Although Li Lu admired Kanasri very much, but this thing refused to surrender to Li Lu, and was bent on death, and finally Li Lu had no choice but to meet his request, but after Kanasri's death, Li Lu buried him, Kanasri deserved this honor, although he was an enemy........ after taking Sivas, Li Lu looked at the strategic place of Eastern Rome Marash (that is, Ka and Ramanmarash of the later Tuji Kingdom), after consulting with the generals, Li Lu decided to launch a surprise attack on the Eastern Roman army there.He decided to divide his troops into three routes, with Lieutenant General Pei Xingjian, commander of the 11th Army, who put forward the battle plan, leading the army to cross the Sangarius River at a place more than ten miles north of Marash, and then march south towards Marash, and the second route was to cross the river at a ferry three miles south of Marash, capture a bridge over a stream on the south side of Marash, and cut off the enemy's retreat route to the south; The third route consisted of two Persian divisions and two Tianzhu divisions, who were to attack Marash as one of the main siege forces.The three forces were scheduled to cross the Sangarius River at night, ready to move simultaneously in the early morning.Pei Xingjian in this time and space did not apprentice to Su Dingfang, but because he was born in Wenxi Pei and Li Lu had a good relationship, after he failed in the imperial examination, he came to the United Kingdom, which was still a subject country of the Tang Dynasty at that time, to look for opportunities.........
However, Pei Xingjian is Pei Xingjian, although he is older when he enters the school, but this does not prevent him from getting ahead in the British army, although he has not achieved the same level of official as Su Dingfang, who has passed away, but he is now in the military circles of the British Empire, and he can be regarded as the number one person...
Pei Xingjian attracted Li Lu's attention, and he had to start with a "fishing operation" he planned in Mashou Province (that is, Madagascar), when the British army fought against the natives in Mashou, the grain and grass were repeatedly robbed, and there were problems with logistics, which led to the attenuation of the front-line combat strength of the British army.He prepared 300 fake grain trucks, each of which hid five elite soldiers, and escorted the grain trucks to the old and weak soldiers, while the large army followed up not far away.Sure enough, the natives came to rob the grain, and the old and weak soldiers dispersed in a hurry.When the aborigines pulled the grain cart to a safe place, the ambush rushed out, slashed and killed, and the large army also arrived quickly, annihilating the indigenous army, after the war, Pei Xingjian attracted the attention of Li Lu, he personally commended Pei Xingjian, and transferred him back to the broken leaf from the Mashou front, and entered the National Defense University for further study....... after further study, Pei Xingjian went around to fight, for the Han people's conquest master to fight in the east and west, his conquest was like the first president of the National Defense University, one of the four famous marshals of the British army Su Dingfang is as mysterious, in the North African campaign, Pei Xingjian's department needed to cross the desert, encountered a sandstorm, and even the guide got lost, and he fell into a desperate situation when he saw the group.At this time, Pei Xingjian said that there was a water source nearby, and he was also doing a sacrificial ceremony.Something anti-materialistic happened: the sandstorm slowly stopped, and the sergeants walked a few hundred steps, and before them there was an oasis of abundant water and grass.Pei Xingjian personally commanded 10,000 people from the 37th Division of his 11th Army, and they took the artillery they attached to prepare to cross the river as soon as it was dark, hoping to reach the other side before noon.The boats were ready, but the weather was cold, the wind was strong, and the river was full of ice floe.Due to the difficulty and danger of crossing the river, by three o'clock in the morning, the artillery had not yet been transported to the riverbank.It was still nine miles from Marash, and it was impossible to reach it before dawn.If Jossar retreats, he may be spotted and attacked by the enemy during the retreat.Faced with the predicament, Pei Xingjian decisively ordered to continue to move forward and fight against the odds.When Pei Xingjian led his team to approach the enemy's outpost, hail and snow fell in the sky again.The blizzard certainly made the British march extremely difficult, but it also made everyone in the Eastern Roman army hide in their houses.The snow on the ground also diminished the chirping of the marching army and the rolling of the cannons.When the British vanguard approached the enemy post, Russell, the commander of the Eastern Roman army, came to patrol the outpost.When Lal saw that something was wrong, he cried out, "The enemy is coming!"
Hurry up!
Hurry up!
”Only then did his subordinates hastily resist.Lal thought it was just a small group of British troops, but unexpectedly, the British army rushed up in a black pressure!
By the time the two armies were firing, the British artillery had already unloaded the front vehicles and was ready for battle.Pei Xingjian always walked next to the cannon.He heard the rumbling of cannon on the other side of Marash and knew that two other groups had arrived.The attacks were carried out simultaneously as originally planned.The outpost of the Eastern Roman army was breached.The enemy retreated and returned fire with arrows from behind the house.The Eastern Roman army beat the drums of war and called for the enemy; The hussars sounded the alarm trumpet.The whole city of Marash was in a loud and thunderous state.Some of the Eastern Roman troops shot out indiscriminately from the windows of the barracks: others poured out in a mess and tried to form a formation in the streets; The Eastern Roman cavalry hurriedly mounted their horses and rushed in all directions, making the situation even more chaotic.General Pei Xingjian followed his troops to the end of the city street, riding side by side with Fu Lei, the commander of the artillery unit.When Fu Lei's cannon began to shoot, Pei Xingjian dismounted and fought with the gunner.He was in an exposed position, and his men repeatedly begged him to step back, but he refused.The Eastern Roman army set up two ballistae in the streets, forming a defensive position.This defensive position could have seriously hampered the British, but a part of the British vanguard rushed forward and drove away the enemy ballista attackers.Both officers who led the charge were wounded.When Pei Xingjian advanced towards the northern urban area of Marash, the second group of people was already approaching the southern end of the urban area.The light cavalry and infantry of the Eastern Roman Empire numbered about 5,000 soldiers, and they resisted stubbornly.When they learned that Pei Xingjian's troops were approaching from the front, and fearing that they would be surrounded by British troops, they fled over the bridge over the Asenpink Creek and fled along the banks of the Sangarius River towards the camp in Anman City.If Pei Xingjian's plan was fully realized, the retreat of the Roman army would be cut off by the Japanese Imperial Alliance.Unfortunately, the troops of the Imperial Allied Army were hampered by the ice on the river and were unable to cross the river.The Eastern Roman army Russell was clearly an incompetent commander.Before Pei Xingjian's troops had crossed the Sangarius River, the sound of alarms and the firing of bows and arrows sounded at the outpost of Marash.The entire garrison was immediately ordered to line up with loaded guns and stand by.Russell rushed to the outpost and found it in chaos, with several wounded.It turned out that a group of men had come out of the woods, opened fire on the sentries, and then immediately retreated.Russell, with two companies, walked through the woods and inspected the outposts, but he saw nothing, heard nothing, and found that everything was uneventful, so he went back.He was so light on the enemy that he mistakenly judged that the British were just a false shot.
