Chapter 1254 Ottoman Disintegration, 0 Hou Contends for Hegemony
This battle directly ruined the future of the Ottoman Empire.
The SS-level Generalissimo who protects the country died in battle, and among the top ten generals who protect the country, three died in battle, four were captured, and one was missing. Only two escaped and ascended to heaven. As the absolute main force of the Ottoman Empire, six of the eight Guards regiments were wiped out, and only two escaped from the battlefield at a terrible cost of reducing their personnel by more than 60%.
The pillar-like Xingyue Guards were hunted down and killed by Lu Bu, and were directly wiped out by the whole system.
After defeating the Ottoman Expeditionary Army, the Western Regions Legion did not stop there.
The Army of the Western Regions is divided into three divisions. The first division is dominated by the Yellow Turban Army, which is responsible for gathering the fleeing Ottoman soldiers and stabilizing the order in the Western Regions. The second group is divided into five groups, under the leadership of Zhang Yan, Xu Rong, Ma Chao, Tian Kai, and Wu Anguo, each governs two combat legions, and expands wildly to the small countries outside the Western Region.
As for Lu Bu, he personally led the remaining ten combat legions, and pursued frantically along the route of the Ottoman Expeditionary Army's rout.
This pursuit lasted for a full month, from the border of the Western Regions to the border of the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman Expeditionary Force was intercepted by Lu Bu just as they were about to enter the Ottoman mainland.
On the one hand, Lu Bu dispatched Zhang Liao to lead a team to stop the Ottoman side's response corps, and on the other hand, he himself led the army to start the final encirclement and suppression of the Ottoman expeditionary group.
The siege didn't last long, and the last surviving Ottoman expeditionary force had a serious coup. The aboriginal army, led by an S-rank aboriginal general, cleaned up the Ottoman players and then surrendered to Lu Bu.
As for the Ottoman emperor Eldold, he went offline not long after the decisive battle in the Western Regions broke out!
Now everyone knows that the Shang Ji Army has special means that can directly kill players. Eldold was very life-hungry. As soon as the Ottoman side showed signs of decline in the decisive battle in the Western Regions, Eldold decisively went offline to take refuge in order not to be caught and "killed" by the merchant army!
However, as a leader, if you are not online for a long time, there will definitely be big problems within the power!
The morale of the Ottoman Expeditionary Army almost collapsed after the decisive defeat. After a month of pursuit and escape, the Ottoman Expeditionary Army was like a bereaved dog, panicking all day long.
Finally, after Lu Bu caught up and surrounded them, an aboriginal general who had long been dissatisfied with Eldold's unfair treatment launched a coup, purged Eldold's direct descendants, and then led his army to surrender.
Annihilated the Ottoman expedition,
Lu Bu couldn't stop throwing.
He turned around and took the Ottoman expeditionary force that had just surrendered to join Zhang Liao's troops, and launched an attack on the Ottoman army that was responding to the expeditionary force.
The elite expeditionary army is not the opponent of Lu Bu Corps, let alone these second-line troops left behind? And the Ottoman Expeditionary Army, which had been beaten like a monkey, also vented its anger that had been suffocated for more than a month on the Ottoman Army, and beat them to pieces.
Immediately afterwards, the Lu Bu Corps brazenly stepped into the Ottoman Empire, with only ten combat legions as the core. On the one hand, they crazily attacked the city and plundered the land and wiped out the vital forces of the Ottoman Empire. On the other hand, they recruited a large number of Ottomans. Ottoman forces.
In the next six months, Ma Chao, Zhang Yan, Xu Rong and other left-behind troops completed their duties and led troops to support them. With more than a dozen direct-line combat legions as the core, Lv Bu started the journey of Ottoman destruction, supplemented by a large number of Ottoman troops.
By the beginning of the eleventh year of Chuping, except for the capital Istanbul and the surrounding areas of the Ottoman Empire, all other places in the Ottoman Empire had been raped by Lu Bu. Of course, the most important reason for his high efficiency is that he supported a lot of local warlord forces.
Every time a place is captured, the Ottoman native who surrendered first is appointed as the "Governor of XX". These governors govern all military and political affairs in the jurisdiction, except for the need to provide Lu Bu with money, personnel, equipment, and supplies. Outside, without any other restrictions, in his governor's district, he is a real emperor!
People are always ambitious. It is not a difficult choice to be a "loyal minister" under Eldold's command or a governor who dominates one side. Many ambitious guys started to secretly fight with Lu Bu before he passed. Lu Bu contacted in order to win the title of "Shouyi".
There was even a farce in which two Ottoman generals drew their swords at each other in a city in order to escape the qualification to surrender.
In this case, how does Eldold rely on to fight Lu Bu?
It is not that he did not organize a counterattack. Before the situation in the Ottoman Empire was completely out of control, he organized three large-scale decisive battles. Without exception, it ended in failure. The last time there was even a scene where the Ottoman army coach defected, which made Eldold vomit blood with anger.
In the past year, Lu Bu supported more than a hundred governors, large and small, on the territory of the Ottoman Empire. Among them, the large governor's control area can be as large as several counties, and the small one is only one county. However, regardless of the size of the Governor-General's District, these Governor-Generals are without exception, all of them have real power, and they have soldiers and horses under their command. They are all serious princes!
Eldold, who controls Istanbul, has long lost the prestige of the central government, and at best is just a large prince. Not to mention the aborigine princes, even the leaders of the player forces in the Austrian region ignored him. You must know that there are many strangers among the more than 100 governors!
In terms of the speed of surrender, even the aborigines can't catch up with the strangers!
These vassals professed their vassals to Shang Ji in China in name, and directly obeyed Lv Bu's orders, but in fact Lv Bu's control over them was not strong, and they relied on his invincible prestige to suppress these vassals.
Of course, some important strategic cities are directly controlled by Lv Bu's army and are under the direct administration of Lv Bu.
Doing so is also a helpless move. The distance between the mainland of China and the Ottoman Empire is too far. Shang Ji can only destroy the Ottoman Empire at best, but absolutely has no ability to occupy or control the Ottoman Empire in a short period of time.
Moreover, Shang Ji has not smoothed out the Huaxia District yet, and has no energy or ability to take care of the Ottoman Empire far away in the sky.
Occupy a few key areas, keep absorbing economic benefits, sit and watch the princes of the Ottoman Empire contend for hegemony, and occasionally play sideways as a referee, and continue to maintain balance until one day Shangji has the ability to completely occupy the entire Ottoman territory, and then use Thunder The momentum wiped out these princes.
This is the final attitude of the current merchants towards the Ottoman Empire.
If it weren't for the Ottoman Empire's life and death, and had to touch the tiger's butt, Shang Ji wouldn't bother to talk to the Ottoman Empire. In Shang Ji's plan, there will be no Ottoman's role within ten years, but who made Eldold's brains swell to the point where he wanted to take the Huaxia District for surgery, since he took the initiative to seek death, Shang Ji will fulfill him.
