly, and they need time to prepare." Ding Dingwei, the left minister, seemed to be in a few days. Cang has a lot of talents, and he has hardly slept in the past few days. He needs to worry about all things such as conscription, deployment, and deployment of troops, and he even does everything by himself.
People say that when they are in use, they hate their hands. When a country is in life and death, it will also appear that there are very few people available and very few loyal people.
"Prepare to protest hahaha." Poromo laughed wildly and shook his head, "It's too late, too late."
With the attack of the mercenaries in front of them, it would take only ten days at most to kill the king's capital, and soon this place would also be caught in the flames of war.What's the point of the arrival of reinforcements after that? "Come here, quickly inform the Spanish ship, saying that we agreed to their previous request, but he must help us drive the mercenaries out."
"Your Majesty." Ding Dingwei was shocked when he heard the words, then raised his head, looked at Boromo with incredulous eyes and said, "Spain is also ambitious. Wedge a nail in the middle, and it will only slowly eat away at us in the future."
