Lord of Riders

Chapter 175: Stalemate

"You cowards, how come back to the castle, come out with the courage to fight!" Turuk led a team of cavalry, shouting to the defenders of the Shao Ming Kingdom outside Turbuk Fort

"Your Majesty, Turuk is asking for battle" Cusa and others and Shao Yu stood on the head of the city, looking at Turuk's cavalry team of hundreds of people, and said

"Bandak, scare him" Shao Yu smiled and said to Bandak

"What's your command?" Bandak asked

"Shoot them, the lord, and don't hurt his life" Shao Yu said

"Okay, your majesty wait a minute" Bandak agreed, smiling

Bandak received the order, and then walked to the ballista erected at the head of the city. Two of Bandak’s attendants filled the ballistas with crossbow bolts nearly two meters long. This kind of light ballista from the Shao Ming Kingdom has a range of more than 600 meters. Turuk is now calling for a battle less than a hundred meters below the castle, and he can be hit with an ordinary light crossbow. However, in order to deter Turuk and the others, Bandak directly used the ballista.

Bandak arbitrarily fired the ballista, took aim, and aimed the target of the ballista at Turuk.

"Coward! Bastard!" Turuk's soldiers yelled and screamed together, without noticing the danger.

Bandak looked at Turuk, pulled the trigger, and the two-meter-long crossbow bolt shot towards Turuk with the click of the ballista.

In a short distance of tens of meters, the big crossbow arrow hit Turuk's shoulder. Although the crossbow arrow avoided the vital point, it directly hit Turuk and took him off the horse at once. The crossbow arrow penetrated Turuk's body and directly nailed him to the ground.

"Woo, woo, woo, ah~!" Turuk screamed, and the intense pain suddenly made him faint.

"Save Master Turuk!" The soldiers screamed and dismounted when seeing this, drew the large crossbow bolts that had pinned Turuk from the ground, and hurriedly dragged Turuk back to the military camp of the Kujit Khanate.

"Report! Marshal, it's okay, Lord Turuk was hit by the enemy's crossbow and passed out!" A soldier ran over to report to Earl Tuoju in a panic.

"What! How about it, is there any risk of life?" Count Tuoju immediately got up from his seat and asked with concern.

I have lost a lot of troops in this battle, and if another lord is here, it will be difficult to explain myself when he goes back.

"We didn't hit the key point, Marshal, but the crossbow arrow was so big that the army doctor in the barracks couldn't take him out. It is recommended to send him to the capital war doctor for treatment!" the soldier reported.

"Okay, okay, I see, send a team of soldiers to **** Lord Turuk to the capital for treatment. Don't delay." Count Tuoju was relieved after hearing this, and ordered.

The soldiers below did not dare to delay, and immediately followed suit.

"You guys tell me, is there any good way?" Count Tuoju asked the lords.

"The Kingdom of Shao Ming is good at defensive warfare. If they did not occupy Fort Turbuk, we could easily defeat them by virtue of our military advantage. But now they have captured Fort Turbuk first, unless a large number of troops are invested in the city. Otherwise, it’s very difficult to capture Turbuk Castle easily, so why don’t we withdraw,” a lord said

"The Shao Ming Kingdom is getting stronger and stronger. If they can't beat them this time, they will continue to eat our land!" said Duju Earl.

"The marshal decides!" the lords replied

The Earl Drago was in a dilemma. He didn't intend to withdraw his troops for a while, and at the same time he didn't launch an attack. The Khergit Khanate is now in a disadvantaged position in the war at Fort Turbuk. The Earl of Drag is here to stand still. At the same time, after thinking about it, he writes a report to the Sega Khan, reporting the situation of the war, and at the same time Ask Saiga Khan to order the withdrawal of troops. Because under the current situation, the Kujit Khanate can only make more fearless sacrifices to continue fighting. No matter how many soldiers die, it will be difficult to take the fat of Turbuk Fort from Shao Yu’s wolf mouth. Snatched it back.

There were more than 3,000 casualties in Shao Yu's army, not too much. There were a large number of medical teams accompanying the army for rescue, so more than a thousand soldiers died in the battle. Shao Yu allocated a grant of 30,000 dinars. The deceased was placed. Now that the battle situation has slowly stabilized, it is difficult for the Kujit Khanate to pose any threat to the Shao Ming Kingdom's rule in Turbuk Fort.

The two armies looked at the distance peacefully. The commander-in-chief of the two armies knows that the battle is divided, and what is waiting is the next negotiation, and then the two countries will return to a peaceful situation.

The sun gradually set, and the two armies had another day of peaceful coexistence. Shao Yu walked to the top of the city and Ao Deng had been patrolling the city. As a new member of the Shao Ming Kingdom, Ao Deng's performance can be said to be very active. Fight the enemy bravely and take the initiative to supervise and guard the castle.

"How about it, General Ao Deng, is there anything abnormal?" Shao Yu walked to Ao Deng and asked calmly.

"Your Majesty!" Ao Deng hurriedly called when Shao Yu came over.

"No problem, right?" Shao Yu smiled

"No, your majesty, everything is normal" Ao Deng replied

"Well, do you regret going to our Shao Ming Kingdom?" Shao Yu nodded and asked Ao Deng

"Your Majesty considers me so highly, I will definitely repay me with death!" Ao Deng replied

"You are so brave and good at fighting, why didn't you invest in Kujit Khan and serve for Saiga Khan? With your ability, after a long time, you can also be a little lord" Shao Yu nodded with satisfaction, and then asked

"Many of the lords reused by Sega Khan are treacherous villains, I disdain to be with them," Ao Deng replied

"Do you see if we can win this battle?" Shao Yu then asked

"The Kujit Khanate is now weak and the army's combat effectiveness is low. Although there are more soldiers than us, there is no chance of winning at all," Oden replied

"Yeah" Shao Yu smiled and nodded. He originally felt that Ao Deng was a warrior~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but now it seems that he is also an upright and intelligent man.

"Yes, you will be responsible for the management of the residents of these tribes in the Turbuk area from now on. Your fief will be distributed when I return to Aichamore. From now on, you will be my vassal." Shao Yu told Ao Den said

"Vassal?" Ao Deng asked happily.

"Well, that's right! But our Shao Ming Kingdom is different from other countries. The vassals are responsible for the affairs of the kingdom, but they do not have the power to manage the fief. The citizens of the fief are also independent of the lords. The citizens belong only to the country. Belongs to any lord, you have to know these, your income is the production of the fief. Can you accept it?" Shao Yu said

"All follow your majesty's arrangements!" Ao Deng said excitedly

"But..." Ao Deng said hesitantly while happy

"What's the matter?" Shao Yu asked puzzledly

"Your Majesty knows that my uncle, Elder Agula, has far surpassed me in terms of prestige and resume. I am afraid that I will not be able to convince the people to manage the herdsmen," said Ao Deng.
